From all that car he be warned "has not even seriously considered such a step, nor does notice has the step of able man like Mr. Hall is almost, beyond comprehension. "Charlie" Hall, as he is familiarly known, is the president of the United States Census Office at Washington as a government satatistian that he hr: "grown gray" in his youth. Perhaps the full force of the need of the race to have a colored farmer on the board was not clear. Or it may be that none of the candidates exhibited any real desire for the appointment after the attitude on polling administration became clearly defined.

There is very little time left now for the outgoing administration to make good, and so the fight must be to be carried to the incoming one.

KEEP STOMACH YOUNG! Eat What You Want When the food you eat goes into your acid-soaked stomach, it soups up the blood and causes your sore bile. The blood takes these poisonous acids and carries them through the body. Naturally, it makes you miserable and despondent, because the system is not nourished — you lose all the energy. Pape's Diapsepiss dissolves the acids and sweetens the stomach. It digests food; no more soups in your stomach. You appetite is like a youngster's again, and gradually you get back your health, flesh and energy. It is a burger or two of Pape's Diapsepain after meals. It tastes good and relieves the misery of indigestion in five minutes. It will keep your stomach young and vigorous without being afraid of the consequences.

PROMPT AND POLITE SERVICE Pastors Inquire Into Jim Crow Comfort Stations PASTORS HIT J. C. COMFORT STATIONS Committee Named To Go Before Comptroller Walter Graham MR. EMERSON SPEAKS City Councilman Declares There's No Law For Signs A. M. E. pastors, meeting at Bentall Church Monday, appointed a committee to investigate jim-crow public comfort stations in the city. The Rev. J. E. Lee called special attention to the comfort station at Lafayette market where he said sign announce separate compartments for white and colored persons. He called upon City Councilman Walter S. Emerson who was present to say on behalf of the city why the department closed. Mr. Emerson stated that he had investigated the matter of jim-crow accommodations in the public comfort stations and discovered that it came directly under the office of Comptroller Walter Democrat. Mayor Dooven, he said, wanted to do with the comfort stations. No Law The Rev. Charles E. Stewart declared that he was aware of no law which permitted the city of Baltimore to set aside the land and certain others for colored, that frequently he had disregarded these signs and used that part of the comfort stations supposed to have been reserved for whites. Attendants evidently knew that there was no law to compel this segregation, he said, because he was never molested. The comfort station, the pastor said, he took the sign marked "White" down and threw it into the street. Mr. Emerson also declared that he had authorized jim-crow signs because there was no law authorizing a jim-crow comfort station. White Nurses At High School Association of the Rev. Charles E. Stewart, chairman, the Rev. C. E. Walden, of Ebenezer Church, and the Rev. John T. Colbert, of Grace Presbyterian Church, was appointed the Health Department is employing a white physician and a white nurse for the examination of pupils at Douglass High School.

When the week during the summer months, Dr. Jones Talks Dr. C. Hampson Jones, commissioned to the AFRO-AMERICAN Monday, that he did not know whether or not a white physician and nirse were the work at Douglass High School.

INSTEAD of exercise Too busy for exercises or games? Don't worry! Learn the simple secret, millions know—of the exerciser in the vest-pocket box for a dime! Cascarets give your bowels as much exercise as they get from an hour with the punching bag. Oils, salts and ordinary laxatives don't act like Cascarets. These things only produce mechanical or chemical action. You have to keep taking them because they weaken your bowels. Cascarets strengthen the bowels. They are made from Cascara Sagrada, which stimulates the peristaltic action and exercises the bowel muscles. Nothing else does this. That's why Cascarets give lasting relief from those symptoms of sluggish bowels—such as headaches, billousness, bloating, sallow skin, indigestion, no appetite, etc. Sales of over 20 million boxes yearly prove their merit! CASCARETS STRENGTHEN THE BOWELS Bishop John Hurd of Baltimore who is reported to have ousted Dr. E. H.

WHISKEY TAINTS SOME 'AMENS,' SAYS PASTOR HITS SHORT DRESSES That some worshippers, voleuries in their shouts and amens reveal whiskey breaths, was declared by the Rev. G. J. Garnett, pastor, Morning Star Baptist: Church, Sunday. "Iinfrequent reading of and misinterpretation of the Holy Scriptures is fast making backsliders out of numbers of church members who actually believe themselves to be Christians," he said. "Two Tim. 3:10, the speaker argued from the subject: 'The Holy Scriptures,' emphasizing that they were given by inspiration to men for men, and that the basis of their faith is the law and order is traceable to the Holy Writ. Other observations made by the minister during the discourse for me." "Conversion within itself certainly cannot be indicative of a Christian life, for the devil today has as many people converted to his methods and program apparently is our Saviour." "The purposes of God are twofold: positive and permissible; but as usurpers or backwards, we attempt to explain why God allows a saint to suffer in want and pain while the gambler prosper, with 'direful result, challenge to the omniscience of the Diety. "Twenty years ago our mothers and grandmothers would walk ten miles in trailing skirts to hear the Scripture, and then won't walk ten blocks unless they wear a $50 dress and it reaches to their kneecaps." In closing the pastor paid tribute to the woman diverting a portion of their wealth to charity and the church. "John Wamaker: he shouted, 'certainly had a better chance of getting into Heaven, then a number of skiff flunt church places, then a talk skiff place. Mr. Rockefeller too, has amassed millions, vet he is a believer in God's Word. There he is no scripture, denomination of riches that are used in part for charitable purposes."

Pastor Can't Live In City And Preach In The Country The church in South Carolina has lost 30,000 members recently, declared the governor of South Carolina speaking at the A. M. T. Ministers' Meeting on Monday. Mr. Garrett declared that the South Carolina church lost 30,000 members before the migration and the urge of country dwellers to find homes in the cities. The church is not only losing members, it said, but is losing its respect, for pastors. People curse, drink an, gamble openly before the minister today, said Mr. Garrett, where the pastor was looked up to as a man of God years ago. Part of this is due to the fact that the minister now lives in the city and comes out to the country to common only on Sunday, he continued. When he comes, Mr. Garrett declared, he is in a hurry to take the collection, he sends his children to pay. On Monday he is gone, and the community is without a preacher until the next week. On the other side of the question, Mr. Garrett says, justified in living in the city because there is no life, no education and no culture in the country, the roads are dark, muddy and in some seasons of the year full of pastors who do stay in the country, he said, are compelled to see their wives pick cotton and wash and iron in order to help them raise sufficient money to carry to connec Making fun of D.D.'s. Mr. Garrett declared, that D.D. meant "dead dog." and a good many pastors with a good D.D. mean "not know their English grammar." Bishop Orders Secretary Out How Bishop John Hurst of Baltimore, ordered Foreign Missionary Secretary E. H. Coit, of New York, out of his conference, was told by T. G. Garrett, of South Carolina, on a visit this week. According to Mr. Garrett, Secretary Coit to some of the South Carolina pastors to make the assessments too high. When the bishop learns of it, he ordered the missionary secretary to leave the room, Mr. Garrett. "I am your friend, have your friend After laying in a trance for three hours, he said, "God of God to bring back a woman's speech that had not spoken for one hour." He said, "He that hevelveth in God Believe Rice Memorial School New Brunswick, N. J. EST. 1897 BODY OF CHRIST WAS LIMITED Despite the body of Jesus Christ, the Son of God Omnipresent, Omnipotent and Immutable He had a material body composed of flesh and blood and everything essential as the body of other men. In this respect He was limited ad subject to pain, fatigue, hunger, thirst and even death, declared the Rev. W. H. Manokoo, pastor of St. Paul Church, Washington, D.C. speaking before the A.M.E. Missionary Society, Monday. The Rev. Mr. Manokoo declared that Christ referred to Himself as the Son of Man some 80 times in the Scriptures, that He increased in wisdom, that He was not informed of the coming day of judgment. He was limited as to human intelligence, Dr. Manokoo said. The Rev. John W. Norris and the Rev. J. W. Warren took issue with Dr. Manokoo. He was impossible for Christ to be limited and Omnipotent at the same time, they declared. IS DEIFYING J E S U S CHRISTIAN-HEATHEN? IS DEIFYING J E S U S CHRISTIAN-HEATHEN? NEW YORK. — Because Francis J. McConnell, white, of the Methodist Church, recently asked the question, "Is not the tenth question I ask the Christian?" his selection as president. of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America has arrows objection of conservatives. Bishop McConnell seems to think that the idea of making Jesus disciples is very shocked. Dr. Donald M. Grant, of First Presbyterian Church, Mountsville, W. Va., in a letter to the "Presbyterian" declares "that if that is Bishop McConnell's position, the Presbyterian church can consent to remain in the Federal Council while Bishop McConnell is president." Preacher Is Target For Many A Critic Preacher Is Target For Many A Critic A Texas paper comments as follows: "The preacher has a great time. If his hair is gray, he is old, if young man, he has not had experience. If he has ten children, he has too many; if he has none, he isn't setting a good example. If he is presuming, if she doesn't, she isn't interested in her husband's work. If a preacher reads from notes, he is a bore; if he speaks extemporaneously, he stays at home; if his study, he doesn't mix enough with the people; if he is seen around the streets, he ought to be at home. If he calls on some poor family, he is playing to the grandstand; if he calls at the homes of the wealthy, he is an aristocrat; ever he does, some one could have him to do better."

Despite the D.D.'s the pastors who use bad grammar can't fool the young people of today, although they could fool their mothers and sons." Church papers are not worth a dollar. They are not worth that the editors are so busy pleasing the bishops and general officers that they never get down to real- liness. "They are pleasing everybody, filling the paper with chaff, straw and trash. All of them would die if the preachers have not compelled to mourn them. We read our daily and weekly papers, he said, and seem not to be able to get along without them, but preachers have not compelled to subscribe to the annual papers. Bishops Mr. Garrett said that the ministers are now carrying the idolizing of bishops too far. At every annual conference, he said, there are men on the floor, moving chairs, and the other; a car, an episcopal residence, and money, besides that to which he is entitled by law. At the same time there are pastors who murmur in the conference who are not able to make a living. It is a difference between popularity and humanity, he said. Of course, all bishops, he declared, have LLD, attached to their names. What is not known to him, he added. The Rev. W. H. Baker, secretary of the ministers' meeting, read his resignation.

Opp. Lexington Market Rogers Tells How African Tribes Overran Europe BLACK HORDES ONCE SWEPT OVER EUROPE In Early Centuries, SaysRoers, Negro Tribes Migratted Even To Ireland RACE MIXING GOING ON FOR MANY CENTURIES pean Courts PARIS, France, (By J. A. Rogers.) — In any attempt to predict whether amalgamation will take place or not, one must take at least three factors into consideration: the psychologic, the historic; and the economic. The psychologic: Some months ago a Montmartre in France, an Négic music, imported a colored jazz band from America. Soon after the band had arrived a tited Englishwoman, of a very wealthy family, took to the band, fancy to the him and finally danced much with him, not as her servant, mind you. Pullman Porter Years ago I can recall a similar thing happening to a Pullman porter at Oakland, California, who he offended by the car as if he had been a passenger. He was on his way for a trip through the Orient to Europe. Another wealthy English woman, whom I am familiar with, named German journalist, once told in Die Zukunft how the Negroes from Hagenback's Circus would be missing. German society women used to steal them. And so on I could continue to give others of the hundreds of instances I have collected in the last fifteen years, not in lowly life, but in high Letty Brown There is the recent case of Mrs. Lotty Brown and Carlton Curtis of Mayflower ancestry. Millionaire Curtis was only doing what Curtis, Jeffries, Franklin and almost every southern gentleman worthy of the name, and no small number of northern ones. too have been doing over a period of time. There is no stratum of white society; however high, in which the same has not been over the Negroes Queen Marie Theresa, wife of Louis XIV, of France, bore a child for a Negro, a fact well authenticated by Voltaire, the Duke of St. Simon, Mlle. Montpensier, the king's cousin. Ira Aldridge Ira Aldridge. Shakespearean actor, married a Swedish countess and the son of Toussaint L'Ouverture married the daughter of the Marquis de La Rue. When Napoleon's brother-in-law, Gen Le Clerc, sailed for Haiti he took his wife, Pauline, and ladies noble, strong and strong in the reaction which the black races exercise on European women," as one writer puts it, that Le Clerc was forced to issue an order that the first lady see home, regardless of rank. If Fouche, himself, is to be believed, Pauline Bonaparte was among the first to violate that order when Le Clerc was down with Ten Cases Were I free to do to do I could name offhand at least ten Negroes in England and America being supported by white women, bearing children and two black men, who are very much sought after in the best circles. I have selected instances in so-called high life, being the most popular belief, the pretended belief, among certain classes of colored and white, is that only the lowest individuals of both groups get together. Recently Dr. Wibergerio told me that he would like to let slip. He said that on his way to Europe he met on the ship some white persons whose company was very agreeable to him, and he spent some time with them, and colored passengers—a school teacher of the pea, sex-reprimanded him ```markdown ``` Does Your Back Hurt?

But they were very fine white people, and they were nice people, were nice people, retorted the school ma'am, "they would not sit, eat, and associate with a Negro." The historic: What has been said about the history of what has been taking place as far back in recorded history as one can go, which is ten thousand years, at least. Over a period of a vast amount, this evidence In Ancient Egypt In ancient Egypt black and white mixed freely. For at least ten thousand years black and white have been mixing on both shores of the Mediterranean. The same process has been used by the Egyptians and the Negroes who migrated there. For at one time the Negro roamed the world as the white man once did, leaving traces of himself as far as the Nile. The present time there are some three or four million unmixed Negroes still living in that region, while in India there are some thirty or forty million Negroids, known as the Dravid- Mixing In Europe According to Sir Harry Johnston the Negro also invaded Europe about the same time, leaving traces of himself in the peoples of Western Brittany, Dinavia, while noted anthropologists like Sergi, Brinton, and Von Luschan insist that the white European is but a bleached product of a Negroid race which strayed northwards from the Mediterranean. During the days of the Caesars hundreds of thousands of Negroes were brought to Rome as slaves and as gladiators, and they finally mixed in with the population. Juvenal in the Sixth Act tells how the noble Rome used to cohabit with these Negroes. South Europe Later came the Mohammedan invasion of Southern Europe, leaving the country largely uninhabited, allowing came the introduction of Negro slavery into Southern Europe. This lasted over a period of three centuries. Modern Negro slavery began in 1442, and emigration occurred in 1773. During that time hundreds of thousands of Negroes were imported into Europe, and many were being absorbed by the white population. After The War In fact it would appear that there are periodic invasions of Europe by Negroes which date beyond the Stone Age. During the last war, and after, thousands of colored children were born to white mothers who are still going on in England, France, Italy, Belgium, and Spain. In Brazil When one turns to the New World one finds the mixing of white and black on a yet more astonishing palette. The West Indies and most notably in the United States. Forty years after the entrance of the New World, the record of missegregation. The man involved was soundly whipped but the process has continued in spite of the fact that the people of South Carolina and Mississippi are so mixed that persons the only real whites, that is, persons of European stock, to be found there are not to have come there within recent years. Blue-Blood Virginia If it were possible to trace back accurately the ancestry of the awers, the sight would be revealed. The recent exposure brought on by the attempt to pass a race-registration law in that country might one might expect to see could the truth be known. Thus, it would seem that in spite of the rhinoceros type made by those of the rhinoceros type of mind—a type that exists mostly in the United States—the mixing of black and white skulls, hills, or the waves, winds, and tides Original Color Brown Enough has been said to show that it is imbedded in the psychology of the white man. The great philosopher, Aristotle, wrote to explain this passion of the white for the dark-skinned races said that a white skin was an abnormality comparable to white mice or celery that the original color of mankind was black, and that the color of black and white, nature was striving to return to the normal. Primitive Negro Wants No Race Mixing Space will not permit me here to go into the psychology of the Negro man. I mean the original Negro in his native clime. I have gone into the Negro world and have prepared on race-mixing thru all the ages and in all lands—a work that I hope either to be able to accomplish on some day, or meet some one who will. Suffice it to say that I have brought forth abundant evidence from African travellers, who are the most primitive Negro instead of wishing sex association with white people, at first sight of them, runs away, taking them for ghosts or hobbitholes. The next time I mix it is the white who has nearly always taken the initiative. Citations The Negro—I do not mean the Caucasian Negro—has always considered his own color sufficient for himself: the white does not. As proof of this, the color of his teeth from the foremost white thinkers and scientists. The Economic Element The economic: in the matter of sex association in as everything else, the weak are at the mercy of the rich, the powerful are at the mercy of the rich. The rich white man seeks a concubine among the poor whites, but a wife among those of the poor whites were white, it would make little difference so long as they remained poor. The difference of color has merely heightened the sex attraction. If The Negro Were Rich I have the Negro who were rich instead, it would be he who would be seeking concubines among the whites. In Europe the rich Negro readily finds a white woman, the Negro remains poor, race-mixing in America will proceed on the lines it has been going, and as long as color remains the same, more ambitious Negroes are going to strive "to be white," either by bleaching, or by marrying such whites as have them, the Negro is producing a lighter-colored, less handicapped generation. The Mulatto In America it is the mulatto who is looked up to, but in parts of Africa where black is no handicap, he is looked down on. (See translation of an article by Albert Londres I gave in a recitation of a subject is a vast one and in an article one can but touch its bare outline.

Granted this I cannot agree with Prof. Miller that the Negro in America will tone up, or today in America will you will, to a brown. The race will become lighter and still lighter. And if I might inject my own feelings in the matter I'd say, I don't give a hang whether it does not. Accidents Of course as Prof. Miller points out birth control is on the increase among colorectal cancer patients even in the best regulated families. If they did not heaven only knows how many of us now alive would be. The case seems evident: a unifying of humanity so far as race is concerned, is in progress. Humanity began as one; it separated becoming one. Now after long ages it seems to be getting together: it is realizing its kinship; it is becoming one. Now the reactions black, white, or mottled, will be able to prevent it. Anglo-Saxon Lands The blacks and *I*-rows are due for a further lightening by the whites and are due for darkening by the former. And it must always be remembered that it is only in Anglo-Saxon lands that a question comes near being a mania. Clearing House 1 large can Clear House, Dream Room, Dream Book.

Was it wild? Well, Bachus himself passed before midnight, and along about two o'clock the shade of Raibala returned to its tomb with its head hanging low in defeat. Four bushes of vine leaves were swept out by the maids Sunday morning, and along with them the following days, bones and hanks of hair: Maude Meyers, Jules Bledsoe, Rose Ellis, Rena Lewis, Mr. Anderson, the Eduardo Castros; Bessie Tompkins, Mrs. Percy Brown, Lottie Tyler, Mrs. Joseph Dickerson, on the Kaska Bonds, Lucille Randolph, Alvin Moses, the Marshall Rosses, the Sol Johnson, Katherine Johnson, Richmond Barthe, Clinton Moore, McClary Stinnette, Harold Jackman, Jenn Golden Smith, Alonso Tucker, Bertha Lambert, Gay Ingram, Etta Cachemalle, Mr. Chapman, Nappy Napoleon, Andrew Payne, Ernest C.

For the birthday, you made whoopie on his birthday, last Wednesday evening, and stayed until the last minute, in fact, were put on with the M-Fielding meld.

Portraits In Clothes Closet And All experience day by day. Lord! And now we have an galleries in clothes closets. Actually! I would not have believed it had I'm not in one myself—an extraordinary enclosure containing a most detectable assemblage of some three hundred portraits. This intimate cube is the sanctum of motto-mentation—the same of the most invaluable study of those features, graces, gulges and what not of the cognoscenti of le beau monde. Mr. Max Ewing, the exhibitor, has shown rare classic taste in arrangement.

Rivers Joins Bar Ass'n Negro Not Most Needy Group Among New Yorkers NEW YORK. — The Negro is not the most needy group in New York according to the 48th annual report of the Organization Society made public here last month. The report shows that the largest single nationality aided by the society last year was the native born Negro, who made up 37 per cent of the entire group. Thirteen hundred fifty whites were aided by the society. The Hallans came next with 20-6 per cent and fifty-six of them were aided by the society. The Negro was third with 14-6 per cent. Six hundred eighty-six of them were aided by the society. The Irish came fourth with 7.3 per cent; 340 of them being aided. Fifth came the hite Porto Ricans with 5.1 per cent or 237 persons aided by the society. The German whites came sixth with 122 persons aided or 2.6 per cent of the entire number of Germans in the city. The Organization Society dispersed $1,070,000 last year of which more than one-half was used in the service of needy families. The number of unemployed colored persons in the organization Society has increased in past years due to the unemployment situation. The report says "The most significant changes in the nationality group for the past decade have been the colored, both native and foreign born, and of the Porto Ricans. This has been accompanied by decrease in the number of immigrants coming from Ireland, Germany, and other Central European countries. "The number of colored families under our care this year totaled 1,000,000,000. In the United States and the others came chiefly from the West Indies and South America. Of the 407 million immigrants, 24 percent had been in New York City less than five years and 45 per cent less than 10 years." 3 GET DEGREES FROM UNIVERSITY OF PENN.

I found that I was getting thin, and that my heart was getting tired and worn-out. I felt tired and worn-out. Instead of my studies being a pleasure, they were a task. It was so trying not to be able to enjoy anything, that being tired was a good tonic. I decided to take it. After taking Cardui, I felt so much better and stronger.

The Baltimore American is not adverse to getting anything it can and like many newspapers does not have care to give the source where it belongs, it derives its information. The case in point was the publishing two letters last summer to H. J. Prescott, chief of staff to President Roosevelt, and President Roosevelt's reply. Both letters were taken from the columns of the New York Times. the AFO-HILEE This is your the first instance in which the great fellies have condescended to take news items from our columns without giving credit for the same. The Baker Case The case of the Rev. W. H. Baker, accused of unauthorized solicitation of funds from Battimore business men and of using such funds for his personal benefit, is one in which the public should interest itself. The pastor admits the offense and then by way of quasi-defense states that he has been placed in charge of a rural church at Worton, Md., which has 50 members and is able to pay its parson only $6 a week. A laborer and a pastor are worthy of their hire. A denomination which sends a pastor to a mission which should make it possible for him to live and give his family bread and shelter. A church able to pay for only $6 worth of gospel every Sunday will not be likely to give a sermon worth any more. Better for them to invest in a radio and tune in on the gospel message from those who have time to communicate with God, and who are not using all their energies to keep the wolf from the door. The current negotiation even more than the city need of upstanding, wide-awake, progressive leadership. There ought never be any question about giving them the best that can be had. Licorish Medal During the World War, Private Edward H. Handy, of Washington, D. C., Company B, 38618 Infantry, crossed an open space 50 yards wide under shell and machine-gun fire to rescue a wounded soldier and carried him to a place of safety. For this Private Handy was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross of the United States. A congressional medal was also granted Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh, the first to fly alone across the Atlantic Ocean. Mr. Lionel Lichiric saved 22 persons who would otherwise have gone down with the steamship Vestir, last year, risking his own life with each rescue, and heroically battling all night long until he handed his human cargo over to a rescue steamer. There must be degrees of personal courage. Then he be some question as to the quality of bravery shown in the exploits of Lindbergh and Handy based on what each expected to get out of risking his life. However, there is general agreement on the proposition, greater love hath no man than that he be willing to lay down his life for his friend. On that basis Private Handy deserved his medal and Quartermaster Lichiric twenty medals. Nevertheless, the Wetler bit to present Mr. Lichiric a congressional medal still pig-holed in the House Committee. Congress will reward Lindbergh who risked death to prove trans-oceanic flights possible, nods and smores over the Lichiric road. A congressional medal was also granted Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh, the first to fly alone across the Atlantic Ocean. Mr. Lionel Lizard savior saved 22 persons who would otherwise have gone down with the steamship Vestir, last year, risking his own life with each rescue, and heretically alight all night until he handed his human cargo over to a rescue steamer. He may be degrees of personal courage. There may be some question as to the quality of bravery in the exploits of Lindbergh and Handy based on what each expected to get out of risking his life. However, there is general agreement on the proposition, greater love hath no map than that he be willing to lay down his life for his friend. On that basis Private Handy deserved his medal and Quartermaster Lizard twenty two medals. Nevertheless, the Weiler bill to present Mr. Lizard a congressional medal still lies pig-con-holed in the Union Committee. He was thus pushed to reward Lindbergh who risked death to prove trans-oceanic flights possible, nods and snores over the Lizardish award. Incidents like this indicate the need of Negro representation in Congress. Mr. Oscar DePriest cannot take his seat too soon. New York and St. Louis are implored to see that Chicago's black Congressman soon has company. Mr. Oscar DePriest cannot take his seat too soon.

"Hi" Court Ponders The Supreme Court of the United States does well to ponder over the Shrine case, which has been before it for over a year without a decision. As an evidence of the importance and difficulty involved, it need be noted that only one other case on the calendar is as old as that of The Supreme Court of the United States does well to ponder over the Shrine case, which has been before it for over a year without a decision. As an evidence of the importance and difficulty involved, it need be noted that only one other case on the calendar is as old as that of the Shriners. It involves the right of the Ancient Egyptian Arabic Order, Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, a colored Masonic organization, to use the same name, or digital, as used by whites. The Shrine is one branch of the Masonic Order, the Knights Templars is another. Prince Hall and 14 associates formed the first colored Masonic lodge in the U. S. in 1775. Their charter was secured in England, the source also of white Masonry. The Templars organized in 1833 in Chicago, under charter from Arabia. The white order had been introduced in the United States also from Arabia in 1872. Ritual and emblems are those originally employed by the Arabians and other Negro peoples as early as the year 656. Evidence of their existence both white and colored, priests of America have a common source. There is difference only in their ages. Colored Shriners also claim that since the colored order has operated for 35 years unmolested, whites have forfeited any right they may have had to object. Court, in a similar suit filed by white Pythians some years ago, declared that whites had delayed their action too long and their failure to object sooner gave colored Pythians the right to carry on. Will the present Supreme Court reverse this action? By so doing, it would give white Old Fellows and Woodmen an opening to wage of extinction of their members of these colored organizations of similar name. The Stirrine is one branch of the Masonic Order, the Knights Templars is another. Prince Hall and 14 associates formed the first colored Masonic lodge in the U. S. in 1795. Their charter was secured in England, the source also of white Masonry. Colored Shriners organized in 1893 in Chicago, under charter from Arabia. The white order had been instituted in the United States as early as 1872. Ritual and emblems are those originally employed by the Arabians and other Negro peoples as early as the year 656. The Supreme Court, in a similar suit filed by white Pythians some years ago, declared that whites had delayed their action too long and their failure to object sooner gave colored Pythians the right to carry on. Will the present Supreme Court reverse this action? By so doing, it would give white Old Fellows, Elks and Woodmen an opening to wage a war of civilization against of these colored organizations of similar name. Perhaps this is why the highest court of the land delays its decision. Certainly it would be a queer turn of events that would bar Negroes from the Shrine order founded originally by black people of Arabia who used as their symbol, the kinky-haired, broad-nosed, thick-lipped Sphinx.

To the Editor: stand by Mr. Tailley, of Washington, D.C., in agreement with Mr. Allen's plan of solving the race problem by a slow process of amalgamation. However, I think that Mr. Tailley is mistaken in his statement that Mr. Allen's only executed by his audacity to write such rot. We should be broad and tolerant with those who desire the adjustment of the race situation in this country by "a slow process of amalgamation." Every child has a biological right to struggle and fight for all the opportunities and privileges enjoyed by his father. Hence, I hold that it is the responsibility of the authority to adjudicate Mr. Allen and other light mutuates to advocate "solving the race problem by a slow process of amalgamation," but it is rather the urge of the fundamental principles of biology, which is the authority that disagree in their beliefs as to the best methods of "solving the race problem." ticle appeared, I was seated in the smoker seat.

However, I think that Mr. Talley is mistaken in his statement that Mr. Allen's "stupidity is only exceeded by his audacity to write such rot." he broad and tolerant with those who desire the adjustment of the race situation in this country "by a slow process of amalgamation." child has a biological right to struggle and fight for all the opportunities and privileges enjoyed by his father. Hence, I hold that it is not "stupidity" and "audacity" that prompted Mr. Allen and other light mutuates to advocate "solving the race problem by a short process of amalgamation," the urge of the fundamental principles of biology. Blacks and mulattoes should agree to disagree in their beliefs as to the best methods of "solving the race problem." JOHN E. HARRIS, Washington, DC The Man Without Work Might As Well Be Ignorant As Intelligent. The kind of education is of much value to society unless it can be used. The big thing in the life of a good citizen is a job, some work to do. If a man can get no work to do he may just as well be ignorant as intelligent, as for example, a man who is not an intelligent work is honorable, so long as it supplies some actual human need. Therefore, a man must value and make the best use of any work he can get to do, if he cannot get what he thinks his education and experience can give him. The Colored boy and girl must learn this lesson well. Many jobs that they used to find very easily are now very difficult or impossible to find. The restaurant waiting the railroad summer work at the day-and-day school, and the school of the school, may be done many other jobs of that kind are in many places going or gone to others.

As To Whom Cain Married. This Reader Has No Faith In The Bible Story. Mr. Francis Robinson, the book of Genesis gives us the story of creation. Taking the Bible at its face value, there were no people on earth at the time of the world. But we were in the garden, and created all things (including man, woman and the Garden of Eden) within six days. (Gen. 1:27, 29:31) Now, the story runs that mankind was the leading creation (Gen. 1:27, 31). Adam was placed in the garden alone (Gen. 2:3). God that it not good for man to be alone so he made—not out of the ground, or some cither foreign substance—a woman of one of Adam's ribs. (Gen. 2:21, 22, 23). “Bone of my bones, and flesh and my flesh,” says Adam. “You must admit that if Adam married Eve, “flesh of his flesh” (Gen. 2:23) (then he was guilty of incest. In the case of Adam, God is the mother of man, and the law, the laws of man. God ordained the practice of incest (Gen. 1:28), then cursed men who would execute His orders (Deut. 27:20, 22:23). Abraham married his sister (Gen. 20:12), and God blesses the mother of all living (Gen. 3:20), and Cain killed his brother Abel, thereby leaving three people on earth (Gen. 4:8). Bible students may rightly wonder what manner of wife Cain looked up with in the land of God. (Gen. 1:17) Well, at any rate. Cain and his wife had a boy whom they named Enoch. Then Enoch married (task some theologian where they called their son) Enoch, who was children. (Gen. 1:18) When Eve had another son whom she called Seth, but not until she had grandchildren (Gen. 4:25). The only logical conclusion to be reached is that the brothers married their sisters—a sort of "zane, ex-die" affair. The Man Without Work Might As Well Be Ignorant As Intelligent.

BLAIR, Eastern Shore Reader Says Maternity Hospital at Easton Plans No Rooms For Col- laboratory Staff, over the $10,000 for the To the Editor: To the People of Talbot, Queen Anne and Caroline Counties, another great injustice is about to be meted out to the colored people of this section. We are not the only group in the government hospital, known as a maternity ward. I have learned from first hand information that there will be no rooms available to colored patients who are pregnant, and they will be forced, regardless of how serious their case may be. This institution, while it is the most modern on the shore, has discriminated against our people to some extent. First, the colored people were informed by a comparison of the Hospital Board, twelve or thirteen years ago, if they would raise some money to help with the building, they would have co- lored wards, also private rooms. This committee was given over $10,000 from the colored people, with other material, such as sheets, pillows, cases, First, the colored people were informed by a committee of the Hospital Board, twelve or thirteen people, who were asked to help with the building, they would have colored wards, also private rooms.

First, the colored people were informed by a committee of the Hospital Board, twelve or thirteen years ago, if they would raise some money to help with it, the building would also have rooms. This committee was given over $10,000 from the colored people, with other material, such as sheets, pillows, spreads, etc. The building was completed with the colored people under the ground, with a cement floor and is cold in winter and hot in the summer. There are no private wards. A colored lady in 1927, applied for treatment in a case of pregnancy and was refused, and on that account, she has been an invalid ever since. She is now a nurse at the State of Maryland did appropriate funds for this institution, and that is some of everybody's money who only pays an automobile tax.

Children of a white school and of a colored school were abused and unfriendly contacts. The League got busy. Hours of dismission were changed and one of the principals routed his children in a different direction. 2. Rowdies in a certain Suburb snatched hats of Colored female teachers and trampled upon them. Men passing on their way to work were often molested. Colored children were intimidated on their way to school. The League called this to the attention of leading white citizens of that neighborhood and they communicated with the sheriff and the disorder was abated. 3. A Colored storekeeper had lived in a suburb forty years and conducted his business. He was ordered to move. His store was burned and he was ordered not to rebuild. Friction was acute. The League got in touch with certain cooperating agencies and, also, communicated with outstanding white citizens in the neighborhood. The disturbance ceased and the storekeeper is going 4. Complaint was made of rough treatment of Colored patients at General hospital. The League investigated the matter and filed information with Trustees who gave assurance that such com- 5. The League found no arrangement: were made for band concerts for Colored people. matter was called to the Park. Concert concerts for Concerts were provided. The League took up the matter of additional Parks and Playgrounds for Colored people. Assurance was given by the Funds from the Funds of a recent bond issue. A playground was provided in Orange Mound, on a plot of ground purchased for that purpose. There were playgrounds during the summer at Church Park, Porter School. 7. The League has been active in securing an increase in the salaries and petitions fled giving reasons for said increase. Some increase has been granted, but, the result will be pushed until it is secured. 8. It is felt that references to Colored people on trial in our courts as "this nigger" and "that nigger" are unfair and subversive of justice. The attitude of the Jury and the Court is likely be influenced by such expressions. The position was taken up with the Mennonite and Shelby County Bar Association in position was approved and the evidence was given that effort would be remedied to remedy the matter. 9. The Comfort Stations in Court Square not being open to Colored people. request was made of the Health Department that stations be vided for Colored people. The City authorities have promised that this embarrassing situation will be remedied. Mexico Far More Civilized Than Either Texas or Mexico To the Editor: Mexico is supposed to be uncivilized and Texas is supposed to be a part of the most civilized country "on earth." That is public opinion which proves that the old philosopher was right when the "Public opinion is the biggest趾 in the world." The way in which Mexico conducted itself toward Toral, who murdered President Obregon, is shown in the book *President Obama: Is Texas, or Mississippi, or Arkansas, in Texas*. Toral would have been lynched hilariously; in Mississippi he would have been murdered ceremonially; in Texas he would have legally six months after his crime, and there was never any doubt whatabout his crime. And her gang ever get control of Mexico there will be fifty lynchings and burnings each year below the Rio Grande. Legal executions are savage and Lynchings are unspeakably beastly. WM. PICKENS! In reply to the reader of the AFRO who desires to know whom Cain married, I desire to tell him that he was the volume entitled, "The Lost Books of the Bible." Cain "the hater," had a twin sister, Luluwa (the beautiful). Abel is also supposed to have had a twin sister. Both Cain and Abel : arried their twin sisters. At the death of Abel, his wife, Akila is supposed to have married Eve three times. Beth is New York City Sons of Great Men Harley Become Great. To the Editor: Sons of great men rarely become great.

GORDON, 1021 E. Lexington-st., Los Angeles, Calif. This Reader Has No Kind Word To Say For College Men And Women. To the Editor: My hops are fading in college youths because of their extreme selfish tendencies their valuation and their misconception of leadership. College youths are imitative, artificial and thoughtless individuals with artificial brains and with excellent minds. They refuse to use their minds when the line of thought deviates from the beaten path. Their highest ambition is to get away from the common people. They create class distinctions within College youths are imitative, artificial, and thoughtless individuals with pliant backbones. They are unable to use their minds when the line of thought deviates from the beaten path. Their highest ambition is to get away from the common people. They create class distinctions within the community. Fraternities are one of the devices by which a college youth may achieve this badge of filosy superiority. The moment this youth arrives in college he begins to search for a better between him and the less fortunate brother. The fraternity catches his eye, so with heart and soul he exerts supernatural energy to make one. He degrades his classmates from their civilization to make a Frat. brings about a permanent pollution of character. Our college youth is using college as a means of securing beds of discipline to will enable him to become a effective parasite. WYATT DUGHERLY, WYATT DUGHERLY Hope that Hoover will make good as President; but do not expect him to improve on Coolidge. During the presidential campaign of 1924, I wrote a release under the caption, "Coolidge and the Negro." What I then indicted was the failure of the campaign, assisted by experience Calvin Coolidge is the embodiment of the ideal American. He rarely rises above, and neverinks into the average. He has many friends but few admirers. The whole nation, without regard to section or party, wanted him to continue as president his lactic decision—"I do not choose to run." Congress respects the sincerity of his judgment and the genuineness of his decision. He will preside as president in our annals; and yet it refused approval of a larger proportion of his chief measures than it has withdrawn any administration. Now passes into private life with more friends and fewer enemies than any other American statesman. He will not rank in history as president of the United States, acceptable and generally approved of them all. Avoided Race Question President Coolidge has studiously and calculately avoided the race question and calculated the race question of the his Puritan heart beats true to the principle of right and wrong. He believes with a deep seated conviction in the fundamental purpose of the Constitution that his shrewd Yankee sagacity cautions silence where assertion yields no frustration. Renewal of a promissory note has been made, and he intends to pay. He neither affirms nor denies but leaves us to infer what his basic principles are. No Significant Appointment Mr. Coolidge has been president for five years and six months. During his tenure he was a single significant, original Negro appointment. He did renominate Cohen of Louisiana to his unconventional minister Liberia and the colored judge of the District of Columbia. Charles W. Anderson. Arthur Free and Berry Howard were permitted to assume in office by hold-over tenure. The official positions in the South were lost to the Negro before President Cooldle's day. The appointing Cohen by Harding Cohen were mere spectacular gestures. They kept open the door of hope although no other Negro aspirant was expected to enter. The Haitian ministership and the recordship of the Treasury have passed from Ephiam's political allotment. The Rooseveltian policy of appointing Negroes to the North has not been sustained. When the present colored collector of Internal Revenues of New York retires, his successor will in all probability be appointed to the North has established a dead line to the Negro's appointive hopes. Hoover Coming The life span of this release is one week. Before that limit shall be exceeded, the release will be upon us. We will then bid Mr. Coqlille adieu, and Mr. Hoover welcome. We cannot help but recall the help given by Negro politicians flocked to the capital in uncounted numbers, with reasonable expectation to be chosen in Washington in and in the foreign service. But now there are left only three or four comparatively minor places that they dare even to attend. The recordship of deeds, the ministership to Liberia and possibly an assistant attorney general, will be held in the black man's political ambition. This well known trend to desimination which has been going on for liberation has climaxed under Coqlille. Superh Follower President Coolidge does not pose as a leader of public opinion but as a register of public sentiment. The bulb of the thermometer is not future than is the current than is Mr. Coolidge's appraisement of public feeling. Herein lies his great popularity which cannot be shaken. He knows with uncanny ease that his public sentiment will allow him to go. The Negro finds fault with the President for allowing his political fortune to sink to such a low level under his leadership, with the wrong party. It is public opinion, rather than public officials, that must be changed. Mr. Coolidge is not a great leader but a supernatural follower. He is not a public opinion indirectly by following it. What Cal Has Done While Mr. Coolidge's administration has marked the downward trend of political favor towards the national personal interest and helpful spirit outside of politics, whenever occasion presented itself, he has over and over again voiced his good opinion of the nation's educational and general advancement. In several state papers he has gone on record against lynchings, torture, and gregarious constitutional rights, in principle. He has written several letters endorsing the work of the National Association for Advancement of People. No president has been more genuine and sincere in expressing kindly interest and good will towards the Constitution, and he has done little to promote his claims to equal rights under the Constitution and the laws. We must, however, acknowledge that he translated although not actually translated into action. Poor Inheritance Mr. Hoover now takes hold where Mr. Coolidge leaves off. He enters upon a very bad inheritance so far as we are concerned. He finds Negro students in a high school under the government. Public sentiment is at its lowest ebb. Congressman Tinkham of Massachusetts is about the only man in either house of Congress who genuinely believes in the right to vote where it is effective of the Negro's rights. Mr. Hoover is under no definite political debt which he is bound to pay under penalty of reprisal in the next nominating convention at the polling station up for election, and self-sacrifice. If every Negro who did vote in the last election had cast his vote for or against him, it would hardly have affected the margin of his majority. It would, of course, fixed that in the next national convention the Negro delegates, if there be any, will have no independent voice or vote. Hope, But Do Not Expect But despite all of this, let us hope, even if we do not protest, national will, out of sheer sense of high minded patriotism to restore, the Negro all of his lost political prestige. But let us, in all events, both hope and expect that the national programme which will supplement political favors conferred or offset those withheld.

No Jokes In The Douglass Speeches (Douglass Day address by Armond W. Scott, Washington, D. C.) Unlike some of the so-called leaders of today, never in all his public career did Douglass ever be a job the public righted to take on as a race to ridicule and scorn to the people of the opposite group. The question of the civil and political righted to take on a grave ever to be treated by him with levity, and he never attempted to influence or curry favor with any set of people, was the expense of those with whom he was identified. He was conscious of the fact that even in his time there were too many Negroes seeking favors for themselves and who were always ready and willing to furnish merriment to the other race. He was also the short comings of a struggling and handicapped race. Birthmarks How are birthmarks caused? Can they be removed? These are questions on the lips of these women and their mother. Many erroneously believe that a birthmark is due to something the mother ate or some other thing she did before the child was born. Expectant mothers, especially any kind will be certain to appear in the form of a birthmark. But expectant mothers need not be frightened: birthmarks and frighten are usually caused by birthmarks are usually caused by thickening of the blood vessels, or an increase in the number of blood vessels in one spot. They appear on the head and trunk, and frequently on the head and trunk. And they are always formed sometimes during pregnancy. After birth these spots enlarge and become permanent. This may be removed by an electric needle in the hands of an expert or Paint Ye Not (Rules of Cheyney Normal School) Wear nothing flashy or startling or extreme. Cosmetics require the most attention. Do not powder on your face that it is decidedly noticeable, you may be sure that you are not making a good impression. The obviously powdered and tainted lady is out of place at Cheyney. It is always the privilege of the lady to speak first when meeting a gentleman. The gentleman will strenuously avoid any kind of irritating or disagreeable conversation with any woman. It is more profitable, even if the woman is wrong, to ask the woman politely and all good humor, asked to be excused, and retire. Nobody Lynched (From the New Orleans States) A young married woman had told the police story "downtown," an attack vacant downtown, by a "bis Negro." Half the police force and a number of neighbors "with thoughts of lynching in their minds" when her father appeared, pooch-pooled the girl, and the girl quarrelled with her husband. The "Negro attack" flurry ended by the arrest of the woman's husband, chased by her with giving fighting. HELLO GIRLS IN N. Y. Conditions in industry among Negroes improved during January, although employment was unsteady because of inventory taking, according to a bulletin of the National Urban League's Department of Industrial Education which T. Arnold Hill is director. The reports upon which the league bases its findings represent conditions both in the South and in the North, but the most outstanding developments appear to have been made above the Massacre and Phinno Line and the losses are cited for a number of cities. From this it is seen that Negroes are gradually breaking into the textile and clothing industries and thus unskilled workers. Both St. Louis and Milwaukee have established precedents in this direction. Chicago reports numerous opportunities for experienced power machine operators and lamp-shade While there were losses in many places they were more or less temporary, justices will be made shortly. Below is a resume of gains and losses which indicate that advances have been made in types of employment offered to the colored workers and that added numbers are working in customary fields. Gains In New York a training school for new employees has the first time telephone girls, elevator operators, chamber maids and an assistant counselor. Leaner employees in the industry continues to employ colored for all-Negro talking pictures, and a large baking corporation is considering placing a chain of jobs in the city water department; a large number were employed in a new department store in Philadelphia; twenty women were placed as an athletic club in Pittsburgh. In St. Louis two girls were placed in a millinery establishment, a new company under a five-year contract to install and supervise its service and expects to use several waiters, and it is also expected to enter the textile and clothing industries. The Milwaukee Urban League has acquired a textile moulders, shippers, grinders, etc. for two companies, the lamp-shade company which placed signs designating the textile moulders, whites withdrew the signs and the two groups are now working harmoniously together; and a textile establishment employed seven women and three men and reports that they are doing well. More Store Clerks In Chicago a chain store placed additional clerks and the management reported approximately 200 Negrens employed in 100 of their 500 stores on the Southside; in Toledo a Negro was appointed chief electrician of a new department store and a large mobile company; in Columbus an extra worker was placed with the city charities. Losses Des Moins reports the loss of an accountant when the company changed hands: in St. Louis 300 men were concerned in concern until repairs and inventory had been made, one factory discharged 50, another 60 and the theatre replaced its Negro janitors with white ones. In Pittsburgh five colored matts were dismissed by a large department store; in Chicago the Standard Oil Company replaced two colored filling machines as a reason the falling off of patronage. Columbus reports a general shutdown at all kinds of work and accuses the man in charge away from Columbus because work is not available; in Omaha four leading downtown theatres discharged three Negro janitors along with a man cause "inefficiency." All were members of the Janitors' and Porters Union. Concensus of opinion is that it is organized on the part of the manager to break up this particular union. Week's Poem SONG OF THE MARCH WIND Oh, the March Wind whirled down the mountain side As merry as merry could be He whirled and whistled, he whistled and whirled. For a merry March Wind was he. He touched his cap to the willow. And the pussies came out, and for fear they'd freeze. Each a gay little, gray little warm coat wore. With a cap of the same pulled down before before— Such a merry March Wind was he! Oh, the March Wind danced thru the valley cold As merry as merry could be, He danced and he dashed, then he danced again. For a merry March wind was he. The sunshine came and they danced. Till the ice o'er the brook was all broken through. And the mad little, glad little stream, How it sparkled and dimpled and laughed in glee.— Such a merry March wind was he! Aunnoous Monkey Talk Strictly speaking, Charles Darwin never believed that the human race descended directly from monkeys or any other species of animal now in existence. He believed in the community of descent of the anthropoid apes and man, namely, he thought that the higher apes and man descended from a common ancestor. "But," wrote Darwin in The Descent of Man, "we must not fall into the error of supposing that the early progenitor of the whole Simian stock. We know that the apes may even closely resembled, any existing ape or monkey." According to his theory of evolution through natural selection, the diversification of the apes may have occurred hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of years ago. The apes 'branched off in one direction, while the human race went in Day by Day WM. N. JONCS The Next Step In The Drug Business An experienced pharmacist of twenty years experience told this writer this week that the Negro business was the most promising that the drug business of the is just swinging on to the commercial syrnetck, of chain development. Just a few years ago the Negro business was the most promising in the business world but it offered highly remunerative employment to a growing professional group. Even many small commercial stores which used modern drug store which typified the advance of Negro enterprise. It is evident that the business is facing deep seated changes and that to compete with the highly organized chain store, it will be necessary to either adopt a combination or develop a trade based wholly upon race consciousness. No doubt the best solution for the future is organization and pooling of interests. Business success requires a strong focus as well as good selling, and the quicker the drugsists learn to cooperate to this end the quicker will get on the road to saving a very important business for the group. What Is Going On In The South All of the political news shifting out of the South indicates that the Hoover administration is planning a 100 percent regime exercise in the Dixon and Dixon and a means of solidifying the gains made in the drive against the Solid South in the recent election. There can be no question that the plan to wipe out the nautilus system and the Krogero negro influence in southern states. While the intentions involved are undoubtedly not in the interest of the South, they may be good, if there is developed down there a real mass leadership. The old system worked well with and for a few Republican voters, and would receive some material benefit. There was nothing to stir the masses to force open the polls except in Democratic municipal elections in many communities where the old laws of disfranchisement have become inactive, and public sentiment would prohibit the use of the shot gun to keep race voters from participating in the activity among election times. With the making of a potent Republican party in the South there is all possibility not only that the situation will develop race leaders who will rally the masses to action and wipe out disfranchisement.® The are the lands of people who can overcome every franchise restriction and force a mass vote, and a breaking up of the old regime may hasten f' is objective. Hells Worse Than Brimstone And Fire "There are heals on earth worse than brimstone and fire," a Baltimore woman is said to have declared before she saturated a human coal oil and made a human tooth of herself with a critical intent. Medical science declares that suicide is always the result of temporary mental derangement, but medical science does not always explain why people derangement the derangement. Happily only a few people of the millions born like life hell enough to want > end it, but it is only necessary to take a glance about you to see that the sorrow about you far from tranquility and peace. How to live in this world, imperfect in many ways, see the sorrow about us, meet the viciousness of existence, scramble for comforts, battle deceptions and selfishness, is an objective worth studying. The man or woman who can lie down at night with a mind at peace with himself and the world, whose memories do not fade, and who can open in the face of disappointment can feel that he has *d.* one bit to make and keep the peace and happiness of the world, is the real fortunate human being, and the real hall or humble cottage; he may swear enpires or merely have connion over a simple heartstone, but the real happiness comes from a state of how easy it is for men and women to destroy the possibility of mental happiness. Like Shakespeare's, "Othello" some men and women make a hell of being an abnormal sense of jealousy. One of the most terrible states is that one growing out of constant suspicion. Like a poisonous adder it eats into the mental vitals much living moment is a burning torch. Abnormal appetites are also the basis for many mental hells. Not only the dope addict and the narcissist, but many lose the peace of happiness by developing abnormal attitudes towards the simple passions of love and hatred and most divorce cases shows that many wrecked homes come about because one or both of the parties have geared their desire for excitement so high that they cannot ever become satisfied with their own simple and ender life of the home. Then envy, the desire to "outdo the Joneses" trailing the income too closely makes a share of human humanity, and the wrinkles and wry lines. Perhaps, however, the most fatal of all mental states of hell. worse than brimstone and fire, it that growing out of memory. We must make his mind forget. We may mask our faces and keep the terrifying memories hidden, but like the burning coal of fire they get their deadly work and make their The murderer may escape the hangman's noose; the moral lance may never be known to the world; the selfish thrust in the dark may never get public condemnation like Banquo's shoest, these bells put in the memory to live and keep twenty-four hours in every day. As mental hygiene grows more practical and comes to be taught more in elementary school, we will understand that many of the elusive things called riches, nover, station, and success, bear only the weight of their happiness in the final analysis, but that the state of mind and the ability to adjust mental attitudes to the necessities of life are the real factors in human development.

EDGAR STANLEY "The Parent-Teachess" Association, of Douglass high school, presented the Morgan College chorus, augmented by members of the Morgan College Dramatic Club, in it of Negro Music "the Douglass High auditorium, Tuesday evening, to a scent but appreciative audience." Although greeted by this small audience, the players nevertheless gave a performance worthy of any professional group who work in fairly large audiences as to a large one. **Historical Seenes** Half nude, burdened and singing African tribesmen, thousand or more years old, weary, disillusioned and early American civilization; and later the New Negro, cultured and talented, constituted some of the high spots in this well staged and remarked performance, offering was written and directed by Mrs. Shirley McCanns, head of the music department at Morgan, and was staged by Rat dolphin Edmonia McCann of Morgan. The story was a dramatization of the development of Negro music from the first boat of the African-tom, to the most technical productions of the trained Negro musicist of today, and was done in five Players Real Beginning with the New Negro played by James Carr, who ridiculed the least expression of typically race music, saying that and that he upheld his race, until his realization of the fact that it was something to be proud of the audience was constantly being held spell-bound by the changing audience, but was always hopeful in this end.

The fact that the singers are hurting and stretched arms to a lighted, adged impressiveness and serenity to this particular spot in the offering. It is greatly to be deplored that the body fell down so miserably in hiding what little support they might have given in the way of just being present.

REGENT FILMS SHOW SEA AND MATRIMONY The high seas and the sea of matrimony will feature the attractions at the Regent Theatre next week, where "Submarine and By Contract" will be shown "Submarine," featuring Jack Holl, Dorothy Revier and Ralph Graves, will be shown Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. This show is the greatest of its kind to be filmed, is billed as a drama of surprises and new thrills. Hero deeds by a deep sea diver and by a submarine officer feature the drama with moves at a fast clip throughout. Marriage a la carte, is the theme of "Marriage By Contract," featuring Patty Ruth Miller and Lawrence Stern, with the focus on the remainder of the week. This pulsating drama of a very modern maid who married with reservations, makes some attempt to answer the questions with Wrong With Mod- The story concerns the successive marriages, on the so-called companionate or contract basis, of the American boy and girl. Their first disagreement breaks up their contract and the boy marries again immediately afterwards. The girl has some disagreement with the boy, and he is required to regard her companionate theories as condaining unconventionalities. After several years she marries a self-made man, and he is removed from the marriage, to be renewed or dissolved at the end of that time. This time she decides she would like to renew her marriage and have a real home and children, but the man, complaining that he will never pay, decides he prefers to end it. Her return to her parents' home is further embittered by the knowledge that their finances make her presence an embarrassment, and so she marries a man only to leave him at the entreaty of a gigolo. The gigolo's affection wanes when he learns he has spent all the money her last husband settled on her. There is a stirring climax which gives the picture an unusual end. STAGE REVIEWS ROYAL "Harlem Strollers" Take Andrew Fairchild, Happy Dounever, and DeWaymant Niles, constrictor out of Stoller, and Chura in formation, Stoller, would find in formation, pretty difficult. As entertainment "Harlem Strollers" leaves much to be said and done, acting in the piece would be just the thing for a white house-perfectly in place, if you get what we mean, but it certainly does not fit at the Royal. As we are indulging in the show that its performers have done in the past, we are forced to say that Mitchell as a comic, is far below par, and, as a result, is too hard to read. There is too much of the blackface attempt at comedy on the stage to make that brand of humor as effective as it might be. With visits of our cherished sisters still on the stage, it is hard to give the "Stroller" chorus an A-1 rating. Of average appearance they work spasmodically, lacking much of the finish that is necessary to give ruthlessness to the characters, getting some of their numbers above. You'll enjoy the brand of humor dished out by the people you'll like. Happy Doumeur's dance and Niles' wear contortions. That we can guarantee. You may like it, curiously with a joke appeal, maybe you won't. We didn't, and believe that Miss Smits is far below the average waiting public in the face. The words to her sings, suggestive to say the least, are her best selling points. She's a girl who says Webster, "Harlem Skollers" live up to their title, and how. W.I.G.

There were those who insisted at the time that the comedy of Mr. Hunt was too fast to be approved of but he fooled them and slowed up to such an extent when he arrived in England he was acclaimed as one of the best of his kind to ever attempt to find favor at the hands of the discriminating Englishman.

Even to those not bibitiously inclined the derivation is most useful. The first quarter of the nineteenth century saw introduced to the alcoholic market, a peculiar, cabin-shaped bottle containing a spiritous beverage manufactured by Booze & Co. well-known distillers. The taste of the liquid commodity grew in popular favor and before long patrons would say, "Give me more." The word is the name that a modern bar customer would say "Give me a Coke." meaning a certain soft drink. The name became a generic term for all hard liquors and it is now a dictionary word. In connection with his same "Booze," his bottles are now prized to glass col He was chagrined when it was explained that it was the original in the possession of director Harry Pollard whose main hobby when not at the micophone for "Uncle Tom's Mine" and the gritty collection is a noted one. Pollard himself, being the author of a monograph on the subject, "Uncle Tom's Cabin" comes to the Regent Theatre early in April.

She pleads to be taken to the theatre, where she will once in his life, is really in love with his wife, whom he married before going away to war, where he was reported killed in action.

I say "apprehension" because a person once or constantly slipped involuntarily dodges the motion of that hand, and is slow in believing the gesture one of friendliness. Heretofore the only part played by a Negro, as such, in a motion picture has been that of a joker, comedian, servant, fool, the inference being that he is peculiarly fitted by nature for such mediocre roles. This attitude toward the Negro is naturally resented by the intelligent and those who recognize the histrionic gifts of the black man; so there is widespread dogging on the part of the public at this move in the cinema world. Concerning "Hallelujah," the forthcoming Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer special no fears need be entertained and the public may relax with a sigh of relief. There is no pro aganda, no insinuation in "Halleluja.jah." It is simply the story of a plain, simple country boy who strays away from the sweet songs of his village, tragedy, penitence, conversion to the calling of his father, peace for a short time, then temptation again in the form of a woman and he is lost again for a while . . . never though, he is still suffering, followed him thru suffering and sacrifice until he turns again into the little lane leading back to the old home and those most dear. That is the framework upon which "Halleluja.jah" is built. There are still scenes of fun as poignant as the thrilling dramatic moments.

The mere mention of the names of those featured in the picture should be ample assurance; moreover, to introduce talking picture would be a most unwise and even foolish step on the part of any producer, and one not even contemplated b: any company making a finished picture in the picture would be Negro pictures. The movement of the Negro on the theatrical stage is viewed with impatience; too much can not be expected at once. How much farther we can go with a picture we age. We have the art amore a few and it is spreading daily to greater numbers. The material with which that art has to work is the thing giving us so much concern, but it is growling with excitement, and we will soon break its narrow confines. Just you race writers get to work and let's have something original and vital, something that burns with the fire of inspiration; + it remember the people who will give you the knowledge of your people, the theatre and the times.

HAZEL HARRISON IN COLLEGE RECITAL BY ERNESTINE V. BURTON GREENSBORO, N. W. A. Rhode Island, played heard in a reac- tionary February 22, at Bennett College for Women. The audience packed the auditorium and standing room was a pri- vious special seats were reserved for whites. Miss Harrison is an artist of rare brilliance, with a style of playing based on the music she secured from Busson, the great master and one of Liszt's most famous pupils. Her unusual technic, vitality of tone, true inter- pretative powers have developed with She opened her program with the difficult Bach's Chacme. This number was originally written for the instrument, and frequently played by Kreisler for his friend, Busoni, who later arranged the number for the piano. The first movement of Schumann was arranged with her breath-alergy and one marveled at the ease with which she marveled the intricate movements. Andantino, unusually appealing and Miss Harrison's poetic interpretation exhibited 'er artiste' musicalism with the humorous Scherlonek Rondo followed. Brahm's Intermezzo was pensive in mood, retrospective and could have been called the "quietest." The Rhaisopde by Brahm's was its fascinating work, played great abandon. Miss Harrison has seemed to have attempted the impossible in her program this year—a sliff in brilliant German grammar, and this was her last group—the Listae-Busoni edges after Paquin, a group which in itself is an evening's entertainment. The vitality the exquisite and enthusiastic account of Miss Harrison accounts for her phenomenal success as a concert pianist. The audience was unusually responsive, and its apprehension was shown in the presentation of the basket of the week and sweet peas. The week-end was full of teas, parties, and week-end guests.

Dances formerly sponsored by these clubs individually were generally "flops" as they were not conducted correctly and the artists are true this will not happen again. The individual clubs that joined the Federation will retain their identity in every respect. The fact that is of general interest to dance hall givers is the easiest of the 13 others when they sponsor a dance in their name. The second fact is that Mrs. Louise Saunders-Reid, who has shown exceptional ability in promoting affairs that have been successful, will hold the nationalization. The only worthy rival of the Junior Federation is the Dance Fan Club which also has Mrs. Reid at its head. Should these two huge organizations combine they would monopoly on dance. The rapists of both units will cause them to give dances that will have new features and novelties. New Features Speaking of new features, the Bals Des Arts introduced something new in costume bails when they pulled a circus stunt skirt and a hula-utah headed skirts. This was "hstuff" according to the version of a majority of the male attendance. The dance was respectable, sedate and clean, that is sibling the dance to be the Dance Fan Club, MORE POWER.

Spaking from the subject, "College Efficiency" the Rev. James said, "grown possesses collective efficiency when that group has the capacity for concentrating all of its potential and necessary strength behind its joint tasks; and the habit of doing this. Many elements enter into this question of capacity for efficient collective action. In the first place, there must be the capability of discerning the nature of a task, and readiness to respond to it, to perform joint duties. In the second place, you must possess the quality to move together." In his concluding statement, the Rev. James said: "Before we can take our place in the world as a race, we must develop a collective arm." Rev. Somervill, field agent of Lott Carey University, was the main spokesperson and stressed the importance of having the race a factor in economic progress of the world.

Mrs. Banks has been married to her husband for fifteen years and according to her plea has lived happily with him until the last few years when he showed symptoms of gadding about. A Church Member Mrs. Banks claims in her bill that her husband is a staunch member of Macedonia Baptist Church but for some reason, of late, the spiritual advice and counsel widely expounded from the pulpit there has had little if any effect upon his erring soul. Instead of being inspired by the gospel and counsel Banks claims his inspiration on the outside from various low and abandoned women.

He lived in Worton last year, he said, but found it necessary to move to Baltimore to secure medical attention for his wife. Physicians are six miles away from Worton, he said. Many times, Rev. Mr. Baker declared, Sunday collections were insufficient to pay his car-fare from Baltimore to Worton and return.

The pastor said he is a worker in optical glass by trade, but could secure no work in Worton. Rev. Mr. Baker said his congregation consisted of some 50 members, and due to bad roads one service only was held Sundays. He had missed only two Sundays this year, he said, the work being cared for in his absence by four local preachers, members of his concentration.

The fact that Lincoln had emerged victorious in the New York game intensified the interest in the Orange conflict. This accounted for the largest attendance that has greeted him in its games with Lincoln and Morgan, playing under the auspices of the North Jersey Howard Alumni Cootes, Hall, and Simpson, in the first half, accounted for twelve points for Howard while Lincoln, albedo by Weatherless and Whittington, close behind with a disadvantage of only a two-point margin at half DeCosta was injected into the game for Lincoln.

SEMINARY SAYS MORGAN BACKED OUT A new angle was given to the failure of Morgan College and Virginia Seminary basketball teams to meet February 22, this week in a communication received by this department from James E. Johnson, publicity agent of the Va. Seminary Athletic Association. Mr. Johnson's letter, which is self-explanatory, 'flows: "This is to inform you the reason that Seminary did not meet Morgan College on February 22. "The officials of this institute were directed by Morgan to arrange a game in that city. An attempt was made to get the city auditorium for the special event it was held at the hall was being used for a city enterprise." "Morgan was immediately notified and this school suggested that: Morgan make arrangements for the game, the team was in the vicinity at the time. We have yet to hear from Morgan. The only reason the Seminary gym was offered was due to the fact that no other place is available to play the game in this district. Seminary Gym. "The Seminary gym, as far as width and length is concerned, is of regular size. Its only defect is that it is too small. Morgan game in the gym, the players approved of the place and said they had played in worse places than the one in question. It was only after Seminary had beaten Morgan that they up from Morgan about our gym. "When Seminary was beaten by Morgan in Baltimore no kick was made and the team was not as hard last year was not as large as the Seminary gym. "If you are under the impression that the Seminary five delight in playing our game, the players don't like it, because they can't do their best here. If you have followed the activities of the team, you will agree with me that the Seminary five do better on the road than in Lynchburg. "Finally, Seminary is not afraid to meet Moody. "We're not afraid of the Seminary is out for the national championship and if Morgan wants to fight it out, let her say so."

Wednesday afternoon, when they evened the count with the Washington High School, of Washington, by nosing out the Techites, 28 to 25, in the most exciting game played in the Douglas gym this season. First blood was drawn by the local tossers when Landy Thomas counted a deuce spot in the opening moments, sounding a signal for the team's first play, which exhibited in interscholastic circles here this year. By halftime the advantage had see-saved until it had shifted to 15-12 in favor of the Washington cages. "Ducks" Stage Rally Started the second half with a rush, the "Ducks" closed up the gap, when McPherson snared a clean loop shot after a short pass from Noel. A goal sent the team back strong to her old advantage, but two rapid "fire" shots by Murdock and McPherson, of Douglass, put the locals in the lead by one point. Two points from Noel, for Douglass by Knox, gave the visitors the best of a 21-to-20 score at the end of the third period. Douglass In Lead A goal by Noel again placed the "Durks" ahead only to have two goals by Lee and Tate shift a two-point margin back to Armstrong.

WH A SLIGHT FEAR SELIZES ME when I think of what might or might not happen to the American Baseball League, and of course you know that when we make that reference we are not speaking of the major lead This department is sincere in its belief that the group of who have banded themselves together is not necessarily the most likely to be involved in the formation of race baseball. We do not overlook, of course, the very obvious fact that each man is in the business to make as much money as his corporation as he possibly can, and that he is for his health. can. Yes. With all their good intentions this column is thoroughly convinced that unless sufficient coin of the realm is laid down as a guarantee of good faith, no high sounding phrases are possible and brotherly love are going to be ignored. A slip should occur, that at least $500 be deposited in the league treasury as a pledge that the faith will be kept. We further understand that to placate grieved parties it was decided to reduce the amount of $200 and the provision would even be made that the reduced payment made in installments. to have told you that any club or club owner unable to procure a half-thousand dollars as a guarantee BEFORE THE SEASON BEGINS should have nothing to do with the American League. We feel that club owners who can afford to deposit the sum are jeopardizing themselves too much when they allow "cheap tactics" in order therefore that the eastern baseball men should consider before they allow any such action realism. Friendship is a wonderful thing that can mean ever so much, but there are times when a cold calculating business countenance will be of much more service. THE THREAT OF ISAAC NUTTER TO BRING AN INJUNCTION against the American League to prevent players formerly in the defunct body from playing in the new organization got the merry ha-ha. It appears that some bills are due the shore attorney and that his principal object in wishing to bring an injunction is to force a settle- Mr. Nutter stated that he would attach the proceeds of any baseball game played by him and use the money for the settlement. He also stated the old league. That he will carry out his purpose is not feared by the wiseaces for they point to the fact that the players against him would bring the injunction; the players obtained the injunction; the player Mr. Nutter would find it rather hard to dispose of the players he would automatically have on his hands. New Jersey fans, no doubt, will watch the barrister's moves when the ump throws out the first ball of the season. THIS CHAMPIONSHIP BALLYLHOO in basketball circles, pro, we mean, from where we sit, to a be a lot of sauce made from apples. meat, seems from the Renaissance-Savoy tiff, alreded the columns of that in which the western and eastern sectors are claiming that each has a better team. As we were reading the briefs presented by both sides, word came from the Beantown salient which told of the defeat of the Rons by the Philly Giants, formerly the Quaker Philly Giants. Clyde And now we have the eternal triangle. Which team is the champion? Bet you can't guess our answer. FOOTBALLICALLY SPEAKING, it appears that the coaches have come into their own with the announcement that in 1929 a "fumbled ball recovered by the defensive side is dead at the point of recovery." The national football rules committee's edits fall harshly on the ears of many fans scattered throughout the country for a pointed out several columns ago, the team seeing a player scoop up a fumble and then down a clear field for a 'touchdown' will not forever. If the fans can't see the thrills of a grid game will pay their good money to see a gallant display of chivalry. It seems that each year the game is becoming more and more feminate and perhaps within a few years we will see women (?) on the field of play in scented ruffled panties, tossing rose petals. Of course, it isn't quite that bad, but then will can tell what may happen. In announcing the change in the fumble rule the committee stated that it took into consideration "the fact that in the great majority of cases the actual fumble of the ball is the error of a single player and not the fault of the team as a whole; also the fact that loss of the ball by reason of a fumble is generally considered to be the loss of the ball of the team, distance lost by the fumulty, the average distance of a punt—say 35 yards, the opportunity for which has been lost by reason of the fumble." This rule will not apply in case of forward passes nor to backward passes which are intercepted before striking the ground, nor will applied to blocked kicks which will be played by the team. Other rule changes were made, in the rules that all booted balls, i.e. kickoffs, and third rule change, which, by the way, came as a distinct surprise to most outsiders, changes the position from which a try for point after touchdown is to be made, from the three to the two-yard line. This was done in the hope that the try for the extra point may more often constitute a triple threat play, instead of the conventional kick. Impressed that the 1928 restrictions on the use of the "screened" forward pass were not sufficient, the committee amplified the rule to read that no player of a side attempting a forward pass "who has crossed the line of scrimmage shall either before or after the pass has been made interfere with an opponent until the ball has been touched except in an actual attempt to catch the ball. Except in the unilogical behind the line of scrimmage, such player as unilogical shall be penalized if they in any way obstruct the right of the active players. "In case of doubt as to such interference," the rule adds parametrically, the penalty shall be imposed. The rule also requires that great amount of protest from either coaches, players, or officials. The main squawk will be registered against the "fumble rule," but the big boys have so ordered and none can say A suggestion that points be scored for first downs made, was laughed out of the assemblage while the proposal to move the goal posts back ten yards to their old position was passed up. The proposal that the kickoff be eliminated at the beginning of the second half, did not come up at all. The rules boys have done their stuff and departed. It remains for them to go and get ben to the new done. the 165th ELEMENT WITH MY DIAGNOSIS of local boxing was given last week when Jack Farrell, up-and-at-em boxing promoter of Chester, Pa., stopped at this desk to chat a minute. Jack, who, by the way, was on his way to Miami and other points south where he is in the Godfrey party now touring that region, says that the reason the static pastime has taken such a strong enough new blood is because of the need. There are enough boxing will not come, out to see mediocre attractions, he adds. Staging bouts in Chester, Richmond, and Roanoke, Va., and traveling over the country practically all of the year, Parrell's contacts are many and being a thinker as well as a doer he has made observations that are worthy of consideration. Some of them that it was Parrell's instrumental in bringing mixed bouts to the city of City and it wouldn't surprise us in the least if he has something up his sleeve now. Earlyly local promoters must have heard him for they are bringing here this week Calvin Reid. New York fighter, and if things go well they plan to bring some larger shots to town. Towns must smaller than Baltimore have excellent boxing skills and are properly arranged and managed. Many fans here would like to see good being done and do not feel anxious to go down town to be jimmy's right. Another dose of advice from Mr. Farrell and some more changes might be effected here. Baltimore is one place in which consistent advertising of the proper kind is imperative if anything is to survive. Our analysis of the situation was right after all. SIR RANDOLPH TAYLOR, more familiarly known as "Randy," and known better still as Coach Taylor of the Johnson G. Smith College "Bulls," has opened a new era in North Carolina athletics. In baseball, Smith has been known for some time, turning out quite a group of the diamond pastimes. But it has been in basketball and gridiron season the Smith "Bulls" attracted a bit of attention and several sports writers gave one of their players mention on the All-American football eleven. In a few days the Smith basketers will leave on a northern trip, a new thing for the Charlotte cagers. Coach Taylor, a graduate of Tufts where he was a three-legged man, was asked to play in the All-American game in All-New England intercollegiate sprint athlete in 1927 and that same year was voted the best all-around athlete at Tufts. Under Coach Taylor's guidance athletics at Smith have taken on a different outlook and it seems that the Carolina school is headed on toward a progressive athletic program. Thanks to "Randy" Taylor, Smith can hope for even greater things in athletic realms. WASHINGTON, D.

BEARS HALT LINGOLN MOREHOUSE. UNION IN PHILADELPHIA BOW TO SEASIDERS Baltimore Collegians Win, 27 To 22, In Thrilling Court Struggle WHEATLEY SPARKLES By BILL GIBSON PHILADELPHIA -- Piling up a substantial lead in the first half, the Morgan College Bears, claimants of the national collegiate basketball title, demonstrated their reason for the claim, by trouncing the Lincoln University Lions by a 27 to 22 score at the Palace Royal, here Saturday night. Three thousand fans packed every available inch of space in the hall and when time for the starting line drew near, the boys began in wild cheering. Morgan started off with a rush and before many minutes had elapsed had piled up a big lead. At half time the team held the advantage a 20 to 7 score. But the fighting Lions came back in the second half determined to do or die, and how they did so may be gleaned from the fact that Lincoln scored 15 points in this half against only seven for the other team, however, was too great a handicap to overcome and the Lions were forced to lower their colors in defeat, though the final bid for victory, Wheatley Stars "Rapp" Wheatley proved an outstanding star by scoring 11 points, tallying four field goals and three touchdowns, and played all that any coach might ask, the big fellow frequently breaking up what seemed to be sure scoring chances for Lincoln, in the first half. Jones delighted the fans, although the elongated Bear leader accounted for only two double-deckers. His handling of the ball stamped out the outstanding play in the game. For Lincoln the play of Hawkins and Weatherless was best, the former accounting for six of the Lions points, the prosecution for the A.C. defeated the Krimpets A.C. 21 to 19.

The game was really won on fouls, for neither team had a chance to crash through the other's defense, only six field goals being scored all night. The Councils totalled four the Coms made 14... The Councils also scored nine fouls to the Coms five. At half time the score was knotted at 7-7. Wilson and Tucker starred for the Councils while Burnett, 6, Gorras played best for the Crms.

AMERICAN LOOP PICKS APRIL 27 AS OPENING DAY Eastern Baseball Moguls, Meeting In Philly, In Optimistic Mood POSEY'S ABSENCE BAR TO SCHEDULE MAKING League Adopts Rule To Curb Late Reporting Of Star Players By BILL GIBSON (AIR SPORTS EDUC.) PHILADELPHIA.—Had it not been for the absence of Cum Posey of the Homestead Grays, owners of clubs in the newly formed American Baseball League, meeting here Saturday, would in all probability have completed all preliminaries to the opening of the league season. An injury in a basketball game prevented the Smoky Clay mogul being present, but a telephone call received from him just before the meeting assured the other league members that the Grays would be right in when the season began. Posey's absence made it possible to dr.w up a schedule and in order to do this a meeting has been called for 1:30 Friday, March 1. With President Obama, the college men, representing the college transacted all pre-season business with the exception of drawing up the league schedule. A decision was made to have the league officially open not later than the season, and were presided over by Ben Taylor and Isaac Washington. Atlantic City City Bacharachs; John Henry Lloyd and James Keenan; Lincoln Giants; George Rossler, Baltimore Black Sox; and Edward Hillale, Hildale, and David Cuban. Cuban Stars. Split Schedule—Rotate "Umpus." It was further agreed that the league play a split schedule, with not less than 40 league games in each half. Members of the team were decided to work out a definite system of rotating umpires. Names of several umpires and associations of umpires were submitted and from the number selections will be made next meeting. Reports reaching the owners that several ball players were going to Honiola and would not be involved in a stintion resolution being passed. Hereafter, any player failing to report to his club in time for the opening game will be suspended in the report. This rule is mandatory and will be enforced by the league. Lloyd May Quit Playing Manager John Heineman of the Cuban Stars will cause playing as a regular, Seals will be moved over to second base and "Young Billy" Yancey to court as shortstop, the last baseman for the Cuban Stars, has been released and will play this season in the Pacific Coast League. Bejarnao, member of the Cuban Stars, has been temporarily dropped by that club before the close of the past season, finished out the season with the Lincoln Giants, the property of the club and will not play that club this year, it was decided. A general air of optimism pervaded the session, consensus of opinion being that the 1929 season was over, and years. A communication from Norfolk, Va. seeking to place a team from that city in the league was tabled. The case of the Washington Black Sea was also tabled indefinitely and it appears that Simon Sheffield will not be able to have his entry accepted. Hear Nutter Threat The communication from President Isaac Nutter of the now defunct Eastern League, stating that he would contain inunctions preventing players of the old body playing games in the group, would forth discuss the little credence is being given to the Jersey barrister's threat.

REID AGAIN THE MASTER OF WILLS Presenting one of the cleanest styles of boxing seen in this section in quite a white, Calvin Reid, 14, New York, crosses to the head and face of Young Harry Wills, 134-1-2, demonstrated his superiority over the Baltimore battler to score his see victory in as in the game there. Tuesday night at the New Albert. Reid, a cool and calculating fighter, with plenty of reach and a stick of dynamite in each glove, was assassinated. He had no trouble in earning the judges decision after ten rounds. He took six rounds decisively, two were even and two went to Wills by a very scant margin. Centuries later, he took upper body, Reid after a period of watchful waiting, out with a volley of head smashes that had the claret coming from his opponent's mouth at the close of the first round, and delivered some telling body punches, trying hard for a break 'in the in-fighting. Reid rushed him in the new round and only by a brilliant rally in the chin, did the Baltimore boy himself. Wills-Tries Hard In the fifth Wills attempted a desperate comeback, but his blows did not seem to worry the New Yorker, who was fighting as coolly as he was at the opening gong. The sting was a slugfest. The player was nice to touch, 'being exhibited. The seventh found the blood streaming from Wills' nose and in the eighth Baltimore boy was holding. The fighters slugged again in front of Reid having an advantage. The fighters with Wills vainly struggling to retrieve his lost honors. Preliminaries In the preliminaries Kid Fields won in four from James Johnson, Young Peter and easily disposed of Wong, while Jackie Sorrell, 110, scored a technical kayo over Art Carew, 112. The comedy attraction of the evening came in the semi-wind when Haves Scout James Ware, 112, landed on a minutes of fighting. Wills' inexperience made him an easy target for the stinging blows of his experienced opponent.

THOMPSON WINS BOUT FROM "HAM" JENKINS THOMPSON WINS BOUT FROM "HAM" JENKINS BY CHARLES O'NEAL (For The Associated Negro Press) CONVENTION HALL, KANSAS CITY, Mo. Feb — "Young" Jack Thoupson, clever gloveman from the windy regions of Chicago, convinced fight fans here Monday night that he is the "big shot" of the welterweight division. And while he was selling himself to the crowd as a potential king of the welter ear-maulers, he was dispelling the idea, previously hurking that he is a second original Joe Gans, and destined to wear a fight crown on his sleeken brow. In Jenkins' defeat there was no disgrace. Realizing that he had evi- dence, he went to the box and he waded in at the opening stanza and exchanged blow for blow until the last bell sounded. Thompson floored Jenkins with a one-two at the box and staggered him with a left to the face when he rose from the floor. "Ham" took the aggressive in the second round and battled Jack all over the ring, winning by a good margin. The third round was even. Thompson winning the fourth, beating Jenkins in face and body. Again in session, Jenkins forged to the front, his best work being in the climbs.

Palms were very prominently displayed along the sidewalk, and American dags placed below each group of palms also helped to lend color to the scheme of the well-balanced decoration. "This true the hall presented a wonderful appearance, but since the truth must be told about the whole thing, the real reason for the beauteous spectacle was the fact there were so many beautiful ladies in attendance.

Evidently no matter what happens in this world, it is impossible for every one to be pleased at the same time. Take last week as an example. One half of the community was going around striving and yearning for the return of hot old summer time, while the other half was refusing at the sight of the recent snowfall, which enabled them to haul from their closets, sleds for their kiddies and a happy dream of themselves clamoring and wishing for the cold weather to continue for skating and other sports on the rivers and ponds and in the parks. Next, today is bestwixt just disagreeable, rather cold nor warmest, and disentangled, ehlly and airy. It is here only in the comforts of the fireplace, listening in the radio or gossiping around the tobaccos and at card parties.

Well, it came off that afternoon at the home of Annahia and it was served fresh and the tables being beautifully spread with Are You Ready When your Children Cry for It Baby has little upsets at times. All your care cannot prevent them. But you can be prepared. Then you can do—that is, the doctor would do—that is, the physicians would tell you to do—give a few drops of plain Castorine. No sooner done than Baby is soothed; relief is just what you need. You have caused your child without use of a single doubtful drug: Castorine is vegetable. So it's safe to use as often as an infant has any little pain you can cause. You can cause the crueler pain of colic or constipation, or diarrhea; effective, too for older children.

WHO'S WHO IN THE STATE OF MARYLAND [Name] Principal, Princess Anne Academy In enumerating Who's Who of race men in the state of Maryland, Thomas Henry Kiah, A.M., Ped.K, occupies a place of pre-eminence. Born in Dearborn, Michigan (near Cincinnati, Maryland, Dr Kiah was educated in the public schools of that county, after which he attended Princess Anne Academy and graduated in 1900. In the fall of the same year, he attended the college preparatory and college courses in 1906, with the degree of A.B. In 1913 Morgan College conferred upon him the degree of A.M. and three years later, 1916, in recognition of his masterful service, this same institution conferred upon him the degree of Ped.K, followed closely by Wiley University with the degree of A.B. He has done special work in both Cornell and Columbia Universities. Being an orator, he began the Episcopal Church, Dr. Kiah served the pastor; from 1900 to 1910, He has been lected four successive times by his Conference as a delegate to the General Conference of the Episcopal Church, General Conference of 1820 he was elected to membership on the Book Committee of the M.E. Church, on which committee he served eight years. He was then elected several times by Governors of Maryland as a delegate to Educational Congress both in and out of the state. He was appointed by Governor Harrington as a member of the Council, which he served two years as President of the State Teachers' Association. He is a Dr. Miller's Famous Plate $10 Guaranteed fully for Service, Fit and Appearance. Does Not Drop or Slip Teeth Examined Free. All Work Guarantee.

Lexington St. 33rd degree Mason and Deputy Grand Master of the State of Maryland and also a member of the Scottish Rite Council of Free and Accepted Masons. In 1910 Dr. Kiah was appointed Principal of Princess Anne Academy. Under his skillful guidance, this institution has grown from a valuation of a few thousand dollars, to one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Modernly equipped, nitary buildings, pure bride registered stock, modern farm equipment and the drained buildings, cumbersome equipment and muddy fields that greeted him at the beginning of his administration. These scientific improvements have made the most increase in enrollment, as well as a ten-fold increase of crop production. In addition to the literary phases, he has been placed on a high plane, and the modernly equipped poultry farm with its: selected strains of Rhode Island Reds and White Leachons commands many visitors who drive through the campus. About five years ago, the work of high school grade to that of junior college was a development the literary as well as the industrial phase. It would be an injustice to Dr Kiah to have you think his entire interest in the arts was his quiet, and unassuming manner, he has devved in the town and community of Princess Anne a most wholesome and friendly relation, which cannot be ignored and respected by all who know him. His infuctor, for good is felt whenever he appears, Churchmen, statesmen, and business men seek his count in the interest of the community, double the worthy of any position of trust that might come to him.

PASTORS READY FOR CONFERENCE PASTORS SPLIT CHURCHES To have a good mentality, administrative ability, '2 clean and neat, pay your debts, have spiritual qualifications, a good manner of approach and a knowledge of nature, is the best way to get good appointments, according to the advice of the Rev. W. S. Jackson in his address at the M. E. ministers meeting at Sharp Street Church, Wednesday. Speaking on the condition of the church, the Rev. Jackson said, "the good appointments, if there are any, made from the men who serve best." "Paul may plant and apostles may water but God gives the increase. The increase may be a permanent apperence but increase and success of any church must come through the slar." Square De I Referring to a conference, the Rev. Jackson said: "There are the ministers who come to the conference looking for a 'square deal.' This term I do not presume to define or explain unless I mention the moment of a pastor to a church of one's own choosing, and on the other hand the allowing of a pastor to remain at his present charge under protest authority, wagging a continual resistance. "Such procedure he caused our churches to lose many good members who have not 'one over to other churches singly and in groups, but established other denominations." Back to Normalc The Rev. Jackson touched upon the outlook of the Annual Conference and the Lay Electoral Conference of March 20, 1982, and of March 20. A check upon the affairs of the church he said, indicates that all is well. "The church property," he said. "is in better condition, ever before and there is more of it." TO DEDICATE $3,000 ST.

Hear Sermon The anniversary sermon was delivered by Rev. Volley Stokes, pastor of Shilloh Baptist Church, Norfolk, Virginia. "A soldier," he said, "must not be too short, tall or fat, and the same conditions will also apply where shortness of belief, high-mindedness and too fat with the world's pleasure in the army of God will cause to be conspicuous targets for the enemy in all respects. "The three things that a man cannot be to enlist in the National Army are similar to the army of God. A tall man or a fat one makes him a target for the enemy while a short man is handicapped for the long hikes that are known by military men. But each one is become by the prescription of God. One does not have to undergo an examination and red tape that is part of the requirements for fraternal orders and association. The first step in the army is to give up for a place in God's army is to give Him his heart." Following the services, the First Separate quartet rendered to Kneel at the Cross," "Goin' To Join That Band," and "Oin My Lord, I Am an Orphan." Other musical numbers included those presented by the Prior to the conclusion exercises, a silent prayer was offered by the congregation to the memory of the late Major William J. B.

Marshall, Dr. Brown, as successor, the mayor of the city, and as the mayor's appointments on three of the standing committees, namely, the appropriation and finance, the police and fire, and the mayor. The mayor explained that it was customary to let a member appointed to fill a position in the mayor's his predecessor. This was the procedure to avoid unnecessary confusion and delay in council business. Brown is a native of Kentucky and is 39 years old. He has held the pastorates of many large churches and the Congregational commission and is active in civic life as well as religious activities.

There are 15,000 Negroes in the United States, and excluding those who eat at the places of their residence, conservatively estimated that they spend annually for $800,000,000.

Information on which we have on file in our office, we estimate that, of the Negro grocery stores established, between seven and ten thousand are sufficiently well organized and conducted to qualify for the cooperative enterprise which we have outlined. Leaders d. Earning a living is a very serious and ever-present problem among Negroes, and there was never a time when our school enrollees were giving more attention to this important subject. Our leaders are telling the masses of colored people that Negro business must be supported that positions which in the 400 Dr. Paul T. Cherington, director of research for the J. Walter Thompson Advertising Agency, addressed our league at its annual session last August, and on the occasion if related to Negro business, told us that Negro retail business could survive only by organizing into chains or by adopting cooperative buying in order to meet chain store prices. It is to meet this situation that we are collecting your cooperation and support. Neighborhoods Leaders Chain Stores Only EXPANSION IS THE SIGN OF PROGRESS The growth and development of the Jersey Ice Cream Company is very gratifying to those who have watched it grow from a very, very small organization to a point where it is now, one of the leaders in its field. Mr. M. Jacob Abrams, the president of the Jersey Ice Cream Company, announces that his organization has achieved the improvement of their plant and that these improvements will cost approximately $100,000. This fact indicates the extent of the growth of this organization and its future prospects of interest to the Baltimore public. Additional modern manufacturing equipment—the finest known to the science of ice cream making, includes a new and unique conveyor system, will be housed in the new addition. At the present time the employees are being examined in an outside medical department of the Health Department, but the improvements that are being made, the Jersey Ice Cream Company plans to build a medical examination room for the medical superintendent, and to hire employees, which will be under the direction of a doctor who will examine each employee every two weeks. This vigilance is intended to overcome as far as it is humanly possible, and to keep the first place, and in the second place to keep out of the factory any man or woman who is not in 100% physical condition. The oil burner has also been arraigned for. This will eliminate coal dust and fumes. It is interesting to note that the Jersey Ice Cream plant is the first one in Baltimore to adopt this type of handling. The ground has already been broken for the new plant which will be open to the public about May 15th. It is well to remember that the Jersey Ice Cream Company has already been working in Baltimore labor and is in every sense of the word a Baltimore institution. DEATHS MRS. ELIZA G.

James, pioneer wholesale produce and fruit merchant, died here Friday after a year's illness. Mr. James was born in Galla County, Ohio, February 18, 1862, the son of the Rev. Francis C. and Mrs. Eliza James. His father, after his discharge from the Union Army, be- came the first American to attend the public schools of this section, but Young James remained for 18 years in Ohio with his grandfather, whose ward he had been almost from the time of his birth. Desirous of improving his condition he could not afford to follow his father in the teaching profession, but a business life had a greater appeal. Sold Garfield Photos His first venture in this line was the sale of small articles from a pack which he carried on his back. The most popular of his wares were pictures of President Hoover after his assassination. With his three brothers he gradually built up a business carried on in specially constructed four-mule wagons in which they traveled through Kanawa and surrounding counties exchanging dry milk, bread and eggs. Headquarters were established in Charleston, from which point shipments were made by river and rail to the markets of Cincinnati and Pittsburgh. After the bargain, the wagons were loaded by the addition of fruits and vegetables, was made exclusively wholesale. To accommodate its increasing growth, in 1916 he erected a modern business house with privateway connections and other facilities. Mr. James was a member of the chamber of commerce, a director of the company, and the Mountain State Building and Loan Association, and a member of the executive office of the Business League. During the World War he was a member of the state advisory council of defense and served as a four-time governor. Pioneer In Politics Also Dissatisfied with the treatment of his race by the Republican party, he espoused the principles of the Pro-Communist party, and two Negro delegates at large from this state to that party's national convention at Chicago in 1912. After the Progressive party, Mr. James allied himself with the Democratic party. Among the honors conferred upon him was his seat in the county of the counties which chose the locations for the state school for colored deaf and blind, the state industrial school for colored boys, and the state school for colored residents of the state.

DAY DREAM ALMOND CREAM KOLSTER EQUIPMENT BIG FACTOR IN "FLORIDA" RESCUE Official inquiry into the recent sinking of the Italian Steamship, "Florida," and the heroic rescue of her crew and passengers by the Steamship "America," branded by Captain George Fied, has brought light the remarkable part Kolster Radio equipment played in the rescue. Captain Fried states that it was only the unequalled accuracy of the Kolster Radio Compass, with which his ship is equipped, that him to determine the "Florida" and to arrive there in time to rescue the shipwrecked. Without this special Kolster equipment, it is improbable that the rescue would have been successful, as search for it brought a sea without definite knowledge of its location, would have been futile. Investigation disclosed that many other ships passing the sinking "Florida" at much near distance did not cept the distress signals sent out. The fact that the "America" was able to pick up these messages at so much greater distance than the distance range and sensitivity of the Kolster Radio equipment. This is the second time in which Captain Fried Kolster Radio equipment has been factors in saving lives of shipwrecked passengers, the other instance having been the Steamship *Vestris* disaster last year. Kolster Radio was first to come to the scene of that sea calamity, in which he was instrumental in saving a great number of them. The same remarkable scientific qualities and mechanical excellence and precision also characterize the famous Kolster Radio and Columbia Dr. Kolster also has helped perfect, he is the owner of many other patents which have been incorporated along with other valuable features in this Columbia-Kolster equipment. These highly perfected musical instruments have resulted from the combined years of experience and instruction by two of the oldest companies in the music industry, the Columbia Phonograph Company and the Kolster Radio Corporation. These companies afford the public today both radio reception and phonograph reproduction of the highest conceivable standard. Their marvelous tone qualities are attained together with exclusive and patented amplification features of recent scientific developments in sound reproduction, which permits the recording of high-quality notes, notes and deepest bass notes, formerly inaudible on the old acoustic type phonographs and early radio sets. These new advances in the sound reproduction field are looked upon as the most important developments in this present period of extensive scientific achievements. 100 Women Strike PHILA.
