Earl Smith, 834 Carey street: "I don't think it is ladylike for girls to smoke in public."
Aloshys Smith, 412 Myrle avenue: "I am strongly opposed to ladies smoking, and naturally think it is one of the greatest mistakes any young girl can make. However, if it must be, it should be done either privately or among their own sex."

Dr. James Blake, 924 N. Alsquith: "As far as the matter of smoking on the part of girls is concerned feel that you are not a big danger.

The Legislature in 1922 increased the required session for colored schools from seven to eight months. The number of teachers were open on the average 145 days, while in 1928 the elementary schools were open 168 days and high schools were open 170 days. The growth of session and the improvement in attendance is evident in the increase in the average number of days attended by each colored pupil enrolled in the school days in 1928 in 1929 mean increased attendance per colored pupil of 40 days, or two school months.
Salary Increases
Owing to minimum salary schedules adopted by the Legislature in 1922, the employment of better prepared and more experienced teachers and the longer school year, the average salary of colored teacher has increased from $359 in 1920 to $620 in 1928, an increase of $261 or 73 per cent. The average salary of the county colored teacher has increased from $600 in 1920 to $1,117 in 1928.
"In the fall of 1923 the colored normal school at Bowie established a two year normal course above the normal attendance of fifteen students. In the fall of 1928 there are 122 students enrolled in this professional course, so that the course is no longer one-half of the teachers needed to fill vacancies in the county colored elementary schools. The State appropriation for current expenses at the school was from $10,000 in 1920 to $38,170 in 1928. More than $100,000 has been spent for buildings at Bowie, making the inventory at present total $170,000.
20 High Schools
The number of county colored
high schools approved for State aid
has increased from 4 in 1920 to 20
What Do
About the
Laxative Habi
What do YOU do when the bowels
need a little assistance? If you clearu
up the condition with some laxative
made with CASOARA, there is nothing
better for the system-for the blood.
But if you don't KNOW the laxative
you have learned to depend on
of harmless seizures, here's some
truly valuable advice.
The bark of a tree called cascara is the most marvelous conditioner material used in hair. It lattes the bowel's muscular action, but does NOT weaken. A violent laxative forms the laxative HABIT. You always need more on the morrow. With cascara you don't. As gentle influence carries on, sometimes for days. With less and less need of any aid, as time goes on. So, the very next time you feel sluggish, take only a candy Cascaret.
CASCARETS

Coughs from colds may lead to serious trouble. You can stop them now with Cremulsion, an emulsified creosote that is pleasant to take. Cremulsion is a medical discovery with twofold action; it soothes and heals the inflamed membranes and inhibits germ growth. Of all known drugs creosote is recognized by high medical authorities as one of the greatest healing agencies for coughs from colds and bronchial irritations. Cremulsion contains, in addition to creosote, other-healing CREOM FOR THE COUGH FRO

$50,000 HIGH SCHOOL FOR ANNAPOLIS
Is Included In $90,000 Appropriation For Anne Arundel County
In a bill introduced into the land Legislature in the $90,000
Anne Arundel County, there is a provision for the building of a $90,000 colored high school.
It is proposed that this new high school be built by students of Annapolis and be used by students living in Anne Arundel County.
Second Bill
A bill providing for a new high school was introduced in the legislature but was not made by the high school that were not enough high school children there to warrant a school. It was brought out that the children in the northern part of the county were not enough high school children to attend the Baltimore City high school and those in the southern section to attend the school at Bowie. Because of the advantage taken of this offer, there were only eighty students in the local high
More Children
At the present time there are about two hundred children in the Annapolis high school and the county feels justified in asking for the new school. In 1928, of the 20 accredited high schools have a four year standard high school course. In 1929, there been organized this fall making the present number in the counties 24.
"The enrollment in county colored high schools has increased from 1928 to 1929. Best of these high school students are being urged to prepare for teaching in the elementary schools of Maryland, the state of Maryland, and the teachers in county colored elementary schools had the equivalent of four years of high school work, plus two years of normal school work. In 1928 this percentage has increased to 82.
Attendance
"Instruction and attendance in the colored schools are improving. Statistically this may be proved by- 1000
1. The reduction of 4,034 from 1923 to 1928 in the number of pupils in the work of the elementary grades.
2. The increase in the number of over-age elementary schools who numbered 1,526 in 1928.
3. The reduction of 4,353 in the number of over-age pupils from 1923.
S627.000 Spen on Schools
"Disbursement for current expenses in county colored schools in 1920 to 1924, of $44,000 higher in 1928, the aggregate, exclusive of capital outlay, bein $627-000.
Of $644,000 spent for buildings for colored schools in the counties from 1920 to 1928, $77,350 was contributed by the Rosenwald Fund. Of 789 rooms in use by county colored pupils, 264 or 33 of them, modern, having been built since 1920.
Parent-Teacher Assoc.
"Two-thirds of the colored schools, 343 in all, have parent-teacher associations, or 34 or 33, and some influence in running the progress noted above in colored schools. In most of the counties of the State the colored school year is less than that of the white schools.
Discrimination
"The foregoing record from the State Superintendent's Report is one of which the whole State may justly presume be excused for criminals entirely on racial lines which should be abolished at the end of the school year." "Reference is made to the excellent report of the State Board of Education for 1927, the last report at hand, which will show the com-munities in which the best schools in the counties of the State. Only a few items, chiefly relating to salaries, will be here pre-mentioned, though a comparison of the material equipment would be equally impressive.

As might be expected, the average cost per pupil as between white and colored shows wide discrepancy. The average cost per pupil as between black and colored $71 while the average cost per white high school pupil is $38, for the colored high school pupil $57.
Transportation
In certain parts of the State the colored pupil is required to attend an annual attendance in had weather difficult or impossible. Transportation of pupils under the direction of the educational authority practiced elsewhere is earnestly urged.
Equal Pay
This Commission believes that, "Equal pay for equal work." is the true principle of merit-based compensation. Overseed teachers of Maryland are to be encouraged to make long continued preparation for efficient professional service they can provide. Teachers should be reasonable remuneration. When colored teachers make special preparation by advanced study it costs them as much as it does the white teachers.
Recommendation
"This Commission re-affirms Recommendation of 1927 as follow:
"That the School Code be amended to provide that the minimum salaries of colored teachers and supervisors be the same as the minimum salaries of other teachers in the public schools of the State."
Recommendation Morgan
"This Commission would recommend College in the preparation of teachers for Baltimore City and for the State."

LANGSTON UNIV. STRIKE LEADERS ARE SENT HOME
LANGSTON, O K LA.
(Special)—Dismissal of eleven strike leaders and suspension of three others ended a five day strike at Langston University here January 30.
A strike began Saturday when some 250 students in the college department walked out printing the following demands in large hand bills which they scattered over the campus and mailed throughout the state:
1. Insufficient number of teachers.
2. There are teachers receiving salaries who do not attend all their classes. They are receiving credit for three fourteen hours work and have not paid their entrance fee.
3. There is no organization on the part of the teachers.
4. There are instructors teaching most of the limit of their imagination.
5. The demand of "A" rating with insufficient teachers and poor equipment is unbalanced. Harmony existing between the dean of women and the student body.
Out Again
Tuesday, Dr. R. Rubert, president with the regents of the university, got the strikers to return to their work, but they walked out again when Dean S. L. Hargrove believed to be a sympathizer with the strikers, was summarily dismissed.
Students guarded the doors and patrolled the halls in their attempt to prevent any teachers and students from interting class rooms. A male student phoned the sheriff for aid, but this officer refused to come when the president would make no specific charges against the students.
In Again
Peace was finally established Wednesday when students returned to work.

1,000 MAY AID UNCLE SAM'S CENSUS
WASHINGTIN, D. C. — Scarcity of employment for colored women and girls makes the preparations for the taking of the 15th Census a matter of great interest.
At the peak of the work of the 14th Census 1820-1921, more than 1,100 colored clerks, typists, punch operators, messengers and the like, were engaged in the work of tabulating the enumerators' returns. Many of these have been unable to procure desirable work since the completion of the survey 30.12.22. These welcome the announcement that former employees will be given preference in the matter of appointments.
Until the Census Bill has passed both houses and has been signed by the Census will have to hold in abeyance all the detail plans for the hiring of temporary employees. The status of the Census Bill was 393 passed the House, May 21, 1928, and was reported in the Senate December 12, 1928. As the bill passed the House the date of taking the census was set for May 1, 1928. The bill is pending in the Senate with an amendment striking out May 1, 1928 and substituting November 1, 1929 as the date for taking the enumeration. This amendment added a requirement of the Department of Agriculture as a more appropriate time for the collection of Agricultural Statistics.

'MYSTERY RACE'
E. K. JONESTELLS
UR BAN LEAGUE
No One Yet Knows Where
Group Is Headed, Baltimore Group Hears
BOTH RACES HAVE
BIG OPPORTUNITY
That the Negro is a "mystery race" and that no one is yet certain just what its fate will be, Eugene Kinkle Jones, Executive Secretary of the National Urban League, told a group at the annual meeting of the Baltimore Urban League Thursday evening.
Mr. Jones, speaking on "The Negro's Opportunity Today," traced many vivid individual and group instances to show it is possible to completely batter down race prejudice and that there is towards an economic and civic equalization of opportunities in America.
"America," however, declared Mr. Jones, "is the only country left on the face of the earth where men are still burned at the stake. He was convinced, he said, from a study in the countries of the world and from the experience of a social worker, that race prejudice was an unnatural state of mankind and that the welfare of all races, the white as well as the black, depended upon its final eradication.
Dominant Problem
Calling attention to the fact that so dominant in the life of America had the Negro problem become that in the last election neither presidential candidate had the courage directly upon it. he cried in part:
"On the Sunday before election day, the Reverend Dr. Harry Emerson Fosseck, pastor of the Park Avenue Baptist Church on the subject of Unprejudiced Good-will said:
"In this country, since 1890, between three and four thousand people of all races have much of" making it a national disgrace without mitigation or excuse, is race prejudice. The people of one country left on earth where people are burned to death. "Some one will say that we must not belittle the difficulty of handling the race problem in this country."
"It is all very well to exalt good will, some one will exclaim, but the matter is not so simple as the fact that we do not have the home not only of blacks and whites but of every tongue and nation under heaven. We are poured together in great diversity in the business, we are diverse in tradition and temperament. The race problem in America is one of the most tainted in the world. That plays the most important part in this problem is the Negro and this problem is no longer a sectional problem. It is one in which the whole of America is concerned. The idea of the Negro being a drawer of water and a hewer of wood because of his incessity to absorb civilization is the basis of science. Intelligence tests and Negro achievement have belied the theories of prejudiced anthropologists and sociologists who began their investigations and believed ideas of the Negro inferiority.
"The Negro race is the great mystery race of mankind. The Oriental, though retarded for many centuries, because of their isolation policy have a record of past achievement. The Japanese have appraised the capacity of the Chinese and the Japanese mind for the understanding and appropriation of modern civilization for their own advantage. The great great great they had excelled in art and invention. The past history of the Negro has not been known and of course predictions as to his future possibilities could not be made on the basis of any known records of his own accomplishments in the past.
In recent years, however, students of past civilizations have uncovered evidence of a Negro art form, beginning of our modern culture. Even in the art world there is a profound current influence on modern art of the African Negro art of the 9th, 10th and 11th centuries. This connoisseur, is quoted as having said that but that the influence of African art on modern European art we would now be in a period of art decadence, in which we had not experienced since the period before. The Renalissance.
In America
"The Negro's - great opportunity today is in America. Afri . . . his homeland, has been partitioned by the powers of Europe and his rights have been denied him there. an increasing degree European civilization has been published over his best British South Africa is the best example of this rape of L.e Negro's lands; but East and West Africa, the Sudan and the Philippines, Belgian and Portuguese have developed systems which make it difficult for the Africans to have full possession of their lands and to influence to any great degree their political destiny.

Perry Howard Denies Irregularities In His Bank Account
$4,000 ALONE CAME
FROM PULLMAN CO.
Funds Came From Sale
Of U. S. Offices
WASHINGTON, D. C.—
Perry W. Howard, Republican national committeeman for Mississippi and suspended special assistant to the Attorney General denied Monday that there were any irregularities in his bank accounts tending to show that he had engaged in the barter of Federal patronage.
Records showing that Mr. Howard had deposited $31,000 more than it had been in the banks here between January 11, 1965, and July 1, 1967 were presented January 30 to its sub-committee of the Senate committee on post offices and post roads which been investigating the alleged barter. Federal patronage in southern states.
Mr. Howard stated that their. were nothing new in the evidence given to the court and that the government, had these records in the United States court at Jackson, Mississippi, when he and four other defendants were tried and acquitted of the crime, with the alleged sale of the office. United States marshal for the southern district of Mississippi, he said. He attributed the presentation of the evidence to the state's tee to a further effort in political persecution by the same people who were responsible for his indictment. Usual For Lawyer "Any lawyer, I said," said Mr. Howard, "will pass through his bank accounts in due course of business in a period of t. year or eightteen months an amount far in excess of $100,000. I appear that I am cultable because of the sum of money handled by me seems only to be an indication of the surprise of certain people that kind person should have any business or handle a large sum of money."
Four thousand dollars of the money deposited by Mr. Howard in his bank accounts came from the Pullman porters' union as a special assistant to the Attorney General, who assisted in the prosecution of Mr. Howard in Mississippi, testified before the Senate Committee on Labor as a special assistant for services in connection with trouble the company was having in combating efforts to organize a Pullman porters' union.
Mr. Howard denied the charge made by Mr. McGilchrist that a check of $500 had been given by Mrs. C. A. Whitington on the request of her appointment as acting postmaster at Tuwiler, Mississippi.
Mr. Howard stated that her husband had paid him the sum of $600 in cash, equiv. in a building on Pennsylvania, the deed to which is of record in the office of the Recorder of Dead of the District of Columbia and was in court at the trial in Jackson.
Called To Testify
Attorney General John G. Sargent and Mr. Howard will probably be called to testify before the Senate committee at later date. Senator W. W. Jackson of Iowa, chairman of the subcommittee, stated.
Mr. Howard was suspended from his post in the Department of Justice when he was indicted. Subsequently he was tried with four other defendants and accrued on one charge. There is another charge still pending. Wanted Him Fired "Why was he only suspended?" asked Senator Kenneth McKellar, Democrat, of Tennessee, at the committee hearing. "Why wasn't his disqualified?" he will call Attorney General Sargent to find out." The records relating to Mr. Howard's bank accounts were presented to the committee by the尔希尔.
"The Senate committee was also told that John T. Risher, who has an office at 1216 Pennsylvania ave. near Howard, handed $14,000 in his bank accounts during the same period.
Mr. Risher stated that there is no connection whatever between the two men handled by him and those handled by Mr. Howard. His comment on the testimony was that "Mr. McGillichis is the one who deposited the deposits and probably he knows where the money came from and where it went."
The committee was also told that R. B. Creager, white, Republican national committee for Texas, had protected hotels in that state by prohibition agency and that Fed. offices had been sold in that state.

GOD, ALL WISE FATHER OF HUMAN RACE
Only One Family In World
Elder Strachann Declares
In Sunday Sermon
GOSPEL, EXAMPLE
Times; "Father" 40 Times
NEIL. YORK. — "In order to please God, the man who believes in God is required to address God as the Allwise Father of the human race."
So declared Pastor M. C. Strachan last Sabbath morning in the eleventh clock service at Harlem. Second Sunday, the pastor's theme was "The Fatherhood of God." The message was based upon the text of Scripture found in Corinthians 8:8, which reads: "But to us there is but one God, the Father, MOV MO B of whom are all things."
"The Bible represents the universe as having in it but one family — only one, and that family is described in Holy script and in the Liaisons of unfallen worlds constitute one common brotherhood, and God the Father, in His wisdom, grace, power and will is represented as the one being who us all upon the stage of action.
"Jesus invariably referred to the Supreme Being as my father, your father, and your God. He used the expression fathar, while only four times does he say God. How significant is the fact! How significant are but two positions that men may take; one is that they are the creatures of chance and the vi tims of a cruel, heartless hate; other position that they are the children of a kind heavenly Father."

white man and held as slaves, treatment differed in no essential degree.
"Condition of life, slave and freedom," the union of the Indian and the Negro and the final extinction of Indian slavery was in part due to the absorbing of the Indian by the more numerous of the Negroes. "Proof of unity developed between these two races is seen in the fact that in certain Indian massacres, the Indians murdered every white man and spared every slave." The Secretary of War, 1822, say of Massachusetts Indians: "Very few of them are of unmixed blood, and the blood is mixed more frequently with Negroes than
Rhode Island
A report to the Secretary of War in 1822 said of Rhode Island that there were 429 Indians there but nearly all of them mixed in blood and color with Negroes in various degrees and shades. New York An early report to the State Legislature in New York declares, "During the time the Negroes were held as slaves in this state, the Indians largely intermarried with them in the Negro blood than of the Indian in their veins, and are, in fact, only Indian in name."
New Jersey
An-early history of New Jersey is quoted as saying, that the union between Indians and Negroes was commonly so frequent upon the features of many of the families of Negroes of the present day."
In Virginia
In Virginia, as early as 1784, whites sought to get possession of the lands that the grounds that the Indian blood was so largely mingled with that of the Negro race as to obliterate all striking features of Indian extrac-
In 1800, Thomas Jefferson said of the Pamunkey Indians of Virginia: "There are three men, then only two, that have more Negro than Indian blood in them."
Commissioners in charge of the first census, the Clerks in 1832 obeyed the orders in 1832: "An Indian, whether full or half blood, who has a female slave living in her head of a family and entitled to a reservation, also free blacks who have been admitted members of the Clerks are recognized as such by the tribe."
The Seminoles
The Seminoles of Florida are another tribe whose blood mingled freely with that of the Seminoles, and whose Seminole wars were not so much Indian wars as Negro wars. In many cases instigators were Negroes and the strategy was Negro strategy. The Seminoles were not so much headed to the Secretary of War in 1837. "I have ascertained that at the battle of Wahoo, a Negro was one of the most distinguished leaders, and the most white institutions were, made by Negroes headed by an Indian-Negro John Caesar." Whites made frequent excursions into Florida and carried away colony-bound Indians, and were members of an Indian family. Chootau. The Chootau tribe census of 1834 has records which read as follows: Indian and half Negro, five persons are in his family. James Blue, a Negro-Indian man, has records there are five persons in his family. William Lightfoot, a mulatto, half and half Negro, six are in his family. Mrs. Johnston points out, however, that many marriages among Indians and white people were not a matter

KINGSTON. Jamaica.—A columnist in a recent issue of the Jamaica Times spoke to a large crowd at the Kingston Race Course. He said as saying he will free Jamaica from its economic slavery in twenty-four months.
Under the present circumstances, Jamaica people leave for their fields at 8:30, arrive at 9 or 8:30 and start at 10. They quill work at 3 or 8:30. The 25-hour week is in vogue there.

Recently Remodeled At Cost Of $00.,000, Officials Sa-
WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. — The public was invited to a large which attended the funeral of Mr. Lottie A. Willbanks taxed the capacity of the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church to such an extent that its wails were cracked and the building was safe by a building inspector was branded as "absolutely and utterly false" by church officers. So the building inspector or other District Attorney of the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church recently, they say, there being no occasion for his doing so. There was no damage to justify this report, they say. The condition of the building, a safe condition, they state, having recently been remodeled at a cost of more than $00,000.
The truth is, they say, that the officials of the church discovered a fire in the upper auditorium unjointed. They ordered it repaired. Services were held in the lower auditorium. After the repair was made, services were held in the lower auditorium. The order to repair was given before the funeral of Mrs. Willbanks.

CHINESE KNOW ABOUT AMERICAN LYNCHINGS
ATLANTA, Ga.—The American people have the opportunity to do the world a great service if they can find a means by which diverse races may live side by side in mutual good will and helpfulness, said Bishop Francis J. McConnell, in a series of addresses on "The Wider Significance of the African Problem," delivered at Gammon Theological Seminary, this week.
"Some things in our American race relations are already discrediting Christianity in mission lands, as when in Mexico I saw a list of American lynchings printer and Armed Forces of General Huerta to stir that country to war against the United States, and again in China was confronted with the need as a reason why China should reject our civilization and our religion."

BAPTISM FULFILLS ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS
So Declares Dr. David E.
Over At Providence Baptist
Church
CITES CHILD BELIEF
Youngsters Better Material Than Their Adult Critics
The necessity of baptism as a fulfilment of all righteousness, was the theme of a sermon by the pastor, Dr. David E. Over, at Providence Baptist Church, Edmondson and Fremont avenues, Sunday morning.
Announcing that lack of time would not permit a full and exhaustive discussion on the different beliefs as to the methods of being baptized, the minister declared he had no criticism of any man's belief, but that he must follow the plan set forth in the Bible, inaugurated by Christ and approved by God.
"Christ was sinless," began the speaker, "and when He came to John to be baptized there was no necessity for it other than to fulfill all righteousness. As a divine ordinance it does not cleanse from sin, but can one fulfil righteousness without its
"Any man, woman or child who is sorry for sin, who believes and repents is eligible to be cast into the sea, permitting children to take the ordinance, and parents who stand in the way of their young who have met the requirements and better have millstones tied about their necks."
Pastor Over emphasized how much more reasonable it was to suppose the children believe than the adult. "There be those," he continued, "who look askance on children accepting Christ and seeking baptism. May we not believe than our children to school? How do they learn mathematics, history, geography, grammar? Simply because the teacher tells them it is not right. Now then, can't they believe in Christ if it is taught them?
"God is omnipotent, and yet I believe it is easier to bring about the certainty must require more striving of the Holy Spirit to change some of the set notions and sinful inclinations of the parents, and to teach them which are plurable and receptive," concluded the minister.

"PREACH THE WORD," SAYS DR. A. J. SMITH
Ministers Must Have Different Methods From Other Professions
"Preach the word," is the proper thing for ministers to do pointed out Rev. Dr. Arthur J. Smith at the M. E. P. Preachers Meeting at Sharp St. Community House on Wednesday morning, February 5.
According to Dr. Smith, "the idea of most all of the professions is to give people what they want. This is very good and in modern life the desire to be able to give people what they should be on the alert and up with the times, but they can not always be ready to give the people what they should have already been armed in Holy Writ." He advised them therefore, to preach the WORD to set forth in the Scriptures.
Rev. Dr. J. T. Colter, of Grace Presbyterian Church, was a visitor to the meeting and requested and urged all present to attend the Ministerial Assembly next day.

HOTEL PICKETED BY COMMUNISTS IN NEW YORK
NEW YORK—Three colored and three white workers were arrested Friday noon while picketing the Tip Toe Inn on East 14th street as a protest against that restaurant's practice of discrimination against Negroes.

The demonstration was organized by the Congress. Those arrested on O. Wilde Golden prison were the Harvey of the American Negro Labor Congress; Harold Williams and a young worker, Paterson. The three writers are trade unionists and members of the Trade Union Educational League. They are all sympathisers with the program the Congress and its fight against the Negro workers. They are Bertha Blalok, Sam Persily and Sam Horowitz.

Gallant Arm Started Romance Between Widow, 60, Swain, 55
"I Slipped Up On Street; His Strong Arm Caught Me; Then We Met For First Time; O, Well, Now We Are Married," Says Mrs. Rachel A. Payne.
Those who believe the wells of romance dry up early in life might read a page from a completed love affair between widow 54, and a widow 69, which had its beginning in a dashing incident of athletic prowess and ending in the marriage license office here this week.
The "blushing bride" is Mrs. Rachel A. Payne, 323 Otterbain street, and the "gallant swain" is James H. Johnson. The romance which brought these two together came about with a thrill which many a young co-ed would give a goodly portion of her life to experiences. Fate took a hand one day, she saw, and at an interruption of downtown streets, and at just the right moment, brought her and the man who is now her husband face to face.
It Won't Be A Day Off For Him February 14th
Just as she stepped from a curb and all but slipped up, she felt the strong arms of a man about her. She did not fall, no sneeze, but found herself pulsatingly looking up into the gallant eyes of James Johnson. Well, there was no harm in thank you, but she might have done the thanking in a kind of warm and enthusing way. Anyway, to make a long story short, or perhaps it made a short story long, they formed there on the spot an acquaintance which ripened into courtship and then marriage. The bride still avers that it was the same man who taught the thrill, all of which goes to show that strong arms still have their appeal at 60.
Women Get License
Mrs. Payne was in line this week with a group of younger women who applied for license. "Yes. I am a modern woman, like these young
MR. and MRS. JAMES H. JOHNSON women here. We come ourselves to get the license while the men are at work."
Others of the "modern women" group were Misses Mary Campbell to marry Joseph J. Smith; 22; Julia Hughes, 33, to marry William H. Williams, 1517 Banks街; Marian Green, M. Winans, to wed Gerald Henderson, M. Winans, and Leona Davidson to marry War, M. Wrington to marry Station Mad. Ask why they, instead of the young men, were securing the licenses, some of the young women stated that it was just a "thrill." Some of them stated that it was just a detail which a woman could do as she did other things about the house. "She goes to market, don't she?" retorted one very young thing.
Some Refused Licenses
But all who go to the license bureau, according to the clerk, do not go away with a thrill. There was temporary set-back at least to a number which applied this week. Some of them are so young that they have not yet sufficient knowledge of a degree of that that they under 18 years of age cannot secure a license without parental consent.
Among those who were turned away this week by the clerk were Frank Watts. 22, who applied for a license to marry Mary E. Thomas. 17, James H. Jones, to marry B. John H. Luther to marry 23, to marry H. Jones, and Mary Cummings, 17, to marry Harry Briggs. 21.

Churchman Discusses Religion And Education At Monthly Meeting
BIBLE AND SCIENCE
"Creation" Story Crude Attempt. To Explain, He Says
That the Bible account of creation is a crude attempt of the ancients to account for the universe and that it should not interfere with reason or the discoveries of modern science is the conclusion of Rohbib Mort Lazaron, who spoke on "Religion and Education" at the School-masters meeting in the Y. M. C. A., Saturday evening.
Prefacing his statement with, "Let me say, please, I believe in God, the greatest blessing of my life is a consciousness of God." Rabbi Lazaron says the discovery of the dispute the Bible account of creation, which is the feeble attempt of the old fathers to account for the universe, then our attitude to the Bible should be that it is not a text book of science.
"We should not fear," he said, "to apply reason to our creeds. The one reason and fundamental thing of the Bible," he added, "is its teachings of God."
Rabbit Lazaron emphasized in his address that the goal of education and religion is the same — the perfection of a well-rounded character. But that goal is not corollate there is no true education. "Unless one's accumulation of knowledge," he said. "is not chastened with the spiritual forces one is not fitted for life." He said a false notion the theory of the environmentalist that putting the child in a happy situation will make it amenable to any direction, and the theory of the eugenist that heredity will determine its inclinations. He contended, however, that one should teach children moral forces, will give it a well-rounded character which will find its place in the world.

Stomach Disorders First Revealed by Coated Tongue
Your tongue is nothing more than the upper end of your stomach and intestines. It is the first thing your doctor looks at. It tells at a glance the condition of your digestive system—and physicians say that 90% of all sickness start with stomach and bowel trouble.
A coated tongue is a danger signal of those digestive disorders which lead to so many kinds of serious illness. It tells why the least exertion tires you out; why you have pains in the bowels, gas, sour stomach, dizzy spells.
Coating on the tongue is a sign that you need Tanlac—the medicine which has helped thousands who were physical wrecks from stomach and bowel troubles—who had "tried everything" in vain and about given up hope.
Tanlac contains no mineral drugs; it is made of barks, herbs and roots. Get a bottle from your druggist today. Your money back if it doesn't help you.

"About two years ago, I was in ill health. I suffered a great deal with my side and back. My back was so weak I could hardly stand it if I had to stand any length of distance. At time I would have very headaches.
"I read of Cardul, and decided to try it. I have never regretted it for it helped me so much. The pain and soreness left my side, and I quit having the headache. My back felt so much better. I took Cardul off and on for a year. Now I am in good health; have been in a year."

but he does not burn." Burns—"Duncan Davison," but At Howard University a kissing lad and lassie drew a 10 day suspension last week. Burns, who was a graduate as well as verse," says Byron in "Don Juan," but four Howard University professors under a number of charges, including kissing, were dismissed last year. Howard seems afflicted with a kissing bug, May the students have immersed themselves in the poetry of Shelley's "Love's Philosophy." They see the hills kiss the heaven, the waves clasp one another, the sunlight leaping upon the earth and the sea. They see the all these kissings worth "If thou kiss not me?" "Kissin' is the key of love" and as the author of "Coming thou the Rye" admits, one no one ought to cry, "our sweetest memorial" said old man Brubaker. Parquar submits that "kissing goes by favor" and the latest blues melody warns us to "Take chin those lips away." W. E. B. DuBois in the current issue of the Crisis Magazine says he hopes girls at Fisk are permitted to smoke. That's shocking enough to those whose age has chilled the blood, but even before this can happen, the crisis is a gesture to lift the ban on public cocitation.

Apology
Bishop Francis J. McConnell told an audience this week that lynching in America embarrasses missionaries abroad. Mexicans and Chinese reply to proselyting parishioners showing them the annual lists of lynchings and burnings at the stake. Times haven't changed much, according to Mr. James Hugo Johnston, whose article on Negroes and Indians is quoted in the New York Times. Early missionaries to the Indians were embarrassed when they admonished the savages against having more than one wife. In 1801, an Indian so rebuked pointed out an Indian wives' complaint. Another missionary complained of white men in Indiana in 1818 who had half a dozen Indian wives. Nearly every soldier who went out live on the frontier had one or more squaws, and the Indians were also wives. Our white folks' theory of Christianity is high and lofty. Their practice in dealing with colored people is so far below it, that missionaries are now apologizing now for 111 years that we know of, and for centuries before that which we do not know about. There is every likelihood they will continue to apologize for their short comings during all the centuries ahead.
Bishop Francis J. McConnell told an audience this week that lynching in America embarrasses missionaries abroad. Mexicans and Chinese reply to prorogely passages that them the annual lists of lynchings and burnings at the stake. Times haven't changed much, according to Mr. James Hugo Johnston, whose article on Negroes and Indians is quoted in another column. Says Mr. Johnston "Especially when they admonished the savages against having more than one wife." In 1801, an Indian so rebelled pointed out an influential white man with five wives. Another missionary compelled a white man in India to say a belief half a dozen Indian wives. Nearly every soldier who went out to live on the frontier had one or more squaws, and the same was true of traders. Our white folks' theory of Christianity is high and lofty. Their practice in dealing with blacks is as far below that missionaries must continually apologize. They have been apologizing now for 111 years that we know of, and for centuries before that which we do not know about. They will continue to apologize for their short comings during all the centuries ahead.
Figures and Figures
During the month of December, says the Houston Informer, 10 Negro undertakers buried 44 Negroes. Death certificates were signed in 40 instances by colored physicians and in 104 instances by white physicians. We would like to show these figures show the "Negro Doctor is superior." We would like to believe this is true, but it is not necessarily a correct conclusion from the facts in hand.
The truth may be that the greater part of medical care in Houston is in the hands of whites. In this case they should be expected to have a larger death list.
During the month of December, says the Houston Informer, 10 Negro undertakers buried 147 Negroes. Those certificates were signed in the office by color physicians and in 108 instances, by white physicians.
Says the Pittsburgh Counter, these figures show the "Negro Doctor is superior." We would like to believe this is true, but it is necessarily a correct conclusion from the facts in the book. The truth may be that the greater part of medical practice in Houston is in the hands of whites. In this case they should be expected to have a larger death list. We believe the physician would like to have his professional ability judged by the mortality rate of his patients in a single month. December may just have been a bad month. We believe in the Newvo physician. The last Baltimore doctor has no other. But we do not need to bolster his case by false logic.
The Power Monopoly
Ex-Governor Gifford Pinchot of Pennsylvania renders a public service in his pamphlet just issued on the "Power Monopoly." It shows that 41 holding companies control for 84 of the electric power generated in the United States. Of these 41, 8 are controlled by General Electric, 7 by Insul, 4 by Morgan, 2 by Mellon, 1 by Blysee and one by Doberty of oil fame. The Consolidated Gas and Electric Company and is one of these 41 companies in the combine. With this giant power monopoly goes also a central banking group which monopolizes public information, political parties, public schools and thousands of people. In these controlled companies is watered and prices are charged for gas and electricity far beyond the cost of production plus a reasonable profit. The central which costs a housekeeper $14. Battery costs $3 at Niagara Falls and $1.5 in Canada where the public owns the power plant. Despite the gigantic water power plant at Conowingo, current generated there can not be transmitted to Baltimore which pays the high cost of electricity. The current and $8 cents a cubic meter for gas.

Virginia University at Richmond is in a drive to raise $150,000 for a science hall. Richmond's white folk were asked to make a good will contribution as a memorial to the "old Navy New York." The memorial would be in the form of a bronze tablet, on which would be inscribed, side by side, the names of the old Negro servant whom he wished to honor. A sufficient monument and cash may be stirred up to erect a mummion monument in front of the new dormitory.

To the Editor:
To the "passer," you surely must be crazy.
Just because you have no race of your own, you think you are someone else. You know Negro and anyway there are just as many dark Negro progressing in this world and more than you so-called whites. The reason you get and want a race of your own is we cared and afraid to fight for your liberties.
HOST OF SWEET BLACK WOMEN, Kansas City, Mo.
All The Intelligence is Not On One Side In This Amalgamation Debate. Despite The Assertion Of Our Washington Reader.
The good news is I read an article in a recent issue of your paper, written by a man who has passed for white for thirty-five years. His story is such a lot, so much so, that he talks about solving the race problem by a slow process of amalgamation. He also points out the advantages that you can meet in this Negro world. Amalgamated Negro would waste a single hour upon such an impractical idea?
We hear much about equality, rights, discrimination, and race. We don't talk about it? Judging from the past, I should think that we are going to continue to write articles and make speeches and resolutions. Laws can be made, and the Negro can be a gift. Equality to be achieved must be won.
Although I have not the power of prophecy, I can name two avenues through which the Negro must be educated, and, in the second place the Negro must build up a firm economic foundation. We may so write pages of history, but we may also single inference of an ignorant mass attaining great power. I am thinking that the greatest *diaepeat* that the Negro has to prove the jointity of Negroes are still medieval in mind. Instead of trying to solve the problems of the material world about us, we look upward to some other world. As to the article to which I referred, I think the best thing the author could do by way of advice is to spend one dollar for a piece of rope and go to some quiet place and hang himself. LEWIS B.

I have read an article in your paper about a supposed slave who suppressed Negro questioning.
I don't agree with him. We had 300 and more years of slow amalgamation and it has not opened up any new frontiers. We need to meet changing, it is the white man's heart. White men of Mr. Darrow's type are the exceptions. All passers of this man's type are very biased toward Negroes more so than real white men. I would like to know if he could tell why they have so many millions of poor whites in this country. The white man in this country is jealous of the black, not because of his color, but because he is too successfully with him and is proud. If you think they hate you, let a large number try to leave this country and watch him stop you. What is the black to do? States are doing all it can to keep Negroes from going to South and Central American countries. What we need is money, not amalgamation. What the American places their highest premium on. I glory in the hundreds of Negroes who leave this country yearly, for lands where justice and equality are needed. Since the immigration of the Negro north is bringing the south to its senses, an exodus from this country will bring the whole United States

Dr. Young Thinks His Letter To The AFRO Changed The Attitude Of The Doctors Friedenwald Towards Colored Patients. To the Editor:
In reply to the letter published in last week's issue of your paper, written by the Doctors Friedenwald, I wish to state that instead of the article to which they referred in the issue of January 26, 1929, being malicious slander and contrary to facts, I am forced to say that the facts as stated in their letter are merely an effort to smooth over he affair by distorting the facts as they really happened.
The patient has absolutely assured the writer that the question of fee was not advanced by her but by the doctors' secretary, who asked her was she able to pay ten dollars for the examination. To this question the affirmative answer was given.
The patient accepted the advice concerning free treatment at the clinic pleasantly merely to relieve her own embarrassment and also that of the doctor's office.
The patient in this particular case was referred by me, about two years ago, to a throat specialist at whose office she was courteously received and where she paid ten dollars for the examination, so there is no doubt of her not being well acquainted with the fees of a specialist. Furthermore she absolutely denies asking for a cheaper examination fee so stated in their letter.
He published February 29, 1929.
How, I am not telling an untruth when the doctors' secretary told me I should have told her the patient was colored when I made the appointment.
I say I am not telling an untruth when I say I am not telling the truth when they treat anyone, regardless of race or color, as stated in their article of last week. I treat all patients regardless of race or color. I am glad to know that the article of January 26, 1929, described of race and color, I am glad to describe by their secretary, and furthermore. I am glad to know that perhaps the next person who enters the office will be financially able, who enters their office, may be without benefit referred to clinics. Everyone has right to run his office as he deserves, let it be understood that I am not trying to force my business to be understood let it be understood that the Negro people also do not desire to be treated by anyone who wants to see them one place, not another.

This Militant Reader Glories In His Color And Doesn't Want "To be "White" For Any Purpose To the Editor:
Today I read with disgust, an article in white paper, telling of a man's years. It is degrading enough to the race for us to know that there are four thousand "deserters to the race" a year, but here we have a man who actually boasts of
If this same man had spent the past thirty-five years of his life fighting for the race now, he would be in one of those "fairly good jobs" that he says are possessed by Prof. Kelly Miller and others, and I wager my life he would like. He would be better than whatever position he now holds.
He says that he passes for white because of the oppression of the black man, and if the colored race is oppressed, it is because of the four thousand deserts. because of just such feeble-minded idolatry as the white man, to remove the color and the black man can have all the blessings of the world. Sure this must have been written in a manne remoire. Why not in the color? It is nothing to be ashamed of.
I repeat sir, that oppressions will cease when church (we have too many now) and more for a good military school than such a man as this one.
We make military leaders of our young men and they will make of themselves racial leaders. Give us less ministers and more ministers for our race will automatically follow.

Mr. Wellington Adams, Critic Who Reviewed His Concert Here.
While the writer appreciates the apparent compliment given us as a "composer of the first rank" by the APRO-AMERICAN rep. of the Providence Baptist Church and, that a reporter should express himself as opinion dictates, nevertheless, we may be able to clear a few statements. We should consider a small audience. According to the size of the lower auditorium and the receipts of the evening, which is the best gauge of success, it was satisfactory, the pastor stating besides that many of his mem
b. The word "draggy" to our mind is rather indefinite, mistaken perhaps for "inanimate", since Dumfries poems are "inanimate", since Dumfries is Doe suggest in their very nature, quiet music of a sedate character, which is given to them. They could not be sung other than tranquilly due to their text and musical style. We received a most cordial response and generous reception from the audience which is attested to by the pastor's glowing tribute and the shower of congratulations at the close of the day.
d. —(I)—We are billed as a "composer," not as a "concert tenor" solos or the "du" epidemic) as promised, we rendered our own program in full but it seemed to please our harriers even so. It was a concert tenor solos of the high standing who in their reviews of almost the identical program, said not a word about vocals, but the instrument. The actor of the compusions performed since that was the main idea of the presentation. (II) It was possible for the performer's position at the piano, due to the fact that an upright piano could not be located on such a narrow platform in use. A grand piano was the proper instrument to enable the performer to face the audience, in the intimate, which is the case in most of our churches today. Either our back had to be turned towards the audience, or the former as the better of the two things. Even then we were partially turned as the piano was one-quarter as the better of the two instruments as much as possible. No blame there.
We'll also admit that the piano used was not to our liking for such a program, which any real critic could really find fault in. First hearing of the silent key and faulty pitch. WELLINGTON ADAMS, Washington, D. O.
Cornell's Course In Hotel Administration Reminds This Hotel Chef That Our Own University might Also Follow Suit. To the Editors. Twenty-nine young men attended Cornell University short summer course for hotel employees which completed its first session the past summer.
The four year course in hotel administration which course now has been given in the 1922 has gained such universal approval in the hotel industry that summer work was instituted to make Cornell's facilities available to those who could prove willing to work, but who could not take the longer course. This is the information given the writer by Prof. Michael He further stated, that in addition to the classroom work, nearby hotels were investigated, special lectures were given to the men on the course, and the hotel staff, steward, heater, waiter, waiter, chef and matre de hotel down to hater in a private home. It would cover subjects in the food and service department. However a through knowledge of all departments would assist them in getting the hotels in foreign countries which would employ members of the race in any department in the hotel business. It states that from early morning until late afternoon the food students are at it. They holt and roast and fry and toast in small quantities at first, and later in large portions. They study the properties of foodstuffs, where they are grown, how they are graded, packed and stored, and how they can be seen up the mind of the average culinary artist.
Further, they are instructed as to how to buy, and list food on the menus and how left overs should be used. Laboratory work is given in the university cafeterias. All of these studies, including inspection trips to nearby hotels, are conducted in the summer and account courses at this summer session.
Weekly luncheons are given which help the men to become more familiar with the hotel and observations from many sizes and types of hotels they inspect. He said that the closing of the hotel last summer was formed and included some of the leading hotel executives as members. He said that the summer course students displayed a seriousness of purpose and will learn that it was a real pleasure to work with them.
He predicted that next summer would see the hotel doubled in enrollment. Investigation developed through another source that a number of larger hotels paid all the expenses of employees selected. That's how interested the hotel man is to have trained men. To me our own universities might also put in hotel administration courses. We have keepers in keeping giants as the Louisville man suggested.
Washington 300th City To Adopt Community Chest Idea—Right Minded Citizens Willing To Become Their Brother's Keeper.
BY KELLY MILLER
The good citizens of Washington have commenced a direct drive to the Community Chest Drive for the national capital among the citizens. The idea is new to us although it has been in operation in many of our great cities. During the past three weeks every thing in Washington has been adjourned to the Community Chest Drive. We have even suspended political discussions, and we have joined the membership of Dahoney, of the registration of the Treasury, or even the recorded news of the negro has not yet begun to arrange for his inaugural balls. Negro politicians have commenced a political agitation until the drive is over.
Irrelated Elements
This Community Chest idea means more to the city of Washington than to the country. We have here at the capital a greater variety of irrelated elements in our civic life than in the country. The Jew and gentle, Catholic and Protestant, white and colored, local citizen and office and community, on which to stand. We have no politics to engage and enliven the common interest of the citizens, elements as they have in the states. There is not even the process of great business and industry in the state. All are dependent upon the federal government with a paternal dependence. Our residents hold their political affiliations in the communities from which they come. We are dependent on the general life of the community and leaves the ordinary citizen little to do but look to the source of knowledge for whatever he thinks he needs.
Appeal To Conscience
But now comes the Community Chest with it appeal to the community, and the whole population to bestir itself by way of voluntary activity to relieve the burden of care, most midsit. People who do the same thing at the same time and understand an appreciation and an enduring - sympathy among all the participants in the activity, the Community Chest will leave the citizens of the national capital in closer touch with feeling than could otherwise be brought to pass.
In 300 Cities
The Community Chest project has been proved and approved by the community. The underlying idea is severely simple. It operates on the plan of the syndicate to manage the waste of duplication and overtapping and inexperienced management in business and industry, to organize and agencies for the relief of the poor, the sick and distressed by them, and agencies ordinarily operate independently of each other and make each its ind- apprentice result, the ordinary citizen who is charitably dispossessed finds himself besieged for charity for charitable institutions, good, indifferent and bad; but he has not time to discriminate and to make imprisonment of their rela-
Begging Circulars
Every mail brings begging circulars or besieging a constant interview and harassed by artful forms of confusion. The mail either refuses to give to any or shoves out a meager disagreeable intuffer. Thus the true aim of charity is frustrated by its machinery of operation.
Public Protected
The Community Chest, on the other hand engages with the community and confusing claims, to budgetize their expense accounts and to present one appeal to the community to operate them all for the space of one year. It also makes a just appraisal of the community's worthy ones, and protects the public from imposition by those which are incompetently managed and controlled.
Every Citizen Solicited
Usually it is left to the rich and well-to-do to support the charities that have been benefited ought to be the right and proper that those who have been benefited ought to be the right and proper that the firmness of the weak. But the poor as far as possible should be benefited, and the poor as far as they are able. The Community Chest undertakes to help the poor with relief as far as they are able with request that each will contribute according to his several abilities. The Community Chest and the poor widow puts in her mite. The valuation is appraised from the standpoint of motive rather than a amount.
Chief Beneficiary
The Negro constitutes that stratum of society in which the bulk of the population is white, therefore becomes the chief beneficiary of the Community Chest project. He always derives from the Negro community which he contributes thereto. The race is everywhere too prone to rely upon the good and charitably and short on resources to their rescue in times of distress and suffering. It is long on dependence and short on resources. Negroes operate everywhere without regard to race, creed or color, but expects each citizen to contribute according to race, creed or color, from it according to his needs.
Common Platform
The races, religions and creeds of the various cities where it operates and the common platform upon which all can stand without regard to the perplexing questions which divide and need neither race, religion nor creed. There is absolute democracy in the realm of suffering and discontent, and that the Community Chest project is the most democratisating institution to be found where the education of people in education or politics in developing a common civic consciousness and in uniting all the people upon one program for the common platform.

Poem This Week
WE LIVED AND LOVED TOGETHER
We have lived and loved together
Through many changing years;
We have shared each other glades
And wept each other's tears.
I have never known a sorrow
that could make me laugh,
For the thy smile can make a Summer
Where darkness else would be.
Life leaves that fall around us
And we are the traitor们 that darken
When the cloud of sorrow lowers,
And though many such we've known
Too prone, alas! to range,
We both can speak of one, love,
Whom time could never change.
We have lived and loved together
Through many changing years;
We have shared each other glades
And wept each other's tears.
And let us hope the future

A Sunday afternoon talk to students at Juskegee by Dr. R. W. H. This is the season of the year when business men take account of the inventory. They check up their goods. They see what they have on hand and what they have sold during the season. How much money they have on hand, and how much more? they owe; then I think people as individuals should check up on themselves. I have checked up on myself at the university many years to see where I stood. There were a lot of things my father had to do this Year's day. He used to work a few hours at a little hard work. He would clean up and grub up for a meal to have a good dinner. He would be sure to have some money in his pocket. On New Year's day. He would be out of debt; if not he would pay off something. in the debt he owed. He would buy with a good slate. Not much education he had, but good hard sense.

They thought perhass the school would be better off without him. Some of these boys were getting worse and worse. Their parents were not helping themselves. They were getting worse and worse. Their parents thought they were winking at us and putting it over on everybody here. One boy, by way of defense, made a mark or marker than most boys in my class. I have done better than most boys. But we do not judge you by what others do. we judge you by what you do, and God judges you on what you do. It is not what somebody else has accomplished. It is what you have accustomed to record.

"Men Are the Born Love Crooks"
(From N. Y. News)
Man's heliocentric belief in a double standard of morality has furnished more causes for divorce and separation than H. Colman, prominent woman leader and president of the New York Federation of Women's Clubs, when interviewed at her home, 118 West 42nd Street. Continuing she said: "The average man who home does not find pleasure in life life never stops to consider the absence of a child due to his inability or his negligence to provide them. He does, however, think foolishly that he can provide an outside home
"Such a man usually fails and, thereby, becomes a double failure both at home and on the outside finds out, and he adequately provides for one home. The colored man makes a terrible mistake in imitating his white brother in this double state of morality so because of his real status."

When I think that for thirteen years I had to get up at Atlanta to work in modern culture, the hour of breakfast in the office. But at Fisk alone, there a moveable breakfast hour from seven to seven thirty, with students who may go and come, within these Men students smoke on the Fisk women. I hope they do, too. The men and women mingle quite naturally, and meet at times and places, which would have sent us to the penitentiary in my day, and make friends, and quarring under the MacKenzie regime. All this does not solve the problem people who can not be been required to. But it gives one a sigh of human relief to see baby nurses and last from grownup Negro students.
Underwood, the Great

was announced by the Senate gallery one day when the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill was : It was a few months before a Presidential election, and the injustice, were going through the motions of passing the bill to satisfy the Negroes, who democratizes like "Tom" Lincoln. Democrats end. One day Underwood, who had taken no part in the debate, arose, looked straight at Lodge, the Republican, serve notice that if the majority persists in trying to pass the bill there will be no further legislation. Lodge said in a word or two more he sat down.
Lodge disappeared in the clockroom. Fifteen minutes later it was announced that the bill had been abandoned. The little statement from Underwood had been more convincing than 100 speeches from other Democrats.

Take Your Own Measure
"Take your own measure and decide what you are going to do. Somebody else may work ten times as hard as you; he may no have the background and training and other things you have had. It is where you come from — the distance you have accomplished in life, that counts. That is the way we are judged. Judge yourself. It is time for self-examination, now."
"I know that many people say, 'Don't make resolutions.' Yes, we break them. Every rule in Tuskegee is broken. Teachers break many of them, and students, perhaps, a great many more; and the Principal breaks some. But we keep our standards just the same."
"We are going to set our stakes ahead and strive all the time to reach them. We have our mark and we are going to strive to keep that mark. It is the same with prohibition. It is the same with the rules of murder. Nobody is going to repeal the law because it is broken. We are going to set our stakes higher."

Count Tolstol
"A priest once came along and stopped Count Tolstol. The priest said to the Count that he was going to ask him a question. The old Count was plowing oxen, and he was barefooted. The priest said to him, 'What would you do if some one would tell you that tomorrow at twelve o'clock you were going to die?' 'Do you want to know what I would do,' he said to the priest. The priest said, 'Yes.' The Count said, 'First, let me ask what you would do?' The priest said, 'I would go to the Cathedral and pray until that hour.' The Count said, 'I wouldn't. I would keep on plowing and do the best plowing I could. I would just plow.' That is the way to live. Count Tolstol had been doing his best in plowing oxen.
"What are you going to do next year? Plow? Whatever? you are doing, do your best. That is all. God says that is all that is necessary. This is all the resolution you need to make: 'God helping me in 1928, I am going to do my very best, whatever betides.'"
Heroes Known And Those Unknown
The presence in Baltimore thus week of Lionel Licorish, loudly acclaimed hero of the Vestris disaster, brings to mind that this is still a world where courage and unusual bravery demands respect.
Out there on the stormy sea, with men and women dying like rains, this man rose to the sublime heights of human development where men count not their own welfare or lives in comparison with those they may help. The deeds of Licorish typify that spirit which most of us cherish in serious moments, but which a selfish world makes us forget except under extreme stress.
A vivid sea catastrophe brings home to us the horror of death and the sublimity of heroism, but every day in the average community there is enough heroism displayed by unselfish men and women—did we but know of it—to keep aflame our courage and faith in humankind.
Life, itself, is a kind of sea with its tides, it oddies and it storms. Like Licorish, most of us are called upon sometimes to play the part of heroes. Like him, sometimes we rise to the occasion; sometimes we slink into our shell; and see terrorized humans go to the bottom unaltered.
Sometimes it is a husband, out of work, with wife and baby at home. How easy would it be for him to leave it all, but he sticks. Sometimes it is a mother, working by day and staying awake by night to save the life of a helpless mite; sometimes: it is the feeling of a temptation where dishonest gold glistens or passion fires the body. And sometimes it's facing the nob — or worse, friends against whom you must speak out with courage to save others from destruction. How often have you been called upon to play the part of hero or heroine? How often have you risen to the occasion — or fallen to the depths?
All hall to the spirit which makes a Lcorish; and all hall to that same spirit which keeps the souls of men proceeding in the right direction.
Prosperity And Laundry Girls
With more than 1,000 women and girls employed in our city's laundries it would seem that some of the local welfare agencies would find this group a fertile field in which to render a service.
In a conference this week with a delegation of these employees, it developed that, while car fares and the general cost of living are increasing, the wages for this class of employees are still far below what they should be. With such an unorganized group there is little chance, unless some organization take up their cause, of their condition being bettered.
It is found that girls are working for wages ranging from $7 to $15 weekly with a median wage of about $9. In Baltimore, $12.50 is regarded the lowest possible weekly wage upon which any girl of any race and under any condition can properly support herself.
One of the interesting angles of the laundry situation here, and no doubt in any other large city, is the fact that modern machinery and efficiency are making the laundry and cleaning field one of the most profitable in communities. One young woman with a calculating mind declared that she figured that she completed work which, calculated at current price, charges to patrons, brought the laundry from $9 to $12 daily. And since labor is the 1.25-gest factor in laundry service, it can readily be understood how unfair some of these workers are being treated in the division of what they make.
Here would be a profiled field of research for some such organization, a stance. An intelligent study of the situation presented in a co-operative group of co-workers would probably help improve conditions, we believe, and do a laudable service group where it is urgently needed.
What Will They Ask Herbert Hoover?
The South American problem is in hand. The farmers are sure of their own Congress. Business is sitting pretty for the next four years. What will those leaders having the ear of Albert Hoev: ask him for the group? There should, of course, be no new race group, but there is, nevertheless, and even Negro farmers have additional problems which white farmers is also indication that those in the saddle of Negro leadership in the Republican party are not doing jobs; and if they are, they will not have to look farer to see that the group has more pressing problems than those growing out of trade relations to the south of us. The one outstanding problem with administrator, and administrator, will easily understand, is the problem of job distribution of the masses of people employed by the government. In private industry, of course, the expected action is direct action, but the government could well set an example of equitable distribution of government work through
No one, not even white partisans, will deny the fact that our military machinery fails to operate according to law where colored men and women are concerned to believe that nearly one tenth of all governmental employees would work in the military and would jobs from the cabinet down barring them on account of color. Lynchings, segregation and discrimination draw more fire from leadership than the problem of jobs and wages for the masses. American soldiers not reach half so far into the heart of Nso life. Go into any factory, deny employment, governmental department, and you will see desks teen-ing with white stenographers and administrators. With our ratio of population, every time you count ten white emigrants comes the case. YOU WILL become one colored, and when that becomes the case, YOU WILL OTHER RAGE PROBLEM. IF THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT WOULD SEE YOU OUT CRIMINATION OF JOB DISTRIBUTION ON A BASIS OF OPERATION, WOULD SEE FOLLOW SU
It will be interesting to see how our leaders handle this matter, especially in seeing how the promotion of job holders in the government compares at the end of *Honorary* work, what it is now, and the setting.

Lionel Licorish, hero of the ill-fated Vestibula, the colored man who saved 20 lives in the ship wreck will be the star of the movie. After movies and sound pictures will give everybody a close up idea of the disaster. It will be a pleasure to meet one of the characters to face and hear tell his story.
He is very frank in saying he does not want to see water again except to drink, but his simple acceptance his exploits in the sea convinced his auctioneer that he had terror for it. It was just natural for him to go about the whole business as he did.
As the vessel was too near gone to launch another lifeboat he unhilightened, leaving it for the waves to pluck it from the deck as the liner went down. Before that he swam out and waited for everything to happen as he landed, swam back to the life-bead and began his work of rescue, which took him back into the water repeatedly as he saw passengers chining to floating debris, most from too far gone to attempt swim-
Every one of his rescues was a deed of horisom, but it is clear he never thought of it in that way, and is now astonished to find himself garded as wonderful enough to claim as paid moments of a vaudeville hill.

Dewey Washington In
Regent Movietone Act
George Dewey Washington, baritone, who has gained great favor among picture theatre audiences by his personal appearances t.l.o.t. about the truth. He is a feature of the program at the Moyetone next week, where he is featured in the latest Movietone act.
Mr. Washington's voice is one of the treasures that has been presented through his career. His comedy characterization of a colored minstrel is in strange contrast with the splendid quality of his voice. His humor is also golden voice from the golden west."
"BROWNSKIN MODELS" ACCLAIMED AT ROYAL
"BROWNSKIN MODELS" ACCLAIMED AT ROYAL
Miller Show Well Received
Scenic Novelties And Costumes Draw Applause
Field glasses, binoculars, and other optic aids were in evidence at the Royal Theatre this week, where Irvin Miller's "Brownskin Models," leading exponents of the public are doing a mall order, business.
But don't get the idea that there is nothing else in the show but the models because there's George Crawford, a comic of no mean ability. He plays a character in another gentleman of the cork, insures a 99-440-100 per cent, pure brand of humor into the vehicle that brings forth genuine laughter from the cash clients. Crawford and Blackburn in the movie have a poor year to good advantage and the latter repeats his diagnosis of the gastric juices with an original touch that clicks. Crawford makes use of good voice inflection in his imitation of a backwards mouth in the movie In Form. And remember Sam Palme, the joy boy who whistles, sings, dances and plays the uke, all with equal facility, stopping a few seconds of performance? Paige has an act that is unmistakably of big-time callibre. Hot hoofing is also provided by Charlie Saltus and Willie Brown, familiar to Baltimore the theatregoer, shows that she has lost none of her charm and is ably assisted by Charlie Sherrord and Chaffie Patterson, a clean-cut pair of straight men that can sing.
Billy And Blanche

The only conflict in the story of the robbery comes from accounts given a representative of the AFRO AMERICAN FOUNDATION, the proprietress of the building. The proprietress told n AFRON that when the lights went out she upstairs and called to her to器 to see what she candles, that she got no reply when she knocked nor when she called. She went back downstairs and lighted a candle. Fraziez's story is that the young woman to the door and one of the robbers slammed it in her face and that she went back downstairs, secured a candle and came back upstairs when she heard the scuffing. As far as could be learned, the young woman made no alarm.
Officers
Officers of the bank include: Dr. S. L. Warren, chairman of the board; C. G. Spaulding, president; D. Erierson, vice-president; D. Clyde Derrill, vice-president; Britton Clerk, vice-president; Dr. W.

Appeal Segregation Case To The Supreme Court
700 BARRED FROM LAWYER JAILED N. C. THEATER BY PEEVED JUDGE
WASHINGTON, D. C. — The decision of the Court of Appeals on the District of Columbia upholding the validity of covenants to prevent the ownership or occupancy of property by colored persons does not dispose of the questions raised in the two cases decided by that court last Monday. That is the opinion of counsel who represented the appellants. The two cases will be carried to the Supreme Court of the United States for final determination. The decision does not in any sense touch upon any of the points that were attempted to be urged by way of distinction, nor before the Court of Appeals, said Attorney George E. C. Hayes, of counsel for the appellants.
Louis Marshall
He commented on the fact that in arguing the cases before the Court of Appeals, Louis Marshall, of New York, who was retained by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, pointed that the question of the covenants restraint on alienation, a restraint on trade and contrary, to the public policy of the United States had not properly been before the court in previous cases and were not passed upon by the Supreme Court of the United States when it failed to take jurisdiction in the Curls.
Writ of Certiorari
Counsel for appellants expressed the belief that the Supreme Court will allow a writ of certiorari and pass upon these points and reverse the judgment of the Court of Appeals

Girl 15. Must Serve Life
NEW ORLEANS, La. Feb. —(ANP) —Mabel Babel, 15-year-old girl sentence to life imprisonment for the Criminal District Court, for the killing of a man some six months ago, was denied a new trial by the Supreme Court.
In its decision Monday the Court of Appeals followed its former decisions in segregation covariant cases and upheld judgments. The court also ordered straining colored persons from owning or occupying property which they had bought and ordering them to vacate the premises.
The suits were based on agreements between the property owners providing that no part of their property shall be used, occupied by or sold, conveyed, leased, rented or given to colored persons.
Option
The court decided, opinion written by the Van Orsan, said that it found nothing in the covenants to distinguish them under consideration in previous cases.
Option to Vaccate
The appurtenances in one of the cases was Henry A. Cornish and his wife, Mrs. Allye N. Cornish. They purchased No. 2328. First stair northwest, but the District Supreme Court set aside the sale said ordered them.
The appellants in the other case purchased the land, but the District Supreme Court declared the sale null and void and ordered them to vacate the land.
Ghetto System
Mr. Marshall pointed out that if courts of equity will enforce agreements of this kind, accomplishing an object which is legal, it can it will result in the setting up of a ghetto system and it will be only a matter of time before Jews and Catholics will be proscribed against on account of their race and religion.

WASHINGTON, D. C.—Representative Ulysses D. Guyer, Republican, of Victory Highway, Kansas City, Kansas, has introduced a bill to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the 200th anniversary of the birth of George Washington. The bill provides that the memorial shall be a post-graduate institution; shall confer no degrees, but may issue certificates of attendance; and shall be wholly non-political and non-sectarian. It further provides that the Senate shall be instituted and governed by a board of recesses, consisting of the Chief Justice of the United States; the Commissioner of Education; the chairman of the Senate and House Committees on Education; and twelve other members to be appointed by the President.
To them is given the full power to determine policies and to make and enforce all necessary statutes and for the conduct of the University.
Colored Students
Cobble Students
Realize that which might accrue to members of the race seeking admission from the concentration of so much authority in such a group a reporter besought the author to report on the corporation in the bill some guarantee that the rights of the colored citizens of America might not be abridged.
It was learned "authoritatively that a make definite provision for the admission of all races.
No Rival
Its author among other things would be distinctly unlike existing universities, but it would always be their best friend and never a rival. It would be an association of great scholars and earnest students with all the rights of all possible truth and the eradication of error. No one can foretell just what form it would take for it would grow under the load that was put upon it. It would be best adapted to its purposes. Freedom to expand as conditions required should be guaranteed from the first. It should not be burdened by any academic superfluities, important as these may now appear.
No Exams
"It should, hold no examinations and confer no degrees. Those of its students who had need of these would have no difficulty in having the degree conferred credited by degree-conferring institutions. It should waste no time on parades, convocations and commencement exercises. Its members should be protected from the false allurements of the tinsel show now unknown in the academies." It "would concern itself only with the intellectual life of its students and would have no interest in their private affairs. It would brook no interference with the recommended and teachings. Its learning would be the highest in the land so that no one could have authority to pass judgment upon it. Its mission would be too sacred for all these things.
Open To All Races
"It would, of course, accord all its facilities alike to both sexes, to all races, and to every nationality."

S. American Paper Comments Upon Pres.-Elect's Trip To Buenos Aires
ARGENTINE TOOK EVEN VALET'S AUTOGRAPH
vice Men As Peevish
(Translation of "El Hombre de Conianza de Mr. Hoover," from La Critica, newspaper of Buenos Aires, Argentina, Sept. 5, America dated December 11, 1925. Made specially for the AFO by Vasil Maxell. Accompanying this article was printed a photo of Mr. Hoover, a young edward American white who is a Marylander, and a white service man.)
When our special messengers got on the train in which Mr. Hoover was travelling, the first thing on the president's special car that attracted their attention was the presence of a young sailor, who showing his white teeth was singing on the platform a tune from his own country, and dancing the Charleston.
The small brown man with little moustaches and his rugged gestures musicians and of Cairo musicians who amuse us on the improvised program of some central cafe.
We got on board and verified with what that thought does not master Spanish, he does know enough to understand and $\textcircled{1}$ make himself understood.
He tells us, "In Cuba I learned a little Spanish."
**Hower's Habits**
We then asked the congenial little sailor about Mr. Hoover's habits, and he asked him, "What did he and his wife also treat him kindly, "On the trip," he says, "many times the president amused himself playing with me, and he pleased him to him, me sing and dance Spanish lines."
Un at Six
We know, through Mr. Hoover's steward, that he is a methodical man. He gets up at 6 o'clock the morning does a little exercising and then breakfasts on fresh fruits. He eats a salad for lunch he prefers green vegetables and foods without sauces (or condiments).
Oltom Glm
In regard to drinking, confidentially, the little fellow tells us that from time to time, Mr. Hoover does not turn from the table and a translation for this. It may be Old Time Gin); and that at the table when there are guests he takes a little good wine.
Hoover Junior
But if Mr. Hoover really calls "dry," the same does not go for his son (this one). According to the sailor and according to data gathered later by our special representatives, (the young man), is very devoid of life and is as high life) as his parties are termed.
"What do you intend to do during your stay here in Buenos Aires?" we asked him. — "If they let me stroll, through orifice, and dance like I do dance a great deal, and they tell me that there are beautiful girls here who dance well. When I have a few free hours, I shall go to a cabaret in one of the tangoos.
Autographs Too
Once, the little brown fellow makes us see his white teeth in a frank smile; poses for our photographers; signs an autograph and the value of the illustrus traveler.
At his side, one of those peevish North American detectives poses also for the "Critic" photographer. For the first time, we see one of these fellows in a angry with all newspaper men and photographers, laugh.

Win From West Virginia Tossers, 56-25 In Slow Court Exhibition
RESERVES PLAY WELL
"Lanky" And "Babe" Jones Have Good Night
Morgan College defeated the West Virginia, Collegiate Institute basketball team by a 56 to 25 score in a slow court game, punctated by only an occasional flash of brilliance, at the new Albert Anderson, Friday night.
The Bears were at no time in danger, the Yellowjackets, from all indications having when they held the sting possessed when they held the kills to a closer limit in the West Side. Coach Taylor gave every member of the squad an opportunity to perform, every man except Bluford scoring at least once from the floor. "Grr:dopp" Garretten, whose participation in games been at a minimum ten late, late, out at a deuce spot and the event valid.
Morgan started off with her usual rush, and immediately from the tapoff Jack. Speakman's first basket, before you could say "Jack Robinson." But that was only a flash in the pan; he was several minutes later that "Scottie" rath-of the visitors, gave them their first score. On a goal by Shannon, the Yellowjackets were out in time that he was in the lead.
Bears Take Lead For Keeps
"Pinky" Clarke cut this short, however, when he sent the sphere sactioning through the hoop twice in succession. Jack Spencer came through with a double decker wheel and Wade at center, and clipped a shot through for the mountaineers. "Larky" Jones shot a pair of fancy birdies and following Whittled's basket lassoed two-pooped found the lead by loading a 25 to 12 margin. The second half found Morean extending its lead by 31 points while the visitors were scrambling to measure in this half, scoring with as much case as the regulars. "Babe" Jones and "Dynamite" Tucker, leading in the basket, scored in University basketer, to impart a touch of color into "be rather drab contest by cacing the basket from long range on three occasions for University's aim was little of a mystery."
"Lanky" High Man
In four shooting the Yellowjackets had but in field goals they the locals but in field goals they the Bear missed a large number of set-ups. "Lanky" jones, the only man to play through the entire game, led in the scoring with 17 points. The Bear tied for second homes with 9 point's each. The guarding of Giles for West Virginia was good, while the shooting of Babe Jones. Babe and the Bear could join the best the Bear could join.

Say Brown's Five Second K. O. Fastest Abroad
PARIS—Controversy has arisen here as to the shortest knockout on record following Al Brown's kybernetics. Al Brown's kybernetics gave weight five seconds after the bell rang in their bout here last week. While the knockout will probably go down in history as the fastest on record from the United States that years ago Battling Nelson knocked out William Rossler in two seconds. Brown, instead of the usual formality of shaking hands when the fight is over, instead handed his right on the Frenchman's law, and it was cil over.

ACH ARACH
LUNDY
Richard, the Lundy, but more familiarly known as "Dick" Lundy, former manager and shortstop of Bacharach Giants, and the Baltimore Black Sox, as a part of the swap that sends Ben Taylor to the Bees as manager. Lundy should make a valuable addition to the local family of baseball players, who started his pro baseball career with the original Bacharach Giants in 1916 under the wing of Tom Jackson and Henry Tucker, born in Jacksonville in Florida, who want to Hildale and stayed until 1920. When Connors put the Bacharach Giants into New York, Lundy was a member of the first team of his first endeavor in 1922, and has remained since.
From 1923 to 1925 he captained the team and in 1926 clumped into the managerial post vacated by John Henry Lloyd. In this season Lloyd sent the Bees to join the League. He was the World's Series to the American Giants of Chicago. Lloyd won the Eastern League flag again in 1927.
Hawaiian Girl In Swim Exhibition
WASHINGTON — Fellowers of aquatic sports came out on enmass at the invitation of Coach Clarence Pendleton to witness the exhibition given by Miss Harriet K. Purdy, Hawaiian mermaid, who with Henry L. Walker, billed as stunt diver and instructor at the 12th Street Y.M.C.A., thrilled the crowd with aquatic stunts at the Howard natatorium, here Thursday.
Miss Purdy did some difficult dives and demonstrated strokes which seemed incredible and swam a 220-foot stretch of water in Brown, John Harris, Ben, Azikiwe and Getell of the "Y."
Walker did strut his stuff when he kept his numerous admirers in suspense as he performed the stunts at the Coach Pendleton, Azikiwe, the coach African man, who was introduced as handily winning the backstroke event at the recent, Nike-Howard Swimming Institute, which warms to the great ovation of the crowd.
The last event was a special exhibition, 40-yard race, between Gettell, Azkwipe, Harris and Brown. The four mermen finished the two lap races so closely that the judge ordered to them a dead heat for the first place.
THE PASSING REVIEW
By BILL GIBSON
WHAT HAS HAPPENED to the Eastern Basketball League? we ask, and come to think of it we have had nary a line on the doings of that body in many weeks.
Our own answer to the query is that it has gone the way of many of its predecessors in basketball and other sports as well. The death knell of many of these organizations is sounded ere the fants. Whatever troubles may develop that eventually lead to the demise of these bodies may be traced to the fundamental matter of
With all respect to the organizers of race athletic bodies (and their problems are many) it must be admitted that practically every the organizations formed starts off with not enforcing the SIGHT. When an organization has placed an existential sum as a guarantee of it, the rules and regulations of the group of which it is a part, is not likely to indulge in those practices that will cause it to forfeit what dough it has deposited in good faith. This, our organizations have not done, has been no effective way of discipline could be enforced on the organization itself, as its own units within our organizations.
remarkably different approach. Of course we started out to talk about the Eastern Basketball League and to it we return to say that if the reasons leading to its kicking the bucket are not in any way linked to a financial crisis, like to know. Last year we talked about the unfair ruling, the Washington quit the league flat. The capital boys sought the independent pastures and seemingly are thriving. The Baltimore Athensians refused to join the organization when they found that more time was being spent in determining how much salary officers should receive, than in seeing how efficiently these officers should work.
the "organizing" bug seems to have bitten quite a few of the group and here, there and everywhere we see one flourish for a brief period and then drop from the horizon. There should be at least one league of basketball teams in the East and West. There are probably more basketball teams today than there are teams in any other sport, and the game is pretty well supported by the fans, we
All down the coast we have teams claiming this and that championship or boasting of such and such a record when all of this gush could be settled once and for all by the meeting of these teams in regularly scheduled and supervised games. And by the latter we mean games handled by COMPETENT officials. Far less slant on this matter, but we are much more comfortable to see that not only in the matter of such little things as these disputes might, but it is effective, but it would do much to solve the booking and guarantee, worries that, but it would a number of these teams today.
We have before us a letter, received quite some time ago from the manager of a popular New York quint, in which he hemons the fact that it is so hard for him to book games for this team on a trip hard, he walls, he waits, he waits, and then he meets with the sentence, "All we ask of them is money for 10 men." And the latter, in these days of dollar scrambling, is going to be objected to by most teams who receive letters from this particular unit. Expenses for seven men, yes—but for ten men more. And you can see that, for most teams, we forego weaving as independents might be practically abolished with the entrance of these teams into organized bodies. As members of leagues they would still have, of course, the privilege of scheduling games when teams and teams are not able to play out with the league teams. The matter of basketball tournament, staged by a number of our schools is doing much in the matter of DECIDING titles, but in basketball that is without subsidy or other support it is necessary that a few showcased games be made up with believe that there were extra teams that are not primarily in the matter of paying themselves off all expenses have been met. For teams of this type we see no other way out except an organization. We realize that in matters of group athletics or other penses we believe that there were not particularly baseball, it is money that we have lacked from the start. Is it any wonder that in the end we also find ourselves lacking? Of course for this year it is entirely too late to have a league but it is not too late more either to begin talking about a team for more than a year when we mean one that implies more than a fancy name on expensive stationery.
WE LEET THE CAT OUT too soon, one of my contemporaries remarks when he refers to this pillar's publication, A WEEK IN ADVANCE of any other newspaper in the country, the news of the trades negotiated and mentioned in Eastern baseball circles.
But that is just the sort of thing on which we hang what little sports garb that we wear. Getting the news first and printing it is our aim and when we fail to do that there may be cases in which better judgment prevails and makes wise the delay in publication of certain types of news. In this case we felt that the public should know the dope, right away, and we consequently gave it our first. In other instances, many of them, perhaps, it is better to give the public the Enterprise demands, however, that news be fresh and hot. We therefore take some little pride in our PREMA-TURE story and trust we can do it again.
Strange as it may seem we received a letter from Gumberland Poasy left by a friend, perhaps, in a denied that the trade of Beckwith and Dhigo for "Babe Ruth" Wilson was ever mentioned. Yet in another publication the honorable Pittsburgh admits that we were on the right track for he says: "This article was printed in the Afro-American but was authentic. Trades were mentioned and Beckwith Dhigo and Wilson were brought up as individuals, not as combination. So you see that had we not published the fact that the names of these three players were mentioned at the league confab the public would no doubt be surprised. A person involved had been contemplated. If it is true, then, that a trade was mentioned in which these men figured individually, it is pretty evident that the management of the Homestead Grays feels that the Baltimore "Babe" is a more valuable man than either Beckwith Dhigo, Individual, that is saying something when our team admits it.
And of course here enters a debate in which we well take no part. But we will venture to say, if we not too "premature", that there are some other trades and an abundance of new faces yet to be seen in the range of the boxing world. But we are most concerned with the proposition of league guarantees which, it is said, are likely to form the greatest stumbling block in the way of perfecting the "name" of the American League into a real functioning organization. We would be with our baseball men lay down the dough and in the term of the street, "get from around", for we've always taught that this sort of thing keeps squabbling down. And we hope were not too previous when we say that most all of the moguls already know this better than this double col. will ever know or experience, but for some reason or other seek to evade the real issue.
A NEW POWER in purlastic circles appeared on the local horizon last Tuesday night when the newly formed Melrose Club made its bow to the public with a boxing card. Despite the reduced price of admission and the added feature that gentlemen holding ringsees could bring a late friend free, the boxing world is still a bit of a newbie at the New Albert auditorium. This is probably due to the fact that in no instance was any new blood introduced into the squared circle. It seems that the promoters of boxing in Baltimore still fail to realize that some talent from outside of the city must be introduced if fans are to be allowed to watch the boxing world. We believe that Baltimoreans will support boxing and pay for the privilege if the boxing cards offered are attractive enough, and by attractive we don't mean that a Dempsey must be offered for four bats. We therefore drop this suggestion to matchmaker "Shorty" Sedgewick as assistant. Bring the boys something worth while, something new and you'll have to get another man to help you count the money--maybe.
AND WHILE ON THE MATTER of pugilism there comes to mind Hype Igoe's spiel about the timing of the blows that Jack Johnson, when he they-day, possessed. Igoe says.
"Timing was the secret of Jack Johnson's right-hand uppercut. Johnson wasn't a hard hitter. It wasn't until he had passed the peak of his career that he took the uppercut. Then, with all his knowledge of timing, feinting, pace and patience, he knew how to make the other fellow come to him at just the right moment of contact. It was the other fellows coming that connected. He was the quickest of them." The faster and more determined he came, the harder he was hit. He, not Johnson, but the poundage behind the punch. Yet they called Johnson a great uppercut puncher. He, not Johnson, without knowing what it was, will probably say it was a genius.
"Johnson got up to illustrate the action, the complete working plan of his right hand upper cupboard the other day and as he advanced on me he invited me to lead my left at him. I did. And then, as the slow motion of the cupboard came to a stop, I was able to way land a right-hand cupboard. I learned something. Dempsey, Delaney, Schmeling and surely Jack Sharkey could have learned something also. Main point was this. To get force back of the blow it must be delivered with right fist going straight up on a line in front of the body, the elbow grazing the hitter's hip just before the upward power is applied. Johnson insisted that the blow landed in any other fashion. And judging from his prowess with the punch, Johnson must be correct."

Cartwright went down for the fatal count after a series of blows to the chin. Efforts to revive him in the ring failed and the use of a pulmotor by physicians and firemen in his dressing room later proved fruitless.

Pennsylvanian Clan, Slow In Starting, Takes Contest, 28 To 15
LINCOLN, Pa. — The Lincoln Cagars took another C. I. A. A. cage fracas when they trounced the Union Cagars by the score of 20-17. The Union aggregation started the game with fast and furious passing and it looked as though they attack enabled them to make seven points before the Lions were able to make their first. In the last few minutes of the first half the Lions scored eight and the Lions won. This first half Lincoln was leading by the score of 16-9.
Second Half
Avery was the point man of the game for he alone scored eight of the Lions' 23 points, while his running mate, Decosta, made seven.
Game Is Rough
H. Willingham tallies for the Union cagars but they were foul tones. Ellis of Union played a fine floor game but he did not have a running mate to help him out. The rough and the referee was continually warning the members of both teams.
The Lions this week start on their Southern trip on which they are meeting A. and T., Union, St. Louis, wishing to meet the Lions close their trip with Hampton on February 9. The Lions meet Howard on Lincoln's birthday, in New York, for the first of their series of games played against the Bison aggregation.

In fact, every member of the home team garnered at least two field goals in this half. Jerserves had a machine proved too much for the Capital Club passers and they could not find themselves.

NEW YORK.—Frederick Douglass High School athletics for the past two years holders of the junior high school indoor championship of the P. S. A. L. lost by four points to the Elijah D. Clark High School and the Douglass record but not until they had smashed to smithereens one old record.
The Douglass High School warriors annexed 25 points while their Bronx rivals were garnering a total of 20. Nineteen schools were represented in the Bronx, but the Douglass record was made when the quartet of 120-lb runners in the quarter mile were clocked in the time of 50 1-5 seconds, clipping one and four-fifth seconds from the old record made

Clark with Stein, Zahn, Lishman and Hecht as its quartet, place runner up, Cooper Junior Hi taking third and Alexander Hamilton capturing fourth.
Fred Douglass Junior Hi captured three first places, but the winning blow was scored by Clark in the final.

Douglass failed to place in the event.

Most of the talent from Douglass was concentrated in the track prowess of Alex Davis, who excelled in the field events in which Clark appeared to excel.

The New Yorkers stopped off in Chicago after having dropped a brace of games to Fort Wayne of the American League on Monday and Tuesday night, on Tuesday night when the Renaissance towers were sent to the league-leading Hoosiers 34 to 30, the Savoy, the Fresno which had conquered the fourth-place Giants, Bruins, 29-21 earlier in season, dropped a hot one to the Bruins, 32-28, the Bruin margin of victory being accomplished thru their greater success at the free throw line.
Wednesday night the Bruins and the Renaissance met and hundreds of race fans mixed with the thousands and who turned out to see the champions in the effort to compare their ability with the Savoys. After startling off a like whirlwind, the champions seemed to fold up and the Bruins took them in camp. 42-28 two team points more than they were able to beat the Savoys. Owing to a flood of betting money which Bruin backers are said to have sent out between halves when they sense the mums leading, the charge boys had sold out and their defeat left a bad taste in the mouths of the fans who were jim-crowed in the pavilion of George Halas, the Bruin boss.

PHILADELPHIA. — Echoes of the proposed Dempsey-Godfrey fight, which had their origin here, were again heard this week, when it became known that Herman Taylor and his partner Bobby Goulden were murdered to match the pair in the Municipal Stadium.
Of the matter the Philadelphia "Record" says: "Humbert Fugazy first sought the bout," said Baron Dougherty. "He told me he had $500,000 to offer Dempsey for a bout when he was considered murder while I was considering it Herman Taylor got in touch with me and talked turkey.
"I postponed my departure until Saturday to talk with Herman, who has assured me that I will be able to attend Fugazy for a bout between Dempsey and Godfrey.
"I am going to Miami to see Jack in the meantime the bout must just as it was, only a tentative one, but I am sure it sure be made eventually. Taylor in the meantime has consulted his partner, city officials and the match can be arranged for a bout. The Souci-centennial was held, providing an agreement can be reached between the fighters.
"I am ready to put the bout on," said Taylor. "I am not going to miss pell-mell South until things take more definite shape. I expect to hear from Dougherty and if he gives me the word I'll board a rafter for the bout, I am sure to a contract calling for a battle — a 10-rounder, to be waged in this city."
Carolina H. S. Coach Trained Girls And Made Uniforms Too
BY FAITH WOODSON
WARSAW, N. C. — "Sure, my girl's team looks hot grinning, my coach," he said of the high School, as one of his betrunked players tripped across the floor. "Didn't I make those suits myself the night before our former game?" And being a woman and having my doubts doing much with needle, I marveled. The suits in question were dark red, trimmed with white, and having a large white W. H. on the front. Further questions revealed that each suit was made a cost of about $100, and thread been counted in, with the material.
The coach, who is a product of Union University, took up a course of tailoring with his prep work, which rendered him able to turn out such a product.
"If it hadn't been for my former training my girls would still be playing in the detestable bloomers," said Drawhorne. But girls would be Drawhorne. But girls they know they look good, so I just dressed them up. Look 'em over when they begin to play.
And they did well — 'an how!
HAMPTON TRIUMPHS OVER A. & T., 18-13
GREENBORO, N. C. — The A. and T. quintet in a flasy and spectacular game here Thursday night bowed in defeat to the Seasiders from Hampton. Williams started his second team, but was forced to replace them with his strong artillery. In the Hampton aggregation, there were no outstanding stars. The organization from Hampton was a smooth aggregation. Coach Byarm's boys displayed excellent floor work and were good in their defensive work. The Aggres repeatedly broke through the defense of the basket and the basket was the cause of their down fall.
DeBerry and Howard tied in scoring for the losers, each scoring four points. DeBerry scored four points to feet when he picked one in the basket from the middle of the court. Cotton was the leading scorer of the evening, tallying five points. Again, and Tucker were g' at guard posi-

MILDRED
DE HOFF
Maryland Girl in Health Test
Millions of boys and girls all over the world, thousand of them right here in Maryland, are being restored to health and strength by the purely vegetable tonic and laxative known as California Fig Syrup and endorsed by physicians for over 50 years. Children need no urging to take it. They love its rich, fruity flavor. Nothing can compete. Nothing can certainly laxative, and it further than this. It gives tone and strength to the stomach and bowels so these organs continue to act normally of their own accord. It stimulates the appetite, helps digestion. A Maryland mother, Mrs. S. H. DeHoff, Jr. Corr. Putty and Wilson Avenues, Baltimore, says: "Mildred is absolutely the picture of health, now with her ruddy eyes, bright eyes and plump cheeks, full of joy and she was a 100 per responds to its gentle urging and is Baby Clinic."
"Much of the credit for her perfect condition is due to California Fig Syrup. We have used it since babyhood to keep her bowels active during colds or any children's ailments and she has always had an easy time with them. She always gets the gentle and is quick back to normal."
Ask your drugstreet for California Fig Syrup and look for the word "California" on the carton so you'll always get the genuine.

Of course, they had to be on the Wednesday night and asked Audrey Berry, Ethel Waters and Frances Lomax to join them for the evening. The Waters scored for the club prize and Audrey for the guide award. The president, Sunday Night Supper Club.
Ruth and Charlie Shipley have started something new and novel, as usually is. This time it is a Sunday Night Supper Club.

New Negro Willing To Teach Art Of Headwaiting
Cleveland Headwaiter Realizes Men Must Study To Keep Up With Times And Hold Hotel Posts
By P. D. UCKEN
(Assist. Headmaster, Union Club. 2183
E. 482rd Street, Cleveland-A million
club with the best service in the U. S.
A.)
CLEVELAND, O.-I read in the
AFRO Chef Steward Henderson's
article in which he urged hotel
workers to secure proper training in
order to keep up with the dimes and
money.
I wrote to him congratulating him
his stand
on this. I am a headwaiter. We had our last convention here in Cleveland, Ohio. Our next one will be in St. Louis August 15, 1929. I have a job of experience in catering business and when I say business I mean it is a business. I was headwaiter at Edgewater Beach Hotel, Chicago House, Louisville, and on tours by R. R. for the famous Fred Harvey Ding Car department.
I am also the first and only Negro that ever held the title of Maitre D'Hotel at the Morton Hotel, Grand Rapids, Mich. At this p ce i I had charge of two banques and private dining rooms, a main dining room and a grill room, all rooms running, filled to their seating ca-
I had a private office in the hotel adjoining the managers' desk in the dining room. I have worked in some of the largest and finest hotels in this country-New York, Florida and throughout the United States. I will help open a course in catering in one of our colleges as soon as it can be arranged.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1929
The week, February 10th to 16th has been designated by the Optometrists of the United States and Canada as SAVE YOUR VISION WEEK. In this rapid age in which we live and work our eyes play an important part and unfortunately many of of us fail to give the care to this important organ that it requires. It is a well known fact that the visual sense is the most important of all our five senses, and that seventy-five per cent of our knowledge is gained through our eyes. While there is no such thing as the perfect vision, the expect and strive to obtain normal vision, and that with comfort. With the great majority of people their eyes have not yet become adapted to the strenuous demands made by the severely sudden development of civilization.
Those eyes which are physically defective, that is, out of focus because they are too long, or too short, or warped, which puts the optical system of the eyes out of focus, causing blurred vision. On the retina unless unusual effort is made, are squandering energy. So clear vision is in no manner positive proof of normal eyes. There are however, almost an unlimited list of symptoms which would indicate defective. One of the first symptoms of eye-strain is, twitching of the eye lids.
This twitch is usually followed and accompanied with many other symptoms growing more severe as long as sleepy eyes, tired eyes, jumpy eyes, eyes that dread light, headache, dizziness, nausea, insomnia, constant tired feeling, nervous irritability, inability of mental concentration, epilepsy, and/or a whole nervous and muscular system, and in some cases bringing about serious and fatal organic diseases.
Startling and gratifying results have been obtained in this trist has corrected the defective eyes. The improvement in general health is just as gratifying as the improved mentality.
The time is fast approaching when even the worst of old eyes will be passed through optometric examination and defects corrected.
Save the eyes and you often save a life from discomfort and unhappy eyes. Have your eyes examined periodically and that are functioning normally and that your vision is not defective.

large: communities. The colored population of this city is only between 1500 and 2,000, but Mrs. Page sold Walker goods not only to the colored and white people of theford and ford communities of both races in nearby towns. The winning of the automobile is indicative of the success she has had in business. She began three years ago as an agent of the Walker Company with very poor equipment and success. Now she has an up-to-date beauty parlor with fixtures valued at more than $1,000, a large regular calling list of well-paying patrons.
Another feature of this program was the graduation in the Walker Course and award of diplomas to the following: P. Walker, Greenwich, Comm. Mrs. Veronica Quander, Greenwich, Comm. Mrs. Jessie V. Bottoms, Stamford, Comm. Mrs. Dora J. Johnson, Stamford, Comm. Mrs. Masalyev Famble, Greenwich, Comm.

Around About Baltimore
Bv PROFESSOR FUDGE
Briefly Speaking
It took the World War to convince a lot of washerwomen that a brief case was a good thing to carry laundry in. Up until tat time a brief cases was an article that members of the profession and is much known of by everyday folks as Einstein's theory of relativity is known by stickmen in craphouses.
Starting out with washerwomen as a helper for clean and soiled linen, the brief case made a wide acquaintance and numbered among its "despoilers, plumbers, cooks, shorementers,焊工, wrighters, bootjegers and whatnot in the hands of a worker it seemed to inspire him with a feeling of importance and exclusiveness and added to his ability to what women as "sk."
It is surprising how much lunch and tools a brief case will hold, as a matter of fact, the only equipment of our erstwhile football stars, who in 1920 was a stock salesman for the now defunct Brown and Stevens' Banking House in Philadelphia, who had been a key point on his visit, to Baltimore. In spite of the many advantages offered by the case, the imprecusity and the lack of stature of limitations on its use by toilers. Today, in 1829, the brief case, along with the silk shirt, is still the most valuable planted by the Boston hag and the rolled up newspaper.
Meet Mabel Whitman
To an audience in a theatre the unexpected is most always amusing. Managers in Sisters on Sunday, Mabel Whitman literally held up her own show for fifteen minutes when she made an oration the subject of which was, all the colored theatre in general. Mabel diagnosed the situation for the audience's benefit and offered advice. The words were used as larceny, hog, no principle, greedy, take advantage, poor, little, colored actors, starting iron never again, watch and forlorn. I gathered from the speech that managers and owners have been "taking the Jew" on colored actors and not the Jew, and last Sunday night they will not take any more on the Whitman Sisters.
Never No Two
The night of the conflict between the basketball teams of Morgan College and the Renaissance Club, the two teams were in a suction, in spite of the fact that it was staged on a Tuesday night. On the next Friday night, the night when Baltimoreans can stay up until 4 o'clock, they can select a clock, for some reason or other there was only a corporal guard out to the game played by the Athenians and the Spruce. Speculation has been rife as to just what was the cause of the fall down on the "surething." Two opinions have been advanced, the first is that the game was played on ten thousand people can't stand two basketball games a week; the second opinion is, in charging 75 cents admission for the Morgan College, that the Morgan people cut in on the public's Friday night money.
A Small Timer
A year or so ago there was considerable argument as to whether the African Negro Anthem should be adopted by the race as its national hymn. Some said we are Americans (which some say are not) and additionally anthemized. Others said it was absolutely essential if we were to hold together our racial traditions, to sing this anthem and revere it as the national anthemic song of the American Ne .so.
As I see it, racial traditions are so indelibly stamped upon our faces, our footsteps and our movement, we could be unable if we remove those traditions. The anthem, however, is a beautiful piece, and it is a powerful song as the music I would suggest that it be turned over to Haiti, Liberia or Mound Bayon, in order that it may not lose its fragrance on the desert air. However, as the case may be, it must be admitted that the Negro National Anthem has been well seen and understood in length and breadth of the United States. Imagine my surprise then, when looking over a paper which purportedly was published in Baltimore, I discover

Baltimoreans Call Business Exhibit Renaissance
Business Men's Exhibit Here Meets City Wide Approval
Over Coming Week's Show.
With a program being completed comprising addresses by city officials, representatives of the schools, churches, civic and fraternal organizations, for the forthcoming Business Men's Exhibit, Baltimoreans are waking up to the fact that something is taking place in the business and industrial life of the group here. The exhibit will be held at Trinity A. M. E. Church during the week of February 18 and the leading business establishments have already made reservations for booths.
Some of the Baltimoreans commenting on the advanced step to promote the business of the group pre as follows:
Thomas Nelson, 1806 N. Mount street: "The business men's exhibit is one of the best things to stimulate development among colored business men of Baltimore." Marse Callaway, 1305 Pennsylvania avenue: "The business men's exhibit will help to promote Negro business in Baltimore." N. A. Buchanan, teacher, Douglass High School: "The present conditions in Baltimore demand the "Negro" in business. As the object of the Negro Business Exhibition to educate the masses with what the Negro business men have to offer, thereby stimulating interest in business. I think it is a splendid project." Deaver Smith, Smith's Tea Store: "Business among our people will be a truly source for our future. Therefore such an exhibit is very much in order."
Dr. O. D. Jones, 1405 Druid Hill avenue: "I think that a business exhibit of Negro business which will educate the masses with what Negro business men have to offer and stimulate greater race patronage, is a worthy undertaking." E. C. Weaver, History Life Insurance Co.: "I think the efforts of the exhibition in staging a business exhibit to show the public what the colored business men are product: is worthy indeed." Etta R. Burrell, teacher, Douglass High School: "Negroes need to acquaint the world with what colored business men have to offer. This seems to be a special opportunity." The Negro Business League needs to be encouraged in their project: the business men's exhibit. It will be a means of showing the public what the colored business doing and creates a large patronage among the group. It is before a worthy project."
Beulah T. Johnson, chief clerk,
Douglass High School: "The effort
being put forth by Dr. Charles Stewart,
and his staff, to promote
interests and opportunities of the
business form of our group, is a very
very one."
"Every man and woman should avail himself of the opportunity to help make this exhibit one of the successes Baltimore has ever done."
Allen Collick, teach, Douglass High School:
For many years our emph ass in education has been placed mainly upon the professions. The phenomenal growth of some of our business enterprises has made the tendency to discriminate has made it almost imperative that the colored business man shall take an important place. We must become producers.
"Added to these is the overcrowding of certain professions which will drive many into commercial pursuits. will do a great service to the community by educating it as to the splendid possibilities in this field." J. Howard Payne, 220 St. Paul place:
"Many such exhibits should be held for the purpose of acquiring the knowledge with his real economic condition."
"If educational meetings are held from time to time, in the churches and the schools, for the purpose of acquainting the masses with the great progress made by outstanding Negro business men, great good will be Carrington L. Davis, 1821 McCullob street;

tive work in holding an exhibit. To give to the public the opportunity to see what the colored people of this city are doing in a business way; to disclose the opportunities that are now open to young men and women to enter upon the youth who are being trained to day possible future openings; to reveal to all the great importance of preparing today for the opportunities of tomorrow in the industrial, commercial, and financial activities of this community, is an objective well worth while in itself.
"The Colored Business Men's Exchange is to be highly commended." Bernard N. Christmas, D.D.S., 1236 Pennsylvania avenue.
"Exhibit Colored Business Men's Exhibition is a very wonderful step forward. It presents a great opportunity to bring before the masses just what we are doing in a constructive way along business endeavor. There are lots of outstanding achievements among our group of young men on our minority. The thing we want is publicity that will educate the majority."
Dr. W. H. Beaman, 1236 Pennsylvania avenue: "The business men's exhibit is one of the best efforts our men could
