Enrollment Jumps But Instructors Remain Same. CHARLOTTE, N. C.—T.S. Jackson, R. A. Thornton, C. D. Williams, J. C. Bryant, C. Randolph Taylor and Dean J. Henry Alston have severed their relations from Johnson C. Smith university. The lack of educational policy and culture to President H. L. McCreegan award efficiency is said to have had these resignations. In the past three years, there have been no salary increases, and for a year president McCreegan announced an annual increase of $100 to professors not occupying school or school houses. Prof. S. D. Williams, employed at the institution for the past nine years, was refused endorsement for General Education Board scholarship as well as Taylor. Although during the past three years the major system has been persecuted and this year the first class presented with a major and minor, the president fails to provide notice of the term that the dean teach psychos and German (five classes) and the registrar, Latin and French Enrollment Increases Backwardness in administration is reported on every hand since the college enrollment has substantially increased since 1926, and yet the maths faculty has been cut there, listening the effectiveness and efficiency of the work. In 1928 five college teachers severed ties with the institution and this class, including the dean of the class. 14 on College Faculty Since there are only fourteen members on the college faculty an investigation into the cause of such a high poison in the cause of such a high percentage of turnover in the faculty is expected.

SAY JUSTICE MISCARRIED IN GIRL'S TRIAL SAY JUSTICE MISCARRIED IN GIRL'S TRIAL White Shanty Girl, 15, Was Freed of Killing Boy Charleston Dancer. TOWSON, Md.—That justice miscarried in the trial of Mrs. Katherine Caridi, White Hall quarry shanty wife, who shot to death Charles E. Smith, 16, in her home several months ago, is the opinion of Towson residents. Mrs. Caridi (who is white) was tried in Towson Criminal Court, before Judges Frankl. Duncan and C. Gus Grayson, testified that the shooting was an accident and that she did not threaten to kill the boy because he did not continue to dance the Charleston as was testified to by two white lads at the inquest and trial. Give Views Among those giving their views on the matter were James Fields, James Williams, Melvin Wells, Mrs. C. Corgle, Dumas Robinson, Edward Robinson and Mrs. Rachel Williamson, of whom commented on the fact that evidence given at the trial was far different from that given at the inquest hearing. District Attorney Courtney Jenifer, they were of the opinion, do not believe that evidence that would have shown that the dead boy was making an effort to get away when shot by the girl. Mrs. C. Corgle, who says she knows told an AO-AMERICAN N.Reterator that no one she had talked to in Towson believed the shooting was an accident. If it was an accident, most of them say, it was the kind of an accident that would be caused by letting a girl pistol welder go, by scot free. White Boys There Three white boys at the Caridii home on the dav of the killing testified either at the incident or at the Charles Spero, Glide Grenicer and Louis Gazett. Spero testified that considerable of merriment was in progress before the Charles, when he became fired. Katherine demanded that he continue to dance. When he refused, she pointed to the fire and as he ran, she fired the fatal shot. When asked by counsel for the defense at the trial whether he thou she meant to kill the boy, he stated that he did not. Considerable comment was made on the fact the District Attorney Courtney Jenifar made no statement upon the state's lawsuit to convict the young wife. The evidence of William Smith, a brother of the dead boy, that Mrs. Cardi had on one occasion threatened to show him that was not allowed to go into the record. The Sordid Picture. The AFRO-AMERICAN reporter found a sordid picture shattering the same opinion that, even if the shooting was not intended there was too much criminal negligence to warrant acquittal was more likely. Strelton, Norman Javis and others inter-levied declared it was a shame, but was to be expected. No Color Bar for New York Teachers NEW YORK—There will be no discrimination against any teacher in the New York public school system on account of color, Superintendent of Schools O'Shea told the Jamaica Park Civic answer to their request that no Ne-dermats be permitted to teach in F.S. last week. "We have an eligible list," he said, "and this list is before us. We do not know whether the candidates are white or colored or what they are." The group has regularly passed a difficult examination given by the Board of Examiners and are legally entitled to teach in the school system. As long as teachers be they the teachers, be they the gentlemen, protests against them can have no effect."

AVON LONG, DOUGLASS HI SENIOR, GONE Youth Disappears When Notified He Would Not Graduate With Class. TEACHERS BLAMED Disheartened and disappointed because he was not named on the graduate list at the Douglass High School, Avon Long, credited with being one of the most popular boys in the institution, declared his intention to go away and never return, before he disappeared last week. Long was notified that he would not be permitted to graduate last Monday, after he had made plans to attend commencement festivities. The principal refused to divulge what subjects the boy failed to pass, but it is known that Physics was among the num Was Entertainer The principal of the school in an interview declared that the boy had remarkable talent, being a direction placing more stress on the extra curricular activities than he did on his actual class work. He refused to divulge any information concerning his academic record. Long has for several years attracted considerable attention as an entertainer, being both a dancer and a singer. He has also an art professionally as an entertainer the Regent Theatre and in New York City. His many friends believe he will try for a stage career. Students are much incensed because he was permitted to appear in the heavy opera. "The Flying Dog man," which he performed, is still being notified of his deficiency. It is 'hought that he may have been able to make up the back work had he been not allowed and prevented in appearing in enquiries. He was also the winner of the Harry S. McCaddel medal for declaration which also required considerable study. This content was supposed to be open only to eli- No information could be obtained from the parents of the youth concerning his whereabouts. Although school does not close on weekends, 265 Long has not reported to school since the day he received his notification.

This was the reaction of Congressman Oscar DePriest to legislators in Florida and Texas who passed resolutions last week condemning Mrs. Herbert Hoover for inviting Mr. DePriest to a White House tea. The interview was given to local newspapermen. Mr. DePriest was the guest of Louis A. Lind, 1019 Ridge avenue, Darby, Sunday, en route to Lawnside, N. J. where he made an address in the afternoon to an enthusiastic audience. "That crowd is just barbarian," Mr. DePriest declared. "It is impossible for them to be civilized and still do such a thing. "The best thing is not to pay any attention to things done by southern legislators like those in Texas. They just don't know what they are doing. "I favor settlement of all quarrels by peaceful, lawful means, but it seems to me that these people sometimes deserve summary action." "The whites in the South need a lot of education, certainly at least as much as the Negroes need. VOTERS COULD HALT THEM. "When the Negroes of Texas are sufficiently educated, they will see to it that such legislators are never "In many southern communities, the Negroes have the balance of power between the Democrats and the Republicans. We use that power—not for their own advantage, but for that of the entire community." "BIG BILL." Mr. DePriest had praise for "Big Bill" Thompson, mayor of Chicago, who have always been a yearler, have always been a supporter of William Hale Thompson. All this you hear about his being a bad influence is the Thompson "the people." "When I was seven years old," Mr. DrPriest said. "I went down a road in Alabama one day and there were people from trees. I have never forgotten that sight, and I never will." PHILADPHIA HOPELESS. Mr. DrPriest sees the time when colored people will become aware of the need to defend and will demand their rights as a race and get them just an individual demands his rights as a man. He said the Negroes of Philadelphia he said, "are almost hopeless. With all the opportunity in the world they still have no political power whatever they must be dead from." ASBURY REPLIES J. C. Asbury, assistant district attorney, denied the congressman's reference to Philadelphia as politically dead. Mr. DearPriest, he said, made the mistake of coming to Philadelphia under the auspices of those not connected with the regular Republican office. "For this reason, he did not receive the proper kind of reception here." BISHOP'S SON FIGHTS DIVORCE DETROIT, Mich.—Dewey Leake son of Rt. Rev. R. H. W.

The Fraternal and Solvent Bank which was one of the largest race institutions in the world, closed its doors the latter part of December 1927, with impairments of assets reaching more than a million dollars, due, it is said, to embezzlement on the part of officials. Not only did thousands of depositors lose their life savings but another bank and several other business institutions were engulfed in the crash. Several hundred children who had participated in a savings project in the public schools also lost their money. Dr. Martin, who was a personal friend of Ward, is said to have been unliring in his efforts to have him released from prison. Another vice-president of the bank, Dr. J. E. Walker, who was arrested when the bank failed was exonerated when his case came to trial about two weeks ago. ONE A SUICIDE.

RACE FARMERS GAIN LITTLE BY NEW FARM BILL Lack of Cooperative Organizations Among Small Tillers, Is Cause. Migration to Cities Will Result; Act of 1916 Cited. WASHINGTON, D.C.—Lack of agricultural cooperative organizations will shut out Negro farmers from any except general benefits from the farm relief legislation of this Congress. The farm relief bill was signed by President Hoover last Saturday. At the same time the President announced that he is asking Congress for an initial appropriation of $150,000,000 of the $500,000,000 revolving fund authorized by the measure. The selection of the members of the federal farm board, set up by the terms of the bill to administer the revolving fund to be used in loans to agricultural cooperatives and stabilization corporations for various commodities, the President said, will require two or three weeks. Vacancy While there was some agitation or the appointment of a colored man to a vacancy on the Federal Farm Loan Board, no cognizance was taken of it by the President. It was the man to membership on the newly created Federal Farm Board will be proposed but with no degree of sin- Nine Members In choosing the nine persons who are to constitute the Federal Farm Board, it is not necessary to give consideration to any colored man who may be proposed for membership. He plans to distribute the membership regional to farmers who have been actually engaged in directing farmers marketing organizations; to provide an assistant to a resident provides for the creation of a Federal Farm Board of nine members including the Secretary of Agriculture as a member; to be appointed to be designated as chairman by the President. The eight appointed members of the board will be appointed to $12,000 a year. The board is authorized to make loans for agricultural co-operative organizations and commodity stabilization corporations of a revolving fund of $500,000,000. Corporations The stabilization corporations are to be empowered to accredit commodities in order to bring about orderly marketing conditions and as selling cooperatives. As far as could be asserted there are no Negro agricultural co-operative organizations or commodity stabilization companies. 825,708 Farmers The census of 1920 showed 825,708 Negro farmers operating among 182 acre farms 828,612 farms 828,612 owners whose farm property was valued at $545,180.03.

Blease had his resolution read, but withdrew it after protest by Senator Walter E. Edge, (Rep., N.J.), and Senator Bingham, who made points of order against it and asked that it be laid on the table. Senator King (Dem., Utah), Senator Walsh (Dem., Montana), Senator Borah (Rep., Idaho), joined in the protest. Senator Bingham claimed the resolution was worded so "as to give offense to hundreds of thousands of our fellow citizens and to give offense to the Declaration of Independence and our Constitution."

WASHINGTON, D. C.— Several weeks ago a local hotel refused to serve a party of prominent Nordics, whose skins had been dyed by smart sun-tan preparations to a swarthy hue. They were mistaken for a "mixed" group by the management. Immediately afterward a sharp decrease was noted in the demands for and sales of the cosmetics which produce the healthful glow of tan without the torture of the sun's rays. Cosmeticians who have imported gallons of the liquid not unlike a rich chocolate soda canance, and hundered bounds of the powder, are desperately trying to reinterest the social leaders in the brown-skinned facet. "The rage in Europe—the smartest thing here—a rich coat of tan—girlish sun-tanned beauty" fails to interest Washington women who go about "looking strangely pale and to quote a foreign lawyer, than risk the embarrassment of being mistaken for their beautiful, and smartly dressed colored sisters. In several cities, they are told, no woman considers herself half smart would appear on the streets without her coat of sun-tan, pro- duced either by make-up or treatment under sun-lamps. Very Best "The Washingtonian." Washington's social review, formerly the "Mayflower Log," claims that few but the "very best people are using it The fashion editor of the Washington Herald says in commenting upon the situation, "I want to so to have everyone insinuate that Washingtonians are so much less smart than other women, particularly other American "Every magazine article we read, and every dispatch from Paris takes about sun-tan, and we have to come to the same way we metics.

It was not maintained that Dr. Gregg had the hostility of the white teachers so much as it was that all members of the family and student body needed direction by a stronger effort.

"There are no immediate prospect of a standard parent-teacher association at school 120, however desirable such an association is in every colored school in the city." "The chief object of a standard organization is child welfare with a seven fold program for the home and school, for withholds, attitudes and ideals; emphasize worthy home membership; magnify the tools, technic and spirit of learning; practice practical shipship and economic effectiveness; give experience in the wise use of leisure; build ethical character as the supreme value of education; and work on the principal. "The work is new to our school and our principal. Eventually he will be educated to its usefulness and eagerly seek its organization. The organization will not be able to carry out its full duties, but be limited to raising funds for objects determined in advance by the principal. We enter such a struggle and campaign for enlightenment unless the head of this school is willing to carry out its work, and the parents and teachers are anxious to strive together for the objects set down by the National Congress of Parents and Teachers and the Board of Education set three principals in May.

This bill carries a $40,000,000 appropriation for the taking of the census and sets the time for the beginning of that work as April 1, 1930. The House is less to blame than the Senate for the long delay in re-requiring the mandate of the Federal Constitution. The lower branch has twice passed bills upon which the Senate failed to act, filibustering them to death in 1981 and 1982. As it was impossible to kill the bill by these tactics during the extraordinary session which has no time limit, the opponents adopted bevel-ing and sunny amendments, including an amendment to exclude aliens from the court (introduced by Hoch) and an amendment to prived of the right to vote except for rebellion or crime, introduced by Tinkham. Both were added by the Senate but eliminated from the bill finally sent to conference and adopted.

"Mr. Hoover was the first Republican to break the Solid South. His was the opportunity, the first in sixyears, to build a Republican party that he has sacrificed the opportunity. "He has permitted his wife, in the language of the Governor of Texas, to offer 'an affront' to the dominant sentiment of the South that Mr. Hoover did not support That Mrs. Hoover and he did what they did can be set down only to their preference for principle over expediency what principle? Among the Southerners whose opinions are reported in the Northern press, the Hoovers have come out for social equality. No doubt the incident will be interpreted that way alike among the Negroes. If the incident is looked at closely and dispassionately it will be seen that the principle which the Hoovers stood for was the right of the voters of any district to be representative of their own choosing. "Mr. DePriest was duly elected by the voters of the First District of Illinois. He has been duly sworn in as a member of the Congress. It is the custom of the wife of the President to receive the wives of the Congressmen at the White House. Mrs. DePriest is the president of the congressmen who refused to receive her would have been a condemnation by the White House of the action of the electorate in the First District of Illinois. It would have set up qualifications to be a member of the Congress not recognized by the Constitution." "The Hoovers deserve the greatest credit for their willingness to pay the price of observing the letter and taking any other course would have been more convenient. But it would have been to countenance by their own personal decision of direct action, not by the notorious of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments but of Article I."

Gate Tender Earned Living 7 Years Pushing a Button John Doe (that is not his real name), crossing watchman for the Pennsylvania railroad at Halehorne, seven miles southwest from Baltimore, is rounding out his seventh year as guardian of the Francis Avenue railroad crossing. Halehorne is a village inhabited almost exclusively by whites, but Doe's one-man house is outfitted with a stove, a chair and a place for water. Placarded on the house in four-inch black letters is a sign which reads, "Notice. Watchman's full time is required in operating the look-out with him nor loft on remembers." Doe, who is a grass-widower, likes his job and keeps it by being on the look-out for a sign of smoke or a locomotive's whistle which are signals to raise and lower the gates, which is used to control the air. To operate the gates, he simply pushes a button. Time and again, he dofs his hat to the white residents of Halehorne who come and go before him. Most of them have kindness for his turn to help him for an applause, politeness. Nothing, however, stops him from looking up and down the railroad, both ways, as if he expected some kind of assistance without notifying him by a whistle. One motorist remonstrated and became abusive because Doe lowered the gates just as the auto was about to cross over. At this impatience, Doe stopped and asked Congressional Limited thundered past en route to Baltimore. "Why are the gates painted black and white stripes?" "Well," he replied, "they found out that black and white can be seen better; even better than bright red." And with that, Doe turned to wagging his mouth at the AFRO reporter understand that the interview was at an end.

MME.C.J.V 35¢ "25YE Mrs. Hoover's Tea Tops the Booker Washington Lunch MEMPHIS, Tenn.—Mrs. Hoover's entertainment of Mrs. Oscar DePriest at a White House tea far transcends Booker T. Washington's lunching at the White House at the invitation of President Roosevelt, according to John D. Erwin, special Washington correspondent of the Commercial Appeal, in a letter to his paper this week. Erwin regards the DePriest incident as entirely a social gesture and a notice to Washington society which gets its cue from the White House such utterance, the Mrs. DePriest is not the must be restricted to her own race in social contact. In the Booker T. Washington luncheon, Erwin declares, Roosevelt recognized Booker T. and attempted to honor his preeminence as a teacher among his own group. "Washington," says Erwin. "has a large Negro population numbering more than 125,000 with at least two Negro millionaires. There are numerous Negroes of education, wealth and prominence here; they have schools and other institutions far in advance of other cities." The Negroes themselves had not agitated social equality, Erwin mistakenly remarks, until DePriest initiated the movement as one of the leading spokesmen for the Society for the Advancement of the Negro Race. **Stir Up** DePriest, he believes, has done much to stir up his race since his advent there, and there is no privilege accorded a congressman in and about the halls of Congress that he has not exercised. He has made speeches outside the congressional circles urging the Negroes to insist on social equality. "The White House incident not only serves notice that the President's family insists on Mrs. DePriest being received on terms of social equality in Washington generally, but also on the fact that Congressional Ladies' Club, composed of wives of senators and representatives, which took steps last spring to amend its by-laws to have applicants for membership approved by a special committee. This was in anticipation of Mrs. DePriest's arrival." However, she has not applied for membership in the club. **Fears for Others** Erwin fears that some of the other wives of congressmen will not be entertained in the intimate way Mrs. DePriest was by Mrs. Hoover. The small group on this occasion included the wife of the Secretary of War, the wife of the Attorney General, and the wives of four congressmen. Erwin described Mrs. DePriest's desire as of blue Capri chiffon, trimmed with moleskin, moonlight hose and blue slippers.

If any of those women had tried to be insulting, they would have been insulting the wife of the President of the United States because I was her guest just as they were." IN ONE LEAP RALEIGH, N.C.-John H. Livingstone, special Washington correspondent of the Raleigh News and Observer, declares Mrs. DePriest made her climb into social eminence at a single leap. Not before has she been seen in Washington social circles outside of her own race. Livingstone says Hoover has been severely criticized in the Negro press for failure to give recognition to the Negro race. Presumably the invitation to the wife of Mr. DePriest was to offset some of this criticism. Mrs. DePriest recognized she was properly part of the occasion. She was modishly dressed and none there excelled her in correctness of costume.

DePriest recited the fast that of 2,000 people in Norfolk only about 2,000 are qualified to vote. "You will be respected if you will put 20,000 votes in the ballot box," he promised and there was thunderous applause. He warned his hearers against electing a colored man to office or a Republican, and suggested as the wisest course for them to go out and throw their power to the best Democrat, one whom they can trust. Colored voters in Norfolk are too tired to put up any colored person for office, he explained. "IIf I lived down here. Id make friends and help serve those whom I could best use—it's politics, why not?

But an extraordinary congressman, such as the new Congressman from the State of Illinois and the first district thereof, which includes Chicago's financial district, usually has a hectic routine. A lone colored congressman, he must serve as Member of Congress of the 12000 American citizens whose weare to dear to his heart. This accounts for a very strenuous program of procedure in his office and his enormous governmental responsibilities. Congressman Oscar DePriest is a hard worker. That is not all. While he directs his works, and is frequently seen taking a physical hand in CITY DEATH RATE HIGHEST IN ALABAMA CITY DEATH RATE HIGHEST IN ALABAMA D. C. Also Shows Drop Over 1921 Figures. WASHINGTON, J. C., (C.N.S.) —Telegraphic returns from 64 cities with a total population of thirty millions, the week ending June indicates an attack rate of 12.0 as against 12.9 for the corresponding week last year. The highest rate (17.6) appears for Birmingham, Ala., and the lowest (5.8) for Duluth, Minn. The highest infant mortality rate (172) appears for New Bedford, Mass., and the lowest for Milwaukee, Calif., and Seattle, Wash., which reported no infant mortality. The annual rate for 64 cities is 14.3 for the tenety-three weeks of 1920, as against a rate of 14.2 for the corresponding weeks of 1926. Baltimore In Baltimore the total deaths for the week ending June 8, were 176 against 226 for the corresponding week of 1928. Of these 127 were white and 109 were as white as the 168 and 76 colored for the corresponding week of 1928. Washington In Washington. D. C., the total for the week was 115 as against 146 for the corresponding week of 1928. Of these 80 were in Washington. Of the 63 corresponded to 83 and 63 respectively for the corresponding week of 1928. Fifteen Per Cent In Baltimore, the colored population in 1920 constituted 48 percent and in Washington, D. C., it makes up about 28 per cent of the total. Other Cities Similar marked decreases in deaths for the week were shown for both the white and colored population in Indianapolis, New Orleans and Nashville, with slight decreases in Kansas City, Kansas; Memphis and Richmond.

His routine is a vigorous one. At any moment, between 6 and 7:30 a.m., he is out of bed and indulging in some form of vigorous and exhilarating exercise. The Record The first piece of reading matter in his hands is the Congressional Record. This publication is delivered to the door of every congressman on the morning following the session, hence at the breakfast table congressmen can see the record of the previous day's proceedings. This is quite necessary, for in the heart of debate and the multitude of matters the congress is hard even for a congressman to know all that is going on before him, and quite frequently behind him. Drinks no Coffee or Tea. Oscar DePriest drinks no coffee, no tea, seldom drinks milk—yet to tell the truth, he is certainly not a dry. He says he comes from a district that is "five to one W-E-T" and all know what that spells. His breakfast consists of a small ghee, juice or a cereal, ham and eggs, or bacon and eggs, with a copious supply of hot biscuits, which is a sort of masterpiece at the DePriest breakfast table. This congressman, originally from down in "Bam," likes his ham and cabbage, and while he is not from a deliciate variety of a certain part of the swine. Strawberry Shortcake On certain occasions when strawberry shortcake is on the bill of fare, Mrs. DePriest herself invades the culinary department of her home and makes shortcake, of which the congressman is very proud. Mr. DePriest sees the best he can do, but his appetite is accounted for by the fact that his boyhood luncheons are frequently limited to corn pone and molasses. While he used to work for $1.00 a week pasturing cows in his boyhood (and by the way, he saved eleven dollars of his first twelve weeks' pay), he is now where he doesn't worry much, with Uncle Samuel making regular contributions. After breakfast and the task of reading the Record and the morning street car or an extraordinary Cadillac, he finds his way to his office. There's where the real war is. Two Assistants No ordinary secretary can take care of the work of this office, and even now, he has two busy assistants. The office is under the supervision of Morris Lewis of Chicago, who served for a number of years as a private secretary in the staff of the United States Department of the Pentagon, under Commissioner General Ferdinand Peck, appointed by President McKinley, with headquarters during that year in Paris, France. But even an efficient secretary like Mr. Lewis needs more than three-quarters of an hour to open mail, sort it and place it before the secretary, with short, snappy and (sometimes sharp) directions. Out of a cousel of letters but few are retained for the personal attention of the lawmaker. Dictation In a rapid fire dictation, that job is finished and the tail of Sycamore the Wabash, as he is called in Chicago, strides out for a shave in the barber shop of the House Office building. On his return there are a dozen or more telegrams ready for his O.K. one to Nashville, another to San Francisco, the other to Seattle, seven to Chicago a few for New York. One of two hasty telephone calls, some in and some out, and then the startling sound of the huge electric bell in the hallway. Upon asking what all that racket is about, the congressman says "Why, that's my bell calling me to go to work on the floor." He warns that the great. House of Representatives will convene under the gavel of Speaker Nicholas Lonworth. By the Subway The congressman departes—there is a distinct lull in which one missed his booming voice above the hum of typewriters. The congressman makes his way through the subway to meet fellow settlers with numerous colleagues on their way to attend to the nation's business. He gains his seat as the gavel sounds and the House begins its considerations and spends several hours listening to the harangue and hubub, conferring and testing for or against countless measures which are presented. House Adjourns Back to "130" two score of more callers are received and satisfied, fingers dances over the keys and the day flies along. Then the bell rings again and everyone stops to listen and count. One—the call for tellers on a pro-spective vote. It rings again—they will take the years and nays and a third time—a quotation is present and all members of their offices must be their place on the floor. It rings a fourth time and no more—the House has adjourned and the congressman will be along soon. Callers Those waiting in the office are then assured that the congressman will soon be ready to see callers. He comes in and sits down. Before him is a pile of letters awaiting signature. Between signatures he talks to callers. One wants compensation and a pension from the Civil War, this particular case, has been presented, the previous congressman and has gone the round of many governmental departments only to be slyly slipped into the office of this new and unsuspecting congressman who in his benevolent view of things will offer to try to do almost anything and everything. "That's all right," says he. "My secretary will take care of that." Poor secretary. All Kid Home Toilette About five of the three times he was the chauffeur makes his appearance, and with a respectful bow announces that the car is ready. All of the office force pile into Congressman DePrist's car. You know he is very democratic. He couldn't be a snob if he wanted to. The machine rolls on. A woman from Calgary and finds its way to 419 U street northwest, where Mr DePrist is greeted by a most devoted and considerate wife. Meetings at Night But even this does not end the busy hours of the congressman, who hurries through dinner; to attend committee meetings on civic welfare, address organizations, confer with fellow politicians and delegates, or extend the hospitality of his house to the hospitaries. He seldom has time or desire to take part in events of a purely social nature.

Closer co-operation between farmers and the State and Federal Farm Agents THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER Manhood is the thing after all. Whenever the Negro makes up his mind that he is going to stand for manhood, cost what it may, from that man's star, his star will begin to ascend. No people or nation ever made advanced steps without paying the cost. Neither has any nation nor people ever given a weaker group what belonged to them until compelled to do so. The Negro must look to himself. J. M. Wiley Why African?

Toast and Tea "That species of Dixie insanity which views with compacency the entertainment of diplomats from every foreign nation under the sun at the White House but becomes violent when Negroes eat a piece of lace there. It is with us again since Mrs. Lou Hoyer have invited Mrs. Owen to visit last week. Our far astar these minds are, may be seen from one article by J. F. Essary, Washington correspondent for the Baltimore Sun. Essary was forced to refer to Mrs. DePriest as "Negress," "wife of the Negro Congressman," "wife of the Negro," and even "the Negro woman," in his eagerness to avoid reference to Mrs. DePriest is the wife of a congressman. Mrs. Hoover is entertaining wives of all congressmen. The First Lady invited. The initiative was hers. Mrs. DePriest accepted. No one can raise a single alldebtion to the procedure in which, can point to Mrs. DePriest's Negro blood of which she is proud. Yet she is as white inside and outside the wives of many congressmen, is better educated and far more cultured. She didn't pat Mrs. Hoover on the back, laugh so loud that the President heard it upstairs, fold her napkin after using it, and put it in Jazus jaws have been committed in the Green Room by yokels who preate about social equality. Except for the fact that she is the President's wife, we doubt whether Mrs. Hoover would have any congressman's wife to tea. But for the fact that she's a congressman's wife, we doubt whether Mrs. Priest would accept an invitation to have tea with Mrs. Hoover. She's had tea before with white friends and probably had a better time. Insanity on the Negro question goes to great lengths. In this case it stalks the point of saying "I do not care to invite colored people to tea. It presumes to say: 'The president (the United States should not do so, either.'" Forty Years From one colored school. 12 colored teachers, and 611 colored pupils in 1889. Baltimore's colored school system has grown to 35 colored schools, one director, 17 supervisors, 33 principal officers, and 2024 pupils. This forty-year progress cannot be expressed alone in figures, there has been growth in kind and quality of teaching, administration, testing and learning. There have come also under Mayors Broening and Jackson and under and under David E. Weglein, an adequate system of promotion, equalization and increase of salaries and a new spirit of professionalism among teachers. Add this to the biggest school building program the city has ever known, before Baltimore can accommodate its school advancement in forty years. Baltimore's school system was never in better shape than it is today. It merits the appreciation and cooperation of thinking citizens. It warrants the hope that school administration will not next time promote the director, Mr. France M. Wood, to the assist the superintendent. Opening Up Significance attaches itself to the decision of Judge Lawrence Groner in the United States District Court, at Richmond, Virginia, recently. Judge Groner held that Nemo Democrats have the power to be Democratic primaries of Virginia, and that the greatest primary laws and rules restricting voting in Democratic primaries to whites only are unconstitutional. Normally, Virginia Democrats outnumber Republicans two to one. The general election, therefore, is always a matter of form. Except in a case where Democratic primaries agree in the position but in the primaries, where balloting is close, they are barred by the rule which permits only whites to vote. Judge Groner's decision, based on a similar decision of a U. S. court in Texas, opens up the primaries for the Negro. Judge Groner is striking for two reasons. First, colored folk in large numbers have not yet discovered how to disregard party labels and wield an effective ballot for men instead of parties. Then, too, Virginia Democrats expect to appeal the case to the U. S. Supreme Court, and not resort to a convention method of nominating. For fifty years, Virginia, with other Southern states as well, has utilized varied illegal devices to bar Negroes from the polls. There is no evidence that these malpractices will cease. The real significance in the whole situation is the Negro's uphill struggle for the ballot and his continued willingness to battle disfranchisement in the courts. Freeing the Slayers Kathryn Cardii, 15, white and married, killed Charles E. Smith by shooting him in the back when he refused to continue dancing the Charleston for her entertainment. The dead man's brother told the AFRO that the girl had also threatened to shoot him. The two judges at Towson convinced Kathryn not guilty of murder last week, convinced that it was simply a case of children playing with a pistol Grace Couthron, white, and her husband, serving life terms in the penitentiary for wanton killing of a colored taxi driver, are seeking a paradigm from the state commissioner. There is no evidence in either case of a miscarriage of justice, but sentiment does seem averse to inflicting the severest penalty upon slayers who are females and white. No Civil War Some four thousand senile veterans of the Confederate Army met in Charlotte, N.C. re- counselors. Literatures of their chief speakers indicate that they have entered their second childhood. Here are some of them: "We thank God that at Appomattox we were with General Lee and not with General Grant." "Men of grey, women of the sixties, you gave the South a sigh of sentiment, you gave the South a sigh of sentiment." a "Jefferson Davis loved the Union with all the devotion of his heart . . . ." "Slavery was not the cause of the war . . ." "Our victory was essentially a victory of the spirit . . ." the APEO-AMERICAN is unable to bear Jeff Davis loved the Union "with all his heart," yet led the forces of the rebellion. As to the cause of the war, memory often plays false, but the record remains. The record shows that the rebel states were also the slave holding states. These states saw themselves outside the majority northern and eastern progress and a president, Abraham Lincoln, elected who declared this government cannot exist half slave and half free. The Confederate constitution as adopted by the rebel states recognized slavery and declared it should be "protected by Confederate" so declared slaveholders had the right to carry slaves them in travelling from one state to another. The war was fought to determine whether a state may secede from the union and whether slavery was to remain a legalized institution. The rebels lost on both counts. They were whipped back into the Union and slavery was abolished before peace was de- Under such circumstances, all practical objects having been lost, rebels can claim no victory except one of them, thanking God for service with Lee is in the grasp of a whistle while passing through a graveyard in order to keep up courage. The lost cause was not only lost but misguided and God-forsaken. It admits of no sentimental gloss. Once proper to claim they won the war, once next expect to hear that no civil war has been fought at all. Inside Politics Since taking his seat in the Congress of the United States, April 15, Mr. Oscar DePriest, (Republican, Illinois) has delivered addresses in cities as widely separated as Boston, Chicago, Memphis and Atlanta. In all, he has made perhaps a dozen public appearances, some of them entailing absence from Washington. Friends of the congressman have hoped that the public demands for his presence throughout the land would not interfere with his study of pending legislation and suggestion of beneficial amendments where possible. It has remained, however, for Mr. DePriest's Chicago political rival, Mr. Edward Wright, to call public attention to the absence of Mr. DePriest when Thikham amendment, aimed at the enfranchisement, came to a vote. Mr. Wright's view was that his political opponent should have been in his seat and at the proper time lifted his voice and cast his vote against a voteless South. Mr. DePriest's job is a difficult one. Being the only Negro congressman, all sections of the country demand the right to vote on his own. There are other representatives in Congress. Each represents about 211,000 constituents. Mr. DePriest is expected to speak for ten million Negroes. Perhaps Mr. DePriest makes a mistake by conducting his extra-congressional duties on a team. After that, he alone is to decide how he best can serve the rest of the group. The Wright criticism, in this light, becomes manifest as the opening gun of DePriest's opponents in Chicago to put up a rival nominee in 1930.

To the Editor: Because of the presence of Mrs. DePriest at the White House, in response to an invitation from the First Lady of the country, some of papers have been filled with a great deal of rot about "social equality." I have before me a clipping from the New York Tribune, of June, 1903, in which a southern white man takes Simmons of North Carolina, asks an agent a speech of his in New York, before the Sons of North Carolina. A paragraph of this article reads: "The truth is that the Negroes in the south have deported themselves 0.1 this point much better than the whites. While the Negroes in the south say nothing and do nothing, to show a desire for 'social equality', the leaders of the whites have blustered and vituperated on the subject for forty years. Did you ever hear a Democraticocrat critic, the District of War but 'New Equality', 'Free Silver', and 'Free Trade'? The Negroes have simply listened and said little, and then gone quietly their way to vote the Republican ticket, thereby demonstrating their intolerance to the war. This fact is the primary source of the trouble. And then this correspondent mentions the fact that on the very same day Senator Simmons was making his speech in New York, a North Carolina Negro bishop-Bishop Clinton—in addressing the conference over which he was presiding, among others. "If the white man refuses to mingle with the Negro as a social equal, he exercises a right to which no many Negro will object. The Negro has no desire for social equality. In the past, he has been a white public servant has taken an oath recognizing the civil and political equality of all men who make up the one American democracy, and then, immediately set himself to practice the opposite of the oath just taken. There is such a white civil equality, but 'Social Equality' does not exist." GEORGE F. BRAGG, Jr. Baltimore, Md.

(Extracts) The Negro becomes critical of himself, trusts his preachers less, takes less to white paternalism, studies more the history of the race, and is less distrustful of the whiter; so says Eugene Gordon of his people, a matter of Florida, a graduate of Howard University, at present on the shaf of the Boston Post. Whereas the American Negro used to whimper when hurt, he now sets his jaws. In those circumstances in which he once was pathetically childish he now is sophisticated and cynical. He used to smart under the mildest criticism, but now he critically dissects himself. In short, the American Negro has come of age. Whereas the American Negro used to whipmur when hurt, he now sets his jaws. In those circumstances in which he once was pathetically childish he now is sophisticated and cynical. He used to smart under the mildest criticism, but now he critically dissects himself. In short, the American Negro has come of age. There are involved at least six factors that tend to prove the truth of my assertion. The first is that the American Negro has become critical of himself and thereby tolerant of outside criticism. Second, he is less credulous of and also somewhat cynical toward what his preachers tell him about heaven and hell. Third, he was miserful inhibitions than formerly. Fourth, he was paternalistic whites and to show evidence of desiring to propel his own craft. Fifth, he has begun a serious but enthusiastic study of Negro history. And, sixth, he is less distrustful of and bears prejudice toward whites than was once of The Negro's unbiased and unfettering criticism of himself had its genesis in Jean Toomer. When this brilliant young Negro wrote "Cane," he colored folk. So impersonally objective yet so intimately understanding was it that scores of readers at first suspected its author of being a southern cracker. Never before had any American Negro dared tell so much about his intelligence and colorful instinct. Here was a Negro writer exposing his race's most shameful weaknesses to the supercilious stare of the whites. The great mass of colored folk could not appreciate Toomer. The great mass still can not appreciate him. As a matter of fact, the great mass of colored folk can not now be criticized, despite the continuous stream of criticism that is released upon them by their more intelligent peers. Toomer is not to the masses I refer in the discussion of this subject. It is, indeed, to the increasing number of educated colored folk, especially the intellectuals. The masses had been taught for years that pride of race consisted primarily in colorful silence regarding their human weaknesses. The great mass of colored folk could not appreciate Toomer. The great mass still can not appreciate Toomer. The great mass still can not appreciate colored folk can not now bear to be criticized, despite the continuous stream of criticism that is released upon them by their more intelligent leaders. Perhaps I should add here that Toomer was a great educator of this subject. Is it indeed, to the increasing number of educated colored folk, especially the intellectuals, the masses had been taught for years that pride of race consisted primarily in maintaining silence regarding their human nature. For some unexplainable reason, they looked upon human frailty as Negro frailty, and the black man who exposed these frailties was considered a traitor. Thus, they came to suffer with nausea-nastiness and were perpetually miserable. Rudolph Fisher followed Toomer. Among other philosophers, he defended the Harlem "rent party." I have seen many a nice Boston colored girl blush would learn the dreadful truth that some colored folk gave "rent parties." One in particular, I recall, lost her appetite when, reading "The Promised Land" while she ate, she came across the detailed description of such a party. At the same time other young Negro "high yeller," "high brown," "chocolate brown" and "stovepipe black." Later writers, among them Wallace Thurman and Langston Hughes, turned other tricks out of the black bag. Thurman discussed the Harlem's home life: his social life and his church, the "nice" people of Washington because they professed disgust of Toomer. In other places Hughes told of the American Negro's preferences in food, music, and entertainment, and dilated in his "blues" upon the dark brother's merits as Haram was taken up, turned inside out, and shaken vigorously. The denizens thereof were studied like strange microscopic cultures. Nothing was omitted in the reports resulting from this study. Thus, a mysterious unknown black group came to be best-known of all the folk groups. Haram, after all, was an excellent specimen. The Press The colored writers already referred to, with some not yet mentioned, caused the change. It was not long, following the appearance of these writers, until editors in the Negro press catched on the idea. The editors were stood up in the glare of the press spotlight and scrutinized until they squirmed. Christianity Christianity But the Negro's self-criticism has not ended with his person. It has included Christianism. Negroes have been Christian. It is only recently that the American Negro church and its minister have been held less than sacrancet. Hitherto both have been hedged about by a picket fence of taboos. The colored minister, like a few colored editors, has exercised unlimited freedom in the press. His self has been involuntary. Well, that day is passed. There is now seldom a gathering of intelligent colored folk in which soon or later there is not wholesome and exhaustive discussion of religion, church and ministry. The newspapers themselves are often scornful in their attention toward brothers of the cloth and are generous with space in publishing their falls from grace. They criticize the parson's illiteracy, his ignorance of human impulses, his inefficiency as a leader, his inaptitude as a businessman, and his monkeyshines in the pulpul, and their preachers who deserve credit, are not overlooked. But the Negro's self-criticism has not ended with his person. It has included Christianity, the Negro church and the Negro preacher. It is only recently that the American Negro church and its preacher, Hitherto both have been hedged by a picket fence of taboos. The colored minister, like a few colored editors, has exercised unlimited license to attack whom he would, but he himself has been involuntary. Well, that day is passed. He is generous in his colorful fole in which soon or later there is not wholesome and exhaustive discussion of religion, church and ministry. The newspapers themselves are often scornful in their attitude toward brothers of the cloth who are generous in their faiths. They criticize the parson's illiteracy, his ignorance of human impulses, his inefficiency as a leader, his ineptitude as a businessman, and his monkeyshines in the pulpul. On the other hand, those preachers who deserve criticism about their lack of usefulness. But if the newspapers are generous with criticism, the youth of the race are prodigal. Especially is this true of college youth, who go beyond questioning the church and its ministry. They let it be known that they accept nothing without permission, and that a useful servant. They must meet their standard, which is to say the standard of modern civilization. Inter-Race Color Line The most conspicuous movement is the middle-class Negro's disposition to lay aside color prejudices within the race. Criticism of this inhibition by his own writers has helped the black community to resist the collapse has been brought about by the colored Americans themselves. There are black men and women in the group who are a living retufation of the fiction that only mixed bloods are allowed, although this prejudice is not totally dissipated; there are signs of its approaching dissipation. The most conspicuous movement is the middle-class Negro's disposition to lay aside color prejudices within the race. Criticism of this inimicality has been made by a man to see the folly of it. Thus, its almost total collapse has been brought about by the colored Americans themselves. There are black men and women in the group who are a living retaliation for the Negro's unworthy, and although this prejudice is not totally dissipated, there are signs of its approaching dissipation. What is perhaps the most significant of these indications of adulthood is the Negro's increase in the number of black men. Dr. G. Woodson, director of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, of Washington, D.C., Negro newspapers, magazines, fraternal organizations hold "Negro History Week." During this period the newspapers and magazines publish little-known facts about great men of the race, and organizations hold essay contests and public symposiums, inviting noted Negroes to address them. The Negro newspapers publish the files of Negro newspapers and magazines. In these publications is set down the very essence of the Negro's pride in himself. It is unmistakably evidence of the racial consciousness of the fact that white patrons of college and public libraries read his history strengthens the black man's self-esteem. Finally—incontrovertible evidence of approaching maturity—the colored American is casting doubt on the Negro's worth. Whito faces, most colored folk have long believed, are masks behind which lukruely hatred, and deceit. They forget that white men freed them, helped them to educate themselves, and helped them to live. Even today give lavishly of their wealth to Negro reeds. Of course this does not include all whites, but it includes a sufficiently large number to show men like Dabney and Schuyler that indiscriminate hurling of bricks into the ranks of the certain eventually to strike and injure friends. White faces, most colored folk have long believed, are masks behind which lukely cruel hatred, and deaft. They forget that white men have long been taught to protect their political rights, and even today give lavishly of their wealth to Negro reeds. Of course this does not include all whites, but it includes a sufficiently large number to low man like us. Such a society includes criminate hurling of bricks into the ranks of the whites is certain eventually to strike and injure friends. So, the American Negro has just about grown up. Naturally, he will continue to develop for some time, for he has not yet reached full growth. We are proud, however, to present him with a vigorous, stalwart, broad-shouldered, carefree and somewhat arrogant youth, yet one who soberly realizes the significance of a man's responsibilities. Yes, the American Negro has just about grown up. Naturally, he will continue to develop for some time, for he has not yet reached full growth. We are proud, however, to present him in all the promise of his fresh young manhood; he will always grow up, and nowhere will pregnant youth, yet one- who soberly realizes the significance of a man's responsibilities. Mr. DePriest is widely proclaimed through the Negro race as the reincarnation of their political hopes. It does not seem likely that any other colored man will occupy any like exalted place during the Hoover quadrennium. Oscar DePriest 'Nominated as Race Spokesman. BY KELLY MILLER I have always maintained that the race needs an acknowledged spokesman for national political purposes. President Roosevelt raised the issue through which he neglected a three-decade through which political and general matters where the Federal government touched the Negro. The cause of the race received fuller recognition and consideration under the Roosevelt-Washington regime than it had been accorded before. Indeed, since the passing of that regime the political fortune of the Negro has been retrograding until now he has been around the point of怀疑, nessimism. Possessed Confidence President Roosevelt was eminently a practical man. He found that Booker T. Washington possessed the confidence of the people, North and South, white and black, and utilized him as an available instrument to facilitate the functioning of the government. The point of the pointpoint was made, no action was taken, without conference and consultation with Dr. Washington. In these later years, there seems to be no avowed Negro policy. There is no leadership. The cause has been lost, amidst the clash of discord voices. Each state with an influential Negro leader has a responsibility of something, register of something else, or minister to somewhere, with the result that all have lost out in the general scrimmage. Washington all of these rival and reactive claims and claimants were carefully weighed and sifted with due regard to the most advantageous bearer, the most advantageous candidate selected, presented, and appointed. We should judge the regime by the results. The man should be widely and favorable known for his devotion to the welfare of the race, should have back of him a basis or conspicuous achievement, should have a chance to expand and if possible, a definite political constituency. He should not, derive his influence and power wholly from his position, but should bring such influence and Only Foothold Oscar DePriest represents the only foothold which the Negro now has in the Federal government. Since he was a member of Perry Howard denounced, no Negro, save DePriest, has any voice in his own right anywhere in the equation of Federal politics. The main fight of Bob Church to have the Negro's rights should be recognized and encouraged. Most Available. Dr. John R. Hawkins, chairman of the colored campaign committee, has claims worthy of consideration. if not of acceptance. He was head of the campaign committee, which in turn was a creature of the national committee. He was forced to work through a white *efreee* and was thus pushed from primary authority and now into political baskill, like a prince without a principality. Dr. R. Moten inherits much of the political mantle of his august predecessor, and will have more to do with the political President, or whichever party is in power. Dr. Emmett J. Scott with his keen political sacity, and some appraisal of political values, can be too infirm, and William H. Lewis too busy practicing law. By all odds, Mr. DePriest is the most available of the whole lot for race spokesman. Represents 10,000,000 The McDREP priest will inside the office of the president, support the support of his constituents. He has access and approach to the legislative and administrative powers that he has with wung-down-head and hat in hand, but merely to announce his presence as a member of Congress. He is a large aline District, but is representative-aline of ten million Negro constituents. He is by all odds the most powerful member of Congress. He is acknowledged and accepted as such. He is heard and heeded as spokesman of his race. He is the only voice which can declare claims of the race in high station. Mr. DePriest is widely proclaimed through the Negro race as the reincarnation of their political hopes. He is in universal demand on the platform. The people hear him, not only because he has filled the full measure of their hopes and expectation. His courage, resourcefulness and tact surpass our anticiliation. He has not evinced朴朴 himself, selflessness, Philadelphianism and Baltimore that they should assert their political potentiality and send colored colleagues to keep him company in Congress. He will undoubtedly be re-elected, and the four-year term. It does not now seem likely that any other colored man will occupy any like exalted place during the Hoover quadrennium. Concerted Program. It is but the part of good sense, then, that the political celebrities and the public as well as others of eminence, should pool issues under the leadership of Oscar DePriest. As matters now stand, it does not look as if the political portfolios of the president are well suited. A dozen rival leaders neutralize each other. concerted and co-ordinated program shall involve the advice and consultation of all of the leaders concerned, will certainly have enhanced hope. Success The perseverance of the senator he be "A," "B," or "C," makes little difference to the race, if he be honest, courageous and race-devoted. The president possesses in an eminent degree. Now my task is done. I have given the suggestion; others must exert their best effort. The physician. However, I will suggest a nation-wide banquet as a suitable inauguration of this idea. Africans Say: "Africans have much in common with us as wil and wisdom expressed in their language, and they are to get away from the notion that they are in an inferior and barbaric state. In more than one sense, we Americans will be illused and more barbaric than they are." NAACP Secretaries Find South Unsafe for Democracy Pickens and Bagnall Tell of Robberies on Railroads and Terrorization of Workers. NEW YORK—Colored people are systematically robbed by the refusal of railroads in the South to provide equal accommodation for colored passengers as required by law, according to William Pickens, Field Secretary of the N.A.A.C.P., who has just returned from a speaking tour in which he visited Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma and other southern States. If You Ask Me By RALPH MATTHEWS A subscriber from Ebensburgh, Pa., writes asking the AFRO to help him. "In Arkansas, Texas and Oklahoma, there are no Pullman accommodations to be had for Negros" said Mr. Pickens. "When I travelled from Muskogee in Oklahoma to St. Louis I had to sit up until 3 a. m., the time we reached the Missouri line before I could get into my berth. Another colored man of prominence that I know of, had to buy two railroad tickets and a stateroom in order to get Pullman accommodations from Dallas, Texas, north. Plain Robbery "This is of course unlawful and, in fact, plain robbery." "However, my recent trip in the South convinces me that there is more respect for Negroes, than there ever before. They are not so convinced that the Negro is incapable, altho the whites seem just as determined to hold the Negro in a position of colored business men, owners of property and having extensive business interests, are no longer afraid to speak out and endorse the A.C.P. Workers Terrorized. "Still, distressing cases came to my attention. For example, in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, the factory factory was badly beaten by his white fellow employees, because he declined to dread them as, 'Sir, Generales, Texas, a white man who through his own carelessness had colluded with 'the automobile driven by a colored man, was about to shoot the Negro driver over a fence, which later listed repaired at a cost of one dollar. The shooting was prevented only by the calmness of another Negro light enough in color to pass a white man, who said he was accidental and blamed it on the white man." Bagnall Tasks Returned to New York from a similar speaking tour and the organization of Branches in southern states. Robert W. Bagnall, Director of Branches of Branches, a nonprofit organization with a difference in temper and atmosphere he found existing between the upper and the lower South. "In the upper South," said Mr. Bagnall, "colored people talk with African rights and struggles." He matter of course, without fear. That is true in North Carolina in Tennessee and in upper Georgia in most towns and cities. But in the lower South, Negroes in cases are the ones that even looks like an assertion of their rights. Alabama Worst Abbott and Mississippi are still the most timorous states. Birmingham remains the worst part of Alabama despite the 100,000 Negro residents of the city. The west is still standing in with the whites and are averse to anything that might be intermixed as a demand for their rights." Week's Poem HOW FAR IS IT CALLED TO THE GRAVE?

Are going with step so fleet. And they are almost there. And soon our lives must end. But there is one who arose from the grave. Who ascended triumphant on high. With our trust in Him, we'll know what to do. Though low in the grave we lie. And the longest life is short at last. How far is it called to the grave? It is only a life, dear friend. And we're almost there. DoYouKnow Did the pre-Columbian Indians raise our cane harns? Beans, squashes, pumpkins, melons, sweet potatoes, tobacco, gourds and sunflowers were cultivated by the North American Indians before the coming of the white man. The sunflower was cultivated for the seeds, which were eaten after being roasted. The seeds were tween two stones. Squashes were dried in the sun and eaten during the winter and spring.

If You Ask Me BY RALPH MATTHEWS A subscriber from Ebsworth, Pa. writes asking the AFRO to help his locate a good faithful wife. We have scoured the town, but so far none of the good faithful wives are willing to leave their husbands. The gentleman should have little trouble finding a bride, however, because all one needs to get married with nowadays is a girl, a ring and a preacher and the ring and the preacher are the hardest to-get. Every young girl wants a man in her life sooner or later. During courtship he comes earlier; after marriage he gets home later and by the time the honeymoon is over, she doesn't see him at all. Of course, it is better to have loved and lost than never to have sent your laundry out in the same bag with some body else's. Marriage can keep a strange man's slippers under her bed and still turn up her nose at other women. The best matches develop from love at first sight and sometimes it doesn't pay to take a second look. Love is blind, but marriage always restores one's sight. In former days man used to marry to get a good cook, but now it costs so much to keep a wife that they cannot afford to buy anything to eat after they get her. Young people believe that two can live as cheaply as one and they start out to see which one is the cheapest. They vow to stand by each other throughout life and then set out to starve each other to death. The first one up in the morning generally gets the best breakfast and one mean husband used to stuff cotton in his wife's ears after she fell asleep, the couldn't hear the alarm clock. The way to a man's heart is thru his stomach, but some wives don't care whether they get there or not. In traveling towards affection via the palate route, the cook book is the road map. Another wife had to put a burglar alarm on the ice box and keep the bread and butter in a vault. Every time the house was robbed she detected grease spots on her husband's vest. Some folks have scrambled eggs for breakfast every morning. The eggs get scrambled in the souffle. The bread gets burnt because they can't watch the toast for watching each other. The one who shift; his eyes loses a biscuit. One husband solved the breakfast problem. He could keep two bites ahead of his wife by souping grantees' eyes, but he bought a windshield and gained five laps on the coffee. Marriage may be all right, but one advantage in eating in a restaurant is that the waitress doesn't serve your breakfast in a kimono and get sore because you don't kiss her when you go out. Matters not how much you toss it out around, a menu never talks back. As long as you pay off at the cash register the proprietor doesn't bawl you out for staying out late or ask you "Who was that woman I saw you with last night?" Restaurants are Okay, but they will never take the place of a wife until they send waiters around to make men get up out of bed in the morning and make them carry along an umbrella and rubbers when it looks like rain. But that is why restaurants are so successful. English Word Often Misused Do not say "there is no need of me doing the work." Say "of my." Governance, the n. 2, the ermine. Wo! Often misspelled.

LOVE NOT THE WORLD—Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him—John Greens and Corn Bread. A very conscientious school teacher writes to suggest that our race-papers print more "inspiring news" for young kids. "Not only" he says "it's certain kinds of news hurtful to young minds—it is like giving corn beef and cabbage to babies. As children grow it is as necessary to select the material which goes into their minds as it is to select their food." But the newspaper, designed to serve the people of all ages, would look as silly filled with mental material designed only for immature minds as it would be incomplete in something to inspire young minds. Parents should remember that there are many things even in the Bible which are not suited for young minds, and in their daily reading they should select and dish it out to them with the same care that they plan their food. Changing Ideas on Social Equality. With the exception of a few explosive remarks by some Southern politicians intended as pup for the president, Mrs. Oscar DeFries to attend a tea given by the First Lady of the Land for a group of congressmen wives, caused nothing more than a rant against the number of America's 112,000,000 people. Even race women will dismiss the matter with a casual remark and there for occasion for recounts of thanks or special jollification meetings. The fact is, those who recall the reaction of the Roosevelt-Washington lunchmen in some of the South hundreds of men, women, and children were persecuted to actual starvation to pay for that one meal—will be imitating the American Commonwealth has progressed towards real democracy since that time. Even in the Southland there have markedly changed ideas of what is popularly termed social equality. For one thing, the old ballyhoo of the red shirt politician of the Blease type fails to seriously impress the younger generation. Like the white women of the South, they do not consider themselves such *cakelings* that they cannot come into contact with colored men and women on the day affairs of this country without danger of being induced to sign a marriage contract. And, too, the younger generation of whites are coming to philosopher's circles, the many and womanly contact, where racial relations touch, and the kind of contact reflected in the color of the Negro faces they meet hostile for whom their forebears cannot escape responsibility. For instance, even here in this American Free State, young men and women, with consciences still reacting to the fear they are, wondering why a 'free, white and twenty-one' American can be urged to protect his right to take a drink, but must bow to the customs of an ancient nation, who wants to transact the most simple bit of business with a colored man or woman. The most significant thing about the whole question is that human relations in work, and in civic and national relations, can be maintained without taking away from any individual the God-given right to marry whom he please. Gratefully, the noodies of certain American people, it will: pave the way to blot out injustice in an economic world which keeps men and women from economic advantage, jobs and from participating in government affairs which belong to them in any democracy. Making Boy Scouts Desecrate an Oath. Eight troops of the Philadelphia Boy Scouts have resigned and turned in their charters to the city council of the Boy Scouts to regroup and segregate them in a manner which they regard as a desecration and violation of the oath taken when joining the organization. While it is unfortunate that the scout been been driven to take such a step, it is the result of the best thing they learned in scouting—respect to the utmost for the principle of an oath incident in the incident most serious problem which the Boy Scout movement is facing in America. Here is an organization based on the highest and most likely value of the Boy Scout movement, in the Philadelphia case, could not stand the test of the very first principle and oath to which boys are made to swear the first moment they become members of the boys movement because the boys themselves, white or colored, would not readily meet this test, but because grown-up men leading them had lost the moral courage and stamina to face their own The real evil does not come in what it denied colored boys but what it teaches white boys. Oath violation is a dangerous thing to sow in the minds of boys. It causes girls to be unfair to race youth and to look upon them as different kinds of American citizens, without starting tendencies which will make them unfair to all mankind when they are taught to race youth. The best thing to do to both racial groups of boys in America is to teach them that they can play, work and fight together without depriving each other of the rights of American citizenship. The worst thing which could happen would be to produce a cowardly bugaboo-dodging boy, who cannot stand alone colored men and fight for this country if the need ever arises. What Representation Can Do For Us. What the presence of just one member of the race in any legislature was demonstrated Friday, when Congressman Oscar DePascal halted a small apportionment item which secrely discriminated against him to let that august body know that they may look to hear from him on matters of the law. To a few ribal legislators this won't mean much, but the majority of congressmen have conscience and will think of Oscar priest when they begin to prepare measures. This is bound to have a good effect, and must pass through the legislative mill during the next four years. Howard Student Falls 5 Stories to Instant Death HOWARD STUDENT FALLS FIVE STORIES HOWARD STUDENT FALLS FIVE STORIES Wilbur C. Lonesome "Proves" to Wife He Could Dangle from Window.

SCOUT LAW VIOLATED PHILADELPHIA, PA.—Refusing to desecrate their oath by submitting to a ruling establishing a permanent allegiance of the Philadelphia Council, eight troops composed of race boys, handed in their charrers here last Wednesday. The resignation of the soldiers who had hung fire since June of last year, at which time colored boys were denied camping privileges at all camps, except Camp Biddle during the summer sea- Made Protest At that time the representatives of the troops made a vigorous protest and decided to hold a white council, however, promised arbitration, and the boys decided to remain loyal until a final ruling was made. December 36, the Council sent a letter stating that "in the interest of scouting as a whole, it could not see its way clearly regarding the policy of our separation." It was following this that the committee, scout masters and representative of the boys decided to hold a body and return their charters. The first protest against the segregation in the form of a petition sent the Council was followed: "Delhi府 Council Boy Scouts of America: GREETING: We have been informed by letter that in the future full camp privileges will be denied colored Boy Scouts and that we will be held Biddle during the camp season. This ruling, it is said, having been made, will be followed by organizations in the shta viz: Where there is a possibility of bodily contact, the mingling of the two races must "Whereas, as verification of this information several scout members of Troop No. 116 of the U.S. Army in admission to the camp at Ticeasure Island, we believe this type of aggregation to be an explanation of the part of the matters of the rule over those whom the rule affects, and therefore in no way is consistent with the Scout Oath and Law. He is therefore Resolved. That we, the undersigned representatives of the U.S. Army of the Philadelphia Council, present this stigma and vigorously protest against this discriminating rule, in possibly do no good and is capable of much harm. We therefore ask, in deference to our rights as a member of the U.S. Army, that unless this is done we do not feel that our racial and self respect will permit us to continue to ally ourselves with an organization of this conception of good manhood."

ENT THIS AD TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ROSENTHAL'S FREE OFFER ON SATURDAY RIOTS GREET "JO" BAKER IN BUENOS AIRES President of Argentine Republic Takes Hand in Theatricals. NUDITY BARRED BUENOS AIRES.—Mlle. Josephine Baker, erstwhile countess and wriggle dancer of Harlem and Paris, struck another snag in her colorful career when a near-riot followed her appearance here last week. Confusion such as that which greeted her in several European Countries broke out here and fights developed in all sections of the auditorium. Those were successful in restoring order only after numerous arrests had been made. The cause of the disturbance was unknown to authorities, but American releases, attribute it to a feeling of hostility toward the famous brown shimmy dancer because reported marriage to an Italian Count. President Takes Hand The girl from Harlem, whose unadorned figure has caused more trouble in Europe than boundary dispute in the last few years ran true to form upon her arrival in Argentina when President Irigoyen, horrified by the reports of her nudity which had drifted into the South American Republic from Europe, capitulated to the person she danced to wear more clothes while appearing in the country. He stretched his vigilance in other directions and included the performance of "Aida," ordering the municipal inspectors to see that the ballet dancers in the Colon Opera House A.

She made her greatest sensation in Paris, becoming a night club hostess a.d. the toast of Gay Parree slipping into fame on a banana peel when she set Paris wild with her famous costume consisting only of a bunch of bananas. She duped the press of the world through her announced marriage to an Italian count, who turned out to be her manager, whom she had carried with her from New York. It is rumored that she anticipates an early return to the states a move which she has avoided due to a doubtful reception here. HOME-COMING DANCE of Ike Dixon's Aces Just Back From A Western Tour Monday, JUNE 24th at Wonderland Park 35c before 9 50c After 9 Young Actors Give Credit The audience had a wonderful time at the presentation of "Dan Cupid, Head Coach" or play presented by the graduating class of Douglass High School in the school auditorium. Friday night. A happy lot of this audience—ons that they have done—the heart of any thespian good—a jovial, carefree bunch who came to be entertained. They wanted to laugh and they did at the slightest provocation, sometimes out of place, sometimes often loud, sometimes and laughed by the audience, that. The play was a comedy, which probably accounts for the laughing. The acting was high school acting. There was a plot in the play. It was all about some papers being found in the pocket of the student causing him to be suspended from school and membership zacae of the season. And you know what an important thing these football games are, especially in Killkair or some such Academy, but worst of all, his sweetheart, (the president's daughter, by the way) believed him guilty, gave him the air. Can you imagine anything more amusing to dashing your high school player? Troubles come, singly. Of course, the 'hero wasn't gully at all. Everybody knew he was innocent ten minutes after the curtain went up; that is everybody but the members of the cast. They were just as surprised as could be hours later (counting permissions) he was clearable (dreadful charge and attention) to play in the game, the honor and glory of old Killkair or some such equally venerable institution. Quite thrilling, Oh very, very thrilling. The play ended in tragedy, however, when the boy and girl announced they were in gagged be married which, of course, prevented them from living happily even Excellent Cast The outstanding performances were given by William Lottler, in the heroic role: Miss Ruth Dean as the sweetheart; Miss Finette Jefferson, as the vivacious little sister who engineered the lovemaking; Francis Noel, who garnered a number of laughs as the comic; and a host of others including Addison Joyce, Sara Coles, Dorothy Clark, Mabel Harris, Reginald Watts, Macco Howard Norman Chapman, Augustus Knox, John Wood, Ira Mosely, Donald Murray, Llewellyn Husketh, William Proctor, Virginia Pratt, Garnett Leiz, Raymond Chambers, Lewis Banks, Joseph Bush, Robert Watts. Florentine Troupe Heard NEW YORK—Beatrice Wade and her Florentine Trope made their second, annual appearance at the 137th Street Branch of the Negro Spirituals, Jubilees and recitation dons in costume were enjoyed by an audience which was remarkable considering the temperature Wednesday recorded. The features of the evening were Gifford Woldon, Ivory Scott, Moses Felix, Golett Barber, and Luther Jones who presided over the piano. Tried To Kill Buddie; Held Walter Farrell, 1639 W.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, June 22, 1929 Chords And Dis-chords By W. LLEWELLYN WILSON Musical pessimists who might review the musical events of Baltimore's music season just closing, could with some d'tree of justification, claim that our musical fare has been very meager. It is true that we have had but one major musicale of outstanding importance, namely the single appearance of Marion Anderson. But if one looks beneath the surface of what: appears to be musicale on the part of the teacher, it seems unbased mind; it is very evident that local music lovers are becoming serious students of the higher things in the realm of music. The wide-spread use of the radio, the life-like reproductions made possible with the improved types of phonographs, the thorough teaching of the principles of music instruction now in our public schools, closes no-ordination of the work and aims of the private teachers with the endevors and objectives of the public school instructors: are among the many potent factors which are tending to make us here in Baltimore more intelligent, musically, which of course, makes our music lover more optimistic at the same time that more discriminatory to what is served to us musically. This state of affairs does not make us a group of musical "high brows," but it does make it impossible for the musical奸犯 of a few years back to obtain the favor of the concert-going public: Hundreds of our musically inclined are-going in for courses of instructions. Our best vocal teachers have waiting for students are go-ing for courses in harmony and counterpoint. A few years ago the writer could not get students to attempt counterpoint although instruction was offered free. Many of our choral units on seeing the musical light have forsaken the organizations which were often led by musical charlatans who were seeking the musical limelight, instead of sitting half the night attending poorly conducted "echoing" musical persons whose vocal roles stay at home and vocalize or they often listen in to the world's greatest artists over the radio. What our group apparently lacks in musical activity here in Baltimore is more than balanced by the musical moments of its serious students of music. Leadenhall Organ The pastor and congregation of the Leadenhall Street Baptist Church are to be highly commended for their tangible and lasting contribution to the development of music here in Baltimore through the installation of an excellent organ of the very latest type. The organ was designed and built by the Kiljen Organ Company, one of the finest organ building companies in the world, and an excellent job have they given the church in South Baltimore. His best work is manliness, has a variety of well voiced and beautifully balanced stops and an action that is facile to such a degree that it responds to the very lightest touch. Locally, we have not many organs on which the organ symphonies of Widor may be played with any degree of satisfaction of satisfaction. We are installed by the Rev. James and his flock responds to all requirements. Beth pastor and people are to be congratulated and personally I look forward to the installment of more Kiljen organs. They are more than a box of tin whistles. The Varsity Four. A youthful quartette, calling themselves "The Varsity Four," are doing quite a bit of good harmonizing these days. The boys sing without any of the cheap mannerisms which so often characterize the singing of our male groups. What is more, they are going after more training. Masters Vernon Gardner, Charles Richman, Harrison Gross and Janice Wise make up the group and they are good. To those who might be interested, it is noteworthy that a glance at the last announcement of the music examination for assistance of the Baltimore shows that the standards have been raised as to eligibility to take the examination. Music at Morgan Morgan College continuing here its policy of trying to offer educational opportunities of all types for local THE SAXOPHONE Josephine Baker, the little Harlem "Countess," seen here playing a saxophone in a Paris band, was greeted with a blue note or two when she arrived in South America. She was also known for wearing a must wear more than while doing her familiar shiny act that has caused such haye throughout Europe. --- LINCOLN students is this summer offering courses in public school music. It might be of more or more passing interest than that given to music teacher in our public school system here in Baltimore has obtained at least a part of his music education offered through the opportunities offered by Morgan College.

Like "Porgy," "Hearts in Dixie" gives an accurate and undeniable insight into a certain stratum of life. Like "Porgy," that stratum is decidedly low.

The holdover demands are few. The return of the future is often thought of as a way to get the wholesome. WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD? Motion pictures are made to make money. So far as the producers are concerned, they have no other excuse for being. If "Hearts in Dixie" fails to do this this is not the extent that the producers had hoped, remaining to be able to be able to do this. It is this that the theatre does not want to do. It is not the conclusion that the theatre-going public does not want race films. It may never occur to them that the theatre-going public while not averse to Negro films, demands more than a meaningless and prejudiced playwrights and directors whose conception of Negro life is anything low and degrading. So far, the only Negro themes which have gained attention on stage, screen and in literature have been Hercules, a breeding place of vice, perilous, dangerous, unforgotten, and Caffeine Row, a disdainable, a unsatisfying place of ignorance, superstition and pestilence. Neither are quite satisfying to the intelligence theatre patron. "Is this," they ask, and justly so, "the true picture of the American Negro?" Of course it is not, and until white producers learn that the true version of the Negro will come only from Negro pens—pens that dare to portray the truth as it exists without playing to the galleries of prejudice or the way of the people. The truth is, the truth is, the galleries of prejudice or the way of the people. It is, in fact, but until it is, white producers will not be able to say with finality that the world does not want Negro films.

One woman and three men were held for court action when an arraignment on charges of failing to support their children, Friday.

(A N P) — "Harlem," the drama starring Negro actors and actresses, which has set a rapid pace in theatrical circles for the past few weeks, was ordered to close here after Thursday night's performance. This show is the second to be hit by the Chicago police in the attempt to "clean up the theaters" in Chicago. The show is an experience to the management and theater-goers. The play has received favorable comment from mo. of the theatrical critics and has played to large audiences nightly since it op- "Purifying Squad" Police Commissionir Russell's "purifying squad" attended the performance Wednesday night, and Thursday night, the closing order was issued. The commissioner had told the commissioner that "Harlem" was indecent, being replete with indecent scenes, and referred specifically to the scene depicting the murder of a woman, another featuring a dance which was declared "suggestive." According to rumors that are rife, the investigation of "Harlem" was actuated by the murder of the Negro citizen, who declared that the show reflected up on the Negro race as a whole and served to place the group in an embarrassing position because if "portrayed the lowest strata of racial Threaten Arrest The management announced that every effort would be made to have the officers and the commissioner in turn has issued the ultimatum that revocation of the license of the Apollo Theater and the arrest, to the members of the police force, to the police order is not complied with. "Frankie and Johnnie" was the first play hit in the "purification" play on the police Wednesday night. "I am determined that indecent shows shall not play in Chicago," declared the police. A similar nature will face the same action if attempts are made to show them here. "Move To New York" The show may be moved to New York to take the place of the original "Harlem" Company, which closed on Broadway recently and the management and the all-colored cast.

JOLLEY Again the Musicians' Union of Belfast publishes to the dances public that they keep their promises as advertised. They had twenty-three orchestras and bands playing at Wonderland Park, Thursday. Several months ago, the same organization held a concert like number of orchestras would dispense their wares at the New Albert Auditorium. Dut to having been fooled before, the public was skeptical, and a small number attended. But the orchestras were on the platform at the New Albert and disseminated jazz as only the best in the state of Maryland can. The other two bands and International, and they were to play in this of the hall. Due to rain, this was prohibited. But on Thursday, they held a street parade and the two brass outfits made for the occasion. More power to the musicians who keep their promises to the public. Speaking of advertisements, it has been noticed that the press agents for various dance promoting clubs and placards were seen throughout the city heralding the coming of Fletcher Henderson and his orchestra at the New Wonderland Park. But on Monday, the city's closest public place could see in the smallest of type, "Brother Horace Henderson" This style of advertising hurts promoters in general, but the public will not be able to advertise. Publicity men should be more careful. Hundreds of persons were disapposed when Horace Henderson failed to show up Tuesday evening at Wonderland Park for his scheduled engagement, while the orchestra was traveling had engine trouble, preventing them from arriving on time. Orchestras traveling in automobiles should be it that the orchestra is at the end of condition before starting on a trip.

In D Balt By I've been life out B A The Paris Pepper-Pot By J. A. ROGERS International Correspondent and Author. Montmartre, as we said in our last, is the capital of Gau Parree. It begins to show signs of life just when the rest of the world is putting on pelagias. And it is not until the clock in the morning that the jazz bands really begin to hit their stride, and the champagne works begin to pop their loudest at a pop. Colored boys from the States give the pop to Montmartre, and they are to be found in pretty good numbers. All of the leading cabarets have them—Zell's, Chez Florence, Palm, the Planation, the Grand Ecart, Florida, and Bricktop's. In all these places the jazz orchestras are among the best in the world, and when they hit the stage you simply can’t keep in your seat. It doesn’t matter if you never prepared before. Once on your feet. Whenever a fellow-musician is in need of assistance or burial he is the first one to be looked to, and he never fails in rallying a good collection. A newspaper published in Paris once slandered him. Gene sued for $20,000, and trotted out his war record. A few weeks later the paper was glad to compromise for $2,000, and carried an apology in its own columns and those of three other French papers. Very interesting, had we space to go into the details of that story. At Zell’s there is also “Cricket Smith.” Cricket is a marvel on the clarinet. There is also J. Glover Compton of Chicago.

O. MIDNIGHT Mr. Overton in a public address recently told how he made his Bible by taking two copies of the Scriptures and by removing the binding and cutting the pages he put together a Bible of his own liking, which is far smaller than the Book we know. And the story of the finding of Moses is not in Mr. Overton's Bible. Explaining why he has omitted it he said simply: "I do not consider it a story fit for my children to read." Seventh Commandment Strange isn't it that the modern world should have that view of the circumstances surrounding the birth of a historical figure known as the founder of medicine and the giver of laws including the Ten Commandments which our curmoral codes rest today? Did Moses' parents violate the seventh commandment? Bible Story of Moses Here is the Bible story. Figure it out for yourself. The Israelites were slaves in Egypt. The harder they were oppressed the more their number increased. Sturdy Hebrew bibles were given to children without the aid of a mid-wife. Pharaoh, in despair and fearing the Israelites would soon out-number the Egyptians, ordered that all male Hebrew bibles be thrown into the desert and only females be allowed to live. There was a man of the children of Levi named Amram, who took a wife of the tribe of Levi. They had a daughter called Miriam, who was a newborn baby, and a called Aaron, about four years old, at the time the king made this last decree. Hid Three Months His wife bore another son; and when she saw that he was a beautiful child, she hid him three months. When she could hide him no longer, she made him an ark of bulrushes, so that the order could not get in. Then she put the child in, and laid the pillow on his back. His sister stood a little behind him. His sister stood a little traohis Negroes?

In Darker Baltimore I've been having the time of my life out Baltimore County way helping the folks out there kick up the devil about a high school. If there is one compensation a newspaper writing guy gets for writing his lot more than the best god-forsaken of professions, it is helping folks kick up the devil about things. Deep down in his heart the average newspaper man cares little about the momentous problems that the ordinary yoke gets all worked up about. Deep in his soul he is little concerned with what happens if there is a fight for orphan children's parents, or the project to erect a monument to the sap who discovered shoe laces is successful or not. In short, the average newspaper guy doesn't give a great darn about anything in particular. If there is a fight for orphan children it's not satisfied he's getting dirty up in the front line branches. The pen, he believes, is mightier than the sword, and he hates to see his chief weapon of warfare lying around idle. There no end to it in energy he'll put forth just to be in some sort of literary battle with somebody.

Pharaoh's Daughter The daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe herself in the river, and her maddens walked with her by the river side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to bring it. She had it opened, saw the child and it wept. The princess pitied it, and said, "This is one of the Hebrews' children. Then the child's sister came and said to Pharaoh's daughter, "Shall I go and call a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?" The king's daughter said, "Go; and Miriam went and called the child's mother. Pharaoh's daughter said, "Take this child away and nurse it for me, and I will give the wages." And the woman took the child and nursed it. The child grew, and his mother brought him to Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. She called his name Mces; because, she said.

I am not a citizen of that thriving commonwealth, for which heaven be praised, and I have no desire to enter a high school there myself, and I have no desire to any offspring of mine will develop a similar desire. Frankly, I was stumped. I scanned the pictures of the school board and that of the superintendent in an effort to finish it. I could distill sufficiently to turn me against the whois blooming lot.

I recalled that way hack almost obliterated from my memory, there was an ancient grievance against the school board, which all these years, I was waited for a chance to even up.

Banker Overton's opposition to this story leads one to infer that we are not to take the word of Pharashta daughter, Thermuthis, seriously; that the child was probably her own anyway and the father was the young "noble" Hebrew, Amram, who had married his old aunt Jockeedb. Dark Skinned Princess Perhaps the dark-skinned princess fell in love with the youthful Amram. Their union, sanctioned neither by royal Egyptian nor Jewish slave morals, was fruitful and Moses had to be explained.

For instance, this year brings us a heavy crop of small sized oranges, whereas the large orange may not be as sweet. A result the large orange will sell at a high price, and the small orange is likely to sell at far less than its real value. Some women have such a desire for "size" that they insist upon large fruit without realizing the small fruit merely comes from trees that did not have maturation. They may be just as delicious as the large fruit. Furthermore, these seekers after size are very likely to get a smaller amount of fruit for their dollar than the wiser shoppers. Buy fifty cents' worth of large oranges may be worth of small ones. Weigh them, with or without the skins, and see where your money has been spent mostly wisely. I feel about school boards. I feel about school boards. Back in my old school, when I went to the town, the school came town one day. A circus played a far more important part in my life then it does now. The circus lot was just a stone's throw from the little red school house where we were confined, and quarrelled over having a grand time that day. Imagine our appointment and charge when the teacher announced that the school board had decreed that there could be no half holiday that day and we must remain in school. This Bali teacher me against school affairs. This baltimore affair gives me an opportunity to give vent to an old grudge. Baltimore County must have a high school. The cause of the parents is just, and whether it is just or not, they should have high school any school board says they ammit, and I hate school boards.

The government sent out searchers. Great rewards were offered, but when Ezra Selwyn returned to America with old Diaron and his wife, Meme, to serve him, he brought only his many huge trunks, and his twisted mind back with him. Mary Selwyn was by a memory to those who had known her as a beautiful and happy bride in that long ago and miserable Strange Addition It was after his return that "Old Ezra," as he was ever afterward to be known by the friends and neighbors whom he shunned and in a sense frightened, built the strange addition to his big country home. The work was done by imported labor from the small Spanish speaking islands of the group southeast of the U. S. When the work was done, they returned to their own island home without having had to leave the contact with the neighboring families. The few people who had the temerity to inquire about the addition to his house were met with insulting silence or curtsey. So the neighborhood, and especially the children of my time, regarded the "octagonal tower" of the old Selwyn house with fearful and consuming curiosity. Many and we were, too, to be shyly shaped protuberance that shot up above the corner of the second story of the great house like an ill-shaped blemish on the face of a beautiful woman. I traveled in the West when I got the letter from home telling me of the first of the murders in the octagonal Room. I had been worked on a case for the great Belton detective agency that employed me and this was my vacation as the My good friend and chum. Alce Armstrong, wrote me about it. Alce and I had worked together on many cases but a bullet from a revolver hit him. He told me that we had brought to bay in the Hall bank robbery had put Alce out of commission, and so he was at home when the first of the series of horrors in the old Selwyn house broke. It certainly is in keeping with the traditions of the old place. Tom's his letter said, "weird doesn't begin to explain it.

Then once get inside those carved doors at the wide front entrance, there is a long hall that leads straight back to the kitchen and servants' room. The servants' room is the left-hand side of the first entrance is the lil' room. A back sitting room. I think old Diaron and his wife use it for a sort of living room.

She was the first to see the master in the dimness—there is no way of lighting the room. It seems, except (Continued on next page) FROM my earliest childhood the eerie aspect of the old Selwyn house and its weird and lonely isolation from neighbors, had intrigued my interest. My grandfather had been a friend and contemporary of Ezra Selwyn when they were both runaway slaves, he from his master's plantation in Virginia and Ezra from the big house of the same name. He was a servant. The two brave-hearted and upstanding youngsters, with the blood of sable kings of an ancient race firing their ambition, decided they would no longer be unwilling to take of bondage. They planned and executed a daring escape. Safely they made their way to Canada and the blessed boon of freedom. There they remained, working and hoping and saving. They united a hunter from the stigma of slavery, once more beckoned their homesick hearts to the sunshine and beauty of its land of cotton and song. They returned to more in the country of their birth. A few years later their ways parted again for a brief time. The education they had attained in their sojourn in Canada fitted them in a very peculiar manner for the places that the new day brought into their life. Grandfather became one of the first school teachers of his own race for those less fortunate than he had been. Ezra Selwyn was chosen to represent his government as minister to the king of Hatti. When he parted from my grandfather with his new bride for whom this trip was to be a honeymoon, there was no happier nor more hopeful day than with him. So grandfather said when long afterward people spoke of the eccentric, half crazy old miser who lived almost alone—save for the two Haitian servants who bleak face far back among the huge trees surrounding it. Mary Mary Grant, the girl Ezra Selwyn married, was beautiful. There was never another more beautiful than she. Her dark eyes looked out on the world with that strange magnetic lure of inner spiritualness. Her mother loved and her sister loved and her body was graceful as wild things are graceful. The fawn and the doe could move no more lightly in the soft green shadow of the jungle fastnesses that came up to the back door; the minister and his wife which she occupied with her husband, in these all too short days of her happiness, and his. Partly by things that Ezra said in those early days following the tragedy and part from the talk of the talk of the two loyal Haitians, who accompanied him back to the country estate that he had designed as a home for the young bride, when he should have been recalled, was the traditional story of her earl as a child. Behind the detached kitchen of the house where Erax Selwyn and his bride were settled stood the stone built servant's quarters. A garden of wild tropics and a long rambling verandah ran around the dwelling itself on three sides. The house faced the fashionable street that led into the centre of the town. Beyond the garden and gradually ascending to the mystery and intrigue that maintains interest in the distance were miles of jungle, as virgin as the astoness of those primitive ancestors of the people that inhabited the land. Here often Mary like wander in those first white areas in the city, but his many new lives in the government service. The cool green fastnesses seemed to have a strangely mystic lure for her. Something of the mysticism seemed gradually to grow and spread into weeks and into weeks. The nearness of the jungle, the weird call of the voodoo drums through the perfumed twilight as it was borne to them on the soft right winds, seemed to come into contact in both. It was as if they were being drawn in spite of themselves, to some strange fate that waited them beyond the borders of the safe, sane life they led. Restlessness At last one night, as they sat listening to the drum beats, Mary suddenly became restless and strangely agitated. She had been alone all day and something of the jungle which she had seen to have permeated her blood. Abruptly she got up from her chair and with a casual word to her husband explaining that she would go inside and get a wrap, she left him. For a while he sat waiting for her, the minutes passed. The steady beat of the drums sounded far, near, farther, nearer, from above, from below, from everywhere. That steady beat flowed from all directions into his brain—into his heart—in his mind; it healed it, and terrified him in some wild primitive way that he could not fathom. Where was Mary? Why didn't she come back? At last he could stand it no longer. It was foolish but a great success. "Mary," he called, and again "Mary!" But no one answered him. Only the drums beat on and on. Something like a menace seemed to hover over him. He rose from his chair in frantic-haste and entered the house. Within all was silent. The window opening on one side of the room, Mary's room, opened. The wind lifted and waved the white curtains. In the darkness they were not unlike the white ceremonies of the dead being waved from high hillside to low hillside between the worlds. The room was empty. Era ran to the window and looked out; there was no one in sight. The stone servants' quarters and the kitchen stared whitefully through the darkened windows, visible from their blank windows. Thoroughly terrified, the young husband ran crying into the night. "Maryl Maryl" he cried, but only the signing of the wind in the trees and the drums angrily shouted to the man who came back with him when he returned to Solwyn House, afterwards found him crying so, when the mists of morning broke, he ran out of the dark forests in which he searched, ever crying and calling A man in a tropical forest, holding a phone to his ear, is calling out to someone.

Strange Addition Off of this to the left is a narrow passage not any too wide for one person to move through comfortably. It leads to the entrance to the octagonal room. It is about twelve feet long and at the end is a long narrow door with a transom above it with a small to admit even a little's body. Death "Diaron says it is his custom to carry food to his master whenever he is busy in the octagonal room at night. But he always waits at the entrance to the corridor for the sign of the master's drastic rules. He had never disbelieved it till the other night. And even then, only under conditions so appalling that even old Ezra must have understood the reasonableness of them if he were able to speak—which he isn't, being at this moment stretched cold in death in that same octagonal room. But that is antidoting. Old Diarum was in the habit of establishing himself in a chair at the entrance to the passageway leading to the mystery room when he had to leave the room. The darkness was not an uncommon occurrence. 'Last night, it seems, he was so early, or rather so far ahead of his master's readiness to receive him, that he became drowsy and had leached into the wall of the wider corridor, and closed his eyes. He must have dropped off to sleep. He swears, however, that he was not dreaming when the incident that he described very vividly happened. "I was sitting right here." Diarum told me, when someone woke me up with start. At first I thought it was the trees scraping against the side of the house, but immediately I knew no tree branch could make a noise like that. "S-c-r-u-s-h, S-c-r-u-s-h, like some great body creeping stealthily over a rough surface. S-c-r-u-s-h, a huge serpent might make such a sound as it drew its sinister length through the jungle forest in quest of its prey. I sat up and listened." "There is no doubt that old Dilaron is telling the truth about the last part because the neighbors over at the far side of the Selway are chasing the shrieks. "As I listened, the old man continued, 'the creeping sound ceased suddenly, but on the heels of the silence there came hurtling across the stillness, shriek after shriek.

Do you believe the ministers should have a standard marriage fee? Mrs. Mary F. Sewell, 2038 Drum Hill avenue: "Ministers ought not to charge for anything pertaining to their marriage. It is one of their duties and they should accept whatever fee the person gives them." Mrs. Laura Garrett, Community House: "I think it absurd for ministers to set a standa d fee for marrying persons. They should accept whatever is given them." Miss Louise Dashields, 1118 Division street: "I am in favor of the standard marriage fee of $5 as suggested by the 'Ministers' Alliance recently, as it prohibits a preacher from charging excessive rates." Mrs. Martha McFadden, 1124 Madison avenue: "I am not in favor of the standard marriage fee of $5.00. Preachers of the gospel should not expect a definite sum for uniting a couple i wodlock, but should willingly accept any amount given by the bridegroom of his own free will." Miss Catherine Matthews, 1118 Division street: "Ministers should have a standard fee for performing marriages and five dollars is the proper amount to charge."

ATLANTIC CITY-By defeating the Bacharach Glants here, Tuesday by an 8-6 score, the Baltimore Black Sox swinging a foray against the Homestead Grays in the American League standing. Yokely and Lee opposed Mitchell and Cooper on the mound the local moundsters allowing 48 hits and 14 doubles that were only able to garner eight. The local Black Sox displayed their strength in the American Baseball Learns; bunting race Sunday, by coping a doubleheader Ben Taylor's Bacharach Glants. The first contest ended with a score of 8 to 6, and the second game faded out with a 10 to 4 verdict. The first game was fraught with many differences of opinions by umpires and players, resulting finally in Wilson's banishment, in the fifth stanza, when "Babe" argued a close play at third. He pushed "Hump" Vallee on the head, and attempted to make a pass at highness. Hubbard Thrills. By far the most, spectacular play in the first game was Hubbard's thrilling shoe-string catch of Cooper long fly, in the second field. The ball was difficult to field, requiring Hubbard to make a long run, before snaring it off the ground. After rolling over two times, the ball sphere clutched firm, his glove. Bees Score : first The Bacharach Giants were the first to get a run. It came in the 3rd. Until then they were held hitless by Master Yokely. Walker filed out to Marcus and was hit out by a thrilling route (two men down. Reid sinned to left, Jenkins singled to right. White singled to right, scoring 7. Marcus Jenkins and stole second. Eggleton went out, Marcel to Wilson, to retire the side. The Black Sox made one good in the fourth when Dixon received a pass, Lundy grounded to the center scoring Dixon, Clark went out, Walker to Reid to retire the side. The game appeared to be a pitcher's duel at the beginning. Yokely allowing not one but two Giants jumped for four. Cooper was stingy, allowing one in the second and one in the 3rd. He was touched for only 12 hits during the game and Yokely gave up 9. The contests, and appreciative crowd viewed the contests. The nightcap was played under protest by the Bee Giants. This action was deemed advisable by both Owens Washington and Manager Taylor, because of the fact the Sox insisted on Wilson being in the lineup after his banishment from the first contest by Umpire Vallee. The fans received that which over-joys hearts of lovers of the National pastime—witnessing two home runs. The first came in the 4th, Washington first up poling a homer on the first pitched ball, and Wilson imitat-ing in the seventh with one man on the paths.

SUGGESTS MARCH DATE Aguas Calientes Would be Scene of Match. PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—Joseph Kennedy, local boxing promoter, announced that he will offer Jack Dempsey $500,000 to meet George Goofrey in a 10-round bout at the Municipal Stadium, late in September or early in October. Kennedy said he would give Dempsey $100,000 as soon as he signed. LOS ANGELES, CAL., (A. N. P.) "Godfrey is the man I'll fight," said ex-champion Jack Dempsey at a conference held at the Bilmore Hotel with Gene Nornile, and James Crofton, partner in the magnificent new racing and gambling casino at Aguas Calientes, Mexico, according to reports. Local fans, white and colored, are ill pepped up over the prospective match which will in reality be held to settle the heavyweight championship of the world. The conference had hardly begun before the ex-heavy "impossessed, Will you figure out Godfrey?" said the old Manassa Mauler, as he seemed to knit his eyebrows in surprise at the question. "They all look alike to me when I am in that ring. Godfrey has licked all of those fellows except Schmelling. So is a big card out here on the coast after having licked Uzcuedan, and from what gather Uzcuedan, and from what licked him in the ring at Aguas Calientes. It makes no difference to me whom I meet. "I told them that I would be glad to meet the winner of the New York heavyweight tournament. If Schmelking stands up 16 against Uzcudun and wins a couple of more fights, he would be able to win against Aqua. Otherwise, I'd be willing to take on Godfrey, Jack Sharkey, Uzcudun or anybody that can draw them in at the gate." "I don't care when, but say about March 1 to 15 would suit me fine. That would give me a chance to go up in the mountains for four or five minutes." The proposal as outlined, calls for the erection of an arena near the hotel. It will be built to care for 50,000 fans. The prices will be so ranged as to allow a million dollar gate with capacity attendance. Opinion is divided as to the outcome, but white fans, of course, still want to see a man, while colored fans just know the big, good-natured colored boy born in Mobile can beat the "man mauler." HILLDALE-CUBANS IN 10-INNING TIE HILLDALE-CUBANS IN 10-INNING TIE ten innings to a 3-3 stalemate, the Hilldale club and the Cuban Stars voluntarily closed hostilities in order to allow the Daisies to catch a train for another game schedules at Murray Park. The team developed into a pitchers' duel between Cooper of the Bolden wrecking crew and Juanello, the Pompez slab artist. The Cubans took the lead in the fifth when Baro singled, scoring on a double by Solis, who also scored when Correia singled. Hilldale bunched two hits with a single, the sebastian for and Holloway, singled. Dallard walked, the former scoring when Johnson singled.

AS A MAJOR SPORT in our larger colleges, seems to be on the bobogan, and are long, unless conditions change rapidly, will be discarded as a has-been. Howard Lincoln, and other of our larger schools, spies report, have been finding baseball for from profitable during the past few years, and consequently, student interest in the sport has slumped to such an extent that only a very few become interested enough to even come out to watch the team play, much less take an active part in the game. As a result, any attempts to keep the sport alive have been dismal financial failures, and only in the farthest South, particularly in North Carolina, Alabama and Texas, has there been any great amount of enthusiasm shown, either on the part of players or student fans. It may be no surprise, then, to find baseball either scrapped or soon relegated to a position as a minor sport. There has been much speculation as to the reason or reasons why baseball does not afford the collegians the same "kick" that they get out of football and basketball. Despite the fact that baseball—the professional variety—is considered the national pastime, there has never been a time when college baseball held sway over the monarchs of gridiron and wooden court, and it is pretty certain that the short season is largely responsible for this concern. Basketball reigns for at least three months or more, and basketball for a like period or even a little longer, and in this lies much of the explanation of their great, popularity as collegiate sports. Football is easily the "national pastime" as far as the rah-rah boys are concerned. A critic then asks, "Where will the big leagues draft their players?" and a passing cynic parries with, "What big leagues?" And to the critic we answer, "From the southern schools and from the sandlots as usual." "Up From the Sandlots" might well be the title of a book telling of the careers of most of our baseball players, for it is from such humble beginnings that most of our star base tossers came. Even the C.I.A.A. baseball conference seems to have lost much of its old-time appeal, and while a schedule of games is played each year, there has certainly been no increase in the games, as has been attested by the small numbers attending them. At Livingstone, Johnson C. Smith, Texas College, Alabama State, and a few other southern schools, there is still a great interest manifested in the diamond games, and it is to these schools that sport fans look for news of college baseball. One advantage in the South, however, is the fact that the season can be begun so much earlier than it can elsewhere. It is not unusual for some of these schools to be playing games in February, or at least practicing. Forced to wait until at least the latter part of April, or the first of May, most of the other schools, which usually close the latter part of May or the first of June, find themselves hard put to stir up any great amount of interest during the short period before commencement.

Tuesday night. Brown, who prior to the fight had been recognized by the National Boxing Association as the 118-pound king distinctly, outclassed greats from the times in the thirteenth round. The Spanlard's boring-in tactics were met with stiff left from Brown, who was never in danger. Both boxers weighed in under the bantain limit, Brown weighing 117 lbs and when he dropped to 110 lbs, Gregory was no match for Brown and when he dropped for the count of eight in the thirteenth round, many fans thought that the end was at hand. Brown boxed like a champion and stepped around with the grace and speed of a greyhound. In the fight, he claimed a full blow, but when Referee Lou Magnolia ignored him he continued fighting.

KEYSTONE, CHICAGO. Do you know that thousands of people burn incense just to change their work? And claim to get results, too! This practice dates back to Biblical days, when burning incense was believed to have mirculous power for the good. Then the priests, wise men and all burned incense with similar faith. The amazing new Incense known as "Lucky Stars" contains certain things which were used in crude form thousands of years ago. But now it is pressed into odd-shaped Stars, and each one branded with the words "Lucky Star." The odor is wonderful, and they are very useful. Try them yourself according to directions to each package and see. Send $1.00 for a full-size box of "Lucky Stars" of $25 for a trial package to day.

TWO ARE SNUBBED Two Left Out for Hospitality · Toward DePriest Family. WASHINGTON, D. C.—A new social problem apparently moves to reaching the elderly. Cnnn controversy which disturbed society circles immediately following the inauguration, is now arising over the status of Mrs. Oscar DePriest, following his appearance at a White House canvass. A reception to be given by Representative and Mrs. DePriest for which invitations are already cut has caused a stir. The Whites in Washington, Representative J. C. Shaffer, white, Republican from the Ninth congressional district, the bus became so incensed that he sent the Illinois representative a sorrowing letter warning him that his attempt to establish social' equality was "perilous." The Shaffer letter, in part, follows: T. decline the invitation. "Permit me to say that I am a Republican member of Congress and that I have observed your course in and exemplary. The continuance of this course would have won you the admiration and respect of your colleagues and of the country. Everybody by which you are entitled by virtue of your high office. Will Disturb Relations "You are now on a perilous course which will if you continue, disturb relations which have long been amicably settled in the South. The people of the country are in the development and advancement of your race, and I strongly favor this course. "Any movement or attempt by you in the direction of social equality is not a true interpretation of the attitude of the people tolerated by the white people of the country, nor is it desired by the Negro race. "The white people have their position in the country. The coord race has its place and is respected in it. No one desires to disturb these relations. To do so might lead to disaster." - Warren Enemies The affair planned by Mr. DePriest is to take place in the Washington Auditorium on the night of June 21. All Republican members of Congress and race members social or prominent leaders are expected to the extenuation of two: Representative Pritchard of North Carolina, who refused offices next in DePriest and Mrs. Albert H. Vesey of Indiana, and Representative Ball rule against Mrs. DePriest in the Congressional Club. That the White House is beset over the fireback from the DePriest affair is apparent. Scores of telegrams such as the one sent by I. C. Trotman, of Suffolk Va., another member of the anti-SMITH committee, have been issued the Roosevelt convention, have been reachingly the executive offices. Trotman addressed his wire to Mrs. Hoover, saving "Your tea navy cost the Republican an entire Virginia and less than 25% of the revenue the Roosevelt from you would do lots of good." Most of those telegramming their condemnation of the affair and the social equality movement have addressed their galvanize and respect for our restraining them from bringing the name of the first lady to the disreceable affair. Auto Collision Injures Two Two HELDELPHIA — James Fletcher and HELDELPHIA — James Fletcher and Sulzberger Junior High School, were seriously injured as the result of the collision of two automobiles at 46th street and Fairmount avenue. Friday, one of the machines careened over the curb stirring a group of six children.

Police found it necessary to check the crowd which showed no evidence of entreatment and anger over the accident. Both drivers were arrested. 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., cor.

Both vehicles long and successful stays on Broadway and producers less to account for the attitude encountered in the Iles and on embankment. Look of Understanding London correspondents state that the English theatreregisters failed to understand or sympathetic with the inhabitants of "Cathay" and that they depicted in their works the same attitude of American customs relative to Negroes also accounted for their failure to warm up to the Dixie play. "Blackbirds" is striking an almost similar difficulty to English, and a large number fails to register with the natives. The audiences leave the theatre puzzled. Hot dancing and good singing may hold the ten weeks to be booked. Insiders are enthusiastic over the engagement.

Washington made a circuit clout over the fence in the 4th frame, and in the same stanza the bases intoxicated with one down, but the other intoxicated with two down with a neat double play. Of course, if Winston, Lundy and Hubbard had known they were doomed to die on paths after singling, they would have followed Washington's lead and each hit for the record. Even Yokee hit safely Sunday, because a percentage of 500-2 hit out of 100-2 we saw never tell what may happen in a ball game. Some people enjoy themselves at ball games, but like the fellow who climbed the wire netting back of the catcher's box Sunday when Wilson knocked a homer, added any other form of amusement,拥抱 baseball, cause a man to climb a wire mesh before a crowd of 5,000? "Four or Five Times" is a popular tune in Altoona, and Giants attempted to emulate the song in markers Sunday, when they succeeded in scoring four men in the 5th stanza of the first game.

More and more each day we miss her. Friends may think the wound is healed; But they little know the sorrow That lies within our hearts concealed. By her daughter, CARRIE PINKET. GILLES—In memory of my beloved husband and our dear father, Charles Hammond, who departed that life three years ago, June 20, 1928. Thou hast lived in pain and woe. Thou hast lived in grief and fear; Now thine heart can dread no blow. Now thine eyes can shed no tear: Storms round us shall beat and stare. Thou art sheltered in the grave. Thou for long, long years hast borne. Bleeding through life wilderness, Heavy loss and wounding scorn; Nainly rest for ours we crave; Thine is quiet in the grave. We must toil with pain and care, We must front tremendous fate, We must fight with dark despair; Thou dost dwell in solemn state, Couched triumph, calm and brave. In the ever-holy grave. By his beloved WIFE and CHILDREN. KING—In loving remembrance of his husband, Robert H., who departed this life five years ago, June 16th, 1824. My hope is built on nothing less. Than Jesus blood and righteousness. I dare not trust the sweetest frame. Belle will love in love frame. By his wife, Emma V. T. King, Bel A. NO. WHITE—Sacred to the memory of my beloved husband, George White, who passed peacefully into the great beyond one year ago, June 17, 1928. God caused him home. He was His will; But in my heart I love him still. His memory is as dear today As in the hour he passed away; Dearest husband, how I miss you. Since from earth you passed away; And my heart is aching sorely As I think of you today. By devoted wife, MRS. SARAH R. WHITE.
