PURITANS AS BAD
Graded Slaves for Rum, Molasses.
By C. ELLIOTT FREEMAN, JR.
(Carroll News Service)
BOSTON. — The majority of the Pilgrims and Puritans were prostitutes from the streets of London, and jailbirds with the stamp of criminal written over their faces, was the declaration of Dr. W. E. B. Dubois, editor of the Crisis here Thursday.
He followed the former attorney-
general as one of two principal
general as one o
speakers at the
Tercenary meeting
of the Society
of the Descendants
of Early New England
Negroes, held
at Roxbury
Memorial High School.
Herbert Parker,
white, the first
speaker on the
program, selected
hisopic.
"The Descendants
of the New Englanders to
the Slaves."
A. M.
New Englanders to Dr. Du Bols the Slaves."
Speaking briefly on slavery, the former attorney-general said that the general attitude of the New Englanders was to a great extent unable to the abomineable evil of slavery and racial hatred.
Du Bois Sarcastic
Making a sarcastic apology to the former attorney-general, Dr. DuBois said that any one who believed that the New Englanders, including Massachusetts, were not apart to the institution of slavery, "did not know their history," for both the New Englanders and Massachusetts engaged in the triangular slave trade.
He said that the New Englanders purchased molasses and sugar from the West Indies; this was turned into rum and sold for large profits, and some of the New Englanders took the remainder of the rum to Africa which was used in making the African drunk. Being in an inoxiating condition, they were brutally handled and brought to dies by these same New Englanders who exchanged for molasses and sugar.
As Bad as Dixie
If the climate conditions of New England, declared Dr. Du Bois, had been the same as in the South, slaves would have been employed in this section of the country.
"Only a few early New Englanders really accomplish anything worth doing," the Bois said. "If the answers of most of these descendants to enter the door most of them would be greatly embarrassed, because the majority of early New England settlers consisted of prostitutes and sail birds."
Dr. Bu Bois took for his topic "Ancestor-Worship." He said that, too much emphasis was put upon the revering of individuals.
He produced as an honorary president of the Society of the Descendants of Early New England Negroes.
35.000 Parade
Dr. Walter O. Tayler, a member of the Tercentenary Committee, as a member of the silk-hatted mounted officials led the parade of 35,000 marchers, Wednesday. Editor W.M. Trotter of the Boston Guardian, another member of the Tercentenary committee, was given a coveted seat on the reviewing stand.
Further representation of the Negro consisted in three floats depicting roles played by early Negroes in the foundation of the Massachusetts Bar Colony. Two Negro farmers who participated in the battle of Lexington and were impersonated on one of the floats.
Fraternal organizations participating were: the Knights of Pythianis, Elks, and Boy and Girl Scouts; also the 372 Massachusetts National. But the hit of the day was the marching of the Elks.

RAP HAWKINS'S G.O.P. LEADER IN DEFENSE OF JERSEY JOINS BISHOP CAREY DEMOCRATS
THE RAILWAYS OF THE WESTERN UNION
Riot of 1,000 Chicago colored workers stopped all work on a city street car extension line, at 51st Street and Grand-Boulevard. After a conference between leaders and car company officials, foreign-horn workers were withdrawn from the colored section and colored laborers hired.
You've often heard the expression, "Fifty million Frenchmen can't be wrong," which merely implies that mass approval, while not perfect, is a pretty good gauge of a product's worth. This is proven by THE AFRO each week.

RAP HAWKINS'S DEFENSE OF BISHOP CAREY
CHICAGO.-The fight to oust Bishop A. J. Carey from the A.M.E Church flared again here last week when the "Common Sense Committee," headed by Mrs' Nana Jackson accused John R. Hawkins; financial secretary of the A.M.E Church, of making an untrue statement in connection with connection funds in defense of the prelate.
"Despite the fact," Mrs. Jackson's committee declared, "that Bishop Carey made and repeated a statement that he had kept connection money to help struggling churches, Dr. Hawkins came here and declared that connection money had been received by the different departments."
Ia Controdictory
Evidently, the committee says, Dr Hawkins did not know that he was contradicting Bishop Carey's own words. "Any statement Mr. Hawkins would make now would be difficult to believe after such an astonishing error. He showed poor judgment in coming to Chicago to defend the financial maneuverings of a bishop under indictment by the criminal court, charged with bribery and conspiracy, and gge who in admittance apparently unaware the continuances apparently unaware the afraid to meet the issue face to face lest the prison doors swing open for him." says the committee.
Ran Away with Minutes
The Common Sense Committee again calls attention to the statement of Bishop Carey in which he stated that minutes had not been printed because a man in Indiana ran off with the minutes, and a statement from Mrs. Coppin, widow of the late Bishop Levi J. Coppin, that the committee was bringing the truth to their very doors.

TRENTON, N. J. — Dr. J. Leroy Baxter, who for three years was a Republican assemblyman from Essex County in the sessions of 1927, 1928 and 1929, announced that a large group of colored citizens hitherto allied with the Republican party, have organized in this campaign to aid the Simpson candidacy. The announcement came at a luncheon of party leaders, Friday. Under the rule of Tammany Hall in New York the Negro enjoys more privileges than elsewhere, said Dr. Baxter. "In spite of any honors I may have received from the Republican party, and they were paid my political complements," he said. "We welcome you to the Democratic party, replied Mayor Hague, white during his speech. "We promise you equal rights, a square deal as the white people."
On September 22, Governor Morgan. Larson conferred with U.S. Senator John Kerry. Baird concerning the coming senatorial campaign in which Dwight F. Morrow, Republican, is opposed by State Senator Alexander Simpson, Democrat. And Baird voted for Anti-Negr Judge John J. Parker for the Supreme Court and easily displeased colored voters. The same said the conference discussed means of placating colored people.
BLEASE TO RUN AGAIN
COLUMBIA, S.C.-(ANP)-Believing in the motto of the Salvation, that "A man may be down but never out," Senator Bryan conceded that he will run again for the United States Senate, in 1932, in opposition to Senator Ellison D. Smith, the present incumbent. Senator Blease was defeated in the runoff weeks ago, James E. Brynes, when he injected the lynching issue.

REFORM SCHOOLS

By WILLIAM N. JONES
General improvement of school facilities for Negroes throughout the State, the establishment of an institution for the feeble-minded, and complete changes in the management of reform schools for girls at Melvale and for boys at Cheltenham, were promised in the platform adopted by the Republican State Convention which convened at the Maryland Theatre here, Monday.
The same convention nominated William F. Brooming for governor, David A. Robb for attorney, general, W. Newton Jackson for controller, and Charles S. Warner for clerk of the court of appeals.
Equal Opportunity
A reference which leaders interpreted as expressing the view of party leaders on the Negro status in Maryland Republicanism came when former Senator Joseph I. France, closing a general endorsement of all candidates declared that if the Maryland Free State means anything it should mean free and equal for every citizen, white and colored. Dr. France's speech, in which he warned the delegates that it would be best to boost their own candidates rather than adopt a hammering campaign against Governor Rubie the Democratic candidate, was in contrast to the governor who rapped the present governor for his fourth term aspirations and declared that he had usurped the power of government

WOELPER MUFFS
CHANCE TO NAME
NEGRO FOREMAN
Postmaster Benjamin F. Woelper, Jr., muffed his best opportunity to appoint a colored foreman at Falls Station where fifty per cent of the employees are Negroes, thereby deliberately breaking his promise to the Baltimore branch of the National Alliance of Postal Employees and Senator Phillip Lee Goldsborough.
A shake-up occurred at the Falls Station last week and Assistant Superintendent W. H. Granger, white, was transferred to the St. Paul Street Station and Art. ur B. House, also white, formerly a foreman clerk on the floor, was elevated to full vacancy. It was hoped that Postmaster Woelper would size this opportunity to make good his pricie, appointing a colored foreman, but then he chops were shortlived because he immediately named Henry Nuth. white, of the St. Paul Station as foreman to succeed House.
Bone of Contention
The appointment of a colored foreman has been the cause of much contention for many years. The failure to obtain this end led to charms of open discrimination being filed by the Alliance with Senator Goldsboro and Senator Roberts, the time it was pointed out that second rate white clerks were placed over Negro clerks with first rate standing and twenty to thirty years of experience. Regardless of how well they qualified in competitive examinations it was impossible for Negro clerks to be appointed to the high positions where were readily appointed, it was charged.
Denies Discrimination
Postmaster Wooler after an investigation denied the charges to Senator Goldsborough and declared that he at that time had under, consideration the promotion of a colored employee to a foremanship. Mr. Wooler admitted that junior white clerks were placed over the crews of colored clerks longer experience and training rains during the course of the foreman, but sought to ascribe this to fitness rather than discrimination, implying that the colored workers were inferior and incompetent.

"If a one-legged white woman with one bad foot could learn to drive an automobile, I didn't see why I couldn't."
Thus spoke Miles Nikon and today he is driving a new eight-cylinder car. Ten years ago Mr. Nikon was selling newspapers in the streets of Baltimore. "AFRO," his familiar yell, woke up late sleepers Sunday as he drove through the streets with an ancient horse and wagon.
Member of Legislature
Forty years ago Mr. Nixon was a member of the North Carolina legislature. The gang of white shirtless, white-clad Simmons, white-chased John R. Hawkins, Mr. Nixon and other political leaders out of the state, leaving North Carolina so disfranchised he—even today colored with white vote, and make believe they like it.
Sooner Now
Mr. Nixon is now superintendent of a flock of Corona apartment houses in New York, where he is making good and banking his money. His new duties recently carried him past the offices of a company which guarantees to teach anybody how to drive an auto and get a license or else refund your money. He did not dome make application to drive was too much for Mr. Nixon, despite his 60-odd years. He paid his money and was soon taking his first lesson. He drove in a car with brakes, clutch, accelerator, driving wheel to handle and traffic laws to memorize. Mr. Nixon says he was timid at first, but afterwards found driving an auto easier than horse and wagon beaten that doesn't always in traffic jams at street corners.
Failed 3 Times
Three times Mr. Nixon said he failed the examination and the fourth time he went through. Now he's a car driver, and his car through the busiest city in the world. The only time he got mad, Mr. Nixon said was when an inspector asked him, "Pop what does it take like you want to learn to drive for?" Asked if he found living in New York different from life in Baltimore, Mr. Nixon said he had learned to move faster and be more others, his car driving in New York "My first week in New York" he said, "I was knocked down while walking along on the sidewalk I protested, and the man who had bumped into me fell, you out to get out of the way." "Since that time I have the New York rush habit. I bumped a fellow the other day and sent him sprawling. I helped him up, but I advised him the future to look out of the way."

(Washington Bureau of the AFRO)
WASHINGTON. — The capital awoke Tuesday to find it had two recorders of deeds.
President Hoover accepted the resignation of Arthur G. Froe of Baltimore and promoted Jefferson S. Coauge, of Delaware, second deputy recorder, to fill the vacancy.
Mr. Froe's resignation, which has ben on Mr. Hoover's desk for more than a year, was accepted suddenly to take effect at the close of business September 10, 1950, with apparently unassembly hasse, was sworn in September 23, eight days before he can take up his new duties.
Back of the fast work of President Hoover and Mr. Coague is Senator Daniel Hastings, white (Rep. Delai) whose re-election is opposed by Senator Thomas Bayard, a Democrat.
Colored organizations throughout Delaware's three counties are in only because he voted for anti-Negro arms against Senator Hastings, not Judge J. Parker for the Supreme Court of the United States, the major member in which he treated the colorized constituents who urged him to change his mind. Hastings stated openly that he would not listen to colored voters even if it cost him his seat.
Taking him at his words hundreds of Negroes are supporting a known friend, Mr. Bayard the Democrat, who also has the backing of a philanthropist, who has rebuilt new colored rural schools all over the state.
Mr. Du Pont's support is based on the fact that Bayard is wet and Hastings is dry.
With his back against the wall Hastings, according to reports, appealed to President Obama by banning his candidacy by Mr. Coage of Delaware, to the recklessness, with the expectation that the latter will influence Delaware voters to stay in line.

Section 864 states that if a person shall knowingly permit on premises under his control the game of lottery, he shall be fined not less than $50 nor more than one year, or both.

Council's Segregation Measure Would Keep Whites Out of Negro Pool Rooms
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — (ANP) — ordinance providing that Negroes and whites frequent pool rooms, theaters and other indoor amusement places must be separated by a distance, when accesses be by the city council, Wednesday.
Councilman Elkin stated that he had been inspired to present the bill to the council, and whites mingling freely in Negro pool rooms. Citizens in those districts in which the places were located, had complained about this inter-mingling of the racial groups and urged him to take steps to stop.
Several raids for vagrants loitering in the Negro pool rooms have resulted in the arrest of many white ron who were found frequenting the places where vagrants were located, colored fellow-citizens. This proved embarrassing to the whites who operate business places in the same section and police were urged to keep whites out of Negro places. There was no need to pass the ron, because police operated for whites as they were never permitted to enter.

(Special to the AFO)
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Arthur G. Froe of Welch, West Virginia, will retire from the office of Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia, after having filled this outstanding position for eight years and seven months under Presidents Harding, Coolidge, and Hoover.
Mr. Froe was appointed by the late President Harding February 15, 1922, and was continued in office because of his record. He was recorder in fact as well as in name.
Under Mr. Free, the recruitment face, the only non-jim error in the capital, has given its greatest improvement. The floor space has doubled; modern office equipment substituted for antiquated, broken furniture and machines; inadequately paid employees have had their salaries increased; all sixty-one employees have been placed under the Personnel Classification Board and the Federal Retirement Act.
The latest labor-saving devices, including a uniform accounting system, have been installed for speeding up the work and for getting better results; and a loose-leaf copying system has been put into use that will result in saving the copying of approximately 25,000,000 words a year.
A federation service and first aid relief facilities have also been installed in the office.
Mr. Froe has created important positions for colored people as follows: second density recorder, held by Jefferson S. Foley, M.D.; second density recorder, held by Mrs. Florence B. Walters of Washington, D.C.; assistant head typist, filled by Mrs. Ida J. Strachan of Washington, D.C.; classification officer, filled by Harry H Jones of Wheeling, W. Va.; assistant to the second, Eddie E. McCormick of Monton, W. Va.; and secretary to the recorder of deeds held by Mrs. Narka Lee Rayford of Ardwick, Md.

Also please assure him that it was a pleasure for me to work with him in the administration and find some one suitable to take my place.

to have any trouble from any source.

Will Practice Law
Mr. Froe retires to resume a large and lucrative law practice with the firm composed of himself as senior member, Harry J. Capehart, who now assists Senator P. Miller, who is a Commissioner in Chancery in the Circuit Court of Welch, West Virginia. The extent of this firm's practice may be shown by the fact that during the last year the McDowell County, out of 72 cases listed, the firm of Froe, Capehart and Miller represented 28. This firm has one of the largest law practices in the State of West Virginia, and generally appears on one side of every important case in the courts of McDowell County.

The secret of their success in acquiring and keeping business probably comes from their manager, Theodore N. Webb. For 30 years Mr. Webb, now only a trifle over duty, worked at the largest cleaners and dryers.

When Sunrise was formed he joined them planning their plant and securing experienced help through his former contacts. Sunrise now employs 14 people. Officers are O. Davis, president, D. Secretary, and Williams treasurer. Miss Autoway Burrus is the efficient office manager.

SCURLOCK USES NEW TYPE FLOODLIGHT
D.C. Photographer Has Shapped More Celebrities than Any Other in Country.
TAKES MOVIES, T00
WASHINGTON, D.C. — (ANP) — When one says "photographs" in Washington, the word is almost synonymous with the name of Addison N. Scurlock.
Mr. Scurlock, who has one of the best appointed studies in the country and who admits to having photographed more Negro celebrities than any other cameraman, has built up a reputation which is not confined to his own group.
Few official events occur about Washington, particularly if there is likelihood of their concerning people of color, but that Scurlock is on hand ready to snap them. He is accustomed with which he handles a shot whether a convention or at the White Hats stamps him as kin to the rest of Washington's photographers and not merely as a "colored" artist. They never have to wait on Scurlock. He is ready with the rest of them and one exposure is always enough.
Movies
Not content with mere studio work in which he build up a name known nationally, Scurlock has launched fields. He now takes movies using a regular Universal camera and special effects to create news reel of Washington events which is shown nightly at six Lichtman theatres here.
New Flashlight
Scurlock traces part of his success to a point which photographers everywhere might well emulate. In the past, he used a flash to create new and up-to-date equipment. Taking a government group in an interim last week, instead of using the time honored flash light which was used in the past, he interested in uploading officials by using new flashlight without noise, od or smoke. The light is an electric bulb of standard size put out by the General Electric. Go to the flashlight coated with a special preparation and having thin aluminum foil in crumpled sheet form within the bulb Its light, Scurlock says, is brilliant and can be used to take the taking of flashlights in places heretofore impossible to shoot.

HOOVER MAKES DELAYED APPOINTMENT TO LIBERIA
The Nation's Biggest All-Negro Weekly
WEST VIRGINIAN
NEW MINISTER
TO LIBERIA
Hoover Named Chas. E. Mitchell for West African Republic.
POST VACANT
Late Minister Francis Died in 1929.
WASHINGTON, D. C.
President Hoover last Thursday appointed Charles E. Mitchell of Institute, W. V.a., the United States minister and consul general to Liberia.
The post has been filled by a white American charge d'affaires since the death of William T. Francis from yellow fever in Monrovia July 15, 1929.
The selection of Mr. Mitchell for a diplomatic post was urged by his two state Senators, Guy D. GN and Henry D. Hatfield, and John R. Hawkins, chairman, and Dr. Emett J. Scott, vice chairman, of the colored voters' division of the Republican national committee. In last February they presented his name to Hoover for his considera-

He has been connected with West Virginia College Institute for the past 26 years. He has been its business manager for most twenty years. G.O.P. Leader. In recent presidential campaigns he has served in the eastern headquarters of the Republican party. In 1924 he was the director of the eastern colored division in the New York headquarters and was also connected with this division in the 1928 campaign. The salary of the United States minister to Liberia is only $5,000 a year, the lowest paid any diplomatic representative of the United States to his salary to 10,000 a year has the support of President Hoover and Secretary of State Henry L. Stimson.
Mr. Mitchell and his wife maintain a home here at 1805 New Hampshire Avenue, northwest. He is a man of independent means. His Mitchell is a traveller and a man who has been a frequent tourist visitor.
Wanted Abyssinian Post
Mr. Mitchel's first choice in a suit is said, however, to have been ministership to Appleton, for he was an applicant. Concise effort was made to land place for him, but due to the fact that Congress has never appropriated the money to build a legation at Adis Abeba, nor provided the salary of the envoy, the state department selected a white career man from its staff to serve as minister. Mr. Mitchel's tenure of office begins as Liberia emerges from an investigation of slavery within its bor-

KANSAS MAN IN PERRY
HOWARD'S OLD JOB
David E. Henderson, of Kansas City, Sworn in as Special Asst. to Atty. General.
PEACE OFFERING
Senator who Urged Appoint ment. Voted for Parker.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Following closely upon the appointment of Judge William C. Hueston of Indiana, as an attorney in the collector's office of the Post Office Department, the appointment of David E. Henderston, a collector and assistant to the Attorney General gives rise to the belief that Republican patronage is being switched from the South to the West.
Mr. Henderson was sworn in here Tuesday morning, September 16, in a ceremony as brief and simple as i was dignified. There was no fanfare of trumpets, no speeches, no galaxy of politicians. A few simple words from the chief clerk of the Department of Justice, an upraised hand, the click of a finger, the photograph-wielded by Scurlock, the photographer, and the event was over.
Thus the Kansas lawyer, who until a few weeks ago was the assistant county prosecutor of Wyandotte County, the seat of which is Kansas City, became a prominent prominence as he became the occupant of a position to which riany of the Negro barristers of the country had aspired, and the setting as he took it over was as simple and business-like as a special assistant himself, appears in he.
Not Widely Known
Unlike most colored men who come to Washington to assume national office, widely known. His activities in affairs, political, fraternal and professional, have been confined to his own state. He lived a bit off the beaten track and the world at large knew little of his accomplishments. Kevin D. David E. Henderson, and his friends there are confident that in the national arena he will make the same brilliant and effective record, that he has established in the field he left behind him. Judge Wm. C. Hueston, a desk in the Department of Justice," said Judge Wm. C. Hueston, himself a newcomer in Washington's official family, "the best Negro lawyer I know, and one of the best lawyers in the country, department, will have been added to Uncle Sam's staff."
Hueston's Classmate
Judge Hueston ought to know. He was Henderson's classmate in the University of Kansas where they both graduated back in 1904. Henderson led the class of 80 as honor man, and Mr. Hueston says, there was it: a member of the class within twenty per cent of the class of 80. Henderson carried his scholastic prominence into his later life. His record in private and official practice is pointed to in Kansas as a criterion. They tell of his brilliance as a prosecutor; his patriotic and Republican administrations, the most difficult cases which came into the county prosecutor's office.
Job Peace Offering
It was that sort of reputation which earned him his job. Senator Henry J. Allen sponsored his appointment. He had voted for the confirmation of Judge Parker: Negroes in Kauaas were up in arms. Senator Allen wanted to appease them and demanded a administration a job as peace officer.
he went back to Kansas to canvass for the right-mar and wherever he went around the state, he answered the question with the answer he "get Henderson." So although it is said he did not know him before, Allen selected Henderson, the hardworking prosecutor, and he expected to live and die in Kansas, City, Kansas.
But Allen is not resting with his appointment. Henderson he says, is to get a chance to show his worth. He starts at a salary of $5,000 and is to be a "working special assistant." The Senator says he will see, to it that Henderson gives an assignment to be in fine legal ability can be put into effective pay.
"I'm interested," said Henderson, who is a tall muscular brown man, bald, quiet and well poised with little of the usual bombast of a politician about him; "in doing what he must be assigned in a fashion when may he credit credit upon my upbring and the profession which I follow."
Mr Henderson expects his family in Washington later. He is married and has two children, a daughter in the University of Kansas and a son in high school.

DARKER CUBANS
SUFFER FROM
U.S. COLOR LINE
MACEO RECALLED
Black Man, Cuba's Geo. Washington. (By WILLIAM PICKENS, for ANP)
HAVANA, Cuba.—Antonio Maceo, Cuba's George Washington, was a Negro, so were his wife and his parents, but his son now living "passes for white."
Of course, he has a government job. He went to school in America and is married to a white girl from Syracuse, N.Y. That is not a crime, of course; but this man, whose mother and father were both Negroes, has been trying to forget that he is colored, shuns the people of his father's blood, and does an "Alice Rhinelander" by trying to pass for white, where it is absolutely unnecessary to do so.
Undoubtedly the Negro and colored element were the backbone of revolution here, but it was ample evidence with them, the darker people will be gradually ousted from the heritage which their fathers did so much to win for the nation.
The most that the colored people of the United States know of Anzib leader in the rebellion against Spain in Cuba, for a quarter century or so, and was killed in battle just before he was fighting for, was achieved. And American white people do not know that much about him: they know that he was gro, so nothing extraordinary is supposed to be a Negro. They do not even know that if Maceo lived to the club, which ordinary people from the United States have on the seasnort, not far from where the heroic statue of Maceo stands up, in from where he splendid monument of the kind in Cuba.
Exiled to Jamaica
A picture on the walls of the parliaments of the Club Atenas shows Maceo and nine of his companions in exile in Kingston, jamaica, in 1845. Kingston, jamaica. So many of the patriot leaders had been driven out by Spanish tranzyty that they had gathered for a photograph in Kingston, where ten of them found themselves at the fight. But they never stopped; while Marti traveled all over North and South America making speeches and seeking sympathy for the cause, the leaders of the fight belonged to Gonzo, kept up the fight. When the Spanish prevailed, they ran out to other islands or to Central America or Mexico, later to return and attack the French. When Maceo was once a refuge in Central America, he was warned not to attend the theatre one evening, as Spain had spies there to shoot him, went, because he had been warned of the threat, but he took the precaution to go unarmed, to remove all pretexts for killing him. One of his fellow patriots accompanied him.
24 Bullets
They were attacked and sound cover behind some object in the theatre. "His companion was instantly killed with a shot through the shoulder. Later when the doctor was probing for it and struck something the shoulder. Later when the doctor have found it." Macoe replied: "Are you sure that is the right one? There are seven bullets in my body, and have reached one of the others." Before the Spaniards finally got him in 1896, he had received twenty-four bullets from them. The last two got him.
"Now He. Died." Gomez was in the west end of Cuba, hard-pressed. His men were threatening to mutiny, as the Spaniards also had a line across the island, north and south, separating Gomez from Macoe's forces in the east end. Gomez, Macoe's force in the north, to Macoe to bring him help, if possible, else his shirting men would have to capitulate to the Spaniards. With barely 150 men, Macoe, like a mad lion, broke through the Spanish fortress. Then turned to attack them.
He was raging that day. He was killed as he stood up and fired without cover, but his men got to Gomez and new courage was put into the Cuban rebellion, until the United States (which, perhaps, he Spaniards did NOT sink) and Cuba later got its independence.
Monument to His Mother
No wonder the Cubans regard Maceo as their saviour. And now they are building a monument to his mother, who sent all her ten children to the public, to look as they reached the age of puberty, she gave them to revolution. They died for Cuba. The monument to the mother is being made in Europe, as the equestrian statue of the Black Ninja. This Negro woman was the typical "Spartan Mother" of Cuba.
Although Maceo was killed in 1896, his spirit lead the Cubans until the end of the 19th century. Maceo—they made myths about him, they deified him. He was "The Liberator."
Honor to Mrs. Maceo
When success came, and when in 1902 the United States was turning Cuba over to the Cuban government, his wife, also a Negro, was invited to visit the island to celebrate. When she reached the river and had to walk to her boat, the people spread the finest rugs in her path. On the other side of that river she found a slave-deported husband. And when she reached the Havana railway station, a great carriage of state was waiting for her. But the affectionate and expressive Negro woman, the horses to do the job, the people unhitched the horses, and themselves drew Senora Maceo to the palace.

POLICY BARON GETS WARRANT FOR BINGA
CHICAGO. (ANP) — A warrant for the arrest of Jesse Binga, president of the Binga State Bank, which was closed by the state auditor in August, was sworn out here last week by Walter Kelly, well-known policy king. The warrant charged larceny by baillee. The swearing out of the warrant is due to the uncertain knowledge of Binga's affairs which has prevailed since the bank was closed. The report is reported to have purchased $12,500 worth of stock in a proposed national bank which Binga was organizing last year. This bank has so far failed to materialize. Since the closing of the state bank, some of the purchasers of stock in the national bank have become apprehensive about the money they invested. The Kelly suit has started to find out where his money is and to seek its return, if possible.
Officers intrusted with the Binga warrant have so far been forced to list him among the "missing bankers."
Invested in Building
It is reliably reported, however, that Blinga took the money which was supposed to purchase stock in the national bank and used it, about $75,000, to establish an equity in the building of the old Kenwood National Bank, in which the new bank was bequeathed. Several weeks ago when he turned over his personal assets to a group of trustees who are reorganizing the State Bank for its reopening October 1, he failed to include the papers on the Kenwood Bank Building property. Since that time, it is said, the trustees have gained concern that it is the intention to sell the building as quickly as possible, so that all of the stockholders in the national bank may have their money back. There are said to be several would-be purchasers for the building. Some months ago, Kelly was kidnapped and held for days for $1 million. He was returned, it is believed after payment of a smaller sum. Kelly's action is in no way con-

INSISTS F.A.M. MASONS LOST IN ANNAPOLIS
ANNAPOLIS, Md.—James Munroe, white attorney for the York Rite Masons, insisted this week that the F. and A. M Masons headed by Willard W. Allen, have lost their suit involving $1,800.
The court case grows out of a rift in the ranks of the F. and A. Masons eighty years ago in which the majority of the Annapolis Universal Lodge went over to the York Rites. The minority group sued to compel them to relinquish the name and the funds in the treasury.
The court in its ruling advised that the P. and A. Masons had waited too long to press their case.
W. A. Hawkins, counsel for the F. and A. Masons filed an amended bill last week, but according to Monroe, the court will unlikely change its view that the F. and A. Masons filed an amended bill of $1,800 and name of Universal lodge belong to the York Rites Order headed by Morris Burke.

DETROIT MAYOR NAMES 4 TO AID UNEMPLOYMENT
New Executive Plans for Relief in Jobs, Food, Clothing
All Out of Work to be Registered.
DETROIT—As a first step in fulfilling his pre-election campaign promise of relief for unemployed, Mayor Frank Murphy appointed a committee of 75 prominent leaders of both races to handle this problem, this week.
Four Negro members appointed on this committee include John C. Daney, secretary Detroit Urban League; Mrs. Beulah A. Young, editor Detroit People's News; the Rev. Bradley, pastor Second Baptist church, and U.S. Newman, a student of economists.
7.000 Jobless
According to Mr. Dancey, there are more than seven thousand unemployed Negroes in Detroit, and he thought that the committee, which will not only try to find jobs but will distribute food and clothing to the needy families, will be able to reach hundreds thrown out of work by the financial depression.
It was agreed at a meeting of the committee that only those who had been resident in Detroit for a year would be given consideration and a complete registration of the unemployed will be made this week. This check-up will include not only length of residence but length of idleness and number of dependents.
Three days are scheduled for the registration of the unemployed, Mr. Roosevelt announced to the chairmen the various sub-committees Saturday.
The registration days agreed upon are Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week. The enrolling is to be carried on at the police precinct stations rather than at the voting booths as first suggested.
It is the committee's plan to care first of all for the needy families who require food, clothing and other necessities of life. The next step will be to place the registrants in jobs, which it is hoped, will be ready by the time the registration information is received. A careful check is to follow the registration to eliminate errors willfully or unconsciously made. This will be accomplished by personal visits to the registrants' homes.
Detroit's New Mayor Thanks the Voters
NEW YORK — Frank Murphy, judge of the Recorders Court in Detroit at the time of the Sweet case, who resigned from the bench in order for Mayor, has written a letter to the N.A.A.C.P. expressing his thanks for the loyal support given him during the trial. At the time Judge Murphy announced his candidacy, Walter White, acting secretary of the N.A.A.C.P., who handled the Sweet trials in Detroit, will have written a letter commending the spirit of fairness prevalent in Judge Murphy's court and saying in part: "I will have the united support of the colored citizens of Detroit. I know if I were a resident in the city you could certainly count on one ballot." On the primary election Judge Murphy writes: "Everything out all right. Your
people were as 'faithful' and true as any group could be. They went right out on the firing line for me and stood by me almost to a man."

OUST PRINCIPAL BEFORE HE CAN SERVE A DAY
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.—Although holding an A.B. degree from Howard University and an A.M. degree from Columbia, Thomas G. Anderson, recently elected to the principalship of the Crispus Attucks High School here, resigned when it was pointed out by the board that he lacked credits in history and physical education.
Two hours credit in these two subjects, it was said, was a prerequisite of the board, and Mr. Anderson, who was appointed to the post August 1, was forced out because he lacked these requirements.
Citizens Indignant
A number of patrons of the school have expressed indignation at the owing of Anderson and declare that it is their belief that the new principal has been forced out to make room for a former principal. The local school authorities are said to have known that Mr. Anderson lacked credits in the Department subjects, but a new education is said to have been responsible for the bringing of the matter to a head.
Gocs to Howard
In a statement Mr. Anderson declared: "I feel that my usefulness as principal at Attucks High School has passed. I have definitely decided to accept a position offered me by the president of Howard University as professor of education."
Mr. Anderson was named this summer to succeed Mathias Nolcox as principal of this BALTIMORE APPPOINTED ARMSTRONG SECRETARY

So the rev. Gwk the Rev. W.B. Nielson from the pulpit of Tindley Temple, on last Friday, said he would hold the truth so far as the editorial "We were concerned. So we had to smile at the implication. You see it pays to advertise!" He said he would "in-min his own paraphrase" — "light like that!" However, it was by no means the desire to ridicule, or poke fun, that prompted our attention, despite the fact that we were in the papers that this evangelist was "really on a show" —or words to that effect. Nor was it beaten down by the criticism of spectacularly amusing performance by those of our acquaintance who had attended.

As a matter of fact, there was a similar demonstration at Olympia Theatre Building. We had glanced in on our way to Trinkley Temple. We had a question which held our attention. And observing the reaction of that group which had lost self in passionate supplication was far from being our idea of the way in which to spend an
Directly behind us sat a woman who must not have heard the evangelist as well, throughout the entire evening, except, when she paused to sing. And sing! That voice was so powerful, so powerful, it was the singing which first greeted our ears as we entered the portals of the church, and gripped us from the monstrous chanting of polygain hymns. A young man with a resonant voice conducting, . . . It is a beautiful thing to be presented to the congregation.

Live in U.S., Visit Europe says Raymond P. Alexander
Philly Lawyer After Visiting Six Continental Nations, Likes France First, Germany and Austria Next, and England Last. France Would Adopt Jim Crow if it Had Many People of Color.
PARIS, France.—Raymond Pace Alexander, atto.ney, of Philadelphia, and assistant solicitor of that city, asked for his impressions of Europe replied that after visiting six countries and observing conditions closely two ideas stood out vividly in his mind.
The first was, he said, that America is the best place for the Negro; the second was, that every Negro, including even those who could not afford it, should visit Europe, in order to realize once and for always that the system of American color prejudice is an entirely false and monstrous thing—a something entirely constructed by the white Americans in order to exploit the
"The most fortunate thing in all the world for those original twenty-two slaves and their descendants in this abominable slave-trading system was that they were brought to America instead of being taken to some of the continental countries of Europe. If Europe Had Many Negroes "My reason cannot be given in a few words, but I may simply say that while the treatment of the Negro in France, Germany, Austria, and even in England is a thousand times superior to that of America, yet if any of these countries had so many welfellow people of colored people I fear the conditions would be similar to that of America. The temptation of the Europeans to exploit them would be too strong to resist.
"This has made itself clear in certain places in Paris, wherever there are sufficient numbers of Negroes to give a sort sort of cohesion, and as admittance into some of the big hotels. This is much more clearly illustrated in England where groups of colored people find great difficulty in obtaining admission there is strikingly like that of the States. Where there are few Negroes, there is practically no prejudice, as in the States."
*Greatest Drawback the South*
Mr. Alexander is of the opinion that the great drawback of the Negro is his remaining in the South. The larger the number of many European immigrants who go as pioneers to unsettled parts of the Northern States.
*When the Negro arrives in Europe,* says he themselves to his biased audience, "the anything different from preconceived notions, he will be taken as a landed, East Indian, French, Colonial, or anything else but an American Negro by boating, cooperating with the latter, the naturally dumb as regards knowing Negroes—people from my

Mr. Alexander said:
If Europe Had Many Negroes
own state insisted that Mrs. Alexander and I must be of French or Spanish parentage.
"The Negro, therefore, must travel a certain distance in order to give the lie to white American propaganda which says that we all criminals, liars, rapists, and are lazy. This is what French, German, and I must be me that t-richeans have told them.
"Another thing. We should learn at least one other language, preferably French. My knowledge of French and German helped me tremendously in the esteem of those peoples than it did sr. e of the white Americans, who as a rule, speak no other language than the one own. French's last name is his own. We are at once at home with him.
Paris Best
"I found the French attitude regarding the Negro 'the best. The French are liberal and seem to know no color prejudice. Al: they want is that you act like gentlemen. Germany and Austria are next. The peoples of those countries are cordial and agreeable and we do not mind. Indeed, one is actually an attraction, and they turn to look at you on the streets.
England Bad Off
"England is entirely different people than we are, for we are against you. Their air is one of complete indifference."
"The Negro, as I said, is best off in America. The war has sapped England's strength. The strength of the North-rate has decreased, the national debt is greatly increased, business is at its lowest cbb, and taxes so high, as to discourage work and savings and allow them to be true of Germany, but France is in a better position."
"Wages, I discovered, are small in all the countries, with the country living in Germany, in Germany, in factory employees work from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. from $. to $6 a week. Skilled labor gets from $10 to $12 a wee, which is less than a half a Negro labor gets in the United States."
"My advice is for the Negro to stay in America and work his way up there. Let the Negro educate self well and give to his children the education that America has to offer."

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER (1905)
It is now almost a matter of periodical expectation that, once in a while the grand juries will be held by the farmers and the shades and delinquencies of the House of Reformation for Colored Boys at Cheltenham. The state grand jury has presided over the treatment and inability of the reformatory to reform the boys sent hither. We are not surprised by the fact that, however, surprised that intelligent and toughful men of the dominant races continue to persuade them to reform, we are still defending the very best results in outfall of boys as well as in the interest of the community by means of a staff of officers and teachers of the white race.

An Irish Redhead
A square shooting, level headed presiding judge in the Recorder's Court of Detroit to say that Dr. Ossian Sweet, accused of killing a member of a white mob attacking his home, got a fair verdict.
Thanks to redheaded, Irish Judge Frank Murphy, to Clarence Darrow, Sweet's counsel, and to the NAACP, Dr. Sweet and the other defendants were all freed.
Last week this Irish Catholic put off his judicious robes and ran for mayor of Detroit. He was elected, and when the office of battle was over he wrote the national office of the NAACP, that the colored voters had stood for him as one man. Where are those who say that colored can-
A Harnessmaker Dies
Hampton Institute lost a 63-year-old harmlessmaker last week. The world knew him as Major Allen Washington, for 39 years a member of the institute's administration.
Forty-five years ago a six-foot country boy entered Hampton from Gloucester County, Virginia. His birthplace was no town, no city. He was just born "in the county," miles from a railway station. He was not only poor but educationally retarded. He worked by day and attended night school. It required six years for him to finish his trade and earn a Hampton diploma, and then two more years to convey his knowledge to other Hampton officials that he was wasting time making harms, that he could be better utilized in making men out of student cadets.
Eventually, he succeeded Major Moton as commander. Under him students of boys learned to obey orders and to orderly discipline that comes with cleanliness, orderless and punctuality.
Hampton, which had turned out a No. 1 harbinger and commandant of cadets, made only one mistake. Searching for a president when Dr. James E. Gregg resigned, it overlooked Major Washington. How long such color bars may guard the principal's residence, remain seen; but here they are. Hampton, which center the night classes but finally ranked for the highest office in the institute.
No Congressional Rosebed
No Congressional Rosebed
Congressman Oscar DePriest (Rep. III) sat in a Chicago police station between two gunmen, fingered two saved off shots, a pistol and a belt of ammunition while the gunmen confessed a plot to extort $10,000 from him.
According to Congressman DePriest, the gunmen had been offered $10,000 to kill him, but would spare his life, if Mr. DePriest would pay them twice that amount.
The note advised Mr. DePriest that if he needed the police it would react as a "steam-shelovet for his grave."
Instead of yielding to the extortionors, Mr. DePriest left his home and took refuge at his son's apartment. His body-guard was supplemented by a group of men parently yielding to the demands of the gang, two gunmen were captured who confessed.
They identified themselves as allied with his political opponents who resented the Congressman DePriest. With half of the gang in the lock-up, Congressman DePriest may return to his own home and get a good night's sleep. By now, however, he probably realizes—to paraphrase the words of Richard B. Harrison, who plays the Lord in "The Wives of the Wives—Being a Congressman ain't rosebed."
Women's Affairs
The Rev. J. L. Black, pastor of the Zion M.E. Church; stirred Cincinnati last week with a sermon in which he protested against married women be ousted from schoolrooms to make way for the young damselfly recently graduated from college.
The Rev. Mr. Black must have been out of town to attend the event, he thinks that girls, either single or married, need any help from him to obtain their objectives.
They pretest of men in the past decade, women have shortened their skirts until, in the language of today, "it's nobody's business."
They have now equal voting rights and have elicited them by an Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
They made the whole country dry with their W.C.T.U. and having tired of the experiment, have made it fashionable to carry a flask on the hip or in the pocketbook.
Prostitution and free love use to be equally allowed, and wouldn't approve of it.
When the Prayer Day clothes and thin clothes without the women paying much attention to him, the Protestant clergy might learn a valuable lesson, and initiate the man to stand on his hands, a dog that he would order to stand on his hands, a dog that he would let surrender that the dog was in the mood to do it.
Of course we know that the public schools belong to the public and men have a say, and a say but if the men are wise they'll change the subject every time a single girl brings it up.
The Parker Plague
Many a vote was cast against Senator Cole Blease (Dem, S.C.) because of his defense of lynching, his disrespect for law and the Constitution, his lack of civility and his exhibition and his primary preference for a drink. Please leapt other votes because Organized Labor remember his vote for the Supreme Court nomination of Judge John P. Baker. Beware of the Labor, the proprietary Senators are having a hard time of it in the primaries; and still rougher going is ahead of them in the general election. It is not as profitable as it used to be to kick in the pants and the pants may have a brick in the hind pocket.
Woofterism—a Fallacy
When everywhere throughout the South, average colored schools are found to be below average white schools, it is evident there must be some reason for it. In Georgia, which spends $78 per child in colored schools and $28.4 per child in white schools. There the public has invests $7 per child in colored schools and $48 per child in white schools. Nearly 74 per cent of black children are in school but 90 per cent of the whites are in school. Authorities close colored schools in order to force the pupils into the cotton fields. Boys are encouraged to leave and go to work at 13, and girls are offered jobs as nurses for children at 12. The truant law is not enforced. Why? Good explanation as any comes from T. J. Wooter, white, in his new book "Black Yeanemann" (on St. Helena Island, S.C.) just published by Henry Holt and Company. Mr. Wooter, discussing educational irregularities in South Carolina, which parallel those in North Carolina, is obliged to equalize educational opportunities. It is evident that the school authorities . . . do not consider that equality in the matter of school-tax burdens necessarily involves the obligation to equalize educational opportunities.
This point of view cannot be condemned offhand, if equal educational opportunity is to be understood as meaning the establishment of common standards for Negro and white schools.
The Negroes do not possess enough knowledge to work with white standards. If such standards were to be maintained, the additional costs would have to be defrayed by the white
The (average) county is not overly wealthy, and is having a difficult struggle to accordance with acceptable standards. These standards would be jeopardized in equal education. Equality of educational opportunity as between Negroes and whites would, therefore require a degree of altruism on the part of the Negro in which it is scarcely medical to expect.
Under the circumstances, probably all that can be asked in behalf of the Negroes is that at least as much as they contribute in school taxes, and that no part of their tax monies be used for the support of the white schools.
Mr. Woofer is an enlightened white educator and a member of the faculty of the University of North Carolina. He defends the liberal atmosphere of that university and the program of education in that state, Mr. Woofer enunciates a theory ancient and un-Christian, unscientific and fallacious, impractical if extended, and altogether subversive of the best interests of the state and the nation.
What city, county, or state has a right to spend only taxes collected from Negroes on colored schools, why may it not also segregate Jews and Catholics, too? Why may it not provide expensive educational facilities that pay taxes on larger institutions and enterprises and provide superior facilities for those who own, say, merely a two-story house.
If any city, county, or state has a right to spend only taxes collected from Negroes on colored schools, why may it not also segregate Jews and Catholics, too? Why may it not provide expensive education to Negroes, who have property interests and provide only cheap, inferior facilities for those who own, say, merely a two-story house. Wooter's fallacious theory, long ago exploded by those whose spectacles are not beclouded with races hate, fails to take into account that those who pay rent are also able to exploit the owners of properties to pay the taxes on their holdings.
Wooster's fallacious theory, long ago exploded by those whose spectacles are not beclouded with race hate, fails to take into account that those who pay rent are also taxpayers. It is they who pay the rent, not the taxpayers. Their properties to pay the taxes on their holdings. If owners of large estates did not collect sufficient in their rentals to pay taxes, it would not be profitable to own any property. Congress has authorized the United States contemplated property ownership, but upon native birth or naturalization. If Wooster is right, then millionaire taxpayers of the South have to demand a system of blue-stocking public schools from the government but also poor whites shall be excluded. If Wooster is wrong, then the country-wide testing of public school discrimination in the South will be invalid. The National Association will have the full support of thinking citizens in its war on Wooster. That pernicious doctrine governs the conduct of public education in rural Maryland (not Baltimore), where the South overtaxes. We offer the help of Maryland to the N.A.A.C.P. in launching the first test case.

She informed me that I would find the article on the third floor balcony. On the third floor, I was met by a salesman who inquired as to what I wanted. After telling him, he directed me-back to the basement. told him that a salesman in the basement desired was-to be found on this floor, to which he replied that it's the policy of the house not to color people on the third floor.

Here's a Baltimore Ward Where Registration of Colored Democrats Creates Alarm. To the Editor:
This story may interest you. There is a political storm brewing in East Baltimore. There has been considerable dissatisfaction in the seven ward, in which Mr. Adolph Shuck
There is a group of voters under the leadership of Mr. Snuck, who is being fighting Mr. Snuck for equal representation, which he has so far refused. Snuck is a colorado judge and clerk. Snuck is a plaintiff colored judges and clerks.
But since the last primary fight, the Democratic leader, Wen Gray, who is the colored Democratic leader and resides in the Bronx, has been requesting that he be registering colored Democrats, and the above group are not putting forth any effort to pre-register.
There are rumors of turning the ward over to Mr. Gray by advocating a stay-at-home movement. OBSERVER.

We are living in a novelistic age which demands an extraordinary attraction to get the public's attention to give unto them the thing which they need most. The surface of my program bears this sign.

The only thing I ask is that the observer tell the whole truth without reservations. I have been faked so long by novel preachers, evangelists and tricksters, before I came on the scene. that it is not strange that I should at first be doubted by cold business men. I should not be tricked by the drop of my life's blood in doing my bit to redeem the name of colored evangelism among men.

Quiz All Candidates, Republicans, Democrats and Socialists, as to Where They Stand on the Reason for Jim Crow Car Law. To the Editor:
I do not think that you can render a more important service to the community, at this time, than (1) reproducing in your columns the text of the "jim-crow" on account of color, travelling within the borders of the commonwealth; and, (2) by addressing an individual communication to each person, Democrat, Republican or Socialist for election to the Maryland General Assembly. Now just is the time to find out how these several candidates are important to the people of Maryland. I say to "the people" of Maryland, for it not only concerns members of our group in particular, but men, women and children, of the number of our people are employed by members of the white group, and the white employers can not receive the best and most efficient service to the public community have reason to mistrust the good will and the sincerity of those who employ them. Enforced submission to the strong will and the sincerity of those minutes to the best most cordial race relations.
This Jim-crow ear law is odious and infamous, and is absolutely unjustifiable, and it is difficult for a man to know what a woman can knowingly vote for any person who is opposed to the repeal of this infamous measure, a number of the next legislature and publish what he or she says in the AFRO-AMERICAN, so that we may know how to vote.

No Compromise with Jim Crow, Says Coles, Who Thinks the Legislatures, the Courts, and 'the President Who Uphold Discrimination are Sick' To the Editor.
Mr. Clarence L. Benton, Box 404, Bayhead, N.J., writing in the AFRO-AMERICAN September 1989 edition of *The Atlantic*, wants to know whether the writer has ever been a soldier, sailor or marine. For his edification the writer would like to inform him that he was not a soldier, and that he accomplishes it more than anything that he has ever done in his life. At that time the writer wanted to see the world and did not have any money to buy a suit. He complains his desired end. He is not a bit patriotic and does not sing nor stand when patriotic songs are played. He pointed out that Colonel Davis said that he was opposed to segregation and jim-crowism. Therefore, he was going to leave his job and be a soldier, certainly does not act as if he is opposed to it, because while he may have to take orders as long as he is in the Army, he does not make him take the jim-crow job at Wilberforce. Almost any Negro will take any job given to him, and he will not take any job given to him the banquet or the other Negros who belong to the Republican party, or in order that he may say he is the only Negro holding such a job or Negro to hold it, which does not mean anything. There are no double standards for right and wrong. You are either right or wrong, and you are either right or wrong, and you are either right or wrong, he is wrong, it does not matter whether he is in the army or the navy, and it wouldn't matter if you are any more than if Colonel Benjamin Davis did it.
Personally I do not believe in segregation, ther- we. I will not teach in a "segrated school" because I do not want to ride on the Jim crow train when I am gong home to see my mother because I am not able to see her. I do not want to cow is a hellish thing and I further think that the legislative bodies of the states that make such laws and the courts that uphold them, and that I am not able to cow and if I had my way I would do like Shakespeare said: "I would kill, and kill some more, until I got my full manhood rights."

Russia Worries the U.S.
The Lynching Wave.
Racial Coudice.
Herbert Lewis, white American electrician, whom the Russian government kicked out of that country when he tried to take the American race, the Russian Stalagmind tractor plant, told a Riga, Latvia, newspaper correspondent that the Russians are holding 450 white Americans as slaves in the Soviet Union to the presence of Robert Robinson, N.e.g. o mechanical, and to his enjoying the common privileges of the plant in accordance with the Russian system. No one was against Russia against the Soviet Union, it is more easy to believe that those 450 whites took some part in the effort to force American race prejudice down the chain of the Soviet government, that Russia was against as rigidly as she is against capitalistic exploitation.
We do not believe that American Negro leaders are giving enough serious thought as to what is going to happen in the open to all races, white and black alike. Here is a land into which white mechanics and skilled workers are pouring every day. We do not believe that the door of opportunity there to the skilled Negro workers, clerks, scientists and others denied opportunities in this country? Whole world is coming to see that Russia means business, and that she is destined to have an unmistakable influence on the economic affairs of the America. But once America, just emerging from a radical revolution headed by one George Washington, worked out her doctrines of democracy, Russia is bringing the world a new and better brand of government than even America brought by dumping English ten into Bohemia, bringing it by revolution and war.
A group of Southern men, inspired we suspect by that courageous Southerner, Dr. Will Alexander, has organized to probe the cause of the unusually large number of deaths with the inclusion of such investigators as Dr. Howard Odum of the University of North Carolina, Dr. Charles S. Johnson of Fisk University and such open-minded editors as Fess Millon. This probe may take a highly scientific turn and be of great benefit as to more evils than lynching. There is no telling what these investigators may find when they look frankly into their sympathies. We believe they will without doubt reach. They will find that lynching is but one of the violent symptoms of a more deep-seated interracial malady prevalent in this country. You can't eradicate the cancer of lynching by teaching lynching as long as you allow the germs of prejudice to flow through the bloodstreams of our everyday life.
The church which sets up a color bar, the business organizations which emphasize racial prejudice, the colleges which their factories, the colleges which tell their white students that they cannot work out human problems standing beside Negro boys and girls, and even the philanthropy which does out a few problems. The colleges plotted Negro group, while it closes the industrial door of opportunity in his face, are all directly responsible for the lynching evil. Therefore not only have a probe, but a penetrating study of this lynching evil by all means.
. . .
"If we are not afraid that we cannot hold our own in fair competition with the Negro, then why do we not give him at least half a chance to succeed in marrying a Mansoura directress living in a recent issue of the Crisis.
Here is a question which should be shouted into the ears of every white man or woman who thinks he must enslave, lynch, pervert and exploit the Negro to maintain his position.
Frankly, the white lyncher is tolerated by white Christians, leaders in business and so-called respectable people of some sections of the country, because of the vague, yet effective, fear that the Negro will not natural appeal to white women as will keep them from marrying Negro men.
There have been some Negro papists, as they have seen the Negro men, but no one sees the law cannot take care of the few degenerates of both the races which exist. The real fear comes from the feeling of white men that some white women will be as free as they themselves have been.
Here is the cowardice, the lack of confidence, and the yellow streak which produces the mob and which seals up the consciences of those who abiding white people when the mob has wrought its havoc in their community.
If white mothers and fathers have to instill principles of white supremacy into their children it is not easy to believe that they are supreme, and that bloodthirsty mobs are not necessary to protect their womanhood and manhood. Thousands of white people are happily, are coming to this conclusion of their own accord.

Why Poor, Ragged Negroes,
When Arrested, Do Not Behame
Like I Poor, Ragged
Whites. Slavery Enslaved
Bodies, But it Did Not Always Enslave Minds.
BY NANNIE H. BURROUGHS
Eleasor R. Wembridge, "white, referee of the Juvenile Court of Cuyahoga, Ohio, contributed a real interest article on "Negroes in court, the American Mercury for September.
Miss Wembridge discusses the behaviour of Negroes in court and the spirit of Negroes in rags.
She does not understand how Negro can understand how court—court what hurts him, a smile, get over what hurts him, like a child, and wear rags that make him look like odds and ends left over from a rummage sale, and withal hold his head high, look people in the face and
Miss Wembridge cannot understand how people can be in trouble and in rags, and be happy. Of course she cannot understand Negro culture in spades in million short can understand Negro philosophy. We forget and forgive. We wear the world as a loose garment. We smile and grin, giggle and laugh. We wear our generous leggings. Negroes have our greatest capacity for merry and for happiness.
Leading Actors in Greatest Social Tragedy. It is all due to the fact that for 250 years we were the leading actors in America's greatest social tragedy—slavery. We made the best of what we knew and that we had a Better Day A-Coming. We smiled and sang and called our oppressors "honey" when our backs were aching and our hearts were bleeding. We had to play the park. In other words, we had to know what we were happy to make "tend."
Thus acting became very real to us and it will take 250 years for the Negro to get through "making it like." that is why Negroes will become more and more difficult to do not know any better, yet. Superior Americans; Major in Happiness.
The fact of the matter is that Negroes are superior Americans because they really major in the pursuit of happiness. that the Negro's valuable contribution to American life, and America needs that contribution.
Like Wmbridge wonders why Negroes in rags—in odds and ends—and in custody do not behave like white people. Well there are two reasons; all white people thus pampered are a sorry, woe-begone, pitiful looking lot. They look too banged up for Negroes to *con* want to look at them, and they "silly do not want to look like poe." They don't want to be bossed, had an aversion to being bossed by white whites. Wore Jeans Gratefully; Took Medicine Honestly.
Secondly, Negroes lived in rags and in custody for 250 years and they took their medicine daily. They were gravely frightened. My grandmother was what she proudly called "an F.F.V. Slave." They tell me that she was a most remarkable woman. She was very strong. They tell this interesting story of her attitude towards slavery. She would say: "Yes, honey, I was in slavery, but wasn't no slave. I never made me hold my head down and there was a whole palec' of Negroes just like me; we just couldn't be broke. We obeyed our masters and we kept on saying 'deliverance will come.' We ain't no hung-down head race. We were poor, but proud." That proud Virginian would say, "I will kill, hold your spirit up, and that helps you to hold your head up. Don't let your spirit down."
She said: "I used to hold my head up so high that sometimes they would say, 'Maria, why don't you look down at the ground?' I would say, 'Look, I'm not a ground hog. I am looking up at God because that's what He made me for. Honey, they slaved my body, but they didn't slave my mind. I was thinking high my mind, and I got to live high, Walk together, children, don't get weary. There's a better day a-caming in dis here land." The framers of the Constitution contend that and clearer vision of the future of America. "There's a great day a-coming in dis here land." That's why Negroes can hold up their heads and "strut" in rags; they can walk in the rain, be bleedable in Balihelias. The Negro has a future in America. He feels it in his bones.
Slavery Developed. Musterous Optimism.
Slavery developed in 18th-century an optimism that is mysterious and magnetic. That optimism is our most valuable inheritance. Negro slaves sang, laughed, and "saw" the world on their masters and on the Lord. Deliverance came and they just can't keep from being happy because "there is a better day a-coming" when we get right down to work for it as did our fathers. Let us not lose their spirit, even if we were the body of the court and of American prejudice. Laugh and work. Deliverance will come, and other Americans like Eleanor Wembridge will "stand second to none" in their admiration for the magnificence of Negro art—the art of living without being in the game of life and are mad at the whole world.

"Africans have much in common with Europeans, who express themselves in their proverbs more than in to get away from the notion that they are in an inferior and barbaric state. The African people are less civilized and more barbaric than they."—G. J. BENDER.

The Laughs Behind the News By RALPH MATTHEWS
President Hoover has just appointed a new minister to Liberia. This really isn't a position. It's an imposition.
Of course, he needs a warm shoulder, but that's just the trouble, the honors are likely to be overdone, and it will be so hot that so will he.
An appointment like that just at this time would be wonderful break from the cold, but not to lay in next winter's coal.
But times are so tight that if President Hoover was looking for that kind of man, he could send a shipload.
The job would be coveted a great deal more than the contract provided that a US destroyer would dock honors and deliver about 50 pounds of ice.
This too, would have its short-comings, because the average householder has enough trouble keeping his eye on his renalator having to watch the whole man.
Of course, a man feels honored representing his Government across the seas, but a chap can't be but so dignified in a high hat and his birthday suit.
Some people might get sore knees because the clothes don't wear any clothes, but why should they go around all dressed up? They seldom have company.
Liberia declared war on Germany because her minister ate too much and they wanted to send him home.
The Liberian Army would have invaded France much earlier, but our troops were months away from a boating into that direction.
The Liberian Navy could have whipped the Kaiser in short order if he had only come out and fought fair fist.
America sent a commission to investigate the slave traffic and found almost as many state officials mixed up in it as we have mixed up in bootlegging, over here.
Our statesmen vote dry and drink we and theirs hold slaves and vote free.
. . .
When they hold an election in Liberia they only allow the friends of the President to vote.
Over here they allow everybody to vote, but they only count the ones they like.
People who think Liberians are savages are sadly mistaken. From there there isn't a miniature golf course in the whole country.
The school system in Liberia is very poor, so they have a better excuse for having so much more dumbbell than we have.
There is hope, however, that when the Gcoaday Rubber people take interest in the curriculum will be more elastic.
They see the reason that the Liberians could not get a very big loan when they came to America was because they had no liquid assets. We didn't know they had prohibition.
. . .
The towns in the hinterland are composed of a group of little huts surrounded by a each of which each family lives separately. It must be just like a big apartment house.
Everytime a man goes out into the jungle his family is afraid he will be killed by a lion just like the families are afraid the old man will be killed by a Mack truck.
There is one consolation. While an automobile might mess you up pretty badly, the driver won't. He sits on its hammers and eat you.
CHIPS FROM THE QUARRY
The Proofreader Talks
It appears to be quite difficult for some writers to adjust their work to the fact that there are a few nouns in the language, like "king" in "S" and also a singular form (meaning something different) which does not end in "S." The word of this class most common with in newspaper work is "card." Ordinarily, people will write: "The king is playing in S." They played or "Cards were the pleasure of the evening." In these sentences, "cards" is singular being the name of a paper, a tennis ball, tennis rackets and checkers. It is true that we play "cards" with cards, and it is proper enough to play cards with checkers and checkerboard as "cards"—saying, for example, "His cards were played in the wrong order." But when referring to cards, we should say: "Cards was played." Consider the "game" of tennips. Probably the cards were played for the reason, perhaps, that the most of the "playing" is done with the ball not the net. We say, "Cards are a fine game," and surely no one would say: "Checkers are the game I like best." merely because the name of the game ends in "S."
Another class of words which often leads people to use a plural verb to describe such words as *mathematics* *athletics*, *measures* *mumps*. These words, like *mathematics* and *measures*, are almost in almost all constructions. We can scarcely imagine anyone saying or writing: "Mathematics are the means or the or." The measures are in our family, or "Mumps are a dangerous disease." In short, words are not singular or plural, and are forms. Use is the determining factor. Here again the squeamish have a sense of humor, and they enjoy the pleasure of the evening" sounds "funny," may just as easily put the statement in some other form, and may not let sound dominate over sense.
F. H. M. M.
Under the theory that the taking of each newspaper of a bunch of stolen-papers constitutes a separate crime, the judge recently sentenced a man to 800 days in jail for stealing thirty newspapers from a so-called honor rack on the street—thirty days for each paper. You've already guessed it—colored.
Of course, we all know that justice is blind—but may be she can extend her hand—as did old Isaac, and feel the texture of one's hair.
What Shall We Eat and Drink? the Basic Problem
The Negro's Proneness to Show and Display Without a Supporting Basis, Adds Gretesqueness to a Tragic Situation.
BY KELLY MILLER
Ours is an economic age. Jews, who are the most religious temperament, are a warm climate, urged his hearers to "think beyond the world where or wherewithal we shall be cloaked."
People Talk Idealism but Pursue the Practical.
We still urge upon our choosest yeas the higher phases of professional life think of the things from above, rather than upon things below. The minister should think in terms of the things from above and in the hands of the physician should seek to promote individual and social health, not money or material reward. The lawyer is concerned with justice, rather than with promotion to knowledge to promote knowledge with incidental regard for salary.
The workman is worthy of his hire, the professional man can make of money is to enable him to function efficiently in his profession. Any more than this is a handicap, and the generality of our species, their time is spent like that of the beasts of the field or the fowls of the air—inquest nourishment and creature
In my earlier days, when I was swayed by a more intangible ideology, I greatly criticized Booker T. Washington because he was disposed of by the same denomination of money and material substances. But the more I see of the hard struggle of the Negro to make the ends of life meet, the more Washington's intuitive sense. Negroes Emulate a Standard Incomes Worl's Maintain. The Negro is up against the white man's standard, without the white man's opportunity. He strives to keep up his style of living without his work or income. He contemplates. I often wonder what is to become of the Negro in our great cities and centers of population. As one goes along the streets of Harlem, New York, he sees the magnificent palaces built, and a generation ago for white people of position, income and wealth, now turned over to Negroes without any such supporting basis, one cannot surprise the suggestion "What of the
In South Parkway, Chicago, the visitor is shown miles of palaces built for millionaires, now occupied by Pullman porters or men and women. The same is true of practically every large city of the North. The poor Negro is strained to the breaking point to keep up the standard of living imposed upon him, with few openings of remunerative employment. The Negro will persist in leaving the farm where he has a function and rush into the cities where he is helpless. He is unable to demonstrate ability for self help. He is as dependent upon the white employer for sustenance as the suckling babe upon the milk of his mother. His proneness to show and display, without a supporting basis, gives grotesque to a little situation.
Hopeful Examples Seen in the Desert of Deservir
There are, however, hopeful cases in the desert or despair. Negroes in increasing numbers, let us hope, are acquiring efficient skills and will tend indispensable to their white employers. Enterprising Negroes are promoting associated enterprises, such as banks, insurance, and real estate, to survive after the unworthy and the unfit have fallen on failure. A few Negroes are struggling against heavy odds, along lines of individual and partnership business as well.
Locally, in Chicago and New York, likewise in several other cities, attempt has been made to help all but mopup small business in segregated Negro communities, to engage Negro clerks and helpers, in those presumed supported wholly by the Negro business. The success in this line has been amazing in Chicago. The Negro Business League has sponsored Negro grocery stores under Negro ownership, management and control which promises well for the future. The Questions Recur—What? Wherewherithat? But after all of these helpful opportunities and the economic and industrial status the full quota of their possibilities, the questions still recur: What is to be the final outcome of this business and where will the drink and wherewherithat shall we be clothed?

DYNAMITE IN NYE'S SCRUTINY OF DIXIE VOTING
Investigation Would Jeopardize Seats of Ten Senators. MANY CAN'T VOTE
Only Virginia Forced to Open Primaries.
NEW YORK. — That there is political dynamite in Senator Nye's investigation of Senatorial primary elections, is the conclusion of Mark Sullivan, Washington correspondent, the Washington correspondent of the New York Herald-Tribune, who bases his belief upon the prospect that the exclusion of Negroes from voting privileges in the South may enter the field of inquiry. "Whether Senator Nye's investigations of Senatorial primaries will extend into Southern States is one of the most explosive questions of the campaign," writes Mr. Sullivan. The test is taken by group not mainly Republicans, but rather to be described as Progressives in Radicals in Washington, New York and elsewhere.
What this group has in mind is to use the Nye committee as a means to open up the very explosive question of Negro participation—or, more accurately, non-participation in Democratic primaries in the South. That issue, carries the end to which the question wants to carry it, which questions the right of at least ten Democratic Senators to their seats.
Scope of Probe
Mr. Suillvan quotes the scope of (c) investigation ordered by the Senate as being, besides the examination into improper expenditures, to cover "the use of any other means or influence which would not only be of public interest but which would aid the Senate in deciding any contest involving the right to a seat in the United States Senate." He adds: "That language means, as respects Southern Democratic primaries, the participation or non-participation of Negro voters."
Where Dynamite is
The immediate dynamite in the situation Mr. Sullivan d'usses as follows:
"The matter is acute just now, for two reasons. The National Association of Colored People has grown confident because of its successful part in preventing the confirmation of an appointee to the Supreme Court, Judge John J. Parker, of North Carolina, who has publicly taking a position adverse to Negro participation in politics.
Victory in Federal Court
"In the second place Negro voters have just won a decisive advantage in the Federal courts. A United States Circuit Court has declared unconstitutional a condition of the Democratic primary system in Virginia which excludes Negroes. Apparently the Virginia Democratic officials concorded on the decision, for just this week they have permitted the time limit for an appeal to expire, and the decision stands. Want Disfranchisement Serumized? The net of the situation is that there are energetic persons who are determined to use the Nye committee as a step toward a large end. The purpose is to have the Senate debate and pass upon the question whether the Senator is entitled to his seat if he won it in a primary in which Negro voters were deprived of participation.

Harlem is All Het Up Over Possibilities of Judgeships
Democrats and Republicans, both Get "Breaks" which Insures Election of Two to $12,000 Posts for Ten Years.
added to the spending change of the Looking deeper under the surface you will, of course, understand why a result of these two judgements.
NEW YORK. — If Harlem, always cocky because of her reputation of being the most interesting Negro community in the world, went into the dumps last year when she failed to catch step with Chicago and send Hubert Delany to Congress, she feels she is "sitting pretty" now that Francis Rivers and John C. Hawkins are practically assured two of the eight new judgeships created in New York by the last legislature. While leaders say they will get that Congress seat yet, they are not letting the matter keep them from contemplating two $12,000 per year jobs with ten-year terms.
All Pleased
By a strange political line-up, Democrats and Republicans alike are getting a "break" in this matter of judgements. The Negro group gets two jobs which the regular Republican organization candidates, Francis E. Rivers and John Clifford Hawkins, will in all probability fill, the Democrats get the Negro support for a possible presidential candidate, Gov. Andrew J. Browne. Govern, and if he is nominated for that post, and the Republicans add two more important places for patronage distribution in Harlem. Everybody says it is good business for everybody.
Not Such a Bargain
nation are Radicals or Progressives primarily, rather than Republicans, and Republicanism is not their motive, although the Republicans presumably would benefit. Anyone familiar with American history since the Civil War knows this is a decidedly explosive situation."

NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y.-Dr. R.

Dr. Dett, who is known to a great many Falls people as "Nate," and who grew up and went to school here, told of the choirs welcome among Plymouth, the memorable afternoon when the Hampton singers were entertained at No. 10 Downing Street, as guests of Premier Ramsey MacDonald and his daughter, Eleanor, who was at hallowed Westminster, where no other foreign choir had ever performed.

everybody is happy. The legislative enactment brought into existence eight new judgements. Six will go to whites and two to Negroes under the tentative understanding. These two go to the Tenth District, created out of the old Seventh which includes Harlem and which included Harlem. The boundary lines of the new Tenth District starts at 110th Street and Fifth Avenue and goes to the Harlem River which it follows to 156th Street, to St. Nicholas Avenue, then south to 16th Street. Here of course, is where the bulk of the Negroes live. This district is divided into aldermanic districts. Francis E. Rivers comes from the 19th, which is under the leadership of Col. Charles W. Filmore. Republished in Oxford Hawkins comes from the 21st, eastern half, of which Charles W. B. Mitchell, an architect, is the executive.
They Divide
This 21st district is interesting, from the fact that its 'cade' hip is divided between a white and a Negro man to introduce the judgeship bill in the legislature. Later it was reintroduced by Rivers. The men are not expected to register any kick against the two judgeships going to Negroes; first, because they will get six themselves, and second, be use many of them. The men are in business and can be seriously "hit" by more ways than by votes. While it fight between the four candidates in the primary was spirted, it was dignified and courteous, our side tills, but it all left Hasselm rejoicing that at least a total c* $240,000 of good coin of the realm will be added to the spending change the year as a result of these two judgeships.
Harlem Barber Union Does Not Work
NEW YORK, (ANP) — The Barbers' Union here is not functioning as it was expected to, according to the survey. The price of haircuts is back to the old price of forty cents and the shave, of all things, has dropped to the level of twenty. That all is not well is suspected by the barbers who were mulleted of ten dollars each to join the union, where among them are shorter working hours at higher wages. One barber declared that he had received his twenty-five dollar stipenp to one hundred and touffle for the rest of the time jus as he did in preunion days. The wise guys are wondering how the new barbers who wanted to raise a little money and saw an opportunity with the colored barbers of New York to do it. One of the barbers each would met someone a tidy little sum.

NEW YORK, N.Y.—(ANP)—A cable from Roland Hayes to his management in Boston refutes a rumor which has had some circulation to the effect that he intends to rebel against the American citizenship. The cable reads:
"I have no intentions of changing my American citizenship. I have never entertained such a thought. My manifested interest in America and the philanthropic work to which I devote practically the whole financial burden of my family, identify aid and the maintenance of an experimental farm in rural Georgia directed to the purpose of community uplifts are of such import to me that an idea of the sort is beyond my imagination."

More Empty Apartments Now than at Any Time Since World War.
Negroes Moving Up Edgecomb, St. Nicholas and Bronx
NEW YORK, (ANP.) — Landlords are "viewing with alarm" the houseshouse now shows the largest number of empty apartments seen since before the World.
High rents are tumbling, houses are being repaired, and remodeled to make them structurally all in the same place, which followed the recent Wall Street crash
Were Tyrannical
Prior to that memorable occasion, landlords were tyrannical in their refusal to make repairs to make repairs, refused to clean apartments, refused to paint, then forced tenants to accept second hand furniture, lorded it over their "subjects."
Now the condition is reversed. Everywhere there is a death of ten or eleven at 130th Street and 155th Street. Coupled with the financial crash which forced so many out of work, is the building of new apartments and the opening of other areas for colored tenants, the houses of which so far surpass those the folk formerly occupied, there is little comparison between them. Moving Higher Up Not only are colored folk moving higher and higher in St. Nicholas Avenue, Edgecombe Avenue and the cross town streets, but also those are moving into the Bronx and further down in Harlem, mingling on the one side with the Jews of the Bronx and the Latins of lower Harlem. Lower in each of these two districts and greedy landlords who formerly extracted $75 per month for a four-room apartment are now not renting, who will now $50 to $60 per month for the same apartment.

NO MORE ALL-COLORED FILMS IN SIGHT
Dixie Presjudice Narrows Market for Negro-Starring Plays.
WERE TOO RITZY
Actors Themselves also Help
Kill Demand by Actions.
BY HARRY LEVETTE
(For the Associated Negro Press)
LOS ANGELES.—The hundreds of extras who depend upon the call of "action, camera!" for their livelihood will be happy to know that a big season in production is being planned in those departments of the various studios.
Paramount, Universal, R.K.O., Fcx and all the big studios that grate a dozen or more talkies at the same time, have large programs for the winter season and some of these plays will use hundreds of Negro extras.
The smaller studies, such as Tiffany, Harold Lloyd, Christie's, Pathe, and others have a busy season with more hopes for the "John Gilberts" and Nancy Carrolls" in senia.
No More All-Colored Casts
It's a safe bet, "an you can lay to that, mates"; there will be no more all-colored-cast movies, "bible," "Hallelujah," and the Octavus Ray Cocholon two reelers at Christies or the "Wild-Cat" two reelers at Pathe. "And Why?" you ask, gentle reader. An, that's a long part of the reason lies in the fact that studios would have to lesson or teach the stars if colored stars headed the productions. Also, the South, which forms a large field for the sale of the films, was not quite ready to star in the real sense of the word. For instance, Moran and Mack, white, in "Anybody's War," was not ready to star with the Southern theatregoers than any two colored comedians heading the feature would do. They were like, but Paramount releases them, and Paramount did not want to hurt itself making mixed-cast pictures. So all productions on Cohan's funny stories were stopped. Negro life were stopped.
Ob So Rltzy
Then, too, this decision was reached sooner because of the trouble the team had made stars and featured actors of the race. Stepin Fetchet probably bears the tears of the actions, temperament blant display of new-born prosperity, and actions in general that worried the studio officials, discredited the race, and contributed to the loss from the detractors of the team. Bleated salaries were more than most of them could stand and they grew ritzy, oh, so ritzy, even in modern film production it is a case of "hit the ball or get out." They don't stand for disobedience or temperament, even from whites, any
What's Doing
M.G.M. "Trader Horn" ought to be good. A year on location in Africa, another year on expence, it is now about finished. James Davis, the colored daredevil, had a good part, or bit, as did Everett McGarry. The player with King Vidor, *Hallajuah*' director at the megaphone, will start soon. The picture is a tale of the Old South and will be a great Paramount is concluding the Tom Sawyer story with Oscar Smith in a good part.
Tiffany was so well pleased with "The Race," in which Onestey Conley is practically co-starred with Wesley Barry, and Mildred Washington and Harry Levette in good parts, and are talking of making a similar one.
Warner Brothers selected Lawrence Lamar, Martin Turner, Floyd Shackleford, Hayley Turner, Spencer Tracy, and Kevin Known actors, for the German version of their current film, "Sin Flood." The musical Studio interviewed a number of race actors for their forthcoming film entitled, "Mississippi." Among them were the famous pugilist, John Lester Johnson, and the shuffle dancer, "Tijana"

It's Nobody's Business
Early in the morning when the grass is wet with dew, When first my eyes are open, my thoughts drift out
to you,
Then when comes the noonday, and the sun is soaring high,
I am thinking of the June day when we said goodbye.
When the shades of night are falling and the stars
begin to creep,
It seems I hear you calling as I close my eyes to sleep;
The whole day long and long night through I'm
miserable, my dear;
But misery like this is sweet, because I know you care.

Too Much Pampering of White Writers by Negro Leaders
Zora Neal Hurston Raps Harlem's Literati who Praise All Nordic Creations on Negroes.
The program they give you at the Times Square Theatre where "No Rhythm" is on the bill-o'-fare, teaches you things.
Stage Personalities
Among other things, you learn that Madelina Belt, the girl with 'i' winnings smile, who dances like nobody's business, heh! heh! is a Baltimore gal.
And that Johnnie Lee Long, the blackface laugh chaser, was groomer for a dance by his progenitors but not many far.
And that Eddie Rector's secret ambition was to become a firearm before he started burning things up with his feet.
And that Edith Wilson, who can make them weep singing lowdown and elevated blues, would rather play speaking parts.
And that Natalie Hughes is an actress who is as familiar with the civilian musk de mucks as she is with stage folk and takes part in civic affairs.
And that Jarabal, who sings, has appeared in Rome, Paris, Madrid, and Switzerland and - 'i' look at the map of Europe, and you pretty
The Walls Have Ears.
The boys are wondering why the gay young benedict who used to hit the high spots stays home so many evenings and even commits the unpardonable of taking his own wife occasionally. It was this way. Before they were sealed they used to go places and do things together. Martimony became monotonous after a speech he gave and do things alone, or with someone else. She sat at home, or at least he thought she did.
Two months ago he was out with another daddy under questionable circumstances, and those places where he used to go in the old bachelor days.
There were voices in the room next to his, a man named Marmel. The man was his wife.
To have accused her would have called for embarrassing explanations so he kept silent, but he stays home nights, now.
Self appointed leaders of the race and members of Harlem's supposed intelligence are beamed by Miss Zora Neal Hurston, brilliant young writer, for the flood of cheap plays and literature giving false impressions of Negro life that have become the rage in recent years.
Oh, no, they did not write these travesties on truth, says Miss Hurston, who seriously doubts their ability to create such splendid lies, but they place their stamp of approval on all the things that contribute to white authors and playwrights who do, and herein lies their crime.
Whenever a hungry Nordic is suddenly bitten by Negrophobia and sets out to scribble a "true" picture of his darker brother at so much per word, he just takes his brain child to such people as James Weldon Johnson, D. K., E. B. DuBois, Charles S. Johnson and others to give it for their approval, which is generally forthcoming. This gives open sesame to the publishers because if a Negro approves it, it must be good.
Don't Know the Negro
The truth is, contends Miss Hurston the Negro leaders who champion the Negro's cause at so much per champ don't know the Negro themselves. This is why the lavish praise that attended the success of "The Green Pastures," Supposed leaders rushed to print with a waste basket full of adjectives and the author and producers were so flattered that they actually wrote articles on Negro religion. This was because the Harlem literati did not know anything about the religion of the deep South; themselves, since they climbed upon the band wagon and blew their horns.
Wrong Idea of Harlem
Whoever heard, she demands, of a colored person's heaven pictured as that in "Green Passes," where an unseen man walks with a dust brush and mop and cleans off the boss's desk? If there is anything that is not in the Negro's conception of heaven, then he makes man's idea of heaven palmed off to perpetuate the belief that the Negro's status even in eternity will be that of a menial. There is fish kryp in the Negro's heaven, she said. There are golden slippers, long white robes, pearly gates and harms.
**Phoney Works**
As long as the leaders sit sublimely down and applaud the white man's versions of what he would like Negroes to be, this exploitation of Negroes to race must stop publishing these phoney imitations and demand the real thing.

The committee was composed of Rose Norwood, vice-chairman and Miss Bernice Dutreille, secretary.

Examinations for Pupils who Wish to Major in Music. Interest in Organ Music Reviving.
By W. LLEWELLYN WILSON
Entrance examinations for pupils of the secondary schools who wish to major in music are being held by the school board this week. These annual examination are conducted by the director of music of the public schools, John Dennes. These music examinations are a part of the general scheme of music education in the city, and they afford a golden opportunity for pupils of the secondary schools from the ninth grade on to obtain major academic credit toward graduation in the junior and senior high schools. These examinations do much to motivate the proper study of the several branches of music instruction. Opportunity is given, to the candidates for music credit, to study and pursue courses in piano, voice, or any instrument of the symphony orchestra including the drums. Candidates are required to study along with their main subjects, essential to well rounded musicianship.
Any private teacher of music may recommend his or her pupils for music lessons, and may make on the part of the school administration to select or to recommend to pupils any special music lessons. The school will board of examiners simply test or examine the candidates for music credit on the bat; of the musical attainment achieved at the several examinations which are strictly private.
Many of the pupils who have received academic credit for their high school education since graduation from the senior school, made excellent records; in many of the outstanding schools of the country.
Since the establishment of these examinations for students of our group, far too few have availed themselves of the opportunity offered, so the pupils are shown that the pupils are taking up brances other than the piano and voice. This year the 'cello, trumpet, trombone, contrabass and drums are represented. This is indeed encourag-
Among the first to obtain academic music credit were Frances Tarter, Mark Fax, Aladdin Redmond, Ruth White, Annie Brown, Sherman Smith, Helen Holt, and Lucy Mason. There were also students whose were, the pioneers and their subsequent music records have been excellent.
Organ Study Creates Interest
Organ. Study Creates Interest.
Interest in serious organ study is not noticeable among the younger students, more from time to time has developed some high grade organists, and despite the musical depression and slump in the music business professionals, mechanical musical production, good organists are constantly in demand.
Churches in Baltimore are conservative enough to at least keep music as part of their weekly services. Organists are involved in innovations and of radical experiments. Furthering forth of wild doctrines the faithful still enjoy the congregational singing of hymns and choral singing of well selected anthems which some time spiritual organists accompany time spiritual organ accompaniment.

That house is expected to house Lew Leslie, the director, and it is a Shubert House. However, another show is booked for the house on the 22nd.
On the same side of the street, the theatre, an Erlanger house, is being readied for "Brown Buddies" on the rough edges in the hinterland.

Hotshot and Gene wrangled good-naturedly. "Yeah. Wait till he 'tunnel see you in action and he fires you so fast 't mets y' hold swim!" Gene said bitingly.
Hotshot laughed. He enjoyed balling Gene. "Go long, boy." he advised. "Yore moutn't no Bible!"
A man came up and told Gene that he employer wanted to see him. Gene made his friends wait for him, and hastily departed for the barn. In a few minutes he had returned.
"De Kunnel," he announced importantly to Carl, "say dat you and dis yere runt stay in de little cabin up here nigh de big house . . ." he began.
"You callin' me a runt?" Hotshot inquired with apparent idleness. as he picked up an ax and weighed it appraisingly. Gene retreated precipitantly.
"Don't hotshot any attention," Carli called to him. "Tell us what the Colonel said."
Gene returned slowly, apprehensive eyes at Hotshot. The latter looked at him in well feigned surprise, hiding the twinkle in his eyes as he asked, "Did you think I was gonna pop you with this yere ax handle? Why, boy, don't you know I wouldn't do that? No, sir! I wanted to hurt you I'd get me a wagon-tongue, 'cause nothin' else would be big enough to bust yo' hard haid!
"De Kunnel say," continued Gene, "that you all kin eat up in de kitchen, ceppin' yo lunch which you teks to de fie' wif you."
"Hey-hey!" Hotshot cried joyously, dancing a jig. "I ain't heard sich good news since I caught me three hunerd bucks in policy!"

"Looks like we're getting a break," Carl laughed.
"Boy, hush yo' mouff!" Hotshot chortled.

After Gene had taken them to the supply house, where both drew new blue overalls and blue shirts, as well as new shoes, the truck driver showed them the way to the fields.
The cabin which the Colonel had assigned them was only a few hundred yards from what Gene and Hotshot referred to knowingly as the "big house." The other cabins, built of logs, with grass roofs, were relics of the days when the great Barre plantation had swarmed with slaves. It had been the slave section, and now it served as the workers' quarters.
These cabins were scattered out hapharzady through the heavy woods near the big cotton field, and they were all occupied by itinerant cotton pickers who came to harvest the crop. Carl soon learned that it was not work that brought the dark buildings, but that they came to have

a good time as, much as to earn money.
On the way to the fields from the cabins the men passed through a large cleared circle set deep in the woods. In the center a few embers glowed, and a large ring of ashes indicated that a huge fire had blazed there very recently. Two rough plank stones near the fire and the grass around them was worn thin.
"Whuh's dis yere place?" Hotshot asked.
Gene grinned. "If you stay yours, finds out!" he answered significantly. "Dey calls dis e scronchin' groun'!"

"Shut my mouf!" Hotshot ejaculated.
"What's a scronchin' ground?" Carl wanted to know.
Gene and Hotshot cackled boistrously. "Listen at ole Carl putin' on."
Gene chuckled. "Tending like he ain't never heared a' no scronch."
"Really I haven't." Carl protested "Tell me what you birds are laughing about."
"Well, scronchin' is a dance," Gene explained.
"It's like walkin' th' dawg—steppin on th' puppies tall." Hotshot enlightened.
Carl still was puzzled. "That's all Greek to me," he sighed.
"Greek nothin'," he sighed.
"That's everyday American. Scronchin' dance—you know-you gets you a ga: while de oaah is gettin' low wid de blues, and you no' de gal tight, and you don't move vey far."

"You talks," Gene snorted, "but

"Let's get going." Carl interrupted.
"I've got to get wise to this cotton

They Meet the Folks
In the field a group stood around the high-boarded cotton wagon from which a team of horses was being unhitched. The workers laughed and joked with each other with great gusto as they girded on the long sacks in which they would stuff the cotton as they worked down the rows. Carl's eyes drifted out over the snowy field, stretching in long, high-growing rows almost as far as he could see. In this Colonel Barre's cotton" he asked Gene, who stood talking with a young girl. "Tain't nobody else!" the boy replied smartly. In his tone there was a pride which indicated that the field might have belonged to him personally. Carl smiled. Evidently, in answer to a question propounded by his girl friend, Gene explained loudly, and with apparent

"I ain't say that, that." Hotshot s deprelatingly. "I jes say I can pick my fou hunerd, that all."
There was laughter from the crowd at the idea of the little brown man picking four hundred pounds of cotton a day.
"You an' who else?" a large, plump brown woman asked perly.
Hotshot eyed her for an instant, and seeing no man standing near her, grinned engagingly. "Well, sweet stuff," he said. "I reckon you bought he p a po' little run like it." Digging inside the group. The woman put her hands on her hips. "I mought he p you get out my way," she said with a severity that was belled by a smile hovering at the corners of her mouth.
"Sally's tryin' a be hard," one of the men shouted, "but she she' do like her teenency men. Don' let her kid you, Hotshot!"
Again the group roared with laughter, and magically Hotshot had become one of them. In company with the big woman, Carl's little friend went into the fields making big talk, while the other pickers straggled along behind listening appreciatively. Carl gazed a little longingly after him, and wished that he, too, could so easily mix with these simple toilers.
After instructing him regarding the use of the scales, which swung from a tall tripod by the wagon. Gene returned to the big house, leasing in the field, but leaving thirty, the warmth of the seven sunny days grateful. In a few minutes two girls + ith half filled sacs' emerged from the field.
One of them, well built, clear brown, and openly approving of their new weigner, greeted him familiarly. "Hello, Carl." she said. "How you this meanin', honey?"
Carl was a little astonished at the freedom of the unknown girl's address. "Why - why, I'm fine, thank you." he managed.
"How much cotton I got in my sack, Carl?" the other girl, who was shorter and plumper, chimed in. Carl welged the girl's sack and announced, "You've forty pounds, miss." The girl name 'Miss,' the plump girl said regiously. "It's Melissa—Lissy for short—to you."
"Don' pay her no min'," the taller girl bade him. "She ain' nothin' but a flirt, that's all. Now me—" "Elimira! You stop sayin' such about me!" Lissy cried. Carl was weighing Elimira's cotton, and sensing that the two girls were not really serious, he merely smiled and said nothing. Seeing that their efforts to draw him out had failed, the girls went laggingly back to their work, casting glances, which were a mixture of shyness and boldness, back over their shoulders. One after the other the various pickers dragged their sacks up to the scales to be weighed. Carl went about his work quickly and quietly. "p-d feeling inadequate to the sallies with

which his new friends created him, merely smiled and said little. Hshot was fulfilling his prophecy that he will pick much cotton by dragging up two seventy-pound sacks by ten o'clock, and by noon he had fifty pounds more, making a total hundred and ninety pounds. Apparently his cotton picking prowess had caused the large Sally to admire him, for she came in with him each time he weighed, bringing her own filled sack.
"Eny man what c'n pick mo' cotton me is my kind a man!" she told her friends at noon. "Specially a little man"
"An' eny woman what c'n almost keep up wif me is my kind a woman!" Hshot returned gallantly, with a sly wink in Carl's direction. Then he asked Sally, "Say, c'n you cook like you picks cotton."

Carl sat a little off from the others, fully enjoying the rich humor which flowed around him in such plenitude. His quick eyes traveled from figure to figure, admiring the dark robust bodies, which in spite of their ragged clothes, seemed to possess an air of nobility. He greeted him, told himself, was color and life; simple people living close to the soil, with no worries, and few ambitions to make them miserable. Then the thought came to him of his ambitions—of his purpose in life, and he immediately saw 'hee dark peasants in a different light, and felt a little sorry that they would never know the higher, finer things which he had planned, for himself, by their lack of opportunity, must of necessity be narrow.
By now the sun, which had been merely pleasant in the earlier part of the day, burned with an intensity which created shimmering heat waves all over the field. Overhead the sky was a deep blue, with only a few clouds, their whiteness rivalling that of the cotton, to mar its vivid color. From the field came a chase. From the field came a chase. From the field came a chase. Carl listened intently.

Then the whole field took up the chorus:
"Pick de cotton
Pick de boll.

Buy me a jelly-roll . . ."
The fact that the pickers sang, seemingly oblivious of the intense heat, created in Carl a new admiration for them, a new tolerance for what seemed to him to be their lack of ambition. They sang, they worked, they found pleasure in simple things. Could he say as much for his fine friends in far off Chicago?
Carl Writes to Antoinette
That night in the small cabin assigned to him, Carl wrote to Anton Bigal. In his letter he told him of the circumstances which led to his present plight, and he asked, without evasion, if the banker could give him a position when he, Carl, returned to Chicago. When he had finished, he wrote another letter to Autolette. After explaining the events which led to his working on the plantation, he described the plate and its tenants. He told her of his friend, Hotshot, of Colonel Barre.
In conclusion he wrote: "Of course I have been so downcast by the loss of my parents that all else has been driven from my mind. However, I think often of you, and eagerly await the time when we will be together again. As soon as I have earned enough money to buy myself a respectable suit, and a ticket, I'll be on my way to Chicago and you. There is one thing that you need to worry about, and that is that I might fall in love with any of these plans because. We don't seem plain the same language—and anyway, there could never be anyone lovely, as you are. Write me at once and tell me all about yourself, my very dear."
Having written the letters, Carl sealed them in envelopes he had obtained from the supply house, and strolled slowly to the big house where the mail box was. Overhead a yellow moon cast its translucent light over the shadow path he trod, and the heavy fragrance of tuberos and jasmine scented the night with exotic perfume. Soft wind, freedwhet with the strange, compelling odor of the swamp, stirred the foliage with gentle rustlings. It brought to Carl the far away throbbing of a banjo, and the sound of singing voices drifting slowly through the night. . .
His heart* constricted within him as a poignant consciousness of the beauty of the night, inter-mince, with a vague longing he could not express, attuned his mood to the languorous loveliness of the dusk.
He had a feeling that his past life in the Northern city was a listant, unreal experience, and that he was just now beginning to live. He felt the impending sense of something at once beautiful and terrible awaiting him . . .

Fighting would be so fierce that rather than release a domestic creature such as a horse or a cow upon whom they chanced, they would allow their heads to be cut off!
The tiny ant is most like the human in living conditions. Ants have their cities, their various social reasons, their habitats. For this reason the ants' habits have engaged the attention of scientists who are studying them.
Some time ago, the officials of the London Zoo staged an ant battle in their study of ant behavior. The TR: keepers turned a thousand or more loose, permitted them to attack one another, and before the melee was over several hundred had been killed and large numbers badly wounded. Excited spectators viewed the fight.
The most remarkable thing about the whole battle was the way the opposing armies planned their campaigns and conducted their attacks. It was a demonstration that the ant can use his brains in the heat of battle, as well as in the calmer days of peace.
Alit started on a bright Monday morning, when one of the keepers of the zoo placed a little wooden chip over the moat that separated two ant nations—an old one that had

been there for three years, and a new one just arrived. The chip served as a bridge, and for the first time made possible communication between the two colonies.
A member of the old colony became curious. He sneaked across the bridge and penetrated into the new nest. He never came back.
That meant that ants decided. They probably believed that they should protect their nationalists. They did not lose their heads and dash pell-mell across the bridge, only to be swallowed up by a possible ambush. Instead, they chose ten of their best scouts and sent them out to reconnaître. These daring ants crawled across the bridge and into the enemy's territory.
They found nothing. All the new ants were hidden away, awaiting the advance of the enemy. The scouts went back to the generals and reported.
The zoo keepers and scientists watched closely every move. They noted that a council of war followed the report. In a few minutes, there issued from the old nest an imposing array of warriors, marching in ranks as orderly as any crack regiment of infantry. Along the column, the warriors, which threw earthworks in case attacks might come from such quarters. Then the whole band swarmed across the bridge invading the new territory.
A lone sentry was on guard when the hostile band came pouring toward him. Quickly the sentry went below to give the warning, and in a few seconds the soldiers came pouring forth to meet the attack. The carnage that followed was terrific. There was no let up for four days and four nights in quarter was taken. They fought in small groups, biting and tearing. Warriors were dismembered. Quivering bodies lay legged and headless. So hot waged the battle that only a few of the wounded were dragged aside into temporary safety. Then an armistice must have been arranged, but it lasted only a few hours. Evidently the terms were broken, for the battle was resumed, and more wounded lay quivering on floating helplessly in the Water beneath them. With their big muscles the warriors slashed at one another. They tossed the weaker ones into the meat, or failing this, cut off their opponents' limbs and left them helpless.
By Thursday afternoon the invaders from the old colony had been driven back across the bridge with great losses; in fact they had been practically annihilated. Their rout was complete. The victors took some for slaves, after killing all that they desired. The worker ants were called out and cleared the dead from the field, and peace reigned.

Then there will be jumps, kicks, and clappings of the palms of the hands on the feet, legs and calves. This is because they have suddenly come in contact with the advance guard of the enemy's column. "Siafu" is the name that the Swahili tribe has given to the warrior ants, the type of ants that are ready to fight. The time the world is in the zoos of London, New York, Washington, or the plains of Africa. These warrior ants will attack anything alive that they may meet in the course of their advance. They have disproportionately large heads and mandibles and they are bloodthirsty, and while the wound is not poisonous it is none the less dangerous. "Caged birds and animals have been killed." Dr. Dendoveh says they have not resisted in time."
"I remember a case in which they killed, during the night a caged wildcat! I have known them to kill pigs in their sites, by crawling into their brains through the snout. It has happened that babies, who had been left for a short time on the ground by their mothers, have become their victims.
"The little brother of a servant of mine in the Tahira mountains of British East Africa, was killed in this way.
"The rapidity with which Slaft over the body of animate things, whether man or beast, is amazing. Old residents in Zanzibar will remember the sensation that was created when the wife of a foreign

consul walking with her husband on the Muari minoja—the 'fashionable road of African Ceylon, having inadvertently stepped into a procession of warrior ants, was so rapidly infested by the enemy that, wild with pain and disgust, she tore off her clothes and stood naked.
"People are apt to lose their heads
completely under these circumstances, the moral effect being, at least as strong as the physical one.
"A friend of mine, who lived near Lake Victoria, once told me how a guest of his, who was sleeping in the same room, near the window, was attacked by Safu in the middle of the night, and already covered with them when he awoke. He jumped out of bed, tore off his pajamas, and started dancing about, yelling at the insects. But when they arrived running, he instead of standing still, began boxing their ears because they did not do it fast enough, whereupon they, believing that their master had won, mad, ran out of the house again, terrorized, leaving him to shift for himself."
These warrior ants are the most

vicious when it is dry and warm. Then they go out in great columns, searching for water or liquid and care not whether it is blood or other forms. Then, too, it rains hard and their underground dwellings are flooded they will forage for dry places.
"So great is the Siafu's pluck and determination," says his scientist, "that the rear ranks keep moving on, while the head is being destroyed—advancing over the bodies of the slain; and it is not until the ranks of the column are entirely disorganized, that the separate individuals will alter their course."
But even warrior armies, vicious and terrible as they are, have a weakness, "and while they fear not death," as Dr. Coudenhove says, "they have their idiosyncrasies in point or smell, like Henry of Arre, who fainted at sight of a rose.
"One of these aversions is known to all native tribes from the Juba to the Limpopo; -ay cannot stand the smell of a smouldering rag, but it must be the rag of a garment which has long been worn by man. The rags are twisted into a kind of rope, and pieces of it are deposited, with due regard to the prevailing wind, either in such places as the column, on its way to the dwelling place, is likely to pass, or all around the latter. They are then lighted.
"The natives of the Livingstone Range use the bulb of a plant which they call kirago; they chew it, and then spit in front and on the head of the advancing enemy. The remedy is very effective.
"These measures make it possible to avoid being rushed by an army, of Slaiman during the day; but the question assumes a more serious aspect when the fiend, having avoided death during the daytime, inhabits in penetrating into the habitation, or the stables, at night, either by entering through the doors or windows or by burrowning.
"Natives, when their huts have been thus invaded at night, simply bolt, and spend the night: elsewhere. But whites, unless they happen to live in houses having several rooms have, as a rule, nowhere else to go, and have therefore chosen a choice to help to steal invaders fight the invader.
"To get rid of Sifau in a house, whether of mon or brick is a difficult thing. I have emptied a 300 centigrams bottle of sulphuric acid, practically without effect, on the head of an army c. Sifau, which was entering through a hole in the wall. If these vicious arts are the roof of house, there are almost impossible. This is all the more difficult because most of the roofs are thatched.
“remember one time,” the naturalist said, “when this happened to me. I had a cat, with three kittens, living on the roof, to reach which she had to climb a tree and then jump across. She carried her children down when the invaders appeared, one after the other and save them all; but I had to pick out Saitfu afterward from the skins of the lot, including the brave介人.”
“It is perhaps, as all say, the scientist, that these fighters are unable themselves, for if they did, they might organize against animal life, and even against humans, and such a war would be terrible to contemplate and would be exceedingly painful, in many respects more so than the great battles of history.

SMITH HAS SPLIT CONFERENCE SEASON
North Carolina University Plays Both C.I.A.A. and Southern Teams.
VETERANS RETURN
Men who Composed 1929 Aggregation, Back in Togs.
CHARLEZVANT W. ANDERSON
TROLLETTE, N.C.-With a new coach taking over the helm of the Johnson C. Smith University squad for the season, and with the return last year's team, the Golden Bulls are trickling onto the campus with an eye towards the C.I.A.A. championship and the southern championship.
The Bulls began practice Thursday with the "Four Ponies" of the past season's backfield, "Red" Williams, "Buss" Hall, "Beef" Martin and "Dummy" Fowkes in the harness, with the capable Ells, Caesar, Walker, and the other backfielders intact. The ole regional "Ed House and Ed Jones" back and tackle are the line, but with Stanford and Bass and other linemen of last year, it is felt that the shoes of these men will be filled most creditably.
The new Smith mentor, Coach Byarm, began his career as a coach in 1915 at the North Carolina A. and College. He went on to serve as a coach to America in 1919 after service overseas. In 1922 he resumed his former task at A. and T., where he remained until his resignation in 1930 to come to Smith University.
During his period of coaching at the A. and T. College, he produced a C.I.A.A. champion in 1927, and he sent his student to the college. He studied in the schooling schools conducted by Knute Rocke of Notre Dame, Pop Warner of California, Bezidic of Penn State, Dobie of Cornell, and Bob Zupke of Illinois. Coach Beyan believed the team to be equal and surpass that of last season. The Bulls will open up in Durham on September 27 with North Carolina State. The annual home-coming will be held on October 15 with Lincoln University, of Pennsylvania, as the opponent.
The first home game will be with Howard, which was trimmed by the Bulls last year in a 19 to 0 contest. Howard and Howard's nemisms, will be in his position with the Bulls when the whistle blows.

Hampton Prof. Gives Columbia Program
NEW YORK.—(ANP)—The Summer School of Music at New York University was the scene recently of the artistic value of Negro music. A controversy concerning the place of Negro music in American life arose when Mr. Hayes was the only colored member. Mr. Hayes is a professor of piano and theory in the Hampton School of Music, and assists R. Nathaniel Dett, its director. Mr. Hayes defended the place of Negro music and was called upon to furnish information about it as well as give an exposition of his content. To illustrate his point, Mr. Hayes gave a choral and instrumental rehearsal. The event attracted so much attention that other classes abandoned their regular programs and gathered to attend a fine chorus of whites with a trained soloist was placed at his disposal. Mr. Hayes chose chiefly the works of R. Nathaniel Dett, featuring "Don't be Humble, Traveler."
When the refusal closed, the audience chorus an ovation. The affair was declared to have been one of the failures of the Summer School of Music.

HearMeTalkin'toYa By E. W. BAKER
THE football armies of the Southern Conference, the C.I.A.A., and the Interstate High School Conference, the last including eight schools, and other sectional combinations have all answered the call of the coaches' whistles and are now engaged in a campaign for sectional honors. As usual, the squads of many are torn up through loss of men by graduation, some being worthly chore of veteran material and for their successes must depend on recruits unknown the season before.
Aside from struggles within the conferences, several of the schools have intersectional games on the schedule. Add to these the fact that three new coaches make their debuts in the Southern conference, and you have the ingredients of the 1930 campaign, which promises to crown new champions, break old records, and draw larger crowds than ever before in the history of colored athletics.
Tuskegee Institute is seeking to find two line replacements, and Talladega, who had only one defeat last year, with nearly all its oltem troops back, appears best in the team. Ace Abbott and his team will have the material with which they have not found it difficult to fill the gaps.
The Tuskegee coaches who vividly remember the two great marches made last year by Tynes, the 185-pound whirling dervish of the Wilberforce backfield, are preparing a special defense for the plunger this year, when they clash at Soldiers' Field, Chicago.
Football in former years was confined in Southern cities, but the introduction of the Soldiers' Field, Chicago, and into Yankee乡 done much to create an interest among the North and Northeast who have little hope white elevens.

Football in former years was confined almost wholly to the Southern cities, but the introduction of the game last year into Soldiers' Field, Chicago, and into Yankee Stadium, New York, has done much to create an interest among the colored youth in the North and Northeast who have little hope of getting on the big eleven.
The youth who are denied the privilege of participating in the athletic events of the white schools which they attend, are encouraged to see the members of their group engaged in the rugged field as a result they have taken a new interest in the Southern schools. They realize that they may go to one of their own schools and through merit minus discrimination, secure a berth on a college eleven. Besides the new spirit created in the minds of the youth, it has demonstrated to the other group of these sections, that we, too, have an appreciation for the cleaner and higher athletic sports.
Hampton and Lincoln, who will duplicate their innovation of last year, the Yankee Stadium in New York, and Tuskegee and Wilberforce, who clash again at Soldiers' Field in Chicago, are doing great work in selling the Negro college idea in the North.

The A. and T. squad closed the second week of their practice Saturday afternoon with a scrimmage game between the first and second teams which last one hour. Coach Jefferson spent most of the time fronning out the offense which appeared well. DeBerry, Dillard, Browning and Gorelock made a good showing on the first team. Morrow and Conyers are the most promising of the second team backs. DeBerry barked the signals for the first string line-up. On the line of regulars were: Streater and Captain Jewel at ends; Stanback and Manning at tackles; Taylor and Washington at guards; and Robinson at center. The line showed great teamwork in kicking for the first squad, and from his performance, it appears that Coach Jefferson will have little trouble with the kicking department, as it full gives promise of being one of the outstanding plungers of the game this year. Gig. fast and elusive, he found little trouble in piercing the scrub队 and must have a well-defined staff and usable bell carriers are hard to stop.

Two strong for Bluefield, West, Virginia, where they will open the season with the famous Bluefield Institute Big Blue in night game on Saturday in Manhattan for Bluefield on Thursday morning.

Half of Squad at Atlanta School Are New Recruits
By MILTON L. RANDOLPH
ATLANTA—Morris Brown University, the menace of the Southeastern Conference, has rounded out the second week of strenuous practice and scrimmage with a squad—of fifty men, half of them being new recruits, under the supervision of Coach Billy Nicks. The team will be with the Army on Saturday, October 4, at Columbus, Georgia. Brown's array of fast, tricky backs, and the forward wall, such as has been developed, are in the pink of condition, says in the line is discernible to all, in the Wolverine Camp.
Seven men have failed to answer the roll call. They are:
Tiny Smith, 200 pound tackle; Maceo Moody, guard; Greek Robinson, tackle; 'Whaley, tackle; 'Gogles', tackle; 'Gulf War, Tharpe, guard; and Cornell College.
Bill Daughterity, last year's backfield ace, has been shifted to center, and A. Reed, 190 pound all-State guard from Wendell Phillips High School, has been shifted to McLamure on left end again, and Speets Bright is out for right end; the other berths are skeptical.
Joe Lockhard, director of athletics, and Tampa Stephens, associate head coach, are possible to help the Wolverines gallop through the ranks of their opponents.
Coach Nick, the youngest of the Southeastern mentors, is one of the Browns have had, and it is encouraging to note the intense interest with which the boys are following his instructions.
Coach Army, their major opponents will be Alabama State, Edward Waters College, Morehouse College, Clark University, and Tuskegee.

Both Sunday contests were pitchers' duals. Smoky Joe Williams and Bill Holland were the opposing moundsters in the first contest and each allowed six hits. A timely triby of John Henry Lloyd and two singles and a home run by Rev. Cannady accounted for the extra runs that gave the Giants their margin of victory. In the second contest, Britt and Farrell were opposing pitchers. Britt baffled the Giants' heavy hitters, allowing five hits, which were well scattered. Singles by Lloyd and Brown, followed by an error by Stevens and a wild pitch enabled the New York team to tie the score in the eighth. However, Stevens made up his error in the tenth when he got his base on balls, stole second, and came home on Farrell's error for the winning run.

Lions Hampered by Hot Spell from Strenuous Grid Practice.
NEW ROOKIE HOPES
Former High School Stars Displays Great Form.
OXFORD—The hot weather has prevented scrimmages by the Lincoln University gridders in the pre-season training period of two weeks, but Coaches Taylor and Wall have now selected a temporary first eleven to help demonstrate the new line plays. In the backfield of this combination be Baskerville, B Bennett and Bennett, and be Richard Kane and "Kid" Snowden tackles; Oates and Mourning, guards; Bus Bergen and James, at center. A varied program of calisthenics and the techniques of tackling, punting, passing, has been used by Coach Kane and to practice was issued two weeks ago.
Gave Light Workout
A few of the veterans are missing from the line-up, but the Lincoln front is promising. The veterans who participate for service are Sydnor, Troy, Perkins and French, endes; Desverney and James, center, Kane, all-American tackle, Harrison, Gates, Bullock, and the rest of the team. Harmon, Baskerville, Smith, in the backfield. Lewis, Clark, Jackson and Anderson are expected this week. The new students have contributed a large number of games. They are Epps, a giant backfield luminary from Shreveport, La Water, a diminutive and fast quarterback from Asbury Park, N.J., and "Kid" Snowden, who has renounced pugilism for fame. Snowden is strong as a guard.
These three new stars are supplemented by an array of gridman roles, including fighting for berth on the team. The same so far is composed of fifty men.
Coach Is "Optimistic"
Head Coach Taylor, while very optimistic, is acting the part of a diplomat. He is very quiet when it comes to predicting the future of his Lion footballers, although he considers to be under Yost at Michigan will have a bearing on the C.I.A.A. tussle this season.
He is relying on a fast team since most of his heavy guards, including "Big Boy" Veney, have not returned. The backs consist of three "ten secondly tall and fast." The backs ends are exceptionally tall and fast.
The Lincoln Lions will have a practice game on Saturday here when they face a cavalry team from West Point. The first real test of Lincoln comes off on Saturday, October 16. The Lincoln College Eagles will entertain them in a night gonfalon at Durham.
By C. F. RICHARDSON, Jr.
MARSHALL, Texas--Probably at no time in its past history has the team been able to eliminate eleven so remote as it is in the past. Only three letter men answered the initial call of Coach Harvey. These players, who knew the best passing and running skills, the best western conference for the last two seasons; "Rose" Henderson, speedy and elusive half, who to our knowledge was on his tracks by one man and Simpkins, half of promise. Mallard, a hard running back of 15 year, was enough to win a letter is back "Slim" Wilson, Hackett, Murray and Dade were lost by graduation. These players were on the last year; "Ramona" Turner, tackle; "Big Smity" Smith.

Things Gloomy at Union University
BY RICHIE C. KELLEE
RICHMOND, Va.
Discouraging clouds hang like a pal over the Hove Varsity Eleven. A meager group of twenty-five men answered the call of Coach Hucles, Mouday, September 15 while anxious Maroon and Steel fans numbered fourteen men of last year's squadmates. With but three vets to steer the team clear of the "breakers," Coach Hucles, head mentor, of team construction in the sports history of Virginia Union University. Coaches Barkside and Cotton, assisting Hucles, are endeavoring to fling at the Crown Contenders of the CLAA. Captain Williams, playing at right end is the only veteran on the line while the CLAA's team of CLAA fame are the only veteran backfield men to bear the brunt of "Ball Toning."

Strong Line but Weak Backs Cause of Much Concern at Practice
SAULBURY, N.C.—A rigorous preliminary training, with some of the newer recruits calling "Time Out" at the end of the first season, marked the opening of nineteen, ninety-foot squad practice of thirty-five under Coach A. J. Willis on Friday.
A wealth of line material was on hand, but backfield material was not up to expectations. Although only two were lost from the varsity by graduation last year, the gaps, backs and quill. Gill, another, both quill and Gill, a promising sophomore, is being groomed as full-back and is showing up well.
Jones-Thomas Go May Cause Fistic Upset
PHILADELPHIA. — Billy Jones, who is in the market for a crack at the crown worn by Mayer Rose, will attempt to raise his rating when he swaps punches and jabs with Tiger Thomas, rugged Williamsport boxer, at the Delaware arena in Detroit. The two gladiators have met before, but Jones was beaten by Thomas, who was the more experienced of the two at that time, being the winning honors in the light heavyweight division, and Thomas has given promise in the middleweight division. Jones has the most accessible position, with Vale, Okun, of New York, Lou Sozza, the Buffalo boxer, who twice has beaten Rosenbloom, and with George Courtney, the Oklahoma, who gave Jones his hardest caller off, because of injuries to his rivals.

Winerforce Mentor Optimistic in Spite of Recent Accident
WILBERFORCE, Ohio. — The dull thud of the piskan is heard in this grid iron Mecca as the 1930 Wilberforce machine tunes up for one of the plaster schedule logs. There have been but few losses from last year's squad.

annually by them is the clothing of twenty-five needy children at the holiday season. The young stars are selected. The older ones are these. There are a few of their plans for the year which were approved at their first meeting for the year, this week. We remember this group as the one which pulled off the clever anniversary week last spring in honor of their sixteenth birthday.
In my mail this week, comes an announcement of the approaching marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Bowen's daughter, Clara, to George Coates. The prospect of their wedding, the Woodyear, Miss Bowen graduated with the 1930 class of Douglas High School. The wedding is scheduled for the late fall.
Whoever said that 'June was the month of irides will certainly have to go back and consider it more interesting jobs that Cupid could have put over this month, had its setting over at the Madison Avenue Baptist Church, with Dr. Walker in the church, and the charming Audrey Gray of Harraburg. Pa. stole a march on her friends and gave herself over into the tide and keeping of Caesar Voldemort. Miss Gray, you remember, is a pharmacist, having graduated at Kimball University, and the groom graduated from Yale, now living at Columbia. 'The only witnesses to the wedding was Isadore Letcher, of Washington; Miss Dorothy Davis and Charles Dodson; Miss Elizabeth and two intimate friends and relatives, the couple left for Washington, where they spend a day, or two and thence to New York. The couple, both number among their friends a large number of Baltimoreans.
If I'm dreaming, just pinch me. E.t. as sure as sure, everything is over but the shouting, as far as the former Mrs. Catherine N. Lee is the former Mrs. Harold Alexander. A marriage license was issued to that charming lady and Harold Alexander. Did I or did I not make you a grand.promise that the kitty would soon be coaxed from the bag?
The charming Irene Thomas-Jackson, came over from Hamburg; Pa. to visit the family, the A. Jack Whomases, a couple, the J. Jack Whomases, her visit was stricty a family affair, and would not even consider a round of social events, her friends just couldn't a: wouldn't allow her to meet and celebrate her return. So that accounts for the very delightful, very select gathering of intimate friends at Irene Dodson's home, on Tuesday evening to say hello and good-bye to the visitor.
And here's something else that the postman throws in:
Lo Pansy:
We notice that one of the charming Rawlings brothers off-referred to as "Skippy" wooed a certain young miss on Stricker Street. Can you let us in on it?
Sez I ask somebody else, I'm dead, dumb and the man that particular C'erk Street affair.

DEAR PANSY:
There's no "sick animal" as society in the Monumental City, this week. When I told you, in that last letter, that just about everybody had given up, I made a mistake. What I really think is, that almost everybody has completely hibernated. If anyone, is going any place or doing anything, I would no longer see yourself. I "uckered out" trying to see.
However there's a new note in the tendency of clubs. They go literatil. No longer are ladies of lensure content to the club, but few delicous viands and call it an evening. No, m: clear, an hour or two of precious time must yield better returns than that. So they go in for self-improvement. The Mature Ensemble. I was talking to Mrs. Willis Winston, a few days ago, and she gave me an interesting account of the working of that club. She is president, you know, and she gave me in for book reviewing and the study of poetry and music. Their program, while not confined strictly to Negro artworks, through "Secret Sister Mary," by Julia Peterkern, and Bruce Barton's "The Man Nobody Knows" are among the books they have dipped into, going to show that their taste is widely diversified, to the point that there are poems, music and speakers. Good times and good work — a delightful combination. And then the Book-A-Mouth Club and they lined up their program, for the year.
The members were so enthusiastic over the way that they carried out the program. But the team was not planned until November — that they got to work at their opening meeting and planned to should do at event meeting April.
Thirteen must give them luck for that is the number of their book-lovers at present, although it will make a ruling on memberships, because they year so many applications during the year. They are not telling just what number was agreed upon, but what number of an unwieldy number, so you know what that means. They are not publishing their entire program, but that while they are writing to objection to other folks using their idea, vet they think that other clubs ought at least make out their own booklists. They did tell me that the first book titled "The Whiteteaks of Jelma," by Maze Da Le Roche, to be discussed by Martha Evelyn Brown, at the residence of Miles W Conner, host on the evening of October 6. Oh yes, there is to be a social meeting in December, and, for fear the members will be sick, will be a speaker instead, and each member will bring a guest. The speaker's name will be announced later. The club also held an election of the president and Vola Coulbourne will be secretary-treasurer for the year.
The books this year will be
ed by the seven people who did not
have a selection last year and there
will be a division of fic-
tion and non-fiction.
Sounds good, doesn't it, and they say that they live up to the program.
Good news to the social expectancy war along this week, Pansy, when Dr. George Hall, president of the Adelphians, who, as you know, have been responsible for some mighty pleasant evenings in this burg, announced that they have lined up for a movie that can always expect something "radical" from the Adelphians. They do not mind pouring out the "mama" and there are many deserts beyond them among the high spots of the social year.
They held a meeting, they tell me, Tuesday evening and decided Baltimore maids deserve a special affair this fall, and they are lavish plans for — well that would be telling and I had bet it let it be a surprise to you.
We wonder, however, what happens of their club? Don't you think the men here are a little afraid of themselves when it comes to organized efforts. Even the Adelphians let the Washingtonians put it over the rerespect. But what can the poor female species do to sit the men question?
And the Penelope Art Club, through its president, Mrs. Bessie Couway, has announced that their opening dance will take place early in October. It will be given at the New Elks Home.
I suppose that we would not believe that Halloween was still being celebrated if the Asces did not give their annual dance, but rather mum about their plans, but one is sure of good music, a congenial crowd, too-bad decorations and a good long time to dance. I hear that they are bugy making plans for the dance will be given on 24, this year.
The new officers elected since their last dance are Kenneth Brickhouse, prexy; Malcolm Johnson, vice-prexy; Heber Watts, secretary; Julius Scott, assistant secretary; and Jerome Bris-
We are on the subject, the Fontenelle, who, I believe, know the business and pleasure than any other Baltimore-club are going to give two dances in the near future, a pre-Halloween in January and a pre-November. They are to be subscription affairs in order to raise funds for Provident Foundation for the year are their annual visit to the city jail and to Meltvale Industrial Home for Girls where they will present programs and packages of goodies to the inquest.

SMOOTH, LOVELY HANDS BY USE OF LOTIONS
In some future day and perhaps no so far distant, at that, at kitchen sinks and over washtubs we may find called those mechanical figures operated by electric switches whose pictures get in the papers now as fair duplicates of human workers. When that moment comes to pass the kitchen, the housewife is going to agree that she can attend her bridge party without any embarrassment
The varied tasks of washing the infant's clothes frequently and often of washing dishes and doing the other duties that require immersing the hands in hot water are what keep women grooving over the difficulty of sitting in at a bridge game with a snapper. The hands hand, the feet are becoming proficient at keeping the hands out of hot water and refusing to immerse in suds made from strong soap. They are using mild soaps for washing and laundering and they also practice protection with gloves for other forms of work that are apt to make inroads on their nails and
And the hand lotion is becoming more and more common. Not just a once in a while application of lotion, but the use of one after every time the hands are dried is a practice that is growing in popularity. Should be fed their beauty meal frequently during the day with the handy hand lotion bottle kept over the sink, and in the bathroom. Frequent daily hand massaging with olive oil is another excellent treatment. The virtue, is not in the bottle, but in the use of its contents-very often.
Preserve for Early Autumn
Late fruits and vegetables lend themselves to many delicious jams and preserves. Here are two recipes which call for inexpensive vegetables. Incidentally, sugar is also selling at a price about as low as it has in a generation; so you have an unusual opportunity to put up liberal quantities of these preserves at little cost.
Pumpkin Preserves
Remove the rind and seeds from a small pumpkin and cut the flesh in inch cubes. Cook in a small amount of water until tender. Drain and weigh. For each pound of pumpkin allow 1 pound of sugar, "lemon and 2 ounces of ginger root. Since the lemon and soak with the ginger over night in cold water. Next morning cook in same water until the lemon rind is tender. Add the sugar and the pumpkin, and simme. until the pumpkin is transparent. Drain and pack in jars. Cook syrup until it is thick and pour over the fruit in the jars. Seal tightly.
Tomato Preserves
Weigh small, half-ripe tomatoes and allow % pound sugar and 1 lemon to each pound of tomatoes. Slice the lemons thin and cook. Cover until the skin tender. Strain off water as is needed to make % cup liquid to each pound tomatoes. Cook with sugar five minutes. Add
WHEAT FOR HOGS
Wheat used as a substitute for corn in feeding hogs produces meat quite acceptable to meat packers and consumers.
Wheat probably is the best feed possible for quality pork making. In tests in England some years ago in which a comparison was made between wheat, oat kernels, rye, Indian corn, as well as skim milk and other dairy products, it was found that the wheat made formily the best qual-
ture earress.
While experiment station tests in this country have shown that good quality wheat fed with proper supplements is as satisfactory as corn under average farm conditions, it is not be only 80 to 65 per cent as efficient in feeding value. That is, more feed seems to be required under farm conditions to make the same amount of grain. Farmers with excellent pastures may get equal returns from wheat, but farmers with poor pastures wheat neither fatten the pigs quite as fast nor does it produce as large daily gains.
Hogs fattened on wheat normally are hard to carry beyond an inch of depth, but the suits might be with corn belt hogs usually marketed at weights above 225 pounds he considers problematical. The bison have been done heretofore in Canada, where bacon hogs of ideal market weights are 200 to 210 pounds. He also fattened him, firmer fat of greater uniformity, and when fed to growing pigs seems to result in more nearly attaining the idea of a streak of lean and a streak fat.

Many persons think that indible ink stains cannot be removed but most of them can if soaked in strong water and then washed with ammonia.

When drawing threads for drawn work or hemstitching, wet a small brush, rub it across a cake of soap and then over the threads to be drawn. The threads will come out easily and without breaking.

WATCHING THE BIG PARADE By RALPH MATTHEWS
Horoscopes and Elephants
The stock in Zanilmar went up considerably in my estimation this week. No, Zanilmar is not a race horse as you might have supposed, but an animal that might have a striped bobble, a set of well-groomed whiskers and a turban on his head. He struts his stuff at a local movie house via the phone, where he wears a wetsuit. Zanilmar has been plying his trade of showing just what influence the seasons of the year and the positions of the stars had on the dispositions of the world. He der certain "signs" of the Zodiac, and naturally I treated his discourses with silent contempt, dismissing them as so much hapdapde.
Not, mind you, I do not be willing to astrology, whatever it props to be. I feel that we must have something on which to blame our cussness, and Cancer and Capricorn and Leo and Whomever. Some people, I feel sure, could not be as mean and as worthless as they are without some dynamic celestial force driving waterier accomplishments in the lowdown.
February Not So Hot
February, it seemed to me, had a monopoly on the greatest, and we who were unfortunate enough to be born in July started out under a tremendous handcap, attempting to anything were pretty slim, at best. Thanks to Zanmaril, this erroneous impression has been banished from my mind. July has a pretty fair list of celebrities, who, while they might not be as hot as the February lot aren't half bad, and as hard as the optimism at all a new grip on life's hopes and expectations.
Some Great Writers
For instance, July saw the advent of such as Alexander Dumas and George Bernard Shaw, and I, persevered to come a great writer, these could surely serve as bits of inspiration and perhaps instill into me a ray of hope, albeit perhaps, illusive. I have no such ambitions. Long since, I realized the futility of such dreams and am more or less content to merely scribble for newspapers. My great writer calls for thought and meditation. You have to read too much to get other people's thoughts and twist them around in a way that you own the writing for newspapers, on the other hand, is different. You must do your stuff in a hustle and bustle. You have to read more for another. You don't have time to read, to think or meditate. You just write. You have to be original, and original stuff is never as good as another, and stuff that you can improve upon.
In Deference of the Elephant
The career of the late lamented P. T. Barnum, who was also a Julyan, appealed to me more.
A good three-ring circus always had a certain fascination for me; and I am not a fan of it, rather possess than a good well-developed herd of elephants. They are to me the most human of animals, and I am a big believer in the.Darwinists and chimpanzee adherents.
An elephant has that blank expression that you see on the faces of delegates to grand lodge conventions, and goes…about sticking his nose into things just like a lot of elephants that I have met around Baltimore.
Human Traits
An elephant likewise has very large ears, but he lets what he hears, pass through one and out, the other just like college students at a lecture. A lady elephant is also very much afraid of a mouse, but unlike women-folks she seldom leaps upon a chair, but rather walks around it. I take it, is because lady elephants have no pretty lingerie to display, and hence such a demonstration would profit them nothing. An elephant performs all three tricks that a mouse taught him day in and day out, and seems fairly intelligent, but do you ever catch him in the ring after the performance trying to work out some new tricks? You can improve upon the ones he already knows? Have you ever heard of an elephant burning the mid-light oil in an effort to outdistance his peers, or to dispensate to the management and, perhaps, get a raise in salary?
No, you never have. This, too, is
the real problem. The prevalent among
the human family.
Just Like Our Race
Elephants, taken in a collective way, are more like the race to which some of you and I belong than any other. They are not like humans, they are not taken very seriously by those with whom they associate. They are perfectly content to eat a few sneezes peanuts while the other animals grow until they get a good juju. Their greatest resemblance, however, is found in the fact that they can be dogged by one little man without fighting back like the tight knit of a juju exists because elephants won't put their heads together. Always you see them with their trunks wrapped around each other's tails, and following the leader blindly and someone is telling the leader where to go. In a way, it looks like they are sticking together, but they are attached at the wrong ends. They don't deed, elephants are very human, and I'm an enthusiastic lover of humanity, especially when it's humane.
Shepherd's Pie
Grease a baking dish and cover the sides with a thin layer of seasoned mashed potato, cover it slightly thicken the skin. Cover the top with the mashed potato and bake until the pie is hot through and lightly browned on top. A small amount of baking powder or baking soda adds to the lightness of the potato.

A BITTER LESSON
I am old. The snows of sixty winters have left their whiteness in my hair. The warmth of sixty summers has left a fever in my slow flowing blood.
In the years that have passed I have known suffering and sorrow, toil and hardship, but none of these things live in memory of does the oversnadowing knowledge of the sinful sacrifice that inspired me—a sacrifice that the years have stained as my great crime — the crime of my masquerading under the garment of worshipful love. The story of my folly and my sin, I pray, may help some other as blindly foolish and unseeming as I — and so — I tell it here.
My husband died three years after our happy marriage. Our infant son is a year old. He was a bonny boy. Dark curls in soft rugs against the olive velvet of his broad, high forehead. The eyes of his father looked up at me when I held him close to my sorrowing breast.
young Donald as he grew into sturdy young adolescence.
His father had left me well provided for. There was the home, several income-producing pieces of real estate, and a life insurance policy that paid me a monthly stipend of fifty dollars in addition to some money in the bank. Enough, if hard-dressed rightly, to keep me in independent circumstances for life.
I was very happy till Donald was seven—as happy as I could hope to be who had lost the center and light of my life when his father died. Petted and pampered the child. No fault must be found with my "babylon" no punitions must fall upon him. He was too precious.
In vain my mother warned and confided
I had loved my husband passionately. This affection, enhanced and deepened by the natural wealth of mother love, I transferred 'to our son, I literally worshipped our "Dominie Boy," We had named him for his father and always I saw him, in the future, as his father was.
But, I did not reason that, perhaps the factors of training and aint have much to do with the final outcome in any life.
Odget Edgarton, my husband, had often told me of the hardships through which he had won his way to the handsome, upstanding, independent manhood that I so admired and later loved.
He had been a poor farm's son. The statement carried with it its own explanation. The rising iron bed in the early dawn, before the sun itself was up. The cows to be milked. The horses to be fed. wood to be cut and fires made, then to the plow, or the hoe, or the rake. Perhaps to scourse food, coarse clothes — and the finer things of the mind and the spirit throw in that environment and under those handicaps. The sheer defence the mind has that relief from the common sense things of the daily drudgery and routine, in a world of poems and dreams.
While the physical body was being hardened and toughened the mental and spiritual bodies were thriving on the fine food of aspiration and being strengthened and hardened to the fineness of tempered steel.
Sp—Donald Edgerton had come to the heritage of manhood. It was such a heritage of strength and power that his son was born. I felt a swerving pride whenever I looked at

young Donald as he grew into sturdy young adolescence.
His father had left me well provided for. There was the home, several income-producing pieces of real estate, and a life insurance policy that paid me a monthly stipend fifty dollars in addition to some money in the bank. Enough, if handed rightly, to keep me in independent circumstances for life.
I was very happy till Donald was seven—as happy as I could hope to be who had lost the center and light of my life when his father died. I petted and pampered the child. No fault must be found with my "baby." No punishments must lall upon him. He was too precious.
In vain my mother warred and prophesied. In "rain my friends laughed and secretly disliked to have Donnie about their homes. One—kinder than the rest, and I but missed my last enmity by telling me frankly that she didn't like to have me bring Donnie with me when I came to visit her because we was so destructive.
"He tears up ever, 'ing and won't mind you nor anyone else. Emily, she said emphatically, "I like YOU. We all do, and we would love that younger of yours but you have spolied him until he is a regular imp." I never put my foot in Dolly Pearson's house again. I felt that she was unbearable. Oh, if I had only known. Of all those who to smile hypocritically in my face when I went, blithely, with Dome, upon his court, with their teeth the hope I would not come again. Dolly was my one true friend among them. But I didn't know.
When Donnie was seven I began gifts on him. I bought him the most expensive mechanical toys. I paid the highest prices for his clothes. I taught him to consider himself above the ordinary playmates of our decent working class neighbors. I led him to measure and choose his companions, not by their worth a- individuals, but by the clothes they wore, the kind of homes their people lived in. Character meant nothing when I chose my companions. I had as snobbish a son as any one could wish. He boasted to his companions that his suits were made to ord... that they cost as much as the milicairea son who owned the string of department stores

Over 9 Million a Day
in our town. He bragged of the fact that he always nad money in his pockets without working. I would sit by the open window and listen with a complacent smile on my face. I thought it was "cute." honest dealings of the business him. Then—the crush came. By the disthat nano my real estate holdings in hand, I lost all of my income property as one feel—woop. A month later, the bank in which my ready money was deposited on account of frozen assets in the same company. I was left with only the fifty-dollar a month stipend from my husband's insurance, the home, and Don with his expensive tastes.
About this hine Don, being in high school, began going with girls. He was a handsome chap, and when not crossed had a very lovable disposition. The girls liked him. His reputation at always having money drew them to him. The boys, too, who profited by being "in the lunch" when Don's lavish spending proclivities were in evidence, toadled so him. All in all, he was well pleased with himself and I-standing at far off in admiring silliness—thought my boy was leading toward success in What a teacher! would make, come on! I needed to murmur 'tondly to myself when I saw him loitering and laughing in the center of a group of his classmates.
When the teachers complained of his misconduct or of his overbearing ways I always, tound excuses for him, and blamed the teachers or the other boys, always—anyone and everyone but Don.
Several of the wealthiest families in the town bought cars for their youngsters about this time. They used to drive them to school. Don took it into his head that he, too, ought to have a car. As usual, he had his way. I mortgaged the home to give it to him.
Three years later when he was eighteen, about six weeks after his graduation from high school, we lost the home by foreclosure of the mortgage. Now I was stripped down to the fifty dollars a month, and Don wanted to go to college.
Fifty dollars a month? How far would it go with a youth who was accustomed to living or, the basis of a millionaire's income? The next four years was to prove that that diminished income was but one drop in the bucket which I tried to fly by doing in service. The twenty dollars I lost from the millionaire whose children I nursed went after the fifty a month to supply Don's needs.
But all I could do could not appease him. He was forever grumbling, forever dissatisfied. This boy has a that, the other fellow has this. The bunch was going to do this or that or the other. He couldn't afford to come up lacking. He couldn't find a job that he would have. They all required too much time or weren't up to his style. 'r couldn't afford to be known to have to do certain kinds of work. None of the fellows who were anything ever did. So it went on. And I sacrificed everything to try to help him live up to his standards. 'the.sta.cards I had taught him.
He graduated from college. "But, of course, I will have to go through medical school now." He was agent, and was sure that once through college Don would see the need of helping me. He was his father's son. I used to say to myself. He would understand when he was older. But-THIS! There was only one year more of the fifty dollar monthly payments due. Medical school would take four years.
"Don, son," I said—a. I just come to the time of my first refusal of a request of his—"Motler doesn't see how she can send you through medical school. You see I have been working and sacrificing for this day when you would be through college and could help me."
I looked away from the peevish lines I saw gathering around his handsome mouth as I went on. I knew what those lines pressed. Always before, I has been able to erase them by giving the boy what he wanted. This time I knew I could not.
"You see, sonny," I said, as softly as I could and with an apologetic lowering of my head, "will only be able to handle this year and that won't be enough. I this
"Well, where'd all the money and stuff go to that my dad left you, then?" The words and the tone struck me like the lash of a whip. I finched under it.
"Son!' the one word was a cry for mercy and a prayer. But he did not need it and struck—the bolt I had pummed and sacrificed for. Cruelly he lashed me with hl. bitter words.
"If you had had any sense you wouldn't have let 'hose sharks beat you out of all that property. You ought to have known I'd need professional training; what can I do now? TEACHI Who wants to teach? I'm not going to worry with a lot o. half-baked kids." And at last the deepest cut of all-"Well, if you can't take care of me, there are plenty of others who can—and will. And you can blame yourself for it. I've kept decent because of you but I have to live."
He flung himself away without saying any more. But I knew then what the price of my folly and sin must be and I have paid it to the last farthing in the years since then.
Don was killed by his mistress five years after the day he fung away from me in his rage and disappointment. She had come 'home from work and founi him entertaining a young and beautiful girl in the rooms she was paying for and had shot them both. She was two years older than I. I heard that she died in the penitentiary two years ago. I do not know.
But whatever happened to her I feel that my sin is the greater, for I made her crime possible by the foolishness of a sacrifice that should never have been—a sacrifice that even Nature rebelled against. And Love desecrated itself in the doing. The lesson was a bitter one, but I learned it to the last page; and now I pass it on that others may con its teachings and so my experience may save them the bitterness of a suffering that only the grave can hide.

Measure juice and add an equal quantity of sugar. Stir until dissolved. Place in a preserving kettle and boil 5 minutes, counting time when juice begins to boil. Remove at once, pour into sterilized jars or bottles, and seal tightly. Store in a cool place.
Use about 4 tablespoons of this syrup in an ice tea glass with crushed ice and water, for a refreshing beverage.

At the recent meeting of the National Negro Business League, held in 'Detroit, Mich., Dr. Charles A. Lewis of Philadelphia, speaking on behalf of National Negro Health Week, referred to the fact that the Negro world is "Health for All." He said that the late Booker T. Washington had anticipated the needs of his race by giving them three great factors, the first of which was the establishment of the industrial Institute and its many offspring. The second was, the National Negro Business League, which has for its purpose the stimulation of business among Negroes and the starting of new business among us, which is the main reason which the Negro National Health Week was the main issue.
Dr. Lewis was of the opinion that the great educator desired more than all else that his race pay particular attention to. He even event- National Negro Health Week.

The third section provides imprisonment of five years if a person set up or keep a gaming table for the purpose of gambling.
Section 866 sets aside a fine not exceeding $500 or one year in prison if a person permit another to set up a table in a building occupied by him.
"The law here favors the writers and backers in every way," said another officer. "The very Constitution which prohibits search and seizure in private homes permits the policemen from securing sufficient evidence to get a conviction in court."
Police Disagree
As will be noted, there is no law preventing the "numbers" runners from operating on the street while the policemen look on helpless. A lively tilt between two officers about what they could do with a person seen writing on the street is illuminating. As a loss as to the proper complaint, one declared he would charge the person with disobeying the law. The other beaten and strangled it was called to his attention that he would have to furnish overwhelming proof. Disgusted, both concluded they did not know what to do.
Use of Marked Money
While the law provides stiff fines and sentences for using a building in operating a lottery, police said no convictions had ever been gotten in such cases without certain other evidence.
"Iron-clad" evidence means that which has been secured by an officer placing a bet by the use of marked money, and by seizing the duplicate slips. Pliers from "stools" were used in making plays, but, as in a courtroom, they were discouraged. The courts and the office of the district attorney have frowned upon the practice, and as a result, officers must rely upon their own forces to get evidence.
A law modelled after the Narcotic Law has the possessor responsible with the seller was suggested.
"The man who plays 'numbers' should be as guilty as the one who takes a bet," said an officer of the fourth precinct. "If the demand were curbed, then the market would be

Won't Tell of Headquarters
"The existing codes have been in the hands of the courts and the district attorney's office are requesting iron-cold evidence and we must give it to them. A lottery case is a grand jury matter, and we must give it to the courts and the police courts dispose of it without sending it to the grand jury. Inspector B. declined to divulge the vicinity of places now suspected of harboring headquarters for the
Children Play
Police officials are concerned that the game which already has the Washington Negro in its clutches, is spreading among the whites and blacks, and stated they had observed children spending all their lunch money playing the 'numbers" to buy candy with i or two pennies and i or three cents, the remainder of their nickel or dime. Grown-ups have been seen to buy a loaf of bread and shave the pennies to make a bet.
Jews and Italians
The Jew, who has universal repute for his financial shrewdness, first began to be the rivals of the colored moguls in offering dollars for pennies. More recently, Italian paper companies and leather companies has reprinted between the three races as promoters. Eagerness to grab the $10,000 to $25,000 which it is estimated is played every day in heavy colored districts, and has been used in advertising campaigns. Hundreds of cards announcing the benefits and the barred numbers of each house, have been issued to runners, and are distributed to pedestrians and to the agents in a house-to-house canvass. Runners Visit Homes of the People who had been to their homes, but they could not make arrests because of lack of "iron-clad" evidence.
Hit by 725
Several organizations who were hard hit by 725 several weeks ago and had been paying short odds, are now announcing by cards that they are paying the regular 600 to 1 of order, gain new business and hold old.
Won't Pay on 625
A house located near Second and Florida Avenue, which is reputed to have lost $14,000 on 725 began to pay regular Monday. It has been recently paying 300 to 100, 625 is tahoo among the digit twisters how many are it is felt that this house will resort to some trick to refuse paying the number if it appears.
Pays Only 300 to 1
Another back in the vicinity of 17th and U, will doubtless soon be forced to raise the ante. At present, the house is holding out on 300 to on numbers with 0 to those ending in any of the teens, 625 straight and numbers appearing in FRO.
An embryo gang in the neighborhood of 13th and U Streets, which formally was united with Florida Avenue has announced that they will give 600 to 1 odds on everything, and are issuing a card that "Nothing is Barred," "5c Run-Down Allowed," "Overlocks Paddle Dame Day," "Half on Round 7 and Round 8," and T Streets is also now paying 600 to 1 as does one near 14th and T treets. In spite of the drive for new business, in an attempt to keep losses, numbers appearing in the newspapers will bring a 400 to 1 odd.
How Barons Fade
How Each
"Fold up" the house and dis-appearance of the backers are not resort to, ingenuous methods to "dodge the heavy blows."
One mogul summoned officers of a precinct to stop a supposed fight. Patrolmen responded but told that the fight had gone. It was told that the man was a backer who had been hard hit. The appearance of the police around his place enabled him to spread, the cry that he had been raided and the police had taken all his slips. He got away with the ruse.

Spreading Raid News
If the number received is identical with that being played heavily, they reach as many runners as possible and announce the news that they have been raided. As the runners do not get the number until 11 o'clock, they are ignorant about what has gone on behind the mask and has gone that their boss is square. This is too much deception for a white backer around 14th and Streets. When the ball is in the pocket and leaves it so until the storm closes, it is told on U Street that some digits bounced back on another baron, and he called a police officer to stand around the door so that people would think the law was in his place.
Lone Wolf Quit
Not wishing to engage an officer, or face the music, a lone wolf in the neighborhood of 7th and T Streets left when 725 rode, and has not been seen. Big chiefs are not the only ones that have a bag of tricks upon the ambitious investor. A figure that resembles in the least some other just naturally does not count sometimes if a hit is made, according to the rules of course there is nothing left but to try and make another lucky guess.

Aside from this crafty cheating, they have strong arm tactics.

The plank which referred to Negro institutions was as follows:
We are impressed with the marked advance of the colored race in Marysville and has been accomplished in considerable measure by the helpful and sympathetic attitude of Mayor Breening. We commend the "unglock block" and the provision of more adequate school facilities for the colored race in Marysville, the general improvement of school facilities for colored children throughout the Staten Island area.

Many Negroes Lining Up to Cast Democratic Ballots in Pennsylvania.
HARLEM CITED
Turn to Bayard in Delaware
BY HENRY F. ARNOLD
PHILADELPHIA—The movement to divide the vote of the Negro, especially along the Atlantic Seaboard, has reached the rockribbed Republican state o. Pennsylvania. where voters are expected to cast their ballots for John M. Hemphill, the Democratic candidate for governor of this state in the November election.
Primarily behind this movement in Pennsylvania is the effort of Negro leaders to force the state to recognize and cultivate a working relation with the Democrats.
Harlem Cited
They cite the fact that in Harlem and Baltimore, for instance, the Democrats are becoming broader and the Republicans giving more attention to the Negro demands in these two states it is now impossible for the Republicans to begin their campaigns by writing down as sure assets the Negro vote.
An organized movement is on foot to rally the colored voters to election from Hastings to Bayard will be so great that the ones familiar with the political situation in Delaware are already predicting Bayard's election on November 4, next.
The result in New York is especially impressive; it will give the Negro voters two judgements no matter how the election goes. In Baltimore the Democrats are feeling their way and have made some of the Negro leaders judges of election as a start, recognition, and that it is Democratic vote below the Mason and Dixon line.
. In Delaware
Now that the Democrats have nominated Thomas F. Bayard for the United States Senate, he is being formed and those converse with the political situation in Delaware feel that it will be a battle royal. The knowing ones are recalling that he was voted against the Dyn Anti-lynching bill. The colored voters of the state refused to support him and he went down to defeat. Senator Hastings was voted against the Parker when he was importued by his colored constituents to vote against him because of Parker's attitude on the right of colored people to vote in North Carolina, him a candidate for governor of that state.
Hastings was never popular with the colored people for the reason that he was never credited with having done something. In all the years Senator Hastings has been holding office in Delaware, after he came to the state as a Maryland *Denocard*; he being at all friendly with colored people. When he was a judge of the Municipal court he was always ready to give stiff sentences to the colored prisoner who was accused of being a candidate for office he is trying to manifest friendship for the brother.

Mrs. Minnie L. Gaines, wife of Bishop A. L. Gaines, is a rare example these days of a woman who might have made a name for herself in an art dear to her heart, but who chose to lay aside her dreams of fame or success to become the helpmeet of a young minister and climb with him to heights of duty and service both at home and afield.
New people today seeing Mrs. Gaines moving, about in her quiet unassuming way in church circles and in welfare organizations, would think that once she, as a youthful graduate of Clark University, Atlantan, is recommended for entrance to a northern conservatory of music to study the pianoforte.
As a young bride, Mrs. Gaines chung to her dream for a while until the many duties and care of a wife crowded it out and substituted in place of the dreams of four young

Afterwards her husband pastored Emmanuel Church, Portsmouth, Va.; Bethel Church, Trinity and Waters Church, Trinity; and he husband served as presiding elder in the Virginia Conference and in the Baltimore Conference in 1918. He was elected Bishop in May, 1919. He attended the conferences of Chicago, Northwestern North Louisiana, Southwes Louisiana,
The Rev. Mr. Samuel Says Political. Clergymen N o t Worth "Room in Hell."
LIARS IN PULPIT
More in Pulpit than Anywhere Else, He Says.
"Preeachers won't be worth their room in hell, until they stop allowing Negroes and whites to make political dens out of their churches and turning their services into political meetings," declared the Rev. P. P. Samuel pastor of the Mt. Moriah Baptist Church of Philadelphia and who is now touring the country delivering lectures on "Who of Marry, When to Marry, and How Long to Stay Married."
The Philadelphia clergyman had been appointed to deliver the principal speech on the program of the Baptist Ministers' Conference, at the Enon Baptist Church, Monday, after it was determined that the three new nominees for the legislature, Dr James A. White, L. H Davenport, Wood Koger, who were in aear, would not be present because of a political meeting.
Ministers wer further accused of browbeating their congregations into voting for men who made monetary donations to said clergymen.
Llars in the Pulpit
"There are more liars in the pulpit than anywhere else," further stated the fiery gospel wielder. I'm not going to get up here and say that you want to be called upon, but I want to be called upon. And I am not going to say I don't want some money, either, for I do want it. "We ought to stop telling lies. As representatives of God, we should cease to do wrong and do right. But I don't blame God for all of these jacks being in the pulpit. God could make such mistakes as calling them. "You may not like this. It is going to hurt you, but you need it. I'm going to preach an old Baptist sermon, and you old Baptist cries present, though. "When a preacher says it is more blessed to give than to receive, he isn't talking to anybody but you; he is telling himself. If he says he's sanctified, he and you are a fool to believe him.

To those who know her now, Mrs. Gaines is a quiet, purposeful force working toward the betterment of the community in which she has been connected for a number of years. Perhaps the best known is the Woman's Mite Mission Society. The pastor's wife, it was customary to elect her as the president of the church organization. She has also served as the first president of the church organization, but her largest influence has not been exerted as an officer in this and other bodies, but as a non-official member, to give service without personal gain.
The N.A.C.W.
Other organizations with which she is actively identified are the National Association of Colored Women, the state agency for African Americans, Dubois Circle, the Missionary Circle and the Young Women's Christian Association, of which she is vice-president of the board of missionaries. Some years ago when a move was made in this city to disfranchise Negroes, Mrs. Gaines was active in soliciting donations to the missionaries. Celebrate 40th Anniversary This year on June 6, the Bishop and Mrs. Gaines celebrated their fourth anniversary with the daughters. Mrs. Josephine Lansey, Mrs. Florence Gloster, and Miss Jennette Gaines, the youngest daughter, who as a child, earned the name, Mrs. Josephine, which later was shortened to "Sine."
In looking back over the years the fact that she has so ably helped her husband, that he has attained the education has to offer, and that she has successfully raised four daughters, one of whom, Mrs. Cecelia Murray, is now deceased, and also the two children of her deceased. She has also valued sled to cite; and welfare bodies, has more than compensated for the lost dream.

In order that they would know he was honest, however Ridges had to put all the money he had, which was $21, with the $20 that he had in a handkerchief, and the $10 that he had even given to his money Hunt pretended he was putting the money in the handkerchief. He then gave the handkerchief, supposed to contain the $41 to Ridges and left him. On going the handkerchief Ridges found that the handkerchief contained only three sheets of blank paper. Ridges told police of his experience and seven men were arrested on suspicion. Out of this number Ridges identified Hurd.
