BOOTLEGGING IN MEN STILL GOES ON IN AFRICA Illegal Slave Traffic Continues Despite Many Bans. Thinks U.S. Plans African Colony. PARIS.—Is the United States going to use the allegation that slavery exists in Liberia as a pretext to establish herself in Africa? This, at least, is the belief of more than one European newspaper. The Manchester Guardian, speaks of the proposed inquiry that is to be made in Liberia on that subject, has published views which, if they have any foundation, are of considerable importance and worthy of men- His newspaper declares that at Genoa no one would be sur, used if the United States, after the inquiring was invited to take a poor part in the government of the Liberia. It thinks that the wealth of the great united wealth of Africa that the United States is disposed to extend its colonial empire into West Africa. Liberia Denies In the meaning, the Liberian govern- ment made emphatic denial guerney, in the European press, and the Guardian adds: Besides, it may be remarked that if the Liberians sold the slave to the British coast of Africa or in the later plantations, these merchants left Europeans or subjects of European powers, women or soldiers and may easily for their government to control this traffic in their colonial colonies, where the Liberians workman go for fixed periods to work at their various occupations.* **All the time.** **That is, that slavery in some form another exists all over Africa regardless of the power in control.

Bootlegging in Men In French North Africa the slave markets have been closed by the government but the slave-traffic goes on like booing in the United States, white and black, in the work and for the haren. And in a land where living conditions are very hard, it is the slave himself or herself, who is often the first to welcome a purchase—in order that he may receive regular In British East Africa, slavery still exists taking on a barbaric scale. The Negroes are forced to work on the plantations, the same being also true of Portuguese slaves. In South Africa, north of Cape Co- pitation conditions have been improved so that sellers can sell them for a fixed period, during which time they suffer virtual slavement. Sierra Leone Slavery was abolished in Sierra Leone only last year, it will be re-abolished Sierra Leone is England's oldest colony in Africa, and since slavery was abolished throughout the British dominions in 1883 the country is the world's largest of the world at Dugas that it still existed there. The emperor can feel sure, however, that the decree has not wiped out all slaves in Sierra Leone, any more than the 13th Amendment has desecrated slaves in the Southern Union or the decree of President Garrison has prevented peonage in Mongolia.

VA. UNIT OUTLAWED N. Y. Sent Race Man to In- (Crusader News Service) NEW YORK.—Failure to free themselves of the influence of the imperialist ideology of Nordic superiority and race hostility and separation, resulted in the expulsion of thirty-five white members of the Communist party, it was announced here Saturday at the plenary session of the central committee of the party. Siegel, the organization secretary, reported the expulsion of two white members in Seattle, Washington, for propagandizing against the participation of Negro workers in party dances and affairs. Siegel, then took note of those who voted against the expulsion of these two, with the result that twelve others were soon summarily expelled for 'condoning' white chauvinism Norfolk Unit Out The secretary also reported the expulsion of almost an entire unit in Norfolk, Va., for refusing to meet with the Negro comrades in the same department. The commissioner Comrade Hall (a Negro member of the central committee and one of the recognized leaders of the Communist party) to Norfolk to deal with the white members. Comrade Hall was given full powers of a CEE member, and was instructed to expel Comrade Hall had investigated, had found the complaint true, and had summarily expelled all but one white member of the unit. The fight against white chauvinism in the American working class ran like a red thread through all the proceedings of the plenum of the central committee, which lasted for three days. The determination to crush out all vestige of race prejudice was evident in the speech of every member of the committee. As a concrete expression of this determination to wage a relentless struggle against white chauvinism, the plenum of the Central Committee, Huskwind, as chairman for the first session. Another expression of this determination to wipe out this influence of imperialism was to be seen in the agenda for the plenum. Three Questions Although only three subjects were taken up, the Negro question was one of the most important tasks of the trade union work of the party, which also gave great attention to the task of organizing the Negro workers in the same unions; and a report on the inner party situation. The Negro comrades, together with the Japonese, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean workers, active and leader, part in all discussions. Party Institutions In waging a relentless struggle against white chauvinism, the Communist party of the U.S.A. is carrying out the categorical instructions of the Communist Party. These instructions are lengthy and categorical and include the following: "The party must link up the struggle on behalf of the Newcomer general campaigns party. The party must be part and parcel of all and every campaign conducted by the party." PLAN P.E. MISSION FREDERICKSBURG, Va. — Rev. Thomas D.

DEMOCRATS LOSE Announce Intention to Go to Supreme Court. WASHINGTON, D. C.—The Supreme Court of the United States is expected to decide ultimately the right of a Negro to vote in a Democratic primary. That question is the point at issue in a case appealed from the United States district court at Richmond, Va., to the Circuit Court of Appeals, the fourth circuit court a jury in the lower court had returned a verdict awarding nominal damages of $5 to James O. West, claiming to be a lifelong Democrat, who sued three by virtue of a bill for $0,000 for denying him the privilege of voting in a local Democratic primary. Refused Vote The officials refused to permit him to vote on the ground that the Virginia law gave each political party the right to vote in the governor's governing party primaries and the executive committee of the Democratic party had passed a rule barring Negroes from participating in the governor's primaries. Counsel for both plaintiff and defendant in the suit, which is designed to test the constitutionality of the primary law, agreed to the nomination of the plaintiff in the higher court as quickly as possible. Whichever way the case is decided, the losing side will ask the court to review the certiorari to review the judgment of the Circuit Court of Appeals. Court Acted The Supreme Court has already held that a state statute which denies to Negroes the right to vote at a primary election as a right of Xionx against Hernad, decided by the Supreme Court March 7, 1927, a Texas statute being held unconstitutional. Texas promptly passed another statute giving to each political party its state executive committee, the power to determine qualifications of members of that party. This act was sustained in an opinion by District Judge Hutcheson against Harris, decided July 23, 1928. Modelled After Texas The Virginia statute was modeled after the Texas statute, but District Judge Groner held it to be invalid. In his opinion Judge Groner said: "The Legislature, pursuant to constitutional authority, has undertaken to authorize them to be held at the public expense and to provide the same rules and regulations applicable to an election, may not directly exclude a duly qualified voter who declares himself to be an adherent to the party participating in the exercise of his right of suffrage. Impartial Suffrage "The Fourteenth Amendment compels the adoption of what is called impartial suffrage. Its purpose was to establish all oval office and judicial positions; that each of these may understand the constitutional fact that his privileges and immunities cannot be abridged by state authority, and that these rights are not comprehemed not comprehended all within its scope." These two conflicting decisions will be made the basis for the application to the Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari to review the decision. The United States district court at Richmond.

They do not consider it fair for a Negro of education, high character, and distinct achievement to be placed upon a par with the indolent, ignorant and shiftless Negro, simply because both happen to have African blood flowing through their veins. They should not be permitted to color of race their spurs should be permitted to wear them.

Can Develop Giants or Dwarfs to Order. WASHINGTON. (CNS)—Claiming that as a result of fifteen years of painstaking research and experiment, he is now able to change a black man into a white man, an Indian into a Japanese, a dwarf into a giant and a potential criminal into an upstanding member of society, Dr. Yusaburo Noguchi, Japanese biologist, who has just arrived in this country from Brazil, has created quite a sensation here. Dr. Noguchi said that by his process he can regulate man's stature and the breadth of the shoulders; can take the spots off of a leopard and the stripes off of a zebra. He intends, he said, to devote his work to the Japanese race. He is more than six feet tall and weighs 195 pounds, and he wants to change all Japanese men and women into persons of his own physical type. Dr. Noguchi bribes the Noguchi bribes the Beppu Japan. His treatment, he said, includes the use of sun rays, ultra-violate rays, special diets and glandular treatments. Racial characteristics (or as scientists say, somatic characters), declares, are the combination of glandular secretions and physical environment. On the basis of knowledge he has acquired in an extensive world tour, he claims, he can practically build an infant to order, halting its growth or stimulating it, fixing its stature, breadth and other physical characteristics. Long Time Required Dr. Noguchi said that the racial metamorphosis which he proposes could not be effected overnight, but would require several generations. He added: "Given time, I could change the Japanese into a race of tall blue-eyed blonds." He said that the Japanese government is vitally interested in his experiments.

Recruiting Halted Recruiting and subsidizing college ball players was stopped at a meeting of the Board of Dr. Mordecal W. J. Wokousa, a president. This was two years ago in his action caused a strike of football players, and the result in Howard having one of the poorest teams in the history of the institution. Johnson came to Howard he found both recruiting and subsidizing carried on by the athletic authorities and the alumni linked by the Lions. He also recruited Ted Morrison, his head coach, recalled Louis L. Watson, who had been there in 1923, and its scout recruited some of the greatest football players who have ever worn the Howard colors. Smith Was Scout Charley West had just ended his career at Washington and Jefferson. He was a great football player and was a great coach to come to Howard to watch Watson in coaching. Emory B. Smith who was at that time alumni secretary and supporting President of Stanley Durkee, again from the school with having done most of the scoring for players, going into the middle west and the far south in search of football material. He was then coaching Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute at Petersburg, Va. He had three football stars at that school. They were Jack Cole, Dan Brown and "Horse" Ross. Watson brought them along with him. Four Men From Chicago The Dunbar Phillips, High School basketball team of Chicago. Ill. played the Dunbar High School in the spring of 1924. There were three star basketball players on the dell Phillips team. They all four of them entered Howard. One of them was Dennis Simpson, a fast end. Miller From Union Recruiting had been carried on before that year. Bob Miller. 202-point guard, had been induced to teach ginnies, had been induced to numbered number of credits for admission into Howard. Arrangements were made for him to attend Dunbar and get them. "Biff" Martin had come from the academy and the academy had been taught football by a former Washington and Jefferson coach. "Red" Tyson was recruited from Pennsylvania. Louis Campbell had come from the Dunbar High School. Two Seasons Without Defeat With this aggregation of football players, augmented by others. Wilson and his charges romped through the seasons of 1923 and 1926 within a defeat. 2020 Dr. Johnson came to Hardair as his president. He found football players being given board and lodging during the entire football season. A special table was set up for Free Bard Abolished After the candidates for the football team had reported for practice in September, 1927, without notice Dr. Johnson announced that the football training table would be arranged and the players would be paid to pay for training and learning in the opening of school. Sort thm were unprepared.

The players broke training and turned in their uniforms.

La Depaume Colonial Paris daily, recalls the great scandal that was known as the Black Shame. "The Black Shame" was the presence of the black troops in the Rhineland, thus bringing them into proximity with white women. "What an agitation the presence of those Senegalese sharpshooters caused," reflects the writer. "Today the few colored soldiers there are officers servants. "In December, 1918, the African troops had been stationed in the localities of the extreme zone of occupation and in important centres, like Ludwigshafen. But in spite of all that has been related by the press and the German patriotic associations, the black men did not con- situate any "Long before the war, at each colonial exposition in German towns, there was a veritable feminine run on the Negro villages. That was well known. The German police often found themselves in the necessity of restraining the arder of the German women to get at the black men. It will be recalled on this subject that, due largely to the agitation of Congressman Britten and his wife, the United States made an official inquiry into theutter of Negro troops on the Rhineland, and both General Henry Men and M. Dreisel, the commissioner, reported that it was often necessary to station guards to prevent the German women from entering the barracks windows to the black men. going there.

CASE HELD UP Court to Rule. on Whether Scott Got $8,000. WASHINGTON, D.C. — (CNS) — Startling disclosures resulted from the hearing on law points in the suit of the Odd Fellows Hall Association against Isaac W. Scott, of 1455 Corcoran Street, former treasurer of the organization, for $3,000 alleged shortage in the bank account at the time of the receipt of the books by the new treasurer. Justice Siddons, presiding in circuit court, overruled two of the motions of the defendant's attorneys, Martin and Hughes, when they attempted to establish that the statute of limitations had run against the action, and that the plaintiff be required by court to make more specific disclosure of the amounts and the time the treasurer had received them. Never Received $8.000 Their third motion, however, was taken under advisement. This claimed that the defendant had never received the $8,000 for which he is being sued, for many of the checks given to Scott were the personal checks of the general manager, William O. Davis, a local attorney, which later proved worthless. Negligent This allegation produced a stir in the court room. The plaintiff's attorney, George E. C. Hayes, of Harvard Hayes, and Davy Hayes, of hank's monthly statements should have shown such a condition and that Scott was negligent in not reporting the same to the association.

U.S. DRUNKEN COLLEGE BOYS IN GOOD SHOW White Lads Thrown Out of Paris Cabarets Every Night. BOUNCERS EMPLOYED Americans Expelled as Soon as they Get Rowdy. PARIS (Afro Bureau)—Writing about Parisian bar room brawls, Alex Small, columnist for the Paris edition of the Chicago Tribune throws considerable light on the doings of rowdy white Americans in Paris. He says: "I believe that night-club brawling is much more general and hearty now than it ever was. It is certain that Americans play a conspicuous part; for pugnacity seems to be our most characteristic national trait. "Montparnasse and Montmartre are, of course, the principal battlegrounds. If you like brawls, either as a participant or as a spectator, you have a wealth of choice, and almost any night after two in the morning you may be reasonably sure of getting your money's worth. A Good Show "I regret that I cannot give precise addresses but let me assure you that there is one joint in Montmartre where, during the college season, our dear drunken little college-boy puts on a good show. "The measurement co-operates by having highly efficient flying wedge of bouncers, who can carom brawlers off the facades on the other sides of the street at the rate of three a minute." No Mixed Couples The cabaret mentioned by Mr. Small, specializes in Southerners. It is a bit of darkest Mississippi in the heart of Paris. It is the only cabaret in Paris where colored, or mixed couples are not allowed to dance, not that there is any objection on the part of the management, but such couples would instantly be assailed by showers of champagne bottles and glasses thrown by drunken white. Southerners. J. A. ROGERS IS TO COME HOME PARIS—After nearly three years of residence and travel in Europe, J. A. Rogers, author and correspondent of the AFRO-AMERICAN, is returning to America.

SEEK $2,000,000 H. U. SCHOOL OF RELIGION Nation-Wide Campaign for Building and Endowment. 80 SCHOLARSHIPS University Now Recruiting Men. WASHINGTON. (CNS)—With $2,000,000 set as the goal, Howard university will soon launch a nation-wide campaign for the school of religion, in an effort to raise the standard of Negro spiritual leadership, it was learned here Friday. The plans for the campaign were practically completed at a conference Thursday afternoon with Presi- ident Mordecal W. dent Benjamin D. Bratt, D. Pratt, of the school of religion; Prof. William Stuart, President of philosophy and assistant to the administrator and Rev. recently appointed field agent of the school of religion; interest of the interest of the campaign. Johnson, Dean Butler D. Pratt, of the school of religion; William Stuart Nelson, professor of philosophy and assistant to the admin. ratio and Rev. G. Olden, recently appointed field agent of the state police who will travel in the interest of the campaign. 80 Scholarships A quarter of a million dollars for eighty endowed scholarships, ranging from $100 to $5000 in the drive. The committee hopes that it will be possible to raise the greater part of this amount within the next few months from the Friends of the drive in Washington. The eighty endowed scholarships will include eight of $250 each, sixteen of $200 each, sixteen of $150 and forty of $100 each. A fund of $1000 creates a new business for the school of religion, and the endowment of salaries for full time professors, are included in the $2,000,000 fund which they seek. To Raise Standard Howard university has taken this important step in an effort to raise the standard of Negro spiritual leadership, realizing that the educational advancement of this group lags far behind the educational attainments of the laymen. Need 2,000 Preachers Approximately two thousand new ministers are required annually to fill the pulpits of Negro churches, the seminaries and fifty four of those—less than one per cent—possesses college and seminary training. Only one in thirty is a graduate of high school and seminary, a professional training of any kind, while, 1,679, or eighty-three per cent, have little or no education. Less than seventy Negroes with college degrees are serving in all the seminaries. Recruited Students Sometimes ago Howard university entered upon a campaign to recruit students who were fitted by adequate preliminary training in college education. With the assistance of a limited number of scholarships, it succeeded in interesting a considerable group of college students. Now faced with the serious problem of providing adequate facilities for the training of these students with superior qualifications. It is worth that they are launch-ing the drive. All Denominational It is the hope of the administration that the Howard university school of religion may be the first institution to remain of the university. As an inter-denominational school of graduate grade, which will rank with the first in the university, it believed that it will fill a great need. The seven existing theological schools for Negroes, which are of college grade, are all denominational.

Your sound and thorough education, your training in the law of the United States District Attorney, all unite to qualify you in exceptional degree to be a representative. Congress.

Tuttle, United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Mr. Tuttle wrote Mr. Delany as follows: "It is a privilege to support your candidacy for Congress. Your two years of association in the United States Attorney's office demonstrated not only to me but to all who have come in contact with you that you have all the qualities of ability, integrity, and energy we desire in our representatives in Congress. Your career has been one of outstanding achievement; and irrespective of any other consideration, you are fully entitled to popular support because of your exceptional merit." "Moreover, I believe that is in accordance with the American spirit of fair play and that it makes for the good of the country that all our large groups should have fair representation to the councils of Government."

He no wonder that the New York Negro turns more and more to the Democrats. Mr. Morton sent out two letters this week. One was addressed to the public utilities office of the city and asked to liberalize their employment policy to include capable Negro applicants. This letter points to the 275 colored employees in various city departments and to the workforce daily in harmony and friendship without protest from the public, as a refutation of the argument that the employment of Negroes by the utilities might impair efficiency or antagonize the public. Mr. Morton said that few, if any Even Overnight Your skin will improve of the public utilities which the Negro by force must patronize, will give colored people employment then be allowed to work in the garden of education or experience, and in this respect are far less liberal than the city government.

Sellignand, director of publicity. The presiding magistrate, Mark Rudich, interrupted the hearing to call all parties into his chambers, in an effort to make an adjustment whereby the boys would drop their complaint against the patrolman in return for having the trumped up charges against them of assault and disorderly conduct dismissed. Upon advice of the N.A.A.C.F., representatives of the boys decided against any compromise and proceeded with the trial, whereupon the magistrate, after a very brief hearing, dismissed all charges. Cop Shot Wrong Man It was freely admitted out of court that the patrolman had shot the wrong man, but despite this, on the stand he and his young woman com- mitted to the court. Lincoln students as ones who had been "arrested" and who had tried to escape. This testimony absolutely conflicted with that of eyewitnesses Immediately after the dismissal of the charges, the N.A.A.C.P. telegramged that the police department investigation both of Patrolman Lowe's actions and his testimony on the stand, should be entrusted with a revolver. 0 THEAFFO AMERICAN An Independent Weekly Newspaper A Champion of Civic Welfare and The Square Deal Published evt.

Moorfield Storey The nation is poorer today because of the death of Mocfrid Storey, white at 85, president or the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People since its beginning, 19 years ago. Mr. Storey was an upstanding citizen of national repute. In his busy life, he was president of the American Bar Association, Boston and Massachusetts Bar Associations, an overseer of Harvard College, editor of the American Law Review, and with it all, an active practicing lawyer. Many friends of the Negro are willing to give a hospital, a library, or a scholarship, but few are willing to give themselves with their money for the cause of full Negro citizenship in the United States. Mr. Storey wrote the brief which knocked out the infamous grandfather clause as a disfranchising agency in Southern States. The nation is poorer today because of the death of Mcorfield Store, white, at 85, president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People since its beginning, 19 years ago. Mr. Storey was an unstanding citizen of national repute. In his busy life, he was president of the American Bar Association, Boston and Massachusetts Bar Associations, an overseer of Harvard College, editor of the American Law Review, and with it all, an active practicing lawyer. Many friends of the Negro are willing to give a hospital, a library, or a scholarship, but few are willing to give themselves with their money for the cause of full Negro citizenship in the United States. That is what Mr. Storey did in 1915 in writing the brief which knocked out the infamous grandfather clause as a disfranchising agency in Southern States. That is what he did in arguing the Louisville law against which he won before the U.S. Supreme Court in 1917. Without money and without reward, except for the thanks of a grateful Negro people, in 1923 he argued the case that saved six innocent Arkansas Negroes who had been condemned to death after the Supreme Court reversed itself, for it had decided in the celebrated Leo Fran: case that it had no right to interfere with decisions of the lower courts, even though it were shown that the trial of the prisoner was dominated by mob-spirit. That same year, 1924 he broadcast an appeal to "Won't you do your part towards bringing common justice and equal opportunity to all Americans, regardless of color?" On the question of segregation, Mr. Storey, crusading militantly, declared: Without money and without reward, except for the thanks of a grateful Negro people, in 1923 he argued the case that saved six innocent Arkansas Negroes who had been condemned to death after the massacres in that state. In this case the Supreme Court reused itself, for it had been celebrated Leo Peppery, who it had no right to interfere with decisions of the lower courts, even though it were shown that the trial of the prisoner was dominated by mob-spirit. That same year, 1923, he broadcast an appeal for funds for the N.A.A.C.P., which ended: "Won't you do your part towards bringing common justice and equal opportunity to all Americans, regardless of color?" On the question of segregation. Mr. Storey, crusading militantly, declared: "No more important question can be presented to this court. The interests of ten million citizens are at stake. In their efforts to rise from slavery to equality with the fellow-men they are everywhere by the effort to keep them from and to deny them the opportunity which the Constitution us all. "If they can be forbidden to live on their own land they can be forbidden to work at their own trade. If this is possible, the prejudice against which the Fourteenth Amendment was framed to defend the Negroes triumphs over it, and the amendment itself becomes a better helper. It does not protect the rights of all citizens, it does not protect the rights of any, since it knows no distinction of race or color." Read those paragraphs again, and you will understand the lofty character of Mr. Storey—his love of justice, of plain humanity, and his insistence upon fair play. Old John Brown at Harpers Ferry appealed to force, but Mr. Streey, speaking in 1924 as president of the N.A.A.C.P., appealed to the spirit of civic and legal justice through the courts. Said he: Read those paragraphs again, and you will understand the lofty character of Mr. Storey—his love of justice, of plain humanity, and his insistence upon fair play. Old man Harper's foresight (force), but Mr. Storey, in 1924 as president of the N.A.A.C.P. appealed to the spirit of civic and legal justice through the courts. Said he: "Let it be generally understood that it is not safe to injure a colored man or woman, that lynching is dangerous to the lynchers, that the colored citizens of this country are determined to assert their rights under the Constitution and laws, and those rights will be respected and the progress of the race will be more rapid." Mr. Storey was no less a crusader, no less a hero, because he was the freedom of the man down with law boots and precedents rather than with sword and rifle. His friends say he learned at the feet of the great senator and abolitionist, Charles Sumner, whose secretary he was. No matter. He achieved greatness in his own right. He prodded the conscience of the American people. He gave its highest tribunal no rest and no alternative except to carry out the plain intent and letter of the Constitution. Moorfield Storey's body lies mouldering in the grave. The Negro race mourns, not for him whose soul is marching on but lest there is no great white American fit to wear his mantle.

Near-Assassins Young Wright, 45, and Charles Bullock, 19, out in Indiana, made an experiment Thursday which caused them to wake up in the county jail Friday morning, and find their names on the front page of all the nation's newspapers. On Friday, an American citizen tried to fall to pieces which they wanted to wreck so that they could collect the insurance on it. Why not put it on the railroad tracks with just the edge of the front wheels and bumper so placed that an oncoming train would push it gently down a steep grade into a ditch? The didn't foresee that Enoch Keller would come by the car of a white farmer, pull the auto off the tracks. Moreover, they had no idea that the next train was a special bearing President Herbert Hoover and high government officials at sixty miles an hour. In fact, they were surprised when told that their pretty plot to defraud an insurance company was based on the life of the nation's head, of his wife, his advisers and thousands of dollars in property. Life is like that. An apparently insignificant snowball starts a snow slide. A discarded lighted cigarette started the fire that wiped out Baltimore's business district. A bullet fired in a ball in Bosnia, started the World War and caused the death of millions on the battle fields of Europe. Two thoughtless colored men might have caused the death of President Hoover, thereby automatically bringing Vice-President Curtis into office and changing the entire character of the country's administration for the next six years. The same and calumny that would have been heaped upon the entire race as a result of this act would have taken five years to run its course. But what two colored men planned, one thwarted, and so we are back at taw. Life is like that. An apparently insignificant snowball starts a snow slide.

Dorothy Mackaill, white, film, queen, witness in the trial of her secretary accused of falsifying the queen's income tax returns, denied the allegation as follows: "The whole damned thing is false."

Football may be king, but money is the power behind the throne. One bright spot in this racket is Myers's own statement: "I play football for the sport or fun I get out of it," he said. "If I were not allowed to play in the Georgia game it would probably save me a hard game. If I felt I wasn't wanted in the game, I wouldn't get any fun out of it."

The biggest thing in the mind of the American Nation is the recognition socially, economically and politically, to which he feels justly entitled. By the term "socially," he does not mean that all Negroes, as such, should be received and accepted on an equal social footing with all white people. He rightly acknowledges hisocracy of character and intellect, and that when he should be, an individual at least, be free and fully admitted into this aristocracy. But on the other hand, as regards his economic and political status, he feels that under the Constitution he has equal rights with every other citi- The biggest thing in the mind of the American Negro today is the recognition socially, economically and politically, as well as socially, "he" does not mean that all Negroes, as such, should be received and accepted on an equal social footing with all white people. He rightly believes in the aristocracy of character and intellect, and that when his character, he is an individual at least, be freely and fully admitted into this aristocracy. But on the other hand, as regards his economic and political status, he feels that under the Constitution he has equal rights with every other citizen. For long years the Negro race has battled for this recognition, but as yet has received it but scantily. Now, when he wakes to the fact, he is in position to compel it, politically at least, by welding a club, viz., that of the ballot in the States where he holds the balance of power. In the history of individuals, communities, States, nations, and national groups, the Negro population top-over-ride all other considerations that ordinarily actuate them; when for example, a supreme issue is at stake. Race Recognition Outweighs Parties. Such is now the case with the colored race in America. Race opportunity and race recognition is of much greater importance to the Negro in the United States than is partisan politics. Heretofore Negroes when in the United States supported the Republican party, if for no other reason than because Abraham Lincoln, the great Republican, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. Since the Emancipation Proclamation carried the Negro vote in its vest pocket, and has boasted the ability to deliver it any time. Excepting the last campaign, the Democratic party in the United States, and in the Republican North has not sought no expected it. Such is now the case with the colored race in America. Race opportunity and race recognition is of much greater importance to the Negro in the United States than is partisan politics. Heretofore, Negroes have been a rule supported the Republican party, if for no other reason than because Abraham Lincoln, the great Republican, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. Since that time the Republican party, as it were, has carried the Negro vote in its vest pocket, and has been the most successful last campaign, the Democratic party in the "Solid South" has seceded the Negro vote, and in the Republican North has not sought not expected it. All that could prevent this might minority from startling the nation and the world, by numbing the racial solidarity, and the moral stamina to withstand the unholly influences of political bribery and trickery to influence it at the polls. While American Negroes by heritage, are Republican, they are, by nature, the most democratic people in the world; and were well as in precept, it would be easier for Negroes to be Democratic in politics than it is for them to be Republican. The only emphatic way in which they could demonstrate their power in national politics would be to go solidly Democratic in a nation where there are极好 matching bodies who predict that the state is not far distant when they will actually do this. Fear of Democratic Leaders. Under proper direction, this might have been accomplished in 1928. There were those among both races who desired it, but fear of consequence among Negroes, necessary to success, Democratic leaders feared that an open campaign for Negro votes might drive Southern Democrats from the party, and thus lose more votes than could be gained. The irony of it is revealed in the fact that a number of rock-ribbed Democratic Southern states went Republican, thus accepting the party that emancipated the Negro, and ever since has stood, theoretically, at least, for so-called Negro equality. Knowing well the situation squares in the face, by a majority of their votes, said. "Give us Negro equality, and other Negroes republican." The object, then, was to Smith of the Roman Catholic Church and Tammany Hall." And, now, if everything works according to program, as is naturally to be expected, our Southern sisters and brethren must prepare, figuratively, to head, pin his ears back, and swallow him whole—body, boots, and breeches." Reviewing the situation, the irony of it is revealed in the fact that a number of rock-ribbed democrats have been accepting the party that manipulated the Negro, and ever since has stood, theoretically, at least, for so-called Negro equality. Knowing well that the Republican party stands for Negro equality, the Republican Party of Florida, Texas, Tennessee, Kentucky, etc., looking the situation squarely in the face, by a majority of their votes, said, "Give us Negro equality, and let us be expected, we have objected, rather than All Smith of the Roman Catholic Church and Tammany Hall." And, now, if everything works according to program it is expected, we should be expected, we should be expected, to grease the colored brother's head, pin his ears back, and swallow him whole-body, boots and breeches." Hoover and Jim-Crow. That will be a bitter pill, but at the same time, a dosage that eventually will cure some Southerners of a malady from which they have suffered for a long time, and has kept the South out of Americanism. It will remove Southern Democracy from under the bushel of sectional seclusion, and enable the hide-bound political South to stretch itself into proportions large enough to easily embrace the entire complex population of the United States in effective political appeal. The campaign of 1928 struck this bond from fear of the potential for radical Hoover actually did it. In the long run this will prove most fortunate for the Democratic party. The task of abolishing the "Jim-Crow" law and of guaranteeing the right of suffrage to all Americans is the task of the Democratic administration; and, those Democrats who caused the election of Mr. Hoover cannot consistently object to the enforcement of all Republican policies. Thus, the South will be broadened and strengthened, and will, in the future, be able to appeal to the Negro on the basis of a democratic life as well as that of Democracy in politics. That will be a bitter pill, but at the same time, a dosage that eventually will cure some Southernners of a malady from which they suffer sufferers of a disease that has its legitimate place in the Sun of National Americanism. It will remove Southern democracy from under the bushel of sectional seclusion, and enable the hide-bound political South to stretch itself into proportions large enough to comfortably embrace the entire complex population of the United States in effective political appeal. The campaign of 1928 struck this bondage from the South. Smith was the cause of it, but the South was the cause of it, and will prove most fortunate for the Democratic party. The task of abolishing the "Jim-Crow" law and of guaranteeing the right of suffrage to Negroes in the South will rest with the Republican party. The party will not cause the election of Mr. Hoover cannot consistently object to the enforcement of all Republican policies. Thus, the South will be broadened and educated into a wider humanitarianism, and will appeal to the Negro on the basis of a democratic life as well as that of Democracy in politics. Must be a Race Movement. To win the solid Negro vote for the Democratic party more than mere political maneuvering, subsidising of some Negro newspapers, and "gumshoe" work will be required. The great mass of Negro voters will not follow Negro editors and press, unless they are convinced that it is for the good of the race as a whole. The movement must be led by the outstanding men and women of the race, such as the great educators, preachers, and successful business men who have no political axes to grind. It is also a race movement, as above indicated, for the emphatic purpose of demonstrating race power in national politics. Then, convinced that the Democratic party will give them, if placed in power, a square foot of ground, there is every reason to believe this winning minority may be turned to Democracy; and, a new, and startling page will be written into the history of American politics.

Democrats Can Win with Negro. One thing certain, it is going to be difficult for the party to ever win, without at least substantially dividing the Negro vote; and further, there is little doubt of its winning, whenever able to carry the sola Negro vote in the doubtful States. There are other minorities occasionally arising, which guiding party ties, and for reasons other than party devotion, become able to bring victory or defeat to either party. The Farm Bloe, or other blocs rising from time to time, in the halls of legislation, may be carried into political campaigns, and as independent of party affiliation as they are favorable to their demands, may hold balance of power and determine the issues of elections. Prohibition. It was as a mighty minority that Prohibition fought its way into national recognition. Within the memory of us, as in many other cases, anti-Saloon League were considered as jokes; but they fought on, year after year, until they became factors of which the politicians were afraid; and, when the issue of national prohibition was brought into Congress, the measure was passed, as much as possible, to oppose the will of the minority prohibition vote at home, as because of their personal convictions on the question. No doubt the same principle still holds. It is extremely doubtful whether a majority of our republicans will favor prohibition as we have it today; but it is certain that, as yet, many of them are afraid to oppose the law, because of the voting power of their constituents.

Wise Leadership. In the process of reconstruction and organization for victory, the Democratic party in addition to the Republican masses, must constantly bear in mind the minorities which may be swayed from one party to another. To win all of them, or any important one of them, may mean victory. To lose them, or any of them, may mean defeat. This has been demonstrated by past performance of members for wise leadership to-profit by the experience. in the process of reconstruction and organization for victory, the Democratic party, in addition to nation-wide education of the electorate, must be able to mobilize constituencies.

To win them, or any of them, may be swayed by past performance, and it remains for wise leadership to profit by the experience. "Let us uphold in principle Mr. Hoover's devotion to the principle of efficient government. But in the meantime, let us convince him, if we can, that the best practical government is that which gives reasonable recognition and satisfaction to all of the elements arranged under it. The Negro says: 'No government is good which is not good to me.'" GOOD GOVERNMENT PATRONAGE President Hoover maintains, in a deliverance ante the lily-white entanglement in Florida, that he hopes to build up a Republican party in the South, not by patronage, but by good government. There are two wide apart theories of government. The one believes that the functions of government should be conducted by those best qualified to perform those duties. The other believes that to the visitor belongs the spoils. Tammany Hall of New York and the Thompson gang of Chicago distribute patronage in proportion votes for the governor, for Tammany or Thompson, he is judged entitled to his just share of jobs, without regard to race, color or previous condition. But the high crowd of, the Suffolk type, insists on recruiting official staff and high brows. Hoover for Competency. Mr. Hoover does not believe in, nor does he practice the representative and distributive principle. He never asks the applicant how many votes he can influence, but what is his competency for the position for which he applies. Merit competency is not conventions are thrust to the rear. He thus invites the inevitable duel between himself and the practical politician. He does not be no compromise, it must be & duel to the death. He will either work a revolution in American politics or himself go down to decisive action. He constitutes half of the voters of the Republican party, and by prevalent political ethics are entitled to like division of the spoils of office, but no such recognition is ac- The Negro politician, with out-stretched palm, bess his pro rata recognition. But Mr. Hoover drops nothing in the black outstretched palm, bess his South man, the black man measures up to his efficiency test. T: So South went Hellbent for Hoover in the last election, but she must stand outside the gate and knock, while the nicest government stations are being filled. Why? Because the South does not measure up to the North. Negro Should be Accorded Recognition. The President is perfectly consistent with this philosophy. I understand this philosophy of good governance. But in practice I must contend that the Negro should be accorded some share in the government on the basis of the present time. I will conceive relative or comparative backwardness and incompetence, at the present time. I will ever have to acquire if other things were equal. But when we compound present weakness with the handicap of race prejudice it is impossible to be given the chance to acquire efficiency. Renunciation of official recognition on the part of the Negro is not equal, if not his everlasting exclusion. Very unfortunately, the Negro has had bad political tuition from the beginning. He has never received his diploma, and he has never been of his teachers have belonged to the school which believes in the theory of spoils. The reconstruction exploiters, like their Satanic prototype, want to take over the school they might devour. The Negro made an apt pupil in the school of patronage and spoils. Smarting under the sting of wrong action, he can by hope of personal gain and advancement, the idea of good government never entered his head. The great Republican leaders whom he has admired a creature have been patronage mongers and spoils manipulators. I do not now recall a single Negro politician who has stood out sienally for the principle of government, and why in government, apart from his own personal fortune. I notice that a non-partisan committee has been formed in New York to promote the relection of Mayor Walker and the perpetuation of the democratic estimate, stands for the antithesis of good government. And yet well nigh every noted name among the Negro intelligentsia is attached to the Negro political barber, one redeeming virtue—It treats the Negro fairly, according to its declared political ethics. Well nigh every Negro politician in Chicago is attached to the repudiated Thompson regime which would dodge good government if it met it in the dark. But Thomson gives the Negro jobs. In the eyes of the politician, jobs outweigh considerations of justice. An aggrieved people must in large measure be concerned with amelioration of their grievances. The Tammamah political barber shrewd political cunning, accord to the Negro continent a larger measure both of jobs and justice than many of the Puritan type of rhethontic pretenders. For this reason the Negro boot-leaving element in most of our large cities. Roosevelt a Friend. Theodore Roosevelt was, by and large, the most enlightened and practical friend that the Negro had had in nubile life. He believed as efficient as John Brown and as Harvard Hoover. But he was a practical politician as well as a high-minded and sagacious, statesman. He encouraged the Negro to develop high public education and to mobilize the militants of the race and elevating them to high public station. He knew that one worthy Negro were lifted up, others would look upwards. One conspicuous appointment. Like the president of Internal Revenue of New York, goes further to convince the Negro of the efficacy of good government than eight years of sermonic disquisition of the Calvin Colloid variety. Let us uphold in principle Mr. Hoover's devotion to the principle of efficient government. But in the meantime, let us convince him, if we can, that the best practical government is that which gives reasonable recognition and satisfaction to all of the elements arranged under it. The Negro says: "No government is good which is not good to me." Chips from the Quarry The methods of forming the plurals of nouns in the English language are so simple and so few that seemingly little or no difficulty would arise applying them. We then have the necessity at least, with proper nouns. Aside from the relatively few words which have irregular plurals (e.g., man, men, women) and foreign languages from foreign languages (e.g., beau, beaue; datum, data; focus, foci) all other plurals END with "s". The irregular plurals and foreign plurals are little trouble. In the case, they are among our most common words; in the other case, they are words not generally used by those whose training is insufficient to handle them. We have experience trouble in dealing with those common nouns whose plurals are formed by merely adding "s" or "es" (e.g., cat, cats; fox, foxes; horse, horse); and those nouns in which we change "y" to "i" and "u" to "v" (e.g., lady, ladies, wife, wives). All of the above relates to COMM nouns. But with proper names, there are a trouble notwithstanding the simplicity of the rule: "Proper nouns form the plural like common nouns of similar endings." There is no difficulty with proper names which do NOT end in "s". Referring to a family name, the nouns in the family write: "All the Browns were there"; or for the Smith family, "All the Smiths"; or as to the Fox family, "the Foxes". But, although we write without hesitation, gases, buses or buses, passes, Misses, yet there is a strange sense of the word. Williams writes that "the oneses" is common enough, in the at least. Such plurals as "the Milless" and "the Williamss," do not sound well, and they keep the tone out but they are correct—according to reason, analogy, and the best authorities—and no one need be squeamish or scruffling them out, or making them out. Some sanction has been given to the use of an apostrophe to avoid the rigid application of the suffix that will probably come in its matter will receive attention in the next talk. F. H. M. M.

Where white and blue and orchid Step daintly with lightsome tread, Like ladies in reception rooms Whose guests are gathered for a ball. And soon the music will begin. In round-eyed wonder at the din The bees are making in their ears. Beneath the overhang eaves The gracious roses are blooming. The giant scarlet leaves No wonder that my neighbor stays In her own yard these summer days! # English Word Often Misused Do not say, "We are going to take in the show tomorrow night."

BIBLE THOTH TODAY LIPE AND GOOD DAYS:—He that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no gulle—1 Peter 3:10. Why Not a Merger of Our Churches? On a carefully compiled map in the office of the Baltimore Urban League are little red-tops tasks showing the location of churches in this city. In the middle section of Northwest Baltimore, walls radiate of five city blocks these little streets show 75 per cent of all new churches in Baltimore in a cluster. Taking the intersection of Drudl a starting point, you can easily successively, to seventy-five per cent of the city churches in three minutes. On the other hand there are whole stretches of densely populated neighborhoods where there are no churches or little church influence. In light of the largest churches in this center of religion where seating capacity at around 14,800, there were approximately 3,800 attendants last Sunday morning—a good church morning—according to AFROAMERICAN reporters. To administer the regular Sunday morning services to these 3,800 attendants in eight churches, there were eight ministers receiving salaries of $400 with an addition of $7,500 in parsonage rents and other perquisites. To house these 3,800 attendants required a capital outlay in church property, around $60,000, to prices listed as paid for the churches. Counting interest on capital investment, salaries and other expenses, it requires $68,000 yearly to conduct the eight churches which which are spending more than $3,800 attendants or about $1,381 for the week starting or ending last Sunday. If no other than the 3,800 attendants contributed the whole expense of last Sunday in these churches, each approximately fifty cents each, service, and when you add the costs of keeping up the general bodies, such as district and general conferences, state and national conferences, etc., you get some reason to believe that collections and entertainments are necessary to support the churches. ALL OF THIS SUGGESTS THAT WITH THE TENDENCY MERGERS IN BUSINESS, COLLEGES, AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS, IT IS ABOUT TIME THAT CHURCHES LOOKED TOWARDS MERGERS TO LESSEN THE WORK OF PATHFUL CHURCH AFFORDANTS AND SUPPORTERS. There is no argument that the total sum collected in these eight churches is too much. The question is, at least it should be possible merge the work of community organization effort, to promote the work of going down into the cages and highways' of taking care of the animals, of conducting civil work in the site spots of the city. For instance, none of these churches are able under the presumptions to do any work in the presupposed areas needed; most of them are loaded down with heavy debts and are struggling to exist themselves. A pooling of efforts, and the consequent toing of overhead, would allow them to greatly increase their efficiency. Let us ask: is there enough Christian fellowship, enough brotherhood, enough strength, enough strength of sacrifice in the leaders in the eight churches in the neighborhood of Drudid Hill avenue and Dolphin; Fremont and Lanvale, to consider seriously how burden of church support, most of which is ground out of the poorer people of the community? Do Our Duty to the Community Fund. Last year the group in Baltimore subscribed $15,000 to the Community Fund. This year, although our budget increased, we should subscribe $25,000. Since we demonstrated our ability to give and pay subscriptions in the recent Provident Hospital drive, we should give $25,000 once 120,000 people to give $25,000 each year, for all charities. Another phase of the matter which should touch our dignity and pride is the squaring of our actions in affairs in this kind with respect to the people we treat and the money we possess. Out of the $45,000,000 earned in wages by the group here, $25,000 is a small amount to give each year for charity. We take pride in showing to best advantage the number of prosperous men and women in our community. We take pride in calling attention to leaders who lead and to what our organizations can do. Now is the time, therefore, to demonstrate the truth and sincerity of these statements. Organizations, lodge heads boast, especially during political campaigns, what followings they have; now is the time to do so leading. Let every man and woman get behind the community fund and see that we take our place with purpose. In order that we may ask with consistency that we be given equal place in the community life. Give a bigger subscription this year to the fund. year to the land. The Carnegie Foundation has stirred up a hornet's nest in bringing to public consideration the commercialism of athletics in white colleges of the land. The athletic practice of the country, and one which is certain to eat deep into its vitals, is that us sportsmankle and cowardly attitude taken by Coach Chick Mehean of New York, when he met the University of Georgia, it consented to keep one of its best players out of the game because he is a colored man. Surely the fighting blood of young white manhood must boll when marrowless-boned leaders keep them from feeling that they can attack any man without color in athletics without damaging their racial integrity. Has white blood and white courage become so weak and flabby?

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, November 2, 1929 PHILLY PEN POINTS 40 School Boy Cops Protect Students "By "PEGGE" Mrs. Tyson Real Mother. "A mother without a peer in the city of Philadelphia," was the tribute paid Mrs. Celestine Potts. Tyson, late wife of James S. Tyson, Sr.; mother of six daughters and one son, and eldest daughter of Mrs. Alice Potts. The Rev. Coleman of Central Presbyterian Church had voiced the sentiment of an entire community. For not only was Mrs. Tyson, all-in-all to her own family, but she was also adored for her devoted service to all who came under her wing. She was sought by old and young for her sympathetic advice, and she had never failed them. Throughout the respective careers of her girls as students, Mrs. Tyson strode step by step, every inch of the way with them. It was as a senior at West Philadelphia High School; that the eldest daughter encountered an embarrassing situation. But there was her mother, with her canny judgement, and wise decision, ready with a solution. The faculty of that school, and its principal had never had to reckon with a checkmate in their attitude toward Negro pupils. And since it was an established fact that Washington, D.C., hotels absolutely refused a foregone conclusion that the "unrested element" would elect "to their free will" to pass up the trial of their first to the capital. They usually did, and most placidly! Not so with young Celestine, for her mother stood not behind her. of course, it would be absurd to suppose that Mrs. Tyson went down there and handed up-rooting of a deep-seated policy. She sagely used the only other alternative, that she met the class and teachers and together they carried out each day's program. This was by no means her last contact with the daughters. But the succeeding meetings were pleasanter. The chagrin, on the part of the teachers as having been balked, was that Mrs. Tyson had found this mother an unusually fair-minded and cooperative sort of person, who never destructive, for either side. And although her child is now a sophomore at West Philadelphia. High and has two years of last week Miss Cullen, the principal, came to Mrs. Tyson and asked if she would such as chaperone for the students making this The greatest of her victories was when after a two years' battle against the "closed door" she finally broke through, and Frances was admitted to Sargent, where she is taking a course in Physical Education. She could have more easily sent her elsewhere, but that would have meant defeat of a purpose. It would have been a sign of weakness, not characteristic of this staunch "mother of her race." It was not only for Frances, nor for any selfish satisfaction on her part. She did it with the hope that other mothers would follow suit. There are only five colored girls now at that institution, which is connected with Boston University. A beautiful character has folded a never-wearied pair of hands, "She is gone," we say. Surviving Mrs. Tyson are: a mother, Mrs. Alice Potts; a husband, James S. Tyson; a son, James, Jr.; six daughters Mrs. Celestine Tyson-Pulchon, school teacher; Helen Tyson, secretary; Frances, student at Sargent; Altadena, a meritorious normal school student; Louis, West Philadelphia High; and Dorothy, junior high.

Haynes, assistant state's attorney, who has been active in the effort to bring the slayers of Octavius Granady, attorney, to justice, again stepped in the limelight Wednesday evening when he arrived at the state's attorney's office just in time to witness the records of the case from being stolen by burglars. The attempted robbery followed closely in the wake of the shooting and killing of one of the state witnesses, Shelby McDougal, a few days prior. The killing of McDougal was considered as a significant effort to thwart the efforts of the state's attorney to convict the police officers who have been charged with the killing of Granady. The trial is set for November 7. Milton Gaston, who confessed that he killed McDougal, has maintained, however, that the slaying has not occurred, that he was done in a tilt of anger caused by an argument over the affections of a young woman.

(Afro-Bureau.) The mention made of Dr. Stephen Chauvet's book on Negro music, "La Musique Negro," has led several readers to ask for fuller details regarding it. The work seems to be a thoroughly comprehensive study of primitive Negro music, with 118 original airs with the music, and photographs of the different instruments and their uses. Dr. Chauvet also made phonograph records of the songs and music. This is the same sort of work of work by the Balkan native African of the Guggenheim Foundation, has come to Africa to do. Songs of Workers Among the songs are those of the rowers of great canoes in the Upper Congo and other regions as far as Lake Tanangyika; airs played marimba by the river of the great cavans; digitaries, others in honor of Europeans; tom-tom dances; airs for flutes; in honor of the virginity of a young marimba girl; songs, married girls and the saerir; the boa constrictor; tomentic dances; the play songs and dances of children; the music and songs of Negroes who have come under foreign influence, like that of the song-song elephant; and natural airs, as that of Madagascar. Many different tribes and people are represented, and the African words are also given with the music. One hundred and twenty-six pages are given to discussion and description. Dr. Chavet makes it clear that there is nothing special Negro music in primitive Negro music as jazz. "It is not necessary here to explain its origin, he says. "it is sufficient to say that it did not find a point of resemblance but a single point of resemblance, not with the real African music, but with what the European calls the 'tom-tom' music, which sounds like a rhythm which commands the movements of the dancers." He continues: "Certain people, in speaking of Negro music, declare colors, they like to hear the most piercing sounds, and even discordant ones, and that the musical instruments that they use are the loudest, noises such as drums,ongs, and bells. No Noise "To make the greatest possible noise without musical theme or harmonic order, to utter harsh, loud, and discordant cries, would be, according to such authors, the musical conception of Negroes, except for the forbides with which they are acquaint- The book is published by La Societe d'editions, Geographiques, Maritimes, et Coloniales, Boul.

Henceward, the up-to-date dancer must know the waltz; the six-eight one-step, which has been enthusiastically received in London, has been adapted to the with slow rhythm; the boston with slow, graceful and distinguished steps; and at last, the European tango.

DUDLEY, 25 The outlook for vaudeville and tabs playing coordeen houses is the worst in the history of coordeen theatres, and not only does the talking picture hurt the actor, but it has also killed the musician. Now I am oiter: asked if I think I should ask for a coordeen for mechanical vaudeville and canned music? Well, this is a hard question to answer, for there is not one producer in the whole world who knows what the public wants. The public are a few who make a good guess, and produce a hit now and then, but when this hit, takes the public, and plays to S.R.O. the author, and gives get cheaty and wretched after flop. Shows Flop Overnight The public does not know how much money is lost each year in theatrical productions, that only play one week or one night, and go back weeks of rehearsing. Chain Only Hope As 4 remarked three years ago, I repeat; the day for the small theatre, white or colored, is not gone, but going. I am now in North Belfast, on a month, looking the field over, and may organize a chain of picture houses, as the day for the independent theatre owner is nearing its end. The theatre in Atlanta, Georgia, the Standard Theatre in Philadelphia, and the Koppin Theatre in Detroit, were making more money than two-thirds of the best white theaters. But look at them. So one never knows what the amusement seeker wants, if one did, there would be packed theaters playing to turn-away business nights and there would be no audience, no producer losing money, nor any author writing a flop.

Washington, Wednesday, after one of them had stolen the key to the front door from a teacher while cleaning her room. Seven or eight of the girls planned the break, according to a story told to Special Officer J. C. Ellis, by one of the inmates after the runaway. She descrised how they had stolen the key to the door, outside of which they were never allowed to go unguarded and hid it under a step in the hall leading to the dining room. Following the mid-day meal the girls got out of the door, scattering in groups down the road and across the fields. Meanwhile the teachers were so surprised that they could not stop the runaways before they succeeded in making their get- Six of the group, Estelle Brown, 19; Marle Thomas, 19; Annie V.

He then gave him the maximum fine of $100 in such cases, but he would not do so this time because it would be a hardship upon the parents of the young white man. They were fined $10 and costs $10. In his lecture the Magistrate declared that there were two reasons for the position he was taking in the matter. One was that a white man should not degrade himself by having relations with a black wench. Another was that he should not white race. As to the colored race, he said, "they are already degraded."

ENROLLMENT IN SCHOOLS NEARS 1940 MARK 20,566 Colored Pupils Now in Baltimore Public Schools. Nine years ago, Dr. George D. Strayer, white, Columbia university expert, surveyed the Baltimore public schools and estimated that the enrollment in the colored schools (14,448 in 1920) would reach 17,199 in 1930 and 21,247 by 1940. Attendance reports for September, 1929, show 20,366 colored children in the schools, and Director Francis M. Wood estimates a school system of 2,020 by the end of the year. This means that the city school system is ten years ahead of the program outlined for it. The nine-year increase in elementary schools has been 3.175; in junior high schools, it has been 1.790; in senior high schools (grades ten to twelve) 737, in vocational, e. 221. The above figures indicate a nine-year increase of 134 per cent in the senior high school, and a 131 per cent increase in the junior high school. Teachers Increase During the last ten years the number of teachers in the schools has about doubled. In 1918 there were 317 teachers. By 1923 this number had increased to 443. In February 1924 there were 453 teachers. To this should be added five administrative teachers, including supervisors, and a director of schools. Largest School The largest elementary school in the system in School No. 112, at Laurens and Calhoun streets, with an enrollment of 1,629. The largest junior high is School No. 130, McCullough and Lafayette, with an enrollment of 1,629. At present there are part time classes in two schools with seventh grade students, the accompanying table shows how the number of pupils has increased in grades seven to twelve since 1921. It shows that the number of pupils has doubled in grades eight and tenth. It also shows that between the seventh grade and the twelfth grade, three-fourths of the children drop out of school.

The complete straightening out of a tax sale of the Handy Memorial church, was announced at the Monday meeting of the A.M.E. Preachers meeting. In 1923, the property, listed on the tax books as Christ Church, was advertised for sale for non-payment of taxes. Iresponsible parties, according to Bishop Gaines, received the notices, and the property was sold to the court recently and had the sale set aside. The Rev. C. H. Banks, was at that time pastor of the church. Bishop in Kentucky In commenting on an recent trip to Franklin, K. B. Bishop A. L. Gaines commended the stand taken by the governor of that state on "equal opportunity." He also attended home-coming services on April 1, Yount. He will leave shortly to open conferences in North Carolina. Kittrall College The installation of President D. K. Cherry and the recent dedication of the new library at Kittrell College brought to that institution the gathering of educators ever gathered in the state, the bishop said. Two thousand dollars came from various sources: Metropolitan A.M. Church of Washington; Walt Disney; Baltimore churches did not send in their full quote, said Bishop Gaines, but declared that this was not because they had just come out of a drive for their old folks' home. Numbers Scored No further discussion "numbers" came out on Monday meeting. The previous Monday, the question came to the attention of the meeting when Professor George B. H. while in a grand jury session children had been brought into that body implicated in "numbers." The question W. H. Manoko, in commenting on the statement, declared that "numbers" playing had invaded not only the homes but the church. "Over in Washington recently, he said, 'an official of one of churches played the numbers and won the votes of ministers in playing.' he said. Next Monday will be field day at the preachers' meeting.

She married maternity on Maum Vina and old Drayton, who had to be humored like a child white he was kept happy by her mother. But the physical labors, at any rate, had not been without compensation. Her muscles were half-directed but longer a half-directed machine. Joly came, and in its second week a jelly of record-breaking heat. Baxter's pit was out in the shade all day.

They were paid by the output they were not pushed by the foreman, and the men were taking it at half speed; the cars would sprawl for a few moments in the strip of shade. But Baxter could not afford to lag. The rain had not stopped the haze; later it climbed above it, but the moisture had flowed shugshug along the earth and settled in the sand. Come the sun struck directly down into the humid excavations, making each a veritable Turkish bath. Water, with its self-respect would allow and wang along steadily, lifting ten pounds of rock with every moist of old Davenport to borrow to the cars. When knocking-off time came she was conscious of physical exhaustion the first time since she had got her hair in a bun. Church night, lodge meeting, and 'been fear' all rolled into one. What might it was going to be? She was beginning to show excitement, cutting pigeon wings and shuffling. South organs are coming from pockets and overcrowds in the caverns and serpent nests. For two months the white men who worked at the plant had been spending rudimentary miles away where there was a fever in hot weather.

Bluton appeared with a buggy load of half-pint dispensary flasks which he had brought from town and which he rescued at dusk and every hour of last week and that he camped went into his pocket. The Negroes hated to patronise him — the one who didn't one of them thought of going for it? — but they never did—and Bluton always remembered and had Bluton go in his embyt buggy and drove off with the money, telling them frankly that, if he came back later, he wasn't going to risk a pocketful of change in the shoulders, and there neath the open Bluton In the air of celebration, with the spirits of every one about her vaulting, Baxter felt by contrast tired and depressed. She dawdled over to Blon-ton's rig. What a scramble there was for flags! She hadn't touched a drop since she came to the camp. Perhaps just a half pint might pick her up. She pulled the bandana out of her bosom and mashed a maltoy fifty cents. The hot liquor was strong to her throat. It did not take long to saturate the system, like beer or wine. There was a great scramble for the last few bottles. Suddenly, as though animated by some overpowering force outside of herself, Baxter brushed the squabbling men aside, seized the last flask, and, flinging her bandana out, emptied it on the floor of the vehicle. Then every one laughed as she sh�ic the fine flask, now empt. But a distance yellow pine. Near by half a dozen young bucks were skylarking, tussling with each other. Slightly proportioned young black threw a larger one for a solid fall and turned to the onlookers with a shout of boastful laughter. Baxter sauntered amiably toward him, took him by the collar, snatched him suddenly across her knee and administered a resounding spanking name. She was wrought with the tightest. She probably offered her easy success in the degree to the surprise of her attack, but it delighted the other men, who held their sides for laughter. She felt her spirits soar. Life was glowing anew as she had grown older, and were the lonesome blues, sensually hailed from a pocke in his alpaca vest, had come as a Christmas gift. Time for meeting. The lodge members all were their regalia—bread, flat bread, and a large piece of crossing their breasts from shoulder to hip. The keeper of the great key arrived and elbowed her in the door of the building that served as both church and lodge room. Suspended about her neck on a silken rope was a woman in a small rusty key to her ride. Then with this she opened the ten-cent padlock that held the two panels of the sagging portal together. She placed and placed props against them, and the crowd urged into the steaming room and seated themselves noisily on the unstable preacher to await the coming of the preacher. The Rev. Quintus Whaley let his large and cherished body through the church, and he turned his steps toward the church. He had a broad, sensual mouth and a pair of sharp, sharp teeth, avidly under heavy eyelids. As he hwaked ponderously through the twilight the church's light kept his penchant belly swinging, without a certain massive dignity, from side to side, and with the same grit, from the mining com- SYNOPSIS or the preacher. company, and the watch, which he pre-reminder of the fact that the white folks not only gave him his bread but buttered it as well.

One of the more intelligent and daring men in the company sent home such good reports that much unrest resulted. A land with big wages—and no Proe Baggart, the man had died of pneumonia during a brilliant inspiration, they had telegraphed instructions to have the company send him to bench, then the full churn lifted and beat against the thin chipped board. A the body cremated before shipping. But it was the Reverend Quintus whose magnificent rolling rhythms had pointed to the hand of God in the fate that had befallen their brother. And it was he who had exhibited to the awed Negroes the ashes that alone remained of the daring adventurer. He entered the church, smiling and bowing from right to left. The sisters greeted him effusively, craning forward to warm themselves in the light of his smiles. But the men sat unmoved and, for the most part, silent. The reading desk was quite high, reaching to the preacher's shoulders, and there was a shelf beneath the open Bible to which the Reverend, with remarkable dexterity for so heavy a man, now transferred a pint flask from beneath his coat. A shrill leading soprano flung the first clear notes of a spiritual into the close silence. A tenor rang in walls in recurrent waves of melancholy beauty. The Reverend Quintus dropped to his knees behind the high reading desk and, safe from view, drew the cord from his bottle and took a long preliminary pull. He was not always so lucky. To-night he would speak with the tongue, not of men, but of anels. Baxter had not entered the building with the crowd. Her hirth spirits had been tended to be alarms. Maum Vina had watched,守护着 her a little anxiously but she sent the old woman. She was out of evening was creeping up out of the swamp, sending low, flat tiers of mist over the basin, the water in the unders the oak trees, swimming out over the marsh to blue the lochs. On the last night he was in the east, a gleam like phosphorus under dark water commenced to fringe the skyline, and the watcher knew that the lights were going on in the city. Mamba would be putting Lissa to bed. Of late the pain of missing had become almost more than the mother could bear. She almost never saw the girl now. Mamba could only leave the Atkinsons' on Sunday morning while the children were at Sunday school and church; and that was Lissa's opportunity to sing in the choir and meet the well-to-come members of her race. Mamba had pointed this out, and it had been accepted with that blind obedience that made Baxter still seem so much of a child. But the mother's spirit was the prisoner of a past from which it would not free itself because the present offered it no harbourage. And she could no longer visualize Lissa clearly—the child of even a few months ago was becoming confused with an imagined portrait of the civil into which she was growing. She dashed a hand across her eyes; she looked at her skin the dark skin that she was holding before her face in the gloom. She forced a laugh, she shouted. She delightedly her face, then she danced half emitted her second flash. Half emitted it, then she sank. She memory and the bickerness and the pain were ebbing. She let her memory and back into the memory of longing she experienced a warm sense of immediacy—an illusion of realness. She touched the touch of soft skin against the touch of soft skin against her hands. The image was quite clear, the change was clear, the child that had been hers was hers to keep now, aways, like a happy now with her head bowed upon her lifted knees. Over the eastern mantle she looked at the risk of copper, pulsed free of the horizon, rounded out to a perfect sphere and brightened to confidence up toward the zenith. --- The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, November 2, 1929 * Maum Vina left the church building and came to hunt for Baxter. She was relieved to see her sitting so still. Touching her on the shoulder she said, "I was a new peace in the big face with its features of a child that Baxter rails with its light down on the cabins and church, arranging the little settlement rigidly in a cubist style of planes and angles.

The Reverend Quintus was sending his mellifluous syllables against the walls in a call for confession and repentance when a violent and misdirected gesture de- lodged his nearly emptied flask from its smug retreat and sent it clattering, naked and blatant, down on the floor, beneath fifty pairs of astonished eyes. There was a moment of silence; then a crushing nor of laughter from the congregation. That was dangerous. The cleft could endur an�ing but ridicule. He leaned forward over the desk, and his tremendous voice rose over the babblement among the verches. In his extremity he relapsed into the thick Gullan dialect that he seldom employed in the pulpit. "Onnah heah me condenn de hypercritic—enty? Onnah heah me say confess—enty? If onnah confess and repent when enmah ain't tots no sin den onnah is hypercite.

He paused for breath, and there was an uneasy sleeping on the table, as was quick to follow his advantage. "Remember what do I have?

The committee had the refreshments, bounce thinned economically, cake from the commissary, cherry song from the cross, and seized the bodies of the congeneration, and the cross applauded. They missed the plates to a few, not the sheens would have none of them. Benches on the floor cleared for a shout. Already play feet were slapping the loose boards of the floor. The spiritual "Oh,'memin' star is in de west," Honour de Lamb, in my breast. Honour de Lamb, in my breast. Honour de Lamb, in my breast. Now the shouters would give themselves utterly to a rhythm raywed, and bent; here two facing each other with a more concerted interplay. But always the feet hit the same time, rattling and rattling the whole building. "Oh, way down yonder in de Harbes" Fiel—Honour de Lamb, honour de Lamb. Angel workin' on de cha'let wheel. Honour de Lamb, honour de Lamb! One of the larger groups started to circle, and a ring shout was under way. The refreshment committees knew that this could last until morning. They put their plates aside to be eaten by those who would drop out later from exhaustion. Shrill and piercing above the more measured rhythm of the spiritual with its worship of the new Christ cut the voice of a soprano in the Gillah shouting rhythm: "Simmi, yubba leaba, simmi yuh, Ronda bodha simmi yuh...

They had a sort of understanding now. He did not ask much of her—except not to go around openly with Bicton. She was not to share him before everybody. Now he looked up from his shouting and saw them in the door. Dolly was good-looking, the best looking women in the room. Her fell figure was pressed� to the man to whose arm she clung. Gilly had been drinking, and the beast that he was looked unguarded out from his face. The cunning, vitality, hypocrisy—there they were. His eyes were fixed on Ned, gloating with insolent amusement. The man and women left the doorway and saunted into the room. Then, with the rhythm of the shouters, who were so rapid that they were dazed, rushing it up to a swift dramatic climax. tragedy was upon them.

As was said, he was a Medic. There has been no more illustrious family in history than the Medic. Among its of Duke Alexander members were great patrons of art, letters, and learning, noted statesmen and diplomats, three popes and three kings of France. One of the most noted of the Medici was Lorenzo the Magnificent, patron of Michael Angelo, and grand-uncle of Alexander. The family ruled the rich and powerful province of Tuscany and made Florence the art capital of the world! Ancestry of Alexander To quote some authorities on the ancestry of Alexander. Bronzino's portrait of Alexander in Florence seen by this writer, shows him with woolly hair, thick lips and unruly teeth. He is the prominent Medici nose. Gino Coppino in his story of Florence, says: ence, says: "His mother was a Negro slave and he had the dark skin, thick lips, and curly hair of a Negro." Cotterill ('Italy from Dante to Tasso') says: "The institution of Pope Clement VII with Charles V after the sack of Rome, 1262, and Florence. Thereupon, Charles imposed on this city as its reges, released Alexander the Moor, who married a daughter of the Emperor and married the title of the Duke Ferdinand." "Alexander was a dark-skinned boy of about thirteen years with the thick lips and woolly hair of a Negro... His father was almost indubitably Pope Clement." G. F. Young ("The Medici") says, "Alexander, then about thirteen years who now for the first time, appears in Florence, and those woolly hair and Negro like the appearance had already caused him to be called the Moor. This boy's origin was a secret. Born during the time the family was in exile he was in reality the son of Clement himself, but the latter had hidden and kept the boy out of sight as long as he could." He adds: "There is no doubt of this, though none cared at the time to contradict the Pope's assertion that Alexander was the son of Lorenzo (Duke of Ubino) and as such, he is mentioned in history; historians contenting themselves with saying that he was reputed to be so but was more probably Clement's son." He says further that this fact was generally known in the family and that the historian, Ammirato, states that afterwards when Clement, Ind Alexander were born dead, posited in Alexander's successor's told him positively that Alexander was Clem Alexander made his appearance on the scene during a critical persecution by Alexander's supposed father, Lorenzo II (of the Medici) had died and the rulership术术 was over. For reasons that need not be discussed here, dissensions arose between the Pope and the Florentine people over religious mat- Legitimacy Common At the time, Alexander and another医 medic named Ippolito the elder named Catherine (later the famous Catherine de medici) were living in the医 medical palace. They, with the help of a priest, the elder branch of the family. And, by the way, all except Catherine, were illegitimate. When born out of wiedock mattered in those days. The important thing was the carrying on of the family. The highest families like the Strozie, were carried on in this way. Very often the heads of great families were illegitimate children than with their lawful ones. Finally the quarrel between the Pope and the Florentines got worse. The Pope, and Cardinal de Cortina, who was in charge of the three children, was forced to flee with the people. The people, however, succeeded in Catherine and Cardinal de Cortina as a hostage. The Pope's family, the Medic, had of course sided with him. The pope helped him. He helped with the Emperor Charles V, the Napoleon of his day. Charles was ruler of the Netherlands, also, and was a friend of Austria, Germany and other territory. Charles, marching against the Pope, had forced him to flee from the country, from the family driven from the country that it had ruled for more Pope Ruled Hearts Accordingly the Pope made peace with him and promised the Emperor that he would be only a moral one, but it was none the less powerful, for men were much more dominated by the church than the Emperor commanded the arms of men, the Pope ruled in their hearts, and the Emperor who had forbidden Henry VIII of England to divorce his wife, Katherine, a step that finally led to his death. The Catholic church. Clement was a master diplomat and he manipulated the politics of England. He was the Emperor to cut his sims. An article of the agreement between Pope and Emperor was the Pope's family to power in Florence. To bind the bargain, a match was arranged between the Pope and Margaret, and Alexander. Margaret was then only nine, and Alexander twenty. Margaret's next step was to send an army commanded by Philip, Prince of Orange, to capture Florence. For nearly a century, he finally forced to surrender. They were made to pay a large sum and to submit to the government. They were then Among the defenders had been Mimi Macdonald, the fortifications and organize the defense. With his allies, Florence had been a republic with one of the Medici as its perpetual president, with the title of king made it was made into what was in reality a kingdom, with Alexander the Moor as its ruler, and the contingents were to succeed after him. Negro Duke Reigns The young Negro Duke began his reign well. Cecchereghi, Italian his father, credited him with wif and wisdom a fine sense of justice and judgments that would have done credit to a Solomon. He restored to the Florentines most of their former liberties, but, as may be expected, he also proud people were not content. Besides, there were still bitter memoirers into this strange and powerful fourth character. Mention has already been made of him: Cardinal Ippolito de Medicl. he and not Alexander, should have been made head or the family. He was a year older and legitimate, his mother was of noble birth, while that of Alexander was a slave: The question of color or color in Europe at that time. Ippolito became the bitter foe of Alexander the leader of a faction against him. Varchi, Italian historian, says that Pope Clement had decided that Alexander was to be made heir to the land. Pope Clement had decided that Alexander was to be made heir to the land. Pope Clement had decided that being older and a nearer relative of the Pope and better endowed with more grace, he and his wife and so brilliant a marriage should be his; either not knowing, or knowing more, that Alexander was the son of Clement* "and made in pioleto a cardinal, but pioleto was so discontented that he disclaimed the honor, preferring Hungarian dress to the "red A Quarrel An interesting light is thrown on the quarrel between Ippolito and Duke Writing at the university, Sordari says: "The Duke Alexander shows that he has a good sense of responsibility, accommodate himself better to the nature and will of the Pope than the Cardinal Ippolito de Duke, and makes it evident to me that he loves the Duke more than the Cardinal, and expects me to spend many times in conversation with me he has told me that he intends to make the Duke head of the church, and has given some little time to study, so that in comparison with the restless nature but perhaps it is saddened as ignorant. He is indeed of vivacious, one might almost say, of a restless nature but perhaps it is so." He is very envious of the Duke because it seems to him that the opposing Duke at the head of the government of Florence. He thinks himself of a better social class than the Duke, the slave. The quarrel between the two gives great displeasure to His Holiness Pope John Paul II for disturbing his plans." This question of the respective characters and merits of Ippolito and of Ippolito is still a subject of bitter dispute among historians. By and again, it is just and able young man; but by other writers, primarily English, he is held to be a primary author of the deadliest epochs of Roman villainy. In an attempt to settle a phase of the Italian government ordered Alexander's tomb be opened in 1875—more than three hundred years after his death, Ippolito of Ippolito: "Ippolito lacked that distinguished courtesy for which his ancestors had once been famous. He was one of the most obsequious sort of greetings, and in general took, upon him, the most obvious sort of look, for the Queen were a very proud and keen-witted people; even those of the clergy, clung very hard to the last shows of it, and they deeply resented their tactlessness, and his bad manners." By other historians, however, Ippolito is credited with being just the The important thing, however, is that Ipoitoa wanted the throne of the island, and found many allies in some of the noble Florentines who objected to Alexander for a downdress on them, and second because his mother was a slave and even then alive. Cardinal Alexander, and finally the cardinal was forced to flee to Rome where his home became the refuge for all who fled from the island. Attempts at Murder Several attempts were made on Duke Alexander's life and he took steps to protect himself, which led on "Contained on page twelve." Mamba's Daughters (Continued from page eleven) light with her bare hands was as effectual as a tour. He was deeply slashed, in both arms as he had shielded his face with them, and there was that rash across the forehead. After the uproar in the room, its poisoned atmosphere now hung in a dead and ominous quiet. The silent watchers at the window waited, their eyes following Baxter's every movement. No arteries had been cut, but the veins had poured out the man's life until he was in desperate straits. The ghastly visage thrown up toward the light showed that something must be done immediately. Baxter bound the wounds, staunching the bleeding. Then she stood up and met the eyes that were "We go to get to um town quick," she said. "If we can can pull him up, we can pull him up." Not a body moved. They kept on, their staring at her innically. She faced them desperately. Oh, she was so scared that who always made plans; pushed things through. She turned back on her umbrella to form. She met old Drayton's eyes peering in a window, and in a second she had him by "Listen!" she shot into his face. "You go 'an break in de commissary stable an hour.' Ah! it fix it wid Mr. Saint. The old man hesitated. If d'atwam aren't in the fhe minute I n't bother goin' daint an dier out wd 'c' On.

"Dat'ain no use, Oey nain' le'nurh but city niggers free to de hospital, Country nigger goes to way in ax- "Dat all right." Baxter answered. "Gilly always got mots. Mots and went through Bluton's pockets. Not a penny. Then they all remembered at once. They remembered of every cent on the whisky sale and had carried the money away to hide. The irony of the situation struck a groove on humour and wit. "Serve um right," someone called "Can't trust we—now he can dead. Already we just a low white-forks mellow." The bit woman glared at them. Already she did passel off yellow-liver niggers—"He can't snoo' on死. Dause Al's gown see um him up. Baver heard it stoooped.

No answer, and the vehicle "stood on under the live oaks with the horse moving soundlessly between the deed sand ruts and the passenger's immortality under the tarpaulin." Baxter brought all of her faculties to bear on the problem of cetum into him the Mamba here, now—would know what to do. Then, slowly under the urge of necessity, brain began to work. What I found near the hospital—living unconscious in the street—would know that he had been friends who had been found so by the police and carried to the hospital. Where were cared for, were they in the city or the police were few in the quiet part of the town. Perhaps she could slip through the darkened streets and驶出 Bluton on one of The kid had covered several miles before she finally decided to risk before she had been unconscious, consideration had entered her mind. Now she was awake of a menacing shadow—a prescience that all was not right. It was a physical blow—what if she were caught? Two years later. Immediately the horror or elaborated lice? in her hair? the bumps on Mamba萨? Lissal! All the girl's girlfriend—her music—and her mother the fall! She was scared. Instantly it loomed inappurmutable before her. But here was Bluton—she could not let him die now. Swat burst out of her face, cold and clammy in the night. With the odd instinct of dumb animals, the horse had seen the middle of the road. She mowed her streaming face. Then, with a denial, she pulled her pals' back with the skew lines. She had to gamble on her luck. Maybe it had chance. Anyway, she had to see it. She was on the main road now, and the poles was cool. She tugged at thread of the bridge, white under the moonlight, and the red light at the draw bridge. Then came a short drive over the fats, with the marsh talking to her in its insistence. She planked now, the planking now, the loos timbers making a thunder of sound in her comprehensive ears as the car drew. The draw was closed. That made it first. She must go on ahead. Had it sometimes done, fate would have turned her back. A hitch tide row under the bridge, sweeping flood. Overhead the luminous disk—no longer brass, but a cold platinum—was pulled all of the lesser stars. The vehicle with its silent passenger and moved toward the dark clusters buildings of the city as though it adorned the light tight environment stage. The toll office was closed for the night, but Baxter's approach had been healed by the noise of the vehicle, and as she left the bridge she saw the night watchman waiting. He was a very old, bent man, and he stood swimming his stick and peering up in surprise. "Where you goin' this hour of the night?" he called ouerulously, with the petitness of one who has just been awakened. Then Baxter remembered that she had no money to pay toll. "Just take some truck to town," she said home. "I'll say comin' back when de office youen." But the persistent old creature would not let it go at that. She had stopped the wagon, and he now came up and weered over the side. He was standing there, undecided whether to do Baxter's mind was in part. Should she risk bolting for it with the old horse and heavy wagon? They were both silent, trying to make up their minds. Buton became the deciding factor. There was a movement beneath the canvas and a low, agorized groan. With an instinctive "flex action, Baxter" foot shot out and caught the horse full on the rump. An astonished spring jerked the vehicle clear of the watchman. Then the animal gathered himself together and set off with the vehicle clattering and jouncing over the co Public Sentiment immed, and so, as soon as the driver collected her wits, she swept with the weight of her body with the relief that they were plunged into the immediate peace of an unpaved street. She pulled the animal down to a walk and listened to her heartbeat. Her threat, there was no sound of pursuit. Evidently the watchman had gone back to his nap and the policeman was in his heat. She waited a moment under a shade tree to cool the trembling animal and to gather courage for the plunge. She waited a moment of relentless moonlight. Confidence that her luck had changed be come to her. She had won the first break, and the quiet now must be with it. She moved out of the shadow driving slowly and soundlessly in the soft, deeply rutted earth. Now her whole being seemed concentrated in her sense of hearing. In the remote residential section, through which she was passing the stillness was so absolute that she even heard faint snoring in one of the houses. Then, with a sudden intrusion of humour into tragedy, came a fretful female voice waking the offender and telling him to lie on his side. Then came footsteps on the pavement of a side street, indolent, heavy, maddening in their deliberation. Saxter pulled the wagon under the wide-flung branch of a tree and waited. Around the corner the half block away came a policeman. He was winding his club by its thong, and his head was thrown back while he gazed into the wonder of the night. Without looking down, he pursued "is leisurely way down the street" as where Baxter was waiting. She saw his broad back receding ahead of her and knew that for the second time luck had been with her. Now she had only to wait until he was out of earshot, then follow, discharge her passenger near the hospital, and the officer would find him on his next round. Presently she was under way again and covered the three blocks to her destination without adventure. She pulled the wagon into the shadow of a palmetto tree, and it was answering in its harsh gutturals, so different from the voices of other women, but she conquered her qualms. She climbed down and removed the canvas from Bluton's form. Then she climbed down and the eyes were on her upon her. "Oh diz yo! Baxter he said in a dark hell he fell in a about, anwhov? Then he is moved, became aware of his wounds, and grasped him 'dov damn' mouth," she answered fiercely; thenathered him and placed him on the pavement. Bending down, she spoke almost savagely into his face. "Fuh dead?" "Puwd Gavd's sake, no! You wouldn't." She cut him off. "Berry well, den Listen! Keep yo' eye an' yo' mout she. Not tell nobody who yo' who or straight' yo' come from. Got dat straight!" He nodded. Then she saw that the exertion had caused him to faint. She drove the rite down a side street tied the horse beneath the tree. She had put long to wait. The deliberate stew were coming back. She saw the fire black, solid bulk in the light light. Now he was fairly on the sunshine form of the sunrise. "Who will I kill good damned!" He stopped, made a stiff examination then rose quickly, trotted to a seat. Scarcely had he not back to the inert form before the wagon came. Two alert fleuces sauté out. Then with a single chink of the bell, the vehicle lunged away toward the hospital. Her slipped back around the corner of the fence that had been shielding her and returned to the wagon. There, suddenly in the hall she had lost. The bridge was the only way back and the watchman would be waiting to disguise her great body that always got her into trouble. She was caught in a trawl and was disguised as patroling her initiative. Mambal Sini must get to her and ask her what he was doing. But the whisky had gone from her blood: the maternal impulse that had driven her blindly into the younger, afraid, afraid. a little whimming. (Continued from page eleven) and home. I began reading as soon as I had changed clothing, so I went to the library to address some graduation invitations. Taking the list of names I took a seat in my work. Helen was placing them in the envelopes, and I questioned. "Is it particularly a particular you want for graduation?" Helen in her slang said I "should say, I want a trip to California, and I want to make the trip, but here is the big boy to give it to me." She picked one of the envelopes and asked, "Of course, I couldn't see the name; moreover I wasn't interested, except to wonder at a school girl expecting a thousand dollars." June was happily nearing her. I was counting the days for I had only one week left. I was too occupied with my own affairs to keep tab on Helen I knew the family was making quite a fuss. She didn't mention the check, but once during commencement exercises and that class night. She didn't mention the check, but once during commencement exercises and that class night. She was leaving for California in a few days. I was surprised, "What a trip," she said. I hope you will take the trip. I know you will: for California, they say, is very pretty." I will make it a cooring trip. In a few days Lehen left for the "Golden" West. The family thought nothing further could happen in the Oceans family. I then had a room to myself to display my trousseau. and sent my time to the office. I went to the event of my life—my wedding. . . was on my way to the office for the last time when I met the wife. I gave her a big divorce scandal. "I bounce, a paper, the colored weekly. I first read the man's name and then the wife's. I gave her a paper, I read my own name, at first I knew it couldn't be mine, but there was a woman in the office and almost ran to the office. Behind the desk sat Dan reading the story. I snatched it from his face and I saw him not dressed. You can don't believe that do you!" His smile sobered me as he spoke, "course I don't Marry, but how people explain? What will people say? "I don't care," said I. "I can't understand how my name happened to be there." "I know you don't," said Dan, ca- ♠ sound escaped her. Then she heard a human voice, casually conversational, expressing a smile and a big up in town". She looked down and knew the man more than once in the room on East Bay, and he had been the officer arrested on that last fateful night. She was speeches, sitting massively above him, sobbing treeline. Down on the pavement the Celtic attic in the big square body was beginning. "So it's you that just dumped the high yeller on Calhoun street?" she sighed. "I almost forgot how to take can to pieces! Reckon you better drive back there to the box while I call a special v "I swear to Gawc, chief, I am cut, dat, nigger up. Listen 'fore you call, fuh 'awd 'sake! an' lemme feel yo' how 'a!!" He led the horse out into the light where he could see the woman plainly and told her to go ahead. When she had finished her story he stood silent a moment: Then he said, "You know, Big Un, it's funny, but I don't believe you're lying. I think you're just about that damned a fool." Then he asked, "This the first time you been in town?" "Yes, Boss. I swear to Gawd." He fairly snapped his answer at her: "Well, get out of it, damn quick! An' I ain't seen no woman nor wagon since suppertime. I don't care what the hell anybody says." He turned and walked oriskily away. In a moment he had rounded the nearest corner, and his footfalls were fading into silence. Hagar must get to Mamba now. That was the only thing to do. Her own mind had stopped working. She had to cross the city in a diagonal direction, and it was more instinct than conscious judgment that selected the deserted oways and alleys for her passage. But luck was with her-luck and a sharp retrenchment in the police department with a resultant cut in personnel—and she traversed the distance without being again in jeopardy. Finally, just before day, she drove the wagon into the court in East Bay Street. She routed out a startled friend and sent her to wake and fetch Mamba, who was sitting in the backyard, knows that she has some wrong and will be punished. An hour later the old woman came were complete. The wagon had been washed down until it was scarcely visible in the court, arrangements were complete. The wagon had been engaged at an honorarium of two dollars to drive it over and demand a vehicle; a half-grown boy had been engaged at an honorarium of three dollars to row Baxter around the city and demand the wagon be within a mile wide distance of the mines. Mamba peered from the gateway and scanned the city, the wagon being within a mile wide distance of the mines. Its sir airt with that indefinable thrill of expectancy which is the precursor of down. The wagon was moving at the training of a freight engine. Growing bitterly over the injustice of a fate that had imposed such a quantity of the colony across the street and to the pier head. At the foot of a ladder a boat could be dissemined, its roower walling with Silently Baxter descended and took her seat. In the moment of departure, the old face, hanging above her against the thinning night softened and the deep-limbed voice said gently, "Good-bye, Daughter. Full of Gawd's sake take a'ob vossel an keen out ob trouble." The oars dipped, and Baxter was once again out of the city. Behind her the night seemed to come suddenly down into the narrow streets and beneath the dock. Far out beyond Fort Sumter a new day lifted, washed and shining, from the Atlantic. The oarsman piled steadily ahead. Above the crouching woman and looming fabulously into the morning skies, hung the great Batter vans lions, their high-flue columns and facades showing rose and saffron in the vourn day. To her left the "mosquito fleet" was putting to sea for its day at the fishing banks, sailing straight into the eve of the rising sun, and, under Baxter's azzled gaze, seeming to founder and vanish eastward in a flood of intolerable glory. Close by her now, where she could touch them with her hand, small, plancert waves sprang up and caught the light. She looked for a long moment, lifted out of herself by the splendour; then her large bullet head fell forward on her crossed arms. "Sweet Jesus," she muttered, "in a word like dls, why Yo!" got to make me such a damn' fool." The carmanul ulled dogedly a head toward the distant line of trees TEND OF INSTALLMENT I END OF INSTALLMENT V ressing me. " funny things happen when you have a friend like Helen." At home I was asked out of the house by Mrs. Owens accusing me of disgirting her daughters. I was too tired to end my sentence. " I too tired, but couldn't buy all those things you gave Helen with the salary you make." simply let her rave. I couldn't find words. My on-agreement, that he believed in me, and again I started my ride for home but it was nothing like happy. I was numb to it. I had no feeling until I reached home. I told mother everything I had to tell her. I was numb fast. Everyone was whispering, but I ceased to hear—forgot the world and all its evil occupants. And I mother matter to me. The trial, was an episode in my life, and all that acquainted me with the world. Although it meant disgrace to me, I wasn't afraid for I knew it was inimitable. I read, I only smiled, as I saw my name: written across it, and at the bottom it was endowed by Helen in my name. There was the graduation invitation addressed in my handwritten letter, felt to the floor from the invitation. Why didn't I tell the truth some of you will say, I couldn't find words and would they have believed me? I knew not with Mrs. Owens' evidence so I sat with my eyes on Dan's distressed face as the attorney painted me a fispper, a gold dieer, and there before me sat the guilty husband, a man I had never before seen any place. A pitiful little wife seeking freedom from the large bully was carefully noting me. Again I listened to Mrs. Owens be-rate my character telling of the nice thines I received from men and gave her daughter I laughed hysterically at her convictions. I saw Dan move in his seat, knew he wanted me to say something but my tongue refused to utter the words that weighed on my mind. What chance would I have among so many with so much against me? I only repeated a silent prayer. Dan wanted me to marry him but I refused. "I can't Dan," I pleaded, "I must wait for time to clear my name. It can't be long, but it's been wonderful to have you understand and stay by me. So Dan, for the love that is ours make one more sacrifice. Public sentiment must not come between you and me.

Everyone whispered the court scandal but with my head high and mother's confidence in me I went to church and consoled myself with thoughts of faithful Dan. His letters came often sweet and long. When he visited me, in my own back yard we found pleasure away from gossip. Later in the Fall Helen came home from California. Dan wrote me that she was again going a reckless pace. He kept up with her every move. During the holidays her pleasure reached its climax. On a reckless drive from a nearby city she was killed with Dave Sutton, and carried with her to her grave all her folly. Fortunately her last story cleared my name. I couldn't believe it when again saw my name in print and a reporter came for my story. Later I discovered Dan had sent him. I found words and told him the story. I am now writing. The bells were ringing, the whistles blew, and the preacher pronounced Dan and me man and wife, as the clock ticked off the minutes that changed the old year to new. THE END.

AC1 3502 The Nation's Biggest All Negro Week The Black Genius Who Ruled a European State (Continued from page eleven) to greater dissension. He disarmed both friend and foe, garrisoned the town and built a fortress to dominate, city, which still stands among the plotters he exiled and stripped of their wealth. Ippolito now decided to make a direct appeal to the Emperor and went to meet him in North Africa to attack the noted pirate Barbarossa. But the Cardinal never reached the Emperor, for he died on the way, poisoned it. The charge may be true, for the Medic, like other rulers of the time, did not hesitate in thus removing enemies. Even Lorenzo the Magnificent had been guilty of assassination. Soon after this incident, Pope Clement died, and the lack of his guidance and aid caused Alexander's troubles to multiply. To pacify his enemies, he now gave great fetes in imitation of the old Roman emperors, but the result was only to give him a reputation as a libertine—a reputation which was in a measure, true. It was a dissolute age, but the hatred against Alexander rendered into glaring faults, acts that would have been condoned and even applauded in others. When his mother Anne died, quite naturally it seems, he was accused by some of starving her to death in order to conceal his lowly origin. Falling to get rid of him in other ways, the enemies of Alexander now went to meet the Emperor on his way home from North Africa, to beg his removal, but Alexander, summoned before the Emperor, defended himself so ably that instead of being deposed he rose higher than ever in the imperial favor. Charles not only promised him firmer support, but to the discomfiture of Alexander's enemies, the Emperor agreed to the marriage with his daughter—a marriage, which it will be recalled had been agreed on while Pope Clement was living. On June 19, 1538, the wedding was celebrated in the Medici Palace with great pomp in the presence of the Emperor and the kings and queens of many European countries. This marriage perhaps more than any other thing, throws the true Emperor was a just and much beloved man. Later he voluntarily renounced the power of solitary meditation and Christian devotion. It is logical to believe that such a man would have been a great benefactor, even as Alexander had been painted by his enemies, most of all, since Clement was no longer a monarch, even on the Florentine throne, Alexander did his best to win over his enemies but they were untroubleable—never forgive him his unbirth. Enters the villain: Leonhard, the elder branch was illegitimate branch of the Medici family. He reasoned that since Alexander, last of the elder branch was illegitimate, he was the younger branch was the right Duke. This idea, however, he nursed in secret, visiting the Vatican he deliberately knocked the heads off of some precious statues, whereupon Pope Clement was then himself hanged it he remained in Rome.

MORGAN, DOUGLASS BEATEN Lincoln, Using Air, Soars to Victory Lions Avenge Last Year's Dev feat with 19-7 Victory Over Morgan. LEWIS NEW STAR Pinky Clarke and Mates are Stopped by Heavier Foes. HW BILL GIBSON With their pet plays smeared on almost every occasion, and lacking the fighting spirit that has characterized their games this season, the Morgan bears proved a rather docile Joe for the Lincoln Lions, who scratched out a 19-7 victory, here Saturday. It was too much Lincoln for the Lions, but they could not get their machine hitting on all cylinders. Lincoln seemed to know every play that Morgan had, breaking up the Bears' forward pass attack at will, and smothering her line and runs with unyielding consistency. Score 1: Five Minutes Hardly five minutes had passed after the opening kickoff when the Lincoln machine, with all cogs meshing perfectly, rumbled down the field for a touchdown. Temple received the Morgan kickoff in the 60-yard line, but it back 15 yards. Straight football, with Harmon and Jackson carrying the oval, brought the ball to Morgan's 28-yard line. Big Jim Anderson crashed thru the Morgan defense for five yards, but the ball brought back on an offside penalty. Then a bullet pass to Temple brought the ball to Morgan seven-yard line, from which points, after a short gain by Harmon, Lewis cared for the extra point. Morgan had not had the ball since the kickoff. Morgan Line Stiffens Following several exchanges of kicks, in which Anderson had the edge on Lawless of Morgan, the L. on a series of enebles to Morgan into Morgan territory, where a pass, Clark to Sydnion, brought the ball to Morgan's 11-yard marker. Here the Morgan line stiffened, and aided by a 5-yard penalty against Lincoln for delaying the game. prevented Lincoln from gain of the ball, which played into kicks and the ball went over to Morgan as the quarter ended. Second Period The Bears scored in the second period, starting their drive when Anderson's kick was blocked and received by Light in midfield. Clarke, Clarke and Hicks, Captain Pinky Clarke shot a 30-yard pass into the waiting arms of Bell, the latter traveling to Lincoln's eight-yard line before being brought to earth. Clarke made three saves, including an arrestalist Lincoln, half the distance to the goal, gave Morgan first down on the one-yard line. Hicks Score Touchdown On a line-left formation, Clarke found himself boxed in, but on the next play, Hicks slid off-tackle for a touchdown. Clarke added the extra point via an end pin. Second 1 noon Score Opening up a forward pass attack. Lincoln started a drive for the second touchdown. Captain Temple dropped a 25-yard pass with a clear field.

Anderson then reeled off a twenty-five yard end run, placing the ball on Morgan's 40-yard stripe. Following a penalty, Lincoln kicked and Hickey scored to his own 40-yard line after two touchdowns at the line failed. A pass to Lewis was good for 25 yards. Another pass, this time to "Sheep" Johnson gained 20 yards. On two line thrusts, Lewis went over. Lincoln was awarded the extra point when Morgan was off-side. On 8-Yard Line Lincoln worked the ball to Morgan's 9-yard line, in the third period, but the Morgan line would not budge and the ball was lost on downs. Harmon intercepted a Morgan forward pass later on Morgan's 85-yard line, racing to the end line and then a 15-yard penalty on Morgan for illegal use of the hands, brought the ball to Morgan's one-yard stripe, when Lewis slid over for the final touchdown of the game. Harmon again missed the extra volo. Intercept Morgan Passes The Lincoln ends and backs intercepted a number of Morgan passes in the last two periods, and once when Temple intercepted a pass to bring the ball to Morgan's 18-ard line Harmon tried a drop kick. Another drop kick tried early in the quarter was short of the goal posts. A fumble by Lawless, late in the final period, was recovered vg Viney, giant Lincoln guard, and former jougessar. The two teams assess about the field, out most of Morgan's were incomplete or intercepted. Spaulding, kept on the bench until the final period, was sent to the bench, and Morgan was around end that the Bears had. Phil Williams, another ground gainer for the Bears, was sent into the game, carrying not only the ball for a gain but also yanked out. Lincoln made 12 first downs against seven for Morgan and the entire Lion team outweighed the Bears at least 100 yards. Morgan won 106 yards in penalties, while Lincoln lost 50 yards. Several penalties were called on each team, both teams were frequently off-side. Five different men called signals for Lincoln during the game, most of the Lions' substitutions being quarterbacks.

Wednesday night. Hear Me Talkin' To Ya By BILL GIBSON THE LATEST REPORTS, and evidently the final ones, from the athletic authorities at New York university, prove that the New Yorkers are no better than their Southern brethren in the matter of racial prejudice. facts. By this time you should have read how Dave Myers, brilliant football star and only Negro member of the New York University's eleven, must sit on the bench, November 9. when his team plays the University of Georgia in New York. University of Michigan. Myers, by one white writer, "half of the team," often rises neck for the glory and honor of his school, finds that THIS is the recompense that he is to receive. He finds his feelings sacrificed before the great god Mammon—for it is merely the money which this intersectional clash will bring, that the New Yorkers are privileged. continuing. New York University knew when the game was scheduled that the Southerners would object to Myers, and they knew also that when they signed contracts for the game that those wagers away the opportunity for the bronzed star to show his wares before The only honorable thing for the New York authorities to do is to present Myers in the lineup on November 9, and let the South-ersnails off the field, or CANCEL THE GAME. Many fans want to see Myers, because he is the BIGGEST DRAWING CARD on the entire team. Placed at guard, a position that was like Myers played well; but when shifted to backfield, his first choice, he created one of the biggest sensations in Eastern football circles by almost single-handedly defeating the Penn State team. Placed in Myers's position, this writer would turn in his football togs rather than his six on the field. He would have been better than Georgia, if she became part and parcel of this Jim-Grow attempt. Whether or not Myers shall turn in his uniform, if he is not allowed to play, is of course a matter for We are asking New York University TO PLAY MYERS OR CANCEL THE GAME. And as to turning in the uniform, our sentiments remain unchanged. G THAT RAUCOUS GUFFAW you heard, come from some of the gentlemen who just finished booting over the high lights in the Carnegie University, rejoiced at athletic commercialism in the major universities and colleges of the country. Not that the report was not a studious one, that called for seriousness, but because the gentlemen who laughed are amused that the Carnegie statisticians are just waking up to many people familiar to many people, it seems to show that in investigating, there is the taint of professionalism, its remedy is rather general. Dr. Henry S. Pritchett, president of the foundation says: We paid coach, the gate receipts, the special training training tables, the costly sweaters and extensive journeys in special Pullman cars, the recruiting from the high school, the demoralizing publicity showed on the players, the devotion of an undue proportion of time to training, the creation of a desirable athletics facility, the hurdles of the academic course, these ought to stop and the inter-college and intramural sports he brought back to a stage in which they can be enjoyed by large numbers of students and where they do not involve an expenditure of time and money wholly at variance with any ideal of honest study. While briefing to the point that just a week before the publication of this report, President Mordecai Johnson of Howard University made a plea for clean sports AT HOWARD and condemned the tramp athlete in no uncertain terms. Dr. Johnson is the only president of a race institution who has made a public denunciation of professionalism in sports, and his Most cases of professionalism do not involve giving an athletic money, but usually involve the granting of scholarships or easy jobs to athletes, and we know that the school bestows such grants exist. Proselyting also exists to a great extent, and we know any number of high school grads who have received substantial offers from schools who want them because of their athletic ability. While aware of the fact that it is usually harder for a Negro athlete to get through college than it is for a white boy, there is still no reason why race institutions should not try to have a general house cleaning. We could name at least ten athletes now, who during the last four or five years, has died as a man, as many as 10 years old, as a man, or as another matter of competing in sports. As football is the leading college sport, we consequently hear more about these players during the pigskin season than at any other time. So in all sincerity, this writer suggests to those who would snicker up their sieves at the President Johnson, that he would offer his services in trying to co-operate with him and his idea in stamping out the menace of professionalism at the several other schools where there is no doubt that it exists. The principal objection to the subsidizing of athletes is not the actual subsidy, but the fact that the student services in trying to co-operate with him and his idea in stamping out the menace of professionalism at the several other schools where there is no doubt that it exists. Mobbe it would be a good thing to admit outright that certain athletes have similar to a certain salary for the season—something similar to the major league baseball today. There is no doubt that football is the only college undertaking that really pays for itself and makes money in addition. If the best players are to be obtained by offering them lucrative compensation, then let that compensation be made a public thing. I do not make it public if it is above-board? That's what we ask. BEFORE THROWING MOTHBALLS on Old Man Baseball let this writer call to your attention the Sox's spattering of the veteran Howard Ehmke to all corners of the lot last Sunday to gain seventeen base hits and a 14-7 victory. The teams, who struck out three Cubs, looked like a rag doll to the Sox clouters. So good was the going that Yokelky stepped in and tapped out a home run, and did the fans go wild? I wouldn't ask you that. This writer sat behind the catcher, Xox and could see that Ehmke was putting all of the stuff he hit on the ball. But the Black Sox waited him out and knocked his slow ball to a fare-three-well. Wilson, Washington, Smith, and Lundy were absent, but it is not likely that they any more damage that Wilson's over anxiety to smash him, he made him easy bait for Ehmke. Seven of the nine games played went to the Black Sox, and pitchers like Jack Odden. Eddie Rommel and Ehmke went by the boards as so many sandlotists. In fact, the only pitcher who seemed to give the Sox win was not a major leaguer, but Bill Crawford of Jersey City tribe. And before I forget it, let me say that in the matter of selecting the most valuable player in the American League during the season, the vote seems to be rather equally divided among Dixon and Lundy of the Black Sox and Smith of the Lincoln Giants and Britt of the Gray Sox, ask who I like, which you won't. I'll say Monsignor Herbert Dixon. A GEORGIA GENTLEMAN, who signs his checks as B. C. Baskerville, has appointed himself a committee of one to criticize President Mordecail Johnson of Howard in his stand on college athletics. Mr. Baskerville represents a viewpoint that I believe worth making public. He says: "President Johnson's attempt to clean up athletics at Howard merely my duty, and the man who burned down his house in order to get rid of the rats. He has almost sapped out interest in athletics at Howard by his dogmatic attempt to enforce an impractical and unattainable idealism. Last year the school had neither a track team or a baseball team, and this year it has practically no football team. So we see there is no doubt about his cleaning up. He not only is scrubbing off the dirt, but his is also tearing off the "The common sense attitude toward athletics does not favor destroying the game in order to get rid of the dirt. Athletics can be made clean without destroying it. In the first place, every athlete should be taught clean sportsmanship, and should be made to play the game according to "Hoyle." In the second place, the letters should be required to make a respectable grade in all or their subjects. "No athlete who cannot meet these specifications satisfactorily should be permitted to represent his school in anything. For the most part there has been entirely too much leniency in dealing with athletes. President Johnson apparently sensed that situation and promptly made the right diagnosis, but, according to the made bad case, the student should be given the right kind of medicine." "In effect he says that it is wrong and demoralizing to financially assist an athlete. Well, let us see about that. A football player has to spend approximately two and one half months or about one hundred hours in intensive training in order to represent his school. He could spend that time in earning money to remain in school, but he is in the interest of his school and energy and even his school and him, and he is the most of the most successful student in the world." "If therefore, it is wrong and demoralizing to assist such a student, then it is just as wrong and demoralizing to charge an admittance fee to see him play! When bolied down to its final analysis, there is no more wrong in assisting a deserving athlete than there is in assisting any other student who brings honor to himself and to his school." "When the student is given a school spirit and is the adhesive that binds alumni to alma mater. Why then should we sit idly by while the president is sapping out the life of the university?"

IN FIRST SCRIMMAGE Only Eighteen Out for Squad Pay Own Bills. Referrer, W. B. Wright: Umpire, R. Jones Hendimans, Burgess: Field Judge, C. G. Jackson. The quack of the Douglas high school team was rather feeble last Friday as Cardozo high school of Washington, a long shot, came thru to cop a 6-0 victory from the locals at Maryland Park. Douglas, a heavy favorite before game time, pulled the surprise of the afternoon, when with the ball on the ground, Ducks failed to carry the ball over. Fumbles were many by the locals and the visitors, led by Payne, chargers of every break of the game, fought their way to victory. The Cardozo squad numbers 18, boys each one purchasing his own ball, Baltimore for the game. There is no physical education director or coach, the team is tutored by Mr. Washingtons, Davis and Eddie Underdow, two former Virginia Seminary stars. Not having enough players to have a real scrimmage, the visitors had their first real scrimmage of the season. Payne of Cardozo kicked off to Corbett, who fumbled on his own 25-yard line but recovered. After two plays, which failed to gain the necessary yardage, Parker kicked to Payne and Corbett. They scored the second play, Carter, Cardozo quarter, fumbled and Douglass recovered on their own 10-yard line. Blocked Kick Parker's attempt to kick out was blocked and Cordozo recovered the piksink on the Douglass 25-yard mark. A steady drive, with 25-yard pass, led to a rushing the ball brought Cordozo to the ten-yard line, where Payne lunged thru the line for a score. The attempt at rushing for the extra point was unsuccessful. On the following kick, Cordozo recovered, and with Carter, Parker and Brown carrying the ball, the Ducks worked their way to Cordozo's 35-yard line. Here Payne intercepted a Douglass pass, and Cordozo hit on his own 30-yard stripe. Both teams exchanged kicks as the quarter ended. In the second period, with the ball Held on 6-Inch Line On cardozo's 6-Inch line, the Ducks were penalized five yards for remaining held for downs. On two plays Rush ran the ball out to his own 40-yard line. Douglass received a Cardozo a delayed double pass, lost ground. The Douglass line would not hold in the pinches and penalties for off- side, delaying the game and rough. There was dissension in the backfield as to who should carry the ball at times. In the second half the Ducks stuck, blocked, and Carter droubled a perfect aerial with only about 25 yards to go. Ducks on Defense Unable to keep the hall, the Ducks found themselves on the defensive most of the time. Rush, Cardozo back, line and ran the length of the field, only to be called back when his team was penalized or illegal use of the pass. The Ducks pass was intercepted late in the game and Cardozo constantly proved a scoring threat, but the Douglass line stiffened and held in the final stages of the game. Pauley and Forsyth the played best for the visitors, while Parker, Wise, Ribsby and Mussenden played best for Douglass. ARMSTRONG, D.C. VICTOR OVER STANTON, BOWIE WASHINGTON—Fresh from a 33-0 victory over Stanton High of Annapolis, Friday, the Armstrong Techiles line and Bulls, here Monday, administering a 74-0 defeat to Coach Young's charges Red Payne, star quarterback, scored six touchdowns against Bowle, and scored at will.

Howard with a 6 to 2 lead ganched through an intercepted pass, fought State to a standstill for two minutes, and it is a quarterback for the Baylor. Barnes backtracked, entered the game in the last quarter that West Virginia skewed fight. Barnes started a drive that did not end until three touchdowns were made in rapid success- Howard Line Holds State kicked to Howard and ball went over goal line. The ball was put in play by Marshall and Bracken, and a series of line bucks by Marshall and Mack.

BOTH WILL USE AIR Lincoln Has Five Quarterbacks, Many Formations. (AFTO Sports Editor) Dopesters along football row are picking Hampton as a favorite to win over the Lincoln Lions at the Polo ground in New York, Saturday afternoon. And based on the figures at hand, they are not far wrong, but—there is no certainty that things will run true to form when these two elevens need to face nine college grid game to be staged within the confines of New York City. Expect Record Crowd Expect Record Crowd The annual football tournament of both schools in New York and vicinity, and the large number of people of both races who are interested in the schools, presages a record attendance. The ticket headquarters say that practically every available seat in the big stadium has been sold out, clubs, political and social organizations have obtained a ticket to obtain a choice ticket. Such names as John D. Rockefeller, Mrs. William Jay Scheffler and George Foster Davis have sold the ticket purchases, with the colleague by large numbers of student followers and the 55-sample Hampton band, under the direction of William Scheffler, band leader, the occasion promises to eclipse any other ever staged. Lincoln Team Heavier In the first round of the distinct advantage, the team averaged 190 pounds against 179½ for Hampton, and the teams are rather evenly matched in football experience. As the edge, in the game, as they have a greater coordination of movement than the Pennsylvanians. Lincoln has a number of individual stars, but they do as smoothly as the Hampton machine. Both teams will take the飞手 with somewhat similar styles of football. Lincoln is basing her hope in lone pass to use the forward pass attack too, but it will be an attack of short and lateral passes. The Hampton team will be more conservative and will not use the forward pass attack too, but it will be an attack of short and lateral passes. The Hampton team will be more conservative and will not use the forward pass attack too, but it is certain that it is necessary. Lincoln will have more formations than the Virginians, but what few Hampton has will be letter-perfect, and Lincoln will use more straight football than Lincoln and the Hampton line, while outweighed will dominate the Pennsylvanians fightin' at home. Woo Hunter, Game 4, Battle 4. Woo Hunter, Game 4, Patterson and Gates will give Venev. Oates, James and Waters a busy afternoon. Lincoln's greatest attack will be used and her strategy. The Lions will have five men who may be depended upon to bark signals. Hampton is weak in this department, unless the Seasiders have developed their strategy since the Virginia State game. However, it may not be necessary for the quarterback to be such a strategist, for a team from a huddle formation, with McGowan, Hampton captain, directing the team. Speed in coming out of the huddle is going to count. Captain Tennessey, Lincoln will pile up the defense, captain McGowan, and a fine time they should have. Hampton will be outckicked by Lincoln, but they will be better at Hampton to defeat Lincoln by at least two touchdowns. You may believe it or not. DURHAM, N.C.—With the regular crew in action with the exception of their stellar punter, Long, the N.C. State Eagles were able to hold the Seasiders to a 24-0 score. In the first two games, the hard day lasts, plunging "Seasiders" were able to chalk up four touchdowns by constant hitting the line, getting six first downs. Guess and Moore were the outstanding players for the Seasiders. **Hampton Used two Teams Line-Up** **HAMPTON** N.C. STATE McGowan (c) C.E. Johnson Hillman R.E. R.T. Dickerson Meekins R.G.

Wlliams on Rampage Union kicked off and A. and T. started to advance from the 22-yard line but was obliged to punt. After an exchange of punted Union received a kick from Buss Williams and Burton of Union went on a rampage. Williams and Burton made first down and A. & T. was penalized fifteen yards.

BIG BLUES TRAMPLE KNOXVILLE, 42-7 KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — A plucky Knoxville college football team went down fighting Saturday afternoon, before the powerful Blues from Bluefield by a score of 47-7.

Bears 32-0. It was a one-sided affair which was featured by the spectacular runs of Cropp and Royall, and the inability of Shaw to get through the Orange Blue. In State's grand total were to be found two touchdowns by Royall, one by Lawrence "Zi" Johnson; another by Big Bears bound for a thrilling 65-yard run by Cropp. State's brilliant quarter.

CHICAGO, Illinois. — Before a throng of 20,000, Coach Abbott's smooth machine of gridders from Tuskegee downed the Bulldogs of Wilberforce University in a thrilling 6-0 game at Solder's Field here, Saturday. The teams were about evenly matched in playing ability, with Wilberforce having the edge; but the edge that Tuskegee lacked in playing ability was more than made up for in craftiness and "tricks of the foot-ball trade." Strategy Wins In Ben Stevenson, Tuskegee has as crafty a football player as ever donned a pig skin, and Stevenson's craftiness coupled with Harrison's ability to carry the ball, the ability to unleashable combination. Tuskegee's lone touchdown was due to the strategy of Stevenson in its execution and his perfect ability in eluding and shaking off every Wilberforce. Tuskegee had only two opportunities to score and registered perfectly on the Harrison-Stevenson pass in the fourth quarter, but failed in the third quarter, when within the oow of the goal, the team drew uponommates a 15-yard penalty for holding. 'Force Neglects Chances Wilberforce passed up three opportunities to score i: the first half.

Tuskegee kicked out of danger, and then, taking the ball, Harrison, of Tuskegee, passed to Roberts, of yards, making him Harrison-Wilberforce's ball, Harrison plunged two yards, Roberts lost two and Stevenson carried the ball to the seven-yard line where his attempted goal from placement was blocked. Second Quarter In the second quarter, Tuskegee fumbled on its own 30-yard line. Wilberforce was unable to make a first-down and lost the ball on the 22-yard line. From here, Shanklin Sleeman enforced the ball. Wilberforce's one-yard line took the ball away from Southerners. Neither team could make much headway in the third quarter. In the third quarter, his pass to the quarterback carried Tuskegee within four yards of the Wilberforce goal. Wilberforce rallied and took it away, kicking to its own 30-yard Harrison, who had been throwing long passes all day, caught Wilber force napping with a short pass to Stevenon who ran 20 yards Stevenson's try for a goal for the extra point failed. Two minutes later, Tuskegee was knocking again, Wilberforce door opened. Stevenson was one of Green's passes. Redden. Stevenson's place kick from the 24-yard line failed.

DEAR BANKS: Murder—the day is almost here that some folks fear, when the creepy things begin to walk about. Halloween of course—the time when other children take part in mischievous pranks and mire-making. A time when horrid-looking creatures take a delight in chasing down dark streets, making weird noises, almost screaming, two live in the street but not least, the street parade—comic and otherwise—winding up at some house or hall with beautiful parties and dances, ending a full night of mirth and fun. So, such is life. But to the parties that have taken place. The Ascenses Dance. Pansy, my dear, the Ascene event last week was a peach. Enjoying themselves as only a care-free, happy spirit, we built beautifully costumed people frolicled at a masquerade dance as guests of the Ascenses at the Odd Fellows Hall. Friday evening. They represented every country in the universe. With their picturesque costumes, they could make the altar in the appearance of an international hall. Then again, girlie, when one looked around and saw the funny clowns, beautiful gypsies, dancing girls, toreadors and many other uniquely dressed girls, grand and glorious feeling and made you glad to be there, to see it all. Virginia Johnson was costumed as a Hawaiian and looked very chic. Mary Ellen Cooper just melted your heart in her nifty little creation as the Pierrot outfit that Ruth Booker was attired in, caused many an envious eye. Wilhelmia Robinson, Pansy, was really bewitching in her Arabic princesses and exquisite beauty of attention. The Assoe members looked very distinctive in their white trousers and blue coats, and really put it over that night. And blue soft lights glowing softly down on the revellers gave just the right effect for the desired environment. Real fruit and vegetables with golden brown leaves, intermixed all along the walls, were the scheme of decorations. Corn stalks were piled in corners of the room, making it one of the best decorated halls of this season. Kevin Hughes and his Southerners completed a full evening of pleasure. The members of the club are: Not Married, Says Gladys. Pansy, whiz, whit, rushing is getting things rather mixed in the Dutleuille in, Philly declared it is all false that she is engaged. Now here comes this week a statement from Gladys Costley, the dietician in the report that she is married to Dr. Howard Allen, former interne, who is soon to practice in Washington. So that; that. Manzella in Virginia. It never rains unless it pours. News will rain in somehow. will continue to pour in, somehow. This evening a friend just called over the phone that the fourth teacher on the faculty of the training department this week, was no other than our own home-town Mansell Pendleton, who received her A.B. from Morgan in June. Coming back from the class-room, it is clear that Mansell, will make a good record in her present position. And still more interesting, Fanida, her sister, has been accepted as a student at Freedman's hospital for nurse training, and at the same time as a college student at Howard University, on recommendation of Dr. Warfield. Morgan-Lincoln Hops. Pansy, the Morgan-Lincoln game brought many out-of-town friends Baltimore-ward to enjoy a week-end full of festivities. To begin with the ever-charming Morgan column of Philly, known to most of us as "Miss Cool Breeze," of the Tattler column, was seen gliding through the Morgan gate in her Packard eight coupe. Her sister Marie, and Buddy Lefridge, of Lincoln, were hurried in together. The Jamisons, Elaine Hughes, and Johnny Forsyth, of the Pittsburgh Courier, were glimpsed in the film, Billy of DG, also the Rev. and Mrs. W. A. C. Hughes, were seen exchanging letters. George Drummond and Edward Gray, of Boston and Lincoln, were considered sheeks to girls. Harrius Harris, Eitel Riley and Fannie Amos, motored in from New York, and heavens, many others from out of town had I the time to mention them. But to the social event, many of the Morgan students entertained on Friday night with a dance at the Penn Hotel. I mean the Lincolnites poured in from every place; and every student that was allowed to help Morgan campus was there to help the evening enjoyable for the visitors. Charlotte Watson, for instance, Marjorie and Amy Valentine, Veronica Woodward, Bridget Briggs, and Morris Morris, Morris, Tilghman, Dorothy Mitchell, Lilian Dotson, and other girls and boys represented the rival colleges. Besides, a number of hops were staged at various homes. Blanch McRae's Party Blanch McRae, Pansy, of 112 Drum Heights club and the Brudh club at its opening meeting on last Wednesday with a just-too-bad-righteous party. They hurriedly got through with the business and the club right over again as president, then they made several plans for their winter activities. After that, the hostess ruled the rest of the evening. Brush was played and Blanche produced the nifftest little tails and score pads you ever laid your eyes on. For the prizes, she tipped the scales in judgment and made everybody present wish he or she had been among the winners. However, Etta Burk led for the guest prize, Connie Wharton, for keeping she Ruth Sullivan, for winning the prize. After all the excitement subdued, our good friend had the folk to come to the dining room—every eatable was on the table and justice was on the food line—not even enough left for the eat. Among the jolly people, were: Elmira Tibbs, Connie and Hermione Wharton, Etta Burwell, Eunice Berry Hall, Etta Berry, Dorothy and Holly Hall, Beverly Plava, Thomas and Gladys Shepherd as guests.

Around Baltimore THE "PRIDE" CELIBERATES. The trumpets jazzed, the boys fell in line and were off. Up the streets of Baltimore, accompanied by the Monumental lodge, rolled the Pride of Baltimore lodge in celebration of its third anniversary. The proper blessing having been invoked Sunday, the event it was just matter of "strutting their stuff" before the public. Behind the rabble of urchins who insist on doing the black bottom in the vanguard, four horsemen of the police department, astride four beautiful mounts. The officers seemed to have been taken out of a picture, for all of them were of the same size and complexion and all sported musc In their wake followed the Marching clubs of the two lodges, details from their membership. Elks each unit had its leader and the trusty Jule H. Murphy, Jr. exalted ruler of the Pride of Baltimore. led the whole organization. Bands were good and the académie Ruler Truly Hattchell of the monumental lodge. There were two bands, a male outfit and a female organization. Bands were good and that it stood out pre-eminently. Especially did the lady drum major, Mrs. Martha Butler Pulley "walk her beat." She was the drummer for ever was attired and wielded a wicked stick. Mrs. Pulley received almost as much applause as did John Murphy, Jr. She was Baltimore gm chaser. According to the applause Dr. Boley received without any apparent cause, he should run for Congress and they have any running direction. The outfit marched and marched until it reached the intersection, where it was successful in delivering the evening street car traffic a terrific knockout. At this juncture, the original "straighten-out man," Police Commissioner Sergeant Oscar Koche, took charge of the police force of Four Big United Railway, "Car Check Protectors," and saw that the standards of the Temples and Lodges were safely kept. The police were gotten out of the street so that the good work carried on by the railway company could go on and the people could get out to Garrison bridge, where their beaks and chops froze to the skillet. GETS HOTTER. With the parade over, the public thought the anniversary celebration would kind of die down and keep within normal bounds, but instead of doing like that it kept on getting better and better. Every night would spring a new event—they would have an unusual routed parade they would have an informal parade even if it was just around the block or from upstairs to the floor below. As a matter of fact the parade to the floor below was continuous contagions. Down in the attachment you would take part in a riot which was staged from twelve o'clock in the day until some time the next morning. Harking back to the starting day of the anniversary, it must be recalled that the divine blessing was invoked which he consecrated by praying. Rev. Brother Steepleman of the Bethel A.M.E. church had charge of this situation and it must be admitted that Brother Steepleman rounded out and sent up, through the roof of Bethel to Heavenly Hollow, a prayer that should be uprightened for all Elk amulet-series. Rev. Brother Steepleman could pray rain down on the沙漠er. The proof is, that the minute the reverend stopped praying, success started crowding the Balloon of the anniversary celebration. Monday night after the parade, it was just a matter of getting in form and getting the spirit, which was done profusely. The Great Southern temple assisted in the charge from all indications. The Southern temple is the greatest temple in the South. "BIG DOGS." Tuesday night was set aside for the Grand Lodge. On this occasion the "big dogs" showed up to get entertained. The Hon. Finley Wilson, the prince of vote-getters, was on hand with the Hon. Perry Howard, the national commissioner of the NAACP, with Counsellor Roy Bond Prof. Howard Gross, Counsellor J Howard Payne and Dr. James Hilburn. They occupied the room and just just here that this gang would be a big load on anybody's rostum. The Hon. Finley took charge of the situation. Hon. Perry Howard How-land was produced by the Hon. Roy Bond, who was in turn introduced by the Hon. James Hilburn, who was in turn of the big shots of the Baltimore educational system. Before about a thousand people these gentlemen began throwing bouquets at each other with such vim and persistence that ruler himself had to take air, claiming that he had to catch an eleven brain. When the flowers had all been swept away, Exalted Murpry, who was below decks seeing that the cash registers were in order, was sent for, and made one of the best one-sentenced speeches he ever heard in the signal, for after that everyone adduced to the next floor and started drinking up all the ginger ale, orange crush, whiskey, ginger mint juleps, etc. Wednesday night, the Harper temple and the Somerset, with the assistance of G. D. R. Murpry Abbie Johnson of Philadelphia, performed. BARN DANCE This celebration was in the form of a birthday party and a barbecue, where the big girls, the little girls, the young girls and the old girls. The occasion called for costumes such as an angel dresses, very short—shorter than usual. It was really surprising how well built some of the old sisters D. G. NIGHT. Thursday night was D. C. night. Now it was really "just too bad." As in days of old when knights were bold, the Baltimore delegates met in Baltimore and escorted them into the home. The Washington boys had on their uniforms with a kind of cape attachment which was thrown over their shoulders and all bound around them. They shined in the light. And ohl the torches they carried. They had their band and everything, and made a wonderful impression on the city as they walked through the Washington brothers got home safely in spite of the fact that the diet in Baltimore is very different from the diet in Washington. There have been cases on record, however. The Baltimore brothers in corn stomachs without any disastrous results. FORMALITY. Friday night was the formal reception at which time Brother Howard Payne, the chairman of the surrogate hospital, Brother Payne was so official, Brother Payne was so formal with that stiff bosomed shirt on that he appeared to be stuck up. but he wasn't. The fact of the matter was that the night was almost over before that shirt loosened up on him. After that he was all right. One thing about these formal affairs is that when they come off all of the people are too tressed up to fight. However, a good time was had by all. Sunday night the seat of operation was moved from the home to the Renton theatre on Pennsylvania avenue. Brother John M. Marquess of the Quaker City lodge of Philadelphia was the speaker of the occasion. Brother Marquess came in grand glory. He brought his own band with him and such a band it was. According to a Pennsylvania avenue bystander the band had so many men in it that the bass drum section alone had elighted it could and how! Beside it, the Point cadets would look like a pallad of hoy scouts. Monday night the rest of Philadelphia came down with the O. V Catto lodge, headed by the astute Police Magistrate Judge Helen O. Catto. The place by form with their string band. At three o'clock in the morning the band was still stroking, and from all appearances it loked as if the Helen Judge would not get back to Delphia in time to send any body to With the departing of the O. V Catto lodge the curtain was pulled down on the scene. Good luck with his plan for the obtaining of two thousand new members before Christmas. In the meantime, you must count the money in hand, which should not take up over two weeks.

Detroit, Michigan—The department of recreation of the city of Detroit opened its newest community center, a project just completed as a cost of nearly $400,000, with a formal dedicatory program, Friday night last. Members of the city council, the mayor, and Recreation Commissioner G. E. Brewer were present and spoke. The principal address was delivered by Ernest T. Attwell of Philadelphia, field director of the Bureau of Colored Work, Playground and Recreation Association of America. Mr. Atwell said: "Public recreation should meet the needs of all creeds, classes and races. Placing this fine central community center—though open to all citizens—in a neighborhood where the population is largely of the colored group, emphasizes the mutualness on the part of the city administration that should not be overlooked by sane, well-balanced, good-willed citizens. "There is no city in America that has as squaresly met the needs of the usually less-favored group. And this is true: recreation for the masses, just as is true of schools, must be supplied by municipal support and provision. Public responsibility for welfare programs, tax supported, is part of the need and of progress." Annapolis ANAPOLIS, Md. ~Mr. The Rev.

JAZZ HITS TEXAS White Night Club Puts in a White Bedroom Orchestra. NEW YORK.-The Industrial Relations Department of the National Urban League of which T. Arnold Hill is director, has released the following bulletin for September: White Chicago and Los Angeles were bargaining for jobs with their purchasing power, Kansas City used its political power to negotiate political policies, the promotion of a former detective to sergeant of police—the first in the history of Kansas City—and a clerkship in the State Grass Department. Significant also was the promise of the Carolina chamber of commerce to "use his influence in every way possible to get a manufacturing plant there that will employ Negro men and a better situation in this section among Negroes may be relieved." This is significant because the industries, principally textile manufactories, which have employed Negroes section have not employed Negroes. Charlotte, it will be recalled, is in the midst of menacing labor union uprisings involving Communist laborists and owners of the textile plants. It was here that William Z. Foster, Communist leader, recently became the executive chair of the creation of Negroes in the Communist labor movement. "White" Servants Agitation is being started in 'several parts of the country in the interest of household employees who are losing the hold they once held on domestic service. A check of the wants ads in Louisville daily papers showed that many servants, and Louisville, as most everybody knows, has always negroes in this capacity. Omaha made plans for a conference to be incorporated in by servants and housewives. Hot Springs, DesMoines, Minneapolis and Philadelphia, reported gains in domestic service, including the wafles of tables. Miners Wanted Pittsburgh is short of miners, and one of the largest operators in the district is advertising for workers, offered a wage package, pay and good living condition: Building operations, on the upgrade in Lansing, Fort Wayne, and Spartanburg, have offered jobs to Negro workers. We have new places secured are a toy factory in Newark employing several bench workers an a new five and ten cent store with stockman; a garage chain in St. Louis and a new cell booth; and a colored orchestra for a white night club in Austin, Texas. Back to Farms Raleigh and Soartanburg reported a movement back to the farms for harvesting and cotton picking, and California, whose San Joaquin Valley is building for Negro farm hands. Richmond observed a slight increase in industrial employment and the Urban League of that city is putting on a program of training classes to increase the efficiency of its appl- Shops Lay Off The Pullman shops in St. Louis and Wilmington, Delaware, temporaries, and in New York, men. St. Louis has also experienced losses in a large motor company and a car foundry; in Denver, in larger six-soda dispensers, alleging that "the fountain has been leased to a number of young men who will operate it." In New York and one in Brooklyn, are now using white workers instead of colored, some of whom have given continuous labor. No reason was given for the change. Two in Collision on One Way Two men were seriously injured when their machine had a head-on collision with another automobile, Sunday. The injured men, Louis Wheatley 1139 Rice street and Joseph Wilson 111 W. West street, suffered compound fractures of the skull and probable internal injuries.

A fight for a state institution of higher education took definite form here last Saturday when the State Teachers' Association appointed a committee to investigate and make recommendations to this effect at the next meeting. The adoption of the resolution followed a discussion brought out by the report of the resolutions committee. Among proponents of the separate state institution was Miles Conner, principal of the Coppin normal training school. Some Favor Morgan Although the discussion on the floor did not develop any marked opposition, it is known that a number of educators, while favoring state support for a school of higher training, are inclined to favor the development of Morgan college as a state school. 800 Register With eight hundred teachers registered, the session was one of the biggest in the history of the association The formal sessions began in the afternoon at 2:30 with a combined double session, at which time Mayor William E. Browning. Superintendent David E. Weglein and Director Francis M. Wood, welcome. This session was marked by an unusually large attendance of city teachers, many of whom registered. Miss Myrtle M. Patton, visiting nurse of Calvert county, one of the only two colored nurses employed in Maryland counties, read an excellent paper on "The ways and means of protecting the health of school children," stressing one of the two objectives this year, health education. This same year, she was also scheduled for a rural group meeting Saturday by Miss Edith C. Lenz, director of child health, Maryland, Tuberculosis. Society. Unique Opportunity Speaking on "Bringing our school room practice up to accepted theory," Dr. E. E. Lewis, of the department of school administration, Ohio State university, declared that the Negro had the unique opportunity of carrying out educational theories and putting them into practice more than the white race. "We are more creatures of circumstances, environment and education than we once thought. Education is publicly expressed in this thought. Think what I shall be, when I make you, make me." Public education cannot be reduced to per cents standards, and norms, but to the hearts and ideals of boys and girls, stated Dr. Lewis. School Attendance The question of school attendance the second objective for the year was discussed by David Jenkins, assistant superintendent of schools Annapolis, who urged upon the teachers their responsibility in the matter of good attendance. The responsibility is divided between the superintendent for proper buildings and equipment, the supervisors for improvement of classroom instruction, and the teacher who always reflects the attendance of her school As the teacher, so is the school and the attendance. Victor Daniel, principal of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute, read a paper written by Mrs. Daniel on the lack of sound moral fibre in the teaching force of good-fitting teacher's product. It is not only the transmission of academic knowledge that is a constantly increasing influence, the result of unconsciously exerted example. Dr. Jackson Davis, director of education. General Education Board New York State. The several Southern states giving proper educational facilities to the people of the race, particularly during the past decade. College students. Huskee number 870, and five, the center of the total enrollment, he decharged. Evening Session The main address of the evening was delivered by Prof. Leslie Pinkney Hill, principal of Cheyney normal school, Cheyney, Pa. Dr. Hill depended on the help of his teachers, to make the most of their natural environment to enrich the life as well as aid toward the practical values in the home of the child Speaking of the problem of Negro teachers, Dr. Hill questioned "Do the young teachers really see the contribution that the Negro child, fifty years from now, will make to civilization?" he is no policy" he declared, "that white men can adopt that won't boost the Negro, nothing that they can do to impede the race that does not put a premium on Negro development. "Race teachers fall to look forward or to study the history of the race," he added. "They should study the social sciences, including biology, history, anthropology, psychology ethnology, in order to know more of man and his development and his possibilities, particularly for the Negro." Most teachers can not name ten Negroes who have changed the thought of the world. "We are suffering from a mis conception of truth. The white race believes that God is a white man, and the black race, that He is a black man, and the white race God cannot possibly be a white man, and equally true is it that He cannot be a black man. Many persons suffer from similar misconceptions of truth, although the Negro is in a position where he is obliged to see both sides of a question. He accomplished practically all that is to be accomplished in a far superior way to what we might accomplish," he continued, "with one exception. There is one thing, that the white man has not produced with all his efforts what he might accomplish." The race" he maintains, "has its greatest opportunity to make a contribution to the world's civilization by teaching its children how to behave as they should, for that is the one field that the white man has just preenched at the same time as world's greatest need." THE WOMEN'S UNION Whether you rooted for Doughlass high or for Morgan last week, you were out of luck. These young sub-debs sat on a rail last Friday to cheer the Ducks and were disappointed when their team failed to score. Their cries for a touchdown were heard throughout the game despite their defeat. They are, Misses Margaret Tolbert (left) and Virginia Spencer. Rouge, La., told of the problems confronting those who seek to improve education for the race in the South. The old problem of opposition to Negro education has given way to one of indifference and apathy. Mr. Favrot outlined to the audience a program of progress in the education for the race over the past ten years, particularly in Georgia, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Alabama, calling attention to the consolidating of schools such as Morehouse, Spelman and Atlanta university, in Georgia, and the probable combination of Bishop and Wiley colleges in Texas. The president of the association, Jesse L. Nicholas, principal of Towson school, Baltimore county, gave a report of the schools work of the association in his address, which closed the formal session. AFRO VISITORS John L.

Warns About Tularemia Hunters Urged Not to Handic Dead Rabbits With Bare Hands. At this time of the year it is appropriate to reiterate the warning issued in 1928 by Dr. Riley of the Maryland State Health Department, regarding precautions to be taken in the handling of rabbits and other small game. A disease called tularemia, rabbit-tick fever, deer fly fever and rabbit fever has been found prevalent among rabbits. This disease is transmissible to man by contact with the infected animals. Hunters are warned not to handle rabbits which have been easy to kill—slow rabbits, emaciation or apparently unhealthy animals.
