In the deat. of Louis Marshall, the Negroes of America have one of the very best friends they have ever had. The news will be received with sorrow by colored people throughout the country. Mr. Marshall first became interested in the N.A.A.C.P. through the victory in Arkansas peonage cases, where six colored farmers, who had been sentenced to death, were ordered retrial. The Arkansas Court and were subsequently released, because the Supreme Court held that the process of law, even though legal forms were complied with, the N.A.A.C.P. in behalf of the Arkansas colored farmers, Mr. Marshall failed as of primary importance. He pointed out that he had tried to procure such a decision in the Leo Frank case, in which he had 39th Year, Num ber 1 NEGPO - NDIAN MIX-UP RILES VIRGINIANS State Health Dept. Complains to U. S.

"As an illustration we have large adjacent counties, Rockbridge and adjacent counties, descendants of freed Negroes, who have been locally known as 'free issue.'

Mr. Cullen still remains abroad, studying and writing, on a Guggenheim fellowship. Asked how she spent last year, Mrs. Cullen said: "I matriculated in the Latin quarter of New York, and I under a private teacher, Madam Morin, because I did not like the classes in the University of Paris. They were too big, and were full of white Americans. "I could get more out of my studies in art and French under a private teacher." Lived Torether Asked if she and her husband lived in separate hotels as reported last March in dispatches from France, printed in U.S.A. newspapers, and in a private hotel, husband lived together in a hotel until her mother came to visit her in January.

Understanding On Divorce Asked when Mr. Cullen will get the divorce he is said to have planned, Mrs. Cullen said: "He will have named any divorce. If any divorce is gotten, I will get it. It is understood between us that he will permit me to get a divorce whenever I choose, and we are thinking of it but there are no particular reasons. He will not intimate and at social gatherings. We have had no reasons, either, while abroad, to avoid each other, and we were together a number of times in restaurants and at social gatherings. "For myself, I went about very little, because I was taken ill and sent to the American hospital (Neuilly) in Paris and was there six months with a sickness caused by the flu, and I was in a hospital which often gets hold of Americans." "Mr. Cullen came down to visit me whenever he was in the city. I was kind, and him, too, because I didn't know a soul. Who Is the Other Girl? Asked who was the other American girl with whom Mr. Cullen was said to be in love. Mrs. Cullen said, "To be in love, Mrs. Cullen is. When we read about it in the press, we both laughed and I asked him who the lady was and he said, I don't know what he said to the press.

Both Spolled Discussing Mr. Cullen's reputed statement that his wife was spied the reporter asked: "Are you?" Are you? The answer was "I guess we are both spoiled, each being an only child."

LiberiaRefused$5,000,000 Loan from N.C. Mutual Co. Funds Subsequently Secured Through Firestone Tire Company. Faulkner Says President King Feared Race Aid. Liberia's difficulties are due to poor administration, declared Thomas J. R. Faulkner, candidate for the presidency, opposing President C. B. D. King of Liberia who was elected in the last presidential campaign. Mr. Faulkner has been in this country for two months seeking the influence of the government and interested citizens for the abolition of a public sentiment that will eliminate fraud in elections there. "President King," Mr. Faulkner said, "could have gotten along much faster had he shown a friendly disposition colored people of the United States." "When Liberia needed money several years ago to refund its debt, the President came to America." "I understand that the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance company he has authorized to underwrite the loan, but President King refused, declaring that he did not wish private aid." "Subsequently, the effort for a loan from the United States failed and he was forced to resort to the Firestone company." Home for Christmas Mr. Faulkner will be in Philadelphia and New York next week. He talks about the middle of November in order to arrive back home in Liberia by Christmas. With the results of his trin, Jim Crow Rearer Reccents in New York Cotton Planter's Son Peeved by Race Members of P.E. Church NEW YORK (Special)—The Rev. William E. Blackshear, son of a southern cotton planter, who brought his prejudices to New York when he became president Brooklyn, is not as anxious today as he was Sunday to get all of the "migras" out of his church. Speaking to a crowded church last Sunday he said, "Mr. Matthews church doesn't want the 'migras' money. We have a couple of 'migras' members, but we don't want any more. There is no use beating around the bush. We intend to keep it white. Nigra members will be permitted to remain until they can arrange to go somewhere else. No new Nigra members will be received. It is the responsibility of the Episcopal church to separate the races. Monday, James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N.A.A.C. addressed a letter to the church's board of vestymen asking if the board approved the minister in his attitude. A telegram followed demanding Representations to the State Department resulted in an American note to Liberian officials to liberate Liberian slavery conditions. A commission is to be appointed consisting of one American one Liberian and a third person to represent the Liberian government. Mr. Faulkner also went to Geneva before coming to the United States and laid the situation before the League of Nations. No Colored Americans With Firestone As another example of the attitude of the United States toward colored Americans, Mr. Faulkner said, is shown in that the Firestone rubber plantation company in Liberia, is employing a number of white workers from the United States, but no colored workers. Mr. Faulkner quoted Mr. Firestone himself, as saying that President King desired no colored American workers. Since arriving in this country, Mr. Faulkner says, he has received letters from friends at home indicating that the government was three months in arrears in his payment of government workers and that times were hard Going Away?

Jim Crow Rector Recants in New York Cotton Planter's Son Peed by Race Members of P.E. Church NEW YORK (Special)—The E.W. Wilhelm E. Blackshear, son of a southern Blackshear, brought his prejudices to New York when he became rector of St. Matthews P.E. church, Brooklyn, is not as anxious today as of the "nigras" out of his church. Speaking to a crowded church last Sunday, he said, "I don't want the 'nigras' money. We have a couple of 'nigras' members, but we don't want any more. There is no use beating around the bush. We don't want to keep and tend to keep it white. 'Nigras' members will be permitted to remain until they can arrange to go somewhere else. No new N!-members. We don't want the policy of the Episcopal church to separate the races." Monday, James Weldon Johnson, secretary, wrote to the church's letter to the church's board of vestrymen asking if the board supported the minister in his attitude. The telegram followed demanding the board of Blackshear as one unit to be the tular and spiritual leader of a Christian church. Johnson said: "We understand that there are several colored communicants of your church who have been members for a number of years and are to the support of the church." "For them to be publicly and insultingly expelled for no reason, I have no contrary to the teachings of the founder of Christianity, but is a gross violation of ordinary justice and common decency and courtey." "Negroes have a legal right in the church and if Blackshear's attitude has not the support of the vestymen, we are sure, you will be disavow it. If it has your sanction, God help you." Blackshear when interviewed by Tuesday hypothetically declared that he was as much a friend of the Negro as any man. He said he was a graduate of HU and Oxford universities but was born in the South. "The idea that I have driven any 'nigras' out of the church is not new, we new color people now members we as welcome as anyone else."

RUINS FOUND Early Negroes Miners; Shaft Uncovered. CAPETOWN, S. A.—Over 7,000 years ago when wild animals and naked savages roamed over Europe and America, a flourishing civilization of colored people existed in Zimbabwe, East Africa. This is the view o. Professor Leo Frobenius, Harvard explorer and archeologist, now at work in South Africa. The result of his study of the Zimbabwean and civilization connected with them was published recently in the Cape Argus, newspaper. Prof. Frobenius declared that a great race lived in the area extending from Africa to the east, religion dominated their national life, and the people worshipped the moon and stars and possessed a wonderful knowledge of astronomy, their Venus year corresponding with the Sirius year of the Egyptians. Eventually the fabric on which this empire was based, collapsed, and those who expelled it, many fleeing northwards, and to this day, according to the professor, relies of this civilization are to be found in Africa. They were a mining people. They were not warlike, since enemies never threatened them; Some 150 years ago, the last of them disappeared, but legends of their greatness still exist in the buildings of this civilization were temples. They could not possibly have been fortresses, for they were of easy access on all sides. a remarkable knowledge of geology, for though there were seemingly only three places in the country where minerals were to be found, they discovered them and sank beautifully cohesive sand. In one of these old workings, he found a shaft forty-five feet deep, proceeding horizontally from that depth for about a mile, and then proceeding three feet wide and one a half feet high. How people managed to work there, or how they obtained light and ventilation is not known. The type of bronze called nickel bronze was found in only certain parts of Africa, said Prof. Frobenius. It was found nowhere else in the world, and articles and objects of nickel bronze and Samaria which had belonged to old civilizations were found to contain the same ingredients and were made of this nickel bronze. Civilization originated from the East Indians who emigrated to East Africa and settled there. Questioned concerning any anatomical between present races in Central and South-East Africa and the Indians, Prof. Frobenius said that it is not likely that any investigation on these lines will yield valuable results. East Indians will settled Amore African would within a few hundred years conform in appearance and structure to the Africans and would lose their original charm. 2,500 Years Ahead "Researchers of our institute," said the professor. "have given proof that iron and iron manufacturing was in existence in Central Africa for 2,500 years before it arrived in Europe. The source of the high civilizations in Babylon and in Egypt, the pro-conflict declared, is found in South Africa. Believe Rhinelander Settlement Is Near OMAHA. Neb.-Settlement of the troubles of the Rhinelanders is believed near. A meeting between Kip Rhinelander and his father, Philip, and Kip's attorney, Leon R. Jacobs, all white, was staged here this week. Kip after losing his annulment suit against his wife, Alice, in New York, has instituted suit for divorce in the case of his daughter. Alice has indicated she will contest the proceedings. Alice is nearly as light in color as Kip, but she admittedly has several droplets of blood. A possible solution of the divorce situation may be attempted through the offer of a very substantial financial settlement with Alice, as an inducement to permit the Nevada proceedings to be completed. Alice to Sue Alice Rhinelander will not oppose Kio's suit for divorce in Reno. She will, however, sue in the New York court for sequestration. In allowance of $223 per month at present but under the new agreement it is believed she will get an increased amount of alimony.

All of the veterans, now past 80 years of age, showed extreme courage in the battle, which extended for a mile. Many of them marched with canes and crutches, but they were a jolly lot, and received great acclaim from 75,000 who witnessed the stirring spectacle. One of the most popular veterans here was Colonel Henry Singleton, a minister of the gospel, of New Haven, Conn.

Joe Tolbert, Perry Howard Also to be Ousted. WASHINGTON. D. C.—Elimination of the Negro from party leadership and an increased representation in Republican national conventions are the bait being offered to the South in an effort to hold Republican gains in southern states in 1928 for the next Presidential election. Under this scheme, colored Republicans, who are titularly party leaders in their respective states, will be displaced by a lily-white leadership. There are only three states in which this plan needs to be put into effect. They are Georgia, Mississippi and South Carolina. Incidentally, none of these three states will be given an increased representation in the Republican national convention. White Leaders The Republican bosses have lone wanted white leadership in Georgia. They were thwarted by their desiries by the Democratic leaders in Illinois, Benjamin Jefferson Davis, of Atlanta, succeeded Mr. Johnson as a member of the Republican national committee and dominated the party until he was defeated by a prosecution himself similar to that of Perry W. Howard in Mississippi. The vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. Davis from the Republican national committee has not been filled. A white man is slated to succeed him. But Mrs. George S. Williams is the national committee representative under continual ignoring in patronage matters. She has never been allowed to make recommendations for Federal offices in her state, where she is a member of the administration can give no reason for not imposing confidence in her. There lies a delicate situation. Mrs. Williams, and it is no, in the Republican scheme of politics in the South where patronage committees have been set up, that any colored person should be a member of the white office seekers to have to ask Precious new beauty SPREADonNadine Face Powder—and glorify your skin instantly!

(CNS)—After an unsuccessful search for contraband liquors on the premises of Charles Lee, in Bryan's Court, Charles Lee where a hostile bulldog back yard where a hostile bulldog held forth. Growling deep-throated threats at the raiders, the dog defied them to search the warehouse by bending to string to a heavy box in the doghouse. Bent on defending the box with his life, it was several minutes before he was finally out of the warehouse and the box dragged forth. It contained four bottles of alleged whisky. Lee was charged with possession. a colored man or woman for a Federal job, the administration has been told to obviate such a situation and make the Republican party respectable for Hoovercreats the Negro must be eliminated from party leadership. Howard Disregarded In Mississippi the situation is not so difficult. Perry W. Howard remains the titular head of the party. He is the Republican national committeeman. Mrs. Mary C. Boone is the Republican national committeewoman. But as far as the patience duties of the office of governor, white, who unsuccessfully sought to detrone Howard in the Republican primaries and conventions in Mississippi as well as in the courts and at the Republican national convention, has been made the head of Republican affaits in that state. Howard is a wily politician. He will play politics with the very men who have set up Rowlands in Mississippi, and with Rowlands himself if it is necessary, and it is not too much easier, and with Rowlands himself, it comes to regain his power. Joe Tolbert In South Carolina the only question is the riddance of old man Joe Tolbert, white, the Republican national committeeman, who has a black coat and a black tie. He mixed delegations to Republican national conventions. Tolbert wears a collar but never a necktie. The Hoover edict for reformation of the party and the setting of the presidential election that state ended his power, but he still holds on to his membership on the Republican national committee from which he cannot be ousted unwillingly before the national convention in To Recall Mann Horace Mann, the chief advocate of white leadership of the Republican party in southern states, was a strong supporter of the party under the re-organization plans of Claudius H. Huston, the new chairman of the Republican national committee. Robert R. Merrimack, the former chairman, was credited with forcing Mann, to quit his activities. Brown Dubious The return of Mann to the party's councils, is expected to arouse antagonisms with Wallace. The Brown does not believe that the South will remain permanently Republican. He thinks it should be regarded as a section of the country sure to be mobilized by a President seeking remonition. The Huston-Mann view is that certain states will be the Republican fold. They believe that white leadership, together with rapid industrialization of states like Virginia, North Carolina, Texas, and Florida, will tend to make them Rejected by Work Mann's proposal for a "lily-white" reformation of the Republican party in the South was rejected by Dr. Huston. He said the national committee shortly after March 4. His suggestions did not find favor with national committee from northern and middle western states where the colored vote is a favor. According to Mr. Huston, the South by its increased vote will gain from 53 to 100 delegates in the next congressional election. The latter figure, he is quoted as having said, "If the basis of representation is made upon the new apportionment of Congress. If not, the South will probably be 53." G. O. P. Rules The rules of the Republican party provide that the delegates to the national convention shall be apportioned as follows: Two for each Senator, one for each Congressman and an additional delegate. The number of delegates to 10,000 Republican votes in the last national election, as well as three delegates-at-large for each State that went Republican. Under that rule, based on the last election delegates from the South in the next convention, would be as follows: Alabama 21, an increase of 8; Florida 14, an increase of 8; Carolina 14, an increase of 8; Ohio 4; Kentucky 21, an increase of 8; Tennessee 26, an increase of 7; Texas 42, an increase of 18; Virginia 26, an increase of 7; Arkansas 11, Georgia 41; Louisiana 12 and South Carolina 11.

WILLIAMS She's Not Committeewoman, He Declares ATLANTA, GA—Benjamin Davis, former national Republican committeeman, is ready to desert Hoover. Refusal of the President to recognize colored Republican leaders in Georgia, and his insistence upon the use of a black flag, white-whites, caused Mr. Davis to say, editorially, in his paper this week: "If the present administration wants two parties in the South and the North to flair in the lock, the Negro had as well accept the challenge and contribute in the best way he can by diving into the issues, and make for the balance of power between these two agencies of government, and cast his lot independently on ever occasion with that opportunity to make his living and to exercise his constitutional rights." According to Mr. Davis, the Negro in the South has to choose between to cast his lot with the will continue to cast his lot with the Republicans who have assassinated him in his party home, or make the best bargain he can with the Democrats to fulfill him politically from the front.

Sumner Wormley, member of the trustee board of Howard university, representing the alumni of the institution, tendered his resignation to General Sherburne, president of the board, on Thursday, September 5, to take effect at the beginning of the school year. It was on his birthday that Dr. Wormley took occasion to relieve himself of the arduous duties that fell to his lot as a member of the finance committee of the board which meets several times a month throughout the year and has made demands upon his time and energy. LACK OF SYMPATHY. It is believed here, however, that his resignation is the natural result of his lack of sympathy with the faculty of the dental school, with which he has had long experience. President Mordecai Johnson expressed surprise and regret and said that alumni and the university losing a man who was a valuable asset. He said that he knew that Dr. Wormlieh had been serving two years, three and that he had requested to be relieved of duty before his re-election last year. Dr. Johnson said that, knowing the trustees his alumni had valued upon him to allow his name to be presented to the alumni for re-election. He denied that there was dissatisfaction with the administration involved. LONG TERM REMAINS. Dr. Wormlieh served one three-year term on the board of trustees representing the alumni. He was re-elected in June, 1928, for a second term of three years ending June. He was appointed fifteen months of this term. Dr. Wormley was graduated from Howard dental school in 1900, and was a member of the faculty of the dental institute and apprentice of the dental infirmary for years. DR. EMMETT SCOTT.

WHITE MAN'S RELIGION HAS REPLACED CHRISTIANITY New Cult of Equality for Nordics Only Destroying Christianity as its Very Root Says Preacher. WASHINGTON, D. C. (CNB)—According to Dr. Charles Frere Andrew and his wife, the Indian poet and philosopher, the Christian religion which at its inception stood for an equality of man, has been replaced by the religion of the white man with its tenets of imperial domination and economic exploitation of the poor. We have a religion with its itself Christian but does not acknowledge the ultimate Christian principle of racial equality. This racial wrong is slowly destroying Christ's religion at its very root," says Dr. Andrews in a recent interview. He said the Christian religion at its inception stood for an equality of man. "It was this that made Mahatma Gandhi such a profound believer in the British constitution as the champion of racial freedom," he said. But the pennant swing was a challenge. "It got the peninsula rightly. Equality outside of the white races became a question. What has been called 'the religion of the white race' has taken the place of the Christian religion. This white race religion has with Imperialism been subtly turned into a subly imperialistic the British constitution and has left it today in many parts of the world merely a facade without any substantial background. The spread of white racialism has infested the Christian church. In South Africa, Mahatma Gandhi was refused admission to a Christian church at Christmastide. "Since the World War the racial evil has grown worse and worse. We have suffered terribly in India, where we have had a racial franchise of racial conscription imposed and an unjust color bar act in South Africa. "It is no wonder that the Simon commission to India on which only white men were allowed to sit, is called the 'racial commission.' This commission has different members who have spread a noxious epidemic which shows little sign of abstention." BAPTIST MINISTERS HEAR OF MERGER Another Effort to Bring National Baptist Bodies Together, Is Started. 200TH ANNIVERSARY Celebration Flayed at Meeting of Preachers Monday. Another effort to bring the National Baptist Convention, Incorporated and the National Baptist Convention, Unincorporated, together was discussed at the first meeting of the Baptist Ministers meeting Monday. Delegates back from the two bodies declare that the overtures came from the W. meeting place, of an invitation to hold a joint session of the two bodies next year in Chicago. The Williams convention had already decided on New York as the W. meeting place, but a similar committee to meet with a similar committee from the other body and take up the possibility of a merger. In discussing the manner in which the colored population of Baltimore was eliminated from the anniversary celebration of the 60th birthday of President John F. Kennedy, the ministers pressed their dissatisfaction. "The only way to meet a situation of this kind, is to present a solid front of the ministers in a talk to the body. The Rev. A. J. Green also expressed an opinion of dissatisfaction in the general discussion that followed. The Baptist ministers outing to Bel. Dr. Green was an absolute failure by Dr. Green, who said that even the ministers who voted for the outing there, failed to support it. Only the ministers who attended the gram had been arranged when they arrived. Among the visitors at the meeting Monday were Rev. Gill of Petersburg and Rev. John F. Kennedy, pastor of Zion A.M.E. church Pastors Divide Towards 200th Some Held Special Services, They Baltimore ministers were divided, in their attitude on the race's part, in the celebration of the 200th anniversary of Baltimore, inquiry revealed this week. Special sermons were preached in a few of the churches, but a majority of the ministers made no mention of the affair. The following comments on the affair were made by various ministers: The Rev. C. H. Steptheau, pastor of Bethel A.M.E. church: At first he did mean to ignore, but when he flagged him that Mayor Broening had sent him a letter to the effect that we should and could be represented, he changed his opinion. He parade, Saturday, also helped him feel less hostile to the celebration. "The only reason," said he, "that we were not further represented was that we were not financially liable to the church." The flats, it is said, cost $1500 and over, each. They were mostly made in New York, and thus, it was a hard proposition for us to provide them with the services we were asked to—since we had lived in Baltimore and had contributed to its growth. The Rev. W. W. Allen, pastor of St. Mary's Church: "We held a special service before a group of a thousand people—sermon, choir, and offering. A special prayer was offered up in thanks to these two hundred years from disaster and other serious conditions."

PASTOR FINDS WHITES REPLACING COLORED Big Industries in South are Eliminating Group, Says Dr. C. Y. Trigg. Left $100 by Will of Late Mrs. M. Buchannan. "The employment problem today is not primarily, no work for the worker, but it is industry's demand or safe, sober, more mature, must awaken to this fact, whether we like it or not. It is not enough to be as good a worker as the white man, but we must be a more efficient worker in permanency in industry," declared the Rev. C. Y. Triggs speaking to his congregation Sunday morning. Stating that white workers are gaining replaced coloring in American industry, Dr. Triggs, who has just returned from a conference at Waveland, Miss. pointed out that not only the great industries are affected, but in many cases cities are excluding them even from the most menial labor.

"The most practical way to hold our own," he said, "is to present留 in more efficient service." Metropolitan Gels Legacy In commenting on $100 million in Metropolitan M. E. church recently through the will of the late Mrs. M. Buchanan, Dr. Trig said: "The colored worker has to work in dollars than any other man. It certainly then behoves him to put it to the best possible use during his life and to arrange for its best service after he has passed on. Colleagues, kind of social work furnish excellent fields for bequests rather than allowing life savings to return to the states and to employers who have drawn hours of work when the money of pay, and in the number of our people bank their savings."

President National Baptist Convention (Incorporated) "There should be a Baptist return to meet a similar body from the National Baptist Convention, unincorporated, and the Lost Carey Draw up articles of peace and union." "I do yet believe that the Negro Baptists of the world should somewhere and sometime meet with the Christian body. I do not see how real Christians and true Baptists can cherish anything other than the desire for union, peace, and cooperation." "A careful investigation of our church programs will reveal, I fear that they are ill-adjusted to young life. Their forms of work are not notorious. The church has a distinct work to do. The church must check the reckless divorce craze now sweeping the country, and push up on the Christian ideal of marriage.

Full Social, Racial, Political Equality Demanded NEW YORK, (C.N.S.)-For the tenth time within the last month, Tammany police last night denied the Negro masses the right to hear the message of Communist candidates for election in the present municipal campaign. Rustling, wild-eyed and brutal, into the crowd of Negro and white workers at 137th street and Seventh avenue, the police responded to the Negro candidate the Communist party in the 21st Congressional District, from the platform and arrested him. And as Communist after Communist, defying the police terror, took the platform they were pulled down and placed under arrest. Many of them, including for women speakers in town, were taken At Lenox avenue and 138th street, where another Communist meeting was in process, presses, breaking up the meeting, clubbing the crowd of Negro and white workers and placing under arrest the speakers and candidates who spoke, and the right of communist candidates to campaign among the masses. Viciously clubbing the women workers embassy, the police, and the soldiers could be heard half a block, the Tammany Cossacks smashed the election campaign meetings of the Communist party. On the face of the vicious terrorism of the police, the Communist leaders, Negro and white, rallied the crowd for another meeting at 130th street. Here, too, to such huge proportions, and the mood of the workers was so militant that the police were afraid to attack the workers, nor harassing the workers, the outskirts of the crowd. The meeting was marked with the wildest enthusiasm and clashes and ringing cheers as the white and Negro leaders of the Communist Party outlined the program to mass masses to struggle against high rents, segregation, discrimination, Jim-crowlism, etc., and for full equality—social, political, ra The speakers denounced the police terrorism in Harlem, the beat-up last week of two Negro workers, the shooting of a Negro student in Brooklyn by a policeman in plaid, and objected to two students sitting on the Elevated floor on them to the street to attack them.

Veterans Tears came to the eyes of hundreds of spectators in Portland, Maine, last week as the aged veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic mounted in their sixty-third annual reunion. One can scarcely view without emotion the dwindling ranks of these veterans through whose struggles and sacrifices the union was saved and the curse of slavery removed from our land. Though their numbers have grown pitifully small their accomplishments have loomed large and have increased in significance with the passing years. Thoughts of the reunion of these veterans serves as a reminder of a coming occasion, in many respects of similar import. The Retired Ministers Association, of the Washington Conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, holds an all-day reunion at John Wesley church next Sunday. Its objectives are to teach, fellowship, support and helplessness among all retired ministers, to care for the graves of deceased ministers and in every feasible way, help the effective ministers in their work of advancing the interests of Christ's Kingdom." Dr. N. M. Carroll is the president of the organization. Dr. Daniel W. Hays is secretary and he says that the association would appreciate a word of greeting from the APO-AMERICAN. Here it is: Dr. Carroll has been teaching for sixty-five years. All patients for fifty-seven. Men like these shouldered a musket in defense of the country and served in a four-year campaign. They have done infinitely more. They have put aside personal ambition and embarked upon a lifetime campaign of sacrifice and service. Down the years they go, sixty, seventy, eighty May God give them all still longer time to work and serve; but they may slow down a bit now. A joy it must be to look back upon a life well lived, and look forward to a new world made better and happier by their children. Living to the retirement age of sixty-five is an achievement of itself. The average man can expect to live only fifty-one years. Only fifty out of every hundred persons born can expect to be sixty-five. The Retired Ministers Association is not only a benediction in itself but an inspiration to others. All patients who haven't run down before they have run out. Is shows what we can do if we will guard health, shun late hours, rich food, liquor and health.

Enlightened public opinion in Maryland will eventually wipe the jim-crow车 bill from the statute books. Pending that solution, the electric roads, the steam railways and the steamboats can, if they seek good will, enforce the law only when they find it necessary. A law would not be tolerated. Followers of the Gandhi in the non-resistance movement would simply refuse to obey the jim-crow law and following arrest, would permit themselves to be sent to jail by the hundreds. Another form of Indian protest has been for thousands of natives to stretch upon railroad tracks and thereby halt traffic. No engineer could keep sane and run a train over a thousand and one a mile. Negro hasn't developed mass consciousness and mass solidarity to that extent. One day he will, and when it eventually, he will probably find that mass non-resistance will be as effective in America as it is in India. Meantime, we have only words of appreciation mixed with feelings of envy for Miss Anna Crosston (Cosmith) and Philadelphia school teacher who resigned to be jim-crowed on a Baltimore school bus in an womanly way against the silly law, submitted to arrest, paid her fine and walked out with dignity.

Rogers, AFRC president in Paris, that England is the bulwark of color prejudice, and race hatred in the world. England's 70,000,000 whites, says Rogers, make their living in the sweat of the brows of 400,000,000 Negroes and Indians. Evidences of color hatred uncovered in England by Mr. and Mrs. Robert S. Abbott, of Chicago, seem to indicate that Mr. Rogers and O'Connell are on the right track. Mr. and Mrs. Abbott were barred from thirty hotels in London because of their color, a kind of indignity which they would not meet in Chicago or New York, and a kind to which they were not subjected in Antwerp, Brussels, Berlin, Paris or Amsterdam. Mr. Abbott says that London treated him a Mississippi treats its Negroes. But we are not accustomed to grouping London and Mississippi in the intolerance belt, even though it now appears time to revise our maps. _____ Dr. Pezia O'Connell, vice-president of Morgan College, agrees with Mr. J.

A Qualified "No" The refusal of the sixty-third encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic to hold a joint reunion with veterans of the rebel army was not an absolute and final "No." They qualified it as follows: Reunion of the Blue and the Gray will be considered when the Gray admits that the loss cause was also the false cause. In addition the rebel veterans must put away their flags and colors and march under the banner of Old Glory. Unless and until the men in Gray meet these conditions, the answer of the G.A.R. to an proposal for joint reunion is "No." This isn't the first time that the Confederate vets have sought a joint encampment.

"Vital Things"; Has Hoover Answered? Last March Mr. John R. Hawkins, director of the colored end of the Hoover campaign in the last election, submitted a memorandum of 919 words to the President. Mr. Hawkins said he spoke as "an humble representative of the colored people of America" and that he did not think it improper to call the President's attention to certain "vital things," and urge that he give some consideration to them. That was six months ago—before the President took his oath of office. He was demanding the status of the "vital things" is the same now as it was then. The President has neither by word nor gesture concerned himself with (1) disfranchisement in the South, nor (2) with elimination of the Negro from party councils, nor (3) with racial discrimination in the civil service, nor (4) with segregation in government departments. Mr. Hawkins handed these "vital things," encouched in a 919 word memorandum, to the President in the presence of a delegation of fifty persons. The press announced the "colored voters division" as a permanent part of the Republican national committee. "Mr. Hawkins will have charge. He will be supplied with a budget."

FINLEY THE VICTOR By LULA PHIFER McCALISTER You won the fight so just keep on going. With courage renewed do the best that you can. Try to strengthen the links that to you seem the greatest. For divided you'll fall, but united you'll stand. Deal kindly with those who so strongly opposed you. An act of itself will be positive proof. That the big hearted "Finley," who again has been chosen. Is best man indeed, and the right man in truth. There's certainly no time now for petty divisions or scattering of race-shurting rumors abroad; But the time thieps was learning the lesson of stretching her prophetic hands into God. For trees the most pelted are those that are bearing Rich harvests of fruits that are tempting the way. They shaken and stoned with merciless vigor While others are left unmolested to die. The world is now struggling in great competition. So don't stop on the rounds of the ladder to victory. There are those at the foot who are watching your progress Deal kindly with those who so strongly opposed you. And that of itself will be positive proof, That the big hearted "Finley," who again has been chosen, Is best man indeed, and the right man in truth. There's certainly no time now for petty divisions or scattering of race-hurting rumors abroad; But the time Ethiopia was learning her lesson of stretching her prophile hands unto God. The world is now struggling in great competition, So don't stop on the rounds of life's ladder to grieve; There are faces at the foot who are watching your progress And hoping to get inspiration to leave. The man that knows right, that goes forth to pursue it. Not crippled but bold in manhood's full power, Is the one that the world is certainly watching; And waiting to hail him the man of the hour. Your work of the past is the thing that's unhid- den. But harder to-day and there's no time to stop. So breaden your borders and keep moving forward. With this watchword uplifted, "There's room at the top." For truth crushed to earth will again rise in tumph. And that's how we knew that somehow you'd win. So we've seen you come forth with the stamp of approval. 'Tho' hot was the conflict and hard as it's been. Pace the issues at large with determination. To stick by the job till your part is well done, and rejoice not so much that your fees were defeated. But with humbleness true, thank God that you won!

The morning until dark, the veterans passed sixteen abreast up the famous avenue—black and white mingled, often shoulder to shoulder—my children's grandfather, and probably your father, among them they passed following their old drum corps and their old leaders—Howard, Butler, and others of our true and tried friends and benefactors—I could but contrast, this occasion with the pomp of but few wars. No one in the parade and more others. For every man in that long line had earned a right to be in it—every one had participated in a great war having for its purpose a mobile end, which is true of but few wars. No one in the parade and more others. For a new uniform of this or that club or self-constituted organization. Each one was a hero.

Mr. Editor: To the Editor: Baltimore. Md. To the Editor: "Those who stand on the watch tower on the wall and discern the dust of danger on the distant horizon must not deceive those intermed with false hopes of security. The only way to prepare to meet the storm is to know that it is coming." THE END OF CO-RACIAL POLITICS The conduct of the government without regard to race or color constitutes a construction spirit. For the brief period of eight years, 'equality' was the watchword and rallying cry. Physical difference of race appears as an unconscious background. White and black co-operated on co-equal terms, disclosing neither the superiority complex nor the inferiority complex on the other. Rise of Lily-Whites. The citadel of co-racial politics began to tumble with the capitulation of President Jeb Bush, pronouncing President Taft, Taft, who would not make colored appointments; where such placement was distasteful to the president, and where the second definitive stage in the undoing of the racial "entente-cordiale." The rise of the lily-wise movement fore-shadowed a boom of the former order of things. The recent action of the Republican party in placing at the head of the National Committee that Mr. Negro will white-ride drives the last nail in the coffin. The situation has now become simplified. There is no longer any pretension to co-raciality in the management and control of the party. Mr. Negro has forgotten or ignored all of its ancient traditions. A lily-white may be defined as a Republican, North or South, who does not believe that the Negro has any right to be his bound to respect, if they run counter to his determination to dominate the situation. There is probably only one member in either house of Congress who is a heart of hearts—and that is the black one. The Negro politicians are slow of mind and hesitant of heart to discern and sense the signs of the time. They are riding a dead horse and prodden to prod him on with, then spur. Virginia. Virginia typifies the situation. The key-noter of the recent Republican convention declared that the political and social relations between the races in Virginia were better than in which party succeeded. President Hoover on the following day endorsed the Virginia plan as a model for other Southern States to follow. Both political parties in that commonwealth had a similar control, in the utter elimination of the Negro. Two professors from orthodoxy, Virginia universities have been chosen to head the respective tickets; the governor of Virginia—the Norfolk journal and Guide, the Newport Star, and the Richmond Planet,—are wholly unable to discover any difference in attitude towards the Negro on the ballot. The candidates, Perry Howard, who embodies the last lingering remnants of co-racial political control, has been crucified, is dead and buried; it is only the eternal principle of hope that believes that he will rise again. Congressman DePriest. Oscar DePriest stands out as the antithesis of this lily-white propaganda. And yet, on deeper analysis, he ignores the fact that he demands Negro control of Negro constituencies, whose logical counterpart is white control of white constituencies as well as mixed constituencies. Carried to its logical conclusion, the DePriest dozima would only apply to a few Northern congressional disaffected Negroes, and regated Negro has physical dominance. This could have little or no direct effect on the South or on the general equation of the Republican party. I am describing a condition which I deplore. I do not approve of what I depict but somebody must tell the watcher on the wall and the watcher on the wall and discern the dust of danger on the distant horizon must not deceive those intertwined with false hopes of security. The storm is to know that it is coming. Take Back Seat. The reins of the political band wagon are in lily-white hands. The Negro leaders must either take the back seat, or like Achilles, sulk in the church and Walter Cohen did not attend the lily-white love feast in honor of Chairman Huston. Mrs. Williams, and Mrs. Booze by proxy, looked in the church, sat in, and his silly thoughts were worth many pennies. Professor Hawkins heard of what had taken place the next day, the same as you and I. The simple fact that Mr. Hoover does not pose for photographers, the fact that Cookidge was wont to do, may be suggestive and significant. Hobson's Choice In my last release, I suggested the renomination of Mr. Hoover. I then knew as much about the lily-white trend of things as has subsequently become the official name of the Republican National Committee. Mr. Hoover is indeed a lily-white. But all white Republicans, with the possible exception of Mayor Thompson of Chicago and the Guardia of New York, have been restricted to Hobson's choice. Mr. Hoover is the oldest and most efficient statesman in either party with a social program which means much to the nation, but to the Negro it means most because he needs it most.

Chips from the Quarry In the AFRO'S lesson in English recently, there appeared this sentence (referring to the pronunciation of a word): "The 'u' is pronounced as in 'duke', and not as in 'cut.'" Notes in the sentence quoted, the word "and" may not be classed as definitely erroneous, yet it is superfluous; hence it should be omitted. This superfluous "and" bobs up in many places, among them in sentences like this: In the street and he expects to remain here a few days. Since what follows the word "and" adds nothing to "street" or to "saw", it should be omitted. He expects, etc., to superfluous "ands", appear constantly in the writings of the untrained. They seem to be due to a hang-over from childhood days when we would write an entire essay in one long compound sentence made up of statements tied together by "ands." But the most flagrant misuse of "and" is in combination with "who" and "which"; for example: "The police say that he is a bad man, and he will be likely to commit" etc., or this: "It is the latest book on the subject and which is by far the most interesting," etc. These "and who" and "and which" forms are met with frequently, are met with so obviously wrong that it seems unnecessary to point out where the wrongness lies. There are, however, authorities who approve the employment of these "and who" and "and which" forms in certain cases, all the examples given, be they constructional, but the distinctions which these grammaticians make between the permissible and the non-permissible cases are not all clearly defined, AND inasmuch as the proffessor is usually expected to determine the permissibility and the permissible his eye, he would be thankful if the debatable forms were avoided altogether. F. H. M. M P.S.-Those who wish to pursue the matter will find it pretty fully discussed and understood by their brothers. The book is published in England, but may be seen in the most of our larger public libraries. A Sample Brisbanality Arthur Brisane, who writes the "Today" column in the Hearst newspapers, is one of the few persons who seems to feel himself able to write authoritatively on every imaginable subject. He is immute, unquailable superiority of the Caucasian peoples. Scarcely a day passes that he does not take a sneering or belittling fling at Negroes, Chinese, or some of the peoples that he regards as inferiors—including, occasionally, even the Japanese. Days ago he was solemnly warning the Arabs not to resist the enchancements on their liberties by Great Britain, until they (the Arabs) had an ample supply of machine guns, airplanes and poison gases.

Hooveritis The standing order at the White House is to set the table for six at luncheon. President Hoover has had many occasions since he has been at the White House. President Hoover's car got stuck in the mud, and Mr. Hoover recently, and was pulled out by a team of mules. A wait out in Jacksonville, Ill., commenting, declared, "This is the second time the Democrats have pulled the Hoover through." The Hoovers get 800 letters every day. The president, of course, does not open the mail. He does when clerks and secretaries, who go over it, sort it and make record of it. Most of the requests are responded to by polite secretaries who say, "The President is sorry, but he says, 'no!' Despite the sit in in Washington, and the fact that President Hoover gets away whenever he can to his summer camp in Virginia, the White House has had nearly three hundred meetings nearly two hundred curious folk to come inside the gates every day, in including Sunday, to get an idea of now their president lives. Yet President Hoover doesn't get all the visitors. Rarely a day but what one thousand persons are elevated to the top of Washington mon 25th Infantryman Who Cussed Out Roosevelt. The Bullet, official weekly of the Bullet, tells this unusual Roscoe story. 14 goes back to the days of 1898 when Theodore Roosevelt was leading the Rough Riders in Cuba, years old, of Apache Junction, and now a member of the 25th Infantry, was during the Spanish-American war, attaching a messenger interpreter to the Second Army in Cuba. Thompson, finding food scare, broke into a captured store and stole flour enough to make himself some flap-jacks, which the soldiers called spies. He hid them behind his "pup" on a road intersection. Later a man with glasses and whom on account of his general appearance spied Thompson's flap-jacks and appropriated them. Coming across the field, Thompson berated him in language that is unprintable. "The officer offered him ten dollars in gold for his food but that only served to make Thompson cuss the louder. Thompson came to Washington in an attempt to obtain a commission in the Philippine scouts. Through his friend, Senator Spooner. Thompson was taken to the White House and introduced to the leadership of a man who had fought within in Cuba. No sooner was the introduction over than Roosevelt, cocking his head to the sky, didn't say, "Where were you on the morning of the 24th of June?" "Sir, I was camped on the side of the road leading to Saboney." "Sir, you remember somebody stealing your backpacks?" "Yes sir." "Do you remember cussing me out for stalking them?" The answer was a startled, "No, sir. I never cussed out the President of the United States in my life." The answer brought a roar of laughter from Roosevelt. His body bears 11 wounds, a dozen bones and many arrows and spear wounds. Birthdays SEETEMBER 211t: Joseph D. Bibb, 38, 46, P. Holly, 64, 400 Fourth street, W. Palm Beach, Fla.; William H.

With the appointment of Claudius Huston of Tennessee as chairman, of the National Republican Committee and the definite designation of Dr. John R. Hawkins and Dr. Emmett J. Scott as heads of the Colored division, there can be no mistaking the fact that the eminent name and group relation to the Republican party has come. So far as party councils are concerned, Benjamin J. Davis are gone, and Walter L. Cohen and Robert R. Church, others of the "Big Four" have been relegated to minor roles, for the purposes. But what is more far-reaching and significant is the scrapping of the machinery through which the colored group has functioned in the past. It must be evident to him that he has been H. H. his associates have settled on a policy of denaturing Negro leadership in the South and building up an organization dominated by those roles in the white world for a white, black Republican. If there is any other reasonable and logical conclusion to be formed as to the Hoover aims, this has been proved, now not concientiously put them forward after the Huston election to the head of the party for the next four years. The question is now that we know it, what will we do about it and what will it mean to the group? We had just as well be frank and admit that for the last twenty-five years our own political leaders in the South have not sought to build voting centers in keeping expands their role in keeping a skeleton organization composed entirely of men and women personally interested either in jobs or a few dollars every week he had their own through connections at Washington rather than through building a formidable voting clientele back home whose voices would have to be heard. IF THEY HAD TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF THEIR LEADERSHIP AND ORGANIZED THE MASSES OF THE RACE VOTERS THEY HAD HAS BEEN SO SASILY ELIMINATED. Robert R. Church has come nearer to doing this than the rest, and for this reason he looms as the most obstinate problem of the big four. But even Church is too much likely to be feared by the powers that he And herein, perhaps, is the key to the situation. The swing to the Republican party in the South may have an indirect good reaction for the group, for it may bring into the political arena a new type of leadership, even to oppose the party in the South, and the masses and organize their voting strength back home. The Republican party could not kick out of the party councils without kicking a goodly part of the voting West out, and herein lay their strength. They who mingle with the rank and file of race voters and non-voters know that there are hundreds of thousands of men and women anxiously waiting to be set action by such leaders don’t have the chance to come from the Republican, Democratic, Socialist or Communist parties, and if such leaders arise they won’t give hang or party regularity but will fight for an indirect any banner fighting the enemy. They won't be checked off before the measures and men become definitely decided and their strength will come from a well organized beater rather than an order-giving apex. It is my bet that the shifting of Republican to Democratic support on the part of the Negro and the shifting of Democrat to Republican in the part of the whites, which is the evident aim of Hoover, will have a good effect, even if indirect. Where Does Your Luck Come From? George Simmons, good plasterer and church member, told this writer that his best "numbers" luck came from taking his tip from the pastor he gave out in church each Sunday. Playing the "numbers" of course, is no sure way to demonstrate the existence of that whimsical thing called "luck," nevertheless but few us realize to what extent chance weaves itself about human destinies. There are of course certain definite roads to success or failure in the job, but there are either road without meeting here and there some elements of chance, or who will not remember some moment in their lives when purpose is to halt or accelerate their curse. John Ferbry, life-tiermer in the Maryland penitentiary, once told this writer that his one bad break was his "luck" to have quit his job. He said that man was found murdered. He is innocent, he says, and this one "break" may be the cause of an innocent. He said that man's life behind prison bars. A friend who attributes his success to his unusually helpful wife, says that he met her first by mere chance on a railway train to New York, but for the fact that she stumbled under a load of luggage she was carrying and he came to her distance. To him that was how he learned to toil, the who course of his life and hers. Julia Peterkin, in her "Scarlet Sister Mary," names one of the latter's babies "Unex." from the fact that it was "unexempt" from the man's punishment in marble halls does fate play games of chance with Human lives and destinies. Kings or paupers—we are all luck spies of chance, and luck drops a silver spoon or iron cross blindly here and there. Don't depend upon "luck," of course, either good or bad; but it may not be a bad idea if you know the paths where good luck is more likely to mass and as far as possible away from where bad luck hovers.

Mr. Pickens, has recently return from a tour of European countr The text of the statement was follows: The recent experiences of Rob- S. Abbott with the hotels of Lond were not unexpected. I talked over t matter with some German friends Berlin, where a black man is rea see. Abbott was staying at one the finest hotels there. The hotel between London a Berlin was very great—and evi Paris was found to be slightly in in spots at least, with the Ameri color-polish.

Just as effective in the more serious suffering from neuralgia, neuritis, rheumatism or lumbago. No ache or pain is ever too deep-seated for Bayer Aspirin to relieve, and it does not affect the heart. All druggists, with proven directions for various uses which many people have found invaluable in the relief of pain. ASPIRIN the dark races of the world fought on the side of England and against Germany during the World War. England had more 'colored troops' an any other nation: now London least, is threatening to rank next in the list of countries in scrimination—barring only that dribble corner of the earth called South Africa. The two great Anglophones may fall in common this principle. "And strangely enough, next to attain if the war had lasted longer than it did, the Germans have been able to muster perhaps the greatest force of colored fighters against the Germans and Austrians. It is another place where there are a color-maniacs. It seems that col- lorism is hardest, by those whom they have In Frankfort "When a black man gets off the train at the great railway station in Frankfurt in Germany, he looks across the great circling plaza ringed out by twenty or thirty hotels, which comes to fit his pocket-book best and goes on in, registers, and goes toEd. When a black man reaches London on today, he telephones a friend and asks what hotel, if any, he may opt at. It is somewhat like arrival in the city. "There will be no need for American Negroes to go to London, if that condition obtains—for they already now all about such things without ravelling overseas to learn them. "Every American Negro is old, and he is not like the lie about all space taken, "very sorry, but there is some mistake, etc. These hackey lies fall very ungrACEfully from the proud Britsher, who boasts of his superiority to Americans and to things American. After all, American men are not better than American lies. English Ships "British ship officers are also practicing this same low diplomacy of lies. They have 'switched' colored passengers' cabin rooms, all of whom are high seas, saying that 'the office has made some mistake', and that said stateroom was already occupied. It is noticeable that such colored people are in the room desirable than the one about which the 'mistake' was made. "If such a lie was ever told by a ship steward on a French or German or Swedish ship. Perhaps colored people will find it better to spend their money on the ships of other nations, and let the British haul other white folks. "If a consumer concentrates his buying by the ship, perhaps colored people too come anyway. It may seem that a great ship company will not miss a two hundred or three hundred dollar fare. That is a mistake: everything is missed. British season is longer and August is not seem to miss it, but in the other lean months of travel when all ships are carrying many empty cabins, every dollar will be missed. And colored people, of different races, are travelling all Jim Crowed Indians "People from India and other dark-skinned travelers are accorded the same unfair treatment by British ships and hotels. It looks ridiculous to see the steward man at the same table, often an aggregation of people who have nothing in common except skin-color. When you see colored and white at the same table in a British ship dining salon, they are of the same party and demanded seated together, as often happens. Active Slaver "What wonder? The British were among the most active slavers of the world, and among the first of their time to enslave people—and these people were the ones who despise these from whom we steal and whom we cheat."

"Never before in the history of my political career have the women of the race rallied to the cause with so much spontanity," said Mrs. Lenn Trent Gordon. "Never before have they demonstrated their power, and have awakened to the power of the franchise! Hand-in-hand they come...many of them out of sections alone come out, and many of them out of sections alone come out, and many of them out of sections alone come out, and for the purpose of exercising their inalienable right to select those among the candidates whom they deem the best fitted represent them, and to fight for their interests." "It is encouraging to know, that no matter what the outcome in the bitter fight, we are in the right suit of this vigorous campaigning, we have won the support of the women in thirty-seven states, and we are into one solid organization to stand one hundred per cent behind the Republican league. This group, in all probability may be the most powerful Colored Women's Republican league." County President. Mrs. Charlotte B. Smith, president of the organization, and Dr. David deident of the Pennsylvania State Federation of Women's clubs, entered the headquarters of the organization this juncture, and most willingly made this statement as to her reactions: "The Negroes have had to perfect a real Republican organization.

The opening night of a musical comedy production marks the culmination of many weeks of NDAY—TUESDAY—WEDNE RNER BROS prex The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, September 21, 1929 gruelling work and nervous strain for all—the business organization of the company, the cast, and most of all the pretty little man, whose svelt letters and graceful dances evoke essence and character to the show. It is the diminutive bit of femininity known as the milady chorus girl, upon whom the burden griet that is so heavy. For many weeks these chorus girls have struggled against the human instinct to err in order to become personified precision in the dance steps, marches, the songs, the exits, the sounds which they must go in future performances. Behold the choreist for just what she is, without the traditional idea that she is but a sublimated gold digger. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. A popular concession of the majority of the girls who trip the merry, merry toe to the daily entertainment of tired business men, and many others not nearly so imbued with business, nor so tired that they are tired enough to make up for all on an opening night (for have they not walked, run,舞 and ambled through nerve wrecking numbers until every bone in 1930 their supple bodies ached?). A tabloid show has from four to ten numbers. The larger productions—those of standard two hour ESDAY resent 3 DAYS UNAN SHOULD A GIRL DO AS A MAN DOES? TEMPESTUOUSLOVEANGLES A Great Picture with Big Stars! and twenty minute duration—include between sixteen and twenty-two songs and medleys with at least two swing steps. Each of these requires a routine of dance steps that runs from half a dozen different cross-leg movements to as many as fifty different dance steps. A well-seasoned choreist working under a dance director with experience, many of these steps are simple; but others are complex—practice, and previous seasons of hard work have riveted the routine of many dances upon their minds, and habit has bestowed a name to their dance technique, and previous competent handle by which one might grasp them. However, the cry of theatre patrons for something new compels the dance instructor to different arrangement of dance steps for his every new production; and it is the chorister upon whom the burden of accomplishing these tasks is the critical first nighter's judgment, may find himself with a bonus for his work in thinking, but the poor girls who have executed them so faithfully as to create that happy judgment, keep right on doing it while the show lasts, and then go back to that with which the show started. It is the girl who pays this time in energy. In response to the "call" published in the paper following up the tip passed by word of mouth around the district where show folks live, move and have their being when "at liberty," the office or office of the producer or director. Those holding promise, according to the judgment of that worthy, are instructed to report to the office or office of the producer or director on a specified day. On that day, with little preliminary explanation, all present are placed in line, ships of paper carrying number are passed out and the vocal director, a pianist, plays the first piece. The director, if he is a young man, executes what the regars as a number of stairs is, the number. If age has endowed him with too much surplus fat for that activity, or if rheumatism or some such similar alliment is his master, a girl is given an intensive master class in the number and she becomes the model for the others. As they dance, the girls are carefully looked over by manager and stage manager, the girls are called aside and asked for their names, addresses and telephone numbers. Some are instructed to return to the hall the next day; others are told they are far as that particular show is concerned, the latter group are done for. They go away knowing that the little fiction about being sent for is by a polite way of closing up a show by a "polite notice" and is so understood. Back of this move has been some discerning observations by some persons very close to the shop. Choresters must meet rigid requirements. They must have, to be perfect, beauty of face and body, must have gracieux movements, must have a shapely well and be possessed of a personality expressive of vivacity, flippancy, or whatever you have that arrests the attention of the baldheaded "every-nighters" in the front row of almost any musical T.

The scant wardrobe of the public permits none of the more tricks so helpful to the more proxic of the other professions. The first weeding over, those left, with the replacements of the next day, set about learning the long time song of times past, and the piano running the score listening to technical descriptions of musical effects usually delivered by musical directive. A process is necessary to the chorus to the rhythm of the number. Musical directors are hired to direct, and direct they do, even if a child is not present. Their mind is hardly capable of holding another single instruction from the Simon Legrate of musical comedy. A week of this series girls who have been trained—usually charged with some musical education—and their while health into a draughty hall, are ready to begin with the principals, who up to now had—usually charged with some musical education or not present at all.

In either event, the ponies pay the price. If the irate, principal won her point, the girls learned how to perform the performer who has reached the stage of doing a number with choral support knows a lot of ways of venting her spleen upon those whom she judges to undoing. "If the stage manager thinks more of the chorus than he does of me, I will show them that I don't share his opinion," would be the words of such a capita, or her mind. And often she does. Two, three, perhaps four weeks of this grief passes slowly into memory, depending on the person's preferred houses, more time and a greater effort to attain perfection obtains. The profits at stakes are greater. Hence the time and Then comes the day of ordering shoes and trying on costumes; these apprehension sets are set for lots. Each girl is given a set for each number she is expected to take part in. Once tried on and fitted by a waxy dress, the needs of the individual as occasion requires, the set is bundled up and henceforth goes to and from one place, so long as she remains with the show. These costumes and shoes wear out rapidly under the strain of two hours nightly. No salaries are paid for these days and nights of rehearsal, that one will remain with the show, and rehearsals have advanced far enough to confirm that small amortals just enough for mere sustenance. This is charged against the payrolls to be and, some of them, begun its season, the girls receive Merancholy "Tm Melancholy, Blue for You," Walls Josephine Hall from the Cotton club in New York, and listeners over the Columbia Broadcasting System weep with her. just enough to pay their current expenses, while the management rehearses the advances made during rehearsals. For all this the chorus girl receive from $18.00 to $45.00 per week. Some on my behalf must be called for additional choral talent, but the requirements are exacting and such openings are few. The majority are from Monday, if the "ghost walks" at all. Costumes are supplied, transportation is paid, and that is all they have provided. In addition, additional rehearsals every time a new member is added to the cast or chorus; or when the producer may determine to change an old song or different one in any spot in the show. This routine of hard work is perhaps the greatest refutation of the blase stories one so often hears concerning the ladies in the army for the easy road that "gold digging" connotes would work as hard as these little ladies do for the "eagre reward" that comes to them. They are first real devotees to the art of the soldier; they are honest-to-godness working people. Don't misjudge the choreist. She is a bit worldly wise. So is every other person who has the benefit of travel and contact with people who are decent sort of being who works and saves our surplus. She anticipates the tricks of men. capitalizes them for such benefits as a dinner, a present or two; and the calls to the general or "John"—wondering just how she lipped out with the excuse of a headache, a rehearsal, or early train, just when he would have bet his last dollar that he had made a bet. She may seem "hard boiled" but have you ever seen a benefit for charity that was not made worth while by the presence of all the show girls in town, some working, but most of them among their number who was suffering misfortune; or that you might have seen some of the ever recurring instances of self sacrifice that a fellow thesaurus had of need.

Mrs. Beauil Mitchell Hill, Friday. The most interesting part of his program became a group of African war and play songs, composed and arranged by Mr. Paris, in which he soulsonged with the music acts as example in the war song, the main reach of the tom-tom, calling the warriors, the atmosphere of busy preparation, and the majesty of the king or tribal leader, issuing orders and calling for help.

Writer Declares that Servants Were First to Get Screen Parts. Stepin Fetchit, Carolyn Snow- den, are Cited. By GÉALDEN DISMOND By GERALDYN DISMOND The Negro entered the movies through a back door, labelled "servants' entrance," but he accepted the parts assigned him, made good, and opened the door for bigger things. Bootblack Worked Way Up Oscar Smith, who came to the Paramount Studios nine years ago as the personal servant of Wallace Reid, and at present owns the boot-black stand at the studio, has worked in two hundred pictures and has recently received a contract exclusively for the series *Siphe Fetich*, who is billed as the star in the William Fox all-talkie "Hearts in Dixie," was the porter on the Fox lots. Carolyn Snowden, who played opposite Fetich in "In Old Kentucky Days," was also a lady's maid for a prominent star. Sunshine Sammy As for the exceptions, they were for the most part African chiefs and the members of their tribes. One, however, I do not recall from my first experiences with movies. He is Noble Johnson, of whom practically nothing is heard now in connection with Negroes. The last time I saw him, he was playing the part of a Mexican bandit, and rumor has it that he owns considerable stock in the company for which he works and is used for all parts calling for a swarthy skin. The other two unusual individuals are Sunshine Sammy and Farina, a close second. Talkies Aided Race It is significant that with the coming of talkies, the first all-Negro feature pictures were attempted by the big companies. White America has always made much of the fact that all Negroes can sing and dance. The movie of yesterday, to be sure, let him dance, but his greatest charm was lost by silence. With the talkie, the Negro is at his best, and no one who has seen "Hearts in Dixie" or Al Christie's "Melancholy Dane" will disagree with the assertion that the Negro's voice can be a thing of beauty in spite of the mechanics of this new venture in the art of the movies. Three By-Products Three by-products have resulted from this slow recognition of the Negro as movie material—Negro film corporations, Negro and white film corporations, and white corporations, all for the production of Negro pictures. They have the same motives, namely, to present Negro films about and for Negroes, showing them not as fools and servants, but as human beings with the same emotions, desires and weaknesses as other people; and to share in the profits of this great industry. FECHIT IN "BIG TIME" NEW YORK—Stepin Fecht, who created many a laugh in "Hearts in Dixie," "Fox Movietone Follies" and "The Ghost Talks," returned to New York City in "Big Time" which played the Royx Theatre, and did his bit toward making this production a cooking good entertainment. The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, September 21, 1929 4 whom rumor had as dead of pneumonia out on the Pacific Coast, some time ago, proved to New York that she's still very much alive by appearing at the Lafayette theatre in her specialty toe dance. No signs of death here, eh? CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — The T.O.B.A.T. circuit has more than eighteen shows out and the reports from the houses over the circuit have been better than 70 per cent over the whole. Producers and managers of the shows are awakening to the absolute necessity of having something to offer with good costumes and scenery. They realize that the day is past when three or four people who are well-known to the managers, surround themselves with a few untrained girls, a lot of aided and soiled costumes, sing a song a year old, and dance a few steps and get away with it to a profit. "Beans" and Sue Hit "Butterbeans and Susie," the well-known record and burlesque stage, after a successful week at Booker Washington theatre, St. Louis, played the Walker theatre, last week, with the same big success. Manager Ruby O'Brien says he will welcome any show of the "Beans and Susie" type back to the Walker theatre at any time. NBA wn The Best and THURSDAY, Sept. 26— R and SEE!

With the acquisition of these two houses, Mr. Starr becomes the sole owner of the largest circuit of colored theatres in the country. Both of these theatres have been de-recorded in the latest style and are now operating with a combination policy of silent and sound pictures. Negotiations are started for two additional theories. national is the Vive President of the Theatre Owners Booking Association In Broadway Show NEW YORK—Ernest Hunter, Harlem play-boy and member of the popular 4-F Club, is playing in George M.

Stage Shows and Pictures at Reopening at 50 cents Top WASHINGTON, D.C.—After a trial of two weeks of presenting Broadway hits at a top admission price of $1, the Howard Theatre closed its doors after the performance Sunday night for the installation of moving picture talking equipment. Rutus G. Elys, supervising manager of the Holtman Theatres, stated that the Howard would remain closed until the talking installation is completed. He estimated that it will require three or four weeks to make the installation. When the Howard reopens, he said, it will return to its former policy of stage presentations and moving pictures at a top admission price of 50 cents. While the installation is being made the Howardettes and the Howard Theatre orchestra will be presented in a four floor show at the Lincoln Colonnade. The shows will be staged by Addison Carey, who will also stage the presentations at the Howard when it reopens. "PORGY" RE-OPENS FOR BROADWAY RUN NEW YORK—Because the play is by way of being a theatrical landmark, the Theatre Guild has brought "Porgy" back to New York City once more for a four week's engagement at the Martin Beck theatre. From New York it will again start traveling, this time to the Pacific Coast and into the west. Already it has been shown in New York for four full weeks, three months in Chicago and many weeks in other major cities of the land. A play about colored people, played by an all-colored cast and illuminated by the richness of their singing and the thenticity of their tragedy and success, it has achieved announced success, the original cast, startling Friday with the original cast, starring Jack Carter, Percy Wrywayne and others.

Late songs, current comedy and clever dancing helped to make this show one of the biggest of its kind in recent years. Van Epps and Beattie are singing, talking and dancing; the Grant brothers, tap artists; Mattie Brown, premier songbird from St. Louis; Billie Gunn, Henry Williams, and Sue Parker, singers; Edna Young, a clever toe dancer; and Wattle Hedgeman, dancer, were among the cast whose performances scored with the audiences. By special request, the same company will be seen next week at the show in their new show, "Loose Feet Fallies." Cleo Mitchell, noted star, will play the feature folls.

Concert Manager Claims Prior Contract NEW YORK—Paul Robeson, actor and singer will make a concert tour of America late this year, according to F. C. Coppicus, concert manager, who returned last night on the Cosulitch liner Saturnula after a vacation abroad. Coppicus said Robeson had signed an exclusive long-term contract with him and denied the statement by Maurice Brown last Friday, that the popular star of "Show Boat" and "Porgy" would appear abroad in "Othello." He said the contract had been in force since June and was surprised when told of Browne's announcement. Remember, Robeson was suspended for one month by the Actors' Equity Association for an alleged breach of contract with Mrs. Caroline Dudley Reagan, white, who said that the actor, instead of appearing in a musical revue which she had planned to build around him, went off on a European concert tour. Upon Robeson's plea he was later reinstated. 2,000 Hear Fletcher Henderson KANSAS CITY, MO.—Two thousand persons turned out to hear Fletcher Henderson and his band, here. Thursday.

MOTHER PRESENT Doctor Was Charged With being Father of Child. Dr. Chalmers Hairston, local dentist, is not the father of the two-month old child of Miss Rosalea Young, 16-year-old dental patient, Judge Stein decided in criminal court, Monday. Following what was regarded by the court as lack of evidence, Dr. Hairston was found not guilty after the girl, her mother and the doctor told their versions of the affair on the witness stand. Girl's Story According to the testimony of Miss Young, on September 12, in company with her mother she went to the office of Dr. Hairston to have a tooth treated. While her mother sat in the outer room, she said, Dr. Hairston forcibly compelled her a sumbit to his advances. Mother's Testimony In her testimony the mother declared that the girl emerged from the dental operating room crying and all wrought up. But she admitted that the young woman did not at that time tell her of the alleged attack. It was only after her condition became evident, she said, that the girl named Dr. Hairston as responsible. Doctor Testifies In his own defense, Dr. Hairston stated that the girl, in company with her mother, came to his office. While her mother sat just out of the dental operating room in the waiting room, he said, he attempted to extract a tooth. The pain frightened the girl and she jumped from the chair, breaking it off. She and her mother came back later, she said COLUMBIA COLUMBIA RADIO Model C-11 Price $155 You will also enjoy heart Columbia UMBIA RA "Magic BIBIA RADIO tel C-11 e $155 to enjoy hearing the marvel umbia-Kol You will also enjoy hearing the marvelous new RADIO PHONOGRAPH A radio one second!

WASHINGTON, D.C. — (CNS.)— Negrases are gradually being eliminated from so-called traditional occupations in Washington. In the past month two well-established barber shops which for years have prided themselves upon the faultless service of their colored barbers, are now advertising that they have changed to Nordics. Similarly Negro waiters, doormen and bell-hops, who at one time were employed in all of the first class hotels of the city, are seldom seen in any capacity. They have been replaced by foreigners. The excuses given by the white proprietors and managements for this change are numerous. The favorite excuse is the charge of lack of dependability. One hotel manager says that he knew the time that no better service could be had anywhere than that given by his colored help. He claims that they have become lax in recent years and refused to take suggestions, often reminding him that they have served some of the "finest white folks in the world," and he has to let them go. Another excuse given by the managers is that the colored workers fail to take their work seriously, while the foreign help has dignified the work and raised the standards of the "profession." But all of these harsh criticisms fail to cloak the prejudice which is growing by leaps and bounds in the Capital of the Nation.

Lawyer Payne is Trustee and Past Exalted Ruler Pride of Baltimore Elks and was much in evidence as one of the tested friends and confidential advisors of J. Finley Wilson, during Elks Convention in Atlantic City. It is conceded that Payne's work all over the Convention, around the throne, in the several caucus meetings was of inestimable value in re-electing J. Finley Wilson. Chicago is obligated to Baltimore for the election of James T. Copper, as Grand Auditor. The writer was present in caucus meeting when J. Howard Payne as one of the leading spirits first grasped the hand of Copper and promised him support. Lawyer Payne arose in the Convention platform before that vast conclave of Elks Delegates from all over the world and in a short but spirited speech seconded the nomination of John M.

Please send a stamped, self-addressed envelope. A personal reply, please send 12 THE original Australian aboriginal, who first made a boomerang, deserves a place in the history of the race equal to that held by the greatest modern scientist, for he discovered a new principle in mechanics, which has had a most far-reaching effect. The point of a boomerang brings into play an extraordinary manifestation of natural force. A boomerang thrown by the hand of a skillful expert, in a flat line at the start, does not eventually describe the shape of the ground, that a rifle shot does. The boomerang starts in a horizontal line and curves upwards, not downwards, to a height proportioned to the initial energy supplies to the boomerang. Its maximum height, as it does when the initial propelling energy is spent, the boomerang does not descend in a vertical line. It comes back again toward the thrower, the boomerang come back again to his feet, or over his head. if he wishes it. The whole secret of the curious business is that the surface of the boomerang is not towards the slight angle from the horizon. As this angled surface impinges on the air, a lifting action takes place, which has exactly the same effect as if a strong wind were blowing upwards against the small air produces just the same lifting effect as if a whirlwind were howling directly under the flying instrument. What the boomerang was originally made for, no one knows, is the boomerang throwing from part of the "corroboroes" at tribal gatherings, but this instrument was not used by any aboriginal tribe, either as a hunting weapon, or as a weapon of war. The originals of the west coast of South Australia fifty years or more ago, were "expert boomerang throwers." THE BOOMERANG and this instrument was highly prized by them, but for hunting purposes they used either the heavy handed spear, propelled by a womensh, or a straight malee waddy, about two feet long, and an inch thick. These spears, waddies, and boomerangs were all fire-hardened, by being plastered with grease and gaked in hot water. These natives used to organize game drives, in which boomerang throwing was essential to the successful hunter. Boomerangs throwing is an art, and a rather difficult one. It was once thought that only an Australian native could properly manipulate the querely shaped piece of wood, which may be a toy, or aAccurate, and deadly weapon. It now known that this is unique. Numerous white men Julia Jerome A mother down in "Deep Dixie wants advice this week. Dear Mrs. Jerome: I have kept my daughter very innocent of life and its worst side, but now she is engaged to be married and I wonder if I should not tell her a few things to prepare her for all that is to come. ANXIOUS PARENT. My dear lady, you've probably already ruined your daughter's life by your careful silence on matters of sex. For I assume that by the "worst side of life" you mean just that. When you tell her now just before marriage will she shook her. Sex facts should be frankly but casually and gradually communicated to youngsters, both girls and boys. To keep girl innocent of life is the important function of life until her wedding day then to "spill" it all at once as if it were a horrible secret, is an almost criminal procedure. Don't try to tell her anything now you would do it badly, let her husband tell her. Get her some books and tell her. Get her some books and tell her to speak frankly from the first to her as she have failed to do. If you are marrying her to a sanctioned wife, you will probably be unaware the rest of her life. I do not see how a mother can consider sex ugly when it is the foundation of life. Almighty took all this in consideration when he formed men and women. And it is not seemingly that we should call His work ugly. In Massachusetts, due to the effect of Charles Summer and Wendell Phillip in schools was abolished in 1855. are expert boomerang throwers. A famous Australian soldier used to ex- in this pastime, and doubtless still retains the "knack." Not many years ago there lived at a school where a man who had spent days studying the throwing methods of the West Australian natives. And he became an expert himself. He made the boomerang perform the most intricate dance of the strength was not required. Everything depended upon the manner of presentation, delivery and release of the boomerang. He disclaimed any particular difficulty in throwing, remarking that it was entirely a matter of practice. There are two forms of Australian boomerang, the "returning" and the "non-returning." The latter is the war boomerang—as used by certain tribes. In an article in the Australian Museum Magazine, Wm. W. Thorpe gives many interesting facts concerning these weapons. "To the casual mind," Mr. Thorpe writes, "all boomerangs seem more or less alike, yet on closer acquaintances in degree of curvature, weight and size." Boomerangs from the Queensland coast are a bit different in shape from those of the western state, and the boomerangs are from New South Wales, some writers declare, vary from those of Central Australian tribes; the heavy type, however, has a wide range in the interior. Cook, who discovered Australia, refers to the boomerang thus: "All of them (the Botany Bay, New South Wales, natives) were armed with long pikes (spears), and a wooded shape like a tree (the short-sided sword affected by the Turks)." The natives are particularly careful in the choice of wood from which they fashion boomerangs. They see that the contour of the weapon, that possesses a flat, and also a convex side, and that it has the necessary degree of curvature. The maximum forward distance that the returning boomerang can cover is about forty yards. Mr. Thorpe as about one hundred and fifty yards. The returning boomerang is as typically Australian, as the Kangaroo and the Emu. No of the native species that possess this particular variety of weapon, although a curved throwing-stick was employed by the primitive inhabitants of ancient Egypt, for bringing down water-fowl, and so a so-called fowl-fill will still be among the aboriginal people of India. There is a great deal of misconception, even among Australians, regarding the use of the boomerang. Most people believe that all boomerangs, when they skillfully throw, are skillfully thrown. Although all boomerangs are more or less curved, the heavy war boomerangs, used in tribal fights and for hunting among some tribes, are not designed to come back to the hand of a warrior, but rather than the come-back variety, and like these, have one flat and one curved surface. Owing to their shape, their flight through the air is not in a Tennessee PARIS, TENNESSEE PARIS, Tenn.-The Parent-Teachers' association was held Friday, evening, at the Nationalville, delivered the address.

In his leisure moments, the native of the Far North, is fond of carrying orate designs on his war boomerangs. The execution of some of these carvings, displays a high degree of skill. With the exception of boomers used only on ceremonial occasions, the flat side is never carved, as to do so might interfere with the flight of the weapon. Frequently they are fantastically painted with different colored pigments. But this is only the case when some big tribal gathering is in progress. One authority declares that the boomerang which returns to the hand that throws it, is not used in war. He says it is purely a weapon of the flocks of birds when effective against flocks of birds when flying. The method of using it is interesting. A lagoon is selected, upon which a thousand or more ducks may be peacefully resting. One, or two, of the ducks approach in stealthy. When close to the edge of the water they rush forward, shouting and yelling, and at the same time, a boomerang is hurled as though aimed almost directly at the water. The ducks move along the surface of the water, and the startled ducks, believing they are surrounded by enemies, have no option but to rise straight up in the air. As though it were endowed with some devilish instinct, the boomerang also rises in swirling spiral contortions, tearing in and out among the terrified birds, which, possibly, with the idea that there is safety in numbers, keep close together. A single boomerang will sometimes bring down a dozen or more birds. Much the same procedure is followed when cockatoos or galah (parrots) are the game sought, except that the birds come to a tree-tops, instead of from the water. To attempt to bring down large game, such as kangaros, wallabies, and emus, with a come-back boomerang, would be as rattle as going through a hole, and is never attempted by the Australian native. A tremendous amount of nonsense has been written about the extraordinary skill, with which the aboriginal man can throw a boomerang. It has been stated that a skilled thrower will hurl a boomerang and make it return and break a bottle at his feet. Anyone backing the bottle, would be a winner every time. The boomerang can merely the million to one chance. Given favorable conditions, a good thrower can make his boomerang return close to the spot from which he threw it. A hunter in which the idea of a weapon, such as the boomerang, came to a race so low down in the scale of humanity as the Australian aboriginal, has long puzzled investigators. Some believe it was accidental while throwing the boomerang, but is suggested by the spiral course a gum-leaf follows, when falling to the ground.

NE of my readers has written: in me asking just what to do for a double chin. She says, "I think I am really pretty good looking. When some of my friends ask what I look in the glass I just turn sick when I see that double chin I have been getting. I am a long way from being an adult, and I do hope to see you, and tell me how to eek rid of it." That's easy. Miss Double Chin—for you, and for all the other double chins who read this course, you need a double chin whenever you go to the mirror it is high time that you do something to get rid of it. As this is very easy, you need not fear that you can in the first place get a basin of very hot water. It should be as hot as you can bear. Wring from this basin, and then press it against the flesh, do not have them, use part of a turkish towel. Fold the steaming cloth into a pad and hold under your chin, pressing it against the flesh, and scall, but it should be as warm you can bear comfortably. Change as the cloth cool. Do this for about five minutes. Then, placing your thumb on the thumbs together directly under the point or center of your chin. Now with a firm, steady stroke move the thumbs. The thumbs will naturally come out under your jaw bones, and the movement may be repeated. Do this for as many as twenty times, pressing firmly but being careful not to If you want to hurry the process though, here is something else you can do. You can take a little visitor its steam bath, and massage, you can do one other thing that will help to dissolve the fatty tissue in the skin. You can take a chin. Here is the way to do it. Bring your head just as far forward as you can; if possible touch the body with the chin. Ther from this forward position of the head head as far backward as you possibly can. Just at first you may have to do this little trick rather slowly but in order to do it you must and it is true that a rapid swizzing of the head, following the messaging I have already explained, will do wonders in helping you have only one head.

CAN A WOMAN combine marriage and a career? It is generally assumed that she cannot, and for that reason many men marry professional women with the understanding that the wife will give up, or at least subordinate, her interests to those of her husband. Mrs. A. C. Harris Bilbrew is the daughter of the late Rev. S. L. Harris, formerly of Texas, but for the past nineteen years she has been a resident of Los Dulce" is a distinct triumph for Mrs. Bilbrew, both as actor and musical director. Appering for the first time upon the screen, her role was the very exacting one of the "voiced Woman. Critics say the woman's superb interpretation of the part. The Bibblew chorus of sixty trained voices which furnished the spirituals and folk songs throughout the production of her ability as a stage director. "You see," she explained in her soft low contrabale voice after preliminaries were over, "the picture. I was there merely to help direct my chorus. It was a heavy role and I didn't feel equal to it for it had been written for Madame Schoenberg, the founder of eastern actors, was considered our greatest actor. Then there were two white artists, each quite a famous person, made up and tried out for the part, but none of them were satisfied." I told Mr. Sloane that I had not the slightest idea what a Voodoo woman did or said and there were no words I would shoot the scenes. But after he had given me his idea of how it should be done I worked hard to lose my own individuality and give her portrait of a Voodoo woman. "I was censured severely for playing that part by some of the members of our group, yet I can't see why. A Voodoo goddess in the 1970s old-fashioned group picture as the old-fashioned dress and the Nellie Bly. Our race has a way of shying at truth. We will never overcome faults that way. And after all, the Voodoo goddess in the 1870s. In many of our communities the Voodoo woman is still known. It is true that the number of people who know and fear her is smaller, but she 's with us today. Even in this modern and up-to-date world, reports to the authorities there are Voodoo cults. "The talks have revolutionized the movie industry. In silent drama the two essentials were beauty of face and form, but brains are necessary for Movietone work. The director is not prompting from the director. Not a sound can be uttered unless it is essential to the play. The cost of picture production had always been enormous, but the talks have increased the michael will cost thousands of dollars. I see a very definite place in the movie world for our people. That is, if we will prepare ourselves and be ready for our big chance when it comes, we will have a vital entrance into the world of Mivolteone but how will we follow up? We have been too prone to blame the other fellow for our failures, but this is a day of a new psychology which every Negro should adopt and hold fast to, the psychology that "No one can hurt us but ourselves. We have been over-critical of the other fellow and not critical enough of ourselves. We have been taught by our leaders, to a large extent, that ours was a race nearly perfect, held back only because of our dark skins. But now the slogan of the world is efficiency. And in the past, when trying to count. It is time for young Negroes to stop bemoaning the fact that they are hindered by color and begin to become efficient along some line of endeavor. Not just get a smattering of knowledge of whatever they hope to master." Aside from her chorus work, Mrs. Bibrew is equally as famous for her Ladies Minstrel which is a yearly affair on the coast; and, in the past, this quartet has a two-year contract on the Orpheum Circuit. They were put on the regular bill for their tryout and they stopped the show. This quartette broadcasts over KXN and Quiznet and original "Do-Nut" company. Mrs. Bilbrew's oldest daughter, Mrs. Robert V. Edwards, is an eminent pianist. She and two students are under a five-year contract at Grauman's Hollywood Egyptian Theatre. They scored their biggest hit when they did the prologue waltz and the Eva. They are only five years old but they show a mentality far above that of the average child of that age. Mrs. Bilbrew is also a poet in no known poetry and her best known poems are, "Call to Arms," "Volunteers," "Black Boys in Khaki," We mighty Proud of You," "Punishment of Love," and "Elogy to Love." As a writer of songs, one of her best compositions is, "Tribute to Roland Hayes." As a tribute to her choral music teachers, she came from the famous Winn-Kearney studios and the Hollywood conservatory of music urged their students' to attend "Hearts in Dike" to note the harmonic caught and brought the bearers. Mrs. Bilbrew is a dark brown-skinned woman of medium size and height, yet she has a way about her that makes you want to use the word "cute" to describe her. She possesses a kindness, a pleasing personality. She is a charming hostess, a devoted mother, an affectionate wife, an able directress, a teacher of voice and piano, a poet and composer. Upon leaving her, one wonders at the exuberance and wonder that she displays her ability, not astoundingly, for she goes at whatever task she has to do wholeheartedly. She does not expect failure, therefore success smiles upon her.

The prejudice showing in his eyes infuriated me. In a flash I realized the danger and unfairness of trying myself to Roger Deveaux despair. Then I entered the parlor. Hosed rose. How much handsome he embarked in his new clothes, new shoes, new hair. He saw him aroused all his hours. I had spent in his company. A surge of affection welled up in my breast. He held up his arms in welcome. And before I could control my lips to his. "Oh. Laura!" he cried. "I just have to come North ar' find you. I was here, you come with me. See you. Won't you come with me, dear? I'm going to live in Harlem and work in the insurance office there. I can't offer you much dear, but I will give you. I will give you. Please, Laura, come with you. Will you? Oh. I have loved you so ever since I first saw you, when we were kids together. All I thought to myself, I am colored, even the ghigh my skin is white. Harold is my own kind. I won't be able to forgive him. With Roger it would be one continual fear obsession, one long reign of pretence and hypocrisy. Better to live a frank, open life with you, in ordinary circumstances, than a fearful existence surrounded with all that money can buy. So I accepted Harold. He was delighted. Mrs. McGraw came in and found me in his arms. She was shocked beyond words but I didn't care. So we Harold and I were starting a new existence. We have been married happily La a year now. We will probably never be rich and I have long since given up the expensive thin, of which dreamed when I was a lot younger. We haven't been outside of New York except to Atlanta, and we have Bear Mountain, but strangely enough. I am a happy. And yet, there are times when I dream of noble and wealthy Roger Dewey, and wonder how many girls in my position would have done as well. THE END day, to visit Mrs. Kate Thomas, of New york.

Dear Pansy: Really so much has been whispered around here of late that its puzzling just how to begin or where to begin. We a good start, however, let me say. Milred McMechen arrived in town on Tuesday evening from abroad, just crammed full of interesting news. Hilda Anderson and Connie Murphy, you know, arrived from across the ocean last week. We were from each one at club meetings and social gatherings this fall. By the way, Bert Fitzgerald, baby Betty and Mack are moving away for good, the last of the week to make their home in Boston. Bert, Milred, and I were leaving her relatives and friends, but it's her husband's will, and, as a true wife, she will make herself satisfied wherever he goes. However, they promise to make constant visits, when we are not in doubt he here for Christmas, to spend the holidays with Daddy Flitz and Aunt Flossie. Myrtle Madden is going to Cheyney this fall and Deavera Boston, who graduated from Morgan College, the entered Coppi Normal this week. With preparations already begun for the formal subscription dance of the Internes' Association Prowess, the group will soon begin its fall season of galaey. The dance is coming off October 15 at Elsak hall, and it will be a costume affair with many unusual features in the way of entertainment and enJOY. Clubs, too, have begun to open, and gracious, the social gossip that will fly now. The quiet, though pretty, wedding of Eugenia Williams, an Elsakite of Washington, was interesting, news here this week. Ella Jackson, Pansy, lives in Washington with her ma and pa, Mr. and Mrs. Eugene S. Jackson, of 5121 Northwest Avenue, graduate of Miner Normal school and of Howard university. Of course a member of the A.K.A. sorority and very popular in the social world there. Her sweetheart, Raymond E. Conte, a grad of Harvard and Howard universities, a K.A.S. man and a orator, graduated from Howard. He was acclaimed one of the greatest defensive half backs as well as a mile and half mile runner. At present Raymond is a member of the football and physical director of one of the junior high schools in Washington. He teaches physical training work also in the high school. Now you have their pedigrees. I'll begin on their wedding. The wedding was quietly solenized here on last Saturday at the parsonage, Trinity Baptist church, immediately after the ceremony. Ella's sister, Eugenia, and brother-in-law, Dr. Macco Williams, of 1830 Madison avenue, entertained a full, beautiful Mr. and Mrs. Contee will make their home at 4913 Blain street, northeast, Washington, D. C. They are jonathonening. The girl is a becoming personality and is considered a beauty. Esther Russell Home. Pansy, all of Esther Russell's friends, were good to hear she had recovered from a serious illness of some months. Greater still, that she was able to be among the faculty at Junior High School No. 111 in the city. She is now teaching and looking no worse for her illness. Home Is Happy Again. Good for Helen and John Rich, they have had a reconciliation and are back home together with their two children at 1823 McCullough street, and they have together a petty together soon or later and from the promises they have made to each other at this time, it looks like they will never let their petty together be together again, and now everybody is happy. James Young and Alice Wilson, Penay, thought sure they were putting something over on us when they were married at Elkton, Mary-land, some 10 miles away. But they hoped really to keep it a secret until they had both finished their senior year at Coppin Normal. But murder will out, and so they are Mr. and Mrs. James Young. He graduated from Morgan this June, and entered Coppin Normal this week. This is James's last year there, so it will be rather extraordinary—both practicing in February and graduating in June. Whose job does not say, but they no doubt took that into consideration and prepared for it. However, they are as happy as two peas in a pod. Mrs. Kathryn Lee Now. Kathryn Naylor, Panay, will be entering her senior year at Morgan at its tail opening. Will she be there to accept the congratulations of her many friends? is the question. See, she is Mrs. Naylor. Will she be there if it that they married at Elkton soon after Charles graduated at Lincoln. They are both popular among the younger set and Charles was highly esteemed and held many honors at Lincoln during the whole four years he was there. He was there, and anyone longer to lay whole claim on her adorable boy, so they secretly married and he went away for the summer months as usual. But some one got hold of the secret and so there you are. Popular Augusta Braxton Married Ye gods and little fishes, Pansy, would you believe it? Why Augusta Braxton just came out last semester to dance the Half Court dance. Now they tell me that she is married and to the very young man that accompanied her to the event. His name is James Kearns. He is a graduate of Pitts College, in Pittsburgh, Pa. where Augusta is now a junior. He has a college degree and is from a very prominent family. He married in Pittsburgh so rumor has it, the early part of the summer. He got a job as a red cap at the Pennsylvania station there during the summer months (to send Augusta back to Pitts to finish her college course). Tables have turned. where they are going to make their home apart, reached me yet, but Augusta has done well. In fact a good match on both sides. SOCIETY Mrs. Morrison Honored in Boston Mrs. Laura B.

It provided that the races must be separated in street cars and buses by the distance to report intangible and shifting line, as at present, or else must be carried in separate conveyances. The few members of the committee on railways had to report at the same time that if it ever came to a vote in the house they would oppose it. It never reached the flow of the legislature or vote, nor was it even placed on the calendar for consideration.

Solomon, who is a native of Virginia, came here three years ago, and she and her couple at 138 Eutley place. They became so interested in him that they decided to induce him to remain with them until their death. She slipped in, and he did so and remained single, he was to receive a substantial share of their estate. Although Solomon declares that he hopes still to get the estate if good service can make them change their mind, he has married, being married, on the bridge.

PEOPLE'S FINANCE TENTH IN COUNTRY $200,000 GOAL Board of Directors Increased to 25 Members. PHILADELPHIA—The Peoples Finance Corporation of Philadelphia and Camden has declared an eight per cent dividend at the close of its first year in business. The Camden institution was opened a year ago and the one in Philadelphia opened for business a couple of months ago.

Over fifteen years ago the committee on standard living and labor was formed. Conference of Charities and Corrections, set forth in great detail the minimum standards of life and labor which are necessary to prevent a family or its members from becoming objects of charity. The minimum decent standard required in terms of money is fifteen hundred dollars a year for a man, wife, and three children under fifteen years of age. The decent standard of housing should consist of one room per person excluding bath. The city employment bureau gives the standard wages for Negro unskilled laborers as forty cents per hour or twenty-two dollars per week. However, there are men who receive wages as low as thirty-five cents an hour or eighteen dollars per week. The average Negro childrens consists Mother Works The Negro mother is forced to supplement her husband's wages. A few years ago it was posed to her that she work which enabled her to look after home and children but today she must find employment in a laundry, a factory, or as a domestic. This is the job she has to take away from home and children at least eight hours daily. It is not unusual to find very small children locked up alone along the street, or with neighbors. The older children are frequently kept out of school to care for their younger brothers and sis- Day Nurseries Although social workers do not approve of day nurseries, they are a real part of the community and leave their children all day. In the Northwestern and Middlewestern sections of the city, there are day nurseries conducted by a group of Negro women, and the Mission Helpers of the Sacred Heart. These institutions are doing much to imitate nurseries where mothers are forced to work. All Kinds of Streets Negroes live in every type of street in the city from the narrowest court to the widest avenue. In the courts, alleys, and small streets the houses are falling to pieces from old age and neglect. In nearly all of these neighborhoods there are several tenants who have occupied the same house for years and kept it in repairs at home, demonstrate what might be done with this property if the landlords could be induced to make the necessary repairs. Apartments Since 1919, blocks of large three-story houses, the houses once occupied by white family, have been turned over to Negroes. Many of these houses have been made into poorly equipped apartments, others are rented by a single family who find it necessary to rent to high rent. Many families have to struggle to meet these rents on inadequate income, and lodgers are an economic necessity. In a family of adults, lodgers present no serious problem, but adolescents and young children adult problems have rise to serious social problems. Rooming Houses There is another group of huge old houses, occupied for years by Negroes as roommates and of repairs. However, there are three reasons for these prevailing conditions: (1) the age of the landlord; (2) the landlord to make repairs; (3) the carelessness of the tenants. There is much complaining from landlords of abuse of property and equipment. Nevertheless, if hazardous repairs are reported to the bureau of sanitation they will be the matter given more attention. Charity Last Resort Although Neuros receive low wages, have large families, and may be willing to make every effort to care for members of their families who are philanthropic, they have never resort to charity until every other resource has been exhausted.
