Following his call, police went to the scene of the killing and immediately began a search for Emanuel Long, husband of the dead woman. On information furnished police by Emanuel Long, he was insanely jolous of his wife, and that several fights had ensued as a result. The last time Mrs. Brown was seen by neighbors, she had been sitting about 10:30 p. m. Emanuel Long was last seen entering his home about 6:30, his usual time to arrive home from work. The quietness of the murder is surprising as there are several neighbors in the during the entire Tuesday evening.

MARCUS GARVEY 50 LIVES ARE PREDICTS U. S. ENDANGERED IN REVOLUTION BAPTISM CRASH
PETITION PREPAR'D FOR LEAGUE OF NATIONS
LONDON, ENGLAND,
(By J. A. Rogers.)—Only a bloody revolution in America can keep the Negro, declared Marcus Garvey in an interview for the Afro-American.
Garvey, U. N. I. A. head, imprisoned in Atlanta, paroled and deported occupied with arrests. Garvey and a secretailed suburban dwelling in suburban London.
"The whit man is soulless" said Garvey. "Because of the Jew, whose philanthropy is advertisement to covert the truth," he added. "Elders of Zion teach that harm done by a Jew to a Gentile is no harm at all, and the Negro is a Gentile." "Beware of white philanthropy The man who makes you will break you." "Beware of misgement. The future of the Negro is in Africa not America. If America respected Negroes it would never have gone into America. America would rather have induced Negroes to go into Haiti and develop it." Garvey's petition to the League attacks President King of Liberia and the Firestone Company. Fuller account of Garveys news which he does not hesitate now to put that will be printed in next week's AFRO.

The part of the roof which caved in covered a shed some 75 feet long by 12 feet wide. It was built of 4-4 mm thick concrete and covered with taper paper. Considerable damage to hedges, bushes and flowers surrounding the pool was also done by attempts of the larger team to get near enough to the battling.
Parade Preceeds
The baptizing was preceded by a monster parade in which around 700 people, including children, street, where the revival services had been held, and marched outake, were held in a field behind the Whitlock through the McCulloh. Brooks Lane and Madison avenue to the park entrance. By the time the park, the park, it had increased to 3,000.
Marse S. Calloway led the parade, his automobile carrying purple flowers, and the oldest church." Then followed three thousand men, woven and children singing "Lead Me to the Water to be Baptized." He for baptism brought up the rear. The men wore black gowns while the women and children wore white cross caps and hats. The children served as head coverings. The youngest candidate seemed to be 10 years of age while the oldest was around

Reserves were called out from the Northern police station before order was re-released by the Rev. C, P. Dixon, preached by the Rev. C, P. Dixon. Every inch of available space inside the pool inclosure was packed and the crowd around the place extended back into the pool ground.
Many Climbed Trees
Following the short sermon, the Rev. W. W. Allen and Rev. C. P. Dixon, preached by the Rev. Mr. Allen emerging the men while the women were emersed by the evangelist.
Amid crys of "amen" and massed singing 88 men and 36 women were baptized. Several times during the sermon, the swooped either in religious fervor or fainted from exhaustion. There was some shouting both among the newly baptized converts as well as members of the help of officers of the church to con trol the shouting of some of the candidates as they left the pool.
Superintendent Jones estimated damage to park shubbery as of small consequence since he intends to remove the shrubs this fall and the trees which will make the pool visible from the roadway. The shed will be repaired.

ARMOND SCOTT REFUSES PLACE ON G. O. P. COMMITTEE
NOT BRAINLESS SHEEP, WON'T VOTE HOOVER
Armond Scott In Bitter Letter Declines Post On G. O. P. Committee
"SOMETHING ROTTEN IN DENMARK" HE D'CLARES
mendment
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Armond W. Scott, attorney in declining a place on the G. O. P. Advisory Committee, wrote Chairman Hubert Work-the bitterest letter yet received.
Others who have declined publicly include: R. R. Church, Tennessee; Finley Wilson, D. C.; Naval Thomas D. C.; others declined privately. Mr. Scott's letter reads: Hon. Hubert Work. Chairman of the Republican Nat. Comm. Building, Washington, D. C. A few weeks ago, I received a formal invitation from you to become a member of the Advisory Committee of the colored end of the Republican Campaign Commit-
I took the matter under advisement for some days, but finally came to the conclusion that we needed blood Negroes of this country, to show their righteous resentment against a party which we have served and followed or over the business sheep, following to slaughter, so called leaders whose only purpose and ambition was to save their own hides and secure possession of the land, and when I further considered the fact, that either through bad judgment or ill advice, you ignored, or maintained, the leaders of our country, who have constituents who follow them, and in their stead, selected leaders of the uneducated District of Columbia to show the experienced and outstanding leaders like Robert R. Church, of Memphis, Tenn.; Peter D. DeFrieir, of Chicago; and Bob of Chicago, and hundreds of others whose names I could mention. I feel it is about time that we help you by being known "the file of the Negro voters of this country, so that the next time you will not repeat this blunder."
Men. Not. The time about come when the color of a man's skin should no longer be an index to his politics, and the Negroes have learned the lesson, to vote for men instead of measures, and "**r**" who believe in every amendment of the Constitution, the United States.
Jim Crow A Kansas City
We have not forgotten the treaty at Kansas City of the last few Negro leaders who were there to appear in Court in our behalf. There they were Jim-Crow, the first and in addition to the same, the stage was set to drive from the councils of the Republican party, the Negroes remaining of our group. In furtherance of this fnearable and contemptible scheme, Walter Cohen was denied permission to be allistilled and Perry Howard crucified; but thanks be to God, the Negroes of this country have been aroused and prepared to "do business" with and relegate all political wolves in sheep's clothing. For all these years the Uncle Tom was allistilled ways been in line when told the Republican Party was the party of Abraham Lincoln, but they failed to remember that the 1865 day of September, 1865, Abraham Lincoln delivered a speech, and among other things, said:

WASHINGTON, D. C. — Human beings have queer brain quirks when it comes to claim a P. Albert, 1953 3rd street, N. W., attorney-at-law, Mr. Albert says: "Although more than half a century has passed since the Civil War, there are still hundreds, even thousands of colored people entitled to United States pension benefits, widows who, although aged and living in straitened circumstances, often on charity, are due money which is still in possession of the government although it is theirs for the asking."
In these days of hard times it is difficult to see how any possible action can be taken. But ignorance of what to do, and where to apply for help and information is usually the main cause of the failure to get what is theirs by birth. This is true in spite of the fact that there are many colored men in the community who are pensions on application from parties interested. If the rightful claimants are not interested or are ignorant of children and the grandchildren of these interest in those who fought so软弱, please see our United for their help we have our United to 'he' relieve their last years of the struggle for existence.

TO R. R. CHURCH
WASHINGTON—For myself, I can do not contribute in any way whatsoever a single line, a single sentence, a single paragraph, or asingle suggestion to the article Tennessee, says he is "informed" wrote, and whith he knows I did not write". he is the reply of Dr. Emmetty Scott of Howard University to charges made by R. R. Church of Menphis, Tenn., in the AFRO last week. Scott says:
"Mr. Church says he is trying to help Mr. Hoover's cause and that of the Republican party. His actions, however, suggest that he is abhorring the Republican national grandeur and self-exalation in his all-too-apparent attempt to destroy party harmony. He can not demonstrate his loyalty to the Republican party to destroy the influence of John R. Hawkins and those who have been designated by Dr. Work, Chairman of the Republican National Committee to represent the management of the Colored Voters' Division."

RICHMOND WELCOMES DR. HILL; BALTIMORE DR. JONES
CROWDS MUST STAND AT 2ND BAPTIST
Dr. Joseph T. Hill Preaches First Sermon In Richmond Church
IS EX-BALTIMOREAN
Hard To Go To Heaven From A 3-Story House
BICHMOND. Va. — The old Second Baptist Church had a great day at both services Sunday. Except that the audience was standing both morning and evening. The occasion was that of the coming of the new pastor, Rev. Joseph T. Hill.
"I have come to you feeling that I am a man of destiny. I have come to lead you to higher heights and to help you realize some of your dreams. The crowd of curious pastors early in his sermon as he talked upon simple human things." "There is such a thing as God being fattened out of us. God is so anxious to have Ethiopia stretch forth her hands that he is causing her great suffering we can be in might for the average man to go to heaven out of a three story house. The easy life is a dangerous life."
Come Back Home
Dr. Hill takes on membership of the church to come back home and get to work, pointing out the need of the church for various types of people who are exparts along their lines, business, experts, physicians, those who are especially trained in organization details. "I have been away from Richmond twenty-five years but I find the churches doing the very same thing now. I am still sitting and praying, good, but not enough. Our men must come back to the church.
"The reason that most Negroes have stricly Negro services is that the services are more formal now on when you come to Second Baptist come because things are right.
"Learn to Be Noisy
"The reason that Second Baptist is the school where Negroes learn how to be noisy. We can and we will build up a fine beautiful helpful service."
Setting out to speak thirty or thirty-five minutes Rev. Hill spoke almost an hour. Yet when he was thus strong last wanted some more.

Declaring that it will be a sad Gov for the Christian church when its members neglect its services and shirk its responsibilities, the Rev. J. T. Colbert, in his sermon Sunday morning at Grace Presbyterian Church, scored those Christians who because of the influence of deaden-tasseed demimes from the church did not difference. That no community loses respect for a congregation until that congregation loses respect for itself and its religion." was another pertinent statement of the pastor, who based his remarks upon John 20: 24. and used Thomas as an example of those who made light of the right and not of by faith, and who lose much joy and spiritual blessedness by not being habitually attendant upon divine services.

South Using Varied Propaganda To Win Votes For Hoover
KU KLUX KLAN PAPERS ARE LEADING THE WAY
Cartoon Shows Fred Morton Dictating To White Stenographer
NEW YORK. — Disclosures that the Ku Klux Klan, Lily White Republicans and bolting Southern Democrats are using the Negro in their propaganda to discredit Alfred E. Smith have aroused widespread resentment.
Conclusive proof that plot exists to jointly vilify the Governor and Negroes is apparent on every hand.
A pamphlet is being circulated which reads that a Negro occupies a position of Civil Service Commissioner under Tammany Hall, and that if Smith is elected "this Negro will be made a member of Governor Smith's cabinet."
Klan Organ
In big headlines charging Governor Smith of catering to the Negro, the Fellowship Forum, national organ of the Ku Klux Klan, said in a recent issue.
"In addition to Negro fraternities, the Negro is coming to the aid of Al Smith. The signs are unmistakable. All the un-American and anti-American elements are in the church, which they naturally belong. In the meantime, the friends of American institutions continue to really to the Hoover standards."
In Maryland
Senator Tydings of Maryland, chairman of the Democratic Speakers Bureau, has received word that Negroes in Easton, Md., were being hired to ride in automobiles on the side of which are displayed streamers bearing the words, "Al Smith." At Foley, Ala., a preacher by the name of Showt, recently speaking at a Ku Klux Klan fish-try den that Governor Smith said, the photographer was a Negroess with that Smith had placed thousands of Negroes on the pay-roll in New York State. Morton Carcatured "White Supremacy as Practiced by Tammany" is the caption over a four column cut appearing on the first page of the Fellowship Forum of September 15, in which Civil Service Commissioner Ferdinand Q. Morton is shown dictating a letter to white stenographer with the picture in his own caption—$7,500 a Year Tammany Negro Boss and White Secretary.
The Sensational Weekly, another Ku Klux, Lily-White organ, published in Ramer, Ala, has the following headlines on the first page of the week: Many Hall in All Its Hideousness—Made Up of Crooks, Murders, Thieves, Thugs, Bums, Bootleggers, White-Slavers, Niggers-Lovers, Niggers, Gamblers, Counterfelters, Foreigners, Hi-Jack Pimps, Catholic Church and All Smith

The Charles S. Johnson Banquet
The Charles S. Johnson Testimonial Dinner at the Cafe Boulevard last Friday night was a splendid success. As Mr. Johnson predicted, because the subscription tee was the $25 only tee, Mr. Johnson told them: But what a hcs.' friends they have — 125 were present and letters and telegrams galore were read from those who were unable to attend. Here was a dinner of fresh fruit cocktail, celery, olives, pungent mongolian, lettuce, potatoes, roast chicken, string beans, tartonie and demi tasse and by eight o'clock every one was hungry enough to enjoy it. The Johnson's arrived after the guests had been seated and were given no end of amuses, hand-greeted. .5
shakes and applause. Mr. Johnson seemed more embarrassed than usual but Mrs. Johnson couldn't help looking proud and happy. They were seated at the center of the speaker table, in such dignitaries as Mary White Owington, author; Lloyd Garrison, philanthropist; Elmer Carter, new director of research of the New York Urban League; William Pickens, field director of the N. A. A. C. P.; James H. Hubert, executive secretary of the New York Urban League; Arthur A. SCHomburg, collector of rare books; Charles H. FRESNEL, president of Morehouse College; Eugene K. Jones, executive secretary of the Urban League; and Rev. William Lloyd Imes.
Charlotte Wallace Murray
After the dinner came some delightful music by Charlotte Wallace Murray, and the inevitable speakers. But at the affair was quite was quite easy.
The speakers—Mary White Ovington, Brenda Moryck, Alice Dunbane Nelson, Elmer Carter, Walter Ryan, Rev. William Innes, William Pickens, Professor ed. the Awards and Professor of Sociology at the University of Pennsylvania nia: John Hope and E. K. Jones talked on the virtues of Mr. Johnson. He was called young, old and misfaced, unusual, kind, generous, splendid, wonderful, great—every adjective denoting perfection of which you can think. Here Mr. Johnson got and ahed, ahed, and ahemed in the best Johnson maneuver in the competition. But Mrs. Johnson was the sensation of the dinner.
Mrs. Johnson A Sensation
A clever lady. She added the truly personal touch — told a joke or two on her illustrious husband, let us in on how much she adored him and made us feel important by promising to come back. She .as presented with a portrait of her husband which had been done by O. Richard Reid.
This really remarkable man has had a most interesting history. Born in Bristol, in the southwestern corner of Virginia, he went to Wayland Academy in Jacksonville and then he had been his father before him had been a student there. Upon graduation he moved upstairs, so to speak, to Union University because, no doubt, it was at hand. But when in 1917 he received his degree from Chicago where, because he was unknown, he felt he could do better work. He entered the university and began the well-known grind of carrying the maximum number of courses of courses and supporting himself. However, after two quarters, his classroom work was of such unusual calibre that he was awarded two scholarships in sociology and the following year he was appointed a department of research at the Chicago branch of the Urban League.
Commissions of Investigations
Then followed commissions and investigations. For the Carnegie Foundation he gathered material on the Negro migration. He made independent studies of the Negro population trends in Chicago, a survey of the Negro population in Milwaukee and between times wrote editorials for the Searchlight and Chicago Defender Defender and magazine articles on economics and sociology that he wrote to that he would have to do army service; so before starting on that rather uncertain business he finished the writing of the migration materia. which was used in part for Emma Hunt's book, *The World War*. Soon after his discharge from the army the Chicago riots broke out, and when a commission was to be appointed, he was selected from forty applicants for associate executive secretary, a position of the study and the writing of the report. At the completion of this stupendous task, which placed him in the front rank in his chosen field, he was sent to New York to establish a department in national Urban League headquarters.
This department had going on simultaneously three pieces of research — a study of racial attitudes of motivations of Negro migration and of the economic aspects of Negro status, and, in addition, three issues of dependency and delinquency, another of National Negro Labor Unions, and a number of local surveys.

On January 1, 1923, Mr. Johnson brought out for the league the first issue of "Opportunity": a monthly journal of Negro life, which was the outgrowth of the work of a desire to furnish an organ which would foster and develop an objective approach to the subject of the Negro. Its years have been brilliant and fruitful. It is used as a textbook in universities; it is in the libraries of practically every institution of higher education, and at the University of Southern California its editors are studied as examples of noteworthy style in editorial writing. It has established itself as one of most scholarly and scientific periodicals. In connection with the magazine, and under the editor's supervision the Opportunity Literary Contests, of which there have been three. These contests have been with the means of publishing to publishers, and literary patrons, a valuable mass of new material, and of developing and bringing to life unthought of talents and gifts.
Read Manuscripts
As if the direct. of his research work and the guidance of "Oppor-
*unity*" were not sufficient to keep two men busy from early until late. Mr. Johnson read manuscripts for various publications, was research director for the National Inter-Racial Conference, and chairman of the editorial advisory committee for the Annals, which published the 1928 a reference to the New Jersey maintained an active membership in the American Sociological Society, the Writers' Guild, the Civic Club of New York, and the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity. And now he directs the newly organized Department of Social Sciences at Fisk University. The Johnson's left New York Monday for Nashville, where they will carry on their new life. "Opportunity" does not lose him completely. He will continue as Contributor.
Guests
Fess William's Royal Flush And Lloyd Scott's Bright
Bova Reopen Savoy
Right royally did the Royal Flushers, Bright Boys, and The Ten Melody Maids open the fall season of the Savoy — "the World's Finest Ballroom" — last Friday. They stomped, moaned, and shouted, and dressed and messed around. It was ag reat night. The usual Savoy crowd turned out and enjoyed itself in no uncertain terms. Fess Williams and Lloyd Scott's orchestras were old fa orites and those were welcomed home with shuffling
Although the Fess is still at the Chicago Regal, his boys played the most righteous music under the direction of Lockwood Lewis, who by the way, sings out of him. They are great friends and their jazz band is Scott's direct band of the band of his brother, Lloyd "Great" Scott. They sing and play and really know what it is all about. The Ton Melody Making Maids were billed as a special attraction and lady musicians are not 'o my fancy, they went over big. Savoy is full of ideas, and features are its speciality. Monday is Waltz night; Tuesday, Four hundred Club Night; Wednesday, Savoy Derby night; Thursday, Vaudille night; Friday, Club night; Saturday, Revue night; and Sunday, Opportunity after afternoon, and Sunday. It is the best cure for the blues that I know. Here is always something new and peppy to intrigue you. Whirlwind specialties, enthusiastic audiences and genuine entertainment are the trade marks of the Savoy. It aims to please you and believe dead man couldn't resist its appeal.
And I mustn't forget the hostesses They are a big selling point. Cute all right. Wish they had a rang of Paul Meeres for the feminine patrons. The United Colored Democracy Has New Club Rooms
The United Colored Democracy has stepped out, or rather Ed. Wilson, proprietor of the Oliga Hotel put his best foot forward in behael of the bumblebee Oliga in Glasgow at 145th Street between Seventh and Eight avenues that is magnificent. The formal opening was scheduled for Thursday at the bumblebee club lay of workmen, one room was unfinished, and the big show called off.
However, a number of good democrats and well wishers, among them John Howard Bearden, A'Lella Walker, Dr. Albert Bearden, Lea B. H. Delany, Charle Washington and Horace Millehopped by to inspect the new quarters.
The lounge is elegant beyond word. It is an enormous rectangular room with double paneled walls done in a creamy beige fancy slippie. Deep divans, high-backed chairs, straight upholstered chair, a long table, countless lamps, smoking stands, soft rugs, and net curtains complete the room. The large card room, office and another large room in which meetin' may be held. Your first impression on entering is that no money has been spared to make the clubrooms by.far the most pretentious in Harlem.

Segregation
"5—Segregation of Government employees is reprehensible, shocking to the righteous judgment of a great Nation and contrary to the policies of a just Government. The Departments at Washington DC are demanding, deminated with the humiliating and degrading policy of separating Government employees during hours of labor, because of color. Will Mr. Hoover continue this policy or void it, if elected President? Do you know, and as our leader, don't you think you should advise us to vote for Mr. Hoover? We know where Slemp and Creager stand on this question. Does Hoover agree with them?

"—Peonage is a species of slavery outlawed by the Constitution and statute laws of the land, whether brought about because of debts, murders, or rapes, or tamped up charges of crime. It cannot be defended in morals, equity of law. Will Mr. Hoover, if elected President, use the Department of Justice to stamp out peonage wherever it may now exist. If you think that as a leader you ought to inform us with respect to Mr. Hoover's stand on this question?
Lynching
"S--Lynching is a crime for which no excuse or justification can be advanced. The laws of all the States require that persons who possess moronic dispositions. Will Mr. Hoover, if elected President, sanction legislation to the end that the wicked practice of lynching, burning, and mobbing of bodies be abolished. He knows the mind of Mr. Hoover on this question? And is it impertinent to seek information with regards to his position and what governmental actions he will take, as citizens will be put in operation, if he is elected President?
Paramount Issues
I know that the issue of farm relief and prohibition are featured and stressed in this campaign as the leading issues, but over and above these issues, like Mt. Washington towers over other mountains, is the issue of political equality, human rights and liberties, the protection of the Constitution, Citizen, black and white alike. Witty statements, like "the Republican Party is the ship; all else is the sea," ridicule, and reciting the records of the records of the Republican Party from 1856 to 1876, will not dovetail with the records of the Republican Party from 1920 to 1928.

WALK MILLER FOUND DEAD, HINT SUICIDE
Manager Of Late Tiger Flowers Was At His Camp In New York.
KINGSTON, N. Y.-Walk Miller, white, manager of the late Tiger Flowers, at one time middleweight champion, and known as a fearless champion for the rights of race fighters was found dead at his training camp here. Sunday, with two buttletounds in his body. The news is believed by some, Burt Miller, of Atlanta, Georgia, doubts that Miller took his own life. The two talked over long distance telephone Sunday morning. It is known, however, that the boxing champion was born several years from Bright's disease and a heart ailment. "Walk" as he was familiarly known, had planned to leave Monday for a visit to his home in Atlanta. His body was dismembered and the former Madison Square Garden matchmaker, called to see him.
Managed by Sasha Miller and Bobby O'Neill, Charley Anderson, Roy "Ace" Clark. Sunny Jim Williams, Jimmy Moore. Joe Hall, and a big able of white fighters. He was probably one of the best fighters in the South and to him goes the credit of discovering and making the late Tiger Flowers. The pair made fortunes in the ring and it has always been Miller's contention that Flowers would win the middleweight in Chicago when it was given to Mickey Walker.

It looks as if we are going to get W. Brooks as pastor of St. Paul's Bellmore. Brooks is a man of service. Stewart, just wired me from St. Louis that he has talked with Dr. Brooks. He has his time in out here and he would consider coming. This is what he says that Dr. Brooks can pull Bethel Church up now, and that the church should get him if it can. He advises that the matter be taken up with Bishop Johnson.

Do You Call That Religion? No! No!
Do You Call That Religion? No! No!
"I am a Baptist. My father was a Baptist. In fact all of my family are Baptist. I couldn't be anything but a Baptist, and when you can't Nigger who is anything but who is Nigger, whose white man has been tampering with him.
"The Southland is the proper home for Niggers' climate and when you want them the same as I do for many of them have played as little boys and girls together. White people can't get along without you and you Niggers can't get along without us," he continued. "The white people of the South sympathize with their hopes and安慰 them. You have our prayers, and when you return姆 you tell all that your stay is enjoyable in dear Dixie and whichever a cordial welcome from both. Thus spoke Mayor Thomas, white of Shreveport, La., in welcoming the National Baptist Convention to his home city.
The idea back of a welcoming address, is to make the visitors feel at home by having the city head guarantee them hospitality.
If Mayor Thomas is accustomed to address its own fellow townsmen as "Niggers," we have no objection, but he knew that in his audience were Northerners who have never been customed to insult and would resent it except for the fact that it was offered by the host who invited them.
Yet after all there is something strange about a religion that permits its votaries to accept or even seem to insult with a smile.
That audience could have hissed down an impolite city official. That's returning discourtesy for discourtesy or it could have walked out. But that is showing contempt. That audience didn't, it smiled and went about its work.
Such action savors of real Christianity about which America knows but little. It's reminiscent of a certain Nazarene who answered not when epitom and scorned.
Imagine Jesus Christ come to Shreveport and greeted by Mayor Thomas as a "sheeeyen." We don't think He'd gotten angry or slapped his mouth. We think He would have smiled too. He said—
"Blessed be the meek."

Delinquency
Delinquency is increasing faster among whites than among colored, the U. S. Bureau of Education Report shows. The figures are for whites and 29.7 colored, measured in terms of boys and girls admitted to reformatories. Be glad that this report is no worse. There are opportunities for work and education 11.514 colored and 720.28 white children are now in U. S. A. reformatories. We're one tenth of the population and one-seventh of those whom courts say need reforming. In thinking of these figures, remember all white judges and juries do the committing.

Think for Yourself
II Candidate Hoover wins, it will be a victory for the Hawkes, the anti-Bailoon League, the M. E. Church, the Quakers, the Klu Klux Klan, the lily whites, and the bourbon South. II Candidate Smith wins, labor, foreigners, Catholicism, wets, and the middle class South will celebrate. Should republicans win, can the churchmen and big business save you from the klux and lily whites. Catholics with whom you combine to destroy klax influence in the nation are with the democratic party. Can you call upon them for help and make same time cast your vote in O. P? Should democrat wins, can you expect Catholics, Jews, and foreigners to make common cause with you in getting a decent home, a proper school and a ballot where you have none. Is no time to listen to paid politicians. They are not thinking of you, they have eyes on you, pay envelope and a political job after election. Old party lines are down.

Now is no time to listen to paid politicians. They are not thinking of you, they have eyes on their pay envelope and a political job after graduation.
Old party lines are down. New ones are reforming, choice is growing. You THINK, discuss and deliberate. Your problem and your job and you can't it up to anyone else.
Tight Socks
You are fatigued. You have a headache, pains in your legs and your favored corn and potatoes, and is fighting their troubles to all parts of your anatomy. Of course it's your feet and you soak them in footwear. You are tired and start out next day to walk yourself into the same old misery. Everybody is born with the body and stretch while walking. Trouble comes when we seek to accommodate our feet to certain shoes and stockings that were too short and one third were too wide. A survey of sixth grade children in Chicago recently showed one half of the children wore stockings that were too short and one third were too wide. Buy shoes for walking and stockings that will be large enough after they are washed.

There's no sense in jumping out of the frying pan into the fire. Even the democrats oppose Smith. The Woman's Club of Roland Park is working on every servant-maid to control their vein against Smith. Do you know that the chief war may be the result. They started to control America. South America is under the Latin Church. Then Mexico, but they met mite blood of the ancient Indian there. Now let them meet that power of God here, because what is right, and let us not put a king over us that will whip us with the sung of death.

When requested to comment on Mr. Robert Church's article released to colored newspapers this week. Dr. Emmet J.

He can be a man of a wonderful thing, but it is not courage but cowardice when one seeks to launch an attack against man of straw instead of against the foeman with whom one would rather not have controversy, and from whom one prefers to flee

"What a beautiful thing is a man of straw with impunity, and with blatant fury. Courage is a wonderful thing, and indeed a wonderful thing, but it is not courage but cowardice when one seeks to launch an attack against man of straw instead of agency. It is not courage, and not have controversy, and from whom one prefers to flee in fear and trembling. Mr. Robert L. Church of the Public Republican National Committee, informed mutual friends of Mr. Church before his article appeared that he would be the liability for the article describing Mr. Church's acrobatic activities during the campaign years of 1920, 1924 and 1928. If it please Mr. Church, he should be outfitted in the direction of the man who knew and described his acrobatic activities during the campaign years of 1920, 1924 and 1928, with moral gaze of the public. I am well content with the exhibition he makes of his 'courage' and his self-sufficiency.
"For myself, I can only say: 'I did not conform in any way, and a single paragraph to the article he. Robert R. Church of Memphis, Tenn., says he is 'informed' I wrote, and which he knows I did not write."

A Reply to "Chapple" Gardner's Letter Which Said Professional Men Are "High Hatters" To the Editor:—
In reading issue of August 18, I ran across an article in issue of *Professional Men Are Stuck-up*-They "High hat" everybody by one "Chapple" Gardner. Pray tell me who is Chapple. Anyhow, go over the cover of this informational book. This "chap" in making a tie-up against the doctor, dentist and lawyer is really to be more pitted than the other, the sacrifices these men who unjustly assails are making for our racial group. Because a man perhaps wants to be decent, self-respectful, but put forward that he is "better-than-you" individual. Because he does not care to wallow in the mire of fifth and carousel men, he is a "high-hat".

Why the West Indian and American Negro Bare a Common Cause.
To the Editor:
To the Editor:
How has the queer notion ever arisen that there is some natural or unavoidable connection between the American Negro? Some say that the fault is in the clanniness of the West Indian Negro; that he segregates himself and assumes a distinction or difference from the American Negro; that the fault lies in the American Negro's attitude, which, like that of most ordinary human beings, is likely to be tinged with a show of prejudice against the "foreigner," and to preen itself on the advantages which the new element has as, as a start at least, over-immigrant.
How has the queer notion ever arisen that there is some natural or unavoidable cause for antagonism? Some say that the fault is in the clanishness of the West Indian Negro; that he segregates himself and assumes a distinction or difference from others. Sayers say that the fault lies in the American Negro's attitude, which, like that of most ordinary human beings, is likely to be tinged with a show of prejudice. It is also on the advantages which the native element usually has, as a start at least, over the immigrant. But let us consider the situation of people who segregate from their own home and enter as a small minority into a strange land: it is but natural that a little group of people so situated will feel an increased dependence on the outside world, will feel even together in interest than they felt at home. What is called clanishness in the West Indian, is perhaps to be expected in any group so situated. Africa or damma would show the same reaction. It has been noticed that West Indian groups who were not especially friendly to each other in interest, will "stand up" for each other in New York. That is commendable rather than otherwise, homelands, who came perhaps from different countries. Some that did not even know each other in their Jamaica and Trinidad. Will in America, feel nevertheless a common interest and kinship when they find themselves all united together as "those
This very conditional unity of various West Indian groups is in itself encouraging and offers evidence for what we are claiming in this editorial: That co-operation does not depend upon common struggle but on the strength of greed and ignorance against their kind. And in spite of our human weakness or because of it) such a co-operation of Negro groups in America is bound to come; for nothing is more reasonable, nor in the end more certain, than that indiscriminate attack will bege indis-

TEACHING THE CHILD
UNSELFISHNESS
JOHN FAULT-DOUGLE
One of the first things that every child should learn in the way of etiquette is to be unselfish and considerate of the rights of others. This is a very important skill, and it is easy ease when the child is at the plastic age, but which is almost impossible for him to learn later. An only child is very apt to be selfish and considerate of other children, and it is taught at an early age that he can't always have his own way. Sometimes such a child will be so lonely for other children's companionship that he will agree to anything that another child desires but this is the exception rather than the
An only child is very apt to be selfish and inconsiderate of the rights of others unless we are able to have them. We have his own way. Sometimes such a child will be so lonely for other children's companionship we will agree to anything that another child desires but this is the exception rather than the rule. When I was but a toot, I knew a girl by the name of Lily. She was playing with children I played with, and I had a chance to learn much about selfish children from her. She was the chief interest of a rich girl. She was playing with things for it, and unless her wish was extremely extravagant, she got what she desired. This made her entirely unwilling to give in to the other children, and she would not allow her things, and if she took a fancy to them, she would try to keep them. htle worst part of it was that parents would defend her strongly. She would not allow that none of the other children would permit her to play with them. Of course she was quite hurt at this. She was extremely exerted to blame for her actions. If her parents had taught her to give in to others at least half of the time, she would have been liked by her parents. She was by nature a sweet child. I believe.
The children of a large family should, and usually do, learn to give in to each other. Be careful not to give in to each other. Please explain if one member of the family receives a gift or favor and they do not. I may be their turn next time. In any case, they should be taught—not told to rejoice in each other's good fortune. Of course children should not "play with" this causes ill-feelings towards the favored.
It is especially essential that the father should always treat his wife with great respect and kindness. He will always regard their mother in the same respectful way. They will treat Mother unselfishly if Father does. So, in order to set the proper example, if for no other reason, Father should try to treat Mother with the greatest kindness.
Children learn very much by watching others, principally their parents, and if they see that their parents are not treating their father by Father they will naturally think that there is no other way to do. Father will come in for his share of devotion when the children are older, for they will be sure to thank their parents if they teach his wife better than other men do.
How Big Was The
Largest Hailstone?
The maximum possible size of a single hallstone cannot be stated positively for the simple reason that there is not always a trained observer on hand to measure every large hallstone which falls, weighing more than one person per several times been reported on good authority, according to the U. S. Weather Bureau. During a storm in Natal in 1874 hallstones fell which weighed a pound and a half. They passed over iron roof as if it had been made of paper.
Hailstones 14 inches in circumference fell in New South Wales in February. 1827. At Cape York, under blocks of ice, some of which are said to have weighed four and a half pounds. In October, 1844, a halstorm at Cette, France, wrecked houses and sank vessels. But these were severe sailing bumps from the coal-bed surface taking a grain of salt. The untrained observer often unconsciously aggrenaded. Then, too, some of these reports may refer to cases where masses of ice fell from the coal-bed surface falling a number of smaller hailstones lying closely packed together on the ground.

"Boy, you may have swell ox-
ford pants, but you can have the
jocular rejoinder of one of two boys
jesting in the Y. M. G. A lobby this
There is both humor and tragedy in this jocose statement and it fits a lot of young men. At great lish and other levels, the institute, in which they do wear the bell bottom pants called collage, BUT THEY DO OTHER THERE, BE COPIED TO GREATER ADVANTAGE At some of these institutions young men have been known to work twelve to fifteen hours per day over a scientific problem UNTIL THEY SOLVED IT.
Young women, with their modern ideas, think it wise to reverse the *c*, time customary doggeroles, and kind near-mearth, and come down to her idea of his level, might ponder Dr. Lyon's statement.
Warns The Clergy
There are many farsighted students of human affairs who may be so blinded by the need that they be just as well to let the present church leadership destroy the modern church that a new generation of men who think it worth while to salvage Christianity on the ground that it has never yet been given a vision.
In this latter group is John W. Davis, progressive young president of Virginia College Institute, who speaks in the National Baptist Convention, warned the clergy that the coming young men and women are sincerely critical of present day religious administration, and that religiousism would have to be heeded if religion is to last through coming generations. Clergymen who heard President Davis, no doubt aware of the dangers, went back to their homes to be swept along by the same materialism and selfishness which has made young men and women curl their hips in a screech up a Cross and deny themselves any selfish pleasure in this world.
The troubles with most institutes has been no exception with the church. But it is far the most useful institution. Instudied institutions, even good ones, however, may either outlive their usefulness or may die young. People who are young people are no longer getting their inspiration and basing their ethics on the grace of Biblical ethics on the grace that must either change its program or find itself faded out of the picture of picture generations.
Old Politics
No wonder a certain amount of consternation abounds among the students, who seem to things terrify; queer around political headquarters these days. There is a new order at political sanctuary.
Walk into any political headquarters and if you do not see "Hoveringor" you will see plainly that the students are instead of this. This is a card index campaign and instead of the usual hobbing with leaders of this and that organization, glasses are pondering graphs, population maps and lists.
To the old guard, the parson man is not only unusual but soul rendering. It was possible even four years ago for some "leaders" in the morning and Democratic in the afternoon for their pay checks. All they had to do was to be a sheeam of this or that lodge or pastor a little flock. In fact, the big asset in becoming a lodge or church leader has been the politi-

How Many Vote
(From N. Y. F. Fraternal Review)
According to the Census Bureau the numbered 10,463,131 in 1920, and it is estimated that it was 11,698,000 in 1927. About one-half of the number estimated for 1927 had reached the Voting Age. In 1920 the census showed Negro voters in the states named as follows:
York 142,544; New Jersey 76,671; Pennsylvania 119,254; Illinois 128,000; Indiana 53,935; Ohio 126,940; Tennessee 245,935; Kentucky 143,831; Missouri 121,328 and Maryland 140,574. Of the total of 5,522,524 Negro voters in 1920, 2,792,006 were men and 2,730,274 women. Other states where the Negro is by no means negligible in politics. For example, there was a colored population of more than 149,000 in Oklahoma in 1920, and of more than 76,000 had attained the voting age. Kansas had 79,725 Negroes within her borders in 1820, and of the number entitled to vote in New England the 1920 population of Negroes was:
Massachusetts 54,456; Connecticut 21,046; Rhode Island, 10,036; Vermont 12,949; New Hampshire, "21, and Maine, 1,310.

COLORED REGIMENTS IN BATTLE OF BULL RUN
Many Slaves Sorry The Yankees Ran.
FROM FREDERICK DOUGLASS MONTHLY—MARCH 1662
My name is John Parker, I was born in King and Queen's county Virginia, I do not know my age. My master's name is Benjamin Wilson; he failed in business, and and when he broke up they seized 130 Negroes—of which I was one—and sold them at the auction market in Richmond
I was bought by Thomas Griggs, a Colonel In The Rebel army for $1,000. My new master brought me with a number of other slaves he had purchased, to his plantation in Jefferson county, and set me to work. I married a wife, after leaving my first master, who belonged to a plantation five miles away from ours. I staid with my new master until the war broke out, then he and his sons went away to the war, leaving an overseer to manage us.
In two weeks our overseer also back and finding her. I gave her the papers and told her she must get off. I told her to come to the Chain Bridge at a certain time and eat up everything she could get. Not long after, our mistress and her two daughters packed and went off. Our master had us to stay at the plantation until he came back, and that if any d--Yankees showed themselves in his clothes to shoot them.
Our master had also before this had sent us to Winchester and Freedicksburg to work upon the batteries and assist at the trench. The officers we returned to the plantation, where we remained until the seat of the government was removed from Mongomery to Richmond. A report spread that Richmond was fortified, and that all the Negroes would be wanted to help.
In one battery a shell burst and killed twenty, the rest ran. Thank the Lord! non-we were killed. The Lord! non-we were killed. The time and thought every minute my time would come; I felt so excited that I hardly knew what I was about, and felt worse than the Yankees would whip and we would have run over to their side but our officers would have shot us if we had made the mistake. The order came for all to retreat, then every one ran thinking that the Yankees were close upon their heels.
But they followed a good piece, but followed our officers found out that the Yankees were also running as fast as we were, they ordered a hulk and the Block Hole in the fight. stopped all the fugitives and turned in pursuit of the United States troops but the generals also followed him, and they didn't care to press forward upon them very sharply.
There were but two regiments of colored men in the free state free Negroes and the other slaves. Our masters tried all they could to make us fight. They promised to give us freedom, but none of us believed them, we only fought because we had to. I stained here for about two weeks before we went next Friday burying the dead.—We did not bury the Yankees and our men in the same hole, we generally dug a long trench in the middle of a hundred in a pit. We couldn't make any kind of coffins for them. We stripped the Yankees of all their clothes and our men without taking anything off them. the Yankees had the best clothes. The Colonel of our regiment watches, etc., to him
We found a great number of wounded, and the first thing they asked for was water, water water. Some of the wounded we put out of their misery by bayoneting them. They would cry out and beg for their lives but did not dawn on them. True did many times afternoon of truce came over for some of the dead but they would not give them up. The Yankees came many times to a brother in the U.S. Government, but they as many times refused to allow his body to be given up; they took him off but I don't know what happened. We were afraid of another attack from the Yankees, and prepared ourselves as well as we could to meet them. I then left by leave of our officers, with six of my master's men to go home. One of these had been wounded by a shell, and he died after suffering colored paint killed in the accident. We got back we found all the cattle and mules gone, and corn all grown up with weeds, but we didn't know what we needed was a chance to escape.
There were officers prowling round the neighborhood in search of all the things they didn't get smartly, they didn't get us. The first thing that I did on my return was to see my wife; she lived five miles away; she was her; she was very glad that I hadn't been killed; she asked me how the fight went. I told her our masters were in the country, she was very sorry to hear that the Yankees ran. I stained with my wife from Saturday night until the fight ended; to my masters' I was afraid to stay long in the neighborhood for fear of the officers, so I left and came near the U. S. soldiers I found the U. S. soldiers at Alexandria, who gave me two papers, one for my wife; they asked me what one for my wife; they asked me wife said I would try. I then went
back, and finding her, I gave her the paper and told her she must try to get off. I told her to come to the Chain Bitch bridge, and she told her, but I found she wouldn't allow me to pass there, so I fixed another plan to get my wife over. I was to meet her in a canoe and go back her though, and I think she must have gone too high up the pier. When I had given her up I went along up the river and with some pickets, Banks shot her. Frederick, Md. I was afraid, but they welcomed me and shouted: "Come on! don't hurt him." Some of the pickets were on houseback, she gave me a suit of clothes and plenty to eat. and treated me
They wanted me to stay and down in Virginia and I came here. There were but I was afraid to try that country again, and said that I was bound for the North. I told them all I knew about the powder mill on the Raphaelmann river. etc.
They let me go, and they gave me a paper—they said—in New York, and told me that he would see to me and make all right. I left at night and the Secessionists in Maryland, and I only walked at night.
I came to Getzeburgh in a week and saw the big barns, that I was in another country. I asked a man what State this was, and he said Pennsylvania. "Reserved until I came to the side of the mountain and then I laid by. I would lay in the woods in the day time and meet people at night, and when I heard them coming I jumped over the fence into the fields; I had a best friend from the soldiers, and also savings.

TWO YR. OLD SPLIT TO BE SETTLED THERE
Rival Conventions With Two Sets Of Officers Appeal To Law
CASE UP MONDAY
Jury To Hear Arguments And Bring In A Verdict
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. — A split of two years' standing among members and ministers of the Colored Baptist Ministry of Pennsylvania will be brought to a climax at a jury trial fixed for next Monday by Judges Devittie and Taulane in Court of Common Pleas No. 1, yesterday.
The Court will decide, as a result of quo warranto proceedings, which two judicial sets of officers chosen at two conventions in 'his city in 1926 were legally elected. On the decision depends where the convention of the organization will be held October 9.
At the 1925 convention in Pittsburgh, it was agreed to hold the 1926 convention in Chicago and Woodland avenue, of which Rev. S. J. Jones is pastor. Jones promised to build a tabernacle sufficiently large to seat the convention, but when the time for meeting came, the place for meeting was the members of the Ministerial Association decided to hold the convention in the Dauphin Street Baptist Church at Twenty-ninth and Fletcher streets, of which Rev. John H. Dwelle is pastor. Two separate separations of officers elected.
At the 1927 session of the convention held in Pittsburgh, a group of ministers headed by the Rev. S. J. Jones, of Philadelphia; the Rev. H. Rucker, of Washington; the Rev. H. Rucker, of Dayton; the Pittsburgh; the Rev. R. Saunders of McKesport; the Rev. J. J. Booking, of Brownville; the Rec. John Clinton, of Philadelphia; and Rev. E. E. Hamlet, of Philadelphia, sought an injunction against another minister. D. Dwelle asking that names, name and accomplishments of the state convention claiming they were the real body and that the meeting should have been held at Braddock, Pa., instead of the group which consists of himself as president, Dr. H. O. Hoe, Washington, and Dr. O. P. Goodwin, Steelton, vice-presidents; the Rev. C. C. Scott, secretary; and the Rev. W. P. Graham, treasurer.

London Papers Speak In Glowing Terms of Marian Anderson. (By DANIEL W.

"Miss Anderson and her reach this country dawned the early part of next month and is scheduled to make her first American appearance under the auspices of the Phil Beta Sigma Fraternity at the Academy of Music on October 12, Columbus Day. J. A. F. the musical critic of the London Daily News, with reference to this sinner's work, asked this to save: "Miss Maria Anderson has a talent, and exceptional technique. She sang Verdi's well-known aria. "O don fata" with fine effect, and in the London Daily Mirror, the critic says: "The singing of Verdi's 'O don fata' by Miss Maria Anderson deserves a word. Hers is a voice of fine quality through its entire range and she delivered the big phrases with an understanding of their truth.
Here and there, wherever she was heard, critics have been loud in their praise of the work, and have been as hard as A coloured contrasto with a voice of beautifully smooth quality" and although the volume may not have been considered great, the "singer has been well known" and was a musical, and her Italian was good.

"Dick" had been accepted into the Law School of Harvard University, but feeling a need for more trained men in this field of greater service, he forthwith asked and asked for the Divinity School. He added that their reply conveyed the impression that they thought he had been bereft of his faculties, but readily complied.
BOTH MISSOURI PARTIES SEEK RACE VOTERS
JEFFERSON CITY. MO.
—Republican and Democrat state conventions held here Tuesday night of last week inserted planks designed to catch the colored vote.
The Republican plank on education called for a system giving every Missouri boy and girl an equal chance for an education.
"The facilities are also pledged to the Negro children in the State that of standard courses in Lincoln University stands, as it has always stood, for equal opportunities regardless of race and against racial intolerance.
"We favor the establishment of a vocational school in Southeast Missouri for the training of Negro youths and the development of the state demonstration farm in Charlottetown."
"We favor a separate institution for colored boys confined at the Missouri Reformatory at Boonville and adequate appropriations for the establishment of a home for minded colored people of the state and a Negro industrial commission."
Lincoln University
We condemn the present and past injurious killings at the Republican基层affecting Lincoln University, and promise that the affairs of the institution shall be administered solely for the advantage of its students.
Colored laborers are not recipients of their share of benefits from the State Labor Department. The health, industrial and economic interests of the colored people of the state have not had the attention to which they are entitled.

COLLEGES IN NEED OF SPIRITUAL LEADERS
COLLEGES IN NEED OF SPIRITUAL LEADERS
Necessary To Balance Material Values, Says The Rev,
C. H. Stepteau
CHURCH GROWING COLD
Cites Schools Of Religion At Howard And Morris Brown
That spiritual leadership must come to the fore in our schools and colleges to balance the great emphasis now placed on material values, pointed out by the Rev. C. H. Stepteau, who spoke on "Unity" to his congregation at Bethel A. M. E. Church, Sunday morning.
The Bethel pastor explained that he was not condemning the present syste mof literary education but felt that there should be more religious training offered in our institutions, the Brow University and to the need of continuing the development in the School of Religion at Howard University.
"You say the Church is growing cold," the Rev. Steepteau countered, "but you fail to see that the reason for this is because the workers are not busy making things warm." No one would be "code" when the workers are busy heaping coals on the spiritual fires."
Can Differ, Yet Be United
To accomplish its fullest purpose the church must first have unity, the Bethel pastor continued, asserting that there can be unity even though there may be wide differences of opinion among the most special phases of religion. He closed with a plea for a co-operative spirit among the congregation and an attitude of tolerance toward all.

Chords And Dis-chords
Irvin Hughes Back—Bad Music In The Church—Ernest Hayes Home—Marian Anderson—London Symphony Soloist.
Irvin Hughes
Irvin Hughes, a Baltimore lad, who left this city a few years ago, to continue his studies in music, recently returned to our city, rich in expertion. Now he teaches music. Hughes returned to his native heath without any blasting of trumpets to announce his arrival home. Unobtrusively he at once set to work to organize an orchestra, which he more or less significantly elected to form the very beginning. Mr. Hughes set high standards of proficiency in performance and required his musicians to attend rehearsals of the symphony and the choir of young musicians has made quite an enviable reputation and deservedly so, both as radio artists and as dispensers of good dance music.
Mr. Hughes, the director, is quite gifted as a musician, and very often uses his talents toates the music used by his orchestra.
Church Music
With the return of the beautiful autumn season, Sunday Schools and other similar organizations connected with the school, winter programs, designed primarily to attract and to inspire the young folk of our community to the spiritual to inspire benefits offered by the church. Often to offer special interment meetings, orchestras are employed to furnish music. Many times the members comprising these so-called "orchestras" are beginners as performers, who will often offer interment to gain experience in public performance. The purposes and intentions of such volunteers may be very laudable and at the same time, they may be arousing altruistic motives, but too often the resulting musical attainments are atrocious.
To begin with many times there are as many A's or B flats, as the case may be, as there instruments in the orchestra, as there points in the whole chromatic scale, when the pianist asks the ensemble to sound "A." It is no uncommon experience to notice a player enter the group assembled and to begin playing with the others without making any attempt to tune them; the instrument is called, what a musician might think is an oversight, the offending player will state that he tuned up before he left home. Secondly, in some such groups regular pulse is a stranger and regular tempo is taboo. Again the selected player is soooo good that the audience is the latest jazz tunes and the style of performance smacks largely of the dance hall.
Leagues
Unfortunately a number of our leaders in our religious life consider such musical programs as necessary to encourage and make music more accessible to the leagues and other young people's meetings in our churches. But experience with a large number of sincere youngsters can help them rightly guided or left entirely to themselves the average young person of today is willing to "render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's and unto God the things that are
Our younger generation may doubt, that the future abode of blest souls is literally paved with gold and that the walls are of jasper, but I vouch-safe to say that very few of our young folk care to think of that home over there as "Blue hawaii." May the coming season bring some music to our Sunday afternoon meetings and may the style of playing, at least, convince one that it is being played for the glorification of God.
Ernest Hayes
Ernest Hays, teacher of organ, at Hampton Institute, one of the best equipped organists in the country, spent a few days here in Baltimore at the home of his parents, after having spent a very prominent role in the Music School at Rochester, N. Y. Mr. Hays is a product of our local schools, an honor or graduate in organ from the New England Conservatory of Music, and holds a supervisor's certificate from Boston University. A student assistant, to D. A. Natehnel Dett, director of Music at Hampton Institute?
Marian Anderson
I dislike to end this with a discord, but modern harmony permits it So here I go. It might be interesting news to those who laughed at Mrs. Marian Anderson's stage presence, the first time she appeared here in Baltimore, or soloist, to know that Miss Anderson's artistry has won her place as soloist with the London Symphony orchestra, under the direction of Dr Henry Wood. England's greatest conductor. A few well directed "smiles" have surely sent her a long way upward.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1928
NO PLANS TO HAVE RACE MUSIC SCHOOL
NO PLANS TO HAVE RACE MUSIC SCHOOL
A denial that the Peabody Conservatory of Music was contemplating opening a branch for race people was made by Miss Marian Evans, white, of the Preparatory department, this week, put all rumors at rest. Both Miss Evans and Otto Ortman were the executive secretary, state that they knew nothing of a supposed branch school and were reluctant to talk about it. When made aware of the fact that there is no accredited school in this city where our people desire to pursue studies leading to musical career, Olmert Ortman that was a unfortunate situation. He stated that there was a class conducted under the supervision of the Peabody Conservatory to prepare race music teachers to instruct individuals and classes in certain music studies. Work given these students does not need them credits or recognition from the conservatory.
Barred From Diploma
The classes arranged are in the theory of teaching or music, the theory of the theory. Ornmann was then advised that our group was not interested in a teacher's course but was interested in a course that would lead to making one a finished musician. Those who are interested in taking an extensive course in voice and instruments cannot take this work at the conservatory.
No Plans At All
A disposition to avoid the subject any further was then shown. Neither Miss Evans nor Mr. Ornmann heated to state that the subject was being considered to carry on the rumored project.
Mrs. Loveth Husketh, a popular piano teacher of East Baltimore, and amember of the class for teachers mentioned previously; "spoke freely of the work done there," and "clung to the attached to the workings of the club as explained by Mrs. Husketh. That was they were never certain as to what they were working for or what was to be the expected results. Whether on not the Peabody experiment, they made the members of the class the faculty of a music school, or whether or not there were to be any worthwhile things tobe expected in the future could not be ascertained. The class, however, was carried on for some time, and ascertained whether it will be continued.
Local Teachers In Class
The members of the class are,
Mrs. Loveth Usketh, teacher of
piano; Mrs. Ruth Lee McAbee, voice
and piano; Miss Elizabeth Ireland,

Jerido Slocum and Johnny Bee, both working under cork, managed to keep the customers in a happy frame of mind with the two dark brethren. Emma Simmons, singing and ren.

ABANDON PLANS FOR SECOND 'SHOW BOAT

NEW YORK. — Whether the recent suspension of Paul Robeson by Equity had any thing to do with his plans or not, Floren Ziegfeld was abandoned plans for a second company of 'Show Boat' and released all the people who had been listed for the production.
It was Ziegfeld's original intention to have the second "Show Boat" running on Broadway at the same time as the original company at the Ziegfeld Theatre. The second group was then to play Chicago and also the third at the New York Raymond Schick had been signed for the Charles Winninger role and Paul Robeson was to have the part created by Jules Bledsoe. In addition the second company would have afforded employment for a large number of other race actors. "Show Boat" is still the same, musing guitar, his work and will not dwindle quickly. It is also thought that Ziegfeld may have felt that a second company would have detracted from the excellent quality of the first one.

Conrad Nagel And Myrna Loy Starred In Vitaphone Underworld Drama
"Three Ring Marriage"
Scheduled To Play Sat.
Is there actually a criminalifl class, distinguishable and recognizable at a glance or has crybody criminal possibilities, given the necessary environment and associations?
While these questions may appear more or less sociological, they are exciting and the exciting plot of "State Street Sadie" which will be featured on the screen at the Regent Theatre, Monday Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Here we see a young man and a woman, members of respectable society, suddenly plunged into the maelstrom of underworld life, as a part of a desperate gang. Conrad Nagel plays the part of Ralph Blake the boy, where Myrna Loy is cast in the role of Slinkey, the girl in the
Tale Of The Underworld
"State Street Sadie" is the thrilling successor to "The Girl from Chicago" and the story that of a poacher who sees the need for the slaying of her father by a bandit gang. The grim menace and highlights of underworld and night life add vividness to the story which sweeps through a tumult of grit and grit. The action is a dramatic action. The Vikhapana, of course, makes the film even more realistic. George Stone and Pat Hartigan are also included in the cast ones of the strongest Warner Brothers have ever assessed. The Rat, featuring Mae Marsh is the attraction for rFriday, while "Three Rine Marriage," starring Mary Astor and Lloyd Hughes is the feature on Saturn. The usual high class program of Vitaphone acts, with the usual changes on Thursday.

Henri Bowman's "Cotton Blossoms," playing at the Lincoln Theatre this week can be picked as blooming good entertainment without making a mistake.
The veteran showman has returned to Wilmington with a spick and span vehicle that had even the hardened "avenue" patrons stamping and whistling for more. Caught at the Tuesday matinee we found Leroy White and Idroyl Hubbard at their blackface phooholliness, playing something about a human bulldog and attempting to provoke laughter. The two caused waves of laughter with the utter absurdity of their gags.
Bluch Malonson, an old-timer of the stage, handled his straight part with the ease of one of his experience while Jessie Robertson sang and pranced, leading the chorus girls with a contagious gusto and abandon. But it was left to the team of Allen and Allen, manned by the brilliant Wilmer danced the way into the hearts of the customers while George, with his eccentric dancing and freak musical instrument, bent the patrons with laughing. The pair also sang together, harmonizing well. Allen, White, Hubbard and Malonson caused merriment with their quartet number. Eliza Doctor, Mary Bell and Marion Woodau, Jessie Robertson and Wilmer, turned the prancing chorus that executed avarety of steps, much to the approval of the cash buyers. Zue Robertson was at the piano.

Robeson In London Can't Explain His Success
Has Made Good On Stage And As Singer Without Even Having A Lesson—Proclaimed Great Singer On First Public Appearance—Audiences Like To Listen.
(FROM THE LONDON EVENING NEWS AND AFRICAN WORLD)
We sat looking out over Regent's cotted; of my perspective being warped Park where little children were playing mertly under the trees and gliding pretty frocks were rowing on the glittering water.
But though I saw all these attractive sights each time my eyes strained that way my ears were filled with the sound of t gorgeously rich and flexible voice of Paul Robeson, the Negro singer and actor who is now appearing in London. With striking simplicity he was telling me about himself.
"I go on training my voice and learning all I can, but always I find myself guided by instinct; when I get on the platform to sing, and presumably I always shall."
"I shall only act in plays very
Black as the ace of spades, immensely tall, his broad shoulders and great torso filled the chair in which he sat. But it was the broad high forehead, broader than most Negroes have, the almost gentle expression of his curiously light brown eyes, and his long, slim hands that most attracted the eye. How what it is," he said. "Perhaps I never shall, but there is something within me that all my life has caused me to succeed whenever I appeared before the public far beyond what my experience, training or knowledge deserved.
I have heard many famous people discuss themselves and indulge in a little introspection, but never have I heard a man talk of himself, a gift of intellect, the almost childlike simplicity of this giant Negro genius whose father started life as a slave.
"I haven't ever been nervous of the public or frightened of appearing before a lot of people. I suppose I should be—m most other boys are. But I remember when I was only nine years old, just a child. I used to recite in the church when they had fun. One day I forgot the tee, of my piece—I think it was "The Charge of the Light Brigade." I didn't become excited nor did the people laugh at me. I just waited and they just waited until I had picked . . . the lost lines.
"Then I we: to college and there joined the debaters. It was at the period that I first noticed the attitude of all over America towards me, debated for my university against all over America and won each time.
"I played: American football and became pretty good. I remember that in a big match for my college the other side protested when I. a coloured man, walked on to the field to play against them. The protest did not worry me a lot. I course, it hurt. We all coloured in football with the heavy colour of collar as a life head."
"I plied in that match and I played hard. I wasn't unnecessarily rough, but I was rough and I handled some of their men absolutely without mercy! When I was over I could have failed with :-prise. Every man in the enemy pack filed in front of me and shook my black hand!"
he smiled his slight boyish smile again.
"Often I have wondered just what is this spirit inside of me that makes me do things right. But I have never given up; it right now is indeed a huge lodge and passed out in a collector's office. I was keen to be a lawyer. I thought, this gift of getting people to listen to me would probably be a great help.
"I was getting on very well when I was asked by some people to act in this drama and that they were getting up. At school I had acted just like other boys. I didn't particularly care for acting, but I agreed to act in this play, just for the fun of it.
"Well, it happened that Eugene O'Neill, the American dramatist, was in the house where I came round to afterwards and told me I should act and that I should play the part of Emperor Jones in his great play which was to be produced in ondon. I laughed. I appreciated his interest, and went back to my law
"O'Neill and others repeatedly asked me to do the 'Emperor'. I didn't want to. I was too interested in the law. At last, however, I played I played the 'Emperor', and the London critics said I was one of the

I go on training my voice and learning all I can, but always I find myself guided by instinct when I get on the platform to sing, and presumably I always shall.
"I shall only act in: plays very rarely now, or that I can be more alive through one single song than by doing my best in even a good play. There are so many distractions in a play, so many influences."
He smiled as I rose to go. "I shall probably never know my guardian through once I sought him earnestly, now I don't want to know him." P. M.
DANCE HALLS
With the announcement that three new dances must be learned by dance hall goers and lovers of tripping the fantastic toe, interest centers on the opening dance season.
These dances are known as the "Ectasy Glide" or the Campus Drag "and the Step Glide". They are the dances that will be done by the very collegiate, and by the elite of both Washington and Baltimore.
The Ectasy Glide, is an elaboration of the very familiar fox trot. The Campus Drag is another variety of the fox trot, dance geography po. and the step glide of the is intended to eliminate the Argentine Tango, which is a cross between a waltz and a two-step.
A shoe manufacturer in Philadelphia announced in the papers of that city, last week, that his company was producing a new shoe known as the dance king. Construction of the shoe enable the dance to have freedom of the toes, and at the same time beauty. The shoe has a leather heel with a rubber center to keep on from falling on slippery floors.

Painters, Decorators, Now Renovating Theatre Interior
Announcement was made here this week 'at the .1 Theatre, dark since June 3, will be reopened October 18th, under new management and with a policy of motion pictures and stage shows.
Peter Oletsky, white, owner of a local theatre choir is the new perator and Cincinnati's Mayor, managing the Lafayette Theatre also owned the house, although an assistant may be named soon. It is known that a full orchestra will occupy the pit and that the shows playing the house will be routed over the Majestic Theatrical Circuit. The orchestra will be a major audience contrary to the old Royal policy.
The opening of the Pennsylvania avenue house will complete the chain of theatres along the Atlantic coast and make it possible to play attractions out of New York. Just what the house is known at this time, but it is thought that the Bessie Smith vehicle, "Steamboat Days" will be chosen.
Being Renovated
The Royal Theatre has a seating capacity of 12,000 and often in its furnishings and appointments, having seven large dressing rooms are now busy getting over the house getting it in shape for the op-drops have been obtained so that the ening date and new scenery and wisteria have "best clothes" when it throws open its doors within the next two weeks.
Employed 22 Persons
When the Royal closed in June, under the operation of A. E. Lichtman, white, it had 22 people regular and resident manager, a stage crew on its payroll. The personnel included in addition to the manager of four, two motion picture operators, eight equipment operators, three ushers and a bill poster. Because of high operating costs Mr. Lichtman gave the house up in June, pointing out that his expenses averaged $3,500 weekly. Since its construction seven years ago the Royal has been regarded as a "white elephant," having passed six times into the hands of various groups. The house is owned by Dr. "Elmer Porter, white, of Potstown, Pa. and is the largest in the city playing vaudeville and pictures. High class motion pictures and vaudeville will be the policy of the new management.

Are You "Hitting On All Six"?
The human body is just like a good car — everything must be in good working order if you expect the best performance out of others. You must be 100% if your liver is out of order, your stomach upset, nerves jump or bowled up. Nine-tenths of all sickness, doctor's advice is due to stomach and bowel troubles, when you get right down to the real cause. And when they are not working well, then the nerves, heart and brain are badly affected and you can't have the health and energy you used to. If you suffer from gas, pains in the stomach or bowels, you can't live or骑 liver; if you have no appetite, can't sleep, and are nervous and all run-down, of course you don't have much "hep" or ambition to work and live like other folks.
If you can't eat, can't sleep, can't work — it's a sign your stomach and other digestive systems are full of roots, barks and herbs. For over 10 years thousands of people who have been wrecks from stomach, liver and bowel trouble, have had to suffer from food poisoning ages without results — found that this was the only way — , rebuild their worn-out tissues and make their digestive systems stronger. There is no reason why you, too, can't begin today to revitalize your whole system through the use of probiotics, probiotic-faculties and stomach corrective which has started so many thousands of people back on the road to youth, health and well-being. Your families build up sturdy, active bodies by purifying the blood, purging the poisons from the system and making the bowels open, free and regular. This unusual preparation contains no mineral drugs; it is made of vitamins and minerals, your own medicine for the sick. You can get it at your drugstreet. And you will be so delighted and amazed at the results. You will enjoy the vitality that you bless the day you started using it!

BLACK SOX AND GRAYS DIVIDE DOUBLE BILL
Heavy Artillery Booms As Locals Win First, 11-5, But Dropped Second, 11-2
The visitors eased one run across the pan in the first inning when Jelly Gardner scored on Harriet Singleton's first opener. The Black Sox tailed three runs in the half of the first. Holloway opened with a triple and scored on Washington's double. Washington based home on "Babe Ruth." Wilson's single, and Dixon brought the Babe Ruth 'h a smashing two-blow.
Sox Go On Rampage
**Sox Go on in Rampage.**
The Yokelts came in the second inning, when they scored a trio of markers, and in the eighth when they chalked up one. The Black Sox scored runs in the second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth innings. They scored a second inning and were never headed. Yokelty got two hits in the first game, one a double, while Dixon let the batsman by slamming out two doubles and two singles. Washington, Clarke and Holloway also doubled while the latter, sharing honors with Ben Taylor, rapped out a triple. Had "Uncle Ben" been faster on the paths his team had taken into a home run. He received an ovation when he pulled up at the third station. **Yokelty Fans "Beck"**
Yokelty struck out Grays, number nine, and Lewis tune among his victims and making "Jigg" Gardner, Owens, and Dihigo bite the dust a single time. "Nip" Winters walked Holloway. Washington and Wilson in succession second and third, table to table to one man — Yokelty. Owens also found Yokelty's number and whiffed Washington and Dixon.
Dihigo Has Home
Martin has been than made up of his blissless in the first game by slamming out two home runs in the nightcap, one off Hubbard's delivery, the other off Hayes. The Sox defachers seemed less aggressive than the Grays in the second contest, and the mountainers hammered Hayes and Hubbard to all corners of the lot, scoring nine runs in the fifth inning. But that the heavy artillery was silenced, for he held them to one hit for the remainder of the game. But the big bats of Poseymen had done their best in the fourth and two runs came in the fourth and sixth innings. Streeter was never in danger and had the

GHIACKO—Following a "whispering campaign" in which it is known that the recent fight between Young Jack Thompson and Joe Dundee was not on the level, and that Dundee would "coast along to the edge of the road" bout. Sig Hart, white, veteran fight manager, had his license re-issued definitely by the Illinois Athletic Commission, here last Friday.
Black Sox warriors eating out of his hand.
"The hitting of Dixon, Taylor, Clarke and Holloway, and the fielding of Lindsey, Wilson and Washburn, were features for the locals while the batting of Dihigo, Cannady and Graham, the hurling of Streeter, and Jap," Washington's fielding stood for "or for the team to be continued in Pittsburgh with the Sox having to take two of three games to win."
"He's Sunday
Sunday the Black Sox will envile the Hampden Baseball Club, white in a doubleheader at Maryland Park, and on the following Sunday the second game will start. Owner Rossiter has announced that Oscar Charleston and Warfield, of the Hildale club, will position, appear and play in the games this season, starting Sunday. Due to some differences with tl. Daisy management the two players were unable to appear against the Homestead Grass."

ONE AND TIE SECOND
NEW YORK—The Cuban Stars, behind the stellar pitching of Juan-osco, nosed out the Lincoln Giants, 5-5 in the first game of the doubleheader, and fought the Keenanmen to a 7-7 deadlock in the second contest with 6,300 customers yelled themselves hoarse. The fans were given the chance to first contest when the Lloyd tribe died the score after two hitters had been retired and all lingering hope was fast fading, when Mason received a base on balls. Rojo looped a Texas leaguer to left which bounded past Fabre for two bases scoring Mason. The fans Williams to produce the needed hit but the shortstop's best effort was a weak peep up to Selis. Millitto and Herrera lead the Cuban Stars to the third Sunday straight, featured the Lincoln's hitting with two bingles. On-Sunday at the Protective Oval at the Oakland club in a doubleheader.

Corbett-Thompson Fite?
NEW YORK. — Word has been going the rounds this week that Tom McCardie, Garden matchmaker, is negotiating for a match between Young Jack Thompson and Young Corbett, 3d white, to be stage at Madison Square Garden. Corbett also played over Thompson and also fought him to a draw.
THE PASSING REVIEW
By BILL GIBSON
FOR GODFREY'S SAKE! ajaculates Dan rarker of the N. Y. Daily Mirror, as he wails because Tex Rickard has given George the cold shoulder—and we don't mean pig meat.
Master Parker cuts loose in this wise:
"He will be mimicked by the heavyweight talent, Mr. Tex Rickard is making no effort to corral the best heavyweight now in the business of aligning fasts—namely, Mistah Gawge Godfrey. New York saw Godfrey against Johnny Risko and is still smiling at the decision that went to Risko. He is the job of the Guest and did not work in that job that when Paula was asked yesterday by Rickard whom he was willing to meet, he said "Anyone but Godfrey. Recently Godfrey showed what he could do when not under wraps by knocking out Pierre Charles in Detroit. If George ever cuts looses, knock the whole regiment in the alcoats. No he planning to be torn out of Rickard's hat. No heavyweight tournament that Rickard runs will be taken seriously, unless Godfrey is included."
And by way of correction of the statement in these pages last week concerning Godfrey's coming fight with Roberto Roberti, let me say that the bout has been played by Ebbets Field in Brooklyn, but the date has been agreed to October 3.
We agree with Singer Parker that the Leilvergian giant is having a raw deal handed him, but as he is not in a position to force him, ision Square Gad picks up his bows and picks his dough by fights among the second and third raters until he fades from the picture.
Tis very unfortunate and we denounce the practice by which our fighters are left out in the cold. Yet a half loaf is better than a stone, say we.
FOOTBALL RULE CHANGES should not cause much confusion this fall if football players should of thing of buying them- and studying them.
several coaches. Certainly coaches, players and officials should find no difficulty in understanding the rules laid down in the 1928 rule book issued in June. One or two of the important changes might well be mentioned here.
Concerning the "Shift," it has been ruled that a penalty of 15 yards shall be placed "on any linesman charging into the neutral zone less than one second after a huddle, and before the ball is put in play." In this case the linesman is guilty of violating two rules as he has made an offside play and in addition has failed to come up at least one second after the rule provides that ALL PLAYERS, regardless of whether there are two or ten in the shift, must come to a STOP for a second. An end may move one or two steps ALONG THE LINE of scrimmage to join a wing back charging a tackle, provided that one second after his team has come thru a shift. ALL PLAYERS on one team must come to a full stop at least one second before a shift play starts.
Concerning "muffs and fumbles." This year every loss of the ball by a punt catcher is a "muff" and recovery can be made only by the kicking last. Last fall a "fumble" resulted after possession to the trol of the ball, while a "fumble" resulted after possession to the ball, while a "fumble" could be picked up and run with, while a "muff" could be only recovered.
Illustrating the present rule. If team X punts to team Y and punt catcher of the Y team drops the ball after it has hit his hands, players on team X cannot pick up the ball and be er on team X until a "fumble" is ball run. Further, if players on team X only RECOVER the ball, THEY CANNOT RUN WITH IT.
These are some of the most far-reaching progresses. We'll talk about some of the others as the season progresses.
**TWAS SCADALOUS, THEY SAY,** how some of the upper court acted when Young Jack Thompson kayed Joe Dundee in Chicago a fortnight or so asleep.
For it has been said that some of the muckety-muck forgot their dignity in their hour of excitement when the dark-skinned box flattened the Nordic and did make whoops. A style that was disregarded in the past, the statement is not true, or at least oxygenated, but that's the way it came to us.
But of Young Jack Thompson we would say more. First, he received as his purse, $5,000, while the Italian received $7,500 in good old U. S. notes. While Thompson is wearing the myrtle shirt with or Dundee jacket, certain Young Corbett, 3d, because of a decision and a draw bout with him, has been boosted to hang the gongalon at his shelter.
While Dundee has come out in the press with a statement that it is Thompson next or nobody, we can assume he did for another bout. His time in North Carolina Nordic, making title, wed to know?
In the meantime they have offered Jack Britton a match with Thompson in Chicago, while Sergeant Dundee did not fight him before engaging Thompson, lost a decision to this boy, Young Corbett, 3d that I mentioned, at Madison Square Garden, last night Thompson. Corbett's victory puts him in the running with a bang, but still it seems only fair that Thompson should get the first, or should we say second—crack a that wets it now, and if anybody gets a booking with Dundee he should be the first one on the list. Of course the wise ones are already croaking that the California boy did a dumb thing by BEATING Dundee, queering as they fight, fight, fight. The chance that his chance will come again, he shall be ready for it when it arrives, if he isn't too old.
That right hand uppertrend that Thompson packs, carries the same warning as a red light. He's standing on the threshold like a man, awaiting the opportunity for which the clamoring. Will he get his chance? He are optimistic enough to believe that he will and it
And by the way, on the same card with the Corbett-Baker go, last Thursday night was the 12-round semi-final staged between Al Brown and Kid Francis, of Italy. The lanky Brown won the decision. Al will do those things, y know.
THANKEE, ROLLO, the timely info regarding the "highly touted" Brooklyn Royal Giants. It was just as I predicted. Readers of this columny, if any, may wonder if the staged "Why doesn't Nat Strong trot his gang out in this section?" The affable Dr. Rollo Wilson, the Quaker City sleuth, answers the question for me. Of that team (they recently played Hildale in Philadelphia), Wilson see. "Speak to me," he says. I have ever seen a worse team than the aggregation Nat Strong annually sends forth under the name which John Conn tried so valliantly to establish as meaning something big and famous in sports. It is an old soldier's home, a port for foundering hulks which have seven seas of water. It is a rocks sanctuary with the Bush outfit his day usually is done. It is a mediocre bunch without an outstanding player is any position."
SANDLOT BASEPALL, played on Saturday and Sundays, mostly Sandlot in stead old Baltimore has about reached the limit of one of the most prosperous seasons in the local history of the diamond pastime—that is as far as prosperity touches amateurs. For the most part average weather has prevailed and the crowds have displayed their enthusiasm for numbers. If you have a Dr. Dudl Hill Park diamonds Nos. 1 and 2 on any clear Sunday, you have seen some of the strongest lessons in inter-racial good will that it will ever be your lot to see. Crowds, composed of fans of both races have watched while the racial stakes have been lowered. You don't believe that all the rooters on the Nordics have been dark-skinned. Far from it.
But to the status of amateur baseball. Few of the teams make any money during the season. Now get this straight. We don't EXPECT them to make any money to PAY OFF the players, but even to the extent of buying a new bat or glove, they usually know how to keep them in their own jeans to keep the club team have experienced this thrill and a number that we pergunte for the love of sport alone. And that's not a fairy tale either.
Now to the prosperity. This sandiot ball is developing a wealth of baseball material that is as good if not better than that to be found in the average city. Some of the youngsters that I have viewed in action this year show that they would have continued to deceive me in cash on, on their abilities.
The greatest need-of these clubs is organization. Organized amateur baseball in Baltimore would certainly be worth while. There are enough good teams to have several organized leagues, insuring regularity of competition and doing away with pile-ups. There are victories for the season by playing a number of weaker teams. There are many the advantages to organization which involve such matters as schedule making, prizes and equal distribution of players. A good amateur league should work in Baltimore next year and while the APB is not a strong support for our league it will never violate it hopes to sponsor one or two season leagues for next year—leagues that will start on Decoration Day and wind up on Labor Day.

Your first glance tells you there's something different about this pump. Something of French daintiness. Something of the care-free elegance that only Gay Paris can give a shoe!
And well there might be! For this intriguing model was designed in Paris by Floresco. Newark bought his $32.00 model, then reproduced it for you in four big factories. Brought costs down. Eliminated the middleman. Cut out all in-between profits. Sold direct to you through Newark Stores.
Now you can wear the same or newer models as the women who pay several times as much. How to prove it? Step into any Newark store today and you will fall in love with this Floresco Pump.

Your tongue is nothing more than the upper end of your stomach and intestines. It is the first thing your doctor looks at to tell a patient the condition of your digestive system and physicians say that 90 per cent of all sicknesses start with stomach and bowel trouble.
A white or yellowish coating on your tongue is the signal of those digestive disorders. It tells you why the least exertion tires you out; why you have pains in the stomach; how much stomach digzes snail.
A white or yellowish coating on your tongue is a danger signal of those digs. It delicately tells you why the least exertion tires you out; why you have pains, in the bowels, gas, in the stomach, dizzy spells. And it's a sign you need Tanlac.

CHICAGO, (A. N. P.)—
Because Log Angeles is too
far away and Winston-Sa-
lem, North Carolina, is too
far in the South, the dele-
gates to the 24th B. M. C.,
Grand United Order of
Odd Fellows, chose Atlan-
tic City, New Jersey, as the
next meeting place of their
Biennial Movable Commit-
tee.
Edward H. Morris, Chicago, was
re-elected national grand master.
‘with all the other important national
officers.
‘Although there 1 no official an-
ouncement to sustain the report, tt
has been freely discussed that the
choice of the next meeting city and
One of the other major decisions of
the delegates grew out of certain
Feelings among & majority of the Odd
Fellows in regard to the Eiks. “It is
seid that the Odd Fellows have at
some ‘times suffered by going into
§. lly Just after the Bils Shave beet
mere,
‘Tae declaration ts made that, there
ere many young men in the Elk or-
Ser, “sporuively inclined, who take
city by storm and leave the inhabl-
fents in 2 bad mind. When the
Older, more conservative Odd Fellows
fome along, they catch all the bad
feeling’ which may, have been, caused
by the Elks. So, it was thought, that
fresmuch as the Elks had’ chosen
‘Atlantic City for next, year, whether
they go there or not, it would be
Sse for the Odd Fellows to, choose
that efty for the year after, they be
ihe rather sure that the Biks would
Rot go t9 the seashore cite two years
in succession.
‘Army Of Organizer
‘The other metor decision in which
the influence of the Els was seen

Bare Legs!!
Is It PROPER for School Girls to WEAR Them?
And the girls are putting up a he-man fight for the right to go stockingless if they so wish, and they do so wish when they have something enchanting to expose.
The habit of going bare-legged has come to Baltimore and via New York to the rest of the country from Paris, the Riviera, and the musical comedy shows, and is the natural evolution, according to Broadway scientific observers of legs, of the gradual shortening of the skirt.
Here, in Baltimore, the appearance of flesh-colored stockings created a little rustle of excitement; no stockings at all is scarcely noticed.
But out in the wild and woolly West, the appearance of bare legs, even when they were so charmingly formed as to be a purely aesthetic study, has created as much of a furore as the finding of a bottle of liquor in a temperance leader's hip pocket.
Carmel Lopez and Mary Saunders want you to be absolutely biased in judgment as to the whether stockings improve legs, as the obligingly pose "with" and "without."

LEGS—legs—legs! Especially girls'—er underpinnings. What an awful lot of trouble they're causing nowadays! The ladies—God bless 'em—are getting a little tired of wearing silk stockings that cost a lot of money, especially in the summer time, and the result is that some of them are being kicked out of school, dance halls, libraries and a few other places where the sight of an unclad lovely leg seems to scartle old maids.
IN THE WEST

In San Francisco several girls were ordered to leave the class room at the white Lowell High School by Miss E. LaCoste, vice-principal, who objected to their appearing stockingless as "indecent."
The other girls in the high school rose in defense of the feminine right to go without stockings. Scores of them discarded sheer silk and scores of them were ordered home.
The girls announced that they would have a showdown on bare legs, and took the matter to the Board of Education. The State Department of Public Instruction, realizing that this was going to be a ticklish scrap, announced that they had nothing to do with expelling the girls and had nothing to say as to whether the lovely creatures might or might not come to school stockingless.

The attorney general and a crew of assistants pored over voluminous tomes for many a night, and concluded that there was no law compelling the girls to wear stockings. All they had to do was to wear clean clothes when they attended school. Stockings, rolled or supported, was not specified in the statute books.

The controversy over clad and unclad—er—limbs, outside of being somewhat economic, has an aesthetic side which the girls are bringing to the front, especially in the schools.
"Did Venus have any stockings," one girl asked out at the Lowell HI School. "Did Cleopatra roll 'em or did she wear garters. She never heard of stockings. The fair Greek goddesses, whom they make us study in school, the statues in the museums—who ever heard of a statue with her stockings rolled or supported?"

Are you in love? Have you any heart problems? Ask Aunt Phyllis care of the AFRO. Dear Aunt Phyllis:
We are seniors in the high school and belong to a number of school clubs. Our parents say that these clubs supply us with enough outside interests and social affairs. We would like however to have just one little club of about ten members of our own bunch to meet outside of school. Do you think this would be too many?
You did not tell me how many their activities are. However, I can clubs you already belong to nor what appreciate how you feel about it. When you have completed your high school course this year your classmates will scatter and school clubs will be no more. Then you will want a group of your most intimate friends to get together occasionally. Perhaps you might organize a club to meet once a month. In this way you would not be overburdening yourselves.
Dear Aunt Phyllis:
I have been going around with a fellow for two years and we have talked of marrying, although no definite plans have been set. He is very frequently and visits me regularly. attentive to me, he takes me out I happen to know however that there are two other girls whom he visits
Do the illustrious Adelaide Hall's legs with conventional silk stockings, look any better than Ethel Moses' clad only in nature's covering.
Chicago may be tight on school histories praising King George, but school girls may wear stockings, roll 'em or take 'em off. The school board won't interfere.
In Washington and Baltimore the bare leg style has not created even a ripple.
Old timers remember the fun caused 30 years ago when "rainy day" skirts came in vogue. Only the instep of the girls showed then and churches and Sunday schools got on their ears.
Why, there are even some who remember way back when wise cracks were made about the skirt being up to the calf! Look where it is now! In fact, everybody's looking!
Moreover when a brown skinned Cleopatra walks down Druid Hill Avenue looking like a million dollars, it takes a far sighted sheik to tell whether she's wearing $2.50 chiffon or nature's own. Lower Druid Hill avenue opines that it's not the stockings at all, but what's in 'em that counts.
Stockings and Ostrich feathers never. So Ethel Moses wears none in this outfit. Bare legs save stocking bills, and as to looks, we leave it to you.

Your problem is a common one these days for many reasons. Many couples find themselves drifting into a very definite love affair with no definite understanding about marriage. Very often as in your case the man intentionally or otherwise keeps the girl from associating with her friends, for the men think she is engaged to him and often her girl friends think she is too busy entertaining him to bother with them. So after two or three years, she finds herself dependent upon this fellow for the normal companionship of young people like herself.
This state of affairs is always rather tragic for the girl. The man could easily find another girl, for he usually has one or more with whom he keeps in touch all the time he is going around with the girl. But she has fallen out of step with her crowd and sometimes never gets back.
I would advise any girl to keep around with them unless there is a in touch with other fellows and go very definite understanding between her and the man. Many girls will not do this because of their fear of making the man jealous and of losing him. I believe that most men if they really love the girl will cement the friendship with an engagement rather than lose the girl.

If C. B. Freeland live 80 years old and at that he is the night watchman at new Provident Hospital on Division St. near Mosher St. with a record that might be envied by all the night watchmen in the city.
John D. Rockefeller, New York multi-millionaire, gave $55,000 toward the erection and maintenance of the new hospital which will be opened next month. Only one other donor, Julius Rosenwald, has given this amount to Provident.

In the early days of Freeland's guardianship o' the hospital and its grounds, he had the similar privilege of ejecting Albert I. Casselle, architect of the building and the most noted architect of the race. Mr. Casselle not only designed the $500.-000 Howard University Medical Building, but also the University's new dining hall and he has made of Provident Hospital the best equipped institution of its kind in the city.
This did not cut any figure with C. B. Freeland. His orders were to admit no one, and architect Cascelle was ejected at the point of a cane.
AFRO Reporter
AFRO reporters fared on better. Newspaper men instructed to go thru the hospital in its early stages of construction and find out how the work was progressing were turned down cold. Various ruses met with no success. Orders were orders.
Born In Maryland
Mr. Freeland was born in Calvert County, Maryland, 80 years ago. For 20 years he served as fireman aboard British merchant ships and the strict discipline he learned there has made him valuable as a custodian and property caretaker.
Officials of Provident Hospital swear by his efficiency. If Mr. Freeland has orders to turn out lights at 72 o'clock, out they go; not one minute of 12 nor one minute after, but at 12 o'clock on the second.
Before his arrival, small boys had a fashion of playing ball in the hospital yard and breaking windows. No windows are broken now. Asked how he stoped the practice, Freeland replied.
"I just reasoned with them. Now they are all my friends. In a few minutes talk I usually made them ashamed of themselves and showed them what a fine building the hospital building is."
Years At Sea
In his years at sea travelling all over the world, Freeland has had both ankles broken and has lost a finger, but there is nothing the matter with his eyes.

He was given strict orders not to permit anyone into the building, so when John D.'s special agent came to Baltimore recently and visited the hospital to see how the money was being spent, he didn't get in. No, sir, C. B. Freeland saw to that.
"Orders are orders," he said.
John D.'s agent had to look up some of the officials before he could go through the building.

With a cane as his chief weapon, he makes his rounds of the building when he comes on duty at four o'clock in the afternoon and from then on until next day, the hospital property is safe.
Pending opening of the hospital, thousands of dollars are invested in x-ray and flouroscope equipment. Lumber and bits of plumbing had a way of disappearing before Freeland came. They don't now.

Among the bits of equipment in his charge is a $580 light for the main surgical operation room of the hospital. This light was manufactured in Paris and was built especially with a dome and a number of reflecting mirrors so arranged that no matter in what position the surgeon's hand finds itself it will cast no shadow.
Everything Safe
Yes, everything is safe at Provident Hospital. It's new lawn is seeded and grass is growing. Nobody carts away the lumber which served as packing cases for the hospital equipment. When the hospital gets ready to dispose of it, it will, but nobody will steal it. No, sir, Charlie Freeland is on the job.

Don't Make a Toy Out of Baby Babies Have Nerves
By RUTH BRITTAIN
Much of the nervousness in older children can be traced to the overstimulation during infancy, caused by regarding baby as a sort of animated toy for the amusement of parents, relatives and friends. Baby may be played with, but not for more than a quarter of an hour to an hour daily. Beyond that, being handled, tickled, caused to laugh or even scream, will sometimes result in vomiting, and invariably causes irritability, crying or sleeplessness
Fretfulness, crying and sleeplessness from this cause can easily be avoided by treating baby with more consideration, but when you just can't see what is making baby restless or upset, better give him a few drops of pure, harmless castoria. It's amazing to see how quickly it calms baby's nerves and soothes him to sleep; yet it contains no drugs or opiates. It is purely vegetable—the recipe is on the wrapper. Leading physicians prescribe it for colic, cholera, diarrhea, constipation, gas on stomach and bowels, feverishness, loss of sleep and all other "upsets" of babyhood. Over 25 million bottles used a year shows its overwhelming popularity. With each bottle of Castoria, you get a book on Motherhood, worth its weight in gold. Look for Chas. H. Fletcher's signature on the package so you'll get genuine Castoria. There are many imitations.

If a sudden leak appears in the wash tub, press firmly some ordinary laundry soap into the crack from the outside. It proves very satisfactory until a permanent repair can be made.

Belts are many and various. Metal effects, strictly Art. Moderne, are shown; some all metal; others with alternating plaque: simulating semprecious stones so much in vogue in jewelry. The leather belt occasionally follows suit, while the fabric belt contents itself with a very obvious buckle.

"AlwaysI seek the elder saleswoman," says the primma donna. "Not that the younger ones are not capable—not at all. But they always want me to have the things they admire themselves, whether becoming to me or not. The older saleswoman has learned to judge the type, size up her customer; and then I get the benefit of her years of experience. So I am for the gray-haired saleswoman every time." As the primma donna enjoys repute for clever dressing, we wonder if this how she attains it.

THE RED HAT
A tide of bargain-seekers surged through the main street of the shopping district. Two women detached themselves from the bargain-bent throng and paused before Donaldson's window to look at the hats on display. One woman, dowdily dressed and nearing middle-age, seemed not so much interest in the hats before her as in the young woman standing near her. Her cold blue eyes swept the girl from head to foot with a look of mingled hatred and curiosity. The very idea of a well-dressed and self-assured nigger was something to disturb one's composure. Strange too, that a "nigger" could manage to be so. "Niggers were getting mighty uppish nowadays—too uppish."
it down to the basement."
"I see."
"There is one you want. A new shipment came in yesterday. Did you see a little red felt in the window. It's just the thing for you. We had two. I've sold one, but I think I could get the one out of the window for you. Shall I send it down for you?"
To mention the hat was like turning a knife in a wound. It hurt and shocked her that Donaldson's should bar her because of her color, but that was at nothing compared to the fact that there was a possibility of not being able to get the hat. If she went to the basement she could get it.
rounded by a small army of women. Red faced women, greasy faced women, warm women, excited women pulled and jerked this way and that in their efforts to ericate some special baragin. Some ferreted under the piles like so many dogs in search of clusive rats. The broken English of the foreign born, mingled with the shrill voices of the poor whites and with the soft slurred accents of the Southern Negroes. Hangers heavy with dresses—some gaudy of color and impossible of workmanship, others odds and from the elusive dress department — were surrounded by women pulling this way and that and clamoring impatiently to the overworked sales girls.
But the slim brown girl was completely unconscious of the woman's presence. She was too interested in a small red felt hat to give attention to anything else. Some days ago, Sally had pictured to herself just such a hat, but she had not dared to expect that she would actually find it. Yet, here it was before her—a hat of softest felt with its narrow brim held sauccily up on one side by an impudent looking little brass dog, while the other side drooped demurely.
It seemed to Sally as she stood there visioning herself in the hat, that it had been made specially for her. The vivid red was just the right shade to flatter the soft coppery brown of her skin. What mere male would be able to resist her dark eyes flashing from beneath its pert little brim? What female would not envy her its possession? It was the hat of hats and Sally knew that the happiness of her immediate future, to say nothing of the happiness of her fast approaching vacation, depended the little red hat.
She did not notice the woman who pushed ahead of her to enter the elevator first. It was not until she felt a sharp jab in her side as she was about to step off the elevator, that she saw the woman for the first time. She was literally elbowed into noticing the poor white woman, who had broken the thread of her pleasant anticipation, in a rude effort to assert her Nordic right to be first in all things, even in getting off an elevator.
The jab had been painful, but Sally felt neither anger nor resentment. Rather she felt a twinge of pity for a woman who could be moved to uttermost rudeness by the mere sight of a slim brown girl in front of her. Queer things, some white people! Race prejudice—that was too vast a problem for present consideration. She dismissed the matter and returned to the hat.
All the saleswomen were busy. Where was Miss Jane, who usually waited on her? There she was. She had a customer and that customer was none other than the woman who had shoved her! No other girl free She had better wait for Miss Jane Meanwhile she would watch to see what kind of hat the woman would buy.
Sally's critical eye noted the woman's badly fitting dress of cheap volle with a hideous pattern of large bright blue flowers scattered over a vivid green ground; the down-at-the-heel imitation reptile skin shoes and the cheap rayon hose. Involuntarily turned comparatively to her own reflection in the mirror at her side. The trim figure in the tan silk sport dress, the natty little tan straw hat the beige hose and the tan oxfords was a pleasing contrast to the dowdy figure on the other side of the shop. She could not resist a small self-satisfied style because of this.
She glanced at her wrist watch. Already she had been there nearly ten minutes. There was other shopping to be done. She could not wait much longer for Miss Jane. Better to see if some other girl could wait on her now. Two girls, apparently waiting for two customers to make a selection from a row of hats before them, snuckered as Sally passed. She did not notice, then, but afterwards it occurred to her that such a thing had never happened in Donaldson's before. Miss Jane was free at last. Sally hastily made her way toward the little Irish woman who had so many times helped her to select the hat best suited to her personality. She smiled, but evidently Miss Jane had not seen her for she was moving away. Sally quickened her pace and caught up with her.
"Miss Jane, I've been waiting for you. Can you wait on me now?" Miss Jane turned about sharply her face flushed. She gave Sally a swift pitying glance and turned her eyes away as though she would avoid the eager, smiling, brown eyes. She seemed confused and utterly miserable. She hated the task before her. It must be hard for this girl, no matter who told her, but the blow would be doubly hard coming from her. She had tried to elude her, had tried to save them both this pain, this embarrassment which was now inevitable. Now she must face it.
"Miss Smith, I'm so sorry! I-1—it is so hard to tell you this. Er-er—our present policy—you see we've changed to a new management and—and we—we can't cater to you any longer in this department."
"You mean I can't buy any more hats here? Donaldson's isn't catering to colored trade any longer?" "Yes, about that any way. But, you know I'm sorry. I've always enjoyed waiting on you. Under the new management we can't cater to colored patrons up here but—but—er—a—if there's a hat you want I could send
THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER

"There is one you want. A new shipment came in yesterday. Did you see a little red felt in the window. It's just the thing for you. We had two. I've sold one, but I think I could get the one out of the window for you. Shall I send it down for you?" To mention the hat was like turning a knife in a wound. It hurt and shocked her that Donaldson's should bar her because of her color, but that was at nothing compared to the fact that there was a possibility of not being able to get the hat. If she went to the basement she could get it.
The basement? She had never been there. What was it like? Was it a kind of Jim Crow department especially provided for Negroes? To make a purchase there, if this be true, must be to admit one's self inferior. To retain one's pride and walk out was to give up the hat.
She hesitated, torn between her feminine desire for the hat and her racial indignation at the insult—for insult it was. At that moment the hat seemed the most desirable thing in the world. It was a vital tangible thing. It would enhance her piquant prettiness. It would bring her the admiring glances of men and the envious glances of women. Her whole happiness seemed dependent upon the hat. On the other hand there was her race pride. There had been much talk of race pride lately. Race pride conjured up unpleasant thots and bitter memories. It could neither be touched nor seen, but it made itself unpleasantly felt. It made one no longer just a person among other persons, but it set one off as a black person—a Negro. It reminded one that one must live a life of segregation economically and socially. It made one smart, under the sting of unpleasant memories of jeers and taunts. It cramped one's vision and narowed one's world. It would rob her of the hat.
What did race pride matter beside so fetching a thing as this red hat? Ah, she must have it, no matter what the cost. It was her hat—the one hat in all the world, best suited to set off her own peculiar charm.
"Yes. Miss Jane, you may send it down."
She had said the words that would brand her as an inferior, but she had no regrets. She was not sorry for soon she would be the possessor of the red hat.
The basement sprawled before her—a place noisome and motley. There was a table piled high with cheap silk underwear. Here a counter loaded with bread, buns, cakes, pies and tarts. There a table of shoes, sur-
rounded by a small army of women. Red faced women, greasy faced women, warm women, excited women pulled and jerked this way and that in their efforts to etricate some special baragin. Some ferreted under the piles like so many dogs in search of elusive rats. The broken English of the foreign born, mingled with the shrill voices of the poor whites and with the soft slurred accents of the Southern Negroes. Hangers heavy with dresses—some gaudy of color and impossible of workmanship, others odds ands from the elusive dress department — were surrounded by women pulling this way and that and clamoring impatiently to the overworked sales girls.
Surveying the scene from the stairway, Sally sickened with disgust. Crossing the ocean in the steerage must be like this. Suddenly there flashed across her vision the woman who had shoved her. She was wearing a red felt hat—the red hat. There she stood buying buns. She looke dmore dowdy than before with the small hat perched foolishly on one side, with the strings of colorless hair about her face. Somehow the little hat seemed no longer the one in all the world. It looked utterly ridiculous. Even the little brass dog had lost his air of impudence.
One gance was enough. Sally turned and fiked up the steps. Outside a cool breeze fanned her burning face. She looked the facts in the eye. She had condoned the insult. For the sake of a hat she had admitted herself as less than that woman. She hated herself. She hated Donaldson's. Most of all she hated the circumstance that forced her pretty, intelligent, well-bred Sally Smith, to buy in a bargain basement, while an ignorant, homely, ill-bred white woman could buy where she pleased.
Again the woman passed her, but she no longer glared at the slim brown girl rather she leered in triumph in the glory of the red hat.

Troublesome
By NINA TEMPLE
A housewife writes to me that her fingernails are a source of continual chagrin to her. She has to do heavy housework that discolors them and she cannot get them in condition easily. You have seen nails like that dark and unsightly. For a moment I was nonplussed and then I suddenly remembered a little hint given me by a woman similarly situated.
This woman would always dip her fingers into flour just after cleaning them well and she kept them filled with flour while doing the housework. When she had finished it was only necessary to remove the flour with the orangestick and behold her fingers were spick and span. I pass this along to the housewife and to you.

THE FLAG ABOVE THE SCHOOL BOUSE DOOR
A Recitation In cities and in villages, in country districts scattered wide.
Above the school-house door it floats,
a thing of beauty and of pride.
The poorest child, the richest heir,
'tis theirs in common to adore
For 'tis their flag that proudly floats,
—the flag above the school-house
door.
What does it mean, O careless boy,
O thoughtless girl at happy play?
Red for the blood your fathers shed
on some far off earth.
To mourn, but gave their all to save the flag above the school-house door.
And blue,—sweet hope's etherial blue
—the color of true loyalty—
Red, white and blue united in one grand harmonius trinity;
Tis yours to love! tis yours to serve!
tis yours to cherish evermore!

God keep it ever floating there—the flag above the school-house door! —HARRIET CROCKER LEROY

ROGERS DISCUSSES IMMORALITY AMONG EUROPEAN WHITES
Women After 35 Have Swell Chance To Get Married-Women In Africa Decline To Sell Themselves-"Houses Of Men For Women"-Prostitution Open On Continent, More Guarded In England
PARIS, FRANCE, (By J. A. ROGERS)—As was said there are very many more women than men in Europe as compared with America, and this also makes a great difference in the sex attitude of the two civilizations.
The chief reason for the smaller number of women in America is that the latter is a newer country—a country to which emigrants are still coming. Emigrants are usually men, and this means that they leave the women in Europe increasing.
Woman More In U. S. A.
Woman in America occupies a much higher position than in Europe. And this probably not all due to what is claimed is the higher respect for womanhood in America. To thinking all that the talk one curs in America about the sacred is of womanhood, the purity of manhood and the like is sheer skink and som uch hypocrisy. Women are neither better nor worse in men. For every good quality that can be named in one sex, another can be named for the opposite sex. Women occupy a higher position in America simply because they are fewer. It is the old law of supply and demand, for what is scarce dear, and what is plentiful is
Emasculated Males
It is no wonder then, that the European regards the American male is a sort of emasculated creature from the manner in which the American dances attendance on the female. On the other hand, the European woman thinks the American male almost perfection because of his tentiveness to women. The European woman has to gamble for the male, she is thankful for small mercies. The competition among the women is so great that a woman at thirty-five has all chances of getting married. The phenomenon that strikes the American visitor to Europe is the large number of old men with young girls, some still in their teens.
Losing One Man No Bother
On the other hand the American woman is exacting. She not only wants all your salary, but a mortgage on your home as well. Divorces are much more plentiful in America, with the women being the chief seekers of it. The American woman knows that if she loses one man she'll be able to get another. Of course, all of this, must be understood, is a broad comparison.
The European woman, reversely, hangs on to her man. Adultery in Europe is just as plentiful as in America but the European woman moves it with a more lenient eye. The Latin usually has a wife and mistress, just as the average South-ian white man has a wife and a coloured sweetheart.
Light ad Dark
in speaking of American women include colored ones. The nearest American approach to the attitude the European woman is the dark-Negro woman, who because of the american mania to be whiter and ill whiter is last in the running, the lighter colored women, sought by both white and black, are, broadly speaking about as spolit creatures are to be found anywhere on the planet.
Indeed, one may say, the plainer and older European women are really "the black women" of Europe. Think of millions and millions of women with nop respect of finding an anchored male, or indeed, even a floating one. And the older they get the ungrrier they get for love. The English old maid is as fixed a type as the ondon Cockney. Maupassant's "Miss Harriett" reveals perfectly the type of the woman. English or otherwise, unable to find a man. Of course, I mean the normal type, for percentage of women, are. perhaps, old maids from deliberate choice.
Women Who Work
The European woman, broadly speaking, occupies as I said, pretty much the same economic position as the darker Negro women do in America. White womanhood is worshipped in America but it is a drug on the market in Europe, particularly in Southern Europe. Another thing that surprises the American tourist is the vast amount of rough work done by the women all over Europe, chiefly in Italy and Germany. Over and over I have heard American the manner in which European wowomen express their indignation at men must work. Has these same folks been in the South, and had the eyes to perceive, they would have discovered that the black woman there works about the same. I have not the figures here but as far as I can remember them from the census the percentage of Negro married women who work is about
54 against 4 of the white American married woman, and the number of single Negro women employed as against that of single white women is almost as great proportionally.
Prostitution Thrives
As may be imagined in a land where employment is scarce and women are so plentiful prostitution thrives. And thrives openly, even in dignified England. These "daughters of joy" may be seen in large numbers any night in the neighborhood of Regent Street and Piccadilly, and are just as plentiful as in Montmarte or Berlin or Vienna. Soliciting is against the law in England but there are spots in London where the women solicit openly for the English "bobby" is not so incorruptible as we in America have been led to believe.
Rogers Counts Seventeen
Because the English prostitute cannot solicit openly as the German, French, Italian, Belgian, Spanish, or Dutch one, she has many rushes for attracting clients one of which is to cast most appealing glances toward the prospective client, or to walk boldly up to him, take him by the arm, and pretend he is a relative or old friend.
One evening at Oxford Circus I was waiting for a friend who was late, and I counted seventeen women who made sheep's eyes at me. One of them more persistent than the rest actually picketed me in the hope perhaps that my friend would not show up. One of the most pathetic sights in any large European city, chiefly London and Vienna are the women, past fifty, desperately trying to look young and attractive again, walking the streets in the hope of finding a client. And the clients they do find are of the dregs of human-
America Not So Good
It must not be forgotten, too, that prostitution thrives in America where because of the smaller ratio of women, and the abundance of work for them, there is little or no excuse for it. This is true even of the South where white womanhood is set on a pedestal. In Louisville, Ky., for instance, I saw white prostitutes soliciting openly in the business district. Those who read my "Impressions of Dixie, will recall a protest that was re-printed there in from one of the leading white dailies. This was from a white reader, and dealt with the manner in which colored women were permitted openly to solicit white men and boys in the redlight district which bordered on the Colored High School.
African Women Do Not Sell Themselves
The law in America, very rightly, is severe on prostitution, for as was said there is little excuse for it there. Nevertheless, prostitution seems to be one of the products of civilization, trace it as far back as we will.
In primitive Africa, and similar communities, the man purchases his wife, it is true, but no primitive African woman sells herself to all comers as does her civilized sister in the white mans towns on the coast.
Someone, Shaw. I think, called prostitution, the oldest profession in the world. It probably inheres in the nature of most women and will remain that way until wealth is more evenly divided between the sexes, or women cease needing finery; or civilization ceases the production of the mentally defective.
Male Prostitutes Too
And speaking of prostitutes, one must not forget the male prostitute which also thrives in Europe and America as well, though more in the former.
Among the principal clients of the male prostitute in European tourist centres are the rich American women with husbands at home. There are regular houses with male inmates to which these women go, and lest my word on the matter should be doubted I will quote from a very remarkable new book written by Maryse Chois, a noted writer who spent a month among the prostitutes and wrote down her impressions, with a careful description of one of these houses.
"House of Men for Women"
"Mrs. Knox." writes Maryse Choisy in the chapter entitled "House of Men for Women." is an American
woman high in color and in shoe- heels. She is the wife of a congress- man, and has the air of being very correct. Her husband is an ardent supporter of prohibition but she drinks all the cocktails she can get." Having won the confidence of Mrs. Knox. Maryse Choisy is told of the house after taking an oath that she will "be discreet and tell no one." "There," explains Mrs. Knox, "is a very good house, known only to initiates. It is a house of men for women. None of your vulgar gigolos. Oh no! gentlemen. For the most part Russian princes. The price commences at eight dollars. But at that one only gets poor students. Russian princes are dearer. (Poor Russian princes, what crimes are committed in their names)"
Eight Dollars Is Price
Maryse Choisy replies for that eight dollars she would accept nothing less than an English lord or a French duke. Mrs. Knox replies very seriously: "Oh, I do not think you'll find any of those there".
Both start for the house. "We stop before a cosy house hidden by a clean, geometrical, well-kept garden. It could be the home of an old dowager with trains of velvet and a gallery of ancestors. It could be the retreat of a poet, or of a middle-class couple with a large family. Inside is an appearance of great luxury. One smells the steam heat, the soap, the American atmosphere.
"An influence of decorative art spreads over the furniture. A dame welcomes us with a wordly smile to a wordly tea. She makes social presentations, which sound like a reception at the American Embassy. I hear only Prince X — Duke Y — Count Z." But among these princes, dukes, counts, and what-nots the writer recognizes two pimps she had met at another place. Mrs. Knox whispers in her ear pointing to the men: "Choose dear!"
"I am very courteous: 'After you, dear friend."
"No, after you, dear," insists Mrs. Knox.
She Selects A Prince
Maryse Choisy finally selects one who calls himself Prince Ludmirsky-Kossatkoff and taking aside puts him under a close cross-examination whereupon the panic-stricken man admits that himself like the rest are plebian-born, brought there to fool these stupid women.
"Back in the automobile Mrs. Knox boasts about her Prince Iger—He told me I was very pretty today.' Mrs. Knox is not very pretty.)"
One thing I do hope, after what I have seen and heard of the conduct of white American men and women in Europe, that I will be in an audience some day and hear some Nordic speaking of the immorality of Negroes. Some years ago the head of the Open Court Publishing firm of Chicago offered me of her own will, enough money to publish one of my books, but after she had read in two of them what I said of the immorality of white people, compared with which I said that of the Negro was infantile, she withdrew her offer in such indignation that I cannot help thinking what might have happened to her had I been armed with the information I now have. Then I was speaking mainly of the immorality I had seen among white people on Pullman cars.
Much more could be said on this unsavory subject, but I have seen "Show Boat" in London, and have had an interview with Garvey, and will write of them in my next articles.
Watch Telephone Mouthpiece
(By Algenon B. Jackson for (ANP.)
Few people stop to realize the danger of the telephone mouthpiece as a carrier of disease. In the course of a conversation we breathe into the telephone, laugh and cough, and with each expiration is left an invisible collection of germs for the next user to pick up.
In a bacteriological investigation of twenty-nine mouthpieces made by Dr. Jean Broadhurst, Associate Professor of Biology at Teachers' College, Columbia University, every one showed coccus forms, characteristic of skin contact. Ten of the twenty-nine, when pressed by a swab, as many thoughtless person presses his lips to the mouthpiece, showed streptococci, a germ of the pneumonia family, thus clearly indicating mouth contact.
"This indicates that even casual mouth contact with the telephone mouthpiece may transfer any disease organisms presents on it, and suggests the need of greater care on the part of the telephone users."
Danger may be counteracted by including the cleaning of the telephone with soap and warm water in the daily household routine. The mouthpiece should be separated from the telephone and carefully washed and dried before being replaced.
Beware of keeping the mouth too close to the receiver, and if you must cough, take the precaution of turning aside and covering your cough for the benefit of the next person to use the phone.

O. T. In Fite Of His Life
Two Old Veterans, Both 80, Fight It Out With Canes Until Afro Reporter Comes To Their Aid.
Two old fellows shaking their canes under each other's noses attracted the attention of the AFRO reporter in front of Provident Hospital, Monday.
The situation was so unusual, that he investigated and found Old Timer, 87, engaged in an argument of some proportion with C. B. Freeland, 80, night watchman of the New Provident Hospital.
"Ive got orders to look at this hospital and tell what it looks like for the AFRO-AMERICAN," shrilled Old Timer.
"I got orders to keep you and everybody else out," stormed the night watchman in reply. "You ain't no John D. Rockefeller and I kept him out."
The AFRO reporter got an official permit for Old Timer to go through the building and peace was restored, but the two old men grumbled at each other considerably as they went over the building in a thorough investigation.
The reporter wanted to leave on another assignment but fearing resumption of hostilities between the two men, he stayed around. Old Timer wanted to hear the hospital radio as soon as he saw the head-pieces attached to each hospital bed. The night watchman said it was too late and it might disturb the neighbors.
Old Timer wanted to ride upstairs on the elevator, but the night watchman said if he couldn't walk up the steps he would have to stay down. The old men weathered another crisis when Old Timer wanted the watchman to turn on the big $580 light in the operating room. The custodian of the building refused, saying it was too valuable a light to be turning it on and off for every Tom, Dick and Harry. The crisis came when Old Timer asked permission to see the much-talked of morgue, the automatic ice refrigerating plant. "Tain't no use you looking at that," said the watchman, "cause you will be down in the morgue soon enough, anyhow."
Old Timer coughed, stuttered, exploded and cussed until a miraculous thing happened. The night watchman disregarding Old Timer, came upon a two-wheel truck in the hallway. Despite his years, he stooped down and with one hand picked, it up on one wheel and whirled it up into the corner.
Old Timer's eyes popped.
"Tain't but one man in the world can do that."
"Says which?" said the night watchman.
"Charlie Freeland," said O. T.
"That's me," said the night watchman.
"Stevedore of Sparrows Point?"
"Nothing different," said the watchman. Canes were dropped and hats thrown into the air as the old veterans who had worked together 50 years ago stevedoring on the Baltimore wharves rushed into each other's arms. War was over. Peace had been declared and the reporter, his eyes moistened at what such a reunion meant to the old fellows, slipped out the back way.
African City Buried 1,200 Yrs. Dug Up
May Throw Light Upon Largest Civilization While Europe Was Still In Dark Ages.
LEPTIS MAFNA, LYBIA Africa. A discovery that may throw important light upon the earliest civilization of mankind, an African culture, has been made here, says the "Asheoligist News Digest." Out of the sands of Tripolitania, where for twelve centuries it has laid dead and buried, a magnificent city of African origin has arisen.
Is Rich In Historical Relies
Two years ago, when archeologists of many nations came here, there was merely a desert. Today there is a "skelton city" of temples, monuments, arches, splendid columns and private villas.
The facades of the unearthed shops are enriched with sculptured marbles of rare beauty. A beautiful column stands between every two doors.
Many of the works of architecture which were found crumbled under their covering of sand have been rebuilt with the original stones. The four-faced arch of Septimus Severus, the Roman Emperor who was born here and died at York in England, has been rebuilt with its own blocks and ornaments.
An Episode In History
Amongthe finds of the archeologists, most of whom are Italian, are exquisite sculptured figures of gods, warriors, priests and magistrates.
This skeleton city of Leptis Magna once was a flourishing port town with a population of 60,000. When the Romans took it over from the Africans it became the most important commercial town in the Mediterranean. Here came all the riches of Africa, and were loaded on ships which found a refuge here from the devastating north winds.
When Rome began its long decline Leptis sank too. Its ruin hastened by river floods. When the Turks conquered Aleandria in the sevent century, they found Leptis covered by sand and already forgotten. Leptis then became the Pompeii of Africa.

Rev. M. Molock Tells Conferences "Rousements" Are Needed In Church
REV. JAMES WELCOMED
New Leadenhall Pastor
Made Member
"Things of the world arouse men to the point where it sends them to Hell, why should it not be right for sermons to arouse men to Hell, why should it ask the Rev. M. Molock, at the Baptist Ministers' Meeting, Monday. Rev. Mr. Molock declared that the Rev. C. P. Dixon, who had been a minister of the church, Shilch ten meetings, did more good in the city than most of the churches put together. From 1,500 to 2,000 people turned out each night, he said, and there must have been real people who the man or people would not have listened to him so faithfully.
Visitors
Among visitors who spoke was the Rev. W. P. Fisher, of Chicago, who remarks: "I have students who have left me dead deal of their power, because they don't give up the worldly things that they should. God can't vest his power in a man who doesn't be a real defender. Every man would be a Christian, the divine continued, if God would let us be free to explore and do interesting things."
The meeting was opened by the Rev. J. S. Burks.

IN MEMORIAM
GIBSON—In loving remembrance of our dear mother Edith, who passed away September 22, 1927.
One year has passed, our hearts still As time flies on we miss her more; God called her home—it was His will—But in our hearts we love her still, her memory is as dear today. As in the hour she passed away; We did our best, God only knew, To ease her pains, which were not few. Cut out of life, no warning given. Death strikes its fatal blow; Oh, may her soul now rest in Heaven. For it's God's will, we know. BY THE FAMILY.
GORDON—In sad and loving remembrance of our dear and devoted mother, Columbus, who departed this life 9 year ago. September 18, 1919.
Before our eyes he faded.
Growing weaker every day;
he was taken to him.
Until God took him away.
Jesus speaks in time of sorrow.
And His blessed peace imparts;
In the desolate homestead,
In his comfort broken hearts.
The man named did much for us.
Now helplessly they lay;
God knew they worked continuously.
But they are gone to-day.
More and more each day we miss you.
Friends may think our wound is the
But little know the sorrow.
That lies within our hearts con-
sealed.
By his wife, MRS. MARY A.
GORDON, daughter, MRS. MAMIE
SLYE, two sons, HARRY L. and
CLAREN F. GORDON.
JACKSON — In loving remembrance
of my father, Charles Jackson, who
departed this life four years ago, up
on whom I have always looked as
a guidance in this world of woe.
How he has gone and left me
To share my part, to tell the
number the kindness,
As he was to his child and wife.
I hope I may be able to meet him,
And share a part of heaven.
Where I know he has gone.
For he said he had been forgiven.
By his daughter MARY S. J.
JACKSON YOUNG, Hurlock, Md.
PEAKER — In loving remembrance of
my dear wife and our dear mother,
that separated this life
September 16, 1927.
When you weil
In our heart, your memory lingers,
In your fond and true;
There is not a day, dear mother,
That we do not think of you.
That is Her HUSBAND and CHILDREN.
Loving and kind in all her ways,
Upright and just to the end of her
Sincere and kind in heart and mind.
What a beautiful memory she left behind.
Her MOTHER and SISTER.
WARNER—In loving remembrance of my dear father, Alexander, who passed away 11 years, 7 month ago, Elizabeth, who passed away 9 years ago, September 23, 1923.
The moon and stars are shining, Upon their lonely graves; Where sleeps my loving parents, I loved but could not save, Where sleeps my loving river, And have gained the radiant shore; Where no heart with grief can grieve And all parting scenes are oer. By their ELI smLaguer, ETA, By their ELI daughter, G. ELIZABETH WASHINGTON.
WILSON-DRUM-MOND—In loving reverence of my dear mother, Mary, who departed this life four years ago, September 20, 1924.
A wonderful mother, woman and aid.
One who begged, God never made: A wonderful worker, so loyal and
One in a million, that, mother, was you.
Just in your judgement, always right.
Honest and liberal, ever upright;
Loved by your friends and all whom you knew.
Our wonderful mother, that, mother.
By her son, STETSON & WIFE.
WILLIAMS—In sad but, loving remembrance of my dear mother, Virginia, who departed this life two years ago, September 19, 1926.
Dear Mama, If I could measure time,
With heartaches, lonely hours and tears;
Since that sad day of your spirit's flight.
Twelve be a thousand years.
By your lonely daughter, LILIE M. WILLIAMS.

Pies Per Hour Is Housewife's Record baker and so much she failed to take the actual and what is time.
Sixty-Four Pies Per Hour Is Baltimore Housewife's Record
Who is the champion baker and pie maker of Baltimore and what is the record?
Mary Scott. Scott. 420 Druid Hill Avenue, proprietor of Scott's Quick Room, declares that she can make 25 pies in an hour. She recalls having made 30 apple pies in an hour and six minutes for a dinner some years ago, which she believes is a record for most women.
64 Pies Per Hour
With new methods in the baking industry, Samuel Hill, chef of the Attucks Hotel, claims that during a celebration at Goucher College in 1925, he filled, baked and had 64 apples for serving in an an hour and one minute. He goes further with his claim by stating that the following year he filled 16 pies in a little less than 14 minutes.
James Gordon, chef of the Y. M. C. A. Cafeteria, and former baker of the Ideal Pie and Cake Shop, declared that he could bake 40 pies an
so much she failed to take the actual time.
Mrs. Elsie Pitts, 1303 Druid Hill avenue is believed to be the fastest baker by her eight children, who think she can produce 66 pies in the hour limit.
Edward Jones, 1002 Druid Hill avenue, proprietor of Jones' Home Bakery, claims that he could make 60 or more pies or perhaps he could make 70 pies a minute if he tried hard.
During a window demonstration at the same place when he first opened in 1922, he made 76 pies in one hour but then he was a little younger than he is now and did not mind setting a fast pace.
City Ice Cream O. K. Says Officers
"Ice cream sold in Baltimore is absolutely pure," declared Dr. J. H.
Mrs. Annie Hurt stated she believes that she can make fifty pies an hour, judging by the fact that she made 35 peach cakes in 58 minutes while working a a hotel in Atlantic City in 1922 and they are much heavier than plain pies. Never having attempted to make pies faster than necessary, Mrs. Henrietta Moore, proprietor of Moore's Waffle Inn, stated that she honestly believed that she could produce 25 sweet brown apple pies in one hour. Claim to be able to make as many as 40 pies in a day is cool at the University of Maryland, proved that she can make 56 pies in the short time of 58 minutes, having performed that feat in June of this year during graduation exercises. Having overlooked pies on the menu, she was as approaching the menu for the casual banquet when her attention was called to the fact. In just less than an hour, she had her pies ready, and how.
Mrs. Ada Thornton, 810 Fremont avenue, a housewife, lays claim to a prize by declaring that she can produce 50 pies in an hour, the highest number that she has ever made was fifteen but then she was interrupted

City Ice Cream O.K. Says Officers
"Ice cream sold in Baltimore is absolutely pure" declared Dr. J. H. Shrader, Director of Bureau of Chemistry and Food of the Baltimore City Health Department, in a statement given out this week to the newspapers.
The ingredients of this commodity are $12\%$ butterfat, $15\%$ can sugar, $72\%$ $^{1}$ condensed milk and $1\%$ sugar. The national article is added merely to give the cream the desired smoothness, and not as a filler. Thus, according to the doctor, ice cream is a food having all the constituents for body building, but having them in over three times the concentration that they occur in the same amount of milk.
