GREENSBORO, N. C. (Special by wire)—The Bishop's Council, A. M. E. Zion Church and the Connecional Council here Friday was the most unproarious in the history of the church.
It adjourned finally in disorder. Trouble started late Friday afternoon when Bishop W. J. Walls called for the report of compiling com-

Bishop L. W. Kyle reported that the hundred minutes were printed for which eight hundred dollars had been on printing and about a hundred dollars paid on expenses only ones asked if the committee had assembled or seen the manuscript authorized him to proceed without them.
Dean R. E. Clement, of Livingstone College and recording secretary at the University, had not been called, although he was at Salisbury, only 28 miles from Winston. Bishop Clement and Walls pointed out the incidents and besides there were forty pages left out of the make-up.
Added $800,000
Bishop Kyle added six hundred thousand dollars more to his own personal report than he read at the event. He was not leading until it was done. Bishop Kyle charged that his critics were ambitious to excel, although he was unable to explain how his own business came far ahead after the conference, closed.
Bishop Leaves Chair
Bishop Alleye test the chair and stated the whole trouble was that a bishop had to tell there would continue to be "colored" minutes as long as any bishop compiled them. Upon motion by Bishop P. A. Waillet, he agreed to approve the financial report. Bishop Walls moved that the committee be assembled to amend and correct the minutes Prof. J. H. Johnson. Bishop J. W. Martin was unready.

It was pointed out that Bishop Kyle was paid eleven hundred dollars for printing the minutes and an annual conference of the denominational Conference which he had printed at the denominational publishing house were still unpaid for.
Bishop Kyle was paid a surplus of the hundred dollars from the amount approviate and from the sale of minutes and turned over the rest of the minutes to the publishing house. He was approved of his "that was approved."
No opportunity was given the house to vote on correcting the minutes, and the church is without a true minute.

DR. ALEXANDER DECLINES PLACE ON HOOVER COMMITTEE
HOOVER SHOULD SPEAK OUT SAYS DR. ALEXANDER
New Jerseyite Declines Place On Campaign Committee
WASHINGTON, D. C.
(Special)—Dr. W. G. Alexander of Orange, N. J., has declined a place on the Hoover Advisory Campaign Committee.
Dr. Alexander
Dissatisfaction with the personnel of the committee, its slight recognition of New Jersey and refusal to be an ornamental frisco or dumb figure head, are reasons cited.
Must Talk

nities of all kinds,

PETER H.
It is unfortunate that Negroes are to be considered as "special" Americans, but the will of the dormant majority so dictates. Any declaration, therefore, which does not contain special reference to these unfortunate citizens, offers but little consolation and no hope to them.
If Mr. Hoover is to counteract and dispel the prevailing and growing opinion that he is making an impossible will to support at the hands of the Negroes' aid, he must come out with some declaration which will renew the faith of Negroes in the Republican party. Dr. Alexander's statement, declining to serve on the Advisory Committee, is as follows:
"I regret that I am late in making request, but it came just as I was starting on my vacation, and I have not had an opportunity to answer before now. I must respectly decline to serve in the capacity designated in the your communication. I have received in the past too too much encouragement to unstalk symbal and sounding brass. I choose to be nothing rather than an ornamental figure."
Dumb Figure-head
"It is not to be understood, that I have sought or am seeking the aid of the campaign. If I do have any place in the campaign, it is to be a place where I can function for the accomplishment of some purpose,
"In addition to this, I am not in sympathy with the assignments that have been made, inconvenient to the New Jersey has been given so little consideration, and my distinction to serve is due more likely. We have been given a portion of the liberty to quote you a portion of a letter which was sent to Hon. Franklin Secretary of the General Commission from this state, under date of August 6th, 1928.
"It is a greetly Not Recognized. We have been told to us in this state to note that no recognition, whatever, has been accorded the constant and steadfast Republic of New Jersey. Of individuals, we have no complaint to make, against the persons selected. Most of them we perceive as wrong, and if we in this state have either been thoughtlessly or purposefully ignored, and this, despite the fact that allegiance to the party have been constant and undoubted; and in this last campaign the majority of the Colored voters in New Jersey were for Hoover, First last and al-
Top-Heavy
"It is not understandable, why the committee should be made top-heavy with persons who are from areas like Washington, the Volunteer, the Chairman is in resident of Washington, the Secretary registers from Alabama, and one of the members of the Executive Committee is obligated for the selection of the Chairman, is also from Washington. It cannot be felt that these selections have been made in addition to this. New York is given consideration for four places: namely, the Chairman of the Eastern Park, the Chairman of the Executive Committee, and the Chairman of the Advisory Committee. And New Jersey will undoubtedly have a bloody battle grounds of the campaign, has not been though of, and has been given no consideration.
"I was a Delegate at-Large to the recent Republican National Convention in Kansas City, and had the signal honor of being the first to be the big seven. Our delegation was pledged to Mr. Hoover, and I have no intention whatever of doing anything other than to uphold and upholster support, but I want it thoroughly understood, that I am entirely out of sympathy with the manner in which the campaign among Negroes has been planned."

BROOKLYN, N. Y. Two hours before he finished his two months, a temporary judge in the Federal Court here, Judge William H. Atwell of Texas, faced a $50,000 damage suit. The suit against the jurist, who is charged with bringing his Texas pension to New York, was instituted by F. R. Serri, a Brooklyn Italian attorney, whom Judge Atwell openly rebuted during the trial of a prohibition case several weeks ago. He was served with a summons as he was sent to bench. Basis of Suit In his complaint Serri called attention to remarks made by Judge Atwell at the close of the trial and in further testimony, "I consider Mrs. De Luca was very fortunate in the choice of an attorney to defend her. His recital of the bootleggers' game was astonishing to the Court, and I cannot understand how any reputable attorney could have had such first-hand imitation.
"Down in my country, had you made such an accusation against an officer of the law, the officer who got out of the court room, or; if he had sufficient control over himself, he would have waited until he got outside, and then to have taken the consequences."
**Group Protested**
At this same trial Judge Atwell, in commenting on evidence brought out at the trial that Mrs. De Luca lives in Brooklyn, resisted and resided stated that "whites and Negroes should not live together. This statement brought forth a storm of protests, and at a mass meeting called in Brooklyn resolutions de-merged the protesters and be sent back to Texas were unanimously adopted.

In G. O. P. Headquarters Reporters Find Many Things
Old And Young At Work—Men And Women—Georgia Day—Tuskegee—A Bill Billy.
WASHINGTON, D. C. (By L. K. McMillan.) — The "machinery" has been pretty well set up now in the national headquarters of the colored section of the Republican Campaign Committee down 'n in the Barr Building.
Upon visiting the headquarters last Saturday at least three different emotions were aroused almost at the same time; laughter, tears and fire.
The first two "people" saw were a shrewd "political" looking woman from the wilds of Georgia who was in the act of whispering some bright idea, into the ear of another old-timer whose name I did not learn. Despite the feebleness of their efforts they were enjoying being "in politics". Of course there were callers waiting to see the leader, John R. Hawkins, among them was Ben Davis, who was followed by a brother in white also from down in Georgia. For a while it seemed to be Georgia day in the headquarters.
"You are now in the publicity department of the colored section of the Republican Campaign Committee", proudly spoil- a member of the "publicity" staff. This gentleman was reared in South Carolina in Re-construction Days, but now he is helping to "run" the Republican Publicity Campaign. The vote-getter takes much pride in the use of the pronoun 'WE' in connection with present 'activities'.
Tuskegee
Tuskegee of yesterday and today is well represented. Dr. Emmett Scott is doubtless the "brain"; Holsey is secretary. What power these men would have should their candidate win!

Helping Out
A few young men are "helping out" with publicity, a few young women are taking dictation and one boy is awkwardly doing errands and directing the visitors.
The leading lady of the office is from Pittsburgh, Pa. She is friendly as most stout people are. She apparently wants the party to win Were she connected with a real cause she could work with telling effect.
John R. Hawkins, the department's "head", was busy Saturday morning, for him these are busy times anyway. He deserves sympathy for two reasons, other politicians are jealous of his position and have consequently said and done some unfair things; he ought also be pitted because of their pressure upon him to use old methods and threadbare tricks.
On The Opposite Side
On the opposite side of that first floor space is operated a restaurant and lunch room. In the door of this business stood a healthy colored girl, but she had on a waitress' uniform, that badge no colored can enter. On the floors above, the United States government rents some space for offices; both races are employed. In the hallway a red hill billy had his heels caked away after some strong winds over some areas. I took it that he was longing for election to be over so that the abnormal presence in one side of the first floor would disappear, so that nature could again take his course in driving cars. I found the doubt of Nordic exclusiveness on the important first floor of a big busy building.

He denied that he had any gun. Lee was shot by policeman Lester Parks, of the Second Precinct, and that he was with him at the time said that Lee fired at them after abandoning his auto. A careful search of the scene of the shooting failed to disclose any gun. Neither was there a gun. Neither was there an evidence of stray bullets could be found in the alley in which the shooting occurred.
These facts aroused the police department and Police chief Hesse ordered Inspector Robert Headly to make an investigation of the shooting. Lee said that he was on his way South to see his mother and brother. The policemen began chasing him at Georgia avenue and Webster street, northwest, when they noticed that his front and back tags did not correspond. Neither were issued to him. He tried to escape. At 15th and Glea street, northwest, Lee was in Glea and jumped from his car. It crashed into a garage. Lee fled down an alley, Taylor tripped and Parkes fired three shots.

NEW YORK.—(ANP.) — Shortly after concluding a performance Friday night at the Alhambra Theatre in this city, Lawrence Chenault, for the past score of years, one of the most popular dramatic stars, fell to the floor in a state of complete collapse.

It is said that the sudden death recently of Johnnie Woods, noted ventrilolist, who had roomed for years with Mr. Chenault, had much to do with the striken actor's poor health. Worry over the loss of his constant friend, companion, and coworker is said to have undernailed Mr. Chenault's vitality.

MARRIAGE NO DISGUISE FOR MAN WHO KILLED FIRST WIFE
KILLER WED AGAIN ARRESTED IN HARLEM
Boston Man Sought By Police Of North Since Last April FORGAVE WIFE ONCE
When She Erred The Second Time, He Killed Her
NEW YORK, (ANP.) — One of the most brutal murders ever perpretrated in Boston had its solution and finale here in the arrest of Frank Porterhouse who was apprehended Sunday.

But not until Sunday did they meet with any success. While in the neighborhood 707 West 101th Street had a defensive spied a man answering to Porterhouse's description. He immediately followed the suspect into the house, at 307 and placed him under arrest.

DEMOCRATIC LEAGUES IN TWO STATES
Organization's Start Work In
Nebraska And In Ohio
TROUBLE IN CLEVELAND
Move Made To Oust White
Leaders In Race Wards
NEW YORK.—Democratic
Leagues have started work in two
states and are being joined in
several others.
In Nebraska
OMAHA, Nebraska.—The Colored
League, Smith-for President Club,
has been formed here with head-
quarters at 1811 24th street.
Plans have been formulated to carry
on an active campaign in support
of the Democratic candidates
The officers are: Andrew Stuart, president; Harry Leland, vice-president; K. Hudson, 2nd vice-president; Mrs. George Wheeler, 3rd vice-president; Dr. John O. Woods, assistant secretary; W. R. Estell, recording secretary; J. A. Harris, treasurer; the Rev. J. C. Brewer, chairman of Publicity Committee.
In Ohio
COLUMBUS, Ohio—Negro Democrats and Independent voters have organized to wage an intensive campaign and have formed the "AI" League of Colored voters of Ohio.
Negroes from all sections of the State attended a recent meeting which was held to promote Governor Smith's candidacy, as well as support for the governor, who is considered favorable to the progress and advancement of the Colored people." Dr. Joseph L. Johnson, of this city, formerly U. S. Minister to Liberia, was elected president. Other officers chosen were: Dr. E. R. Pettifone Springfield, president, and Aerel R. Rendle, Rendle. The Executive Committee is composed of Dr. E. A. Colley, Cincinnati; John W. Johnson, Cleveland; A. E. Harris, Toledo; C. L. Brown, Columbus, and Dono Smith, Dayton. Trouble In Cleveland CLEVERITY County. The detection is growing among colored voters of Cuyahoga County. The latest cause for open revolt is to be the discovery that Negro Committeeemen representing the majority of voters in three city wards, are under the control of the governor, who, in almost, every instance, are not even a resident of the wards they assume to control
The wards involved are the 12th
17th and 19th. The argument
advanced is that where there is a pre-
ponderance of Negro voters, there
should be race leaders.

Action Taken When Judge Throws Out Report Of His Own Referee
N. A. A. C. P. WILL AID
Case Will Be Taken To Higher Court If Need Be
NEW YORK. — A new and startling development in the case of Ben Bess, imprisoned for thirteen years on the confessedly perjured testimony of a white woman, of the refusal of a South Carolina judge to abide by the report of a referee appointed in the case.
The referee was appointed when the woman recanted her confession, to determine whether the white woman had been the original trial had been obtained improperly by "bribery". The referee reported that there was no evidence of fraud and that therefore there was no reason for withdrawing the pardon which the Governor of South Carolina had accorded the wronged man.
N. J. Frederick, attorney of Columbia, S. C., in charge of the case now, reports to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. 69 Fifth avenue, that Judge W. I. Townsend of the Circuit Court has refused to abide by the findings of the referee and has refused to release Ben Bess. Judge Townsend's decision, if allowed to stand, would mean that Bess would have to serve thirty years—17 years more, besides the 13 he has already served—in the
penitentiary, despite the general feeling, supported by a sworn confession, that he was unjustly and wrongly convicted. Mr. Frederick to the N. A. A. G. P., "we are going to appeal the case to the Supreme Court of South Carolina, and if possible and necessary to the United States Court. Robert W. Brynall, acting secretary of the will, was A. A. G. P., here, says his wife will be asked to tender financial aid at its next meeting. Chief Justice T. P. Cothran of the South Carolina Supreme Court has issued an order for a writ of habeas corpus for Bess. Judge W. Brynall's order is returnable before him at Chambers in Greenville, September 26, or as soon thereafter as counsel can be heard, "to determine what shall be done and ordered." The writ was granted on application of A. L. King and N. J. Frederick, attorneys for Bess. It seems likely that Bess will be freed on charges lodged against Gov. Richards.
Two Want To Get Families Out Of Southern Inferno

HOWARD ANSW'RS TO MISS. BAR
JACKSON. Miss. (ANP.) — In answer to disbarment proceedings brought against him, Perry W. Howard, Republican National Committeeman, L. Moon, S. R. Redmond, S. D. Rendell, lawyers of this city, denied charges of federal offices, and other alleged irregularities, in chancery court here Monday.
The effort to bar these men grew out of the recent indictment of them and others at Billox on charges of selling United States offices in Mississippi.
Mir. Moon disclaimed any connection with the alleged payment for a post office plum at Mendon Hall. Miss. Moon further alleged that $650 received from Philadelphia, Mississippi, represented a belated campaign fund. Mir. Moon was returned to A. A. 500 surplus from Clinton. Moon declared, was a contribution in a local political fight.

One 60 Years Old
One of the men, 60 years old, got away with only his life, after two of his sons had been lynched, having been taken in custody by a sheriff on the promise that they would be "protected". They had been charged with no crime. The man's property, residence, buildings have been destroyed by fire. He is hopin' and driving that the remaining members of his family may be gotten away from the scene of the murder of his two sons.
Wrote Letter To Newspaper
The other case is that of a man threatened with lynching, because he dared to write a letter to a southern newspaper criticising the lynching which preceded the Democratic National Convention in Houston, Texas. A lynching in the man's own town immediately followed publication of the article, the mobbists, thinking the criticized against them, planned to write a defense. This man too escaped North Carolina seeking employment to earn enough to bring his family away from the section where they 'know the Negro.'

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER
October 29, 1912.
John E. Miliholl, the great humanitarian of New York, has just written a scorching letter to Booher T. Washington which I think is justified.
Booker T. severely condemned Jack Johnson at a public meeting in Detroit and by letter in New York, where he, dally paper, for marrying a white woman. Milholland says this:
"Dear Dr. Washington, I terrific strain you recently put upon the confidence of your friends, do you think it quite in keeping with the eternal fitness of things for you to assume to fix judgment."
"Considering the terrific strain you recently put upon the confidence of your friends, do you think it quite in keeping with the extent of your experience to assume to k Judge upon poor Jack Johnson? " "Is he not as much a victim of race prejudice as any man today? What is his Christian? For if he were not not black would a word be heard about the whole affair? On your place, it seems to me, ought to be the very last to assume the role that you felt called upon to play on this occasion." Milhooland is referring of course, to Booker T.'s escape in 1922, when he might be about the Jack Johnson affair because some of these days people in America will be able to marry whom they please without
"Is he not as much a victim of race prejudice as any man today within or without the boundaries of Christians? For if he were were not able to word have been heard about the whole affair?
"One in your place, it seems to me, ought to be the very last to assume the role that you felt called upon to play on this occasion.
Milholland is referring to a case. Booker T. S. Smith in New York. I think he might have kept quiet about the Jack Johnson affair because some of these days people in America will be able to marry whom they please without

Good For Dixie
Mr. Julian Harris in the Columbus, Georgia, "Inquirer-Sun" declares the defection of some southern democrats to Hoover is not bad for democracy. He reasons that democrats in the south are discovering there is considerable exaggeration in the so-called Negro menace—there are some things worse, for example "domination by the Vatican." So it happens that good democratic white women of the south have consented to serve as republican electors on a ticket named by the Ben Davis group. These bolting democrats, to be sure, are merely changing color prejudice for religious prejudice, yet the very change represents progress. They are out of one rut into another, but there is hope that eventually Dixie will learn that color and religion are not of great moment in themselves. To the contrary they constitute the myths by which the politicians dominate the ignorant and the bigoted. Mr. Smith's election would be a means of educating them still further.

Not Yet—But Soon
Resignations from the Hoover colored campaign committee continued this week. They included Dr. W. G. Alexander, of Orange, N. J.; Armond W. Scott, of Washington, D. C., and Chester A. Franklin, of Kansas City, Mo. Dr. John R. Hawkins, head of the committee, need not feel discouraged because his pile of declinations increases. It isn't his fault. It's the fault or the candidate he seeks to elect. Efficient Herbert Hoover, however successful at feeding refugees in Europe and flood sufferers in Mississippi, hasn't proved a howling success a politician. First he got off on the wrong foot by his lily-white activities of the Kansas City convention, and now

Efficient Herbert Hoover, however successful at feeding refugees in Europe and flood sufferers in Mississippi, hasn't proved a howling success as a politician. First he got off on the wrong foot by his lily-ly activities at the Kansas City convention, and now his managers have failed to provide the funds with which to conduct a proper campaign in the West.
A budget of $2,000 a week for the next nine weeks won't make a dent on the West, his advisers there announce, and insist on a change lest they quit.
Fortunately Mr. Hoover's mistakes have been made early enough in the campaign for him to rectify them. We remind him that his campaign committee members have merely resigned, they haven't bolted to Mr. Smith—yet.
AFRO READERS SAY:
Closing The Schools
Despite the protect of City Health Commissioner C. Hampson Jones, the Baltimore School Board postponed the opening of public schools from September 4th to September 17th. Dr. Jones declared infantile paralysis is not an epidemic here, despite the 63 cases so far discovered, and that children are better off in school under supervision of teachers, school doctors and nurses than at home.
Dr. Jones declared infantile paralysis is not an epidemic here, despite the 63 cases so far discovered, and that children are better off in school under supervision of teachers, school doctors and nurses than at home. With all due regard for parents who petitioned the board to close the schools, we ask why does Baltimore have a health department and a health commissioner, if his expert advice is to be disregarded on matters purely affecting the public health?
Without Captain George Brown's excursion boat the good old summer time has been not so good.
The banking business can hardly spare candidate Goldsborough for the U. S. Senate. The senate can get along without him.

Why Not Complain To The Street Cleaning Department About Trash On The Street.
To the Editor:
The AFRO insisted sometime ago the appointment of colored street sweepers in various sections of the city. The change has made no difference in the amount of trash and rubbish cluttering on the sidewalks and streets.
If the street cleaning department is doing anything in my neighborhood I fall to see it. I need to be careful of trash before each house certain days of the week.
I have only been in Baltimore a few weeks but the West in all its roughness and newness never was as dirty as Baltimore.

More About Rubbish On The Streets.
To the Editor:
Householders are in large measure to blame
them for the damage and rubbish on the streets
in residential sections
Can't something be done towards civic pride and cleanliness? Why doesn't the Street Cleaners' Department seek the cooperation of the house keepers by posting signs "keep the streets clean."
Is the police department tongue-tied and hand-cuffed so they can't help too.

A Protest from the Citizens of Highland Beach.
To the Editor:
The public is pretty much fed on the alibi and the deposed Commissioners of Highland Beach, who evidently in their own opinion, "Could do no wrong."
Highland Beach citizens are apparently being used by Mr. Henderson as an excuse to get free travel to the beach, taking a public benefactor and a man of standing.
It is a pity Milton Francis and Nathaniel Guy are persuaded to assume the role of "Yes Sar" and "Me Too" to the stuff that Mr. Henderson does.
Do they know what he means by "Gross Information?"
If some kind-genius could convince them that his rackets at the beach were bad and that he wear public and an embarassed Highland Beach would be deeply grateful.

This Reader Tells Why the World Is Going to the foxs.
Dear Editor:
I see so much bunk in the Afro about the world getting better that I have kept silent long enough. I must speak in defence of the world and to confound the nits who write such gullible opinions. If you think the world is getting better, look at women's clothes. If it were just a matter of comfort, no one would object to short clothes or no clothes, but the modern idea in women's dress is exhibitionism. It parading itself in music, dance and literature.
Look at the decline of morals in the American pulpit. Look and weep.

Politics, church, music, literature, and the ordinary man and woman relatives are worse than 25 years ago in the U. S.

A Tribute to Mary Ella Mosseil, Baltimore Mission to Haiti, who Discovered Bishop Hurst. "The striking likeness of "Baltimore's First Citizen" in your issue of the present week, suggests that we do the greatest of Negro womanhood. We talk often about our great men, but not so much about our great women. It maybe because of the greatness of the Negro woman, the vance the thought that the Negro woman has been the greatest contribution of the race to the world, and the remarkable extended support of such generation.
The striking likeness of "Baltimore's First Citizen," in your issue of the present week, suggests that we do the greatest of Negro womanhood. We talk often about our great men, but not so much about our great women. In this direction, I might advance the thought that the Negro woman has been the greatest contribution of the race to the development of the nation, perhaps an extended support of such contention.
But my present purpose, in appreciating all that my friend, Bishop Hurst, has been on behalf of his race, and adopted country, is cultivated woman, born in Baltimore, who many years ago, as the loving companion of the late Rev. Dr. Mossell, went as a missionary to the Republic of Haiti, especially, should study the life of Mary Ella Mossell, teacher and missionary who wrought so effectively in the Republic of Haiti. The fact that John Hurst was one of her intellectual giants, and holy man, Daniel A. Payne, promises that she procured for him a scholarship in Wilberforce University, where he completed his education, and sat at the feet of that intellectual giant, and holy man, Daniel A. Payne, wealth of culture and refinement the heritage of the Negro woman, the greatest of her sex in the kingdom of Womanhood, that Mrs. Mossell, the most brilliant and splitting influence which the race feels and appreciates, emulating from "Baltimore's First Citizen." During the year 1888, the Hon. John Mercer Langston, Trinity College, uplaced upon the character of Mrs. Mossell, and near the close was this choice paragraph: "... * * * The emergency came and its duties and consequences were met in heroic fashion, and nobility and dignity which it revealed in the character of Mrs. Mossell will ever remain our glad heritage—the amplest justification we can keep admiration for her as a true Christian."

SIMPLE THOUGHTS
As the stones, one by one, constitute the building, so the days one by one constitute our lives. If each day is perfect, there will be no flaws. ARCHIE R. SMITH
Thinks President Edwards of Kittrell College Should Not Have Been Re-elected.
To the Editor:
The fourth edition of the AFRO-AMERICAN, the following article appeared on the front page. "Kittrell Prexy In, Board Cut to Twenty". Kittrell College Trustee Board has been asked to cut the board. It was quite surprising to the students and friends of Kittrell College to learn that the president was exonerated by the executive board and bound to the rule. The board struck and more so when he was re-elected week before last. We are wondering why he was re-elected when such charges were brought against him and bound to the rule. The executive board is still bound to the AFRO-AMERICAN, it seems as though he has in some way put the blame on us. It may be true that the executive board exonerated us and bound to our own accords. The members of the trustee board do not know when Mr. Moseley and I married. They can't say whether it was before or February and certainly it knows absolutely nothin' to the affair.
Whether Kittrell will have enough students to start school with this fall remains to be seen, but it is a known fact that they have no predecessor in this position. He has been re-elected to. If he is man enough to hold such a position he should be man enough to bear his blame and not try to shift it on some one else. The things he said about us are absolutely untrue. He were not the president when thanking him taken down and replaced by a man who would make Kittrell a school of the highest standing without fooling students to attend.
The exact reason for the strike was the conduct of the president toward students.

SOCIAL EQUALITY
Sand Lot Kids Forget Color For A Game Of Baseball—"Sand Lot Equality Counts Scores And Not Complexions."
(By G. LINCOLN SOMERVILLE)
Social reality discovered right here in Baltimore.
Pearl, Senator Tom Heflin!
It's a fact, and what's more, nobody seems to be disturbed about it, and there will hardly be anything done about it.
The sandwich is topped for lunch and was enjoying a handy cheese sandwich, viewing from a second-story window the hustling vehicles and pedestrians on the street below—an every-day
Back Lot Stuff
To one side, however, on a back lot, in plain view of passersby, but out of the lane of business and traffic dangers, was a scene that would interest any red-blooded boy or two-fisted man—it weaved itself into the truth and give the names of the opposing sides, but one thing I do know is that the police themselves, themselves, the amount of noise they made and the dust stirred up counted as an indication.
Only Eight Players
To be sure, there were not even nine players on each side, there were only eight in all, and the last three were chosen from an audience that knew the game. They fence rail to watch the game as it progressed. The ages of the players ranged from six to eight years, and it was a lily-white concern unintentionally for the numbers—for they were real Negro boys. And so the game began, and as the scores began to pile up, I wondered if there was not a great moral lesson here for full-grown whites and women of scrub baseball rules that an on-looker could hardly suppress laughter long enough to think—for you know, I suppose, that regular baseball fans are not interested in playing—it's the hits and runs that interest them.
Khaki Pants
One of the darker players was garbed in a none too well-fitting blouse and khaki pants, the latter held to his slender body by the waist. The other was peatedly compelled to hold up the pants with one hand and play ball with the other. The other was wearing a t-shirt - this, for others, were too busy, trying to score.
A Chase Over The Field
Another funny scene was on, when one of the white boys started for second-base, but the colored pitcher picked it. The white runner started back to first base with the colored boy in pursuit, the chase leading all over the field until he was taken. I do not remember how they adjusted it.
I watched them for an hour, losing complete count of the score, and when the time for lunch had passed, they were still going strong.
The Heart of Baltimore
It is right here in the heart of one of America's top universities, unarmed and both races enjoying it immensely, and nobody cared, not even the policeman, who was a curbstone spectator. No one could deny it, for although none of the players were over tidy or spoiltly clean, one could easily see that five of them were clothed in pale skirts, and the other three were unmistakably skipped.
No Drawing Of Straws
This mixture of races was not done after long deliberations and the drawing of straws, for the fact that three more were needed to get the game under way was sufficient reason for their qualification, and they were chosen at once and as quickly accepted. Shades of Benjamin Tillman! Can it be true that five flaxen-haired youths have socialized with three of their curly-haired friends in black? Lessons From Children
Great are the lessons you can learn from children who will confound the wise. "Just a back lot game of baseball and not one of the boys said anything about white supremacy. A general scramble all over the lot, upsetting cans and sacks, and a lot of people over on the Mayflower." Every boy got his bat in order, and nobody cried: "Whites first."
Villard's Dinner
How strangely different was it with the older whites a few months ago when Mr. Villard, editor of the book, would scarcely find a reception room in the city because he insisted on Negro guests attending. However, Baltimore moves on, the incident of the white boy being held as the iron post that supports some street name. No doubt these boys, or others, will assemble again and put on even a more comical game. The boy, who was 60-55, and they will think nothing of it. Not until they have grown to youth or manhood will the cleavage line be drawn, and then perhaps not be cut out because of established prejudice before them.
President There Maybe
Some of these same boys may become lawyers, judges, or even President, but I can't conceive of them being lawyers or President again. Legislation has decreed that they shall not run together and legally they won't; but the law does not decree that they play together, nor does it decree that boys, it makes no difference, as but men it is harmful, dangerous.
Sand-Lot Equality
Sand lot social equality that mocks at all the bills offered by Blesse and Heilf; the kind that is not only fair but also kind; dirt and sand over the face of the white boy until he is a deep motley and deepens the hue of his dark companion; an equality that only counts the fact that he is innocent, because it is childish.
A Good Game
Speed on the day when intelligent white men and women, especially, will understand that naturally we are equal, and the 'thing desired' is a good game. I would be happy if the eight unrins from the back lot could arrest the attention of the people, and undeniable fact: "What Fools We Mortals Be!"

Presidential Elections
Every four years we go through the agravating and tiresome task of getting rid of the politics using the money for four years long. This was once the people's idea of putting whom they wanted into the White House, but the politicians have clear the matter into their own hands. Of course presidents are necessary, I think, but the plum migh led me into believing they alnt. The main trouble is that presidents in general do most of their work in the office, they get in, they just flop down for four years until next election. Some presidents say: "I don't choose to run to run, and others say: 'I don't choose to do anything,' and they don't. And I declare, these fellows just platform ready, so all you do in the matter is vote. As to whether it will be a democrat or republican, depends on the scatter around. I don't mean that an election is bought up, I mean that it is bought up and sewed up. This the money is new."
You hear so much dope about the candidates and what they can and will do. You hear that Tuesday, you don't know who to vote for, you don't care, you need the money so your ballot is turned into flowers. Conscience used to mean a heap in byeone days, but present day politics don't hook up with that stuff now. You vote your convictions altruist, but a few dollars make you feel not guilty. In Mexico they change presidents we vote and frequently they don't know what they want. England does not worry over a chief executive as we do, she just keeps one on tap all the time. Things may be difficult for a politician, for at least we won't have to listen to so much soap box speech-making for four years, and after the fourth year, politicians talking about each other, they will be mad for three years and about time they make up, it is time to start all new candidates — Uncle Joe.
Greatest Victory
If one can win a victory
Oer arrogance, and pride,
Within him shall abide;
His victory is more complete
Than his legions may defeat.
If one can rise and victor be
great and honest and honesty 'twent man and man
and honesty 'twent man and man
He greater victory wins than he
Before whom mighty armies flee.
If one can gain the victory
Over himself, and sin,
Than could he
In glory battle win;
And greater he that who vies
On battlefield, for honors high.
Great is the conqueror, and great
But greater is he who subdues
And rules himself, alone—
In the dominion of his soul!
To the Editor:
To let me call your attention to an error made on the editorial page of the AFRO-AMERICAN in the column headed "The Week," in the issue of August 25. The writer of that column rebukes the National Association of Colored Women for inviting Mrs. Mable Willebrandt to speak to its members.
"Colored women of the U. S. A. are talking," says the writer, "they would like to be invited to the National Association of Mrs. M. Willebrandt, prosecutor of Perry Howard, S. D. Redmond, E. L. Redmond, E. L. Patton and R. R. Church, all sons of colored mothers, got invited to the National Association of Mrs. L. Colored Women."
And right here is where the gentleman who writes "The Week" for the MAGAZINE made a big mistake! I will not say the mistake is inexactly, but who writes for a newspaper should be very careful to get baked into the publicly accuses an individual or an organization of doing something feels called upon to re-Mrs. Terrell serious thing to hold bake them. It is a very an individual response up to public ridicule or scorn.
M. S. S.
Women Did Not Invite Her
The truth is that Mrs. Willebrandt has never been invited by the National Association of Colored Women to speak at any meeting it has ever held, and she has not been to the National League of Republican Colored Wo. en on Saturday, August 4th in the Young Women's Christian Association of Alabama, where women in the community inquired who had invited Mrs. Willebrandt after she had spoken and left the building, Miss Nannie Burroughs, the president of the National Association, emphatically that she not only had not invited Mrs. Willebrandt to appear at the session, but she had told the National Republican Women not want her to address her meeting.
Nobody ever discovered how Mrs. Brendan received letters to the women who had anything to do with the problem, they had, naked, her to speak.
A Lecture
After telling the readers of "The Week" that the National Association of Colored Women had invaded the court, prosecuted, colored men to speak to its members, the writer proceeds to read the organization a stern lecture. He tells us women not to be weak and unarmed, and that race who have reached the top Mrs. Willebrandt is destroying you." Never did I think I would live to see the day when any man would publicize anything which would destroy our men. No group of people in this country has tried or is trying harder today to resist the highest standard manhood than the National Association of Colored Women. It has indeed set an example of high endeavor which would do well to save the race, not to ruin it.
Warping Not Heeded
And then the writer of *The Week* utters this terrible warning to our readers: "White men take you by the hand only when nobody is looking and then after dark. You know that, if you want to scrape to a political lady working here to overthrow the high men of your race who take you by the hand, you must be a broad daylight." That certainly is the most unkindest cut of all. The members of the National Association for the Abolition of anybody not to allow white men to take them by the hand when nobody is looking after dark. And they are shocked when a writer writes their deets called up to urge us not "to bob: and scrape to a political lady" who is trying to overthrow our best mem. Wild horses are scared to pose the Association into such disgusting sycophancy. Their past-record shows they are not accustomed to lack of self-respect.
Sitting In The Shade
Still reading the National Association a lecture the writer of "The Week" says: "Look about you and learn from white men and women who have been accused of rape you can argue, as you sit in the shade and fan: 'What would have happened to S. D. Redmond or L. Patton at Bloxli, if they, thouh accused, had asked Miss Mabel Willebrandt a question — any question. Willebrandt and out next time, leave Mrs. Willebrandt alone with her indictments."
The writer makes another mistake when he tells the members of the National Association to argue, as he did when they were engaged in discussions, they are not sitting in the shade, as a rule, and they are so earnest in their efforts to solve all the problems they face that they get to fan when they are threshing them out. I am sure the gentleman who writes "The Week" had no intention of doing the National Association's job, but many of the members feel very keenly the strictures he has uttered against them and are sorry that he did not acquaint himself with the organization of doing something which would have been a direct slap in the face of men whom they respect and admire.

In other words they are Unloving and deny the God-head of Jesus Christ.

With a race actor as "Uncle

shown through the country.
As the screen version is presented it is about as much in the original spirit of Uncle Tom's Cabin as near it is of pre-war All the sectional "kick" has been taken out of it, and while the producers must have their eyes alike on New England Dixie Cole in something the transition which is not at all welcome.
We want the South to relegate to the their hide-bound traditions of racial antipathy and for a similar reason we must relegate anything which would preserve hatreds in ourselves.
While the new screen *Uncle Tom's Cabin* is a cheap treasury on the original, the new "Simon Legree" and the new *Ewes* interracial picture today than the deeply colored one of yesterday.
Few may agree with this, but the place for books of this size is the library of hallowed archives of the past.
Interesting News From North Carolina
Two news items of interest come from North Carolina this week. Guided by that astute social worker, Lawrence a O'Keeffe graduate, both races met for the first time in one convention.
The other piece of news comes from Selator F. M. Simmons, whose amouncereum party and party and cast his lot with the Republicans in this Presidential election, places that state unmistakably in the dourful column.
If there is a spirit young, world-ready day in Figland field, must have felt some consolation that they did not sacrifice their lives and die in vain.
Ten years after white and colored soldiers from North Carolina rubbed shoulders, the come to feel that they can meet together in the Democracy for which they fought.
Another angle to this development is the need to do in a community, North Carolina is attracting attention in educational, race relation and business development, when it meets, meeting each other on the half way ground, and Lawrence A. Oxley is an important factor in this trend of devell
While leaders of the type of Oxley, Dr. James E. Shepherd and that business Giant, G. C. Spalding, have been the most prominent with indignation at every wrong which the race undergoes, they are needed to make practical and militant leaders to the more militant leaders make. We must always keep men of uncompromising ideals on the riring; we must always keep men of crusader and pioneers to fight through the thickets of racial perjury and blaze new trials, but practical men must move our men to the new trenches and terrian taken. The most promising thing about North Carolina is that the young veterans are together. The bigotry and narrowness of the older men in Rotarian bodies does not mean much, but much more scouts and the young veterans are feeling; they will be the rotarian of tomorrow; they will face the new generation of our group, that is what men our Orley see.
And One Woman
A group of young men sitting in a Y. M. C. A. lobby discuss men, women and love. They do not get to experience life in schools where they have more courses in raising good horses and cows than human being, but they get their knowledge from the chance experiences in life. They are quoted from Guy Dey Maupassant's "Our Heart," argues seriously that in this age of high-powered pre-nuptial romance, marriage simmons down to the level of a child. That there are few men or women who have combined within themselves the faculty of completely satisfying the mental, social, spiritual demands from each other. He would advocate a social structure wherein there were a number of women specialized as mothers, the remainder emailed to furnish the intellectual social entertainment for the males.
The significance here is not what this young man thinks, but what he is thinking and women are thinking in terms of a new social order. Why not codify this trend of thinking inirected channels by making one of the practical sciences taught in some stage of school life? Between certain ages there is no question which occupies the talking, thinking and active hours of individual life, and its love and its consequences, but except in indirect and half-hearted ways, do those holding responsibility issues involve the far reaching issues involved. And this question is not taking care of itself. While the morals of young men and women are far more honest today than they were in the past, there are creeping in certain dangers which those who study the life history of nations, the growth and decay of peoples, recognize as fraught with danger.
The structure of the home is changing. With cooking, domestic uses being taught in schools, mothers are taught the habit of preparing children for life's duties. Strenuous industrial demands coupled with the rush and crush of life leaves youth and age young. This is the result of this vital teaching on the mating instinct must follow in the wake of that of other home instruction. That brave and courageous educator must be taught the course in the science of marriage?

A CHRISTIAN'S DREAM
I awake early one morning,
I things were quiet and still,
I Goa, running, into the
Gona, running, over the hill
Then over the hill I saw coming,
And then over the hill I saw coming,
This marble cloud looked to me of angels
All dressed in robes of white.
My heart beat the faltesthose and
Then great throbs of delight.
For I was a beautiful beauty
All through the lonely night.
And now this early morning,
My dream-had really come true.
For I am now on the road to Jesus,
And I'll now come to Jesus.

Around Town
Cobble stones, grass growing on many of the small streets of East Baltimore, in the colored section. Most glimpse the street from a nearby avenue, south. A white family here and there. A bare-footed baby in a shop shoe on Presstman street, ness, Ettung, with its little feet, while mother looks on. The more genteel folks in East Baltimore decorate their front steps with flowers this time of the year. The girls play in the midst of the general squail. Some of our bad spelling: "Furnish Room for Rent"—"Baby Carriage For Sale". A office at Drudid Hill Park swimming pool* play in groups of 'em — where they give out boy's bathing suits. Fly specks on the home-made postcard. Virginia Dare Candy in Dr. Blank's drug store. High school graduates in blue and white nurse's training uniforms. We are seeing more of them, with the coming of the new Provident Hospital. A former fine apartment house at McCullough and Hoffman streets, partially occupied, but falling into decay. It is only one of many in this district.
The newly cleaned, lower stone work of the dwellings from 1512 to 1526 McCullough street. They attract the Junior High School at Lafayette avenue and McCullough street, receiving a new coat of paint on inside. The walls are painted yellow later, small children, one of them, sharing a bottle of soft drink and one bun, in a doorway on Presstman street. More awnings in the 2400 block of McCullough street than in the entire length of Drudh Hill avenue.

That row of brass railing in the 1200 block of Lafayette avenue—Some are always shining — others are not. A sick citizen, trying to find his family physician at his office. Almost a hopeless job during these vacations. The sidewalk cafeteria. You walk a block and buy a pig-foot. Another cook, and you eat. Another cook, and you make. Makes one think of the Paris boulevards.
Hoover and Smith Are Both Wet
(Charlotte Dispatch to Baleigh N. C. News and Observer.) The cleverest bit of the white Airmaster was pulled when the interlocutor asked the operator of a gazing crystal what was the difference between Smith and Hoop, the magician studied for goldfish and brought forth his answer. "Mr Smith believes you ought to carry a quart on your hip, the difference between them is that Mr. Hooper thinks you ought to carry a quart on your hip. The difference between them is that Mr. Hooper thinks you ought to carry a quart on your hip and Mr. Smith thinks it is all right to leave your coat off." The thing produced an uproar of applause. It came very near to breaking up the morning's meeting for a talk. W. B. Armstead, white, of Durham, said the convention had been not so successful, while drunk, had witnessed two serious brawls, in which knives were used.
No Tip Wanted
When the late Wilfrid Ward, friend of Tennison and long the editor of the public Quarterly, this country about a dozen years ago he never ceased to express his amazed admiration of the Pullman and thoughtful imminent"s" a constant delight to him. "One felt like applauding them," he wrote in the journal of his American travels, the "book of the day" that they do not want to be dependent upon tips. They insist upon a living wage and more reasonable wages that does not look like the most successful way to get what they want. Yet their case appears to be deceived—particularly an appreciative traveling public—cannot lend a hand.
Can't Split Ticket
"How can I vote for Curtis and not for Hoover?" "How can I vote for Robinson and not for Smith?" are questions we examples of numerous questions from sons who desire to "split" the national ticket. The answer is: It can't be done! Let us ask, "Who will vote for Hoover, and vice versa. Likewise, if you vote for Robinson you will have to vote for Smith, and again vice versa. In each state a certain number of "electors," who are equally popular, will not vote directly for president and vice president, but for these electors. Each party proposes a list of electors and the group which wins will vote for Curtis, and Robinson, and Curtis, or Smith and Robinson. Technically I legally these electors can vote for anybody they please, but they are morally bound to vote for their party nominees and they always do. — The Pathfinder.

Husband Away, Maid Served Couple, Coffee, Whiskey
LOS ANGELES, Cal., (ANP.)
— Again within a year the name of Kelly figures as the name of an accused murderer of a member of Hollywood's society in a love triangle and with the testimony of a colored maid is the sole pivot around which swings the state's hopes of unravelling the mystery attached.
In the first case, a husband was beaten to death by the wife's lover as the maid looked on, and in the present case that is startling the whole country as each new horrible detail is revealed is that of Leo Pat Kelley, 29, white, accused of murdering his wife, married sweetheart, Mrs. Mylele Mellus, 41, white, in the colored maid's room, their clandestine trysting place.
The maid is Mrs. Maggie Ferris, who has been working for Mrs. Mellus, wife of Frank Mellus, wealthy awning manufacturer, for nearly five years in their palatial Hollywood mansion. At the afternoon of August 6, Frank Mellus, devoted sportsman, returned from a one-day fishing and hunting trip to find the nude body of his wife with the head crushed and the teor torn and mangled by human teeth. It was lying across a luxurious bed in his bedroom. Giving the alarm, he and found Kieper sitting in a stuffy closet closest downstairs in the kitchen's room. At the coroner's inquest it was revealed that the maid had served Mellus and his mistress a breakfast of coffee and whiskey early that morning following Mellus' departure at 5:30 on his fishing trip, and as frequently before during five years of rich trips with the poor house boy employed in a downtown market, she had gone in home and left the house with them.
The state and defense are having great difficulty picking a jury to try Kelley who has been indicted for the murder. On every tongue and publicly known, Kelley is a widowness of the life of the dead woman and a circle of her friends had been living is being freely discussed. Saddists and other degenerates seem to have been members of the circle and the point which the excellent defense has made is that one of these, either a man or woman, is the guilty party and not Kelley who it claims to have proven is perfectly normal. Broad hints are also extended that the husband may be the murderer.

How Dry I Am
During a rest period along the line of march on Tuesday a band from California played solemnly "How Dry I Am", to the amusement of the by-standers. Everyone seemed greatly surprised when Monumental Lodge No. 3, of Baltimore hove in sight led by a Chicago band instead of Charles Harris band, which has so often been used to unset the Mi-Tee Monarchs, national champions of Elkdon.
Well Dressed
The Baltimore delegation which included Willie Smith, Sam Taylor, Roy Bond, P. E. R. Johnson and others of note were very picturesque in their cream-colored, purple trimmed dress. All along the line of march P. E. R. Johnson made a bid for the next convention.
Beauty Marred
Nearing the end of the march the beauty of the parade was marred when it was spit on and sent in seventh grade with a seat and disbanding at different points.
Now that Chicago has had old Bill by the horns, she stands ready to meet the onrush of the G. U. O. F. next week.
She is herby warned to get in touch with C. F. Williams, chairman of housing committee at 3335 State street, or write yours truly at 3953 Michigan avenue, for protection.

ALL STAR REVUE
BY MRS. JACK SHEFHERD
Dinah Scott's All Star Revue is the talk of the town. They are just coming out of the State of N.orth Carolina and believe me the natives went wild over the show.
Last week the show played the Rex Theatre, Charlotte, N. C., packed and jammed them in all the week.

40 MILES HR. NOW JERSEY SPEED LAW
New Traffic Laws Hard On
Jay Walkers And Ride Solicitors
BICYCLISTS HIT HARD
TREENTON, N. J.—A number of changes in the motor vehicle law effecting pedestrians and bicyclists as well as motorists in the State of New Jersey became effective September 15. The speed limit has been increased to 40 miles an hour, one of the most important features is the punishment by fine and imprisonment for "Jay-walking." "In all business and residential districts pedestrians are given the right to cross which time and all crossings where traffic is not controlled by traffic signals or a policeman. They forfeit their right-of-way, however, if they cross any intersection other than at right angles to the curb. They make it illegal to operate a bicycle without lights visible from the front and rear.
Hard On Bicycles
"It is also necessary for bicyclists to have their 'bikes' equipped with an audible signal which can be heard at a distance of two hundred feet.
"Trick riding on the streets is absolutely prohibited, for bicyclists to ride the bicycle to drift, with his feet off the pedals. He is not permitted to remove both hands from the handle bars, nor to practice any track or fancy riding in any street. It is also unlawful for him to ride the bicycle, person for the driver, or to operate his machine on any sidewalk.
"Motorists similarly are benefited by a provision which makes it unlawful for any person to stand in a roadway for the purpose of soliciting a ride in a vehicle. This puts the stamp of official disapproval on the 'hitch hiker' and 'thumb tourist' misuse.
"Another benefit to the car owner is the clause forbidding any person or persons to stand in the highway to stop, impede, hinder or in any way obstruct the progress of any vehicle for the purpose of soliciting the purchase of goods, merchandise or tickets, or for the purpose of soliciting contributions for any cause whatsoever.
"Conviction for 'reckless driving carries with it punishment of not more than 30 days' imprisonment or by a fine of not more than $1,000 and shall be punishment for not more than two months or a fine of not more than $200, or both."

200 In Butts Hill Fight
After referring to the part that Negro troops played in the Battle of Rhode Island, in which he portrayed the heroic deeds of 200 Negro soldiers at Burt Hill militia that audience of some of the things that Negroes expected of a country for which they had shed blood in battle.
Enumerating these expectations, the speaker said, "The Negro expects freedom from public and private insult as expressed in legalized or traditional segregation of every sort; he expects freedom from mob violence, which is held in the hands of personality in American life; he expects freedom from easy assumption of superiority unsupported by facts; he desires freedom to establish residence among other groups by which he may demonstrate his respectability and usefulness as a neighbor; he desires freedom to uphold the merits of his fitness to render service; and finally, he desires to be free to exercise the citizenship right of the franchise unmolested, which carries with it the right to choose the party with which he will affiliate and the candidate whom he will support and the issues rather than on the ground of showing gratitude for past favors."

一
The struggle against tradition, culture, intrigue, international diplomacy, and the power that every king must eventually face, is graphically betrayed in "Forbidden Hours," that Thursday. The Monday for a three-day run. The story, an intimate one of love behind the throne—reckless young love that knows no bounds, has forged a bond of love with roen and Rene Adoree, a perfect pair of lovers. Navarro as His Majesty Michael IV, and Miss Adoree, as Maureen, both with supreme heights in their depletion of thwarted love.
Beautiful Queen
The old idea that queens are frumpy sour looking persons is dismissed from one's mind as Dorothy Cummings, in that role is seen in one beautiful woman, she who when Navarro is deeply in love with one Marie Marciani tries to give him counsel as to his duties to his country. The production is one of the most popular pieces of great royal weddings and sumptuous cour affairs in a throne room the exact reproduction of one in Europe. The cast includes Edward Connell, Alberta Hugo Marries Cannon, Alberta Hugo Borg and others of mote.
"The Yellow Lily"
Hungarian court life in the days when Emperor Joseph II was brilliant and colorful court, calls the background for Bille Dove's latest starring vehicle, the Regent for Thursday and Friday. The story, adapted from Lajos Biro's Hungarian play of the same name, takes place in life in Budapest, only a few years ago, and mingles intimate romance with its exotic color and intrigue. Dove, As Archduke Alexander, he falls madly in love with Judith Perdely, and the experiences he encounter him in, her furnish a picture full of thrills.
Ken Maynard is featured on Saturday in the "Red, Raiders," a film that plays the part of an Indian scout in the romantic days before the Civil War when pushing the frontier west-ward was the most perilous job a man could undertake. The picture of action that every member of the family will enjoy.
Local Wom'n Writes Song For Geo. Bias
The following letter was received this week by George Bias, local songwriter and music-making name for himself on Columbia records: "My dear Mr. Bias: "It was most pleasing to me when I was first heard of you, and discovered that you were really on your road to fame. I have often heard you sing at the Regent Theatre, and really wondered why a young man with such a melodious voice wouldn't aspire for a musical. "The speedy rise in such a short period of time is on the lips of nearly every individual, and personally I am very proud to be able to singable. The blues and spirituals I admit, I do enjoy, but my favorite songs are sentimental. There is a difference between the blues and blues are catchy and entertaining, but to a certain degree have grown monotonous. Then too, the blues can be soothing, can sneeze nothing else. Your appeal for sentimental music meets with my approval and I am certain there are many that have longed for eminence.
To show just how anxious I am that one of our Baltimore boys may have composed for you a sentimental song that I will present to you at my home if you will be willing enough. It may help a little, if not it is at least encouraging.
Hoping you continued success and to hear from you at your earliest, I remain.

Carl Diton, Pianist, Ends Motor Trip Which Took Near Year. Western Mountain Roads Better Than East's—Worst Roads In Georgia—One Detour 125 Miles—N. C. Roads Best.
By CARL:DITON, ANP.
ANDERSON, Indiana, URICHIS-
VILLE, Ohio. We have finally
reached our goal. We have a
lone and winding trail it has been,
full of beauty, full of curiosity
at almost every turn, through fall,
winning a prize and a small -ortion
of the summer.
Most of our talks have been confirmed to the musical side of the trip, but we would like to have us dwell a little while on the motoring side. In good weather we found the princely weather we saw on the days or rain there were, either a tractor or a mule-team would be available to give a few feet lift through a bad mud furrow. The Tampa, Florida, and California, are, to my mind, the universally best roads in America today. This, of course, is the road we are building, of the states are launching huge road-building programs. There appeared to be quite a deal of countries that do not have to accept very much of it for we kept our machine up to maximum efficiency all the time. Indeed, we travel if there persists the thirst change in performance, have it attended to by the best possible medical teams to repair and may not cost more than a quarter but it pays in the end and in time and money, especially time, for that is one of the chief utilities and most popular of the automobile today.
In the Mountains
A few words about mountain driving may also be interesting. We have considered this species of driving worth half the alarm it usually entails. We have considered the lowest possible speed should be maintained, irrigardless of what other drivers do. When descending, posted warnings to go into the road are hered to, and warning or no warning, at any time that it is difficult to maintain the minimum speed, bring the car to a full or near stop in first speed. The mountain roads of the west are preferable to those of the east, because of their added width. Therefore, the trip over Raton Pass into New Mexico was more enjoyable. West Virginia, infinitely lower.
Punctures are about as infrequent on the highways as they are with the interstate, and the occasional two punctures within an hour. Several times there were punctures on the interstate, and again after entering Arizona, there was no tire trouble in city or on highway. In the state, California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Utah, Woming Colorado, Nebraska, and Iowa, in other states, there were only two months of constant drying.
Night Driving
Night driving is far more dangerous than day driving and it would be safer for night driver who praises about making sixty miles — hour because the traffic is light! Anything like sixty miles an hour daylight day driving is the worst of the trip occurred in Alabama between Greenville and Montgomery and the longest was in Georgia where one mile was the record for over one hundred twenty-five miles! To aim for a no-accident record, one must distance from other cars on all sides all the time! In other words, do not trail an警 and do not permit any vehicle to be indulged in only when there is ample time to go by and clear the way for oncoming traffic. The "early start" is not to be recommended unless the driver has had sufficient rest.
Last Stops
Anderson, Indiana, and Ulnrichsville, Ohio, were the last two stops made, the former providing an enthusiastic welcome, the latter a look-see-look, the latter being very poor in attendance. And had it not been for the success of the trip up to that point, the end was inevitable. One it was not the promoter's fault, for he successfully managed us elsewhere. It was the community that failed. And what you can do in one community, always be dued in another.
"The Musician's Trail now comes to an end. Adequate gratitude will be made to me, and I made it a success and also our recommendations relative to the upbuilding, of classic concerts among Negroes in America . . . be forthcoming in the next and last article using the captain "The Musician's Trail Survey."

But several days after when as part of his initiation, our subject was made to play several solos or spend two in silent pain, "Polly" let loose.

This young musician also added his contribution to the orchestra in Stripes Forever, "Over the Waves," "Apple Blossoms," and other well-known selections to gmateer orchestra members.

Well, the Theatre Season ts on its

Years It looks as though the public
Yall get run for thelr money:
the Goldberg Production Corporation
promises a better class of enter.
tainment ‘and more variety instead
of rovue after revue, They will pro-
duce some strong plot shows whlch,
to my mind, will help lots. Tals
this aide “dramatic art will go
well.
‘Tam sure the public will support
two Shows of this kind if they were
Sooked far enough apart; And. to,
T believe we could stand one Black
‘and White show to break the monot-
fony, but this show, of course, could
‘only play the East and Middle West.
‘But Biter all, this is the cream of
‘the time, anywav, and Just, because
we have a few. hasrow-ininded peo:
ple in the South Is no reason that
he publi In the Bast and the Mid:
die West. should be deprived of a
good show of this kind, I must say
that the manager who has been, tell-
ing his audience that he ould ne
get any better or different shows will
Bave to find something else to say.
"There are” just a few Southern
managers who think anything 1s good
enough for their race patrons and
there area few managers of race
theatres that will not cooperate and
help Sud up the theatre business,
ButT hope this season will find us all
‘working in harmony, plugging, boost-
ing, and elevating the theatre busi-
ness.
FACTS
Now, we have always liad good
performers but bad management, no
Sne to produce anything new ’ for
fhem,and to the managers of these
companies heretofore who are most-
ly actors themselves, I regret to say
that there are very. few actor-man-
lagers that are capable in elther the
White or colored show business.
There are a few. say. Irvin Miller
Henry Drake, Whitman | Sisters, and
that’s about all T can think of, ‘There
might be a few others that I am
foverlooking, but if I missed any T
didnot miss many. ‘The producers

PAST'R'S $1,000 CHECK DOESN'T HUSH HIM UP
Rev. C. A. Ward Leaving Boston For Pittsburgh Speaks His Piece
BOSTON IS TERMED IGNORANT, BACKWARD
Vice Flourishes At Night. Women's Clubs Hotbeds Of Gossip
BOSTON, MASS.—The $1,000 check given by Ebenezer Baptist Church to the Rev. Cassius A. Ward who resigned to accept a new charge at Central Baptist Church, Pittsburgh, failed to hush him up.
The Rev. Mr. Ward has been pastor of Ebenezer Church for 20 years and in his farewell sermon Sunday night of last week he made the most fiery denunciation of Boston this city has ever heard.
Crass Ignorance
"In Boston," he said, "the seat of education and culture, the cradle of liberty"; our people are steeped in crass ignorance. We talk of the South, but our own people here are the most unprogressive and back-
ward group of Negroes in the land. "Some sections of the city are homelycombed with old women who are teachers. We have Women's Clubs, Political Clubs, Sewing Circles — they are nothing more or less than hot-gossip or aging tongues disguising family life but sitting at the foundation of social order.
"There is a deadening current flowing from denizens o' sin and corruption in the underworld under the cover of darkness. No man, woman and man while enmeshed in its vile clutches." The N. A. A. C. P, and the Equal Rights League did not escape the pastor's denunciation. Nobody Throws Stones "I have been criticized and accused of adultery during my twenty years of pastorate here." Dr. Ward said, "but if there is anybody in this audience or elsewhere who can affirm the truth of such charges, let them stand and speak now or for the sake of their peace." Nobody spoke.
Two Held For Liquor Violations
Arrested on warrants issued by the district attorney on charges of sale and possession of alcoholic liquors, Albert Johnson, 52, 1430 Uirch alley, and Mrs. Nancy Lang, 55, 1506 E. Pratt street, are being held pending a hearing before the Federal Commission.
The two were arrested at their homes in conjunction with the raids of the homes where who small quantities of liquor were confiscated, Thursday.
Man Burned By Acid
Moving a small car of hot acid while working at the Mutual Chemical Company, Herman Jackson, 220 Pearl street, was seriously burned when some of the acid upset on his left foot Saturday.

Warden Brady Says Two Of 73 Men On Trusty List Are White. 800 Now In State Institution.
That colored prisoners in the Maryland Penitentiary "take their medicine" win greater ease than white men, and that they make better trusties, w. s learned this week by an AFRO-AMERICAN reporter who found that of the 73 "trusties" only two were white men.
TWO GIVEN JAIL TERMS IN TRAFFIC COURT
"As a matter of fact," declared Warden Brady, "practically all of the t.'s are color: men, he says, are trusted about the place and out of the building, and it has been found that they react to regenerative treatment for the most part have been honest and reliable when given their privileges.
800 Inmates
At present there are 800 colored inmates in the institution. There is an equal number of whites. There are 48 life-termers.
These men make up a little world unto themselves. "Every man," says the warden, "is taught some trade and in addition to the regular tasks given each inmate, he has a chance to earn some money for himself or his family by doing extra work. Many leave here with larger bank accounts than they would ever accept and in life free to do as they choose.
Probably the large number work in the shops and foundry. A large volume of clothing is made each year in the institution. There is a good print shop here also, said the warden, as he handed the reporter a copy of the book he edited and printed in the institution.
One In Death Row
At the present time there is just one man in "death row." He is Hopkins Watkins, convicted of killing John King, a white man last October, and the murder was said to have been committed near there, robbery having been the supposed motive.
The date for the hanging has not been set by Governor Ritchie but Watkins for the death row, the row men Clowy and Sprague and the row men were executed some time ago. It was to Watkins that these men called a farewell as they marched to their doom. Place Cool With its thick stone walls the Maryland Penitentiary has a temperature far below that found outside of the building. The ventilation is good, there being four to six hydraulic suction and three electric fans in the wings of each building. While most of the welfare machinery set going by former Warden Sweezey has been discontinued, the interest of the men is being considered, according to Warden Sweezey, still recreation hours and times when the men enjoy baseball and other games. Warden Brady said relatives and friends are not only welcome, but the institution is glad to have them well rested. Prison baseball clubs and orchestras help men employ hours after work.

PHILLY WHITES ATTACK HOME OF ATTORNEY
Vandals Frightened Off First Time By Caretaker; Return To Assault
MILK BOTTLES USED TO SMASH WINDOWS
Police Arrest Three After Chase—Two Others Escape
PHILA., PA. — Three windows were smashed with milk bottles and both front and rear doors pried open at the home of Raymond Pace Alexander, a lawyer, 1798 Jefferson St.
The vandals, early one morning this week, visited the Alexander home a second time after they had been frightened away by a nineteen-year-old caretaker. On their second attempt, police arrested three of them, while two others escaped. At the 19th and Oxford streets police station, the three men were charged with trunkness and disorderly product.
Moore, a policeman, heard the crash of breaking glass on the second visit, and when he reached the house saw three men running east on Jefferson street. He pursued them, and at the street area he Michael Quinn, thirty-two; George Wege, twenty-six; and Frank McCahey, thirty-sight, all white, of Bouvier street, near Master.
Mr. Alexander wired the AFRO, Tuesday: "Reason for home attack is entirely unknown. The victim was a young man over one year enjoying-moss cordial relations. I am perfectly acquainted with majority of neighbors, most of them well-to-do merchants.
"However, we are on the corner of a small street, that has shown some hostility, though people on both main streets are cordial.
"Damage is limited to breaking windows on second floor and damage to library floor through falling misiles; however, caretaker was very careful. Now host of defenders have apologized and endeavored to get us to drop charges."

NO DISCORD AT FIRST
BAPT, SAYS OFFICIAL
That there are no factions nor discord at the First Baptist Church as some people were impressed, repressed, reelected or a pastor for that body, officers of that body declare.
Although the voting was spirted, the church and the occupations were dignified and Christian-like, says W. Cato Anderson in a letter.
Wrong Impression
The news story carried by the AWF about the church creates "creates in the mind of some people the wrong impression. As chairman of the pulpit committee, I feel there should be a revision of the church's certain notions, might be cleared up.
"I want to say that the pulpit committee of the First Baptist Church, the Rev. Mr. Young, desires to say that after careful and painstaking consideration made the report to the church recommending that he be placed up by the Young T. J. Johnson and Charles P. Harris. To add further names we felt would only lead to compiling the report by putting up the committee. This action should not be construed nor would we have it to mean alv underestimation of the committee's place being us since all of them are now successful pastors. We had to act so we acted. We had to act further the statement that the Rev. Mr. Young was a candidate before. He has never been voted on before by the First Baptist Church." "Another misle, lying statement of the atricle is the one about the resignation of the Mr. Stanley. In justice to Mr. Stanley, his action has any thing to do with the results of the election. I have not heard the content of his letter since it has not been placed on the church."
"Finally, there is no factional difference existing in the First Baptist Church. The gentlemen mentioned they had a right to do. All parties bowed to the wishes of the church. The meeting was most unpulsed in that it was the most dignified. Christ was the most in the history of the Baptist Church."

Pauline Jackson, Baltimore girl, in 3rd Wrigley Marathon Swim, Toronto, Canada
TORONTO, Canada—Miss Jackson carried the water in a state of overexcitement not in a position to fulfil his financial obligations, in connection with the race, and it became necessary, at the last moment, to make other arrangements. This, necessarily caused Miss Jackson so much worry that, on the day of the race, she was a state of amarous, collapse. Her performance stands from the fact that she out-classed such swimmers of note as Millie Cade, Corson, Denmark, Edith Hedin, Toronto: Millie Hudson, England; Miss Vogel, Switzerland; Lee Fourier, Long Beach, Canada; Miss Hugh Fowler, Ireland and Glenchee Barett, Myrtle Huddell, Bronx, N. Y. Out of 75 swimmer only 16 finished. Miss Jackson completed 6-1-2 miles of the 10 mile swim.

| WHAT BECOMES OF STAR ATHLETE
' AFTER COLLEGE GRADUATION

failed Them As Heroes. Back On * Does It Fay?
| The Campus Today They Would ee eae
Pass Students Unrecognized. tered Pats ish cle aa
Does the college athletic star retain his Nistr® &
graduation? Are his athletic connections of any ma-
ferial aid to him? What becomes of the heroes of court,
gridiron, diamond, and track when college days have
ended?
‘All over the country are to be found names that
were once the toasts of colleges, listed in directories
and running the gamut from veterinary surgeons to long
frocked ministers and from teachers and real estate
salesmen to Urban League secretaries. Some of them
are leaders, and some are just average men in the com-
munity.
“Ability to star on the football field is no assurance of
ubility to star in business or a profession. a
‘A good body, clean living, self confidence, quick think-
ing are however qualities developed in college athletics
which give them an advantage over the average man later
in life.
Star athletes make many more friendships in college
than the non-athletic student. These friends have frequent-
ly used their influence to make the star athlete a business
success.
Alexander Jackson, Harvard hurdler and once mention-
ed for captain of the track team owes much to his former
classmates. Bill Lewis, also of Harvard, Paul Robeson of Rut-
gers, Matt Bullock of Dartmouth made friends as a result
of athletic prowess. whose services since graduation have
always been at their command.
Noticeable it is that altho star athletes are mak-
ing good in life, few attain the pinnacle of unusual suc-
cess, few taste the wine of public plaudits when school
days are over.
“Terrible” Terry, Howard fullback is going thru
Tuskegee-line. This is back in 1910-11. Terry is a
giant. His legs move like pistons, red legged Tuskegee
warriors fall before him, He crosses the last white line
for a touchdown, amid the cheers of spectators. The
college is his. The head of the college offers him the
presidential chair, a fine courtesy like a French kiss
on the cheek or a gold key to the city. “Terrible” Terry
is today a mild physician, successful practioner, respec-
table head of a family. If he walked across Howard's
campus next month, he'd be hardly recognized, and in
real life, there have been no crowds to put him on their
shoulders and hail him as hero.
Zherelte the Granger boys, Lester,
Leo and “W. R.” (hore we didn't miss
any), who, romped about the cinder
paths, at gear old Dartmouth. "Las:

THE PASSING REVIEW
t By BILL GIBSON i
IS
WELL, WHAT DO, YOU THINK of Young Jack Thompson's knock-
out of Joe Dundee, welterweight champion of the world?
Probably no fight during. the year, the Tunney-Heeney scrap not
excepied, has created such a hullabaloo as that one in Chicago Thurs-
Gay night, ‘Thompson's regret that the fight was a non-title one should
be short-lived for Dundee upon his arrival here in Baltimore, states
that he is going to give Thompson another shot, this time at his crown,
in'New York sometime in November.
‘Interviewed in Baltimore, Dundee said: “I have signed a contract
‘with Rickard to Aght before’ his club, but the bout must be witn the
olored boy who poisoned me with that right-hand punch in Chicago.
He beat me fairly and squarely and 1 have no allbi to offer. 1 didn't
reallze his class until too late,
“But I feel that I can beat him, and T can hardly walt until the day
when We caw) into the ring again. it New York refuses to sanction
2 bout with ‘Thompson then 1'wili Aght him In Chicago, Baltimore,
California, or any other place willing to stage the event. Win or lose
‘want, Thompson and nobody else.”
‘Dundees statement that he’ wanted Thompson and “nobody else”
came as.2 result of the agitation by Sergeant Sammy Baker for a fight
‘with the champion. Baker has threatened to tie up Dundee's contract

‘Gamblers, in certain quarters, however, insist. that, ‘Thompson's
victory over Dundee had {ts root’ in the ‘Baltimore Italian's method
to buildup a big purse in Madison Square Garden and then give the
Coast battler the works. ‘They point to Dundee's loss in California to

Miss Lillian C. Stewart Was Hostess To A Number Of Friends At A "500" Party On Friday—Mrs. Annie S. Williams Gave A Surprise Party On Monday In Honor of Mrs. Edna Groomes — The Stork Visits Dr. And Mrs. John Leak—Students Flocking To The City In Time For School. Well, Pansy, Old Dear: The School Board surprised everybody last week and set the opening off two weeks. This, of course, adds a short period to the pre-school period of activity. Well, it was one time when parents, teachers and students all agreed that it was the best thing. Anyway, we have been working on tools on the children's faces, oh, boy. Perhaps the only disappointed souls were the out-of-town teachers who came to the appointment. Some of them were in the middle of the times of their life and you can understand what gloomy came over them when they weeks before they had to get here. So, to help clear away some of the gloom, Lillian Stewart found a few left-over dolls and staged a card party at her home Friday.
Lillian's Card Party
Charmed, indeed, were the guests that were bidden at Lillian's home on Friday morning. The guests were the scheme of rose and green were carried out, and the hostess in accordance, wearing a gown of green silk, while Miss Alma Prames: who assisted her, was attired in old dress. She hundred was played, after which a delicious repast was served. Helena Connor, who was the politeown Matte Connor was the next highest and was given a lovely silk vest, white Mabel Hayes ran close and was presented a pearl choker. Helena Connor wore a Stanley, Amelia Randall, Xaveria Fenwick, Eleanora Dalley, Isabel Sharp and Hazel Stewart. Sarah Pollard, of Philadelphia and Cathy Dalley, Isabel Sharp and Hazel certainly proved a delightful hostess.

"I knew of Black-Draught as a medicine for

so I thought I would try it.
For a while I took a small dose every night until my system was rid of the accumulated poison.
"I gained in weight and my general health was good. That experience made me realize the morale of Black-Draught. "Keep it in my heart and feel lifeless and I take a dose, after which I feel O. K. again.
"I try to keep my system cleansed, and I find Black-Draught a great aid."

Business League Survey Has Covered 25 Cities

With the four employees of the shoe factory operated by the Albert Industrial Corporation, the plant is ready to operate, having finished a course in training, the plant is ready for production, says the manager, Ed F. Golden. trained workers made it necessary at first to operate a finishing school. But this course is now completed, asserted Mr. Golden, and the factory is ready for production.
Demand
There is a demand for his products the manager said: the jobbers will be able to deal with a dealer especially, is waiting to place a large order with him. Up to the present, about 100 pairs of shoes on the market. The shoes come out chiefly children's shoes ranging in sizes from 8 to 11. The needs Capital The greatest challenge at present Mr. Krause is lack of capital. Better public co-operation and more stockholders will put the business in a firm footing. The room presents a business-like appearance. There is a row of machinery along one wall, and more machinery set up in a gallery. Benches are crowded with substantial looking children's shoes, while other working materials are stocked. Mr. Golden learned the trade of general leather work in Rock Island, Ill., and has had additional experience in shoe-making in factories in the Fask.

KANSAS CITY, Mo.—A false 1927 Survey claim, colored people affected by Alzheimers, thousands of colored servants out of work according to the "Kansas City Call."
"The 'Call' estimates about $1,000 a month is being spent on the Negro woman worker." Or the Negro "situations wanted" in her quest for domestic work. In the month of July just past 2.125 applications appeared for the Journal-Post and the Times and the Journal-Post.
The Globe-Democrat and Post-Dispatch, two leading news organizations, population two and a half times the size of Greater Kansas City, on August 19-20-21 show that $38 million is being worked by Negroes against 124 for the same three days in The Star alone! This condition is serious is generally acknowledged by leaders in the community. It has affected commercial and professional and business man. The money loss to Negroes is estimated at $10,000 to $40,000 a week as a result of the report of the Kansas City Turbulosis society showed an actual decrease in turbulosis among Dr. W. Thompkins said in his false survey:
"There are scores of flats and tenement houses in which housekeepers tuberculosis cases. These houses have not been remodeled, papered or painted from ten to fifteen years. There are neighborhoods of blight and bleakness in all of which have had one to ten cases of tuberculosis. There are families with one to four members with one to two children in a portion of the children in school and the other portion at home dying in filth from this disease. There are scores of homes where from four to seven people live in one to two children of women who are in service with two to three children at home with tuberculosis." A leading white citizen said to The Call: "Immediately after the newspapers came out with their statement of health conditions among Negroes, as shown in the book of J. W. Thompson, every one of my neighbors discharged every Negro servant in his employ."

GOOD MORNING JUDGE
A Fight To End This Fight
Evidently John Camphor, 511 Pine Street, believes the late President Wilson, that there can be wars to be waged. Wilson, his sister, Miss Mary Camphor, and Miss Cecilia Bryant, his sister, Miss Bryant police station several days ago after police had made them declare a truce in what seemed to be a general strike. Although Camphor and his sister were well and sound in body, Miss Bryant presented him with marks on the face, "Well, this looks bad," said the Magistrate.
"Judge," explained Camphor, "My sister did this girl got into a quarrel and the only thing I did was to try to make peace between them." "Evidently," he instructed the magistrate, "to the police officer of Mrs. Bryant again, $25 and costs."
Some Are For Better; But This Was Worse
"For better or for worse until death do us go," he said. Mary Chase, 1460 Mosher street, who brought her woes to the Northwestern police station. "Judge," she said, "the limit is shore here," pointing to her husband, who was killed 18 months and he has given me three dollars one time and five another. But that's not all. He came to the house and sold the bed we were sleeping on."
"It's your turn to talk," said the Magistrate, looking at Chase.
"I can't tell as good a tale as that," she said. "But I did give her money twice." And now husband Chase is being held for court under $100 bail and

Who lived in Baltimore all his life and was a faithful member of Mad-
tson Street Church.’ Just before he died he.went off suddenly to Pough-
keepsie. N. Y., entered a hospital. joined the Catholic church and in 2
death bed will forgot his sister and other friends to whom he had promised
part of his $30,000 estate. 5
Heirs still struggle over the will. Not a soul has gotten a peony since
he died in 1923. .

: Lae 2 5
| “Who will get the $30,000 estate of the late Wil-
! liam H. J. Wheeler?” :
This question was asked by the AFRO-AMERICAN .
more than five years ago—to be exact—on June 22,
.. 1923. Today it asks the same question for the celebrat-
\. ed Wheelér case is still unsetfled. - :
MORSE HAD $70,090
A similar and equally as interesting case that has a-
roused interest of the people of Baltimore is that of Dr. John
Willis Morse, of Washington, D. C., who wed Miss Alice
M:. Chandler, .of that city, but formerly a Baltimore girl,
Just fifteen niinutes before his death on March 2, 1927.
NORMAN DEATHBED WILL
Still another deathbed will case that closely rivals
the Wheeler case is that of the Rev. Dr. W. O. Norman,
fate pastor of Metropolitan Baptist Church, Washing-
ton, who married Miss Ethel Fitzhugh.
Mr. Wheeler, who conducted a bar-
ber shop for over 50 years at 1114 N.
Howard street, this city, catering to
white teade only, in his life-time, gave
2 house, 1131 Etting street, and his
shop and equipment to Charles Jack-
son. head barber for 35 years, and his
right-hand man. The rest of _ his
roperty was to go to his sist~ Mrs.
Powell, of Atlantic City, and
3 nephew.
Things Happen
‘Then things began to happen. Mr.
Wheeler was 88. In court, his sis-
ter charged Mrs. Wheeler and a sis-
ter-in-law, Georgine _ Kelly-Smith,
took ddvantig: of the cold man strick«
ca with” paralysis, lured him to
Poughkeepsie. put him in the hospi-
tal and got from him a death-bed
bee giving them control of his prop-
erty.
‘The two women then came back to
Baltimore, it was said, pene ag Mr,
Wheeler dying in Poughkeepsie, and
out bo sell the real estate,
ne bill also states that: the wom-
en worked hurriedly, using taxicabs
to transact liecir business. and‘ re-
cetved a $500 Seposit from Robert
Fess, a Jew, to whom they sold one
of the houses, and $500 from Charles
H. Johnson, 519 Robert street, to
whom they sold another house,
Both men are said to have de-
manded thoir purchase money back
from Mrs. Smith, who, it is said. re-
fused to return it.
Conveys Property to Sister
Mrs, Wheeler, without any yaluabte
consideration, the bill recites, con-
veyed most of the property. to her
sister, Mrs, Smith, who now claims
title fo.it by the pretended deeds and
ia trying to d'!-> se of them.
On April 20. 1927 Mrs. Wheeler
and her sister were denied a new trial
by Judge Seeger and It was thought
that the case would go to the Court
of Appeals.
Now five years after the death of
Mr. Wheeler. with hotly contested le-
gal battles in the interim, the ques-
tion still remains.
WHO WILL GET THE WHEELER
ESTATE? Why did Mr. Wheeler
leave Baltimore to die. Why did he
a life-long Presbyterian, join the
Catholic church on his deathbed.
Dr. Morse, who was 46 years old
The Strange: Morse Case
at the time of his death. was pro-
prictor of a drug store at 9th and
L etreets, Washington.
One day before his death he was
granted a divorce in Baltimore from
his wife, Mrs. Rosalie Morse, now liv-
ing at 3910 Euctid avenue, Chicago,
with thetr 11-year-old daughter. Mu-
sette V.
$70,000 Estate
Dr. Moore's estate was valued at
870.000. In lis will he bequeathed his
4wo-hour bride one third of hig en-
Ure estate including monies in bank,
life insurance policies, stocks and
bond certificates. household effects
and an automobile.
To hig. daughter, he willed his real
property at 1100 Nineteenth street,
northwest, vained at $50,000, and one-
nalf of the contents of @ box of rare
coins and currency in his safe.
Other bequests from $5 to $500 were
left relatives, Howard University, the
National Training School for Girls
and Women, Nineteenth Street Bap-
tist Church. and Dr. Lea A. Walker,
Denied New Trial
Re orth to ee UE pees
‘The will is dated February 26, 1927,
and was witnessed by Mrs. Ruth
Cumber and James P. Cumber.
Contests Will
On June 18th, his daughter filed
suit through her guardian, Miss Nan-
nie Burroughs, principal of the Na-
tional Training School for Girls and
Women, in Washington, contesting
the validity of his will.
She charged that the will was exe-
cuted under the undue influence of
Mrs. Aline C. Morse, and while Dr.
Morse was incapable of making a val-
id will. She also charged fraud and
coercion by Mrs. Chandler-Morse.
More than a year has passed and
this case is still unsettled.
D. C. Pastor Married On His
Death Bed
Dr. Norman had been ill for over
five months and on July 20th, was
stricken with a throat ailment, three
days late he was married to Miss
Fitzhugh who had been employed in
the Norman family for years, and his
death-bed will dated “ August 9th
leaves his entire estate to his wife
with the exception of $300 which was
bequeathed to his nice, Mrs. Lenora
Rufiiin-Hines, who lives at Whitelaw
Hotel. .
The Rev. Mr. Norman once de-
clared from his pulpit that he would
never marry anyone. :
Niece Files Suit
In April last, Mrs. Hines filed suit
in the District Supreme Court to re-
strain Mrs. Norman, his widow, from
conveying encumbering or transfer-
ing the property at No. 1933 Thir-
teenth street, the home in which
Mrs. Norman lives, and to require
the widow to account for the rents
received by her from this property.
Mrs. Hines claimed she was entitled
to all the real estate which the Rev.
Norman owned at the time of his
death, subject to ‘the dower rights of
Mrs. Norman, in the absence of any
valid disposition of this property.
She charges the' widow with exert-
ing undue influence upon the Rev.
Norman is having him ‘execute a deed
conveying the Thirteenth strecet
property to her.
Mentally Incapable
The Rev. Mr. Norman became sud-
denly ill on July 19, 1926. and from
then until his death December 26th,
Mrs. Hines states, he-remained in a
weakened and debilited condition
and was mentally incapable of trans-
acting any business.
‘The Wheeler will case, with these
two similar cases is ctill in court.

Watt Terry was born in Mecklen-

grandfather had been a slave. He
does not know his exact age, be-

way to Brockton, where he landed
with but 15 cents in his pres He

Costumes Below Expose The Forbidden Floating Ribs
Seashore Police Say Floating Ribs Must Be Covered Up
XX
Is it, or is it not, proper to reveal the floating rib when in a bathing suit? And, when otherwise fully clothed, is it, or is it not, allowable to attend church without stockings? In other words, just what does constitute nudity? And who is to be the one to decide that momentous question?
Costume propriety has become the burning question of the day.
VIRTUALLY NAKED IN ATLANTIC CITY
Shocked by parading of bathers of both sexes about the streets of Atlantic City in scanty attire, some of them "virtually naked," Mayor Ruffu and the City Commission announced yesterday that stringent regulations governing the matter would be adopted for next summer.
No action will be taken this season, it was said, because it is nearly over, except that the ordinance forbidding bathers to go to and from the beach without covering, and known as the Mackintosh law, will be more strictly enforced.

It seems only yesterday that young women spent hours making themselves pretty to attract the men. The adjusting of the coiffure alone took about an hour and a half while considerable time was spent in practicing gestures, smiles and other means of enchanting boy friends.
But, sad to relate, that day has gone, or going fast.
The modern boy, friend, unlike his antiquated, chivalrous brother, no longer seeks the companionship of the opposite sex, but he is so vain as to think that the opposite sex should seek his company. His highest ambitions are to shower himself with glory and fame.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST
Party Costs Depend On Menu, And Decoration Costs Most On Number Of Guests—Sarah Fernandis Tells Of Parties That Cost From One Dollar To $150.
In the days of our grandmothers, the name "Party" usually presupposed a great array of clothes, simple refreshments and formal manners—but not so today.
Anything from the bunch that junior brings home from High School and entertains with dancing, with no refreshments—to the crowd of folks who gather around when sister's engagement is announced, while wafers and tea are passed, is a party. Then too, when mother and three of her chums play cards and sister thinks and makes them some wishy washy lemonade and quick cake, it becomes a party.
Four or five tables of Bridge with tally cards, score cards, and prizes to think of, besides a menu of salad, rolls, olives, ices, cakes, punch, candies and nuts to be served is most assuredly a party.
with the cake, after which, the punch ices and cakes. There you have a complete real party and couldn't to save your neck get away with less money.
The formal dance that makes you buy a new dress, besides the cost of invitations, the hall, the orchestra, the decorations, plenty of punch to be served the entire evening, fancy cakes and ices and assorted mints, plus hiring a man or so to do the serving, is certainly without the asking a party.
The $1 Party
The party with just wafers and tea, served to six friends can cost every bit of one dollar to one dollar and a quarter for you see, there are your sliced lemons, tea, loaf sugar and five or six dozen wafers at 15c per dozen, or little home made cookies; and could easily serve from twelve to thirty guests as a social gathering, an "at home" and at card clubs.
House Dance
A house dance, for forty or fifty guests, can easily be served with just lemonade and assorted cakes or home made layer cake, and someone at the piano, and if you happen to have a Victrola, the party goes right on without the latter expense, and there you have a big party and entertain all your friends for the small sum of about $3. If you have to pay for the music we will say then $5.00, and with fewer guests, this sum can be shaved down.
Big Affairs
But the real big affairs call for everything the doctor orders, and cost money. — A card party for instance, of ten to twelve tables, tally cards at, a dollar a dozen, score pads at 25c a piece; first prize about $2; second prize, $1.50; and the third prize, $1.00; and you haven't even started. Menu of small dishes of nuts and candies to be enjoyed during the game of cards; then later, the plates of salad consisting of either crab, shrimp, fruit, chicken or potato; sliced small Smithfield ham, olives and roll, placed on the plate
companion, she thinks nowadays that she is his superior, and to be exact, she is not very far from being right.
Back in 1915 when a boy wanted the next dance with a girl, he very ceremoniously bowed and asked in his most cultured tone, "Will you honor me with the next dance?" Nowadays, cowboys lean against the wall until a prospective victim passes, then he commands in his most collegiae air "come on, sister, let's shake a foot." Romance is dying slowly, but surely. Now and then (mostly then) I am fortunate enough to find adherents to the old ways but they are very few and far between.

If a club is entertaining it becomes less on the individual.
Formal Dance
Last, but not least, the formal dance given by just one person who feels she wants, to pay off all her social debts. Figure on a new dress, say about $15; the cost of your invitations for two hundred or more guests; for $5; the hall, $25; an orchestra of six or seven pieces at $4 per man and $5 for the director; your decorations of hired plants and palms and favors, including all to be about $20; besides, good punch, plenty of it, ices and cakes and the services of two hired men. $150 would be about the smallest cost of just such an affair.
Now for twice the number of guests at the same hull, having the same orchestra, with no decorations, no menu, except refreshing punch no formal dress you could easily get by on $70. And so again, cost of parties depends on how...u give them and where you give them more than on the number of people you invite

Poem This Week
Don't Fear
Stand up like men and do not fear. Look up to yonder skv so clear. So blue, so sweet, and doubt not man Is in the love that marks its span. Stand up and let your eyes behold The glory that the skies unfold, The splendid peace they seem to give And then toil on, and smile, and live. Stand up and let your heating breast Hold still a heart of faith and rest, That, as the sparrow:, so shall we Be marked by Him where'er we flee.
I shall walk whatever path
My feet may have to tread
With laughter and with singing
So my conscience be not dead.
For he who keeps his conscience still
Shall rise from where he falls,
And mount again the golden hill,
And scale again the walls.
And if he suffers and is sad,
What may that be but truth
Come with its soul of sun made glad
To bring the boon of youth.

STELLA HUNTER, DAVIS
Until I knew little Myra I never realized what was meant by a living death.
Her mother, Naomi Payne, was a beautiful brown woman with a mouth that seemed willing to smile, were it not for her sad eyes that seemed to forbid. And often as she looked at Myra, out of these sad-looking eyes, great tears rolled. For always when she looked at her daughter there came to her the memory of a day when she had ignored advices of friends calling down as it were, curses on the head of her unborn child. She wondered if her affliction was merely a freak of nature, or the result of the breaking of a law.
Naomi had not always been this sad, pathetic creature, the neighbors told me. She had come to Towson, a laughing happy girl, to work in a village family, and the young farmers there-a-bout vied with each other for her favor. She was the very life of the community in those days. If a church entertained she always took part on Sunday, she assisted in the Sunday School and no picnic was complete without her. Then Bob Payne, who had spent five years in Pittsburgh, came home. A thoroughly modern young man. From the first it seemed to be a love match between Naomi and Bob.
When the news of their approaching marriage reached the ears of Naomi's mature friends, several of them summed up enough courage to ad vise Naomi. In well-chosen words they explained to Naomi the extent to which Bob had sown his wild-oats. All to which Naomi turned a deaf ear. Old Doctor Wright had violated his professional oath to warn her. He wanted her to profit by his experience.
Their wedding was a gala affair, all the country-side was present. The eating, dancing, merry-making, lasted into the early hours of the morning. Upon the return from their honey-moon they began house-keeping in a neat four-room cottage near town.
Bob surprised all the villagers by seeming to actually settle down. In the summer he made garden, built fences or painted around, keeping his place ultra neat. Naomi planted flowers, picked berries, did her share in the garden and still found time to assist in the church activities.
One day Doctor Wright was summoned hastily and toward morning little Myra was born. It is hard to tell who fought the greatest fight. Naomi or her physician. For whereas she was taxed physically to the point of giving up — the Doctor was under a mental strain equally as great. Should he try to force life into this little body or should he leave it lifeless.
Would it be demanded by law of him to give an account, knowing as he did that this little mite of humanity might forever be a charge upon the state. He reviewed the case of another family. An imbecile, now fifteen years of age, a hopeless case in the state institution, came of this union.
But little Myra had without assistance, breathed, and there was nothing left for the doctor and nurse to do but give her first aid, bathe and dress her.
In less than six months it was generally known that baby Myra was not normal. Somehow Bob seemed to feel worse over it, and Naomi had grown chronically sad.
To Bob came a recollection of an episode in his life that he thought was forever closed — a questionable woman — week-end trips, his trip to Doctor Wright. The sins of the father visited upon an innocent babe. They took this babe to the best doctors, but usually the verdict was discouraging. There were long rides to the clinic — bills at the hospital, but little Myra showed no improvement. She was now five years old, had never learned to talk, showed no inclination to walk, had never learned to use her hand. Naomi's heart was heavy and continually she tried to conclude, whether Myra's condition was just a freak of nature, or was she the reaper of another's oats.
Often Naomi took Myra in her little wheel-chair to the playground that she might watch the other children play. And as the baby watched the other children play, it would turn its full gaze upon Naomi as if to question her. Her eves seemed to say - Why am I thus? Who is responsible for this?
It was at these times that Naomi's heart was heaviest. If only she had

taken the advice of her more mature friends, probably, her child would n ever have been so afflicted. To what extent are we responsible for our children's health," she reasoned. As a rule she consoled herself by concluding, that some afflictions are the result of sin, others are the result of nature's discordance.
One morning baby Myra was ill very ill... The Doctor shook his head as he felt her pulse, great tears stood in Bob's eyes. And all that day and the next, Naomi kept vigil. She loved this little mite of humanity that God had intrusted to her care, and her love was blended with sympathy.
Upon the second floor at 826 N. Carey street is a room lined with pictures, signed and carefully framed documents, and many mementos on tables. It is the study of Dr. Ernest Lyon, Liberian Minister to the United States and pastor of Ames M. E. Church.
The general public, of course, knows Dr. Lyon as a fighting pastor and diplomat. but an acquaintance, with his study will convince one that his history holds the record of many extraordinary experiences.
A.
One of the Doctor's highly prized mementos is a government souvenir program. of the International Radio Telegraph Conference, held in Washington
Dr. Lyon
for ten weeks, during October and November, 1927. The program is printed in French.
79 Nations
Seventy-nine nations were represented at the Conference. Dr. Lyon and the representative of Haiti were the only race men in the group. The Ames pastor says that he attended the social functions during the sessions, which included a dinner at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York, one at Carvel Hall in Annapolis, and another given by the American Telegraph and Telephone Company, in Washington.
The walls of the room are covered
Three days she watched beside the little bed.
The fourth morning the child's spirt took its flight, and many were the tears the neighbors shed over its tiny lifeless form. Its passing was as the lifting of a great weight from Naomi's shoulders.
In her eyes there were no tears, she could not shed a tear. A little spirit had been released from the afflicted body. To see her year after year, a helpless, deficient, human, her brain inactive was worse than her death. Instead of tears she felt: that she ought to say — "Truly God, thou dost all things well."

with framed college diplomas, diplomatic communications, telegrams and secret order certificates. There is one collection of 25 badges, including the insignia of the 33rd degree Mason:
There are letters signed by the U. S. Secretary of State, letters from the Liberian Department of State, and a diploma from the College of Liberia, conferring the degree of L. L. D. Diplomas from Wiley University in Marshall, Texas, and New Orleans University, confer the degrees of A. B., and A. M., respectively.
There are many letters bearing the State seal of the American and Liberian governments; there are the diplomatic endorsements of former Presidents Taff and Roosevelt. The doctor's naturalization papers are also a prized memento.
One photograph is of the group of race leaders, called for war work by the late President Wilson; another shows the delegates to the Radio Telegraphic Conference, a third the American Legation in Monrovia, Liberia.
The diplomat displays a diploma making him a Knight Commander of the Liberian Humane Order of African Redemption and there is also the silken ribbon and bronze medallion of the same order. Not the least prized of his possessions is a government telegram notifying him to prepare to leave for a mission to Liberia on board the U. S. S. Birmingham. He has also framed the menu and guest list commemorating the dinner given in 1909, in honor of himself and the late Bishop I. B. Scott. Arranged along the walls is a large
TED
Is Your Kid As Meek As Moses?
FLORENCE SHELBY
My dear Helen:
I am so glad you wrote me about little George. Yes, indeed, a child may be "too good", as you say. It is of course not exactly goodness, this giving up to other so easily. Like many virtues, meekness carried to an extreme becomes a failing—an imperfection of character.
Nor, can you begin too early to educate your boy in this regard. It should be before he ever becomes conscious of his weakness. It is so very much harder to overcome a failing, you know, if you once get the notion that you were "just naturally born that way" — and can't help it. I remember once going to the Post Office with one of my own little daughters. She, thought it a great adventure to buy me a dine's worth of stamps at the window, while I was busy with other mail. It happened that I finished before the long "line" in which she waited her turn brought her next at the window.
Just behind her came a tall, exceedingly self-important man and instead of waiting for the child to make her purchase first, as was her right by all odds, he started to state his order over her head. Neither of them knew that I was looking on.
The child was stepping meekly aside when I interfered. "Martha, you are next." I said gently but clearly and with assurance, my eye on the pompous usurper. And he waited his turn.
The point, of course, is not that I won out, but that it gave me a chance to teach my little daughter to hold her own. Hours of "talk" would not have opened the eyes of her understanding as did that little experience.
Very carefully. I tried to show her afterwards that if the man had been old or sick, it would have been lovely for her to say, "Won't you go first, Sir?". but that that "next turn" was hers to give, not his to snatch.
Again Martha always had a way of waiting on all the children with whom she played — exactly as little George does. Who wouldn't im-

pose upon such good nature? And it is really a problem to teach children of that type to hold their own, for one would not wish to quench entirely the beautiful kindliness of spirit which animates them. It is something you cannot teach George in a minute, Helen. Something, in fact, that he very likely will be years mastering. It will be a real help if you make it clear to him that he cannot suffer injury without having the wrong reflected upon those nearest and dearest to him. If you just open his eyes to the sense of justice it requires to be fair to himself — exactly the same as he would to some other boy. — you have done your part. The individual must do its own growing.
Write me again, dear, and don't crowd your little man with too many precepts. Bless his wee, human heart!
Sincerely yours,

Oo Sixty-six years ago the United States had not yet
. freed its slaves. The Civil War was on.
One group of abolitionists said free the slave and
, make him a full citizen like everybody else.
: Another group said let’s free him, but send him back
0 his own country, for if he stays here, whites will still find
‘ way to keep him in various kinds of slavery.
To this second group belonged whites who formed the
American colonization society with the idea of sending black
Americans back to Liberia and Haiti. In this project they
were 60 years ahead of Marcus Garvey. Abraham Lincoln
at one time favored the plan.

Bishop Wall's Charges Reopen Zion Conference Feud
PHILADELPHIA. Pa. — (ANP.)—Sensational charges made last week by Bishop R. W. Wall against Bishop W. Kyles of the M. M. Church, that he had merelyrecked the last General Conference of the church in St. Louis.
28 Cases Of Irregularity
At the conference Bishop Jones represented 28 cases of alleged irregularity. Bishop Kyles replied without giving dates and specification, claiming that he had claimed to have in his possession:
Dr. S. G. Atkins, former secretary of education, believing that the continuance of the matter would cause a riot of confusion in the general church, required adjustment of the session. It was voted. Bishop Kyles dealt with only eight of the articles in Bishop Jones' accusations, but the data of neither Bishop Jones nor Bishop Kyles was required to a committee of investigation.
Close Of Conference
The General Conference closed without the majority of the delegation being satisfied with the whole matter.
In order to preserve peace, it was agreed that Bishop Kyles return to the church with Dr. W. H. Hoefer, financial secretary, and he was entrusted also with the chairmanship of the Commodore's office and discipline of the General Conference, but Bishop Kyles was removed from the chairmanship of the Commodore's office and board of Brooklyn, and was appointed to succeed him. Bishop Kyles had asked to be continued in these places because a removal would seem to be necessary. Jones, the whole matter was compromised and the fight ceased, upon Bishop Kyles' profession that he was church.
Reopened
In eighteen days after the General Conference Bishop Kylus published the book *The Man who maunder to defend himself*, to suppress the facts, and to discredit the leaders who took a position that threatened the financial affairs of the church. Forty omissions and errors have been counted with important legislation omitted. In the *Bishops' Council Wednesday* Bishop Walls called attention to this irregularity and asked the church to explain what *t he called "the unmerited hand."*

Jealousy Said To Have Brot
On Gruesome Tragedy
Of Month Ago
For the second time a man thought to have been William Simmons, wanted for brutally murdering his wife in a fit of jealousy on August 1, came back to the scene of the crime and eluded a police cordon thrown around the place Friday afternoon.
Officers had rushed to the place a few minutes after they received a a tip that a man had entered the vacant house where the crime was committed and when the cordon had been thrown around the house a minute search revealed only a freshly tied package of clothing which the fugitive is believed to have left in his hasty departure.
Had Help
Because this is the second time a man believed to have been Simmons was seen entering the house at 1703 W. Lafayette avenue, police believe that some friend must have been assisting him. His sudden and almost ghost-like appearance in the neighborhood when officers are not in immediate vicinity of the house, can be explained only by the belief that he is being posted from some area.
Several residents in the block, however, are cooperating with officers and it has been from tips of this kind that they, have rushed to the scene with the hope that they had surrounded the fugitive.
Crime Brutal
The crime which Simmons is alleged to have committed was a brutal one. On the evening of August 1, a boarder in the Simmons home returned home from work and found a trail of blood and several teeth strewn along a stairway leading to the cellar. There he found Mrs. Simmons' body with I. skull crushaln in and her body horribly beaten with an iron pipe found nearby. The husband disappeared.
husband displeased Since then the house has been vacant and police have kept nightly watch.

Bare Legs Not Likely To Become School Problem
Baltimoreans Express Themselves On Issue That Plagued Washington, D. C. And California Schools.
If young women go about the parental authority, and not the streets and to school with bare legs, that is the concern of their parents and not the Board of Education, asserted a number of officials of the Parent-Teacher Association of the District of Columbia last week.

African savages who go nearly nude are more modest than the average. civilized person fully clothed. Mere Man William Gibson, Sports editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN, speaking for mere man, says:
"I see nothing immoral about bare legs. In fact, they will attract less attention in time than legs encased in chiffon hose. Leg coverage, as I see it, should be protected in the same manner that gloves protect the hands and arms. Wear hose, if necessary, when the weather demands. The entire matter, however, is one of individual preference.
A Pastor Speaks
The Rev. C. S. Briggs, pastor of Centennial M. E. Church, viewed the fad as the parents' concern. He says, "If the parents of school girls and them to go in public without stockings, I don't see why the public should worry about it."
Mrs. Carol Murpury, of 1050 Myrtle avenue, mother of five girls of school age, thinks there is only one big question which parents and teachers should concern themselves, namely that children form right attitudes about life's questions. Eliminate sex ignorance and there will never be any need to worry about how many or how few clothes children wear."
Mrs. T. H. Ke.r
Mrs. Kenderson Kerr, of 1907 Division street, considers the fad indecent and is not in favor of it.

Mrs. Harry F. Brown, of 1835 Madison avenue, of School 112 Parent-Teacher Club, says from the standpoint of her own girls, she thinks bare legs immodest, even in the home. In the swimming pool or gymnasium, bare legs are perfectly in order.
Mrs. Norman E. McIndor, president of Columbia Junior High Parent-Teacher Association in Washington, D. C. viewed the fad from different angles. At first she treated saying that it was one of those "useful gestures by which the girls seek to express themselves." Furthermore, she said, only minute observation would reveal any difference between legs that are natural and those covered with filmsy hose.
Then, in a more serious vein, she said there have been always "foolish virgins" who follow every fad. Her faith in the youth of the country, however, is such that she does not believe they will go far wrong.
In California
She predicted an early end to the fad in Washington. For the past three summers the young women in California have discarded stockings, only to do them in the winter. It is the matter of personal good taste and most of the girls have it. The few that haven't, go the extreme in all styles.
CLIMATE WITH 5 P. C. IN TUBERCULOSIS CURE
Dr. John G. Day, Canadian T.
B. Specialist On A Visit Home
CRITICISES DRY LAW
Modified Dry Laws Should Precede Prohibition
"We used to think that climate figured 75 per cent in the cure of tuberculosis, we estimate it now at five per cent," Dr. John G. Day, Canadian specialist, told the AFRO-AMERICAN Monday.
Dr. Day is chief of three departments, including bacteriology, X-Ray in Muskoka sanitarium, Ontario Canada, a white institution treating 700 patients annually.
He is a graduate of Baltimore High School in 1906 and attended the University of Pittsburgh, before graduating from Howard Medical School in 1911. He is now a Canadian citizen. His wife was the former Miss Grace Hardy of this city. He returned home Wednesday.
Treatment of tuberculosis, Dr. Day said, speaking from 13 years of experience at Muskoka, where he is senior department head, depends little upon medicines and more upon rest, diet and suspension. Muskoka prescribes six different grades of rest, varying from absolute confinement to bed day and night, to the point where patients are given the freedom of the sanitarium grounds.
Dry Laws
Commenting upon the prominence of the prohibition problem in the U. S., Dr. Day said, this country's change from the open saloon to a tight prohibition has been two sudden. A five year trial to light wines and beer, he declared, would have been the first step in form with more drastic regulation later.
Drunkenness
Drunkenness, he declared, is an institution peculiar to the states. A Frenchman spends an hour over a bottle of wine and a German two hours over his beer. The Americans, alone, seek to discover how much and how fast they can drink.
Americans, he said, are almost the only persons noted drunk on the streets of Ontario. For $2 they obtain a government permit, under which they secure unlimited amounts of liquor.
Canadian citizens, he said, must register name and amount of wages, and are permitted to purchase from the government only so much liquor as is in keeping with their SAL-ARIES. Should they withdraw more liquor than this, their permits are reyoked.

Debate Over 2 Hours
Postponement of the opening date
from September 5th to 17th came
after a discussion of the infantile
analysis situation in the city which
lasted more than two and one-half hours.
A. number of delegations representing parent-teacher associations of white schools were present to peek at the board to keep the schools closed
Dr. C. Hampson Jones, Commissioner of Health, made a bitter fight to open the schools, saying that there was no epidemic of the disease in Baltimore at the present time. He further advised that in his judgment it was better from the standpoint of the public health of the city that the schools should be opened. In order that there may be no loss of school days, the board decided to postpone the closing of the school from June 19, 1929, to June 28, 1929, so that the full school year of 190 school days will be afforded to each child. Better Off In School During the discussion it was pointed out that the spread of the disease would be lessened if the children were in school because the teacher that they would be under the watchful eye of teachers in school nurses and physicians, and while out of school is impossible to keep them isolated, and as a result they play in the streets together and especially is this true in homes where both parents are compelled to work away from home.

MAKING PAPER MONEY
It is said paper money was first used in China. It was made from the bark of the mulberry tree, stained black and stamped in red.
Today paper money is in very common use. One dollar in paper can be had for ten dimes or four quarters. Do not waste your small change.
