He reached his present rank From 1916 to 1920 he served as military attaché in Monrovia, Liberia. Friends recall how snobbiish behavior the Sam's army has prevented any colored man from reaching the rank of general. They recall that Col. Young, a West Point was retired before he was sent to Liberia where his degree to permit no more-colored officers, of high rank, officials close to the War Department, was eliminated the colored officer first by borring as many as possible from West Point Military Academy and second making it almost impossible for Negro officers to administer their self-respect and stay in the army. The 24th and 25th Infantrys and the 4th and 10th Cavaliers, the only four colored regiments in the result service are actively staffed entirely by friends.

Blackshear Will Have Hard Time in Heaven-Heywood Broun He'll Get Peeved at Black Angels and Tessy With St. Peter Eventually Being Invited Down Below. By HEYWOOD BROUN In Scripps-Howard Newspapers. I have a grave suspicion that the Rev. William S. Blackshear has somewhat mistaken his job and his function. Seemingly he has begun to assume that he is the chairman of the Committee on Admissions and that the Lord's house which he tends is one of the better country clubs. There is no record that Jesus Christ ever said, "Love thy Nordic neighbor as thyself." Or, "I am the light of the white world." Or even, "Suffer little Caucasian children to come unto me." And it is written that when Christ stumbles in causing the cross was taken up by the cross of the Man about to be crucified, but Simon could not come into the Brooklyn church and listen to one of the edifying discourses of the Rev. William S. Blackshear. I have a grave suspicion that the Rev. William S. Blackshear has somewhat mistaken his job and his function. Seemingly he has begun to assume that he is the chairman of the Committee on Admissions that the Lord's house which he tends is one of the better country clubs. There is no record that Jesus Christ ever said, "Love thy Nordic neighbor as thyself. Or, 'I am the light of the white world.' Or even, 'Cause, Causes.' It is written that when Christ stumbled in carrying the cross it was taken up by Simon, a black man from Cyrene. Yes, Simon was fit to carry the cross of the Man about to be crucified, but Simon could not do so. He was to one of the edifying discourses of the Rev. William S. Blackshear.

Not in all the gospels is it said that ever Christ turned upon anyone who came with faith in his heart and advised him that it would be more comfortable for all concerned if the newcomer would only walk down seven blocks and take the first turn to the right. The Passtime of Christ's day was a melting pot of people, which followed the Master. And cripples came, sick men and beggars. They ate the loaves and fishes. Their manners were no doubt, most objectionable. The Rev. William S.

BISHOP REBUKES "Can't Draw Line in God's House," He Says. Special to the Afro. BROOKLYN, N. Y.—The Rev. William S. Blackshear, white, rector of St. Matthew P.E. church, who two Sundays ago announced from his pulpit that St. Matthews did not want Negroes' money nor Negro members, has retracted. Rebuked by his bishop and assailed by pulpit and press, the Rev. Mr. Blackshear, in a communication to Bishop Ernest M. Stires, bishop of Long Island, said: "I want to assure the Negro communists of the most cordial attitude on my part and on that of my people; they are deeply respected, and it is hoped that they will continue to be valued parishioners." Bishop Stires, in a letter to the NA Christian, which made the original protest, said: "I believe the principle and policy which would animate and govern every church is the principle and policy which we believe to have been taught and practiced by our Lord. The form of ecclesiastical sophisthesis is un-Christian. "We must avoid drawing any such color lines in the House of God or the Lord," the members of the organization are members of one family in Christ. In two former parishes I had Negro communicants and my relations with them "were as close and friendly as I was to them," my parishers. "I have never, round it is necessary, to suggest that. I did not desire any more, and in my opinion, such an announcement is indefensible." What Blackshear Said In his original statement, the Rev. Mr. Blackshear, speaking from the pulpit, said: "I my congregation is white and I am not accustomed to see it so. I am a Southerner and I am not accustomed to seeing Negroes in white churches. I am willing to minister to Negroes when they need me and cannot obtain the services of Negroes in this church. In this church. There are other churches in the community where they may go.

Ten Defy Rector Ten colored persons, unaware of the rector's retraction, attended services last Sunday morning, were courteously received and invited my ushers to take any seat. We were the only persons present. The Rev. Mr. Blackshear spoke on the subject, "Christ, the Created Warrior," Luke 22-36. "He that hath no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one." In his sermon he said there were times when Christ found it necessary to refuse the company of those who wanted him. The congregation filed out several white members shook hands with the colored visitors present. Four at First Sermon There were four colored persons present at the original service two Sundays ago when the Rev. Mr. Blackshear made his infamous utterances.

SCHOOL CLASS B Politicians Disapprove Innovations Made. WASHINGTON, D. C.—Dr. C. Wormley denied on Wednesday that his resignation from the board of trustees of Howard university was due to differences with other board members and President Mordecai W. Johnson over plans for the reorganization of the dental college which are now being carried into effect. When informed of the report and asked whether it was true, Dr. Wormley replied: "I am not resigned." Offered no explanation of his resignation and made no other comment. Dr. Wormley submitted his resignation on September 16, General John H. Hancock of Boston, Mass., to take effect October 1. Part-timers Out His action was immediately attributed to a disagreement regarding the reorganization of the Dental College, where he was dean of the Dental College July 1, refused to re-employ for the next school year seven dentists who were members of the Dental College's short-time instructors. He replaced them with four full time instructors, among whom are Dr. Claude Ferebee young, who was a dentist at Dr. Carnet C. Evans, graduate of Howard and a local dentist, and Dr. Emmett Scott, of Boston. Mass., who has spent two years at the Porsyth children's clinic. Hornet's Nest These faculty changes stirred up a hornet's nest, and are threatening a division of Howard alumni with the younger dental graduates generally approving of the selection of Dean Donawha. The older men and the older dentists disapproving Donawha's selection and his changes. The older men were quick to seize upon Dr. Wormleigh's resignation. They asserted that he was not in sympathy with the new institution of the Dental College and the ending of the services of the seven part-time instructors. Dentist School Class B Opinion of the younger dentists is A Has Changed The Style for Hair Has Changed The Style for Hair I: doesn't take long for a new idea to take hold when it makes us more attractive, and is easier to use. Not long ago "Connie the Chocolate" hit conceived by Leonard Harper, opened in New York and when folks saw pretty Marlon Ebert and found out how she kept her hair so soft, bright and smoothly brushed, they followed her style. She wore a white lace La-Em-Strait when I first heard about it. " says Miss Ebert, "and my hair has been so soft, smooth and gloss ever since, that I wouldn't let a day pass without working a little La-Em-Strait into my hair before I started. La-Em-Strait hair dressing makes hair smooth and bright in 30 seconds, and it isn't greasy. That the reason on it is even more popular with the men, that the men like it, and that it works better it to any other hair dressing. You can get it at any drug store in either 25c or 80c sizes. almost unanimous that the Dental College is in need of reorganization. They point out that it is necessary to pace up the schools andcollege of the university. The Medical College is a member of the Association of American Medical Colleges and rated Class A by the American Medical Association. The school is making application this fall for admission to the American Association of Law Schools and is meeting all requirements of Class A law schools. The Dental College is a Class B school, and that merely sufficiency, the school demands dentist's help. Dental demonstrators represented so much political patronage, the dental demonstrators being paid $75 a month and having a commensal committee to their will. The employment of full-time professors will relieve this condition. Best Selection Dr. Donawha personally is not popular but the younger dentists are agreed that his selection was the best possible that could have been. Dr. Donawha has been a guest at Howe- Howard and his internship at Forsythe. He has done private research work with Percy Whois, who is in charge of research at Forsythe Dental Clinic. He is a graduate of University Montreal, Canada. He is a contributing editor of the Chicago Dental Surgeon and articles written by him have been accepted by the Dental Cosmos, the leading dental journal in this coun- tury. Four Years Dr. Wormley has served one term of three years as a member of the board of trustees of the University of July, 1928, and his term would expire in 1931. He was chosen as one of the alumni members of the board of trustees. President Johnson was informed of the resignation of Dr. Wormley by General Sherman, a pressed senator, that any disagreement was involved. D.C.Society Warrant Officer and Wife Twice Round World.

WASHINGTON, D. C.—With newspapers cooperating with the police, and with the clearing house figures driven from the front page of local papers, "numbers" kings here are taking bets on the daily temperature figures furnished by the United States Weather Bureau and are vainly trying to rally under a series of mortal blows given the racket in the police drive against the "numbers." Wary, because of the possibility of forging false reports, few people are taking to the new fad and it looks very much as if the "numbers" have played themselves out in Washington. For two years the game, which has assumed the proportions of a racket, has flourished here more or less unmolested. More than 100,000 persons played daily drive began, four of the biggest operators are under arrest, hundreds of runners and players have been arrested.

About 75 cases have been nolled for lack of sufficient evidence. There is no law on the statutes which applies directly to the number game, inasmuch as the "policy" law fails to cover this particular form of petty gambling. The persons arrested recently have been charged with violating that section of the law, which deals with lottery, policy and setting up gaming tables, devices, etc. It is questionable whether the persons arrested as operators and bankers can be held under these provisions, be held for the action of the grand jury and tried on charges of conspiracy to violate the gaming laws. Big Operators The quartet of big operators recently arrested and held under $2,000 bond each, will be prosecuted on counter-terrorism charges. The firm is on Carter; George Poese, white; William Poese, white, and Isadore Shapiro, white. They had originally been charged with selling up gaming tables, the Government will substitute the conspiracy charge instead. Some of the daily newspapers have up with the reformers and have divided themselves into clearing house figures. Local Race papers, however, are not strong for the crusade and claim that there is no essential difference between playing "number"s and playing the stock market. Race Papers Object. "In one case," an editorial reads, "a person bets that a certain combination of figures will appear in the daily statement of the New York Times, and a person bets that a certain stock will rise or fall. Fundamentally, both are gambling. "There are, however, differences in the people who play number games, the stock market. One group is largely colored; the other is almost entirely white. There is a difference in their economic condition. One group is virtually unaware of the well-to-do to the very rich. One is without influence; the other is powerful and influential. One group gambles with pennies to take risks, but limit; the other gambles with fortunes. But the number drive goes on, and operators are rapidly going out of business and runners are refusing to take risks. The "nocket" which made several local men rich and afforded an easy and comfortable living for hundreds seems to be doomed in Washington. Sensational Raids.

In a letter to Chairman Arthur Capper, of the Senate District Council, he asked Congress enact a law that would enable him to padlock gambling establishments just as he now is able to padlock speakeasies, and Senator Capper says: The suggestion that places used for gaming should be padlocked appeals to me as reasonable and proper, and I shall ask for early consideration by our committee.

Public schools of the District of Columbia opened Monday with an increased enrollment of 1,183 pupils as compared with the opening day a year ago. The largest increase in any single school was noted in the Teachers College in the Miner Normal School, which has just been established by the Board of Education. A total of 120 pupils enrolled in the first year class. In the Miner Normal School 448 pupils enrolled, making the total enrollment in the Miner Teachers College 568. Last year only 424 pupils enrolled on the opening day. Only 20 more new pupils will be permitted to enroll this year, the first year class being limited to 150 pupils. Decrease in High Schools The high schools show a decrease of 153 pupils in the enrollment on the first day. This decrease is due to increased enrollment and enrollment in junior high schools, ninth grade pupils attending the junior high instead of the senior high schools. *Enrolment* Armstrong High 1928 1929 Dunbar High 587 1929 Cardoza High 135 1170 Garden High 135 1170 High 17th gr. only 171 Garnet-Patterson Jr. High 970 Prancis Jr. High 744 687 Randall Jr. High 687 Griffin Jr. High 986 1028 Phelps Vocational 125 105 Washington Vocational 110 133 10th Division 493 1403 12th Division 396 1506 12th Division 216 231 13th Division 878 726 Congress has made no appropriation for the Teachers College.

Few Dancing Parties—Many Teas, Americans Bave Fine Homes and Cars. By EDWARD G. PERRY NEW YORK —I am now disillusioned about how cheaply one can live abroad. A friend and J took “bed and breaktast” together. ‘This beng a room in a private house in the Russell Square section of Lon- or ebiegkfast consisted of an egg, a slice of Danish bacon, two sliees of bread, some orange marmalade and a pot of tea. This’ was varied with herring one morning, and frult on Sunday. "Bue {twas very cold and damp in London in April. Our room had 1 small gas heatet with o penny’ meter, One side of the large oom ever became warm. So my friend remained in bed while I sat over the heater dropping pennies Into the meter. This was an expensive matter, for an English penny 35 two cents in U. S. money. ‘hat We soon moved from this house to Edgeware Road, where four of us took over a house.

Also, in few of the English places do you get Rapkins, butter, or Water, unless they are asked for. ‘Then there is an extra, charge, COME To TEA. ‘The English seldom say come to lunch or dinner, Tt is— “Come to tea.” "Tea, as you know. is their national drink, | Tea time comes be- tween three and six o'clock in the afternoon, Many of the large de- partment stores and small. shops close for aif of an hour to allow fhelr employees to drink thelr tea.

The charge Was made by Mr. ‘T. J. R. Faulk- ner, candidate against President King in the last Liberian election, Discounting the political game which Mr. Faulkner Is playing. this charge. if true, is but further evidence of the anti-American spirit in Liveria whieh has been fathered by President ng. Mr. Faulkner has reminded us that no 0. S. Negroes have been employed on the Firestone rubber plantation in Liberia: this, at the request of, President King ‘Three years ago the President proposed a tax upon U.S, mission schools and teachers and only abandoned this plan when Bishop W. Sampson Brooks, of the AME, church, and Bishop Matthew Clair, of the ME, church hreatened to withdraw rather than pay taxes ‘The proposed U. S. loan of five million dol lars to Liberia failed in 1922, when Senator Pat Harrison (Dem. Miss.) uncovered an_ alleged echeme of President King’s to pay $50,000 in commissions to five Americans of high reputa- tion and good character. including Dr. Ernest Lyon, Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Mr. W. L. Houston, Mr. William, H. Lewis, and Judge James A.

The poor have had the largest families. Often husband and wife re- main poor because they have so many mouth: to feed. ‘This is nature's way to give everybody an op- portunity in the world, for the small. rich fami. fies soon die out and the places of leadership ‘fall to some of the many children born poor. "Maryland alone had over one thousand colored people In 1650 rich enough to be free them- “selves and own slaves, yet the great abolition Yeaders like Frederick Douglass and Sojourner Truth were children of the poor. The same is true today. ‘The men who have climbed to the top in leadership are the sons ‘and daughters of the soil: Dr. R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee; Dean Kelly Miller, of Washington; Mrs. Anna Malone, of St Louis: Mr. C. 6. Spaulding, of Durham, N. C; Dr. W. ZB. Du- Bois, of New York; Congressman Oscar De- Priest, of Chicago; Mrs, Mary Bethune, of Day- tona’ Beach, Fla; Miss Nannie Burroughs, of Washington: Bishop Sampson Brooks, of Texas; are among this number. “There are two sides to birth control: ‘On the one hand it has aided in the emanci- pation “of married women by making it possible for them to work, to have a career and to do the thousands of things men are doing. The modern woman can determine definitely whether she will have one or more children or none at all. On the other hand, the Divine plan sees to it that those who have the burden of child bear- ing also have the Joy of re-peopling the earth— furnishing the leaders of tomorrow. Effective birth control is another great accom- plishment. It gives man power over nature. Tt gives him the freedom to make a choice. He can have the great joy of parenthood or he can re- Ject it for personal freedom and independence. The parents die and ate forgotten, but they live on in their children. In this sense surely the Scriptures are applicable when they say: “For to everyone who has, shall more be given and richly given. “But from him who has nothing. even what he has shall be taken."—Moffett’s translation, Say: : ind na op un et Seen be: Blind is the eye that sees not beyond the skin, star mariage blac oe ntie ‘The purest soul from the marred soul of sin, ‘Though it be covered with a avarihy sein, eee SEEING Blind is the eye that sees not beyond clothes; Blind is the eye that sees not beyond the skin, But the far-seeing eye is the one that sees ‘The purest soul from the marred soul of sin, ‘Though it be covered with a swarthy shin, ISABEL NUTTER ‘SIMPLE THOUGHTS No place on earth can be lonesome that has een touched by the Hand of Creation. ‘The birds and flowers, the trees all have an expres. sion of their own that only the finer senses o my nature ean understand, ‘ARCHIE R.

CLUBS AND ORGANIZATIONS SOLICITED Walter Pinderhughes, 1203 Druid Hill Ave., Madison 2403 SAYS FRENCH WOMEN SPOIL SENEGALESE French Writer Says Contact Has Minimised Natives Opinion LESS OBEDIENT Empire. PARIS.—African soldiers now stationed in France would be taken back to Africa if M. Rondet-Saint. a writer in La Deppeche Colonial, has his way. La Deppeche Colonial, Paris daily, is the leading organ of France's colonial interests. In two consecutive articles, Mr. Rondet Saint maintains, that the presence of the soldiers, who originate from Senegal, is not only harmful to French prestige in West Africa, but to the morale and well-being of the men themselves. These black soldiers, he says, come into contact with the enemy, which has tendency to minimise their high opinion of them on their return to Africa. "The more intelligent the Senegalese," he says, "the greater his stay must exercise an evil influence." He adds: "It is easy to imagine the impression that the black man will take back the French woman with the French woman, accustomed as he was to see her in a superior setting in his native land—as one to whom he could not." Rudet-Saint also cite reasons of breath, and proposes that the men A MOST people depend on Bayer Aspirin to make short work ofaches, but did you know it's as effective in the worse pains from neuralgia or neuritis?

No other colonial power, England, Holland, Belgium, or Germany (formerly), brings black troops to be stationed in the other country. Too close contact with white men, he insists, tends to make the African less obedient, and he cites the contrast between the attitude of the African living in its native language, and the coarse, these black soldiers are stationed mostly in southern and central France. They are in separate regiments, but suffer no discrimination being free to enter all public places without segregation. Who it is now admitted by the highest authorities, saved the day for France when the German hords were descending on Paris in those terrible days of August, 1914. What would have happened that day, when the German hords been stationed in far-off Africa? No mention is made of the black West Indian soldier in the article.

HARLEM BOILS ABOUT OFFENSIVE TITLES. Condemns Broadway Shows Making Use of the Word "Nigger." GARDNER CENSURED Acceptance of Publicity Job Thought Unwise. NEW YORK-With the developing undercurrent of protest against the use of the "nigger" in so many broadway shows, comes the informa- tion that the "Harlem" cast, has been employed as publicity man for "Big Nigger," one of the latest plays with an offer of a gardener at Gardner. Harlem is plainly "hot under the collar" and the fact that Gardner accepted the job, regardless of any previous experience, surprises him to his associates, who think it very unfortunate that Gardner should be associated with a production which seems to have its purported explanation of an unfair side of Negro life. Cite Failures It is believed that this constant repetition of the word "nigger" was the cause of the failure of "Goln' Home," one of the strongest dramas yet presented on Broadway, telling the story of a woman married a French woman. It was instrumental in the downfall of "Harlem." The only show to survive the constant use of the epithet is "Porgy" which is subsidized by the Theater Guild. The Guild has no members in persons other than the members of the Guild attended the production. "Porgy" it would have run eight weeks on Broadway. But for some unknown reason, it caught hold and the pub is now closed. The Rockefeller Beck Theater to see the story of Catfish Row in Charleston, S.C.

However, there was nothing in that morning chat from which I could deduce any open communication, and stand in his writings for such magazines other than that they were his own honest, open communication, which warranted, in his estimation, frank statements. They were presented, met with approval, and published, to accept Mr. Gordon's invitation to visit the Boston Post Building, around two o'clock that afternoon, open communication, which warranted, in his estimation, of hearing me about the drive through the Penny, a trip to Cambridge, a series of meetings with the group of Bostonians, and a talk on the home way, we did stop in the building and leave a card, Mrs. Gordon.

The geographical distribution of the students includes thirty different state and three foreign countries. Prefera Lincoln Ben N. Azikiwe, of Nigeria, West Africa, was among the former Howardites who enrolled here the year Howard began his foray in Howard, he declined to make a comment, but admitted that having studied at Howard for two years, he preferred to be a Lincoln graduate, though he did not admit it, yet it is held in some quarters that he was opposed to certain unwritten social laws practiced at Howard, and that he was a member of the year in a Washington weekly, a blank verse entitled "Whither Howard?" wherein he stated that "A man's a man, and that's that," for "straight wavy hairs do not describe, existence of a culture." Prejudice Not Inborn Speaking before the Y.M.C.A. forum last Sunday, Professor R. E. Labarre, white, declared that race prejudice was not in existence but was a result of environmental influence. He stated that the education of the children of the poor, to prepare the good qualities of each other, plus the putting into practical application the Christian philosophy of love, would serve to cause racism among the various races of mankind for centuries.

PORTERS ARE BACKED BY TRAINMEN PORTERS ARE BACKED BY TRAINMEN Railroad Unions Tell Pullman Employees to Keep up Fight. OLDEST DELEGATE 80 Convention Is First of Sleeping Car Porters. CHICAGO- Vice-president F. H. Nemitz of the Order of Railway Conductors, and W. W. Kirchy, white vice-president of the Brotherhood of Railway Traimmers, backed the Pulman porters in their fight for organization. The first nation convention of sleeping car porters held here last week. Nemitz said that if the porters will join the brotherhood in large numbers, they haven't a chance to lose their jobs. He said that for porters or any other class of workers to have proper standards of living unless they organize and that they should work together either the Pulman company or other employees in industries unless they get together for mutual protection and advancement. He watched the course of the fighters with interest and was glad of the opportunity to meet them in convention and hoped that it would not be love before they would practically 100 per cent organized. Kirchy said there was no way for porters to receive larger wages and that the organization would cent through the organization into labor unions.

NEW YORK—New York got the first glimpse of Josephine Baker's photoplay, "The Siren of the Tropics," when the film was shown at the big benefit show at the Lafayette Theatre, Sunday night. First showing of the picture in America, and first showing of the time on any American screen was here seen a Negro woman held tightly in the living room, an arm in a tent, of absolute social equality, with the colored actress playing the leading role and thoroughly dominating both scenes and story. The story concerns a young Nordic woman, Mary an heiress whose cash will fall into the hands of a relative-guardian in the event of her death unmarried. The relative conditions his consent upon the young woman's death will impose on them in the tropics, and so plots the death of the would-be groom. Girl Vamps HIm In the tropics the young man is intrigued by the charm and native dancing of "Josephine," — beautiful, carefree, antumed, — and Josephine avail herself of the joy of him of the plot, but of small avail. The young fellow is badly injured in a fall from a bridge, and Josephine nurses him back to health and learns to love him. He visits her, loves her, and Josephine gives her the raspberry. Rises to Fame The engaged couple return to Paris and Josephine strolls to the ballet school in Paris as governess and attracts the attention of a night club manager by dancing the Charleston on the street. Then follows her rapid rise to fame and death as a sensational dancer. There are many brilliant dancing scenes in color. The picture ends with: "5,000,000 Frenchmen can't be wrong" PHILLY PERSONALS GEORGE CHRISTER STUFF of Culpeper, Va. arrived here Sunday. MRS.

Interracial Dance Scheduled at Elks' Hall October 3 Harold Stepteau's Melody Boys Will Play for Young Communists' Affair. The first of a series of inter-racial dances to be held under the auspices of the Young Communist League will be held in the Elks' Home, 1628 Madison avenue, Thursday evening, October 3, it was announced this week. The dance was first planned for this week, but postponed in not to conflict with meeting pilots Sophie Melvin, one of the prisoners in the Gastonia shooting affair is to speak. Eddie Lemons Sued by Former Manager CLEVELAND, Ohio. — George D. Tyler, for years a correspondent for the AFRO-AMERICAN, gave up his position as business manager to the "Dashawk" company, to Azorsky, white, following the Pittsburgh engagement. Bad business and unfair treatment Leaders in the movement have planned these affairs that young white and colored workers might get acquainted and understand more thoroughly how their interests as workers are interwoven. One of the main reasons it is pointed out, why managers of big industrial concerns won't give colored youth other than janitor and maid jobs is the belief that young white workers are opposed to giving their race comrades square deal. There is a growing number of young white men and women who declare that they are willing not only to work alongside, but to maintain the everyday friendly relations with, these colored young people. If colored workers are willing to meet them halfway, they say, they can disprove that young white workers are as a rule unfair enough to keep young men and women out of important plants and capacity which they can work efficiently. The dance will be a public affair and young men and women are invited. Second Affair Some time ago a dance of this character was held at the International Seamen's Hall on Thames St., South Baltimore. A regular police permit has been secured and the affair will be staged in the usual manners in which public dances of this character are staged in the Elks' Hall.

Tyler, for years a correspondent for the AFRO-AMERICAN, gave up his position as business manager to the "Dashin' Dinah" company, to Azorsky, white, following the Pittsburgh engagement. Bad business and unfair treatment of the members of the company are given as the reason for the sudden move. The company left Milwaukee clear of debt, and Eddie Lemons, owner of the company, with about $200 in his pocket. The people were not given any parts of their salary had all expenses paid. While in Pittsburgh, Lemons had the misfortune to lose the money from his pocket. All books carrying expenses and recipes were in the hands of Mr. Tyler. The people were allowed to see the books, as each had retained loyal at all times. Up to now, no salaries have been paid and hotel bills here are unpaid. At Cleveland, Tyler and Alexander R. Poole, saxophonist of the show, filed suit through Mettle and Frost, attorneys. The total amount sued for is about $250. A compromise settlement has been set for September 30th.

Times Glee club and so on, and so on, until way into the yawning. Louise Cook to Pose. Tony Salemme, famous sculptor of New York, who is best known among us for his statue of Paul Robeson, has issued a statement to the effect that Louise Cook, dancer in "Hot Chocolates" at the Hudson theatre, on Broadway, and at Cunlein Inn, has the most affection he has seen among Negro women. Miss Cook, as the Goddess of Rain, does the most sensational dance of the hot "Hot Chocolates" and leaves her audience either speechless or hysterical, depending upon its temperament. It is interesting to note that Miss Cook does not possess the boyish form of last season. Quile to the contrary, her figure is rather full and, according to Mr. Salemme, just what he expected. In the Salemme group are Ethel Waters, Florence Mills and Jack Johnson. Are We Peculiar? According to Connie and George Immerman, producers of "Hot Chocolates," Negro performers are peculiar in that:— 4. They prefer to be paid twice a week. 5. They find the drinking-beer-out-of-a-tin-pail bit great fun and quite relaxing. 6. The men stars like quarters near the roof. 7. The women are happiest when their husbands are musicians. 8. They are not given to complaining about mishaps in lights or scenery. Hot Chocolate Hose And while on the subject, Broadway, the Great White Way, has taken up the fad of "Hot Chocolates" in the form of hosiery. A delightful tan shade.

Nathaniel Dett and Mr. Ernest Hays Return from France HAMPTON, VA—Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett, director of the school of music, and Mr. Ernest Hays, organist, and member of the staff of the school of music, who recently returned from a summer's study in the New York City bachelor's of the school of music, Populist France, report on their return to Hampton Institute that the success of the Hampton institute choir in its American concerts has awakened keen interest in Dr. Dett's organization abroad. George Ketcham, of the Hampton campaigned department, is at present in England and is looking into the matter of a foreign tour of the choir: According to Dr. Dett, mr membership in the choir far exceed those of past years, and try-outs are on the coming week. This year, for the first time, an orchestra will be formed under the direction of Professor Wesley I. Howard. Forty have enrolled. "NIGGER RICH" OPENS; NO NEGROES IN CAST NEW YORK."—Nigger Rich," a play purporting to be about Negroes, but without a single race actor in the cast, drew little praise from the critics when it opened at Royale theatre here, Friday night. The vehicle tells the story of an ex-service man who could not quite find himself in civil life. What happens when he defrauds a friend out of a sum of money from the service club to live at the Ritz forms the basis for comedy, which critics here call feeble, to say the least. Dance Halls Announcement was made this week by officials of Station WFBR that Ike Dixon and his "Aces of Joy" will be heard over the radio every Saturday night from 8:30 to 9:00 p.m. News of the selection of Dixon's outfit to fill the spot vacated by Irving Hughes and his famous "Southerners," was somewhat of a surprise to dance and play. Hughes and his combination, it is rumored, are to be Mondays and Wednesdays to appear before the "mike" because of their increasing popularity. A variety of specialities and feature selections are being prepared by the Aces for their radio debut. Those who will be heard over the air with the orchestra are Ike Dixon, leader Theodore Upshur, songster; Bessie Whitington, singer; Robert Clifton Haughton, White; George Perkins, Clifton Haughton, Clarence Britton, Jimmie Duncan, and Charles Williams. The great Zack White and his "Master Musicians" were up to some of their tricks again when they entertained the dance fans of the city at a big musical and wampus jamboree at the New Albert. Tuesday the westermers, who captured the hearts of local dance fans, took a firmer grasp on the heart strings when they presented several feature numbers. Playing with unusual harmony and rhythm, the gang "got away big, and judging from the box office returns, the "Masters" can be expected to return in the VERY future. It is reported that over 1220 persons crowded the auditorium to hear Zack play his "Do Whaka Whang." Fall Season Well, every evidence of fall is here, and naturally the girls and boys are preparing for the house hops and the hall dances which will start in full boom within the next few days. It is reported that every week-end will be crowded with dances given by sub-deb and collegiate clubs at the local halls until after football season. Then the youngsters will relinquish their hold on the halls to the older gang who will stage formals, semi-formals, masquerades, and informal proms for the rest of the season. BREAKFAST DANCES HOT NEW YORK. — Every Monday morning after 3, it is impossible to get into the Lenox club, where again Jeff Blount's popular after hour rendezvous 15 fast becoming one of Harlem's most sought after clubs. Other than Cliff Jackson's Krazy Kats, Sammy Green and Teddy Frazier's hot floor show is the attraction. On the floor one will see Lena Wilson, Johnny Bragg, George Staten, Josephine Olver, Gwendolyn Posey and Kathleen La Marr and eight little brownskin girls. "Hallelujah" Still Goes NEW YORK—With many adverse criticisms from our people about King Vidor's "Hallelujah," this Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production, with Nina Ma McKinney, Daniel Haynes, William Fountaine, Fanny Belt, Knight, Harry, Dixie, Simons, is still packing them in at the Embassy theatre, down Broadway, and looks as if it will remain for several weeks to come.

Music Teacher in City System. Grace Presbyterian church was crowded with music lovers last Sunday afternoon, on the occasion of the re-installation of their organ, which, through the efforts of an organization of the church known as the "Minute Men," has been re-conditioned and supplied with an electric blower. The formal opening of the instrument was celebrated with a musicale. The church choir was assisted by several local musicians. Features of the program were the beautiful singing by Ruth Lee McAbe, the artistic violin playing Harry T. Pratt and the excellent choral work furnished by the choir. Mrs. McAbee sang "How Beauty Upon the Mountains" by Flaxington Harker, and the well-known "Divine Redeemer" by Charles Gound. These two numbers gave me a splendid opportunity to the singer to display the luscious, pure quality of her voice. Impeable intonation and an evenness of tonal quality in all registers gave a spirituality to the artist's singing that was uplifting. Mrs. McAbee's artistry is a splendid example of what conscientious application and masterful teaching will do for a singer. Baltimore is proud, and justly so, of Ruth Lee McAbee's voice attainment. Mr. Pratt seemed to be at his best. Particularly appealing was his work in the double stopping required in the rendition of that well-known Negro spiralual "Nobody Knows Trouble I've Seen, by Clarence Cameron White. Mr. Pratt easily holds his place as our ranking solo violist. Grace choir, under known direction of Mrs. McInerney, sang very acceptable "Unto Thee, Oh Lord" by M. Brown, and I "Will Extoll Trouble," by F. K. Hexser. Three Mrs. Rosalie F. Dawson, the organist of Grace church, played several beautiful numbers on the organ pleasingly, and also gave very sympathetic accompaniments to the soloists. Dr. R. Baxter McRary made a very timely and interesting address concerning the consecration of talents to welfare of the community. Rev. John Colbert, the pastor of the church, said among other things that the afternoon's musical was the result of a concert conceived some ago by the late Daniel Murphy, to improve the organ and to install an electric blower. Paul Harris at Regent. Paul Harris, a local teacher of violin, who for years was the director of the orchestra at the Regent theatre, has set an example of the ability to re-adjust one's self to changing conditions. The installation, first of the organs and then later the introduction of the Vittaphone in places of amusement, threw thousands of first class musicians out of work. Many of them had no other means of profitable employment. Not so, however, with the versatile Mr. Harris. When mechanical music appliances made his services unnecessary, Mr. Harris immediately laid plans to establish himself in business. As a result of his forethought and keen business acumen, today the erstwhile orchestral leader is successfully conducting a first class barber shop in Northwest Baltimore. Mr. Harris finds time to still teach a few of his more advanced pupils. Annie Brown Scores. Miss' Annie Wiggins Brown sang last Sunday at one of the local churches. Many who heard the youthful singer expressed great delight in the skillful way she remembered Mr. Brown has the good sense to continue her studies; this accounts for the marked success she has achieved thus far. Music Credits. Entrance examinations for music credits in our high school were held this week. Many local teachers still seem to think that permitting their students to take the examination will in some manner reflect discredit upon both pupil and teacher, but such is not the case. Public school tests simply co-operate with private teachers in establishing norms that will help all music pupils. It is, however, gratifying to note a slight increase in the number taking examinations this year. "May their tribe increase" as the years go on.

"Jazz Regiment" Still Marching Toward Broadway. Wonderland Park STILL OPEN Every Sunday BY GEORGE D. TYLER CLEVELAND, Ohio. The rising of new stars and the fading out of some have marked the year in the theatricals Abbie Mitchell Abbie Mitchell, noted soprano, was the only race artist to appear in "Coupeville," which did oversee the performances at the opera theatre, of New York, prior to invading Chicago. The theatre Guild presentation that run for 136 performances at the Republic theatre York, took a stab at黛伦·London, but failed to make the grade when we Brits to collar the gab and Row Row. "Goin' Home" Brock Pemberton's "Goin' Home" hit the Hudson and closed after 77 performances. Clarence Redd had a featured role. Thomas Mosley, who portrayed Abraham in "Abraham" Bosch, was cast as Jim, a deserter in September, 1928. Mosley was replaced by Warren Sterling. "Harlem" The next to attract attention was the episode of life in New York's Black Belt by William Jourdan Rapp and Wallace Thurman, entitled "Harlem." Company No. 1 had 94 performances to their credit at the Apollo and Times Square theatres prior to closing May 11, 1929. No 2 was buil for the road and caused a ruckus with the police officer of Chicago ordered the show audited. Isabella Washington had the episode of Cordella Williams in No. 1 but it was Vivian Baber, a new to the stage, that realised and set tongues to wagging. Fair of face, lovely form, a don't-carelse air, and a shorter than short dress, which the thorities ordered lengtheneth this little lady swipe to swipe. With the pass of "Harlem" so passed Miss Garland Anderson's "Appearances" returned, tried to stage a come-back at the Hudson, New York, but lasted at the New York theater after it hit the road. Poorly received in Chicago, Doe Doe Green race artist in cast. Meanwhile, the players in the pantheon of patriarch and Bowman Charles Olden, Evelyn Preer and Edward Thompson, were hitting at the Lincoln theatre, Angeles. The Thompson and Olden were hitting some nice plums in taking pictures. Musical Comedies The best break in musical comedies was handed out by Florenz Ziegler, whose "Show Boat" chalked up almost 600 performances. Jules Bledsoe scored quite a hit. Bledsoe went out August, 1928, was replaced by Daniel Haynes, but returned in September. Out again in November, replaced by John Johnson, who already in the cast, Rollin Smith got Johnson's role later in the month and held it until Bledsoe returned in December. Sibble a few of the better known news were employed as jingle singers. "Blackbirds of 1928" Then came Lew Leslie with his bit of hits to startle Broadway. bit of hits to startle Broadway. Company No. 1 had its premiere at the Liberty theatre May 1994, and moved to the October closing here the 15, 1929, to invade here it pleased, but was not near the riot that it was in Gotham where it had 519 performances to its credit. Cast No. 1 had Adelaide Hall, Bolanges, Aida Ward, Tim Moore and the Plantation orchestra. Peg Bates was added in September. Hudgens followed. The famous team of Beauregardiels split and Eddie hit "in birds." A Baltimorean Baltimoreans will be proud to learn that Philip Patterson, a member of the jubilee singers, is an Argyle avenue lad, and is formerly at McDonnell's Baptist church and winner of several medals. Louis Cole, another member of the show hails from East Baltimore, and is a prodigy of Loye Austen. He is also a road show but failed to impress the crowd on the "Great White Way." "Americana" "Americana" gave employment to race artists in various capacities. George Stamper assisted with the staging of the dances and J. Rosamond Johnson helped with the singing. Johnson appeared in the show as a member of the J. Rosamond Johnson quartette. Then there were the four Wanderers and the Harlem Chis. Show opened at the Mansfield October 1928; last only on performances. "Deep Harlem" and "Jazz Regiment" Sam Grissman tried to put over "Deep Harlem" but it only stalked at the Biltmore for eight performances. Book was by Whitney and Tutt. Tried out later as "Jazz Regiment" and still trying. In fact, we believe that it only a matter of time before "Jazz Regiment" will sweep the theatrical circles. Short Runs Three shows to hit Broadway for short runs were "Messy" 'Round,' which had thirty-three performances at the Hudson; "Pansy," three at the Hudson; "Bomboala," twenty-seven at the Royale. Not a name with box office value to be found in the first named show. Show was conceived and staged by Jimmee Johnson, Isquith, and Jimmee Johnson; by Perry Bradford; dances staged by Eddie Rector. "Pansy" had nerve enough to have a book. Music and lyrics by Macoé Pinkarid; dances staged by Nat Cash. Brent Smith, biggest name on card. value in Bomboala. There was John Mason and "Dusty." Fletcher, but they mean nothing to Broadway. Still going. The nearest theater to "Blackbirds of 1928" is "Hot Chocolates." It has a few headliners, such as Edith Wilson, "Jazzlips" Richardson, and Louis Armstrong, but Baby Cox Louise (Jota) Cook and a few others have just whooped it up so that theatre goers just had to accept them. Summary Altogether, last season wasn't so bad. Billy Andrews got a better break than most of the troupers, appearing in not less than four of the prominent Dancer's name, although prominent in our last review, is absent from this year's list. From all indications, it will be out for quite a while. In usual the Whitman sisters, Butterbees and Susie and the Drake and Walker companies were the biggest money makers on the T.O.B.A. circuit. Martin Klein was outstretched from the Chicago office and Jack I. Cooper in as director of publicity. He was also the headliners, have reared a golden harvest in the stock market. They are talking of taking a much needed rest. Morton and Robinson. Lerov and Evan are at the Lincoln hotel here. Finally try the far east again this season. Buck and Bubbles have settled their difficulties. They are again enjoying a real run. Critics rated them much higher than the Bacleanova. All Negro periodicals' theatrical departments fell off during the season. Regal theatre, Chicago, became a life saver, giving work to hundreds of actors. At present, the house is a poor refuge, due to the lack of workers in the studio, so cheaply that the management expects this of all race workers. T.O.B.A. DOIN'S DALLAS, Texas—Another link in the TO.BA. chain was welded when the Ela B. Moore theatre, here, was taken over by a new manager, Wyatt D. James. The house has been renovated completely. The theatre will be booked exclusively by the TO.BA. under the direction of Sam Rinkin, treasurer-manager. The new manager knows the showrunner the first tap of the gong until the count of ten. Charles Turpin, president of the T.O.B.A. circuit, spent a few days in Chicago, the past week. His main object was to see to the entering of his niece, Miss Nanette Thomas, at northwestern university. He returned to St. Louis, the latter part of the week. WINS HIGH PRAISE JOHN H. HARRIS NEW YORK. (ANP) —Critics are declaring Minta Cato, soprano soloist of Russell Wooding's Jubilee Singers with "Hot Chocolates," one of the most brilliant colored singers of toddlers. Miss Cato has long been identified with the stage, having made a highly successful tour. Austria has assumed a role with the Whitman Sisters. Miss Cato was one of the outstanding successes of the Whitman shows. Ending her engagement with that aggregation, she was writing impersonated her for one of his units. Besides doing solo work in the show, Miss Cato is noted as a choir soloist, having appeared in a number of churches as guest soloist. Marian Anderson at A. and T. GREENSBORO.

NEW YORK.—"Nigger Rich," by John McGowan, opened Friday, September 20, at the Royale. There are no Negroes in the cast. The effacement of the A. C. Glover title changed to "True Colors" proved ruthless. The producers apparently were willing, but the playwright objected. The following explanation appears on the program: "Negroes acquire sudden acquisition of wealth by a squanderer." It tried out before the Broadway opening, in Greenwich, Conn., under the title of "Parade." By any name it is the wiser擦擦er of some war veterans. No so luck.

ONE OWNER FINDS DARKENED THEATRE PLEASES PATRONS A new wrinkle in theatre management was revealed here this week by a local theatre owner. For some time the manager had noticed a sharp decline in patronage, but merely attributed it to hot weather. At this theatre, it was recently decided to turn on the lights of the theatre of each show to aid the patrons in finding their way out. One day the manager noticed a well-dressed young woman running out of the theatre of each show to light a fire entered his mind, and he ran to catch up with the young woman to ascertain her trouble. Upon questioning, the young woman, whom she had attended the show with an escort other than her legally wedded spouse, and when the lights came on, she instinctively sought to leave without being detected by any acquaintance she might well "well," said this alert manager, "if you come back to this theatre tomorrow, I promise you that there will be no more trouble with lights because I will keep 'em Since that time, the manager declared, his business has actually increased. He wants to visit the movies and leave the old lady or old man behind. So if any theatre managers are losing business they may trace their trouble to a trait not to the pictures they are showing.

When the county was terrorized by a mysterious person who groped through open windows with red hands and clutch-ed both colored and white women by the wrist, it remained for Paul Smith, colored boy, to track the phantom to his lair; and by apprehending him, Smith was acclaimed. the hands were in view and that the black sleeves above the red hands were those of a man's cec. There was one probative clue—the sleeves were neatly pressed. Mrs. Gaunt lay on the floor without stirring, and when at length she moved, unobtrusively, careful lest she attract the menace to her, she opened her eyes, and with crushing alarm darkening their depths, stole a surreptitious glance at the open window. Suddenly she uttered a sigh of relief. . . The groping red hands had vanished! But that was the way of the phantom. He never perpetrated serious harm. He merely showed his squirming fingers, then crept noiselessly away. Mrs. Gaunt did not make a great disturbance over what had occurred. The double barreled shotgun that her husband had placed in the corner against the fireplace had been forgotten. Like somewhere that will lead to success.

She had lived in dread of this visit for so long that her nerves were completely For several weeks every woman in Nodaway county had lived in perpetual dread of the phantom. He had terrorized and made his escape without leaving any workable clues. They did not know whether he was a mad man who would perpetrate a french crime when the notion struck him, or whether he was a half-wit, a peeping tom or what. So there was a reason for Mrs. Gaunt's helpless nervousness. The county is one of the largest in the state, and frequently the phantom and plenty of territory to terrorize. He never crossed the county line in any direction. He was quite active at the county seat, appearing in the immediate vicinity of the old Hepley home—one of the landmarks of the town—with persistent regularity; he was a business man who had become insane; some thought him a college student; some a tramp; while a few were of the opinion that the phantom was a decidedly pretty young woman who had made a wager that she could twist the tail of the law and evade its kicking feet. No woman ventured out on the street after dark. Humans at home to protect their loved ones. School girls were kept in; hence the movie shows suffered. There was no end to the phantom, caused by the phantom. No remedy was effective.

By MILLIE R. TRUMBULL (specially prepared for the Illustrator) FOR a long time, I had wanted to know more about Beatrice Morrow Cannady, or as she is listed in the telephone book, E. D. Cannady, the woman who leads her race in Oregon; the person to whom we turn for things political, social and industrial which concerns the colored people. I had listened with intense interest to the broad news reports on the subject race relations and had sympathized with her efforts to break down the barriers of prejudice and discrimination which my race has maintained against her. Many times I envied her the spirit of tolerance which was evident throughout the story of her people. She dropped into the office one afternoon and we chatted for a while of clothes and the two splendid own suits and two splendid dresses and 13 and 16 years of age. Then I asked a few questions about herself and this interview began. It started out with my question as to how long she had been in public "Always," she said with a smile, "ever since I was a tiny child and was stood up on the platform to sing. 'Hello, Central Heaven, My妹妹 There,' and as I would promptly begin to cry as I would not bear the thought of my precious mother being so far away. I was a tiny thing and it seemed to afford a lot of money for the audience, but to me lived what I sang. I was always smiling." "You were born in the South, Mrs. appeared and unobtrusively made inquiries about a girl who had once lived there named Martha Hepler, who has recently been acclaimed one of the most beautiful girls in the world. Moreover and quite consistent with the above, the stranger had asked questions of the old house, what she had done to do with it, since the family had moved. He had been seen not infrequently in the neighborhood of this house.

A man stealing from the store, and his vespions were aroused. Was it possible that this was the phantom? Smith stood there for a moment grappled uncertainly with the strangely acting man shadowing him for several blocks. At one corner a young woman suddenly appeared, coming from a side street. And it was here he plaited the first blunder in his mysterious career. He grabbed the young woman by the shoulders and attempted to drag her from the walk, the girl screaming, fighting, scratching--trying her best to escape the grief. She unhesitatingly came to her rescue. He struck the phantom on the side of the head, staggered him. He then quickly followed up his advantage. Short arm hooks and heads were thrown back, and the finally took to his heels and fled. The air was filled with flies flicking of snow. The fleeing man made a grotesque black lump against a white background. The man ran to the phantom to the railroad yards near the depot, where the phantom vanished near a "ring of box cars." However, his stalker had injured his right hand, and was forced to call for help; and after he could call the phantom was apprehended.

You know, pumps, that Wiley College is one of the best in the United States for colored students. After graduating, I taught in the Gilliam Academy, in Evangeline's country, where one breathes all the significance of Longfellow's wonderful poem. I later taught in Logan County High School, Guthie, Oklahoma. "Was it in the South that you studied music?" "No, I studied voice with D. A. Clipinger, Kimball Hall, Chicago. I had great ambitions in those days and dreamed of an operatic career. While in Chicago, also attended the Metropolitan Opera. But now I am so busy with my home, my boys, the paper and the other work that I have no time for the study of music. I can only listen to other people sing and play." Mrs. Cannady takes great pride in the work that she presents in land Hall. She has a broad audience twice before he became world-famous and she predicted then that he would reach his present height. The "paper" is the Advocate, the newspaper published by husband which associates editor and manager.

Address your letter in care of this news. If you have not given your first attention, do so now. SOMEONE, a long time ago, said that a woman may be beautiful in every other way, but if she had ugly hands, she would not be virtuous. This may not be wholly true, but it is certain that shapey hands are something that are very important to the woman as she is beautiful to hold her place as she is beautiful, to work hard, but still you may have shapey, wonderful hands. Some of the most beautiful hands I have ever seen have been strong hands, made by hard work, one work of the owners, another working hard all day, did not lose sight of the fact that the very work they were doing gave their hands strength, and outline, and that all they needed to do was to work. This is not a hard matter. Most of the things that ruin the looks of the hands are little things that could be easily remedied almost without expense, and certainly with cost so far as time is concerned. Only the other day I saw a woman with the very wrong haircut, working woman, but just five minutes every two or three days, would have changed her fingers and their locks.

While my childhood dream of becoming a prima donna floated away." "I attended night classes at the Northwestern College of Law and never shall I forget the experience which I had as a graduate of that school. I had carried my share of the class party; I was in the class party class; I was in the class picture and sang on the class program; but after the exercises, when the hall was being cleared for dancing, I was asked to take my friends away so as to avoid any embarrassment. For the first time during the whole course of study, I was reminded of the "Of course, I do not forget such experiences, and no one can fully appreciate the distress, unless he has suffered in the same way. "I do not feel resentment, and believe that if we could all know each other better, there would be less antagonism. When I think of all that my people have accomplished in music, art, literature and science, I believe that all we need is opportunity. Color of skin pigment does not determine superiority of race." Mrs. Cannady's services as a speaker are much in demand by numerous organizations and institutions. She says that "contact" is the key to the solution of the whole problem of race relations. "Contact brings about knowledge; knowledge, understanding; understanding, apprehension."

But with Paul Smith it was a case of having pre-emptive opportunity that fate east in his way slender, light and agile. He had been climbing buildings for his own amusement and that of the few citizens who gathered to witness his success. He could be extended to the top of that high building, and just as slowly and cautiously descended to the walk. What he could make it before he began the exercise courage of his convictions, he won out. It was this same courage that enabled him to apprehend the phantom.

Then every day see that they are kept from growing down again. Finger nail polish costs only a few cents a box, and you do not need a buffer to apply it.

There two little things will give you a wonderful improvement or your hands; it will take you only a minute or two—not more than five minutes—every two or three days, it is worth the effort, a hundred times.

(ANP)—This state, which boasts of a "racial integrity law" and a Democratic primary law which prevents descendants of those who voted in bonding voting, was shocked Tuesday when a court record was discovered which showed that bartering and trading in white women as goods, chatlets and articles of commerce was not uncommon before the war of the revolution. The court record showed that a white man, William Todd, had agreed to work for Samuel Pritchard for a year and half, and as wages of white women was to receive a white woman bearing the name of Mary Hichley. It was stipulated in the "indenture" that "Pritchard doth agree and covenant to find William Todd and Mary Hichley without laundering, and apparel during the time aforesaid, and at the expiration of the time to furnish each of them with a new suit of clothes."

Keep Your Nerves Strong and Defy Disease. Showing Connection of Great Vital Parts With Brain. Blood and Nerves Which are Life. Remember. Hear Me Talkin' To Ya By BILL GIBSON BASKETBALL TACTICS, from what this pillar can gather, will not be amiss on a number of our college gridirons this season. Which is just another way of saying that the use of the short lateral pass is going to be bogus. We are not practicing for all they are worth. At Tuskegee, Junna Bolla, British West Indy ruby internationalist, is whipping the Tigers into shape, and here at Morgan Coach Hurt is grooming his charges in the fine points of the air game. At many of the other schools, Howard and Lincoln included, aerial tactic drills and kicking, and here are three main factors in football: running, passing, and kicking, and there was a time when 40 or 50 yard passes THAT CONNECTED, furnished many thrills for the spectators—and for the players too. Today, however, use of the lateral pass has increased by the proverbial leaps and bounds. Pony backfields, instead of the beefy, plunging fullbacks and hefty halfbacks, have made necessary certain changes and the gridiron pastime has been greatly accelerated. There are not nearly as easy as one might imagine, and many a promising candidate is now learning it to his sorrow. There will be more kicking and passing this year than ever, but this pillar predicts that outstanding kickers are going to be mighty scarce. Drop kickers, among our college football players, are not extinct, and very little appears to be done toward developing any. This scribler visited the Howard football camp last week and found an enthusiastic group of huskies going through their paces with an unusual vigor. What surprised this individual most was the fact that he was not a European hustler, but the news went the rounds that only TWO of last year’s regulars would be available for gridiron duty this year. Whether this is the usual bishyo or not, is a question, but I'm passing on to you the information given me that Captain-elect Webb, Simpson, Hayes, Joe Brew, and a few others were all in the Army. I don't know where around the Hilltop told me that only Glacier Mack, the Baltimore wingman, and Marshall, the Jersey boy who set the stands wild last year with his deadly passing and fast stepping, are the only regulars that will represent the Bisons afield. How much salt is to be taken with this, is left to one's own taste, but it is not unlikely that most of it is the real thing. Of course, you know that Ross Ross, Jack Cole, and the Thomas, what has happened to Shelton and Hammond I did not learn. But don't think for a minute that there is a dearth of beef at Howard. Far from it, and some of the names have a little foreign twang, if you know what I mean. Fristance you never would think of Howard when the names of Ukkerd, Hagard, and Schanke were mentioned, would you? We have Sheetland, and more than Thomas, Allen C. Dickson, Whiting, Boyd, Morris, J. Harris, Stallings and a gang of others that you'll probably read about before the season is over. Verdell is right on the job, smiling his infectious Western Conference smile, and as we watched the Bisons go through their paces, we became more and more convinced that that smile doesn't mean anyone any good. JUST FOR THE RECORDS, did you know that? Crush Holloway of Hildale was at bat more times than any other player in the league, taking his turn 301 times? Johnson, also of Hildale, and Marcel of the Black Sox went to the pantry and T29 in the lineup. Johnson, also of Hildale, the Bacharachs was at bat 96 times, made 30 hits, 4 home runs, scored 11 runs, made 253 put outs and stole one base, having an average of .306 for the season? John Hennessy Lloyd, veteran leader of the Lincoln Giants, was at bat 624 times, scored 11 hits, won 301 of the 262. Oscar Charleston only hit 6 home runs and made 13 errors?

The batting strength of the Black Sox, figured from the averages of the 15 men who figured in the lineup, is .388?

Frank Warfield was sixth on the list of Black Sox sluggers, hitting 271 for the season? G THE ANNUAL SERIES between the Black Sox and Fritz Malese's All-Stars will get under soon, and from all the spies of this dept, have been able to spy, the games will again be held at Maryland Park. Oriole Park, the logical place to have the series, from the standpoint of convenience to patrons and from the standpoint of money-making for the two teams, again shuts its gates in the face of the attacks. With the death of Jack Dunn, who was known for his interracial antipathies, many local folk thought that the bars would be let down and a new day in athletics ushered into the Monumental City. But the same narrowness that makes one cut off one's nose to the king's horses and all the king's men don't seem able to judge it. A misunderstanding on the part of some of the contestants caused this department to postpone the finals from last Saturday to September 28. Representative horseshoe tossers from the Baltimore team are headed to Baltimore, and judging from the results of the district eliminations the local toors will find their hands full when they stack up against the out-of-town competition. Horseshoe pitching AS IS will be the order of the day, according to present arrangement, in this piller urges you to be on hand or else weep in anguish the rest of your earthly days. A FRIEND OF MINE, enthusiastically shouting of the deeds of the St. Louis Stars, particularly after their 8-0 shutout of the Baltimore Black Sox last Sunday, that week that wrestled a familiar foe to that played in this region. There is no comparison, he would have me believe, between the callife of baseball played by teams in the two sections. Mayhap my friend is right, but this pillar, particularly after the 7-0 shellacking the dark-hosed boys handed the Saints the following day down the stretch, as it was argued that since the Black Sox represented the cream of eastern baseball, and since St. Louis was below the standard of the Kansas City Monarchs, National League champs, one must obviously agree that had the Sox engaged the Monarchs in a championship series it would have meant nothing short of suicide local to us. Superior pitching caused the Sox to drop their 8-0 encounter to the Stars. They were simply unable to hit the offerings of Trent, and then on the other hand it was the same thing that allowed the Stars to win the series on and off days, and infielders and outfielders do too, but it is principally in the pitcher that the difference lies. In the daws of the "Hitless Wonders," it was possible to win ball games without hitting it today, when you play against a pitcher who is the tastest of the hits that wins, in most cases. Let a pitcher get the Indian sign on your hatsmith, while the opposition is pounding your hurler to all corners of the lot. Try as I will, I cannot agree with my friend and neither do I argue that the Black Sox are superior. The teams in this pillar's estimation are rather evenly matched, with odds out of the top of the pack in the number of course, but nevertheless, I cannot agree, with my friend.

However, the quarterback position is as yet vacant, and though there is a great deal of promising material in rescue, the problem to who will fill the vacancy. The untimely death of Henry Jordan, last year's second string quarterback and a player of rare ability and a problem, Scott, the fleet-footed halfback of West Virginia fame, and Hawtha (Bucky) Harris, another great back, make a strong bid for Chubby Jones, all-American fullback and Hampton's most aggressive player, is destined to fill the gap left vacant by the graduation of Duzk Bauer, the menace for the post two seasons.

All-American Hith School Tackle, has cast aside his academic togs and denoted the regulation moleskins for a tackle position on Union's line. Capt. Bernard Smith, olding a backfield substitute center will have to be developed in order to alternate with him. John Williams, last year's right end is holding down his position. The other end presents, although there are a number of desirables trying for the berth. R. M. Harris from Warren Plains, N.C., is trying for the position as well as an unknown quantity in the person of Lee, who halls from South Plainshide High School. He is years elongated substitute end seems to have an eaker on the position but will have to continue bluing. S. H. Brown of Peabody High is another trying for end.

So far, the outstanding "find" is Benson, 20 fullback, from Bryn Mawr. Pa. In the first scrimmage of the year, the big fast boy ripped wide holes through a good line and was a terror on the defense. He, along with several other players, will probably worry about, and the starting lineup against N.G. College may find some brand new faces answering that first whistle. Although the loss of Jake Kelly felt, the return of Dabney and Williams to round out the backs has set a spark of hope. The team will in all probability, depend on exact execution and perfect team works rather than a varied attack. New Coach at Livingstone.

BARBECUE BARBECUE BARBECUE BARBECUE HAITIAN FINANCES ARE CALLED DEPLORABLE French Writer Says American Occupation Has Burdened Country. CITES ATROCITIES Military Stores are Freezing Out Native Merchants. PARISI.—All assertions that the finances of Haiti are in a better condition than they were prior to American occupation are false, according to Jacques Dizier, who deals at length with the subject of the Americans in Haiti in La Depeche Coloniale, Paris daily. He says: "The financial situation of the country is deplorable, in spite of the magnificent financial reports published annually. The budget of the republic is heavily laden by the large salaries paid in gold to Americans, as for example certain works said to be in the public good, show a defect. Business is bad: it is expensive, renew incessantly the stocks of commerce for hear of a general bank- The writer also charges that the business of the local merchants has been badly hurt. "To the great detriment of local commerce, the retail stores sell directly to the pubs and cinemas, carned goods, utensils, etc." Atrocities Speaking on the subject of atrocities, M. Dizier asserts that the body of Charlemagne Perale, leading insurgent, was wung on a cross in the public square of the Haitian city of a long guerrilla war which the Americans suffered important losses, the superiority of American arms, won. Perale was killed, and his corpse was borne triumphantly by the troops in the village under the folds of the insurgent flag. "We may add this detail: the Americans circulated in profusion photographs of the comrade when attempted to enter the town when protested against this act of savagery. "We may also relate the following incident: The body, crucified, was exposed in the chile, square of the Haitian city of a French merchant, passing in front of this shameful exhibition, lifted his hat, an dan American officer started to arrest him. In our country, replied our compatriot, indignantly, we consider it a duty to The sole good to the country, the writer finds, are the roads made by the Americans, in order to 'assure their rapid transport of troops in case of insurrection. He concludes: "With the exception of a little clan which lives of politics the population has contact, with the Americans. This clan is turn is ostracised by the classes who formerly directed the country. But the Yankees pay no attention to this. They have come into Haiti, not to make themselves beloved, but to assure themselves of new markets for their products and their colony of exploitation, par excellence, and why, they are profiting to the fullest from the windfall."

Gossip is flowing now—just met Sarah Fernandis on the street and she seemed quite amused with rumor going around that she was either ready married or doing the making preparations for a brilliant wedding in the fall. In fact, one lady had already bought her dress for the big event. However, Sarah left me to try. and figure out how either could happen, when she is not even engaged. But, dearie, she adopts, though she can't hug her "Soet Child," and take it from me. she surely will tell you when to go if you happen in on the boy friend's evenings. Hoskins's Studio. Pansy. If you would just make up your mind to come down on a visit, our first trip would be to Shelton Hostels' studio in the location of decorations, and the new lamp shades with applied designs in transparent sealing wax, piped with an antique finish, are just too bad. He taught all this kind of work all summer—now it is of flowers he makes from paper, which he cuts, mind you. from flower patterns and matches colors from the real flowers, which makes it all the more so unusually life-like. Skeeting of his models in costume and fancy dress, I did engage him to make me an original design for the Halloween party I wrote to you about. I know, Pansy, I won't see myself coming in when I wear it, but it's going to be way out there, right on. Marjorie Likes Social Work. Pansy, Marjorie Lynch is doing splendidly with the social service work to which she received appointment quite a few weeks ago. Her work at Morgan, and came out in June with honors, receiving in turn, a medal in that field of work. The authorities are very much pleased with her beginning and her Pennsylvania avenue.

Alma's Trip Was Delightful Alma Kelly, Pansy, of 2018 Drud Hill avenue, did a bit of globe trolling this summer, stopping at Buffalo, Niagara Falls, and crossed the border, going to Chatham, Ontario Canada. Before she called her summer vacation complete, she dropped from Chicago and, Mrs Joseph Shulton Pollen. Mrs. Pollen, my dear, will be remembered as Nellie Gaskins, a former school teacher here.

Springfield, Ill., reports that two mines reopened and that a goodly number of the 800 miners employed in them are Negroes. Los Angeles calls attention to three more garment factories employing pressers and operators and also notes that the good performance at a packing house has led to the appointment of a foreman, and a Negro cooperative, that has captured much trade that hitherto went to chain stores.

The department considered considerable improvement over the previous month, particularly in manufacturing, trade and mercantile pursuits. Some Losses There were losses, however, as well as gains. Among these may he mentioned Columbus, Ohio, where the largest department store, the dismissal, held help, causing a loss of approximately $350 per week to the race.
