DOCTOR'S NAME MAY BE BROT IN CASE Second Normal School Girl Denies Early Morning Petting Parties A move to end his turbulent voyage in the sea of matrimony was made by Ferdinand T. Addison last week when he filed a petition for divorce from his wife, Mrs. Dorothy Richardson Addison Coppin Normal School student on grounds of abandonment. While abandonment is made the basis of the suite Addison declares that he will also testify that he came back from New York suddenly some time ago and found Mrs. Addison in company with a prominent local doctor, at a petting party in the home of Mrs. Lillie Pace, 1802 Presstman street, at 2:00 A. M. Mrs. Pace is also a normal school girl. Addison, who is now in New York studying music, at New York University, also blames his mother-in-law, whom he saves has helped to persuade Mrs. Addison from his with him. Mr. Addison made a written statement of the case to Principal Miles Conner, of the Normal School. Persecution Claimed When interviewed, Mrs. Pace denied absolutely that Addison had ever seen his wife in company with any doctor at home. She stated that on the occasion of the last Famille Coppin Normal School prom, she and Mrs. Addison, both of whom are attending the normal school in an automobile belonging to Charles Eoops, who drove them and that Addison were to come to the home that night. There were no petting nartices, she said. Mrs. Pace declares that the case is one of persecution and that Addison has sought to injure his wife and her family because she had been with him for reasons which she indicated were justifiable.

NEW STORY STARTS NEXT W Just Three I DON'T MISS I Afro's First Run Gold By AUBREY That WHITE G. O. P. IS HOOVER AIM IN THE SOUTH Pact With Lily Whites Exposed By Hoover Speakers In Dixie ACCEPTANCE SPEECH PARAGRAPH CITED Promise Is To Support No Negro To Office In These States LOUISVILLE, KY. Hoover plans not only to make the republican party lily white, but to keep it so. This is the view expressed by Arthur Sears Henning in a sensational article in the republican "Chicago Tribune" Wednesday. Henning, after a town of Kentucky quotes an interview between Jennings C. Wise, white of Richmond, a leader of southern Republicans, and Mr. Hoover at Palo desrojos follows: ARGENTINA Col. Wise explained to Hoover the opportunity of ennexing the anti-Smith Democrats permanently to the Republican party if he would authorize the elimination of the Negro and the re-organization of the southern G. O. P. as a white man's institution. Ached Public Assurance He particularly sought a declaration in Hoover's acceptance speech which could be used in the south to convince the bolting Democrats that the Republican party henceforth is to be the party of white supremacy, no less than the Democratic party. Once it is related, with help from the draft of a passage which the delegation asked Hoover to incorporate in his address to accomplish their purpose. Col. Wise held it imperative to assure the south in unmistakable terms that if Hoover is elected he will appoint Negroes to federal office and will not limit the selection of appointees. Republicans wherever there is a scarcity of Republicans of standing in their communities In Acceptance Speech IN ACCEPTANCE Whether or not the nominee accepted the draft planked by Col. Wise there does not appear in the acceptance speech a passage which the southern Republican reorganizers are circulating in the south to assure the white anti-Smith Democrat that the Republican party is done with Negro domination and Negro leadership, and that if Hoover is elected the white Democratic bollers are organized in the distribution of patronage. The passage is this: "Our civil service has proved great national boon. Appointive office, both north, south, east, and must be based solely on merit, character, and reputation in community in which the appointee is to serve; it is it essential for the proper 12 COUPLES ARE WED AT ROCKVILLE ROCKVILLE, Md. — Marriage licenses issued here recently at this Grove Green, include: James V.

Persecution Claimed TORY STARTS NEXT WEEK ON ME Just Three Installments DON'T MISS A BIT OF IT Afro's First Run Gold Seal Race By AUBREY BOWSER HIS PAST RECORDS COLORED VOTE GOLDSBOROUGH FRED B. WATSON Turning the light on the past record of Phillips Lee Goldsborough, candidate for the United States Senate, is the purpose of this editorial and cartoon. Mr. Goldsborough was selected by the Republican white leaders of Maryland without any consultation with the colored leaders of this State, although the colored people furnish forty per cent of the Republican party's vote. mish forty per cent of them They did not consult City Councilman Warner T. McGuinn, Dr. Ernest Lyon, Captain Edward N. Wilson, Rishop A. L. Gaines, Captain George W. Brown, or Mr. Remus Dorsay. Everyone of these leaders opposed Mr. Goldsborough when he was candidate for Senate in the Republican primaries in 1916, because of the Goldsborough record while governor. Any man, like Mr. Goldsborough who has been in public life for 20 years, leaves a public record and it is only necessary for the citizens of this State to examine the record to find out whether he has been an honest, upright, progressive and worthy servant, or a selfish, shrewd, calculating politician, using public office for his own ends. Mr. Goldsborough was governor of Maryland, but the 45,000 registered colored voters in Maryland who supported him for that office received but scant, if any, recognition at his hands during his four years' residence in Annapolis. He refused to recognize the colored vote by appointment of any colored person to public office, except two laborers' jobs in the Tobacco Warehouse. Mr. Goldsborough made no effort to remedy the miserable educational system of a large section of Maryland at that time, a system which provided scarcely any facilities and only an average school term of three months. Under Governor Goldsborough, some colored school teachers drew less than $100 a year for their services. While in Annapolis, Mr. Goldsborough made no real effort to provide adequate means to protect the health of the colored people in this State. Not a single institution outside of Bay View Asylum would admit a tubercular patient. Mr. Goldsborough knew this when he became governor, his attention was called to it while he was governor, and he made no effort to do anything about it. To-day Governor Ritchie appoints almost every qualified person who applies for the office of notary public. Mr. Goldsborough, when governor, appointed five colored persons of the many who applied, and he did this only after a great deal of persuasion and delay. These things we mention are not reproduced from memory; they are reproduced from the printed records. Few men in the State have as much "brass" as Mr. Goldsborougs "Three Months" Goldsborough, ex-governor of Maryland, under whom the colored children had but three months of schooling and who made no effort to change these miserable conditions. Now "Three Months" Goldsborough, defeated for reelection as governor, defeated for nomination to the United States Senate, "lays low" for 12 years and thinks the colored people of Maryland will forget all about his record. Now he comes out before them with pleasing smile and honeyed words asking for their suffrage. If Mr. Goldsborough had "layed low" for 20 years we do not think the people of this State would ever forget that he double-crossed them while governor, and we do not think they will give him a chance to go to the United States Senate to double-cross them there.

He was captain of the football team while at Armstrong high but was unable to get at the football coach at Lincoln and consequently couldn't even come out for the team.

C.—Kelly Miller sent Presidential Candidate Herbert Hoover a 4685 page open letter this week entitled the "Negro at the Cross Roads." In it Mr. Hoover is taken to task for his lily-white program and his silence on the Ku Klux Klan. "I have seen forth the feeling of colored voters," said Dr. Miller, "to which I think you are entitled." Some of the striking paragraphs of the letter are: Would "If Chancellor Ammer, Thaddeus Stevens and the galaxy of brilliant Republican statesmen who incorporated the three Civil War amendments into the Constitution were living they would in all probability be Grand Owl allisty it faces up today.

Smith Condemned Klan "During the present campaign, Governor Smith, your agile adversary has condemned the Klan his accustomed frankness and courage, but up to date neither you, nor Mr. Republican of any other orthodox Republican of high party rank has opened his prudent lips. The Old Klan "The Ku Klux Klan sprung up after the Civil War for the express purpose of denying the Negro the full measure of right as an American citizen. The Republican party or wicked order. The rejuvenated Klan began its operations in the South and in the Democratic party, but that party body and organization from that party by Garden four years ago. It sought and found hospitality in the Republican party. The basis of operation shifted to the West and North. It has gained all but complete control of the Republican party in several states, notably in Indiana, where it now has two members—one in the penitentiary and one out. Many Vote for Smile "Many, many Negroes will vote the Democratic ticket, as vindictive protest against anarchy of the Rebel party.

AFRO CAMPAIGN WINNERS WILL DRIVE AUTOS AFRO CAMPAIGN WINNERS WILL DRIVE AUTOS NO AFRO EMPLOYEE ELIGIBLE IN CAMPAIGN A STATEMENT BY THE AFRO It has been called to our attention that rumors have started which are intended to discourage candidates from entering our "Everybody Wins" campaign and which, at the same time, reflect on the integrity of the AFRO-AMERICAN. One of these rumors is that it will be necessary for the winners of the three free cars to pay a certain amount of money to obtain possession of their cars after they have been won. THIS IS A FALSEHOOD. The three cars will be delivered, free of ALL cost of any nature, to the very doors of their winners. Rumor No. 2 is that the AFRO will not give away the first prize car (referring to the $2,870 Franklin Sedan) or that if they do it will go to some member of the firm. FALSE. DODD. Each and every of these three cars, brand new from the dealers from whom they were purchased, will be given to the contestants securing the first, second and third greatest number of votes EXACTLY in accordance with the published campaign as was plainly stated in the rules governing the campaign, no member of the AFRO staff or any member of his or her family can enter the campaign. Any statement by anyone other than those published by the AFRO-AMERICAN or owners of the AFRO-CAMERIAN or other than those published through this newspaper are without authority. We are simply taking this method to silence the malicious gossips who are aware of the campaign circulating these, to use not, but, pointed word, lies. The reputation of the AFROS 37 years of business success needs no defense but these whispering scandalmongers need to be labeled publicly for what they are, hence the statement.

C.—In the event of the election of Oscar DePriest, Republican nominee for Congress from the second congressional district of Illinois who has been indicted by a special grand jury in Chicago in connection with vice and gambling conditions and their relations to election frauds, the House of Representatives will have presented to it for determination a current political controversy that has been the subject of heated debate on the floor, of the Senate. DePriest has engaged Clarence Darrow, white, and Judge Edw. Morris to defend him... When the Seventieth Congress convened and began to organize, the controversy was started. Frank L. Smith and William S. Vare presented their credentials as Senators-elect from the States of Illinois and Pennsylvania, and denoted to them the oaths of office. It decided that Mr. Smith was not entitled to membership in the Senate, because of excessive illegal campaign contributions. The case of Mr. Committee, in a Special Committee for investigation of alleged fraud and corruption in the primary election. The Berger Case A case in the House that may have some bearing on the seating of Mr. DePriest, if he should be elected, was that of Victor L. Berger, the first Socialist ever elected to Congress. He was indicted for anti-patriotic utterances and纵火. He was held for 20 years in the penitentiary. The House of Representatives refused him admission in 1918. He was reelected in December, 1919, with an increased majority. The House again refused him admission. He more reelected to the Sixty-eighth Congress with a very much increased majority and seated without op In 1921 the United States Supreme Court reversed the government's withdrawal all other cases pending against him. He was relected to the Sixty-ninth and ninety-seventh terms. CURTIS COULD CARRY HIS LIKKER WELL GINGINNATT, O.-Maryland Senator William Cabell Bruce's charge that Senator Charles Curtis, G. O.

SEGREGATION UNCOVERED TODAY IN SIX G. O. P. SEGREGATION IS FOUND IN SIX DEPARTMENTS 30 Clerks Jim Crowed In Secretary Mellon's Treasury Department P. O.; INTERIOR; VETS BUREAU ALSO GUILTY NEW YORK.—A fact-finding survey of the extent of segregation in Washington government bureaus has been completed by the N. A. A. C. P., through two investigators. A summary of their findings, made public today by the N. A. A. C. P. is as follows: The instances of segregation in various degrees found in the Washington Bureaus are summarized as follows: Treasury Department: 30 Negro clerks in Liberty Loan checking division under a Negro section chief, segregated in the accounting room in Room 341, whites doing same work being assigned elsewhere. Interior Department. kitchen. McRae, colored stenographer, set apart from stenographic pool. Five Negro clerks at south floor. Sixth floor, white clerks being at the other end. Post Office Department: Preferred routes said to be given Post Office. Negroes not assigned to white carriers and unable to rise in the service beyond the rating of "Special Clerk." Negroes never made foremen or assistant foremen. Vacant. 15 Negro leks in room 210, under a colored section chief. Government Room Office: Government Room offices and lavatories for white and colored girls, colored girls obliged to go from 4th to 3rd floor, not allowed to use accommodation. Navy Department: White clerks in front. Negroes in the rear of Room 210. Gafney office: This segregation is practiced as are as follows: Bureau of Printing and Engraving tables. Table in Negroes though both races use same steam tables. Government Printing Office: Separate steam tables and cating tables. New three tables in rear. Cafeterias Operated by Concession-aires: The races in the Department of the Interior (separate room assigned to Negroes) in Washington (separate room pro clerks and carriers); U. S. Post Office Building (separate steam and eating room) General Accounting (separate office) Separate Lockers: Are maintained for Negroes and white men in the Bureau of Printing and Engraving and for colored and white men in the Washington Post Office. Rooms Are maintained for women in the Bureau of Printing and Enraving, the Government Engraving Office. No indications of segregation were in the Departments of Agriculture, Labor, and Labor State. No indications of segregation were in the Report to the N. A. A. C. P. one investigator states: "During the time upon which instances set out were gathered, I heard many complaints from Negro clerks of unjust fair treatment, and of rating and promotion. They felt they were discriminated against on account of race and color, city status, and other efficiency and capabilities less than theirs. This discrimination may be termed subjective and is probably harder to Women Suffer More "Negro women seem to suffer more from race discrimination than do the men. This is true. employees grasped as blacks by Negro workers traded as laborers and messengers are not confronted with race distinction as a grating factor to the fact that most laborers and messengers are Negroes." GIVIL SERVICE PHOTOS ... M. M. photographs required by candidates for Civil Service appointments are used to evade selection and apprehension. The colored clerks told me they believed that the policy of subjection and silent discrimination in the department which they are undergoing is due to section, division and bureau chiefs and not to the department heads; that they have the power to inflict of what is actually going on in this respect." Atraid of Their Jobs. Walter W. report to the N. A. A. C. P., stressed the difficulty of remedying the present situation because many of the colored workers in the department later no complaints to their Department Chiefs. In making public its report, the N. A. A. C. P. made the following state- "In order to fight segregation effectively, it was necessary to find out as exactly as possible just where and when the Negro problem has now been done. It should be borne in mind however that the Negro's problem in Washington is a larger one than mere segregation after employment. It is also important that a fair share of appointments and is promoted in accordance with his proved merits."

"I'd rather stand with Tammany Hall regardless of side to side with the Klan and Lily White political organizations of this country," he said. "What would the American people say I owe them with their charged with forming political coalitions with these organizations to win the Presidency of the American Republic?" he ask- Smith Hates Kluxers In his talk in favor of the election of Governor Smith for the Presidency, Mr. McDonald said in part: "All citizens black and white alike should honor a brave and independent man like Governor Smith—a man of stainless integrity, will, and intellectual force. He has the good sense to know that Ku Kluxers. Lilly Whites, flatterers, cringers and time-servers are dangerous citizens of our community, and he refuses any effort to gain applause and power by pandering to the mistakes, prejudices and passions of the multitude who are the enemies of liberty and human rights." Tired Of Injustice "There are in the South, North, East and West thousands of white men and women who have accepted in good faith the results of the Civil War; men and women who love the American institutions and wish to present this Nation: men and women tired of racial hatred, tired of legislation based upon disfranchisement, peonage, inequality before the laws in all the states, and a longing for a real governmental policy based upon mutual respect and confidence—all American citizens, regardless of race, color or religion. "Governor Smith is bigger than a party, would wonder sometimes, whether he governed by men of parties full of malice, and full of slander."

Leroy Locke while here invited Africans studying here to perfect their education by going to Howard University, says the "African World." "He appealed to young Africans to widen their outlook by visiting American Universities and exchanging views with the leaders of the country, travelled 3,000 miles for education in England, it should not be very hard for them to travel 3,000 more to take a course at one of the Negro colleges under the Negro boks, like Howard, of which he remained a member out of loyalty to Dr. Mordecai Johnson. "It was particularly well situated to be a point of contact between Afro-Americans and their fellows from the Motherland; centrally placed between the Northern and the Southern States, it was touch with both. The Black World was knitting itself together, but there was no short cut to social reunion. Afro-Americans must master the techniques of Western civilization in America, while retaining the links with their racial past in Africa. "Afro-Americans were keenly eager for greater knowledge of Africa, which they had hitherto seen through the white man's eyes as a past-panse of marshes, exhors of miasmatic poisons which could kill them in 60 days. If they succeeded for so long in leading the bloodthirsty savages who infested the fever-stricken jungles. They wanted to see Africa through African eyes, and to show America as it presented itself to Afro-Americans. He had himself felt the need for personal knowledge of Africa, and in 1923 had started a plan to spend five months in each of three years travelling through Africa. After the first trip, during which he visited the Near East, Egypt and the Sudan, his programme had been interrupted, but he intended to continue it by tours through West. MRS.

TOBLAME FOR ALL ILLS RACE SUFFERS Certainty Of Negro Vote Says Neval Thomas Has Made Party Careless NEVAL THOMAS CITES TAFT'S DECISION Fiddling With Anti-Lynch- ing Bill Another Reason For A Revolt By NEVAL H. THOMAS WASHINGTON, D. C.—No political party will worry over the ills of any group if it can count upon its support without it. Politicians look after the interest of those who can raise them to power and punish them for broken promises. Had the Negro race divided in 1877, it never would have been disfranchised. Both parties would have been in rivalry for he and she, and the trade for the fullest citizenship. Instead, he continued to vote for the memories of Lincoln, Sumner and Lincoln, but he was been until recent years, until the party has bartered away nearly every right which his Fathers own to Democrats and separate peace with Democrats and separate peace with them, and left us out in the cold. The Republican Party has been charged with sins of ammission and they stand in criminal guilt of that charge. The South, and all of its Hellishness could not stand the Republic Court and be held responsible. The South has never taken a step against us that did not find the Republican Party in control of the White House. The Supreme Court has never did a single thing to protect us. So, they stand guilty of all of the ills we suffer, for they could have protected us from all of them and they would have if we had revolted long ago. **Sureme Court** But worse, they are not only guilty of "acts of omission" the Stand Court has ordered the most severe form of Commission. They have lent the Supreme Court to the cause of NGO enslavement, for it has scrapped the 14th and 15th Amendments the United States has enacted and nearly all other assault the white South has made against these two bulwarks of liberty whose unmistakable purpose and intent were the destruction of all color distin Only this last December, I sat in the Supreme Court only to hear Chief Justice Taft, standing where Taney stood once again. I delicately deleted David Scott Decision of the twentieth century legalizing serreaction in education—a blighting blow to millions unborn, a blow to millions committed, a senate appeal and honoring the long fight for the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, and saw the most wicked farce ever perpetrated upon a people to euchre it out of is de Anti-Lynch Bill Lodge from Massachusetts was the Senate leader, and the republicans had the unprecedented majority of twenty (20), yet that party made a deal with the Republican, fake filibuster a little while, and then have its Republican leader rise and announce complete surrender. It was a pink tea arrangement with the South while white, even the North, and one which could not fool a baby. That very session of the Senate sat nine hundred bills written into legislation, yet it could not get through the Nation and civilization itself.

"I am going to call on him in He indicated that he believed the statement of Mr. Raskob repudiating his services had been inspired by southern pride, but he is not of too much sense and too much political experience," he said of the Democratic chairman, "to say or do anything that would benefit all of us, because after all is said and done I have friends all over the world, and they are not all colored people." Determination The former champion, one of the greatest fighters of all times, recalled his fight to gain the title. His friends admired him, he said, for his grim determination in spite of his mistreatment and persecution. "When I was fighting to gain the championship of the world," he said, "even my race knows how I was misrepresented, but I continued fighting and finally won out. Now, that is what I am trying to do for my people and all fair-minded citizens, and I am going to continue my activities for you." Worked In Chicago He said he had done quite a bit of work in Indiana for the Democratic national ticket. He stated that he organized the Democratic primary he received to aid from Earl Dickerson, the middle western regional director of the Smith-for-President Colored League. He said he did not work with Mr. Dickerson because he did not believe him to be sincere in the work he is doing. Mr. Johnson went from here to New York, L. to fill another theatrical engagement. D.

Failing to find the person he was looking for, he began attacking bystanders. Washington was waiting for a street car. Tokas came up behind him and began killing him in the head with knife.

Today, we have the cascaret. Cascarizing the bowels never forms a laxative habit. If already formed, an occasional Cascaret, usually bechaitable, for cascaar strengthens the muscular walls of the bowels, and their need of any ald at all grows constantly less. What other cathartic has this characteristic? The answer is of none. An evacuation brought gently about by cascara will, nine times in ten, be followed by a manmade purgatives that go through one's system like a bulle. Physicians tell us cascara is the ideal laxative and the tongue tells us candy Cascaret are its ideal CASCARETS They Work While You Sleep!

C. — The "Fellowship Forum", National organ of the Ku Klux Klan, has suddenly discontinued its policy of publishing scurrilous articles connecting Alfred E. Smith and Negroes. In its last issue not a line appeared linking the name of the Democratic nominee for President with colored men. The non-appearance of these semi-formal Forum is remanded by many stantiation of the rumors that G. O. P. leaders had become greatly disturbed over the unfavorable reaction they received by many members. The story persists here that Colonel Mann and other G. O. P. leaders were instructed by those high in party councils to seize the opportunity to publish the forum and religious hatred among white voters, thousands of colored voters were being alienated and had been supported. Derogatory and unjustifiable statements made of Harlem, references to colored and white children attending mixed schools in New York City, and many Hull to give Negroes a square deal were stressed in the Fellowship Forum for the benefit of those of G.

At least a million people know this; what a pity there are any who don't? Especially parents; because children love to take a Cascaret.

But as the first step of returning sluggishness another Cascaret is as effective as the first. There isn't a druggist who hasn't Cascarets, so WHY experiment with laxatives? EMANCIPATION DAY IN STATE OCTOBER 15 Maryland Voted To Abolish Slavery In 1864 By 2,170 Majority CIVILIAN VOTE FOR SLAVERY-BY 995 Dr. Wesley Tells How Vote Of Civil War Soldiers Saved The Day By vote of the State, Maryland's 87,189 slaves were set free October 12th, 1864, Dr. Charles Wesley, professor of History at Howard University, told the A. M. E. Preachers' Meeting at Bethel Church, Monday morning. Friday, October 12, will be the 64th anniversary of Maryland's abolition of slavery, Dr. Wesley said. On this date, declared the speaker, the State State were asked to vote upon a new Constitution which would free the slaves. Soldiers' Vote Wins For. 2,631; against. 263. —237 majorly for. Thus the people of Maryland rejected the Constitution abolishing slavery by a majority of 998, but the governor, who had opted the Constitution 1, a majority of 2,170. Maryland thus owes its freedom to the soldiers' vote who sent their ballots back from the front of the section. Section of Constitution Dr. Wesley said the section of the Constitution voted on October 12th was that hereafter in this State there shall be neither slavery nor involuntary servitude except to punishment of crime. Whereof the party shall have power to punish a person held to service or labor as slaves are hereby declared free." Lincoln's Proclamation Dr. Wesley declared the Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation of January 1, 1863 brought freedom to no one. It was announced operating only in those states where the Union armies could enforce it. Dr. Wesley recalled Lincoln's remarks to the Secretary of State, the Lincoln, had come to the conclusion that Emancipation was a military necessity absolutely essential for the salvation of the state; that what was needed the slaves or ourselves be subdued. Table Quoted Dr. Wesley quoted the following table showing how the number of slaves in Maryland decreased before the emancipation: | Year | Free Negroes Slaves | | :--- | :--- | | 1790 | 8,043 | 193,036 | | 1800 | 19,587 | 105,633 | | 1830 | 52,388 | 102,944 | | 1840 | 89,737 | | 1850 | 74,078 | 89,069 | | 1860 | 83,942 | 87,189 | The Baltimore Sun of November 1, 1864, declared, "not only the continued progress of the cause of emancipation responsible for their emancipation by" the State, but also the aid of several white men of the type of Henry Winter Davis who was a staunch supporter of the cause and a champion of Negro civil rights as According to Dr. Wesley in 1860 property of Negroes in the State assesses 10,000 acres there were 10 confectioners, two druggists, several grocers, and other business.

Priest Also Suggests Special Pews For Colored Christians FIVE POINTS MADE BY DIXIE RECTOR P. E. General Conference Of Workers Hears Plea For Jim Crow Pews BROOKLYN, N. Y., (Special) — "That in every church for white people some seats be marked "reserved for colored people," and that these seats be not in the gallery, except when the space is needed on special occasions." "That the colored people of their own volition cheerfully conform to such arrangements, and also go forward with their own efforts after white communicants have received." These are two of the five recommendations of Rev. George W. Loywhite, a son of a bishop born in Alabama of a Catholic background, of the Central General Conference of Church Workers in the Protestant Episcopal Church.

He was missionary jurisdiction and Missionary Bishops he averred such as being opposed to Catholic principles. He did however desire to have colored men, but refused laity, repudiated all church bodies. He desired to have the Negro's Ecclesiastical status recognized in full, and thinks it fair and proper that such shades be used. He wished to have Narcissus represented in the Diocesan Councils, all departments of the Diocese, the department of the General Convention and in the National Council of the Church at large.

M. E. Church, Rev. A. R. Montague, pastor. Cape Charles, Va., to Rev. T. D. Hawkins for services in a 15-days' revival service. Whereas: The revival at the St. Stephens A. M. E. Church, Cape Charles, Va., conducted by Rev. T. D. Hawkins, A. M., D. D., of Houston Texas, better known as the "Lion of Texas" was a marked success, and Whereas: The Gospel he preached on the plan of Salvation is as clear as a cloudless sky and invincible as "Eternal Truth", and Whereas: The sane, practical, as well as forceful, way he reaches the Gospel has resulted in some slumbers in our city who have been seeking to know the Lord for thirty and more years, to accept Jesus, and Whereas: His preaching has also enlightened the believers and unbelievers in our church, because of the fact that he always says in his sermons, "Thus saith the Lord God" for every position he takes.

The two churches agreed to pay him jointly $1300 annually, making weekly payments for the claims he gets $1 one week, another week $10 and other weeks he receives less. The pastor cites that Johnstown, Pa. where he was pastor. He loaned the trustees $336 to pay a debt and was not able to collect any of the money aloft with the money. Rev. Mr. Jones states that he is heartened and would like to have some relief. Rev. Jones attended Howard University in 1916, spending two years there. During his stay here none of the other M. E. Ministers have invited him to meet with churches given him a chance among those people who might help him. Before coming to Baltimore he pastored the Mormon ington, where he despite the fact that the congregation, only 135 members in the congregation, they supported him better than the 400 members he has in the charges of being 46 years old.

R. CHURCH'S RIGHT TO BOSS G.O.P. ACCEDED Memphis Daily Leader Should And Will Control Tenn. Organization NO JIM CROW PARTY POSSIBLE IN STATE Surprising Anyone Should MEMPHIS, TENN.—Declaring that the attempt of a little group of willful white Republicans to eliminate R. R. Church from control of Tennessee politics is a political absurdity and that his influence in the party is more extensive in the South than any man, white or black, the Memphis Commercial Appeal, leading white daily, says lily whites might as well make up their minds that there is no such thing as a jim crow Republican organization. In this editorial, which is headed "The Ludicrous Attempt to Create A Jim-Crow Republican Party, the ruler says." "The attempt of the Press-Scimar and a little group of willful white Republicans to eliminate Bob Church from direction of the Hoover campaign is one of our local political absurdities. "If Church does not direct the campaign in Memphis, it will be because he is engaged in political matters of more consequence. "If Church does not personally conduct the Hoover campaign in Shelby County it will be conducted by one of his lieutenants. "It is surprising that anyone should question his authority. He won over the white-white faction in the August primary. "He and his faction were recognized in Kansas City. His delegation was seated in the temporary organization. He won the contest before the credentials committee. "No federal appointment is made in Memphis and Shelby County under a Republican administration, endorsement." "Federal office-holders and applicants for federal favor not only admit his authority, but seek his favor. "His part in Republican affairs is recognized by appointment on the committee that notified Hoover of his nomination. "The present controversy smacks of ingratitude. Church is a Republican year in and year out. He is high in the councils of his part. "It is rank hypocrisy to ask him to efface himself to make way for Democratic recruits who find the color line an obstacle to complete conversion to Republicanism. "Church is modern, mass-murdering projects himself into the spotlight of local politics. His work is done in his Beale street office in Memphis and in the White House in Washington. "He might consent to the appointment of a titular leader, but he does not endorse him with prestige with the national Republican organization. There is no call on him to do so. "The lily white Republicans and the lily pure Democrats who support Hoover night as well make up him) lily u. s. . . their minds that there is no such thing as . . . Jim Crow Republican coalition. "The demand that Church and other Negro Republicans make way for disaffected Democrats who want to ride with the Republican party for this trip only is a striking bit of audacity. "It is one of the traditions of the south that the Democratic party is the white man's party and the Republican party is the Negro party. It is not only a tradition of the past, but a fact of the present. "We have insisted on the right of the Negro to vote in a Republican primary and as he pleases in a general election. "To exclude the Negro from the Republican party to make from the white Klansmen who provide him for the right of affiliation and the right of franchise. "We believe in being fair and honest in politics as in other things. Subterfuge and deception are reprehensible. "Church is the head of the Republican party in this county. He ranks higher than J. Will Taylor in the state. His influence in the Republican party is more extensive in the south than any man, white or black. "Why muddy the water? Why attempt to deceive anybody? If the Republican party continues in control. Church will continue to be head of the party in Tennessee." Turn To Page 10 If You Want An Automobile To Be Given You FREE! $6,000 IN FREE PRIZES!

Roberts' Four Wives Another precedent which might be used against Mr. DePriest is the case of Brighain H. Roberts. It was charged against him that he had four wives and was the cause of taining many relations with all of his house. House refused to permit him to take the oath. Eventually he was excluded from the body. There are, however, two views. One is that neither house is limited in determining qualifications of its members by the requirements of the Constitution as to age, citizenship and residence, but that it may go beyond and ascertain whether he has been guilty of conduct criminal in character or of an actual crime which qualifies him from sitting as a member. The Other View—Wilkes Case The other view is that the word "qualifications" means the legal qualifications which are carefully prescribed in the Constitution. Those who take this view hold that the electorate has the right to select a representative it sees fit irrespective of intellectual and moral qualifications. This view is supported by a long line of precedents beginning with the famous John Wilkes case in England. Wilkes was a lawyer who became a preacher in court. He had his day in court, had been convicted and imprisoned for libelous attacks upon the Ministers of the Crown, for insults to the King and for an outrageous act upon women, which was a direct attack on very decent man and woman. He had failed to pay his debts, had become a fugitive from justice, had killed more than one man in a duel, and for sons, was conscripted as a representative of sufficiency could send to the House of Commons. The People Rule "Nevertheless, the House of Commons finally held that, if the people of Middlesex wanted Mr. Wilkes to represent them in the House of Commons, that was their right and that the House of Commons could not sit in judgment upon suchcision. For this reason, the expunged the record of expulsion and recognized the right of the people of Middlesex to select their own representative, no matter how unwisely they exercised the right."

Ross, principal, has organized three art clubs by means of which the pupils' natural creative tendencies may be developed and their feeling for art expressed. 139 is the boy's Junior High School, and the work selected is that which has an appeal to them. There is a design club which meets every Thursday to study the principles of design and their application to the decoration of trays, book-ends, box covers and other smaller objects. On Tuesday, a Poster Club is busy making posters pertaining to the various phases of school life, athletics, thrift, special holidays; and a third club is making pottery. This group is beginning with a study of primitive African pottery, in connection with which the African Hall in the Museum of Natural History and the African Room in the 135th Street Branch of the Public Library are used to secure sketches and suggestions. The boys are so enthusiastic over the work that they have stayed after school an hour and an hour and a half at each meeting.

While the difference between the sexes is comparatively small that among Negroes and males and among Negroes only did the females out-number the males.

Y.'s Governor Not A Man Made By The Newspaper Artists ELECTION WILL MEAN REAL HOUSECLEANING No Black Marks Against Robinson Except That He Is From Arkansas By LEWIS K. McMILLAN RICHMOND, VA.—Kelly Miller asked a young man a few days ago for whom he was going to vote. Instantly th ansewer came back, "I am for Al Smith. My grand father and father have about paid the old standing debt to the republican party now." He was speaking for more than a few of his fellows. There are many Negroes, young and old, man and woman, for whom Smith has a real hope. He will get tens of thousands of their votes because of who he is and what he has done as a man. At this point in the campaign Hoover has scarcely any genuine boosters. Of course, there are some remnants of the reconstruction politicians. The blind senseless fanatics that they are makes them republicanize and will all conditions. And as for the paid "worried" have had their day and cease to work as a great influence among the people. The results of the present campaign of colored "leaders" already give promise of failure. If Hoover is elected a continued catering to the pagan prejudices of the boastful voters is to change the political complexion of the c untry not by new principles and vital issues but by old tricks and primitive appeals. On the other hand if Smith is elected it is feared that the democratic south will have another chance at the Negro. "If Smith can guarantee that he will live four years in the South, no one should have mind at all," he has come to be a rather familiar expression. The south has been very cruel to the Negro. It has damned him to an inferior position because of inferior opportunity. It has barred him from manhood, it has barred him with man treatment at home southern们 have tried hard to spread the spirit throughout the country. In suite of his claim to the contrary the southern white man has little of the opportunity. He suspects him and in many cases hates with bitter hatred. No Black Mark Against Robinson It is interesting, however, that no one has yet been able to find a black mark against Senator Robinson's record. The one charge against him is the effect of the charge loses much of its force in that Robinson is an intelligent high grade sort of a southerner, and, as one puts it, "He is at least one those mild southerners, who, though he may entertain ideas common to his section, has the decency and good sense to remain quiet in the midst of the explosions of their hearts, and the presence of son of the south and especially of the state of Arkansas creates a problem in the mind and feeling of the Negro. House Cleaning Considering all things the best interests of the Negro are involved in the success of Governor Smith and the democratic party. In the first so-called job, he began cleaning in Negro leadership. Turkegee has prostituted its unearned power too long already. Its secretary is one of the leaders among the Hoover forces and its principal declared though inactive supporters. With the election of Smith the Tuskegee gang will be finally destroyed, an achievement a decade of a century ago. The Tuskegee has been voted for all the southern state schools. Her principals, though narrow, reactionary and selfish, have been the chief spokesmen for the race in most important reaching matters. Both parties alike have listened to them. But never Few Errors The democratic committee has made a few errors. It should never have organized a separate colored headquarters. Foresight here would have won many votes for the party. Smiths Record Smiths record, his personality, his platform have an appeal to the Negro that is deeper and higher race. He has had a natural growth, and in the face of hardships, he fought and opposed on grounds of pure prejudice, but has won the acclaim of the people. He is real — he is human. Newspaper artists have not been called in to make a man for the Negro. In his picture one senses a ring of underness; he also deals with fundamentals. Like Glass, of Virginia, and Daniels, of North Carolina, the old type Negro can hardly copure the spirit of the Nominine; attraction is for the new Negro who can live and choose beyond prejudice and outlive sentimental tradition. In that there are so fewold democrats among the race, Smith will have every reason for lining up. Even should Robinson become president the Smith influence will continue. Besides Northern democrats will be in power. Besides Northwestern part of Robinson would help the Negro; the reaction would be so great. New Faces Nothing would be of greater benefit in interracial relations at this point than the two. Into power new faces and new spirits. Unscrupulous and ignorant Negro politicians are surely in part responsible for the bad spirit which exists in the south. Robinson together white southerners working with Negroes will make a great change in Dixie in the next four years. Changing His Vote Above all else the Negro needs to acquire the habit of raising his vote with issue and personalities. The institution of Smith will not work miracles, but it will afford the beginning of the preparation of Negroes to participate in future political conflicts as men and not Negroes as champions of cause and or hirings. They are interested in the election of Governor Smith.

Third—All debts are measurable. Nobody not even Germany recognizes the right of others to impose never ending reparations. When is the debt to be paid? Fourth—Will the Bishop accept the late President Harding's advice to the Negro to cease being a one party citizen as a release, or what sort of quit claim does he require?

Wooer Hoover Candidate Hoover wooed the South in his speech at Elizabethtown, Tennessee, last Saturday. He began by telling his southern audience that "we people of the west" have the same hearts, the same kind of homes, newspapers and radio. Mental and physical frontiers. Mr. Hoover went further. He recalled that his earliest ancestor settled first in Maryland then migrated to North Carolina. "In a sense I have common heritage with you." Democrators who have long voted that ticket were wooded to come over on the G. O. P. side. Said he:— "So closely wooed in common interest are the pressing issues of our nation today that it should be no longer unusual for a Citizen of any region to vote for a President who represents the principles which correspond with his ooded the South in his Tennessee, last Saturday.

He began by telling his southern audience the people of the west' have the same hearts, the same kind of homes, newspapers and radio. Mental and physical frontiers are gone. Mr. Hoover went further. He recalled that his earliest ancestor settled first in Maryland then migrated to North Carolina. "In a sense I have a common heritage with you." Democrats who have long voted that ticket were wooed to come over on the G. O. P. side. Said he: "So closely welded in common interest are the pressing issues of our nation today that it should be no longer unusual to citizen of any region to vote for a President who represents the principles which correspond with his ideals. Candidate Hoover discusses farm relief, prohibition, tariff and then restates a paragraph from his speech of acceptance which southern white claim infers that he will not appoint Negroes to office in the South. This is the paragraph: "I believe in the merit system of the Civil Service and I believe further that appointive duties must be filled by those who deserve the confidence and respect of the communities they serve." Mr. Hoover already told us in his acceptance speech that: specific experience. "It is essential for the proper performance of their duties that officials shall enjoy the confidence and respect of the people with whom they serve." Civil Service examinations already require candidates to formulate photographs so that it can determine if they are white or colored. Mr. Hoover proposes now that every applicant for presidential appointment shall also procure letters of recommendation. With such a proposal, which is bound to operate the disfairness test in the South, it difficult to harmonize the candidate's next statement:— "All legislation, all administrative action, must stand the supreme test that it provide equal opportunity for all our citizens, not for any special group." After all where does Mr. Hoover, wooer of Dixie voters, stand on the equal opportunity for all people? Like the ancient parson who numbers the points of his sermon from one to one hundred—the more he unfolds his text, the more he folds it up. Neval Thomas Makes Correction. The Pew Research.

I have visited the Crownville hospital for colored insane, with provisions for 750 patients, the Henryton Sanitarium for 160 tubercular colored, the House of Commons at Jussips and Bellmore. In all these state-supported agencies I have found what satisfies me as a sincere effort to do the fair thing by the inmates. Since Governor Ritchie came into office in 1920 the annual appropriations for the state were increased from $10,000 to $47,000, besides special sums of $110,000 for buildings and plant. During the same period the annual appropriations for Morgan County have been increased to $125,000 and a bond issue of $125,000 for building and plant was authorized by the present Legislature. 3.

Because the Maryland Senators and Representatives in the United States Congress (7 Democrats and Republicans) have generally been broad and liberal on national issues, including the appropriations for Howard University and for the public schools of the District of Columbia.

February 24, 1928, that defeated the proposition to close the public schools of Washington to the school. In Prince Georges County, in which Boat Harbor is located, the Democratic Party, has built in the last seven years, 60 modern school rooms with a seating capacity of 2,400 chairs for colored children, has increased the school term from 10 weeks to 14 weeks, has increased the MacArthur Highland Park and Leland (the latter two beijing buildings with all modern improvements) and is spending this year $107,000 on programs for the Republican administration that the present board succeeded seven years ago. 4.

Hypocritical Republican Party Losing Votes by thousands, Not On Account of Wet and Relation Questions. To the Editor: One of our dailies states that G. O.

A hippocrite is but a hypocrite matter. We are not the ones who knows. Wet or dry, 'tis all the same. The people are drinking right on.

O. feecions are due to unpleasant questions we face. I fear it has overlooked the greatest cause. The lack of keeping faith on part of the G. O. P. with the Negro, who has stumblers, is a major problem. A hypocrisy is a hypocrite no matter of sect. The G. O. P. has had them of all kinds. Wet or dry, all the same. We have grown beyond such narrowness as religious tolerance or such a wholesale graft and farce as prohibition. We are neither of these, but just that a fit to resent the action to make an ass of him strengthened, free, thinking after generation sees for the next years, that they made a passage through our parents, that they made a passage through our eyes, and govern independently our own minds, refusing any longer to be led to the altar for slaughter by as big a set of traitors as Judas No. It is neither of these, but just that a fit to resent the action to make an ass of him strengthened, free, thinking after generation sees for the next years, that they may not be able to look now through our own eyes, and govern independently our own minds, refusing any longer to be led to the altar for slaughter by as big a set of traitors as Judas ever did, loses faith in a parent who constantly promises and never gives. So we as a race refuse to be guided and led any longer by promises. For fifty years we have been used and cast as worthless, but never again. Our slogan—come up or shut up shall be ever before us. We do not mean for the G. O. P. to hold us in one hand and the ku klux and "nigger" bugaboo in the other; we cannot candidly treat a grown beyond this. We will be as strong in faith as our grandparents when the G. O. P. proves itself all that the name implies. Until then we will resort to any honest treatment, not the treatment as American citizens. Jim Crow cars running into the seat of our government; ku klux marching through its streets; such bills as Dyer-Allyn Lynching being tabled so often at the end of each term, that it is a wonder When the party feels itself weakened by thousands of votes, do not accuse it to narrowness of any kind; but just let it for its narrowness realize the message longer than we eye blindsaying the word "Lincoln," but that his sight now is stronger and he sees the pitfalls and is side-tracking. Living in the same age of independence and living in the other races, he means to act accordingly even when it comes to using his franchise. MRS. AVONIA D. BROWN Here's A Good Suggestion for a Non-Partisan Political Debate. To the Editor: In the appearance of so much apathy during a presidential campaign, I would suggest that the AFRO-AMERICAN make arrangements for a debate on the political issues, to be held in Baltimore. There seems to be a difference of opinion as to the best way for the Negro to use his ballot and the advice of paid political workers only makes the situation more confused. A debate by personnel would create great interest and cause people to do some thinking. If you accomplish no more than this you would have made progress. What of the things that might be discussed? Is it better to vote for men and measures rather than party? Is it wise for the Negro to divide his vote between political parties? tween the different parties on principle for a candidate of one of the smaller parties, where the candidate has no chance of being elected, the Negro win or lose? Has the Negro made the best of his right to franchise, by voting for one party or all of a permanent, political organization of their own, would it be easier by cooperation in the various state to elect Negroes to the State Legislatures and to Congress?

To The Editor: If a Catholic could govern successfully for New York, why not give the old Catholic a chance to preside over the nation for at least four years? To my idea, Smith possesses all those qualities that make up an ideal president. He stands for Democracy and equality. He means to enforce the 18th Amendment, which as it now stands, is more demoralizing and more destructive than was the flood in the days of Noah. To you who opposed Smith because of his profession, I advise you to search the Constitution from the list to the 18th Amendment and after learning that it is Constitutional for a Catholic to rule the nation, I am sure you will then say within yourself: "I have lost my reason?" If God says a Catholic can enter the kingdom why not man say he can enter the Presidency? The nation will be doing fine if Smith occurs Dedication of Provident Recalls Philanthropy of Early Pioneers. Mr. Editor: "Recognition of the new Provident hospital last Sunday, recalls an item of historic value of special significance in the light of this recent achievement. More than one hundred and fifty patients, in certain Negroes in the West India Island reflected the shadow of coming events. From an old history in my possession, published about the year 1800, the following brief paragraphs are "The philanthropists of England, take pleasure in speaking of the good and religious Joseph Rachel, who having become rich and commercial, gave up his position of chief benefactor. The unfortunate whatever was his colour had a claim upon his affections. He gave to the indigent, lint to those who could not make a sacrifice, to the poor and the endowed to bring back the guilty virtue. He died at Bridgentown, in 1788, equally lamented by blacks and whites." "Jasmin Thoumazeau was born in Africa in 1714. He was sold at St. Domingo in 1763. Having been a slave and a Negress of the Golden Coast, and in 1768, established a hospital at the Cape, for poor Negroes and mulattos. During more than 40 years he and his wife, Anne, were the most successful fortune subserviator to their wants. The only pain they felt, in the midst of those unfortunate, who were solaced by their charity, arose from the idea that after their death, Joseph Rachel would be the Philadelphia Society at the Cape, and the agricultural society at Paris, decreed medals to Jasmin, who died near the close of the century." It is pleasant, indeed, to think of those early parishioners from Africa, reflecting the inherent and strong possibilities of incarnate love of our racial stock. GEORGE F. BRAGG Glory Be. Here's A Man Who Has Found the Birthplace of Frederick Douglass. To the Editor: I paper some time ago that someone was asking about the real birthplace of Frederick Douglass. Through careful study, I have succeeded in locating it. I have been collecting stories about his place of birth. I have a book written by himself, 1845, giving the name of his mother and the man who owned his mother, which and the place is standing today, very well known. Frederick Douglass was a captain of a boat which sailed the Chopank河 river. I also conversed with one of Talbot's oldest citizens, who knew Frederick, and closely related to the Lloyds, who it is, said, owned Douglass. He corroborated my statements with books and data to prove his birthplace. I visited them 5 years ago. At the historical place, he was not born at Wye House, the Lloyd's plantation about 10 miles from Easton, on Wye river, but about 11 miles northeast of Easton. I visited the plantation and who owned his mother at the time of his birth. His father, he does not mention in his autobiography. GEO. HERMAN GOLDSBOROUGH, Easton, Md., Box 265. Glaring Searchlight Is to Be Turned On Political Leaders of Both Parties, This Boston Reader. To the Editor: What I have learned from first hand information and experience about political leadership I have come to the conclusion that the race can never expect to receive the desired consideration for the nomination. The experience of its first borough of political leaders who are unquestionably crooked. I can appreciate the fact that it will do much damage to print the truth about political leadership. The experience is ever attempted by a race paper it will be done with reluctance. Nevertheless, we should have the truth. Some ten or more years ago I heard you use the following words: Wahr oblegte dich. If you were sincere when you chose those words you can well afford to act accordingly now. If the editor does not feel disposed to criticize our political leadership it might be of interest to him. If you were sincere when you chose the glaring searchlight of exposure is going to be turned on the politician in a national publication of merit, where both white and colored may be represented by politicians in this enlightened age and period to sell their race in American politics.

The Republican party's payroll for workers in every presidential race and for the names of political leaders who were working for a "fat" salary. Not one dollar of this money paid out comes from the Negro in the form of campaign money and money with which has been and is today, generous with political leadership. So much so, that even the Democrats have decided to "pay off" a few in the present. Now, the respected Editor of the AFRG AMERICAN, or any of the readers of his paper can tell me how the race can expect an outcome from the November party, a major part of which a strife of political leaders is the controlling factor. race a secondary consideration.

Working every day and some nights, it is necessary to pass thru a telephone, a telephone, which of course, brings to my sight and attention many things. the most of which do not concern me frequently, are noticed but not molested. But somehow, I would like for Linotype to answer me one easy, simple question: How come on nearly every day, I am fed? or late, there can be seen gentlemen of leisure in no small numbers and the most of whom are well-dressed and apply to me. I want to know how do they do it? Somebody told me that work was scarce in Baltimore and that I needed to look for jobs, which may be true, but there is one thing certain, this city has ever so many men who are appalled by running, to find the jobs that are said to be scarce. Taint much of my business, as I said, I am not sure how to await work, and the only way to await work, and the only question I am asking is how? Just give me the recipe: I may not try it, but will certainly use it. Some folks have fortunes left to them, others have made investments, a few are on the pension list and still fewer have saved money enough to include a game, a game killing time, but to save my life can't conceive how all of the idle to around this town are included. I have never been taught that work is valuable, and yet it appears that is profitable — at least if it is silent. It must be an art for me, for it is my bread, meat, and COLGATE UNIV ACCEPTS COLOR LINE OF DIXIE Two Members Of Football Team To Stay Home From Southern Tour VANDERBILT AND VA.

Race Prejudice In France and England (Richard T. Lapliers in Social Forces) Mr. Lapliere examined hundreds of individuals and a number of hotel proprietors in both countries and has tabulated their responses. Out of 360 people questioned in various parts of France, exclusive of the Scaport Towns, Bordeaux and Marseilles, only 9 admitted race prejudice, 72 were doubtful and 279 had no race prejudice against Negroes. Of 31 hotel proprietors questioned in France 24 said they would admit well-behaved colored people. "The fact that, with the exception of tourist hotels whose policy is adjusted to foreign, not French, attitudes, 'french hotel proprietors do not discriminate against people' Mr. Lapliere, 'certainly indicates that the French people as a whole are not adverse to associating, at least internally, with dark-skinned people." In England Mr. Lapliere found a relatively much higher degree of race prejudice, 214 out of 315 people questioned, and 100 out of 315 being doing good and only - without it, of 20 Englisa hotel proprietors questioned, only 4 would admit Negroes. 10 Commandments In New Form (From the Holy Bible—A new translation by James. Moffatt.) God spake all these words. "I am the Eternal, your God, who brought you from the land of Egypt, that slave-pen. You shall have no gods but me. You shall not carve any idols for yourselves, the shape of anything in heaven above or on the earth below or in the sea, you shall not bow down to them nor worship them, for I the Eternal, your God, a: a jealous God, punishing children for the sins of their fathers, punishing those who hate me down to the third and fourth generation, but showing kindness to thousands of those who love me and obey my orders. You shall not use the name of the Eternal, your God, profanely, for the Eternal will never acquit anyone who uses his name profanely. Remember to hold the sabbath sacred. Six days you may labour on the sabbath, and seven days the sabbath in honour of the Eternal, your God, and on it you must do no business, neither slave, male or female, nor your cattle, nor the alien who is among you: for six days the Eternal made sky the sabbath, and the contain, and then he rested on the seventh day; therefore the Eternal blessed the sabbath and made it a sacred day. Your father and your mother, that you may have a long life in the land which the Eternal, your father, and your mother, shall not murder. You shall not commit adultery. You shall not steal. You shall not falsely evidence against a fellow-countryman. against a fellow-countryman. You shall not covet a fellow-countryman's household; you shall not covet a fellow-countryman's wife, nor anything else. You shall not lox, nor his ass; nor anything that belongs to a fellow-countryman." DAY BY DAY Which Is Correct? BY WILLIAM N. JONES Are We Approaching A Shortage of Men? An article in the "Cardinal's Notebook", school paper of Cardinal Gibbons Institute, cardinal Industries School, which Vic Robert is developing down in St. Mary's County, Md. raises the question of the fear of a man shortage. This school year, according to the report, 28 colored schools in this county produced just seven boys in their graduating class. THAT IS JUST ONE FOURTH A MONEY BOY FOR EACH SCHOOL. This situation exists in the rural district, but figures in city schools show as evident disparity between education of boys and girls in班课 classes of any high school or college doing co-educational work and make a mental picture of what the surplus girls will be doing in class, so back mothers concerned themselves as to what will happen to girls while they are growing up but today, social problem grounds around a question of simple arithmetic it is plain that more girls are making the grade in educational endeavor and that special attention disaster for boys who reach maturity unprepared; but it also works a hardship on girls who reach maturity prepared, but with prospects of mating with prepar- Many of the most serious domestic questions today are wrapped up in this fact. Down in the news is County the Cardinal Gibbs Institute is making an effort to bring the boy quota up to the same standard as that of girls and if this problem can be solved in the rural section can be solved in the city with determined and efficient leadership Playground Spaces A movement on the part of Daniel Ellison, Republican leader in the City Council, acting for residents in the Hampster section, have the property of the Falls Road which the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals bought for a dog shelter, and add it to Roscoe Park, brings to the office of outlying and inly-play spaces. While the Hampden movement is purely a local question, it serves well to illustrate what some people believe they can do on city parks funds, also calls attention to policy of the Park and to expand large sums on outlying recreational centers for the use of automobile owners, while the people in the congested areas, who ride street cars and therefore usually pay the park tax, must go without practical playground facil- In the Northwest section, for instance, where 90 per cent of the children must spend their time in the radius bounded by the school and their homes, there is a woeful lack of playgrounds for the congested bodies of colored people have been urging the Park Board to provide playgrounds for the congested bodies of colored people has been done in this direction so far, although the program and policy of extending outward has not been done. There are some definite facts about the administration of both the collection and expoitation of the bodies of tacking this tax onto street car fares, it places the burden of park maintenance directly on the white and colored citizens who ride car fares. At least 90 per cent of the children can only avail themselves of the days and holidays. The real need is for playgrounds in the immediate neighborhoods of the bulk of child life and available seven days a week. In some respects the question becomes one of simple honesty in appropriation of public funds for special road taxes BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO USE THE ROADS. Street car riders are taxed for a special park tax and at present the tax is being spent for outlying parks SOME OF WHICH ARE AVAILABLE ONLY BY AUTO. At least half of this money should be spent for inviting play spaces. Will Church Call Off His Dogs? If you want to become interested in the most unusual editorial published in any white newspaper last week, you can see the cover of this paper in which the great Memphis, Tennessee, "Commercial Appeal," one of the South's best known newspapers, editorialized on Robert R. Church of that city. This editorial, like some trick pictures, has the illusion of being one thing when read casually, but as you approach its deeper meaning, you see a bullet, but entire different viewpoint. After calling attention to the fact that Church has earned the place as head of the Republican party, Shelly Tennant, Tennessee, this paper devides the efforts of lily whites, and "pure white" Democrats, to unhorse him, declaring that there can be no Jim crow Republican party in Tennessee. The editorial even acceses his ability and that he is the most influential Republican, white or black, in the South. How far is so good. But here comes the fly, the ointment, "After taking the reader upon the mountain like Satan took Christ, and showing him the promise land, it asks him to fall down and be swept away. It is one of the traditions of the South that the Democratic party is a white man's party and the During Governor Smith's four terms of office, the Democratic organization of New York has been appointed to the positions of Negroes: A Civil Service Commissioner; an Attorney Vice Commissioner; an Assistant Attorney General; an Attorney; a Commissioner of Decedent Estates. Waver Clerk in the State Department, a Deputy Attorney, a Deputy Veterans; several Deputy Sheriffs; four members of School Boards; Board of Health Inspectors; a Supervisor of Health Inspectors; a Harlem Hospital Staff composed almost entirely of Negro physicians; and over five hundred appointments, principally of teachers, in the Negro community, including one Fire Leutenant. The liberal treatment of the Negro by Tammany Hall is a fact of history among Negroes throughout the country. "Africans have much in common with their proverbs show. It is time for us to get away from the notion that they in the war inflicted and barbated in more than one sense, we Americans are less civilized and more barbarian than they." C. J. BENDER AFRICAN PROVERB THIS WEEK Death treats all men alike. Republican party of negro party." Republican party a "legend party." To understand this statement you will have to go back two years ago when widen the strategy of the Church organization in Memphis, 6,000 Negro voters, registered as Democrats, almost all southern town by becoming the balance of power in a county and municipal election. The editor of the "Commercial Appeal" would gladly turn over the reins of the coffeeship party the deceased held power and glor- in the G. O. P. if he will but "call off his dog" in local Democratic affairs. New Strategy And New Party Alignments Nothing will suit the reactionary element in the South so much that it will produce alignment for white and colored people. Nothing would help to emancipate the Negro from the bondage so much that it would do quickly as a tearing loose of white from a solid and unbendable democracy and tearing loose of white from a solid and unbendable which feels that it can count on him whether it blows hot or cold There is, of course, now little defacto difference, so far as big issues are concerned, between the Republican and Democratic parties. This campaign shows, for instance, a wet democratic candidate depending upon the vote of a dry South and a wet urban and middle west for his success, with his campaign being led by a protective tariff capitalist opposing a party whose very life has been based upon capitalism and the principal of protection of American industries. It also shows a Republican candidate who won fame by handing out a helping hand to European nations, now preaching a closed door to immigrants when the past glory of the party he represents grew out of opening these same immigrant doors that hordes of labor would be available for capitalistic exploitation, and keeping wages "right." And in this scramble, mess comes the Negro, seeking solace from a Republican party which is trying to boot him out in the hope that it will gain more white votes and a democratic party which wavers between liberalization and time-worn traditions. The only safeguard strategy for the Negro to pursue is to assimilate himself into the community and thereby eliminate himself as a real issue. What has made Robert R. Church the power he has become in the South has fought his battles with the rains and fought them mainly in the South. Down there is where the real Negro program is being implemented. Commercial Appeal story and you will agree that there is a profound sense of humor in an editor who can make such a subtle appeal to a race leader to call off his dogs. Will Church do it?

Amsterdam* Last week's AFRO-AMERICAN published an article by Commissioner Perdinand O Morton, entitled "Why I'm For Smith. Some that I know are wrong." Mr Morton is for Smith because he holds a high-salaried job under Tammany Hall. But apart from that, Mr Morton makes about as good an argument for the Negro's vote for him as he made, which is savoring very little. What encouragement has the Negro from the Democrats in the press nominated a man who in his four terms as Governor had never appointed a Negro to office, the opportunity for the reason that it might make it possible to elect a Negro magistrate, and at no time in his public life has ever uttered a word of friendliness or encouragement to the Negro.

Neighborhood Gossip Blamed In Death Of 21 Year Old Girl Found Dead With Bullet Thru Her Heart Race Vote To Swing To "Al" By Thousands Says Ohioan G. O. P. Under Hoover Has Cast Negro Aside Like An Aged Sheik Divorces A Faithful Wife For A Vamp PLEASANTVILLE, N. J. — Prohibited from keeping company with the young man of her choice, mentally ill because of lying tongues of her own sex, the controlling of her salary by the household, and modern thoughts on how a public servant, especially a school teacher should appear, are thought to have been the reason Hilda Fields, a year old educator, was daughter and Mrs. W. T. Fields; 1207 Columbia avenue, took her own life. Sunday afternoon Hilda sat at the piano and played "Down At The Cross", and "Nearer My God To Thee", with such affectuation until everyone in the house except her father cried. On morning she left Pleasantville about 6 A.M. She was telling a girl friend of what she intended to do. The girl made no effort to communicate to Mrs. Fields. At 11 A. M., Hilda was seen driving in a circle out in Brigantine. GOLUMBUS, O.-Race Republicans in the south are swinging to Al Smith by the thousands, according to Dr. Joseph L. Johnson, former Minister to Liberia. The reason is the Hoover program to make the G. O. P. in the south "illy white." Mr. Johnson said: "The Republican party in the South, particularly in the States of Kentucky and Tennessee, never had a Republican victory except for the colored vote in those states. Since the war of the rebellion the Republicans have carried Kentucky several times, and the Republican foured Republican governors. Each time it was accomplished by the colored vote, which if it had been given to the other side, would have turned the election the other way. In Tennessee "In Tennessee, the Republicans have carried that state for President once, and they have elected the governor several times, besides numerous members of Congress, and other local officers. In Louisville, Kentucky, it is a well-known fact that, but for the colored vote this city could be Democratic overwhelmingly. "Now in return for all this local service, these loyal soldiers of the Republican party who have helped them win all their victories, are to be put aside like a faithful wife who is put aside for some trivial reason and is an idol of the bride of the nation that have sustained for half a century. I can imagine the Methodist and Baptist preachers of the colored people in the south reading this news with great pleasure, and I can imagine how enthusiastically they will preach to their congregations to vote for Hoover, who they are; nothing more than the Democratic Democrats Nothing. "The Democratic party in the south owes nothing to the colored vote because they have never given their votes to the Democratic party, but the Republican party, which has always received its vote, now proves its base ingratitude by allying with the movement of the party in any participation in the councils of the Republican party. In The North "The Republican party managers in the National Committee are perfectly willing to throw overboard the colorado vote if the colored vote was removed from the Republican column in New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Ohio, Indiana, West Virginia, Illinois, Missouri, Oklahoma, and many states in the country, they would have absolutely no show whatever." Will Desert "What do you think the colored people of the north are going to say when they hear that the Republican party and its candidate for President have deliberately entered into a scheme to cast the colored voters overboard in the southland?" "I miss my guess if hundreds of thousands are not present this, in the south, but in the north by casting their votes with the Democratic party headed by Governor Alfred E. Smith."

THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1928 - School authorities inquired if she intended coming n. They were told that Hilda left for school quite early. The state police said Tuesday that Tuesdays her lifeless body was found. A revolver was in her hand, the bullet had split open her heart. It is recalled that upon one occasion Fields had fired the same revolver out of the window of her br.1 room. An unopened note to her mother is causing much interest. Because she was seen with one girl friend more than with others, women friends said the girl had a "female lover". Hilda never knew that Christian women left their dishes undone and gossiped over the back fence about her. In fact she would never believe that members of her church, where she was organist, sang songs of hate while she played sacred hymns of Christ's Atonement. MORE AFRO CAMPAIGN Continued from Page One AMERICAN'S $6,000 "Everybody Wins" automobile and cas prize campaign. By the time the candidates' names are published again next week there will be many more names in this list, which will be many changes in the published vote totals due to the fact that many of those names appear now with only the 10,000 nomination votes to their credit will have started turning in subscriptions which will bring them away up above the 100,000 vote class. When a new contest enters the AFRO'S great campaign with just one yearly subscription, he or she starts off with 130,000 votes which includes the 10,000 nomination votes, the extra 100,000 votes for the first subscription and their egular 20,000 votes allowed during the First Period of the yearly subscription. See the table of votes in the big page advertisement in this issue. Notice how quickly just a few subscriptions will put anyone among body else in the list. Just think—the leaders or away ahead of every one-year subscription count 20,000 votes while every one-year subscription is worth 20,000 votes and each one-year subscription allows a total of 200,000 votes. There's plenty of time for new candidates to enter and win either the $2,870 Franklin Sedan, the $1,015 Oldsmobile Sedan or the $695 Durant Sedan. By entering now, they have an equal full week of the present First Period BIG VOTES—two more weeks in which the greatest number of votes are given for every subscription secured. That starts early—so you get the fullest advantage of the BIG VOTES. Easy To Get Subscriptions Compared to the single copy of the AFRO, it is real economy to subscribe in advance by the year at the low rate of $2.50 per year. The subscriber makes a sea salt dish, knowing that the old-reliable AFRO will come to his home regularly every week for the full length of time he has paid for. For thirty-seven years this great newspaper has been dependable, newsy and dominant in its wide field. Therefore the AFRO makes subscription getting easy. Everyone knows the superior excellence of the paper. Contestants are permitted to secure subscriptions from any place in the United States, all at the low rate of $2.50 per year. If you make a list of your friends and acquaintances now you'd find that almost all of them would cheerfully give you $2.50 for 52 issues of the AFRO. Many will want to subscribe for more than a single year. **Subscription** Votes alone will win these three brand's best model automobiles. There is no other way to get them. Subscriptions mean votes and votes mean owning either this beautiful $2,870 Franklin Sedan, or the $1,015 Oldmobile Sedan or the $695 Durant Sedan, in just short weeks from this Sunday night. It will worth a little of your spare time in getting votes to be the winner of a prize worth $2,870 — or $1,015 — or $695?

PHILLY THEATRES By ERNEST VARLACK McIntyre and Heath's "Headin' South", a musical revue of the sunny southland, is a somewhat feeble contribution in musical comedy.

The white woman was very enthusiastic in their praise of this youngster, stating that in time she would be another Florence Mills. "GOLDEN DAWN" People seem never to tire of "Golden Dawn," an operetta. It appears to be better than it was when presented last year in this city. A group of singers supply all that can be desired in the way of harmony. PEARL PLAYERS At the Pearl the Pearl Players are delving into the mysteries of melodrama.

New Race Musical Comedy In London NEW YORK,"--"Virginia," a spectacular musical comedy, presented by Herbert Clayton and Jack Waller, opens on the 24th at the Empire Cardiff prior to its London opening at the Palace on the 8th. Its reception was phenomenal. Expressive notes were most flattering. In the company are Jimmy Ferguson, dancer; Walter Richardson, singer, and Cora La Redd, popular entertainer from the Cotton Club. La Redd, marvelous bronze dance, simply did not go over so big. Richardson's singing was well received while Ferguson was acclaimed by the critics in the highest terms. Edgar Wallace, Play on the Express, said "Caesar is Jimmy Ferguson, every inch of whom dances His coloured comedy cannot be criticized." The following letter is Mr. Ferguson's account of the opening: "My show opened last night, and what a show! A tremendous success! I've never seen a show do what this one did last night. When the time came, the audience sat in their seats and would not go out until we had taken fifteen curtains, and three speeches had been made, and still they applauded. I used my big shoes as I never used them before. I was so amazed at ovation was so big that it drowned out the band in the pit. They wouldn't let us do the talking scene until I danced again. Walter Richardson, the singer, also was a tall man. "Aw, Clouds" a wonderful number that, was written for him."

Earl Dancer, former manager of Ethel Waters, announced that Corey Miss Cora Green, former member of the Dancer and Green vaude- ville team. No date has best; set for the wed- In Dancer's statement to the AF. FO reads: After reading this week's issue of your paper, it was amusing to find headlines on your theatrical page titled "Who will be Earl Dancer's New Partner?" I think I am not proud to answer this question, but to announce my coming wedding to Miss Cora Green, who I know and I am sure that you agree is the cause of any success. I have had or may have as a producer, nine years ago Miss Green discarded me as an artist in Francisco at the Mapps, in China, and tried to show the possibilities of coming East. "We came to New York, booked out the Keith office and worked as Dancer & Green for 2 years and a half; and then Miss Green was starred in Creamer & Layton's "Strut Miss Lizzie" which had a Broadway run of four months. "Later I opened a night club in Harlem where I met Miss Waters, who I could see had all the makings of becoming a great artist. After negotiations I became Miss Waters' manager, and after great effort, I received booking out of the Keith office as Dancer & Waters. Later I starred in my own productions, "Vanities", "Miss Calho" and Africana." "I cannot understand why I have been questioned so much about Miss Waters, even the Shuberts, Ziefeld George White and other mannequins, release their stars on the class of contracts. "From the comments of the press this week, I feel that "Deep Harlem", my show which is played constantly pruning at a Broadway run, is the greatest work I have ever attempted in my life and I owe my inspiration and success of this production largely to the help of my future wife, Miss Catherine Dancer, 145th & Lenox Ave, Hotel Olga, N.

Montgomery street, in vited twelve of her friends to join the bon voyage. Dearie, Mrs. Walden showed such skill and taste in arranging for the affair that it's no wonder it went off with such a bang. In the first place, a living room and dining room was a picturesque scene with the flowers and fall caves, and then at the luncheon, which was opened in courses, the table center was once a ship placed on a long-marred leased to represent the ocean, and in it the filled tokens appropriate for travel. In each package there accompanied a letter to be read on how arrival at her destination. Other decorations were fast and vors such as handbags, trunks, ships and articles suggestive of travel.

The American homes in keeping with the occasion marked the Cornerstone Laying at 7326 Tioga street on Sunday, 8th and 10th of the 10th of May, and the 30th of the 10th of May, and Elks led the parade from the old church to 753 Tioga street to the new church. Bishop P. J. Wallace was the principal speaker of the church's connection with the cornerstone laying Rev. J. M. Howard is the pastor. Young People's Day was observed at Al-len Chapel A. M. E. Church on Sunday, 8th and 10th of the 10th of May, and the 13th in the afternoon, at which time Miss Rachel Taylor, executive secretary of the Center Avenue Branch Y. M. E. was the principal speaker of the evening which was the main speaker. Miss Pauline Taylor was chairman for the program for the day. The collection of the day was given to the Hughes, who was sent from the arms of our Alma Mater, unwillingly on the campus to part forcefully. I find out that this they love Lincoln more than any other school and they all said they would be lifted. Bernard was singing "The Song Is Ended, But The Melody Lingers On." The song gives his thoughts on the place he loves but not leaving Lincoln's spirit on the campus but with him always. Eleven sophomores, Lincoln misses the Glee Club has had practices for some time and we expect to turn out a very nice musical club this fall to entertain the music lovers of various cities. Now, getting down to the dull lessons which confrems me is this: Why did "Villiam Walker leave Lincoln and come to Baltimore when he read that Ray Porter had hers? Very puzzling. Edith Cardoso came up on the campus to see us battle A. and T. to a scoreless tie and they say he "kicks up" a woman when he lifts a Lincoln破冠—you know what I mean? Theodore Gwalntney has not returned to the campus and we want to say to him how much we miss him and we hope to see him back with us some time in the near future. As I was writing this column the team drove up in front of the "Y" on Druid Hill avenue, and, of course, all work has to be stopped in honor of the men who went down in defeat by the hands of Union, 6-0. Are we discouraged or fear that it will be a repetition of the disastrous 27"? Not is the answer. We have a better team than last year and know it. The boys are getting sleepy in the old room or I might say the Owl's nest and so they won't give any information on the girls or otherwise, so I guess the Bull session is coming to a close, but before we are an asleep let me tell the fair listeners: don't forget to come to the Lincoln's show game on our campus next Saturday, the thirteenth. In our next "Bull Session" I will tell you about the boys and their weaknesses and also the Lincoln Dance at Baltimore Christmas Watch for its progress. Girls, you had better carpetbag the Baltimore Lincolnites if you want an invitation—a fair warning in time. Now shouldn't you be grateful?

Of course there is plenty of time for new contestants to enter and win even the biggest prizes in the list—the $2,870 Franklin Sedan, the $1,015, Oldsmobile Sedan or the $695 Durant Sedan.

These 250,000 votes include the 5,250 votes for the first year, the 100,000 EXTRA votes given for the first subscription and the 140,000 votes for the seven one-year subscriptions. Each one-year subscription counts you 20,000 votes now if you get them in before the present BIG VOTES drop. Even 6,000 votes—each one-year subscription will count you 900,000 votes.

The increase and decrease in percentages are calculated from the tables provided by the Christian Herald of April 14, 1928. Backward In Keeping Pace "What is the cause of this small increase in church membership in view of the larger increase in population and the percentage of this slow growth is due to the fact that the Church has been slow and backward in keeping pace with the changes in the methods. Its methods, in many instances, have been crude and antiquated. In our Home Field, the Home Church would be made known to be to build meeting houses in our far outposts and build up denominational memberships. The preaching of the larger churches is the goal of doctrines of the Methodists, Baptists, Presbyterians and other churches. Church Lives Do Not Count "These churches in their methods and preaching must realize the importance of interdenominational civilization; must make a survey of what is offered to the young outside of the Church and realize that they are not the only young and old for that matter, are less concerned about denominational issues and more concerned about the Christian message that will help them live in the world. The message of teaching men and women to live right, how vast is the field for interdenominational cooperation. In order to achieve objectivity or nocturnal aspects, what vast fields of inter-denominational cooperation are spread out before us. Inter-Church Evangelism "First of all, the field of Evangelism is the sphere of Christian activities can take the place of evangelism. What a long stride will be taken by the Christian churches in a community swallowed up in inter-denominational evangelism; the aim of which is to train men and women, not into the Kingdom of Christ, but into the Kingdom of Christ." Churches Open Daily "In the field of continuous church activity, there is a great area for inter-denominational cooperation. The Church must open eyes to the institutions and profit by these methods. School houses, theatres and play-groups are open almost daily, but the Church is not speaking on Sundays. What a field for denominational cooperation does this offer the churches of various denominations in the same sections of the Church. What a field of the churches of the given community should be open dall' for devotion, for study and for recreation. Community Service "Another field for inter-demonstrational cooperation is an enlarged idea that allows the service to be confined to the rendering of service to members of our own demonstrational group. The service that makes it possible to be confined to blood, for race, or greed. Not Swallowed Up "What I have said above applies to church methods and inter-deminational cooperation of churches in general. The case is further inter-deminational cooperation. Whether we like to admit it or not the fact remains that the Negro Church has not been completely swapped for the Negro Christianity. At present the most we can say is that the enveloping of the Negro Church into American Christianism constitute a particular urge for Negro inter-deminational cooperation. It would consume too much time and would also force us to discuss this at length, but may I not suggest, without discussion, some momentous phases where Negro inter-deminational cooperation is im- Jim Crow At Stores "When the fact is considered that in certain stores of our community it is apparent that Nerro patronage is not wanted, internalizing alone two lines. First, that Nerrooes be urged not to insist on spending their money where it is not wanted. Secondly, interdenominational cooperation along the line of encountering busiest groups among our own racial group. Unemployment Another field in which inter-dominational cooperation is needed is evident when we can connect the involvement of members of our racial group. In needed here, first, to direct our own inter-dominational cooperation people alone in the field of giving faith in others in the fields in which they are now employed; and secondly, in working out means of opening new avenues of employment to members of our race. Teachers Should Help "Sill all other field for inter-dominational cooperation may be seen along the line education. This inter-dominational coopers is the more first, in bringing about the more attitude of parents to our teaching-force. Parents' children impressed to be interested in the teachers and therefore to the almost to keep them in school. Along these educa- tional lines, also, teachers should be impressed that while they should have their own social 'groups', it should be uppermost in their minds that they should serve not only in the school-room but in the commun- Respect For Clergy "There is still another important field in which inter-deminational cooperation becomes imperative and important, and emphatically including the Lalay and especially the Lalay of Protestantism. The field for inter-deminational cooperation is financial and moral support deserved by the clergy. When we consider the most sordid side of the work of the clergy, we have a degree scarcely ever thought of. The Negro Church has not as yet produced among its Laity a sufficient number of laymen with the conscientious time in the financial interests of the Church, however much their individual support. The Negro Clergy, thereafter, have been the financial end of his parish. When it is considered the vast amount of money that the individual investment of the clergy, handle and when it is considered how few defalcations are noted among the clerv, the critically adapted to business be a thing of the past. But when you consider the higher phases of his calling; spiritual advice in the sick-room; financial support in the house of mourning and administering the last funeral rites, his duties become akin to His work; too often adequate financial support in the average laymen consider it condensation to accord the clergy the respect that due his calling. Here is the greatest weaknesses of Protestantism. Respect As A Right Inter-denominational Cooperation therefore, is absolutely necessary to ensure that his indispensable duty to move in that atmosphere which will entitle him to the office of national cooperation is needed also to impress the Lalty that respect for the clergy is not only a duty from the clergy but also a reasonable for the clergy to expect. "If, during the tenure of my office as the Presidine Bishop of the Second Episcopal District I may be able to do my bit in bringing about the suggestions which I have attempted to address, I have having, to some extent, come up to the expectations which you have expressed of me."

Carlton Hat Money Back Guarantee $3.85 and $5.00 EVERY TASTE Costly Errors Cause Taylormen To Drop Opening Series Game, 8-5 The sun was behind the clouds for Luther Farrell, Sunday afternoon, and the big Bacharach moundsman, who had been forcing Fritz Maisel's All-Stars to eat out of his hands for six inings, saw him upstairs and tumble to earth, with the Black Sox looking up helplessly from beneath an 8 to 5 score. 10.000 See Game It was a bitter pill for Farrell to swallow for he had struck out a total of 14 men and there were many among the crowd of 10,000 that james in Maryland and in Maryland who sympathized with him. The "game" took on the proportions of a world's series contest and long before game time disappointed and late patrons were beaten away. Weather conditions were ideal. Mackey's Error Costly Four costly errors, three of them made by Michael Mackey, plainly upset Jeremy's nerves and he became little shaky, issuing eight free passes, five of them coming after that fatal sixth inning. Based on figures the Black Sox excelled their opponents in all departments, for they nicked Eddie Rommel, the 'goat' of last year's series, for a total of 14 hits, while the Stars were touching Farrell for only a half dozen, three of which came in the ninth inning when four runs were scored. Sox Take Lead The Taylormen were the first to score, tallying one marker in the first frame. Holloway opened with a double, advanced to second on Warfield's sacrifice, and scored on Dixon's single. Two more runs were shaded across the pan as Warfield shaded again went to seeon Warfield's sacrifice and came home on "Babe Ruth" Wilson's double, Wilson scoring when Charleson slammed out a double that shook the boards on the centerfield fence Hitless Until Fifth The Maiselmen made their first score and also their first hit in the fifth Thomas and Mooers walked and Bird and Rommel struck out. Bishop's single scored Thomas and Neum closed the game. They came the sixth, the lining that came the downfall of the Westport tossers That Sixth Inning Dick Porter, first man up, popped up an easy fly that was right in Farrell's territory. Mackey, anxious to make the putout, chased after the ball only to have it strike the tip of his glove and fail, the ball sliding up, upset. Moore doubled. Spalding struck out and Thomas smashed out a two-ply blow, bringing Porter and Moore home. Moores was hit and Bird drew a pass, filling the bases. Rommel's sacrifice brought the Moores. Grassad agreed, loading the sacks, but Farrell pulled out of the hole by fanning Neum. Tied in Seventh The Black Sox tied the score at 4-all in the seventh when Warfield scored on Wilson's single and forged ahead to a one-run lead in the eighth when Mackey, after doubling, scored on Lundy's single. Ninth Is Fatal The ninth was the straw that broke the Taylorman's back. Bishop opened by flying out to Charleston who made a brilliant one-hand catch after running back into the crowd that fringed the outfield. Neum went to first on Warfield's error. Porter singled and Moore walked, filling the bases. Maisel, pinch ball for Sapking, laughed a perfect bunt beat it to first. Neum coming home with the tying run. Thomas then singled, bringing Porter and Moore home, and Maisel later scored when Mackey made a wild throw to Lundy in an attempt to catch Thomas stealing second. Rel Holloway and Lundy retired in order in the Sapking of the ninth. Features The game was featured by the hitting and fielding of Thomas Holloway, Charleston, Mackey, Lundy and Taylor. Three double plays were made by the Stars, two with the Bishop-Thomas-Neum combination. Farrell's feat in striking out Lewes's all of the bouts in the major league's short resume of sensation-Sunday. The teams resume their series Sunday. Call Second Game The second game could not be started until after 5 o'clock, due to the crowd swarming out on the field, the game being called at the end of the second 8-1. Oden pitched for the Malselmale and Force and "Rats" Henderson toed the rubber for the Taylor clan. The teams resume their series Sunday.

Playing First College Game Runs 'Force In Style WILBERFORCE, Q.-In a grim gridiron battle that looked like a tie until the last six minutes of the play, the Bluefield Institute "Big Blues", taking advantage of a break to score a safety, defeated Wilberforce here, 2-0, Saturday. Wilberforce had a remade team and did the best she could in trying to stave off the defeats she kept Blake hold off the attacking a touch of Nixon, who had always been a guard, was shifted to the center position and Tynes, who had tackled, was shifted to the backfield. This somewhat broke up Wilberforce well. The game went scoreless up until the last six minutes of play. Bluefield had lost the ball to Wilberforce on the Wilberforce line. Moore, of the Moore line, tried to penetrate Bluefield line but was torn for a loss of three yards. Wilberforce was about to pull off a play but Lucas, who was on the receiving end, left his position soon and the ball fell back across the goal line. Before he could gain his equilibr, a Bluefield man was hit. Both teams put up a good game in running attack, tackling, etc. There was no roughness. Witness force having received the most penalties, twice for holding, once for tackling a faircatcher and six times for Cator, athlete of Haliit, who recently at the Paris stadium, set a new world's record for the broad jump of 7.83 meters. Lucas Is Star Lucas, a 17-year-old lad from Eaton, Ohio, was the outstanding star of the game. This youngster who stands some 5 feet and 4 inches was a demon. Cool headed, versatile, shifty and witty, he wended his way for many yards through Bluefield team. At times he could not be stopped. He was puzzled to Bluefield and could be solved. Only a high school graduate and his first game collegiate circles, not much note as but a ball carrier much note as was evidenced in the game. Collon Plays Great Game Wiggins and Buford bore the burn of the Bluefield attack. Graves, who has always been a topnoter in games with his heavy thrusts through the line, only got away in gains of something like the third and four yards at the greatest. Ward was the other threat of Wilberforce in his kicks and Gallion was the outstanding man for Bluefield as he was in nearly every play.

Mary Catherine MAGAZINE SECTION Does Susie Wooton look worried because she heard the horrid report that she might have to wash and iron for a living instead of simply showing her beauty. You can't tell Susie that stuff and get away, with it. She knows better. What will become of the chorus girl in this mad rush of the talking motion picture magnates to replace vaudeville acts and skits with talking picture acts? In this battle of movies against the stage, where will the show girl end up? That's the question on Pennsylvania avenue, and S. H. Dudley started it all in the AFRO a few weeks ago when he said "Talking pictures are hurting the actor and helping the managers of theatres, for where "talkies" are installed vaudeville and shows are thrown in the discard. "Movietone is new and will draw for a while, more than the ordinary show will, but the novelty will wear off eventually then the actor will come back into his own again and the managers who ousted the actor will have his headache because he will be forced to keep his talking pictures in just the same and it costs him more for pictures. Can he make it pay or is the 'talkie' a good investment in the theatres that have been playing them? "I do believe it a good investment in the movie houses, but where people have been accustomed to seeing the real actor I don't think they will like the taste of canned goods. Of course it will be good for a while, but will it keep?" It would seem so far that there is cloth, veil or simply a smile, met little room in the realm of the "talkies" for the chorus girl, who has beauty of face and figure but is without talent to make a star. She has her place in the revue and creates a background for the big stars and beyond this nothing. It's been her lot to wear the gorgeous creations for the stage we've seen in "Shuffle Along," Irvin Miller shows and "Blackbirds," sometimes she discards almost everything to display her form and dance for the edification of the worn out working man. Who was it that answered the call for nudes a few seasons ago? Who was it that dressed in a loin THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1928 Everybody knows it was the show girl of course. The talkies at the present time are using talent, not beauty of flesh. Will thy drive this pretty creature from the stage? Time will tell. Some say she will survive. Some say she won't, especially in theatres frequented by children. Some say she will be here when talkies are forgotten. Some say they are glad she has been replaced by the talkies, which censor the nudes as well as the dialogue. There's no smut in 'talkies,' these people say. They add that this new theatrical ```markdown ``` Here's the kind of scenery which the "talkies" threatens to put off the boards forever. Where would the bald head now go if it were not for such as these. Here's the kind of scenery which the "talkies" threatens to put off the boards forever. Where would the bald head now go if it were not for such as these. Venture has put the kibosh on vulgar revues for all time. Still others declare she will fill a part, and a large part of the big 'talkies" that are to come. Dudley feels that chorus girls have sex appeal, which talkies lack. Flesh appeals. Talkies haven't yet developed realistic flesh colors. Black and white of the film appeal to the tired working man as much as a wooden dress model. Decided Views Alexander Baksby writing in the "Nation" expresses decided views. He says: "In so far as the talking picture is concerned there can be not the slightest hesitation in saying that it is bound to oust and supplant, in the field of popular entertainment, both the silent picture and the theatre of living actors. The silent picture will give up its present position of dominance simply because the talking one has a more obvious and more easily workable means of carrying dramatic appeal to the audience. "And the theatre of live actors will have to go into retirement because the talking movies, technically developed as they are certain to become in time under the stimulus of competition in the same field of entertainment, will outdo the theatre in all those effects of representation, whether naturalistic or "artistic", which stand for so much in the eyes of the average playgoer. "There is no need to shed tears over the coming substitution of a machine for the live actor. The machine does not dispense with the actor, and is entirely subservient to the will of the artist. But the danger of the machine is that it is just as subservient to the will of any boob who may have enough money to buy it." Here's the kind of scenery which boards forever. Where would the bald as these. THE CHORUS GIRL'S CHIEF ROOTER in music through scholarships and prizes which is all very well, but does not go far enough. The experienced musician today, the senior musician by virtue of his matured technique and power of artistic expression is the musician upon whom the world must depend for its standard. In proportion as he is helped and encouraged in just the same proportion may the country from which he hails enjoy a high musical status in the world. But the reverse seems to prevails. Young artists are being trotted out, heralded and allowed to compete with artists of years of experience. --- Robeson Played, Ribs Busted Musician's Trail By CARL DITON, ANP. "Spiritual" Concerts Concerts consisting of spirituals exclusively are increasing in prominence and it is well to make some definite statements about them. There is not particular harm in such concerts individually but if permitted to become an institution Negro interpretative technique is surely going suffer in the physical sense. No matter how much beautifully word publicity may appear, or how many thousands of people may attend such concerts, or how gorgeous the auditorium, or how steep the guarantee, Negro artists must build their program from the word of the masters including, of course the spirituals, which to my mind constitute the divinest music extant, them asters not excepted. Dressing-Room And Stage We know nothing much more important in the furthering of Negro musical art than to remind concert promoters of the absolute necessity of keeping dressing room and stage platform of the same temperature. Singers and speakers have been known to lose their voices for a long the "talkies" threatens to put off the head now go if it were not for such time. Even after recovery, the voice is often impaired. When larynigitis sets in it simply means that the performer must indefinitely cancel engagements, and this is too great a penalty to inflict upon a traveler all because of the portas t careless neglect of this seemingly unimportant item. The writer recalls having lost his voice for several weeks on account of a cold stage and a super-heated dressing room. Later on and at another large city, the stage was warm but the dressing room was cold and he had to substitute some time piano recital for baritone recitals. We found piano after: piano throut the entire country anywhere from one-eight to a whole tone below the normal pitch which is generally conceded to be "international" pitch. This means that "A" second space treble staff would sound the same as an official "A" tuning fork vibrating 440 times to the second. There is no excuse for any piano being more than an eighth of a tone below intonational pitch. And so to all my baritone recital promoters I made requests to examine the piano my accompanist was to use. Every singer is not a musician and few singers knew what the trouble is when they are in the pink of condition and yet do not sing well. It is the piano, oftimes. To those who privately own their pianos, our recommenation is that they cease making apologies for their poorly tuned instruments, have them tuned, if not twice, certainly once a year and have the tuner put the instrument in such tone that orchestral wind instruments can play in attune with it, which is international pitch. Musical Seniority Al over the world, there exists a craze for encouraging the beginner Continued in Column 3. --- (From THE NEW YORKER) There is an incident Paul Robeson, lawyer and singer, tells of himself at Rutgers College (white) that is characteristic of everything he has done since an important incident since it marks, in a way, the beginning of his fame. He was eighteen years old and trying out for the football team. The scrubs were playing the regular team and all the first-string men picked on this big powerful black boy who had the presumption to think he was a football player. They cleaned him up, broke a couple of his ribs, sprained his arm, and smashed his nose. He could hardly limp off the field, and for a week he stood around at practice mournfully watching the men play. His brother came up to him one day while he was standing on the sidelines and said, "What's the matter with you, kid? I didn't know you were yellow." "I got so mad," Paul said, "that I was all set to pitch into him. But I went out to the coach and told him I wanted to play that afternoon against the team. Nobody could call me 'yellow' and get away with it! "You're crazy, Robeson," the coach said, 'you're all smashed up. Better wait another week or two before you try again. This next is your last chance.' "But he let me play. Well, I decided to make that team or die right out there in the field." Paul was excited now telling about it, and as he was talking, he demonstrated the football positions, leaping from one to another like a giant panther. "They had to carry off six of their best men," he said, "but I made it. Robeson gave a boyish chuckle. The coach said, 'I guess I'll have to take you out. Robeson, before you spoil my team.' A Margry Cohen, tall and well yea willowy, brings a fine type of beauty to the stage. Experts say that beauty and legs of show girls and chorus girl will remain on the stage until a likely substitute for legs is found. And you know how long that will be.

"Martha," he began, edging closer and putting his long, slender hand on the back of her chair, "I love you, oh so dearly!" --- Should Married Women Work? (By LOUISE CAMPER) They do, of course, but what I mean is—should they get paid for it. Ask that question of the mothers of this year's crop of graduates and their answer sounds like the roar of the Niagara Falls—"No". Ask the husbands of the ladies—in question and they'll hem and haw and say all that speech about it being their choice, but still, the ayes have it. As for the married women themselves, they aren't saying much about it, they're too busy hunting jobs and working at them. All of which goes to show that there exists on this question what bookmakers thrive on—a difference of opinion. And a difference of opinion is just my dish! And opinions in these days are as changeable as the styles in hairdressing, before we get one opinion formed and nicely expressed along comes a radical change, blooey, and we have to gather up the fragments and form a brand new opinion Changing Times Before we get used to dodging automobiles along comes the aeroplane and right away we have to figure out what to do when it comes nosediving down our heads; before we get adjusted to the silent drama and not hearing the actors speak along comes the Vitaphone and we have to get used to hearing the darn thing make a lot of racket. Before we convince women that homemaking is the safest and the soffest job in the world along comes the electric eggbeaters, vacuum cleaners and whatnots and lo and behold, our dear housekeeper kicks over the traces and goes out looking for something more strenuous than pushing buttons. Which all goes to show that Change is Life and Life itself is a shifting, moving, sloughing process. If you want to keep up with Life you must change yourself, discard the old and put on the new idea like you would your new suit. Like Shedding Teeth Married women's out-of-the-home work is just a phase of development like shedding teeth and bobbing hair and chopping off skirts. In another decade or so, women will be doing something else radical and everybody will be asking, 'Should they do that?' Right now, women are leaving work in the afternoon, getting married in the evening, and instead of modestly retiring to the kitchen to wash dishes forever after, there they are the next morning back to work as innocent as though nothing momentous had occurred. And the outraged job seekers are saying 'taint right,' and the girl graduates are saying 'selfish cats' and the married men with families but no work are saying 'Criminal.' Why is she allowed to work when she is supported by her husband?" "but after all, is it wrong?" Here is an ethical rule by which we judge social problems—if everyone did this would it be beneficial to society at large? If it would, then it is Right. If everyone did it and choas resulted—then it is wrong. Jack Of All Trades Consider the married woman who works—but works at home. She is a jack of all trades. She is baker, dressmaker, cook, wash woman, housecleaner all rolled into one. Sometimes, she even presses the pants of her better half, and panits the woodwork, and makes Sister's hats and coats and cuts Johnnie's hair. She does everything for herself and puts out very little change. Consider the same woman after she lands herself a job. Does she rush home from work and set to doing her chores? Not likely. The only brush she slings then is the nail buffer; the only clothes she washes are chiffon hose, the only thing she paints is her own sweet face. She puts out the wash and coaxes in the housecleaner—she buys ready-made dresses and everything else, she doesn't cook any more—she merely assembles already cooked foods, she not only sends her husband's clothes to the cleaner's but hers also, she hires folks to keep Johnnie from harm. She Is Paid She does nothing but what she is paid to do in her eight day's labor. She hires people—she buys—she pays. In other words she is a boom to the shopkeeper, to the baker, to the tailor, to the domestic, to the delicatessen keeper. She booms business. She keeps tradesmen scurrying to supply her, she keeps domestics in work to run her house for her. She creates jobs for other people, because she has a bob herself and maybe some day she'll make one for your son or your daughter. Now, if she'll only boom the colored business man, we'll all benefit, because there'll be other jobs for the youth except the lean professions, there'll be other jobs for the girl besides school teaching. There'll be stenographers and bookkeepers to keep the married women's accounts straight, there'll be modistes to fashion her frocks, there'll be beauty shops to keep her hair looking good, there'll be part-time jobs for the matronly widow, there'll be work for all the industrial and vocational school grads to redecorate and remodel her home, there'll be garages and mechanics to shine up her car. The prospect is limitless. Don't pan the married woman who works, she's paying her way. Just sit tight and see what comes of it. I'll bet it will be something good. Town Around The Regent Theatre — what would we do without it? Here are 120,000 of us and this is our one best bet. Here we can see the latest in pictures, and a dash of Vitaphone vaudeville, although the Vitaphone stuff is sometimes rather punk. Of course, we have the Dunbar, in East Baltimore, and several others, but for fresh air, entertainment, space and corrt, "our" Regent is the best. "Our" Regent? Well, in a way! We can show ourselves under its bright light. We spread all over its sidewalk. We jam it to its doors to see "Ramona", and its other good productions. Sure its ours, even if its profits are making some one else wealthy. Some of us laugh at peculiar times. Some of us applauded at the grave scene in "Ramona". But we are popularly supposed to be light-hearted ando ver-emotional. This applause only helps to prove it. The most lonely place in this border state town is on a border line street car, such a Linden avenue car, for example. Get on one, during the rush hour traffic and sit in one of the double seats. They try to feel unaffected as the passengers crowd on, and two of them are in all the double seats except yours. You will be even more lonely in this situation, than you will be in the down town theatrical section, during theatre hours. In the days of Keither vaudeville at the Maryland, and when Fords and the Auditorium were more liberal, numbers of us could be seen down town any night. But now there is no waiting line in the alley by the Maryland; there are no well-dressed theatrical rooters on Howard or Fayette streets. Only a few news-boy urchins on a corner here and there, or a window-shopper strolling listlessly, or a tired bellhop or waiter coming off watch. It is becoming more and more difficult for one to shop comfort- GOOD EATS Helps For the Housewife Who Is at a Loss Just What to Cook for the Family. BLY GOLDEN SAUCE 2 eggs 3 tablespoons sugar 2 tablespoons lemon juice grated rind 1/2 lemon 2 tablespoons orange juice Beat yolks of eggs until thick, beat in 2 tablespoons sugar, lemon juice and rind and orange juice and cook over hot water until thick and cream. Beat whites of eggs until light; add remaining sugar; add to first mixture and cook 1 minute. Cool, stirring occasionally. Cook together tomato, onion, sugar, for 15 minutes. Strain, then add soda. Make cream sauce by melting butter, then add flour. Stir until thoroughly mixed, add milk, one-third at a time, stirring to avoid lumps. Cook until the raw taste is gone. Just before serving and while hot combine ONE and TWO by pouring the tomato mixture into the cream sauce. "Whipped cream on top." AS IT SHOULD BE COCOA 1 cup cocoa 1 cup sugar 2 cups water few grains salt milk Mix cocoa, sugar, salt; add water, and cook until a smooth, thick paste is formed. If convenient, allow to cook a long time, thirty minutes or more, in a double boiler to improve flavor. For one cup of cocoa use one tablespoon of this paste in 1 cup hot milk. Do not boil the milk and cocoa together. This paste may be put in the refrigerator or a cool place and kept for a week-or more. Making a larger quantity saves time and gas. It insures cocoa of a better flavor and a food more easily digested than when made hurriedly. FLOATING SALAD 3 eggs whites 4 tbsps. sugar 3 egg yolks 1/4 cup sugar 1/8 tsp. salt 1 1/8 tsp. vanilla Beat the whites until stiff. Add 4 tablespoons sugar. Drop by tablespoonfuls into a shallow pan of hot water. Bake in a moderate oven until delicately brown. Remove cooked whites into a serving dish. Prepare custard sauce: Mix yolks, sugar and salt in a bowl, add scaled milk slowly. Return to double boiler and cook until a coating is formed on the metal spoon. Remove immediately. Add flavoring. Pour around cooked whites in a large shallow bowl. Chill before serving. Use freshly conglulated or clabbered milk. Skim off cream. Set pan of clabber milk in hot water and heat slowly until curd separates from whey. Be careful not to let milk become too hot or curd will be tough. Place in a strainer a piece of cheesecloth rinsed in hot water. Strain heated curd mixture until well drained. Crush curd in a bowl with a fork. Mixing with a wooden potato masher will break up lumps and give cheese a finer texture. Season to taste with sweet or sour cream, butter, salt and pepper.

Pickles Pickles By ANN PAGE Director, A. and A. Bureau of Home Economics. It is most tantalizing to walk down the street these days and smell the piquant odor of cooking vinegar and spices. We weel as if we must step right around to the grocery and order some cucumbers, tomatoes and other "pickling" vegetables. Almost every household has its favorite pickle recipes handed down from mother to daughter but to any one who indulges in the fall sport of pickling there is something fascinating about trying at least one new recipe. One of my favorites is ripe cucumber pickles—and note that you can use the same recipe to advantage with spiced melon rind. To make ripe cucumber pickles soak three pounds of pared ripe cucumbers, cut into lengths, in lime water (two ounces of lime to one gallon of water) three hours. Drain and soak in fresh water one hour. Make a syrup by boiling together two quarts of water and one quart of sugar. Add the well drained cucumbers and cook rapidly thirty minutes. Add two cups sugar, one cup of vinegar and a spice bag (two tablespoons each of cinnamon, cloves, allspice and one tablespoon of mace) and cook until the cucumbers are transparent. Pack in hot jars and seal. Brown sugar may be used. Piccalilli For a piccalilli to use the green tomatoes before frost kills the vines chop two quarts of green tomatoes, two quarts of cabbage or celery, one quart of onions, two green peppers, three red sweet peppers and sprinkle them with one cup of salt and let stand over night. Drain and press out as much liquid as possible. Pour on two quarts of vinegar, add two pounds of brown sugar, one teaspoon of pepper, three teaspoons of mustard seed, two tablespoons of mustard and one and one half teaspoons of paprika. Cook one hour and pack into hot jars. A&P ESTABLISHED 1859 MUST Must is a tyrant, not famed for his beauty, A slave driver, doing the bidding of duty. When pleasure is calling us out on the doorway Must shouts in our cars: "You go my way, not your way!" There's never much merriment found when he's present For Must has a way that is always unpleasant. To see him and hear him you'd get the opinion That Must is supreme in this worldly dominion. He jabs us and stabs us and pricks us to labor, Insists that we play the true friend or the neighbor, But the fact is there's nothing but blustering to it, He shows us our job, but he can't make us do it. Must shouts: "Do your duty and give up that pleasure! Tomorrow, perhaps you may dance at your leisure." And some of us whimper and some of us grumble, But most of us know that this tyrant is humble, He would like to be boss, but his orders are hazy, He can't make us work if we choose to be lazy. But follow Must's bidding and stop when he'd stay you, That tyrant with honor and joy will repay you, He'll reward you with peace and with love beyond measure, And pride never found by the seekers of pleasure, Must is irksome and out on rough journeys he'll take you, But go with him, boy, and a man he will make you! Copyright, 1926, Edgar A. Guest. THE PINEAPPLE CHAPTER III. In three days Violet was very busy. She had had a thousand sheets and envelopes with letterheads printed. Fenner had given her the names of all the business men and lawyers in Harlem and she was writing to them, introducing herself. "That's the stuff!" said Fenner when she handed him a letter for criticism. "talk to 'em as if you're giving 'em something they've never had before. Tell 'em how much their ignorance of psychology's costing 'em every year. Always slip in something about psychology—there's a lot of bunk in the word, but it goes big with 'em." She showed him another letter "This won't do," was his verdict. It's well done, but it sounds like a form letter. Don't make a man feel that he's one of hundreds; make him feel that your service will fit his particular needs." In a week Violet had her first client. Ironically, it was a man to whom she had not written; he had seen her name on the office window. He did business in real estate without the formality of an office, and Violet was to learn that here were many of his kind in Harlem. He liked her work and told his friends about it. Soon the results of her carefully written letters to business men became apparent, and some days she was too busy for a word with Fenner. She was surprised to find the amount of work there was among business men who got along without stenographers. There were others, too, who came in with such trivial work that she knew their real purpose was to admire her good looks and get better acquainted. The pineapple wig had more than paid for itself. "If I pulled off this wig I'd lose nine-tenth of my business," she mused one day. "Even Richard Fenner would want me to go out. If he just knew—" She caught herself up angrily. She was always wondering what Fenner would say if he knew, and she dreaded his coming to know. She had seen him admiring her hair. But, after all, why should he know? It was none of his business. Fenner, to her delight, had begun to show signs of life. Helping her seemed to have given him new energy; the old look had left his face. He held his head higher, walked with a snap, went out every day for business and sometimes got it. He used his wide personal acquaintance to send Violet business, and whenever she was typing real estate papers she consulted him if he was in the office. In this wav he discovered a serious flaw in a mortgage form which one of her clients was about to sign and saved the client nine hundred dollars. The client said that from that day he would bring or send all the business he could find to the firm of Fenner and South. "Fenner and South!" cried Richard when the client had gone. "Sounds pretty good, young sister." One day an ascetic man with a benevolent face and dressed something like a minister came into the office and asked for Richard Fenner. "Here he is," said Richard. My name is Ward, Mr. Fenner, James Ward of Boston. I am contemplating the purchase of a row of six apartment houses on One Hundred and Twenty-eighth Street. My decision, sir, depends on the chance of my finding the right man to handle the properties. Living in Boston, I cannot attend to them myself. In a rather unusual way I discovered that you are the right man." Richard smiled inquiringly. With pursed lips Mr. Ward took from his pocket a folded paper which Richard recognized as the Weekly Gabbler. "In the subway," continued Mr. Ward, "I happened to pick up this sheet, which someone had left on the seat beside me. Having nothing else to read, I looked through it. I found it ridiculing a real estate man known as Golden Rule Fenner because of his ethical principles. I was then convinced that you were the man I was looking for. If you don't mind, I should like to hear more of your attitude toward matters of real estate." Richard asked him to be seated and they talked for an hour. When Mr. Ward left the office he had decided to buy the property and let Richard manage it. "Tide's turned, young sister." said Richard when they were closing the office for the night. "Eh, what's the great joke?" Violet had burst into a scream of laughter. "You know," she gasped between laughs, "the irony of life is one of my pet subjects, but I never saw it work like this. Jabber of the Weekly Gabbler's always knocking you into something. He knocked you to me at the dance and immediately I asked him to introduce you to me. Now he's knocked you into a business deal that any realty man in Harlem would be glad to get." "True enough; but don't give Jabber all the credit, young sister. Remember, if it hadn't been for you I'd not have been here to get that business. By this time I'd have been back on the trains making up beds for passengers." "But see what I owe to you!" she retorted. "I've been here five weeks and already I need an assistant. Who TED B. WILSON engineered it all? Who kept me from wasting two hundred dollars? Who told me to write letters to business men, and how to write them? Who shoos people into the office? Richard Fenner, Richard Fenner, Richard Fenner." "Oh, piffle! Let's go somewhere to dinner." They went to dinner, then to the theatre. At eleven o'clock they were on their way uptown in an elevated train. "The best of it is," Richard was saying, "that the management of Mr. Ward's houses will bring me a lot of other business—matter of prestige, you know, success begetting success." "Isn't it wonderful, Rich—" She checked herself. "Well, go on. Why the pause?" "Why," she said, flushing, "I was calling you Richard." "Why shouldn't you? Plenty of peopled o it. You've done it a dozen times yourself." "What! Oh, I couldn't have." "Of course you didn't realize it, but you did it. Once it made me so woozy I put on my hat and went out of the office." Their eyes met and turned away, Violet felt uneasy. She might have known that something like this was on its way, that it had really begun The Years Before School MRS. NESTCL NOEL One day I was on a visit with my four-year-old daughter. There were no other children in the house, and she was settin' lonely. "Lend her a book," I said. They could not find a picture book. "Any book with large print will do." I told them. A book with good plain letters was brought. To their astonishment the little girl was quite happy, reading words here and there. "She should not know how to read at her age." obeyed a woman. "Why not?" I asked. "It's bad for her health," was the reply. This child had not been urged to read. At an early age, I had given her alphabet blocks with which to play. As she wanted to know what the blocks meant, I told her the names of the letters. From that, it was not long before she knew the words under the pictures on the blocks and was picking them out of every book she came across. It afforded her much amusement for a rainy day. Knowing something about books, she was later, less timid at the idea of going to school. There are other things, however, more important. Before reaching the school age a child should be taught to speak good English and should understand and practice pleasing manners. Some children are entirely untrained in the little courtesies before they enter school, and often school does not improve them in the least in this respect. "I do not know what kind of manners the children are taught." remarked a woman to me once. "They seem ever so much rougher than before they went to school." If the home influence does not keep children as polite as they should be, it is unreasonable to expect the school to do so. It is the home life which has the most influence. It very largely determines the future. Before school age when we think our children are learning nothing, they are really learning a great deal. It rests with us to see what they learn. In the bright sayings of children we often get an insight into their daily home life. The years before seven are the that night when she had first seen Richard staring out of his office window like a lost soul. But love is like death; we see it coming, yet we are never prepared for its arrival. They got off the train at One Hundred and Thirty-fifth Street. "Where are we going?" asked Violet as he turned westward. "To St. Nicholas Park. It's late, I know, but tomorrow's Sunday." Violet wanted to bring up an argument against it, but she could think of none. They slowly mounted the hill of the park, which was deserted except for a few couples who seemed glued together on the benches. "Vulgar people!" said Violet nervously. "Petting in a park." "You think they're vulgar, eh?" he asked grimly. "You just wait a few minutes." "What do you mean?" She hung back. "Don't you—hadn't we better go home?" "Oh, you'll get home, all right. Here's a good bench, miles away from everybody and right under a friendly tree." "But why should we need a—oh, don't, please, don't!" "Do, please, do." He held her to him so tightly that she could hardly breathe. "You've got to serve a term of ten minutes in these arms and no time off for good behavior." He kissed her—she forgot to resist. Before she knew it her arms were around him; their lips touched and clung. It was something more than ten minutes before she recovered herself. "Oh, Richard, Richard, I shouldn't have let you!" "Let me! You couldn't have stopped me with a machine gun." "But—but I mean I've deceived you. There's something I should have told you, but you didn't give me time." "What is it—married?" "Oh, no! But I—I'm not as pretty as you think I am." "You don't understand. I know it'll kill me with you but I have to tell you. My—my hair—" "Leave that to me." "Is a wig," he .terrupted, "and a blame fine one." "Sure, dear heart, I knew it all the time. I've seen you without it." "What! You knew!" "You couldn't have." "Sweetheart." he laughed, "you were too mad to notice me at the time, but I was in Joe Wilks' barber shop that night when you asked him for a pineapple bob." "And you still like me, with this awful stuff on—" "Violet. I'd love you if you were baldheaded!" The End. ♦ most impressionable, and their influences continue throughout life. A child comes into the world knowing nothing. It does not know how to walk, to eat, to speak. Why not teach it to do all these things correctly, to save learning them twice? These lessons should not be made difficult; all of us remember best the experiences most enjoyed. We spoke in the beginning of reading. If your little one learns to recognize the letters and some of our common words it should be as an amusement, a game. Do not commit the mistake of making it a lesson. All life is a lesson if you want to make and call it such. Accept as much as possible of it in the highest spirit of play and it will bring more joy. Especially, do this with those first few years of a child's life at home when all work should be play.

Cupid's Corner By AUNT PHYLLIS A little story appeared in the paper the other day of an insignificant little tragedy, that in milder form takes place in many women's lives. It seems that a little Cuban girl, just 13, was told in a flare of anger by her sweetheart, that he never wanted to see her face again. Consequently she shut herself in a room and remained unseen even by relatives for fourteen years until her death recently. There is a double tragedy in this story. It was tragic that if a girl really was in love that she lose her love and life so early without ever really lived, but it was even more tragic that she should resort to that old and ineffectual method of retaliation, known as cutting off one's nose to spite one's face. For to successfully cope with life's battles, love or otherwise, one needs both nose and face. The girl was very young and thought, as youth does, that was all of life. Many other girls and women are making the same mistake. When love falls they take such drastic measures as ending it all, brooding until mental derangement follows, or perhaps worse than either, drowning their sorrow in dissipation, forgetting as in this case the man lives on and loves someone. The fellow in the case repented on his harsh words and came back but the girl stuck to her grim determination. How much better it would have been if she had gone on as before giving love another chance and if it had failed taking up some other interest to fill up her life for after all love is not all of life. Many church workers, club women, teachers, novelists, social workers and others are putting life and energy into their work in an endeavor to make life give some return beside the dividend of love.

JANE LILLIAN MUELLER Maryland Lady Was Right Within a few months there will be no more feverish, billious, headachy, constipated, pale and puny children! That prophecy would surely come true if every mother could see for herself how quickly, easily and harmlessly the bowels of babies and children are cleansed, regulated, given tone and strength by a product which has proved its merit and reliability to do what is claimed for to millions of mothers in over fifty years of steadily increasing use. As mothers find out from using it how children respond to the gentle influence of California Fig Syrup by growing stronger, sturdier and more active daily they simply have to tell other mothers about it. That's one of the reasons for its overwhelming sales of over four million bottles a year. A Maryland mother, Mrs. J. F. Mueller, 1402 No. Milton Ave., Baltimore, says: "Before my daughter, Jane Lillian, was a year old, she began having constipation. I decided to give her California Fig Syrup and in a few days she was all right and looked fine again. This pleased me so much that I have used Fig Syrup ever since for all her colds or little upsets spells. It always stops her trouble quick, strengthens her, makes her eat." Always ask for California Fig Syrup by the full name and see that the carton bears the word "California." Then you'll get the genuine. Would You Wed Jew Or Negro? PARIS.—"My Negro uncle is the son of my grandmother, and the brother of my father. At the same time I hasten to declare that I am a white woman. My genealogy is bi-colored only by accident. But what an accident." So begins one of the latest novels on the Negro to appear here. The title is "Blanche et Noir," (White Woman and Black Man) and the author is Mme. Louise Faure-Favier, one of the best known of the French writers. Mme. Faure-Favier has handled her subject so delightfully, with such ingenuousness, and such subtle humor, that we are inclined to think that even an American publisher might be induced to handle an English translation of her book, although the union of white woman and black man really does not occur in America, oh no, and as such the American public would be interested in it. Still if only for its humor we fancy that Wizard Evans, or Messrs. Cox, Plecker, Powell, and Garvey, could read it without seeing red. By J. A. ROGERS 10 PT. Double Col. Lead goes here The principal character of the story is Jeanne Lortac-Rieux, who comes from a good middle-class French family, and who was born at same year that her grandmother, Malvina, presents a son to the "Negro Samba-Laobe" in far-off Senegal. Samba-Laobe had come from Africa to visit the Paris Exposition of 1889. Mme. Malvina was dining with friends on the first floor of the Elfelf Tower, when she saw a Negro, well-dressed, and speaking enough French to be able to order a meal, seated at the next table, gazing at her. Coming from a little town far from Paris, it was the first black man. Mme. Malvina had ever seen. With the Blue Eyes When the waiter came to take the black man's order, the latter had said, looking at Mme. Malvina: "Bring me the same kind of wine that the woman with the blue eyes ordered." An acquaintance had been struck up on the spot, an invitation to climb the rest of the Tower followed, and all ended in Mme. Malvina's "slamming the door of the house where she had spent twenty-seven years of wisdom and self-denial," and running away to Senegal with Sanba-Laobe. Qualities in Love Making "So much austere virtue ending in the maddest adventures," comments one relater of the tale." But insinuates another: "It is because he was a Negro. It seems that the Negroes have some most extraordinary qualities in love-making." Little Jeanne, however, does not know this. But young as she is — only five — she perceives that there is some mystery in her family, which seems divided into two camps. To add to her mystery she resembles Mme. Malvina, and becomes strikingly so as the years go by. Whispers She hears her grandmother's name spoken about from time to time in whispers buto ne day she is to hear it spoken aloud. She was riding on the train from her native town to Lyons. It was her first train ride, and so carried away with joy was she, that in sheer exuberation, she tossed her hat through the window. For this she was soundly boxed by her parents. "This child," screams her mother, "is crazy. And she has good cause to be. It isn't for nothing that she resembles Mme. Malvina. She is going to be just as crack-brained as her. Because, never you doubt it, she did that through excitement just like her grandmother when she ran away to Africa with a Negro." Curiosity about Negroes Ah, sighed Louise, how clumsy parents are? I knew little then and I had never seen a Negro. From that moment, however, a curiosity about Negroes was aroused in her, and the picture of a Negro she had seen in a book recurred to her. There was also more talk of Mme. Malvina. "Oh," said her laughing uncle, Dr. Rieux, one day: "She has Malvina's temperament but let us hope it will not carry her so far away — as far Africa." On this Mme. Dupre says: "A Negro! How horrible! Fall in love with a Negro! I still believe such a thing impossible on the part of a refined woman, I will say even of a woman with any pretensions to culture." A During the World War Breton girls vamped Senegalese soldiers. ONE ANSWER The Finer Of The Two 2ND ANSWER Either If He's Good Looking Wealthy And Well Bred. A WOULD YOU WED A NEGRO OR A JEW? More and more too, her mother sees in her little actions, the temperament of Malvina, and predicts that she is going to do the same as she, Louise, too, becomes more and more interested in Negroes, and reads about Africa. And as if to make matters worse an incident happens when she is ten on the day of her first communion that she finds it impossible to explain away. She is with two little girl friends when one of them suddenly asks the question: "Whom would you rather marry, a Jew or a Negro?" Louise realized at once that her little friend riend had raised the question to embarrass her and her friend for "of all people the Jews were the only one we had not forgiven. At services we would kneel at each verse when there was mention of Christ absolving the different peoples, but when the Jew was mentioned we remained standing to mark the curse on the Jew. And this had left a strong impression on us. So that Theresa's question could not but have a negative response from us regarding Jews. But at that the only choice was a Negro!" Better Marriage Than Death Both girls insisted that in that case neither would marry, but said the little tormentor: "Suppose they would cut off your head if you don't marry." "What, have my head cut off. Better marriage than death." I replied. "I would marry the Negro." At this the other two girls began to shout: "She has said it! She has said it! Jeanne says that she would marry a Negro," and to Jeanne's parents and all over the town they carried the news: much to the discomfiture of poor Jeanne, who left alone, retires to her garret to read more about Negroes and Africa. The Negro Uncle Jeanne, more and more interested about Negroes, makes little Negro dolls and plays at being in Africa, whereupon her parents accuse her of playing at being a Negro, whereupon she confesses to the priest, who promptly absolves her. The fact that she has a Negro uncle is also used by some of her girl friends to torment her. She, however, continues her studies about the Negroes and defends them. In a cathedral not far from her home she sees "in the middle of the transept the celebrated Black Virgin crowned with diamonds and dressed in brocade and gold." "Why," she asks her uncle "is the Sacred Virgin Black as a Negro woman?" Black Virgins Her uncle replies that the Black Virgin was brought from Palestine by the king, St. Louis, and that there are many other Black Virgins as in Velay, Auvergne, and Forez. That there are also the Black Virgins of ```markdown ``` DARK SKINS Brightened! Mauriac, Vassiviere, de Murat, Aurillac, D'Orcival. Peasant Home She and her uncle enter the home of a French peasant, and are driven out by "the feted" odor it exhaled. "Hein," cries her uncle, "what misery. One can almost believe one's self at the end of the world. It can't be worse among the Negroes." Jeanne replies at once: "The Negroes are clean. The Negroes wash themselves, they bathe...." "You're right," replies her uncle. "The Negro has a sense of cleanliness. It is, moreover, a question of climate with him. The heat demands it." Jeanne is also called upon to answer about the supposed curse that a supposed Noah is said to have placon a supposed Ham, from whom was descended a supposed Canaan, who is supposed to be the ancestors of Negroes, but in this as in other questions she holds her own. The Great War Then comes the great war, and Jeanne is a journalist. She sees "black soldiers of a Senegalese regiment." She interviews a young black officer whose face is disfigured by a shell, and who speaks correct French, she sees black soldiers convalescing proudly wearing their Croix de Guerre. With them are several young Bretonnes, and she "was not surprised to see these beautiful blonde girls with arms around the necks of these great Negroes whispering endearing words to them. I tried to know how I really felt about this at this moment, and oh well, I felt not the least repugnance. These Negroes "Liberia Old-New" (By James Sibley and D. Westermann Published by Doubleday, Doran & Co. 244 Madison Ave., New York City. Price $3.00. Postage 15 Cents. In this volume we have an up-to-date book on Liberia. Dr. Sibley visited Liberia in 1925 on behalf of the American Advisory Committee on Education and Dr. Westermann, of the University of Berlin, has spent many years on the West African Coast. The chapters on native life by 7 Dr. Westermann are the best in the book. They give us a clear, entertaining picture of the clan, its government, its judicial proceedings, its family life. Especially valuable is the account of the education of Negro youth, at least that aristocratic section chosen to attend Foro, the boys' school, and Sande, the girls' school. The children are taken from their parents who may not know even whether they are alive or dead until the time comes for them to "graduate." The boys endure a Spartan discipline and early learn to be men. What grows increasingly clear to us in this story is the difference in viewpoint of the man who owes allegiance to his clan and the man who owes no allegiance to any power but that of the government under which he lives. Will the natives, as they become westernized, lose their spirit of cooperation, and become crass individualists?

Besides the stunted young Bretons (males) too often alcoholic and degenerate they seemed so many herules, and their bearing, their walk, their large shoulders explained perfectly the attraction they exercised on the white Bretonnes." Breton Girls Answer Finally Jeanne, curious to know how the young white girls felt, went to them and asked the same question that had been put to herself: "Which would you rather marry, a Jew or a Negro?". One replied without surprise: "Why, the finest of the two!" Another said: "On condition that he is good-looking, rich and well-bred." Whereupon Louise meditates: "These young people are right in not embarrassing themselves with prejudices of race and color. They will love a Negro if the Negro has a fine appearance and his besh moves their flesh. There is already a great novelty in this fact since these young people do not answer my question in the old way: 'A Negro! How horrible!' Is White Beautiful "Besides, is white so beautiful. And in any case what is a white? Is it a collegian on whose face the multi-colored pustules scatter the growing beard? Is it a bilious old man? Is it a young woman who powders her blotched and pimpled nose, or is it her husband, thin-skinned and herpetic whose hoary head resembles a red knob?" As to Jeanne, herself, one day while in the cemetery in which her ancestors are buried she comes face education might preserve their spirit of mutual helpfulness. We gain the impression after we have finished this book that the Liberian of American ancestry is learning to accept the educated native. Once Liberian society feared to do this, like the white trader held aloof from the native. The few odd 25,000 might have been engulfed among the savages of the Hinterland. But now education is reaching into the forest, bringing the brightest young people to western schools, and, since there is only a cultural, not a racial feeling against intermarriage, natives and Americans are mingling. This helps the stock. That civilization is increasing in Liberia is certain. We must not, however, expect the civilization of the temperate clime in a land where the annual rainfall is 179 inches, where driver ants abound and where tropic diseases are a menace.

She kisses him affectionately and walks off with him while through the village circulates the news that Jeanne is walking with a Negro, adding even "a handsome Negro." Women Must Lead Her uncle, who is wealthy, tells her of his mother and the sacrifice she made in going to Africa, and the good works she did there whereupon Louise adds: "The women will one day undertake the fine role of mediator, such as was that of Malvina Rieux in 1890 in the Senegal, still uncivilized. The women with their better brain and finer hearts are the real civilizers. They are the ones who will take the initiative in wiping out that terrible antagonism of race, and the ones who will prevent the men, after having fought over territory, religion, and money, to kill one another over color of skin. One Humanity "It will be sufficient for them to decree that the black equals the white, and that beauty is to be found as much in one as in the other; that the brain of a black equals that of a white, and that there is but one humanity."

As meeting it was brought out that the company has a definite policy on the part of such stores as Joel Gutman, Hutzler Bros, the May Company and a number of other places which heretofore catered to the future. Managers of some of these stores have admitted colored that they no longer desire colored trade. At some of the places customers have told the company that "there are notishing their size" when asked to be shown articles.

SAYS MOSES TRIED MODERN MARRIAGE An assertion that Moses, himself, tried to regulate sex control by a system of companionate marriage and capital punishment. H. W. Moses in his sermon Sunday night at Leadenhall Baptist Church. "Companionate marriage." Dr. Moses pointed out, "is simply easy divorce. Jesus pointed out that sexual desire is primarily in the soul. Sexation is not a physical necessity like eating. Virtue is not a menace to good health. Clean minded people do not seet their flesh. The man of man and wife is dear than sex association. Husband and wife find in each other the counter-part of themselves. "Are No Bar To Leandness" "Old age and marriage do not stop people from being lewd. The more alive one has the greater is his dissatisfaction with any. Adultery may be stopped in the opera by punishment, but cannot stop it in the imagination." "Adultery makes true life life impossible. It tends to usurp the place of clean friendship and the danger of killing or being killed. It destroys self-respect. It tends to excessive tuxedo which in turn leads to sex perversion. Must Have Family Feeling. The cultivation of family control. Only degenerates have sexual desires for their known close blood kin.

Continued from Page One performance of their duties that officials shall enjoy the confidence and respect of the people with whom they serve." No More Appointments That means, according to Col. Wise, and his fellow Republican reorganizers, that, with Hoover as President, there will be no more appointments of Negroes and disproptate whites to office in the south because they are Republicans, but that such appointments will be open to anti-Smith Democrats who are willing to affiliate definitely with the Republican party. This is the burden of the speeches which Col. Wise and other Republican stump speakers are making throughout the south. They are also giving assurance that with the Republican party going on, so too it definitely indoles the dischernishment of the Negroes, which was accomplished by the southern states in circumvention of the fifteenth amendment, so too it definitely indoles any move to enforce the fourteenth amendment, which requires the reduction of representation at Washington of states which abridge the right to vote on punishment for crime and rebellion. Col. Wise goes even further, and attempts to establish that the Democratic party, under Smith leadership, will be the party of New York, from the stump the picture of a colored Tammany boss dictating to his white stenographer, and bids his hearers consider what Tammany will do in this line of campaigning in the south if Smith is elected. In furtherance of the movement to eliminate the Negro from a position of influence in the Republican party, the committee has replaced Negro campaign managers with whites all along the line. In Georgia the committee lists the position of committeeman as vacant, ostensibly because of a question of the validity of the reelection of Ben Davis, a Negro, to this place by the Georgia delegation to Kansas. Georgia has been placed under the direction of a committee of white men. Davis is throwing out hints in a Negro paper he has written, particularly those in the north, will retaliate on the Republican party for such treatment. An Example In Mississippi A few weeks after the Kansas City convention, Mrs. Mabel Willebrande went to Mississippi and procured a national committeeman. Perry Howard, for selling federal offices, lorestilling in the nick of time an expo from the national committeeman. Perry Howard, for selling federal offices, lorestilling in the nick of time an expo from the national committeeman pending his trial in November. He is being ignored completely, which has placed the Mississippi canvas in the hands of the "illy white" faction headed by Charles Gordon, former postmaster of the southern speech at Elizabethabad, when J. Will Taylor, Congressman from East Tennessee, and a politician was frozen out of a prominent participation in the Hoover exercises. Congressman Taylor has stood so church as against illiwrites in the state. According to the story going the rounds Congressman was talking and had a prepared speech already to telegraph to the newspapers immediately to inform the government the Hoover address was to begin at a specimen time to be broadcast over the radio. Whether or not that all of the time before the radio hour was taken up and the Congressman left the platform without making his speech.

HEAD WON'T AID G. O. P. Victor Daniels Returns Publicity To Mrs. Helen Cardoza State Leader MABEL WILLEBR'NDT TOO Fewer G. O. P. Heroics, Less Will Have To Blush For RIDGE, Md.-Belief that many race voters are merely adhering to the Republican party because of their belief that the more effectual way of fighting the party's shortcomings is from within, was expressed by C. E. H. Daniel, head of Gibbons Institute, here, this week when he refused to lend his support to the present G. O. P. campaign. Cites Willebrandt Returning to Mrs. Fannie Cardozo, Baltimore, some Republican publicity matter that she had sent him, Mr. Daniel pointed out that no race voter could seriously believe the statements set forth in the appeal for support. Reviewing the unsavory conditions within the ranks of the G. O. P., Mr. Daniel said: "After the spectacle of Mrs. Willebrandt walking uninvited into the meeting of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, and actually addressing it, contrary, as they claim, to the wishes of its officers, and the more important role of view of her entering into religious bigotry as a means of securing support, and her further indiscretions in the enforcement of the Volstead Act, all these without challenge or rebuke — I certainly could not lend my little influence, which I most insignificantly has at least the courage of its convictions, even the I may disagree with many of those convictions. "As to the Republican campaign to date, it seems to me that the fewer heroes Negroes make over it the less we shall have to blush for." L. Toomey Presents "Maid Of The Mill" Comic Production Of Rural Life Given At Metropolitan Church The story having its scenes laid in the country, gave many opportunities to the rural characters to enact some very funny little scenes. The piece had to do with a Sybil Forrester, a pretty maid, and Robert Reed, a city chap who had been betrothed to each other by their parents since childhood. Bringing about their marriage against many obstacles gave all of the characters many chances for action. The cast included: Gladys Sampson, Leon Woolford, Ruth Bowie, Hassel Simms, Lillian Garrison, Edward Watts, Bernard Creigler, Alvin Campbell, Harry Carpenter, Charles Thomas, Joseph Patterson, Charles and Garrett D. Rawlings, supt. of the Sunday School. A few of the characters were members of Mr. Toomey's "Troubadours", while the majority of the cast were members of the Sunday School.

The club also takes a shot at the "traffic light racers," pointing out that many car drivers reckless endanger their lives and endanger others by trying to "beat" the traffic There is a grave menace in the one-eyed monster that comes testing for funiture is the driver who is able to determine just which side of the car is nearest to him. It is not easy to be blinded that even the most experienced driver has difficulty in steering safely past the offending car frequently is given by drivers that they were unaware that only one light was burning. It is not easy to fall at first to note the difference in his light rays, no motorist accustomed to night driving can proceed any further. If the failure of a bulb, even if he is not warned by the shouts of 'one eye' from past, he will have many shades of light rays of the headlamp shines on the fender tips. The driver can keep a check on his lights and drivers. A darkened fender tip means the bulb on that side has failed.

Ernest Lyon Preaches On 'Obstacles' To Over Crowded Church "Every man has the solution of his problems in his own hands," he said. "We should not stop one from climbing the road to success," said the Rev. Lyon, at his home coming Wednesday, at Ames Memorial Church, Friday. Tells of Moses Rev.

Obstacles and Difficulties Define Obstacles and Difficulties, Rev. Lyon said, "the former means hindrances in the way of physical, temperamental and spiritual entanglements, perplexing situation, a troublesome public, etc. "Zachaeus, who was diminutive in size," continued Rev. Lyon, "was determined to see Jesus so he ran ahead and for his determination to overcome his physical obstacles Jesus was his guest that day. Rev. Lyon related the story of how of the land of Egypt, and of how God tested their way of the Red Sea. The church was filled to capacity, many coming off of the late Mrs. Amie Robinson, wife of J.

IN FREE PRIZES Given by The O Reliable AFR Chords And Dis-chords W. Llewellyn Wilson October annually brings the entrance examinations for granting music credit as a major subject in the local high schools, to pupils from the ninth grade on. The system of granting credit, in vogue here, has done much to raise the standards of music study here in Baltimore. Pupils know that they will not receive credit unless they take their lessons regularly and practice assiduously. This, of course, brings about results which must indeed be very gratifying parents and teachers. These examinations are based solely on the pupil's achievement up to the time of the examination, and are planned to determine whether or not the standard of two or more prospective students for school music credit is up to the high school grade, as is of course, required for other subjects in the high school's curricula. No Approved Teachers Baltimore, unlike some other cities where music credit is allowed pupils of high school grade may not have any required music teachers, but that is meant, there are no teachers whose pupils are permitted to receive credit without entrance examination. Each and every pupil is judged eligible solely on the merits of his individual achievement at the time of his examination. The end of procedure is just, and fair and no attempt is made to judge the relative importance of private music teachers work, but to judge the candidate's achievement. Progressive music teachers welcome the opportunity to have their puns take the test, firstly, because successful achievement inspires the pum to greater endeavor; and secondly, because it permit, the individual teacher to check on his own ef- Any pupil taking lessons regularly in piano, organ, voice or any orchestra instrument, if his work is up to high school grade, can take the examination. Music Directo, Coonates Director of Music Education in Public Schools of Baltimore, John Denues, and the Committee on Music Credits, appointed by Board of School Teachers of Baltimore, have compiled a booklet which describes in detail the plan for earning music credits in the city high schools. This booklet is issued by the Department of Education. Copies may be obtained free of cost, at any high school building upon request. The entrance examination begins this year on Monday, October 8. and will be held in Room 104, Administration Building Annex, at Carrollton and Lafayette avenues. Commends Teacher's Work Miss M. Almira Miller, recently assigned teacher of music at the newly opened Platoon School in Northwest Baltimore. has done some admirable work in the school that was formerly elementary School 112. The presentation of the operetta 'Rip Van Winkle' Ira Wilson, was one of the bright spots in the musicals given in school children during the last past. Miss Miller received her early musical training from her father, Mr. William Miller, a well-known business man here; later she became pupil of Mrs. Miller, who is prominent in musical circles, and who numbers among her successful din Redmond. Need Of Wholesome Music When the whole story written concerning personage hereabouts at one time, another, have been for good, the development of wholesome music in our community, William B. Hamer, I believe, will be mentioned. Advance of Good Music Mr. Hamer for a score or more easily, when untiring in his efforts to encourage and to support worthy musical enterprises here in Baltimore. Though Zaccheus-like in stature, he has never been found up to "scymore nor any kind" when he has been working out for musical programs on a large scale and of a high order. Years ago, Mr. Hamer was a dynamic choir leader, during his period of leadership he staged and produced a number of popular cantatas of restyear year. Among the works produced were, George Roofe, David, The Shepherd Boy, and "Esther, the Beautiful Girl" by William Bradbury. In these later years he has been business manager for a number of more or less successful musical organizations. "Uncle Billy," as he was affectionately called by his associates of other years, has always been a part of good music, and he at times has fought very hard to maintain standards, which he believe to be of the highest type.

They hoped to develop physicians and surgeons and a nurse training department, but urged patience in working out the project. Closing his address, Dr. Finney read from his address: Bishop Gardener Murray and Julius Rosenthal, who sent regrets that they could not be present at the opening. Bishop Gaines The formal presentation was made by Bishop A. L. Gaines, who spoke in behalf of the Trustee Board. "The trustees," he said, are senting to the office an institution with $5,150 deposited in building and equipment.
