One Time Plasterer Three Years Ago Didn't Own His Own Home.
FATHER AN INDIAN
Tom Johnson Shared in U.S.
Grant to Red Men.
HOPKINSVILLE, Ky.—
Thomas Johnson, Negro-
Indian, died May 25 in a local hospital, just three years after he had inherited a $20,000,000 estate. His heirs have lined up into two groups to battle for the estate.
Three years ago Johnson was known in Pryorsburg, Ky., as a hard-working plasterer who continually talked of the day he would own his home and be able to start a bank account.
A government agent traced Johnson to Pryorsburg and told the man that he had shared in the allotment in the Greek Nation, as his father was an Indian. Johnson's share, it was estimated, would be worth $20,000,000.
Lawsnits
Johnson then became the center of several lawsuits, with one group trying to prove that he had no right to the cill lands and another seeking to show that he but did because of a relationship, they too could share.
There were reports, after Johnson made a trip to Oklahoma, of offers he had received to sign certain papers and of threats that had been made if he did not receive several people in McLester had attempted to obtain his signature after he had arrived there for the hearing, Judge Bunk Gardner, his attorney, said that the Negro had been approachable many times while the judge and several people in McLester had indicted and the judge said, "had worried himself sick over something that was said."
Johnson, with his attorney, went to McAlester, Okla., last month for a hearing on his case. The hearing was set for April 30 but the call was terminated until July 1 at Mokogee, Okla.
Gardner in the white coach and Johnson, the millionaire, in the jim-crow car, started home, and at Loncke. Ak. Johnson left the train. It pulled out without him as questions were asked and his story of being worth millions led Loncke officers to believe he was insane.
Gardner, who had gone on to Mavfield, not knowing that his client had been left behind, was notified that Johnson was being a memorial judge asked that he be sent to Memphis and said he would meet him there.
Johnson, who he arrived in Memphis in company with a Lonoke officer on the evening of May 11, appeared rational. He was taken for site but he to hold for Judge Gardner who, in the meantime, had requested Deputy Inspector Joe Bishop to take care of Johnson and send him to Mayfield on Saturday Gardner said that Johnson was not nervous but he been very nervous for several days.
A few hours after Johnson arrived there he became so irrational that officers refused to please him until Gardner but to a relative came in May 4. He returned home and not long afterwards was committed to the asylum by a lunacy commission. He failed rapidly after his confinement.
3 Doctor Husbands Enough; Wife Tries Suicide
MEMPHIS, Tenn.-Mrs. Inez Ballow: Smith Ward Antoine, three married to two doctors, and a dentist, attempted to escape by shooting herself through the head, when her last husband, Dr. M. Antoine, refused to make up with her.
Strange names and strange addresses were put down on the docket at the Northwestern police station late Saturday night, when police raided the dental offices of Dr. Chalmers Hairstown. 1140 Druid Hill avenue, and arrested 14 men on the charge of disturbing the peace.
Dr. Hairston told the AFRO there were 17 men in his office and a friendly game of cards was in progress of tilt escaped when officers arrived.
Sunday morning, all of the men were dismissed.

S. C. Senator at Same Time Fights Enforcement of Constitution.
DIXIE DEFIANT
Vote, Blease Thinks.
WASHINGTON, D. C. "The South is willing to lose more than representation in Congress before accepting the Negro on terms of political and social equality."
So declared Senator Coleman L. Blease, Democrat of South Carolina, on the floor of the Senate during the debate on the bill to provide for the decennial census and the apportionment of representatives in Congress, last Wednesday.
Blease made two arguments against the measure which proposes to reduce the representation in the Southern States under the Fifteenth Amendment where some 8,000,000 Negroes are disfranchised.
Blease made two arguments against reduction of Southern representation. He quoted the federal census of 1920 which shows 7,427,004 unnaturalized aliens in the United States, most of whom were in the north. By using the Congressional divisor 211,877. Blease declared that these aliens who cannot vote but are counted as members of the population, have 35 votes in the electoral college and 35 congressmen.
Of the 10,453,131 Negroes in the United States practically all of whom are native born citizens, 805,750 are inhabitants of the Southern States giving those States 38 representatives in Congress.
Blease's argument was that since the North counts its non-voting allens for the purpose of congressional apportionment, it should permit the South to count its non-voting Negroes for the same purpose.
SECOND ARGUMENT.
Blease's second argument was that no matter which party, Republican or Democrat, is in control, the South presents in Congress and more, before it would be willing to give the Negro the right to vote there.
On this same question Blease added, "No true friend of the Negro race is going to advocate the reduction of the South's representation in Congress, in the South has this representation how in the name of common sense can he hope to receive the ballot after the South has been deprived of the representation he owes to the poor, some States in the South. Blease said South Carolina went Democratic because: "I stand for State's rights, we propose ever to stand for them. However they may be trampled, under foot, we do not propose under any condition or allowance to the Northern party to Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and to the men who fought on the battle-fields of Virginia for that great principle. "But I warn you, gentlemen now, that the Northern States as he Is doing rapidly, an example of which is shown just across at the other end of this business," the Democratic party has sent one of its number as a representative in Congress, while you may, have carried a few Southern States in the last election. The Democratic State with regard to Hoover, will switch back to the Democratic party in the next election."

WHITES RIDE IN BALTO CO. WHILE PARENTS FIGHT
Spend More on White Transportation than on Negro Secondary Education.
TEN WHITE HIGHS
TOWSON, Md.—The bitter war that has been raging for the past three years between the parents of Baltimore county and the County Board of education, is being renewed as the date for the annual elimination examinations nears.
Some idea of the colossal robbery perpetrated against Negro tax payers in the county can be derived from the fact that in 1928 Baltimore graduated from white high schools 311 pupils and provided tuition for only 62 colored children in high schools in the entire county.
And this same 62 students who received training in an approximate cost of $94 each can also be compared with 2581 white students who received high school training throughout the county during the year 1928. In 1928 Baltimore county employed 63 full time teachers in high schools and home for colored.
TRANSPORTATION
Perhaps the most scorching incident that the parents will lay before the school district is the county spent more for the transportation to and from school alone, for white high school pupils than it spent on the second-grade school district. A whole. The item of transportation alone cost the county $13,856. The total expenditure on colored high school students did not exceed $10,000. The county operates high schools for white pupils at Catonsville, Towson, and Winston-Salem. Rannalstown, Fuierton, Duindal, Parkville and Essex.

The report that abolishment of the annual competitive drill of the Ninth Brigade of high school cadets was being considered was ridiculed by Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of public schools, in an interview Monday.

He stated that the school officials insist upon students being instructed by principals and teachers every year "not only to conduct themselves properly but to display themselves properly in connection with decision.
Self-Control
"The real test of discipline," he said, "comes when that decision is made, not only for the cadets but for the childrens in the respective schools and the patrons of the ferent schools. We need educational opportunities to put over a program self-control, in discipline and in true sportsmanship.
"The thirty-seventh annual competitive drill was one of the best controlled ever had, not only on the part of the cadets at the critical moment when the decision was rendered also on the part of the spectators."
Captain Not Escorted
The report that Capt. John Davis who commanded Company A, the winning company, had to be escorted home and that a disturbance was created in front of his home in the company after a visit by Wilkinson after a conference with the principals of Dunbar. Armstrong and Gardozo High Schools.

GHICAGO—(ANP)—This city renewed its offer to the National Benefit Life Insurance Company to locate here when Samuel W. R. Rutherford, the founder, secretary and treasurer of the largest commercial enterprise Negroes have erected in America, and R. H. Rutherford, his son, president of that institution sat as guests of honor in the Appomattox Club last Wednesday night
They were told how Chicago was already the business metropolis of Black America. "The greatest banks, the most unusual employment, the biggest newspapers, the largest number of lawyers, the greatest number of physicians, the largest number of varied types of business and the greatest possibilities are in the largest number of the world." "Bring National Benefit to Chicago," they were advised. "Already it is the financial pivot of the Negro in America and soon it will be the insurance center." Have been tremendously impressed by the uniqueness and the splendid united civic spirit with which you tender your invitation," said S. W. Rutherford. "I was amazed and impressed a few weeks ago when a group of Chicago business men called on us at Washington Square, Chicago, but to be their guests on this occasion. We are flattered and pleased at the fine warmth of your welcome and our imagination has been kindled as we have looked about this city and sensed its great possibilities.
"You are making tremendous progress and then think what we see here tonight, the presidents of two great presidents of two great competing insurance companies, as well as representatives of other enterprises, all joining hands to extol the virtues of the presidents of worth while spirit, and portrays a new day when our men can come together in this spirit of cooperation. We shall take to heart your proffer, we shall have the deepest consideration."

Only “Outs” Want to Get “In,” Howard Says.
WASHINGTON—Striking back at opponents of J. Finley Wilson, grand legal advocate of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World, W. Howard, grand legal advocate who is the spokesman for the health department, declared Tuesday that a statement Sheridan A. Brueaux, a Chester detective, charging that Mr. Wilson and honor-iums a total of $200,000 was issued for partisan purposes. Mr. Howard has been chosen as the grand legalman for Grand Exalted Ruter Wilson. His statement is in part as follows:
"It is indeed strangals that all of this noise is made about the expense of the grand exalted ruler who lives in the grand exalted ruler services of the order, but nothing is said about the expense accounts of former secretary Bates who is running on the ticket with Mr. Holstein, who is not only equal to but in excess of the grand exalted ruler, and Mr. Bates while grand secretary gave the attention to the office only in the morning, finished a day work in New York City. "Nothing is said of the fact that Mr. Bates charged the grand lodge for his personal entertainment of the grand judge auditors while they were in New York City. "Let me say that there is absolutely nothing wrong except that there are some people on the outside wanting positions. They would find the immaculate Satoru if he were holding a place which they desired."

WHITE MOTHER CONVICTED OF JAIL BREAK AID
Sunday School Teacher Aided Colored Slayer Since Executed.
FURNISHED PISTOL
Verdict Carries 2 to 7 Year
POTTSVILLE.—A white Sunday school teacher, mother of two children, last week was found guilty of helping a convicted colored slayer to escape from jail here.
She is Clara Fessler, 31, of Summit Station. The penalty is two to seven years in prison. The town is in an uprorm, for the scandal involves the town commissioners. She was convicted of aiding and abetting the escape of Elverez Miquel, Cuban, March 9. He was recaptured 16 hours later, and was executed for the murder of his sweetheart.
Mrs. Fessler visited the prison frequently and became sympathetic with the plight of Miquel.
She made two confessions. They were read at the trial. The first was the Miquel the pickol and ammunition he used in escaping. The second said she gave the gun and shells to Dominick Zervaglia white, prison guard, and that Miquel reimbursed her for the purchase of the revolver.
The woman, Zervaglia, Haerrer and two others were indicted by the March grand jury for resisting as warden. Since then the two Republican County Commissioners have been involved, District Attorney Synder swearing out warrants for their arrest. New newspaper editors, accused of criminal libel, have furnished bond.
Commissioners Arrested
The commissioners furnished bond on a charge of accepting a bribe to appoint Haerter warden. The two have a hearing on charges of malfeasance in office. The six last week brought into the open a bitter political battle between Synder and Judge Henry Houck. The judge had refused to let Snyder present the commissioners' case before the present grand jury. The judge had refused to swear out warrants and bring the men before an Alderman for a hearing.

Pain in Side
MISS Isola King, 405 Eighth Ave. (North), Nashville, Tenn.; writes:
"About two years ago, I was in ill health. I suffered a great deal with my side and books. My back was so weak I could hardly stand it if I had to stand any length of time.
"At times, I would have very severe headaches.
"I read of Cardul, and decided to try it. I have never regretted it for it helped me so much. The pain and soreness left my side, and I quit having the headache. I took it. I took Cardul off and on for a year. Now I am in good health; have been for a year."

HESITATE BEFORE SENDING BOYS TO LINCOLN
Questionnaire Exposed by AFRO, Arouses Ire of Dr W. E. B. DuBois.
ALUMNI INVOKED
Time to Take Firm Hold Says Crisis Editorial.
"Lincoln University has 130 juniors and seniors. Recently, Langston Hughes, one of the senior students, was among these students. Lincoln has never had a Negro professor, although it has smoe colored instructors. The questionnaire asked these a few years ago, were in favor of having colored and white professors, or only white professors. The answers to this and other questions have been published by MERGAN and have been assured officially by the authorities of Lincoln that the facts given are substantially correct.
"Of 127 students' answering, 81 opposed to having colored professors."
Most Astonishing Blow
"This is the most astonishing blow which the higher education of Negroes in the Ur.red States has received for many a year. "Grasp its significance: suppose that English students should declare by a nearly two-thirds majority that they did not wish to be taught by Englishmen, because they doubled the number of students to the character or to their teachers. "Or worse than this, take the case of Chinese students where the nation has just grievance against white Europe; and imagine two-thirds of the students in a leading Chinese university voting that they did not want any Chinese, professors, but preferred to have European pro-
Things Not Well
"This is what Lincoln University has done, and it forcuses the light upon this institution where many persons have had long the unasy feeling that things are not well. That I can be, on the one hand,
no doubt of the service of Lincoln to the nation. The men which she has sent out, and scattered over the United States are, the citizens and workers. If their citizens proved that Negroes can only be taught by white folks, then the Negro race in America and in the world is indeed an inferior. Because
"But this cannot just as worthy and gifted Negress have come out to the world from Howard, Iowa, Atlanta, and a dozen institutions where Negro teachers have long been on the teaching force.
Succeed Despite J. C
"Manifestly, therefore, the success of Lincoln graduates has been spite of race discrimination and not because of it, and the attitude of these under-graduates is not so much a proof of their either sense or shinna as an astonishing indictment of the teaching of professors.
"If the result of their teaching is to train up young men to be ashamed or doubtful of themselves and darker, yellower, or less faithful in their duty. This does not mean that they have deliberately taught this message or consciously inculcated the message; but they certainly have not actively and consciously instilled in their students a knowledge of what the Negro has done in the past, or what he is doing, or what he is doing.
White Men Cannot Teach Race Pride
"Indeed, this sort of thing is just what white men in the very nature of the case cannot teach even if they tried, just as Negro professors alone cannot wholly and completely present the case and attitude of the white world. Here lies the strength of the argument for a mixed faculty in all schools. The reason for importing foreign professors and lecturers and for increasing the contact of races in colleges.
"The failure of Lincoln to do this is bearing bitter fruit, and any persons, even graduates of Lincoln themselves, who have sons or daughters who would like to hesitate before putting them in an institution where they are liable to emerge with no faith in their own parents, or in themselves. Is it not time that Lincoln themselves and took firm hold of this threatening situation?"
Two Claim Man as
Mate; He Denies Both
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J.—(A P.) Jerry Hunt of 21 Overton and two women, Elle Hunt, 30, and Elizabeth Stevens, who claim him as their husband, had called him before Magistrate Waldmayer. Elizabeth charged Effe with assault, telling Judge Waldmayer that he had cornered street corner, "talking to my own husband, when Effe came along and started to beat me up. I got a right to talk to my own husband, when Effe came along. Here, Effe intervened, saying that Jerry is her husband. Accordingly Jerry was brought up to testify as to whose husband he was." "Which woman is your wife?" the judge asked.
"Neither one is. Judge."
"Neither one is stupid."
"Well, whom do you like better?"
"Oh—I like Eliza best, Judge," Jerry replied.
The magistrate dismissed the case, advising Jerry and Elizabeth to "get married for real."

The Girl Reserves really stepped into their own last Friday and Saturday evening presentation of "Show Bowl," in its seven big acts.

No More Boxes.
But say I'll never sit-in a box again! From now on, henceforth and overreverence, I will be a "peanut" where I belong. A box cramps my style! I wanted to clap, and sigh, and weep and go to the "Mr. Howardie" song "Done Mane Move!" The Howard University Glee Club can sang, but when that man in which he sat me with I had blessed with a "poker face"—I was sitting almost on the stage.
When I learned when I leased so far forward, that I had to grip the hair for support (it did have a rather stabilizing effect—sort of like Hankie choir sang, "Lord Our God, Have Mercy). But in all seriousness, Mr. James Weldon Johnson had a remarkable achievement if the white people who settled in this country, having a common language and heritage, had the task of conquering untainted nature, and stirred with the hope of building an empire had created the Negro spirituals. But from whom did these songs spring—these songs unsurpassed among folk songs, their beauty, and unqualified." The NEGRO!"

for high schools, Baltimore county should be spending $18,800 annually for a colored high school. Instead, it actually expends but $8,605 in sending 62 children to Baltimore city school. In plain words, colored taxpayers are robbed every year of $12,000 worth of high school education. The money is stolen from them by this extra-laborious procedure of the school authority, surely as if the school officials help up the Negro population at the reveller.
Highway robbery is a crime when perpetrated by an individual, but a school board gets away with it every year in Baltimore county. As intelligent leadership among Negroes in the county develops, somebody is going to get mad. When that day comes, the county board will be slapped in the face with an injunction by NEPA taxpayers, compelling it to show cause why school funds should not be equitably expenDED.
Where are the county leaders? Are they aware that a remedy lies in the courts? How much longer must the common people wait upon them for initiative?

Are There Any Benedict College Alumni in Baltimore?
To the Editor:
Benedictines Awake! Are there any sons and daughters of Old Benedict College in Baltimore? Is there a Benedict Club? If there is not, then Benedict Baltimoreans awake! If there is, let's have some publicity. Who are our leaders? We will follow.
Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey is Present Wife of U.N.A.L. Leader.
To the Editor:
Mrs. Amy Jacques-Garvey is the present wife of the President-General of the Universal Negro Association of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and your recent article is an injustice to her, because of the fact that many people, not knowing Mrs. Amy Jacques-Garvey, and reading this article, would immediately conclude that she is the person you want to be. Mrs. Amy Jacques-Garvey, most of you, will always read your paper with much pleasure and have felt that of all the Negro periodicals, the AFRO-AMERICAN stands most prominent for justice to all, and therefore we feel by caring for you that we who constitute the membership of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and hundreds of which read your paper weekly, feel that you will correct this error in your next issue. Kindly take note in the future of the article that Mrs. Amy Jacques-Garvey, the present wife of the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and Mrs. Amy Ashwood-Garvey, wife No. 1, as your article explains.

An Open Letter to Bishop H. M. Davis, of the A.M.E. Church.
I have read an account of your trip to West Africa in the papers. I take this opportunity to let you know wherein your errors lie:
You expressed joy and gladness for being born in this America. What have you in America?
Have you been successful to get justice for America? Have you been successful to get justice and what purpose are you doing? Take your "bread and butter job" away from you; what will you become? You will be in the same position and condition of the jungle inhabitant of Africa. If you are proud of America wherein you are jumwed and segregated and given no social justice, and barely exist as a social parasite, why must the African to be proud of his own culture?
I must inform you that speeches like yours have always caused a thinking individual to doubt what Christianity really is. The failure of your church in Africa is due to your attitude towards the African, who is not begging you for money. You are not being the gospel of sympathy and love, the gospel of filial affections, the gospel of truth and equality of all men; as lived and taught by Jesus of Nazareth.
Finally, I must warn you that unless you stop this propaganda, Christianity will never be Christianized and it will become more and more difficult to attain what would rather than an asset. I would welcome a reply from you in the columns of this paper.

The Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's Anti-Negro Employment Policy Calls for United Efforts on the Part of the Negro.
To the Editor:
I highly appreciate that which comes out of the State of old Maryland, a newspaper of our group, the editor of which has the intestinal fortitude to make a defense for the right to bear arms, because he has been posted as evidence as strong as the Lord's Praxy, that only the living who fight for com- justice can make a place in the markets of civilization
"Quoting this paragraph: "Here's a man who eats his bread by the grace of nickels and the dollar, he hikes his living Negroes are not good enough to work for him and for themselves."
If the directors of every Negro insurance company in the United States would picture, as you say this damnable insult to the American Negro and prove that the words of Mr. Fisk's weekly newsletter, the 20 million dollar, heavily paid into the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company would be transferred to Negro banks and Negro loan and building associations, and the day would not be far distant when many of the mortgage bandits would cease to fore-
The race will appreciate the fight your medium makes, which means employment to thousands of Negro boys and girls in this country.
I thank you again for this editorial and hope that the inspiration from it will inspire millions to resent the polio屠 attack of the vice-president of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company.

Thanks to Reader Lee, but the AFRO Printed Only What Pastor Brooks Himself Declared, a True Report of His Sermon.
To the Publisher.
On behalf of the Lincoln Temple W.G.T.U. of which I am a member, I am writing you in protest of the policy pursued by your paper in holding up for public criticism a portion of the very excellent sermon delivered by our pastor, Rev. R. W. Brooks, on Mothers' Day, referring to the conduct of certain of our community presenting the social phase of Washington life.
The National W.C.T.U. of, which our Union forms a part, is the largest body of organized womanhood in the world that stands for all that is pure and good and upright in daily life. It is a special department of the standard of morals for right living of both sexes. It has a special department for the encouragement of social purity, and we, as members of that body, hereby enter our protest against any newspaper that professes respect to holding Christ as the Lord, condemns wrong doing in or among any group or circle of people. A minister would not be true to his calling if he failed to condemn sin and wickedness, even in high places. He would allow your paper to stoop to the low tactics of the Police Gazette of other days and a certain type of newspapers published in New York of today. It will become editors and educators to bellittle the sins of the world, to allow your paper to stoop to the higher social, moral and religious standard. It is not commercially safe to do so, to say nothing of the principle involved: While I hope that our pastors will ignore the made by me, paper, by signified silence, let offer our permission on behalf of the Christian womanhood of race, our church and our community.

(Ahn) "Mulatress" is the latest, and no doubt the worst of the newly coined words describing the Negro and is attributed to the Atlanta (Ga.) nation.
Constitution
"blackness," "Negress," "Mulatto," "Mulattress," "black and "blackness," from all of which are to understand that in the future feminine as well as masculine gender may be indicated by
the word. Suppose the Georgians also go far enough to say "Caucasian and Caucasianess." "Chinese and Chineseess," or "Indian and Indianess." Eventually we should get down to "cracker and crackeress."
Who's a Rebel?
"Both at West Point and Annapolis, the few colored youths admitted have encountered a superlative degree of pre- from the Caucasian students.
"Of the two, Annapolis, being in a rebel State, is naturally far the worst, but West Point is saturated enough with the American Nordic snobbery to make it an act of herolism for a colored youth to battle through the four year course."—Chicago Whip.
Since when has Maryland become a rebel State.
Maryland's house of delegates voted April 29, 1861, 53 to 13 against secession from the Union. The senate followed suit unanimously. This State did not secede from the Union. President-elect Lincoln was assigned April 16 that he needed no armed escort while passing through Maryland to the inauguration at Washington. In the war itself, United States official records show 8,718 Negroes, 50,316 white soldiers and 3,925 sailors and marines from Maryland fought to save the Union. This means that twenty per cent of Maryland's free male Negroes and fifteen per cent of the State's male white men in the Union army and navy. A smaller percentage of Maryland whites fought on the side of the lost cause.
The list of Maryland Negroes in the navy is not complete. They served by the hundreds. The roster of Company A, 30th Regiment, U. S. colored troops, Maryland Volunteers, shows twenty-four men transferred to the navy. The U. S. Inspector General issued dated June, 1864, termed the 7th Maryland Regiment in the service of colored men in the inauguration at Washington.
As a part of the army of the Potomac, a correspondent of the New York Tribune, after seeing the 11 Marylanders carry with fixed bayonets, a line of rifle pits, wrote to his paper, "it was one of the most stirring and gallant affairs I have ever seen." His New troops were the first to reach the center of the city of Petersburg. In the final assault that compelled General Lee's surrender, Maryland's black warriors were at Appamotto. We of Maryland of course but did our duty in the Civil War, when we colored folk went to war. 8,718 men died in the war so that we must boast of but neither should be silent while Illinois, which sent but 1,311 colored men to the Union Army, smears us with the hateful and false name of rebel.
The Difference
The United States Constitution provides in Amendment 14 for the reduction of Congressional representation for any State which disfranches its citizens. Cole Blease. (Dem. S. C.) argued in the Senate last week against the amendment of the recount that disfrances was ingenuous. Said Blease, the South counts 8,055,760 Negroes who cannot vote because they are disfranchised, but the North counts 7,427,604 persons as a part of its population who are disfranchised because they are aliens. In other words, Blease opines that for the purpose of Congressional apportionment, the North must count 7,427,604 persons for Negroes, the South nearly 1,025,100 persons. Therefore, both should keep quiet and let things remain in status quo. The fallacy in this argument is evident: Fact No. 1. The Constitution requires reduction of representation where any State disfranches its citizens. Fact No. 2. The Constitution says nothing about children except to make their native born children citizens and entitled to the ballot.
Please shows his hand when he says that the South is willing to lose thirty-eight representatives in Congress rather than permit the Negro to vote. That is the Dixie attitude toward the Negro. At the same time the North, through night schools and special classes in citizenship, endeavors to qualify the alien for citizenship. No parallel exists between disfranchisement of alien and Negro, except as to numbers of people. The Senate does so the Senate, despite its refusal hitherto to carry out the plain and mandatory declarations in the 14th Amendment.
Where Are the Leaders?
There are ten white and no colored high schools in Baltimore county.
Nearly ninety colored boys and girls will graduate from the seventh grade in Catonsville. Towson and Sparrows Point with no colored high schools will attend, though the State law faxes 15 to 30 pupils as the minimum requirement for a high school.
To be sure, the Baltimore county school authorities make some gesture at providing for a high school training for colored children. The county defrays the tuition of 62 colored children, $400 eligible—in the Baltimore city high schools.
To keep this number down as low as possible, the county authorities provide an examination so difficult that only 10 of the 79 elementary school graduates were able to pass it last year.
No such examination is given white elementary school graduates before they are admitted to high school.
The following figures show just how far this injustice of the county school board extends: in white Baltimore county high schools cost the county taxpayers $49,795 last year. Of this sum, $27,525 came by way of State and Federal aid.

The Color Line in H. U. Frats
A few light-skinned persons believe they are superior to the rest by reason of their white blood, but they form a small and insignificant minority.
(By Chancellor Williams in current issue of the Hilltop, Howard University Publication.)
If the article in the last edition of the Hilltop "Putting a Question up to Howard Students," had not gained the wide public that it did, I would happily let this ignorant and decadently foolish article be reprinted in several papers, each of which has a nation-wide circulation, the matter took on serious proportions. Our university life is placed in a very unfavorable light before the American public. As a protest against color discrimination in the university and written with praise-worthy intentions, nevertheless hurt us a great deal. It pictures Howard to the public as a school gone "color crazy" where the students under mulatto domination and leadership separate into light-groups, and under dark-groups. It pictures the fraternities and sororites as fostering this segregation.
Gives White Papers Glee.
the white papers jumped upon this news gleefully. The Times, which gives our worthwhile news very little space, gave this "color" article two columns with big type. The white papers want from colored people. They want to hear that we are not satisfied with our color. They want to hear that we are longing to be white. They want to know that they are right in discriminating against colored people where colored people discriminate. They want that of this division along lines of color. And they like to think that colored people with white blood feel superior to, and lord it over those of darker skin. They are anxious to hear that this "color disease" affects not only the great masses of our people, but actually prevalent, in our colleges and universities.
White Colleges.
The white colleges can now feel justified in their programs on race discrimination and segregation because they are now in any State legislature—in fact every move anywhere to advance the status of our group can be successfully blocked on the ground that we do not even believe in equal rights among students.
White Bloods
First, it must be clearly understood by the whole American people that there is neither a general color discrimination within our race, nor is there a "class" of mutuates, "high-yallers" or any other mixed blood class as such. Second, light skin colored people, or those of white blood, are on the whole as loyal and devoted to the race as are those of us of darken skin. The evidence shows that most light people do not really feel superior to darken skin, and that most of them to remind them that they are the sons and daughters of southern white men.
Fools in Minority.
Only the fools take pride in this reflection; and I insist that the fools are in the minority in this university, Dean Miller to the contrary, howtowards learning. This is not possible. This is no attempt to white-wash the facts. The truth is that the color question has been greatly magnified. The attempts to form a light skin class become sensational rather than unusual and normal rather than the rule.
White, Skinned Minority.
Third, there are at Howard University and in every part of the United States, a few light skin persons who really believe that they are superior to the rest by reason of their white blood. But these form a small, and insignificant minority. They may get in contact with students who want to form an exclusive mulatto or mixed blood class, but they fail because the majority of light skin students are not with them.
And we want everybody to know that actions of a few misfits do not represent the true situation at Howard University. We control the membership of any fraternity or sorority, yet these organizations are not exclusively for light or brown students. I checked up on the membership and found dark students in most of them.
Negroes by Law, Not by Nature.
Looking at the question from another angle, I sometimes wonder at the loyalty of the great majority of black students. We made "Negroes by American law, and not by any natural law. By the law of nature they are as much white as they are colored.
We must not get angry with the few who must be used of the struggle for equal opportunities, seek to get on the easy side—the white side, where some of their blood entitles them.
The few students in the university who are of this type deserve our sympathy. They are the victims of a Caucasian disease. They have been taught along with the rest of us that the white man is born superior to other men. The difference is that they believe it and we know better. The reason that if the white race is innately better than the darker race, then those who have white blood must be better than those who have not. The fallacy is in the "if."
White Superiority.
In classes in sociology, psychology or wherever the race question is raised, these misguided ones never fail to press the claim of the white man to superiority and, therefore, rightful domination of the black man they outdo the most famous Georgia crackers.
The great majority of the students of Howard University are too intelligent to be obsessed with any color mania. We are not separating into light groups, dark groups or brown groups. We are not separating into factorial accounts of sign—sill speaking of the general rule and not the exception.
May As Well Close Down.
In conclusion, if this color mania represented the general situation at Howard, the university might as well close down, for all that education means as well education means and sexism means made for us come to naught.
The university can not be made a social center dominated by persons of a particular color. There is still enough common sense and race pride in the majority to make this im-
Publicly Denounced.
Any organization which backs such a movement should be singled out, publicly named, and publicly denounced. No fraternity or sorority can well exist under continuous publication. The only fraternities as a whole should not be condemned for the actions of the few.
VACATION.
You ask what's the matter,
What makes me laugh and chatter?
Well, here's the explanation
A few more days and then vacation.
Folks spend their days in working
Boy and girl in books of learning;
But we all make preparation
When June brings thought of our vac
When June brings thought of our vacation;
So that's the reason for the smiles ,
That can be seen for the smiles;
And each one rinses with exaltation
As each one nears his own vacation.

sion This if He Travels far.
To the Editor:
Social equality is no longer a smoke screen
for whites in North Carolina.
We are proud of Dr. Moton on his platform
in his recent speech, stating that social equality
is not the Negro's goal.
We are proud of where wealthy Negroes
married white women and as soon as these
women got all they had or all they could get,
they would kick 'em out, with my approval.
If the Negro ever can open his eyes, politically speaking, the time to do so is now. Does he favor Mr. Hoover's lily-wile policy or does he not? Is he more concerned with jobs than with justice? How far is he able to marshal and direct his forces so as to compel the objects which he has in view?
By KELLY MILLER
Common sense is the rarest kind of sense. It is so rarely manifested, that Dr. Booker T. Washington sometimes referred to it as the Negro relation to the political equation, from first to last, has been characterized by hysteria. He was catapulted to the presidency by the power of war. He was liberated, citizenized and enfranchised with the swiftness and celerity of the rapidly changing scenes of a drama. He was elevated and Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution were calculated to place him on a footing of political equality with the majority of numbers have been competitive, serious difficulty has arisen. In the denser Negro states the amendments have been annulled by the common consent and agreement of the African people.
Took No Heed.
In the hey day of reconstruction, when the Negro wielded undisputed power according to his numerical strength, there was little or no prevision of the dangers and physical challenges. The Negro politician of that day, feeling secure in his donated power and privilege, took no heed of his impending undoing. He sigmed wholly unmindful of the deep-seated principle that ignorance cannot long rule over, nor weakness dominates strength.
In my own state of South Carolina, where the Negroes wielded controlling power for a season, they failed utterly to see that their children. They rewilded in the luxury of their new found power as if it would last forever. They lighted their cigars with five dollar bills, affecting to hope that five dollar bills would be Washington as the seat and source of their power with satisfied assurance that the Federal government would forever guarantee their recently vouchsafed rights. In the sense of Washington sense, they might have stayed off the day of doom or at least relieved the severity of the blow. But like the self-deluded world in the days of Noah, they continued to eat and drink and to make merry until the rising flood overwhelmed them. Seats of Power. After being from the seat of Noah by overmastering local white sentiment, they still vaguely and vainly hoped to regain the blessful seats by appeal to the government at Washington. They put their whole reliance in a political party, instead of own resources and usefulness.
Men learn slowly by experience. Repeated failure never discerns the ardent optimist. The gambler who has repeatedly lost, hopes to win at the next throw. We prize it over wins or losses, but failure of repeating never lessens our faith in prayer. The Negro has pinned his hope to the Grand Old Party from the first until now. But repeated rebuffs and repulses have not yet wholly broken his political faith in the all-sufficiency of the party of Lincoln.
Local Adjustability.
Somehow or other there has been the consistent hope that some political messiah would arise who would redeem all fading hopes. During the last campaign, Mr. Obama referred to Mr. Hoover as the second Abraham Lincoln. Of course the good Quaker must have laughed at the political unity of the oppressive Afro-American. Common sense ought to teach us that the race can no longer pin its hopes to any party nor president, Taft, Harding or Coolidge tried their hardest (and now President Hoover tries) to convince the Negro that whatever political party he was in his local adjustability, and not in his ascendency or defeat of any political party or politician. Action is more persuasive than words.
Gleam of Hope.
There is, however, some gleam of hope that this hysteria is growing weaker. During the last campaign the leading Negro journals and publicists cautioned the race that Negro need no hope for reelection for the Republican Party. Mr. Hoover will probably complete the work of disillusionment which his predecessors began. The elimination of Negroes from places of leadership which he prefers is the last act in the drama of disillusionment. The two political parties in the North now stand on precisely the same footing as when the Negro's rights and prerogatives. When the ill-white program is complete, will he be let down in a difference between the parties in the South.
Now Is Time.
Common sense would counsel that the leaders of the race should take heed of the clearly foresawed sadness of our political leaders are prone to stand lazily by and wait until the white man has fixed the game and the rules for playing it and then rust in them. Now is the time for our newspapers and our political leaders and spokesmen to formulate plans for the future. If they wait until the next presidential election, the same old story will be repeated.
We praise the candidate to the skies for things which we ought to know beforehand are not forthcoming. We are elected, for unfulfilled hopes which we had no right to entertain.
I followed the last campaign with considerable closeness. Mr. Hoover misused the Negro anything. He is therefore, under no blighted obligation as other presidents have been. I rather honor him for not helping himself by prelection promises.
If the New York ever can open his eyes, politically speaking, the time to do so is now. Does he favor Mr. Hoover's white-policy or does he not? Is he more concerned with jobs than marshals and direct his forces so as to compel the objects which he has in view?
Racial Disabilities.
Some of our would-be leaders are so devoid of common sense that they are carried away with platitudes, alas, and are unable to treat all citizens without regard to race or color. This is an absurd impossibility. Let us hope that the Negro's future for the next forty years will be characterized by sense, and not by hysteria, such as has prevailed for the past forty years.
What to Do When Children Contract Contagious Diseases
Health Department Issues Instruction to Parents Concerning Measles, German Measles, Chicken Pox, Mumps and Whooping Cough.
Isolate the sick child until the Health Department gives you permission to release him. By isolation we mean: —
(a) Keep him in a room separate from other members of the family.
(b) Allow no one to go into the sick room who has not had the same disease before.
(c) Make it a rule that whoever gets into the sick room to attend the patient must wash his or her hands before leaving the sick room.
(d). Keep all handkerchiefs, towels, clothing, eating utensils, and all other articles from the sick entirely separate from them used by the rest of the family.
Certificate.
Other children are not allowed to go to school or go out of the house without a Health Department certificate. Those not having a permit may not go to school. The Health Department takes down the sign. No child should go to school who has fever; cough; head cold; puffy, red; or watery eyes; or rash.
Release Cleaning
When the Health Department gives you permission to release the sick child, he should be given a bath and dressed in clean clothes. The sick room should then be thoroughly cleaned. The room should also eat using utensils should be taken out of the sick room and boiled for 10 minutes. The woolens
Jim-Crow Car Dixie's Own
Shut your eyes and listen to conductor talk. You can't tell if he's white or colored. Porter usually picks the girls to talk to.
(Lester Walton in N. Y. World)
"A Jim Crow" coach on the Yazoo & Mississippi Valley Railroad; scores of good natured, chattering field hands traveling to naked paints, dingy railway stations painted questionable yellow; miles and rules of cotton fields.
The Yazoo and Mississippi Valley Railroad, a branch of the Illinois Central, traverses the delta between Jacksonville, Jackson, and this area, whose richness and fertility of soil are unsurpassed, the Negro, mule and cotton are known as the great triumvirate. The blacks are overly helpless. The whites are the population for the entire State to such proportions as to outnumber the whites.
Speech.
On every trip the train conductor, candy butcher and train porter are cast in stellar roles. The two first-mentioned are white. To but to hear them talk with eyes closed you would be apt to confine yourself to the room. It is easy to master to differentiate between white and colored folks in the delta merely by listening to their conversation. Usually ocular proof is necessary. The train porter is the most interesting of the personnel, a black weighing nearly 200 pounds, he officiates as a sort of master of ceremonies. He and the Pullman porter live in different worlds. One reserved, courteous and respectful to his sophisticated passions and his affable, and affable, who socializes with the naive members of his race and whose well-meant attentions are welcomed. Porter Talks to the Girls.
After a woman passenger has been assisted from the coach with her bundles and the train is again in motion, the port officer tries to unload a female. The fact that he has never met her before does not matter. He considers it his business to indulge in a bit of pleasantry, which he does without giving off the sense. Sometimes he bends over and chats on one of his many stereotyped subjects. On one occasion he observed an elderly woman in deep thought. Putting his arms around her as if she were his mother, he began to chant Negro spirituals. Within a few minutes she were engrossed in religious discussion. Only once did the train porter cease to function as an accommodating public servant. That was when asked by a female acquaintance to buy her some candy. Then he choked his head and loudly replied: "There a woman in Memphis—my wife—who can use up all my pennies, nickels and dimes."
Whar He?'
A white visitor from the eftele East was insistent that Negroes in the delta country spoke a language all their own. The host agreed, jokingly asserting that the Choctaw speech was the same as the Choctaw Indian. The train had just stopped at Choctaw. The host spied a Negro peering in the car window at some one. What he," inquired the host, "Dar he," replied the Negro. The Easterner did not seek further proof. He was convinced. Young Girls Plough in Fields. At Mount Bayou, famous Negro town, the unusual spectacle is presented of a brown-skinned man in charge of the station as railroad and express agent. Girls of tender age ploughing in the fields when they should be in school and getting a fair chance in life.
No formalities are observed on the "jim Crow" coach on the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley Railroad. Everybody is supposed to say how laidback you are going to be, you are going and why are supposed to be information for public consumption. If not garrulous it is taken for granted you are ill or should be.
"Slipped Me."
Not only are you expected to talk much but also patronize the candy butcher. He shipped me the candy Harlem. He later responded attempts to sell me his wares, he said to the woman in the seat ahead of me, significantly eyeing me all the "some folks would buy something" but they jest can't afford it." Then I bought a copy of the Memoirs, but I had read it earlier in the day.
*such as rugs, blankets, and outer clothing should be given a thorough airing preferably in sunlight. The floors of the sick room, bathroom, and adjacent hallways should be scrubbed with soap an. water the door knobs, furniture, and other clothing wiped off with a moist cloth.
Measles.
Period of Isolation
The sick child must stay in the isolation room until at least 5 days after the infection. Other children who have not had measles must stay in the house until at least 14 days after the appearance of the rash on the first day.
Caution
Measles is not only highly contagious but is quite dangerous. In children under five years by pneumonia and death and often leads to tuberculosis. Babies should be kept away from crowded places when measles is prevalent and should not be taken by people who have been exposed to measles.
Whooping Cough.
Isolation
Period of Isolation
For the sick child, until at least 4 weeks (28 days) after the child began spasmoid coughing. For other children who have not had whooping cough, until at least 31 days after the child began spasmoid coughing.
Whooping Cough Vaccine
Consult your physician about giving vaccine to other children of the family.
Caution
This disease is highly contagious and frequently in infants and death in infants.
If You Ask Me
By RALPH MATTHEWS
Last week president Hoover appointed a crime commission. This was a good idea because, since crime must exist, it might as well be regulated according to law.
Since violating the law has become one of the leading industries in America, it no more than that any enterprise providing employment for so many people should receive the protection of the government.
The president could have saved a great deal of time and money because, in which case he would have a mixture in the underworld, he could have just turn the matter over to the war department.
With gang wars, massacres and killings all the vogue, there isn't any reason why gangland should not send an envoy to the peace conference. Crooks would send their own congressmen to the legislature, but they would find a politician honest enough to trust.
They say there is honor among thieves, but I don't believe they are a bit better than anybody else. The guy is getting so scared people have with one eye open to keep from robbing themselves.
The duty of the commission is to wipe out crime, but if they let the gangs fight it out for a little while longer they will wipe out themselves.
When the government passed the prohibition law it merely created commodity for gangsters. It took the liquor business out of the hands of dishonest saloon keepers and put in the hands of law-abiding bootleggers.
Making moonshine used to be a job in the highlands of Kentucky, but now it looks like everybody has moved to the mountains. They used to say that liquor has killed more men than bullets, but there are still people who liquor the score is just about even.
Of course it is lots better to die full of bullets than present day crooks don't give you a change to make your choice.
The crime commission can do several things to reduce crime. They can pass a law regulating the number of people who can be held each year and make him pay $50 or more a head for each victim over his quota.
They can set aside certain districts in which banks can be robbed and divide them up into twelve sections so the banks in one zone can recuperate their losses before their turn comes around again.
They can set up an arbitration court where the different gangs can thrash each other and manner and only resort to arms when no agreement can be reached.
They can pass hymn books and Bibles among the gangsters free of charge, and wait for the crooks to become converted and then send them all to Africa as missionaries.
They can have each crook fill out a questionnaire as to how much money he would be satisfied with, and then cross-appropriate this amount to be paid monthly in the form of a pension.
They can serve four years, draw a salary, give luncheons, meet with president and foquet, and about what they do back and forget about crime, which is just what they are going to do anyway—SO, WHY WORRY ABOUT THAT?

"Africans have much in common with us as wilt and wisdom expressed in their proverbs show. 15 is time for us to get away from the notion that they are in an inferior and barbaric state. In more than one sense, we Americans are more barbaric than they.—C. J. BENDER.

Needed: a Real
Press Association
welve newspaper men and 30 pro-communist annual session of the 30-year-old annual press association listing 206 paper articles give every "alleged" newspaper man in this country a jolt. According to the Associated Negro Press meeting in Milwaukee, what the newspaper lacker in numbers it made up said, and a good deal of this paper said, was supplied by Anthony O. Cagno, a Chicago banker-manufacturer-publisher, recent charges of a subsidized fee attracted attention. He fleaved Plaintiff Benjamin Davis for the plight into which the association indicted. But no sort of paper could bruise aside the bold fact that the press, though preaching co-operation and organization every week, and everything is its self one of its disorganized and incohesive groups. And the quicker that responsible newspaper men and women tell this fact and take it seriously, the start on a real organized development of the Fourth Estate.
Aside from the church and school, the Negro Press is the most potent force in the group activism. Every week it touches persons and organizations than any other agency. Its power, growing rapidly, is fraught with more pores or both good and evil, and it is hard to draw a clear line down more right and wrong, than ever the church or the school. There are single race mates which meet in some way the thinking each week. Such papers have mutual interests, in the very nature of things which make their organization necessary. They trouble the ambitions of men not only with the ambitions of men to control the organization, but also with the anthology of many newspaper men who should be vital involved in the organization of the group.
There is not a single week in the year when the balance sheet of any race newspaper will be updated for the newspaper field in all other groups has been developed by cohesive organization and alignments. Any little county in the state has attended press meet than the whole array of Negro newspapers had at Milwaukee. The question of making newspaper content and consequently free from what Mr. Oeront calls "subsidy" is dependent not only on what individual news papers do, but on what organizers do. The vital questions of advertision control as well as healthy and efficient news gathering in the four corners of the world is wrapped in cohesive organization and alignments.
Another vital fact which must be faced by the responsible newspaper men of the profession is that we have passed the day and time when a newspaper is full of some political or organization kite. And certainly it should be apparent that the best way to kill press association would be to make it a stepping stone to ambition other than the development of the field of journalism it
Mr. Overton and a
Subsidized Press.
This brings us naturally to a discussion of Mr. Anthony Overton's charge of "subsidy" and his organization. Some people feel that a proper development of the present body would be the proper thing we can set forth a more practical policy of general development.
There are but few Negro journals which by virtue of the fact that they are making their own purely as newspapers or thereby see the side side advantage could qualify according any definition as free from "sandy" No doubt. Mr. Overton's paper, marked off to profit in a successful business price, would find hard to qualify.
Our own idea of an unsubstantial paper would be one so free that any influence that it could have bits and bites on the public and on appearing on the face of the earth; that its objective would be solely the collecting and interpretation of news events and events of the world, and so responsive to the dynamics of public mass sentiment and real appeal as to command the attention of the attentive and complete people in society. Every written word in such a paper would be either collected, written or edited by trained men and women, and all influences that they would be free to make a picture, true in outline and content, every news happening and an unbiased interpretation of its content.
Such a paper would hold its own in openms to even a shade of properly expressed, from the most radical communist to the most nonpolitical, religious, social or economic alignment it would bound to respect that it could interpret fairly and without any event in the light of its own upward progress. Since all the problems of cooperative news gathering, advertising, development and circulation among Negro journals have been overcome efforts of the white press, let it be hoped that not only will stand in the way of a national press association a year, and that leading papers will improve that they align themselves with this effort.

the country has been brought to light following the murder of Frances Hartsfield, who is the ninth victim on a tentative list of more than 100, who are scheduled to meet their doom, according to the police.
Mabilda Redmond, alleged brains and guiding spirit of the murder trust, is in the custody of the police charged with planning the murders. Her arch conspirator, Nathan Gorman, is being held by county authorities with a wholesale roundup to follow.
FIVE OTHERS HELD.
Deputy Sheriff George Harris white, announced late this week that from information obtained, he had sufficient evidence to hold five other suspects, and may be able to connect them with actual murders before the investigation ends. Those being held, are: Cruder, Tjeffrey Jefferson. Paul Jefferson, Robert Mitchell and Garfield Glemmons.
TOOK OUT INSURANCE.
The Redmond woman has been charged with conspiring to end the lives of 75 persons upon whom she issued insurance policies which were discovered in a pile under the mattress of her bed.
News of this discovery spread through the city rapidly and resiliently, and the woman has the colored section been so thoroughly aroused because not only did the woman have policies on the lives of many, but others were considering accepting her offered offer.
SEVEN KNOWN DEATHS.
Three years ago Mrs. Redmond's husband died suddenly, and the general belief was that he had been poisoned. She carried a sizeable insurance policy on his life.
She was also the nephew also died suddenly, and it was reported that he, too, had been the victim of poisoning. His aunt carrie, three or four girls, living at the Redmond home, are said to have met sudden deaths. Early Sunday morning, the body of Frances Hartsfield, a nine-year-old girl from Washington, Mrs. Redmond had four policies on her, ranging from $75 to $400.
BROTHER WAS EXECUTIONER.
Crandall, who is a brother of Mrs.
Redmond, is said to have executed
her orders in causing the deaths.
Officers have been hard at work
on the case ever since the body of
Frances Hartfield was discovered.
One of the prisoners arrested by
Hartfield in Pitney Bay, said
that Crandall had killed the wom-

MRS. ROSENWALD DEAD
CHICAGO, (A.N.P.)—The Rosenwald Fund has authorized a gift of $65,500 to the Little Rock, Ark. school and $50,000 to the industrial high school of Winston-Salem, N.C. In each case local public school authorities have voted to build a high school costing not less than $25,500 and would have been of the stereotyped class found in the south but not the kind regarded as standard by the association of Universities and Colleges. This association has never been able to grade southern colored high schools because of their confused and ill-organized teaching were, as a rule, not designed for practical use after graduation and the teaching was not expert. There were no industrial courses in the schools and dead languages were more the vogue than the modern French or Spanish required of many teachers today. Each case Fund directors volunteered to add $50,000 and $65,000 respectively to the original sum provided the school board would agree to give a like amount and to include extra courses favored by the Fund.

"A pamphlet under the title "Findings Concerning Negroes," has just been published from the pen of Louis K. McMillan, of the circulation of the AFRO-AMERICAN. Mr. McMillan plans to go abroad in July for a year in a German university, to study philosophy and literature. The pamphlet contains some light on the Shaw university situation, where Mr. McMillan was at one time the head of the feature articles written for the AFRO-AMERICAN during the fall of 1827. Under captions entitled, "Durin's University," Hampton, Charlottesville, Danville, Lynchburg, Richmond, Norfolk, Baltimore and Philadelphia. he discusses the racial situation in these cities. He publishes an unpublished article Mr. McMillan says, "Baltimore has a class mania. It is truly a sort of insanity because barring a few distant cases, the town is full of people who have been exposed to education, stress too much the mechanics of education, goates, seriously heavy and deep looking animals, and sounding expressions, and exclusiveness.
"To educate in Baltimore has come to mean physical stiffness, mental cloudiness and general jackassery, all of them, and all might, and they will fight for their rights around the card table even where the best of friends are in opposition."

KNOXVILLE COLLEGE
GETS $700,000 FUND
KNOXVILLE COLLEGE
GETS $700,000 FUND
Completes $500,000 Campaign and Gets Gift from Arbuckle Millions.
ESTATE JUST SETTLED
KNOXVILLE, TENN. — Knoxville College announces at the annual Commencement Exercises this year the completion of the campaign for a half million college scholarships and the additional bequest of $150,000 just received from the Arbuckle estate which will raise the total permanent endowment fund to $100,000. The $150,000 Arbuckle estate comes as Knoxville share of a million dollar bequest to United Presbyterian colleges. It is the largest gift ever made by an individual to the education of the nonmonetary and is divided equally among six colleges. Miss Christina Arbuckle, the donor was one of the well known family of Arbuckles of Pittsburgh that made a donation to the University of February 2 127, but the estate was only recently settled because of legal difficulties. With the completion of the half million dollar donation which was first received in 1926, Knoxville receives from the General Education Board $125,000, the stipulation being that the school raise $735,000. This amount has been more than raised.
It is interesting to note that ten years ago Knoxville had only twelve thousand dollars in permanent endowment funds and that was for the school. Today, in addition to the endowment, the school has buildings and equipment valued at more than $500,000. A fine new gymnasium with latest equipment for physical education has been added much to the efficiency of the school, making possible physical education work for women as well as men and offering of credit courses in department. Knoxville has with its recent gifts now has a total of $650,000 in productive endowment and $50,000 in annuities, all in addition to the $80,000 given last year by Dr. C. H. Announcer, who is the chairman which is to be used to provide scholarships for worthy students.

Atlanta Mayor Kills Sudden Segregation Bill
ATLANTA—Despite the fact that several segregation measures have been declared unconstitutional here, the City Council without notice has a new segregation measure last week.
The measure does not say white and colored may not live in the same block but cannot intermary, are forbidden to live in the same neighborhood.
The measure declared in part. The city it ordained in and city it Atlanta, that in order to preserve general welfare, peace, racial integrity, morals and social order of the City of Atlanta, it shall be enforced. It shall be a residence any building on any street between intersecting streets where the majority of residents on such streets are occupied by whites, or a residence any building on intermary; provided that nothing in this ordinance shall affect the right, existing at the time of the passage of this ordinance in any person, to use any such building
The measure carries with it a fine not exceeding $200 or a sentence in the workhouse of 30 days. Mayor Ragsdale at first approved the ordinance when passed Monday of last week. He localized it and vetoed it upon the advice upon City Attorney James L. Mayson.
"I can see no good in passing this ordinance which we know will be attacked in the courts and we have no chance to win."

Although many Negroid characters were included in French plays they were generally portrayed by white actors with their features made up to resemble Negroes. On the play, "Leonard," based on Mme. DuBarry's "Loves," Theophile Gautier, famous poet and critic, says in his stage bulletin of May 3. 1847:
"The part of little black Zamore, who does nothing but pour out champagne, was not taken by the usual painted boy. The manager has found the most exquisite little Negro boy conceivable. Wasn't it the simplest thing? Still it is the first time it has been seen a real Negro boy on the stage. Master Zamore is to dightled with his beautiful costume all gold and embroidered that he arrives at the theater before curtain time to luxuriate over his finery."
The success of Josephine Baker, Noble Sissle, Florence Mills and numberless other luminaries who have captured the hearts of the French would be quite a shock to Gautier were he writing today.

Five minutes before the lanky, colored star strode upon the stage, not even G. W. Winchester, white manager of G. W.

NEW YORK—It looks like a long jump from a little ramshackle cabin in Chattanooga, Tenn., to the leading lady in New York, the musical Caroline, but that was the captors of Miss Bessie Smith, in spite of the fact that her stay there as the star of Maceo Pinkard's "Pansy" was short lived.
Although New York critics failed to condone the production in its entirety and panned it unmercifully they were quite liberal in their record of the industry in their record of twenty years ago packed her belongings and ran away from home to join... show.
Father Was A Preacher
She was only eleven years old then
and her singing and dancing pro-
clivities kept her in constant hot
water with her elderly and church loving
parents, who in those days that
singing ragtime and doing
turkey trot, or what she called
shaking the hoof of those days, was
a swinger that one was headed for
a wedding. Bessie's father, to be
exact, was inclined toward the ministry
and conducted a small mission in
Tennessee.
Joined Ma Rainey
For two years Bessie, who was large
for her age, traveled with tent shows,
that were all the rage in the South-
land then, even as they are today.
Her singing made her a juvenile favorite
and she became one of the stars of
Ma Rainey's Shows.
Ma Rainey, mother (or is it grand-
mother?) of the blues was a pioneer
among female entertainers and has
probably staged more present-day
artists in their way to stardom than any other woman.

New York Had First Race Theatre, 1821
NEW YORK.—Although Ira Aldrich was a great colored actor, playing Othello in England as early as 1789, the first attempt to establish a Negro theatre in New York came in 1821, writes G. A. Leonard in the New York Herald-Tribune.
The article, summarized by the N.A.A.C.P., says that one Hewlett was star of this earliest Negro troupe in New York, which was located in the African Grove at Mercer and Bleecker streets.
Next came the Hyar sisters, who flourished about 1870 in Reynerty. In 1897 Lew Payton attempted an all-colored version of "Uncle Tom's Cabin."
The beginning of the present vogue of Negro players and plays began between 1901 and 1904, says Mr. Leonard, and with the efforts of the brothers Salem, Whitney and Terry Salem wrote and produced "The Ex-President, The Mermaid," and then "Black Patti's Troubled Green founded the Pekin Stock company in Chicago which gave first opportunity to such players as Charles Gilpin, Miller and Lyles, Lieut. Brynn, Erynne Hogan, and others. In the musical field Mr. Leonard speaks of Bert Williams and George Keating in "Shuffle Along." The total number of great theatrres, Mr. Leonard says, is 100, most of them alternating between musical and dramatic stock.
to Miss Smith herself but we pick up the threads of her career again when she made her appearance as a featured entertainer at the 81 and 81 Theatres' at Atlanta, Ga. where she reigned supreme for two years. From there she went to New York just after the blues had been made a salable commodity by Mamie Smith, and began camming own tunes for the Gorgeous Phonograph Company. Weds Phila. Polleman
Just like a dime novel reads the story of the star, whose name in private life is Mrs. Jack Gee, because into her life there came romance in the person of Gentleman Jack Gee, a six-foot, broadshouldered fellow, who was a member of Philadelphus the wife of Wanda Gee, imprint of the blues sincerer he gave up his badge to become her manager as well as her husband

Wagner's "Flying Dutchman," Excellently Rendered by Superb Student Cast.
A new trail in amateur theatricals was blazed last Friday and Saturday nights when the students of Frederick Douglass high school presented "The Flying Dutchman," Richard Wagner's romantic opera, in three acts in the school auditorium to large and appreciative audiences.
The opera, the first of its kind ever attempted by local students was directed by W. Llewellyn Wilson, instructor of music in the public schools. Singing of unusual quality combined with real dramatic acting, georgeous costumes, lighting and theatrical stage design all coordinated to the offering one long to be remembered in local music realms.
Long Stars
Avon Long, in the title role eclipsed his previous performances in high school presentations Saturday when he spilled on the title role of a new artiste. While at the lengthy role that he had to fill made his words inaudible his wide range and easy command of his rich voice left nothing to be de-
Opening with the rather picturesque scene of a Norwegian vessel showing in the background and the ship of the "Dutchman," with her bright red sails and massthe opera moved to the many colorful scenes which the juvenile players are permitted to run the effects of their emotions.
Voices Well Trained
The parts were well cast, and the voices excellently trained for the delicate parts. Both the principals and the chorus thrust themselves with heartedness and the role of each act was followed by wild aplause from the auditors. William Howard, as Dolain, captain of the Norwegian vessel, easily skared honors with Long for his clear and effective singing and the act.
Double Cast
Too much cannot be said for the excellent work of the orchestra in their mastery of the difficult scores and the technical brilliance of Wilson for his training of both the vocal and instrumental units of the presentation.
The performance was given by separates, the two evenings. On Friday night the outstanding performances were given by Misses Dorothy Green, Alles Thomas, and Masters Jeremy Green, Lawrence and James Gaskins, Augustus Knox, and a large chorus.

The shooting occurred when Thomas snatched, a riding quirt from the horse, a little altercation. Incensed over the act, the German shot and perhaps fatally wounded Thomas with thousands looking on. The affair almost resulted in a serious panic as spectators leaped to cover. German is held in the local jail, without bail, pending the outcome of injuries.

CARRIES 50 ACTORS
Owner of Two Shows Has 50 Performers Each.
A bitter war being waged by minstrel organizations in the Southland as the summer season opens was revealed by Slim Russell, comedian with the Georgia Smart, Set Minstrels, in a letter to the AFRO this week.
Russell's letter says in part:
"The F. S. Walcott 'Rabbit Foot Minstrels', and the George W. Quine 'Huntington Mighty Minstrels', both Huntington Mighty Minstrels, both Port Gibson, Miss, are trying to commall of the best out-of-door actors and musicians on the two shows this season.
"Each of the shows will carry 50 people. The other shows in the so-called are only carrying 35 performers.
"The reason for carrying fifty people on each show is that it will enable them to obtain all of the best talent and reduce the opposition of those things is to close all of those things like Jack Goldberg's $1,000 guarantee, so I am slicking on my nest.
"By this method they were able to sidetrack the Alabama Minstrels from the actors left to join the Walcott Company. I thought I was bettering myself when I joined Jack Goldberg.

she needs to be commended on her gigantic undertaking. She has a rich voice, and sings with warmth and color.

From The Front Row
From The Front Row
By RALPH MATTHEWS
Not so many moons ago I was taken severely to task by no less a personage than Irvin C. Miller himself, impresario of endless musical comedies, for having the audacity to print uncompensatory things about one of his editions of the *Brown Skin Girl* novel, the offering I did not like, and I said so in so many words—too many. I was given to understand. Mr. Miller like most producers, for he was a review show for newspapers are supposed to say nice things, or keep their mouths—or let us say typewriters—quiet. He bases his contention on a claim that shows, because no writer knows enough about shows to criticise them. Newspaper writers, says Mr. Miller, should merely remind the reader of bad, and make no attempt to be "smarty" and pick it to pieces and find fault with something that they cannot do themselves.
Every Knock a Boost
Just as the race artist looks to Broadway as his goal—thanks to the success of "Shuffle Along," "Blackbirds," and other long run shows—he is a master of the critics and allows them to be the criterion for the course he will follow Negro theatricals have outgrown the stage where the reviewer finds himself. In over-night hodge podge "revue" is a world beater. In his climb toward perfection, the performer must expect to get an occasional lambasting or it, because it will prick his ecstasy and urge him on to better things.
Opinions Vary
Among the Broadway critics we find two schools of thought. Heywood Broun, veteran critic, writing in the Nation, lambets the pussyfooting attitude of the playwright who feels that they are becoming too refined in their scribblings. He thumbs his nose at those who are too polite and says that critics of today when they want to be real mean say naughty things. X was DÉQUATE in the role of the butler, or words to that effect." If an actress can walk across the stage without stumbling and breaking her neck over the furniture, they will be hard, he says. He urges harsher dealing with plays and players.
Should Entertain
On the other hand Robert Garland, a Baltimore importation to the metropolitan area, wrote the fraternity's writing in Editor and Publisher, a craft journal, contends that the office of the critic is chiefly to entertain his readers. He should have written the article, the investment value contained in his article than to criticism that would tend to make patrons attend or remain away. He contends, whether a critic like or a show or doesn't like it. He refers to the adverse criticism received by "Abie's Trish Rose." Every reader should have the pleasure not last a week, but it enjoyed the

longest run on Broadway of any show.
This citation probably gives Mr. Miller the edge on the argument. He is not the only one whoions are evenly divided, I hasten, however, to refute the contention that no newspaper man has sense enough to criticise a show. He is not the only one who said: "I have attended nearly every show on Broadway, and spent my life in theatricals, and I do not feel that I am a critic of this show." probably explained by the announcement made this week by Dr. Donald A. Laird, professor of psychology at the University of this mental survey in which he declares that the vaudeville actor after a series of tests, is given a rating of from 1 to 10, and the accountants are given a rating of from 18 to 20. This gives newspaper writers exactly four points higher on the intelligence scale than actors in the same category, qualified to judge shows. More power to the press.

Money from Services of "Men from Mars," Led Father to His Death.
STRANGE CHARACTERS
Writer Recalls Strange People Exhibited by Barnum.
By RALPH D. MATTHEWS
That tragedy sometimes follows the glitter and glamor of the circus was revealed this week when the 175 pounds of Eko and Koi, wreaked freaks of the Ringling Brothers-Barnum and Bailey combined shows, were brought to light this week.
The strange men, weighing about 175 pounds each, of Albumin characteristics with small, squinted, blue eyes and hairof a long yellow matted substance, have been featured in the last fifteen years, where they were exploited as the men from Mars.
Odd Characters
Millions of people throughout the country marvelled at these odd characters, but it was not until October 1981 that the first Roanoke, Virginia, that they were recognized as the spins of Mrs. Celvin Muse, an old resident of that city, who declared that her sons had been never heard from them again. The 2 men, who are said to be imbeciles, caused by their prenatal affliction and by the added fact that after they were born, the cast was rendering them eunuchs, with the property of the circus, living without pay until last year when Mrs. Muse claimed her sons and demanded that she be remunerated for their ser-
Colorful Life
that the colorful life of these queer men was still destined to tragedy was revealed by the fact that the money they brought luxury to which they were unacquainted, and the husband and father, Calvin Muse, for years a bullying characer around the Virginia city, who overstrata of society took the more bought an automobile and other luxuries and became more overbearing and brutish in his associations. Last June, during a fight over a wounded man, one of the most atrocious murders ever recorded in that city. It is said that his whole chest and abdomen were laid open with the knife of his servant, Worthington, who serving a penitentiary term at the present time.
The revelation that these men were American Negroes instead of importers of the second of his kind to follow in the wake of the circus in recent years.
Another evidence of the genius in the showmanship of P. T. Barnum, the inventor of Zip, is that "There is a sucker born every minute," came to light at the death of Zip, the "What is it?" freak, who turned out to be a Negro farmer of the 1860s. He was an eliminative little Negro with an elongated head, his hair was brought to a sharp point at the top, and he was dressed in a skin fitting suit of fur. He was a man of great intellect that made it seem that they all ran into ones. He died at the age of 90 after spending half of his lifetime amid the spangles and blare of the
Spotted Family
Last year, the Ringling Brothers combination carried with them a Negro troop known as the spotted family of Madagascar, composed of two women and a child, whose ebony hued skin was white as the fairest Saxon. While they made a pretense at being of foreign lands, their evasive answers to foreign languages led to the belief that they were merely an American suffering from Bright's Disease.
Several years ago the same show carried with it a peculiar character, a cross between a woman and a man with long course hair that was a thick mass of natural black hair. Its arms and hands were flexible, turning both forward and backward as a piece of rubber. This creature was kept in chains and the man's tent depicted a scene of American sailors capturing the wild ape-woman from the heart of the African jungles, in which several of the captors were said to have lost their lives before the atrocity was brought to an end. One of this freak may never be known.
Arion Glee Club in Recital
PHILADELPHIA, PA.—The annual recital of the Arion Ice Club provided to be one of the noteworthy musical evenings, when a large crowd of enthusiastic and appreciative music-lovers filled the Y.W.C.A. auditorium, the Arion Ice Club of Johnson City, was assisted by the Premier Double Quartet. Two numbers on the program drew forth much applause, the dues in which the audience was applauded, in which applied Arthur Nichols. The other number that the audience had sufficient reason to appreciate, was the singing of "Un di, se ben ramentem quarto," in which applied Miss Helen Fontelela, Miss Lillian Garnet, Roswell Brown and Malcolm Polindexer. The Arion Ice Club occupies a place in the city's musical life, and the program was a wholly enjoyable affair.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, June 1, 1929
The Regent has split the week between two of the year's best screen releases in Monta Bell's "The Bellamy Trial" and "The Million Dollar Collar," featuring the wonder dog, Rin Tin Tin. In "The Bellamy Trial," the patrons will see a picture that will remind them of the famous Hall-Mills trial, which twice occupied the attention of the nation. Mr. Bell, the producer, has even gone so far as make one of his characters resemble in appearance, the Willie Stevens of that actual tragedy. The court scenes which are recorded on the Vitapath with striking clearness, so realistic that the tense moments and suspense can be felt, by the audience as though they were actually present at the trial.
While the finger of suspicion points to everybody in the cast it is not until the trial is completed that the audience gets an inking who the guilty party is and this from a most unexpected source.
In "The Million Dollar Collar," the present craze for crook chasing drama is satisfied, and gives Rinty a chance to prove his heroism, in that and other lines. He is first seen as the companion of an apparently blind beggar. He goes with him into the jewelry store, where the man steals a valuable necklace, concealing it in the collar of the dog. In a hasty effort to escape, the "beagar" enters a car driver, by accomplices the cliff on the back, topping on the cliff. Rinty is tied to the machine. A young down-and-outer rescues him, collar and "all, and trudges on."
The plot thickens when the two reach a mountain hotel, where the girl who is to be the centre of the story lives, in the care of a man who is an aid of the thieves and wishes to marry the girl. Both the youth and Rinty become her admirers and protectors. And when the boy is searched and grilled by the thieves for the collar which he has taken from the dog's neck on account of its heaviness, but without knowing that it contains the gems—the big business begins!
The Carey theatre presents for the week of June 3, a striking program which begins Monday with Monte Blue in "Shadows in the South Seas," a picture which besides containing a beautiful love theme, is one of the best educational pictures of the year. Life in the islands, the workings of the pearl divers, the queer customs of the darker races, are all portrayed vividly in the unusual screen drama.
Karl Dane, the elongated star of films, appears with Martha Sleeper in "The Voice of the Storm," a thrilling mystery story, built around a terrific storm, so accurately recorded by the eye of the camera that cold chills are felt as the lightning flashes and thunder roars, which will hold the screamers back. Each chowboy star with the most beautiful girl on the screen in the persons of Ken Maynard and Virginia Brown Faire, will be seen in "The Canyon of Adventure," a western thriller, Wednesday.
"Stolen Love," the story of a girl who defied all the social rules and dared to live her own life, furnishes a revelation of the hard work of this woman of today. This will be shown Thursday. "Taking A Chance," and "Plunging Hoofs" will complete the week's program Friday and Saturday, respectively.
Each day's program will be enhanced by serials, excellent comic shots and also newsreels.

Royal Theatre
Stage Review
THE ROYAL
While the offering at the Royal theatre is nothing to write home and the folks about it, it has one redeeming virtue in that. It is different from the average stage menu, that Baltimore theatre-goers have had serve! to them during the past few monts without variation. Whether that difference is an improvement or not is all a matter of personal taste in things theatrical. To me it is a relief. The offering is named, "The Vila Bloumith," a playlet that approaches the old melodrama of former days.
While the producer is handicapped by a lack of real dramatic talent to assist him, the sure-fire hokum lines like "I don't care what she has done she is 'still my chi-1-i-1-i-d' and 'Mother Ive strayed' from the amazonian path, but thank Gawd. I returned in time to save my sister from a similar fate," seem to strike a responsive chord in the hearts of the sanctimonious Pennsylvania, avenie yokels who still retain a bit of hayseed in their hair. A chorus of six young women do their bit to make it pleasant for the tired business man and while they are not such a relief to the patron who thinks his chorus girls should be seen and not heard.
Travis Tucker puts over a parody or two which goes over well and then disappears for the; the rest of the evening. Dinah Scott appears in blackface to good advantage. Anita Theophile is by far the most entertaining personage in the cast in her portrayal of a little country lassie and Billy Petway gets a good dance routine off his chest. Mae Wilson, a producer in her own right, appears as the wayward daughter who turns out to be not so wayward after all. The picture fax has been excellent all week.

The biggest problem effecting orphan children comes from parents unwilling to shoulder responsibility for caring for their offspring, Paul T. Blesser, executive secretary of the Henry Watson Children's Aid Society, told the Colored Case Work Conference Wednesday.
"Recent surveys," he said, "have shown that only 8 per cent of the children in orphanages orphaned by phantoms in the true sense of the term. The other 92 per cent have either one or both parents living and it is with this group that we have our greatest benefit because of: poor health or low income to take care of their children, but it is the group whose inability comes from the lack of short sensibilities which gives us the greatest concern."
Institutions
He expressed it to his opinion that care in institutions was perhaps the easiest way out for those who have to provide foster homes, but that it is not the only home where conditions more nearly approximate the ordinary home life gives the best results. The Case Work Conference which considers and advises upon the different aspects of the Family Welfare Association and other agencies in the city closed for the season and will resume its meetings early in the fall. The officers of the Case Work Conference are the largest, group in the city are, Mrs Sara B. Mason, chairman; Dr. Thomas I. Brown, vice-chairman; and Mrs Lillian A. Lottier, secretary.

LOS ANGELES, Cal. — An employee in the manston of a leading Hollywood movie director tells a tale, involving five well-known colored girls, that outdid Earl Carroll's now famous or infamous wine bath. She states that her employer, who is a bachelor, was accustomed to staging wild parties in his imagination to provide something unusual for the entertainment of his guests.
She Stuck Around

At the given hour by the balcony she saw the balustrade she saw. Her employer twelve, seated at a circular table surrounding a large imitation of a French milliner's hat-box. Strings from the lid of this box led to each of the men's places. At a signal from a great gryn stuck by the host, the man led the lad, who led from the lid of the hat-box to his place at the table and the lid opened open.
Girls All Nude
At first the box appeared to be empty, but lo, and behold, the box really inclosed an elevator from the floor below and slowly manipulated by some hidden handles to view five perfectly nude colored girls, all of whom Catherine recognized at once even amid the dim vari-colored lights in the incense weighted room.
All the girls were supposed to be skateboarding in such a spectacle and three of them were what termed society girls. Two of them were well-known entertainers capable of making $100 or more a week legitimately and another whom she knows as a great deal of movie work will recently, when she is said to be practically barred.
Stepping from the hat-box the five girls seated themselves on the laps of five of the guests and the tivities began.
The parties frequently lasted until next day, but the maid being off watch, did not remain to see the development or finish of this one.

Charles W. Main, White G.
O.P. Leader, Makes Charge.
What is regarded as an insult to colored citizens of Baltimore was read into the court records from a brief filed by Charles W. Main, white, attorney in the segregation suit of Ida E. Leland, vs. Pauline Mayers, both white, which was heard in Circuit Court before Judge Dennis, Friday.
In his brief, the lawyer essayed to justify the action of his client in moving from the neighborhood of the 1200 block of Mulberry street, and renting her property to colored people thereby violating a neighborhood covenance. Mr. Main, who pursues to be a lawyer, and on time Chairman City Republican Committee, said that since colored residents had moved in to adjoining blocks conditions were intolerable to such an extent that they had to accompany her little child to and from school because Negroes infested the streets. She found it necessary to move. Mrs. Mayers declared that she would be able to rear her child properly in a Negro neighborhood.
Judge Comments
Judge Dennis, who presided at that hearing, was forced to comment on the blanket indictment of Negros of the section in which he killed millions of the city now reside. He intimated that he was reluctant to believe that Negros in general were as bad as Mr. Main would have the court order on the case by a reporter for the AFRO. Judge Dennis, however, refused to make further comment on the situation. He is holding the case for advisement to be concluded on June 4.
Broke Agreement
Mrs. Maver is said to have violated a neighborhood agreement made with him, not to sell or rent colored people.
The agreement was made in 1920. Mrs. Mays declared that when she purchased the property at Mulberry street she informs information about her settlement and when she moved out and rented her property to colored people she did not know that the war was not over. The area already neighborhood and colored residents and the 1200 block is the only one in the section intact although although and slides on the 1200 block is already occupied by colored people. Mrs. Lester makes an inunction restraining Mrs. Mays from renting or selling her property to Negroes or persons of African descent.

WOMEN WOULD HAVE BLAMED MEN--MILLER
If They Had Written Bible, Says Minister, Story Would Have Been Different.
God Has Regulated Matter of
"If the first five books of the Bible had been written by women there is reason to believe that man would have been blamed for most of the trouble and misfortune now laid at the door of womanhood." Thus declared Rev. Levi Miller, at the worship of Mt. Horan Baptist and Unity Christian Churches Sunday.
From the text, Matt. 10:40, and subject: "The Better Part," the minister argued that care of the home, concern of the culinary elements and hospitality in general was good, but to learn of God's goodness at the expense of that would be better.
Official Status
"Women as a rule have small official status in our churches, and yet I doubt very seriously if any church could function properly for 24 hours without her presence and help.
"When things go awry, man becomes peeved, fretted and, it is right here, the female exegete, witness, calmness and orbearance. Many a desperate husband in despair, has been inspired by the Godlike disposition: of the wife whose cool and serene manner in time of trouble makes us marvel.

However, if your writing is like either one of these specimens you may be sure that you have fine mechanical talent that should be cultivated.

Study the signature of Charles P. Steinmetz very carefully. He was the most outstanding electrical engineer this country has ever had. He rose from poverty to the greatest place in his field, not because of "pull" but because he cultivated and used his natural talent.
But the most natural talent. It may be for mechanical work. Instead it may be for the stage, or for an artistic career. But no matter what, your handwriting tells the story, just as completely and accurately. It does not matter whether or Charles P. Steinmetz.

"Then what happened—who locked the vault?" "Well, I had put all the other furs in the vault and I asked Mr. Timothy should I lock it and he said 'Yes. So I slammed the door and shoved the handle over." "Did you turn the dial?" "Ir-a-why, yes sir, yes sir, I'm sure I did. I always do you know." "Did you have any conversation with anyone after you locked the door of the vault?" "Let me see . . . Oh yes, Speed started kiddin' me an' I think he told a raw joke while he was wiping his hands." "When did Mr. Alvin leave?" "A few minutes after I locked this vault."
"Let me see . . . why, I don't now just when he left but I know he had gone when I went in to sweep the shipping room."
"You said you helped in the shipping and you left. Do you frequently help speed take boxes to the elevator and then to a truck and to the freight house or express company?"
"I always help him when we have to take stuff to the freight house, which ain't often because most of our stuff is sent by express; and whenever there's a box to go by express, I help move it over to the elevator."
"Now, said Darrington, changing the subject, 'do you know whether Timothy is a highflyer or not? Did he ever mention going to rabebars?'"
"Hal Ha Hal!" the porter laughed heartily, "Mr. Timothy ain't that kind—he's bitter on the women, although he's married."
"Probably because of it," the detective mused to himself, and then aloud: "what time do you usually send out your shirt here?" and then a third clock.
"What is it usually packed and made ready?"
"In the mornings."
"Were there any boxes that you didn't get off the afternoon of the day?"
"Yes, we had quite a lot of stuil that day, so there were two or three big-boxes we left until the next af-
Darrington stroked his chin; meditatively, "Well," he snapped out with a tone of finality. "let's get back," Returning to the office, the selective found, "Mr. Darrington, and Mr. Darrington, instantly awaitting him, each with his paper covered with writing, Darrington read each sheet carefully, eyeing the group from time to time. Albis Perfect When he had seen with them all the ambitions, "Well, all of you seem to have ironclad albi, so I guess it was an outside job." As he said this he watched Alvin. Timothy and Speed closely. Then turning to the president he informed him that the employees could return to their work. When they were all outside he turned to Alvin and said quietly, "Mr. Alvin I suppose you won't mind my questioning your cash, will you?" "Not at all," replied the president, though evidently annoyed with the answer.
When Mr. Timothy, a short, slender, nervous man with scant hair, watery eyes that peered from behind thick spectacles, entered the room Darrinton asked, "Did you direct Johnson, the porter, to sweep up the glass under the back window when you came in on the morning of March the 14th?" Timothy watched Closely "Who came to think of it?" the little cashier relied, "there wasn't but one piece of glass on the floor and I threw that in the trash box myself." "Who was the next person you saw after you unlocked the door on the 14th?"
"Well, let-me—see. Oh yes, I unlocked the door and came in, and right away I saw the window smashed. I went right back there and picked up that piece of glass. Then I opened the safe, as usual, and that."
The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday,
when I discovered that the coats were gone. I heard a hammering in the shipping room and I knew Speed must be there so I called him. Nobody else had arrived at the luna. A few minutes later the colored boy came. "Thank you, Mr. Timothy. That call be all."
When the cashier had retired, Darrington turned to Mr. Alvin, saying, "I wish you would let me, see your express shippers for the 18th week."
"Why certainly," the president replied, wonderingly, reacting for his telephone he asked Mr. Timothy to bring them in.
No Clue Yet. Darrington studied the orders carefully. There he found the 13th, mentioning four boxes to various firms and that of the 14th, listing three. He handed the orders back to Timothy, and waved his dismissal. Evidently he saw them.
Rising he said, "Well. Mr. Alvin thanks ever so much for your assistance. This looks like a clear case of outside robbery. You can see the finger in the window and then were able to hit on the combination of your vault. . . . "But," interrupted the president, "how did they get down through the door of the penthouse? How past the night watchman, to say nothing of unlocking the door of this shop without disturbing the burglar alarm?" Darrington is Puzzled. "I think there must have let themselves down with a rope from the roof to the fire escape and thence to the ground. At any rate there are a lot of loose ends I've got to gather up, but I'm sure it was an accident."
Outside, the Negro sleuth hailed a taxicab and had himself driven, rapidly to the express office. He meditated closely with the manager and himself with his mission known. Upon his request the manager permitted him to examine the express shipping orders of Holden, the 13th and 14th. There were the originals of the two orders listing seven boxes to as many firms.
"Mr. Simpson," said Darlington, turning to the manager, "may I talk the driver who called at the Holden Company for these boxes?" "Why yes," the manager replied "Fortunately, I can bring from now on." The manager for his secretary he her call the driver.
Driver Caught
Carahan, a tall, shaggy-headed, lantern-jawed Irishman with shifty blue eyes, entered questioningly. Darrington badmud he be seated, then turning suddenly and whispering his blue automatic, "I'll fit into your pocket. Out of another pocket he drew dargling handcuffs. "Fut 'em up, Carahan," he hissed, "and turn around." Before the astonished eyes of the express manager, he handcuffed you, and does this mean—how do you get that way?" the man blustered. "Now listen," Darrington grated, "you don't tell what you want with that other the Holden one—you took the Holden Folden Company on the afternoon of March 14th, and for which you received no order now gave any receipt, you're going to be in prison for the next ten or fifteen years. Driver Gives Clue. At these words the man sprang as if shot and before he could control his wits, he babbled. In how the did you find that out? In how the vizified his mistake, he bit his lip un-
"Sit down," Darrington commanded, with a smile. Then turning to the astonished Mr. Simpson, he said, "Pardon me, old man, for using your office for this purpose, you should be avoided. You have heard, your boss admitted that he took a box away from the Holden Company of which you nor that company has any record. That box is am positive, contained those fishinchilla coats. Now let us use your coatings. In a moth, you were connected with Mr. Sanders of the Safety Insurance Company.
Speed Arrested
Still keeping his automatic trained on the big driver, he directed Sanders to have the police arrest. Jim Spez and bring him over to the Express office.
A half hour later, Speed, accompanied by two detectives, headquartered and the plump little president entered the office. Turning to one of the officers, Darrington requested him to

SUAVE and genteel with skin like golden sunshine and hair of ebony blackness that was so oreshed as smooth as a woman's, that was Waier as I saw him first. I was crossing the park on my way home from high school. I was in early May. The passion of spring was in my blood and in the air. I wanted to loiter, but I knew that I dared to loiter when wasda had come to the town of my getting home on time from school. Already I had used up almost all my margin of minutes out of the two days I wasda came to it, was amply sufficient to walk the six blocks between my home and the school.
"I beg your pardon?" A thrill ran through my whole tensed young body as the handsome stranger an elaborate bobblehead involuntion a narrow bridle path in front of him. He smiled at me. I thought it the most winning smile the lips of man had ever produced. Hot blood mantled my brown cheeks and coursed through my veins. Lambent, could not speak. I sensed the missions held me dumb. Only a tremulous little smile quivered on my lips and in my eyes. I was so impressed by the romance of the chance meeting that I did not stop to think of the danger of what new girls at the hands of strange men.
I felt his dark eyes scanning my round young body. It was almost as if I stood naked before him. Soft skin was something I was something so keenly penetrating in the quality of his gaze that they seemed to strip my fuzzy garments from me as they settled my feet and faced down through the transparency of my chiffon blouse over my young adolescent forty. The casual but thorough dress that I would suit for the whole thing though it takes many words to tell of it) he went on speaking. "Could you direct me to a good restaurant? I want soft and soft strings and set them throbbing to the tune of the sunlight and romance of spring. I am a stranger in your little city," he said, the intoxicating smile still on his lips.
The park was deserted but for him and me. In Oakdale there was no one-to-lunge afternoon. Everybody was busy but the people down on the river flats and they never came up to the park. Their business was busy, and they slept in the day. For the rest we who lived in the town proper knew very little about them and so long as they kept their nefarious business, we themselves the respectable families of Oakdale paid them very little attention. So it seemed perfectly natural that that dazzlinganger should accuse me of being a thief.
"You can get meals at the hotel," I learned, grimly.
Hunger? I had never thought of hunger in connection with such a
step outside with Carnahan for a few minutes. Then turning to Sanders, he said: "I had a Sanders, you see Ive made some progress. This driver has already confessed to his part in this robbery and has told the whereabouts of the funeral, and has done along at. Speed and noticed that he had gone pale as a sheet. "The damn sniff- "Speed snarled, "this sniff- this." Then he caught himself as he realized the admission of guilt in his words, and his face went red with chagrin. "Well, you see," said Darrington to Sanders, stroking his chin with a steam of triumph, and admitted his guilt. You can take them both down to headquaters, officer." "But how was it done?" Sanders burst into two officers had with the prisoners.
Darrington stroked his chin, lit a cigarette and cettling back in his chair: "After going over the roof 'careful', I found no evidence that a rope had been used up there. There were no marks of a rope, there the corne or the skin on the floor, more on the penthouse door the foot and heel marks on the gravel roof above the Holden. All together, they were not to arouse that they had been put there on purpose. For another thing, Timothy, the cashier, testified that he only found one piece of the floor. The other piece the morn-der the 14th. Now, if the window had been kicked in from the outside, there would have been a large number of pieces of glass.

Darrington
Consulted that Speed was not seen to leave by Johnson, the porter nor was he seen to enter the next morning by Timothy. The last time Johnson saw Speed jumping his hands; when Timothy saw him next morning he was customary to all boxes at 3 p.m., were two or three boxes that were not sent off. I figured that Speed did that on purpose and any suspicion that next search was made by the police, he hid him soome that night, until everyone was gone. However, to eleven, the crumbs from his microwaves which he had in his shelf, the furs from the vault, put them in a box manned up and then he knew that Timothy would not enter that he had not entered. "Yes, intercepted Sanders, "but how did he open the vault? He didn't have the combination. How do you

"Quite simple," Darrington returned bluntly is the wash bowl, over the wast is a large mirror, by the door. In the door, a large room room you can glimpse right into the mirror and see anyone in front of the vault.

"Yes, I know." he smiled again, indulgently it seemed to me. "But I thought maybe there was a restaurant where I might get a lunch between hours. You know they only serve meals at the hotel at regular meal hours; you can get most meals till five o'clock, and no rather hungry."
"There is the bakery." I said hastily. They home town. "They serve ice cream sodas and things like that at the lunches, from the delicatessen. They
are both in the same building over there." I pointed across the park to the corner of Main and Broad streets. A very large and distinct name, "William Bates and Son—Bakery and Delicatessen." I passed it every day to and from school. Billy had graduated only one year before. Billy was two years old. William school school was four years older. He used to carry my books for me from the time I started to grade school the year after the meals had kept him out of school for almost a whole year. Every saw him almost every day. Everybody in Oakland teased us about each other. But—that was just a joke. Billy wasn't a bit good looking. He was nice enough though, and everybody liked him. However I was like the most popular person in school almost without regard for who or what he was. "Why, that's just fine," he hesitated for a breath and his eyes flashed quickly to look over my face, a quick look to have an ice cream soda with me?
I choked and stammered over my reply. A sudden panic of indecision gripped my confused senses. I wanted to cry, even when I seemed to sense my dilemma. His tones were soothingly understanding when he snookes without waiting for a reply. "I think I understand," he said, "your product probably friends might understand that our meeting was purely casual and wholly innocent. Well, some other time, after we know each other better, I hope we SHALL know each other better—soon. There was some surprise in my romance that I had so long yearned for in his voice on the last word.
I blushed and tried to smile back at him. But my heart sank. I knew that mother would never understand if I seemed sociable to him. Always with soft hands among the young men whom I might know intimately were signs of standards that were not exactly respectable. "When you see a man able to stand on the corner dressed up in the middle of the day, you can do it to do but look pretty and flirt with the women and girls, there's a screw loose somewhere," she would say with the utmost sincerity, when we were on our frequent shopping trips into the city to which our little town was located, only smile grimly and hope that Fate would take a hand in my affairs.
His next words were like an answer to prayer. I tended to me. "Do you ever go to the city alone? I like to go alone. My friends there who would vouch for my intentions. You see I realize that you must be car full. All young people in the city know that 'ah! I knew he was a gentleman. I thought to myself. No matter what mother thought of telling young sheeks this one was nice and harmed, but what every girl, wishes her-ideal. 'I never have,' I said, in answer to hl: low voiced question.

above me, nevertheless.
In the light from the screen I could see Billy Bates' round brown poll bobbing in interested efforts to hold and constantly moving heads of two loud voiced girls who sat immediately in front of him.
"Too bad your mother is so unreasonably strict on you," felt my mother, and constantly moving heads of two loud voiced girls who sat immediately in front of him.
"We bad your mother is so unreasonably strict on you," felt my mother, and constantly moving heads of two loud voiced girls who sat immediately in front of him.

I knew Billy had had no idea I was in the show and that he would think of following me home in such a slip shod manner as Harley suggested, but, nevertheless, I hurried my steps to the closest door. I saw parked cars near the opposite. As I came opposite it the door was opened from within and a soft thrilling voice bade me hop in. I did not look at the driver and his companion sitting him.

HEALTH FLASHES
Colds are often hard to cure but they are comparatively easy to prevent. If you feel one coming on, or if the other member of your family has a cold, you colds and you are quite sure that your turn is about due, you owe it to yourself to adopt preventive measures. This does not necessarily call for medicine, or even that one uses books upon as medicines. If the cold is actually upon you in full force, your physician should of course be called, but quite often an ounce of prevention works, worst of all proof of prevention—and prevention is relatively expensive. One of the simplest preventives is old-fashioned bicarbonate or soda and fresh lemon juice to be very effective against those colds which begin in the stomach. Take a teaspoonful of soda and the juice of one lemon in a glass of water. Thirty minutes later repeat dose. In another place take the third.
Soda has always been recognized as a decided alkaline agent, and have been placed in the same class. Probably more of us have acidosis to some extent than not, and the agents like bicarbonate of soda and lemon juice (taken unsweetened: by all means) plays have with any acid condition

Cetewayo, the Heroic Zulu King
"Myself and everyone of my men will die first and I give you until sunset to get out of erritory."
Armed Only With Spears and Knives, His Men Inflicted on the British the Most Crushing Defeat a Skilled Army Has Experienced at the Hands of a Dark Race in Modern Times. In One Skirmish He Defeated and Killed the Prince Napoleon, Heir to the French Throne.
By J. A. ROGERS
Ceteaway, King of the Zulus, was the hero of the greatest little war that England has ever had.
Armed only with spears and knives his men inflicted on the British the most crushing defeat that white men have experienced at the hands of any portion of a dark race in modern times.
His victory at Isandlhwana was marked by one of the most terrifying slaughters in the annals of warfare.
In one skirmish he defeated and killed the Prince Napoleon, heir to the French throne. It took England over a 100 million dollars in our money and her ablest general to cope like a king.
Of course, all of this sounds like romance although it happened less than fifty years ago.
But wait until you hear what a Zulu warrior was like.
Of all peoples on earth the Zulu possessed and still possess the finest and fittest physiques. In this respect they are the incarnation of the anthropos, well-known African traveler, says: "The Zulu are the physical superior of other races. A male Zulu has the strength, endurance, and body of a prizefighter in the pink breast, of a broad, their chest deep, their waists slim. Their women are the strongest females propagated." Cetewayo's army was composed of the pick of this pick of the human race in height or over. And there were from thirty to forty thousand of them.
Enchantment
A white American woman visiting Zululand, says that while out walking she met a Zulu, and so great was the physical force he radiated from her. She she she she as if she had been overthrown by "a wave of nower." The Bible and Greek mythology tell of giants whose tread shook the earth. When Cetewayo's army the earth trembled under its harp.
Rigid Discipline
A warrior's outfit consisted of a shield of dried ox-hide, two or three spears, and a short blade for stabbing, clothing he wore only a skin cloth. Discipline was of the most rigid kind. There was one penalty for disobedience or neglect of duty: death. When ordered to active service a warrior knew he must conquer his enemy, and he beaten army. He who ran or showed fear in battle was instantly cut down by the man behind him. No mercy was shown nor any expected. According to Col. Browne who saw the warrior could thirty miles day: and if need be, fifty, and give battle at the end of the day. Greatest of Armes Not, since the days of ancient Sparta, the world seen a body of fighting men compatible with that army of Cetayawos. And Cetayawos, needed this army to protect his kingdom—the kingdom he had inherited from his great-grandmother, Chaka, himself a mighty composer and the founder of the Zulu nation.
The Boers, or Dutch settlers were encroaching on his territory and actin' treacherously. Years before, to escape 'British persecution' further migrated into his land and had been his uncle. Dingean. Later, they became so odious that Dingean was stirred to order a massacre of them.
Aroused Opposition
Now British colonial politics did not view Cetewayo, and his army with too friendly an eye. But the aliens always been to divide and conquer, so he allowed to keep his army. It was an interesting thing with which to frighten the
Boers, their rivals.
Besides the British felt that they could easily handle Cetewayo. They felt pretty sure that when the time came all that, would be necessary would be to march into his territory with a few field-pieces and machine guns, press a button or two and preset his army, who they took care to see that even shot-guns were kept out of his reach.
In time the Boers surrendered their republic, leaving the British a free hand in South Africa except for Cetewayo, whose presence now took on quite a different aspect. From being a tool, he was now a menace. The Boers, now British subjects, must be protected.
Cetewavo must go!
Cetewayo Tricked
Having no love for the British, but deciding to use them, the Boers laid claim to a part of Cetewayo's territory, and began to settle on it. The British, called in as arbiters, decided in favor of Cetewayo, by seizing on the opportunity, began to scold him about affairs in his own kingdom. The missionaries, because they had been plotting against him, and meddling in his national affairs. One of them had written a letter to the governor of the Zululun, utter destruction of the Zululun can secure peace in South Africa."
British Demands
The British also made several demands, among them being: that Zulu warriors should be permitted to marry, and that Cetewayo should be allowed to have official spy—to live in his capital. And then as if to crown all they demanded the disbanding of his army. Never, perhaps, was man more surprised than this Negro monarch. British officials deceived favor of the plaintiff, proceeding to lecture the plaintiff on his personal affairs—affairs that had not become before the court. As Miss Colenso, British officials, among the whites, said, he was treated if he were a-child, instead of being the head of a nation. When the British demands were brought to him, there was but one thing: he was a child. Bising from his throne to the magnificent six feet four of his height, he fungi his defiance at the white envoys; and every one of my men will die first. I give you until sunset to get out of my territory."
Early in January, 1879, the British, under Lord Chelsford, 12,000 strong, marched on the battlefield with points. On the 2nd, one of these columns composed of 1000 whites and 2000 blacks, under Col. Durfurnd fell in with a Zulu army 10,000 strong.
Battle Rages
And then the battle that will go down in history as one of the greatest enics of all time.
The Zulus, as was their custom, began the battle by encircling the Zulus, and the warriors, behind them, the veterans. The British, entrenching themselves, behind their wagons, opened fire with their artillery and machine guns. The Zulus, armed only with spears, tried to criety, while the guns moved them down in windows, as stalks of wheat before a reaper.
But charging madly home to death on the galley, the warriors pressed grimly until they the barricade. Then leaping over they gave the enemy a taste of what fighting at close quarters and with equal weapons meant.
One of the scouts, Col. Browne, one of the scouts, wandered on the scene he beheld a sight such as few human beings have ever witnessed.
A vast silent field of dead. God of battles, what a slaughter! Six thousand five hundred warriors lay there! There were no wounded. The there had killed the entire British force, forty-two, who escaped by swimming their horses down the stream.
Of the Negro warriors, 3,500 lay
"In their mad rush," says Browne, "the Zulus had killed everything, even the horses, dogs, and mules. There were heaps and heaps of Zulu dead; where the machine guns had mowed them down they lay in bed. In addition the Zulus had captured 40,000 cartridges and the riffs of the British.
Zulus Terrify
At the news of this crushing defeat the whites in South Africa were killed. They self-shares the same awful fate, they cabled to England for aid, and that same week 15,000 soldiers under Lord Woleseley with the latest equipment left for the Cape. Among volunteers was the Prince Napoleon, and of the recently deposed, Napoleon III.
A few days later cateway again defeated the British at Rorke's Drift, and laid siege to Etshowe. He followed it with another victory at the capture of the ground being, in his favor.
In August, 1879, the British, now strongly re-inforced, invaded Zulukland. With a force of 15,000 men, the British held his 25,000 warriors at Ulduni. Strongly entrenched behind their ammunition carts and wagons, the British opened fire at a range of 1000 yards.
Superhuman Courage
The Negro heroes charged with their use of the rifle, were as impossible for them, ill-armed as they were, to pass the belt of fire that protected their foes. Against the machines, valor and bravery counted, but the Negroes passed through me." says Browne, "when I thought of the splendid courage of the savages who could advance to the charge suffering such awful punishment. Finally Cetatey sparred to wade through, leaving 5,000 of his men dead.
A few days later, however, Cetatey sprang another surprise. One of his detachments defeated and killed the enemy, causing a tremendous stir in Europe.
Was this stir? His grandfather had caused the death of a Negro, Toussaint L'Ouverture.
Soon after this Cetewayo was captured and kept a prisoner for three years, during which time his country, missing his strong hand, fell into anarchy. Many kings arose, and the fortunes of his kingdom lasted at last even his enemies began to demand his return, and Cetewayo was granted his wish to go to England to present his case to Queen Victoria. Acclaimed in England When he arrived in England he was accorded a reception such as

few monarchs have received. The Zulu War had been very unpopular with the people at home. They felt that Cetewayo had only been protecting the people, we have been expected of any patriot. They were all the more confirmed in their opinion when they found in Cetewayo not a man-eating savage, as his enemies had declared him, but a gentleman, and he was Queen Victoria was highly impressed with him, and so was the English press.
In the words of even a white South African, Theal (History of South Africa). "He was received and treated as if he had been a beneficient and civilized ruler who had merely done his duty to his people by heroically endeavoring to protect them against an invading army. Great crowds attended the event, deputations from various societies waited on him; he was taken to see places of interest, far and near, in short, he was made the lion of the day such as no white of a third-rate state would have been
"A guest of the British government he was provided with everything that could tend to his comfort and he was fitted out with clothing and he was given the most expensive kind, the most expensive kind. He appeared in London dressed as an English gentleman and what is wonderful, really, he conducted himself as if he had been accustomed to kill children and kid gloves. Great as is the power of imitation of the ordinary African, Ceteway certainly excelled all his countrymen in this wise." "Presents of the most incongruous kinds were showed on him, such as gold lockets and cashmere shawls; three wagon-loads in all. ... He would have been utterly spoilt if it had not been that his intense curiosity and allure allame all other feelings and enabled him to keep his senses."
His Kingdom Stolen
Queen Victoria promised to do all that was in her power for him but her ministers, on the demand of the South Africans, did little. Cetewayo was returned to the country, but found that his kingdom had been split into three parts, one of which was restored to him. Anxious to restore his nation, he made war on the one of these chiefs, and was defeated by the whites, was stronger and defeated him. On February 9, 1884, he died presumably of heart trouble. Was Remarkable Character of Natal, one of his foes, speaks in the highest terms of his personal character and his indomitable courage. "He was remarkably frank and straightforward," he says, "with much character and a dignified manner." Bishop Colenso and his sister strove hard to win justice for him as did others in England. Miss Colenso found that "Cetewayo's treatment, reflected no credit on the name of England."

make it like you want it with these beauty preparations
A young man in Chicago asks a very old question.
My dear Mrs. Jerome:
Do you believe in love at first sight? A week ago I met a young lady who is beautiful and charming. I’m not so bad myself and we are both sure we each other. And since we do, why shouldn’t we marry even if our friends are skeptical and laugh at us? I know it was love at first sight though I often hear such thing. What do you think?
HAPPY LOVER.
Yes, I believe I love you. I should say I love you at first sight and this feeling properly cultivated will lead to love. Of course, everyone has a different conception of what love is. But I fancy that love is a relationship. I love you. Therefore, does not always mean love. And mutual attraction can be just passion and not love. But, I repeat mutual attraction is the first step toward love. You seem so hilariously happy and happiness is so beautiful that I do not want to throw cold water on it by cautioning you to wait. I will instead, in the understanding after you marry. You will certainly have quarrels—they can k'r just a healthy work-out—they can sordid and tragic. If you will keep your sense of humor, you will play with the understanding after you marry when your wife-to-be does something that hurts you, quarrels can help you rather than hinder you in finding and establishing a great and lasting love. The person who takes himself seriously you] have a hard time of it. The new idea cf companionate marriage is a modern attempt to meet just such situations as yours. But since society has not yet got ahead and marry. Your enthusiasm is worth the chance.

And say! "Here that ten dollars that I owe."
I might arise in my large white cavat
And say, "What's that?"

And you should come to my cold corpse and knee.

hard in the light inside the car as one steel fingered hand closed chokingly over my mouth. "Shut up, you little fool!" I. the music had died out of his voice and only sharp cruelly remained. Then as the big car speed on and on into the darkness of a country road his grisp relaxed. He took his hand away and laughed lightly. The need of being brightened little one, he chided. "I'm not going to hurt you—if you'll be a good girl and do as I say." The last part of his sentence held a menace and a promise. It吓ed me terrified. I offered him one year of speeding in silence through the darkness the car drew up before a dim huddle of shadowy buildings. I was so terror. stricken that I could not move when with a shister. finality I could not stop stretching stretched themselves. Why had they brought me to this forlorn place?
"Come on, baby, climb out." There was nothing soothing and reassuring in the intimacy of the voice of the after-moon acquaintance of the after-moon. Oh what! I would have given to be safe at home with mother. And Billy-Why didn't Billy followed me to the corner. "If he had—if he had been, in time to see me get in that car maybe there might have been some chance. But no—there was none. No one would ever think of my going off with a strange man. No one ever knew I would be to him. No one might choose to do with me. there would be no way for anyone to trace me—or him.
I was frozen with fear.
"Hey, come on pile out of three, you!" it was: the grunt voiced driver who spoke. But I could not move; my limbs seemed paralyzed. Rather impatiently Walter stepped on the ground, arms not over tenderly and yet with a suggestion of suggestive caress that sent a shudder of fear through me again.
Once on the ground I looked around and the way was open to hold myself to the River Flats. I had been driven miles around the river road back to the Flats outside of Oakdale. Why?
Half carrying, half dragging me, Walter Reg led me down across the .sandy weed-grown. debris-strewn path to the water's edge; I watched him walk in it that I saw the outlines of a big house-boat out on the water. I was led across the long plank that led to the small deck and one of the men fumbled at the lock of the door a moment. The door swing open and the door opened. The interior was exposed to view. A single glance at the dark shades securely nailed across the windows told why no gleam of all this light had escaped until the door was opened. At the sight before my eyes. I quipped. The interior seemed full of men. Not a single woman was in sight but no—that dreadful thing in the corner there must be a woman. Across the end of the long narrow room was a fully furnished bar, full of candles, either side of the half mude woman who leered at me as I entered.
She laughed, a' horrid yellow toothed laugh. "Hello, dearie," she croaked. "Come down to help me entertain, hey. It's hard to get 'em young and pretty like you these days. The girl went to work, Walter." she turned to my suavely smiling companion of the afternoon, walk and romantic dreams. "We'll soon git her broke in. After tonight we'll hev to ship her down river till any, exultement up in the town blows. over. In a month or so she'll git used to work and anyhow by her workmate, go back." She laughed coarsely at her own joke. The men joined her.
My blood turned to water in my veins as a bloated faced man lurched toward me, his bloodshot eyes staring evily, his clawlike hand reached out between us snarling as he did so“Hands off, Beachy, she’s just for the rest of you to look at now.” He pulled me over toward him. At this a tense silence fell over the room. Something posited in the dirt, a moist atmosphere. The driver of the ear spoke. His voice was hoarse with pent anger. “What the hell do you think you are—we helped get her here and—He got her. He got her. Regis whipped out an automatic and levelled it at the speaker. “I picked her up, didn’t I?” His voice was cruel like his sleek-skin face now. I shuddered in despair. And then the voice of my mother’s face and it seemed to me that the room and its evil aura faded out. I seemed to

BleachingCream after while you sleep
stand, alone on some, misty height and from a great, distance there came a faint clear, sound as of my mother's voice "PRAY, HELEN, PRAY"—the words were insistent and clear.
I do not know to this day what I came around me at that instant. It was as if I was actually and physically lifted out of the hell around me for that breath of time. It never occurred to me to doubt or hesitate. Except for this one time I had never wilfully disobeyed my command. I saw her clearly now.
I dropped upon my knees there in that fith and among the drunken sum of the world I raised my voice in supplication. I did not see the people but I felt some, quality of the world that I saw in the first words that occurred to me—"O Saing Viktim, opening wide. The gate of heaven to man below, Our foes dress on from every side. The aid supply, thy strength bestow."
As the last word fell from my lips there broke across the silence the shrill shriek of racing winds. There was a sudden rushing and struggling wind that seemed to break about me. I heard the police siren and fainted. I awoke in my mother's arms. The blink of her eyes through the windows, our safely sheltered little home. Standing near the foot of the bed my eyes caught the tear-filled gaze of the round window. I looked side it looking almost, ludicrously funny in his blinking efforts to keep the tears back stood Billy, brown and homely but, oh, so blessedly familiar honest in his abiding love for me.
It was days later that I learned the details. Billy HAD followed me to the corner. Why he did not love me so much, and why love for me led him to act instinctively. He had not believed it was I whom he saw enter the car until my mother came to his home, frantic with fear for me. It was as he was frightened by the noise, Maike on her porch. Why she should have felt wakeful and anxious. Maike did not know, but she could not rest so she had come to the porch. And the memory of my apology was still there, hiding trees had disturbed her mind. The stranger had seemed to her evil—"a city fellow" as Maike called him. The unknown quantity had placed her where she could give the children what they had disturbed. Then the greatest mystery of all came as the police, searching about the fists, saw nothing but darkness and were turning to depart and seek shelter. Maike believed her rested lost; when a sudden wind sparked up and in the blast they saw the door of what they thought was a dark, deserted houseboat, swing open and out of it poured a cursing, fear-ridden drunken group of men.
So the Unknown Quantity led them to me even as my mother knelt in prayer blocks away in our home and bade me from her heart. wherever I might be in whatever danger to me, I would be happy that I am happily and safely married to Billy and an daily blessed in his love and the love of our three wee ones. I trust that Unknown Quantity implicitly in all the affairs and problems of my life and—theirs and—IT. NEVER YET HAS FAILLED

SOX BREAK EVEN IN JOUSTS WITH LINCOLN GIANTS
Swamped in Comedy of Errors, 10-1, but Cop Nightcap by 4-3 Margin.
ERRORS ARE COSTLY
Brings Sox Victory.
Spectators at Maryland park Sunday afternoon were treated to the extremes of comedy and tragedy, as the Black Sox dropped the first contest t of the Lincoln Giants of New York, by a 10-1 margin, but came back with a vengeance to wrest a 4-3 victory from the Harlem tossers in the night cap.
The first game was truly a comedy, a total of seven misuses being made by the local aggregation, three of these being charged to "Dick" Dundy and two to Armage Warfield. The two sides allowed the Giants to convert their ten hits into any runs while Rector was holding the Sox to seven binges. The Wesporters seemed unable to hurle the shoots of the New York hurler, who worked a route without in danger.
Vokely, worked six innings of the first game, allowing nine hits. He was relieved by "Bill" Force who only lifted one hit in the three receptions.
The Lincoln Giants started off with a bang, garnering three runs in the first inning to clinch the contest. The lone run of the Black Sox in the opening frame. The Giants shoved the fourth quarter of mark-
Comedy of Errors
After Rojo had fled out to Dixon, Yancey got on, thru Warfield's muff of a fast liner. Rector doubled and Gray drew a pass, but Yancey to steal him now walked, populating all of the way stations, and Rector went to first when Lundy booted a stinging grass cutter. Riggins singled, and when Jess Husbull passed, Rector field, advanced to as broad as Gray, Washington and Smith traited across the pan. Riggins was later caught trying to steal third.
Washington Makes Great Catch
The final scoring of the contest came in the sixth, when Gray and Smith scored, after having singled and walked, respectively, on a double by Riggin, who cracked out a clean single, a taut double for Baba Ruth' Wilson in the eighth, jarred the boards on centerfield fence and had it been a foot higher would have cleared for a shot, but Washington, left fielder the Lincoln Giants, robbed "Tap" Dixon of what seemed a sure double, by racing at top speed into deep left field to make a great one-handle catch: Dixon satisfied himself to some extent by hitting Reed in a similar shot, the ninth.
Second Game Best
The second game, by far the more exciting of the two contests, saw no scoring until the fourth inning when the visitors counted patrol, and the Black Sox in their half of the fifth inning. The Lincoln assumed a one-run lead in the seventh. After Yancey had bunted out, Holland got on base thru Lundy's error and was relieved by Jeffries bunt, Washington then hit directly to Warfield, who booted the sphere and finding himself too late to get the runner at first, shot the ball home to Clark in the second inning, was rushing headlong for the plate. Clarke tagged Holland, but dropped the ball, and in an effort to nall Washington who had a lead off first base, threw to Wilson, who also dropped the ball, and scoring eroded as Smith filed to Washington of the Black Sox
Rally In Eighth
The Black Sox turned the tide in the eighth by a rally led by Dixon, who opened the inning with a single. Miles then lined out a clean single which scored both runners. The Linchins sent in "Nip" Winters as a pinch hitter in the ninth, and the Red Sox scored "Script." Lee hurled in masterful style during the entire contest and received great support from his outfield at-

Kid Snowden Is Flattened Again
PHILADELPHIA—Theodore (Kid) Snowden, pugilistic mauler of Lincoln university, was knocked out by George Giachino, in the first of the scheduled two round winnings at the New Broadway. Thursday
Snowden was far from his best and did little or no fighting. After Glacino caught Snowden on jaw with a wrist caught on the fiddle, Glacino was counted out by the referee. Snowden weighed 188½ and Glacino 172½.
Bill Bailey scored a technical knockout over Joe Wade, the hostages at the first round. Edwards didn't have a chance and took a terrific beating.
CHOCOLATE FIGHT POSTPONED
An injury Kid Chocolate's hand was last week with Fidel La Barba, has caused Taylor and Gunnis to postpone the Chocolate fight with Vidal Gorgonio, originally scheduled for Monday night, until Wednesday. Chocolate's doctor appeared before Taylor and Gunnis and told them Chocolate could not do himself justice by fighting Monday night.

Harford County Is Crowned Leader in Western Shore Championships.
RECORDS TUMBLE
Carroll County Meet Won by Westminster School.
The rise and fall of Playground, Athletic League monarchs was witnessed last week, when a new king was crowned in the Western Sho' division, as Harford County won that and the championship was retained as Dunbar High School athletes with their junior high school victory still ringing in their ears, sped on to another city-wide championship.
Ideal weather conditions greeted the local tracksters at Carroll Park yesterday, when onslaught on the records of previous city-wide meets, and at the close of the competition, twelve new marks had been set. Dunbar's 440-yard relay team in the 85-ib. class set a new record for that event, when they were clocked in 55 seconds. On this day, the C. Yarborough, H. Chambers, and E. Crawley.
H. Johnson of Douglass High School ran the 880 in 2 minutes, 10 seconds to set a new city-wide meet record. J. Pulley, of Douglass, ran the century in 10 2-5 seconds.

Chocolate Wins From LaBarba
KID CHOCOLATE
WINS DECISION
OVER LA BARBA
Plucky Cuban Bantam Keeps Record Clean by Vanquishing Former Champ.
NO TITLE AT STAKE
Both Fighters Enter Ring Overweight; Italian Wobbles
NEW YORK. (Special)
Stamping himself as the outstanding gladiator of a leaderless division, Kid Chocolate, the battling Cuban bantam, kept his undefeated record clean, by winning the decision over Fidel La Barba, Los Angeles Italian, after ten furious rounds of boxing at the New York Coliseum, Wednesday night, while 18,000 fans looked on.
Not Title Match
The bout was not a championship match as each fighter weighed on the bantam limit. Chocolate weighed 121 and LaBarba tipped the beams at $120^{\frac{1}{2}}$ pounds. Chocolate forced the match into an exhibition of skill rather than fighting, and in making La Barba aggressor, took advantage of the opportunity, when backing away to land a number of hard punches to the Italian's face and body.
[Image of a black man with a neutral expression]
"Reed" Nearly Rayes Lobdell. As no time was wasted in the important occasions the crowd was thrilled, when La Barba was staggered by Chocolate's punch. Twice it seemed as if he would be knocked out, once in the seventh, when Chocolate caught him on the chin with right swings that made him wobble. Chocolate. however, had to recover before leading again.
Action Rapid
The action in the bout was so rapid that during the exchange of blows, many of La Barba's punches were knocked out and easily vaulted to land. This may have had some effect in swaying the vote of George Kelly, the judge who voted that the fight be called a draw. Charles Wheeler, the coach of Referee Lou Magnolia voted in Chocolate's favor. Jimmy D. Forest, veteran trainer of fighters, and Louis Guttierrez, the referee, Chocolate, were in the Heat.
FIGHT STORY ROUND BY ROUND
BOUND ONE—La Barba came out and locked a leaf to the body, which Chocolate altered inside of. La Barba crowded it to the face. La Barba missed a left hook and they went into a clinch. La Barba jets chocolate on the ropes and belled him to the stomach. Another rally La Barba hooked a bit low to the stomach. La Barba smacks a left arm to skin. Chocolate infuses a couple of mid lefts and La Barba went into a clinch as the bell sounded. La Barba the better of this round.
The better of this round is a left to chest in the infinghting following which the Kid battered La Barba's body. The former fiveweight champion appeared to have twisted two lefts to the body. Chocolate tubbed La Barba's nose with a left, and locked La Barba's left counter. Chocolate tubed two lefts to the body. Chocolate landed right and left to the face and then snuck La Barba hard with a left to the body; they were in a mix at the bell. Kid had a shade the better of this round.
ROUND THREE--Alter--sparring cau-
sely for a moment Chocolate out loose
and forced La Barba back to the repea-
tion. La Barba blocked three of La Barba's leads.
The Barba then grasped the shoulder and
then grasped La Barba's jaw with a right.
La Barba sent a left to the shoulder and
then grasped the shoulder and right to the thigh staggering La Barba.
The bell ended the round in Chocolate's.
ROUND FOUR--There was qaq uile a little
liding and falling in, with
left on the body, but he was met with
a couple of rights. La Barba landed a
right on the body, and so rounded as he blocked La Barba's rushes.
He landed a low punch to the body, and
contoured with a smashing right slip to
La Barba miss two left swings, and they
posing like fighting cocks ready to
sound. This also was Chocolate's round.
ROUND FIVE-Chocolate* stabs left to
twice. La Barba blocks the next
thumb up to him. The Negro keeps pecking at
a man with a straight left, and La Barba
high up to the head. Chocolate evades an
rush and cracks La Barba's chin
with chocolate. Chocolate plays a wang
eame. The Negro cuts loose with a series of snapping
with La Barba goes to his corner
with the left eye. Another
round for Chocolate.
WON HIS FIGHT
An attempt to do the same sort of thing has been made by the S.I.A.A. and the C.I.A.A. in their recent crusades. Of course there are those who will stand on the side and ridicule the efforts of these schools, pointing at evils that exist in practically every one of them. We all know that our schools their attempts to do sports athletics, are on the right road, and that success will eventually be their reward.
We are not expecting any Utiopian condition whereby all schools, will have 99.44 per cent pure athletics. That would be ideal. We are pessimistic enough to assert that athletics will never be so clean, yet if no attempts are made to work at it, there can certainly be no hope for anything better. Now clean, expect to get dirty, but that should be no sound argument against bathing. And in the language of the Betholine dealer we say, "More Power" to the schools who have the nerve to call a spade a spade. May their tribe increase.
WHILE WEVE BEEN TALKING about the feats of track and field stars all over the country, we want to drop a word here concerning a trio of athletes at Morgan College, who, if taken in hand, should find their names on the scrolls of the famous, some of these
Considering the fact that their training grounds have been anything but ideal, and that Morgan has few facilities for year-round athletic training, the showing of these three athletes merits more than passing notice. Under more favorable conditions and with the opportunity to stay in training twelve months in the year, they should develop into fine performers.
ROANOKE. Va.-Carlos. Zavolla,

circles at K. O. Charlie Scott, knocked
out Young Sanitation of, Cuba in
the seventh round of an eight round
auditorium, here Monday night.
Your memory may be strong enough to go back a column or so ago when we wrote of the attempted control of athletics in school and in Anderson, writing on the same subject, has the following to say:
"There are many educators and athletic coaches who believe that most of the evils of the athletic systems in college are traceable to the failure of students or coaches, would never occur to undergraduate." The body is sainer with reference to the emphasis upon victories than old grads, provided the students of institutions have the knowledge of modern educational thinking.
On the same card Sailor Smith, local champ, defeated Jack Cunningham in eight rounds, and Battling Johnson in a second. Johnson. There was no a special exhibition bout between Corkscrew Polindexter and Bobby Bennett.
"A white student paper argues that the old grads are well meaning. They would like to see the students take greater interest in their athletics, but the truist they have teamed up with to the team, the grads are eager, and to the coach. The students of today are not less interested in sports. On the contrary, intra-mural sports are growing apace. More students are playing tennis, baseball, football, soccer, lacrosse, basketball and golf, or swimming or running, jumping than ever before. On that score
"this" has the landed. La Barba holds. Chocolate goes back to his stabbing tactics and La Barba gets Chocolate on his back. La Barba's great speed and cleverness keep him pretty much out of harm. The bell rings. Another round for Chocolate. **ROUND SIGHT**-Chocolate cloak. La Barba gets Chocolate to land to body and right to face. He blocks La Barba's attempts to land. The Kid lands La Barba comes tearing in. The Cuban appears to have solved La Barba's one-handed style and is outboxing his man. He lands La Barba's continually bore in. Chocolate lands right to jaw. Fidel gets over two legs to body. There was little done in this round. But Chocolate had the better of it.
"Presidents of our schools are beginning to see the value of football and other contests as means, second to none other, for developing youth leadership. Bigger physical educators, being secured, Coaches and physical educators, who have been trained professionally for the job, are being made members of the faculty. Alumni who have the interest of the college youth are encouraged, efforts are made with victories, will not lend the weight of their influence to undo the efforts of the greater of the educational plant."
ROUND NINE-Chocolate lands right hook to jaw. La Barba puts left to belt. La Barba puts right to belt. Head with a left and the Kid retails by staggering La Barba with three terrific rights to jaw, making the hold on for a counter attack, but the CUB can ties up him. La Barba lands two left to face, but Chocolate uppercuffs with right hook to jaw, but the CUB can ties up him. ROUND TEN-La Barba comes out with left extended and with a determined look on his face. They touch gloves and La Barba puts right to jaw, but the CUB can ties up him. He tries to keep on top of the Negro, but Chocolate is too elusive for him. Fidel lands a low punch to the knee, but Chocolate makes no complaint. Chocolate lands right to face and in the clinch La Barba keeps trying to arm the knee, but Chocolate in a tangle of arms when the bell rang.
Seven errors, all made at critical times, proved costly to the Rossiter clan. It must be remembered that the Black Sox were playing a good team when they tackled the Lincoln's. It must be further remembered that the two-week competition with which they were competing was decided against the local team, and it must be also kept in mind that the condition of the Diamond is far from being ideal.

Third Colgate University Athlete Chosen to Direct Morehouse Teams.
B. T. HARVEY RETIRES
After 13 Years, Will Devote
By A. W. DENT
ATLANTA, Ga.-Ray K. L. Vaughn, backfield man of Colgate University, has been secured as athletic coach at Morehouse College after a contingency to recent a announcement by President Hose.
We're speaking of Russell Sterling, Alonzo Cottman, and Alfred Bell, the former a freshman, the latter a senior, and for the 80, and made a good showing at the Fenn Relays in the dashes. He was also a point scorer at Hampton and proved a valuable on the Bearskin lay team. Also on the team were 800 and 880, and competed in the discus throw. Bell is good in the mile; half-mile, and shows promise in broad jumping.
Mr. Vaughn has made a brilliant record as an athlete, having played as a regular half-back or full-back on the college team. 26, 27, and 28. During these three seasons he played in every game with the exception: of five, four of which played against southern white, col-

for three years and has had experience in basketball and baseball With this training and experience, he has been a professor to Professor Harvey, who has been a leader in southern collegiate athletics for more than a decade.
Mr. Harvey came to Morehouse in the fall of 1915 as head of the Department of Chemistry and Physics, along with this teaching was given the coaching of all athletic teams.

"Alumni in many instances have rendered great service to the boys by backing up athletic endeavors or by making gifts to schools. This is well and good. They err in trying to drag athletics back into a school of thought whose role is detrimental. Sports are defended in schools because of the elaborated media for developing health and emphasize character traits. If any influence is consciously damaged or mucker character traits are developed, athletes are a positive source of harm.
Morehouse won three of which were tied, and nineteen of which were lost. This record was made against such schools as Fisk. Howard, Union, Atlanta University, Talkeetah. A. and T. College and Tuskegee.
Has Fine Record
In basketball Harvey-coached teams won the southern conference championship for ten consecutive years from 1916 to 1926, and again in 1929; and were claimants for National Collegiate title in 1923-24, and 1924-25. In 1925, five games played on the period only nineteen, were lost.
HOLES IN THE SOX caused the locals to play one of the raggedest games of their career against the Lincoln Giants, last
In baseball Harvey-coached teams have won four southern conference championships, tied for two, and run the entire season during these thirteen years. Mr. Harvey has been the pivot around which Southern collegiate athletes has moved. He has served as president of the Southeastern Association since its organization in 1926, as president of the Southeastern Intercollegiate Athletic Association for two years, and this year as president of the Collegiate Athletic Conference.
There should be no alibis for defeat, as the Lincoln Giants simply cutplayed Frank Warfield's boys in the first contest, and for a while it looked as if the Lloydmen were going to take the second contest. Loss of a game to the Lincoln marks the first loss for the Sox this season—a thing to be expected. But we'd like to drop a little suggestion here—one that we gave months ago. Considering the fact that the Black Sox have practically a team of STARS, we believe that there be but one leadership team to co-operation on the part of all of the players. Only in this way can ball games be won. Stars in themselves, do not win ball games. Selah!
To Devote Time to Teaching
Beginning with the fall of 1920, M. K. Mackenzie went to the Department of Chemistry and the editing of the Morehouse Journal of Science.
Unlike most schools, Morehouse has had three coaches from Colgate: Dean Archer, Professor Harvey and now Mr. Vaughn.
Unlike most schools, Morehouse has had three-time coach Dr. Hope states that he still feels that the coach at Morehouse College should have direct classroom contact with students, Mr. Vaughn, will be given a teaching schedule.

The Belfair, who a week ago, punched his way to the ballpark, but the ballpark bought a clever battle. Flowers, however, fought a good fight, using his same slugging slashing mode of attack, but could not find a spot for effect. Flowers, enough he shook Berg several times.

Shaw Routs A. & T. for Carolina Title
By "NAYV" ARMSTRONG
RALEIGH, N. C.—The Shaw university bears won the right to claim the N.C.A.U. championship, by defeating A. and T. College, 6-4 here last week. It was Power's slow curve ball that spelled defeat for the hard hitting Aggle aggregation. Although the visitors collected a total of twelve shots, Powers kept them well scattered. Pollard was the outstanding player for the visitors, securing four safe clouts in three trips to the final holding seven chances afield without a bobble.
Armstrong, Moore and Black sang their swan song in the game. Moore will leave the institution the latter part of next week for Iowa where he will play semi-pro ball this summer.

PHILADELPHIA. — Outstanding
performances by race ath-
letes last week predicts
what they will do in the big
wind-up of collegiate competition,
the Intercollegiate Association
of Amateur Athletes of
America meet here this week
and enter the center of the
track and field stage.
the greatest performance of the past week was that of Eddie Tolan, a sophomore who smashed the world's record for the 100-yard dash, when he was knocked in 0:095 seconds at the Wei'arn Conference - outdoor track and field championship at Northwestern University, Saturday.
Runs Brilliant Race
Tolan beat out by a step George Simpson, Ohio State University flash, in one of the most thrilling races to be staged. He came from behind in the last 20 yards. For a few strides he wielded shoulder to shoulder to win and then gradually pulled ahead enough in the dash at the finish to win by a narrow margin. Tolan performance eclipses that of such stars as the great Howard Drew, Charley Paddock, Dan Kelly and others who had jointly held the century in 0.09, 3.5-seconds.
Loses 220 to Simpson
In the 220-yard dash Tolan lost by a stride to Simpson, who tied the world's record for that distance. Another world's record was broken when Dick Rockaway, white hurler for the Minnesota team, scored 28.8 seconds for the 220-yard low hurdles. Whether these marks will be accepted by the A.A.U. is debatable, judging that the slight breeze blowing at the time was not sufficiently strong to give the runners any aid. Application will be made to have the marks accepted. In the same meet in which Tolan was piling up world fame for himself, Edward Gordon, lanky University of Iowa star won the broad jump for 24 feet, inches, and tied for first place in the high jump at 6 feet, with Carr of Illinois and Felker of Michigan. Utterback. On the day in a dual meet between the University of Pittsburgh and the Army, at West Point, N.Y., Everett Ubacker, star Pitt athlete, won the high jump with a leap of 100 yards, placed third in the 100-yard dash.
To Watch Edwards. Myers
Athletes from 32 colleges are gathering here at Franklin Field in Philadelphia, for the '53rd annual track and field championship of the college and Saturday. Notable among the big entry list will be Phil Edwards and Dave Myers, both of New York University. It is likely that Edwards will participate in the 440 and 860 races, and will relive the relay Myers will be a member of the relay team and also will compete in the *javelin throw*. Edwards has been picked as one of the four defending champions, a crown which he won in the half mile event at Boston last year.

One of the biggest events of the week, societal speaking, was the Phyllis Wheatley Literary and Whist Glory Club evening. Baltimore elite was there in the latest of evenings gowns and "tucks." The hall made a fairy-like showing with feet almost blanked against the walls—and the soft, lighting effects of handsome door lamps that throw just the right light to make it a dreamy place as the man walked with their partners in time with the best of orchestra. The hostesses were gracious and most coral, which made the affair all the more worth while. Those present were:

Thelma Coleman Hurt
Thelma Coleman the daughter
I was the one who met Mecken
the other day and she was telling me that our
cour little friend. Thelma Coleman, the
daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Tyler Coleman,
2009 McCulloch street, broke her leg. While shifting
all happenings of a piano in the gymnasium
of the James Adams School one day last
week, the instrument toppled and fell on
poor Thelma, breaking her leg. She was
bumped by an instrument. It was found that the fracture was in the middle of the left leg. Thelma has been teaching English and music in the James Adams School at Coatesville, New York. Her mother and dad motor up there every other day and say that Thelma is in good spirits and doing nicely. We are all so very sorry to hear of this mishap and hope for Thelma a speedy recovery.
The Hawkins' Hare a Second Daughter

on Gilmar street, there is much excitement
over the arrival on past Saturday. We are

I am going to give a bridge party in your honor," are worth having, and I will be there this week. All she had to do was call up her friends and be there to greet them. Mrs. Wilson did the other honors. It proves that she is a great teacher of the season. On meeting the hostess, one would have thought she had known all Mildred's friends for years, for she was so congenial and jolly and made feel that she was really their friend, too.
Mrs. Wilson's home is truly beautiful all the way through, and the way she arranged the bridge she built was beautiful, with her hands and tasty menu, was a revelation. And then the handsome prizes she awarded, all was in keeping with herself and her home environment, and the silk umbrella for first prize, which Cook Gordon won: a beautiful glass jar of the best face powder that went to Elmhurst. Mrs. Wilson's home was Whiton, an exquisite satin handkerchief case and lace and embroidered handkerchiefs for keeping score. Other guests at the reception included Matt Connell, Irdale Williams, Sook Gordon, Salle Nicholle, Jamie Taswell Johnson, Mrs. Thomas Wooldridge, Mane Tousnard Mathews, Herbert Wooldridge, and Sarah Macbeth, Merril Groomes, Paul Wharton, Daisy Coleman, Dorothy Coleman and Sarah Fernandis.

Phi Beta Sigma Frat Host at a Delightful Prom
The Gamma Chapter of the Phi Betaigma fraternity was host to a brilliant hang at its spacious draped fraternal colors of white and white—and a symbol of the insignia which blazed in the center of the星星状 bank, gave a very picturequeen stance on entering the hall. The design of the bank was reproduced on the backs of the dance cards that no time filled out as the righteous music continued to pour forth. This peppy staff will linger in the memory of the most outstanding member of the season.

Don't Be like that
Don't be like the girl who said she didn't care if she did perspire--it was a perfectly natural thing to do. Of course it is natural but it is decidedly embarrassing for yourself and unpleasant for others. And it is so easily prevented--just a dab of Dabon--the perfect deodorant--applied in the armpits--positively checks perspiration harmlessly by diverting it to other parts of the body for elimination. It prevents perspiration odors and preserves your clothing. Men as well as women use it.

gement that her husband was not of

D. C. SEGREGATION CASE TO HI COURT
N.A.A.C.P. BACKING.
WASHINGTON—Briefs in opposition to petitioners for writs of certiorari seeking a review of two residential segregation cases which arose in the District of Columbia were filed in the Supreme Court of the United States last Monday.
These two cases involve the question of whether covenants, which provide that certain property shall not be used, occupied by or sold, conveyed, leased, rented or given to colored persons, are valid. Appeals of the District of Columbia affirmed a declension of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia upholding such provisions. By the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, applied to the Supreme Court of the United States for a review of the case.
The property involved in these cases are No. 2328 First street northwest, which was sold to Henry and Alcee Randolph street northwest, which was sold to Edgar G. and Susie B. Russell.
Counsel for the white property owners take the position that the public policy of the District of Columbia, the Nation's Capital, permits 2:1 recognizes as necessary the segregation of races under certain circumstances. Attorneys for the positioners contend that segregation covenants are contrary to the policy of the United States and are unenforceable in the courts. If such covenants are enforced, they are veritable ghetto system will result.

FINANCIAL REPORT WORRIES BAPTISTS
Convention Benevolences Fall
$1100 Short of Last Year,
Cause Alarm.
QUIETEST EVER HELD
The Third Annual United Baptist Convention of the State of Maryland came to a close here Friday, after concerning the financial reports made by the churches at the meeting.
The Financial Committee, after a tabulation of funds reported for all purposes, declared the amount was about $1,100,000, all of which were at that time was considered to be deplorably low. Last year the benevolence totaled $2,600 and this year the entire report totaled $1,500,000. Home and foreign mission work, education and caring for the aged, for the entire year.
The Rev. W. W. Allen, vice president of the Convention called a special meeting of the leading local ministers here in conjunction with the Board, devoted to the Financial Board, to devise ways and means to correct the methods of collection for benevolent purposes and thereby raise the convention f-
Quietest Convention
It was the consensus of opinion that the convention was the quietest and most important issue of the whole conference was the changing administration when the Rev. D. G. Mack was appointed in 1965 to years of active service in trying to organize the Baptist hosts in the state. While it is thought that he was the first to be appointed, it is intimated that the lack of cooperation that he has received during the past year will keep him from participating in part in Baptist affairs in the future.
Minsters have pledged hearty support to the Rev. A. J. Payne and the new administrative Minster Made. Other changes made include the following officers in the B.Y.P. U. Convention; William Keck, president; Ms. Shannon, vice president; Mrs. Saddle Shannon, corresponding secretary; Miss Montress Ford, recording secretary; Miss D. Biggers, treasurer. All officers were re-elected in the Women's Auxiliary. They include: Mrs. Ertie T. Allen, president; Mrs. Bertha Winston, president; Mrs. Blackwell, 2nd vice president; Mrs. Wilhelmina Vinson, recording secretary; Mrs. Melvina Amy, cor. secretary; Mrs. Adelina Craylev, treasurer; Mrs. Florence Fonberger was elected assistant secretary.

PASTORS DISCUSS
YOUTH PROBLEM
"World Can Beat Church Furnishing Amusements," Says Rev. Curry.
STICK TO RELIGION
Only Appeal Is to Stick to Christianity, Ministers Decide
A statement that the church by supplying the right environmental influence could win and hold all these issues by the Rev. A. J. Mellchell, elicited a live-ly discussion in the M. E. Ministers meeting at Sharp Street Church, Wednesday.
The Rev. Mellchell spoke from the subject, "Neglected Agencies of Religious Education and Stewardship."
Stressing the ultimate value of Christianizing the children, the speaker stated that the greatest character came from religious and Godly homes where religious instructions entered into their lives in childhood. He urged that the church, in neglecting the young, is sustaining a great loss. The Rev. P. E. Johnson said that the church is losing the youth principally through the group of older people who turn are disgusted with the practice of street preacher's using children to beg. He urged as an offset to this that pastors take their congregations and print the street without takellections.
Fraternal Organizations
The Rev. Ernest Lyon said that the youth are being drawn from the church by fraternal organizations like the Young Men's Christian and dren and teach them the principles of secret fraternalism. The Rev. G. E. Curry told the miniseries compete with the world in attracting the young and lowering its standards when the world can beat it at the job. The church, he said, has a bet on holding up strict Christian duties than by accustoming them to amusements which the world can better afford. the狱al the Rev. Mitchell said that the church can save both young and old for its service by going out and Christianizing all areas of the community.

Factory Is First Fruit of Fact Finders Conference
A lot of the Fact-Finders who went to the conference in Durham are back home for more formal wear, usual neckwear. A quiet little brown gentleman walked into the hotel Biltmore with a splendid assortment of fine looking lices over them, then at 25c each. They were gobbled up with alacrity and few visitors came away without having bought from four to a dozen of the ties. And the ties to be made from some recently invented finely woven cotton, milled in Durham, and that Andrew Marsh and his wife of 1507 Fayetteville street are from this new goods in their home.
The conference marked the date in the change of the fortunes of the Marsh family, for he not only obtained a distribution of business through the conferences, but he accepted orders from the Harmon Drygoods Store through the son of the proprietor for six gross on a wholesale basis, six gross on a wholesale basis, and six gross for delivery to the Mercantile concern he controls in Charleston, West Virginia. From a representative of the small business unit of the department of Commerce, Mr. Marsh received considerable interest in his business on a more effective scale and how to reach still other markets for what is a meritorious piece of merchandise. Mail order handling was particularly thoroughly explained to him. Thus was a seeker of merchandise, a meritorious fact. What can tell how far-reaching its effects may be?

White Waitresses Get R.R. Men's Jobs
GHIAGO-An order, replacing all cooks, waiters, and pantrymen on the Northern Pacific Railroad with white women was issued last week by the superintendent of Dinkin Car. Service.
Reason for the discharge of the race employees is said to be due to the failure of the superintendent to troubles, although the superintendent in an announcing the change stated that the women were being employed because "they are experts in food and cooking." The experiment, if successful, will be adopted by all the big roads in the transcontinental chain, though it is understood that Pullman porters are retained on the Great Northern.

And only the vacant chair.
By her devoted children, LUCY BOWEN, JOHN H. T., and MARY BURTON.
Our hearts still ache with sadness,
dear grandmother.
By her Granddaughter, BLANCE
JACKSON, granddaughter, JUANITA
JACKSON.
You are gone, but not forgotten, dear brother...
COE—In loving memory of our dear husband and father. Livous A. Coe, who passed away one year ago May 29, 1928.
Taking stream of life rollons on. But still the vacant chair. Recalls the love, the voice. Recalls the one who once sat there.
Sadly missed by his wife. ANNLE FELS and adren. EDGAR LIVOUS and MAY.
HALL—In loving memory of our dear husband, the father-in-law. Hall, Hall who entered into eternal rest two years ago, June 5th.
A loving father, true and kind.
What a beautiful memory he left behind;
Upright and beautiful in all his ways
Wonderful character to the end of his life.
In our hearts your memory lingers
Sweetly, tender, fond and true;
There is not a day, dear mother,
That we do not think of you.
BY HER CHILDREN.
For all of us she did her best.
God grant her eternal rest.
BY HER GRANDCHILDREN.
KERR—In sad and loving memory of our dear wife and mother, Mary J. Kerr, who went to dwell with Jesus, May 28, 1827.
No clever, brilliant thinker, she,
With college record and degree.
She had not known the paths of fate.
The world had never known her name;
She walked on old-trodden ways—
The vallys of the yesterday.
Home was her kingdom, love her dower;
She sought no other wand of power.
To make home sweet, bring heaven near;
To win a smile and wipe a tear,
And do her duty day by day.
In her own quiet place and way.
Around her childish hearts were,
turned,
As around some reverend saint
And following hers, the childish feet Were led to ideals true and sweet And found all purity and good In her divinest motherhood. She kept her faith unshadowed still; God ruled the world in good or ill, Men in her creed, were brave and true And true, the mother pure as pearls of dew; And life for her was high and grand, By work and glad endeavor spanned. This sad old earth's a brighter place All for the sunshine of her face; Her very smile a blessing sent, And hearts were happier where she went; A gown clear-eyed messenger To whisper love—thank God for her. By her husband, CHARLES H. KERL, and children, FLORINE, MARIE, ESTELLE, HENDERSON and FRANKLIN.
MANING—In loving remembrance of my dear maint. Mrs. Ella Manning, who departed this life two years ago, May 22, 1927.
Just two years ago today,
My love and stay was taken away;
One by one our hopes grow brighter,
Near the shining shore,
For I love the river,
My dear aunt has gone before.
Sleep on, dear aunt.
Sleep on and take your rest,
We loved you well, but God loved you best.
Sadly missed by niece and husband, MR. AND MRS. HANDY ORES, Philadelphia.
ROEBACK—In loving memory of our dear mother, Mary Ann Roeback, who departed this life seven years ago, May 21, 1922.
Not lost, but gone before;
She lives with us in memory,
And will forevermore.
By her daughters, ETTA and KATHERINE
TUCKER—In sad and loving remembrance of a devoted friend, Samuel H. Tucker, who departed into eternal life May 4th, 1922.
Just when days seemed brightest and best.
Our Savior called you to eternal rest.
No matter how bitter, how great our loss,
Gave thanks us the grace to bear the cross.
By a devoted friend, MARY JENKINS.

Mrs. M. H. Davis Tells of Her Work With Bishop Davis in Liberia, Africa.
PRIZE WINNERS HEARD
Victors in State-Wide Decla- lation Contest Please.
The schools of Freetown, West Africa, under the rule of the English are far superior to those found in Monrovia and other parts of Liberia where the American influence predominates, Mrs. M. H. Davis, wife of Bishop Davies, told the members of the Afro-American Club Saturday.
In comparing the two towns Mrs. Davis said that there was a higher degree of culture found in Monrovia than in Freetown, although the population of the latter city was about 75,000, while Monrovia had but 5,000.
Mrs. Davis praised the work of the Culture Club composed of a group of women, many of whom had been trained in the schools of America, for its wonderful work in it, helping to clean up the city streets during the yellow fever epidemic that was raging when Bishop Davis arrived to over his work.
She took on her praise of Bishop Brooks for his work in building the Monrovia College and declared that the results of his efforts would stand as a monument to the A.M.E. Church and has done much to create a higher respect for American realities of Liberia, and foreign countries.
She said that among the first things that she found upon her arrival in Liberia were copies of the Afro-American, which are read and re-read with much interest, as they were note, the dark continent, and a connecting link between the re- and America.
Others who appeared on the program were Miss Laura Wright and Master Burton Lisbv of Idfare de Grace, winner of the State-Wide Declaration contest, who delivered their winning recitations for her edification, Mrs. John M. Games, Mr. and Mrs. John Woodhous and Mrs. Annie M. Wortham, of Detroit also spoke.
Girl's Charge Is False; Man Released
After being held in the city jail on charges of murder for two weeks, waiting the arrival of authorities from Lockhart, S.C., where he was said to be wanted. Neal Thompson, 32, 74 eGorge street, was released from custody when South Carolina authorities notified local police Friday he was not wanted for the crime.

MINISTERS TO WAR ON PUBLIC SPOONERS
A.M.E.'s Appoint Committee to Investigate Lounging in Public Squares.
Following a speech by the Rev. Frank Hertzelf deploring the conduct of young girls and men in the Lafayette and Harlem Squares before the A.M.E. Ministers meeting t Bethel Monday, a committee was appointed to investigate the situation.
The Rev. Hertzelf declared that the girls most of whom are of school age, are open in their unbecoming conduct with the apparently indiscreet men. The committee appointed to look into the condition are the Revs. R. A. Green, H E. Walden, W. A. Harris, F. Hertzelf, E. T. Anderson, Thaddeus Copeland, and Carl Murphy, editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN.
The Rev. Mr. Grtzelf declared that the work of protecting the girls will have to be carried further than the situation in the public squares. He is aware, he said of instances of Junior High School girls being entertained in houses of questionable repute.
