Caspar Holstein With $50,000 Tied Up For Five Days
HARLEM IN AIR, 50 POLICE SCOUR CITY
Holstein Freed Without $50,000 Ransom Captors Asked
NEW YORK, (Special)
After fifty detectives searched the city and upstate for five days in an attempt to find the supposed retreat to which Casper Holstein, Harlem's 50-year-old "sports monarch," had been whisked by a gang of kidnappers in a $50,000 ransom plot, a voice trembling with apparent emotion was heard over the telephone at the desk in the 135th Street Station Monday.
"I'm Holstein." came the voice, "the band of kidnappers just let me go!" Shortly before midnight Thursday Holstein telephoned wealthy Mrs. Gomez Whitfield, that he was going to see her, and asked her of his limousine in front of her apartment at No. 305 West 145th Street, but she said she never reached the apartment. First news that Holstein was missing, she told Davis Friday evening Edna Davis thirty-five, of No. 87 Lenox Avenue, his friend, who was worried about him, but not until Saturday did they learn that he had been kidnapped. One of these came in telephone calls to men at the Turf Club, demanding ransom money, on Saturday, and news soon came to police that what they thought was merely a missing person case was really a

Our big job has been in the organization of effective leadership among the Negro group and the securing of executive nurses and social workers to labor. We are ordering that the needs of the thousands of suffering be met. The suffering among the people is pious. Mothers separated from children being wrapped in mattresses or blankets and carried from place to place for safety.
Every person was lost in Palm Beach and the surrounding cities, but Oh, the distress among the poor people in the everglades. They were drowned by the hundreds.

The suffering among the people is piteous. Mothers separated from their children—women in childbirth being crudely wrapped in mattresses or covered in clothing from place to place for safety. Very few lives were lost in Palm Beach, and the surrounding cities, but Oh, the distress among them. They were drowned by the hundreds. Great trucks—heaped high with dead bodies—white and black men and women and children, being buried, without any one left to identify them.

In the saving of these lives, he became so exhausted that when he took his life and tried to make it with them, his strength left, and his child was lost. The child was res-

Bloody Red Shirt Revolution Of 1898 Resulted In 700 Deaths
Heflin, Ala. Disfranchiser,
And Scott Also On Same Side:
NEW YORK—Senator Furni-
fold Simmons, who has proclaim-
ed himself a foe of Gov. Alfred
E. Smith and allied himself with
the Heflin, Lily-White Republi-
cans and the Ku Klux Klan, was
a leader in the disfranchisement
of Negroes in North Carolina a
few daceds ago.
The prominent part which he took
in eliminating Negroes from politics
in his state is told by Carter Field.
The New York Herald Tribune of
recent date:
"In 1898 North Carolina was under
the heel of Negro leadership," writes
Mr. Field. "There were Negro policemen.
Negro magistrates, even a Negro
member of the House while a
combination of Republicans and Pop-
lars were in the saddle at the State
Capitol.
"Mr. Simmons took charge. He not
only organized the party, he organized the famous 'Red Shirts'. He frightened the Negroes : 'ay from the oldmen old men of the oldtimers old men of the oldmen, admitting frankly that the motto of the day was 'necessity knows no law'.
700 Killed
"Nor was it entirely a bloodless revolution. Several hundred Negroes in the campaign state was saved from moment on, and Mr. Simmons never relinquished the dominating political position which he had been engaged to assume at that time. "He came to the Senate almost immediately, leading the campaign of 1800 in which new Constitution was written which disfranchised most of the Negroes legally. He has been in the Senate ever

Simmons "Red Shirts" were responsible for chasing John R. Hawkins the purposed candidate for Congress. Senator Hefflin and his crowd are responsible for making it impossible for Dr. Emmett Scott treasurer of Howard to vote while he was Booker T. Washington's Secretary at Tuskegee, Ala.

Rev. A. J. Payne Says Frivolity And Whiskey Are Sapping Health Of Race
There is too much petting and kissing among younger people of the leading or upper classes for the good of the group, declared the Rev. Arthur J. Payne, pastor of Enon Baptist church in his sermon Sunday afternoon at Metropolitan M. E. Church.
The drinking of whiskey and the tendency of educate young men and women to abandon the church and lend their priests' wards, were also scored by the F-* pastor.
Danger Lines
The Rev. Mr. Payne took as his subject "Danger Lines" which he viewed as the intellectual physical and spiritual.
It is becoming alarming, he said, to the observer of everyday life to see how educated and otherwise gentle women are given their energies and interests in material things without giving much thought to the teachings of leadership in the spiritual world, and taking the group they are leading the downward. Speaking of the physical aspects he stated that this same man is set against the physical energy of the race. Too whiskey is eating out the vitals an assistant pastor in New York, he which make him great relief on to preach at least three funerals each week of young men and — — — who had wasted their physical energy. Rapping Sunday sports, he said we are making the Lord's day a weekly holiday instead of rest and spiritual regeneration. Both the young and old are giving exertion and attending base ball games, and entertaining with jazz music.
Then turning to the question
peeting and the quest to reveal
the upper class social groups,
the pastor declared that practically
all of the sufferine and sorrow grow-
ing out of broken treatment of growing
family in rogals of the young.
"I have visited the probation court here every other day and I have convinced that something must be done not only to stem the tide in alleyes and poor sections, but among the upper classes, but if this group is not to deterivate

KLUX SAYS BISHOP
Bishop Reverdy Ransom
CITES CLEVELAND
He Gave More Patronage Than Coolidge, Says Prelate
NOBFOLK, Sept. 26—In addressing one thousand persons at St. John's A. M. E. Church, Bishop Reverdy C. Ramson stated that thousands of Negroes in not only Virginia but the country have turned to turn away from the Republican Party and go over to Governor Smith and the Democratic Party.
Bishop Ransom said the reason was because the National Convention put every Negro leader off the Committee and put what is known as the "Lily-White" Republican convention. "Another reason for the turn in the tide," the Bishop said, "is that Republicans have received as a body the power to elect the publicans cannot make political bedfellows of the black people and the Klan. The black people prefer the Tumman in place of the hood and of the Ku Klux Klan.
"Grover Cleveland of New York. as President of the United States, gave his advice to Gov. in four years than Coolidge has in eight," he related.

Preacher Still Abounds At

DR. BROWN PASTOR
"Christian Not Free To Do As
He Pleases"
RICHMOND, VA.—The Old
Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist church
was filled Sunday mornig with
hundreds of zealous worshippers.
Songs would break forth like
shoers: the rich spirit of the
John Jasper days lingers still.
Rev. A. W. Brown, fresh from a
vacation, spoke with good effect.
"Every minute of his life, Jesus was faced with the cross. Whenever satan temptation came urging Him to escape Jesus placed the cause before Him. No man can become a great leader without the cross before him. No man can become a great leader without the cause before him. "Peter was not thinking of the cause; he was thinking about the cause. To biggest weapon the devil can use is one high up in the church, and it is up to you to keep him from using you. After using you to his satisfaction you in distress laughs at you. "The Christian is not free to do as he pleases. He has a yoke that is easy and his burden is light. "I have caved that as long as I am in Richmond, I'm going to preach the Bible. I never get a shout. I never get my people solve their daily problems."
The Sixth Mt. Zion Church was organized by John Jasper, in a stable, 1867. He died 1901. One of the Rites of the founder, and great preacher is brought out in the way he used a large gift of food and provisions which was made to him by he had thanked to him he had individuals help him deliver the provisions to numbers of the poor and handicapped in the community. The members cherish this gift. A W. Brown succeeded Rev. Payton. He has now served the church five years. In that period work on the old church and a new annex indicating to $69,000 has been done. Over $19,000 remained unpaid. About 700 members have been added to the church in that period. Rev. Mr. Brown is長期侍教. Mr. Columbia, and came to Richmond from the First Baptist Church at Anderson, S.

Mary Terrell, Mary Bethune Modern Heroines

"Don't allow ourselves to be caught up in military machine and be given to powder. Let no steam roller be strong enough to flatten out your intentions and purposes. You women should stand by a wall, left purpose to a wall alone. You should take this stand in church and state.

NEW YORK.—The un-

come more apparent each

A letter from the Klan was recent-

which she was urged to vote against
Governor Smith primarily because of

ATLANTA, S27. %—William
D. Upshaw, anti-Smitn candidate
for Congress, was ov.-whelming-
ly defeated in the primaries here
despite his futile efforts to ma-
lign Governor Smith and Ne-
groes.
During, his campaign there was 2
circulated a fac-simile of the first
page of the Negro World, Marcus
Garvey. which advised Negroes to
yote for Smith in November rather
than Hoover.
At the bottom of the page support
‘ers of Upshaw printed a notice which
read in part:
“wphis 18 a reproduction of the front
page of the Negro World, publish-
ed in New York July 28. 1928, which
plainly ‘shows how Negroes are rally-
ing to the support of Al Smith and
‘Tammany Hail, whose unlimited
sanction is given to racial and social
equality In the public schools | and

Smith, eight vears Governor of New

stop this racial equality; and the rec-
ord shows that Al Smith has ap-

Colored folk cannot serve in the United States Navy but here was one who was the guest of the Commander of a battle cruiser on an ocean voyage. He writes me.
Dr. Lyon writesouvrou on the fourth of April People were expecting us as a cablegram from the State Department had heralded the news of our departure so that when the news his nose around the enthusiastic populace which accolade him on the point and on the beach.
"We reached Monrovia on the fourth of April. People were expecting us as the State Department, and he heralded the new mission so that when the war dog pokes his nose around the cape it was greeted by the loud acclaim of the enthusiastic populace which had gathered on the poles, the citizens, and distinguisher officials assembled at the Government whan and greeted me as I came ashore. The report of the salute to the Liberian army in mingham, response to the Liberian battery and the salute to the American minister on leaving a ship were announcements to the people all up the river that America had come."
"A large crowd of citizens, and distinguished officials assembled at the Government building and greeted me as the Labor Secretary a report of the salute to Liberian flag from the Birmingham residence to the Liberian battery and customary salute to the American minister on leaving a ship were announcements to the people all up the river that America had come."

Mr. Josiah Henry, Baltimore Attorney ordered a dress for his mother at Stewart's Department Store in Baltimore last week.
A clerk informed him that there will be no facilities for trying on dresses until the building is remodeled.
Mr. Henry looked at the dressing rooms being used by others and anounced he'd put off his purchase until there were facilities.
This is the type of jim crow that has become manifest in Baltimore. The AFRO calls attention to it because since its beginning at O'Neal's, Hochschild Kohn's and Hutzler's, it has spread to other department stores like Gutman's, May Company and Stewart's.
Little matter that these stores grew to affluence upon the Negro trade they now turn away. We do not emphasize that, we rather point to the patently organized effort a mong Baltimore's larger department stores not to serve colored folk except in the basement or at the notion counter.
Your trade in gloves, hats, coats, dresses and shoes is not wanted. Should you worry, well let's see.
These same store people got to gether years ago and agreed not to employ Negroes except as porters, or maids, or elevator men.
In other words after having for many years fixed a policy which has restricted you in earning a dollar, these store owners have now come to the point of keeping you from spending a dollar. They're adding a kick in the pants to a slap in the face.
We should worry. We dress well. We can get along just as well in clothes made at home, or sold in smaller stores which want your patronage.
Eventually you'll have to build your own stores. As it is you're a better spender than you are an earner.
Baltimore Department store's policy will aid the mail order business, it will help better stores of New York and Philadelphia, it'll help Baltimore Negroes put money in the bank.
None of these things are as important as this. Note it well. BALTIMORE STORES ARE ORGANIZED AGAINST YOU. They are acting one.
They wouldn't if you would organize and fight back. They wouldn't if you'd learn the name of every department store owner in the city and reefuse to work for him, or deal with him or deal with his friends or his relatives. Mark his family on your black list. Tell everybody you know of his hatred, his prejudice and day or night when you pray, ask God to destroy your enemies.

Defeat Goldsborough
Even if U. S. Senator William Cabell Bruce had not made a record of his service and an AMERICAN would nevertheless favor him for reelection over Mr. Phillips Lee Goldsbourough. We say this today. Mr. Goldsbourough is the States Attorney in Dorchester County, Comptroller of the state treasury, collector of internal revenue, governor from 1912 16, and now for his second time candidate for Mr. W. Ashleie Hawkins recalled last week that when he was governor, the Anne Arundel School term was over. He went on a week's vacation. That may be an overstatement, but the fact remains that Mr. Goldsbourough while in Annapolis avoided many a constructive opportunity to help the people who work in office. Mr. Truly Hatchett, with four others, was the only colored person Mr. Goldsbourough would appoint to the office of fight. Of the 5,000 appointments he has made none has been above the grade of janitor or spit cleaner. Mr. Goldsbourough is the type of politician
Even if U. S. Senator William Cabbell Bruce had not made a record as brilliant and as fine as any candidate in the NCAN would nevertheless favor him for reelection over Mr. Phillips Lee Goldsborough. We say this because we know Mr. Goldsborough, a tough, tough, tough Comptroller of the state treasury, collector of internal revenue, governor, from 1912, 16, and now for his second time candidate for Mr. S.

Mr. Truly Hatchett, with four others, was the only colored person, public, after the hardest kind of fight. Of the 5,000 appointments he has made, none has been above the grade of junior or senior. Mr. Goldsborough is the type of politician who is for Goldsborough, first, last, and always. He is a man of character, self in office that he never finds time to do anything for his colored constituents. He is a man of opportunity and a amenace to the republican party. 'His very name on the ballot is an insult and a challenge to every voter in Maryland, black voters in Maryland, and our of our citizenship should sit in the Senate.

East Baltimore Street Carnival a Disgrace and Without Parallel Among the Heathens.
To the Editor:
The carnival being held in the 700 block North Spring Street (I should say heathen festival) is a disgrace to the intelligence of orphans of Baltimore. Here, undeveloped children of churches不懂孤儿 witnessed Monday evening finds no parallel among the heathens.
I was told the "Rev." Smallwood is the promoter in the interest of orphans, judging the number of orphans he has hosted. If they were not orphans, they should be taken from their parents and placed with an organization that would bring them up as worthwhile citizens. The kind of organization the heathens should be taken from is conducive to good after the orphans, he should seek the help of the Fedration of Baltimore the churches, and not from uncompromisable public at the these dear little lives.
Baltimore schools opened Monday and the ideals set up by the teachers were lost at night to the braying of a comrade in the schooling of a drum. These parts, composed of the orchestra that sat on a lumber wagon, wugreen-ups and children yelled and shook their bodies like wild ones from the jungles for the displorable disgrace. For these children is indefinite. Some organization should come to their rescue. The Reverend may be sincere, but he is not helping our group.

Why I'm For Smith
Bigots, Morons, Prohibitionists, Bourbon, Democrats, Lily Whites and Ku Klux Are For Hoover—All Classes Of Working People Are For Smith

The election of the first victory for the country would be beverage American wine of religious bigotry a beneficiary in the nation would be beverage American wine of religious bigotry a beneficiary in these benefits,ceptions of the nation would be definite exclusion impossible blow to the cause should be achieved substantial contribution For the first time the country of his own ownership and fair earnestly hope and election colored will be found the reason is conscious of American citizen the feels most keen idiots are leading while on the other Democrats and fighting the battle the Nero must lose.
The election of Governor Smith would be a one victory for the cause of tolerance and fair pay for America. The moral tone of the whole nation would be better for such a triumph; and every American who suffers from the effects of religious bigotry and racial hatred would be a beneficiary.
This election could not be denied participation in these benefits, for the quickened ethical perceptions of the nation—of which such a victory would be definite indication—would exclusion imply the realization of voter realizes also that it would be a serious blow to the cause of his race if such a victory should be achieved without his having made a substantial contribution to it.

Incalculable good will come to the Negro in this country, and thus giving his suffrage he is conscious of his duty and obligation as an American citizen. Even in the South, where he feels most keenly the effects of the liberal Democracies are the leading fight of Governor Smith while on the other hand Bourbon Reactionary Democrats and the lily white Republicans are fighting the battle in the candidacy. It is the lily white Democrat in the South to whom the must look for fair play.

The AFRO Which of It Most Hope For You To The Editor
Your intere self has just intended advice acceptance and
The election of Governor Smith would be a fine victory for the cause of tolerance and fair play in America. The moral nation would be beaten such a triumph; and the people who suffers from the effects of religious bigotry and racial hatreds would be a beneficiary.
The Negro could not be denied participation in these benefits for the weakened ethical person in the nation—of which such a victory would be definite indication—would make such exclusion impossible. The colored voters this time. He realizes also his race is serious should be achieved without his having made a substantial contribution to it.
For the first time since his afrenchmenhip, the colored voters in overseeing with an oppor-tence and fair play is essentially his cause. I earnestly hope and fairly believe that at this election colored voters in overseeing this will be found to be the most those Americans are forced to banish forever from this nation religion bigotry and racial hatred.
Incalculable good will come to the Negro in this country if he does, by giving his suffrage to the Democratic candidate, and by abolishing or as an American citizen. Even in the South, where he feels most keenly the effects of racial prejudice, he will vote. He will fight the reading of the fight of Governor Smith, while on the other hand Bourbon Reactionary Democrats and the lily white Republican fighting the liberal Democrat in the South to whom the Negro must look for fair play. This election affords the Negro voter in the North an opportunity to elect a liberal Democrat in the South. It is obvious that if we in the North and West help liberal Democrats in the South must move to elect a liberal Democrat as a result of such action on our part, feel more k indy toward the Negro there.
The intelligent of the Negro problem nationalism in this country in this county in the localities half of the colored people where they are now new conditions, of their suffrage in the never arise in the industrial centers of common cause polio whom we are are identify realize that their the election of Gov sporting his candidacy. If we are to succeed in the work of the working class this good will be by the candidate for the best serve the integ people. As long as the one political advantage if he fire, colored voters Governor Smith if establish the fact have in our right to have in our right constitutional right If we prove at the sessions of the people the Republican pose the respect of the ourselves in a politically.
The intelligent colored American realizes that the Negro problem, so-called, is no longer a national political issue. He knows that colored people in the South are more likely to live in localities where they live. Nearly half of the colored people in the United States now reside north of the Masor region of the South because of problems and conditions. If they make intelligent use of their suffrage in their new homes, there will never arise in the North the problem that confronts them. We must make sure that centers of the North, we must make common cause politics with the workers with whom we are identified with. We must make common cause priority of these workers realize that their interests will be best served by the election of Governor Smith and they are supporting his candidacy. If we are so sure, industrially and economically, we must have the good will of the working classes. We can do much to gain this good will by helping to elect Gov. Smith, the candidate for President, whose election will best serve the interest and welfare of the work-
As long as the Negro vote is the property of one political party he can not use it to his own advantage. If he divides it, it in the coming election, colored voters should give their suffrage to Governor Smith if for no other reason than to establish a Democratic party, we can afford it. The ballot is the most potent weapon we have in our fight for the recognition of our constitutional rights. We must use this weapon. We must use it in the exercise of the power of our ballot and regard it as our own property and not the property of the Republican party, we must use it in the exercise of the power of our ballot and we shall place ourselves in a position of strategic advantage politically.
The election of Governor Smith offers a reasonable hope for the modification of the prohibition laws. It is utterly impossible for an honest, intelligent, well-informed person to be a sincerely advocate it simply do not know the

Before the curse of prohibition was inflicted on this country, Negro workers in the North were becoming more and more dependent on whiskey and gin and drinking instead beer and ale. Prohibition has compelled them to return to the use of whiskey and gin. Hundreds of them are making up of coated whiskey as whiskey and gin are being consumed in Harlem every day. The ravages which such liquors are making upon the health of Harlem can not be estimated. Physicians there observe that certain diseases are rapidly increasing and they assert that the probable effect on the health of the harmless calorie-poison presents a most alarming question. Thousands of sub-normal pension office infants, it is said, will be born as a direct result of the distress.
Before the curse of prohibition was inflicted on this country, Negro workers in the North were becoming more temperate. They were abandoning the use of whiskey and gin and drinking instead beer and ale. Prohibition has compelled them to reconvert to alcohol and gin. In addition, gallons of poisonous alcohols sold as whiskey and gin are consumed in Harlem every day.
The ravages which such liquors are making upon the health and physical well being of individuals are often overlooked.

Ku Klux for Hoover, Says D. C. Reader, Advising Support of Smith.
To the Editor
It is the opinion of this humble member of the race that we will all make a serious mistake if we do not support Governor Smith. Here are some of my reasons:
The Kyle Klux Klan represents the only real enemy in the Negro in the world; that organization is also the enemy of Governor Smith. Focus to help Governor Smith would be to achieve a serious defeat for the Klan. If Governor Smith is the head and would probably go entirely out of business. Virtually, all of the lynchings have been killed in the klan or not. Whether actually in the klan or not. They occur in the klan and Protestant sections of the country, not in the Catholic sections. Remember that all the countries south of the United States of America lynch in those countries. Yet there are millions of Negroes living in those lands.
Just a few years ago, at the time of the bigrow movement, and the trial of the teacher at Dayton, Teen. Mr. Hoover signed a statement expressing his belief in evolution, which is another way of saying he does not believe in the Bible. I feel that this is a Christian country and that it is better to have a God-fearing believer in the Bible at the head of the Government. Governor Smith's mother named him "Emmanuel," meaning with him ever since.
The AFRO Has Long Made Up Its Mind As to Which of the Presidential Candidates Offers Most Hope to the Race. It Hasn't However, Expressed Itself.
The AFRO Your interesting editorial, "Think for Yourself," has just fallen under my eye. Your well-intended advice is difficult, if not impossible, of acceptance and fulfilment.
The issues of the campaign as you have aligned your campaign for favorable and friendly attitudes of the two parties on diverse questions are so nearly even that it would require the wisdom of a Solomon to make the right choice. If you have decided to have decision the unified judgment of the voters nothing, but political confusion would result.
It requires millions of dollars to provide spellbinders, campaign literature and subsided journal and popular judgment to a right decision.
Of all elements of our population, the Negro stands must in need of assistance and wise guidance. This is the chief function of a journal opinion like the AFRO-AMERICAN. But you look as if the journal itself has not made up its mind.
Let me suggest that you follow the rule of the gambling table. "When in doubt, play trumps," which in this case is prohibition.

Again in my recent passage through Cleveland, I learn that a white lady judge there made an infamous attack upon colored womanhood, and there, where whose director holds your name, launched a defense of our womanhood, but you refused saying that it might jeopardize your job. I know such a defense is not possible, such咬terice, and in a reform movement once coundyice, and units one for membership. In the face of all of this you appear on platforms of colored gatherings. Many people are wonderingly appointments to machine favors, when all of the wrongs of the area come from that same machine.

Prepared Letter to Nomines
I am taking the liberty of calling to your attention an occurrence in the Nation's Capital, with the hope that you will express yourself as to this vital principle involved.
On Tuesday, August 21st, about 6:45 p.m., William Jackson, formerly of Asheville, N.C., now employed by Harmony Center, Ninth and Rhode Island avenue, northwest, was standing in the doorway as was accorded by Detective Connors, of the Metropolitan Police Department, with a question to Jackson. Jackson informs the detective that the car was his, showed his operator's permit, and said it was a short distance with him to his home he could show him his receipts for the payment in full for the machine.
Locked Up
Connors refused to do this, saying to him, "You are going to go look up you, which he proceed to do. Shortly thereafter, upon receipt of a telegram from Childress, "William Jackson bought and paid for Hudson Coach," etc., "not wanted here." Jackson was released, without apology, of

As apokemian for the group I detailed the circumstances that turned contemporaneously to Jackson and said among other things, "You're from North Carolina and ought to be the Inspector, but the Inspector thought that the officers should call citizens offensive names. His answer was, "You should I responded "But we don't let you do it." The conference was ended by my order to his police to desist from such practice and his answer dally was—"No."

Rockefeller's Mother Was Foe of Slavery

The significance of Rockefeller Jr's choice of the Dunbar National Bank in the long list of gifts which he has made toward the betterment of Negroes.
Tuskegee, Hampton and Flake have given many million; the Spelman Memorial Negro School in Atlanta, Ga., another benevolency gives a leading clue to Rockefeller Jr's larges.

He will white clergyman for chairman and four or five white girls for ushers.

Mr. Garvey and his wife sat beside the conductor, who spoke each had a complaint to deliver from the black races to the white.

The AFRO has not yet taken sides in the presidential race. It believes
their views on the question of a square deal to the Negro first. To the Editor:
How does the AFRO-AMERIC
political independence go? So far as I can learn from its editorials
it is neither for Smith nor Hoover.
I am for "Al" Smith because he promises to enforce the whole Constitution to the 14th and 15th amendments.)
1. He promises to bring the marines home from Latin America (that is, Mexico). 2. He promises dry law modification. 3. He promises to withdraw (with Amendment violations).
6. The Ku Klux are for Hoover.
7. The Catholics are for Smith. Give me the Catholics every day.
8. Don't forget completely to the lily-whites after he's elected. Why don't you come over on the side? — Smith Bloomfield, Phila.
Races Garbage Carts
Several of my fellow employees where I work have been wondering why the city street cleaning department is partly responsible for it.
Coupled with my dislike of doing things to heaven, I have to heaven ascending stench that comes from the garbage collecting wagon. Mine is a case of either going to heaven or running a cross country race trying to keep ahead of the garbage man. Isn't there any city official that knows some sort of cover for the garbage vehicle? This condition is especially true of northwest Baltimore.
Around Town
The nerve of some men in public positions is suffocating. For example: "Have you any church news of interest this week, Reverend? Well, I am not on it. Go back next Monday, to the Conventin." Our wives must be obeyed at all costs. A dreamy-eyed brother in a drug store: "Ah wants a camphor ball." "Yes, there are — cents a pound." "But al only wants one of 'em." "I wouldn't know what to charge you for one, sir," said the clerk. "The least we could sell would be a quarter pound." "But my wife said to bring her one camphor ball, and that's all ah wants," he persisted.
The latest building material for baskets is made of sized pieces of rusty tin and two wrecked bed springs—in the rear of a big Madison Ave. house.
In a prominent North Baltimore drug store. "Have you any — pills?" "Yes, I just as good." On call I guess I can get the pins in the next block."
Five minutes later, to a drug store loafer, "I tell you, we drugstores have a lot of drugs. I get all the trade that we should have. We race people sure need to learn to stick together."
A new step—the teachers and janitors in one of our largest schools exchanged congratulations in a joint jiggle, just before the schools opened.
An auto full of the big Democratic politicians on its way down Eutaw street.
Our steps were full all summer, but they are empty now. It does not matter if we breezes to get in their dirty work.
This is the season of the year when mothers begin to sew the underwear on baby; it's too cool to take a bath now.
The sidewalks of New York have made me mentions on Riggs Ave. way. You step lightly to avoid twisting your ankle, but just heavy enough to splatter it with muddy water spurs from bottom two locks bricks.
And in South Baltimore too. Rough streets, dirty homes
A cook stove in the front room sends up odors of pork chops and kale. Two strides from the front and your feet are under the table.
South Baltimore is the Mickey McGuire of city districts.
The unexplored territory along South Howard street under the bridge that the Fremont Ave. car line crosses has not yet been penetrated by the Madame Walker and Poro College expeditions.
The ice-breaker "Twory Soap", is hitherto the good progress against heavy odds.
Two public schools are doing their bit to make over this "Mickey McGuire" into a nice boy.
It several churches have so far to reach his smaller streets, the men neither pray nor vote.
DAY BY DAY
BY WILLIAM N. JONES
Prohibition In The South Land
The South is still the land of prohibition, the "today" and the mint julep.
The South is still the land of political and social issues down by the Mason and Jane line, is allied closely with the Negro question, so far as temperance is concerned, is just about as farical and hypocritical as the grand father clause, the grand between prohibition and some other that it is not aimed at the Negro alone, but a large body of 100 per cent Caucasians known as "poor whites.
Anyone who has lived in that neck of woods knows that the southern legislator will celebrate the passage of the drytest dry law with rounds and Jerry and Cocktails. From beginning the law is aimed, not at intemperance, but at Negroes and poor white workers whom, alike, the curbons to keep ground down to hard work. The rich alone may moblie and keep lazy.
Lett the familiar song of the late Bert Williams, they want prohibition down there, "but for somebody else, not me."
But like the disfranchisement mentioned, prohibition has reacted to the benefit of the Negro group. Some states down there, as South Carolina, for instance, have had prohibition f=25 years and during the 1960s, bootlegging were some excellent funerals caused by the poison stuff dispensed. With low wages on oysters and the threat of race money better channels.
More Terrian For Pullman Porters
If the announcement alleged to have been made be" Perry Parker, national welfare Company, that porters and maids will receive a substantial increase in wages and back pay following the coming meeting of the Company Plan. The Sleeping Car Porters might well regard it as more ground won in their fight for decent wages and better working conditions. On other hand the announcement may be a thawing movement on the part of the Puliman Company to weaken further the Brotherhood forces. The Company keeps up the fight, the gains may be made net gams and take them another step towards their objective. There is one aspect of the Puliman company that should interest every working man or woman in this country. It is the first real labor fight the group has ever had and fought out with the help of intelligence and tenacity. It is of course before ideal in this world of exploitation if employers of labor voluntarily gave them the things they earn and had to buy. BUT NEVER, HAS BEEN SO.
There are those, even of our own group, who maintain that the port should be tall well enough to reach the tip and their wages they are, making more than some other rouses. There were those who did not want to be tall and their wages so slaves were well fed and warded for. The argument that they are getting more than they used to get is also fatalious. The condi that did not want to be tall was heaven as compared with the galley slaves of Rome: BUT THAT DID NOT AGRUEAT THAT NEGRO SLAVERY WAS RIGHT. We received a just share of the things his toll produces; until his working conflance and hope as that of any worker in the same system; until there is produced an economic system wherein every one must do honest work for the things he gets done, for things he does honest work, the workers must fight.
And business and professional estates in this fight, for so far as we are concerned, every penny they get must sift in through group workers.
High Finance
And "The Racket"
The kidnapping of Casper Holstein and others brings home how thin a line there now is between right and wrong ways to get money in this world—between finance marketed right and those called crime.
The extreme degradation of crime could not be pictured in a better way than in the deliberate theft of money because those interested in him could did send ransom money. But what has led to this oorv of "racketeering" which produces the kind of men who use torture and machine guns to kill people in the vein of financial corruption running through our economic system which crops out here and there in cancer eruptions and which appeals to the public in a manner that the hording of wrongfully acquired millions appeals to the big moguls of business.
There may be a difference in the way the victim only a gradation of difference between a Teapot Done transaction, a profiteering rent hog, a captain of industry who squeezes the wages of labor, or the man who uses the money.
In America today we glorify the millionaire and make heroes of the men who by hook or crook, can wrench from toiling mankind appropriationate haves of the DERY MAN CAUGHT WITH A MILLION DOLLARS WILL BE SENT TO PRISON.
With our trend towards extravagant luxury and ever increasing tendency to eclipse what others do, we can never wonder no wonder vent deadener and bolder inclined that the criminally inclined in the spoils

AFRICAN PROVERBS THIS WEEK
Would you eat eggs? Then the care of the hen!
Then the other side of the picture is just as interesting—and tragic. If ten men working together make $100 in daylight, then the dollars because of the more astute than the other men, these nine ron must be content with $50 ron by the population, but multiyron by the population, income of all the people in America, and you come to the solution of the problem of extreme poverty and extreme poverty, then some become millions, others must become paupers.
Any economic system of this kind will drive some men and women stronger go to palaces. It will make some men tower of strength while others defend it. It makes some masters of the ticker in the tock exchange, and clever jugglers of public art. It makes others clever racketeers, kidnapping artists and machine gun guns.
After all the game is the same, SOMEBODY OR GET SOAKED
And Race Prejudice
Admission by the manager of Joel Gutman's department store in Baltimore that he has decided to adopt a new policy of customer and the seen concerned action of certain other Baltimore and Washington stores in this direction has been explained in several ways.
An AFRO-AMERICAN reporter that one of the reasons for this price was the attitude of white customer themselves. It is reliable sources that certain white women organizations have let the stores know their attitude in no uncertain manner. And making these suggestions have leaked out that it is not the ignorant, unkempt and homely customers to which they so much object, then thrown away; but it is the intelligent, clean and attractive woman of the group who can pay as whites do. For wares and that has brought about the kick.
You can fixture it out any way you wish, but this writer has always wondered why it was ever necessary for white men or women to resort to tactics of this kind to protect their men or women.
ored women who get their monarchs. In the meantime they make trips to Philadelphia and New York to spend it; while others are still crashing the doors for the management don't mean them. There are, however white stones which countourn treatment and the action of the "whites only" stores serve to emphasize the cowork in the other stores and offer oppoort to conduct folk tales theirs to conduct similar businesses.
How Great's Hoover
Wood offered an amendment to give the Red Cross instead of Hoover to the Republican caucus and 116 Republicans in the House voted for it, including Speaker Longworth. Representative Tilson, now head of the Hoover speakers' committee, met with members of the Senate and Senator Fess of Ohio, who was the Republican keynoteer this year.
Who's Superstitious?

Nigger, the little yapping ternite bit of Edward of Wales,* whined disconsolately by day, all last week at H. R. H.'s bachelor quarters in York House, London, could not quite shake off uneasely aroused by the dog's palpable terror and grief. Suppose, just suppose the little bird had mastered her master would ever return. Absurd—yet Master Wales had set out last week, to tourney a long way away—to South & East Africa. He had been outcast in his serene yellow yacht to meet T. R. H., as their steamer have to in Alexandria. Even distant observers could iscarn His Majesty's obsequious men and women, and constant danger of assassination by patrons of his own rage. More, he is constantly anxious lest such patrons molest or assassinate British ogiicals in Egypt. The protectors of the English princes had been tripped and we-tripped, they were entertained principally upon His Majesty's yacht.

INDIAN DOCTOR ACCIDENTLY DISCOVERS PRODUCT THAT KILLS GERMS THAT CAUSE DANDRUFF AND FALLING HAIR
Records Prove It Will Grow Hair Two Inches Longer In Two Months

Through a remarkable new scientific discovery, it is now possible to stop dandruff and failing hair, and to help your hair grow longer and longer in months. This discovery was purely accidental. Several years ago, in Gold Valley, California, two boys were playing a game of rock battle, and they were hit by a bullet. Dr. J. G. Delano, (The old Indian Medicine Man) was called in to dress the wound and found that the patient was suffering with a fractured skull and concussion. Dr. Delano started in on his new case with a determination to bring about gattisite results, and he was able to treat the patient not only completely cured, but her hair over the bruised spot had grown to such a remarkable degree that it inspired the curiosity of both the doctor and the patient as to what it was that she had been using on her hair during the treatment. Her reply was: that she had only used the medicine prescribed by the doctor.
With the given information, the doctor started straightway into deep research to find connections with the roots of the hair. And after experimenting for 27 months, Dr. Delano announced that he had discovers with certain chemicals, and mixed together with pure coconut oil and pine tar, would produce a healthy, luxurious growth of hair. After finding that the hair was grown in ninety-one out of a hundred cases, Dr. Delano placed his preparation on the market under the name of Dr. Delano Coo-Tar Hair Grower. In the present sale of Dr. Delano's Coo-Tar Hair Grower has been of phenomenal and uninterrupted success. In Dr. Delano's research, he developed a simple infection (Sebum), and that hair roots very seldom die. Remove the infected Sebum and the hair follicle, and then use a moisturizer made hold secure the hair roots live. Dr. Delano is so confident that his Coo-Tar Hair Grower is superior to any other on the market, that he has decided to give a paper to the company who will send in the coupon below.
NOTE: Dr. Delaney's CoCo-Tar Hair Growth is sold in Baltimore by Read Drug Company's 16 Stores. Livingston's Cut Hate Drug Store, and all of its other drug stores in Maryland are Mutt Bros. Co. & James Bailey & Sons. Calvert Drug Co. and the Henry B. Gilpin Co.

Season Prospects
Baltimore's music season for last year is remembered for its small number of worthwhile musical activities. Barring one or two recitals which includes the excellent piano recital by Harry Gill Smith, which concert was made possible through the effort of the Post Office Glee Club the Spring recital given by the World Glee Club, and the tempted to perform a presentation of Mendelssohn "Elijah," but that may be well left unmentioned; Baltimoreans had a very meagre musical menu.
I believe however, that this is a very encouraging and progressive sign. Baltimoreans are tired of spending good money for bad music, believe that for many there are valuable musical return. They will not attend or in any manner what so ever, support musical enterprises which do not represented to be. Fewer and better give promise of being well represented to improve adorn the musical tastes of the community. In the other hand concepts poorly prepared by musicians or singers insufficiently rehearsed, tend to establish false musical stands within the community, and are very detrimental to the growth of our group.
Adolescent Stage
As a racial group, we are in the field of music as we are in many other fields of endeavor, just reaching the adolescent stage of progressive development hence it is encumbrant upon those of us, who by aptitude, opportunity and training can learn or less or less knowledge or the norms of musical achievement set up in our own group to discourage in every way possible visual or group of musical fakrs who the attempt or endeavor of any indictment to launch musical enterprises of mediocre grade, particularly such enterprises, or their chief exploitation of the group and the self-aggrandizement of the director.
Time was when around Baltimore when any one who had taken a few lessons at the piano and in addition that one who had probably appeared locally more than a half-hour on times as a vocal solosist or as a bassist, was considered eligible to conduct any of the standard oratoria. But that time has passed. We hope, forever. With the improvement of the graphaphone, the widely spread use of the radio and the more recent introduction of the Vitaphone (or other vocal instruments) are they are music of the better class sought, or produced and broadcast by the best artists, is making a more universal appeal. The result is as it should be disastrous for immature, unprepared artists. Members of our group will not stir themselves forth to concern with a chanting musical assistance, having their acoustic susceptibilities tortured by hearing good music poorly presented. Just a few years back we almost had what might be termed an epidemic of choral societies; for a while they waged a veritable war with the general public. After a season or two many of groups, on seeing the musical light of day, stopped supporting incompetent musical directors, and began the most faithful members of such to study music seriously. The musical public is now seeing societies. Much yet remains to be done but we are apparently headed toward improvement through study.
Peace Prevails
News thatt here is again peace between the Y. M. C. A. authorities and the powers that be which control the destiny of the people. So surely it is most, gratifying.
Sponsored by the authorities of the Y. M. C. A. and directed by A. Jack Thomas director of the Aeolian Conservatory of Music. Baltimore enjoyed its greatest music festival just a few years ago and was successful one which was held at the Fifth Regiment Armory. The success of that musical triumph was truly overwhelming. It overwhelmed the promoters. It overwhelmed the dove of peace. Truly there was glory and, for all that it now appears, cash enough or not accorded. We were surprised which we do not care to discuss in this column the "Y" authorities and the leaders of the musical end of the affair became estranged. Recently however the disagreeing factions have proverbially kissed and made up. This truly is good news and if A. Jack Thomas his followers really intend to stage something for the benefit of the Y. M. C. A. the writer for one stands ready and willing to help. Musical Baltimore "Let's go the way." A needs our help; but if a musician is to be planned, let it be for the benefit of the "Y" (not other wise).

CHANGE FOR "PORGY"
NEW YORK Edna Thomas re
Concert Violinist
Mr. Harry T. Pratt, recently promoted to the principalship of the Dunbar Junior High School, many years has been at Baltimore's ranking concern. He has always developed a lively interest in the development of musical talent here. Some years ago he headed a free-vice-lin school, which produced some excellent pupils, the best known them being H. Henderson Kerr now a successful business man in the community. With Mrs. Pauline Wharton, who for some time has been a potent factor in the development of music, as teacher, music medal with Mr. Pratt, principal, we may look for something musically artistic being presented by the pupils from the East Baltimore school.

Several hours before Holstein telephoned to the 135th Street station, four white men and a Negro were taken into custody and held as suspects. The press hints at a run feud in the background between white bootleggers and the black underworld grown wealthy through horse race gambling and playing numbers. International news service refers to a hoax involving What. If, an connection Holstein has with the bootleggers is not known. Facing the men arrested for kidnapping, he was quoted as saying "If I could recognize them. I can't."
Holstein is one of the most prominent figures in Harlem. He is worth a half million dollars, largely invested in real estate. When kiddnapped he was sent to the Mint, and Council just put aside $7,000 which was to pay for lumber to be sent for relief of the hurricane stricken islands where he was born. He also had a $500 diamond ring. He was Past President of the Monarch college of Negro Elks and is noted for philanthropies.

"Although I thought it strange," Holstein said. "I readily consented to accompany them. I was told to enter the door, and I and there I found two white women. "They all told me to keep still and no harm would come to me. Then one of the men sat upon my left and stuck my hand in his mouth. He turned the corner and went north along 7th Avenue I knew that something was wrong, and I made a grab for the gun. 'Oh, sit on him,' the women and the men cried at the same moment."

"Bojangles" Flays Whites Who Flashed Money To Insult Girls
THEATRE MANAGER MIMIMIZES TROUBLE
Lew Leslie Says Two Drunks
erty Theatre
NEW YORK.—And still the applause goes on for the stand William "Bojangles" Robinson took when a group of Southern white men attempted to put it over on the performers in "Blackbird's" at the midnight show on the 13th. Knowing the "Bo," we were not surprised, but we are more proud of him than ever.
The following article appeared a week later in Mark Hellinger's "Behind the News." in a local paper and expresses the attitude of White Broadway.
"Bill Robinson is a colored hoofer. More than that he is probably the finest tap dancer, white or colored, in the whole wide world. His respect and high respect from the stage. He has never to my knowledge, refused to play a benefit—regardless of whether the beneficiary was white or black. But if it may be that you have heard bits of this little story before. Smatterings of it have been printed during the week and Harry Hershfield touched upon it in the last past month. But far as I know, the entire thing has never been told.

Then they tried a bit more. One chap rose from his seat unsteady and waved a $10 bill at the chorus.
"Get hot it colored gals," he howled. "This is the game we meet in the show. Don't kill ourselves in the rush. Ha. ha!"
The rest of the "gentlemen" laughed long and loud at the poor fool's remarks. The house was packed and here and there were cries of "Shame and there were no cries." ***Shame and there were no cries.***
But no one did anything. Finally it came time for Bill Robinson's number. As he stepped upon the stare the "gentlemen" immediately made him their target. Boo and indicate razzerberry "greeted American boys." Robinson stepped to the footlights. "Keep playing, boys," he said softly. The music went on. Bill Robin-

"What you men have done tonight," he murmured. "is a disgrace to your race down there. You. And you. And you."

"If I stepped down the street," he continued "entered the New Amster dam theatre and waved a bill before a chorus girl. I be dmobbed. If I did a thing like that I'd deserve whatever punishment I received.

"For thirty-long years I've been dancing and trying to entertain anyone to the best of my ability. The best night has never been done before. I consider you—and you—and you—the lowest men I have ever played before."
The audience went wild for five solid minutes they applauded. One by one the "gentlemen" reached for their hats and disappeared into the night.
But according to Lew Leslie's story to the representative of the Associated Negro Press, the trouble was not as great as it was said to be. He
Manager Explains
"There was some little trouble when two drunks got a little noisy, but they were quickly and quietly ejected from the Liberty Theatre without annoyance to any of the patrons of the show. This is likely to occur in any house, but the statement that Miss Hall or any other cleried girl in the show was insulted is absurd. We take every precaution to protect them and they must conform to certain fules before they can remain cleried. This statement set at rest anything which had been said formerly. "Blackbirds" is one of the big hits of the season here, playing to crowded houses every performance, crossing a business of $26.00 weekly. The music of the show is being performed as on the various records and piano player rolls. Miss Wards song. "I Can't Give You Anything But Love, Baby" being the season's biggest seller.
The addition of Johnny Hudgins to the east has added much and his popularity seems to be on the increase.
The show will close in New York sometime during October 2015. Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Boston Chicago being included in the itinerary.

"RAMONA" AT REGENT FOR 4-DAY SHOWING
Dolores Del Rio Starred In Romantic Spanish - Indian Love Story
"Burning Daylight" To Show Friday And Saturday
A daring romance, laid in the early days of California under the colorful regime of the Spanish Dons, when the Missions were in flower, and before the pioneer redemption and Spaniards were driven from their landed kingdoms by invading whites—that is the background of "Ramona" who Rois great picture that comes to the legend, Theatre for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
Dolores Del Rio, who makes her debut with United Artists in this production, is cast in the role of a halfbree girl and the story, taken from Helen Hune Jackson's love story, "The Great Greed and the passion of an Indian lover for Ramona." Warner Baxter, the leading man, plays the role of Allesandro, the romantic Indian lover, while the part of Relipe, a rich young Spaniard, also in love with Ramona. is played by Roland a young New York newspaper reporter, chosen especially for the part.
Miss Del Rio in some parts of the picture surpasses even the great emotional heights she attained in "Resurrection," the great Tolstoy drama of Russian life. As Ramona she runs the entire game of human existence, the chameleon changes colors and her deeper, finer nuances of pathos and tragic suffering marking her as an artist who "feels" the part. Scenic views in the film are said to be especially good, one 65 miles north of the city, the picture "shot on record, being taken from the summits of the Cedar Brooks in Southern Utah from a height of 10,000 feet, showing in the distance the peaks and palisades of Zion National Park.

This First National production is the screen version of Jack London's dramatic and spectacular novel of Alaska.

Doris Kenyon heads the large supporting cast.

Gets Discouraged
It is right at this point often that he gets discouraged and decides to go back home and push his plow again.
Now the only thing wrong with him is that he doesn't have the right stance on his own abilities. He doesn't either allow the benefit of the doubt, "Bert" continued. "He has brains too."
"I'll admit," she proceeded smilingly, "that I thought er-r well. I thought I was pretty good—at least until I heard some other ambitious songster exhibit their art. I worked hard, I worked hard, I had the goods in me, but just needed touching up here and there.
Keen Competition
The keen competition offered in New York has been the making of many a man, continued our singer, but there are many who do not want to make the necessary sacrilege contract rise. Unless she gets a fair face, some refuse to practice regularly, the necessary requisite to success for anyone, no matter in what field they are struggling."
Mrs. Powell was formerly with the Original Dixie Jubilee Singers and 7-'11". She also traveled over Keith Circuit for several years. She is the co-founder of the broadcasting stations in New York city. She is recuperating at her home 1510 McCulloh St., after having undergone an operation at Johns Hopkins Hospital.

NEW YORK—From the present indications of shows that will have race actors in their casts this year, employment for Negro performers will reach a high peak. These two outstanding hits will this season.
Employment in New York, this early in the season, is good and while burlesque is off race shows vaudeville is giving more and more attention to acts and "producer" turns. Eubie Blake's "Shuffle Along," Jr. is making quite a stir on the big time and the usual number of acts are finding employment prosperous on the larger circuits.

Theatrical Circus are expected to take care of a large number of performers, and already numbers of them are flocking New York to have the bookers look them over. As it appears now the coming season will be the best in many years, being after a sumptuous show which the lot of the large majority of race actors was anything but an easy on.

NEW YORK—When "Voodoo,"
the first race opera to be offered

Lawrence Freeman, and present-

Reviewed in the "Billboard" the author's attempts are spoken of in a very complimentary manner. Of the opera, this publication says: "Voodoo is the first American opera composed, produced and sung by Negroes. Despite heartbreaking handicaps due to obvious production limitations, apparently caused by lack of funds, Voodoo is a most encouraging sign that the Negro is capable of entering the operatic field and of contributing valuable material and talent to it. This work, however, serves more as a shadow cast before future developments than the realization of a direct production, in its present state it cannot rank with the best in
Last Act Best
Freeman, the composer, is not completely original in his composition. He has leaned on several sharpy defined phases in several music. Negro musicians serve as the basis much of its score, as the spirituals, and Tin Pan Alley also shows a slight imprint. The result is that the production gives authenticity and that it depends too much on outside information to complete itself. The last act is unquestionably the finest and here there are touches of inspired creative powers.
Plot Complicated
The theme is appropriate for this first Negro opera. It is based on the mystical and superstitious 'Voodoo,' a sort of curse. Composed by composer and lyrics are generally good, but at times become a rarer lavish.
Singing Excellent
There are some excellent voices. Outstanding among these is that of Doris Trottman, a rich, pure soprano rests in her high notes, weakness in her high notes, Holland register as and William Holland register as a basso. Others who are satisfactory are Thomas R. Hall, Ray Hall, Valdo Freeman, the producer; Marie Wooden, Joseph Northern and Rossette Jones. There is 12 pieces on the orchestra and 21 pieces, with the composer conductor, is good. The creating cast includes Rossetta Jones, Cordella Paterson, Luther Laonton, Blanche Smith, John H. Hekles, Leo C. Evans and David Bryant. Among those composers with the executive staff are Robert Eichler, William, Esther Thompson, Octavia Smith, Grace Abrams and Walter Matthus'.

NEW VORK, N. Y., (A. N. P.)—This town was started Wednesday to learn that its favorite, Eilat Waters, appeared in the Federal Court here and applied for an application for voluntary bankruptcy status. Liabilities amounted to $40, her assets, $40, the total amount of the lawsuit session at that time.
Miss Waters declared that most of the debts were incurred by John and Earl Dancer in connection with the war, which she was paid on four throughout the country.
First, there was "Miss Calico," which ended disastrously, then there was "Africana," which enjoyed a partial success on Broadway. During the run of this show, there was considerable talk about chorus. When the show not getting their pay. This, they believed, made the manner in which the Deer and Waters show, conducted business, the amount of this money, according to Mis Waters, was due theatrical customers, and affiliated organizations.
curricular Miss Waters' last appearance here was at the Palace Theatre, where her popularity is never missing. The show was at the Lafayette Center, packed and produced by the Dancers.
The arrangement between Miss Waters and the Dancers has been abrogated and the premier singing condirence contract is now up for grabs. It is said that this action on Miss Waters part is the forerunner of a big contract which will really place Miss Waters in the front ranks as a real star.
"PLAYMATES"
Judging from the thunderous reception accorded Buster Lee's company of the above name, patrons of the pennsylvania avenue house wouldn't object to the "Playmates" becoming a permanent part of the neighborhood.
Certainly they are good company, and they are reasons enough for this. Lee, owner of the bunch, and seen in character parts during the show, has assembled one of the hardest working organizations that local theatre-goers have seen lately. Deviating from established first, the chorus, rather easy upon the optics, and working like demons all the time they are on the stage. These prancing girls include Geneva Pichon, Edna Briscoe, Laura Smith, Hattle Jones, Luclie Harris, Irs Briggs, Gertrude Smith, Florence Forsdor and Beatrie Williams. What dancing they don't do isn't being
And why shouldn't they dance with the "Playmates" band just oozing tanalizing melodies. The band, playing on the stage during the entire show, is composed of Otis Johnson, pianist and director: Henry Penn, banjo; Archede Bentz, Pierrot Henri Bentz; Edward Le Board, trombone, and James Smith, drums. Jones set the house wild with his wetrd coaxing of base notes from the uprights, using only the index finger of his left hand. He's an Oklahoma boy and he's wild. Then there's William Harleston, blackface coaxing of base notes, who keep the house in convulsions with their characterizations. LaJole's parody on "Blue Heaven," and his presentation of "Cohen Owes Me $97" and "Rover had the patrons demanding duplicates. James Langston, dancer, twisted into all kinds of shapes, to a male舞蹈队, making under cork, was well received.
Laura Smith and Hattie Jones wowed 'em in a duo dance and the Jones girl prowled the audience of smut, snappy costumes, well staged dance numbers and hot music, these combine to make "Playmates" seem like home folks. The show goes into hiding—with the Gayet as half of a black-white revue.

WHITE STORE ADMITS
JIM CROW POLICIES
Stewart and Company Insult Attorney Josiah Henry and Mother.
Wiping away any trace of doubt as to their attitude toward the treatment of race customers in his company Stewart & Company, white, Lexington street department store, in a letter to Josiah F. Henry, local attorney, made it plain that they intend to continue a Jim-Crow policy now in force.
Invited Him To Buy
Correspondence on this matter was occasioned when Mr. Henry, in company with his mother, went to the white store (with which he had a charge account) and made a purchase of several dresses. Three days prior to visiting Stewart's he had received a letter inviting him to make a greater use of his account.
When the dresses had been selected, Mr. Henry's mother asked to try them on, only to be told by the saleswoman that this would be impossible due to certain repairs being made to the building, although at the same time, and in the same vicinity, customers were trying to dress. Sensing the frustration the local police and his mother left the store without making any purchases. The policy of the store was made even more specific, when M. C. Harris, credit manager, answered a letter written by Mr. Henry in which the latter asked a specific statement on whether or not discrimination on account of color "is now or never to be the police store." The following paragraphs from the manager's reply, gives the policy of the store.
Say Whites Complaint
"As practically our entire business comes from customer that we are white, and understand that we should cater to trade of that class and endeavor to employ sales people who have had experience with and are most successful in handling such customers. Under these conditions, discrimination against colored trade will probably result. So the probability is increased. For the reason that we have frequent complaints in the part of white customers who may be in the apparel departments and who come in contact with individuals who are colored, either in fitting rooms or examining merchandise.
Preferences To Continue
"While without prejudices in the matter under the circumstances we are not in position to assure you that such cases as you complain of, will not occur again."

against race patterns in downtown

Recalls Measure It was the recall of this measure that City Councilman Robert Burlington Monday, in the City Council. McGuinn's motion was vigorously opposed by Philander Brisco who sponsored the original bill. Finally debate took place at the end of which the McGuinn motion carried by eleven to seven. In a statement to the AFO-AERENICAN, Councilman McGuinn said.
"I can see no good season why the property owners are assessed for benefits of this improvement, when by no stretch of the mind any benefit is attached to them." It is predicted that the plaza ordinance will either be amended or repealed.

M GUINN MOVES TO
END PLAZA FIGHT
By a vote of 11 out of 11, the City Council passed a motion offered by Warner T. McGuinn to retaliate the Fifth Regiment Army Plaza for the Board of Estimates. The action of the Council is the beginning of the end of a hesitations by the borough to McGuinn the plaza movement in the interest of property holders who live in that area from the west side of Maryland avenue to the south side of McGuinn from the south side of McMechen street to the north side of Biddle street, many of whom he claims, benefited from the movement but will be assessed to meet the costs.
Began 1927
In 1927, an ordinance passed the City Council and was approved by Mayor Jacob Foltman. Foltman added Dolphin street. This ordinance, known as the Fifth Regiment Armory plaza measure, was to cost around $300,000 out in the measure, the State Legislature was to appropriate $130,000 provided Baltimore City would appropriate a benefit. The objectionable features of the plan developed when it was learned that property adjacent to the plaza was to be assessed as a benefit. Made Investigation In February of this year, Councilman McGunn made an investigation Commission Opening Streets to ascertain what properties would be assessed for benefit. In his surprise a map was exhibited showing that about 2,000 parcels of property covering the area cited above was included among those Women Weak Tired.

The West system, not a duplication of the Washington and Jefferson system, which he learned as a backfield star. He will make a combination of Washington and Jefferson, and by Glenn Warner at Leland Stanford. Into this combination he plans to make use of certain styles of play employed by Pittsburgh. Laffayette informa.
West has made a study of the strong points in the various systems against which he played as a member of the Washington and Jefferson Overseas Command in planning the system which will be used at Howard this year.

Candidates for the team include Jack Bord, Jones, Sales, Hammond, Ben Brown, Haves and Drew, Mar-

All-American Expected
Russ, the Sam Huston full-back, who made All-American history, is expected. The bears next to him and with him back Coach Taylor's backfield worries will be greatly lessened. Russ is a powerful man and knows the football game. He should prove a valuable cog in the Methodist machine. "Babe Jones is trying out for end and well as all other players," Cutie Brown has been showing up particularly well in the backfield.
Veney and Monroe Lyon are set on clinching regular berths as guards, while Jim Williams, Jefferson, H. Butler, and Black are the likely candidates for the tackle position. newcomer, Purnell, who was half back at the game, is trying with Lawless for the snapper-back post. Purnell is said to have shown up well in practice.

THE PASSING REVIEW
Bv BILL GIBSON
HARD LUCK 'UNCLE BEN', but you can't win all of the time. Of course we're speaking of the Black Sox team's three losses to the Homestead Grays in Pittsburgh. With Yokely pitching the boys were all set for a killing but when the North Carolina boy had to be taken out because of the return of an old injury, and the Posseymen nosed out the dark hosed boys, 8-7, the entire foundation seemed to be swept from under them and the two games Saturday were lost by 8-1 and 9-4 scores, neither "Bun Hayes nor Bob McClure being able to stop the charging mountaineers. Being at home or away from home does make a difference with some clubs and the Black Sox are no exception. When the Grays were here, particularly in the first game, they showed up like any ordinary bunch of baseball players, their actions being strongly similar to those of first rate sand lotters. In the second game, however, they hit their stride, and from then on it was too bad for the local boys. Dihigo, Beckwitt, and Jelly Gardner looked like a trio of lemen in the first encounter, but in the second—well, you've read the sad news.
In Pittsburgh the Black Sox flopped. No alibis. They flopped. We don't know about the umpiring, but we have no reason to believe that it was anything but good. Now to juggle a few figures, numbers et cetera, not that that may have been a series with Hilldale the Homestead Grays lost three games and won no one. In their series with Homestead the Black Sox won one game and lost four. The Daisies average with the Poseymen is 750 while that of the Black Sox with the same team is 200—a difference of a mere 550. On the other hand, in the recent Hilldale-Black Sox series the Boldenmen are credited with winning 6 games and losing four. It must be explained, however, that the remaining two games of the twelve-game series were not played. The Labor Day. As the range of these figures the Sox would theoretically go in third position in the rating of these three teams with Hilldale in first place and the Grays in second.
According to Manager Taylor the Sox pitchers went bad and as the hurling may be counted practically 75% of the battle the Sox were forced to take low. Yokely's illness, plus some costly errors on the part of some of the Spoiled defeat. The first game of the eight innings long and found the Sox with 10 hits and the Grays with 12 anything in the world or to disprove anything. Theoretically, maybe all right, but in actual practice are the Grays and Hilldale that much better than the Black Sox? We present the case to you. Judge for yourself.
G
BETTER WATCH THE WATCHES gentlemen of the squared circle when keeping time on the rounds.
It was our pleasure to attend a fight recently at which an assistant of ours held a perfectly good stop watch and in several instances he found a variation in the length of the rounds, variations of from 6 to 35 seconds. Whether excitement in watching the fight (an unpardonable sin) or any voluntary attempt to make a difference in the length of the rounds caused the difference does not matter. The final result is the same. When rounds are cut when a certain boxer is winning and prolonged when he is getting the worst of a deal there is always room for an argument. We are not of the argumentative type (we've learned our lesson) but only mention this because we know that there were other people present that noticed the same thing.
THIS THING HAS HAPPENED BEFORE. It is nothing new here. So to avoid it we suggest that the timekeepers keep their attention on their watches or if the watches are ought of order get them fixed or get new ones.
A NICE CROP, SAY WE of pugilistic aspirants coming along in the bantam, lightweight and wetterweight classes. In addition we Young Jack Thompson the J.K. Grundschule as Kid Chocolate, Baby Joe Gans and the New York town.
The boys in the heavier weights are being crowded into the background by these fistic warriors who are garnering kale and loads of publicity in the metropolitan press by their ring activities.
And mind you there are some coming boys right here breathe your nose. Neal Saunders, Lefty Cooper, young Sam Landeau, young Harry Landeau and others are entering the ring as it should be and are meeting with much success. A break away from home, and you may be reading about some of them in the Big Papers." We're going to give you a few sidelights on these boys from time to time. That's a promise.
GLAD TO MITT the Young brothers, hustling scribblers from the Chesapeake littoral, who stopped by the desk to say howdy, on their way to Columbus, Ohio, where they re-enter Ohio State University. Both are studying journalism and writing sports as you probably have been reading. Bernard ("Barney") is a senior, Tom a junior. Luck to vuh, boys!

Thel ocaals were bolstered by the Warfield of the Hildale club and addition of "Bizz" Mackey and Frank Dick Lundy, stellar short fielder of the be toying with the opposition in the first encounter and with Bill Force hurling shutout ball in the nightcaps, rumped away to a pair of victories that showed the challengers that they were just a bit out of their class. Heavy Slugging. The first hit was hitting affair, the Taylormen nicking three Hampden pitchers for a total of 15 hits while Yokeley was giving up a half score to the invaders, tightening up, however, when a crisis was impinging. The Sox counted three runs first and three in the second innings.
Dixon's Stickhood
Dixon led at the stick for the Taylormen, getting a home run and two Washington also registered a trio of singles while Wilson Mackey and safeties, Yokley again came through with a two-bagger. In the second round of the tournament his game Force was never in danger in six innings while his mates were rapping Russell for six which they converted into a snarler of runs, Lundys performance was excellent. Force were features for the Sox, while Latin played well for the opposition.

On the campus...in fraternity houses...at the "Bowl" you see them. Brogues as Scottish as a Highlander's kilt! Swank and swagger in every line of them. Husky good looks in every stitch. No wonder Yale goes in for the "wing tip" oxford. No wonder collegiate style observers say it's Yale's biggest selling style.
Now Newark has brought you this popular Yale Model . . . but
priced as only Newark can price it. $4.00! Because Newark
sells direct to you from Newark factories through Newark
stores . . . eliminating middlemen and outside dealers . . .
charging one small profit instead of the usual three!

"I drive a car for hire," says Mr. Ike Sabel, of Gadsden, Ala., "and have to get up and go, early and late. Consequently I can't have regular hours for eating and sleeping. I occasionally have indigestion and find it necessary to take a laxative. I had heard of Thedford's BLACK-DRAUGHT Purely Vegetable
for a long time. The drug-
gist told me Black-Draught
would help me. I bought a
package and had it made in-
to tea and take it any time I
feel the need of a laxative.
It always helps me. I have
much better appetite after I
take Black-Draught. I can eat
about everything I want and
feel full of pep. I would not
be without it for double the
price."
Black-Draught can be taken
dry or made into a tea, as you
prefer. Either way, it costs
only one cent a dose.

How Weak Nervous Women Grow Stronger
Feel Better, Look Younger and Have Steadier Nerves
If you only knew—you rundown, anemic women—who are dragging yourself around on your "nerve" what a wonderful increase in strength and health Tanlac will give you, you wouldn't hesitate a moment about going to your druggist and getting a bottle of this solnid medicine. Mrs. F. C. Martin, of 1907 Frederick Ave., Baltimore, Md., says: "I suffered from chronic nervous and stomach trouble and had just about lost hope of getting well. But here I am today—a whole year since taking Tanlac—celing stronger and younger than in cancer. Tanlac is as free from harmful drugs as the water you drink—only Nature's own medicinal herbs. Druggists know this and for the past 10 years have recommended it to men and women who need a quick "pick up" that will put them on their feet and give them a new interest in life. So confident are the makers of Tanlac that if you are not helped by it, you get your money back on request.

"The knowledge of the semaphore code and first aid qualifications is more essential than a year's course in latin or any foreign language" declared Deputy Commissioner Beecham of New York Boy Scout Headquarters, in his address to the Baltimore City Boy Scout conclave at Sharp street community House, Sunday afternoon. With clean living faith and courage and study it has been proven that scout craft is equivalent to a high school course. That is provided by the Baltimore City scout he continued. There is nothing more bearing on any body's life than the type of arts and workmanship that is provided by the scout he continued. There will be a day when a boy who is not a scout and does not conduct himself as one shall be issued a scout badge and meeting of Baltimore Scout Battalion was the assembling of Sharp Street Community house troop, known as Baltimore's Model troop, to characterize the character under the directions of Commissioner Beecham and Deputy Scout Commissioner of Maryland Maurice Moss, of the Urban League. This character is to be registered in three or four weeks.

CHICAGO—When classes were dismissed at the Fenger High School 11220 South Wallace street Sunday, all but 25 of the 200 white students who had struck earlier in the day had returned to school according to Principal Thomas C.

Principal Hill intimates that those who do not return to their classes on Monday morning may be disciplined.

Superintendent William J. Bogan stated yesterday that the transfer of 800 students was "perfectly regular" and added that they would be allowed to remain at Fenger.
Police Quell Demonstration

Bronze casket of the highest priced type known to casket workers.
ANCIENTS REQUIRED 70 DAYS MODERN EMBALMERS FEW HRS.
Old Time Undertaker Has Given Away To Modern Professional Funeral Director With Thousands Of Dollars Invested In Funeral Parlors And Limousines.
Cheapest funeral known cost $54—Most exclusive casket $10,000 says Walter W. H. Casselle Sr., (Phila.) who has $65,000 establishment.
A. D. Price, Richmond has $50,000 invested in hearses and limousines alone. This business has been handed down from father to son.
D. T. Howard, Atlanta, said to have earned $500,-000 in business.
Baltimore has in Mrs. Robt. Elliott and Mrs. Geo. Holland, two women funeral directors.
Modern funeral directors who embalm a body within a few hours have it on the ancient Egyptians who required 70 days for that purpose.
Here's what Egyptians did—They removed brains, drew intestines thru an incision on the left side. The abdomen was cleansed with palm wine and filled with myrrh cassia, and other materials and the opening sewed up.
This done the body was steeped for 70 days in a salt solution and afterwards swathed in gummed bandages.
Modern Embalmers
Modern embalmers remove nothing from the body except blood which is drawn off by a pump and a formaldehyde solution pumped in its place. An incision for this purpose is made under one of the arms and an artery taken out. The abdomen and the entire circulation system are filled with embalming fluid, which sets like the white of an egg, eventually making the body as hard as stone.
Last 50 Years
Egyptian mummies lasted for 2,500 years, but the individuals are unrecognizable.
Walter W. H. Casselle, Philadelphia's leading funeral director estimates that today an embalmed body can be viewed by relatives without horror for 120 days and when buried in a metallic casket will last without decomposition for 50 years.
A body was disinterred in Washington, D. C., recently, after three year's burial in a metallic casket. It was in perfect condition except for a slight mold on the face due to dampness.
What Undertakers Do
According to Mr. Casselle, the modern funeral director is expected to advise his client the best possible location of the house to place the remains of their departed, look after the soiled bed linen and other waste matters left in the death chamber and have with him his competent assistant to properly disinfect and remove all danger of infection to the surviving family. Then arrange in detail every item and important part of the funeral arrangements, always advising and preventing exhortant funerals in cases where the families are unable to have them, thus avoiding a large unpaid bill and a humiliated client.
He is also looked upon and expected to give legal advice, especially where there is a will and letters of administration to be granted to the next nearest of kin. The funeral director must be able to prove to the public that the body in question is actually dead in the absence of the physician, and be able to conduct the committing service in the absence of an ordained minister.
Started As Elevator Boy
Mr. Casselle is the type of funeral director who has grown with his profession. Twenty-four years ago, he left an
elevator and began business with $15. Today he employs 11 persons, has a $65,000 building at 913-15-17 S. 17th street, Philadelphia, and has buried 9,962 persons. His slogan is "Love the vocation you pick out and then stick to it and make it succeed. Don't see failure but push forward! Make every day your best day."
Hemsley Talks
Egyptians could tach us something about embalming, Samuel T. Hemsley admits, "I have known bodies buried on damp ground to become petrified and continue indefinitely in perfect state." Johns Hopkins Hospital, he said, pickles bodies of certain special cases covers them with grease and wraps them together in bandages after which they are placed in cold storage and are shipped to various medical centres. This type of embalming is good for two years.
Hair Growth
Hair continues to grow after death, Mr. Hemsley admitted. He said he knew of no case where a coffin was opened six months after death and the beard of the deceased had grown six inches.
What Neat Men Do For Their Necks
What Neat Men Do For Their Necks
A giraffe is not responsible for the appearance of its neck, but a man is responsible for the appearance of his. Are you satisfied with yours? You may blame your suit upon your tailor and your hat upon the strange whimsies of modern hatmakers, but your neckwear is your own doing, and you cannot escape the consequences of your own choice. The most conspicuous detail of a man's apparel, it expresses his personality as clearly as his classipin proclaims his college. At least, such is the prevailing notion, although some men are doubtless rated higher than they deserve by the impeccability of their collars and ties.
A neat neck is not as easy to achieve with a soft collar as with the stiff variety, but many men are able to get the same trim effect by having their soft collars starched and clamming or pinning the points securely in place with an attractive collar clasp or pin. A collar pin or clasp of fine gold, set with a colored stone, either in the center or at each
end, is the type now favored by the well-dressed man, and the clasp is generally preferred to the pin since it leaves no pinholes in the collar.

Are you in love? Have you any heart problems? Ask Aunt Phyllis, care of the AFRO. She will help you solve them.
In this week's mail I received a letter from one who not only appeals to me for advise but to the public for relief in a difficult situation. He says in part:
"Dear Aunt Phyllis:
"I am more than lonely. I have no friends to turn to. I am serving a sentence for aggravating assault and battery which does not expire until the fall of 1929. I want you to help me by giving my name and address to some one who would not mind bringing a little sunshine into the life of one who is overshadowed with doubt.
"I am a man 33 years of age, height, 5 feet 7 1-4 inches; weight, 165 lbs. color, brown."
"If there is some young lady who has drunk the bitter cup of failure, misery and despair and has learned from sad experience that a deceitful life does not pay, we could exchange views and opinions. There will be no obligation in any form or fashion.
"If you know of any charitable organization that will aid me by supplying me with reading material, especially pertaining to the progress of my people and mechanics I would appreciate."
Johnnie Morgan
P. O. Box 131
Ebensberg, Pa.
Johnnie is not appealing to me alone, but to the readers of this column for sympathy in his loneliness. However, I want to say a word to him and to all the others like him, despairing because of failure. To such I would say take out the word "failure" from your vocabulary. Forget it. Success or failure is or.iv relative at best, and moreover, it is not for the individual to say when his life is a failure, for that is not known until the end. Put your present condition down as the result of a mistake, costly as all mistakes are, then set to work to make the most of the rest of life. As there is life living you know—
Your sentence has given you time to reflect. You should consider the mistake that led to you present discomfort as an illness from which you are slowly recovering, and from which you plan for the rest of your life to be immune. Begin to make plans now for a life so full of work, health and love when you are free that there will be no more room for further mistakes. I do hope that the readers will write to and encourage you.
Babies Grow Up In The Summer Time
Babies Grow Up In The Summer Time
The growth of a boy or girl from babyhood makes an interesting study for one who is willing to keep an accurate record of sizes, weights and heights.
During the first year the average baby grows about nine inches. If this rate were kept up for ten years, the schoolboy of ten would be over eight feet tall, and a giant in the making.
During the second year, however, baby grows only three or four inches, and gradually decreases his growth per year from then on until he attains his full height around his twenty-fifth year.
As for weight, boys make their greatest gain in their sixteenth or

Incidentally, although little boys and young men are stronger than girls and young women of their age, girls from eleven to seventeen are physically able to handle boys of their age. From December until April neither boy nor girl will gain much weight or height. When April comes they will begin to sprout upwards again like little trees but not until hot weather will they begin to add weight quickly.

ESTIMATES MILLION NATIVES KILLED BY WORK IN AFRICA
Eagerness Of Europe To Draw Minerals And Rubber From Land At Minimum Expense Causes Slavery And Exploitation.
Africans With Food In Abundance See No Need Of Constant Toil In Burning Sun—Two French Books Expose French Abuses On Africa—Press Is Silent While Radicals Speak Out.
BY JAMES W. IVY
The recent discussions a of Politics about Liberia's rub tual expolitation of Liberia be of the American State Department that the natives are exploited of Africa.
The policy being to coin the men and bastards out of t are two recent books which the exploitation of the natives in AU CONGO AND LE RETOUR Both volumes have called for France, of a piece with the st at the Williamstown Institute.
The recent discussions at the Williamstown Institute of Politics about Liberia's rubber plantations and the eventual exploitation of Liberia by Firestone, with the consent of the American State Department, reminds us of the fact that the natives are exploited, and ruthlessly so, in most of Africa.
The policy being to coin money out of the brawn of the men and bastards out of the loins of the women. Here are two recent books which tell us much about the French exploitation of the natives in the French Congo: VOYAGE AU CONGO AND LE RETOUR DU TCHAD, by Andre Gide. Both volumes have called forth rebutals and denials, in France, of a piece with the statements of Jones and Castle at the Williamstown Institute.
M. Gide's books are primarily travel diaries; records of his thoughts and opinions while travelling through the Congo, and noted from day to day. Gide is one of the greatest of living French writers, so even his most insignificant notations and impressions take on the garb of literature.
France has assumed responsibility for over 4,000,000 square miles of African territory. In her colonial policy she has the reputation, among American Negroes, of being one of the fairest of the colonial powers. Yet an impartial examination of her record in Africa reveals hideous crimes and ruthless exploitation. She is, perhaps an inferior to England in the administration of her colonial administration of her colonies; and her admission of a few African and French West Indian Negroes to her colonial administration by no means speaks for an enlightened colonial policy.
If Maran and C. Saint-Jacques and Augagneur are to be believed she makes cruel mistakes and pursues policies that are so obviously detrimental to the future welfare of her African colonies that even Le TEMPS has at times protested. Neither France nor England seem able to extricate themselves from their responsibilities and their resultant effects, in their administration of African territory.
Regardless of the plutocrats the capitalist systems means exploitation, and the more backward the people the more ruthless the exploitation. In Africa there is an abundance of land and wealth, both mineral and vegetable. And its extraction with the minimum expense and the maximum labor power is the real African problem, from the European viewpoint. To get the necessary labor one must pursue a policy that is simply veiled slavery; and not to get labor means no wealth and no dividends for the purse-hungry stockholders in Europe. So the concessionaire companies and their managers, with the consent of the various local administrations, are forced to follow the four main systems of labor recruiting mentioned by J. H. Harris, in AFRICA; SLAVE OR FREE!
"In the African continent" says Mr. Harris, "there are four main systems of labor, each of which has been still greater loss of liberty and haproductive of great loss of life and pirss:
(a) Domestic slavery.
(b) Compulsory Labor for administrative purposes.
(c) Forced labor for private profit (modern slavery).
(d) Fraudulent Contract Labor (modern slavery).
Demand Upon Chiefs
The two methods to secure this labor in Africa are:
"(a) Direct demands made upon the chiefs, either with or without the aid of the administration.
(b) By dispossessing the native of leaving them with nothing but their land and virgin produce, thereby
"In every colony where it has been practised it has led to economic disaster and atrocious ill-treatment of the natives, followed by widespread suffering, disease, and rapid depopulations".
Now M. Gide, in his two books, shows that France, through the making effective use of methods A French concessionaire companies, is and B in recruiting her labor for the production of rubber in the Congo, which has resulted in the effects enumerated by Mr. Harris.
On page 87 of the VOYAGE AU CONGO. Gide writes: "On the 21st of October last, sereant Yemba was sent, by the administrator at Boda, to Bodemhere to carry out this local administrator's orders against the inhabitants of this village (which is between Boda and N'Goto). The in-

Here tell us much about the French of the French Congo: VOYAGE OR DU TCHAD, by Andre Gide. forth rebutals and denials, in statements of Jones and Castle
habitants had refused to comply with the administrator's order to change their resting-place to the Carnot Route, not wishing to leave their crops. Moreover, they argued that the people now located on the Carnot Route are Bayas, while we are Bofos. Sergeant Yemba then left Boda with three guards.
This little detachment was accompanied by Bacue, the captain, and two other men under his command. On the way Sergeant Yemba requisitioned two or three men in every village passed through, and after chaining them led them away. Upon reaching Bodembere they proceeded to carry out their orders.
Twelve men were tied up to a tree, while Cobele, the village chief, fled, jo fired on the twelve men and killed Sergeant Yemba and the guard Bonthem. After this there was a general massacring of the women, whom Yemba struck down with his machete. This slaughter was followed by the seizing of about five children, whom Yemba shut up in a hut, and to which he set fire. Samba N'Goto tells us that there were about thirty-two victims in all".
This Is French Congo
The above is a trvivoal instance of what happens to the Congo natives when they refuse to comply with the orders of the local administration. These things taking place in the French Congo, mind you, not the Belgian, although the Belgians are guilty of similar cruelties.
Here is another that Gide mentioned in the same volume: "At Bambio, on the 8th of September, ten rubber gatherers of the Gound gang, working for the Forestry Company—for failure to bring in rubber during they had brought in double their the preceding month (but this month amount, from 40 to 50 kilograms) — were punished by being forced to march around the local office building with heavy beams of wood on their shoulders, in a burning sun. If they fall the guards would get them up with blows from a heavy whip of rhinoceros hide.
These are merely a few of the many similar cruelties mentioned by M. Gide, but they will, nevertheless, give one some idea of what the Congo natives must endure that French Renaults and Citroens may not go unshod, and that Yvonne and Ginette may continue to have their hot water bas and article d'hygiene. The natives are forced to work in this manner because in Africa creature comforts come easily and with a minimum of exertion, so the natives can see no reason for his toiling for the whites day and day out for a mere pittance, and they refuse to work for them; which forces the Europeans to use force in the recruiting of black labor. This means that the results mentioned by M. Gide are inevitable collary.
As Mr. J. H. Harris says: "The most precious asset in Africa is labor, yet in criminal folly the white races have done to death millions of these, the most relatively harmless but intensely interesting members of the human race". Therefore we are not surprised that "shortage of labor is the lament of almost every political area in the continent".
Missionaries Protest
Even the missionaries, in the Belgian Congo, have put forth feeble protests. Says the CONGO MISSION NEWS, "Few things are having a more disruptive influence upon Mission village work than the removal of the best of our village scholars to work for commercial companies. In some districts it has become very difficult to keep the village schools going.
One salutary effect of M. Gide's two books is the limited publicity which French administrative methods in the Congo has received in sections of the French press. The more powerful French organs, have kept

Were you found in a gooseberry patch?
Did a fairy bring you from fairyland?

No—My darling was born of a wom-

A love that was daddy's and mine,

A love that was almost divine.

Don't Make a Toy Out of Baby
Babies Have Nerves
Much of the nervousness in older children can be traced to the overstimulation during infancy, caused by regarding baby as a sort of animated toy for the amusement of parents, relatives and friends. Baby may be played with, but not for more than a quarter of an hour to an hour daily. Beyond that, being handled, tickled, caused to laugh or even scream, will sometimes result in vomiting, and invariably causes irritability, crying or sleeplessness
Fretfulness, crying and sleeplessness from this cause can easily be avoided by treating baby with more consideration, but when you just can't see what is making baby restless or upset, better give him a few drops of pure, harmless castoria. It's amazing to see how quickly it calms baby's nerves and soothes him to sleep; yet it contains no drugs or opiates. It is purely vegetable—the recipe is on the wrapper. Leading physicians describe 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 Mothehood, 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.
To reduce correctly an art. Few women know the ills that follow a too swift and violent reduction of weight. The process should be gradual and every day precaution should be taken in order that the skin should not hang loose. This is done by a free use of an astringent, both on the body and the face. This will continually keep taut the skin that would soon wrinkle and bag if not guarded against.

THE PINEAPPLE
CHAPTER 1
If Joe Wilks had been sober, all would have been different. When sober, Joe was one of the most popular barbers in Harlem. Polite and tactful as a French marquis, he had a swarm of female customers.
They would come into his shop asking for a kind of bob or slingle which did not at all become them, or which it was a physical impossibility to give them. Joe never refused them directly; he merely went into raptures over some other kind of cut. "Oh, madame!" he would cry de sparingly, "you want a slingle, yet you're the first face I've seen in three months that's made to order for a mannish bob. Of course you'll get your slingle, but if you had a mannish bob you'd knock all Harlem cold." The lady would finally leave the shop with a glow in her heart and a mannish bob on her head.
But when Joe had been drinking a perverse spirit seemed to seize him. The present day brand of drink, which makes some men crazy and others murderous, had another effect on Joe—it made him childishly candid. Often the only thing that distinguished him from sober men was the way he flung out the red, raw truth, regardless of anyone's feelings. He seemed bent on making up for all the white lies he told his female customers. His friends had warned him of this peculiarity, and for that reason he made it a rule never to drink until he had closed his shop for the night.
One day, being human, he broke his rule. An old friend whom he had not seen for twenty years came thru New York on his way to Boston. Joe left the shop in charge of his assistant and went off for the afternoon with his friend. In the evening he returned to the shon, still ready in his legs and fingers and clear in his mind—too clear. He had put on his white jacket and was honing a razor when a young woman came into the shop.
She was good-looking, well-curved and fashionily dressed: she had a quick, sprightly step and a high-held head, which was completely covered by a black picture hat. Her complexion was what they call a burning brown and there was a curious tinge of blue in her eyes. Her features had that adorable compromise, so often seen in colored girls, between sharpness and bluntness, and she spoke in a clear mezzo voice that made everyone in the shop turn and look.
"Is Mr. Wilks in?"
"Yes, madame, right here," said Joe promptly, bowing his frizzled head to his waist. "What can I do for you? I don't believe I ever had this honor before."
"No," said the young woman. "I've just come from Indiana, but my friends in New York told me so much of you that I thought I'd come in. They said this was the only place to go."
"Well, well," was Joe's delighted reply, "I always strive to please, but this is one time I'll strive extra. This chair, madame."
Joe dusted the chair with a whisk broom, then he rubbed it with a towel. Neither of these things was necessary, but he knew how they pleased women.
"I want a pineapple bob," said the lady.
Joe turned away to polishh is scis sors as the lad; removed her hat and placed it on a table.
"Madam," said Joe as she seated herself in the chair, "you came to the right man. You'll get a pineapple bob that'll make the pineapples on the trees jealous. When I get thru with—"
As he turned to the lady the power of speech left him; he could hardly believe she was the same person. With her hat off her beauty was gone. Her hair almost maligned the name of hair. It was a close, hard, reddish, irregular growth that was nowhere more than a half-inch long, and here and there it gathered itself in knots that looked like little chestnut burs. Placed above such a pleasing face it was grotesque.
If Joe had not been drinking he might have achieved a masterpiece of tact. But the perverse imp was uppermost in him, and as he gazed intently at the lady the other barbers shivvered, for they knew what was coming
"Madame," said Joe solemnly, "do you expect me to make a pineapple bob out of that briar match?"
The lady stared at him a second, then she sprang from the chair like a tigress. Unable to speak for race, she spluttered incoherently as she started for the table where she had laid her hat.
"You don't want a pineapple bob," pursued Joe, ignoring the frowns of the other barbers. "what you need is a pineapple wig."
The young woman snatched up her hat and dashed out of the shop so furiously that she seemed to leave a trail of blue fire. Joe looked after her grimly.
"They say they don't like men to lie to 'em," he philosophized, "but see how they act when you tell 'em the truth."
With that remark the young woman passed out of his life. But he did not pass out of hers. In three min-

♠otes he had changed the course of♠hadn't enough hair for any kind of
♠her career.
♠bob. That brute of a barber—
That extra Koester richness is the need of hard-playing kids.
She whirled out of the snop and went swiftly down Seventh Avenue, a striding bunch of fury. The world seemed to turn red before her: passers by, seeing the angry twist of her face and the flash on her eyes, made way for her. Trolley cells jangled at her, on cross streets, automobile horns screamed at her; she hardly noticed them.
Not till she reached One Hundred and Sixteenth Street did she find speech, and then it was explosive.
"The brute! I could strangle him!"
Still seething, she went on to Central Park. The sight of the dark trees and impassive rocks was like a soothing hand on her forehead. She entered the park by an eastward path that led her across a road and toward the lake. In a few minutes she was sitting alone on a bench at the edge of the water.
The darkness of evening, the dim heads of the nodding trees, the golden pennants of light gently undulating on the water slowly calmed her nerves. Anger left her and she was suddenly heartsick. She had never felt so lonely; she turned her face to the side of the bench and tears poured over her cheeks.
"Why—why," she sobbed, "why did fate do that to me?"
Violet South had often said that. She had often thought of the poet Byron. Fate had given him the face of an angel and finished him off with a club foot; fate had given her exquisite feet, a perfect form, a fine face, and topped it all with hair that made men wince when they saw it.
At twenty-one she had qualified for both school-teaching and stenography, then for two years she had taught and saved her money while taking correspondence courses in secretarial work. This summer she had come to New York with enough money to live on for six months, by which time she should have a position as a secretary. She knew that girls with half her ability but twice her looks got such positions with little trouble. All that kept her from beauty was her hair, and she thought that in New York she might find the magic hand that could turn her rusty hair into a thing of beauty. But in her first week a man had flung its ugliness in her face. When she had cried herself out beside the lake she began to wonder how she could have been so foolish as to think that she could take a pineapple bob. It was just the style for her features, she knew, but she
Speared by a sudden thought, she sat up quickly and looked across the water. Suppose that brute knew what he was talking about. Were there such things as pineapple wigs? If there were not, could they be made? In a moment the heartsick girl had turned into a woman of iron purpose. "I'll do it!" she exclaimed, shaking her fist at the lake. "I'll get me a pineapple wig if it takes all the summer and all my savings!"
The next day she started on her quest. It was a simple and not very expensive matter to get an ordinary wig, but she wanted something better. She wanted a wig that was a work of art, that would not only make her beautiful in men's eyes, but would deceive her own sharp-eyed sex. Uptown and downtown, day after day, she trudged in and out of every wig-maker's shop she could find. At last, one day far down on the East Side, she found a wig-making genius who had been driven out of Russia by the revolution.
He made her a wig so natural that it seemed to grow out of her own scalp. The hair was a very dark brown. almost black, and it was a perfect pineapple bob, all in dark, shining rings and clusters, and thick enough to make people say: "That girl must have had a lot of hair before she bobbed it." When she fitted it on her head she was amazed; in the wink of an eye she had become a regal beauty. It had a curl in front that lay on her forehead and brought out the full value of her eyes. She was so overcome by her reflection in the mirror that she gave the indigent artist seventy-five dollars instead of the fifty he asked.
"I've got it. I've got it!" she exulted. "Now for the battle!"
That evening she strolled up and down Seventh Avenue three times without her hat. It was a new sensation; since coming New York she had always kept her hat on. She had been so afraid of exposing the sorry suit of hair nature had given her that none of her New York friends had ever seen or suspected it. On her second turn up the avenue she met a girl acquaintance.
"Why, Violet South!" cried the girl. "I do believe this is the first time I've seen you with your hat off. If I had hair like your's I'd never wear a hat; I'd give the avenue sheiks an eyeful."
The girl passed on. The Russian had been right. Violet reflected; his
wig could deceive the eyes of women. She had already learned that it deceived those of men; nearly every male on the avenue had given her a second look, the young ones boldly and the old ones covertly.
There was one young man who did not look at her. He sat at the window of an office, staring out at the avenue, and each time she passed he was in the same position as before. He was as still as a wax fixture. She grew curious, the next time she went by the window she slowed her step. There he was, in the same hunched position, his arms folded on the back of a chair, his chin on his arms, staring at the crowd and seeing nothing. On his face was a look of despair, as in he had gone past the things of this world and was awaiting the final blow that would put him out of it.
He was a copper-brown man of thirty, with a high forehead, large eyes and a mouth that was set in pain. Violet noticed his hair, for her mind was full of the subject. His hair, if it had been longer, would have been good material for the style of bob that now adorned her head; it was full, black and shining, with big waves. But most of all she noted the expression of his face. She passed close to the window but he did not seem to see her. She won dered who he could be, then she read the lettering on the window: "Richard Fenner, Real Estate and Mortgages."
"I wonder what's the matter with that man," she said as she went on up the avenue. "Even if he's lost his girl he needn't look so downhearted as that."
Three blocks up the avenue she stopped and turned to go down again. As she approached the real estate office she saw the man again, still in the same position; he had not moved a muscle. Suddenly he saw her. He lifted his head and gave her a quick but intense look, then he half rose from the chair. He seemed about to speak to her, but he settled down again and she passed on, more curious than ever. The next time she came up the avenue the man Fenner, or who-ever he was, had gone.

Robert T. Hughes (white) home on the Lexington-Paris road in Kentucky willed to his "adopted" son Rob Henry Hughes and his colored mother.
ADOPTED
Charlotte Johnson Has Two Homes One White And The Other Colored
Charlotte Johnson Has Two Homes One White And The Other Colored
Three distinguished old homes in the fashionable district of Annapolis, Md., long the property of one of Maryland's oldest and most prominent white families, last week fell into the hands of a youthfuf colored girl, daughter of a seamstress and domestic servant.
At the same time the girl, Charlotte Andrews Johnson, was bequeathed a portion of the proceeds from the sale of other property which it is estimated will bring her another 320,000.
The bequests were made in the will of the late Miss Margaret Andrews, white.
Charlotte Johnson is a daughter of Mrs. Hester R. Johnson, house keeper who has long served in the Andrews family.
Not pretty, but intelligent, well educated and well dressed, Miss Charlotte has been brought up in two homes; one white and one colored, both of which she loves with equal servor and devotion.
In one she was the only child of her mother, limited in finances but not in culture, and refinement—the plain and simple home of the poor.
In the other she was the "adopted" child of these white New England chelor maids, who have reared her; their own.
The Misses Andrews took Charlotte soon as she was born. They furnished a nurse. Annapolis folk blinked; the brown-skinned baby rolled round in a carriage by a nurse who could have passed for white.
She has been carefully reared, and dedicated in art, verse, literature. She has her room in the big Andrews mansion. She ate and slept with them and in many respects was and is their own child. Now that one of them is dead, the other two have deared their intention likewise to remember Charlotte in their wills.
Here was a brown mite, the Misses Andrews reasoned, not likely to have real chance in life. They longed to express the maternal feeling of care and protection, why not "adopt" Charlotte and express it. That's what they've done making her the wealthiest race girl in the state capital.
another case of adoption and roi-
ne a-la-south was disclosed three
yrs ago in Lexington, Kentucky.
Colonel John T. Hughes, aged 83,
of the wealthiest white farmers
central Kentucky died leaving the
uk of his $500,000 estate to three col-
led servants.
Thes ervants are Mrs. Ellen Davis,
about 60 years old, his housekeeper,
er son Robert Henry Hughes and
exander Rankin, the Colonel's val-
t.
Important thing to note is that
Hughes was a bachelor, according to
his friends and never married and
that the son of his housekeeper was
even the Colonel's name, he was
adopted".
Rumor is that a common law ar-
agement existed between the cou-
se who loved each other dearly, but
no never wed on account of the
difference between their races.
The Hughes estate includes about 900 acres of the best land in the Grass country. It fronts the Exington Paris road. This house tother with 293 acres of land went Mrs. Davis who got also the consits which include antiques and modern furnishings, his farming utensils, wagons, stock, etc. Robert Henry Hughes, the colored man, got the Sudly farm on another like with 160 acres worth $300 per acre. Alexander Rankin, the Colonel's alet who served the Colonel for forty years was given the Ware farm containing 96 acres worth at least 50,000 for his natural life time and 80,000 in the death, the farm according to the will, will revert to Robert Henry Hughes whom the Colonel styles in his will as the "son of my old colored servant. Ellen Davis, who as worked for me faithfully for over forty years."

Colonel Hughes never went around about the neighbors. The bluest blood of the South is said to have flown in his veins. He knew few people al though everybody knew him.
His colored family is likewise quite reticent. Mrs. Davis at the time, lived in a rather plain home in Chest nut street in the colored section of Lexington.
The adopted son was abroad. Their's is the "big house" now despite a con test filed by other relatives of the old man.

Atlanta Was Shocked
Atlanta, Ga., was shocked several years ago when Dolly Gardner was "adopted" by John Bates, white, leading Atlanta business man and a vice president of the Title and Guarantee Company. He installed her in his home, but society muttered.
They are now living on Grand Boulevard in a palatial Chicago home.
Adopted As Companion
Miss Carolyn Lewis who recently brought suit against the heirs of Dr. German B. Miller, white, of Lexington, Kentucky, claims the dead doctor's 1000-acre estate on the ground that he "adopted" her "secretary, assistant, agent, companion an employee, and had always promised she was to have his estate. Dr. Miller was an invalid, and Miss Lewis his constant companion. He was a graduate of Johns Hopkins and Heidleberg Universities. He died, she said, before he could make good his promises.
Leaves Are Turning Watch Poison Ivy
Leaves Are Turning Watch Poison Ivy
They had just stepped from a large sedan and stood admiring the cluster of red leaves that festooned the fence.
"Wouldn't they make beautiful decorations?" remarked the woman.
"We could gather a bunch, place them around the house — why, they are perfectly gorgeous."
"I'll gather some," said the man.
"I think Virginia Creeper has the most delightful Autumn tint. ..."
"It's poison ivy, mister," interrupted a small boy in a uniform that fortunately is becoming more and more common. "When you see five leaves, you are safe. With three, like that however, you have to watch out. Better leave that alone."
The man smiled. "And are you stationed here to warn thoughtless motorists like us?" he asked.
The boy nodded. "It's our troop's good turn." he explained. "We each take a day a month, and you would be surprised how many people we keep from this dangerous stuff."
DRESS WELL
Deep capes of fur appear on some new cloth coats, thus urplice bunding of fur down the coat front serving to hold the idea en suite. The capes are rounded, pointed or square, and mostly waist deep. Deep cavalier cuffs flare from wrist to elbow, and in many instances both cape and cuffs are of the detachable order. Linings of satin, moire or crepe show decided color contrasts in appliques and bandings.
Ostrich feather dealers are hopeful. Clipped e trich is sponsored by some famous milliners in turbans and loques, making for an effect almost like fur. "Les Esquimaux" is the name applied to them—just as though the Esquimos ever knew the ostrich in his native haunts!
Warp print silks are in high favor for the new formal frocks. Delicate tinted grounds with the pattern in indeterminate blendings of soft colorings. The designs may be either closely bunched or scattered at wide intervals over the surface.

For grief often dwells where it seldom is seen.

TAYLOR—In loving remembrance
of my dear sister Henrietta Taylor,
who died one year ago, September
27, 1927.
There is a sister who misses you
sad.
And thinks of you dearly and hourly;
But I try to be brave and content.
But the tears that I shed in silence;
And I breathe a sigh of regret;
For you were mine and I remember
Though all the world forget.
By her loving sister, MRS. EDNA
