Written exclusively for the AFRO-AMERICAN (Reproduction forbidden without consent of this Newspaper) Shakespeare, in "Titus Andronicus," tells the story of a Roman Empress who had a child by a black menial. Here is a true story of a French Queen, daughter of one of the oldest royal families of Europe, the Hapsburgs of Spain and Austria, who did the same. As may be imagined, the story was hushed up at the time, but enough of it came out to create a first-class scandal. It was, however, not until the death of all parties concerned that the full story was told with the result that there arose many written versions of it. Besides, the many stories and romances that have been written around the incident have complicated matters. This, however, is a presentation of the story, shorn of romance. THE STORY Several years after the death of the Queen, Marie-Theresa, of Austria and Spain, wife of Louis XIV, and about the time the King had secretly married his favorite, Mme. de Mantenon, an unknown man who said that he was a shoeing smith from an adjoining province, presented himself at the gates of Versailles and demanded to see the King. The guards took him for a crank, but as he insisted that he had a secret of great importance for the ears of the King alone, the gentlemen of the household finally decided to report the matter to their chief, the Marshal Durus. The latter, with his shitty eyes and his clumsy speech and manners, also decided that he was—a fool, and bade him give his message and be gone.

With their discovery, the theory that Pierson had been killed by hinder-uses in the war about to expose shortages in their accounts falls to the ground. In their place is the indication that the auditor's love affairs when the right light will prove a clue to the mystery. Detectives are not making known the names of those who are under suspicion.

By WILLIAM N. JONES WASHINGTON.—The first pronounced fight on a Senator as a result of his stand on the Judge John J. Parker confirmation, which continued to rage in the upper body, broke through the surface this week when Negro leaders in Wilmington, Delaware, began the circulation of a petition against Senator Daniel O. Hastings, (Rep.) and laid plans to defeat him in the coming election. This petition is signed by such mea as Dr. J.-B. Stubbs, member of the board of health; William J. Winchester, councilman from the second ward; John O. Hopkins, councilman from the sixth ward and others. In Wilmington, it is predicted that history will repeat itself and the Negro voters will there will run to Hastings as they did on DuPont air. Lavings, the third gentlemen, moved up on the wrong side of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. Hastings Pronounced Senator Hastings set his position out into the limelight last week when he went on record in favor of Parker following a statement by Senator Robert F. Wagner (Dem., New York). "In my state," Senator Wagner had said, "men and women participate fully and freely in every phrase of the Constitution," and regard to race or creed or color. "From the contributions to its development by the Negro as well as the white man, the State of New York has grown to the position it has today." Senator Hastings replied, said that Parker and every Southern man of any standing, was opposed to the Negro voting and he favored Judge Parker. Fight Shifts Tuesday, Senator Samuel M. Shortridge (Rep. Calif.) read into the Senate a bill that would have been taken from the St. Luke Herald, declaring that some Virgina Negro leaders favored the Judge be granted the constitutional latitude shown in a case in that state.

Amendments. Ashurst Flares The main battle front, however, has shifted to charges that Hower's nomination of the judge grew out of political consideration and that the administration forces were exerting pressure to bring about his confirmation. Two incidents in the Senate along this line set that body into heated action over the week-end. The first step was in a Democrat (Daniel Demon) who is opposing the confirmation, read a letter from Assistant Secretary of the Interior, Joseph M.

"But admitting all that can be untrue is still a great truthfully said against the Negro, it also remains true that a great deal that is untrue is said against him; that is untrue is truthfully said in favour of the white man who lives beside and upon him. The Clamorous South "Are you aware that these white men of the South who say that the Negro is unfit to cast a vote, and who are equally clamorous in insisting that his votes must be counted as cast when it comes to comparing their own representation with the representation of the white men of the North? "The present leader of the Democrats in the House of Representatives is John Sharp Williams, a typical white man, who is in his district, three out of every four men are Negroes; the fourth man, a white man, does not allow any of these Negroes to cast their votes, so that his one vote offsets the votes of four white men in New York, Massachusetts or "pennsylvaniana".

She went. "The mayor and the sheriff notified her and me that she came back. I put up the office for the remainder of her term. It was all I could do and The South Screams "Now, Dan, so far from there being any reprobation of this infamy, the entire South, led by your friends in Charleston, screamed against you, saying that you were driving the citizens of Indiana of their mall simply because they let a mob chase away, by threats of murder, a worthy, refined, educated and hard-working color woman whom every republican admired. And that town had indored for the position! 5 Per Cent of Negroes This is at present the typical Southern attitude toward the best type of colored man or colored women; and absolutely all I have been doing is to ask, not to ask, not to ask, not to ask, not that 95 per cent of the Negroes be allowed to vote; not that there be Negro domination in any shape or form, but that these are intelligent and honest colored men and women be given the pitiful chance to have a little reward, a little respect, a little reward, a little earnest success in winning. Bishops Stand Up "The bishops of the Episcopal Church have, for the most part, stood up for it. The best Southern judges have stood up for it.

Goldsborough, asking them to vote against the appointment. The committee in charge of this resolution included the Rev. J. E. Lee, Rev. W. Wesley, Rev. R. A. Genge, Rev. E. Wesley, Rev. R. W. H. Coston. Favor Organic Union By a vote of 167 to three, the conference went on record as favoring organic union of the A.M.E. and that the A.M.E. would fight against the project was made by the Rev. J. E. Lee, who declared that the practices of the two bodies were too much similar to admit a bishop Farmar "opposed union with the British M.E. Church at the general conference of 1872 at Nashville, Tennessee." The 1880, the same bishop opposed union on the ground that he believed that the A.M.E. Church had a special mission to perform as long as there were bishops, jim-crowism and discrimination. "The present plan of union is not feasible because not one-half of the members of the union would produce discord in the distribution of the general offices. "History shows that nearly every attempt toward union of two or more members has resulted in a new denomination." Hawkins Favors Dr. John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the denomination, outlined the declaration of principles and public pronouncement of the joint commission on organic unionism, spoke in favor of the union as follows: The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, May 10, 1930 "There is a lurking fear," he said, in the hearts of some ministers that threatened to danger the organite union of the A.M.E. and A.M.E. Zion churches, because there will be a disposition on them to nominate to favor the men they dealt with in their own denomination before the union was perfected. "It is likewise suggested that the noble tradition; and ideals of our great A.M.E. Church will suffer from this union. The first instance, there may be some reason to fear that the presiding bishops may be inclined to favor those whom they knew best in their several churches before the coming of the short duration. The bishops and leaders of the united churches will soon discover the most efficient and deserving men and be only too glad to use them to insure the success of the united Methodist Episcopal Church. "There could be no possible way for the traditions and ideals of our church to be sacrificed or in any other way be preserved in the churches have sacred traditions and ideals that are not only in common but practically identical. History in Common "We have history in common, as- sistance, that deserves a common uniter- gency." "All of our general officers and practically all of our bishops have approved the plan of union and are prepared to work with the temporary handcaws that may come during the early years of this union. We expect no ill consequences that will not be overwhelmed and completely overshadowed by the great success of the concessions concreted efforts of more than one million souls to promote the Kingdom of Righteousness. "I for one am willing to take my chincess and make whatever sacrifices that I have made in united Methodism within our group. "I therefore beg that in the interest of righteousness, the Baltimore Conference will go on record as faroring organic union with the A.M.E. Minister Expelled The heavy hand of church discipline fell on the Rev. W. H. Baker, brought up before an executive session of the House to charge the charge of fraudulently collecting gifts in the name of the aged home. A conference committed voted for his expulsion. This committee comprised: the Reverends J. A. Briscoe, J. M. Boston. H. E. Walden, J. M. Harrison, D. E. Rice, J. L. Clegreler and J. S. Collins. Suspension Lifted The suspension placed upon the Rev. W. H. Baker. The character of the Rev. John D. Taylor was passed after he had admitted alleged violations of church laws. The Rev. Mr. Taylor declared that the death of his wife forced him to use money for funeral expenses. S7709 for Old Folks' Home Reports made by the Rev. H. E. Walden, superintendent of the Old Folks' House, show that a total of $7709.65 has been collected for this agency and $7841.58, expended, leaving a deficit for the year of $551.64.

Assn. of Negro Tailors, Dressmakers and Purrlers Sir: I ask in the Senate chamber on yesterday, and heard your letter read by Senator Overman of North Carolina, asking and urging confirmation of Judge Robert N. Negrogs of North Carolina were out of politics on account of their own conduct. I was told that Judge N. Negrogs do not possess the right of conception of citizenship or the rights of all the people under constitution of the United States. Of course, I do not know to what extent you speak for your whole organization, nor do I know to what extent you speak for your letters smacks of coercion on the part of your superiors down there and I use the word superiors because you evidently understand the Caucasus as being superior. Unless I am informed that you speak but for yourself and not for the organization, or that you be misrepresented or coerced to do so, you have taken on the matter.

Composers Pleases Large Audience at Armstrong Auditorium BRILLIANT CAST Local Talent in Excellent Interpretation of Drama BY LOUIS R. LAUTER WASHINGTON, D.C.-Beta Chapter of the Alphie Phil Alpha fraternity presented "Black Empire," erecta, in the auditorium of the Armstrong High School last Friday evening. The musical score was by Walter Merrick. The book and lyrics were by Wilburt Strickland and Thomas Williston. Strickland and Williston must be grateful for their dramatization of the life of Henri Christophe, the black despot who was born a slave and became King of Haiti, but they sacrificed a forceful plot for a happy ending. The drama would have been stronger if the historical basis had been followed. Christophe was a paralytic. The tom-tom drums were beating in the distance, the sound becoming more approached Sans Souci. Christophe summoned his wife and two daughters, gave them papers entailing them the story, and banked at England and sent them away. Alone in his bedchamber he threw himself off his chair and dragged himself across the floor. He rolled himself into a snow-white satin gown and dragged himself back into the room. The came carrying torches. The rebels entered the place. A crash of broken glass hit the floor. He came to his temple. A shot reverberated Christophus was dead. He had put a Christophe was dead. He had put a golden bullet through his brain. Of the music Cecil Cohen, instructor of music at Howard University, says that it "is tuneful, colorful and of an unusual variety, and Merrick has shown in the character of the various songs, taking for instance, 'Jeanne-Marie,' 'Sunset,' and 'Son of Mine,' which are all very beautiful. The ancient idiom as compared to 'Pirates' 'Fantasy,' and the arrangement of the voodoo chants which show a decided influence of Spanish and African music, is the Bowl of Board,' with its swirling rhythm has been compared favorably with the 'Stein Son' from the operetta, 'Old Heidelberg.' The short, but powerful piece, 'We Vow,' is a piece of clever writing as is 'Down With Christophe,' with its cries from the chorus. The dancing added much to the operatic impression, likewise was Alice Lewis as Renee, a voodoo priestess, and a group of dancers in a voodoo dance number. Adrienne Marshall and a group of her dancers danced at the court of Christophe. Christophie was portrayed by Joseph Hill. Ehyl Wise was cast as Jeanne-Marie. Henry McPherson played opposite her as Andre. Winston Willcoughy had the role ofelson in the play. The best bit of active perhaps, was that of Merrick as Horatius Geoffrey, an English professor. Others in the cast were Ariche Burrell, Louise Burge. Annie Stickle, Justine Stacem, Warner Collins, Aubrey Marshall and Rewan O. Murray. The "empirettes" were Charlotte THE FASHION Be sure to ask for the combination treatment--- Black and White Ointment and Skin Soap. The 50c package contains three times the quantity of the 30c size.

AFRO VISITORS 3 Ethiopian King Used Planes to Quell Revolt But Tafari MaKonnen Gives Enemy Elaborate Funeral and Royal Senulchre PARIS-Tafari Makmenen, emperor of Abyssinia, used a squadron of French and British troops to rebel chiefs three weeks ago, according to reports reaching here. A number of Abyssinians chiefs, headed by Chief Goukaş, and about 100 French and British guns and rifles obtained from the Italian protectorate of Etrrea and Somaliland, began a march on Emporia, a former French officer, Mallett, commanding four airplanes attacked the assailing column about 35 miles northwest of Etrrea, slaughtered several hundred of the warriors and scattered the survivors. Chief Goukaş was wounded and, in the ensuing battle, the wounded chief's body was dismembered and dismbowled, but the head was carefully preserved for identification. The defeat of Chief Goukaş struck the other chiefs and they surrendered. The fragments of the defeated chief's body were carried to Addis Ababa where Emperor Goukaş gave the defeated funeral and they surrendered. The day following the defeat of the rebels, Empress Zauditu, heiress of Menelik to whom the rebelling cultains maintained allegiance, died, and the king was accused of poisoning Empress Zauditu. Empress Zauditu had been suffering from typhoid and renounced treatment by French doctors for an Abassian priest's practice. The priest ordered a sacred bath for the empress whoainted in the ice waters and without recovering consciousness. Seamen Save Nine Lives PROVIDENCE, R. I.

Tidrington, vice supreme chancellor of the Order of Knights of Pythias and leading politician who was unrured here recently was portrayed in court last week as a caward, a liar and a bully.

STOKES SERVANT TAKES LID OFF EMPLOYER'S LIFE Ex-Maid Connects Millionaire with Numerous Scandals SUES FOR $48,000 Mrs. Johnson Asks for 20 Years' Back Pay NEW YORK, (ANP.) — Painting her deceased employer as a schemer, meddler, and social agitator, Mrs. Hattie Johnson, formerly employed as maid in the W. E. D. Stokes household, suing for $48,000 allegedly due her, filed a revised bill of particulars in the Supreme Court Friday, declaring that for twenty years, she was aid to Stokes in planning the many nefarious doings she attributes to him. Amazing as the life record of Stokes was, with his incestual legal brawls and wrangles, the astounding are the charges the former 'Queen Underworld' brings against his character in affidavit supporting her claim. Inspired Thaw Murder Inspired Traw number She directly accuses him of inspiring in the pursuit of Stanford White by Harry K. Thaw by sending the Pittsburgh millionaire a letter telling him of Evelyn Nesplitt's associations with White. This letter, she says, was the paper Thaw read and crumbled an instant before he drew a revolver and killed the noted architect twenty-four years ago next morning. Stokes, according to Mrs. Johnson, took credit for the edict of Bishop William T. Manning, which prevented the marriage of Dr. Percy Sickney Grant to Mrs. Rita de Acosta Lydig who had been divorced almost twenty-five years before, although the rest of the family believed that Dr. Gwynn believed the bishop's action was based solely on canonical grounds, Mrs. Lydig being a divorcee. Carried Obscene Letter Mrs. Johnson swears she carried a missive to Bishop Manning from Stokes when the announcement from Lodge was made. She did not know its con Slain Harlem Racketeer Buried in a $5,000 Metal Casket MRS. HATTIE JOHNSON tent at the time, she says, but later lerned it contained an obscene letter allegedly written by Mrs. Lydig. "I don't know where Stokes got the letter," says the statement, "but I know that soon after, after a deed that Dr. Grant made a deed that Dr. Grant would give to give up his church if he married Mrs. Lydig." Incidentally, this was one of the most sensational cases in the annals of the Episcopal Church. We know, highly respected, rector of a fashionable church, and Mrs. Lydig, a Cuban beauty, who was immensely wealthy in her own right, were forbidden to marry.

As a result of this court action, she was charged with contempt of duty, Chicago, of complying to defame Mrs. Stokes. At that time, Mrs. Johnson was described by a Chicago judge as "the most dangerous woman in the world."

CARDUI Helps Women to Health CARDUI Used By Women For Over 50 Years NEW YORK, (ANP.)—Lying in a $5,000 metal casket, the funeral of Harry Block, gangster, racketeer, and part owner of a number of night clubs, was held Friday morning from an undertaking establishment in Harlem. Block, former partner of Owen Madden, owner of the famous "Cotton Club," at 142nd Street and Lenox Avenue, was shot and killed by two unknown men as he entered the elevator of the apartment house where he lived, early Tuesday morning. At the time, Block was accompanied by his wife. According to police reports, Block concocted with the wrecking of the Plantation Club in West 126th Street, was a strong factor in his early demise. Plantation Demolished The story of the wrecking of the Plantation Club was one of the most daring in New York. Opening shortly before Christmas, the luxurious interior of the club was completely demolished a week later when business in the new club surpassed that of the old, established rivals. Followed a rebuilding of the club at an outlay of some $20,000 and a reopening. The club stayed open one night then closed abruptly without warning. It is said that the owners of the club had very definite information from owners of other clubs of the same kind in New York, which continued to result in a spraying of the place with machine gun bullets during its busiest hour. It would have been folly to ignore such a pointed warning. Club Moved The Plantation revue then moved down to Eldridge Street in lower New York in the Jewish district of the East Side. Playing there for a month or so, the revue finally landed in just off Broadway. When last heard of the revue was playing in a Jewish Theatre on the East Side. But Block's connection with the night club racket had been very well known and at present, people were off another gentleman, even more prominently identified with the Harlem Clubs than the late Mr. Block. 5.000 Elks Parade PHILADELPHIA- Five thousand Elks from Philadelphia, Camden, Atlantic City, Wilmington, Baltimore to Philadelphia, a memorial service of Quaker City Lodge No. 20, at Metropolitan Opera House, Sunday.

Williams, president of the National Baptist Convention, did well to call off public addresses scheduled in Baltimore and Washington last week unless he was willing to be quizzed concerning the recent mysterious killing of A. D. Moore, the reputed auditor, by Chicago gunmen who enticed him from a Nashville-Columbus brain at Louisville and carried him fifty miles outside of the city before shooting him and tying weights to his body and throwing him in the river. That robbery was not the motive was indicated by the fact that Pierson's money, watch and five-hundred-dollar diamond pin were found on his body. Sensational allegations that he was killed by a bout of convention officials who were short in their accounts are discounted by reason of the fact that the financial transactions of the convention are an open book to its officials and shortages of convention officials have been previously reported to various boards without anything being done about it. Pierson's killers wanted revenge. They got it. They made Pierson suffer for whatever wrong they think he did. Those who knew Pierson will think that there is a woman in the case. Perhaps this is the reason why there has been no reward here of a reward for the capture of the killers. The love-affairs of Pierson, the church-convention auditor, might offer detectives a hot clue.

Sensational allegations that he was killed by order of convention officials who were short in their accounts are discounted by reason of the fact that the financial transactions of the convention are an open book to its officials and shortages of convention officials have been previously reported to various boards without anything being done about it. Pierson's killers wanted revenge. They got it. They made Pierson suffer for whatever wrong they heid he did. Those who knew Pierson well think that there was a wrong in the case. Perhaps this is the reason why there has been no record of there of a reward for the capture of the killers. The love-affairs of Plerson, the church-convention auditor, might offer detectives a hot clue. Dangerous Reds Baltimore Communists held a May Day parade here last week. As it passed the AFRO office, the marchers consisted of seventy-nine "reds" and thirty-nine policemen. At least four hundred other policemen were stationed along the line of march, because this parade was different from the kind to which the city is accustomed. Ordinarily, Baltimore parades comprehend a new colored people only; but among the marching Communists, were some fifteen Negroes. Negroes were murdered in Baltimore is to segregate Negroes and place them in the rear. When the Communists marched, two of the three leaders were colored, others were scattered throughout, and a colored lad and a white girl marched side pyside. Baltimore, shocked by the Communist interracial dances during the winter, was still more affected by these seventy-nine paraders. Ideal.

A Lynching Epidemic "The Way to Revive Lynchings" was the subject of an editorial in the Memphis Commercial Appeal last week. In 1928, victims of mobs numbered 11. In 1929 there were 10, in five states, thus furnishing a clean bill of lynch-health for the year to 43 of the 48 states. The record of only one lynching in the first four months of 1830 may have inspired the Memphis daily or it may have been moved by the case of Martin Maryland and a prisoner in Alabama white a white woman, while outside the courtroom soldiers were stationed to prevent a mob from taking the law into its own hands. Whatever source of prompting there was, the Appeal discoursed as follows, last week: "The Way to Revive Lynchings" was the subject of an editorial in the Memphis Commercial Appeal last week.

Whatever source of prompting there was, the Appeal discoursed as follows, last week: The only possible chance for a revival of the lynching spirit lies in the passage of such federal legislation as the passage of the Civil War being made by the states and might cause an outbreak of crimes for which lynchings is invoked through conveyance of the criminals by the national government. Lynchings will be eliminated if the states are allowed to publish the laws that are to be revived. If the states are obliged to federal interference. While subscribers were reading these lines Clayton Funderberg, 17, and two other white armed with shotguns started out for the home on David Harris, "to teach that damn nigger a less son." Harris beat the three white attackers to the draw and dropped Funderberg dead in hit tracks. For this he was lynched by a mob of two hundred. This occurred at Rosedale, Mississippi, in Bolivar County, less than fifteen miles from Mound Bayou, the model Nego town. There followed in quick succession the lynching of a Negro, Allen Green in South Carolina and of John Hodas, white, at a place without talk in Congress of reviving the Dyer anti-lynching bill. In fact Mr. Dyer himself is too busy trying to defeat a colored opponent in the primary to revive his bill. The states are being permitted to handle lynchings, but everybody knows that a mob in Texas or Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida or South Carolina has as much chance of being punished for a lynching as a Ku Kluxan of being persecuted.

Florida or South Carolina has as much chance of being punished for a lynching as a Ku Kluxkus has of being permitted to parade in Canada. The truth is that agitation for a Federal anti-lynching bill has frightened the intelligent urban South; but the rural and illiterate district will have been able to do so, with that they have experienced the changing influence of public education or the strong arm of the Federal law.

A Probstarian Minister's Reply to Kelly Miller's Consent that Ministers Should Stay Out of Politics. To the Editor: 10. The bishop is a function of politics in human living. If a bishop cannot withstand the temptations of politics, how much less can the ordinary preacher. If both bishop and preacher must fall, what hope is there for them to must fall, and the ungodly to withstand the misdious politics? What is the function of politics in human living? If a bishop cannot withstand the tensions of politics, how much less can the primary secretary, the preacher and the preacher hope is there for the mere Christian and the ungodly to withstand the insidious and subtle tensions of politics? In other words, must the realism of politics forever remain forever out of reach of Christ? Such an ultimate inference from Professor Kelly Miller's release in last week's issue of AFEO-AMERICAN. If Dr. Miller will not concede that politics is to remain forever out of reach is to inaugurate the purifying power of Christ. Suppose one should wait would he not be acting with about as much wicked dom as those who await the purification by the type of articles enraged with the Christian way of conquest. Christ's method of conquest was to conquest, not "from without," which surely must have been within His power, but he could "from within," by coming into "getting into" the "going into" and "acting," within the "going into" the "jaws of death," and the grave, and entering the "lowly contrite heart." The logic seems to be inevitable, then, that the realm of politics in the Christian way, bishops, preachers and Christians of every other rank and station must go into politics and conquer that realm by the Master's method of conquest, "from within." The Bible not only teaches that there are "things" belonging to Caesar as well as "things" belonging to God, but also, that all Caesar has God has entrusted to him for man's good, and for God's story! This communication is not to be construed as in any sense, a defense of un-Christian conduct. JAMES E.

In the past twenty-five years, I have visited Chicago more than a dozen times. On each of these occasions I have inquired why one of the largest, colored weeklies in the jobs the workers are dream of money to get of another race. The best answer can be to this query is that Negroes are not capable of doing the work. My answer to this, that it is a bare face, is most accurate latex operators in the world are at work with the Washington Tribune, the Philadelphia Tribune the Kansas City Call, and the APRO HERI CAN, and what a face they have made up men and press men should like to ask the head of the Chicago parer whether he has ever interested himself in trying to find colored men to work. Despite the design of the editor of the Chicago plant and is doing a lucrative business, he is hindrance to the progress of his race. Labor unions have so fixed it that Negroes are becoming opportunities for themselves. What chance then has the Negro when members of his own race close the doors of opportunity to him? Any Negro who says that Negro cannot do more with his own race than any other man is to the world that we are an inferior people, and every Negro should shell such men with the unction and address at their command.

Senator Marks is a member of the board of directors of the hotel, and Chicago Negroes vote with sufficient memory as to bring to pass something they ask for. But the main point which should worry those seven hundred Negro waiters and maids, is WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN THEIR FATE IF THERE HAD NOT BEEN A SENATOR ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE PALMER HOUSE? There should be a cold matter-of-fact study made by these men and women, and every other group of working men and women of the group, as to why they are sometimes treated with the loss of jobs. Business men are not in the habit of making unprofitable moves if they know it, and the Negro worker must make his tenure of job more profitable than any other course the employer could take. A senator might help in some cases, but the safest thing to do is to hold your job because you are selling your labor at a cost which is most profitable to the man who buys and sells it again. Labor is Only a Commercial Thing After all, business is either buying and selling commodities or labor. A waiter sells so much waiting to the hotel proprietor which he in turn sells to his guests at a PROFIT. If it is the kind of waiting which the proprietor cannot sell at a profit and for which there is not a constant demand. THEN HAS NOT HANDLE IT PROFITLY. To make up the difference between white and colored employment created by the natural inclination of white employers to show favor to white workers, the Negro worker must deliver some extra value. This must be distinctly understood, in considering the holding of jobs. Either the colored worker must sell his labor a little cheaper, or he must deliver an extra amount, or labor of an extra quality, if he is to hold his own in industry. This may seem a brutal, unfortunate and inhuman fact, but it is a fact just the same, and we should face it. The same principle holds good when a manufacturer creates a market by selling his wares a little cheaper than his competitor, and no one regards the practice as unbusinesslike. The wise Negro workers, however, will try to deliver a little more service and efficiency, and thereby help to hold and create new markets for their labor. Economists and the Tariff Measure Few, if any, of the Negro writers seem to be worrying about the Hawley-Smoot tariff measure, although this piece of legislation will take more "rights" away from the Negro and the working man, than all the segregation in the country. Negroes, especially, should study and watch industrial and financial factors having to do with the cost of living, for besides being deprived of many of the jobs in american industry they cannot give citizens their rights they cannot escape any of the special taxes which come attached to the necessities of life. Protection is a good thing. if operated for protection of industry alone, but it may easily be abused. A study of the tariff measure as it affects Negroes would be a fine thesis for some young man or woman in our schools, and might lead to some very practical conclusions. Incidentally, more than 1000 economists in American universities have just petitioned the Senate to halt the Haitian-Smoot measure on the grounds that it will increase the cost of living, injure agriculture and the export trade of this country. The real trouble with tariff protection and measures which affect the workers of the country is that neither their benefits nor their injuries are fairly distributed. That is why some men are hungry, though working hard, at times when the country is in the most prosperous condition. Also Your "Break" May Come at Last For almost half a century Richard B. Harrison, leading man in "The Green Pastures" found no practical use for his talent as a dramatic reader except to delight the home folk. In a few months, however, this talent brought him more remuneration at $2,000 per week, than many professions bring in a lifetime. Every man or woman with a talent might not be quite so fortunate, but what individual knows that he will NOT? Whether or not you feel that you will ever have a chance to use your hobby, talent and woman with your talent, should deceive you during spare moments. There is always a chance that the "break" may come. Dixie Chef Mourned by Entire City In New York City, with ten times as large a population as New Orleans, it is doubtful if there are hawks a dozen chefs who would hold a paragraph, if that. Of the two New Orleans chefs whose deaths were chronicled, one was a Negro. As a rule the names of Negroes do not get into Southern newspapers the bearers of them get into the calaboose charged with crime. But the Negro who can cook and hundreds of them still can—honored as well as honored as a hero—had been at one time the chef of the Boston Club, the oldest organization of its kind in New Orleans, and bad at dinner for President Grant when the latter made a visit to the city. Jarreau's skin was black, but his cooking made the mouths of white men water, and the New Orleans press did neglect his memory when he passed. N.Y.N. Women in Love Keep their Heads; Men Fall Hard Women in Love Keep their Heads; Men Fall Hard Few Women Marry Men Below Them; Men, Less Forsighted, Fall Desperately in Love and Will Stoop to the Gutter. Women do not fall in love like men do; women think about it a great deal more, writes Ursula Bloom, the popular novelist in Tid Bits. From their cradle upwards girls are dreaming about their future, and their future is the love which constitutes a woman's whole existence. Girls play with doll's houses, and dream of their future home; they caress dolls and dream of their future babies. Their whole upbringing is for the one greatest career in femi- life. Therefore when a woman finds herself hurled into the lists of love, it is only what she has all along been led to expect; she is not taken by surprise. **Woman Weighs the Pros and Cons** She is matter of fact, and quite able to weigh up pros and cons; she is not to lie about the length of her feet in a compulsive tidal wave, for she has complained that tidal wave for some time, and is prepared for it. But a man does not think of love in his beheady and his boyhood. He treats it with contempt. When he sees the world he treats it as a marvelous discovery. it is the undreamt of glamour, it is the scintillating star that has suddenly glittered across his horizon, and he is definitely dazed, by it, and he will love, and soul, he will himself up to the thrill of the new-found emotion. He will fall desperately in love. Nothing Matters with Man, but Love It does not matter to him if the object of his affections is altogether undesirable. Nothing matters save the one dominant factor, that he He is willing to throw everything to the four winds of Heaven, to sacrifice well, and position himself on own self-respect for this radiant love of his. But not so woman! I could name off-hand at least twenty men who have stooped to the gutter to women with whom they happened to fall in love. I do not know of one woman who has done the same. Women marry benevolent seldom soomen beneath them. I have heard of rich widows who have married their chauffeuses, but they have only done this when their financial position was positive. They were willing to renounce their status for the alleviation of loneliness, but not their comfort for penury. Never Do for Both Sexes to Lose Heads Women are seldom so much in love that they will give up everything for the emotion. They retain their long sight, they keep their heads; they do not fall in love with the same passionate surrender as does The foretreshedness of discriminating Nature has very properly given levelheadedness to the woman. "I need their heads, and for both sexes to lose their heads, and Nature knows that She only permits a woman to love in a less vicious, more temperate emotion is tempered by wisdom, and it is, I think, a very good thing too. How many women have you met who have thrown off the shackles of convention, and are living in a cottage married to their savior to the their infatuation? Yet I have personally met a good number of men who are living in seclusion without vast means and who are suffering considerably for their sacrifice, who married to some low-born wife, who feels the emotion vividly: he is the hunter. He sees the whit-footed deer of his fatty shadow and the shaggy goat of his pros and cons of whether it is desirable that she should allow this hunter to ensure her. A woman contemplates the marital that will provide the household expedition of the comfort which a man empires in the cestus of his emotion is of considerable import to the woman whose work lies with it; she contemplates what he will be good for for their children, which there is easy or otherwise. She submerges the state of being "in" an object, not condemning her. After all, someone has not to square with a little common sense she has. The Week's Crop No Bargain "The trouble with you. Baby," complained the youngue baby, "is that you want to go buy-buy too often." She's Used to Soft Soap They called the landlady "Life-buy"; everyBODY ODOR. Compromising The right skirt length is half way between where a man wants his own wife to wear 'em and where he wants other women to wear 'em. **We'll Never Tell** A girl used to always remember the first man who ever kissed her. Now she can't even remember who kissed her last--last night. If He Did. He's Reformed One of the most pitiful cases or record is that of the illiterate "red" who walked into an employment agency thinking it was the Salvation Army. And Find Gum on the Free List? If Will Rogers were in Congress probably more people would read the Congressional Record. **ONE WAY TO COLLECT** I is a friend, a dear old friend. This I do declare. AfricansSay: "Africans have much in common with us as wit and wisdom expressed in their language, and they are away from the notion that they are in an inferior and barbaric state. In more than one sense, we Americans are less civilized and barbaric than we Europeans." The Nation's Biggest All-Negro Weekly The Proofreader Talks A few days ago a fellow worker cited me to the third verse of the 14th chapter of Matthew in which it is stated that John the Baptist was put in "prison for Herodias' sake," and asked him to possess in his phrase was correct. Inferentially, of course, behind the question was the further question: 'Isn't the fact that the phrase is in the Bible conclusive as to its correctness?' So I ask Answer: No. The language in the English Bible is not regarded as without fault grammatically. Its worth and authority lies in other directions. Granting that its grammar was perfect at the time of the translation of the Authorized Version (which is the version in common use), over three hundred years ago, it be asking too much to inscribe on following its grammar and its diction. No one would now write, "Our Father which art in Heaven." Nor would we tolerate: "What man is there? God? 7:9" or "Who say ye that I am?" (Matt. 18:18). Many other variations from modern practices could be cited. However, correctness in grammar is not a matter of rigid, explicit law or rule. Good grammar, like good manners, is merely that which we think the practice of those who know best. More than that, or perhaps because of that, grammarians do not agree as to what is and what is not the acceptor of the "s" after the apostrophe when used in the possessive case singular number. I have yet to find two grammars or style books that agree as to the exceptional cases in which it may At best, the omission is merely permissible—for so-called euphony's sake No grammar, so far as I know would hold it to be WRONG to add the "s, which is of course according the rule My advice is to follow the rule, then you are not only safe but can be assured of the support of those books periodicals and newspapers which are admittedly of the higher class. Addie Dickerson Really Knows Her Material Addie Dickerson Really Knows Her Material So says Nannie Burroughs, who Adds that Philadelphia's Thirtieth Ward Woman-Candidate for the Legislature is a Smaller Edition Ruth McCormick. By NANNIE H. BURROUGHS The ballot should be used to get better schools, good streets, bridges, parks, hospitals, clinics, police protection and an equitable distribution of opportunities of every kind that come under city or state administration. The Negro must stop throwing away his ballot by voting men into public office, from Negro districts, from public works to companies that do mechanicals. Then sit in city councils and state legislatures and vote all of the jobs on public works to companies that do mechanicals. No, not even on the public works in Negro districts. Campaign salve and election day sop are not adequate. Negros must breed by the sweat of their brow. three hundred sixty-five days to the year. A silent, short-sighted Negro is not a self-centered public office than a self-centered white man. The heaviest Negro vote in the city of Philadelphia is in the 30th ward. Eighty-five per cent of the voters are Negroes. They have a representation of two or three appointments in the city government. That is good as far as it goes, but it does not go far enough. No voting goes far enough that does not reach and meet the economic needs of the masses of the cast, the most votes. There are more Negroes out of employment in the thirtieth ward than in any other ward in the city of Philadelphia. All of these cannot employment, but public construction, but five per cent of all work skilled and unskilled, on public constructions in that district, should go to Negroes. The Negro must insist on getting out of politics more than a few positions for leaders. We are to death or die in the hands of this payer, leaders game in politics. We want positions for the leaders and jobs on public constructions for laborers. To be high time that the leaders want getting something more than save for their followers. Economic justice in the distribution of jobs on public constructions is the only work that matters. Think of Negro voters going unemployed in their own districts white laborers are at work on public constructions in the same districts, politicians getting Negro votes and then giving the masses nothing in return but hot air (stones) for bread. Addie Dickerson a Ruth McCormick Addie W. Dickerson has thrown her bonnet in the ring in the thirteenth ward in the city of Philadelphia looks pretty good. Whitman Dickerson a Ruth McCormick. She isn't running because she is a woman; she is running in spite of that handicap and believe me, like Ruth McCormick. Addie Dickerson is fit to She has that kind of mental equipment and moral stamina that carries with it the keenest sense of the mendous value of service for all not a public servant a public servant above the incidentals of sex and race and gives to a constituency unbased, broad, progressive, and constructive program of service. What is no place for puttin' politicians. Every member of the legislature has a rubber stamp on his desk, therefore. Negroes should not send rubber stamp leaders to cupy seats in the legislature. They will be able statesmen who can fill the seats First Woman, Exhibit "A" Addie Dickerson knows her "material" Negro woman who sits in the legislature of Pennsylvania will be "Exhibit A" just as the first woman who fills her seat in the Senate will be "Exhibit A" in that body. The voters of Pennsylvania will be afraid. Addie Dickerson will be an "Exhibit A" at Harrisburg in the legislature as Ruth McCormick will be an "Exhibit A" when you want to sell your goods always send a good sample. What We Already Know Properly, men are married man, rightly places the end of the unemployment period sometime in the spring when the spring house cleaning period. Methodist Church Slump Charged to Political Parsons Most of M:insterial Dabblers in Politics Have Been (A.M.E.) Methodists, Whose Denomination Hasn't Grown an Inch in Forty Years, Three A.M.E. Clerics on the Hawkins Committee. By KELLY MILLER In scanning the list of the membership of the newly organized Negro Republican League, sponsored by Dr John R. Hawkins, I find the names of five ministers of the gospel. My release last week was devoted to the topic-"Should the Minister Dabble in Politics?" The clerical reinforcement of the Republican League of Dr Hawkins illustrates my position with striking timeliness. One wonders what great moral issues are at stake that these men of God should divide their time and energies between the advancement of the Republican Party and the promotion of the Kingdom of God. Does the Grand Old Party, in the coming campaign, stand for any overshadowing moral principle that justifies the priest of religion in laying aside his sacredotal robe for political purposes? When Bishop James Cannon, white of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, engaged in the last campaign, it was for the declared purpose of saving the nation from destruction by the Demon of strong drink. If the national Negro party will pledge itself to support only those candidates for Congress who stand for the strict enforcement of the prohibition law, I can see why the clergy of the race should rush to its support. But if they are merely playing the same old game in the same old way, then the moral judgment of the Christian Church will rise up and condemn them. There cannot be alleged the excuse that laymen cannot be found equally as well qualified to conduct the political affairs of the race as the clerical continuity which in, this instance, at least seems to be playing a second fiddle. The wet and dry issue is threatening the moral life of the nation. The Negro is the easiest victim. It is hard to see how the ministry of the race can stand aloof by, and look on this holocaust of destruction with indifference. All other issues now before the nation sink into moral insignificance compared with law or laziness. If the Republican Party were devoted to the standard of human rights as it used to be, this clerical zeal would be understandable. But the experience of the past two years leaves us somewhat less confident that the moral rights issue is trending in the mind of the G.O.P. It is interesting to analyze the list of clerics in Mr. Hawkins's newly organized league. It seems to be a league of Methodists, rather than a league of ministers. Among the list, I notice only one Baptist and he comes from the District of Columbia where there is no vote. Three of the others belong to the AME Church and to the white M. E. Church. The AME Zion connection is without; representation, as is also the Colored M. E. denomination. The Baptists constitute three-fourths of the Negro church membership, but have only one-fifth of the ministerial representation. When the labor is ended and the harvest time arrives, will the spoils of office be distributed in similar proportion? Or perhaps Methodists ministers make better politicians than their Baptist conferres. Methodists Haven't Grown One Inch It is a matter of common observation that the Negro Methodist churches have scarcely grown one inch in the past forty years; while the Baptists have thriven like David's bay tree. Most of the ministerial dabblers in politics have been Methodists. The A.M.E. variety of Methodists have been sinners—if you call it that and all the rest who dwelt at Jerusalem. This great Negro denomination has had perhaps the smallest increment of growth. One wonders whether there is any connection between their preness to politics and this stationary or retrograde tendency. Two of the Negro Methodist churches are now on the eve of meringing into one gigantic religious body. This is a significant move toward the sphere of Christian enveloper. It is hoped that this union will not only result in numerical augmentation, but in total regeneration. The waning influence of the church in the life of the race has calamitous significance. If the amaka-tamad leadership of this new religious body will devote itself with singleness of moral and spiritual purpose to the betterment of the race, it is easy to prohesse a grand and glorious future. But if the politically ambitious leaders utilize this more perfect union merely to aggrandize their political fortune, then the more painful the union, the more misplaced the plight of the church and the race. I do just what Dr. Hawkins newly organized national Neeray leagues to accomplish, but whatever its objective, I wish it well. For the clerical contingent, I would utter this word of caution—"Watch your spiritual steps." BIRTHDAYS The AFRO takes off its hat this week to the following nomenies who are soon to be happy.

The talking films have thrown a large number of French musicians on the band the Union of Musicians think that natives should have the preference, when it comes to getting a job. Must Get Two Permits To become a member of the Union, foreign musicians must first have a permit to live in the country. When this is obtained they must then go to the Minister of Labor and secure a permit. These have been had that they will be admitted into the Union. Recently a well-known colored musician was forced to return to America because he could not obtain a permit, and just now there is a sandal owned by who has lived here long time.

It was the manager's stenographer who had made the deal, and the manager withheld her salary until she had paid her. The thieves went to the Musicians Union, and made a complaint. Now the matter is being investigated by the police. Prefer Negro Music Negro musicians are preferred to white ones by tourists and other frequenters of night-clubs.

Newton strangely denies that it was the girl's family that put up the bill for the new cabaret he is to open at 25 rue Fontaine. "It is financed by myself," he declared. "It is my show, my ideas, and I brought performers with me from New York." Still Loves Wifie As to his wife he says that he still loves her, and that nobody can buy that love from him.

AMOS AND ANDY SUED BY MILLER AND LYLES Negro Comedians Say They Coined Expressions "Regusted" and "Sho-Sho" SEEK INJUNCTION Claim Words were "Patented" and are Their Property NEW YORK. — Following close upon the discovery that the "Miller and Lyles" team, playing in Shuffle Along of 1830" at Werba's Flatbush Theatre, two weeks ago, were not the original comedians by that name, comes the news that the original Miller and Lyles team has instituted proceedings against the Company and Amos and Andy, comedians who broadcast their chain's network. It is understood that the suit is filed for the illegal use of words "patented and the property of Miller and Lyles" now used in the broadcasting of the popular team of "Amos and Andy." Mr. Cohen has asked for an injunction restraining the white comedians from using the comedians unless they pay a large sum to the owners of the copyrighted material. Other rumors have it that this matter, which makes Amos and Andy the most popular radio team of to-day, was written for another colored team and by a team of comfortable income as a result. Press releases on "Amos and Andy" state that the material they use is original with them. It was Walter Winchell of the "Mirror" who first called attention to the fact that Amos and Andy were using the same names and Lyles. As a result, a general flurry in the theatrical world followed.

A Brown Seat in the Theatre There's a show in town causing quite a stir. So I hurried down the room, a ticket The show is to last through this week, and next. So I asked for a ticket for a week from today. Through a little hole in a narrow window. I must have a green cardboard for a seat in the last row in the gallery. Now, I know that because I'm brown, though I be wealthy as Crosus, must have a gallery. Butathy, a week ahead I must be content with a seat. I have last row of a large gallery. I could not see. I so mildly protested. and please be requested a seat bit nearer the front of the gallery. But the blushing ticket-seller had not another seat for any day. or night. save one on the last row. Not another seat had he —worn a brown girl. But one of my white brothers rushed in to change a gallery seat from which he could not see. And I stood and sat him pleased with a bitter seat. So I thought I had been mistaken. And we approached the thaw window, and called in again for another seat for any performance. But it was ticket-seller, had not another seat. save a little brown seat, in the last row. in the gallery. Not another seat, for me—a brown girl. Now the last row must be occupied from there, one can see, and hear. But I still can't see why there no seat the brown seat,-for me. Well, I handed the red-faced gentleman his shiny green cardboard and shut up my money in my purse. I can still take a train, or drive my car to place where I can buy my money's worth in a ticket, in my my brown face. And 'til that time, they still take brown money for good books. And they still let me down feet walk on the good-smelling Spring Earth. And brown eyes can feast on blue skies and crystal stars. VASHTI C.

Out in Hollywood, my spies report, good scenarios are being dumped into the theater, and their forget to include a theme song. The hero of the picture is just about to be shot, when out of almost nowhere, the plantive notes of the Fireman, Save the Ship, seeing that, and the firing squad members are so moved that they chunk their muskets into the nearest canal that they can find. Or mayhaps, the scene is a cold, grey prison, where our hero is being held, and he iron bars, lifts up his rich barricade voice in the heart-tearing strains of "The Prisoner's Song," and the warden, tears streaming down his hardened face, passes the cell keys through the bars. And the hero strides out to breathe once more the air of a free world. If this is good for the swackies, if it seems that it should be good for the singer, write yourself a little theme song, then; or if you'd rather not, there are hundreds of hungry song writers waiting for you. Sing it when it doesn't work, then that and if it doesn't work, then that you're a bum singer.

Theatres Al Brown and Kid Chocolate Set Harlem Styles for Men Male Attire Follows Feminine Lines. Flowing Coats, High Belts and Tams Tickle Observers on Seventh Avenue. By RALPH MATTHEWS NEW YORK. — No longer do the handsome matine idols of the stage set the fashions for men of Harlem as they did a few years back, this honor having been annexed by the boxing profession. Kid Chocolate and Al Brown, neither of whom are accredited with being two of the best dressed men in the neighborhood. Tallier shops, hat, shoe and haberdashery establishments decorate their windows with pictures of the fistcuff boys togged out in their particular brands. This apparently meant a product by the leader of fashion. To be mistaken for either or the two is considered an honor. claiming that he was a label on their slave-owning ancestry. Yet as the film would be an expensive production the company couldn't afford to the South as a part of the market. They finally solved the problem by making Legree a Northern. In the first place, they won a victory over won the Civil War, was not so sensitive about the dissensions of that period. Moreover, a Northern slave-driver had ascribed a Northern type, but as a freak exception. And here is the amusing detail: At first, the native of Rhode Island. Not that they had any grudge against our smallest state! But simply because, since it is the native of Rhode Island, people who might think their toes were being trod on. But evidently someone tipped them off that Everything but Sashes Like fashions of women, male attire has this season taken on very drastic changes. Top coats are gownlike, reaching almost to the ground with belts so large that they resemble sashes and are cut in many fancy and original styles in accordance with women's individual tastes. Even hats do not escape the fashion-maker's attention. No longer is the hat buyer's only problem: Shalu I wear a hat or a fedora or a shoulder? positively exact, the hat should not be more than the inch wide and not be more than the color of the suit. Tans are also worn. Explaining why tailors created such grotesque attire for males, on them explained that the long coats and fancy belts were the fealous because they were wearing long skirts. "Hot Chocolates" Connie's "Hot Chocolates," which simmered at the Hudson Theatre on Broadway last season, graced the boards at the LaFayette on Seventh Avenue at popular prices the past fortnight. Harlemites, though only a jump from the Great White Way, got their first glimpse of the musical confection six months after it had played every tank town in the Colored show. The theater does not do more than support neither do the higher priced night clubs located in Harlem itself. Two wiser crackers were discussing the show in front of the stage during the mother day. "Hot Chocolates" declared one, that "the tobacco people got the slogan 'Reach for a Lucky instead of a Sweet.'" Uncle Tom Was who played the part of Uncle Tom in the film version of "Uncle Tom's Cabin," can be almost any night hob-bobbing with newspaper men and actors on Seventh Avenue. A tall porch gentleman, who is also the character he portrays on the screen. Motion picture producers have many problems besides finding typical characters. M. Love reveals. According to a moving picture author, When "Uncle Tom's Cabin" was, to be filmed, the original story provided the "villain" in the person of Simon Legrete, the cruel overseer. Mrs. Stove writing before the Stowe, had made Legrete a Clinton, which was then the natural thing to do. But for the producer of the screen version the matter was not so simple.

BETTER THAN EVER BATONSVILLE RY CLUB In Greenwood Electric Park Sunday, May 12th BROUGHOUT THE SEASON MANAGEMENT MARKING SPACE Dance Halls Dance Halls BY LEVI H. JOLLEY Eastern Daylight Saving Time. The next program will come to you over the AFRO-AMERICAN circulation system. HELLO, FELLOW DIAL TWISTER: This is L. H. Jolley, announcing for the Dance Hour, which comes to you every Friday over Station AFRO, "the Voice of News" in Baltimore, and read the pages thoroughly. If you do not, you may miss many items of great interest and civic value. Received a letter from Miss Mabel Wissel, who was visiting. "Is it true that waltzing, fox-trotting and other dances are not executed the same in other cities as they are in Baltimore?" Miss Vessels, three weeks ago we waltzing is done the same in every section of the country, but there are many other dances executed differently. Thanks for the letter. It shows that you have read our bunko Another letter from Mrs. Katie Matthews, 1111 Division Street: "Please name the four dance programs in the out-of-town attractions and the feature dances in the city." Madam, at the present there is only one person who is responsible for the out-of-town orchestras applied to the Madison, Dixon, director of Dixon's Wild-Cat Orchestra. The other three who are responsible for local "hops" are Big Bill Gamby, Bob Matthews and Ernest Winslow. Bill Brady, 519 Hoffman Street, writes asking for the names of Baltimore's five best female dancers. For ordinary dancing, consisting of waltzing, foxooting and the Mr. Kramer, the Rich and Rich Ann Allor. For the "Wampus," I would choose Miss Ralfi, for eccentric dancing Miss Audrey, for the cause-feel as though, for all-round, Mrs Helen Hutchins, would fill the bill. That was the last of the weekly letters. We thank the senders and hope that more fun will follow. That ends the first part of the weekly line of hokum that comes to the "listeners" over the circulation system of the AFRO-AMERICAN every Friday at the same hour. We listen to the recordings made especially for this station, to be sent from Washington. Hope to have it for you by next week. Well, folks, the great Fletcher Henderson and his recording gang, were on hand to strut their stuff at the New Albert Auditorium last week. He claimed by the Old Master press agents as being the greatest drummer alive, was fairly "hot." He was good, but one would expect more by the publicity given him. No only could beat the mischief out of that big bass drum. The patrons still love to hear the Old Master, as Fletcher is called by many, plunk the ivories and hear his subjects play tunes on saxophones, corns and most weird ones from the trombone. The first thing that came into my mind while they were earning their prizes, their play, the following selection was by that title. Few persons were able to keep still while the gang was letting out their wails. Even the ticket-taker was two-stopping of the car boards. The soft drink dispenser was wampusing on the "spot," the clockroom girl was wiggling her shoulder that was, all of her body that was visible. But the patrons were crowding the dance floor proper, and there were not many inches of room in the whole place to spare. The wrestlers, or rather those who paid to dance, were not sure of comfort. The body on the orchestra stand were wet with their own water, and by that, I deducted that everybody was having a good time. Now, because there were 1800 paid admissions. Every Thursday night, there is a floor show and dance at the New Pride of Baltimore Hall. This little theater is designed to be a feature seto during the week. The patrons surely enjoy themselves. To furnish the musical strains, they have the old Landon's Cabaret Orchestra that made many an old banding wife. This orchestra is hot and the basement of the Elks' Hall, where the dance is held, is just right for such affairs. If you miss it one week, you can attend a treat. For the show itself is worth the price of admission. Friday nights, you can find an enjoyable affair at any of the halls with individual clubs acting as hosts or performers. On Saturday evening Ike Dixon and his orchestra broadcast over the radio, and then appear at the Elks' Hall, McMeechen and Madison Ave. A person—to dispense some of their music. Down at the Odd Fellows' Hall, the dance of the Moderns, with the Ambassadors disseminating the jazz, as only they can, Gammy, with the favors hold forth. Then at midnight, Sunday, Bob Matthews gathers his Krazy Kats together and they start on the way path and stay on that path until 3:30. Then they go to the Owls and other night lodges, and even individuals, attend regularly. On Wednesday nights, the Regular Fellows hold their Collegiate Hop at the Penn Hotel. Harold Steptau and he the satisfaction of his music out to the dance of the audience. The dance is really the feature hop for the youngsters, and how they attend. There are those who take it too seriously and not miss one of the Wednesday night classes for a bag of money. Signing off—till next week. Crisis Exposes U.S. Architectural Lie The Crisis, the official organ of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, exposed the attempt of American publishers of "America" to discriminate against Negro architects in a prize contest conducted by an art school in Paris. The magazine announced that the country, an American citizens of the white race, a condition which is fixed by the French government for the Fontainebleau School. French government officials denied the contest, and it was not in accord with the French policy. N.J. School Band Wins The cadet band of the Bordentown Manual Training School won the first place in its group in the State High School Band Contest held under the auspices of the New Jersey Music Supervisors' Association at New Brunswick, N.

Finally the nobleman told him if he did not keep his advice the peasant made him the matter worth while, said it is surprise when the king, he ordered the man brought before in related his story of the visit he could have spoken to, he been the most sceptical of assembling as the peasant was a self, had had on the same night concluded, "the phantom it has bid me find you and you it is a lightning change in the turn to great wrath. It was peasant. It was court intrigue make public his marriage, a told it to this peasant, and if the King lifted his stick to the knees implored: "Sire, if you the spectre I saw told me to super More." Greater great change in the hand of the peasant the man was conducted on him, where nevertheless like a little cat, making a寐 drawers; sometimes on one.

Applied the King, "you make me will have a child, bizarre, spoke to him and told him a secret that, was to be whispered only in the King's ear. Although Marshal Duras questioned him in many different ways, the sly old fellow was obdurate. Finally the nobleman losing all patience, drove him away, and told him if he did not keep still he'd be clapped in prison. After that bit of advice the peasant made himself scarce. Marshal Duras, not thinking the matter worth while, said nothing about it to the king. But what was his surprise when the king, himself, mentioned it a few days later, and ordered the man brought before him. The peasant again related his story of the vision on which the King became so agitated that he could hardly speak. Louis was very stitious, but even had he been healed, he would have had cause for assent as well as the peasant was relating, detail for de- "Sire" the peasant concluded, "the phantom has appeared to me again. Twice, now, it has bid me find you and tell you to publish your marriage. This there was a lightning change in the King. His superstition and fear had suddenly turned to great wrath. It was all clear to him now, this "dream" of the peasant. It was court intrigue. A certain clan had been urging him to make public his marriage, and hearing of his dream, some one had told it to this peasant, and had sent the peasant to him. Rising to his feet the King lifted his stick to strike the man, but the latter falling on his knees implored: "Sire, if you doubt me, I can give you intellible proof. You saw I told me to speak to you in the name of Moret." Again there was another great change in the King. He became as pale as a corpse and seizing the hand of the peasant, imposed silence on him. That same evening the man was taken to the luxurious house on him, but where nevertheless he was held a pris- Twenty years before, the King of Dahomey had sent to the Queen, by the Grand Admiral of France, the present of a little Negro dwarf. The Queen was very much attached to the Negro. He could now be seen on the carpet playing like a little cat, making somersaults, or mounting on tables and bureau drawers; sometimes on the sofa and even on the floor. the knees He was dressed after the manner of his native Africa, and wore rich bracelets, armlets, a string of precious stones, his turban was magnificent, and Mme. de Maintenon gave him a superb aigrette of rubies and clawards. This is how it happens that Mignard and the other painters of the time placed Negroes in all their great portraits; it was a mode, a frenzy which did not last after the accident of which the misadventure of the Queen inimitable in that time. It happened that the Queen was about to become a mother when she became inquiet and said all the time: "I no longer recognize myself. I experience strange disgusts and caprices such as never happened before. If I were to do as I wanted to, I would be cutting someone that look like my little Negro, and living birds like him." "Ah, Madame," replied the King, "you make me shiver. Forget your foolish fancies or you will have a child, bizarre, ridiculous and against nature." Queen's Child Born Black; Hidden in a Convent The King's predictions were fulfilled. There was born to her some time later a pretty little girl "black from head to foot." The doctors were of the prelates was opposed to baptizing her, and another would consent only under condition.

Historians Differ as to Paternity of Black Nun "It is said that she was the daughter, her color had caused her to be hudden, to be published that the Queen had the people of the Court believe this. B mystery." Voltaire was of the opinion that the King by a Negro woman Speaking (Vol. XVI of the Century of the Age) had loved and with good reason Michele is his mother. She was very daid the king. The King gave her a dot of the convent. The belief that she was of which the Mother Superior complained Voltaire adds that he visited the convent as accompanied by the Queen. Guarmina says, "had a right to visit the convent." But were the Black Nun the illegitimate black queen the queen and her interest in affection towards her? "Would the Queen, Marie-Theresa, the Dess of Bourgogne, have shown the same King had other adulterine children. Both the King and Queen: Louise-Marie." Touchard LaFosse, French historian, of the reign of Louis XI, says in "Oelie" "Marie-Theresa died at the age of stainless reputation of the Queen with girl with the most mysterious mystery in the passes for the illegitimate daughter of the." "Let us record here what is generally child. Duquesne had given to the Queen was very pleasing in his manners, and in which most of her time was passed.

"It is said that she was the daughter of the king and the Queen, that her color had caused her to be hidden there, and after her appearance, to be published that the Queen had had a mis-carrage. Many of the people of the Court believe this. But whatever it be, it remains a mystery Voltaire was of the opinion that the Black Nun was the daughter of the King by a Negro woman that the Children of children he said was a Negro woman of the Century of Louis XIV*: of Voltaire adds that he visited the convent himself and saw her. He was accompanied by M. de Gaumartin, treasurer of France; who, he says, "had a right to visit the convent." But were the Black Nun the legitimate daughter of the King by a black woman who had cared for her children have shown so much interest and affection towards her? As Le Notre, historian, asks; "Would the Queen, Marie-Theresa, the Dauphin, the Duke and the Duchess of Bourgogne, have shown the same attachment to her?" Besetten the King had other adulterine; further, she bore the names of both the King and adulterine Louise-Marie. "Touchain, a French historian, who wrote an intimate account of the reign of Louis XIV, says in 'Oel-de-Boeur': "Marie-Theresa died at the age of forty-five. . . . How reconcile the stainless reputation of this Queen with the existence of a little Negro girl reared in the greatest mystery in the convent of Moret, and which passes for the illegitimate daughter of Marie-Theresa." "Let us record here what is generally said about the birth of this child. Duquesne was born at a young Negro, named Nabo, who was in his manners, and amused Her Majesty in the solitude in which most of her time was passed. When this African learns to speak French his chatter was funny, naive, and full to vivacity; he finished, is said, by pleasing the queen so much that her virtue could not protect her from yielding to a weakness that the finest gentleman in Christ tenured. "Nabo died suddenly, and soon after, Her Majesty gave birth to a girl so black that Dr. Felix thought it his duty to say that it had been born dead. The black child was sent to the nuns of Moret who reared it in ignorance of its origin. Dwarf "Looked" at the Queen; "A Penetrating Look," said Louis "It is said with assurance that the Queen, in dying, revealed the existence of the child to the King.

In conclusion there is no doubt that Queen, Mile. de Montpensier, Duchess King, who kept a diary, says in her "Men to an eight-months' old girl that resembles the Queen, who was born away when she became pregnant.

That it would be difficult for me to say, but of this much I am positive: a young Negro lived with the Queen; a Negro baby girl was sent to Morret soon after Queen's confinement; Bontemps sent her a large sum of money; a coral necklace. In conclusion there is no doubt that a black child was born to the Queen, Mile. de Montpensier, Duchess of Orleans, and cousin of the King, who kept a diary, says in her "Memoirs," that the Queen to an eight-months-old, Nedra, was the fact that the Negro dwarf under her eyes, and that the dwarf had been taken away when she became pregnant "but it was too late." Modern science has demonstrated the impossibility of a malnutrition and a white person producing a child darker in color than the darker of the two parents. Further evidence, a black dwarf was the initial victim of the selected Queen. made him suspicious. too, too was mysterious, as well as the Queen's fear that she was going to have a black child.

He adds: "that also certain is the marrage for the innocent woman, the world against her will, and conder petal confinement." It represents a black woman with bright eyes, a fleshy nose; rather thick lips, and a long chin. The upper part of her body is covered in hair, while around her neck is a scapularia of the cloistered order of the 17th Century. It is easy to see that her blackness is exaggerated in the picture. There are still extant species. "What cannot be doubted," says Le Notre, "is the existence and the perfect authenticity of the picture that the Library of St. Genève possesses. It was already celebrated in the 17th Century, and the St. Genèveans showed it, with discretion. It is true, as one of the most precious presents. He adds: "What is also certain is that life was a long and unhappy martyrdom for this innocent woman, thus to see herself separated from the world against her will, and condemned from her infancy to perpetual conflagration."

HAMPTON CHOIR AT WESTMINSTER ABBEY HAMPTON CHOIR AT WESTMINSTER ABBEY Virginians Sing Spirituals in Historic Shrine Before Congregation of 3,000 HONOR LIVINGSTON Singers Receive 45-Minute Ovation at Theatre LONDON—Three thousand persons, seated in Westminster Abbey, heard the Hampton Institute choir of 40 voices, in a program of spirituals, here Sunday at the afternoon service. It was the first time that spirituals had ever been heard in this historic shrine, and the singers included in their program "Don't Be Weary Traveller," the composition with which Dr. R.

The singers, who were warmly welcomed by the choir, were a place of honor in the chior stalls. Receives 45-Minute Ovation The choir received a warm reception by a staid but exceedingly small British audience in their first form in European concerts in their field at Queen's Hall in St. Paul's Church. So great was the demonstration that the singers were detained on the stage more than forty-five minutes after the conclusion of their regular program. From the moment of their disemarkation the Endurance Village School have been in constant demand. On board the De Grasse they sang every time they were asked and since coming ashore have followed the same policy. Phonograph Disc Sales Boom Here Phonograph Disc Sales Boom Here Far from being pushed in the back- ground by the increasing popularity of the Internet, booming, according to reports of music dealers in this city. Phonograph record sales throughout the country, which were 15,000,000 more in 1920 than in 1922, have increased substantially increase when figures are compiled this year, they say. Part of the increase in disco sales here is ascribed to the popularity of the "new hit-of-the-week" this territory recently, and which sells from newstands at fifteen cents each. So great was the interest in the new product, which is more durable than the ordinary record, and which can be stored in a cooler. That the entire supply allotted to newdealers here was sold out the newseller was announced. Music dealers report the new records greatly stimulated the sale of the standard, more expensive records after the supply of the new discs had been expended. Newstands and fruit dealers who are making their initial venture into the music business are enthusiastic, and only a few hours to become firmly established as music dealers here. Seventy thousand of the new discs they produce, it takes to make 700 ordinary records, they point out, while the tone qualities of durium, of which the record makes them popular with music lovers. Durium is the discovery of Dr. . al T. Beans, professor of chemistry at Columbia University, and allows them to display at the speed of a press. It is both durable and flexible, and so tough that a thin film of it can be used to cover the stage. One new record is released each week featuring the most popular dance hit as chosen by a music jury consisting of the Grammy Award-winning Eddie Cantor and Vincent Lopez.

Baltimore will see something unusual when Miss Nannie Burrows, "When Truth Gets a Hearing" at the Bethel A.M.E. Church, Monday night, May 12. Critics who have seen the performance are loud in their praise. Dr. W. E. B. DuBois came down from New York to see the play when it was presented in Philadelphia. He wrote Miss Burroughs the next day and said. He was such a crowd last night that I did not try to get to see you. I thank you for the opportunity of seeing your pageant. I was astonished and gratified to note the way gripped and interested the audience. No Mealy Mouth Writing under "As In a Looking Glass" in the Washington Eagle, Fri. 10am, the New York Times, Unbunar Nelson said of the pageant: "Nannie Burroughs's pageant "When Truth Gets a Hearing, played by the actors in the Theatre in Philadelphia on last Thursday night, it was mighty well done. The girls spoke clearly and confidently, but enunciation and articulation that was a delight to the ear. The acting was natural and graceful, and the singing was excellent. Too Much Applause "We could have wished that the audience were less enthusiastic, for often they voiced their approval so vigorously and whole-heartedly that some of the lines were lost, especially the very well done Labor Chorus that it gave Dett's 'Music in the Mine.' "The story of the progress of the race, and all the 'Race Hokum' was so well presented that even the most saturated ones of it forgot to be aware of the added interest in the fresh viewpoint of the young women of Miss Burroughs's school." Dr. Carter G. Woodson said: "The pageant is a clever dramatization which, because of its humor together with its serious appeal, the dramatization of the history of the Negro."

CHAPTER X Wolf sensed that Rod was about to leap at him. He brought his gun up on a level with the vault's stomach. On his face there was an expression dramatic instant the door of the bathroom opened, and a heavily built man stepped out of it, and between Wolf and Rod before he nodded. As this unexpected interference Wolf seked his hand out of his pocket and wheeling on his heel, strode hastily down the hall. Rod was not fazed, and seemed after him curiously, "What's eatin' on that bird?" he asked Rod. Rod sighed in great relief, "I think that he was a trifle angry about someone down the hall, and facelessly. His questioner shook his head as though he thought both Rod and Wolf were crazy, and went stamping down the couch. Rod be back to the prohibition agent's office, or should he go on downstairs in the elevator? He shrugged his shoulder and walked to the elevator. As he left the building he watched closely for Wolf, but his enlightened disappeared. As Rod walked along, he must diving down to see what he should do. Seemingly he had done all in his effort to eliminate his enemy. If he could Saturday night was success, Wolf would be deeper than even he figured. With Wolf, safely in jail, Alderman Durant would be freed from the uncleance alliance, and Lyla would be moved to marry Rod. As he thought of the girl his heart came into being, he had been walk-arried, but now his steps quickened, Cutting across the waffle. With him, a sudden resolve he came into being. He had been walk-arried, but now his steps quickened, Cutting across the waffle. He found Kling alone, except to his stenographer in the outer room. Knowing Rod, the girl waved him into his manager's sanctum with a friendly smile. He came from the work before him. "Hello there, Cowboy," he called; a though he had not seen Rod for several days. "What's on your mind, kid?" I'd drop by and say hello. Rod responded grimming. WANTS A CAR "His manager snorted. 'Yeah, I know all about that. But I bet you to do one it's a touch.'" He nodded. "You're right, Mr. King." He admitted. "It is a touch-if you were willing to let me have what I want." "Way, sure. any amount, Kid." He chimed him heartily. "How much you need?" "How much does a good car cost?" Rod asked. "Kling whistled. 'Already he's crazy right-fight yet!' I thought you was steady-headed than that. Cowboy be added, a little reproach- Oh I'm not crazy for a car, but needing to need one soon after the fight. I'm going to get married. I think, and I want to drive back out to Montana with him, and then right he says he's going to get married.' Kling exclaimed, pretending to tear at his hair. "What will I do with the boy. He's the fights one of the toughest boys in the country, and he isn't even thinking about it." "Oh, I'm thinking about it, all right.' Rod disagreed. "If I could make me an officer, I would do." "Do you just have to have a car?" Klung demanded. "I'd like one very much," Rod per- bished. "Oh well," Kling sighed. "I've got brother in the auto business. I'll call him and see what we can do." BOD. KLING'S IDOL He called a number, and after a short conversation, turned back to the mouth. "Well, if you got to have a car, my brother will fix you up. His pla- is on. It costs too much money. But don't spend too much money, Cowboy," he warned, as Rod took the slip of paper eagerly. In spite of the scolding words, Kling's tone was hearty, even affectionate. "Thanks, Chief." Rod cried, starting toward the door. "I'll see you at the morning." Kiwi stared at the door through which his bovier had made his exit. Maybe I'm getting to be a silly old boy he mused, "but I think that's the finest boy I ever knew. . ." II At the automobile showroom Kiwi's brother met Rod at the door N THE first All-Negro Weekly DARK thing depending upon has landed a blow. with extended hand. "Glad to meet you, Mr. Herrick!" he exclaimed as they shook hands. "My brother has been telling me all about you. Come Rod. experi that the re he Ka ter h On the showroom floor were many gleaming new chairs, and I received with scant interest, King's rather noticed this. "Don't you want to look at these chairs?" "But my brother said that you should have any kind of car you wanted, even my most expensive model," th man exposulated. HIS FIRST CAP "Haven't you any used ones?" Rod persisted. "Surir. Right this way. Cowboy. Pair me up. Take him back into the used car showroom. Almost at once his eye lighted on a long, low swung, gray roadster which stood at the one side of the place. "How much for that? he asked, inquisitively. "Let's see—that's a Stutz—a special built job about a year old. I'll make it to you. since you my brother's friend, for eight hundred." In good shape, in good condition. "Perfect. and still do ninety, too." After a few minutes of inspection, the youth expressed his satisfaction with the car. Then, after the for-mallations of simmering, the toy filled, and with a feeling of ownership, drove it home. He was tempted to drive over to Lyla to show it to her, but this did not accord with her need which had to purchase it. Rod wrestled with the temptation to call the girl and tell her what he had done in the way of getting rid of their enemy Wolf, but decided that it would be better that he knew that Wolf was really behind —Something might go wrong —Wolf might not be there. A thousand things could happen. III The few days that intervened before the fight, fied rapidly. Each day Rod ma: his appearance at the gym, going through light training before large crowds of eager spectators, who watched as the time when the bout approached. UNEASY ABOUT LYLA Glad in his silk tights, he added much to the color and mystery that the newspaper stories had thrown around him. He found himself in a room with a wall of irritable as the day approached, but Kling only rubbed his hands. Nervousness and irritability. Kling said, were only natural evidences of a state of tenure, and good for anyighter before his fight. Rod, however, had a miserable time to Lily did not call him, and since, he kept his word to himself. He awakened each morning with a sense of expectancy which the day failed to satisfy. On Saturday morning came. The newspapers were full of the impending bout between Rod and Lato, almost to the exclusion of what was intended to be the major attraction—the between the warriory-champion's chameleon and his opponent. At two o'clock in the afternoon Rod and Lato met at the offices of the boxing commission to weigh in. Lato were a small, completely at his ease. Rod, however, was like a high-strung race horse eager for getaway. In answer to Lato's tantalizing smile he could only sowl in re In accordance with his manager's instructions, Rod had not shaved for two days, and a slight growth of beard together with his armoured hair, which he had forcetted off him the appearance of a half wild creature. As the two fighters stood close by the scales with only towels wrapped around them, newspaper men boomed their flashlight, and in an inumerable questions, which Latzo answered easily, and Rod with monosyllables. LATZO'S MANAGER AFRAID Kling hovered around with an enginetic smile. Watching him, Karnes was patently uneasy, in spite of his usual air of suave complicity. There was a man in which betrayed that even if his fighter were nervous, he had an idea that things were highly in his favor. Knowing Kling to be an almost unerring judge of fighters, Karnes felt he. He had taken the fight simply because he believed that NDERLA K Baltimore's G Playgroup New and Different Every SUNDAY, MAY 4 Rod Floored in the First Round THE FIGHT "He could hear the roar of the crowd beating into his benumbed consciousness, wave on wave." Roc would be a set-up for the more experienced Mickey, and he knew that with championship men as he rewrote the rules, he could not afford to take chances. Karnes called his fighter aside after he hated resumed his clothes. "Listen, Mick." he said in low tones, "I don't know really what I can do, night, I don't know really how good he is, but Kling is wearing a smile like a cat which has just lapsed up Rod Floored in "He could hear the roar of benumbed conscious a big bowl of cream—or maybe see's a big bowl of cream in sight. And not supplying any cream tonight? no? Latzo grunted contemptuously. "Humph! I'm not worrying any. Why, don't you just start the professional start? Do you think the best amateur in the world could have any luck with me? What do you think I've been fighting all these years? Well, just be on the lookout, because I've got a hunch that maybe you're in a tougher session than you know." "Well, just be on the lookout, because I've got a hunch that maybe you're in a tougher session than you know." "Well, just be on the lookout, because I've got a hunch that maybe you're in a tougher session than you know." Latzo muttered. AW, answered. "Are you still in charge?" Lazzo muttered. Kelly took Rod in charge after they left the commissioner's office. Kling had given him orders not to let Rod get out of his sight until time for the fight. LAST MINUTE PREPARATION The two fighters went to *a* hotel near the Arena where the fight was to be held. Kelly led Rod into the dining room. Kelly did not hungry, Kelly." Rod protested. "What's that got to do with it?" Kelly bantered good naturefully. "You're going to eat a walloping big steak and then we're going for a long ust leave things to do. I'll have you feeling mighty fine tonight." Accordingly, though he had no appetite at all, Rod dutifully consumed the large, rare porterhouse steak that he had given him. He was not permitted to drink anything; but water, and Kelly would not let him eat even a slice of bread. After he meal, Kelly led Rod into the Michigan Boulevard, where the blond fighter guided Rod to the lake shore. For an hour and a half they strolled slowly along the beach, then circled so that they eventually arrived back at the hotel room. Kelly bad Rod disrobe and set into bed. "Say, what's the big idea." Rod demanded. "First you nearly walk in bed. You know perfectly well that AND is Greatest ground every Sunday.

"That's what that big steak and the walk was for; to give you strength, and the walk was to digest it and make you sleep." He picked up a magazine and began to read a few minutes. Rod was sleeping peacefully. OFF FOR THE FIGHT When Kelly awakened him, lights were glowing on the street outside. The roar of the downtown evening traffic came into the room strongly. Rod set up, bewildered. The time is 12? Where am I? What—"Aw, shut up, you big soof." Kelly commanded with rough affection. "Get out of that bed and get into your fight tots. You wear the armcuff under your clothing, the seven-thirty, and preml fights have already started. Kling just phone for us to come on over." Rod leaped out of the bed and started dancing around the room, jabbing and punching at the air. "How you feel?" Kelly asked so loudly. "Gooo!" Rod snapped, as he came out from under the shower in the bathroom and started getting into his clothes. As he danced the brilliant crimson sill: boxing pants which Kling and supplied. Rod noted that there was also the insimila of a plumbing bull "You're all decked out like a champ," Kelly sighed eniously, "and this is your first fight. Boy.

His opponent's eyes seemed to gleam malevolently, while the rest of his body seemed suspended in thin air. Then they came together. Rod never seemed to be that happened until the floor seemed to rise up and smite him with terrible force in the ace.

After taking the mixture after taking the bath, the patient must dry on a clean towel and mail the towel to the "Professor" at his headquarters at Lake City, Florida. He asked if he did not even have a good time. He was very good medicine as far as it went! "Golly, Kid I'm glad you're here so quick.

Kelly threw Rod's brilliant dressing around his shoulders. At the door King halted Rod. His face was serious. "Now, my boy" he said gently, "I'm hoping that you're gonna win, that you should win, that you might be asking you how to make your fight. And if you lose, you don't have to feel bad, because I just a silly old man who has maybe over- whelmed. And if you lose, there was a suspicious moisture in Rod's manager's eyes. He turned away abruptly and out of the door. Kelly and Rod exchanged glances. Sold you it would break his heart if you didn't win. Cowboy, Kelly whispered. **ROD DOWN FOR A COUNT** Rod's law hardened, but he said nothing. The distance to the ring was covered pickily amid the tumultuous shouts of the thousands of fight fans. Latzo had already reached the ring, and the crowd was in a new box of gloves was opened, and were quickly domned by the two fighters. The referee called them to their corners, to await the gong which wave the lighting overhead and the sea of faces outside the ring made the whole scene blur in Rod's eyes and mind. When the gong clanged he moved toward the center of the ring automatically. As Latzo danced lightly to his mime in a haze which made him assume grotesque proportions. His opponent's eyes to gleam malevolently, while the rest of his body seemed suspended in thin air. He came together. Rod never remembered what happened until the floor seemed to rise up and smite him with terrible force in the ace. He could hear the roaring of the crowd beating into his bemused consciousness. He beating to hear Kling's voice beating like a wounded lamb somewhere far away. He turned over on his back laboriously. A man whose face swam dizzily before his eyes raised and his mouth slowly, beating to toll off the fatal count: "One-two-three-four." Roo blinked and shook his head. Somehow he managed to get to one knee, then a wave of dizziness swept over him and he shudded back to The referee's count continued inexorably: "—five-six-seven-eight.

ASHIONS DILSEY The 20th Century And Stlll They Flop! In the World's most Enlightened and Civilized Age, Thousands of Thoughtless Individuals are Falling Prey to Such Unscrupulous Swindlers as "Professor" Williams, whose Ill-fated Voodoo Escapes Ended in a Long Term Sentence in the Federal Penitentiary. ST. PAUL NORMAL AND INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL JUNIOR COLLEGE-FULLY ACCREDITED NORMAL AND HIGH SCHOOLS MODERNLY EQUIPPED INDUSTRIAL DEPARTMENTS Announces the Opening Dates of Its 1930 Summer School Session TWO TERMS OF SIX WEEKS EACH Bv EYE G. BILLINGS th: United States penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga. Williams, a large, powerful-looking and "slick"-looking Negro with a hundred-thousand-dollar front, was sent to the Atlanta Federal prison for two years by the United States District Court at Jacksonville, Florida. In January on a charge of using the United States mails to defraud. The case against, Williams was worked up by Postal Inspector J. O. Jones, of Atlanta. One of the complainants was an aged colored woman of Georgia who sent the letter to the court in a cure for rheumatism and the restoration of some of her youthful brightness. According to "Aunt Ellen," the complaint in this instance, the secret formula of the "voodoo" doctor was as follows: The professor placed some red dots, supposed by the patients to have been made with the blood of some animal sacred in "voodoo" practice, such as a graveyard rabbit, or something of the kind, but without any doubt, made with red ink. The patient was to take this letter, and burn it in and put the ashes carefully in a wash tub well filled with a bath in the mixture. After taking the bath the patient must dry on a clean towel and mail the towel to the "Professor" at his headquarters at Lakewood, where the court denied this was very good medicine as far as it went! This was not the first time that attempts were made to catch the "Professor" for fraudulent use of the mail it has been said, but here it was the first time that evidence sufficient to convict. None of his victims cared to have the "Professor" cast into the four winds powder from pulverized roots dug in the yard of a haunted house, as a "voodo" agency because they testified against him. They were afraid to tell on him. This time, however, there was plenty of evidence. The postal department of the Federal government had sent hundreds of correspondents of the "professor" who had sent money to him at Lake City, Florida, and secure plenty of evidence. Money orders were not so much in evidence. Sensing that he had been caught, it allowed the case to be tried before a jury, the crafty "Professor" entered a plea of guilty to the charge against him and was sentenced to two years in the Federal prison by Judge Lake Jones, judge of U.S. District Court at Jacksonville. The "Professor" snared his victims largely through the circulation of thousands of cards advertising his alleged powers. The picture of the black cat on the card presented an inference that the "Professor" was able to nullify the bad luck brought ST. PAUL NO JUNIOR COLLEGE—FU MODERNLY by black cats. The class who answered the cards of the "Professor" considered it very hard luck, for instance the road or street in front of them. The "Professor" had the cards printed in enormous quantities. One job shop turned out 25,000 of them and incidentally was cheated most of the charges of the work. The "Professor" received bites and men's orders, and one dollar bills Williams ORLANS LOUISIANA AM YOUR PRIENT.

His business was so large for a time that he had a secretary to help him take care of his correspondence, George G. Jacobs, his postmaster, George C. City, his Williams, a cashed satchels of money orders at the Lake City postoffice, not to mention the remittances in the form of paper money. These money orders were W. W. W. Virginia, New Orleans and many other parts of the country. The "Professor" gave his clients whatever form of "voodoo" art they wanted, if they preferred it, or prepared the exact concoction. Roots of various kinds and roots of distinctive color pulverized into dust are employed extensively in art. Roots of colors, dimes and quarters, especially dimes, are also used. The coins are kept in a certain chemical or acid in bottles by the sorcer rs and after they are removed from the bottles they turn slightly dark when exposed to the air. Turning dark is a sign that the "doctor" is on the job and that the charm is ORMAL AND I SCHOOL LLY ACCREDITED NORMAL EQUIPPED INDUSTRIAL DE in working order. The "doctors" assten and fifteen dollars each for the magic coins and frequently obtain this exhilarant price. Turpentine camps were "meat" for the "Professor." Negro labor is employed almost exclusively except as to manager and foreman and at some camps some of the foremen are colored. At one camp near Lake City the manager noticed that there was considerable unrest and excitement among the Negro men, some of whom were Lake City on the manager learned that a road many of the Negroes believed that some one had scattered dirt from graves from a building on their houses. The ones who believed in this superstition, and a great of them do, thought the ghosts of the persons buried in the graves from which the dirt was taken would Turpentine operators have been known to hire "voodoo" doctors to go to the camps of Omaha and to let them do the decrybery and to let it be known that certain houses, especially those of the best workers, are under an evil spell, in order to rightigate the inhabitants away so that they them to come to their camps to work. At the camo near Lake City a number did leave town this time the manager noticed that "Professor" Williams was visiting the camp but he never found out whether the "Professor" was responsible for the deaths he had been retained to lay the ghosts, or oracleate whatever trouble was on hand. He said the "Professor" had secured around $300 out of his labor before he found him After the "Professor" had been at the came, he said, dimes or quarters could be seen on the ankles of some thirty or forty men, accounted for one, Sam Alexander, one of his laborers, broke out of his house with loud whoops of terror at midnight one night during a hard storm, declaring that a weeping woman, three or four new shinies on the house, however, settled Sam's nerves and he was no longer afraid to enter the house again. This is reputed to be a feeling he away the evil spirits most cases. Several of his man, the manager learned, bought magic roots to place under their houses. They believed that if their women carried on with other women the roots of the roots would make them confess their indiscretions when they returned. That the "Professor" tried to work money out of persons in jail was proven in the case of a woman who had been recently. She asked for a new trial on the ground that the authorities had secured the correspondence between herself and Williams and had used it in the case against Will The "Professor" was quite a sport and drove a big car around Lake City. He spent money lavishly in Lake City. He operated a car and drove it on several months, on side, and his cash register was robbed frequently. In Lake City there is a Negro school known as a Rosenwald school, established in Chicago who contributed to the ex-merger of the erecting the building. One provisio in making a donation is that the patrons of the school themselves must raise $500 or $1,000 or some specified sum, in order to furnish their desire for a school building before the Rosenwald fund assists them. Being a man of money "Professor" Williams was called on for a donation to help raise the patrons' quota and he responded quite slowly. Although he was working against his own interest — education works against the "woodo" business. At one time the "Professor" organized a brass band and a baseball club among the young people the school and the colored section Williams attended Tuskegee Institute in Alabama at one time. He had been in Lake City about 1920. He released on bond after his arrest, he laughed as if his superstitions practices were a joke when asked about his arrest. He repeated several times and paid heavy fines in Lake City for selling liquor. He also had trouble with the police, tampa, Jacksonville and New Orleans. Perhaps.

"Big Truck" Scheduled to Meet Jack Rozier in Ten-Round Windup FIRST TIME IN CITY Excellent Supporting Card is Arranged Baltimore is to have a championship fight. George Godfrey, the uncrowned king of the heavyweights and Jack Rozier, of Houston, Texas, will collide in a ten round bout at the Black Sox baseball park, on Friday. May 16 in the first outdoor boxing show of the season, the bout to determine the colored heavyweight champion of the world. Rozier has something on Godfrey when it comes to height and weight. Godfrey comes lighter than the "Shadow of Leiperville." The Texan tips the beam at the 225 pound mark, while Godfrey usually comes in around 235 pounds. Rozier who is six feet three. Whites Dodged George All of the white heavyweight contenders have ca-efully avoided God They could not find a white man willing to trade punches with Godfrey one in New York, June 12, and "Big Gawze" has been deprived of another chance to show in New York. Then there was talk of matching Godfrey with Primo Garnera, the Ambling AIB. And though this bout will never materialize, Rozier Ambitious Rozier readily agreed to the terms and sighed. "This fellow Godfrey," he said, "has been the country posing as a martyr long enough. I think I can lick him and prove to the world that he has no claim on the colored heavyweight champion." Rozier is twenty-five years of age and has been campaigning for the past several years. He has fought in the boxing ring and Jack Stone, Tiny Hoffman, Jack Smith, Jack Thompson, Ralph Smith, Billy Wells and some other well-known boxers. He has knocked out Leonard Dixon of Philadelphia and Joe Jeannette. Godfrey Training Hard Godfrey seems to realize that Razor may make it a tough fight, as this week he started to train at Ridley Park Charley Price is in charge of him and has engaged several good sparing partners. He points to Godfrey's long lay-off and say he has not benefitted any by this inactivity. Meanwhile Razor has been going about the country engaging in various bouts. Godfrey is too strong. The Godfrey-Razor bout is not the only one that will help to draw what promises to be the biggest crowd to ever witness a bout in Baltimore. Jeff Thomas, just back from abrasions, said he was in a heavyweight of Philadelphia, in the semi-windup of the bill.

DETROIT—Marking the first time in the realms of fistiana, Jack Thompson and Jackie Fields, white, who are to fight here for the welterweight championship. Friday night, have agreed to substitute a five-minute period for a decision in case of a foul. The decision came in view of some of the malodorous foul decisions that this year. The rest period for a fouled fighter, under the agreement, will be granted by the referee, only if the combatant and his seconds feel that he is required to retrieve from the effects of the foul blow. In two previous meetings Thompson has been beaten by Fields.

MoMahon, the promoter, probably will put it on before Singer and Mandel box for the lightweight throne, July 17, at the Yankee Stadium. We shall see which is the greater attraction, Singer or Chocolate. "After m' boy beats Battalino you show a real champion. I'll sign contracts to fight the five best featherweights in the world a month "He'll take on the winner of the Singer-Mandell match in between. If you want to win, you want Chocolate to fight him. Certainly, if he will box at 134 pounds a weight he can make. You should Chocolate away more than seven to him?" Suggests Gans for Berg Suggests Gans for Berg "I'm interested in Baby Joe Gans.

This was the viewpoint of Referee Frank Gant, who disqualified Jack Fryer. The boxer had "flipped" to the floor three times with the pace of forty seconds. Flynn was booked to battle Jimmy Collins, a Bayonne, N.J. Negro, in the eight-round wind up, and seemed to be his contact, and when he came in contact with the colored fighter, he dropped to the canvas without being hit. Referee Gant refused to start counting and fight. After regaining his feet again, Flynn soon adopted the horizontal posture a second time and once more was ordered to form a team. Collins appeared too threatening to the Michigan mittman, and besides, the resin-coated slam stage proved too inviting for Flynn and he gracefully dismounted the deck again. This time he refused to take orders from the referee and the disqualification followed. Referee Gant announced that he had ordered Flynn's purse held up and stated he would recommend his indefinite suspension by the state boxing board. Collins, exhibited promise and will be booked for a later match here.

Humiliated by a stinging 19-5 defeat in the first game, the Black Sox, with Paige on the mound, defeated the Hilldale Daisies, 8-2 in the second contest at Maryland Park, Sunday. The game marked the official opening of the 1930 season for the Black Sox, and was started when Herbert O'Connor, state's attorney, tossed up the first ball. George Rossiter, owner of the team, was at bat, and laid down an easy roller between first and second. Pound Sox Hurlers It has been some time since the Sox took a shellacking as they did in that first game. Yokely, the local's mound ace, was serving them up on the field, but he was relieved in the fifth, after the Darby bats had banged out six runs. Flournoy taking his place. But Sir Pud fareed no better than the mighty Laymon, and when he was down, the sound that Hilldale had connected safely on 20 occasions, seven of the hits being doubles and two, triples. Webster McDonald, Hilldale submarine, was in form and was keeping the hits of the Sox well scattered until he was forced to retire from the gam. in the fifth inning when he fell and cut his hand while backing up a low three in the outfield. Layvis the Cuban fast ball artist, who took his place allowed only three hits. Daisies Start Early The Daisies started their dirty work early, hammering Yokely for five hits in the first frame, and converting them into four runs. They counted two more in the fifth, four in the sixth, four in the eighth and five in the ninth. Ragged support behind the pitching of Yokely and Flournoy, however, had a big part to play.

Household Hints Use an ordinary wire fly swatter to dust from fancy pillows or silk lamp shades, they will be. I have a diamond wedding ring which I have made trouble and expense since it is used to catch in all the silk things I handled. As I am out of the time, I finally solved the difficulty by putting over my ring one of the little rubber corrugated rings used on the bases of curtains. I needed a hook for hooked rings. I took the handle of an aluminum ladder, and I used the finest hook imaginable. When finished, it was about 9 inches long.

These can be obtained at any house-furnishing store for a very small sum. To measure a cupful of any dry ingredient—fill and scrape off with a knife. Half, quarter and third cupfuls are indicated by marks on the cup. A pint is two cupfuls of anything. To measure a cupful, or spoonful of shortening, pour in as much as the utensil will hold. To measure a cupful or spoonful of spice in the utensil, but not to overflow. To measure a half tablespoonful or teaspoonful of any dry ingredient. Measure the amount of spice and divide lengthwise. To measure a quarter spoonful, halve crosswise. A HOUSEHOLD HINT Never serve wilted lettuce. It may be freshened quite easily, and when crisp and firm will make a far better impression. It can be dried in the oven or fried, sautéed, trussed or wilted. Wrap in brown paper and place in the refrigerator overnight. If you wish to be particularly fussy, put the lettuce plant in a bowl of water with the stem down and then set this bowl in a tightly-covered larger dish and allow it to stand for the same length of time.

Connor, principal of Baltimore Normal School his address, "to help the Slimmen in Our Present Day Life." He said that the Negro teacher was challenged by race proscription, by the new psychological doxia of human inequality, and by the demands way for a new philosophy of education. He said that the Negro did not need a new philosophy of education, as so many misguided theorists have asserted but that he must be educated about the same lines as among Americans. Teachers Must Realize Progress He also disccurbed at the apparent slowness of Nero educational progress. The Nero student must be made aware of the need for instance, and that for instance, the State of North Carolina today spends as much on Nero education alone as it did on both white and black students. He also advised Nero teachers to demand the best of themselves and their pupils. He would read to send four delegates to the Annual Meeting of the National Association of Teachers in Colored College at the Virginia State College this summer. New Officers L. P.

Rivalry is Keen for Railroad Jobs By R. L. MAYS CHICAGO—(ANP). — Riding the same train with me into Chicago, last month, was a general committee of the white firemen and trainmen up from Louisiana and Mississippi and possibly Tennessee. The men of these crafts as the rumor was that these committee were en route to Chicago to ask for 90 percent of the trainmen's jobs and 75 percent of the locomotive firemen's work on the railway. "Ninety-fifty" for the two races. On top of this, the colored head and trainmen in passenger service on certain divisions of Illinois Central subsidiary suffered the tremendous reduction in pay from $175 a month in month just before last winter set in. So with the white workers seeking to eliminate black men from employment and the railway company cutting wages almost the rate of the railroad, "between the devil and the deen blue sea." 'Judge Brien of the Circuit Court at Vicksburg, Mississippi' received in favor of a colored trainman whose pay had been arbitrarily reduced by the Railroad and ordered back pay of seven thousand, five hundred dollars.

Man says God He Invent Henry Newton Eats, Sleeps, W Machine to which H WASHINGTON. — The problem that has sent many men to their graves with broken hearts and to the asylums with shattered minds has been attacked by Henry Newton, who claims that he has perfected a machine that will generate power without the use of fuel. While the machine is built on the principle of perpetual motion, which for centuries has been a will-o'-the-wisp to inventors all over the world, it is not supposed to operate indefinitely but can be stopped and started at will. The machine, which operates by balances and pumps, changes the pressure on any kind to make it go, but is capable of producing thousands of pounds of compressed air, which in turn is used to operate any type of machinery. The inventor claims that his machine will completely revolutionize the whole mechanical industry and will do away with the use of electricity, gasoline and coal as a motivating power in operating machinery. Worked for 13 Years For three long years Mr. Newton labored away in a cellar beneath the Dudley Apartments in the 1300 block of U Street, northwest, building his machine. He worked night and day, sometimes without food, in his COMPANY'S HEAD "SURPRISED" ON ANNIVERSARY Supervisor Deans Hands C. C. Spaulding Results of Week's Work 64 AGENTSQUALIFY That Many Write Names in Company Album DURHAM, N.C. — A very pleasant surprise greeted C. C. Spaulding, president of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, at the thirty-first anniversary celebration held din the home office auditorium, Monday, April 28, at which time he was presented with applications totalling $1,600,000. This is one of the greatest accomplishments in the history of the company, and sets a mark in new business attained during any one week by a Negro insurance company. It was supplanted over by G W. Cox, director of agents Yells that were given for President Spaulding as he entered the room resounded throughout the spacious office building. Mr. Cox spoke for a few minutes on the anniversary program, and then introduced Deans for the district for the District of Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia. Presents New Business Mr. Deans talked on the "Field Force, and What They Expect of the Home Office." Before taking his s e at he presented to President: Spaulding, on behalf of the field force, applications amounting to $1,600,000. In response to this presentation, President Spaulding arose with tears in his eyes, and for a while was unable to speak. Eventually, he thanked the agency director and all who had a helping hand in the anniversary effort. He stressed the value of loyalty and co-operation in building up business organization, fittingly past tribute to the late John M. Moore, founder of the company. He said: "The North Carolina Manual has never given anything to the public but fact in its financial statements that the company would be before we would resort to such thing as a false statement. "Next to that which I have just said, our deepest concern is the welfare of our agents. What we must is, with us, the control of the big big industrial and criminal, so that each agent's voucher will underwrite his economic requirements so that he will be a concrete and living example in his community of the gospel of service mind is the embodiment of the life and purpose of North Carolina Mutual in the life of the people. "Who can foretell the story of the next thirty-two years. Let me ask you, are you working to that end? With a heart full of appreciation this wonderful demonstration on this occasion.

Quarters in a Cellar In his lowly cellar, which he keeps locked from the peering eyes of man, he has his sleeping quarters and issues forth only for food, stopping work on his machine long enough to get enough money to go back again. Newton is a man of 49 and has been planning his machine for 13 years, but has only actually worked on it since he was a child. At this time he followed the sea and has an extensive knowledge of ocean machinery. He claims that his machine will be able to propel a steamship into the ocean without the use of coal or gas. Is a Scientist The inventor is a native of British Guiana and received an education in Euror · where he invented other instruments. He has a keen knowledge of the instruments on his machine he studied the history of perpetual motion, analyzing carefully the machines of each inventor who failed and claims that he was able in this manner to find out where the machine was and to correct it in his own machine. He claims that he was called of God to perfect this machine which has been so elusive during the ages, and that he was equipped with scientific works and the Bible.

This one came from Chicago: Press reports of your speech made yesterday seeking confirmation of Judge Parker show how little you regard the interests, wishes, and welfare of the colored people of the country and of Ohio. Your speeches and attitude shall not be forgotten by the colored people. Should you ever come before the people again seeking office we shall certainly do all in our power to defeat you. Pes: said that these threatening telegrams were the work of poor, benigned individuals. Johnson admitted it, but added that there were benigned individuals on both sides the Parker controversy. LETTERS From a N. C. Educator Senator Heber (Rep. R.L.) ardent Parker supporter, read this letter from a North Carolina educator into the Record on May 1: Greensboro, N.C. April 28, 1930. Editor of the Daily News: In view of the statement, in part, made by J.S.E. John J. Parker to Senator Overman in a recent letter explaining his attitude toward the political rights of the இரு-nude, namely, "I at no time advocated de-gring them the right to participate in the election in cases where they were qualified to do so, and do not do to advocate denying them to do so" and of their rights under the Consti-tion and laws of the United States. I take this opportunity of saying that not-withstanding I was opposed to his election as governor 10 years ago because of alleged newspaper reports of his political utterances made during the campaign. I now approve of his nomination for the United States Superior moreover, think that, in view of the above-quoted explanation, intelligent and open-minded member of our race should now entertain any further grievance or objection to his comments. CHARLES H. MOORE. From a Chicago Girl Senator Overman (Dem, N.C.), read into the Record this letter received from a Chicago girl: Chicago: III., April 20, 1920. Senator Leo S. Cohn, United States Senate. Washington, D.C. All life I have known you and your family, and I know of your ritorinates, triples and fathers. I know you love me, and I know how fair and just you have always been, so now I can not understand you in continuing your confirmation of your rights. A Supreme Court judge. I know that you realize the importance of such a great office and that you must realize that a person holding it with such narrow now views as Mr. Parker can not administer justice fairly and with an unprecedented mind. If he is confirmed, the hopes of 15000,000 Negroes will be shattered, because they will know that the democracy for which they fought is the World War and that their effort to be good American citizens by defending the flag upon every occasion have all been in vain. So I am appealing to you to withdraw his name and to name a man who believes in all of the American principles of Jefferson and Washington and who realizes that the fromers of the Constitution were men of superior knowledge and patriots who had in mind the morning of a true America which would bring happiness to all of its citizens were right in their idols, and this great Constitution is one of the greatest documents ever penned by men; and until it is enforced no American, however rich or powerful, can enjoy the full blessings and glories of this great country. I hope you will not think I am presumptuous, but I do want you to know how my people feel: and knowing that you have always been interested in justice and a square deal to all, I am making this appeal. Sincerely yours. K. R. Moton Dies Early The National Association for the Advancement of Women asked the People an email week the receipt of a telegram from Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, denying that he had endorsed Judge Parker. A North Carolina school district named Epops the school having Washington newspaper expressing Mr. Moton's approval of Judge Parker. Wire From Baltimore Bar The association also announced receipt of a telegram from the Monumental Bar Association, having expressed its work in opposing Judge Parker's confirmation. Senator Blease read into the Record on Monday, the following from the Detroit Colored People's Union: "We were the last hope of the South because colored people have blocked his appointment and we will defeat every other office seeker from who deny our people full rights equality." We demand judges who will repeal election laws like those in South Carolina. Senator Blease also read into the Senate Record a letter from the AFRO-AMERICAN of April 26, concerning the Parker case together with a letter from the AFRO-AMERICAN Company urging him to vote against Parker. Senator Blease said: "I wish to remind attention to the stakes in the article herein inserted from the AFRO-AMERICAN which says: "DPIERIST BUSY. "DPIERIST DEPristen is been but the last living up Senate votes against Judge Parker."

BROOKLYNITE IRKS RITZY RESIDENTS Makes Good Threat to Rent House to Colored Family in Fashionable Neighborhood BROOKLYN, N.Y.—The determination of Mrs. Ella E. Morris, white, to rent her property to colored tenants in an exclusive section to spite her white neighbors became a reality here this week when a colored family leased the three-story house at 54 Midwood Site.

The Nation's Biggest All-Negro Weekly "DEAR HERBERT" NOTE READ IN COURT Effusive Love Missives Used as evidence by Defendant Hubby in Assault Case OTHER LOVES ALLEGED Letters to "Leon" and "Harry" also Read The reading of love letters addressed to other men caused Mrs. Annie Cole, 1423 Argyle Avenue, to lose the custody of her child when she appeared in the Northwestern police station, Friday morning, to testify against her husband, Marshall Cole, 1202 Argyle Avenue. Mrs. Cole testified that she and her husband had separated on April 29 after he had beaten her. She went to the home of her sister and the following day he came there with a rebuke of her husband because of her husband's threats and wrath she was forced to hide behind a cabinet until he left the house. She asked the custody of their ten-year-old son, Marshall, junior. Cole denied the accusations. He wanted to get rid of him to keep company with another man. Roy S. Bond, Cole's attorney, read several letters that Mrs. Cole is one of the missives to "Dear Herbert," declared that she was longing for him. Another sent to a man named "Loon" addressed him as "Dearest." Mrs. Cole was noted as stating "I am longing for you, please come around to my B. B. A." The Magistrate after hearing the letters dismissed the assault and the wife the custody of the child. The couple have decided to "kiss and make up" and live together for the sake of their relationship with O-AMERICAN, Wednesday. Mr. Cole said he was willing to believe that the letters were written to him by the names "Harry" and "Leon." 10. 1221 Jefferson-sl. DAVENTOP-WALKER-Woodie, 32, 61 N. Bend-st.

Bishop Hurst's illness Dampens Social Functions During Conference Here. Baltimore Society Active in Flower Market Program. DEAR PANSY: The warm weather has come at last, and has made us conscious of the fact that the proper thing now is to begin spring house cleaning—and don't we all love it? However, the month of May gives us more than usually exciting events, no doubt, because, as in all nature, there springs up a greater vitality in mankind, which manifests itself in so many ways: the return of life and beauty for instance—trees unfolding their new foliage; glorious weather; birds chirping everywhere; automobiles running; people on country pikes and eddy roads, in their bright two-tone hues; surrounded by all this and a bloom with good health, why should we all be happy? But to the week's social functions, and whys and wherefores. Mothers' Day Mothers' Day, Pansy, as is the usual memory of the day, the ministers will take for their seminars—"Mother." Flowers will be given, skirts and hats, coats, in memory of that dear one, dead, or alive. Her toils and struggles, skirts and hats, her joy, serviles will be remembered in the memory of many a son and daughter on that day. The queen of queens, the greatest treasure on earth, but how many of us realize it until she is dead, or when she is gone. Mother, the head of the home, the working wheel, the thinking power—oh, that my own mother were alive! Damper on Social Functions Baltimore has a way of them coming out-of-town folks. It's put down as a fact, that our city leads in hospital care and charming and interesting people here that a shower of pleasant events are thrust upon them during their week. But last week, the very sad news that our dear Bishop John Hurst, la at death door at the Provident Host- ing Center, has all social plans that had been laid for the visitors attending the 113th annual session of the Baltimore A.M.E Conference. At the home of Mrs. C. E. Stuart, which is always looked for by the community, she cancelled. Mrs. John R. Coasey, who as a rule, even conference is here, a delightful hostess to a number of people, and she has laid her affairs this year. The reception of cordial welcome was the only real social affair that honored their guests. Mrs. R. Coasey was held at St. John's Church, given by the ladies and organizations of the church for Mrs. Hurst and an effort to keep her cheerful was the main thought of the prominent church women. Expressions of hope were heard on all sides. Bouquets on top of bouquets have been constantly arriving at the preschool member in the hospital all the week. The doctors and nurses gave every attention, and used their utmost skill to pass the bouquet. The pass passed Tuesday morning. The Flower Market The Co-operative Women's Civic League has mapped out an interest in the market, on Friday, the 14th. Every conceivable thing to draw the crowd includes a society of all society folks are all enthused and donations are coming in constantly. From sub-debs *p*, they tell me what to wear, what to tie the affair, to make it an unusual event. Beautiful costumes are to be worn, awnings of all kinds and a dress to be put up in various places all along the pretty grass plots. Booths will be chosen in the tastiest fashion, and the dresses or used to furnish your home and garden, and to amuse you during the entire day on the scene to packets.

Liberal-Conservatives That Southern Conservatives are up to challenge Parker confirmation is plainly evident as the shifting edifes of discussion of the matter reveal themselves.

Even EDDIE CANTOR can't tell this 15¢ RECORD from 75¢ phonograph music Hit-of-the-Week Records THOUGHT Flo Ziegfeld was handing me a great big Ha-Ha. He came back all steamed up after hearing this new record. For 15¢...a full-size record...high priced orchestras ...big musical hits! I had to laugh. I hadn't had a good laugh since before I was caught short in the market. For 15¢? For 15¢ you couldn't buy even a piccolo solo! But then I heard the record played, right alongside a 75¢ one. That's when I became interested in the business! I listened to six of these Hit-of-the-Week Records, and if there's any difference between them and the kind I plunk down 75¢ for, I must be wearing ear muffs. These records are one-sided. You can buy the music you really want without plunking down good dough for a dud on the reverse side. And they don't break! I took one home. I sat on it. I hit it with a hammer. We used it as a cocktail tray. Even my pre-war (that is, "pre" the next war) stuff couldn't scar it. And then the cook fried an egg on it. It played just the same. There's not a break in a boxful! They're made of Durium, folks, and that's the whole secret. Durium was invented by Dr. H. T. Beans, professor The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, May 10, 1930 ALL Ed can 15 75¢ ph our NEWS ST of chemistry at Columbia University. He told me the technical name and it made me dizzy, but, anyhow, the stuff looks something like brown patent leather. With the old type of record, a man and a machine can turn out 700 a day. With Durium, a man and a machine can turn out 70,000. Now your money can buy music instead of expensive material! That's why Hit-of-the-Week Records can sell for 15¢! But that's not all. There are more reasons why this is the biggest thing that ever hit the phonograph business. Only one record will be made each week, and that will be a hit that has proved itself on the stage, and over the radio, and on the dance floor. Flo Ziegfeld, Vincent Lopez and I will act as a musicjury to pick out the most popular piece of music every week. Then it will be recorded by one of the best orchestras that money can hire. Every record a hit! No flops admitted here! That's why you can buy Hit-of-the-Week Records without bothering to hear them beforehand. You just know that each one's a wow. So step up, folks, and give a poor margin-called actor a break, and give yourself a treat. You can buy these records AT ANY NEWSSTAND as easily as buying a magazine.
