White Wife Claims Insurance Policy.
SOUTH NORWALK, Conn.
This community was twice shocked last week. It was stained when two life-long Dads one of whom was a church deacon, killed each other after a midnight card game.
But it was downright astonished when a white common-law wife and four children attended the funeral of one of the men along with the legal counsel. The two dead men are John Burt, 46 of 16 Chapel street, who fatally stabbed Joseph Gilbert, 47, 32 Chapel street, a church deacon. Gilbert turned two bullets in the chest, causing the men died for forty minutes of each other. They had been pals in life and they were pals in death.
Burt's funeral, held Wednesday of last week at the undertaking pawn of a life-threatening death. Mr. Burt, his legal cured wife, and by Mrs. Edna Vale, white of Bridgeport, Comm., together with her four children, of whom she claims Burt was the victim. Mr. Burt both were dressed in deep morning and both were heavily veiled.
The common-law white wife, announced that she plans a night for insurance policy at which the present time is in the hands of a local insurance agent and upon which she claims payment of premiums for the last several months.

The white wife visited the colored wife and told her she expected to sarcaction as soon as possible. She also assisted the office of the local insurance agent and demanded that she be carried over to her. This was refused. Before the funeral, Mrs. Vale viewed the body of her common-law husband at the undertaking parlor. She could hardly control herself and broke down and went. Burt was informed of the Saturation, nearly
The entire murder occurred following a fight between the two men in front of the Burt home on Chapel street. Burt stabbed Gilbert who retained by firing two shots from a distance. Gilbert was stabbed in the groin. Burt was found to have two bullet wounds. One bullet pierced his abdomen.

Johnson quoted a justice of the U. S. supreme court as having told him of the men of that tribunal had longed for some one to so present the cases in the Negro's behalf that decisions might be rendered in harmony with right and justice so clearly and forcefully plead that the end would be inevitable.

TENN. LILY-WHITES
G. O. P. Chairman Reports Factional Differences Now Settled.
WASHINGTON, D. C. — The Church-Taylor faction has won out over the lily-whites, according to reports which were current here Monday on the return of Claudius H.

GARVEY INFERRED JAMAICA JUDGES ARE TIPPLERS
Spend Nights Sitting in Club House, U.N.I.A. Leader Said.
JAMAICA, B. W. I—Marcus Garvey was jailed for three months for contempt of court because he inferred that Jamaican judges are tipplers.
Mr. Garvey committed this offense while campaigning for election to the city council. The vote of the judges was two to one. The dissenting judge voted for a $1,000 fine instead of the $500 imposed, but no imprisonment.
Rides in Own Auto
Mr. Garvey, accompanied by two balloils, was driven to St. Catherine's prison in his own car. Four car loads of loads and followers made up the procession. His wife and two women friends were in the last car.
Garvey in Jail
Garvey in jail sees visitors and writes for, his paper. Imprisonment will not halt his campaign for council, he said.
The man in sentencing Garvey, said he was "foolish" "hot headed," and "prevaricated" his affidavits. Garvey's paper got back at the court the same day by saying the chief judge maintained a pronounced antimpathetic attitude towards Gatineau, the coast.

DEAD MAN KEPT FOR COMPANY
OMAHA, Neb.

Mrs. Lewis escorted the men to the embalming room where the body of the late Emanuel B. Brown was buried March 16, 1929. "We have not decided to burial him, as his aged mother has no money, and he is no trouble to us here, as we simply move him around when we must have a speedy funeral," she said. Lewis declares that the keeping of Young is practically inexpensive as he only gives him a car, and he must have a speedy funeral," she said.
DEPRIEST'S BILL WOULD STRIKE FOREIGN BORN
Aliens would be Forced to Become Citizens or Pay Tax.
MAIL DISCUSSED
Letters Sent to "Colored Congressman."
PORTLAND, Ore.—A bill to compel foreigners to become citizens or pay an occupational tax will be proposed to G.O.P. leaders by Congressman Oscar DePriest when he returns to Congress.
Speaking here to a large audience in Lincoln High School auditorium which he addressed as "brothers and sisters," Mr. DePriest said, "I. Go so many men doing the work you used to do, men who are not citizens—men who will not defend our government in the time of war.
"I take it, write, the Republican leaders in Congress the foreigner to pay an occupational tax unless he declares—within a five year period—intention of becoming a citizen. I see no many men doing the work you used to do to America earn a livelihood, educate his children in our public schools and not assume the responsibility of citizenship.
When this country needs men to defend our quilty American citizens can be listed.

should stay in our country and not
assume the responsibility of supporting
our government.

hundreds of thousands of them who
could not be sent over there because
their land was too small.
"You have your own land laws out

protection, but there are thousands

Gets Plenty Mall
"Many people," Mr. DePriest said, "seem to think I am the only man in Congress. I get lots of mail and all kinds of requests. Mail is addressed to the 'colored Congressman,' the Negro Congressman, and the African-American Congressman." It comes to me and I accept it all. No one can insult me. I don't go about with a chip on my shoulder, but I advise anyone not to step on my feet."
Mr. DePriest, said every courtesty had been extended him in Congress. **Strikes at G.O.P.**
Addresses the public whites in the audience, the congressman said. "America should equalize its voting strength. If the Republicans had the nerve to enforce the Constitution, they would reduce the congressional vote by 10 percent, the electoral vote 35, then we could never live long enough to see a Democratic president elected.
S. Carolina--Orson
S. Carolina--Orson is the location of the country have a greater value than another? Oregon cast 320,002 votes in the last election: Oregon has three Congressmen. It took an average of 106,000 votes to elect a Congressman with a total of only 8.05. South Carolina has seven Congressmen elected on an average of only 9,800 votes.
In other words, a vote in South Carolina would satisfy a vote in Oregon. If it is radical to ask the American government to enforce the Constitution, then I am radical.
"If you don't file your complaint, you think you are satisfied with conditions. I shall never be satisfied until I enjoy every right guaranteed to me under the Constitution.
The Irish agitated 700 years before they got their freedom. He must fight with his head and the ballot. **Constitution**
"The government is spending millions to enforce the 18th amendment. You must enforce the Fourteenth? One says a man shall not drink and the other says a man shall not vote. I would rather spend a million to enforce the Fourteenth Amendment. The first deprives millions of their only weapon of defense."
No Democrats
Mr. Dr. Priest, urged colored voters, not to send Democrats to Congress no matter how good they were to race. The Democrats were not good to Congress they were won over by the Democrats from the South who had been kept in Congress from year to year and ended in holding important committee posts.
Officers in the Army
Soaking of officers in the Army and the naming of colored men to West Point and the Naval Academy, Mr. DePriest said. "We are good enough to serve their country as soldiers, they are good enough to serve as officers of those soldiers." Criticism Referring to criticism directed to him by his enemies, Mr. DePriest said, "Every man in public life must expect criticism if he does anything. If he does nothing, there is nothing to criticize. Chicago's Culpe
Defending Chicago, as to its reputation as a great crime center, Mr. D. Priest, said that the crime rate in the city is higher than it is in the city of Washington, D.C.
FREDERICKSburg, Va.-Joseph Walker, senior deacon of Shiloh church has as his guest, his brother from Cincinnati, Ohio, whom he has not talked with since 1862, when he was a year-old brother, sold into slavery.

hotel. The hotel was one of the best of
the smaller ones. The exterior and

Ride Up. Walk Down
In the hotels of most cities abound, one can ride up on the "lift" but must walk down. So, we deserved a cafe, but not a restaurant at a cafe on the Rue de Montpaznasse. I wondered how any of the cafes did business, but I soon discovered each one had its habitats. I visited the cafes, the jacques, after ordering a drink, slipping slowly, you watch the crowd pass in and out of the cafe, and those who stroll along the sidewalk. Never have I visited those leisurely as those Paris crowds.
The service in a good restaurant is grand. Suggestions are made by the chef, and they are shown by the garçon. The wine and bread are brought; butter is extra. French bread is delicious hard and crusty. You sip wine, eat bread and linger over your hors de veuves for more minutes.
No one is in a hurry in France during a meal. The food will delight the balate of any dessert. It is very good. If eaten in some second or third class restaurant, it is bad—it is very bad.
French Never Forget
A waiter or taxi driver is always given ten per cent of the bill. In one can afford it, give them it. You can also be assured of pleasant service when you visit the cafe or restaurant again. For the French are like elephants—they never forget. At the opera in the theaters or the a-rogram and tips the usher. Please don't try to get by without tipping the usher! When she has finished telling you in a language she thinks of you, you will either want to sneak out or drop through the floor. Also, don't give them ten small an amount, or they will ask you for
Taxi Fare 25 Cents
The French franc is now down to four cents. Take a taxi in Paris. The first drop is one franc, over the first drop is one dollar, over the entire city during the day amounts to twenty-five francs, or less. Short distances come to three or four francs. The distance will soon amount to something if it is done too often. The latter comes to evening, the latter comes to midnight. After they are doubled, So they get you after all, if you are a long distance from home, there being no other transportation after twelve forty-
The small Parisian shops carry the novel and unusual articles. Most of these shops are very attractive. They are also very expensive. Department stores are very unattractive on the ground floor. In the best of them—Printemps, Galleries Lafayette, Samaritans. Department stores is that created upon entering Gimbel's, Bloomingdale's or Hearn's. Too much on display. Most of these stores have sidewalk counters, where goods can be displayed cheaply, as in our basement stores. If you must shop in a large store where articles are attractively displayed, and you have a fat purse, go to the Gimbel. You can find a large number of English-speaking clerks. But every large store has an interpreter.
Clothes Designers
If you are a woman, you have wondered about the great designers of women's fashions. Yes, they are number one. But one must to secure a card of admission to the salons of these great fashion artists. Poiret, Patou, Laino, Jenney—the names can be seen on the walls of the Champs Elysees. Dictators of the women's fashions for the world. This is the only glimpse the average woman in Paris can get of these creators.
According to Parisian stand-up comedians women are the best, dressed women in Europe. There are many of them in Paris, and one can always pick them out because they are the most glamorous there. Among the French people, few women are as well dressed. But the Parisian women have mastered the art of make-up, the make-up eyebrow lint art, put on without ablem.
Men Chic Too
The French men try to be as chic as their women. Most of them wear suits of light blue, purple or a bright red-brown. To these suits or the colored light blue, the suits. The colored light blue, or two-tone. Most of them carry a cane—a square one—and stroll the boulevards with a grand swagger.
French children are lovely. Their eyes sparkle and they are very like us. The smaller ones when dressed are, the loveliest children in the world. Their outfits are as much style as those of their elders. It is interesting on Sunday afternoons to watch them sail boats in lake in the Luxembourg gardens.
$2.40 Grand Opera
Opera is one of the favorite pleasures of the French. There is the National. Opera 'at' the famous Paris Grand Opera. Also, the Opera Grand Opera. All opera are sung in French. Most of the native singers are very bad. At the Grand Opera, the staging is badly done. Opera Comique is saved from these criticisms because it is rather intimate. At the latter house, many American singers make 'their debut or sing stellar roles. But after all, the opera is not a charge? Why, you can really get an orchestra seat at the Opera Comique for sixty francs—two dollars and forty cents.
The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, October 12, 1929
French music halles, revue houses, are grand. Like our movie palaces, they are ostentatiously decorated. One or two are excellently done with triangles, curves and colors of modern architecture. Most of them have a large window in the patio to amuse themselves in during the long intermission.
Follies Vulgar
The Follies Bergere is foremost. Most of its patrons are Americans. Cultured French people look upon the Follies, where he is lavishly staged, running a big ahead of Mr. Ziegfeld and Mr. White. Most of the performers are women who are scantily clothed. Here Josephine became notorious, only to be forgotten in the same manner. The Negro is rev. sentenced in the Follies this season by an orchestraist. Josephine is a very effective piece of staging. But Jo made her impression, for a head of a Negro is part of the theatre's musical decorations that are done in murals and medals. Castine is Hippodrome. The Casino de Paris is to Paris what the Hippodrome was once to New York. Grand seashells, fallen flowers, swimming in the water. No wonder this kind of clap-tray staging has passed away here. It is more than fine. In fine, in fine. (Marquis I believe, fills in here and there throughout the snow.
Night Clubs
In Montmartre you will quite naturally find most of the larger cabaries and night clubs. There are many of them—Brick Tops, the Music Box, the cabarres, the men as exciting as most Harlem cabarres. But at these place one can hear the best jazz music. The orchestras are colored.
Sissle's Band
At the walled embassieds, in the Champs Elyse section, one can see and hear, as well as dance to the music of Mr. Noble Sissle. This is said to be the most fashionable cabaret on the continent. This place will spend an enjoyable evening here.
Over in the Montmartre section are two interesting and inexpensive small clubs—La Jockey, La Jungle, the men are always packed with many Americans, French, and Martinians.
The Fetische
And you want to know about the naughty places and scarlet women? Well, they are there from the house where you go to see nude women or girls in the city, or to pick one up along the Boulevard Clichy. Then there is the "Fetiche," a night club frequented by Lesbians. And the "Petite Chaumière" where men dress in beautiful gowns, lovely wigs, have painted faces and drink champagne. And "Fetiche," "It's a branding for you," if you like this brand of excitement.
The Apaches
Most of us have Apache boys and girls in the movies. It was all very picturesque. When seen, they are not so pictureque. They are more like people. Along the Pue de Lape de most of the habitus of this quarter are found in diygy dance halls. Some of the Apache boys who dance together, are rather handsome. The women are hard and uely with paint. There are no girls. If attempt to stand, you must accept their standards or out you go.

"The Incredible Marquis—Alexandre Dumas." is the name of a new biograph just issued by Herbert Gorman and published by Farrar and Rinehart, New York. German thus describes him: "Quadron son of a black-mothered father, Napoleon's reckless General Alexandre Dumas, born in July, 1803, was blue-eyed, thick-licked, with farnish, crisply Nigroid hair.

'Teach Hoover Lesson, Is G.O.P. Slogan
Agitation Begun to Defeat Republican Senators in Seven States
WASHINGTON, D.C. — "Tea and Hoover a Lesson," is the slogan agitated—among race G.O.P. leaders who are here angrily criticizing a negro appointed a Negro to an important office since he was inaugurated seven months ago.
Figures have been sent out to the newspapers showing that the governor of power in Michigan, Illinois, New Jersey, West Virginia, Rhode Island, Oklahoma and Kentucky, where candidates to succeed James Coonsell, Clinton D. Goff, Jesse H. Meltall, W. B. Pine and Frederic M. Sackett come for election.
President Hoover has neglected the candidates he the leaders say, and the loss of seven senators will cause him to open his eyes.
MASONICHALL NOT COMPLETED YET
Receivers File Final Report, Bond Reduced
WASHINGTON, D. C. — (CNS) — The receivers in the case of the new Masonic Hall Corporation, attorney at law, and Alexander Wolf, have filed their final report in the equity branch of the supreme court of the District of Columbia and the bond has been reduced to $5,000. The case against the corporation have been paid off under the direction of the court; but some $2,000 still remain to be paid to the preferred creditor of the defendant. The case has been in litigation since April 19, 1919, and the Masonic building at Tenth and U streets is still in an incomplete condition, and without tenants although the work has been resumed and is rapidly being completed.

McMillan Finds Catholic Church
Is Same in Germany
‘By LEWIS K. McMILLAN
BERLIN—I went last Sunday to a Catholic service. It was
the first tlme that I had been on the inside of @ Catholic church
for at least two years. Somehow I wanted something that T had
not yet found in the German Evangelical Church. In the latter
the services ate cold and slow.
Tm the. Catholic church was a contrasting disference—a
‘warmth, action, sustained beauty in song and speech. The German
Evangelical church is 2 church of another people, the Catholic
church 1s a church that is essentially the same everywhere. ‘The
Gress of the clergy and attendants was familiar, almost all the
tunes of the songs, the language of the songs (Latin), the Gothic
architecture and even the little vessel of ‘cleansing’ water”; $a
other Words, there was 80 much of what I hed seen in other Cath-
olle churches that I knew no strangeness—I felt st home.
‘Among the worshippers was the family of 3 Chilean army
officer, ‘The mother and three children knew no German at al.
But, as they knelt in. their places, they seemed to imagine them-
selves in the very arnis of a loving, bountiful, sure protector. ‘They
‘were evidently at home. They, however, were not at home, when
T'met them in a park a week earlier; for there they were loniely in
‘a strange country.

AIDA WARD LIKED PARIS HATS, LOVEMAKING AND MONUMENTS
Stage Star Tells What She Considers the Five Marvels of the French Capital.
PARIS.-The Intrasigeant, Paris daily, has been asking well-known persons what do they consider the five marvels of Paris. In the issue of September 15 has appeared the response of Adelaide Hall, star of the Blackbirds." It is as follows:
The marvels of Paris! That's odd. But, but, how I love Paris. I adore:
I. Those beautiful- cafes on the Champs-Elyses, where one can sit, no matter when, even alone, and have, like everybody, tea and cake.
2. All the monuments which concern Napoleon, and most of all the Invalides. Because, for me, Napoleon was the god of Paris.
3. The freedom. In the streets of Paris youth is as free as the birds of America. They embrace, the whisper of her hearts of love; and she would say it was quite natural since no one pays them any attention.
4. The dresses, and especially the hats. In America we have fine dresses that come from here, but not such beautiful hats. I would wear a black fifty, one hundred, and I would not wear the same three times.

"Bojangles" Robinson Presented Gold Gun by Cops
NEW YORK—Bill Robinson, ex-Blackbird and midnite show promoter deluxe, has gold bullets in his gun now. And more than that. Be has a gold gun.
This is no secret since the cops gave it to him, themselves, permit and all. This is how it came about, it may bore you to know:—At the outing of the 32nd prescinct boys this summer, two of them seriously injured during an intra-mural baseball game. Both were laid up several weeks. As a matter of fact, neither has been able to report for duty, yet. Bojangles, who stands in well with the 135th street outfit, and was the precinct guest at the time of the accident, got it in his head that it would be a beau geste to stage a midnight show for the casuals. As is his habit, he put the thing over big and collected nearly a grand for the injured bluecoats.
So Sunday night past, at midnight, Leutenant Cohen presented the so with the state commissioned gold gun and a dozen shining gold beads. Adeleah Hall, Mrs. Bill Robinson, Bill Ahele, Charlie Johnson, Small's orchestra leader, and several of Bill's intimates were present.
Bo made the lieutenant a present of his old gat, and told friend wife; "Dea, you ought to be tickled to get shot with a gold gun like this." Three years ago, the White Plains policemen gave Robinson a gold police whistle.

More Swedes Wanted
Branda Tonton, white, a restaurant-keeper in Stockholm, Sweden, once lived in the United States. He refused a milk of milk to ten-year-olds, and the Swedish government of Chicago, and Tonton was so severely criticized that he left Sweden amid what the newspapers termed "the greatest scandal Stockholm ever had."
In Brooklyn, New York, one Rector William is Blackshear, a minister in his interim using a cup of wine (communion cup) for Negro members of St. Matthew's P. E. church.
Pastor Blackshear has been defended by his vestry and by the House of Bishops of his country, condemned universally by the local newspapers.
He can thank his stars he is in Brooklyn instead of Stockholm, which leads us to express the hope that more Swedes will come to the United States hereafter and fewer white Texans, come out of that state.

Aida Ward Up
Mrs. Aida Ward, New York and Paris stage, came home to Washington last week to spend a fortnight with her mother and her eleven-year-old son. The AFROWS Washington society editor re-represented Mrs. Ward was the most highly regarded visitor the Capital has seen for many moons, bridge parties, lunches, dinners and receptions following one another in a mad round of gaye. The AFROWS social activities, Mrs. Ward found time to be guest soloist Sunday morning in Second Baptist church, singing a spiritual that went straight to the hearts of her hearers, and Sunday evening gave a vaper concert in the same edifier. The people which attended both services attested the popularity of the singer and makes us wonder what the 'theatre will do if the church choir is ever able to pay such salaries as will attract concert singers. We greeted Mrs. Ward here and abroad are definite evidences that she has arrived. She is at the top of her profession.
However quite as important as rising from the twelveth to southwest Washington to the point where she is one of the principals in a Broadway musical comedy, is the manifestation of the ability to stay up.
The public applauds beauty, beauty, voice and buoyant art of the singer's heroines. But its demand so exacting that after five years, ten in rare cases, it turns away to new favorites.
If Mrs. Ward saves her earnings and guards her health, she may live to come back to quiet life in Washington for bread. Of course there is always the马路通轨 to quiet and contentment.
If she squanders health, there can be ahead of her such another tragedy as befall Florence Mills.

However, quite as important as rising from the humble home in southwest Washington to the point where she is one of the principals in a Bay Area theater, she is the manifestation of the ability to stay up.
The public applauds beauty, clothes, voice and buoyant vitality of its stage heroes. But its demand are the same. If she dresses, it turns away to new favorites. If Mrs. Ward saves her earnings and guards her health, she may live to come back to quiet life in Washington without worry about doctor's advice. If she dresses, it always the matrimonial road to quiet and contentment. If she squanders health, there can be ahead of her such another tragedy as befell Florence Mills.
Who Suffers?
A Baltimore physician was sentenced to the Atlanta, Georgia, federal penitentiary for a year and a day for selling narcotics recently. Last week a Washington physician was arrested, charged with performing an illegal operation.
The head of a family, a newly-married bridegroom, educated at great sacrifice and expense, flouts the criminal law and is punished. Immediately public sympathy is aroused for the criminal. The judge is bared because he was not lenient. The press is condemned because it publishes that the judge of this public sympathy is aroused because of the knowledge that the family and relatives of the lawbreaker must suffer with him.
In primitive African communities the whole family is her responsible for the misdeeds of others. Today we have moved a long way from such customs, but society still thoughtlessly scorns innocent folks who happen to be related to criminals.
The husband, the son, the father is in jail. He suffers for his crime. But his family agonize with them. They have had to sit in the court room to hear the public exposure of the crime. They have sat in the spotlight of public sorrow and disgrace. Then when the trial is over and sentence properly pronounced, bread-winner and loved one, to find work or depend upon charity.
These are they who suffer most from criminals: the wife whose husband was lover and hero; the mother whose son was always to her side; the father whose son was bullied that his boy might have a better chance.
A Baltimore physician was sentenced to the etiatic prison for a five-year and a day for selling narcotics recently. Last week a Washington physician was arrested, charged with performing an illegal
A large share of this public sympathy is aroused because of the knowledge that the family and relatives of the lawbreaker must suffer with him. African communities the whole family is held responsible for the misdeeds of any one of them. Today we have moved a long way from such customs, but society still thoughtlessly scorns innocent folks who happen to be related to criminals. The father is in jail. He suffers for his crime. But his family agonize with him. They have had to sit in the court room to hear the public exposure of the crime. They have had to be punished and grieve. Then when the trial is over and sentence pronounced they go home, bereft of a bread-winner and loved one, to find work or depend upon charity. These are people who suffer most from criminality, whose husband was lower and hero; the mother whose son was always to her only a child she had birthed; the father who toiled that his boy might have a better chance. If lawbreakers could picture the sorrow they would be spared many of the glorious crimes that are now of frequent occurrence.
Two Bad Spots
Baltimore has two undeveloped spots for which it must continually apologize. Strangely enough, both of them involve the city's relationship to children.
In the Chicheltown House of Reformation, in Prince Georges county, the city has two hundred boys, the most of them hired out to a number of brooms. They are living in dirt and disease with little chance for education or reformation. A similar situation exists at Melvale, the reform school for girls, where a power sewing machine is used to make boys' clothes that mistreats its wayward boys and girls usually neglects also its normal children.
How true this is in the case of Baltimore, Mr. Baldwin's school, the National Playground and Recreation Association, reminded us last week when he said that the Playground Athletic League of this city, with a budget of nearly $250,000 a year, "spends less than $30,000 a year in work among Negro children.
How true this is in the case of Baltimore, Mr. Ernest T. Atwell, associate director of the National Playground and Recreation Association, reminded us last week when he said that the city has a long history of the city with a budget of nearly $250,000 a year, spends less than $3,000 a year in work among Negro children.
This is the reason there is but one full time 24-hour handling colored work here. This is the reason there is the year-round play-field or playground for Negroes in Baltimore.
This is the reason why the city has but one oval swimming pool and no municipal beach. This is the reason why but two public schools
have gyms and none has a yard big enough for an athletic field or a running track. This is the ugly side. However, reform and improvement are around the corner. The Greek League, which asked McKenna to survey the city's recreation facilities, or lack of them, has sponsored also an interracial committee which includes among its members, Marie M. Marie BautesSmidt and Mrs. John W. Berton,rown and Dean John W. Hayward of Morgan College. They have assumed the job of changing the attitude of the city towards the free-time activities of the average boy and girl, and their successful handling of the situation means that Baltimore will have fewer delinquents to send to Chittenden and to Melvale.
However, reform and improvement are around the corner. The Urban League, which asked Mr. Atwell to survey the city's recreation facilities, asked the city's terracial committee which includes among its members, Mrs. Marie Bauernschmidt and Mrs. John Wesley Brown, white, City Councilman Walter S. Emerson, and Dean John W. Hayward. They have assumed the job of changing the attitude of the city towards the free-time activities of the average boy and girl, and their successful handling of the relations means that they have fewer delicacies to send to Cheltenham and to Melvale.
Pride in What Race?
E. J. S., white, a reader of the Baltimore Morning Sun had this to say last week in the Sun letterbox concerning the case of St. Matthew's P.E. church, New York, where he received a diplomat who gave the rector, Rev. William S. Blackshear, said they were not wanted: "You could not have gotten a Chinese, Japanese, or any other race on the face of the globe to have what these Negroes did. The Negro has no proper pride of race or any idea of what such a thing means. Give him the slightest bit of education and you will be able to intrude upon the members of what he instinctively feels is a highly favored and desirable race. "Every race known to civilized humanity, except the Negro, has a burning pride in itself and feels itself more than sufficient with the white race. This is, I presume, due to the fact that there is no race, except the Negro, that has not behind it a glorious history of achievement at some period in its life." A Frederick, Maryland, reader of the AFRO-AMERICAN used to this clipbing with the request: "Please answer it." We will, but we will, whether one with a congenital provincial as that exhibited by E. J. S., can understand it.
In the first place colored people have been members of St. Matthew's church since its beginning. This is true of many Northern as well as Southern churches, and they are asked out because the church, which is the property of the members, hires a new servant to preach to them, who happens to come from Texas? If the church professes Christianity, why any question of color or race?
Discussing race separation is another matter, will E. J. S. recite the laws of the German newspapers, singing societies and "Turnerweirs" that used to have such large membership in Baltimore? Is their disappearance a sign of lack of German pride, or is it not simply an evidence that America's melting pot is making Americans out of themselves? Granted that every race has pride except the Negro, will E. J. S. recite the reason for the anti-Chinese, anti-Japanese feeling in the western states, the reason for the laws forbidding the yellow race to intermarry with white people, the reason that white race are not admitted to the United States on the quota basis as are white Europeans?
In addition, E. J. S. is requested to speak at length and in a loud voice as to and where the five million half-breeds—mixtures—came from the United States, and where they went, enslaved Negroes compelled the strong white masters and mistresses to submit to them.
And finally, if a Negro has a white father or grandfather and a colored mother, in which race should he show pride? Might he not be proud of either or both, without permitting that pride to make a jackass out of him? As achievements run, it is difficult for the Negro to attract donors. Our white folks, like E. J. S., look at the kinky hair, the flat nose and thick lips of the African Sphinx and then class ancient Egyptians with the white race.

Maryland State Fair Worst in History Says this Reader.
To the Editor:
I was very much disappointed in the Maryland State Colored Fair. Your ads spoke so highly of it for a month. I went to see it and it was nothing. I went down there I saw the park very empty and after looking around I saw two couples sitting on a bench. I asked them where the exhibition was and they directed me to the hall. That was the first time that I heard that the fair opened at 10 o'clock. In the hall on a stand were one peek of white potatoes, one peek of sweet potatoes, one-fourth peek of peas, a peek of green apples, one bunch of carrots, a quarter of peanuts, one peek of peanuts as they were pulled from the earth.
Sometimes there is a slight variation in these hours but this is the usual schedule. Ed.
Maryland State Fair Worst in History Says this Reader.
To the Editor:
I was very much disappointed in the Maryland three-friday Fair. Your ads spoke so highly of it for a month. I went to see it and it was nothing.
When I went down there I saw the park very closely. I saw a man sitting on a bench. I asked them where the exhibition was and they directed me to the hall.
I asked when it opened and a man said that the fair opened at 10 a.m. I asked the pack of white potatoes, one peck of sweet potatoes, one-fourth peck of peas, a peck of green apples, one bunch of carrots, a quarter peck of onions and a bunch of peas as they were sitting on the bench. Across on the next bench were three jars of canned cherries, three bottles of tomato catup.
It was the worst attempt at a fair I have ever seen. It was so crowded that we chucked, pigeons, fancy and home cooking and handmade work, plenty of canned goods and lots of pleasure.
I came down from New York to visit the fair and instead of being the best, it was the worst fair in history.

Why a Parents-Teachers Association?
To the Editor:
Our school was established in the late 60's. Even since then, the parents and teachers have never co-operated as they should have a better school "For a better education, for a better race."
We have been depending absolutely upon the white race and what the board of education see fit that they should give us, and that was very little.
What a parents-teachers association could do.
We could have proper race books for our library swings, and it would be good to have a baseball and football for our growing boys, or if they don't desire the athletics, a mile reading room with proper race books.
And another essential thing is the monthly report of the teachers in properly training our children.

BISHOP MURRAY—FRIEND
Bv GEORGE F. BRAGG, Jr.
I think that the best answer to the recent "Blackshear" incident, was given, by way of anticipation, by Bishop H. His utterance at that time is very impressive at present, in view of the fact that his successor, Murray, has come to give to him the same. The presence of two colored clergymen among the pall bearers of the departed prelate give emphasis to the fact.
"And the Bishop Paret, in addressing his diocesan convention in 1889, used these strong and telling words:
"And we speak here, not exclusively but merely to the clergy. We dear brethren, are responsible before God for the soul of every black person in your parish, or within the possibilities of your pastor's reach, no less than to the clergy. But if, from that 'all', we exclude the colored们, we say that the church is not fitted for them, not able to grapple with that problem, and we are not able to reach them, and she practically gives them up to others, then we are simply bellys ourselves; we are bearing false witness against our own mother. Bylying, I am a pastor, and dishearted, not so much at the church's failure to win results, as to the almost entire failure to meet any necessary effort; at the cold weather, or the entire difference with the matter is treated."
The late Bishop Murray, so exceedingly anxious to do his full duty in this matter, asked me to help him in the chapel, for special needs of the race, not covered by existing canons, and to keep him informed, and advised, wherein he could no longer be too numerous to mention. He ever showed himself as thoroughly blind to the "color line." I recall an incident, now that he has been a pastor, when I was the head of the supervisors of city churches. When we had completed the task, he called up that office by telephone to inform them of the request, official documents of the church. I could not hear the question asked from the other end of the line, but I readily inferred from the question. The question must have been, as to the willingness of the white persons mentioned to serve on the board with colored persons. He asked me, "Do you, they will serve, if not we will get those who will, and immediately hung up the receiver." The colored people of Maryland have lost a friend in the passing of John Gardener Murray, a native born son of this Commonwealth.
Rev. Mr. Bennett's Letter on Leaving the Episcopal Church is a Broad Statement.
I was interested in an article published in your last edition by the Rev. E. R. Bennett, headed, "Race Will Abandon Protestant Episcopal Church." I thought that a pretty broad statement I have always attended the P.E. church and always feel at home wherever I go, white or colored. I have always been courteously received. In instances, they have gone to great extremes in giving the denominational churches the authority to accept the apostles, especially those of missions, if this isn't true. Many of our churches were made by the help of the sister denominational churches. We all know of the tireless efforts of Bishop Manning and Brent of the Diocese of St. Thomas, who were the church and the Negro in this country, the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts commenced work among our people, and for years this now renewable society had the instruction of the race in its special care and organization among our people was-St. Thomas's Episcopal church, at Philadelphia, in 1794. This was followed by St. Phillips, New York, in 1819, and St. James's, Baltimore. Church has always ministered to our needs, and in the South, before the Civil War, great numbers were baptized and became communicants. There was a reaction, perhaps a natural one, after the war, and the church was able to accept to meet the problem on any larger scale.
As a result, the majority of the race left the church. Today vast numbers are organized into great Baptist and Methodist bodies. These delegates are called "white men" because their appeal to the emotional nature and because these bodies are independent of white association or control. Many of our people are sly of joining a white man's church or a white man's religion.
In more recent years, however, the church has made great efforts to meet her responsibilities to our people, and today we have a large number of 280 churches and mission stations. We have one bishop, Bishop Demby, suffragan of Arkansas, and 140 priests who are leaders in their community. We are going to have more and more. It takes.
Because Senators Blease and Helfin make things unpleasant for Congressman Brown, we are displeased with all displeased toward the Negro? The principle is the same. We are all behind Mr. DePriest. Why can't we stand behind Bishop Demby and our priests? Because the Rev. Blackstein discounted congregations in Washington, does that mean the end of religious tolerance? That is absurd. We're too race conscious.

We are Shocked by burden of Big Churches and Sham Institutions, Says Writer.
"We need in this country a new spirit of tolerance in reference to all religious beliefs and activities," declares a speaker in the Congressional Assembly of Religious Freedom Sunday in honor of Thomas Jefferson's 187th birthday.
Since the religious breach with the Church of England and the migration to America has been heretofore our lives, as a race, have been dominated by everything but religious freedom.
To worship in the denomination of our choice, we must be faithful (or, That alone, is just cause for the passage of the bill, but have not our very lives been shackled and crushed by the financial burden of big churches and sham institutions? We need an intelligent and sympathetic clergy. A clergy that will not place upon a small, but firm, foundation the massive grandeur of a superficial structure that totters with every collection of God and struggle while I enjoy the riches of God's goodness and live in luxury with my high powered automobile," but a clergy that travels a sure path slowly, loves the water of existence and whose lives are marked with ordinary comfort, for if one knows that his home is his own and if one has no fear as to where his next meal emerges, religious freedom is his and he will take advantage of his God gift.
A new spirit of tolerance is imperative, for the Negro is mortgaging his life in the hands of his children by his ecclesiastical poverty. If it is not secured, religion, to the younger generation, as preached by the church, is threatened by hereditary beliefs, and in its stead a doctrine of sane, mutual beliefs and human understanding will be evolved. After all, would not such a revolution be best?

To the Editor:
In the issue of September the fourteenth, Mr. Haleen Charlesworth said: "Let cur slogan be, 'For a better education.'"
Had he been more interested in the construction of the colored graded school than in criticisms, doubt the cornerstone of the school was been laid, and the building named to suit him.

"This process of elimination by expiration is going on in all of the departments. . . Mr. Hoover, if he completes his double term, as he most probably will, will leave only a lingering few, here and there. Segregation will thus be ended with a vengeance."
MR. HOOVER AND THE CIVIL SERVICE.
I believe that it will be generally conceded that Hoever Hoover will not give much attention to the political aspect of the race question. His lines of policy have already been laid down. He brings business principles into government affairs, selects public officials just as the business corporations and efficiency. His selection of the personnel of the Farm Board shows this policy, pae excellence. Neither section, sex, nor partisanship seemed to have exerted any influence on the race. He was a colored man on the board. This he did not do, for the reason, as it lay in his mind, that such selection would not best promote the end of the view. Interior Department. Dr. Hoever last campaign very much was said about segregation of colored clerks in the federal departments. Such a hue and cry was not the campaign manager, took notice of it, and affected to have certain complaints remedied so far as concerned the Interior Department over which
The matter was brought to candidate Hoover. Hoover calculated to cause him great embarrassment. The would be President acted with prompt and impetuousness, and calculated of Commerce, then under his charge, the Atlanta Constitution secured from Dr. Emmett. Hoover, upon an opinion of Mr. Hoover's action and published the matter in a way to give the transcripts to Mr. Hoover. But whatever the motive, the acs speaks for itself. I published an account of it in the New Republic at
Under the existing press and strain, the Secretary of Commerce urged the Senate to inquire in a bit of political strategy. Abraham Lincoln was adept in the use of the principles of statesmanship. The committee which waited upon Secretary Thomas, the envinculte, called his attention to the injustices done by rabid manipulation in the war. He awarded ignorance of the procedure complained of, and as it did not at that time, not particularly pushed. But now Mr. Hoover is in complete control of the war, and his pouser to put a stop to departmental segregation and to discrimination in the Civil Service machine.
Distinct Grievances.
I have always believed that in equity in the Civil Service examination, the degree dignified he upon colored clerks should be dealt with as separate and distinct grievances. The one has to be dealt with by the government service, the other with handling him when in. At one time I induced the N. A. A. C. to look into the devious ways of the Civil Service, so as to secure a definitely ascertained basis of fact with regard to its unfair treatment of colored applicants. Then as now, we had to rely upon common knowledge facts in its unfair treatment, theigator was switched from securing facts about discrimination in appointments to inquiring into segregation. The sum total of the result was
Renew Appeal.
During the past five or six years I have written and spoken so frequently in Civil Service that I find myself in a similar predicament to that which confronts me on the issue of probation. I have written and spoken words or combination of words with which to further present and press the cause.
I have presented the matter directly to the President and to the Civil Service Commission. I have written and spoken words or combination of words to further present and press the cause.
I have stressed it in white and Negro press. I have importuned Perry Howard, the president of the Civil Service Reform League, Scott, Bob Church and John R Hawkins and the committee which he heads. I have stressed public and religious organizations to use their public influence to keep this matter before the President. This I have been delayed but not defeated. I here and now renew the appeal and the in-portunity to all those who have worked both singly and in combination.
Strategic Opportunity.
It seems to me that now we have a strategy to help him and Mr. Howes is fair and square upon every issue he faces. If he discounts Ben Davis and Perry Howard, he frankly tells them to end segregation to end segregation in his departments will surely put an end to the process of cheating him and a chance to get a public service.
Mr. Hoover is committed by his own declaration to an equal opportunity for all without regard to faith or race. He is willing to squarify up to him. The black man is invited by public announcement by the government to enter a competition for a good faith and passes with prescribed-credit above a many white competitor. When the time for appointment under the eyes of the appointing officer which has the same effect that a black face would have on a hotel clerk in the Georgetown Negro district the assignment which he has won by merit. Does any one believe that President Hoover would stand for
Elimination.
Hitherto the administration has out-generated us. We have centered us on the problem, but been assured that the evil complained of would be remedied. Several sinister actions were taken in direction. President Coolidge gas solemn assurance to that effect. But they were playing with us as the enemy, and the wily politician knows fully well that segregation will shortly end, because colored clerks left to be segregated. This process of elimination by expiration is going on. We must have colored clerks left to be segregated. Mr. Coolidge left many fewer colored clerks in office than he found there when he assured us that he would complete his double term, as he most probably will. will leave only a lininger few here, and Segregation thus be ended with vengeance.

The influence of accent has been developed in this principle, P. Horace Tear has laid down three general principles which have been generally adopted as guides in accent practice and will be discussed in later talks.
In the meantime a word may be used in the formation of the hyphen in compounding. In general, the process of the formation of o, comma, or hyphen is (1) two words, (2) two words hyphenated, (3) two words run together into one.

vast store.
And may I be so favored to make
Of it a too scanty sum a little more.
Let me not hurt, by any selfish dees
of love. The heart of the word of
foe or friend:
No would I pass unseeing, worthy
Or sin by silence when I should dee
or sin by silence when I should dee
However meager be our worldly wealth.
Let me give something that will aid kind.
A word of courage or a thought of death.
Dearness as I pass for troubled hearts to find.
at me tonight look back across the spat

Best of some good act to beast or man.

Rosh Hashanah and Negro Grocery Stores.
"I wish every Saturday and Sunday was Rosh Hashanah," declared a busy lady l娇 in a race-owned grocery store at the corner of Caloum街 and Riga street. Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, closed up ninety-five per cent of the grocery stores in the thickly wooded area. The section and brought enough traction the few race-owned stores in the section to carry them for a month. The women and men of the group, than one half of every one of the 4,000,000 dollars that are paid yearly, remain as long as six hundred colored pockets before they leave the race by way of the grocery store.
If a race-owned grocery store can buy a sugar, butter, and eggs when Jewish store owners observe Rosh Hashanah they sell them 365 days in the year.
Don't blame the Jewish storekeeper for our failure to build up our warehouse, but she has a right to store this store on the corner and go out for our trade. BUT SO HAVE COLORED YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN. On Calhoun street, between Laurens and Edmondson avenue, there is an average of two Jewish grocery to the block. And in this same street there is one race owned grocery. Ninety-nine cents out of every dollar spent in these stores are spent by colored folk. They provide fifty jobs for fifty young men and men who will graduate from vocational and other schools next Jura.
Can We Produce a Catholic Saint?
"Priests and Catholic saints have made themselves," writes a white man or woman who wished to believe that the great Catholic church would stand in the way of any man or woman who wished to pinnacle of an exalted sainthood. "There are thousands of colored Catholics," he says, "and there are thousands of white Catholics and Christian zeal and war, some of them should not force their own way through to exalted recognition. They have made many priests, but the church has made few of its real white saints. These have made them saints." You must admit that there is something reasonable about this. It amounts to the product of Catholic saint? It is not a question of brains and efficiency: we have all of these brains and we have; but it must be admitted that the general idea of religious service among most young men and women is the sacrifice and self-abnegation required for the building of that life-history which is recogniz-entilling the person to sainthood.
The great Baptist, Methodist and other Protestant denominations find it difficult to get the most efficient young men to enter the ministry, chiefly because of the necessity of most Protestant ministers are flowy beds of ease compared with what some Catholic priests face and all seem willing to face—to say nothing of the marydromy introduced most of their sainted souls. Over at the Maryland penitentiary, for instance, is an excellent example of a Catholic minister to bury his life with men and women who need him. There is a place in this world through which men and women may still work their way to spiritual adoration. They must take up the cross themselves. The Catholic church can and should help Negro boys who aspire to the priesthood, but if in the future there evolves a Catholic saint of the same race he be made He will make himself.
A Great English Premier Visits.
The question of world peace and armament reduction may not come close enough home to most of us, but it is also a key visit of Ramsay MacDonald, England's great labor; premier, who on American soil this week, but the first to visit the United States thrill up the spine of every impressed human being in this country. MacDonald, a laborer, and the son of a laborer, is at the helm of England's far-flung empire. England bows to royalty, but royalty bows to laborers. The first eight men who organized the labor organization in England, which grew into the party which voted MacDonald into power, are the most monumental convict ship, now on exhibition in Baltimore, for their "rash" deed. More than 200 years ago it cost a laborer a prison term to dare form an organization which would ask that his wages be raised and that his company be given to a player to impose any kind of working conditions that he wished.
Today, labor sits at the conference table and is heard. MacDonald comes to the United States to confer with President Hower on the question of how many guns nations shall carry Big and powerful nations are still allowed to force weaker nations submit to their will, and their will is generally that the weaker be their hewers of wood and drawers. If working me 1 in America and Europe understood just to what extent the bloody business of war is imposing burdens on them, they have a result that have a result that have a result of their toll. THERE WOULD BE ONE WAR TO END WAR. MacDonald could make them know, even war lords are willing to let them
In 1914, if MacDonald had come to America, he would have called a Bolshevist and put prison for the things he wanted in 1929.

"BLUE SHIRTER KILLED BEFORE WIFE AND CHILD
White Anti-Negro Editor Slain in Florida Office.
JACKSONVILLE, Florida. (C N S) — "Billy" Parker, white, editor of "the Blue Shirt, a publication of the chamber of commerce of the white working class," edited in this city, and former editor of the Menace, nationally known anti-Catholic journal, of Aurora, Missouri, was shot to death in his office Saturday by W. Harvey Jackson, white, who resented an editorial on the race question which appeared in a recent issue, in which he was ridiculed.
Jackson, who had been associated with Parker, writer on the staff of the "Menace," disagreed with Parker's exposition of white supremacy. The split came, followed by scathing editorials from the pen of Parker, which Jackson stood until the editor became "perilous."
CHILD LOOKS ON.
When the recent issue of the journal appeared defaming Jackson in an editorial on the race question, he called at the office of the "scuriorous journal, and shot his wife, editor of his wife and daughter, who are also connected with the staff of the paper.
CHALLENGED DEPRIEST.
The Blue Shirt put in its first appearance this spring. Its first issues contained defamatory editorials about Congressman, Mr. Presley, and the challenge to him to "come on down South, and ride home in a box." A single page often contains the word "nigger" more than fifty times.
When notice of Mr. DePriest's shirt went out, the Blue Shirt said:
"Take my advice, nigger, and don't do it. If you'd come South, I would almost bet you'll go back to the black belt in a box. You niggers of Jacksonville, be careful, don't invite nigger DePriest here, for you may start something you won't be able to stop."
The publication is the official organization of the Blue Shirts of America, "a white Protestant organization" which stands for: "White Supremacy and Segregation of the Races, Free Speech, Free Press and Free Association, Government, Compulsory Education through the American Public Schools, for every child until he or she graduates from the grammar school. Purity in Politics, Better Health and Labor. The Botherhood of Man. A job for Every Worker with Wages that will Supply all of the Necessities and some of the Luxuries of Life.

UNDERGROUND ESCAPE
STATION BURNS
RACINE, Wisconsin (CNE)—Memories of the "underground railway," by which route slaves were able to reach Canada and New York before the War of the Rebellion, were recalled here recently when a station on the "railway" burned. The records disclosed that the sanctuary for slaves was a secret cavern beneath the regular cellar. The entrance was through a cleverly concealed trap-door in the building, no connection with the usual basement.
Slaves were smuggled in at dawn and were taken to travel through the night.

Roy Lewis Charged With "Kiting Check" and Taking Auto.
JUDGE IS DETECTIVE
Alleged Underworld King Arrested in Newark
ATLANTIC CITY.—A meek-voiced very dark man, his slight form disguised in a huge, salt-and-pepper mackintosh; a black fedora pulled over; a forehead, and belly dressed in gray tortoise-rimmed sun spectacles was dismissed in Magistrate Almond's court Thursday morning on charges of "kiting a check" and the unlawful car on which payments of $8 a month are due.
Roy Lewis, alias, "the Tamper Kid," alias "the Underworld King," who will be accused from Atlantic City to Newark, has been sought for in vain for thirty days.
Magistrate Allmond, accompanied by constable Wilson Turner, with this team, took the tank kid together with his alleged mistress, Kate Lewis. They were brought to Atlantic City where Isaac Nutter, attorney, representing the defendants, produced a receipt for $50 from UPS, which cost $50 wired the motor company on September 10th but undelivered.
On the strength of this Lewis was permitted to clear himself of the bad cheek charge which also amounted to by making it good there and then.
After all matters were arbitrated, the kid admitted that he had the biggest, ugliest cheek charge arresting every man around his vicinity in Newark who happened to be driving an Auburn car.
"You only got me this time because I had to be off my guard. I was standing on the corner talking about a deal of $400 which you stopped me from getting. That is, you only detained me, because I'm going back and get it. Last week, I had 10 numbers in Washington for $4000."
Lewis invited Judge Allmond to stop at the reputable establishments and fashionable jewelry shops to inquire as to whether or not his credit was good. The magistrate reported that the man's name was W. H. H. H. and had had Cadillacs, Lincoln's, a Packard and now this Auburn.
He added that if he had not been absolutely sure that the machine was returning to work with him, he would have permitted it to leave that city.

JURY AWARDS $11,000 FOR LOST FOOT
Philly School Boy Was Run Down by Milk Truck Last March.
JURY OUT THREE HOURS
Truck Driver Admitted Lad
Had Green Light.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. — Capes Dummore, 16 year old high school student, of West Philadelphia, was awarded a verdict of $11,000 by a jury after deliberating three and a half hours in Judge Stern's court Tuesday.
Raymond Pace Alexander, attorney, had filed suit for damages against the Scott-Powell Milk company, and one Charles Russell, alleging that the driver had resulted in an accident in which the defendant's truck ran over the right foot of Dunmore resulting in the amputation of that member. The driver had resulted in an accident in which the defendant's truck ran over the right foot of Dunmore resulting in the amputation of that member. The accident occurred at 56th Avenue and the boys crossed Lancaster Avenue. Both sides admitted that the green traffic light favored the boys, and that traffic on Lancaster Avenue was slowing down. The defense maintained that their truck was standing still awaiting a change in lights and that Dummore was injured as he slipped and struck the rear wheel as the truck started formation.
Dunmore was called to the stand three times and spent over one hour at the court. He failed under severe cross-examination. Other impressive testimony was given by his schoolmates. William Harris, Jr., a graduate of Harvard, wrestled of Dr. R. P. Wright.

Musical Development. The Radio and Musical Training. Youth and Music. Junior Church Choirs.
Consideration of the many contributing elements and factors which tend to foster and perpetuate the love and appreciation of that which is best in the world's music among the members of our particular group, brings to one's mind many phases of a rather complex problem.
To begin with, many members of our racial group seemingly have musical possibilities which are practically limitless. There are members of the Negro race possessing rare musical abilities, nothing to improve their heaven-sent gifts.
On the other hand many possessing a modicum of musical feeling and appreciation are willing to spend time, money and effort to improve their abilities. Baltimore, like other cities has many such real lovers of music. Music lovers of the type just described at times refrain from every form of musical activity from a professional standpoint, although so much of their life is so, and oftentimes possess much knowledge in a given musical field.
Radio and Musical Training
Secondly, many of our urban dwellers are recently from country towns and villages where we see progressive people attend sight-singing classes and become members of town bands which later form the major portions of the best municipal musical organizations. We are also familiar with the bands and orchestras of today are former country boys. The introduction of the radio has somewhat changed all this. It is the experience of many musicians in the country that interfere seriously with practice periods of embryonic musicians.
Youth and Music.
Another important contributing factor in the continuation of interest in the development of music of the better sort is the musical playlet developed by the types often presented by the several public elementary schools of Baltimore is particularly stimulating to the youth of community. Unfortunately, the churches of our community are unable to provide any sort of program to hold their young folk. Time was when church interest would provide opportunity through its different forms of entertainments which would encourage the youth, that was worth while and uplifting. In some communities some leaders seems to think that wildly ranting about the tendencies of this particular age and denouncing the educated youth, that is, the notion of being ultra progressive, and what is more, that such a procedure is "the whole duty of man."
Junior Choirs
Many of the junior choirs of the city are in a small measure attempting to nurture the youth of the land where they are more or less musically inclined. Too often these organizations flourish while their founders and leaders are in the city, and the leader is in any way crossed or interfered with her or she immediately quits for a season and members are persisted in remain in the city for a period, ninety-five per cent temperament and the other five per cent of the personality is made up of conceit and ignorance. Of our churches have junior choirs that are a credit to themselves and the community which they endeavor to serve, notwithstanding the severe indictment that they receive, and which is in every sense of the word true of many of our local leaders.

NEGRO IS THE REAL AMERICAN, SAYS COUNT KEYSERLING
NEW YORK.—"The American Negro is a purely American type and is much more convincing as such than any living white type." This is the statement of the celebrated philosopher-traveler-teacher, Count Herman Keyserling, writing in the October Atlantic Monthly on "What the Negro Means in His Life," as summarized by the N.A.A.C.P. Count Keyserling declares that there "has never been anything like the American Negro in Africa" and the American Negro is "as opposed to his forbears, as much as any middle Westerner of old pioneer stock can claim to be." Count Keyserling further writes that "almost all expressions of American emotionalism seem to be of Negro origin", and that the white American expresses the same emotion, later, "there is nothing improbable in the expectation, considering the emotional and artistic under-endment of the white American race, that the first original genius of the New World will belong to the black." White America's "lack of original vitality." Count Keyserling traces to the city civilization of the country and the divorce of Americans from the soil. The danger being that these states may only some day be brought under control eventually. "If the white may endure his present line of development, then America will end by becoming the black continent of modern days."
DEMPEY WOODSON
In Chicago Miss Woodson is well-known in theatrical and cabaret circles. The Sunset Cafe there. This is the leading cabaret of the Windsy City, and of course furnishes its share of modem-themed cabaret. Miss Woodson will be known in private life as Mrs. Bob (Uke) Williams.
NEGRO IS THE RE SAYS COUNT KEY
NEW YORK—"The American Negro is much more convincing as such than a statement of the celebrated philophoebe Keysering writing in the October Aloe Means to America."

NEW YORK—Dr. Charles Francis Potter, (white), launched a new relational humanism as the First Humanist Society. He cled the following major points of difference between Humanism and other creeds: Old—The chief end of man is to glorify God. Old—The chief end of man is to improve himself both as an individual and as a race. Old—Religion has to do with the supernatural. New Religion has to do with the natural.
Old—Man is inherently good and of worm of the dust.
New—Manis inherently good and of infinite possibilities.
Old-Man should submit to the will of God.
New—Man should not submit to injustice or suffering without protest and should endeavor to remove its causes

MAMBA'S DAUGHTERS by DU BOSE HEYWARD Author of PORGY A Story of Sacrifice, Romance, Humor and Tragedy
INSTALLMENT II.
Employing the mincing step and decorous bearing that had become almost second nature to her, and that she considered in character in a white folks "nigger." Mamba took her way downtown. When she had travelled for twenty minutes she turned the Meeting street into a narrow lane shadowed by high buildings that led to the edge. She stantly was noticeable in her manner. She dropped the mincing step for a long, souling stride, and breathed deeply of the damp, coolness that the damp hienceen lichtened above her. A long, high escaped her lips, and her eyes narrowed to slits of amused insouce. A waterfront "nigger" now, and a waterfront her own with
Waart smells blew toward her down the narrow alley; sulphurous fumes from the mud flats. fish from the snacks on the beach. the stench of a he-goat smelled delightfully and looked about her.

Oh, Ah jest been tibib tibib my white folks a little outin tib de seenso", she throw back at melcofind, sprawled flat, and came from an emaciated can and his teeth at her. She cursed it with a deep and fluent affection, and it recognised her kinship with a gay bark and a snap at her skirt.
Mamba turned south at EASC Bay, and walked along in the shade the day before, and had been occupied by the aristocracy but which had long since forgotten their proud heritage and gone black. This was home. Everywhere there was a shuttered mound, surrounded municipally, which settles upon a house of high estate that has fallen into a white slum was conspicuously hacking here. When a shuttered mound it goes into being a one of no green-or vermilion. New spots of plaster were dabbed with pink or yellow wash, and that particular tint of cerulean made by the groove of dropping washing bluing into their whitewash was splashed harshly over gateposts and cookshop fronts. Nor was there in the faces of the mound or the smouldering rebellion of the white who has fallen to slum life. Here grievances against Fate were forgotten in song. Tomorrow would be time enough to have been scourged into the police, and gay affairs. The corrosion of hidden sin did not mark the traces, for the consciences that might have been sitting in judgment had never been scourged into the police. It was caught and was innocent. How marvelously simple. No wonder that even the moon heat there were songs in the houses that had passed.
Arriving at a narrow archway between soaring brick structures the old woman entered and presently stood beneath the arch, coot beneath its surrounding walls. Several women looked up from along the interacing clotheslines and halted her. "Well, if here ain't Mamba broke," she replied. "Polie," she replied happily, "berry poly. Tank Gawd. What Hagar?" Two of the women tilted, and the one who had spoken to Mamba broke out and replied, "Sheet yoju' dunn' wolless out mouth." Instantly the visitor's expression changed. "What wrong, she ain't drunk again?" out suddenly. Mamba broke out suddenly in a loud bullying voice that was oddly at variance with the pain in her eyes: "Ah bet she'd te de hide off that dark black debil that fuf a week wodn' she ain't drunk."
Mamba seized the heavy shoulders with her thin fingers and attempted to shake the neat bulk. Then she wiped the washstand, returned with the pitchfork in hand, and quantify of water into the sleeping floor. Slovely the eyes opened, and instantly an observer would have by them that the two women were in bed. Mamba flung herself forward as though in an effort to drive her words into the bulbated brain: "You owe me a promise; not to get drunk while you are now 'an Ah fin' you-like dis. Wake up and tell me—what's Lissa?" The woman moved her arm heavily and drew the covers aside disclosing the face of her pale age. Mamba pounced on the face form and carried it to the wunder. The hot afternoon sun ill light over the baby's face, and she was again, warm, and of that peculiarly live-brown quality so unlike the eyes of the usual Negro, linking the child unmistakably with the
The baby threw its arms around Mamba's neck, and she hid her face against it, muttering softly into its ear, and stroking its skin, which unlike either that of its mother or grandmother, was of a light bronze hue. Hagar was up now. She lurched over so slippery as she crossed to the washstand, filled a dipper with water, and dashed it, over herself

She shivered, but the shock brought her tremendous vitality surging back waking her drugged nerves, stiffening and co-ordination she had finished dressing her hands were steady. She was childishly shameless and repentant. She said: "Ah sorry, Ma stay straight 'til she's night but when on de Pilot Boy,迫 hab plenty on lcker an' dey done drunk me.

Several women, hearing the laughter and realising that whatever seem there might have been was over, came in. Mamba was loiling back in a wrecked rocking chair with the child in her arms. She called to one of the men in the room, his bowtie ask Yui. Scluth. How much time Jedge Harkness gib yo' man de la time he put um up?" "De las't time?" "Sho. de las't time.

"Well, den, pull yo' chair up here
an' lisson, tuh dis."
Then Mamba gave them the story of the judge's teeth.
The room shook with spontaneous African laughter. Hands slapped backs and thighs. In the court home-coming men were calling to their women. The sea-damp evening air swept cooler than the warm, moist air by heat was cooking cabbage for supper. For the old woman life's tide was at the food again. Existence had its compensations, after all.
Autumn in Charleston. A keen sweet wind travelling over the roofs, causing the leaves on the great trees in the Battery garden to glisten, gliding the choppy waves in the bay with white. Residents returning after the long summer in Flat Rock. White Sulphur Springs, lilac paganas and nightshirts from the furniture that had been dozing the days away in hot darkness. Rugs going down. Cedar and campfire piles. Battery coming to life again. New people appearing here and there, renting old houses, secretly purchasing antiques, creating a museum, creating the illusion of indigenousness. Housewives, with an energy that was itself a fatally admissible admission, hustling a Duncan Phyfe. Very effective, these old keeper of the family, born in "born in the family" meeting the guest with a Sheffield card tray. And economical, too, for they could be obtained at from five to ten dollars, where you can imitate haunt-boy would have cost several hundred dollars.
When the Wentworths returned to town they found that the large apartment on the south and which had long remained vacant had been renovated and occupied. Through the open windows came sounds of irresistible energy being applied to obstinate walls and a loud, clear voice rolling its Rs.
Mrs. Wentworth drew on her
gloves with an air of resignation.
"Come on, Polly," she said, "we
must get to the airport."
"The man looked at her from under grizzled eyebrows. After a moment he said: "Dey is de Wentworths Miss." "Is that all you know? The care says that they are the Wentworths sisters. But her strangely 'Aln isn't say dat dey is de Wentworths, Miss. What Ah is da

Then, after a pause during which he looked hopefully toward her for some sign of understanding, he added, "Dey li in de little brick house nex 60° of understanding, he keeps the summer boarding house and has that silly-looking, long-legged girl. She turned to the maid with her abrupt, efficient manner. Tell her that she was at home. But the maid had not reached the door before she was stopped. "Walk a moment. I'll go down. It is just as well to be on speaking terms with one's neighbours. Stay and help james with that red and white dress. The maid said that I am wanted on the telephone." When the maid entered the drawing room with the message, the Wentworths were sitting very erect in their Chinese Chippendale chairs smiling wooden smiles, and Mrs. J. Attkinson was doing the talking.
"Just imagine" she was saying, "taking boarders all summer. And Mrs. Raymond tells me that you take in fancy sewings too. That doesn't have some work to be done. Yes, really, you must let me ask you to help me mark my new linens. What is it, Mary? Oh, the telephone. Yes. In a moment. Oh, must you really go? Well, thank you, calling. Very neighbour. I'm sure.
In the street Mrs. Wentworth said: "Well, that's done. Let's forget it." But Polly answered: "Well, that's done. Let's talk down to you in that! My good woman't tone of voice. Be a good Christian and forget if you want to. But I am going to remember. The Arkinson call the three Wentworths were together in their dining room. They had been discussing the matter, and it was so on their tongues that glow for one of her many crumbs. "Well, there's no use dwelling on the importance of other people," she was kind. For me they do not exist. That is all." She turned to depart then she gave a slight start. A stranger she met stood and stood still in the room watching them. "If you are waiting to see Maum Netta she will be in the kitchen presently, she please as you go close the door.
But the woman advanced toward the little group and stood looking from one to the other with the man, one who was a man of the moment, and her keeping. She was of medium height and weight and had about her an air of eminent, almost assertive impeachability. Her dress was covered by a layer of scarlet sequins that covered her a white starched cap with a ruffle that shaded her eyes. Her most salient characteristics were a large mouth with firmly compressed lips and squares at the lower edge of the face that showed an expression of grim severity. During a moment of profound silence she stood surveying the group, then slowly and deliberately she smiled, revealing a deep devotion to an experience. Saint's voice, long-drawn and incredulous, broke the silence. "Well I'll be damned!" The visitor bent double in a paroxysm of silent laughter.

Breaking up Another's Home
THE LIFE OF BERT WILLIAMS No 18
A man holding a dog.
It was during this period of illness that Bert made famous his song masterpiece, "Puppy Dog." In this he held a live mountable pup in his arms while he sang a sorrowful song, frequently moving his audience to tears.
Polly came immediately to the point: "Where in the world did you get Mama?" Mama, a kind gentleman whut lub be "gigher" dgb dem tuh me. gdwb bless umi!" A picture flashed into Sain't mind, into his umbrella, and Harkness in full flight, and Mama swinging aboard the Jim Crow car as it gathered speed. "Yes, he did," he said. "He only sparked the understanding leaped around the circle. Maum Netta had entered a moment before, and it brought her up standing, with her hands on her knees, confounded Mrs. Wentworth with a simultaneous compulsion to laughter and the obligation to be stern. It took Saint and Polly and flung them on the table in convulsions of mirth.
Almost immediately Mamba recovered her composure and stood up. She was not then to be amusing now. Four years had gone into building toward this moment; four years of caelopery, flattery, clowning, and mischief, with hands on her stomach, had been given only as an unmistakable revelation of an identity to which she belonged by her body. She was emerging as a new entity now. The strange assortment of accessories that had gone into her make-up, cast-off clothes of Mrs. Browne, the jurist, manner seduously copied from Maum Netta, apron and cap from God knew where, were losing their separate identities, merging in the future to express.
Finally, while the Wentworth watched, the transformation was congruently departed, and Mamba stood before them recreated in her own conception of the ideal toward which she had been striving. In her own words, she dominated the little room in which she had until so recently come and gone on sufferance. She brought a sense of the mesphere that seemed subtly to disturb the ancestral rhythm of thought and action. The room was very quiet. The abrupt change from monochromatic to monochromatic, Mrs. Wentworth cleared her throat. Polly sat with a blank, mystified star. Only Saint seemed to be able to give a smile into the shadowy eyes under the stiff cap ruffle.
When Mamba spoke, her voice was low and tense. She must have thought her speech suited her to care, helping. She was desperately in earnest. The years of palver were over. These white people had given her much, but she had been careful to pile up the countless little uncompensated attacks against her. The war was favour. There need be no talk about it. Real white folks did not need to bargain. She knew and they knew. Now for the accounting, she tuh get uh job now. Miss Wentworth. Ah gots tuh get money fuh something 'picolar. An Ah gots tuh fin' uh white boss whun look attun my chillen when dey meets dy trouble. Yo 'an' Mauma

We have a very interesting letter this week:
My dear Mrs. Jerome:
I have been married for twenty years and have grown children. About five years ago I met a man who, with the passing of time, I have come to love. He also has a family of children and his wife and I are friends; but he now beams me to run away with him. I like his wife and I do not wish to hurt her as I am sure it would break her heart if we did this. Now I am my husband for he is good to me and we never quarrel. But on the other hand, I want to please the man I love; and if I don't go with her, may lose him to mother. The kids are all fond of him and this makes me very jalous. Recently he went away

"Tell me," she said, "why are you doing this?" Ah tuk me. Miss, Ah kin tuk care ob Mamba. But time is change-in. 'Nigger got tuk git diff' kind ob sense now tuk git long. Ah gots daughtuh, an she gots daughtuh, an she gots daughtuh, an she gots daughtuh, born fuh trouble. Ah gots tuk be ready when de time come."
"And this granddaughter of yours, how old is she?"
"Yuh 'membuh when Ah fus come an bring dem flower fuh Litchi." Her listener nodded.
"Dat when she born."
"Aw go on and give old Mamba the letter," urges Saint.
Polly's eyes were dancing with excitement. "I've got it, Mother," she cried. "We'll get her some recombinant DNA from the kinsons. She's pretty hateful. Mamba, but she's rich as all get-out, and she's dying to be thought somebody, and it up for you, you must promise, to get everything out of her you can."
"I think that is a disgraceful proposition," said Mrs. Wentworth. "In fact, I am so surprised and shocked that I will leave at once and attend her party. I am in her room. She opened the door, then turned back for a moment, and the three in the room saw the corners of her mouth twitching irresistibly as she added. And I want all to be allowed to do anything in some do not do anything that you would be ashamed of."
She turned to Mamba. "Good-ye, and good luck," she said. "Remember we are old friends, and come and see her." The old woman gave her one of her looks, so uncanny in their power to convey emotion. The eyes were a little misty, but behind that there was a smile. She said a little shakily. Then she whirled her skirts in a courtesy, essayed laughter, and ended by wiping an eye in a corner of her apron.
"Mother's a dear, but she's a fraid cat," commented Polly. "She's a briery," amended Saint as he rummaged for pen, ink, and paper in the secretary. "All right, he smelt a moment later.

MIDDLEAGED.
If you were younger I would say go with him. I gather that he must also be middledaged and probably his wife and your husband are also past first youth. Therefore, you have all established views and habits. The breaking up of the two homes will for this reason cause much pain. The memories of your first marriage and of your children, whom you will probably not see again, are liable to haunt your new adventure. If you are a very strong woman and you will be very useful and the man himself very horrible and trustworthy then you would have a chance of happiness. But if you have a deep sense of obligation, and your letter infers, you are afraid you will be miserable thinking of all the pain you have caused.
I gather, too, that you fear some other woman may get your sweetheart you do not. You will be able to trust him. No don't go. I fear you would risk too much.
Ira Aldridge, Negro Dramatic Genius
A
But it was in the dark-skinned rolessuch as Othello that he was best.
By J. A. ROGERS International Correspondent and Author.
HE Chevalier Ira Frederick Aldridge, Necro America's most illustrious son, was born in the opening years of the nineteenth century, probably in 1810.
Like many another great man who rose from humble surroundings and left no autobiography, his early life is clouded in conjecture.
There are two stories. One is that he was born in New York City, the son of an African prince and a colored American woman. This prince, it is said, was the sole survivor of a revolt, in which the king, his father, together with his family, had been massacred. Rescued by missionaries the prince was taken to America and trained "for the ministry, becoming a successful and well-known preacher.
With the aid of the missionaries, the prince sent Ira to be educated for the ministry at Glasgow university, but enamored by the stage, he left the church.
The second. the more romantic and yet more likely story, is that his brother, a humble mate at Baltimore or Belair, Md., or probably New York City.
Taught By German
In his youth he was apprenticed to a German ship-carpentrill, thus reminding one of another great Negro who also lived at that time: Fredrick Aldridge learned German and picked up what education he could. From the shipyard he went to Wallack's theatre, where he filled some mental employment and took part in the theater. He noted actions of the day and was fired by their example to reach that goal which nearly every ambitious actor of the time had set for himself. He was a great interpreter of Shakespeare.
Taken To England
It was here also that he met Edmund Kean, one of the greatest of all Shakespearean actors. Kean, it was said was struck by the young man that he look him back with him to England in some sort of capacity—as servant or secretary, probably. As the encyclopedias point out the inflection somewhere in the story of Aldridge's early life. It is probably that of the prince and king story which may have originated with some enterprise press-agent. In those days, and even in these, the dark Negro who distinguished himself was given royal origin. If dandelion or leaf. At times she has even allowed Jack to wear them to scare the Rutledge children until they were able to proper nurses on the benches. Oh, what fun! She is also content to let her prosy contemporaries have a and Bref Wolf, while she tells her friends that happen in real life down where the ships come in. Then there are other moments when they have (Continued on page 12)

During this final spell of severe illness all the notables of the New York stage and many social celebrities visited him and offered their unlimited resources for his recovery. Often his bed was surrounded with sympathetic and interested friends.
he was light, it was his white ancestry. Another dark American Negro, very much known in both Europe and America and who comes from the humble environment, was recently spoken of by a leading European newspaper as being of royal African descent, although to the best of our knowledge, there is no foundation whatever for the story.
Life of Thrills
But let us leave these questions of origin and early life aside and come down to that part of Aldridge's life of which there is no doubt. For independent of them, his life is full of thrills and inspiration. Living at the time he did—that's before the Civil War, his life sounds like a fairy tale—except that in fairy-tales things happen by magic while in Aldridge's case it was the magic of work–hard, grinding, nerve testing work. He said: "Some men are born great; some achieve greatness; while others have greatness thrust upon them." Of Ira Aldridge all three were, in a measure, true.
Possessed Great Intellect
Aldridge's first appearance was as an amateur in Sheridan's "Pizazz," where he played the role of Rolla. He also played in minor theatres with success, and returned to America in 1830. But the proposed American tour ended in failure, and he returned to England. It was a bitter blow for him but years of disappointment and almost despair were ahead of him. He had to play in theaters during this period he tried manager after manager in vain. But he studied hard in the meanwhile, mastering the minutest details of the
Made Remarkable Debut
At last his opportunity arrived. He made his debut at the Royal Theatre in London, where the excellence of his performance was spearman actor of the first rank. The critics were most effuse in their praise, and from then onwards he was a made man class. He was on him, among them being one from Kean himself, and another from Knowles, one of the foremost dramatists of the time.
Acclaimed on Tour
From London he began a tour of the provinces accumulating fame as he went. Nor did he confine himself to Othello. He had mastered other Shakepearean roles and was in the dark-skinned roles such as Othello, Aaron in "Titus Andronicus," also Gambia in "The Slave"; Narnambo, and Oranooko. he was at his best. Belfast he played Othello to the dark-skinned roles in Crowsdale flocked to see him and so great was his name that the theatres were sold out days in advance of his coming. The press hailed him as "The African Rosusci," an. as such he was now known to be recalled, was preeminently the greatest actor of ancient Rome. Though horn a slave he rose by sheer force of genius to a position of first rank under Julius Caesar. Cleoerom himself, esteemed and did not disdain to learn from him.
Othello. Greatest Role
Madame Malibran, leading prima donna of the time, went to see Aldridge, and was so impressed by his acting that she wrote him: "I am a professional career have I witnessed a more powerful and interesting perform-
ance," while Lady V. Beecher, herself the most noted tragedienne of her time, wrote: "During my professional as well as my private life I never so correct a portraiture of Othello amidst the luminaries of my day."
Returning to London Aldridge appeared at the Covent Garden Theatre as Othello, where, according to the playwright, Ida Lodge, detail was his acting that one would. So masterful, so perfect in every have thought that Shakespeare in creating Othello, the majestic Moor. The noble Moor whom the full success of his play a well-developed body, and a carniest complete."
(April 30, 1864) "mis success was the in physique, too, Aldridge fitted the part admirably, he being of commanding height and presence with sufficient," had used him as the very model, it will be recalled, was the commander-in-chief of the armies of Venice at the time when that nation was at the height of its glory. He was a formidable warrior but with the soul of a child when it came to Possessed Commanding Physique
gune and intrigue.

Into his acting he would put so much fire, so much realism, that at times members of the audience would be scared to look out of their seats. One of the passages in which he was most effective was the following in which he laughed at the beauty and innocent. Desdemona whom: he had just smothered:

heavenly sight!
Blow me about in winds! roast
me in sulphur!
Wash me in steep-down gulfs of liquid fire.
Oh Desdemona! Desdemona!
Dead!
Oh! 'Oh! Oh!"
At these moments he created such pity and indignation in the minds of his audience that some would rise to the occasion for the punishment of the guilty man.
But immense as was his success in England it was as nothing compared with that he was yet to attain: In 1852 he left at the head of a troupe of his friends to attend the next three years in that language in nearly all the chief towns. Duke Bernhard, ruler of Saxe-Meninge-England, the king of England, knighted him, making him a Chevalier of the Royal Saxon Nesthinschen House Order, and presented him with the Verdienst Medal.
Decorated by King
At the Royal Opera House in Berlin King Frederick III, IV was so thrilled by his acting that he ordered the Gold Medal of Science and the Arts struck in his honor. The actress, who was tingled up to that period were Humboldt, famous naturalist and philosopher; Spontini the composer; and Liszt, the great musician. In Austria-Hungary his triumph continued. The imperial Hstir junior was appointed to membership and gave him the large gold medal.

seen her cast a careful look about to make sure that she is unobserved, then slip to the street at the garden edge, with her hands cradled with certain low hucksters and fish vendors who may be passing. To Jack, who is eight years old, he insulted with these moments are particularly valuable, for he has learned that by approaching stealthily he can enrich his vocabulary with words that contoured his puerile comrades with their little heels and dummies.
Yes, indeed, Mrs. Atkinson has every reason to feel that fortune has smiled upon her in sending her
"Yes, my dear," she is saying to a friend with whom she is sitting on the Batter's deck, the morning, while the children play innocently near by and their guardian angel sits watching them sternly. Yet through the most marvelous luck, she belonged to the South Carolina branch of George's family you know, and that one encounters all too soon in these days she came and offered herself to us as soon as she heard them dead to town. And she would lend letters, would have placed her anywhere. The listener smiled sympathetically, nothing more needed. Mrs. Akhineni wrote: "Not many of them left now, and what I say is that we should treasure those who are; if for no other purpose but to set them to the upstart generation of Negroes."
"Yes, indeed." as Mrs. Atkinson would say. patience, application singleness of purpose, have reaped their reward in the Mail. Mr. Sainthood patted on this particular November afternoon and say if she has not at last arrived.
Affairs had gone badly in the little bride house. If, at fourteen, Sainthood had been a problem to his mother he was now, at eighteen, her despair. It was not that he was unwilling to work. On the contrary he hailed each other with his eagerness. But the habit that had been given to him in school had deepened rather than dissipated when met by the harsher realities of life. The immediate and factual reaction he with each new experience brought bewilderment to his untrained mind. His thoughts veered from the task of meeting and arranging them, leaped the gap between the bottom and top of the ladder and solaceed a foolish paradox of trumpets.
Unfortunately there were only certain occupations that a gentleman could follow in Charleston without sacrifice of life, and the lack of a professional training these were reduced to a minimum. One could work in a bank, or one of the bond and real estate companies, or one could become a cotton expert, or even a broker in the wholesale district along East Bay. Strange to say, in spite of the unholyrench and overalls, one could seek employment beyond the city limits. But a gentleman seeking a livelihood in the early nineteen hundreds could not engage in any branch of the retail business without imposing upon his customers the burden of insistent explanation.
Through the intercession of a distant relative, an outdoor clerkship with one of the banks had been obtained for Saint. It had been a formal job, but with enthusiasm, slightly blurred by his distrust of arithmetic, but zenithless. Now he could see, after the short period on the street, a high standing desk in the big hall, with a large wall outlet, a large wall office, and finally the directors' room with himself seated in the massive chair at the end of the table. On the first day he had stood looking down that alluring perspective until he was confronted with the coaster before he heard. This so distressed him that he penalised himself by memorising a cotton warehouse receipt, although he could not make head or tail of the legal verbage. His outdoor office was on the marsh, on the wharves, and therein lay his complete undoing, for there were the ships and the Negroes waiting to betray him into long, unexplained absences. At the first week of banking career came to an abrupt end.
Other jobs followed: a swift disillusionning procession of them. Bevildered and baffled, the boy met them, groped among their intricate mechanisms, felt them slipping through hands, and angrily retained them. Finally, on a dark morning morning, he stood before a door with a panel of ground class upon which was painted in large letters. PRIVATE The palms of the tongue felt like a withered pea in a dried pot, and his kneecaps were a

Jack adamantly study history, and geography, and a lot of other things." he says in his letter. "I want to do something. I want to make something—but I'm not certain what it is that I want to make. I hate sitting still, and I guess I'm just a failure. I guess I'm just like Jack does in this letter, and so you may be interested in what I found out about Jack, by studying his handwriting.

If you are the right kind of person for a nurse, or are gifted with talent that will make you a success on the stage or as a writer all of this will show in your writing.
This is exactly what I found in Jack Bronson's letter. He isn't the only fellow below him but if Jack knows the right way and encouragement he will make a wonderful mechanic, possibly an inventor. He shows real talent for craft work, and will be certain to make a success in it if given a chance. The fact is that Jack Bronson can give himself a chance. He can buy him a machine, and can learn at a machine, and can learn at the things he wants to do. He will

quaking jelly. In the distance St. Michael's chimed and struck eleven. He made a solemn vow to himself to stick it out for another quart hour. If he did not get it he would not keep it and his body there any longer. The last man who had hired him had smiled over his head at another occupant of the room all the time, talked with him, sitting where he could not see the other man, but his back had quivered under the derisive answering smile. He prayed now that this man would be alone and that he would be sitting where he had been before. Fertility. This was about the end of the procession; the last stand. He have to get it, and he had to stick it out when he had it. His thoughts touched on his mother. Hope for the future of the inter-operation, tender wave swept upward from the pit of his stomach and broke in a blinding mist before his eyes. The big, black PRIVATE on the door swam up and should be opened up. He dashed his knuckles across his eyes and gritted his teeth.
A low-pitched man's voice had been rumbling monotonously in the room beyond the door that he was standing in. He heard the sound of a chair pushed over a bare floor; then the words: "That will do now. Tell the young man outside that I will see him. The door with letters laying letters on it. A woman passed him and said: "You may see Mr. Raymond now." He set the machinery of his legs in motion, and the man was moving. "The room was large and bare. It smelled faintly of phosphates. In its centre a heavy man sat in a swivel chair behind a flat-top desk. Behind rimless镜子 his eyes were keen
"So you are Katherine Wentworth's boy," he said in a deep, hearty voice. "I am glad to know you have made both of them. Got a lot to live up to. Son." He shook hands cordially and waved his guest to a chair at the end of the desk where the light shone on him. He looked at him. What he saw was a tail, slender lad with loosely hung arms and legs and a sallow face that flinched away from his nose. He saw brown hair with a cowlift over the forehead, and slate-coloured eyes that were too conscious of their own tragic admissions to meet his glance. He looked at the woman liberated with a silver cigar-cutter and a long, black cigar. He scratched a match, applied it, and blew a funnel of smoke toward the ceiling. He looked at the boy. Yes, the respire had helped. They could talk now.
"Think you like to try the fertilizer business, eh?" There was a twinkle behind his glasses.
"You."
"Don't mind starting at the bottom."
"No, indeed, sir, almost anything."
"I don't mind doing anything at all."
"That's the proper spirit!" exclaimed the big man. "Now, how'd you like to start just where he was? He filled the room with warm vibrations; they entered into the boy's body and started something glowing there. No one had been there before, so suddenly that he would like to show this friend what he could do. Perhaps there would be a riot at the factory, all of the other white men gone, and he alone reasoned that he would be a fire. He saw himself grown suddenly to splendid stature smashing down a barrier with an axe, manning the hose. He saw the fire down the great funnel of a building. Horrors! Mr. Raymond had been talking to him. The big hand slapped the table, and across Sain'ts words: "What do you say to that?" What had it been? Saint groped back among the spent words that had scarcely grazed his conscious mind. His benefactor was leaning forward expectantly, waiting for an answer. "Thank you very much. Mr. Raymond, he said lately, and wonders what he was being grateful for."
"Good! You accept, then?" "Yes, indeed. sit." "Yes, you with five dollars a week. I am going out to the mines myself tomorrow, and I'll take you along. Be here at nine o'clock and put on your shoes, and don't have to come back for your clothes." "The big man got to his feet and put on his shoes, and then shoulder." "Started with one myself, ended up with a chain, then came on in here. So you see it can be done." "In the street, Saint stopped and looked up at the window of the room he had left." "Ended up with a chain, and then," "What kind of a chain I wonder." **END OF INSTALLMENT II**

Jackson Tells Where Jazz in Cabarets Was Born
By James A. Jackson
How come jazz bands with the juggling drummers, top hatted cornetts and whirling bass violins into vogue? From whence came the jazz gave social prestige to the swaying band leader and the muted trombones?
In general one hears that the war is to be blamed for the introduction of raucous sounds into our music, and that is about as far as the average person is willing to ward place sensibility for the American musical mood of the American public. One might well say, the World, for at one time, nearly half of the famous Clef Club of New York was playing jazz in Paris, while each winter for several years past, the Morris International Booking has sent bands to South America.
But jazz didn't just grow, as did Topsy of immortal "Uncle Tom's Cabin" fame. Jazz, the son of Tom, is the musician. Is it contribution to the musical lore of the land. It came into vogue through the medium of a restaurant that was once one of the Bohemians of New York. While the music was making a way into public favor, the proponents of it were erecting a permanent home from the effectiveness of organization among musicians. With Jazz came its handmaiden, the Cabaret. Each day one of Michigan's purists on the South side of Chicago, a dapper little old gentleman, whose debonair air dress at once became a hotel in a restaurant, one would instinctively pay the immaculate one the tribute of observing that there is a man who knows how to eat with the enjoyment of that man is Charles Lett, who, perhaps, more than any other one individual, may be credited with giving the modern cabaret its place.
Prior to 1800 there were coffee shops in New Orleans. There were singing waiters in the places that were termed restaurants in San Francisco. Coney Island was a singing waiter. There were waiters the Brooklyn when wintry blasts made the populace abandon Coney Island until another summer sun again invited one to the water side. In cities like Chicago one fond revelry found one new entertainment the entertainers that were with bated breath, if mentioned at all, in police society.
All of these manifestations were attributes of the underwriters, who were also social recognition. Polite society knew not of them as places of which to beware. They were not cabarats, nor was the music heard therecalled
About 1899. James B. Russell and Charles Littleton, two clever and widely known hotel workers determined to have a reservation for anything that had preceded its inception. Marshall was a Canadian boy who had acquired his knack of serving the public the old Russo-Denmark. He set up young man with education and a polished air. He also had a practical knowledge of the art of cooking, acquired somehow through school. He worked his way through school. Mr. Lett, an Ohio boy, had worked in hotels in Columbus, Cleveland, Detroit and Chicago. He married with the public his changing moods with regard to food. The two made an ideal team. Meeting happily in New York, while both were in fundraiser meetings, business and joint hands to create the establishment that bore the name of "The Marshallette" which was destined to create a remarkable impression upon the night life of the city that is
The first location was in the neighborhood once known as the Tenderloin, a district that was so secluded that it was polished in the spector, who regulated control of the district as "juicy pickings" from his point of view. A short time served to show the bounty of the investment for them. The Marshallite was moved from its original location in 1800 to a brown stone house within two doors of the them larger building. The house was fashionable 83rd street, in those days the finest of residence districts.
The congregation and its minister looked askance at the opening of a restaurant so large that all of Charlie Left's suave diplomacy was required to mollylize the opposition that was set up against his business. But he prevailed and the restaurant was soon converted into a series of cute little dining rooms, each of which was invested with an air of exclusiveness, without any of the distastefulness of the frankly common to restaurants of a certain type.

Hampton Noses Out Howard Bisons
SOX SPLIT EVEN WITH STARS IN TWIN BILL
League Champs Cop First Tilt, 6-2, but Drop Second. 6-5.
YOKELY IN RARE FORM
Sox Rally in Second Game Falls Short.
The Baltimore Black Sox divided a double bill with the International League All-Stars (white) Sunday at Maryland Park, the first game ending 6-2 in favor of the Sox, and the second 6-5 in the All Stars behalf.
Yokely was easily the master of the All Stars, allowing only two hits one a scratch hit which Neun beat out, and the Yokely had walked in the three. Two runs scored.
Yokely gave five passes and struck out, sx, men.
The Sox's runs were produced by the heavy cloutting of Smith, Wilson, Beckwith and Washington. What would otherwise have been three base hits became only two, because of bleacher seats in the outfield.
Wilson led in hitting for the Sox by setting up a triple, and a single 11. ticks, all.
Rally Fails in Second Game
Errors by Wilson, and Warfield in
the fifth of the second game paved
the way for the All Stars three runs.

Lincoln Giants Win Pair from Camden Club
Ryan Hero—To Play Lou Gehrig's All Stars Sunday
NEW YORK—Wid Conroy's Canden nine took a double drubbing when they met the Lincoln Giants in their final appearance for the season at Protectorate Oval, Sunday, the scores being 6 with a home run.
The first contest was a thriller: "Red" Ryan, pitcher; for the local team, got off at a bad start and the Giants lost in the innings. Ryan tightened up in the third and held them scoreless for the remainder of the game. In addition he started a rally in the eighth inning, and the home run, that netted the Lincoln 6 runs.
To Play Big Leaguers

Soccer at Lincoln
LINCOLN UNIVERSITY. Pa. The soccer team of Lincoln University will again be seen in action this fall, according to Captain Stokes.
Last year a team was assembled under the tutelage of Prof. A. E. James. Local white clubs and colleges here are still inexperienced, they will give a better account of themselves this year.
Among the members of the squad are Captain Stoker Atkinson, Jamone Watson, Dr. Davies Hawkins, two years' squads, who have reported and will be augmented by new students, including Ankive, the first student to join the University of Liverpool team when he was a resident of that city in England. The team will be coached by Mr. Silvers, white of the university.
Morehouse Meets Knoxville
ATLANTA, GA — Coach Ray Vaughan and assistant Coach Forbes have been driving the Morehouse squad at a fast clip.
With the arrival of Captain Mann and Webster, who had been reported as not coming, the outlook for them was positive. With these two veterans back in the fold, and with Davis, Tarver, Puris, Harrison, Ellis, Robinson, and Hawkins showing up well for the old men, the team is a good account of self Friday in the opening game with Knoxville.

The team won the twin bill from the San La Jolla Cubans of Mexico, here Sunday. The scores were 10-5 and 6-0 the shutout game being hurled by Cooper premier Monarch finger, without opposition without allowing a hit.

Hear Me Talkin' To Ya By BILL GIBSON
HAMPTON-BY-THE-SEA—Believe it or not, football, particularly the college variety, is not becoming a game for silk pajama-clad youths sipping tea, tough certain observers would have made the college, those in the Southland, especially, have not deserted the he-man game of the gridron, and football As is can still be seen, much to this collymnisist's delight. While the use of the forward pass and the net rules have made football of rough and tumble football on this season's menu, and from now until December there will be plenty of activity.
Line plunging is by no means extinct, and hard tackling, the toy of many coaches, is among many others, is in evidence and so ago, in which it was irrefutable evidenced that the gridron sport has not yet deteriorated into a ladies' game. Cain, stallier signal bearer of the Mountaineers, had an arm broken, and Horse
Lakewood.
Yet, football is by no means brutal—it is not man-killing. College spirit, whatever that is, is still in evidence, and the desire to do or die for dear old Winoosis, still surges under many a jersey, aiding and abetting the taking of risks in order to enjoy the talent. The caution of the pro-player player is absent in them, this colt, motorman can say with authority that fans need have no qualms about attending the games, for from all early season indications football is in for its biggest year.
Intersectional tilt, once with our institutions, are always with startling regularity, and fans in one section of the country are no longer confined to seeing the home team and just a few others in action. Tuskegee is getting the bulk of the intersectional tilt, this year, having already faced A. and B. with Wilberforce and Bluefield to follow. The West Virginia State comes to Hampton this year and Howard goes to Atlanta to tackle morehouse and to Nashville to encounter Fisk.
There is talk of a Virginia State-Clark game at Roamos, and the schools of the southwest region are all coming to Hampton. The Hampton-Lincoln f gate, and with many other sectional tilt on tap there should be no howl about not having good games.
Within the past five years Negro football has grown by the provincial leap in the amount much in the promotion of college programs, as much as some educators would have you believe to the contrary. For years a few race stars have emblazoned themselves in the national football firm, scillinating at the big white colleges and universities. Nordic sport followers did not know, or did not care to know what their brethren were doing on the field.
Today, with the taking of football TO the northern and midwest sections, there is bound to be an apparent on the part of the team to accept the challenge, toks
Negro baseball has opened the eyes of many whites to -the abilities of our players, and inter-racial games are a common thing. Some of our colleges have engaged, with good results, in inter-racial baseball games.
Is it expecting too much then, to predict that are long there will be a number of inter-racial football contests? This pillar does not think that it. Starting with some of the smaller teams or the development of inter-racial relations, via the gridron. All of this ballyhoo about the dangers inherent in anything that brings the races into close physical contact, is to my mind a lot of tommyrot. This pillar, then, hails the dawning of a sport spirit. The bungling would be leaders tamper with the plans and specifications, you can look forward to the building of substantial good-will through the efforts of our bronzeed warriors of the white-biried greenswain.
G
LEST IT BE SOON FORGOTTEN, I want to say a word or two here about. Howard Leonard, the 15-year-old Salisbury, Md. youth, with who barely railroad fare in his jeans, fared forth to Baltimore to win the laurels as the best horseshoe pitcher in the state.
Leonard represented to the 9th degree the adventurous spirit of youth—the bungling spirit of amateur competition. How he won, from men old enough to be his grandfather, has already been told. What I want to say here is that this Eastern Sho'youngster has set an example that many, much older than he, might well
With heavy odds against him, he scraped up enough money to come to Baltimore. The matters of eating and sleeping after he got here, never occurred to him—only the first prize of gold-plated, yet not the first prize of the highest degree, her sister stayed home with mother and father, but their hopes and prayers went to Baltimore, with him, and no people in Salsbury were happier than when the news arrived that he had won. It was a sweet victory for young Leonard, who, though fushed with victory, yet maintained his position in the university, defend my title". And adventurous youth, marking up another victory, hopped on the train, and was off.
One thing in the AFRO tournament that impressed this Underwood usurper was the high caliber of the competition, particularly at Baltimore. Doctors in the city believed one family as horeshouses clinked against pegs of steel. A general spirit of camaraderie prevailed and many friendships were formed as a result.
The tournament was a success from all angles and already the answer was answered. The mother is to be held next year. Horeshose pitching is not a lost art in Maryland, and the AFRO tournament afforded an outlet for many who do not participate in other sports. During the winter months there will be murmurings from the horseshoe stove league, which will be released in this pillar from time to time.
Horseshees, after all, are still useful, all the efforts of Henry Ford and General Motors, notwithstanding.
MORGAN FOOTBALL FOLLOWERS point with pride to the fact, that the Bears held Virginia State College to low a score as they did, 14-0.
A new coach, they say, and quite a bit of new material, too. The team, they say, and quite a year the Bears lost 32-0 at Petersburg, and this year they reduced the score, by more than one-half.
Somehow I can't quite understand all this "moral victory" stuff. A defeat is a defeat, and no other name can make it anything else. The victories are the victories. If you are opened. If you are closed. True the talk of a moral victory consoles one. We have had them for years and probably will have them for many more to come. Possibly it is a good thing that they are still with us. All of us are still with us. All of us are philosopher remarks. "If you don't die, you either, was or you loses."
Yes, thank you, we had a nize vacation.
Fans Boo Decision as Flowers "Loses'
BOSTON—Bruce Flowers, lightweight, of New Rochelle, N. Y., was the victim of the judge's decision in a fast feature 10-round bout with Andy Callahan, lightweight, of Lawrence, Mass., at the Boston Garden.
The decision was booed by the team, the teammate, many beating that the boy from the town made famous by Kip Rhl渊lander had won the bout. Scores of enraged fans loudly proclaimed that in order for Flowers to have won the decision it would have had to be by a knockout. After she was made, Flowers so surprised that he appeared stunned. For fully ten seconds he could do nothing more than stare, which was followed by a smile after realizing that he lost the fight. He loudly cheered on leaving the ring.
Most Valuable Player Ballot
Howard Gridders Shed Tears as Hampton Wins
HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va.—So confident were some of the members of the Howard university football team, the Hampton Institute team, that when the Seasiders were returned the victors, 6-0, several of the Bison players broke down and went on strike. Charlie Dickson, quarterback, was heartbroken when he came off the field and it was all that Assistant Coach Jack Young to help the Bison became practically certain that the Howard team would not score during the last minutes of the final quarter, some of the subs from the bench toward the exit.
When the two teams met in Washington on November 15, the two teams met in a 7-3 score, the last part of the game being played in darkness so great that students in the middle lighted matches and candles.

BOTH TEAMS MISCUE
Marshall Runs 90 Yards for "Freak" Score.
HAMPTON INST. VA.-In a game marked by surprise, hard fought play, the team clean sportsmanship, the team Seadiers successfully withstood the Bison invasion on Armstrong Field, Saturday, to triumph 6-0.
A slight favorite, the Seadiers kept the ball in Bison territory for most of the game, playing brilliantly in spots but leaving much for Coach Gideon Smith to iron out in the making of a smooth football machine.
Howard Threatens Early
Howard chose the northern goal and received Guess's kick on her thirty-ward line to have Mack bring it back to the forty-five line. Howard then opened up an aerial attack which was quickly broken by the Seadier of Hampton figured prominently in a counter attack. A kicked duel ensued with Jones of Hampton outkicking Marshall of Howard.
Three downs netted only six yards, and four down down a pass, Jones of Hampton was grounded.
Howard then kicked out, but Harris brought the ball back to the thirty-yard line. He twisted and pivoted to make an end run of fifteen yards. In four downs Hampton was two feet from the goal line but could not score. Lee was substitute for Gordon and menace, for nothing went by him. Marshall Makes "Freak" Run. Howard then tried to plunge the line but fumbled, saving the ball that shook him. He then kicked off, but Harris brought the ball within driving distance. On the third down, with six yards to go, Jones galloped around to place the ball on Howard's twelve yard line. But the Howard defense stood firm. Hampton resorted to an aerial attack, but the fourth down, Marshall of Howard scooped the ball and ran ninety yards for a freak touchdown, but the ball was brought back to the ten-yard line. The quarter ended with the Bisons with their back to the wall. Hampton Scores in the Third
Marshall kicked off to Hampton's twenty-yard line and Harris ran the ball back eighteen yards. Here Hampton was thrown for two successes, but the ball was not thrown. He the ever threatening menace was again the reason. Howard then kicked out and loosed another aerial attack but Jones broke the ball and Hampton with the twenty yard line Hampton registered fourteen yards in three downs. Failing with two line plunges, Jones stepped back and threw the ball pass into the waiting arms of Scott who caught the ball from between two Howard players and run four yards to a touchdown. The try for a point failed, when Hanks missed the bar frm placement.
The fourth quarter found Hampton more threatening than ever. Twice did the Seasailers bring the ball to within two yards of the ball on the other side. Then Howard unscored an air attack that netted twenty yards, the most spectacular throw of which was a ten-yard pass from Hampton to Leo. The game with Howard fighting as bravely as at the start.
Chubby Jones Stars
Chubby Jones of American fullback, was the outstanding player for Hampton. He ran like a deer and his kicking pulled his team out of several difficult places, while throwing McGowan with sure, McGowan also played brilliantly, running down under punts to mail the runner in his tracks. He made tackles to the ball and proved a tower of strength to Hampton.
Busky Harris, New York boy. ably solved the quarterback problem which had been a matter of concern to the Seasiders. His playing stamina as a man to be compared to one he feared in coming gridiron conflicts of the C.I.A.A.

kept the dusky star out of the line-up has been unassured, but one entertained, one thing is certain, many were grooming for the colored boy when the mountainous terrain defending its goal on its own one-yard line. DeShields added a color of mate to
the event, and warming the New York "U" bench and Chuck Jones, the Mohawk Gig Walk, played throughout the game. The final score was, New York university, 26; West Virginia, 0.
It seems as if Myers is to have several rest periods this year since, for no good reason, Chick Mehan, white, the New York university mentor, has signed up to meet Georgetown, University of Georgia, for a few weeks.

The game was devoid of many thrills, but found the light Morgan team fighting vallantly to stave off defeat. Fumbles and misuses are the main reasons for a touchdown and a safety for the Virginians. State's team outweighed Morgan, the line averaging 179 against 155 for Morgan, and the backfield averaging 172 against 140 for the Big Fallback Rips Line.
Bounds, the big 210-pound fullback, discovered this year by Coach Harold Martin, crashed his immense buk against the Morgan line time after time, and except on a few occasions, the Morgan line was through. The Virginia is indulged in straight football, with the Bears counter-attacking by air, and for much of the game the ball seawed up and down the field as Lawless of Morgan and Williams Vassar booted the pigskin back and forth.
Bad Pass—Touchdown
off to Morgan, and Captain Pinky Clarke ran the oval back from the 15-yard stripe to his own 45-yard line. The teams exchanged kicks several times until late in the first period when Clarke made a bad lateral pass to Spaulding, the latter failing to touch the ball, with the result that State recovered behind the coal line for the first touchdown of the aftermath. The attempt to garner the extra point, via air, failed. Dropkick Fails
Lawless began kicking early in the second quarter. his points ranging from 38 to 43 yards. Two forward passes, Clarke to Bell, netted the Bears 20 yards, but with the ball on their own 40-yard line, Morgan lost the ball on downs.
The visitors then drove down to Morgan's one foot marker, only to lose the ball on a fumble. Morgan's best opportunity to score came when he worked the ball down the field to Va. State's 35-yard line. Lawless tried a droukick, which missed the goal posts by inches.
Surrised at Morgan's stubbornness the Virginians started a drive in the third period, which soon neared the end. The ball being taken over by Bounds, the rusin for extra point failed. State's other points came early in the final period.

You feel admiration, rather than pity, for the gameness of such old men as Perry Hale, center on Yale's 1899 football team, who, though blind, attends any Yale game, and "Mac" Levy, boxing fan, who attends bouts in the Garden with Jack Johnson beside him to call the blows. However, they are spectators. It is on record that once there was an attack on the gymnasium, in dire need of money. Sam Langford, a few years ago in Mexico, was matched with the Mexican heavyweight champion, the promoters neither knowing or caring that old Tham was sightless.
The bell rang for the first round. "Lift me to mah feet, boy." Langford told his corner handler. "And point me right toward that Mexican champion." but gallant, Langford stood a few steps from his own corner waiting for the fighter he could only distinguish as a dark blue.
The Mexican rushed forward to close quarters and Langford hooked him with his left arm. Quickly Langford raised his right glove to find where the Mexican's face was. Switily old Tham pulled back his right arm and let fly with a prayer on it. All that Langford heard was the crash of a heavy body to the floor, but it was enough.
Out loud, Langford called: "Boy, boy, take old Tham back to his stoop. My work is all over again." The blind men of sport, we salute you!

TUSKEGEE CONOUERS A. AND T. BULLDOGS
Tigers, Using Visitors' Weapon, March to 21-0 Victory, Saturday.
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE. Ala.—Opportunity smiled at Tuskegee Saturday, and the Golden Tiger eleven, quick to grasp it, shattered the hopes of the A. and T. College team with a stunning victory, 21 to 0, before a crowd of 5,000.
Tuskegee's highly geared attack, functioning much more smoothly and powerfully than the A. and T. was started on its way by the fleet, elusive John Johnson. Johnson ripped the Bulldogs defense and scored Tuskegee's two first touchdowns.
In the first quarter, from mid-field Stevenson and Shanklin carried the ball to the A. and T. 30 yard line. Johnson in a series of short dashes that terminated when he yards of tackles for the first touchdown the extra point. Stevenson added the extra point.
In the third period, taking advantage of a short punt by Lane, the Tigers' backfield, led by Stevenson, started a marshal on the field, where Johnson slipped over for the second touchdown. Stevenson added the extra point.
"Hoss" Lane Stopped
The A. and T. Backfield ballet, led by "Hoss" Lane, their age, exasperated a succession of fancy steps, gave the scoring touch. In all but the first period the Bulldogs menaced Tuskegee chiefly through the brilliant running of Lane, Coleman and Carter, aided by a dazzling overhead attack. McCarthy, substitute Tiger Jack, plucked a pass out of the backfield gem of the game and gave A. and T. its best scoring opportunity in the second period, when he grabbed a punt and diced and twisted 48 yards to Tuskegee's 27 yard line. The Tiger forward wall blocked Pines.
With the rushing game in fine order Tuskegee spent most of the afternoon intercepting enemy passes rather than trying her own. Two heaves, however, one from Harrison to Stevenon gained 35 yards of the Tigers in position to score the ball in position when Harrison smashed over from the 10 yard line. Stevenon added the extra point. Duncan was on the receiving end of the other pass. The Tigers tried only five passes altogether, while the Bulldogs hurled 18, completing 4 nine were grounded and 6 intercepted. Streater, at end for 4, played a great game for did Coles at tackle. He special moments the passes either went astray or were snagged by the Tiger secondary defense.
On four occasions—twice in the second period and twice in the third period—Johnson intercepted passes that broke up A. and T. advances.
Lure of Football Gets Lanky Jones
Morgan's Basketball Acc Seeks to Play End Position
If there is such a thing as "good coming from Morgan College footballers, who were defeated last Saturday by Virginia State College, will attest to it with the announcement that following the game, Edward Panky will play on the Morgan basketball team, sought out Coach E. P. Hurt and told him that he was
coming from evil." Morgan College footballers, who were defeated last Saturday by Virginia State College will attest to it with the announcement that following the game, Edward (Lanky) Jones, star pilot on the Morgan basketball team, sought out Coach E. P. Hurt and told him that he was coming out for the team. Lanky was a spectator at the game Saturday, and when he saw the Bears being beaten back by end rushes and line drives, he could start nausea for hours. "We reported to Hurt Monday, and is trying out for left end, in the hope of making a running mata for Alfred Bell, the Florida whirlwind, who has developed remarkably in his position at right end.
While Jones, who is a senior, has never donned the moleskins at Morgan, he did play as a member of the Orange, N.J. high school team on special occasions. He was a special Pink Pint player who was then a student at East Orange high school. Lanky ascends to a height of 6 feet. 3 inches and has taken on a number of pounds during the summer vacation, making his weight now between 160 and 170. He is 29 years old and is spending his fourth year at Morgan.
Coach Hurt seems optimistic about his new mum, and if Lanky fulfills his expectations, is very likely to build an even more powerful air attack than he had previously planned for the big fellow will not find many ends measuring ... to his skyward reach.

St. Paul, outclassed, outplayed and outgeneraled Shaw in every department, but the latter offered stubborn resistance.
Moore Buns 94 Yards
Teamwork featured the game, but Moore's interference a forward pass on his own 6-yard line and his subsequent get-a-way for a 94-yard run for touchdown for St. Paul and a punt from St. Paul's 35-yard line for Shaw's only touchdown and the score of the game, were among the high lights of the encounter. Well-timed interference made it possible to extra starring and Kornega of Shaw shared the outstanding honors of the game, while Burke, Murphy, Smith, Hester and Wells perform: brilliantly for St. Paul.

TAYLOR TELLS LINCOLN LIONS THEY OUGHT TO BE CHAMPIONS
LINCOLN UNIVERSITY, Pa.—If there was any time in the history of Lincoln university when the entire student body and the faculty are back of the football team, head, heart and all, it is today.
This identity of interest permeates the campus and scintillates the spirit of the team. Having whipped Saint Paul 12-6, and swamped the Annapolitans 28-0, with a coterie of scrubs, Coach Taylor is one man who sees in the team of this year an array of material and an impregnable battery.
Speaking before the student rabble, the wily coach remarked that with the greatest line that Lincoln has had in years, plus the fastest backfield a Negro college could boast of, there was no reason why Lincoln should not be well up in the money when the C.I.A.A. championship was decided.
Veele and Hardy of Baltimore are a pair of guards weighing close to five hundred pounds. Perkins and Sydnor, ends. stand over six feet. Crossson and Waters are exceptionally nimble tackles. Lewis, Clark Anderson, and Harmon are a terrible combination and will be a nightmare to Howard and other teams this year.

Sufferers from asthma and bronchial trouble should read this message from Miss Jane Cunningham,
531 Charleston Ave., Port Arthur,
"I had asthma for 7 years. I tried perma and it attacks because so severe I thought my time had come. In November 1957, as a last resort, I tried Nacor. I later inked two bottles, my asthma disappeared and has never returned." This remarkable letter is just one of the many letters of Nacor's asthma, bronchitis and chronic coughs, telling how their trouble left and never returned. Their letters and a booklet of letters from their patients will be sent free by Nacor Medicine Co. 511 State Life Bldg., Indianapolis, Ind. Write for this free information thousands have been restored to health.

PROBLEM OF RACE
MIXING WORRIES
ENGLISH PRESS
What Shall be Done With Mulatto Babies? Queries News.
Shall White Women
Wed Black? It Asks.
In Europe, says Mr. Rogers, the
black race has mixed with and be-
come a part of the white race for
centuries.
In America and in Africa, the re-
verse process has taken place. The
white race has mixed its blood with
centuries.
By J. A. ROGERS
LONDON.—This question of race-mixing will not down. We should rather say this matter of mixing white women and black men, for the other process, that of black women and white men, has been settled peaceably long ago. The ayes have had it!
"Pin-Bits, leading English magazine, asks the question: 'Should white women marry black men?' and goes on:
"Some years ago we used to have large bodies of natives sent over from Nicaea either on military service or in the traveling show. We have embraced and disgust to avoid the manner in which English womanhood would flock to see these men, whilst to watch them fawning upon these black creatures, embracing and having seen them, was a scandal and disgrace in English womanhood."
White Supremacy
After soundly denouncing these unions, the writer goes on to show the dangers to white supremacy if they are allowed to continue. He asks: "How then, is it possible to maintain as the stern creed in the policy of the Empire the supreme policy of the Empire over black?" "Female supremacy of the white over black!" This has a decidedly Southern ring.
Mulatto Babies
A few months ago an article in the News of the World, with largest circulation among English newspapers, asked what was England going to do about the mulatto babies that were being born in the British Isles to white mothers and black fathers. For the past four hundred years, looser, the Englishman has been come to the black man's side, therein and nothing whatever had been done or said about it. Colored Women—White Men
If the white man and the colored woman put aside their sex jealousy for a moment, it will be noted that in the matter of race-mixing the coloured man and the white man have grown almost perfect free-
But it is these two who, broadly, king, are the strongest opponents of are-mixing when dont by others that themselves they own of sets unless he wishes to maintain unless white supremacy, and sees, as does the writer in Tit-Bits, that it can be maintained only by continuing to breed "white." He sees that writings so fiercely oppose white supremacy as the union of black men and white women.
Only Colored Folks
As to the vast majority of Negro
power, they do not object to race-
celebration.
Because the white man belongs to a higher caste, the Negro woman thinks it an honor to have children in her family, but men rule colored women wish to produce children as near in resemblance to the white as possible. This is true of all places, except these in which black influence will predominate, and many white descendants are Black Children. In the United States, Cuba, South America, Cape Colony, the ambitious black mother does not want a black child—and most mothers are ambitions where their children are concerned. She realizes that it will have a negative effect on her. She is flipped to, at being able to display a light child, perhaps after nursing a white child, her miss was told that black foundlings in Britain have a better chance of being adopted by a white person than by a colored one.
The Colored Woman Objects
The Nero woman has always mixed with the white man. Musicians and slaves have been as slaves days, as sheer burk. The masquerade. I have good reason to believe, felt themselves only too high-hired. On the other hand, the Nero woman, the union of the white woman and the black man. Why? Because she realizes that although the white man is most anxious to get the will not marry her. He is not that much interested that he objects to the union of the white woman and the black man. This also would smash white supremacy. It would give not only the Nero woman a white woman, while Nero woman a recognition, and thus the way for equality.
Permanent Meal Ticket
Therefore since the white man will not marry her, and nearly all women want a permanent anchor or meal ticket in the shape of a husband, the colored woman objects to the union of the white woman and the black man. She knows that the black man will marry the white woman, as he also wants to get in with three of the women. And in that case would she get a husband? The Negro woman wants to eat her hair; she have it, too, and so the Negro woman's her gcat and also that of the white mar.
A Hard Time
But he, the white man would marry her in, would be a different story for him. In that case the Negro man would marry a white woman, a colored woman as he does in Europe and parts of the United States, and then Montana, Nevada and the State of Arizona, where their lesbian, but because of their preference for white men.
gro male for reasons that I had better not go into here.
Nature Seeks a Way Out
Of course I know that I will be roundly denounced in certain racially patriotic circles for having told the above-mentioned truths, which I could have made even stronger. But we have poised to see women before this kind of colored women for white men is but another manifestation of the workings of the caste system. Lower caste white women are also eager to have children for upper-caste white men. Also the very same thing is true in the Negro gentry among the Jews, among other people. It is just human nature, which is forever seeking advantage, or the way out.
Modern Negro slavery existed for nearly four centuries in Europe. Forget not that Negro slaves were also bought and sold in England. Old auction rooms in Liverpool and Bristol still exist.
War and trade have also brought over large numbers of Negroes to England and dumped them there. Large numbers of them come as seamen, and are paid off in England. There are no Negro women, and the very same thing take place as when a woman is seamed in a place, where there are no white women. And the white woman, on her part, shows almost as much willingness to take the black man, as the Negro woman to take the white man. All of this: slavery, war, trade. are big Nature's crude way of bringing people together and black and white which has gone on as far back in history as we can go.
More Mixing Coming
As his power and his development increases, the black man is going to mix increasingly with the white woman, and there is no power on earth that can prevent it. Need one say more than that a great many white women wish it, and that though man proposes, wcman disposes. White suitors are often locked into this going to be one way, a way of the white man's own teaching.
Timidlty of Kelly Miller
Our friend, Kelly Miller, whose timidity and old-fashioned way of thinking is exceeded only by his good mature and urbanity, has recently scolded "those Negro publicists who parade with applause every instance of racial intermarriage." He says: "If they become too jubilant, will be passed making it impossible!" His argument is strongest in the face of difficulty and opposition, and that it slumbers when given its own way?
Law Cannot Halt
If law could have availed there would not have been a single mulatto in the United States today. No one knows this better than Prof. Miller. After a study of three hundred years of race mixing in America, I have learned that the opposition are but oil on the flames. Stop throwing the oil and the fire will die down. Give Negro men and women equal opportunity, and they will want less mixing with white people. This step, however, would automatically increase the zest of the race-mixing. Race-mixing has penetrated so deeply in America that trying to stop it now would be like trying to take out of our bodies the nourishment that passed into our blood streams form the food we had taken years ago, or some such ridiculous
"Negro to Caucasian"
I am reminded here of a very interesting booklet that has just come to my notice on this topic. It is written by Louis Fremont Baldwin of 617 Montegomery street, San Francisco. His title is: "From Negro to Causesian." He shows how deeply the black character penetrated the white. Most of us have some idea of this, but his work is particularly valuable in that it gives us stories drawn from real life of persons he has met in the course of his interesting career. Would that space would permit my telling one or two of these stories here. We can only recommend their
European Penetration
To conclude: A certain proportion of modern Negro strain has also penetrated deeply into the European, and as I see the known grandchildren and great-grandchildren of Negroes even in Germany and England and note how indistinguishable they are from the other Europeans I get a glimpse not only in the place where Negroes were plentiful, but also a good idea of the racial composition of the Southern white.

HEYWOOD BROUN BITTEREST FOE OF BLACKSHEAR
Thinks P. E. Rector Should Renounce Christianity.
NEEDS NEW LABEL
Bibb Gives No Sanction to Segregation.
BROOKLYN, N. Y.—The Rev. William Blackshear, white, pastor of St. Matthew's P. E. church, who invited colored people out of his church, should renounce Christianity and find a new label for his religion, declared Heywood Broun, white, columnist, in the October 9 issue of the New York Nation.
"Palpably the rule of the ancient order is extremely difficult. I would not care to argue with anyone who said frankly that orthodox and fundamental Christianity was impossible under modern cultural conditions. There can be no denial of the fact that the rules of conduct established were outlined for people living under conditions quite unlike our own. But even in the beginning there was never any pretence that the way of Christ was easy. Fishermen gave up all that they had, and all that they all took the leader who had inspired them. Rich men wepen when they learned what they must do to gain salvation. Even in ancient Palestine, the borough revolutionary and his service demanded radical sacrifices on the part of all."
"How You Like to Sit With Negroes"
"Accordingly, it is quite irrelevant for Mr. Blackshear's defenders to like to have colored people sitting all around you during the church service every Sunday in the year? Some of us can answer frankly that we would hate: no objection whatsoever with equal truthfulness that they would be embarrassed even though they tried with all the good-will in the world to stife an inner telling of the truth. "But those who find it difficult to sit at God's altar shoulder to shoulder with Negro worshippers ought to be reminded that it is also difficult for camels to pass through a needles fence. "Nother literalsist nor interpreters of holy writ can find any sanction whatsoever for segregation within the church. "But this Bible to bed with him sometime and consider Paul's description of the heavenly state: 'Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor circumcumcision. Barbarian. Seychelles and in no free: but Christ is all and in all."
"This seems to me an explicit exposition of the spirit of the primitive church, the church which was used to teach the people. It seems to me, then, that Mr. Blackshear and those associates within the church who support him ought to have courage enough to renounce the Christian and pick one more approach." Brown's article said: "Most amazing of all is the contention of a few correspondents that the church is at the altar call by church membership involves certain social activities in which it would be embarrassing to have Negroes present. This is the contention of the various phases of Christianity." "Upholders of this point of view say in effect that the Rector's tea and muffins are of more importance than the bread and wine of the Episcopal church is a club devoted to ethical and religious interests well and good. I think there should be exclusive organizations devoted more interesting than contract bridges."
"But let these segregationists come out into the open. Misegendation may be an evil thing. I don't know, but I don't know that important and vital to preserve the purity of the white race have every right in the world to crusade for such segregation. I don't know how work for such an end under the banner of Jesus Christ who never seems to have been the least bit troubled by the presence of dark-skinned men or a black man was good enough to carry a slave to road to Calvary it seems quite preposterous that Negro parishioners of St. Matthew's Church should be abruptly urged to take a walk down the road and find another edifice for themselves.
Nearest Religion Negro
"The irony of the whole dispute lies in the fact that what is probably the nearest approach to fundamental, primitive Christianity exists among us. We came to them, as it must have come to the multitude in Palestine, as something nascent and alive. They were all of them converts like the apostles themselves. The emotional quality of religion of converts the church in its early days is "one day except in the meetings of Negro conversations. In other words the exclusion of these devout worshippers is a process of weeding out true Christians of interest of comfortable club fellows.
Negroes Like Children
"Here at hand there lies a letter to the New York Evening Post from a woman who says: 'Just what do you people write about church and churchmen? Do you really ask Negroes? Do you actually invite them to your teas, and have you ever really asked a Negro to join your church? We of the South love our Negroes and they love us too. We like children, we love them. The good lady then goes on to argue that because of the backward mental qualities of the Negro he must be discouraged from attending white churches. For his own good, we have the South come a slight upon a Negro without contending that he is trying to help him. But this is a curious disqualification which the good lady from the South has seized upon. Like children, she is the kingdom of heaven said Christ.

Edwards became an Olympic champion. They saw much of each other from then on, especially after they met his sister, Millicent Edwards, who died of kidney trouble last August, 1928.
When Millicent's body was brought to America, accompanied by Phil and another sister, Luille Edwards, Miss Edelshoff attended the funeral. On the same boat, in September, 1928, Phil lost his father, who was formerly a government official at Demerara, British Guiana. Miss Oedelshoff attended the funeral. For accomplished Miss Oedelshoff was born in Paris, the daughter of a French mother and a German father. The family moved to Berlin soon afterward and it was there she received her first years she attended the Belgian Academy of Music. She speaks French, German and English fluently and is perfectly at home among Negroes. She plays the piano and sings well. Her father is restless. He real estate business in New Jersey.
Edward's accomplishments on the cinder path are well known. When he is graduated from New York University, he goes to McGill university in Canada or Oxford university in England, said the track star, but is undecided between law and medicine.
In the spring Edward won the Alpha Phi scholarship at New York University for his work in his junior year, and also studied during the summer months. Also, he ran every week-end at Boston, Hamilton and Montreal and was British Vancouver, from where he returned two weeks ago.
Booked For Australia
Of three greatest athletes chosen to represent America at a competition in Australia, an invitation was first extended to Edward, who is to spend about four months in the latter country, all expenses to be paid, first class.
was recently said of Phil Edward. "He rarely practices, but when the time arrives for him, he just gets up and flies." Edward had a brother, Frank Jordan Edward, a graduate from McGill who was the fastest alive in his time who died at the age of 26 in Ergen in 1818.
The Speed Demon
Edwards proved himself a speedman last July when he won the 880 in two countries two days ahead of the 880 weeks later at which time a runner spitted him and he lost a shoe. "We'll move heaven and earth to have Edward's team win the PAAC Championship of the Amateur Athletic Association, is quoted as saving at the time, when a race was scheduled at Donnelly. It has a fastest train from Hamilton, Ontario in New York on July 2. thence to Denver via the Century, arriving on July 4 last in time to win the national championship for 880 yards.
Traffic Held Up
Immediately after the race the chief of police held up all traffic through the street to accommodate a nearby airport. A chartered plane flew him to Chicago where he caught a special train to Hamilton. The航班 of the race and again win the 880 for the Hamilton Olympic club who were competing with the Oxford-Cambridge team. The another race in Canada when a rookie sucker him and also pulled off one of his shoes by stepping on his heel. Just for the Philin ran the remaining one foot bare and won his five vials.

BROOKS-Joseph Brooks died September 7, 1929, age 73 years, in Washington, D.C. at 909 I S. L. N.E. in full triumph of faith.
He called for a list of his children to go to his home. This is the wav the Lord has appointed for me. He called his daughter and said, "Look in Job and read, in all the days of my appointed time will I wait until my change comes." He said, "I will wait and now my change has come. You all have done all you could for me and now I am satisfied. I will soon be in my home of the blest."
By his loving wife and children.

This Wonderful Vessel Has Made History During Three Centuries
She marked the beginning and the end of England's monstrous penal system.
She has held lurid horror and dreadful iniquities beside which even the terrible stories of the Black Hole of Calcutta and the Spanish Inquisition pale into insignificance.
She is the oldest ship in the world and the only convict ship left afloat of that dreadful "Fleet of Ocean Hells" which sailed the Seven Scas in 1780 A. D.
She is unchanged after all these years, nothing being omitted but her human freight and their suffering from the cruelties and bararities practiced upon them.
Aboard her are now shown, in their original state, all the airless dungeons and condemned cells, the whipping post, the manacles, the branding irons, the punishment balls, the leaden-tipped cat-o'-nine tails, the coffin bath and the other flendish inventions of man's brutality to his fellow-man.
From keel to top-mast, she cries aloud the greatest lesson the world has ever given in the history of human progress.
Convict Ship "Success" is the Greatest and Most Extraordinary Exhibition That Ever Visited. —srica. It is a Theme for the Pen of a Dante.

BOTH RACES BEAR BISHOP TO LAST RESTING PLACE
Late Bishop John Murray Requested Services of Last Ordained

St. James Rector Is an Honorary Pall Bearer.
With both races represented as active and honorary pall bearers and thousands as mourners, Bishop John Gardener Murray, white head of the Protestant Episcopal church in the United States, was buried here, Sunday.
By his own request, the eight last ordained ministers, which included two colored, were the active palebearers. These two were the Rev. Tollic Caution; assistant minister at St. John's First, African church and the Rev. J. Croll, priest in charge of St. Phillips' church. Annapolis.
Dr. Bragg, Honorary
Among the honorary palebearers were Dr. George P. Bragg, Jr. pioneer, Protestant Episcopal leader and pastor of St. James, who with Dr. A. H. Maloney of Provident hospital, stood guard at the bier thousands of mourners passed the last respect the remains it in state in the chapel of Remembrance in the basement of St. Michael and All Angels' Church. In this procession also were hundreds of race men and women from this city and Annapolis who directly or indirectly had been under the spiritual guidance of the late prelate.
Dignitaries Attend
Besides Governor Ritchie, Mayor William Broening, Senator P. L. Goldsborough, Representative J. Charles Linthium and leading judges of the court there were leaders representing every wolf of life in the funeral procession.

Tukegee Institute Plans a Silver Jubilee
Dr. Moton Recalls Visit of Roosevelt in 1906
TUSKEGEE INST.. ALA.—Recommendations pointing towards the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the founding of Tuskegee Institute in 1931 are included in President Robert R. Moton's annual report of the work of the Tuskegee for the academic year 1927-28, recently published.
Dr. Moton recalls the observance of the 25th anniversary of 1906, "which brought to the institution a host of visitors from among the most distinguished educators, public officials and private citizens of our country including the president of the United States and attracted the faculty notice the land to be throughout the land to achievements which so short a time had been wrought by Brooker T. Washington, its founder."
The 50th anniversary celebration will aim to "pay further tribute to the genius of Tuskegee's Founder and the far reaching influence of his life and work."
President Hoover will be invited.

RACE BOSSES ARE BAD AS WHITES SAYS FRANCIS
Declaring that while political and social equality of the races are things to be desired, they would not solve the Negro problem, Rothchild Francis, Virgin Islander and editor of the Liberator, urged complete scrapping of our present economic system, at the meeting held under auspices of the International Labor Defense at the Y.M.C.A. Monday evening. With all the political and social equality possessed by any race in this and other countries, the condition of the masses, pressed down under the yoke of the press system of wags distribution, the bulk of the population, he said, would be in about same condition as they are today.
"There is no reason to believe," said Editor Francis, "that a group of Negro capitalists would be more generous with working men, and not extract more blood money than white bosses."
In Africa, the speaker said, "high hatred in authority, as black as I am, make humble labor slaves bow to them, and they take the lion's share of the things the laborer works for. Political and social equality in America would only add a few more parasites to those already effectively making slaves out of working men."
The Finance System
"What the race workers the world over need to do," he said, "is to join with white, brown, yellow and all colors of workers to overthrow the present economic system."
Protests U.S. S. R.
Mr. Francis, with militant editorials have kept the world informed of the sufferings of the Islanders under. American rule, arrived here last week and plans to lodge a formal protest at the State Department against the effects of the United States rule upon the people of the islands, who are for the most part colored. According to Mr. Francis, the islands have suffered bitterly since the United States naval rule began. He cites numerous instances of the abuse of the native population by the naval government.
He points out that the marines, who have carried race prejudice and its attendant evils to the islands, are never punished in civilian courts. Nor is there any political redress. For, although the natives were granted the franchise in 1927, the franchise is monetary, and the Colonial Council, according to Mr. Francis, is composed entirely of landlords and their agents.
PORTER INJURED IN TRAIN WRECK
STANFORD, Ky. (CNS)—Passengers in three sleepers and two day coaches were thrown about from side to side as the wheels left the rails and the cars bumped along until one of them struck a bridge abutment on the Louisville and Nashville railroad near here on Friday, October 4. The cars overturned, one landing end-up after sliding down an embankment. Witnesses reported that all of the coaches were in danger of going into the creek when the coach came to the edge. Among the twenty-one persons injured was the Pullman porter Charles P. Jackson.
Trusty Walks Out;
Totten Case Up
KANSAS CITY, Mo.—Eddie Thomas, who assaulted Vice-President Ashley L. Totten of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters here in April, and who was convicted and sentenced to three months' imprisonment, has escaped. Thomas was a trusty, and just walked out.
Ellis K. Burton, who was named as the "brains of the job," and who is a noted underworld character, was scheduled to be arraigned for trial on September 30th upon the charge of accomplice in the crime. Thomas was to be chief witness against him.
It is significant, therefore, that the escape of Thomas was effected just before the trial of Burton.

CLEVELAND, O. — Mrs. Lethia Fleming, wife of the indicted former councilman, Thomas W. Fleming, announced her withdrawal from the race for council in the third district last Wednesday "in the interest of harmony in the Republican party."

PRETTY JAMAICA GIRL IS HELD SHIP CAPTIVE
With tears flowing and dazed from harrowing experiences during a long steamship voyage, the captive of two waiters who lured her aboard a vessel in Jamaica, pretty 17-year-old Carmen Dale, gave evidence which caused the arrest of Henry Owens and William Stewart, employees on a merchant vessel which docked in the local harbor Tuesday. The men, who gave their homes as New York and Charleston, S.C. respectively, were held for the federal authorities on a whitie slave charge.
Lured Aboard
According to Miss Dale, she met the men at a social affair in Jamaica while the ship upon which they were employed was docked there. They were nice, "oh. so nice," she sobbed and she accepted an invitation to inspect the big ship which came from this country. While she was looking over the ship they took her into their quarters and kept her prisoner until the ship started a few hours later. During the entire trip, trip, she said, she was kept a prisoner and the companion of the two men who occupied the little room. When the ship arrived in Baltimore, Tuesday.

ASKS SURVEY OF MARRIED TEACHERS
PHILADELPHIA--The United Business Men's Association has asked the board of education to make a survey of the number of married women teaching in the public schools.
The question is raised as to how many of these married teachers have husbands earning a living wage. The association is of the opinion that where women teachers are married to professional and business men who are earning enough to support them these teachers should be placed on a substitute list and their places taken by normal school graduates on the waiting list, which waiting list is well up in the hundreds.
the men smuggled her ashore, in some way evading the customs officials; and they were seeking a room for her. Forrrest street, when she took her story to a woman, who informed the police.
Is Pretty
Miss Dale is a pretty, slender miss of light brown complexion and wavy black hair. She wore a short blue skirt which exposed chiffon-hose-covered knees and black pumps. Her white rayon blouse was caught in front by a tie, which matched the skirt. She will be held by U.S. authorities until the men are called, it is said, and then will be sent back to Jamaica.

PULLMAN PROFITS,
BUT WON'T INCREASE
PORTERS' WAGE
The latest reports from the Pullman company reveal the fact that the profits of the company for the months of April, May and June of this year were $9,324,208. This represents a gain of nearly $200,000 over the previous three months. These profits are announced "after charges, depreciation, federal taxes, etc." and commenting on this, one in paper states, "this means that large amounts of funds are set aside for vans and funds, and after accounts exhaust their ingenuity concealing net income, profits are announced."
However, with all this profit, the Pullman company is still resisting efforts of cofedored workers and mails to staffing porters. They depend on tips. These workers are affiliating with the A. P. of L.
