These states are Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts and New Jersey. They have a total of 44 electoral votes and may determine the Presidential election.

DIAMOND DIRECT FROM IMPORTER THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1928 THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS DEAD --NEVAL THOMAS Party Which Abolished Slavery Silent On Peonage And Segregation NO LIMIT TO THEM BRAZEN EFFONTERY Grandson Of General Grant As Bad As Descendent Of General Lee By NEVAL THOMAS President Washington (D. C.) Branch N. A. A. C. P. WASHINGTON, D. C. — True, The real Republican Party was the greatest political agency in the history of our government, and one of the greatest in the history of the world, but, IT IS DEAD. I refuse to allow a crowd of oppressors who are opposed to everything Republican masquerade in its name. This aggregation now parades its own ideals, everything that Republicanism condemned and destroyed. They are in solemn compact with the Bourbon and wicked schemes against the Negro. The Republican Party destroyed the South. Today the so-called Republican Party is still the Kluwer under the guidance and the Department of Justice, with its industrious feminine Crusade is still. The Republican Parties are still mighty Grant; while this modern aggregation has embraced it, given its enfranchisement, a welcome home, ridden to power through its support. The Republican Party enfranchised the Negro, and made proper use of the newly sending detachments to the polls of the South, rebels from polluting the spats of government; while its illegitimate heir not only smiles at the infamous violation of our Constitution, but refuses to support it, reducing Southern representation and has even given the all-powerful Federal Judiciary to the Southern Court. The Supreme Court Civil Rights Bill, containin' the learning of Charles Sumner, Roscoe Conkling, Benjamin Butler, and Robert Brown Elliott; yet a modern Redeemer has been chosen, this precious sage-guard, and doomed 12 millions of black Americans to insult, and every other kind of obstruction, from their cradles to their Color Caste The Republican party opposed every kind of color caste, while the presidents of the old and the efforts of our ancient enemies For instance. Secretary Work extended segregation to the Pension office where Woodrow Wilson had failed, and the Pension Office sent a committee when we went to judge our protests. In the six heated confrontations the Pension Office vided the Pension Office, making his administration equal to that of the Democrats, but stubbornly, and with a loud voice, refused to yield. The Republican discrimination these modern Republicans have outdone the Democrats. Picture Requirement The president still remains in the Civil Service, and our poor young people who appear for appointments are sent back home by these impostors who claim to love the Constitution, who have our constant appeals are of no avail. There is no limit to the brazen enmity of this modern Republicanism. It will not even defend us from mob law, and America's veneer of civilization from destruction; for it torpedoed the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill with a shameless faroe enacted with the wicked South. Promined Republican leaders like Senator Borah, and the powerful chairman of the judiciary of the Senator opposed it, and the superb manipulator of the Senate made an agreement that discussion cease until after the fall election. The guillible element of Ne-groes under the leadership of Ne-groes who were to be rewarded for misleading, killed in the supply of the party and the in any then hold them that it could do nothing with the Dyer Bill, and that it stood helpless before the groans of black men dying at the stake. Col. Grant 3rd—Segregation Yes, Republicanism is dead. None one in national public life will stand for its noble ideals, or hold any reverence for party traditions. Col. U.S. Grant, 3rd, may as well have come from heathen Mississippi or Georgia, and may as well have descended from Jefferson as far as he was a standard of the nobility and state-craft of his great sire.

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.

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."

"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. In introducing the minister. E. F. Johnson, chairman of the Board of Deacons, stated that among the deacons he knew that the teacher will be help to help the young college students and young people generally in the city, and that he will also be instrumental in gaining improvement for Negroes in the school system, getting for them improved conditions from the controlling whites.

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."

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. From fifteen to twenty-five requests a week for information on economic and sociological subjects were cared for by the department, and officers were clearer to data for data relative to the race and its progress. "Opportunity" 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.

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." "I am a Baptist. My father was a Baptist. In fact all of us are a Baptist. And when you see a Nigger who is anything but a Baptist. It’s because some white man has been tampering "The Southland is the proper home for Niggers' climate and every other thing.

Washington, D. C. AARON P. PRIOLEAU. Dr. Emmett Scott Dd Not Write Article Referred to by B. E. Church, and Says Church Knew It. When requested to comment on Mr. Robert Church's article released to colored newspapers this week. Dr. Emmet J. Scott, a member of the Executive Committee of the voters' Republican National Committee, consented only to say: "What a beautiful thing is a man of straw! with impunity, and with blatant fury. 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 When requested to comment on Mr. Robert Church's article, he wrote: "I am grateful to Emmett J.

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.

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". Because he is desirous to bring men perhaps of "Chappies" class to a high level of human enlightenment and development is no ground to take that the profession- 18.

In reading issue of August 18, I ran across an article entitled "Professional Men Are Stuck-up—They Highly Predate Tell me who is "Chappie"? Anyhow, it goes on to prove how ill informed some people are. This "chap" in making a tide against the death of the president were pitted than censored. It is too bad that he does not know of the sacrifices men who he unjustly assails are making for our racial group. He does not respect self-speaking as well as intelligent is no argument to put forward that he is a "better-than-you" individual. Because he does not care about the sum of the earth is no reason he is a "high-hat." Because he is desirous to bring men perhaps of "Chappies" class to a high level of human enlightenment and development, he must take that the profession-man is "stuck up." Yes, this class of consecrated and efficient public servants has much to endure. Men of "Chappies" kind are always nagging, finding fault, hauling injustice, and causing them in disrepute with the people they so honorably serve. No, we will not descend from our enlightened development of human uplift and racial development. We intend to continue to alleviate the ills and pains of our people.

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- Wm. PICKENS New York City BY ROBERT 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.

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.

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.

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.

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. 1227 S. 17th ST., PHILA., PA.

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. ```markdown ``` SUICIDE MUSICIAN DREAMED IN VAIN OF SUCCES ROOSEVELT Theatre 512 W.

SYMPHONY FOR DETROIT DETROIT. — This city will soon have its first rift: symphony orchestra as enrollment has already begun, according to an announcement of D. Lowyer, of the Lowyer Music Studios. COTTON PICKERS IN N. Y. NEW YORK. — McKinney's Cotton Pickers orchestra is scheduled to be reopened Wednesday night, after having played an engagement in Buffalo. 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.

Supporting Brooks are. Lena Wilson, Hunter and Warfield. St. Clair Dotson and Yvette. Wilbur White and Indie Yvette. Wilbur Kag Hutter and chords of twelve recruited from Chicago and New York. 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, piano and voice; Mrs. Anne Nichols, piano; Mrs. Anna Hazelton Lee, voice and piano; Mrs. Larry Wheatley; piano; Mrs. Larry Diggs, piano; Mrs. Harry Pratt, voice; Miss George Laurie, voice; Sylvester Mason.

With Hubbard is Sammy Lewis, former star and, a Baltimore boy as well, and Lewis' singing of "That's My Mammy" at the Monday matinee had the customers shouting for more. Hubbard in his characterizations was especially good, make-up being so good, the Gingerbread in "London After Night." The producer received much applause for his hit. 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. Emma Simmons, singing and presenting a line of comedy chatter, was well received as he was Essie Bryan at an all-Baltimore chorus, composed of Ethel Smith, Mary Wright, Catherine Scotti, Flora Whiting and Ruth Garrett, completes the persona this vehicle that is Alabama Band's billed for Washington next week.

He ac- companies his master, Leroy Kin- ney, and his friend and stab- mate, Al Dirdon. He trains the grain breed and very intelligent. So interesting is he in what he seems to consider a daily race that when one of the other runners starts to pass Klinney, he promptly gives him a quick jerk usually throwing him headlong and and running his master to reen him lead. The big dog, whose name is Bob, also springs and side-steps around the gymnasium in imitation of the boxers while they are doing their shadow boxing.

ABANDON PLANS FOR SECOND 'SHOW BOAT Thought That Robesons Suspension May Have Prompted Action BLOW TO ACTORS Would Have Given Employment To Many 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.

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. GLENN AND JENKINS NEW YORK. — Glenn and Jenkins, still "working for the railroad" are appearing at the top of the bill at the Metropolitan Theatre, here this week. 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.

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.

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.

It was on this same night that in the same block at 1025, where a white family by the name of Lentz lived, someone hurled amilk bottle through a window striking a six-year-old boy lying in the front.

MORE COLLEGE ENROLLMENT (Continued from Page I.) increase in their productive endowments, indicating the existence of growing concern that the higher must be placed on a permanent basis through the provision of stable annual income. In 1917, the productive endowments of the universities and colleges amounted to $2,250,000 with an annual yield of $361,250. Since then, additions have brought this total up to $20,713,000, the annual yield being $1,071,300. In both endowment and annual yield, therefore, has been approximately 185 per cent. Government Made The Survey The survey of Negro universities and colleges was conducted at the re-creation of 19 States, 79 Negro institutions, the Association of Colleges for Negro Youth, the Phelps-Stokes Fund and the educational boards of the University bodies of all whom cooperated in arranging the study and in furnishing information. Every one of the 79 institutions was by representatives of the Bureau. In addition to a general review of Negro higher education, the report on the status of Negro students in unabridged form with the academic programs, physical plants, graduation requirements, admission requirements, faculty salaries, teaching loads educational and scientific equipment, and other functions of each of the colleges surveyed include: Five in Alabama, 1 in Arkansas, 1 in Delaware, 1 in the District of Columbia, 1 in Kentucky, 1 in tucky, 5 in Louisiana, 2 in Maryland, 5 in Mississippi, 1 in Missouri, 12 in North Carolina, 1 in Oklahoma, 1 in Tennessee, 8 in Carolina, 8 in Tennessee, 8 in Texas, 4 in Virginia, and 1 in West Virginia. 48,000 Teachers 1.050 In Colleges While presenting the exceptional progress accomplished in Negro high schools, the report also calls attention to the fact that the immediate need of the race is more education, better education, and the latest available figures show that there are approximately 48,000 Negro teachers in the United States, including those teaching in elementary schools. Of this number 1,050 are teachers in institutions of higher learning and 46,950 in elementary schools. This result rests on the responsibility of educating 5,000-0,000 Negro youth under the age of 19 years, a task far beyond the capacity of teachers in a number. The lack of teachers is serious. Many Teachers Declared To Be Lacking In Training A considerable proportion of the teachers in Negro schools are also reported as being deficient in proper training. Many have not received more than elementary school preparation while the training of a large number of others has has been limited to one or two years' work in or graduation from high school. A shortage prevails not only in the number of teachers, but also in their quality. The solution of the problem is largely centered in higher education. If more teachers adequately trained and prepared for the overwhelming undertaking of educating 5,000,000 Negro boys and girls are to be provided, the task must be done in the institutions of higher learning. The economic salvation of the Negro is dependent on a great degree upon his training in the fields of agriculture, mechanic arts and crafts. While 1,000,000 Negroes own or operate farms, there are 1,178,000 of the race engaged in ordinary farm labor. The lack of training in mechanic arts and crafts is indicated by the fact that only 56,000 are skilled craftsmen as compared with 1,371,000 of pursuing unskilled occupations. All states have established land-grant colleges offering courses in business, economics, and other economics. In these colleges members of the race may prepare themselves not only to become teachers in these vocations but also to these vocations with all the advantages of superior specialized knowledge and to higher economic levels. The Negro youth of the country must take advantage of these opportunities. Life demands the training of many more Negro professional and technical leaders.

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.

"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 1731-33 Penna.

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.

And affirm to get results, too! This practice dates back to Biblical days, when burning Incesse was believed to have miraculous power for the good. Then the priests, wise men and all burned Incesse with similar faith. The amazing new Incesse known as "Lucky Stars" contains certain things which were used in crude form thousands of years ago. But now it is pressed into odd-shaped Stars, and each one branded with the words "Lucky Star." The odor is wonderful, and they are very useful. Try them yourself, according to directions in each package, and see. Send $1.00 for a full-size box of "Lucky Stars," or 2s for a trial package to-day.

DRUID LAUNDRY 1634 DRUID HILL AVENUE MADISON 1664 ODD FELLOWS DON'T LIKE TO FOLLOW ELKS Younger Order Too Sporty They Find After Chicago Session ALL GENERAL OFFICERS NAMED BY ACCLAM'TION Army Of Organizers To Cover Country For New Members CHICAGO, (A. N. P.) Because Los Angeles is too far away and Winston-Salem, North Carolina, is too far in the South, the delegates to the 24th B. M. C., Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, chose Atlantic City, New Jersey, as the next meeting place of their Biennial Movable Committee. Edward H. Morris, Chicago, was re-elected national grand master, with all the other important national officers. Although there is no official announcement to sustain the report, it has been freely discussed that the choice of the next meeting city and the delegates grew out of certain feelings among a majority of the Odd Fellows in regard to the Elks. It is said that the Odd Fellows have at some times suffered by going into just after the Elks have been there. The declaration is made that there are many young men in the Elk order, sportively inclined, who take a bait by storm and by bait by mind. When the older, more conservative Odd Fellows come along, they catch all the bad feeling which may have been caused by the Elks. So, it was thought that the Elks would be the Atlantic City for next year, whether they go there or not, it would be wise for the Odd Fellows to choose that city for the year after, they being rather sure that the Elks are seashore city two years in succession. Army Of Organizer The other major decision in which the influence of the Elks was seen was to form an army of organizers among the Odd Fellows who are to get under the skins of the Odd Fellows. It is felt by many of the men that they have neglected organization while they want more members, younger members, younger members and enthusiasm. Thus, the spring strings of the lodges will be loosened to provide for men who are to campaign for the new blood. Secretary's Report Grand Secretary James Needham reported 120 new lodges in the past two years, 10 patrarchies, 14 P. G. M. Gorilla, 10 Patrarchies, 140 delegates were registered. Treasurer's Report Grand Treasurer A. T. Shirley reported two years' receipts of $156,222 and balance, $31,218. Thomas M. C. who attended M. C. 50 year ago, was acclaimed by the convention Thursday. 图 VEENON B500 BREATHER PRESSED L.50 PRESSED CLUB AND HAT EXOVATOS B500 Free Call and Delivery LADIES' AND GENTS' GARMENTS LADIES' AND GENTS' GARMENTS Sits Pressed, Hats Cleaned and Beblocked You Walk.

BIRTHS DECREASE AS DEATHS MOUNT Deaths And Fewer Births Comparison Shows More Than Last Year NO SUICIDES Death Rate For Week Ending Sept. 14, Twice White The birth rate shows a decided decrease and the death rate is considerably larger than the same month last year, the monthly mortality, according to the report from the Health Department here. According to the statistics, the birth rate in 1927 per thousand was 27.00 while the rate this year is 25.38. On average, the death rate in 1927 per thousand was 20.49, while this year it was 20.49. Heart Disease A great number of deaths were caused by heart disease, the number for August of 1928 being comparable to that for 1927. Cancer that usually claims a larger number of deaths has dropped several points for this year. Only one point in the difference between the deaths from tuberculosis for August of 1927 and 1928, there being 34 cases in August 1927, and 33 cases this year. There were 32 cases in August 1929, syphilis this year than the corresponding month last year. Accidents Accidents claimed a total of 15 deaths in August this year while there were only 8 in August 1927. There were no suicides last year as over against one this year. Despite the fact that there were any number of the various contagious diseases which caused no deaths, or for which no cases were reported, the death rate for the week ending September 14, is almost twice that of the white. The white rate was 12.68 while that of the colored was 23.61. Thursday the grand parade through several miles of streets and the prize drill in the American Giants' Baseball Park were held.

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." PENN STUDIO By A. B. BUDD eggs!

The appearance of flesh-o and woolly West, the app study, has created as much 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 several girls were ordered to the school by Miss E. LaCoste, less as "indecent." the high school rose in de-cores of them discarded she that they would have a sh- of Education. The State I was going to be a ticklish so- ling the girls and had not might not come to school 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. LEGAL TROUBLES and a crew of assistants p included that there was no l to do was to wear clean or supported, was not spe 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. WHAT DID VENUS DO clad and unclad—er—limbic side which the girls are my stockings," one girl asked, or did she wear garters. She, whom they make us stue 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?" THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1928 "Yes!" chorus the girls.

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. By AUNT PHYLLIS IN CHICAGO IN D. C. quite regularly. to him about it mally engaged. me to go around I am wondering him exclusively much. I have said nothing as we are not for. He does not like for with other men and if I should go with I like him very 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.

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. But that didn't cut any emerg figure with Freeland, whom Consolidated Gas And Elect Interior doorway at New Provident frames are light green and walls ro Bars Arel. ect 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. Hospital. Door se gray. 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. $580 Light. 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. Modern Etiquette Q.

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.

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."

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 ```markdown ``` "There is one you want.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 invitation!

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.
