BY MARY ALICE KNEECE
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. — "Ever since I married you, he said explanation for him and had to be a slave to his family's customs. We have always been poor, and constant quarreling with his family didn't make that happen."
I was sixteen when I married Amon Kneece, the son of Mrs. James Fox and the latter's first husband.
EPILEPTIC PITS.
"When I married him I didn't know he was subject to epilepsy fits and was treated with an anticonvulsant. Wanted on $12 a week. Almost from the first week his family instigated quarrels between us. They said I was extravagant on $12 a week.
When my baby, Vivian, was about to be born we had no money. Amon worked in his stepfather's candy kitchen and got very little. Amon asked them to send me to hospital, but it refused. When I nearly dead, they let me go to the charity ward. The doctor told me that under no circumstances should I do any kind of work that year.
WORKED LIKE LABORER.
"Before the year was over I was working because money be came scarier and scarier. Amon's mother wouldn't help. Sometimes Amon's stepfather gave us some money on our promise not to tell me."
"Things were going pretty bad. Amon was in no condition to know what he was doing. And his family aggravated his crossword. If we were friendly at the time and he quarreled with his mother, his mother would make it miserable for me.
NO MOVIES.
"For five years I underwent every kind of humiliation and misunderstanding from the rest of the community. They didn't believe in amusements. I couldn't go to the movies if wanted to. Amon didn't like me to read.
An April Amon was fixing a toy windmill to put on top of the house. Vivian childishly started playing with him. He told her to go away. When she continued playing, he kicked her.
THROUGH RIGHT THEN.
"Right then I was through. I decided that he should never have an opportunity to kick my baby again. The next day I went into town to back I was to buy a mule. All the money that ever came in we immediately spent in buying horses or mules.
Iook Alexander Ellis, hired color-men with me to take the horse home. Vivian was beside me. When I was through with my business, I said, 'Alee, go home now. I'm not coming.' Alec asked me where I was going, and I told him New
"He was very surprised, and asked whether he couldn't come, too, to drive. I thought nothing more about it. I considered whether he could drive sometime. So we three left Augusta. He said he would like to see his mother in Philadelphia.
HOW LOVE CAME.
"He had never spoken to me before without me speaking first. On the trip, he was so sympathetic to me, very friendly towards him, and Vivian adored him. When we got here, we somehow knew we were in love with one another. For the first time we lived together.
"I didn't enough money to put Vivian to boarding in a white home and Alec's aunt suggested the Coleman's. I took Vivian there and visited her several times that week we kept clean and seemed happy.
"I was confident she was in good hands. I kept her there while I searched for a job. Alec wasn't making much money. One day before we arrived, the policeman took Vivian away."

PHILADELPHIA PA — "Ever since I married Amon," she said, in explanation. "I've worked like a labron for him and had to be a slave to his family's customs. We have always been poor, and constant quarrelling with his family didn't make the situation better.
When I was ten, when I married Amon Kneece, the son of Mrs. James Fox and the latter's first husband.
EPILEPTIC FITS.
"When I married him I didn't know he was subject to epileptic fits and was suffering from shell shock. We married on $12 a week. Almost from the first week, the arrests between us. They said I was extravagant on $12 a week." "When my baby, Vivian, was about to be born we had no money. Amon worked in his stepfather's office and asked little Amon asked them to send me to a hospital, but they refused. After seven weeks, when I was nearly dead, they let me go to the charity war. The doctor told me that under his doctor's care I do any kind of work, that year.
WORKED LIKE LABORER
WORKED LIKE LABORER.
Before the year was out I was working like a laborer. Money became scarer and scarcer. Sometimes Amon's stepfather gave us some money on our promise not to tell Amon's mother.
"Mrs Fox, Amon's mother, would help me when I tried to find work to help things along. I took a job as housekeeper with a man by the name of Bliss. At that time Amon was confid in the Lenwood Hospital for children. On May Bliss, a widower, wanted to take his children to see his mother. He said it would be lonesome for me in the vacant house overnight in the area. Then I took Vivian with me and we went to his mother."
STRUCK BY HUSBAND.
"When we came back to Augusta, there was the whole clan of Foxes in a car outside and sent me to see us come back too. Amon was so excited by the things they told him that he knocked me down from the front conscious and tried to take Vivian from me. I still lay in the street when Amon, who had gone away with the family, came running back. He asked me to forgive him, that he had not his father. PUT IN FERTILIZER BY HAND.
"I forgave him and managed somehow to have him released from Lenwood hospital. I promised to be responsible for his actions although the doctors said it was not safe for the children of the streets.
"We had a little farm two miles from town. I helped Amon on the farm and often had to put the fertilizer in the soil. I was not sure if the baby became ill. Just by chance, a baby of mine was passing. I didn't take time to dress the baby, but took her right to the hospital which was in the basement of her mother's home.
"After the baby was in the hospital, I went to the Fox home and asked them to take me into town. I could buy it, but I were preparing to go to a seaside resort. They refused me."
WOULDN'T GET PENSION
"Why should they give Mrs. Fox for the custody of Vivian??" asked Mrs. Kneece, and she doubted her? If the judge won't give Vivian to me, I pray he won't let Vivian go back.

NO INJUSTICE.
"I haven't done anyone any injustice." Mrs. Kneece's eyes were filled with tears. Alec's eyes were filled with tears. He. If it weren't for me being separated from my baby, it would be delicious peace, after life at home. "I fight for my baby. And if the judge won't give her to me, I will plead with him not to send her back to that place. I will give him to me I do anything." "I'd even leave Alec and work myself to death to keep her."

WOMEN EMPLOYED AS MENIALS IN CONGRESS
WASHINGTON, D. C. (ANP)—Not one race woman is employed but as a mental or charwoman in the U. S. Capitol and Congressional office buildings. This is especially true in the House of Representatives side of the capitol and the house of the judiciary. Just before extra session, just before the opening of women was employed scrubbing marble floors and cleaning paints, under the direction of white women, and a few were employed in the aisle of the capitol building. But in the rest rooms all of the female employees are white.
On the Senate side of the capitol and in the congressional office building, there is somewhat different. One or two of the rest rooms have colored women attendants and the senate lunchroom has white waitresses with a few colored kitchen
The offices of the senate offer no employment to Negro women, and to see the face of a colored woman employ in and about the senate or the office building, would be a most unusual sight.
Few Census Jobs for Negroes-Fear
WASHINGTON, D.C. (C.N.S.)—Race leaders sense in a proposition to have all employees in the taking of the new census numbers. The system of Service Commission a direct move to shut out Negro workers. Many fear the determined effort of the Democrat to force the system to require civil service examinations of all employees, including the enumerators, field agents, and supervisors, which is in striking contrast to the system taken in the Democratic administration when Republicans were in a minority. The Bureau of the Census estimates that there are more than 123,000,000 inhabitants in Continental United States and that it will require 100,000 enumerators—the official door to door canvassers and surveyors to make the actual count and record on schedules the names and other data of each individual. It is estimated that it will take them from fifteen days to complete and will cost approximately $11,000,000.

NO STUDENTS APPLY FOR "DRY" JOBS
Howard Men Could Have $5 a Day Job With Prohibition Unit.
COMMISSIONER TALKS
Has Money to Pay Special Informers, He Says.
WASHINGTON, D.C. (CNS.)
—Several Howard students who have been approached with the proposition to earn five dollars a day as a dry informers, have refused such offers preferring work in foundries or other laborious and mental tasks.
In casting doubt for avenues in which they may some trade or sell their labor for the summer vacation months, students learned that young, college men are more likely to enforce the dry laws, at salaries ranging from five to ten dollars a day. But the dry enforcement information work, which consists of finding unnecessary sources of liquor for the regular raid, raid, and from time to time attructed Yale men, is "nauseating and distasteful" to Howard students.
None Apply
So far as can be learned, not one Howard student has been attracted by this form of employment whereby they earn easy money with which to return to school next fall. "I hold no brief claim," claims one, "but Prohibition is one thing and the way it is being enforced is another."
Commission Explains
Dr. James M. Doran, prohibition commissioner, when approached on the subject, neither denied nor admitted that any general policy had been adopted or any offer made to college students; however, this was not a new scheme and explains that college students have proved valuable to dry raiders before. He cited a date of a year ago when two Yale men were enlisted in agent John S. McCormick's efforts to obtain evidence against a road house near New Haven. He claims that when the two students finished their work the operators of the resort were convinced with little trouble in the Federal
Special Employees
"We have means to pay special employees who are engaged temporarily for specific purposes," the commissioner said. "If an administrator or deputy has a special case and needed such workers it would be proper to employ such contract men, who are selected with great care." No spotting or tip-off system will be maintained, however, and all such employees will be on a temporary basis."

Homage Paid To Soldiers Interred In Foreign Lands
WASHINGTON, (C.N.S.) — The graves of all American soldiers who died in the World War and are interred in France and England were decorated on Memorial Day, May 30, and a prayer said over them by their armies—arms or other grateful compatriots.
Whether lying in thousands grouped in the magnificently kept cemeteries at Belleau Wood, Romagne, Thiancouen, Bois-Français, or Belleau, they fell along the slopes of war-trods hills, deep ravines or thick forests, all were remembered.
Arranged under the auspices of the American Museum, founded in 1920 for the decoration of American soldiers' graves abroad, care was taken that upon every American soldier's grave in France were placed small French and American fences enclosed with poppies from Flanders Fields and a small bouquet of natural flowers.

Constipation Often Causes Sickness
"About fifty years ago, says Mr. Lewis G. O'Hields, of Portersville, Ala., "my mother gave me the first dose of Black-Draught, and I have taken it ever since, when I needed a medicine for constipation. I have used this remedy all my marital life, in raising my children. "I have used Black Draught for heartburn, as have had spells of this, as kind off and on, for years. This follows indigestion, and indigestion comes close constipation. "I have used that the best way of dealing to trouble is to begin taking Black-Draught in time. It relieves me of dizziness, tightness in the chest and backache.
"By getting rid of impurities, Black-Draught helps to keep the system in good order. I always keep it in the home, and have recommended it to many people in my time. I always say a good word for a good medicine." Sold by all druggists.

"I THINK Cardui is the best builder on the market—I can say this for it was a help to me," writes Miss Margaret Burris, 802 E. Vine Ave. Knoxville, Tenn.
"During the last year in high school, I felt very weak and I had no friends told me about my friends told that I try it. When I went to college I weighed 95 pounds, so I decided to try Cardui, and when the school year was up, I weighed 130 pounds.
"I would advise any person who is nervous, weak and in run-down condition to take Cardui for I am sure it will do them."
"After taking the Cardui, I am not nervous any more, and I am in the best of health."

Mrs. Kneece, as she said Alek was treating her right, glanced over at Alek Ellis, who smiled a smile of satisfaction. "Is it true Mrs. Kneece that your family is wealthy?" we asked. FAMILY NOT WEALTHY. "It is not true; my wife was poor. She could not support my father after my mother died. My husband received a compensation of $100 every month from the government of which Mrs. Fox, his mother, made him save $20 every month. We lived in Augusta and Augusta and Alek worked as our chauffeur and handy man for the past six years," said Mrs. Kneece.
NO MORE SOUTH
"Do you ever intend going back South?" "No," she replied, "I do not ever intend going back South."
"If you are granted, legal custody of your child, then please help you in mind for the child's welfare?" was the next question.
"I intend to send the child to some worthwhile institution where I may go to see her every once in a while." Then Ells, who had been silent all the while, jerked out a sudden question.
CAN ANYTHING BE DONE?
"Do you think that anything can be done with us about this?"
We looked thoughtful and then answered, "I didn't believe anything could be done about this case by the police."
KNOW LAW
Mrs. Kneece smiled and said, "I know enough about the law to know that they could send us back South for the white slave law if I left Georgia in Ellis's company, but I didn't." I ordered him to drive me north as I took his employer and he was only following orders, so I don't see how they could possibly build a case out of this."
"What do you think of race prejudice?" we asked.
TWO IN LOVE.
"In the South it is stronger than it is in the North but I don't see why there should be any hard feelings on anyone's part if two people, like me, are prejudiced. This race prejudice is all foolish, I think," said Mrs. Kneece.
Continuing she stated that she thought all this holding a man down because of his color was pure nonsense. Mrs. Kneece made this statement with a good bit of feel-

She then sank back in bed while Ellis, who had remained motionless up until now in a chair by the window smoking cigarette after cigarette, told his life story. He clutched the lapels of his coat as he began his
BORN IN S. CAROLINA
"I was born in Edgeview, South Carolina 21 years ago. I had never been North before and I thought I would like to try the North as have heard much talk about it. I have a mother, Mrs. Mandy Ellis, a cook who lives at 910 Sartain street, in this city. She is about 35 years old.
WANTS TO BE LET ALONE.
"I never intend going back and I wish people would forget this so Alice and I can live in peace."
He and Mrs. Kneece then chook him with me and I made my departure.
As I reached the first floor landing, the owner of the house, Mrs. Margaret Foley, said, when asked about the car she was driving on May 24, "I thought she was a mulatto; you know you never can tell."
FIGHT FOR CHILD.
The fight for the child began in Municipal Court before Judge James Galloway. Mrs. J. S. Fox, white, of Augusta, step-mother-in-law of Mrs. Kneece, seeks custody of the Kneece baby for the sake of her husband and son, whose husband is a mental wreck.
MENTAL WRECK.
Mrs. Fox informed the court that her son is a mental wreck because of the disappearance of his child. She assured the court that if the child is returned to him, his recovery must. Miss Lillian Lee, probation officer, testified that the car in which the couple came North, a Chevrolet, was confiscated from the house of Ellis, to whom he'd carried the car, was arrested while transporting liquor.
Mrs. Kneece was ill and not at all in the car, and adjourned until Wednesday in order to hear her testimony.

It is also shown by the uncontricted testimony of several witnesses one a life member of the church proportion of the copied paraphernalia, regalia, emblems and insignia used by the Negro order, its lodges and members had purchased through members of the white church a lodge of that order preparatory to moving into new quarters sold the paraphernalia and regalia used in the old quarters to the lodge of the Negro order in the same church a sword says of a fraudulent intent on the part of the Negro order or of a purpose on its part to induce anyone whether Mason or non-Mason to believe it was the white order to that they
On the contrary it is shown that this Negro order always held itself out as entirety distinct from the white order and is open only to the members of the Negro Masonic fraternity. "True there is much imitation, but this is shown to have been in the nature of emulation rather than false pretense. Evidence discloses the Negro order promptly entered its constitution into the Congressional Library under an act of Congress provided for copyright, that its members were authorized to exist and their memberships; and that its nearly national meetings assembled in large numbers march in parade wearing its regalia. "Imperial Power of the white order address at their national meeting in 1894 called attention to the existence of the Negro order and to its use of name, title, etc. like those of the white order, in which it was one in which the Negro rider had established lodges. The address was published and distributed among the members of the white order. At that time, the same pretenses was similar mention of the Negro order and its activities.
The white lodge, the court says, un doubtedly manifests strong objection to the imitative acts of the colored but the objection comes too late to overcome or weaken the force of the contention and the order during the time preceding. After that period and seeming accusingness, it is too late to resuscitate the original exclusive right for which the white order is now contending.

The students ciled 17 points against the administration of the sexuality charging that some of the white faculty members belonged to the Klu Klux Klan, that many resided in sections where colored people were present. The cadet system was not on a competitive basis, that they should have the right to wear civilian clothes Saturday to Monday and should be able to dance, play and students time during the year.
Striker pointed out that Major Allen Washington is the only member of the administration board which is composed of 15 white members of the faculty.
The following ten white teachers were named as unsatisfactory to the student body. . . Whitmore Brown in charge of building; Constantine Gilman, assistant director of the Trades School; Pearl Perguyau; printing; William Rawlins, house painting; Frederick J. Robinson; Horatio W.

Some of these teachers were said to be without college degrees, without high school training or without sympathies with the colored students.

Diplomas To 188
Dr. Jas. Gregg presented the degree of bachelor of science to fifty-seven graduates from the college, diplomas to nine, and a year college courses, diplomas to fifty-nine graduates of the Academy and diplomas to thirty-six completing the work in the trade school. Dr. Gregg also distinguished to Lelia May Anderson, Zanesville, Ohio; Bertha C. Boschule, Thomas, VI.; Joseph Fletcher, Thomas, VI.; Joseph Fletcher, Peekskill, N.Y.; and Mamie L. Powell, Whiteville, N.C. A diploma with distinction was given to Austin A. Lewis of the Acadamy, and to James A. Lewis of the Acadamy, who has won deserved recognition. Choosing as his topic "Thinking in Terms of the Ultimate." Professor Hancock said: "The struggle for existence is shown from the physical to the physical."
Race Survival
The survival of the Negro, he declared, is not a foregone conclusion to thoughtful men. "There is no more uncertain proposition in the realm of race relations of the United States than the future of the Negro within twenty years," the Negro in this country may have to face a change in the white man's attitude toward manual labor. he asserted. There is a danger that the Negro's standard of living will outstrip his means of subsistence, because the Negro has not a man that outlives him, which forms the groundwork of a substantial economic life. There is a danger in the vaunting of Negro progress and

the consequent alienating of white friends. To survive, he said, the Negro must be just a little better than his white competitor, for unemployment is bound to be more and more a part of the industrial order and the burden of life upon the Negro. The race question is now entering on its economic phase—the most stubborn of them all.
First Graduates
Five members of the class of 1878, the fifty year class, were introduced by Dr. Gregg, and these representatives of one of Hampton's colleges were invited by the audience with proclaimed applause. They are: Ferdinand D. Lee, Washington, D. C.; Robert A. Stewart, Washington D. C.; Geo. A. Qwaind, Indiana, D.; Va., Charles Pindel, Virginia, Va., and Mrs. Amelia Pride, Va.

With the $50,000 a nucleus of an endowment, Bishop Brooks will be possible to do away with a nearly drive for educational funds which has been the policy of the school for the 48 years of its existence.
The Bishop said.
"I fail to see how the faithful ministers and laymen have kept up this struggle for almost a half century and have not lost heart. If you follow my lead the people of Texas shall be ennounced." This burden shall you!"
Five bishops, clergymen and educators from all over the country will make a pilgrimage to Bishop Brooks' aqua to be held here in September.

CHURCH OFFICER GETS
WARRANT FOR PASTOR
BOARD OUSTED
Members Vote also to Expel
Secretary and Treasurer.
By Dr. WILLIAM M. PORTER
SPARTANBURG, S.C.—What
promises to be a long factional
fight loomed here last week, when
Elba Shippy, deposed treasurer of
the Mt. Moriah Baptist Church
caused the arrest of the Rev. J.
S. Earle, on a charge of signi-
ng the treasurer's name to a $15
cheeks.
The Rev. Mr. Earle was released
on $500 bail.
Board Suspended
The trouble in the church, it is
said, started some time ago when,
displeased with opposition from a
number of deacons, the Rev. Mr. Earle
called a church meeting at which
the deacons were suspended for sixty
days. Opposition of the deacons
came to the church after membership in
the church began to fall off.
But following the suspension of the deacon board, the secretary and treasurer checked checks as requested, and a meeting called subsequently voted in a new secretary and treasurer. It was then that Mr. Shippy had the pastor arrested on a charge of signing a name to a check some time later fall.
Stormy Meeting
In a meeting called last week, the Rev. Mr. Earle offered a resolution ousting the treasurer for causing a warrant to be sworn out for him. He stated that unless the resolution was passed he would pack up and leave. Police officers were called in to insure order, it was said, and the resolution was ruled passed by the pastor.
Redmonds Not Disbarred;
Charges Trumped Up
JACKSON, MISS.—Declaring that he and his son were taken persecuted by white enemies who used Mrs. Mattie Coleman and daughter as catbaws. Dr. S. D. Redmond will fight to the limit reindictment attempted against him in local court. Redmond and his son were exonerated on charges brought against them to disbar them when the case went before Chancellor Stricker sometime ago. Following this Mrs. Coleman brought charges of extortion to which Dr. Redmond denounced after killing Mrs. Coleman who were no Neros on the jury. The case grows out of the handling of a $110,000 estate and in which Mrs. Coleman charges that the doctor charged her a fee of $1,000 when the chancellor had stimulated $275. Dr. Redmond declares that the $275 were made for work done in Chicago and other places where the estate was held.

SHUN GREED; DR JOHNSON TELLS HOWARD GRADS

Baccalaureate Sermon.
WASHINGTON, D. C. Graduates of Howard University were told in the baccalaureate sermon preached Sunday by Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, university president, to shun greed and cynicism and render a service of love to the people. The services were held in the gymnasium. There was not even standing room on the inside of the gymnasium-armyment building, the vestibule being crowded with people who sought to hear the sermon and see the graduates. One woman felted She was stained in the rear of the gymnasium. Stairs quickly and guarded her outside where the fresh air revived her. Dr. Johnson was not disturbed in his sermon.
PROCESSION
A procession, which moved from the front of the Carnegie library into the gymnasium, preceded the exercises. Invocation was offered by the Rev. Samuel Judson Porter, pastor of the First Baptist Porter, pastor of the First Baptist Church, and praised by Dr. Johnson. The university chooses anthems, "The Lord Is My Light" (Parker) and "Sanctus" (Gounod). Dr. Johnson began by expressing his joy to the graduates because of the completion of their courses. "I rejoice moreover," he said, "because everyone of you is prepared to meet some urgent social need of the people." There will hardly be one of you who will not have a call by the people to serve; for there is not a single thing, for which we prepare students here, which is fully supplied in the life of the people, dentists, pharmacists, teachers, ministers, sinners, poets, musicians. We are poor people in all these things."
SOCIAL JUSTICE.
Dr. Johnson made a plea for social justice. "The people need justice in their personal relationship with their intelligent and able men and
He advised the graduates that they are "going out to deal with a very humble people, a people still economically helpless, not able to supply themselves with labor and able to manufacture and change with one another, a people whose real interests are still not represented in the public order, and in a larger portion of this country they live in a civil state existing by violence and deliberately depriving them of what they actually need." Colored Americans, he said, are living in the richest and one of the most able communities in the world. "They have possibilities that have not been touched by any loving hands. They will never be satisfied, as they want to know that they are living up to the fullest possible potential of their individual and collective lives."
The people need leadership, he stated, "hungry to have them realize their full possibilities and willing to serve them in their alms."
POWER CONTROL
He reminded his hearers that "we still live in a world in which the men of power control the people but do not, except in rare cases, love the people." He declared that the greatest need in this world is to powerful group of people who love the people.
He asserted that "the greatest danger which confronts our country today is not the danger of petty crime; it is the danger of enormous and farsighted power; the greatest power control the technical appliances that control human life, who would throttle and choke and smother the life of the people." "Wealth; money; luxury, power—economic, political and social power—control great masses in control great bases in enterprises, government, giving secret and dictate division to the elected."
Dr. Johnson said that "it is probably true that in the history of the human race, there are only a handful of men who have ever tried deeply and truly to love the people in their collective mind who have not at any time or other suffered only at the hands of men who have taken advantage of the people but have suffered at the hands of the people themselves."
MENCKEN
It is impossible for Nietsche or Mencken or anybody, he said, "to tell what can come out of a life built on the experimental basis of love. No one knows, but you can come out of love except the lover."
In conclusion he urged the graduates to start out on a pathway of loving service to the people in order that they might come into a new life.
A solo, "Done Made My Vow," was sung by Lester Dorsey. Benediction was pronounced by the Rev. Ernest Clarence Smith, pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist church.

CHRISTIAN BODY LOST MEMBERS IN PAST DECADE
national Membership.
By Robert A. Pelham
(Exclusively for the APO-AMERICAN-
GROUP)
WASHINGTON, D. C. (CNS) — The Christian Church (General Convention) is a denomination which had in 1926, according to reports of the Bureau of Census for the Census of Religious Bodies, 1926, sixty-eight Negro church organizations with a total membership of 7,312 and church edifices valued at $285,100.
In 1916, when the denomination was known as the Christian Church American (the Christian Convention) there were 111 churches with a total membership of 10,012 and church property valued at $156,226.
Decrease
This marked decrease in membership and No. of churches reporting is believed to be due to the fact that three of the conferences failed to report to the Bureau of the Census and to their connection officers. It is possible therefore that the decrease which seems so goring is not existent. It is also possible that these three conferences have withdrawn from the connection and are identified elsewhere. In either event the average membership per church organization has increased however, showing that the increase in the denomination has not waned nor is it falling in its hold. The interest of its members. The average membership per church for 94 while in 1916 it averaged 91 and an increase of about twenty per cent per church.
Roots In Revolution
The period following the War of the Revolution was characterized by a general spiritual declension. This again was succeeded by a revival period during which, especially in what were then western and southern sections, denominated lines were frequently ignored, and members of different churches united in evangelical and sacramental services. In some cases there were efforts to enforce ecclesiastical discipline, which were not so violent, while in others entirely independent movements were started, not so much antagonistic to, as independent of, ecclesiastical organization.
Began In Virginia
A ploneer in this movement was the Rev. James O'Kelly, a Methodist minister in Virginia, who organized the "Republican Methodists" which in 1794 resolved to be known as "Christians" only taking the Bible as their guide and discipline, and accepting no test of church fellowship other than Christian charismatic. In 1890 the denomination was listed as Christian (Christian Connection) and it included 63 colored churches at $23,500 with 4,989 members. In 1906 they continued to be known by the same name and had increased to 92 churches owning property valued at $69,505 with 7,545 members.
Named Changed
This name did not entirely satisfy and in 1916 the conference adopted "Christian Church (American Christian Convention)". At this time they had 111 Negro church organizations which were located in 3 States as follows: Pennsylvania; 1; North Carolina; 70; Virginia; 40. These had a total membership of 10,012 and owned church property valued at $156,225. The once again changed their name and in 1922, became known as the Christian Church (General Convention).
No One Barred
This denomination does not bar any follower of Christ from membership because of difference in theological belief. Baptism is not made a requisite to membership, although it is often urged upon believers to promote the spirit of unity among all Christians. Of the 18 urban churches four are in Baltimore, six in New York City, two in Jersey City, and six in cities of North Carolina. North Carolina leads in membership, Maryland 2nd and Virginia is 3rd.
Table 1, is the general summary of the statistics of these Christian Churches for the year 1926, showing the distribution between urban and rural territory with comparative figures for 1916 and 1906.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (C.N.S.)—The National Council of the Congregational churches in convention in Detroit, Michigan voted Wednesday for a merger between the council and the General Convention of the Christian Churches.
While there have been several unions before this they have really been reunions, healing a split, this is the first union of two large denominations in the United States and it is believed that it will be of vast importance in the development of church work in America.
The union means the aggregation of the 811,696 members of the Congregational Churches. 16,000 of whom are colored, and were surveyed in the Afro-American last week; with the 112,793 of the Christian Church whom 7,321 of the United statistical areas are a brief history of which are shown in this issue and are published for the first time.
The proposed name for the union is the General Council of Congregational Churches. It will hold its first national Conference in 1831.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER
(June 4, 1904)
Justice Grutchfield presides over a police court in Richmond, Va. One day last week, a Negro before him for rape, a white woman by asking him to write a walk with him as he was wished to show her.
had a justice fined the man $50, put him under
the $300 bond for 12 months and then expressed the
regret that he couldn't hang him.
This is a fine sample of southern justice and
chivalry. King Bill, bad as he was, was cert-
arily superior to this man.
Interviewing God
Uncle Tom-Tom" Heflin, United States Democ-
rate senator from Alabama, has interviewed
God Almighty. He said so himself in the Sen-
ate last week while discussing the Census Bill and
the proposal to enforce the Constitution by re-
ducing the representation of Southern States
which disfranchise Negroes.
Says "Tom":
"The white man has never given up
white man's rule to any other race under
the sum. Wherever he plants his
he is master of the situation. We
must go to rule this country. God Alm-
ighty intended we should rule it.
"He made the white man superior to every other race under the sun, and no amount of legislation nor quibbling can improve on God Almighty's handwork."
Anybody who quotes God so exactly must certainly have inadvert an interview with Him. Heffin ought to tell us when and how it took place.
We say this because even a cursory knowledge of history and civilization leads us to predict that in one hundred years, the white man will be born in China, and in three hundred years, out of Africa.
Furthermore, in all the recorded interviews of God with people, black, white, red and brown, we have never yet discovered any orders for whites to rule and colored to play second fiddle. I have never seen the仰望 must have been with HIS almighty god. It was not with OURS, nor with the God of the fathers of all country who wrote in words imperishable, "ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL."
Culture For Service
"If you are imbued with love of the people and are eager for service, you will, like Booker T. Washington, cast your lot in some Alabama wilderness and made a desert blossom like a rook."
"If you want to get most for your services, more and bigger cars, liker and quick economic independence, you'll go to the big cities."
Thus spoke Dr. Mordeckel Johnson, president of Howard University, in a baccalaureate address Sunday.
To this doctrine of "culture for service," also expounded by another great Howard president, new Bishop W. P. Thirkell of the M.E. Church, some 225 student graduates listened for an hour and a half in eager silence, moved both to tears and to laughter.
One week ago in Baltimore, three Howard men—physician, dentist and pharmacist—paid fines or forfeited collateral after their arrest in a raid. They were charged with disturbing the peace. Police suspended them and fourteen others of gambling. A fourth Howard graduate pleaded guilty of selling two-cent dope tablets for seventy-five cents each.
Dr. Gregg Resigns
Resignation of Dr. James E. Gregg as principal of Hampton, Va. Institute, expected for some time, materialized last week.
Trustees accepted it, and set about seeking his successor, although among alumni and faculty has arisen a wide-spread sentiment that Dr. Gregg shall continue for another year, and if he will, indefinitely.
Although no inkling has reached the public, except through the recent student strike, evolution of Hampton from an industrial and millennial of education and normal school grade into a co-educational and technical institute has not been free from growing pains.
Protests of white Virginians culminated in a state-wide law prohibiting Negroes and whites from sitting, together in public halls where an admission is charged.
This was aimed at Hampton Institute musicals and dramatics, which townfolk frequently attended.
Dr. Gregg retaliated by admitting whites to college affairs by invitation only and indiscriminate seating of the races went on.
The fact that Principal Gregg also entertained Dr. Mordecal Johnson, Dr. Alain L. Locke, and Mr. James Weldon Johnson in his home overnight, something which had not been done by other Hampton heads, affronted Southern sentiment which had become fixed even among older white members of his faculty. These persons held out for strict military discipline of students, for a definite color line and for rigid adherence to the old curriculum. After eleven years of battle, during which, incidentally the endowment has been nearly doubled and Hampton has become the richest man in the country, Dr. Gregg realized His loss to the Negro and to education would be irreparable. We hope he can be led to reconsider, hold on, and, like Grant before Richmond, fight it out along his own lines if it takes all winter.
Oil Millions
The case of Thomas Johnson, Negro Indian, who died insane in a Hopkinsville, Ky. asylum, week after three years of hard labor, $20,000,000 estate in Oklahoma oil lands, once moves the hard lot of the poor, rich black in Dixie.
Three years ago Johnson was a hard work- plasterer, happy because he could save each with a few pennies to pay on the home he only owned.
When came the discovery of government power he was the long sought descendant of Greek Indian upon whose homestead oil fields found.

The case of Thomas Johnson. Negro Indian, who died insane in a Hopkinsville, Ky. asylum, this week, just three years after he inherited 1500 acres state in Oklahoma oil lands, once moves the hard lot of the poor, rich black man in Dixie. Three years ago Johnson was a hard work plasterer, happy because he could save each with a few pennies to pay on the home he only worked at.

spend it. In three years he was sick and insane. Over his grave, the legal fight for the estate goes on; greedy lawyers and court-appointed guardians are sure to get the greater part of it ultimately. Incidentally, it is worth noting that, despite the dozens of race families made wealthy by Oklahoma's oil, not a single one has risen to national distinction. The state's race prejudice and its system of appointing white guardians, even for Negro adults, make a black oil man's life too full of constant·fast control to control his estate—to do anything with it except pay lawyers' fees.

The Fagot Gatherer
(By THE SAGE OF THE PATAPSCO)
He must have been at least 70, as his silver hair indicated, but he was out early on this morning, bending over a pile of twigs which the storm of a previous night had hurried to the sidewalk. He was tying a bunch of them with wire, while his dog, small and shaggy, sat nearby and watched with interest. He moved his movements were slow and feeble was uncouth in appearance, yet because of his age, was not conspicuous, so passersby as well as myself, noticed him only casually; and yet there were some things I could not forget even after I had passed from the sidewalk. I was not in the form the anatomy of our picture, for it was loaded with a burden of empty carts, rags, waste paper, string, rope and a pair of gum boots that were barely sun-proof. The cart itself was not as sturdy as the "One Horse Shay," and without reflection in the least, it was in harmony with its owner.
I cannot know; I can't imagine why the best old man—somebody's son, somebody's father perhaps—was out so early or how he could have filled his cart so quickly with rubbish that was consigned to the dump as useless. I do not know why he found the fallen branches nor of the tree, nor did he sell them, or were they to be utilized as fuel?
But such questions were of small moment to me as I tried to reason why a man of his age was forced by circumstances to stir so enry to eke out evidence. Evidently the poor fellow, whom we must presume was in need, could tell you that fifty years ago he was in his prime, agile and handsome. He worked at a good job. Perhaps he had wastet the major portion of what he had earned in rick and hardship, and he burned at both ends. or he might tell a startling tale of how he, as a father, had reared a group of boys and girls to youth and manhood, educated and clothed them with the sweat of his brow, and taught them how to live. a choice of starving or runmagin trash boxes ahead of the street cleaning department. Who would have the temerity to try and wrest such secrets from the wrinkled breast? Why he, is we do not know; that he we do. We do not know, that we do. We must pass from the prime to the decline, and there are no exceptions. We all pass, but the result of the transition depends upon the ability to save for the day of indigence, among the aged and feeble was considered with pity, but since building and loan stock can be purchased now at less than $1.00 a week, friends and relatives don't stumble over each other, running to your assistance, when you are done for it. Ridiculous, care-free, remember that old age is certain, the world is hard, and there will be a plenty of fagots.
A NATION'S ECHOES
Forgotten stories of the past!
And tell the story of our
Ancestral line!
Oh, speak.
Though the pyramids and scrolls!
And let it speak boldly—
At the sacred shrine.
Oh, speak.

And carve our heritage on
A tree!
Oh, speak.
Through your songs and rites!
And tell the line of our descendency.

Suggests AFO Readers Send DePriest A Postal
Card!
To the Editor and Readers:
Our Congressman, Hon. Oscar DePriest, in a recent letter to me, expressed the desire of having all Negroes read the DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE and UNITED STATES. He feels that by so doing, the race will get a new viewpoint as to the RIGHTS which are granted in the laws of our land. As a result, it will be keener in seeing that the proper interest is shown in these laws affecting our government. Permit me to ask you to send a postal card, pledging to read these two documents. He will know, then, that his group is willing and ready to give him moral support; while he meets the issues which confront him in the Capital. 1913 Catherine-st. ADOLPHINE W.

A Bit of Cheer Up For The President Of Bordantown Industrial Institute.
Principal Leslie Pinkney Hill, of the Cheyney (Pa.) Training School for Teachers, asks an interesting, though provoking question. He says: "What is the explanation of not allowing it to be used?" He bewaits the fact that many jobs colored boys and girls used to find very easy are difficult or impossible to find now. "What is the explanation?" Too much education, or too little? Or is it purely economic?"
I think that the explanation is purely economic. Jobs that the white man and the white woman do, for many years ago, they gladly accept now because of their years of experience and they too, will accept work in the future that they despise and shun now. There are some jobs that are never learned by a individual of any kind in any school except in the school of education. Keep on educating the boys and the girls that we send to you. Book education alone cannot do everything. No kind of education can accommodate great things in day. It requires literary education, vocational education, moral education, experience and last but not least, time—to accomplish big things for any race. Cheer up, Professor! JOHN E. HARRIS.

Custom and Habit Rule the Lives of Men.
To the Editor: I am of thinking, the tabioid form of the AFRO is a decided improvement over the old form. When once we become accustomed to a thing, the slightest change makes it seem cut of place. The AFRO in its present form, is more convenient to read. And if it remains as it is, the slightest change will be the advantage over the old paper, it will be hard to change it back. ARCHIE R. SMITH.
SPIRITUALS
I love to hear the Spirituals sung
That Mammy crooned while at her slavy chores
Although her heart in deepest sadness rung—
that she er for peace impairs
The Righteous One she sees in land
Before the chance of freedom came too late.
They voiced her love for all within the land,
Even to the bondage did dissipate
The futures of her young. Gladly wound she
Have died that posterity have the love
Already she has been in the land
In that "Land of Milk and Honey" bove.
So when of faith and hope, I wish to sing
I croon her plaintive tunes to the Just King.
40th Anniversary
Colored Teachers Supplanted White Teachers in Baltimore Colored Schools 40 Years Ago. To the Editor:
By an exhibit, I understand, the forty years connection of colored teachers with the public schools of the city is being now celebrated. There are colored teachers in our city schools today, who were born into this world since the year 1901, when for the first time the colored high school was offered with a complete faculty of the colored race. It will not be without interest to such, as well as the conditions obtaining about 35 years ago. I have before me the manual for the year 1855, the year of a great political upheaval in this state.

It will not be without interest to such, as well as to many others, if informed of some of the conditions obtaining about 35 years ago. I have before me the manual for the year 1895, the year of a great political upheaval in this state.
At that time, there were only 24 colored teachers in the city, proper, and they were all in the one building. Carrolton and Riggs avenue. Mr. George W. Biddle was principal of the male division, and Miss Pannie L. Barbour was principal of the female division. The names of the several teachers were: Daniel C. Credit, Ellen L. Anderson, Mary E. Taylor, Ada S. Trusty, Henry G. Brown, Charles H. Anderson, Jacob C. Nicholson, Walter Scott, Edw. E. Reed, Pauline L. Brown, A. Adelaide Fossett, Nannie B. Grooms, Violet B. Thompson, Maime C.

There were certain "Amex" Colored Schools. At Calverton and Edmondson; venue was one such school, taught by George B. Murphy, teacher and principal; and taught by Miss A. O. Waters, principal with two assistants, M. Louise Smith and Cecelia J. Johnson. Garrison D. Trusty was the principal of the school, 21st street, near Barclay. He had five assistants, George B. Kelly, William H. Murray, Florence M. Gray, Susan R. Stewart and
There were three might schools, one of them being taught by colored teachers George B. Murphy was principal, assisted by William H. Lee, Cecelia Watkins, John C. Anderson, Susan A. Spriggs, Henry B. Harris and Mary R. Martin. The next year, 1896, Dr. Cargill was elected to the council, and the real fight for elimination of white teachers from the colored schools began. At that time the school board appointed a city councilman appointed a member. Dr. Cargill appointed a certain clergyman a member, but the clergyman was too timid to present himself at the city hall and qualify.
The male principals received a salary of $900 a year, while the female principals received, for the same work $606. Ordinary teachers received $100 a year, and the real constructive change in affairs took place during the year 1901, under Mr. Van Sickle, and the board of nine persons, appointed by a democratic mayor, Thomas Gorman. Mr. Van Sickle took charge, before coming to Baltimore, he made a quiet visit f. Hampton.
A number of Baltimore teachers, who had gone hither to attend the "Hampton Conference," met the new superintendent, and the writer of this were exceedingly friendly, and we know full well of his absolute sincerity with respect to the best interest of our people. I shall quote from one of the letterers: "I am very anxious to have an interview with you upon an important topline. May I request the favor of a call, preferably tomorrow between nine and ten-thirty am. If more convenient than change to meet

Mr. Van Sickel and I, who know well well of his absolute sincerity with respect to the best interest of our people, I shall quote from one of a number of letters from him now before me in my letter file; "I am very anxious to have an interview with you, and I know the favor of a call, preferably tomorrow between nine and ten-thirty a.m. If more convenient for you I will arrange to meet you at some other time and place." In the present prosperity of our schools, let us put a tribute to the name of James H. Van Sickel.

Soul of Struggle
We Have too Many Apostles of Peace at Any Price, Says George W. Lee.
To the Editor:
I read with keen appreciation your editorial on fire. Losing the fight is the most significant article ever written on the subject. I haven't received anywhere a finer and more careful analysis of the story.
I read with keen appreciation your editorial on. "Are We losing the spirit of Struggle?" I read it over a page, ever written on the subject. I haven't received anywhere a finer and more careful analysis of the Negro and his leadership, teachers of teachers and others that have in their hand the shaping of the Negro mind could embrace the ideal running throughout the article, our condition in this country would be transformed almost over time. The conditions are due to our unwillingness to fight.
And, when a people get to the place where there is no ideal in life that they would be able to live, they are in the position of that the sacrifice of life in order that others might have the full enjoyment of life is too great a price; they are fit only for slaves. Simply to live, without the full enjoyment of life, is to sleep to crawl about the earth and finally find an obscure grave is a sad use of life.
If the millions of preachers, of teachers and others that have in their hand the shaping of the Negro mind could embrace the ideal run throughout, without resistance, the course would be transformed almost over night; for, certainly our conditions are due to our unwillingness to fight.
And, when a people get to the place where there is no ideal in life that they would be able to live, without fear of death, and that the sacrifice of life in order that others might have the full enjoyment of life is too great a price; they are fit only for slaves. Simply to live, without the full enjoyment of private time, to sleep to learn about death and finally find an obscure grave is a sad use of life.
APOSTLES OF PEACE
We've got too many Apostles of peace at any price, too much compromise in our racial adjoining communities, too much importance of the other world and too few pointing out the hell of the world in which we now live. There are more than 0.40 million ministers in the world, the purpose of teaching the Negro to depend on God. There is little or no organized effort or investment capital or the purpose of teaching the Negro to depend on God.
We've got too many Apostles of peace at any price, too much compromise in our racial adjunct programs, too many preaching but no glories of other world schools, now pointing out the hell of the world in which we now live. There are more than 40,000 minisisters, 890 preachers, 1,000 teachers, the purpose of teaching the Negro to depend on God. There is little or no organized effort or invested capital for the purpose of teaching the Negro to depend on himself. The minisisters are flying about the country crying patience, and make peace with the majority group: to make peace when we are shut out of all the things worthwhile in our country, and to be limited to a cramped environment, to make peace when we are ostracized in a condition worse than lepers and must live in the back alleys of civilization to be split upon, row over, and be punished. This is a condition that they would have us secure and perpetuate for our children and our children's children. And, so long as this condition exists, one shall love confusion and despise peace.
The professional race adjusters are flying about the country crying patience, and make peace with the majority group; to make peace with our children, we must make peace while we make peace when our children are limited to a cramped environment, to make peace when we are ostracized in a condition worse than lepers and must live in the back alleys of civilization to be spit upon; to brow at the children of our children; a condition that they would have us secure and perpetuate for our children and our children's children. And, so long as this condition exists, I for one, shall love confusion and despise
TWO-FISTED KIND.
The type of leadership that these dark times demand, is the aggressive and two fisted kind that will contend, contend, contend. Fourteen million people, this country have, as a result, established consciousness and the active influence in economics and politics and the wave of changed conditions in American life will carry them on to the port of manhood's heart's desire. And, our great problem, as I see it now, is that we must find a way to live ourselves and create the means to secure our own liberty, is to force consciousness down the throat of the Negro, banish, ostracize and destroy that type of leadership and that kind of effort against the Negro in his effort to find himself.
IN FULL ACCORD.
Im in full accord with the views expressed in this editorial, and believe that a day like this demands action to arouse the senses of responsibility against the Negro, awaken the white man to a sense of greater justice. We are too far behind to seek the palm and the olive branch.

TOM-TOM
Out from the depths of Afric's lands
I hear a song;
It comes from happy men in bands,
Through the city long.
Black men in a harry swing.
Work on with cheer, and gayly sing,
I've got to go a long long way.
But I'll lay down this load some day.
Then comes a change as time goes by,
These men as slaves, to God outery,
To be uplifted;
They asked that He, their freedom bring,
Amy and her sister sing, to God sing,
I've got to go a long dark road.
But some day I'll lay down this load.
And then to God they sang His praise,
The Light to see;
Gave thanks to Him for better days,
But now for equal rights they ask.
And this accompanies their task:
We've got to go to a long, long way.
But I'll lay down the same day,
CLAUDE T, EASTMOND,
We would all fain believe that Mr. Hoover is basically a good man. . . . But so far, the impression which he has made on the Negro has been distinctly unfavorable. . . . The persecution of Nerry Howard by Mrs. Willebrandt, his ardent advocate and spokesman, has caused uneasiness verging on alarm throughout Afro-Americandom.
Mrs. Mabel Willebrandt
Bx. KELLY MILLER
Mrs. Willebrandt has resigned her position as Assistant Attorney General. May joy go with her and peace behind her. She has been the most difficult and at the same time the most offensive females who has ever functioned in the federal government. Induce her to be more assertive, blighted her own path of promotion. Dame runn out had it that she was ambitious to become Attorney General, but her own temperament disqualified her from the position. Balance and poise beyond all other qualifications. Then she aspired, so it is said, to be appointed to a federal judgeship, but her campaign antics made it impossible to secure any confirmatory office.
Relief to Hoover.
Her unrequested withdrawal must bring great relief to Mr. Hoover and to his administration. She has undoubtedly caused the Republican party more embarrassment than any other single instance of Republican advocacy. More than once, both Mr. Hoover and his campaign managers have had to disavow her injunctions utterances.
President Hoover expressed genuine regret at the heart of the issue and yet we feel assured that he experienced a still more general relief at the riddance of his greatest trouble maker. His words of commendation upon withdrawal reminds one of the importance of censure in the same breath: "Cassio. I love tree, but never again be thou officer of mine."
Operated Steam Roller.
Miss. Willebradda is reputed for her judicial ability but she is notorious for her extra-judicial during the 1980s. She worked as a roller at Kansas City with the skill of a seasoned politician, reckless of law or logic. She injected religious and race passion into the presidential campaign, and the race which it will require generations to heal. Her duties in the Department of Justice were chiefly concerned with the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment, and yes she sought and prosecuted a Newman in Mississippi would ordinarily insure conviction by virtue of the race and sex difference between the accuser and the accused. This seems to be the meanest cut of all. And yet, as subsequent to the Mississippi cracker saw through the flimsy game.
Persecuted Perry Howard.
In this transaction, Mrs. Willebrandt not only brought discredit upon the office of the Attorney General, but upon the Hoover administration. Nor can it be said that she misused her office for righteousness. This modern day Portia served as Assistant Attorney General under the well known and far-famed Mr. Daugherty. Not only did she not join in with all of the rest of the world in condemning her offenses, but she actually rushed to his defense. There is nowhere on record one condemnatory word which escaped her over-rightious lips. But Perry Howard must be destroyed because he exacted bullet from office-holders in order to furnish the wherewithal to operate the Grand Old Party machinery in Mississippi. She had him suspended from office, and his salary denied in advance of proof. This violates the fundamental ethics of jurisprudence.
The one troublesome incident which will haunt President Hoover's conscience till his dying hour is the way in which he allowed his subordinate Peter Howard. The Department of Justice found Mr. Howard guilty and imposed the penalty, without trial.
The good intentioned President was also misled into publicly discrediting the curbit while the trial under the jurisdiction of the jury to convict the man who had already incurred the conviction and penalty by the President of the United States. It it be hoped that the elimination of Mrs. Willebrand from the official equation is the first step in the part of the administration towards atonement for this great injustice.
Deep Humiliation
I hold no brief for Perry Howard. His counsel did that efficiently before two Mississippi juries. I am not in this delivery, condemning the wrongness of his counsel. His casting down of Negro leaders from seats of power might be considered a political necessity. But if we concede that he did the wrong thing, it was not necessary to put the ranking Negro political leader in stripes to put his policy in operation. He could not recognize such leadership as dispensers of public office. The Negro race has been spared the deep humiliation of witnessing his stripes by the raw sense of justice of a Mississippi jury against the determination of the Department of Justice of the United States of a woman lawyer and abetted by the President of the United States.
There is not a single citizen in the United States, including Mrs. Howard, who was a lawyer. Howard was guilty of alleged charges beyond that of scores of other politicians, some of whom are approved and others disapproved by the predecessors of the president, those Mississippi juries a debt of undying gratitude. They saved his administration from its crowning act of infamy.
Distinctly Unfavorable. Mr. Hoover's administration is yet young. Dr. Motton tells us that there are good things in store for the Afternoon. He says that Mr. Hoover is basically a good man. He undoubtedly means well for the Negro. But so far, the impression which he has made on the Negro has been negative. The white-yellow Southern policy has put a bad taste in the race's mouth.
The persecution of Perry Howard by Mrs. Willebrandt, his ardent advocate of the unlawful uniness verging on alarm throughout Afro-Americanden. There is yet time to retrieve much of this early unfavorable impression. The appointment of a new position will not avail. The races hopes for some clear declaration of
Average Servant Holds Job Just Three Months
W. B. Day Employment Agency, One of City's Largest, Finds Biggest Rush for Work 30 Days Before Holidays.
Three months is the average length of time Baltimore domestics hold a job, according to William B. Day, Mr. Day's Day's Employment Bureau, 409 W. Hoffman street.
Mr. Day's bureau is one of the city's largest and specializes in domestic service. He employs a secretary and three girls working time at a telephone switch board to answer calls and handle orders. The company occupy an entire three-story building.
Last year Mr. Day's office assigned 6,001 persons to day's work alone. Of this he is especially proud.
"A housewife wants a cleaner, a woman to wash or car or serve a party. We send 6,000 of these in one year and has complaints in only two cases," he said.

"Not only are the servants to be sulted, the madame of the house is also to be satisfied.
In one household the family's favorite dish Maryland fried chicken. They've overlook a lot if the cook can only prepare this dish to their taste. Another employee likes tasty sauces, and still another likes hot bread.

Average pay, Mr. Day said, is $10 a week. Although there are some whose wages are as low as $8.50. Baltimore householder, have come place where they are willing to pay for their work for intelligent domestic servants.
Sixty Ten Cent Married
Sixty per Cent married
"Sixty per cent of domestic women in today are married. Many of them work because they want to add to the family income. With so many men out of employment, a still larger number of women must work to keep the family from the door and pay the rent, housing association or installments on furniture.
Why They Can't Keep Up
"Many reasons are factors to prevent these women from averaging over three months, although we all know cases where servants give satisfactory service to the married woman who works all day in the white home, gets to her family at 8 p.m., gets supper and to bed by midnight. At four she must arise to get breakfast for her husband and start for rent. She can stand this 18 to 20 hour daily grind but so long.
"Another item in the rapid turnover of servants is the fact that, when they need money, they agree to work anywhere. As soon as bills

Nor is the Negro alone in rejoicing at the departure of this California Porta from the Department of Justice. The great majority of us in this rejoicing.

"One of the locally celebrated Harlem sheiks is a piano player in a cabaret who bears a slight rebellion to the lace and lamented Valentine. He is saddle colored with oily jet hair brushed steeky back and a vagabond flair of life. He has his own brilliantly red car and a bouquet of flowers. His wardrobe is the real boom-boom on the Lenox avenue promenade.
"Another figure—and a sorry one—in the Harlem black-and-tans, is the standing and a background of culture. She dresses in the masculine mode and a cigarette is always drooping from her hand. She sits at tables with Negroes and dances with them when asked. Woozy from gin most of the time, is a big spender, but she is a musician.

Week's Poem
By Prisella Leonard
Nuggets and dust upon the surface lie.
But not the true continuing vein
Prisoned in rock, the depths its secret hold.
Not the wide sands beneath the smiling sky.
So life's fine gold, in its exhaustless vein.
Is never by the careless seeker found.
With the rock it lies, in hardness bound.
Quarried with toil and purified by pain.

Rush Periods
After school closes, Mr. Day estimates that 500 school girls will apply for vacation employment.
One month before such holidays as Easter, Christmas and July 4th, women workers apply in large numbers. They want money for springs for Christmas gifts, vacations down South, in the country or at Atlantic City.
"The day after Christmas, Easter and July 4th, we are swamped with orders from housewives whose servants have resigned."
"We service our service is the Day Bureau's motto, which means that good workers are sent out a second and even a third time where they first fail to make good. Housewives are queried after they have employed workers, to be certain that they are satisfied.
Labor and medical service are provided extra at cost.
Every Saturday the Bureau workers meet in round table club to discuss problems which have arisen during the week.
We have the large third floor for frequent meetings of the Day Workers' Association.
If You Ask Me
BY RALP MATTHEWS
Five hundred Elks turned out in a giveaway Day parade, but it wasn't so much to honor the dead soldiers as it was to give their feef a little practice for the long march during the next convention.
These were preliminary maneuvers for the great Bunion Dery in Atlanta, where the famous house is holding her own in a falling arcs contest, Baltimore is right there.
Whenever 800 Elks walk five miles in the broiling sun there is something at the bottom of it and it is generally 1000 sore feet.
Along the line of march street vendors were serving the lumbering pedestrians pop corn, corn plasters and corn liquor to keep up their spirits. The pop corn man went bankrupt.
People who parade are like a flock of sheep. The only man who knows where they are going is at the head of the parade, and not particularly whether he gets there or not. Paraders start out to prove that a straight line in uncertain detours is the longest distance between two points.
When the folks at the rear end reach the termination of the parade line, they find they are right back where they started from. If they had only known where they were going they could have stayed there in the first place and saved a lot of shoe leather.
Folks whose squad is placed in the middle of the procession are in tough situations and want to keep going and they can't turn back, but the guy at the end gets the worst break. All of the spectators generate loud noise on the band way front and nobody is on the sidewalk when he comes along.
Parades are always led by mounted police and some people are so used to going along with the cops that it comes natural. Parades, however, are not always when people began to perspire in the broiling sun and their clothes stick to their bodies, it looks like a skin game.
When the female paraders started they were dressed in white dresses with purple trimming. When they reached the end they were dressed in black and this shows what can be accomplished in a short time by sultry weather.
It is all right for a man to walk upright in his community, but when he does it for ten miles behind a brass hand, that is carrying a good reputation too far.
Every time a parade goes down the street all the sheemakers go in the house and laugh up their sleeps. Cobble stones were never known to preserve soles.
The Elks made a good move when they selected Atlantic City for the city, because there is nothing that is so soothing to a pair of sore feet as salt water.
They will have a little trouble, however, because it is rumored that Atlantic City authorities will forbid visiting Elks from dipping their feet in the water because they have no way of changing the water after they leave town.

Another Familiar Tradition Blasted.
Look to your laurels, ye Sons or Ham, another one of your exclusive and traditional diversions has gone the way of the jealous Nordic Miss Virginia Nichols, pretty white St. Louis girl, has taken your "galloping dominoes" and taught them a number of new tricks.
Out in Chicago last week, she showed the initiated sportsman a thing or two in the dice rolling business and had annexed several sizable bank rolls before experienced but astonished racketeers could eat in the police and "how come" "not only that, but this pure white and twenty-one" young woman convinced the Judge that her achievement with the ivories was not at all crooked business, but the result of study; and demonstrated right before his eyes that she could take any old trio of dice and make them stop rolling on any number she desired.
And so, with the U. S. government finding out that white Nordics eat more chicken and more watermelons than the darker brethren, here goes the crown in another so-called exclusively Hamit is pastime—dice rolling.
We say, again, ye sons of Ham, look to your laurels. After a while some outandinish investigator will turn up with figures and facts to show that all red bandanas are not on Mississippi and Arkansas plantations; and, perhaps, that all the gin is not imbbed bye roostabauts, and that there are some "Cat Fish Allers" and "Scarlet Marys" on the other side of the color line.
Philanthrophy; Is It a Help or Drawback?
When the historian of the Negro race one thousand years from now sets down the effects of present-day factors which are shaping the destiny of the group, will he record philanthropy as having been a help or hindrance? We have become so accustomed to voicing the need of the egalitarian and women who pour out millions to save the diseases of human society, that we have become unmindful of the possible evil effects which honeycomb the business of giving. No one will deny the earnestness of the humanitarian impulses which have motivated many men and women in helping weaker groups and races, but it also must be admitted that there are grave evils attending philanthropy, all the good intentions involved.
The chief danger of this method of distributing certain human benefits lies in its weakening of mutual cooperation necessary in biological development. In our group it has substituted a whining, distorted and flabby group leadership for the red team, who guides most races who have become dominant. Another danger lies in throwing a smoke screen around the things they are being soothed with palatatives in the form of gifts. We have almost forgotten, for instance, that the State own the educational advantages, and even our religion is wrapped up in charity doted out by philanthropists and organizations who create the God and of God they want to adore.
It would have probably been a severe experience if the race had been thrown on its own merits, but there is little doubt that, biologically speaking, it would have been best. There would have been born a few children, whose births—certainly less individual opulence—but those who survived would have been a stronger group. At any rate, the quicker we can loose from mankind of the few better the better it will be—for those, at least, who can swim. In a deeper sense, there is no such thing as real strength, and women will to work. For, the taking by one human being of the thousand dollars that another earns and trying to ease his mind is not about the number, it is about all there is to modern charity.
Harlem Holds
The natural sequester to a rent party would be a rent parade—and hence, the Harlem Tenant Association, which opposed high rents, segregation and evictions last week.
One of the most unfair systems of exploitation in American cities today is the rent system. Tenants pay a large fee for the property and landlords there squeeze the very life out of the working classes. So greedy did this gentry become, the city came to that metropolis, that the city found it necessary to curb them by regulatory laws.
Now they are asking the city to unleash them that they are trying to exploit, and exact the last penny possible from working men who are at their mercy.
While house ownership for rent income purposes, a Petitioner is available form of investment, it is also a vital factor in living conditions, and should be regulated and controlled. Railway and street car fares and electricity, gas, and water rates.

SOCIETY AND THE HEAT WAVE
Unlucky is the hostess the heat drops down on. We have been swettling and we have been expected to do society. We have made an effort, but it wasn't so forty. The grand rush began Wednesday evening, the eve of Decoration Day. The Fish Club, composed of popular male members, hosted a party at Bamboo屋 and baked and clammy fat least according to name, paid the weather not that much for ruffles, carried on the a swanky Witaka Club and drowned their warmth in ice. The day was the day in dayday in grand style, at the Dark Tower, and we knew not whether we were damp from the liquids or the heat. Nor did we know that we were going to gown on display, so many crab patties and French sandwiches to be consumed, such potent blossoms to sip. But Evelyn is just the type to even put one over on the weather man. The night ended with the nighthall were high and well chilled.

STUBBS SHOWER … 10 point ft.fc … Our attention is now focused upon Wilmington in general, the home of Mrs. Alice Dunbar-Nelson, in particular, where a scene of gaiety held us—not exactly speechless, rather, exuberantly happy!

The next move of this restless group was to drive over, and take with us the blushing groom-to-be, Allison Davis; Maco Hubbard, and the Baltimoreans. Also, the groom-to-be, Peggy Lolton, Jim Hope, and a few more drap, drew up to the door, and we were to add their bit to the evening's mirth. When "Hildie" and Allison Enail say "I do" forever and anon, they will gift that it will resemble two Christmas gifts that—in mid-summer. And they will have to house on the campus of Hamilton Institute.

We thought "Porgy" would finish its engagement here on the 25th of May, but seems to me that the public have persuaded Mr. Cochran, who is presenting it here, that they really haven't seen enough of it. So here it will stay until the first of June or longer.
I am quite certain Waller Richardson's marriage to are more, but I couldn't write this without mentioning how lovely it was. The wedding took place on Thursday in the Macy's Episcopal Church. This church is one of those charming old parishes we read about in old English novels. It was beautifully decorated with spring flowers. George Dewey Washington was the best man while Lady Cook attended the bride.
Miss Taylor came to London from China on an afternoon of beige dress, made with attractive flowing lines. Her accessories were a small line of tan velvet, green dresses and stockings.
Waller Richardson has become on of the leading players of the musical comedy stage here, and is one of the stars of "Virginia", a successful musical show of
Mr. and Mrs. Richardson spent their honeymoon as the guests of Lady Cook in her charming country studio house. They are making them a special part of her grand house on Regent's Park路. Mabel Bond, one of the Porgytes, celebrated her birthday with a party on Sunday in the Park in the Bedroom of the sell Square Mansions on Southampton Row. It started the afternoon and ended early Monday morning. I can only say it was some party.
To begin with, there was food and more for the guests at home. Or better still, "down home." There was enough liquor for us all to get dizzy.
The guests included: the George Dewey Washington, Marile Remsen, the Danny Smalls, and Rose McGendon, Jimmy Ferguson, Rose Garland, Dorothy Frank, Paul Allen, Charles Taylor, the Leigh Whippers, Pete Clark, Lillian Cowan, Clarissa Blue, Margaret Booth, and What a gang for a party! Now, imagine Carpenter of Hatch and Carpenter, playing the piano, George Dewey Washington singing in his own inimitable manner, singing and Jimmy Ferguson singing. Then you may have an idea of what a grand and glorious party it was.
Countess Cullen is lecturing here in London and the provinces. These lectures will keep him here until the end of June. He is extremely popular in literary, artistic and social circles here.

The lecturer is an honor that few men ever receive.
Another party given by the Turner Laytons! This time for some of the Porgues. Their parties are memorable occasions to
As usual, there was plenty of delicious food. But at this party, it was the kind we get at some Harlem parties. And there was ice cream made by our hostess. Champagne, and again, more of it. Plats, quarts, cases of it. Ice cold and sparkling.
Those fortunate enough to be there were: Edna Thomas, the Bill Georges, Ausa McGlendon, Dorothy West, the Jack Carters, Musa Williams, the Johnstones, Georgie Harvey, the Leigh Whippers, Nell Hunter, the Buddy Proctors, the Leslie Hutchinsons and John Payne.

Stepin Fetchit Says Bible Helped Him Toward Success
Movie Star Is Staunch Believer in Scriptures, New Movie Is Based on His Colorful Life.
While it is an obvious fact that much of the wickedness of Hollywood has either abated or else the reports are kept well tempered, few, expected to see a movie actor who takes the Bible to guide his feet towards success, but such is the ease of Stepin. Fetchit. Fox film star, who made being lazy an art in "Hearts in Dixie," which is scheduled for the Regent screen. Fetchit has just completed a story which he hopes to have made into a movie and the basic theme was taken from the chapter of the scripture which reads: "Seek ye first the kingdom of heaven and all else will be added to you." It is his firm belief that his life is a fulfillment of this passage.
BORN IN FLORIDA.
Stepin was born in Florida and reared and educated in Alabama, where his first stage experience was galanced with a traveling medicine show operated and conducted by the Wetatch. Petitch describes as "Jes' a dogone faker." From this he progressed to a carnival company, thence to a circus, finally into vaudeville and at last to the Fox lot on the Coast where one of his dancers chanted to a bent for comedy soon won him recognition. When he soon returns to the West Coast in August, he is to appear as the stellar figure in an all-talking, singing and dancing picture based on the picturesque story of his
CARES FOR FATHER.
He has saved his money, moved his father from the East to the gilded precincts of southern California and now contemplates early marriage to a young woman, Miss Dorothy Stevenson, who has not as yet gently wooed him. He contemplates with his deep-rooted churchly convictions. He pointed out with some pride that his fingers are not loaded down with diamonds.
Paris. The Danny Smalls are in Scotland, where he is filling engagements. Dorothy Paul, because of some misunderstanding, marries man of Poray, has left the cast. She is joining with the London "Couette" company.

MISS JENNINGS IS STAR OF "TOM TOM"
Spirited Young Singer Add
Personality to Morgan Col
lege Offering.
TRACES NEGRO MUSIC
Shows African Origin.
The singing of Miss India Jennings, accomplished young soprano, the harmonizing of the Morgan College male quartet an the blending of the well trained chorus under the direction of Mrs. Shirley Graham McCanns made the presentation of "Tom Tom" at the Douglass High School, Friday night, one of the most funeul as well as educational dramas of the current season.
Mrs. McCanns, the composer, endeavored and succeeded splendidly, in tracing the development of Negro music from the heart of Egypt across the sunbaked deserts where the slaves were brought captive to America. On the old plantation, in the cabin initially at the birth of freedom the spirit of the "Tom Tom" could be heard tempering the development of the songs of darker race in America.
In the third scene, the group singing was greatly enhanced by the solo renditions of Miss India Jennings who displayed no little personality in her performance. She quitted themselves in excellent individual performances were F. Carlton Moss, in his portrayal of an old slave, Samuel Turpin, Brewington Klaib, and the Misses Georgianna McMechan and Hazel Mitchell, who rendered two songs. Others in the cast included Messrs Joseph Bostic, Anthony Chase, Craford Trader, Miss Frances Male and a large ensemble of male and female singers. The piece was directed by S. Amanda B. Conjunction with Mrs. S. Radhikam Singh and Sonic Band rendered several selections during the intermissions.
House May Reduce Representation From South
HOUSE PASSES REP. TINKHAM AMENDMENT
Wild Scenes Follow Vote on Measure which Hits Disfranchisement in South.
ENFORCE AMENDMENTS
Victory Follows the Seven Year Fight of Mass. Solon.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—(CNS)—The House of Representatives on Tuesday passed by a vote of 145 to 118. an amendment to the reportionment act, to exclude from the count all persons above the age of 21 who are denied the right to vote.
This action, in addition to the passage of the Census bill., which automatically reapports the House if address should fail to act upon the new Census figures, completely eroded Washington.
SEVEN-YEAR FIGHT.
This amendment, offered by Representative Tinkham, Republic of Massachusetts, is the same that has introduced in the House the seven Congresses, the 64th in 1916, and upon which Congress has failed amendment of vote.
The opportunity for its favorable consideration itself after amendment to Democrats had succeeded in passing a measure by a 157 to 148 which excludes aliens from the United States will be reapportionment to Tinkham, measure put through the Southerners were moving over their victory, and which states directly affect most Southern states more than the effect on aliens, thereby nullifying the victory of the Democrats.
EEFECT EQUALIZED.
It is estimated that the gain and loss of seats will remain the same under the two proposed amendments, the South lossing and the North Northern States will lose as a result of the aliens being ruled out of the count.
Stepin Fetchit in Fox Follies
Stepin Fetchit in Fox Follies
The much heralded Fox Moviemont folio of 1929 opened at Roxy's last week. It was a wow and no end of its success is due to the infinitible acting and voice of Stepin Fetchit, the lead porter. He works through the i are proffessors, the j are comedy, does his low dawn shuffle and puts over the fashionable bit "Who do-you-think the man-behind-me-with-t h e sh-porter? A large and picturesque group of porters of color, including Carolyn Snowden, make up a background for mordent. Fetchit, who since 'Hearts of the man' has been a favorite and an honest-to-goodness box office attraction.
Without question he has made stupidity and laziness an artistic and your soul is so saddled and rested with his peculiar draw and slow motion.

Mrs. Roberta West in Newport Concert
Mrs. Roberta West in Newport Concert
NEWPORT, R. I.-Mme. Roberta Hawkins West, concert solist, appeared to wonderful advantage in a dramatic reticacy at the Young Men's Christian Association hall here Tuesday. West, who is a native of Baltimore, the daughter of W. Ashie Hawkins, prominent attorney, was presented in a farewell recital prior to the concert. She was accompanied in the joint effort by Mrs. Lousa Green, elocutionist, in an "Hour of Song and Dramatic Recital." She was also a very excellent variety. Among the selections were "O Grief-Worn Eyes," by Masnet; "Remember," by Ireland; and the sweet haunting Negro melody, "pile of the fact that it was" arranged by the modern writer, Fisher, was one of the best things of the evening. No doubt much creature was MacCarty who played the accompaniment admirably.
Mrs. Greene presented recitations with musical accompaniments. The first was "An Old Sweetheart of the Queen," tenor saxophonist, sang the refrain in a pleasing way. There were two encos, the first depicting the thrilling experiences of the "Class in Reducing," where "nothing was left to the imagination"; the second being an argument, the boys as an intelligent "smart" daddies. Madame Hawkins sang some German songs by Schubert, the accompaniment of "The Trout" being especially well played by the soprano. An encore brought another striking Nero melody, "My Lord, what a Morning." Other Negro melodies were "Were You There?" and "There's a little wheel a turning in my heart." a good song. Engelhard sang "The Hawkins sax" "Time You Old Gypsy," by Besly, and "The Bitterness of Love," by Dunn.
Lafayette Players Leave
LOS ANGELES - TI more weeks and the famous Lafayette Players will be a pleasant memory in the minds of Los Angeles theatre-goers. Their stay in many ways of uncle citizens. In many ways to Negro citizens. Aside from educating both Negroes and whites to the fact that there are really great dramatic artists in the Race, there was instilled in the meticulous sense of taste and craving for better shows rather than a constant diet of slap-stick comedy.
Fetchit at the Roxy
Stepin Fechit, who is called the Bert Williams of the screen, came to the Roxy in an all-white cast, a Fox singing, talking and dancing production "Movietonie Follies" in which he crises as furnishing the only earl moments of amusement. Fechit has made an enviable record for himself, by his splendid work in the play "He is now on and dearest to the East, a picture which his acting is said will stand out more than in anything he has done.

Al Mielot, known better as Al Moore, who does a Spanish dance and a tango with the band, will be in session, Monday night, the opening of "Great Day" at the Garrick theatre.
LOS ANGELES, Calif. (ANP)—Credit for the outstanding musical beauty of "Show Boat," Universal's picturization of Edna Ferber's romance of the Mississippi River, is due to Jules Bledsoe, baritone singer, whose rich voice is heard both in the movetone prologue, featuring stars of Florenz Ziegfeld music in the context of the story, and in a film, itself.
Bledsoe was loaned by Florence Ziegfeld and is heard singing "Old Man River" "Lonesome Road," and other songs. Particularly the latter song in the finale of "Show Boat," considered one of the most poignant endings of any screen production.
Laura La Plante and Joseph Schildkraut co-star in the musical "Sosse," which is responsible for the musical score, which he based on the music and by Jerome Kern and Arthur Hammerstein.

DANCE HALLS
DANCE HALLS

Memorial day was the high water mark and unofficial closing day of most of Baltimore's dance halls. The reason for this was the warm season. The dancing season officially ends June 20, but customs and dancers have decreed that the dancers must of drawing the curtain on public dances, many promoters sponsor dances far into the month of July. Occasionally a promoter is successful but generally they are failures. Then the season is as warm weather is a handicap to the dancer where owners of the halls do not install cooling plants.
We learn that another dancing colony has been added to the five halls, which are to be known as the "Pride of Baltimore Hall" and is located in the new Pride of Baltimore elk's home at 1114 Madison avenue, formerly the Cosmopolitan church. According to reports the new dance hall is second only to the

Baltimore in Cast
Perhaps no better recommendation can be given than the mere fact that one of the leading characters is our own Clarence Muse, an old Baltimore and favorite dramatic art stilt here. That Muse is a master of makeup as well as an actor of sympathy and feeling, will be revealed when he is seen in the role of an old man of the south. Now the character played by Muse is one to be loved. As a father he gave his all for the education of his only son, that the latter might not grow up in ignorance as those about him.
The production is truly named a symphony of the singing south that with banjos strumming, folks a humming, dancing and singing "Hearts in Dixie" will win its way into the heart of the audience here, as it has in other cities it has played.

NEW YORK — The traditional "Black Menace" that stalks every white champion, now looms in the person of William Theodore Davis, Harlem's 24-year-old motorcyclist, who threatens to shatter some of the records now held by "Cannon Ball" Baker, internationally known racer and endurance title holder.
The "Lone Wolf," as Davis is known to his friends, proposes to take off on June 16 for a round-the-world tour: doing all of his land travel on a Model 74 Indian motorcycle. The first leg of the trip will be from this Davis expects to complete the trip within 144 hours, allowing an average of six out of each twenty-four hours for his rest and sleep. The existing record for the Coast run, made by "Cannon Ball" Baker some years ago, is 132 hours.
Airport Quadruples Values of 112 Bengies Park Lots
88-Acre Race Subdivision, Organized by Manager of late Joe Gaus, Boxer, Has Clause Which Forbids Sale to White Race.
"That the premises shall never be leased, sold, demised or conveyed to, or owned by any person or persons other than a Negro or of Negro descent, nor be occupied or leased out by person or persons other than a N or of Negro descent.
Owners of 112 lots in Bengues Park, in Baltimore County near the city line, woke up this week to find themselves owners of property within the white race cannot buy due to the above co-eanant in their deeds which runs with the land.
Their attention was called to the matter when the Gonnesson Realty Company, a Jewish concern, sought to purchase the unsold lots from the Bengues Park Development Company, and use them for a white residential section.
Location of the Berliner-Joyce airport, a quarter of a mile from the Bengues Park has caused land values to skyrocket. Lots which sold for $300 originally are now worth $1,200.
So far as can be learned, 12 lots have been bought outright and on 100 others part payments have been made.
Unwillingness of several owners to sell their lots for a white development led them to consult J. Howard Payne, local attorney, who discovered the man in the deeds which bites whites.
Allegedly there are four such covens in each deed running with a land. One of them bars the use of the lots for whiskey selling, distilling or packing houses.

Lincoln (Al) Herford, manager of the late "Joe" Gans, celebrated Baltimore boxer. The title now rests in Mrs. Herford. (Al) himself has been in poor health for some time. The covenant in the deed was probably inserted at Al's direction, and is the first of record where colored Marylanders have united to keep a subdivision for themselves and shut out other races.

STAGE REVIEW
"Hittin' the Numbers"
In the parlance of the "numbers" players the above named show, playing the Royal theatre this week, six paying the cash customers any bolta, if you know what we mean. Maybe it was because the vehicle marked the passing out of stage shows at the Peninsula theatre house that the buyers went into hysteria from an overdose of Mariy. It it was a fitting thing the offering should partake of the spirit of the occasion as the death knell was being toiled and the obsequies said over a morbid body. But whatever the cessation was sad one. Except for the being of Mae Wilson, who got in a couple of numbers, the hoofing of two young men whose names we did not catch, and an occasional outburst of blackface humor from the throat of Dinah Scott, there is little cite to comment on, sometimes sometimes sometimes sometimes six sometimes five, paced lackadactically through its rehearsal of some dying

Dallas. Texas, claims Jesse Hubbard for its own, but the big Texan is the property of the Black Sox now, where he takes care of the right garden and the territory in which "Crush" Holloway used to roam.
Hubbard, who left his Texas home in 1918, cared to New York City and played sporadically, number of years with the old Brooklyn Royal Giants, until he went to the Bacharachs in 1927. Jesse started out as pitcher, but in 1925 his arm went on him. While on the coast in the center of that same year he underwent chiropractic treatment, which restored some of his old speed. He joined the mid-season team as relief pitcher and Holloway went to Hildale was to the outfield where he has been making good.

W. DOUGLAS JOHNSON, Principal
All efforts in every department in School No. 22 are bent toward making students habit to working diligently to have all projects finished in order that other boys and girls might enlist. The teachers and pupils are looking forward to Monday, June 11th, when Capitol will be their host on his new book, the *Avalon*.
The children took advantage of the opportunity on last Wednesday afternoon in seeing the Flying Dutchman at the Douglass High School.
W. DOUGLASS JOHNSON, Principal
No prouder boys could be found than the following: Charles Butler, Russell Hill, Stuart Cruse, James Wilson, James Thompson, Robert Brown, Arthur Brown and Reginald Matthews. It was because of their achievement in basketball. This glorious team of ours won the city championship by outclassing all other teams. On last Wednesday, Mr. Johnson, our principal, presented these boys their well-earned medals. He put before them very plainly the true meaning of these medals. I'm sure that after listening to his short talk, not one of the boys will ever fall short of a real junior citizen. Elmer Jarvis won the 50-yard dash in the finals at Carroll Park. Our school is very proud of him also.
Every department of the platoon and non-platoon will be represented in the exhibit which is in full swing this week at Douglass High School. We hope that each boy and girl will go to see his work displayed. We also trust that every parent and guardian will take advantage of this opportunity to see the accomplishments of all schools.
Our school excursion is scheduled to be Monday, June 10th. Save up for this big event and enjoy the day with Captain Brown as our host. We surely appreciate this privilege granted by him to our boys and girls.

Stays On 12 Hours---Banishes All Gloss
And Shine.....Conceals All Blemishes
N= before have you seen a skin-whitener
like this. It is not a bleach, not a liquid
powder, but an entirely new and different French
type Creme. This wonderful creme gives a mar-
velous whiteness and brilliancy to dark skins—
banishes gloss and shine for 12 hours—makes face
powder unnecessary—conceals freckles and skin
blemishes—heals and soothes skin irritations. It
has the magic power of instantly lightening the
skin it touches,
As yo: will see by the illustrations above, this
amazing new creme—Fan Tan Make-Up Creme—
comes in three shades, each adapted to a particular
complexion. The shade called “Sun Tan” is for
very dark complexions and lightens them to a
fashionable Sun-Brown. The next shade, called
“Ochre,” is for medium complexions. , It gives
them that flattering Spanis.. tone, so desirable this
season. And the lightest shade called, “Naturelle”
is for the girl or man who wishes a creamy ivory
skin.
Men find Fan Tan wonderful after shaving.
They say it removes gloss and shine and gives that
refined light tone so yaluable in business and
social life, Also makes hands surprisingly light
and smooth.

Proud of Color
St. Georges was several times trumped about his color and his
Graceful Sportsman
Dazzling Personality
In the most splendid court of Europe he was the most dazzling and entertaining figure; as violinist, pianist, musical composer, actor, and artist; he held high rank; as his man he so far eclipsed the best of his time that none would face it as a markman, no one could aid a trumpet with such unerring skill; he performed prodigies on the battle; as a dancer, or as a master, he was the most graceful and supreme for its grace and grace; in the matter of dress he was the most fashionable; in England and France; in France, a future king of England, and royal princes sought his company, and to crown all, he possessed a spirit of rarest generosity, fitness and residence. Yet he felt this sounds like the wildest grace. Lucky indeed, it is for us we can refer to Larousse Uni-territorial Dictionary. His foremost epistola, which devotes two columns to him, and speaks of him in
Born of Royalty
The Chevalier de St. Georges was born in Guadeloupe, West Indies, on Christmas Day, 1745. His mother was a Frenchman, West Indies, named Naomi. His father Jean de Bouloune, Marquis de Larry, and later king's counsellor, and Chancellor of France, and Treasurer of the Order of the Spirit.
He was a child. St. Georges showed his superiority, physical and intellectual accomplishments, and his delicited father, one of the most健男 men in France, took him to Paris, and placed him under the masters there. His mornings were intertwined to the study of music, litterature, science, dancing and like accolades. He was in fencing, marksmanship, riding, and other physical exercises at all which he proved such an excelled pupil that he easily excelled all quote Larousse: "At fifteen the most amateurs could not stand, and at seventeen he beat best among Paris. He was the less remarkable for other musical exercises."
Had No Equals
Having no rival at any play, having always the hand of a master he became the star of drawing-rooms, fezes and spectacles. He play the violin, improvised verses, and conversation was of the wittiest and a clean to save the ladies from embarrassment. He played of never being too much of the company, always leaving at the point of an affair.
twenty he was appointed esquire to the Duch ss of Orleans, wife of the father of Louis XVI, and because he the master of the Duke, amuse and his son, the Queen. Then he entered into the brilliant life of the Court of Versailles, whose his physical charm, his accommodation, and his exquisite taste in fashion, him the most striking figure in the splendid throng. King Louis, with whom he dined, as a special privilege, raised him to the
Was Prolific Composer
and in this time he wrote plays and musical compositions, some of which became the most famous of his works, *Georges*. "says Larousse, was a writer on the violin, and a story is told of him so remarkable that it is border on the improbable; he lived one evening with the improbable; his whi*h* was fact certified by seventeen present. This whi*h*, became famous, the handle is ornamented with a great number of precious stones, and the nobleman declared
that each stone in the dazzling collection represented a woman who he also brought a band of black musicians from the West Indies, which he trained himself and which he drew from the delights of the gay French Court.
Graceful Sportsman
In winter one of the most thrilling sights at Versailles was to see St. Georges skate on the great artificial lake. Tail, endowed with Herculean force, but with a body the most admirable in form, he would skim over the ice with the grace of a swallow, describe flowers, portraits, velous rhomboids, flowers, portraits, sometimes whole lines from Racines.
"As soon as St. Georges appeared in any circle," says Jean de Beauvoir "a murmur to which all had long been accustomed to reply, and whom I recognized him; and the expression of an unforgettable joy on his handsome, brown face. The women, on seeing him, had the appearance of hiding behind the fans, as if to convey a secret to another, while the men, the most distinguished in nobility, mentality and intelligence came forward to an instant he had become the lion of the assembly. He was such a master in everything and his conduct was so perfect, withal that his enemies in despair had to approach him on his birth, and the race from which he came.
Dined By Prince of Wales
*Visiting London with the Duke of Chartres, St. Georges won a success equal to that ... Paris. The Prince of Wales, afterwards George I welcomed him as a special guest. In the most elegant setting, he says Laouise, to the honor for the award, to the ceremony him; the people called him, the most seductive of colored gentlemen. The Prince of Wales, himself, enthusiastic of the accomplishment's of his guest, wished to decorate him with the Order of the Bath, but St. Georges had the modest arrival in England. St. Georges adopted the English hat and shoes and discarded the French broidered jacket and culotte. for the English pantaloon and frock-coat. On these garments and an individual style of his clothing, which it once became the modelling mod; "Lords and ladies" says Universal Biography, "copied his dress." St. Georges was the forerunner of the English Beau Brummel. On his return he brought back the English man, which took the place on the French one.
"He returned to France." says Laurose. "three months later no richer than he left, but he was the only one to be brought back with him, after having spent fabulous sums at play and at fetes that was of a bet of 20 gunnes that he wore in the dress. "He ould jump with knees closed a wide ditch in Richmond."
Unowring Marksman
Engraved fourth: for the honor of doing his portrait, and dozens of engravings were made of him, several of them in the company of the Prince of Wales. One of them showed him, doing a favorite of his, shooting on minks with both hands at his walows and bringing his birds down. another showed him in a comic duel with the chef of the Prince Conti. st. Georges, who was an epicure, had found fault with the cipheres, and the latter, with seized a sword, attacked him; on which the famous swordman picked a scourne, or iron strainer, and disarmed his opponent.
Defeated All Comers
"This master of arms, whom they surnamed the inimitable and the invincible," says Larousse "never had a duel." He was a man of great intellect. Indeed his historic duel with the Count de la Morlire was only comedy. The Count, offended by a remark of the Germans, had challenged him and St. Georges gave him a meeting
under St. Marie Bridge. But the Count proved so poor an opponent that St. Georges seized him, three him across his knees, and spanked him like a child to the great amusement of the clinkers.
Proud of Color
St. Georges was several times trunted about his color and his race of which he was very proud. Once, when walking in the Rue du Bac, a man wishing to show off his cleverness called him a "mauricaud, an offensive term for the word gro. St. Georges and rubbed face in the gutter, "There are now! As black as myself," be laughed.
4. Serious Affair
A still more serious affair happened in 1776. At that time the Royal Academy of Music was under the direction of the city of St. Georges, and St. Georges, the time, made a national company, wishing to make a national affair of it, got together a company of capitalists to finance the theatre. But, inspired by his enemies, severed by the openers by Miles. Arsène d'Armand and Levasseur, assent a petition to the queen, Marie Antoinette, indignably declaring that "their honor and their privileges were opposed to their obligation to the emperor."
The Queen, who, up to that time, had been one of the firmest friends and warmest admirers of St. Georges, spoke against the project and it fail-
Champions Revolution
It is asserted by many writers that it was this incident that caused St. Georges to side with the great war. It is also said that he was his republican ideas from the Duke of Orleans, "Philip Equality." But both assertions are wrong. St. Georges' correspondence shows the fact is that although aristocrat, St. Georges' kindness and sympathy made him a democrat at
Besides he was a man of color. He had been born among his people, when the French invaded the city of Neroy Negro in France and the West Indies, sided with the people.
In the meantime he did all that in his power to warn Louis XVI. of the coming attack, while skating on the ice, he, one day, called the word, "Peril" in German on the ice for the queen's especial warning. Later, in a touching scene she expressed to him her regret for having yielded to the wiles of discrimination. She also influenced by association with the Orleans. The Duke, who later voted for the death of his brother, the king, was like him and Marie Antoinette, guillotined during the days of the terror. At the opening of the Revolutionary Army, soul and energies threw himself, heart, soul and pursue, into the cause of the people, and raised a regiment of black cavalry in the West Indies. It was known as "The American Legion," the first of its kind and name.
Friend of Dumas
At that time there was another young Negro nobleman, who was the talk of Paris, and St. Georges appointed him second in command. This was the Count de la Pailleterie, who later renounce his title and became plain Alexander Dumas. Dumas, as was said, in an earlier article, giant in size and strength, and next to St. Georges the most formidable man in France. Dumas later rose from sergeant to the third army in twenty-two months, and was one of Napoleon's greatest generals.
Leads "Crack" Legion
Leads
St. Clare and Dumas, with their black legion almost at once, "stingushed themselves by saving Lille for the republicans, when Gen. Dumouries, a former royalist leader, betrayed the republicans. St. Georges, in several engagements, distinguished himself in the same brilliant manner he had done in the salons. "He performed prodigies of valor." St. Georges, enthusiasm did not save him, however, when the revolutionist split and began a whole-

Much depends upon the Negro pioneers in this field of art. Interviewing some of them, we are convinced that the race will be well represented. Their voices blend perfectly in the old spirituals and folk songs of the Negro. Their voices, soft and intonating are suited perfectly for screen-sound reproduction.
King Vidor, director of "Hallelujah," and the first director to accord the Negro an opportunity for dramatic expression, said: "I am trying to do for Negro talent what we did for the doughboy in the 'Big Parade.'" And, judging from press comments, Mr. Vidor has produced a sunny cinema.

Rhythmically bowing and dipping, swaying and turning with a troupe of seasoned chorus girls, she was unconscious of the critical eyes of the great director, King Vidor. She did not know that the pendulum had swung from mediocrity to stardom when he viewed her with unusual interest. To her the crowd was simply composed of tired people who were looking to Harlem Blackbirds for a different kind of amusement. To her the crowd was her present means of livelihood, and she was there to do her best.
Native of South Carolina
"Are you a native New Yorker?" I asked Miss McKenney.
Then, as I told you before, I would go home and imitate her until I had as much of the dance as I could remember perfectly. It was the same with any other type of acting. Before my mirror I affected sorrow.
"No, I was born in South Carolina on the estate where our family had lived several generations. My grandmother was an old and trusted servant of this household until I was about twelve years old. Then my father, who was in New York, sent for me: 'Imagine my delight at this metropolitan city. I was constantly thrilled by the wonders unfolded in the theatres, anything, everything was a veritable fairyland, and I beheld its glories in wide-eyed amazement. 'The theatre especially interested me. I never tired of going to picture shows. In invariably she role of the great star. Many times I went home and shout impressive picture in my room.

Befriended the Poor
After this experience St. Georges retired from public life and died in June 12, 1799, novelist, Dumas, he had spent or given away all of the great fortune he had earned or inherited. Like Dumas, also, he had a list of poor persons whom he gave pensions from the market.
"St. George," says Larousse, "distinguished himself among the personages of his time and was not a host part, by an acrosity and a restitude of character very rare. To the end of his life he did good and he had a special list of poor people, whom he supported entirely. He was unselfish and benevolent," says Universal Biography. "He suffered privations to relieve the unhappy and several indigent old people his pensilaries as long as his life was."

Principal Composition:
Among his principal works are the "St. Georges du dimetre," two operas, "Lacques and Lalisons Dangereux" and a comedy, "Fille Garçon." His most noted work was his "Cortesos," which became the rage of the day. His fame rests however, on his physical prowess and his personal qualities.
In his respect, no King Arthur or Lancelot, or any traditional figure of chivalry was more gallant than he. He lived, at all times, up to the highest and best in human nature, and will remain a model for mankind as long as noble qualities and excellence was preserved. The Chevalier de St. Georges was the Prince Charmiling stepping into real life.
J. W. C. Pennington, born a slave in Maryland, was a great theologian, serving as pastor of a church in Hartford, Conn. In recognition of his scholarship the University of Heidelberg conferred upon him the degrees of Doctor of Divinity.

"Put Thru the Mill"
"But after joining the Blackbirds, Lew Leslie put me thru the mill," as the old saying goes. The routine was I was before great crowds and, although I was only one of the group, I was there nevertheless.
Inspired by Florence Mills and Josephine Baker
"The phenomenal success of Florence Mills and Josephine Baker stimulated me. I longed to hold a place in the heart's of the world, as they did."
"Then into the midst of my chorus life came a summons from King Vidor, calling me to Memphis, where he was then in the process of making 'Hallelujah.' I was thrilled. Mother and I packed and were soon on our way to the Memphis made famous by W. C. Handy. There I began the fascinating work of acting for the movies."

"Do you like the screen better than stage work?"
"Yes," she replied. After a little thought, "the think screen offers a greater chance for originality on the stage than for something new and original. Everything is experimental." In the drama, "Hallelujaah," Nina May is the seductive little cabaret dancer, "Chick." Her acting as the vampire, then as the innerminer, bares her face by Zoke, a young evangelist, shows her versatility.

I am to be married this month. I like: my sweetheart fine but I do not love her madly as heroes love their sweethearts in novels.

While to obtain perfection, whether, when, or whenever you empower orary, you should self-control and quiet and steady persistence. A passionate person is good dramatic material but people in life seldom attain happiness themselves to others. If you are an experienced intelligent there is hope, of course, that he or she will eventually be sandpapered down by experience into something acceptable.

Housewives
The average housewife who has during the past few years learned for the first time how important a part food plays in our lives, is due for many surprises as she studies foods and their results. Really, they may almost be termed "shocks" rather than surprises. Down through the ages have come some of the most ridiculous sayings imaginable, regarding certain foods. We have been told that tomatoes produced cancer; that certain fruits were acid; that an orange was heavy at night and even that an ounce of candy will produce a pound of fat.
All ridiculous—every single one! Tomatoes are exceptionally healthful; prunes and large plums are the only common fruits that do not have a decided reaction to candy, really a cure or preventive of acidity.
a HARLEM GENIE
a Thrilling 2 part story
by AUBREY
BOWSER
FTER reading the comic magazines a man expects, when he enters a business office, to find the stenographers busy chewing gum, fixing their hair, rouging their lips, or examining runs in their hosiery. But there is one thing that no visitor to an office expects, and that is, to find the stenographer sleeping. Yet that is just what he would have seen if one summer day about two o'clock in the afternoon he had chanced to drop in at the office of Maximus Sylvan on Seventh avenue, the promenade of Harlem.
There a girl in a swivel chair was bent forward on a desk, with her head on her folded arms. She was fast asleep. Outside the open door buses lumbered by and cars tooted their horns, but still the lady slent.
It goes without saying that her employer was absent, as, indeed, he was most of the time. Judging from the railroad maps and the highly colored lithographs of ocean liners on the wall, an innocent person would think that Maximus Sylvan was a transportation executive or agent. One should not be too hard on him for this display, for, after all, a wall ought to have something on it. The other furnishings of the office were an enormous rolltop mahogany desk which had closed down over its secrets, a hat rack, a shelf of thick law books, and six or eight small chairs ranged along the walls. The sign on the window read:
MAXIMUS SYLVAN
Stocks, Bonds, Real Estate, Employment
Agency, Notary Public
To the list of furnishings
must be added the desk and
chair that held the sleeping
beauty.
That she was a beauty was
evident, even without a sight
of her face. There was a
something in the curve of her
back, in the reddish, almost
transparent brown of her
neck, in the tumbled mass of
bobbed hair that sparkled
like coals in the sunlight—a
something which meant that
the face that accompanied
them just had to be beautiful.
At half-past two a taxicab on the avenue sideswiped an automobile, and the breaking glass splintered the lady's dreams. She didn't know what woke her up. She raised her head, sat up, yawned and stretched her arms. Then alas! She scratched her neck.
But even that did not detract from her beauty. The ruddy, autumn-leaf brown of her neck extended to her face. They speak of the skin you would love to touch, but hers was a skin you would fear to touch lest your fingers should pierce it. She had an uptilted nose that might be cute or combative, according to the occasion, a sloping forehead with the unruly black curls tumbling over it, and a mouth—what poet can do justice to these colored girls' mouths? Just let us say that
no man would miss a chance to kiss it.
The lady's eyes were dulled with sleep, but about one minute after she awoke they suddenly brightened with a look of consternation. Her hands dived to the edge of her dress—but no, that was all right. Somewhat but not entirely reassured, she sat up straight.
She had discovered a man in the office.
He must have seen her stretching and scratching after her nap, and what young woman wishes to be seen at such a disadvantage? She was about to speak to him and ask his business, when she stopped short in amazement.
The young man, too, was asleep!
"Well, can you beat that!" she marveled, with feminine inconsistency. "Come to an office on business and goes to sleep. The nerve of it! I'll wake him up."
With a mischievous smile she picked up an inkwell and banged it down on her desk. The young man did not jump. He stirred lazily, blinked, and slowly came to life. What did my napp? he drawled, "I did not interrupt yours." She flushed.
"Well, she replied, "I assume that you came here on business."
"Did you?"
"So I thought you would rather transact it while awake."
"I generally do," was his unbashed and good-humored reply, "though in thinking back over some of my mistakes I realize I must have had a good friend. I made that. But I sauntered in here a while ago, and finding you asleep I decided to wait till you woke up. Besides, you looked so. I know, I she interrupted, for she had had her fill of fattery, "I looked so beautiful you hated to spoil the picture." Beautiful? No. You looked like a dog-tired kid that had been bored and so tired. At the unexpected reply she looked at him more closely. He was about twenty-eight, she thought, five years older than she. He was of middle height, with a compact face and a dark face was dark brown and humorous, almost ugly, with blunt features and short hair. His eyes were intelligent and she fancies she detected a smile. But thought she did all this without his noticing it, but she was mistaken.
"Well," he drawled, "now you've looked me over. I think you missed my feet, though. They're very large—number elevers."
Eugenia Ward—that was her name—did not wish the young man to think she could be interested in him on such short acquaintance. She put her business front.
"May I ask what is your business?"
"Business! I haven't any. Once I had a business and a wife, too, but now I am em divorced me." "Dovecled!" she cried in spite of her.
"Sure," he answered merrily. "My former partner's married to both of me now, her and the business. They put up brown while they were about it. Eugenia was aching to hear more, but she was chary of showing it. She became the woman of business. "Too bad. But I wasn't asking about your former business. I only wished to know what your business at this office." "see Maximus Sylvan. Are you she?"
"Of course not. Maximus is a man's name, you know."
"Yes, but the women are taking everything else of ours now, so they might take our names. Besides, who on earth can tell what's behind a name like Maximus Sylian? Is it real?"
"Of course it is."
"Somehow," he muttered, "I can't imagine anybody being born with a name like that. Where did he get it—or did it get him?" Eugenia felt like laughing, but she must be to loyal to her employer. He wanted to be an employer, it is true: he son sometimes an employer, memory on pax day, but she sleeps.
was with him she wished to be loyal.
"But you haven't told me your business here, Mr. —"
"Mr. Bertrand evaueux. No, you haven't told me such a fine name picked me out. Well, they tagged me with it, and it sticks."
"But your business, Mr. Bertrand Devaueux."
"But you're playing for a tsh."
"A job? Why I don't think Mr. Sylian needs anyone, but I'll ask him,
"don't want a job here, lady, I want him to get me a job. isn't this an employment agency? The sign on the window says so." Eugenia was nervous, her employer that mentioned the employment business.
"Yes, yes, of course," she answered hastily.
"I say, young lady," he queried, "just which one of those signs on the window is real?" Mr. Sylwan's interests are numerous and varied. Only, we haven't done much in the employment line lately—things are very dull. It is always so in a Presidential year. He's right, young lady," he said admiringly, "I'd tell a lie for my boss, too, if I had one. If I hadn't given up the marrying business for good I think I'd look you up against me. I think I'm king's boss and men couldn't make me commit matrimony again.
"Oh, some woman will get you."
"Not a chance. I only need to tell 'em I'm broke, and that'll scare an woman away."
"Be yourself may have money."
"Ah, that's different. By the way, have you any money?"
"Yes," she laughed. "I have all of thirty-five cents." "Well, that lets you out. If you had some money I confess I might have seen of you today. But no money! Not a chance. Good bye. I'm off to the next employment office—I hope it'll be a real one." Good bye, she said tardily. He left the office, she bit her lip in vexation, then she got up and went to the door. The young man was sauntering down the avenue as if he had all the time in the world. "Such neat telling," she said. "I kind of tired kit spanked to bed, and then saying he'd marry me if I had money. I suppose I'm not good enough for him without money." Though young ladies affect to deceive me, they never fail to resent its opposite. What stung Eugenia most was that she had met a man who didn't think she was so much, after all. Used to fattery and plenty of it, she was not afraid of warms. This man had made such dent in her vanity that she felt she should hate him as long as she lived.
"I if ever meet Bertand Deveaux
have some hot shots ready for him."
She went back to her desk. There was nothing to do. Maxim Sylvan, in spite of the signs on his window, could not be said to have seen the signs on his real estate clients had taken their business out of his hands when they discovered that he was supplying their apartment houses with low grade coal and sending in bills for the repairs. He signed pertaining to stocks and bonds, that was a joke: Sylvan had never seen a bond in his life.

"Good. Keep an eye out for him." One reason why Maximus Sylvan spent so little time in his office was that he was dodging a court summons. Once or twice he had escaped the court. He opened his desk and drew out a roll of gaudy stock certificates. He was trying to sell these to colored people to establish a colony for those who wished to raise their families in the city. Maximus Sylvan was a heavy, clay-colored man of forty-five, with an imposing presence and a loud voice. He was spatlessly groomed, his large cheeks and broad forehead glistened. Maximus Sylvan was large. The only flaw in his face was his eyes, which were rather shifty, except when he was telling lies to stockholders. Then they were large and trustful, like a child's been in Harlem about two years and nobody knew where he had come from.

"Oh, that's all right. Mr. Sylvan,

Just now he was trying to float a reality corporation to buy a tract of land in New Jersey and sell lots to colored people. At times Eugenia had an uneasy intuition that she was not sure if she financed the stockholders' money and Maximus Sylvan would vanish together. She stayed in his office only because things were dull and it was hard to get any kind of job. As she sat musing at her desk Ms. Ward said, "Was there anyone to see me, Miss Ward?" he asked, seating himself at his desk.
"Yes, Mr. Gylvan, a young man was here looking for a job."
"Hc, ho!" he laughed. "Who told him I wanted more help?" "He said he thought this was an employment agency, on account of the sign on the door," he told him? "I told him things were very slow in the employment market and that just now we had nothing."
"Good. You're a bright girl, Miss Ward. Did anyone else call?" "No, sir." "That process server hasn't been sneaking around?"
"I didn't see him today, sir."
He scanned the certificates, which were backed by a charter permitting his company to engage in any business from selling peanuts to building bridges. Then he took up a long list of names and was lost in thought. About three days later Bertrand Deveaux came into the office, waved to Eugenia and walked rapidly up to Maximus Sylvan's desk.
Sylvan gave a sudden start as the young man paused beside him. He looked at me in a demeanor. "Why do you call me Mr. vanw?" errowed Maxus, suspicious.

"Oh, I see," said Maximus, reassured.
"And you haven't found a job yet?"
"Yes," said Davaux.
Quick as a flash he jerked a folded paper from his pocket. Syvain dawn back his hands, but it was useless, the paper dropped in his lap.
"Ow!" yelled Sylvan. "What
thee—"
"Just a little summons, Mr. Sylvan," chirped Deveaux. "You're served at last." Deveaux turned to Eugenia. To his amazement she turned into a fury. She rushed him on his palm, with blazing teeth and fists. I don't know what to call you! You low, treacherous sneak! If I were a man Id——" "Hey, what's the matter?" cried Berfrand. "So that was your real mission, eh? Pretending you were after a son me off my guard, and then—then
"Wait a minute; young lady. I served your boss with papers, not you.
She whirled round to Sylvan. "Oh, why don't you throw him out of the office?"
"It's too late now." laughed Deveaux. "The papers are served. But in your way I will move along. Good day."
He walked off. At the door he turned.
"By the way, young lady, you look great when you're mad. If you only had some money I'd——"
Losing her temper completely she made a rush for him. He skipped away, laughing.
"Ugh!" she stormed. "What a lowdown, trick!"
"X-yes," stammered Sylvan, whose face was pasty. "Those fellows will do anything to make their point."
Despondently he opposed the summon. He was commanded, under penalty of this and that, to appear at court on the tenth day of September, to show cause why he had not pleaded. Mrs. Georgia Rowan the notary of the district dollar, due April first, etc. etc.
"Well," he reflected, "that gives me three weeks."
He expected, three weeks, to have a reception more than nine hundred dollars of stockholders' money. He had hoped to get away with the nine hundred he owed the trusting company, gone away for the summer. When she came back he had figured, he would be gone with her money and some thousands of trusting stockholders dollars too. But now he would be there her in order to bag the bigger bag.
The next night Eugenia went to the library to attend a reception given by the company, in town. As she entered a man was making a speech. Spelling two or

Dreams fall into two classes—pho-
phytic and non-pho-
phytic.
phytic and non-prophetic.
A prophetic dream is reflected on a prophetic dream that is, it is projected into the creative brain either by the independent will which is temporarily detached from the physical body is in the repose of sleep.
A non-prophetic dream is caused by some disturbance in the physical body at one of the numerous centers supplying the visual organs of the body. A dream of this class is commonly called a nightmare.
The value of a dream lies in its logical interpretation. No two dreams have the same significance, no matter if dreamed by the same person, and each dream must therefore be considered separate. We do not know when and often does form a link in the interpretation of other dreams.
Dreams have generally been classed with fancies to be laughed at or with evil omens to be shunned, although by referring to the Bible, we find that the all based prophets as interpreted by the prophets of those days.
The world has missed a great deal since the laws of various countries have abolished the prophets. But we are again coming into the dream or vision age, and humanity, through its visions, will yet become truly
Dreams, properly speaking, are induced by the will of the dreamer while the body sleeps. This is accomplished by the way the dreamer dwells itself from the body of the physical body and taking what is called an astral flight. The "will" goes foraging, as it were; or makes a general survey of future events of importance to the dreamer, filling the memory with pictures of the world disturbed by the body distorts or dissembles these pictures in the same way that objects become blurred on the film of a camera. Iusions are not to be classed as dream. Visions are pictures projected directly into the creative brain by an outside will which may be either the will of a person termed a spirit or the will of one living in the dream. Visions come from the former, it is classed as a psychic revelation; if from the latter, it is known as telepathy. In both cases the processes and results are the same. The dream is burned, and the dreamer is imbrore and the physical brain conceives it and carries it to the memory cell of that brain, when the dreamer becomes conscious of it, and
three vacant seats in the rear of the little hall, she made her way to them. In a moment she was applauding the speaker, who concluded his fireworks and sat down. Another speaker was interrupted. Eugenia had felt, rather then seen, that the seat next to hers had been taken by someone who had come in after her, but in her hands she had not noticed its occupant. Now she turned—and recolled.
End of First Installment.
through recognizing it, draws to himself the individual whose will projected the picture. Oftimes the events of the vision are brought about by the combined forces of the dreamer and the projector. Dreams portray events and are like shadows. Visions are actualities and are records in themselves of the events that are prophetic and destined to fulfillment. Individuals whose creative brain corpuscles are psychically organized rarely, if ever, dream or have visions while in the dream state, but perceive the events that are imagined. Such visions are called hunches or premonitions. The governing law and the process of reflection and projection are the same in visions received in the dream state. That portion of the brain that perceives the image must at rest to obtain a clear vision of the symbol. Dreams and visions are not chance things, but vibrations that reach us through the ether by way of the blood or nerve stream. They must be worked out by scientific interpretation through psychometry.
Test your dreams, visions, and nightmares by the following method: A dream is quite difficult to remember; a vision is imprinted on your intellectual brain; while a nightmare is registered on your brain and passes from your memory through the adjustment of the physical body returning to normality with the duties of the day.
Many dreamers interpret their own dreams through the process of elimination, and others through psychic perception, but the majority of dreamers seek explanations who are able to interpret through psychometry, this being accomplished by contacting the personal vibration by means of the recorded dreams.
Public interest in dreams has increased greatly in the last few years, and numerous magazine and newspaper editors are featuring dream events for the benefit of their readers.
Many a murderer has been brought to justice through someone's location and body, a disaster has been prevented by a warning dream dreamed by one who was able to interpret it at the time of dreaming. How often do we say, "If I had only listened to you," and "By being attentive to your prophetic dreams, you will soon learn to interpret them. But never worry about the meaning of a dream. If it has a dangerous turn, you may be able to understand the clue that will enable you to be on your guard. Certain things dreamed may mean one thing to one person and quite the opposite to another. Have changed since the advent of the radio. Powers of the mind heretofore unknown to man have been brought into action. As time passes, greater wonders will be revealed and man will see beyond the darkness of life in the astrail world—now called the dream world.
In conclusion, a word of encouragement to the dreamer of dreams and seer of visions:
Realize the importance of your power to dream or see visions: dream that seer at first thought very insignificant; a vision of the greatest importance to you. Therefore, if you have the power or vision, do not make light of it; out what relation it bears to the affairs of your life or the affair in the lives of those who take it into silent thought you wake ing hour that you may train from being a visionary like to a companion applicable to the important things of life. Be member, when visualizing your moments of sleep, that you hold the time a very precious jewel, when polished by the interpreter of dreams cannot be estimated. In the words of prophets, a vision is the gift of gods, and it cannot be duplicated.

Cubans Play Hilldale Here Sunday
2 TEAMS CLASH IN TWIN BILL AT BLACK SOX PARK
SOX IN NEW YORK
colin Giants, Sunday.
While the Black Sox are fighting it out in New York Sunday, with the Lincoln Giants, local fans will not be denied a tasty baseball dish, as the Cuban Stars and Hildale are booked for a doubleheader at Maryland Park.
Local fans saw the Darby Daisies in action against the Sox last Sunday but have not as yet lamped the 1920 combination of Senator Alejandro Pompex.
Pompex has some great stars with the Iowa team. Jose Ramos, outfielder, formerly was with Richmond, of the Virginia League. He led the league in hitting and is known as the home run king of the circuit.
Correa, a shortstop, is one of the greatest players of Cuba and is a very good hitter. Castro, a new catcher, a brother of the Castro who had a trial with the New York Giants, seems destined to become as famous as Fernandez behind him.
Lamberton in left field has proven to be the greatest find of the season. This youngster weighs 180 pounds and is six feet tall. He is fat and is a strong fighter. He also possesses a strong arm and is a terrific hitter. In the Hildale series he was at bat 7 times, and got four hits. He is the best player in a game there he hit the longest home run ever seen in the park. The Cubans are going in good form. They won at Atlantic City on Saturday, and they dropped the Monday's contest, 9 to 4, the shore nine chasing Gisentauer, while the Cubans knocked Mitchell off the hill, Oscar finishing for the Islanders and McClure for the Bacharach. Hildale has improved greatly since Highpockets Hudspeth joined the club and they are winning the majority of their games. Baltimore is the best team in the league to beat the Darby bunch and when Biz Mackey joins the team and gets in

that batting combination of Charleson, Mackey and Dihigo, some pitchers will have to worry some when these giants carry their bats to the plate on the first half comes to a close with the playing of games on July 4 and the second half begins Sunday, July 6. It has been virtually conceded that the fight for the first baseman has left the Lions and Black Sox and Sunday's games are the real turning point. A sweep for Baltimore will just about clinch the flag, while two Lincoln triumphs will put the New Yorkers in front. An even division of the team will see the situation uncharged.

Remington Wins Track Meet
SCHENECTADY, N. J. In defeating Rebeonia High School here Sunday afternoon by a score 70 to 56, the Remington track and field team of Baltimore finished its fifth dual and triangular season under coach Howard Anson Bruce, former Lafette track mentor, with a perfect record. The Remington has not lost a single outdoor dual meeting since they came to the New York League. One new record was set up in the mess, which consisted of a huddle and then a high jump at a height of 5 feet 10 inches. Banks of Remington was the individual high scorer, winning the broad jump and the 220-yard low jump, recording second place in the high hurdles.

DRUID ROBINS BEAT ACES IN SLUGFEST
The Drud Robins outslugged the Royal Aces A.C. to win a ragged contest at Drud Hill park, Sunday, by the score of 15 to 14. The Robins scored five runs in the seventh inning only to find their lead short-lived as the Aces tailed a half dozen markers in the third stanza. The Robins counted three more runs in the fifth inning and both teams counted four runs each in the seventh inning, but fell just one run short of being able to tie the score. Murchison, who relieved Cooper in the seventh and eighth innings but weakened in the ninth to allow three runs to come across the pan. The fielding of W. Davis and Brown and the hitting of Spratley and Dobbin featured the losers, and Robins did heavy stickwork for the winners.

Morgan College, last year in seventh place, stepped to the front to win the annual Municipal Track and Field Games, at Carroll Park, Saturday afternoon.
Five records from last year meet, were smashed, and one in closer to the latter of record breaking went to Russell Sterling, Morgan College freshman, who broke the record in 440, who broke his also Morgan who broke his own record for the 220-yard dash. Sterling was clocked in the 440 in 53 3-5 seconds, 2-8 seconds faster than the time made, but the 220 in 23 seconds, bettering by 2-5 seconds his own record of last year. Alonzo Cottman, of Morgan College, in winning the step and step, had a distance of 41 feet, 8 inches, fell just one-half inch short of the record set by Leo Woods last year. Morgan's mile relay team ran the distance in 3:46 1-5, the time being 3 4-5 seconds faster than that made by the Decatur A.C. last year. Two other records were smashed when L Banks or Dunbar ran the 7-5 seconds, three-fifths faster than the time made last year by J. Thompson of Douglass High School. B. Lewis of Douglass, ran the fifth-fifth second better than the time Leon Hebron of Sparrows Point made in last year meet.
Because of improper registration several athletes were disqualified, among them being J. Pulley, Douglas High School spinner, who after winning his head injury in a race, was when it was found that he had not been properly registered. The elimination of Pulley from the competition spoiled what might have been a great race between him and Russell Sterling in the current season. He was counted for the slow time in which this race was won.
Several Stars Out
A number of stars of previous meets among them Edgar Catese. James Dudley, Leon King, and others did not participate in the meet and as a result there were no new marks in some events due to the absence of 152 participants in the meet as compared with 299 last year, and 234 in 1927.

WILSON'S BAT DEATH TO HILLDALE OUTFIT
The Baltimore Black Sox, with "Babe Ruth" Bone smacking the horsehide at opportunistic moments, demonstrated their right to continue leadership of the American League by drooping Darby Sanders, by the scores of 4-3 and 4-2, the first game going 10 innings. The Sox tallied one run in the 6th and another in the eighth, knotting the count. Failure of either team to score in the ninth had the fans on edge. In the ninth, with Lee on second and two out, Jess Ribbard had disappointed by making an easy
Wilson Ends Game
Wilson, the first man up in the locals' half of the tent, waited out the first two offerings of Dallie Cooper, but when the third one came whizzing and curving in his plate, the firm, fine baseman, stewed himself, took a lustily claw, the ball, and at the sound of wood and horsehide meeting, the stands rose as a man.
Oscar Charleston, playing in deep centerfield, began a trot for in and as the blue hooded white speck, the pair, alike, came riding out, he stopped and watched it as it cleared the fence with several feet to spare. So overjoyed were the supporters of the locals, that when Wilson trotted across the home plate, the crowd surged out onto the field, of almost all colors, who were soon colored for the mighty "Babe," as a token of their appreciation.
Second Game Close
It was Wilson again, in the second contest, who was largely responsible in bringing about victory, as he started an 8th inning rally with a single, that netted three runs for the locals. Phil Cockrell faced “Script” Lee in the final contest.

PHILADELPHIA. — Phil Edwards, slender captain of New York University's traz team runaway against some of the best college halfbacks in the country last Saturday in the ranks of the fifty-third annual inter-collegiate A.A.A.A. championships here at Franklin Field, shattered the mark of one minute 51 seconds set by Ted Meredith back in 1915.

Kept Out of Mile
Emil Von Etting, coach of NHL announced after the meet that he kept Edwards out of the mile race and that Meredith's half chance to thwart her before Saturday, Meredith's 800 runs set fourteen years ago hadn't been closely approached. Everett Uttacker, of the University of Pittsburgh, competing in the finals of the running broad jump played fifth in this event. Dave Myers, trackmate of Phil Ewards at N.Y.U., considered from the showing in the Penshaw to be a javelin thrower of the country, failed in the finals of the javelin throw. On Fri he finished second in his trial. History was made in the javelin throw that he threw the last in more than 200 feet, a feat more before equaled.

Howard U. Trustees Balk on West
NOMINATION OF WEST FOR H. U. COACH, HELD UP
Trustees Decline to Accept Recommendation of Athletic Committee.
MORGAN GAME CAUSE
Rowdy Tactics of Former Mentor Recalled.
WASHINGTON, D. C. (Special)—Definite indication that the services of football coach Dr. Charles West, are not wanted at Howard University next year, was given here last week when a committee from the Board of Trustees declined to accept his nomination for the post, which had been sent in by the Board of Athletic Control
Even in the Board of Athletic Control there had been dissension on the matter of re-employing the former Washington and Jeff star, for it was by the scantiest truth, the nomination result. The vote of the alumni and the three possible members of the board made it possible for the name to pass, as the faculty members, Dr. Davis, chairman, Dean Dr. Wright Holmes, Dr. J. Scott, and C. W. Davis, director of physical education voted negatively.
Board Members Strike
Action of the trustees in rejecting West's name immediately resulted in dismission among the members of the Board of Athletic Control and alumni members of the board that had lured to the site the remaining members
Must Be Family Member
The stresses in reeasing the name of West demanded that the Board of Athletic Control confer with the College of Liberal Arts and the Department of Physical Education and name a man as coach who would also have status as a member of the faculty. There has been a growing feeling against the use of seasonality. Howard, the former being that a coach who is a member of the faculty is more like to enjoy the spirit of amateur athletes than one whose job ends at the close of the football season.
Alumni Association
It is likely that the Howard general alumni association will act on the withdrawal of its representatives from the Board of Athletic Control and their refusal to co-operate in naming next year's coach. Mr. Carter said he knew nothing of West's野蛮 atlites in Baltimore, at the time he voted for the reappointment. Traced To Morgan Game
Objection to the retention of West as coach at Howard had its beginning when West became belligerent at the Morgan-Howard game in last fall, and narrowly escaped arrest when he was charged with having "rused out" one of the policemen stationed to keep order at the game.
Wet told motorcycle officer William Taylor to "go to hell, you son of a blankety blank." He also threatened to slap the face of Umpire Elmer Burges, who had objected to his presence on the field during the game, and later was guilty of retaliation by student Jeffrey refusing to ordinate by student Dr. E. P. Davis. West's attitude was largely responsible for the migratory tendencies displayed by Howard players and rookers, as they were following his lead. Secret Caucus. Shortly after this occurrence secret causes were held by alumun and students, and the worst case was the best would be fired immediately after the Howard-Lincoln game. Because of his close association with students at Howard West built up a following that has supported him in spite of the growing sentiment against him, and it was this same student support, coupled with that of alumni, that was responsible for his name being presented in renomination before the Board of Trustees.
Never Heard Charge Before
Alumni members of the Board of
Athletic Control are J. M. Carter,

A COLYUM OR SO AGO we invited correspondence from the readers of their favorite colum, to send in their versions of what can be done to keep a coach at a school for a longer period than is now in vogue.
An unsigned reader, from Philadelphia, types us as follows: "In your 'Passing Review' you discuss 'what to do to keep a coach at a school.' Correspondence on the matter is invited and I am taking the liberty to offer a suggestion.
"The writer has been an observer of Negro college and school athletics for the past decade or more. It seems to me that the one cure for the malady of too frequent changes in coaching personnel in colleges and universities, especially your two leading institutions in the East, is the long term contract system based on the principle enunciated by Hull Singham athletic director at Harvard, in spite of the Harvard Clintonham team, discussing the coaching situation at Harvard in which Arnold Horween has figured quite prominently for the past three years, drawing an unlimited attack from critics—students, alumni, public.
"Mr. Bingham said, 'I make no pretense at being an expert on picking a football coach, but perhaps I can remind you of a policy which I adopted in 1926 and which I still believe, and that was that I should insist only on two things from a coach—first, that he be the right type of man, and, secondly, that he have something to teach and teach it intelligently.
"The present coach fulfills both of these requirements. You need only ask any of the boys who have played him how they feel about him and how he has given me that skill, and how he coaches that he was better this year than last year and he was better last year than the year before, and one of the tests of intelligence is progress from experience.'
"Now if a contract for three, five or more years be given a coach of this type, the institution and the coach are at once relieved of a great deal of anxiety over this period. Obviously, the coach will do his best to make good and if he rings true to Mr. Bingham's standard, the institution can not be embarrassed. There will result a minimum of adverse criticism and whatever the criticism of this kind, it can be easily answered by the administration in some such language as this: 'We are under contract which we propose to carry out. If the execution of this obligation, the record of this coach is such that a change is desired, we shall change otherwise, the coach will be retained under contract for another term.' "The institution should have enough character to determine upon a policy and stick to it in spite of prejudices and criticisms and your schools especially need stabilization in this field if progress is to be made.

Fighters Have Fruitful Week
"Must cigar smokers be endangered?
M.
How often have you been disgusted with the filthy, germ-breeding places where some cigars are made...dark, stuffy factories .. warm, dingy shops and windows .. where cigars are rolled by careless, dirty lips and fingers and spit on the ends! What a far cry this is from the modern, certified "Cremo-method" of manufacture!
Cremo's superiority starts with the choicest and tenderest leaves, ripe and mellow, and continues in goodness through a slow, expensive maturing and mellowing process...topped off with the finest imported Sumatra wrapper! Cremo contains no scrap—no floor sweepings—all longfiller—all fresh, tender leaves. Over $7,000,000 was spent in perfecting the certified "Cremo-method" of manufacture that insures uniformly fine, sanitary cigars. Foil-wrapped...germ-free...crush-proof...the kind of cigar that the late Vice-President Marshall must have had in mind when he said: "What this country needs most is a good 5 cent cigar."

GODFREY, WILLIAMS, JONES, WIN FIGHTS
PHILADELPHIA. (Special) — Godfrey Godfrey scored a technical knockout over Jimmy Byrne, white of Louisville, Ky., in the seven innings, and 19 runs batted here Monday night at the Philhies' ball park.
Godfrey weighed in at 2491 pounds and George Byrne tipped the篮 at 200 pounds even. Byrne was down for a count of nine and when he arose Referee Leo Houck halted the bout to prevent further punishment. Byrne was one and the most of 10,000 fans who braved the chill winds to see this spectacle were disappointed.
Byrne, with a string of 29 victories over colored fighters took a terrific beating. Godfrey hitting him with 14 angles was only a question how long he could wriststand this slugging.
Gorilla Jones Wins
BOSTON—Gorilla Jones, sensational wetterweight, demonstrated his ring ability by technically knocking out Al Mello, white, of Lowell, in the sixth round of a ten-round bout, his home court. Jones's terifice right hand punches carried too much steam for Mello who was floored for the count of nine in the fourth round, and again in the sixth, when Jones cut loose to a barrage of right and left hooks to Mello's manager then tossed in the towel to save his man further damage.
Williams Stops Fay
NEW YORK—Leo Williams, slugging Harleen Fay, stopped Harry Fay, white, of Louisville, in the fifth round of a schuled 10 round match, at the Dexter Park Arena, here Monday night.
A stiff right to the chin drove Fay

CHICAGO. (ANP) - Ralph Metcalfe, the stocky lad who carried Tilden's colors in Staggs National Interscholastic meet at the University of Chicago, stated that he, when he not only equaled the meet record in the hundred yard dash, by reeling off the yardage in 9 and 8-10 seconds, which was established by Edith Tolan, but second scoring honors for the day.

Alfred W. M. Tann
D. Litt., A.B., LL.D., noted pure food expert, long active in crusades for pure foods and sanitary factories.
"When you put a Cremo between your lips, you are protecting yourself from any possible infection from unsanitary tobaccos—you're playing safe.
"Every tobacco leaf entering the Cremo factory is scientifically sterilized by U. S. Government approved methods. And every sanitary precaution known to science is taken to safeguard this purity along every step of the way.
"Each Cremo is folded, wrapped and tipped by amazing inventions! In factories that are models of cleanliness... air-flooded, sun-bathed, scientifically clean!
"And to protect its purity until it reaches your mouth, each Cremo is instantly sealed in a separate foil wrapper.
"So when you smoke a Cremo, you get the same scientific health protection that comes with certified milk!"

Junior Matrons Entertain Guests at Penn Hotel
The Blue Room at Penn Hotel on last Tuesday evening, made a beautiful scene as you danced under a canopy of varied crepe paper, with streamers forming a kind of mosaic and which the Blue Jay orchestra played. Plenty of refreshing punch, an ideal evening and the unusually jolly spirit of the guests, made the affair even more enjoyable on the gregiously gowned ladies completed the setting. Favors of powder puffs were given to each lady. The hostesses left nothing unturned to prevent an enjoyable evening.

What a week—musical festivals by the elementary schools—a wonder art exhibit at the Museum of Art and Junior proms—Sheldon House annual exhibit by his dancing school—Hamilton an ideal summer usual season for brides, to the social calendar for cremations and to the flowers, to the blooms, and the line of marches to the events that have happened. Memorial Day draws the empire and beautiful the kind of attentions that lures one to the bathing beach, country sides and along the road,
at its Hitchhatch for, instance, a number of cottages had house guests over the winter, while the beach was a list of color as brightly colored bounties, sums of patrons, a woman and bathing suits of man, woman, transformed the slickly sand, flower garden.
Among the Baltimoreers seed on the bay, both were the Harry McCormack and William Brown, the William Credits, Dr. and Mrs. Leak, Grace and her guest for the day, Mrs. Grace, and the Mrs. Butler was there, Helen Reynolds, Ann Berry, plus the hotels which were crowded with guests who took lunch and went in bus.

EDICOS' DELIGHTFUL OUTING AND DANCE
Among the important social events of the past week was the delightful outing and dance of the Edicos.
Just the mentioning of Edgewater Shore in itself, gave promise of a delightful after-noon and evening, and though card playing and cruising along the water's edge would have filled an afternoon's program, the hosts did not depend upon them entirely at a means of diversion. Dancing and ukulele melodies added to the pleasures of the day.
Despite the popularity of its members individually, this was the first social appearance of the club.
Stunning sport attire of latest designs adorned the ladies while the men were nifty in white flannels and blue coats. Assorted sandwiches, soft crabs, punch

Carlton Welcomes Colored Trade
The color of a man's skin and the texture of his hair is of secondary importance to the Carlton Hat Company, who operates stores at Saratoga and Eutaw streets. Baltimore and St. Anne streets and 420. Franklin street.
In an interview with the AFRO Wednesday, the manager of Carlton Hat company, who had been informing me that we were not so particular about colored patronage, declared that the Carlton Hat Company's policy was to treat each and every customer alike in our stores, "was the terse reply to the AFRO reporter who had informed him that the tactics used by certain companies for selling of Baltimore colored citizens to Philadelphia and New York to do their buvings.
Another glowing tribute pald the colored men of Baltimore by the hat company, who knew what kind of hats they want and were willing to nav for them, and that no one need try to fool them, that we were willing to tease between first class goods from cheaper qualities.

If you have never been to a housewarming in a casket factory, you have missed one of the really enjoyable social functions of the year. Annually, I am given to understand, all of the undertakers, embalmers, professional pall bearers, licensed mourners and others connected with the great industry of seeing that the late lamented of the commonwealth are safely embarked on that long journey will no man returneth, are the guests of the National Casket Company, whose factory is located on Lombard street and Fallsway.
Embalming Aristocracy
More by accident than design, two snapping newspaper men, seeing so many of our embalming aristocracy heading toward the Fallsway neighborhood, feared the short hiatus that particular section and rushed post haste to the scene of the suspected calamity. That, My Dears, is how Bill Gibson and I luteed our tense and tense 'luthers' luthers' crashing the gate on one of the smallest crashing and one of the most, entertaining embalming exhibitions it has been my good fortune to see in many a day. Undertakers are by no means the most important pilots you would suspect. Oh no! I never saw anybody have so much fun amid piles of caskets in my life. The higher the coffins were stacked the longer the nightlight was attached the happier they became.
Undertakers are rather clamish: They recognize a fellow practitioner-if you call them that—on sight. They have hips by the uncomfortable look upon our faces, and nobody seemed at all surprised when we broke down and confessed that we were not undertakers at all. They were, however, glad to meet us, and inquired about what we were going to ask to take me how I am feeling. I hate to see that look of disappointment in his face when I say, "I never felt better in my life."
Latest Styles
They made us feel as welcome as we could possibly feel under such circumstances. They showed us some of the latest styles in shrouds, and pressed down on lacy couches to show us how soft they were. (An undertaker with much pleasure in displaying his wares to suit me.)

Dying—a tour through the store rooms proved—is becoming a much more colorful experience nowadays than formerly. No longer is it necessary to spend an eternity in a drab gray or black box. Things are much more elaborate now. You can pick out almost any color you prefer. One may choose a beautiful casket of flesh and an gold limited colour or an orchid brocade, or they may an orchid brocade, an ivory or orchid or orchid silk.
Present-Day Coffins
Then, too, you are relieved of much of the worry of former Present-day coffins are guaranteed and are said to be airlifted watertight. This at least gives you a feeling of security in the fact that, while no man knows the length and breadth of eternity, you are at least what satisfaction you would get, should— say, about 250 years from now—something go wrong: I really don't know if a company owns from their deceased customers.
This house warming, affair was topped off with an exhibition in embalming. A lecturer took one of the coffins from the morgue and came from New York to demonstrate on a body that they borrowed from the city morgue, which due to the fact that it was unclaimed by relatives, would have probably been without this preservative measure.
The assembled morticians looked on with much of the interest, but little of the understanding, of a first-stiff stiff. They thrilled over it. Watching them, I imagined that even an understanners' picnic would not be complete with a couple of embalmings to make a house warm in a casket (factory around your neighborhood, you really must attend. You'll have a delightful time if you have a dormant storm of agery running short. You've been doing things gloomy and great—in short, if you are an understarter.

25TH SESSION
32 States Represented at Meeting of Young Church Workers in Cleveland.
TWELVE THEMES
Program Includes All Phases of S.S. and B.Y.P.U. Work.
By RALPH MATTHEWS
CLEVELAND, Ohio—Like Moses leading the children of Israel, Dr. Henry Allen Boyd arrived in the city aboard a special train Tuesday night accompanied by three hundred delegates and a brass band, to open the twenty-fifth annual National Baptist Sunday School Congress, which was in session the entire week at Congregational Temple in this city.
Delegations representing thirty-two states and Baptist leaders from as far west as Los Angeles, California, and Muskegon, Oklahoma; from as far south as Jacksonville, Fla., and city of Lake Charles, Louisiana; and the following days of the sessions, by both train and automobile.
The convention is being entertained by the East Mount Zion Baptist church of which the Rev. Ernest Hare is being held in the Mount Zion Congregational church of which the Rev. C. Edward Brown is the pastor, because of larger accommodations.
HALT DELEGATE SANCHERS.
The first snag of the convention was when it was learned that the arriving trains were being met by persons outside of the denomination and the delegates were being steered to homes other than those arranged for the convention. Although more than six hundred delegates had arrived in the city by ten-thirty. Tuesday night, not half of this number had reported at the church for assignment, and the delegates that certain questionable hotels and lodging houses had stretched imposing signs across their front, labeled: "Headquarters of the Baptist Sunday Gates" and "The Baptist Sunday Gates were being led unsuspectingly into alleeed bawdy houses and gambling rendezvous.
These signs were ordered taken down by authorities after a complaint was registered.
The Congress was opened unofficially Tuesday night with a sacred concert by a choral club of one hundred by City Manager W. R. Hookins on behalf of the city of Cleveland. The official session opened Wednesday morning. Committees were assigned to every meeting room of the sanctioned college district to discuss school problems and the findings of these groups were brought to the entire assembly each evening.
Bath, Hair Cut Lure Youth Homeward
Desire for a bath and hair cut drew Clarence Morris, 18. 533 Mosher street, homeward bound this week. Morris was born in the FRO-AFROMICAN last week. His mother, Mrs. Hattie Bishop Lawrence, told the FRO-AFROMICAN that she had heard from her run-away son and that he had had a broken arm and suit and shirt. Morris left home with a roomer by the name of Brown. He had reached Westover. Md. when he heard from his sister, who had suit and $15 in money and I am expecting the prodigal son home," she said.

To Change Luck
Do you know that thousands of people burn incense just to "change their luck"? And claim to get real luck? And claim to be luckier? Biological days, when burning incense can be believed to have miraculous power for the priests, the priests of the church, and all burned incense with similar faith. The amazing new incense known as Lucky Star, with similar chimes used in crude form known thousands of years ago. But now it is adapted into odd-shaped Stars, with chimes of years ago.
The odor is wonderful and they are so sweet, according to directions in the book, $1.00 for a full-size box of "Lucky Stacks" or "to-do lists." Money back if you are not.

IN MEMORIAM
BAYTOP—In loving memory of my darling mother. Mrs. Charlotte Baytop, who died June 6, 1912. Seventeen lonely years have passed, dear mother. Since angels came for you; Yet thru the most of those long
Dear mother, just
Your love will keep HENRIETTA
MOORE, TEMPEL SELF and JOSHUA
WHITING.
PROPHET—In loving memory of my
dear brother, Sandy Prophet, who
departed this life five years ago, June
3, 1924.
My heart still aches with sadness.
I have shed many tears;
Although your hand cannot clasp
your ace I cannot see.
But let this little token show I still
think of thee.
By his SISTER.
DUNSTON—In memory of my wife,
Alice Dunston, who passed away
June 8, 1928, one year ago.
She has one to the home of her
Savior.
When her head and bore her away;
From earth's sorrow and suffering
and heartaches.
To that calm of the endless day.
Husband, CHARLES DUNSTON.
GOODIN—In memory of my dear wife, Ruth Goodin, who departed this life seven years ago, May 18, 1922.
A precious one from us has gone,
The one we loved so dear;
A chair is vacant in our home,
That never can be filled.
Devoted husband, J. W. GOODIN and FAMILY.
MURRAY—In sad but loving remembrance of our dear son and brother, William, who died June 6, 1923.
Gone but never forgotten.
As the years go slowly by,
One by one we must die;
Then we will meet the one we love in the sunny land above.
We will meet the one God took away, From us six years ago today.
The relationship is broken,
God has called him home,
But God will give him back to us When we meet around the throne.
Even death has a wonderful mission,
Though it robs us of those we love;
It draws us from our surroundings,
To long for the meeting above.
WHITING—In loving memory of our brother, Jesse P. Whiting, who departed this life one month ago, May 5, 1929.
We have only your memory, dear brother.
To remember our w kole lives through
But the loneliness will linger forever.
We will love and play for you.
Loving sister and brother TEMPLS and JOSHUA.
I stod beside your casket
A man who once placed your hair
Upon your dear sweet forehead.
I left my last kiss there.
Devoted sister, HENRIETTA MOORE.

Dear Sirs: Please send me by mail, a call, a photo of your wonderful Spanola.
My skin is dark and bad and I just want to see not only what will change, I saw a lady yesterday here who had used your treatment and wish you could on her skin. She was much darker than I and now she is real light. She is fine and doesn't look like the same person.
Please do not delay. Send me the mail and I will be ready to pay postman upon arrival. Am looking for an early reply. My truly, (MISS) A. S. —
Pine Bluff, Ark.
People everywhere are amazed at the lovely whiteness Spanola imparts to their skins. Test it and see!
