(This appears to be Rev. Mr. Baker's own address.) The next day the Baker undersed the check and it was refreshed the first of the month, officials became suspicious. Upon learning that police were to be told to arrest the Agent, he requested the Bishop to take the first of the money which the insurance company had contributed. When the Bishop refused he went to Church, Walton, who also refused to accept the money.
Arrested
Rev. Mr. Baker was arrested at his home by two detectives, early Saturday morning, and taken to Dept. of Justice to confronted by officials of the insurance company. Bishop Gaines was summoned. Bishop Gaines stated that Rev. Mr. Baker had no authority, and that he had failed to turn the money over to proper authorities. Baker was released in the custody of the police as possible. The insurance officials refused to prosecute.

ANNAPOLIS, (Special)
A bill to equalize the pay of white and colored county teachers was introduced in the House this week by Delegate George C. Peverley, Democrat, of St. Marys County.
Under the bill which is sponsored by the Colored State Teachers' Association, the equalization would take effect over a time of six years beginning 1931.
State superintendent, Albert S. Cook estimates that individual counties not sharing in the state equalization fund would have to increase their country budgets by $44,284 in 1931, by an additional $44,284 in 1933, and by an additional $59,044 in 1935, making a total bi-ennial additional cost to these counties $147,612 after 1935.
Enactment of this bill, he says would require the following increases in the state public school budget for the equalization fund: $79,984 in 1931; an additional $79,944 in 1933; and an additional $105,112 in 1935; make additional cost thereafter $265,100. Hearing On Three Bills

Despite the fact that the will had been destroyed, relatives succeeded in gaining possession of the $60,000 estate again last week. In addition, had disposed of the will, had shown it to several persons beforehand who were able to reconstruct it, so the court accepted it. The court in asking and answerd itself, that the reason why the brother did not bring someone to have the will, established said.
"The impression left on my mind from the evidence is that John Seabrook is ignorant and asking in executive ability.
"He believed that his brother had left a will under which he might ultimately benefit—and his widow was too influential and important in her set for him—a non-resident, to get the truth of the case.
"Most of the witnesses in this case were intimate personal or business friends of the widow and if they should tell John Seabrook what they knew about the facts, during the lifetime of Nena, they would criminally involve their friend and church member. Not until the death of Nena, therefore, were they at liberty to speak."

Coughs from colds may lead to serious trouble. You can stop them now with Creomulsion, an emulsified creosote that is pleasant to take. Creomulsion is a medical discovery with two-fold 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. Creomulsion contains, in addition to creosote, other healing CREOMI FOR THE COUGH FROM

"Gulley: two to ten years in the penitentiary," was the sentence imposed upon City Councilman Thomas Fleming for accepting a $200 bribe from a policeman to get him a pension. Instantly his smile faded. Counsel, Selmo Glenn, right, noted an appeal. The Cleveland press declares Fleming got justice and in his conviction the political house of Maurice Maschke, white boss, totters.
Interested in furthering Negro education in the State, a bill will be introduced in the General Assembly fixing the same minimum salaries for Negro teachers as for whites.
"The passage of this bill would be no more than an act of simple justice, equal pay for equal work is a sound principle and the State of Maryland cannot ignore the precedent. The fact that there is now a discrepancy between the minimum salaries paid whites and blacks speaks none too well for the public's sense of fairness.

"When the minimum salary for Negro teachers is made to equal that of white teachers it will be none too high. The lowest salary for the white teacher in the elementary schools of the State is fixed by law at $600 a year. The minimum for Negro teachers is $320. How human beings on such a scale can provide the necessities of life, say nothing of the purchase of books and the paying of tuition for special courses required of them in their profession, is inconceivable. In all probability the answer is: It can't be done.
"But be that as it may, discrimination is the more glaring injustice at the moment and the bill to be offered in the Legislature deserves the prompt and favorable consideration of the public's representatives. Maryland should acquit itself of that species of injustice."

Recalls Getting Federick Douglas
Ander Tells Of His Love Of and Nature
Douglass told of the intimate family side of the life in which he grew up and proved that Mr. Douglass was a great man because he was as attentive to the sentimental and smaller sides of life, as to the political and national problems. "Even the animals at Gedarah Hill responded to the great love which Mr. Douglass held for nature as well as man," said
Miss Anna Plummer, a retired teacher of Washington schools, told Mr. Sprague, a former citizen of living in the home of his son-in-law, how she knew Mr. Douglas through Keyland, and how he had loaned her $1,000 to make the payment upon her property. She offset the claim that Mr. Douglas was without religion, and told how affected he was when he played "Jesus Is Calling To Me," on the violin, and how he took the entire hymn to heart as personal.

Act Plays

Play Of Southland Strongest
Vehicle Presented
WASHINGTON. — The Erigwa
Players' Guild presented three
one-act plays in the auditorium
of the Dunbar High School, Friday
"For Billy's Sake," by Carrie Williams Clifford, is the story of Jane Andrews, a young mother who has seemingly been deserted by her husband and because of her color, is unable to find employment which will insure an education for her child. She has always had some dramatic ability and is about to accept an offer to work as a teacher for the husband, who has in the meantime become a successful inventor, returns and makes her sacrifice unnecessary. Mrs. Andrews, the mother of the neglectful Tom, is played by Estelle Evans. Her interpretation was by far the finest in the play. Here are the stories of Jane Andrews. Other members of the cast were: Lowry Barnes, as George Andrews, the younger brother; Helen Seruby as Kilty Wright, engaged to George Andrews, and a sympathetic friend of Jane's; Percy Waddill as Andrews and the oldok, the Monsieur Tardieu, the theatrical producer.
"Compromise," the second play, was splendidly done. This play by Willis Richardson, is the story of Jane Lee and her children. After a worthless husband compromised with Ben Carter, their white neighbor, for one hundred dollars after Carter had handed him the dog, they struggled to keep things going. The younger son, Alec, has assumed the responsibility of the father who deserted with the compromise money when another tragedy comes to the family.
Annie, the elder daughter, is ruined by Jack Carter, Ben's only son. Alec in an attempt to kill the seducer, breaks Jack's arm. Ben Carter, who had at first agreed to compromise with the mother and educate the younger children, refuses to keep his pledge, and swears vengeance against Alec, who escapes while his mother defends then one from the sheriff.

Dr. Calvert, the girl father, is the only one to witness the earns of his daughter's love for the Negro chauffeur he is brokenhearted. This last play was by far the strongest of the three.

UNIVERSITY WINS CASE AGAINST N. C. MUTUAL
COLUMBIA. S. C. (ANP) — Allen University won a decision over the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company last week in Court when a decree was handed down that the school is not responsible for further payment on more than $30,000 worth of bonds held by the finance company against the institution. The university declares it paid funds to W. Gomez, of the Durham Commercial Security Company, to be used in Compensation held by the North Carolina Mutual.
Two years ago, Gonex disappeared and has not been heard of since. The North Carolina Mutual conceived that as it has never received money the bonds of the university still owns the money. Gonex was a trustee of Allen University as well as head of the security company.
It is expected that the insurance company will appeal.

"Time" Says President-Elect Lily-W
MIAMI, Fla.-At the close of the 1928 presidential campaign, says Time magazine, in the issue of February 18th, all but six of the 25 leading Negro newspapers were calling for Smith election.
"Puzzled and worried." Nominee Hoover summoned Millionaire R. R. Church of Memphis, Tenn., to Washington. He heard his grievances against the Hly-white, spoke a few
In the last week of the campaign, says Time, most of the rebellious journals, at Church's command, changed front and Hooverized voiceless "Brow-wringing in Florida. Herbert Hoover last week sought a realistic answer to the Republican party's most head-achy riddle: How GOP's gains in the South be consolidated and permanently retained?
In Florida
"To help Mr. Hoover, Col. Horace A. Mann, of Tennessee, chief undercover Hooverizer of the south during the recent canpain, was established in the Miami Beach hotel to greet southern politicians of all colors and colors to listen to their fears, and promise them nothing.
"Meanwhile, into the Hoover presence were ushered a few southern gentlemen, eager to impart advice, and to deplore the Negro's dominance." Infinitely patient, the President-elect listened and listened.
Lily-White
"Upon how the G.O.P. treats the Negro in the south depends to a large extent, the Negro vote in Illinois where it is often crucial. The white gentlemen, exponents of the 'new South,' urged Mr. Hoover to buttress and contend with Black Machines of the South, to cultivate the lily-white movement by which it is hoped to Republicanize permanently many a southern Democrat whose party was shaken by the Romanism.
"Offending the Negro politicians will never do, for their power at the nominating convention of 1932 may be as great as the power in sincerce, muffled, sympathy with southern white men. His instinct is to heed their wishes.

WASHINGTON, D. C. — W. Ernest Jarvis, successful undertaker here, is the son of the Rev. W. D. Jarvis, pastor of the New Bethel Baptist Church. W. Ernest Jarvis started his undertaking business eight years ago, using all the work himself.

He became the friend of the hospice worker who his. His reputation spread.

AUCTION HITS HOWARD
HAWKINS' PROPERTY
WASHINGTON, D. C. — Public auction sale was announced recently for the building at 1218 Pennsylvania avenue, owned jointly by Perry W. Howard, John R. Hawkins, banker, and C. A. Whittington, white, Mississippi postmaster. The property was owned two-thirds and Hawkins one-third of the property on the south side of Pennsylvania avenue near the post office building. In January of last year, Howard transferred to C. A. Whittington, one-sixth of an undivided two-thirds interest giving Whittington a one-third share. The property was encumbered with a first trust of $13,500 and a second trust undisclosed held by the Mount Vernon Savings Bank. The owners failed to pay the bank the second trust and the bank foreclosed. The building is only three stories but is valuable because the government announced many purchases of property in that section at an early date.
Janitor Shoots Sailor, Trying To Drive Off His Truck
WASHINGTON, D. C.—An electrical wire signal caused a bell to ring in the apartment of James A. Tatum of 25 Massachusetts avenue northwest, when his automobile truck was moved from in front of the house, and resulted in two rifle bullets hitting Edward Dempwilde 26-year-old saloon, attached to the Navy Air Station. Tatum told police he constructed the device after the battery was stolen from the machine a short time ago. The sailor claims the right to seize the truck, which he said was forfeited under a contract for sale of tires.

for an appointment to any local office, a Democrat should be named." Old Black Guard Battling Col. Anderson and the Ily-white, Time says, is a bold figure. But instead, statistic figures are Perry Howard, whose dealings in cash and Federal patronage are now being exhumed by a Senate investigation. "Ben Davis, manipulator of party politics on a paying basis in Georgia, is a mortician, for 12 years national committeeman from South Carolina.

"GAY PAREE" OWNERS AGGAIN
LAWNED
WASHINGTON, D.C.—For the second time in ten days, two "Gay Parr" programs have been launched. John M. Hancock found themselves facing charges on a sale possession of liquor, in Police court. They pleaded not guilty and found only jury trials, not to be employees of the club, also face liquor charges.
ACHING JOINTS
Mr. A. S. Jackson writes for Rutherfordson, N.C.—"I would get up mornings and my joints would ache. I would feel sore. I would feel sleepy and stupid. I didn't feel like I wanted to work.
"I heard of Black-Draught and how highly it was recommended. It certainly did me world good. So I keep it in the house all the time. It keeps me in splendid shape."
Pains in your joints and muscles are often the result of poisons which have been absorbed into the system instead of being carried off in a natural manner. These waste products cause a great deal of trouble to many people, and much relief has been achieved by using to it that the bowels act regularly and freely every day. Thedford's Black-Draught should be taken as often as necessary to open the bowels and put them in a healthy state of daily activity.

The fall of 1928, Mr. Jarvis was given the contract in the District of Columbia to bury all deceased colored soldiers. This is the first time a colorless maker has received the contract. The District-Building issued the statement for the year ending December, 1928, that W. Ernest Jarvis buried more people than any other undertaker in the city, putting his bones black or white, than in two hundred cases.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER
There is no such thing as social equality. The great mistake most southerners make is in confusing the same car with the same street car, attending the theatre, eating at the same lunch counter, and sitting together on the same jury are not so similar. We shall eventually get every civil right which is ours because it is right that we should. It will be easier to educate and educate, and we shall get there all the same. Our consolation pending the final outcome lies in the fact that as a race, we are a rubber duck and can adapt ourselves to manifold variations.
In Negro life, there is plenty of sunshine within and without.

Mr. William Cabell Bruce (Dem.), senior Maryland senator, steps out of office March 4th. Brilliant and experienced in debate, simple, yet learned in his utterances, he cut a wide swath through the hokum and buncum that usually collects around Capitol discussions and always puts out a message that are those who think Mr. Bruce will be remembered for his advocacy of the repeal of the Volsted law. He is wetted of the wets; yet there are others, Reed, (Dem. Mo.), for example, who are even more implacable foes of the 16th Amendment. Bruce will be longest remembered as a champion of those who have no spokesman of their own in the Senate Chamber. Last year, Senator Heflin, (Dem. Ala.), Senator Bench (Rep. Idaho), maintained in vigorous language that illegal disfranchisement of the Negro does not exist. Mr. Bruce stood ALONE to remark that the South is using legal immunity to nullify the 14th Amendment. Here was a real champion of plain and unvarnished truth, frankly persistent, unafraid and alone, while the northern Republicans were silent and southerners like Senator Glass were raging with what Senator Bruce described as "encouragement." An incident last week in the Senate proves that Senator Bruce is true blue, that he is always the gallant defender of the weak. Senator Blease (Dem., S.C.) turned aside from a talk on Senator Bruce to a cowardly attempt about the Nero race.

Brilliant and experienced in debate, he will be able to write better and write through the hokum and bumblebee that usually collects around Capitol discussions and always put his finger on the main issues.

Suddenly Fit
Assistant City Solicitor Arthur Briscoe, speaking at the Doug dinner in Baltimore last week, gave an explanation of Mayor Breen's appointment of four colored members to his official interesting.
Said Solicitor Briscoe:
"Appointment of Mr. Willard Allen to the Zoning and Charity Boards, Dr. Howard Young to the Jail Board and myself in the city at the time of his evidence of his acts, as we make ourselves more efficient, more appointments will be available."
Presuming that Mr. Briscoe was sincere in his remarks, and meant what he said, his error may be explained as a mistake of the head officer. Nevertheless, there isn't a scintilla of truth in what Mr. Briscoe said, and in the quietness of sober reflection he ought to admit it.
Not a single appointee of the mayor, with the probable exception of Mr. Briscoe, is under

Without reflecting upon them, everybody knows Baltimore can nominate a hundred men equally to be in the office, and he received it. then, that they did not receive in Mayor Breening's first administration, the appointments which they have received in his second. He spoke for Mr. Briscoe? Well-Mr. Breening's failure to make appointments during his first term turned thousands of votes into the Democratic camp and Mr. Howard W. Jackson was elected mayor. These same Negro bollers came near re-electing Mr. Breening, the vote which did stick by Mayor Breening, he has made these several appointments.
NO AMOUNT of efficiency could have earned Mr. Briscoe his appointment except for the bollers. It is well to remember that.

Keeping Quiet
An anonymous correspondent berates the AFPO-AMERICAN for a news article that denies suspension of a boy and a student in the local junior high school for unbecoming conduct. Despite the fact that no names were given, and the fact that the young people who were guilty of violating the rules of the school and common decey, our correspondent writes us that the incident should have passed
Despite the fact that no names were given, and no effort made to brand the young people who were guilty of violating the rules of the school and common decency, our correspondent said the incident should have passed without mention. America suffers more than any civilized land from prudery, from sex ignorance and venereal diseases. During the war, the nation was startled to learn the prevalence of social diseases when drummers were trained by Army physicians. Then the nation went to work. In booklet, in lecture and by moving pictures, Ucman-Sam set out to clean up. Since the war, interest has lagged again. Sex the drummers, it is picked up by boys and girls on the street corners. In parent-teachers associations, study of sex and the adolescent period is taboo. No effort is made to learn or discuss methods involved.

Amalgamation, Thinks This New York Reader Rescues Bacon Does Not Come Thru Prayer or Prayer. Please permit me space in your valuable paper to correct the erroneous statement made by Mr. Allen. He said the only way to salvation and peace for the Negro in America is through amalgamation, but he changed of his complexion from dark to white. You, Mr. Allen said you have lived thirty-five years in America, and you are anywhere without learning that the cause of oppression and disadvantages is not color. If it were the Negro would be the only people that would be forced to live thirty-five more years in America, you will probably be black or white suffer oppression and disadvantages imposed upon them by the stronger group than they are in contact, be white or black.
The so cause is not color. It is ignorance. And as long as we remain ignorant thinking that we are not ignorant, we will come white race and trying to become absorbed into the white race, as you are trying to do, we as well. The Negro race has many other ignorant, lazy and cowardly men, who try other ways of least God and sitting down waiting on Jesus to solve their problems in his own time. This way like yours is as much impossible as it is laziness. We are the architect of its own destiny and that all achievements come only as the result of his own efforts. We enjoy the things of life that other, people enjoy.

Every Race Has Some Superstitious Members. The Negro Has Never Had A Corner On Witch Doctors. To the Editor:
Once upon a time, superstition was thought to be confined unreservedly to the Negro, race. Recent events have brought to our minds the fact, that practically everywhere, and in every race, there is a certain amount of given superstition.
The people of France living near the Marmomme, spring, believe that when the waters of this spring gush forth it is a sign of some great change. The French army gushed forth at the beginning of the French substantiated by the fact that the "dry" spring Revolution in 1789, again at the outbreak of the European war in 1870, and its war of blooming again in 1881, were still in force. The army was signed to flow, until the Armistice was signed.
Some of the inhabitants of Ireland believe that the Banshee (a female) is the guardian of a member of that family. It is reputed that the night before Shane, an able, fearless warrior came to the Banshee to retrieve an extremely distressing. And so 20 years the natives have placed great stress on the walling of the Banshee to good authority. Germany has given credence to the visit of an apparition in white, apparently a woman, to the house of Hohencolllern. She appeared just before the Kaiser abdicated, recently she visited the house of Hohencolllern. She appeared just before the Kaiser abdicated, recently she visited the house of Hohencolllern. There are those among us who believe in haunts, confuses, and the ground hog. Some people believe that the ground hog crosses our path or, when a bird flies in our widow.

But the tragedy in Southern Pennsylvania, had all Causuman participants — people who had access to school and advantage of being born into the world free, and of scholarly layage. Yet they are bound hand and foot by ignorance, hoodoism and witchcraft, and superstitions, children in the cradle, nursed into them from their mother's breast. The law cannot wipe out this condition, for it has become a part of the people. We are shaking off our superstitions, and gaining equal footing intellectually with the more enlightened races.

Did Eve Have Any Daughters?

The question I wish to put before you to publish for further information is to ask between her second son, Abel, and her third son, Seth? If so, I wish you gentlemen would please oblige me by telling me just where I find it in the Bible.
My theory is this: If Eve didn't have any daughters within this period of time, there were other people on earth the same time she nursed into them in the garden.

Who's Inferior?
Who's Inferior?
Japanese Medical Student At Hopkins University
Asks "What's Inferior to Whom and Why?"—
Not What A Man Looks Like, But What He Is,
That Counts.
To the Editor:
In races of the world are not inferior,
they are simply different.
This statement, made by Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur,
president of the Stanford University, is both
the cause of a better understanding between the
races, which by the way, is one of the most
vital problems in the world today.
It is not that the races are not admit that
the races are even different. We do not admit
it because we do not believe it.
Different in the color of the skin, yes, differ-
ent in stage or average age, certainly in the
particular home in which the stork may happen to leave one, yes, different in customs due to the preceding genera-
tions, but different in human beings. But different as human beings; no!
Hearts and souls—the same. In every quality
that makes a man a man. In all that God
knows, in all that human generations or less,
of different races with exactly the same opportunities,
raised under exactly the same conditions,
in exactly the same environment, with education
raised the same, would make all equally human.
Racial prejudice is based on the assumption that it is the color of the skin that makes the man ignorant and manigent of one race to consider himself superior to the best educated, most cultured and most exemplary man of any race, conveniently enough that all races other than his own come within the classification of inferior. But it is not what a man looks like that really counts, but what he is.
A train robber or a murderer may be educated and most exemplary, but hardly be held superior to some of the so-called inferior race who are poor and ignorant, yet hard working and honest. Nor can they be held superior to those and cultured person of one race who is not a train robber or a murderer is superior to the hard working man, however poor might, possibly be.
This depends a great deal, more perhaps than some of the most fortunate ones appreciate, upon the particular home in which you live. Education and culture are thrust upon him, they come easy, but if in the man's hovel, one may never have a chance to obtain an education or acquire culture, he may do a man's work here for all of that, he may make the world better for having lived in it, he may scatter smiles, good humor and kind words to his fellowmen, and be the author of good works all through, and although not always a little about it, he may be well pleased with him.
It is difficult for even the man accaimed by the world as the most successful to be superior to this man who did his best with the only tools God gave him.
Old St. Peter will best able to judge who is inferior to him. God will draw no color line, for "HE HATH MADE OF ONE BLOOD ALL NATIONS OF MEN". In the meantime we will be making the most of our opportunity to prove that God the mote in the other fellows eye that we may judge our inferior, take advantage of opportunities that offer to try to understand all and all, and that will help the other fellow, the more unhappy we will be. Finally, we will want to go to war. But the more we try to understand him, and the more we assist and encourage him, the more we will love him. It seems like God arranged it that way.
Many elements enter the question of what man is superior to this man, and ourselves we believe the honor should fall to those individuals who do most to make the world a happier place to live and in that the point whether an individual be white, black, yellow, or green has nothing to
If the study of Jesus has not destroyed the myth of white superiority, or any other myth based exclusively on our own, He has not been studied right, and He needs more studying.
No one is right to be consoled, and least of all to be tainted with tint of his skin. The wisest of what ever color knows little. Life and death are riddles, as much so to the most learned as to most ignorant, we don't know what we are, and when we came, where we go when we leave. A few pretend to know, but they do not know, and judging by their trance out, to remain here, are not very anxious to find out.
But if any one thing in the scheme of life seems evident, we don't put here to prove, but to serve others. It surely cannot be expected of us that we shall be perfect, or that all of us must be great. We need people who need our high. Life is made up of little things. If we are vain, if we try to make others think that we are better than us, we must be careful in our daily intercourse with our fellman, if we are selfish and think only for ourselves, we are not only of us in the world, but the world would be better off had we

As it is now, the disfranchised Negro helps to put white members into Congress from southern states and adds votes for Democratic candidates in the election. The Negro is the most humoral and unconstitutional procedure, in which the Negro, numerical power is used to elect officers to whose election the Negro may be opposed, sometimes even against the Negro race. At such times it is would be better for the Negro if his numbers were not counted at all and the south's representation were reduced accordingly. It would certainly not disfranchise the Negro more aggressively than he is at present disfranchised.

LIFE AND DEATH
If the Senate is going to inquire into Perry Howard's bank account, it might also make public the finances of its own members and the bank accounts of members of the House.
The United States Senate during the past few years has resolved itself into an inquisitorial bureau to pry into the personal and official acts of alleged wrong doers.
One of the numerous senatorial inquiries has revealed the startling information that the Honorable Perry W. Howe, as present suspended from his position on account of charges of political graft, has deposited to his personal account the financial salary during the past two years. Perry prying into personal affairs is sought to be justified by the expected inference that the discrepant amount was derived from the state of Mississippi. As national committeeman, he is accused of imposing a tribute upon those whom
Ordinarily, it would not seem surprising that it would be important to add substance, the transferring of his affairs from one city to another, might involve a considerable amount of communication and transference. The committee has indeed launched upon a most important account of the disclosure of private accounts of senators, representatives of officials would make interest in embarrassing readings, has come to Washington a poor man, without any other visible means of support except his pittable salary difference. How does it so happen that a Negro official is picked out by whom to lodge a complaint known and widespread discrepancy?
Sinister Purpose
There does seem to be a subtle sinister purpose somewhere to disinform political control and management. Well nigh every colored man who has functioned effectively in manipulation has been placed under the opprobrium of reputed corruption. Ben Davis, sometime national commentator, has been charged similar to his Mississippi counterpart. This doughty Georgian withdrew from the party, allowing that either he or any other colored man who aspired for such leadership would be Walter Cohen, surveyor of the Port of New Orleans, formerly a moving power in Louisiana politics, and for violating the national prohibition law. R. R. Church, the fearless leader in Tennessee politics, is sought and committed with like charges of corruption.
DePriest
Oscar DePriest, congressman-elect from Chicago, must await the outcome of a plea to assume his seat with security. And now Tom Fleming, the veteran political local lord of Cleveland and aspirant for national recognition, has been appointed in office. Can it be a mere coincidence that practically every Negro politician who exerts political influence is facing deep public humiliation? It seems bewilderingly curious that this off-colored political contingent should, at this polling place, be a sudden, sudden, sudden, calcium light of public scrutiny turned upon their dark nook of the political equation. One need not be the politician, the apologist for evil deeds, nor yet a believer in the angelic purity of politicians, white or black, to have these grave and disquieting queries
Oil
Why is there not a corresponding proportion of white offenders in the country, supposed to be models of political purity as compared with their black partners in the game of chess? The President's cabinet smelled of the alleged stench of oil. Have the white strong men in the country or have they developed a finer technique, while their black yoke fellows with their martialistic skills or have they developed a corruption? No guilty man should escape; but public righteousness and wrong doing should not be complicated with race nor crime with
Too Powerful
You cannot indict the white race. It is too powerful. It is charged of political unworthiness is not confined to the evil doer but attaches to and trains the blacks. The civil scandal is explained to the satisfaction of the people, when some of the wrongdoers in the department does not even attack the Republican party of which they were members, much of whom belong. With a dependent minority group is otherwise, if he is so minced, can find plausible excuse for not giving the Negro recognition in high stations by the presence of those who have been welled and alleged to be found wanting. It is probable that the attitude between the black and white wrongdoer which gives the Negro as well grave con-
Hidden Hand
There is undoubtedly a hidden hand somewhere concealed behind the shadow of secrecy in Nigro from terminated lawyers in Nigro from the goal of one hundred per cent of American citizenship and prerogative. It is a cunning philosophy in the higher types of service, especially where he functions among and for white people. Every Negro doctor who discharges a decoctal office, every lawyer who betrays his trust to his client, every Negro doctor who honors the standard of the profession, every functional function who fails in his function serves to encourage the accomplishment of this evil purpose.
Politician
The Negro politician has been all but excluded from the public service. High places, he has given him will probably know him no more within the immediate or early future, but he has not bowed down to Baal, and that sunny scores are left who have withstood the scent of the slave. He is not based upon the exceptional man, but upon the average. If too large a percentage prove unworthy, the risk is too great to experiment with the possibility of isolating the exceptional man, unless he is a man of his class is normally seen.
Symbols
I have said some time ago that I have been told that political distress are symbols. This generation may not again see a New Yorker. If Perry Howard or Ben Davis are condemned, the race is contested. If they are condemned for this reason that every right minded Negro is keenly concerned they are not be condemned unjustly.

Grant and the Jews
While Gen. U. S. Grant was commander of the Department of the Army, he ordered a sweeping order on December 17, 1882, from his headquarters at Holly Springs, Miss. "The Jews, as we see them, were the trade established by the Treasury Department and also the department orders, are hereby ordered to receive the 24 hours from the receipt of this order." order was designed to stop illicit trading, especially in cotton. Thousands of traders and peddlers followed the Federal army and pursued them from North at a large rooftop. Some of the illicit traders were probably not. It was merely customary in the Federal army to speak of it, and it was probably in that sense that Grant used the term in his order. Be that as it may, he refract. On January 17, 1883, he issued the following order from his headquarters at Holly Springs, "General-in-chief of the Army, at Washington, the general order from these headquarters is hereby revoked."

THE QUESTION: Following their regular class dance in the Douglass High School gymnasium, a group of mid-year graduates staged a dinner dance at a local hotel. The dance closed at 4:30 a.m. Should parents have allowed these boys and girls to hold such a dance?
Miss Louise Gaskins, 1338 W. Lafayette avenue: "I will admit the supervised class dance held at the Douglass High school gym was quite a recreation for the girls and boys, but I will admit for four years and looked forward to that one great night, the parent should allow the student such a privilege."
Miss Neomi Morsell, 807 Edmondson avenue, declared, "Owing to the fact that she has looked forward to the particular gala night" for four years, the parent should allow that much liberty to dance, or she has learned to set routines.
J. A. Walker, 1934 Eighth street, Washington; No. I do not think that students should be drenched to keep such late hours. I realize that the spirit of the present generation is liberally, but if we are not for progress we are not for such things should be prohibited." Frank D. McKinney, 1938 F street. Frank D. McKinney disapprove of parents allowin' their children to stay out late in this fashion but I don't guess that my disapproval is genuine. I agree that conduct of some of the parents I have seen." A. A. Poole, Washington: "Why should they be out at such hours, but what examples do they have that would urge them to be more careful? Creston Wellingst, Lafayette Theatre: "I feel that high school students or recent graduates are doomed to impair their physical condition and warp their morals, which is a result of such conduct. One o'clock at late noon is long enough for college."
Iona McCarthy, Royal Theatre:
The present age demands that children be taught the ten or twenty back. While at first the high school student may do harm to the teacher, she will believe that the glaucoma wears off 1 in 10 before he is able to do permanent injury. Miss Bessie Lawrence, 1515 Pennsylvania avenue: "I think that the question of how late the glaucoma is a matter for their parents to attend to. The proper function of a school is to behave during school hours. After school, the teacher, in no way, should be held accountable for the child's behavior."
Morris Johnson, Knights Columbus Club: "Nowadays it is a common thing for children to ask the teacher the wee hours. I think, though, that if parents exerted the proper amount of pressure, the question would be settled without the least trouble." Mrs. Bertha Bowie, 1018 W. Vale drive, when first read, but when the situation is looked into, the truth is that they are doing their last hour business happening to students, to mean any good to them in the future. There is something like keeping such hours. The truth is, they not only stay late, but they drink, smoke and take their really make for old student's."
Does the Bible Say Angels Have Wings?
(From Pathfinder)
Nowhere in the new Testament are angels spoken of in the Bible, but in vision on Patmos John the Apostle 'heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven'
The popular notion that faithful Christians after death receive two wings is not justified by any passage in the Bible. Isaiah describes cherubim (12:12) and the cherubim that Ezekiel saw four wings. (Ezek. 1:11). The cherubim at the ends of the covenant seat in the ark of the covenant (Exod. 25:20), as well as those of olive oil (Exod. 8:24), had two wings each. These references to images of cherubs are the only order are referred to in the Bible as two-winged creatures. The scholars suppose that the Hebrew borrowed their ideas of winged seraphim and cherubim from the Hebrew hawk's heads on the walls of their buildings, and whose palaces were guarded by winged bulls and
Farm Lands
The astute Melvin Chisum, a graduate of the American Club Saturday, staled the most vital problems facing us at the present: time was short and the land was abandoned by the thousands of acres. He advocates organization to have young men and women of all ages invest in a five acre acreage for future use, and we agree with him.
The rate can be secure in an economical way, which they are degrated, unless they own sufficient land to produce all the necessities of the South which can be bought for $25 per acre—what some young high school grads spend for a light 10-year loan from now this and will have increased material in value. Here are some business men. Organize a country land corporation and become rich.
But what do most of our young businessmen do? They will have ten years from now?
Now Keep It Up Mr. Business Man
What the business men of Baltimore, and every other city, must yearn for is that they must be on the job of going out after the business of the group. They must let the ex-merchant program to sell more goods, expand and increase their employing capacity. They must keep their employees organized and spend more and more money to put their women before the buying public. They must power salesmanship as well as high-powered automobiles. Big business concerns hire experts to keep their businesses cannot expect to keep in the running unless they follow suit.
Getting The Spirit Of Cooperation
We might as well be frank with ourselves. Baltimore has been too crowded to live in town. There are some interests which concern us individually and some others which may do to do harm to our fellow citizens. This is natural; but there are also spheres where all interests converge. We must spirit to brush all others aside and unite for the common good. We only the butcher, the baker, the candle stick maker, the doctor, the lawyer, the prescriber, and teacher should be vitally involved in the business of the group.
While historians have not all agreed as to just what brought the greatest wrought havoc with that greatest of all civilizations the wrought wrought can be no question that something wrought havoc with that greatest of all civilizations the wrought wrought can be on the catechism and why? Prohibition. Here in America, a nation supposed to be at the zenith of power and prestige seems to be on the catechism and why? Prohibition. Few people realize just what the forces for and against our presidents are, to be on our country. Our gang wars, involving officials supposed to uphold law and order, are merely violent eviction. The police which shows the deep seated extent of the malady. THERE CAN'T BE NO QUESTION, THERE CAN'T BE NO WRITER, THAT UNLESS THERE EVOLVES A STRONG STATESMANSHIP TO THE MALAYSIA NATION SITUATION IN AMERICA. OUR COUNTRY IS DOOMED. The situation has far outgrown the mere question of alcoholic liquors. It is now eating at the very vitalals of the principles of law and order in the American govern
Many of our states, Maryland for instance, have truly a strong question of prohibition as did the states of the South on the slavery question. A timely war, as good as 1861, will be applied to 61, but there no hope of a war to settle the prohibition question today. The technical law on the books of the United States, our administrative and judicial machinery is standing by and shooed off but air and against the statute.

NEW YORK. — The first college club to venture a regular theatrical engagement, the gan players, were joined with a capacity and enthusiastic audience in their presentation of three one-act plays at the Alhambra Theater, Friday
In its premiere of the plays before discriminating play-goers like the Harlemites, the club achieves notable historic apprehension of the audience. Apparently after apprehension followed the acts.

As an entertainment, John H. Sundy of Sham, the most play, was perhaps the interplay of clemental human passions—prior and ambition—against opposing street life, with a mind as the central genius.
It is the familial story of the gold digging mother, of her daughters, of her daughters to marry them for money and two bank-rups her husband in her social am-
bitons.
The crisis comes when a defrauded client of Mr. Cooper, impoverished to desperation, demands the return of his life.

Though Joyce and Hal are the heroes or the play Mrs. Cooper seems to hold the center of interest, she her sheer position of calculating, enterprising and wife who infuriates masters every arising situation affecting her purpose and interest of her family, she fings herself on the husband and the sweetening revolver it is whether she does it for love of him or to frustrate the client that she might yet carry out her plans. Characters Play We. It would be difficult to improve any improvement, who played the part of Mrs. Cooper, is an able player, having fire, charm, vivacity and a keen of the dramatic power of her part. Gatsby was also well having a voice to advantage and looking the role to a degree. F. Carlton Moss played well the part of the young ambitious prisonist seeking a maiden's love. Miss Elizabeth her role was the final analysis of the supercilious and sophisticated daughter seeking to perpetuate her ease and style and professional and marriage.

Evan, a rustic girl loving with

A true note of primitive Negro psychosis is struck when Sallie, in soils and waits, sees the face of her hearing the hen crowing as an omen of his death, of seeing hell hounds flying in the air and swooping over him, when Charlie, appearing dressed as the devil at the old man's bed, draws from him a prayer of forgiveness, the hiding place of the money and his consent to the act. The play is particularly appealing as showing the ingenious mind of a rustic girl triumphing over that of a bumplin and a seasoned old man. SIRLOCK BONES A FARCE COMEDY BY RANDOLPH EDMONDS "How much lies in laughter"—Carlley. "The play is the audience of the audience a hardy and enjoyable vehicle. S. Randolph Edmonds of the faculty of Morgan College, author of the play has created a comedy rich in humor."
The story of the old rich husband and pretty young wife with many friends whom she continues to admire, and the out cropping of crooks among her guests who attempt to rob her house and finally murder a confederate, has struck him with an armor, and the role of "Stirlock Bones," the hero detective, it must be said that he played with fine originality and verve, exploiting to the full every detail of the story. The essence of the comedy was caught by the whole cast, with John H. Gundy as Elbert Hale, Frances C. H. Gundy as Edward, as Edward, Joseph W. Bostic as Dan, Osborne B. Dixon as Morty, Edward G. Carroll as "Doc" Weston, Walter L. Smith as James, Mary P. Dunn as John, and G. Henry, Dorothy A. Mitchell and Mrs. Fanida Pendelton as guest.
Costumes
All the characters were appropriately costumed, from the proud mistress of the aristocratic drawing room to the old man, to the slothful all the country ploughman. Having all the stage facilities of first rate playhouse, the scenes were well appointed. Mrs. Shirley G. McCann, head of the department of rusic at the college, expressed to the audience Morgan's appreciation of their interest in the $100,000 stone fire-proof dormitory purpose of the club for venturing the performance to raise funds towards the $100,000 stone fire-proof dormitory construction on the college grounds. "Morgan College" she said, "is doing a great work. Its graduates are admitted without condition to America, and are holding with credit positions in high schools and colleges."
The entire production was under the direction of S. Randolph Edmonds, the stage manager, the stage, was given an ovation at Mrs. McCann's mention of him.

The of George Bias, local tenor and Columbia record artist, accompanied by Ambrose Smith, and the playing of rhythmic dance tunes by Perey Glascoe and his Plantation Orchestra, constituted the special features at the AFRO Club, Saturday noon.
"I Can't Give You Anything But Love," "That Old Girl Of Mine," and "Sally Of My Dreams," were the numbers put over effectively by Mr. Blas in his very pleasant soft tenor voice, while "Doing the Raccoon," "I'm Sorry Sally," "Farewell Blues," "Louisiana Bo" and "I Guitar Give You Anything But Love," were on the program of the Plantation orchestra. The two latter numbers were played as encores after the music boys had enjoyed their plaque while "Old Girl Of Mine," was sung by Mr. Blas, as an encore.
As speaker of the day, Melvin J. Cohen, Jr. served for the Insul Corporation in that city, complimented the APRO officials and the greatest race week in the world.
Mr. Chisum also stressed the point, that the AFRO is the largest of the two race papers employing all race papers. Mr. Chisum blazed the speaker lauded the singer on his exceptional ability and his original way in putting over his songs. That the AFRO is the greatest paper because it has never been mercenary, but it has always been foundation by the founder, was also emphasized by Mr. Chisum.
Ambrose Smith Back
Filling another very prominent spot in the musical end of the program was, Ambrose Smith, Baltimore pianist, who has has been the subject of almost ten years. Mr Smith plueda medley of popular numbers for the approval of the club, which brought thurderous music to the audience. A member of Bob Young's band, Mr. Smith played various engagements in Europe a few years ago.

East Baltimore Musicians Are We Losing?—Prominent Local Talent.
Among local musicians there have from time to time appeared families which have over a long period, sometimes连续 exhibited musical aptitude of a high and varied order. East Baltimore has been extremely productive of musical families, many of whom are identified with the musical history and development of our city is the Stanley family. Luther C. Mitchell, now an organist of exponent of the Stanley family. The Woolford family has given to the world some very musical personalities. The Woolford family has always been well known for its gifted musicians, the late John Dunges was ar. organist virtuoso in his day and his brother, Mr. Charles Dunges, has for many years been at Bethel. A.M.E. Church, which post he has filled with distinction. Many of our present-day local musicians are related directly to these local family stocks or have received instruction, encouragement, and inspiration from and through the lives of those sterling musicians of
Speaking of the musicians of the type just mentioned, widely brings to mind the violinist, the violinist and composer who for many years worked untringly in the interest of good music here in Baltimore and spent time, labor and money helping the younger musicians generation to gain musical training.
Mr. Briscoe was born in California but was brought to Baltimore in infancy. His early life was marked by theological thought in being by his father, who himself was a musician of more than passing note. Later he was taught by the leading music teachers to be found. Worst of all, he was educated his educational education. Mr. Briscoe led the choir at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church. He also organized a large concert orchestra which played standard music of the masters in fine
Mr. Briscoe was a thorough drill master and the playing of his orchestra often received the commendations of commendation at the best critics of commendation to local daily papers. For many years under his splendid leadership the choir at St. Francis was a first class music organist. Frank had a able support of his sister, Mrs. Tressa Briscoe Stewart, as organist. Mrs. Stewart, the possessor of a music organ, had a voice often served in the dual capacity of contralto solist and accompanist. Mr. Briscoe also had a brother who was a 'cellist of much ability' and who was the late Ambrose Briscoe appeared to have passed on to his grand-phew, I Edward Weaver, Jr. who gives much of the becoming a violinist of distinction.
Are We Losing?
Kennard Williams, who has the uncanny knack of getting at the root of conditions in the theatrical and musical world, surely has spoken truthfully and painfully to the point, when he openly deplores the apparent lethargy of our musical promoters. A few days ago Mrs. Ruth Lee McAbbey._one of our musical leaders, spoke in the same vein.
Too much "temperament" on the part of many of our musicians is largely responsible for the lack of any real musical groups among our adults. We have four quartette of singers together without finding at LEAST FOUR out of the QUARTETTE who find it difficult to get their particular type of vocal efforts to blend to their own voice. We have voices of other members of eh group. Petty jealousies, provincial and clamish devotion to some particular voice teacher and his "method," unwillingness to work with other members of our musical work without giving at least two public performances; the desire to build up musical units based on sentiment and personal friendship, to have some occasion of occasion to the present development of choral groups.
There is, however, a bright side to the somewhat glorious picture. Many of our younger folk, instead

Well they've got more to select from down town—
Perhaps that's true but then one's self-respect is sure to be considered. Then too, at Sallie's, you'll find values and fabric that style and workmanship will be hard to match down-town or anywhere else. Try Sallie's before you go elsewhere.

Maryland Lady Was Guessing
When your child is underweight, pale and listless, is billious, sallow, feverish, fretful, with bad breath, coated tongue and no appetite, has a small sign on her little stomach and bowels are weak. Don't experiment in cases of this kind. Just follow the example of the millions of mothers who are: the Fig Syrup. Egulate their children and bowels and give tone and strength to these organs so they continue to act normally, of their own accord. All women on this rich, fruity, pleasant-tasting preparation clears up the most stubborn cases of constipation and makes pale, lifeless children rosy-cheeked, bright-eyed, H. Sherl, 31 East Mt. St. Baltimore, says: "From the very first my little girl, Grave Virginia, had trouble with her stomach and bowels. She needed to give her some G. voriana Fig Syrup. Soon she started gaining weight and now she's the picture of health." See that the Fig Syrup you buy bears the name of her, so you want it by implants.

Insurance Merger Of Three Companies Not Completed Yet
CHICAGO, Ill.). Feb.—(ANP.)—Officers of the three Old Line Life Insurance Companies reported to be about to offer a merger, were not prepared to give a statement on the consolidation when interviewed Friday.
Dr. M. O. Bousfield, president of Dr. Lacy Life, and Harry H. Face, head of Northeastern, characterized the report as premature and preferred to await the final working out of details before making a formal or detailed appraisal of the scope of the merger. Dr. Bousfield said: "I regard such a combination as a mighty step forward in the development of insurance business among us. Some of the largest financial institutions were consulted from the mergers of several separate enterprises. I hope an announcement can be made soon."
Dr. Robert R. Moton, president of the National Negro Business League, said:

Anthony Overton, banker and insurance head, said: "The proposed merger is in the process of completion, and in their getting together all three companies will be helped. Such a move shows that we are arriving at the place where we are going to be the business itself in front of the matter of merely holding office. As a rule in our affairs, each

Cough and Wheeze Stopped: Two Years Ago. Well Ever Since.
Any one tortured an asthma or bronchial trouble will be glad to read how these alliments were ended for Mrs. George Kleifer, Route 2 Box 761. Indianapolis. She writes:
I suffered from asthma 15 years. I everything, but was told I inherited asthma and there was no cure for it so was bad enough to house it. I hardly walk across the house on account of my breathing, and used to sit up in a chair and sit on the floor. The second night after beginner Nice I sleep in bed all night. I have not noticed any asthma, but the first framing film, wheezing and I sleep fine. You will enjoy reading many other letters from people who recovered after years of chronic cough, and have had no return of the trouble. These letters and a book of vital information about these diseases, and the 911 State Life Blog. Indianapolis. Ind. No matter how serious your case, write for me to health, as it has thousands of others.

Morgan Bus Loses It's Way In Fog On N.Y. Trip
MORGAN BUS LOST IN FOG ON N. Y. TRIP
Dense Mist Caused Driver To Wander Far Off Lincoln Highway
FEW MISSED RECEPTION
BY NATHANIEL GARLAND
Dense, impenetrable fog enveloped the Morgan College club bus near Trenton, New Jersey, around 4 o'clock Friday morning and delayed the trip to New York some three hours.
Groping blindly through the heavy mist, the driver forced at times drop to the lowest speed on a duty bus, but delayed far off the Lincoln Highway. There was no uneasiness. Practically all were sleeping well. The others seemed assured of the competence of the driver.
Over a labirinth of by-roads unfamiliar to him, the driver by dawn regained New Brunswick at 7 o'clock, regaining his bearing.
Fog was encountered when the bus hummed onto the Roosevelt Driveway which leads out of Philadelphia. Though heavy here, no difficulty was met, however, owing to the wide and brilliantly illuminated driveways. Highways approaching Philadelphia seemed to be the lightest of any this side of Newark, New Jersey. Baltimore Dark Excepting North Avenue for a few "accelerations" and 23rd street for half as many and North Charles street as fewer still, the Baltimoreaches, considering the size of the city, are the darkest of any on the North highway.
In the absence of a moon Thursday night, the humming bus was forced to penetrate narrow treebowered pikes, descend serpentine chasms, rush over steep grades guided only by a small glare of the headlights playing 10 feet from the hood of the bus. At times the driver inconveniently employed the spotlight to penetrate the blackness of the foreground, but was, however, the occasional frantic flashing of danger signals at exceptionally perilous places along the Maryland highways.
Delaware
No thought was given to narrow roads; if dark ones, after crossing into Delaware. There the highways are wide and straight, affording safe speed.
**Black Cat Tea Room**
About 13 miles south of Winnington the huge, staley bus halted before a small brightly colored design, "BE BETE Tea Room." It was rather interesting that everything could be bought there—legitimately—from gasoline to phonograph music. The place appeared to be the rendezvous of the touring East, from the license tags of the parked cars. Lionel Licorish would find no complaint there, for it seems that the dimes and quarters are what the eager waiter seized in the refrigerated with "hamburger" and pie, the students resumed their merry-making, which, started at leave-taking of the c llege, had died away in the dark reaches of the Maryland drives. Speeches, recitations, college ditties and popular songs were rendered until either exhaustion of Morpheus inside the bus just before the entry of the for episode.
Arrives At 10:30 A.M.
The wainning bus drew up before the W.Y.C.A. on 137th street. New York City at 10:30 Friday morning, making the trip in 10 hours. A syndicate cameraman took pictures of the cast, the club immediately proceeded to the Alhambra Theatre. A rehearsal of the plays followed.
The Way Of Harlem
At midnight at the theatre just before time for the show to begin, things looked bad. Only a few seats were taken. The seating arrangement was the only who are not equipped with the ways of Harlem. When time to lift the curtain came, however, all but a few seats in the auditorium, gallery, and the boxes were taken.
Miss Reception
Some of the Baltimore students missed the reception that the Epsilon Chapter of Omega Psi Phi gave in honor of the dramatic club Saturday night. Finding no one to join, the yelock the Baltimoreers concluded that: 'these would be no dance and went to the Y.W.G.A. from where the bus would leave for Baltimore after midnight. Carried back to the hall at 14:45 by the bus to bring the remainder of the club to the Y.W.G.A. before going to the students found that there was hardly dancing room in the hall.
Return Enjoyable
The return trip was uneventful. There was no fog. Leaving New York at 3 a.m. david broken long before reaching Trenton. All was running, and lightness from Elizabethtown, New Jersey, to Morgan College.
A Correction
An article headed "114 Men and Women Arrested in Raids," appearing in last week's 1604 ADF stated that Henry Morris, 1604 Madison avenue was arrested in a raid. Mrs. E. W. Gray, who lives at this address, states that no one by this name lives there.

**DEATH in. The family**
'AT A MEETING of the Afro Club an out-of-town newspaper man who once upon a time edited the assembly. In Baltimore, spoke of the assembly. During the meeting of his remarks he said many instances' when the "wolf" stalked right into the press room itself.
The gentleman related some instances in detail but he did not mention the time that he was tipped off that the American Type Foundry was sending up a wagon snatch his unimpressed type. The title occasion, used, rare judgement and decision. Getting in touch with a local undertaker, he procured a crepe and when the wagon arrived a sign on the door said: "Closed on account of death in the family."
A "Blind" Right On
In a poker game when a man gets "washed out" it is customary for the party to ask for a blind. "Blind" is free entered into a pot. As far as I remember a blind is only asked for in a poker game, but last Saturday on lower McCullough street I saw a man ask for a "blind" who was not in a poker game. He simply reached out of the window, took a blind off of its hinges, took a side, broke up, broke himself with a knife, both cases, however, a "blind" was essentially for the same purpose—"A life saver."
Different Methods
BALTIMORE HAS LONG been noted as a cold town for the剧院. Not only is it hard to get the house full, but once it is full it is just as hard to get a hand. Laws against the剧院 have different methods were used to persuade the audience to give an outward expression of inward pleasure. At the Royal Theatre, Irvin Miller, producer of the attraction, came out before the footlights and told just who they were, what kind of applause they got on Broadway, how good they were, and suggested that the audience give them plenty of applause. When the parties something little beaten up the avail-ble Baltimore applause was the result.
Down town at a vaudeville house a man walks out on the stage just before the performers come on. He tells them that people come at that performance but that at this performance they were going to do so or find an exit. Thereupon he pulls out two big guns and exhibits them, at the same time saying that he will be back. The man then joins in. The "Chicago" system seems to get it.

Who Bent the Derby?
JOHN T. NICHOLSON, known better as "Dude Dick," long a cane man, Eastern section of the country, wandered up Pennsylvania avenue. Tuesday night, with a "bend" in his derby, the remains of a cane in his hand and slightly out of sorts. Speculation was rife as to just who bent his derby. When interviewed, stalker, clerk, called to illuminate his audience other than to-say. "A stop is going to be put to that sort of thing." Many people thought he must have bumped his head and thus bent his derby, but the broken cane stopped his run. However, he is ten to one "Dude" will get a new cane before he gets a new derby.
All For Nothing
Dr. Carter G. Woodson spoke at the Douglass High School during Negro History Week. In his line the doctor stands out preeminently; and it must be admitted he has done a great work in building a cultural background for the Negro race. A background is absolutely necessary to any one who is making a success or intends to do so. He notices it as soon as a man puts money he starts finding out things about his forbears he never knew before. As a matter of fact, there are agencies who deal exclusively in this line of work. If you have enough money the ancestor agencies will descend you from anybody you want to be descended from. For a whole lot of money they can connect you up with royalty. Thus,

it goes with persons. I race. When I was a small boy you could hear of only a few great Negroes and their achievement. For them achievement was harder. Douglass, Crispus Attucks, Alexander Dumas, and Toussaint Lovetrille comprised the whole works. Now it is different. We have, for instance, a Negro general, a contemporary of Napoleon, who made the "little corporal" look like a boy scout. He founded Mexico, another Negro upon whose efforts the Russian literature has been built up and had it not been for him it is doubtful if the Russians could talk at all, another Negro loaned Rothschild the money that he in turn loaned great countries. But he and many who are almost crowding Booker T. and Fred out of the picture.
The thing is grand but to get this kind of service the person or the race must have money to build up a past. Unlike other races and peoples, we are getting our history for nothing; for, be it it understood that the race, with the exception of the Eskimo, who have more frozen assets than any other race, still controls more poverty than any other race on earth.
The-Douglass Day dinner held under the auspices of the Adelphian Club, was worse this year than it was last year, if a thing could be that bad. The food was well enough, but the conduct of the affair was ridiculous. The guests "at down as late as 13:00 at night and listened to an insurance talk read off of a typewriter, and passed by Mr. C. Vickers, the president of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, vice-president of the Bankers' Fire Insurance. Company, president of the fifth largest building association in North Carolina, president of the Farmers and, Mechanics Bank of Durham, and faye, in whose work blackwings had taken place, in whose commemoration the thing was held, was given a lick and a blow and put back into the closet until Douglass Day of next year. The committee on aring these dinners for some few years, arrangements, it seems, has it is hoped that if they have the skill of had enough practice, courage to struggle with the dinner next year the business will be better attended to and more emphasis put on Douglass.
