J. Ho BO COUNT LOVES MY DAUGHTER, NO T ME-MRS. TERRELL

Mother of D.C. Teacher Tells of Nobleman's Wooing.
HISTORY REPEATS
Mrs. Terrell Herself Refused Baron.
CHICAGO, (ANP)—Mary Church Terrell, widow of the late Judge Robert Terrell and foster-mother of Phyllis Terrell-Goines, talked freely of the reported love affair between her daughter and an Austrian nobleman.
The man, Count Rudolph de Kulpanek Klaundenstein, came to New York as a stowaway on the French liner De Grass after having been refused a passport in Europe. Held at Ellis Island an old office of the atseeing his fancee, Mrs. Golnes, estranged wife of a Freedmen's Hospital interne. The count met Miss Terrell Mrs. Terrell in Paris this summer
with her foster mother, Mrs. Terrell, and although he had enjoyed the reputation among his friends of being "a woman hater," he is said to have capitulated at once before the charms of Miss Terrell and to have become madly infatuated.
Knew Girl He Loved was Colored
While Count Klaudestein is described as "not being a man of means," he is said not to be a fortune-hunter as is the fashion among so many European title-holders. Miss Terrell is reported to have explained her racial identity plainly to the count and to have told him that she was "simply a poor school teacher." But the count, although he springs from an aristocratic Nordic line, would not be deterred.
Her Mother Explains
Miss Phyllis Terrell, in Washington, was incommunicado, when reports sought to interview her. Her mother, Mrs. Mary Church, however, who is in Chicago on business, by an Associated Negro Press reporter, admitted that she knew the count.
"So you want me to give you an interview," Mrs. Terrell said. "I see no reason why I should be interviewed. The count fell in love with my daughter and not me. Or at least if he did he failed to tell me so. I am well-acquainted with the count and sister Stepinane, who is pretty and charming me. He entertained daughter and myself in their beautiful home near Paris' last summer.

IT'S EASY
DIGITS RACKET RUNS WIDE OPEN IN SMOKY CITY
Police Only Spectators in Biggest Gambling Joint. "WOOGY" IS BARON
City Would Elect Numbers Banker Mayor.
PITTSBURGH, Pa.—T he "numbers" racket here is an institution flourishing under the protection of law and doing a volume of business with approximately 300 workers, which surpasses that of many banking institutions.
Wyle Avenue, which has a church standing at one end and the courthouse and the jail at the other, where all the vicissitudes of life may be found, is lined with pickup joints and headquarters.
There is no secrecy about the operation of the game here and the Crystal cigar store at 1407 Wyle, is pointed out as the headquarters of the Wyle big barons. The other big man in the racket is said to be Gus Greenlee, who operates from 1401 Wyle.
Harris and Greenlee
Harris and Greenlee are credited with having introduced the game here five years ago. It has now developed into an institution, and both men have become wealthy through the racket. Each occupies a palatial home on the Frankstown Road, in an exclusive section.
S25,000 Played Daily
As for the amount of business done daily, hangers-on estimate that at least $3,500,000 the average, with larger amounts being played when the suckers get a hunch on a certain number.
Hours totalling fifty or sixty thousand dollars a day are common, it is related. When 805 came out several weeks ago, the banks were reported to have been set back $150,000. Any one on the Avenue tells you a familiar story about Harris having wired $50,000 from Atlantic City to pay hits. It is also told that he flew here in an airplane from the seashore the following day when the hits were heavy again.
Has Police Okey
Like ants darting to and fro, each morning between the hours of 8 and 10, writers and pick-up men line the sidewalks and store fronts. Men and women with pads and pencils take money and give slips, while across the street an officer lazily directs traffic. The writer went into the headquarters at 1401 Wylie. An attendant rushed forward with pad and asked, "Numbers?" When only a cigar was requested, he disgusted pulled one from the box and hastily resumed his figuring. An adding

When to Marion, his wife was shot when he told her to get the number of the robber's car, and he drove home with the dead woman on his side and the baby his lap.

20 CLERKS HIRED BY WOOLWORTH; PICKETING ENDS
(By-Wire to the AFRO-AMERICAN)
CHICAGO, Ill. — W o o l-worth's five- and ten-cent stores hoisted the white flag and surrendered to the solidarity of Negro consumers of the Southside here when it hired twenty colored salesgirls in its new store and promised to place Negro girls in all Southside establishments, Saturday.
Picketing, which had been kept up for four weeks, has been suspended, according to A. C. Macnela of the Chicago Whip.
A Long Fight
The hiring of Negro girls in the Woolworth stores follows a fight started several months ago by the local paper. It has added hundreds of Negroes to payrolls in Southside business places. It is regarded as one of the biggest economic victories ever, citizens who have been conducting the picket on the three stores owned by the company. William J. Rand, district superintendent of the Woolworth stores, announced the change of policy last week. Many of the chain stores accepted the policy when it was announced when the campaign started out under the slogan, "Do not spend your money where you cannot work."

Whites resented a colored college house in the neighborhood. Accused panied the house, and sent the remainder of the night in a downtown hotel. Among the refugees was Milkred Carney, a teacher, studying how others master's degree.
TAKEN AS WHITE BRIDEGROOM FOOLS LAW
PHILADELPHIA.— Maryland laws against the intermarriage of races proved ineffectual in blocking the wedding of Julius Fuentis, 28, and his 15-year-old white bride, according to their story told police here.
Fuentis, who was arrested here in the 1800 block of 122th Street, and the former Miss Frances Hart, both told the police magistrate that they were issued a license at Eklton, Md., and that they were married, despite the fact that the groom is colored.
Neighbors told the AFRO that he is fair enough to pass for white.
Left August 26
For several weeks, according to police, the pair had been living at the 12th Street address, and, noting the constant presence of the white girl and Futunis, they had become suspicious and took them into custody.
The girl is alleged to have left her home in the 1400 block of Diamond Street on August 28. They went to the Maryland town, it was learned, and secured their license to marry, Fuunis evidently being taken for white. Although they were married they were duly married, police held Fuunis for a hearing before the morals court on the grounds that his bride was under age. They declared she was 15. Parents of the girl are said to have refused her admittance back home and she was taken to the house of detention to await the outcome of the hearing.

CARTERSVILLE, Ga. — When half a dozen men went to the jail to lynch John W. Clark, accused of killing Joe B. Jenkins, chief of police here, a deputy unlocked the cell and he was led away while Sheriff Gaddis was not even so much as awakened, it has been learned from authoritative sources. Clark was lynched Tuesday following a postponement of his trial on the appeal of his attorneys through exceptions for a Supreme Court hear-
Unanimous Approval
A. V. Neal, white, County Commissioner of Bartow County, blamed the lynching on the fact that Clark secured lawyers from Atlanta. "I believe I am safe in saying, he is quoted as declaring, "that the action of the men who took the Negro from the jail is not only condoned, but has met with practically unanimous approval."
That officers of the law not only connived at the lynching but actually helped to make it possible is the opinion of Marion Williamson, one of the attorneys retained to defend Clark.
"Clark," he said, "a man of small statue and weak physique, was maliciously and unnecessarily shot when captured. An attempt to lynch him was also made when he was first captured and he was saved only by the prompt intervention of the national guard, which brought him to Atlanta for safe keeping."
It was also ordered that no lawyer be seen him and his own attorney succeeded in seeing him only after an appeal to a Fulton County Superior Court judge.
Date Changed
In order to instrust any attempt to give the man a fair trial, court officials suddenly changed the date of the trial. In an open statement the court refused to allow the Atlanta for safe keeping after granting a stay on a bill of exceptions, the court declaring that he would be held in Cartersville to show the Atlanta attorneys that no ill feeling existed against him there which would prevent him from getting the jury. That very night the men were allowed to walk into the jail, take Clark out and lynch him.

Robinson was taken to Mercy Hospital suffering from a wound of the left arm, which was found not serious. Bill and the "Brown Buddies" company that had played the Nixon last week, closed here on Saturday night, and Bill was leaving the hotel Sunday morning to take a taxi to the Pennsylvania station when he heard the screams of a woman who pointed after a fleeing youth with her purse in his hand. "Bo" dropped his bags and started in pursuit, shouting for the youth to stop and when he was forced to wear gold plated revolver presented him by the New York City police department, and fired into the air.
Officer Fires
Officer Michael Horan, white, who had learned of the purse snatching and was looking for the thief, heard the shots and took up the pursuit. He also shouted and fired his gun into the air, but failed to attract the attention of Robinson who continued to pursue the culprit. Not knowing where the thief Hiren fired at Robinson. Robinson dropped and Horan continued after the purse snatcher who escaped. "Bo" was rushed to Mercy Hospital where he gave his address as 247 W. 49th Street, New York City, and his age as 54.

Dr. Phenix, 66, Headed Institute for Less than a Year
HAMPTON, Va. — Dr. George Perley Phenix, 66, fourth president of Mountain Institute, who served for died suddenly on October 4, while bathing alone at Buckee Oak. His death was due to heart attack. His body was soon recovered and brought to the Mountain Institute. Funeral services were held Wednesday with burial in the institute cemetery beside Major Allen Washington and General Armstrong, Hampton founder.
Dr. Phenix is survived by his widow, Mrs. Maria Stevens Phenix, and one son, George Spencer Phenix, of Brooklyn, N.Y. He succeeded Dr. James Beeg as principal February 18, 1900.
Dr. Phenix went to Buckee Oak beach on Saturday afternoon about 4 o'clock to take a swim, as it was his custom to do it with his wife. He opened the water about 4:30, putting on a bathing suit in the bath house of F. S. Gammack, head of the poultry department at the school, who maintains a cage during the summer at the port.
After he left the shore for the swim nothing more was seen of him until his body was found floating about 1 mile by Lieutenant Pillow, also a resident of the beach at this time. Dr. George K. Vanderille, the coroner of Elizabeth City county, said he was swimming and the additional fact that the body was found floating-indicated that Dr. Phenix did not drown; but must have been overcome suddenly while swimming against the heavy breaks that were running Saturday afternoon.

GARVEY WORKERS CAN'T GET PAY IN JAMAICA
KINGSTON, Jamaica. Finances of the Garvey organization are not on sound footing here and complaints about wages are frequent. The office staff at headquarters consists of fifteen persons, with a total salary of seventy-five dollars a week. Two private secretaries of Garvey receive forty dollars per week, also special conveniences and privileges.
$250 e Week from U.S.
The average support of the headquarters from the American field is $250 per week at the present time. When weekly payday arrives some of the fifty employees receive twenty-five cents, some fifty cents. It must be remembered anyhow, that the secretaries, two in number, receive their certified cheques the day before. The question now then arises: "What has become of the money?" There is not a dime in the bank to the credit of the organization. Instead there is an overdraft. The employee costs a salary. No special business enterprise is being carried on. The organization does not own one square foot of property, even the headquarters does not belong to the people. This statement might create a great amount of consternation, but nevertheless it is true. Mr. Garvey does not pay the officers of the organization. The charge on the American field formulating his past, present, and future salary.
Lady Ravis, Henrietta Venton, the secretary general, is in Washington, D.C., with her bag full of checks, for weekly salary which the bank never had any funds to the organization's credit to cash.
Local Division
The St. Andrew Division which functions at Edelwil Park, is no liability on the headquarters, because it can well take care of itself. The Division stages performances weekly, and that brings in sometimes $600. To be correct her funds are continually drained by the management. (Mareus Garvey constitutes the management). Since the last convention in 1929 the employees have practically starved at headquarters. As soon as an employee's back salary becomes heavy he is driven away; on one occasion there was a fight, and in the skimish the office door was smashed to pieces; every one was surprised to see how Brother Garvey can fight when he does not want to pay.
Many in Arcears
Employees who receive as salary four dollars per week are in arrears of sixty dollars since September, 1929, to the present time.

Escapes J.C. in Cafe and Catholic K.C.
Johns Hopkins University drew the color line here Saturday when the local college officials refused to permit Pastor Quallo, dark-skinned Cuban halfback on the Unsala College football eleven, to don the uniform of his school, but were completely fooled by fair-skinned John Mayberry, who not only piloted his team as quarterback, but furnished many of the thrills of the game by his spectacular playing.
The young Cuban athlete received his first taste of Southern prejudice when he was denied service with his teammates in the dining room of a downtown restaurant shortly after his arrival in the city and was jimmed in a small back room of the kitchen.
He was later segregated and denied permission to remain with his team at the Knights of Columbus Club and was forced to find separate quarters at Smith's Hotel on Druid Hill Avenue.
Fooled Whites
Opposition to young Quallo's playing was started by three young Hopkins student from Mississippi who objected to playing against a Negro, according to reports given to the AAA. While they were apparently satisfied when Quallo, who is of dark complexion, was barred, they were blissfully ignorant of the fact that young Mayberry was a Negro. He is the son

Heads D.C. Presbytery
THE REV. H. B. TAYLOR
The Presbyterian Ministers Association of Washington and Vicinity by unanimously electing to its president the Rev. Dr. H. B. Taylor of the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church, conferred a noteworthy honor upon him.
The elevation of Dr. Taylor came at the close of his third year of service, after a treasurer and is to be regarded as being, of significance because this is the first time that the association has so honored a colored member, notwithstanding the fact that the number of members is more than a hundred years old. The association, being composed of ministers of t. the Presbyterian Churches, popularly called Northern and Southern Churches, by electing to be its president, the only colored member present, gave an additional reason for optimism as to the character of the interacial relations of the future. Dr. Taylor was elected on Monday, October 6, in the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church. He succeeds the president, the Professor of Ecsthetology, and Biblical Archaeology in American University.

Minister Says Eighth Police Precinct Should be Under Colored Officers.
IN COLORED SECTION
Would Give Chance for Promotions; Improve Service.
WASHINGTON.—Pointing out that the eighth precinct is a practically Negro section, the Rev. R. H. Randolph, of the A.M.E. Zion Church, has urged that this district be turned over to a colored staff of officers.
The Eighth Precinct headquarters is located on U Street, near 8th.
Colored Section
This precinct comprises the Northwest section between S Street and Euclid, and North Capital and 18th Streets, as well as the business district centered at 14th and U Streets. The most of this section, according to the Rev. Mr. Randolph, one of the Negro officers are discriminated against in the matter of promotions, he points out, is that they are assigned only to patrol wagon driving and parol duty in Negro sections. None of them are assigned to motorcycle or bicycle. With a compartment officer offered by the police, it would be possible not only to make proper assignments but promotions when they were merited, and thus improve the Negro service in the same manner in which the white service is improved. Have a Negro fitness completely completed by Negro officers. Why not have a police precinct so manned?" he asks.

PORO
It's annoying to powder up for the day and then find that in a few hours the shine is back again. When you use Poro Peroxide Vanishing Cream first you avoid this trouble because this cream gives smoothness to the skin and prepares it so that powder adheres much longer. Also contains pure medicinal hydrogen peroxide — an efficient and absolutely harmless bleaching agent.

SPIRITUALIST IN DETROIT STATES HE'S 2D CHRIST
Protestantism Built on Black Magic and Witchcraft.
HE IS PROPHET
Has 31,000 Followers and 30 Churches.
DETROIT, Mich.—Spiritualism has found a mecca in this manufacturing town, according to Prophet G. W. Hurley, who calls himself the "Second Christ," and has a following of 31,000.
Prophet Hurley in making this revelation, took issue with letters appearing in the forum of the AFRO-AMERICAN signaled that no man ever communed with the spirits of the dead and quoted the scriptures to prove his contention.
Prophet Hurley declares that the Rev. Hawkins did not understand his Bible and drowned the Protestant clergy and religion which he declared is founded on black magic. The prophet also challenges the Rev. Hawkins to meet him anywhere halfway between Detroit and Hartford, Pa. t discusss in open. Protestantism. He will explain that the former is based on witchcraft and black art while Spiritualism is based on the Bible.
Many Believers
Among the great men who believe in communication with the spirits the prophet names Henry Ford, Thomas Edison and the late Conan Doyle. The most striking proof of Spiritualism to be found in the scriptures is found in the story of the crucifixion of Christ when He called upon the spirit of Moses to comfort Him on the cross, he says.
Is Second Christ
Prophet Hurley declares that he is the second Christ and can prove it by the astrological planets under which he was born. He can heal the sick, raise the dead, restore sight to the blind, bring peace to broken homes, pacify enemies and make the deaf hear. Prophet Hurley defies any Protestant minister to match this. He has $11,000 followers and 30 churches and temples. He has given to his association more than $10,000 and since 1923 he has returned to his parishioners: From $2,000 to $25,000 weekly by his children for included expenses. What would become of Protestant ministers if their congregations refused to pay their salaries? he demands.

CHRISTIANIZE BUSINESS, SAYS DR. HUGHES
Church Must Take Stock of Economic Attitudes.
HAS SOCIAL DEBTS
Unemployment a Factor Like Prohibition.
"The Negro will not be seeking and finding superior industrial and social advantages on the one hand and remain loyal to an inferior religious organization on the other. It is impossible to hold the Negro in a dynamic social and economic environment with a religious organization which is static."
This challenging statement was made in the address given Wednesday morning by Dr. W. A. C. Hughes at the fifth conference of city workers of the Bureau of Negro Work of the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension of the Methidist Episcopal Church. The sessions, at which 125 have registered, are being held in the Metropolitan Church, this city. Dr. Hughes is director of the Bureau of Negro Work.
He continued:
"The city church must become dynamic not only in the life of the individual but in the life of society. The church must know the problems of labor. must know the conditions under which home life is being developed, must be concerned with the health of the people. The new service of the church will lead to homes and occupations of the people and will result in community uplift increased spirituality and crowded altars.
The Problem of Unemployment was the topic of an address given Wednesday morning by the Rev. R. M. Riley, special worker for the Board of Home Missions. He brought out that unemployment leads to crime, poverty, ignorance, and often to revolution.
After stressing various phases of Negro unemployment, the speaker declared that the solution lies in the Christianizing of American, business, economics, industry, and education, and the realization that human being is a human being and his personality is sacred—regardless of race or color.
W. L. Hopkins, executive secretary of the Armstrong Association of Philadelphia, a Negro welfare organization, discussed the relation of the church to the problem of unemployment Wednesday morning. He pointed out that unemployment is the concern of the church as is prohibition or any other social question. "Humans are produced by unfavorable conditions of work and life as well as by operation of the element of innate deprivacy. Churches must take the stand that the employer has social duties to discharge to his employees and to the community. "The employer enjoys, along with other elements of the community, favorable circumstances operating at particular times, to permit him to escape, entirely, from bearing his share of unfavorable conditions more about."
Wednesday afternoon was devoted to social welfare discussions. The leaders were Miss Juanita Gorham, director of Sharp Street Community House, Baltimore; Dr. Fred B. Newall, executive secretary of the New York City Society; and Miss Marion Greene, assistant director of the Smith Memorial Playground Association of Philadelphia.
At the opening session Tuesday night, Dr. Channing A. Richardson, superintendent of the department of city work of the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension, was the speaker. A brief address of welcome was given by the Rev. C. Y. Triggs, pastor of Metropolitan Church. Devotions were conducted by the Rev. Pezavia O'Connell, professor in sociology at Morgan College, Baltimore. Dr. Richardson, this year, pointed out rising cost of presence living in comparison with the cost of an earlier generation, when each family produced the most of its food on home farms, and stressed the fact that churches should these changing conditions with an appropriate financial difficulties.
Many Delegates Present
More, than seventy-five out-of-town delegates had arrived for the opening session on Tuesday evening. Among these were outstanding clergymen and social workers, including Dr. Gammon Morris, of Olea; Dr. Abbott of Olea; Dr. D. D. Turpean, of Olea; and Dr. Henie, of Nashville, Tenn. A large number of city ministers had also enrolled at the opening session.
The roster of Tuesday evening speakers also included the Rev. C. Y. Trigg, pastor of the Metropolitan M.E. Church, who welcomed the delegates to the city; Dr. Hughes, director of the conference, introduced Dr. John Conference, and Dr. Pezavac O'Connell, who led the event devotions.
"Present Day Attitudes of the Negro in Religion" is the theme of the conference, which is the fifth held under the auspices of the Bureau of Negro Affairs of the Board of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Many noted speakers will be presented during the three-day Among: those scheduled as Will W. Alexander, of the Sacred and Sacrificial Commission, Rev. Wallace A. Berry, of the American Church Institute for Negroes; Bishop W. M. Clair, Leslie F. Hill; Bishop W. F. McDowell, white; Dr. Ralph Sockman, white; Murphy of the American AMERICAN; Dr. F.

"PRO" FOOTBALL GETS BLACK EYE AT HOWARD U.
Student Council Head Forced to Retract Improper Letter.
PUT ON CARPET
"Ed" Taylor Promises to Return Funds.
WASHINGTON, D. D. — Letters sent out by Edward Taylor, president of the Howard University Student Council, the first week in September, soliciting funds of the alumni in support of a free training table for football players, have been recalled by the writer.
Mr. Taylor addressed the following open letter to the Howard alumni:
AN OPEN LETTER TO THE HOWARD
ALUNNI
I wish to diswish and recall a letter appearing recently over the years that I wrote for the Howard University training table. Since the University rules that there shall not be a free training table, that it will be impossible for the Student Council to establish one.
Any funds for the said purpose will be immediately returned to the senders.
Beat Lincoln
Taylor's first letter, mailed to alumni, began with the words "Beat Lincoln." It urged alumni to send in funds that star football players might get free board and not have to work after school hours.
"We want a winning team," the letter recited.
Called to Carpet
Called to the carpet by Dr. E. P. Dayls, and Professor Coleman
carpet by Dr. E. P. Coleman or Frank K. Peman of the university athletic board, Taylor promised to retract his first letter to the alumni. Instead, officials discovered later that he had issued a second "Beat Lion" letter. Arous-
athletic board, Taylor promised to retract his first letter to the alumni. Instead, officials discovered later that he had issued a second "Great Lifelong" letter. Aroused university officials retaliated; by refusing to permit Taylor to register in college until he had carried out his promise. The above letter was then issued over Taylor's signature.
President Mordecai Johnson abolished the free training table in 1929 and declared that Howard teams would thereafter play on the amateur level, playing the game because they love the sport and not because they get free board.
Dr. Davis Talks
The chalchman of the board of athletic control, Dr. E. P. Davis, states that there will be a rigid adherence to the rules of amateur sports in the matter of subsiding players either by means of monetary consideration or room rent and board. Both students and players are now convinced of that fact and are in accord. In the debate last spring between the Alphi Phi Alpha and Omega Phi Phi on this subject, Omega defending the posi- tion, by the university admin-istration, was accorded the unanimous decision by both the judges and the audience.

Wife, Thought Dead, Revived by Husband to Fight Second Mate's Divorce Action, May Cost Him Small Fortune. "Deceived, Defrauded, Debauched and Seduced," Says Plaintiff.
WASHINGTON, D. C. — Mrs. Maybelle Hovington Owens, 1846 Third Street, n.w., has been, she says, deceived, defrauded, debauched, seduced, humiliated and embarrassed to the extent of $100,000, all by her husband, Franklyn A. Owens, 1724 Second Street, northwest, from whom she demands that amount in a suit filed last week.
he began an ardent courtship, making earnest protestations of his love for her in an endeavor to win her affections.
They were married September 5, 1923, by the Rev. R. W. Brooks. They lived together at the 2, 1929 she alleges, by his cruel and intolerable treatment he forced her to leave his home.

WESLEY FINDS BRITISH
SHUTT UP IN CHURCH
Mrs. Owens asks damages of $50,000 on the count that he "deceived, defrauded, debauched and seduced" her. As a result, she claims, she has been greatly humiliated and embarrassed and has suffered great pain and mental anguish, leaving her health and nervous system permanently undermined. She also claims that she rendered to him her services and companionship without compensation, while she lost the emoluments which would have come to her from her employment as a stenogram. Freedman's Hospital additional $50,000 is asked on account of an alleged assault on October 2, 1929, while she was living with him as his wife.
Was Already Married
The damage suit is based upon Owens's answer to his wife's petition for a limited divorce, which was filed in the District Supreme Court last October. He stated that at the time he went through a marriage ceremony on September 5, 1923, he had a living wife from whom he had not been divorced. He stated that he married Beatrice Hamond in Nortland, Oregon, August 10, 1915. They separated in Los Angeles, Cal., in August, 1918. He and his first wife talked over the question of a divorce and when he left Los Angeles for New York City three years later he was under the impression that she would begin divorce proceedings immediately, he said.
Wife Not Dead
In 1922, friends whom he had known in the West came to New York and told him that Beatrice Hammond Owens had obtained a divorce from him and planned to remarry. He stated. He believed the information to be authentic, he said, and later in 1922 he heard that she had died.
On the night of October 16, 1929, Duncan Allen, of Portland, Oregon, came to his store at 1728 Fourth Street northwest, to attend a funeral animal friends in Portland. Allen had seen his first wife on a concert tour in Los Angeles that summer, he said. The next morning he put in a long distance telephone call for her and she informed him that she had not even instituted divorce proceedings.
Charges Cruelty
The second Mrs. Owen states in the damage that she met Frank in 1923. He represented himself to be a divorced man. From the time of their meeting, she says,

WESLEY FINDS BRITISH SHOUT IN CHURCH
Cries of "Glory to God," "Thank the Lord," and "Amen" are Heard.
WESLEYS ARE SETTLED
Children are in School,
Father at Work:
LONDON, England, — That the colored constituenten is not the only members of the Methodist Church who indulge in religious demonstrations is the declaration of the Rev. Charles H. Wesley, of the A.M.E. Church, who recently visited the London Methodist Church Mission in Kings Hall, London.
According to the Rev. Mr. Wesley, who is on leave of absence from Howard University for study on a scholarship for a year, cries of "Glory to God," "Thank the Lord" and "Amen" arise from Britishers' throats in response to religious emotion, much the same as they do in the colored churches of America.
Nor do the preachers refrain from antics in the pulpits. Mr. Wesley says.
"Now leaning across the pulpit pointing his finger directly at his audience, now upon one side of the audience, now upon the other, lowering, modulating his voice to fit each thought, the minister in delivering his message reminded me of the methods used at home."
And coinciding again with American habits, there were members of the congregation who expressed their concern to the part of the pastor and the expressions of religious fervor by members of the congregation with women in their direction, close to Mrs Wesley. Family Settled The Wesley family is now settled in London, England, where the fathermen of the congregation movement in the British Empire and the children are in school.

How American Whites Carry Prejudice Abroad to France (Paris Bureau of the ARO) PARIS.—The regular columnist of the Paris Midi tells the story of an exhibition of color prejudice that he witnessed recently on a Paris sidewalk. "It is well-known," he says, "the colorized man he has haired, the colored persons, and carry it around with them wherever they go. "A few days ago one of the leading American diplomat was on the streets when one of his compatriots, newly arrived, stopped him. While they were talking a Negro, who knows the diplomat well, and is himself a learned man, passed insulting the diplomat, passed on. "In return, the diplomat lifted his hat. "In return," exclaimed the newly-arrived American, "you lifted your hat to a nigger." "But," replied the diplomat, "that man is not only an able doctor and an artist, but a brilliant writer."
"Precisely, that's why I wasn't going to permit him to be more volle than I am."

WAR ON PRO-PARKER SENATORS IS LAUNCHED IN THREE STATES
NEW YORK. — Political revolt against the Judge John J. Parker of North Carolina as a member of the Democratic formidable dimensions in Ohio.
In that state, on Sunday, October 5, a state-wide conference of twenty-four branches of the National Association Colored People launched a campaign among colored voters and among liberal whites against the candidacy of Senator Rosece C. McCormick. Walter White, acting secretary of the N.A.A.C.P., addressed the meeting, which was held in Columbus, and another of the speakers was C. Dickinson, president of the N.A.A.C.P. Conference of N.A.A.C.P. branches.
The conference called upon Negro ministers, editors, fraternal leaders, heads of women's clubs and presidents. It urged colored voters to put aside party labels, to vote for men and measures and to put the high principle of obtaining and safeguarding African-American Negro party affiliation.
It called also upon white Ohioans, who believe that the Federal Constitution should not be flouted with immunity, to register at the polls in

Sherman's Gutted Courthouse Not Repaired, After Burning Last May.
UPROOT LYNCH TREE
Stump Dug Up; No Trace Now Remains.
SHERMAN, Texas—(ANP) — Under a filmry excuse issued by County Attorney Joe Cox, fourteen alleged white lynchers, escaped the ordeal of going to trial Monday before Judge Charles A. Pippen, Cox alleged he was too busy to Grayson County. The lynchers were able to get a venue change to the Dallas Court, and now seem not to be ready for an official probe of their conduct last May when, to the tune of "Happy Days are Here Again," the thousand lynchers lynched George Hughes. The cases will not be until the November term of court.
Lynch Tree Vanishes
The only act on the part of the City of Sherman, since the lynching of Hughes, to salve the conscience of its citizens, has been to dig up the cottonwood tree, from which burned to hung the next burnt tree, for the lynching. The tree was dug up a few days later, no sign of it remains. Rumor has it that thousands of souvenirs were distributed to the flendish brushes, who roasted a human being on its knees. Gun Remains. The putted court house still stands stark and bare in the center of the square as a silent reminder to the populace that white supremacy is a costly and hilarious thing. The officials are forced to the attention of County in any and every place available.
No Reimbursement
Contrary to belief that something would be done for the Negroes whose property was wantonly destroyed, nothing has been accomplished in this direction. A few meetings were held in which crocodile tears were thrown, and in attempt has been made to return to the blacks any character of compensation, for their forced sacrifice, on the night their Sherman staged its Roman heresy.
Move Business District
Negroes have begun to reconstruct a business district a few blocks from the town center and thriving business. Not a single one of the business men who lost their property in the conflagration, has rebuilt, however, and rumor has it that they have been unable to re-finance the structures, local capital being withheld.
KER SENATORS IS THREE STATES
November their disapproval of Sena-McCullock's vote for John J. Parker.
Guests in Other States
In other states besides Ohio the N.A.A.C. is leading vigorous campaigns against the Senators who voted to confirm Judge Parker, Dr. W. E. B. E. Bols, editor of the Senate, and Judge Wilmington, Del. on Sunday, October 5, urging opposition to Senator Daniel O. Hastings, who not only voted for the Parker confirmation but spoke in its behalf in the Senate.
In Providence, R. L. Robert W. Bagnall, N.A.A.C. director of branches conferred with the officers of the Providence branch at a meeting which voted 10 to 1 to appoint the Senator H. Metcalf.
Capper Endorsed
The record of Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas, who voted to abolish the Parker's nomination to the Supreme Court, and who has been a loyal supporter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, is being endorsed to N.A.A.C. P. Parker's assent, he later sent out from the national office.

A Primer of Negro History is Written for White Folk
Popular Fallacies about Race Relations Exposed by Robert B. Eleazer, white, Educational Director of the Commission on Interracial Co-operation.
(Do you work for or with intelligent white people? If so—cut out this article below, written by a Southern white man in Alabama, Georgia, and permit them to read it.)
Yes, like measles, everybody has to have them, even the best of us. There the analogy ends, however; for most folks get over measles pretty promptly. Nobody wants to go around speckled forever with a million red bumps. And one would think that nobody would want to go through life with his mind bumpy with misinformation and inflamed with bad feeling concerning his fellow men. Yet lots of people do just that.

Walter White Here
CLEVELAND. Ohio—Sunday in Columbus a one day conference of all of the state branches of the University held to offer the faculty for standing firm against Senator McCullough in the November election. Five representatives from each branch of the University had attended the conference at the Long Street Y.M.C.A., at ten o'clock and at three o'clock were present at a mass meeting which was addressed by Walter White, of New City.
Mrs. White Hostess
Saturday was the favored day for entertainment. Mrs. Buzz Fuzz Club at her apartment in 30rd Street. Miss Dorothy Cowdery was the only guest.

No Curse of God
1. For example, a college student gravely informed me the other day that God turned one of Noah's sons black and sentenced his descendants to perpetual servitude. To perpetual servitude, the Bible to prove it. He didn't find it, of course, for the Bible says nothing of the kind. There is no suggestion that God cursed anybody or that anybody was turned black. (Read Genesis 9 and see for yourself.) The scientists tell us that our color variations are due to the influence of climate and crayon. Probably we were all red at first; the name Adam means "red earth," you know. Then those of us who settled in the North faded out, while those farther South grew darker.
All Right in His Place
2. "Oh, yes," someone says, "the Negro is all right in his place." An obvious truth that often hides a fallacy; for generally it means that the man who uses it has already assumed to fix the Negro's place as one of inherent inferiority and servitude. But has one human being the right to fix the Negro's place in the chance to improve his status? Am I God, that I should set limits to the possibilities of any of God's children? Yet that is the philosophy of some today who would keep the Negro ignorant in order to keep the Negro from the philosophy of a past age and of paganism. The highest welfare of all, not the selfish convenience of a few, is the only standard that meets the test of century intelligence and Christianity. Negro Intelligence and Ability 3. "But no genuine Negro ever showed real intelligence or ability?" Do you think not? What about George Carver, the South's foremost African scholar and the founder of the London Royal Society of Arts?
What of Robert R. Moton, head of Tuskegee Institute, a school with 2,000 students and an annual budget of $100,000, did he achieve?
What of Rold D. Hayes, world-famous tenor, who singes perfectly in four languages and has been honored by the crowned heads of Europe? He is the best-selling elf, the lighthouse, who has built up a great school for girls at Daytona, Florida, with a plant worth $500,000?
What about hundreds more w.o. have achieved notably in spite of great handicap? Better imagine how you retail that particular fallacy again.
No Part in History
4. "The Negro has had no worthy
American history," some one
says.
Had you heard that Crispus Attucks, a Negro, was the first martyr of American independence; that Peter Salem, at Negro, was the hero of the Slave Poor, another Negro, distinguished himself in the same battle; that 3,000 American Negroes took part in the Revolution; that Jackson warmly commended the courage of the Negro troops at the Battle of New Orleans and credited one of them with the death of the British commander; that Commendore Negro spies in the Battle of Lake Erie; that Negro soldiers distinguished themselves in the Spanish American War at Guasimas, El Caney and San Juan Hill; that two Negroes were killed in the World War; that four entire Negro regiments were cited for bravery in that war, and that sixty Negro officers received decorations? Look up the record. You'll find it inter-
Intermarriage
5. "But Negroes want to break down the social line between the races." Hold you so, they说 Negroes need to be emphatically frank it emphatically. They say frankly that they prefer the society of their own people Perfectly natural, too. Besides, experience does not matter. Negroes want justice, not social relations. Education, protection, decent living conditions, a chance to develop their best—these are things that white men must grant, if he proposes to be even reasonably fair.
Race Superiority
6. Finally, the most fundamental fallacy of all—the universal "superiority complex." Every racial group has it. Each thinks itself better than the rest and consequently thinks it better if it can Jews thought themselves better than G. T. titles; Greeks felt superior to Romans, and Romans to everybody. We white Americans are just as bad. We think ourselves the pick of the best, and we meanin' Meaning, Chinese and Koreans and East Indians look down on us in turn, as vulgar, excitable, newcomers, superficial thinkers and crass materialists. Nor do Europeans think much better of us, if the truth were told to outgrow that fallacy. Nobody knows which is the superior race—or whether there be one. All we can say, is that we differ in physical characteristics and in degree and kind of development. History shows that the one of age often comes the dominant race of the next, and vice versa.
It behooves us all to be humble; to remember that we are all human beings, owing to each other respect and good will. And the more advantaged any of us happen to be the one in our obligation to serve the others.

Labor Organizer Describes Georgia City of Two Lynchings
THOMASVILLE. Ga. — (GNA)— When entering the city of Thomasville, Ga., one gets the impression that every one lives in splendor and in peace there. For in this town you can see the most beautiful and very colorful flowers of flowers. However, it does not take very long to find out that those living in the beautiful mansions are the ones to go to their summer homes in the summer time, and to Thomasville when it gets cool. A few blocks away from these mansions is the section called "white trash," and then to the section where the Negro workers live. Then you get an entirely different section called "black." Here workers live in horrible looking shacks, their walls pasted up with

Pennsy Republicans Split; Will Support Hemphill for Governor

ASBURY LEADS BOLT AGAINST PINCHOT
Vare-Attterbury Combination Out to Elect Hemphill as Governor of Pennsylvania.
EQUAL RIGHTS CITED
Pinchot Reported as Saying
He Wouldn't Sign.
(Special to the AFRO)
PITTSBURGH, Pa. — What is said to be the biggest bolt of colored leaders that has ever taken place is now being consummated by leading colored Republican leaders throughout the rock-ribbed Republican State of Pennsylvania.
The bolt which is gaining momentarily, is headed by some of the leading citizens of the state, who are openly supporting John M. Hemphill an avowed wet, who is running on a liberal party platform; and who is backed by W. W. Atterbury, president of the Pennsylvania Railroad, and William S. Vare, political boss of Philadelphia.
Refused to Sign Equal Rights Bill
In order to make the bolt effective and drive votes from Pinchot, the colored leaders who have jumped on the Hemphill band wagon are asking two distinct charges against Pinchot.
The one is that Mr. Pinchot, while governor of the state was visited at the state capitol, said that the governor of the state's leaded-colored citizens headed by J. C. Asbury of Philadelphia, who was then a member of the state legislature and asked if he would sign an equal rights bill if the legislature would pass such a Mr. Pinchot is allowed to have flatly refused and is quoted as saying, "my opinion is that the governor never did any good"; and that he wouldn't sign the bill.
Say Pinchot Double-crossed White
Another charge that is made against Mr. Pinchot by the crowd that has joined the liberal party is that Mr. Pinchot, after naming Charles Fred White one of the boxing commissioners of the state, yanked out Mr. White prior to the Dempsey-Tunney fight. Right white soon received a Negro draw, soon thousand dollars as commissioner at the fight.
Beds Fight Pinchot Too
PITTSSBURG. — Speaking before several hundred workers at the Labor Lycee in Chicago, white district organizer of the Communist Party, seceded the Pittsburgh Courier for supporting the candidacy of G. G. Brown, former governor for election.
"When anybody endorses the candidacy of Pinchot, he has openly declared a fight upon the Negro worker," said the former mayor Max Jenkins, white chairman of the campaign committee, ordered a boycott on one of the restaurants in the Negro sector operated by a Jew business, and refused to serve, a colored worker.
On the Communist ticket for Pennsylvania, a Negro is candidate for governor, while both colored men and women are on the municipal ballot.

CRISIS EDITOR
STRIPS QUAKERS
OF 1668 GLAMOUR
DuBois Points Out the Bunk of History in Philadelphia Meeting.
CROWD AWED
Speech Made in Quaker Meeting House. (Special to the AFRO) PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, Crisis editor has earned the red badge for courage.
He spent ago in a Boston address he declared that New England Pilgrims and Puritans originally came from the red light districts of old England. Last Saturday he arose in a conference for teachers of history at Friends Meeting House here (the American stronghold of New England) to declare a durable in history including the belief that Quakers were opposed to slavery.
History Unreliable
Dr. DuBois said that he thought history very unreliable. As an ex-convict, he was involved with the Encyclopedia Britannica.
THE BOSTON EDITOR
Britannica. I agreed. I and the later I sent them my article. Later I came back in proof with several things to be changed among them the capitalization of the word Negro When I refused after receiving
Dr. DuBois several letters from the publishers, my article was left out of the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Bunk about Quakers
"The Quakers," continued Dr. DuBois, "have always been hoiled as the first to fight against slavery in this country in 1668. A number of times I have had people say that to me, 'But this is not true. It took the Quakers more than a century from 1668 to become free of slaves. Then they sold their slaves in the South and got their money back.
"And the reason why the Quakers got rid of their slaves was not so much that they were against slavery but because of fear, these facts can be proven."
The friends were not, as history tells you, from the best stock in England but largely English undesirable. They were average people without any interest in the suppression of slavery.
The conference was held under the auspices of the American Interracial Peace Conference.
Philly Showing Pon
Several hundred teachers from various schools and conferences, Baltimore led in representatives, with W. Douglas Johnson, Dean John Haywood, John W. Johnson, Superintendent Superintendent Gareet Wiklinson, of D.C. presided. Dr. Ambrose Caliver of the U.S. Department of Education, Dr. Thomas I. Brown of Milner College, D.C. Presided. Dr. Thomas I. Brown of Milner College, D.C. Presided. Dr. Thomas I. Brown of Milner College, D.C. Presided. Only two Philly principals were noted in the auditions. From Wilmington came principal George Johnson, and from Atlantic City Prof. Montgomery Gregory. Philly principals talked. Dr. Carter G. Woodson, of D.C., of the History Association, said: "History is propaganda, and Negroes are not very good teachers, and their own teachings, until taught in white schools. They are opposed to such an influence to the fact that they are Negroes."
Intellectual Preludice
"If you teach a Negro that he has a background of ignominious slavery and ignorance bestowed Dr. Woodson, he is able to become bitten and result in fiery complicity. People up North have done too much making up North a saint—a sort of persecuted saint. Why the he is in North it is not so much a case of race prejudice and prejudice. I have never heard a age established at Harvard University, only to be condemn—Dr. C. G. Woodson
P. R. S.
ly to be condemn- Dr. C. G. Woodson
adl have never heard a Negro mentioned at
Chicago University, except to be condem-
nated!"
TeXs Used in South
Dr. Woodson added that a good many teachers in the South are using the University of North Carolina is actually teaching the achievements of the students, and it is clear that it lacked but the sympathetic stroke of pen to present to the Negro the more important civilization, as laborer, warrior, political pawn and philosopher. And all that the pupil and scholars inherent philosophic nature, and like Paul Laurence Dunbar, cultivate forerance.

Pain in Side and Back
"ABOUT a year ago, I was in very bad health," writes Miss Thelma Sorapurn, of 1738 Annette St., New Orleans, La., whose picture is printed above.
"I had very severe headaches and swimming in my head. I was nervous and felt so tired and dull. Just felt like I wanted to sit around and not do anything at all. I had severe pain in my side, and my back hurt.
"My mother gave me Cardui and I quit being nervous, and I quit having the headache. My back and sides got easy, and I felt strong and well. After taking two bottles of Cardui, no one would know I had ever been sick, for I felt like new."
CARDUI
Cardui is a purely vegetable medicine, used by women for more than 50 years. Made by The Chattanooga Medicine Co., Chattanooga, Tennessee, and sold by druggists everywhere. LLC.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER
(1906)
Top many of our pecing themselves for oversight of their own looking forward to whi them.
One of the things mind is the dearth of fit for clerks. A read need of a young one that not only co proficient in typewriting a stenographer. I could be found.
Half the battle is for whatever comes al
Too many of our people apparently are educating themselves for what appears only to be in sight of their own feeble vision and are not looking forward to what the future might bring them. Of the things which brings this to our mind is the death of young women in this city fit for clerks, not for business-organized company that not only could keep books, but was proficient in typewriting to say nothing of being a stenographer. But no such young woman could be a stenographer when won once is prepared for whatever comes along.
Too many of our people apparently are educating themselves for what appears only to be insight of their own febble vision and a looking forward to what the future might bring
One of the things which brings this to our mind is the death of a recently organized company that had need of a young woman to act as clerk, one that not only could keep on working, but would be willing to say nothing of being a stenographer. But no such young woman could be found.

The 35th Plank
But one plank in the entire 1928 national Republican platform concerned the Ngro. This plank read as follows:
"We renew our recommendation that Congress enact at the earliest possible date a Federal anti-lynching law so that the whole influence of the federal government can be wielded to exterminate this hideous crime."
Resolutions urging the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, others depolishing the elements of loyalty to eliminate the colored citizens, condemning peonage and discrimination against the colored race in the classified government service, and criticizing segregation and Jim crow in government departments were thrown out by the Congress, which committed to making a keynote address before the New York State Republican Convention last week, Secretary of State Stimson said:
Resolutions upping the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, other deploring the efforts of the ill-y-white element of the party to eliminate the colored citizen condemning peonage and discriminatory against government service, and criticizing segregation and jim crow in government departments were thrown out by the convention's resolution committee. The New York State Republican Convention last week se-retary of State Simpson said:
Resolutions urging the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, others deploring the efforts of the lily-wild elements of the party to eliminate the colored citizens, condemning peonage in the state, the classified government service, and criticizing segregation and jim crow in government departments were thrown out by the convention's resolution committee.
Making a keynote address before the New York State Republican convention last week, Sec. Rush Limbaugh in St. Louis Simon said:
"During the campaign of 1928 Mr. Hoover made or accepted some thirty-five campaign pledges. They were part of a general embodyed in the state. Thirty-four of them have been already redeemed by legislation or by executive action. That is the best record of effective action in the forty years' observation of politics. It is gradually dawning on Washington that while all manner of other matters concern the states, the Presidency goes through."

Last Monday, September 29, Judge Clausel Pittman, white, of Bartow County Georgia, sued the judge declared that the reign of the mob is the reign of anarchy and will not be tolerated by a free, liberty loving, and law abiding people. He quoted from the Georgia Bill of Rights and laid especial emphasis upon Article 11, which guarantees the benefit of protection, trial by an impartial jury and due process of law.
Two days later a mob of forty-five whites thumbed their noses at Judge Pittman by taking a prisoner, John W. Clark, from the Bartow County jail and hanging him to a telegraph phone. It was their second attempt at lynching in two weeks. The prisoner was attacked by a mob when arrested. It failed when Clark was rushed to Fulton County jail, and succeeded when he brought the prisoner to the jail. It is only that Georgia whites are contemptuous of Judge Pittman that is so important here. It is the fact that in the past forty years Judge Pittman and other Georgia judges have been defied by mobs 457 times and all that the Judge Pittman has done about it is Georgia, which leads the states in lynchings has never gained a mob. Had Judge Pittman seen to it that several of the lynchers were electrocuted, there would be more respect for him and more civilization in the county. Incidently, Judge Pittman is partly responsible for the lynching in that his refusal to grant a appeal to the court to a higher court. The mob's case is interesting, and Judge Pittman's lawyers claimed he would not get a fair trial in Bartow County and therefore should be granted the change of venue. Commissioner Neal, no poor mucker, but an intelligent Georgia leader, made this statement:
Last Monday, September 29, Judge Claudis C. Pittman, white, of Bartow County, Georgia, Superior Court, in a charge delivered to the grand jury declared that the reign of the mob is the reign of anarchy and law abiding people.

Incidently, Judge Pittman is partly responsible for the lynching in that his refusal to grant a change of venue caused counsel for Clark to appeal the case to a higher court. He is interesting, especially since Clark's lawyers claimed he would not get a fair trial in Bartow County and therefore should be granted the change of venue. Commissioner Neal, no poor mucker, but an intelligent Georgia leader, made this statement: "Had it not been for the appearance of the attacker, the actions and their actions in filing a bill of exceptions which caused postponement of the trial, there would have been no lynching." Commissioner Neal and Bartow County were a unit in agreeing that Clark should have a fair and impartial trial, feeling sure that the sentence would have been reduced. However, the action taken by the Atlanta lawsuits causing postponement of the hearing for the case that I believe I am safe in saying the action of the men who took the Negro from the jail is not only condoned, but has met with practically unanimous

Look at this statement and two things become apparent: (1) "a fair and impartial trial" to them means conviction only, and, further, (2) the employment of counsel and their appearance before the court, a fact that is important only to enrage the mob and convince its members that lynch law was the only proper procedure.
Georgia's present situation at the head of the lynchings state ought to cause colored people to be convicted, not only to enrage the mob and convince its members that lynch law was the only proper procedure.
1. Negroes of other states should declare a boycott of Georgia, refuse to buy from its merchants, sell to them, or have any relations with it whatsoever.
2. Georgia Negroes who live in the lynchings should evict every night the prayer of the Southern preacher who had been ordered to get into a jim-crow railroad train; prayed he "Master You, I'm coming home bringing with me two or three of these white brethren." He would not fight or won't fight back, ought to leave. Only twelve of the forty-eight states are lynchy ravaged. Thirty-six others know how to deal with mobs. The last census showed Negroes are leaving Georgia, and the number of year 1000 or that is not fast enough.
Any place as close to hell as is Georgia, ought to be vacated far more rapidly.

Though I am not a spiritualist, I must hold on him that invariably he returned to its worship.

I know, because I married a spiritualist. Though he tried to forsake the cult, it gained such a hold on him that invariably he returned to its presence. I am not sure I will with this devilty.

Although East Tennessee is generally thought of as one of the fairest states for relations, the school board of Knoxville does not hesitate to say that the city could save money in the administration. Knoxville had larger proportioned population.
In comparing the Knoxville, school budgets with those in Chattanooga, Chattanooga, a statement in the Knoxville Journal for September 30th over the signature of Hamilton S. Burnett, the board, contains the following pungent paragraph:
Although East Tennessee is generally thought of as one of the fairest sections of the South in the matter of race relations, the state's history suggests that the city could save money in the administration of its public schools if it had a larger proportion colored population. The Knoxville school budget with the lower school budget of Chattanooga, a statement in the Knoxville Journal for September 30th over the signature of Hamilton S. Burnet, a memoir written by Richard, contains the following pungent paragraph:
"Another difference in the two cities is the ratio of the colored children to the white. This ratio is made more significant through the fact that Chattanooga employs one hundred percent white teachers, contains eighty-six. The salary of colored teachers is considerably lower than the salary of white teachers and this makes an apparent difference in the salary budget in Knoxville."

Mr. Barnett might probably have indicated that in the matter of school buildings and equipment, and in numerous other ways, the Southern community that has a larger Negro population moves in its school budget. Professor Woofthe of the University of North Carolina, in a recently published study, attempts to determine the size of the Southern communities to deal fairly with their Negro children. Knoxville is a city of about one hundred thousand, and a Negro population of about fifteen thousand, that is in no way restricted in the use of the ballot. The city is normally Republican and has two Negro neighborhoods. The city does not prevent the fact that its Negro population is not larger than the tax-payers might save money on the inferior administration of its Negro schools.
Mr. Barnett might probably have indicated that in the matter of school buildings and equipment, and in numerous other ways, the Southern community that has a large Negro population is undergoing a rapid transformation. Professor Woofer of the University of North Carolina, in a recently published study, attempts by spacious argument, to justify this failure of the community to deal fairly with their Negro children. Knoxville is a city of about one hundred thousand people, with a Negro population of about fifteen thousand. The city is divided into two ballots. The city is normally Republican and has two Negro newspapers.
Baltimore County might well deplore the fact that its Negro population is not larger so that the tax-payers might save money on the inferior administration of its Negro schools.

He was a devoted patriot, true leader and statesman. For two weeks the doctors battled him while he was yet in the full vigor of his manhood and engaged in the thick of affairs, both political and professional. He was a politician that he was known in all the British Colonies of West Africa. His had been the moving spirit of the British Empire, and a multinational for the SeKondi of the Legislative Council. The late Hon. Caseley-Hayford was born at Cape-Coast on September 28, 1869 and was the first graduate of the Geo-hapo. He began his education as a pupil of the Wesleyan Boys High School of Cape Coast, and at Fourth Bay Colony, Cape Town, in 1869.
After a gap of a few years he returned home and to teach at the Wesleyan High School. He later resigned and took up the journalistic career of a sub-editor under his uncle, Prince Brew of Wesleyan High School. He was at one time editor of the "Gold-Coast Chronicle" and joint editor with the late Rev. Tines. He was at one time editor of the "Gold-Coast Times". Mr. Caseley-Hayford was enrolled as a law student in the Inner Tempel as well as a student of the University of Chicago to the bar in 1895. He was an author of no mean order and has left us imperishable, monuments of his literary ability in the fields of history, which are, "Ethiopia Unbound", "The Gold-Coast Native Institutions", "United Africa", "The West African Land Question", etc. about
As a member of the Legislative Council he served on such committees as the Water Rate Committee, the Town Planning Committee, the Town Council Committee, the African Officials Salary Scheme Committee 1830, the Railway Mechanics Committee, the Transport Committee. He was also a member of the Achimota Council (Prince of the Ogee patente) years up to his death on the Board of Education. It behoves us therefore to follow the path he pursued by heading the missionaries of the United West Africa, where he said, inter alia: "The future of West Africa demands that the youth of West Africa should be educated in the Western world we are assured. Of mechanical skill there is no dearth. What is wanted is the directing hand which will point to the right goal." C. A. BOLAJ-MACCARTHY, Lincoln University, Pa.

Of course he was a United States citizen to all Africans were cannibals and went about naked and the American missionaries had to go over and civilize them, then the prince would have made, successful address to those scum of white missionary and were about to stew him. When I was a kid going to school, they used to teach me that kind of bunk; showed me pictures of the United States outfit to France by way of England, landing in Liverpool, thence to Southampton by rail. Marching through the city of Southampton to a rest camp, the English outfit stood, so they folded up their clothes from the States, and that was more than the white officers that were commanding the outfit could stand, so they folded up their clothes about six months before and had put uniforms on and trained us to be soldiers and that we had tails long like monkeys, they fellows three white Americans.
It's funny how the truth will hurt. Of course if the princess had cavalcade and went about naked and the American missionaries had to go over and civilize them, then the princess would have successful address to those scums of Herdon, Va. When I was a kid going to school, they used to teach me that kind of natives and natives had caught a fat white missionary and were about to stew him. They should have caught every damned one of them. Even in the last war my outfit went to France by way of England, landing in Liverpool, then going to Southampton to a rest camp, the English lassies made much ado over the black soldiers from the States, and that was more than the soldiers from Southampton to a rest camp, so they told the girls that they had caught us out of the jungles about six months before and that we had trained soldiers and that we had talks long like monkeys, tails down in our pants. Great fellows these white Americans.

This Reader Doubles that Faith Healers are Sent by God, and Have Miraculous Power, Real Healers are, the Physicians.
To the Editor:
Yesterday, while taking a little stroll, I notched a sign in a window that read thus: "A faith healer, a professional, a medical doctor, an incidentally, this sign among other things, is lead in penile lettering and badly margined. This 'healer,' when addressed to this person, says, 'professional' talks, declares, as does all of his lik, by that reading I Corinthians 12.3, one will find divine sanction of the average person, after reading the Biblical chapter described, will be convinced that this person is a faithful healer, a miraculous gift of healing from God. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
Those healers, as well as none, meant nothing more than that certain men were born for the express purpose of aiding humanity in its struggle by healing and doctoring the sick and ill, and that certain men were medical doctors, and a host of other scientific titles earned after years of hard study and not from mean traps.
When Christ informed those who marveled at his miraculous cures that "greater things than the medical profession and not southerners. Some of those who fail under the category of sickness, such as Finney and Howard Kelly. These noble men are fighting courageously against disease and sickness running the risk of impairing their own health.

Police Psychology. Lynching Cures.
POLICE REPORTS are sometimes shallow and sometimes deep. A deep police report, however, comes in the news from Pittsburgh this week.
Bill Robinson, well known theatrical star, saw another Negro man snatch the purse of a white woman, and with instinctive regard for womanhood, gave pursuit. Down the street came a policeman, and, seeing Robinson running after the culprit, shot Robinson in the arm.
In his report the officer declared that he assumed that Robinson would not be running unless he was the man wanted.
It is this kind of police psychology and knowledge of Negro affairs which have sent many an innocent man to his grave. That is why this little story should be the only police captain in the country.
WHETHER OR NOT the commission to study the present lynching wave will be able to formulate a cure for the great American will it fail to fight it difficult to run down some of the causes for this cancerous growth which has broken out with such virulence in this land of the free and home of the brave.
It may go without saying that the commission agency as the Fish committee will suggest to the commission that it should look into the possibility that the increased mob violence may be laid at the door of the Communists. They have been busy in the fight against the equality propaganda, and it would be easy for Russian foes to reason that, as white men and women in the South resent social equality preachment, the Communists have hatreds which exacerbate themselves in more and better lynchings.
Then what about Herbert Hoover as a possible source of some of this renewed activity in 'the South?' Although as chief executive of the nation he looked for, the Eighteenth Amendment, he has been silent on the question of lynching. Add to this his relegation of the Negro from Southern politics to win over the Solid South, and you have a good reason to believe that the South feels that it can go ahead with its lynching program without interference from the White House. The Negro, as such, does not figure much in the thinking of the great engineer in Washington. This is because he has not been trained to think of any underdog. He thinks in terms of the Negro. Hoover is concerned the same thing could happen to the Negro which happened to the American Indian. So the commission might ponder what the white House attitude may have to do with unleashing the lynch mob in the city.
Another factor which must not be overlooked as a stimulating cause is the present business depression. It is a long cry from the people of the country, but it would not be hard to find a direct connection between this lynching wave and the financial crashes and their consequences. You used to struggle against long odds, be better trained to exist under depressed circumstances than the whites of the South. The very prejudice which gave them many advantages, economic and otherwise, has made them more difficult and times. As a consequence, they smart under a condition whereby the Negro group under normal and fair competition could outdistance them, and resort to unfair means of driving them out. This is not the case in any other part of the country as a whole, for the younger generations are coming to see the biological effect of an unequal struggle, and they are coming more and more to demand that they be treated fairly in fair competition with all races.
But it is a factor which the commission might well study in connection with their findings. The factors may be exciting or stimulating causes of the present wave, the deep seated source of lynching must be sought in the more fun damental channels of leadership, the church will be found the church and the present economic system in this country.
Because of their far-flung organizations, the churches are still a vital factor in human affairs. When they reach the brother churches in this country, at the same time deny Negro Christians a place in their scheme of religion, they not only promote the rottenness of hypocrisy but also the general hatred which bursts out in the more barbarous of the group.
The plous pillar of the great white church who bars its chancel to Negro worshippers and the emploi and who helps to run a municipality who jim crows the Negro from tax supported institutions, is doing the same thing in his way as the mobbist in his way of driving him from jobs and lynching him.
Until the commission can go to the seat of the trouble and cut out the festering cancer of racial discrimination in everything, it might as well, as any honest physician would do, say frankly, it has not the courage to fight against it, which will cure the patient for good.
In plainer words, to cure lynching in this country we must take down every jim crow sign, open every industrial and commercial pursuit to all men and women who want to be free and make our churches open temples of God to all races.

In Santa Clara the high school boys have on a sort of khaki-looking suit and cap; and the class is told by the number of stripes on the sleeve, next the old school is known for the terms of five years a Pulman porter has served by his "stripes." One stripe means first year high school, two stripes second year, and so on.

The weather man is sore with the manufacturers of electric fans and for the next few months is going to throw his support to the coal and wood dealers.
You can always tell when winter is on its way, because women start laying aside their furs.
Cold weather speeds up everything. A lot of noses that stood around all summer doing nothing have started to run already.
A lot of red flannels which have been vacationing among the cedar closes are in the open again. Folks who got a lot of practice scratching musquito bites will and it handy when they put on their woolens.
The moths have been playing miniature golf on our summer and have cut themselves a lot of eighteen-hole courses.
The reason there isn't half as much romance in winter as there is in summer is because you can't hear well while you're wearing earrings.
Of course, you can put your arms around a girl more in cold weather, but she doesn't want passion hals as much as she wants comfort.
People don't sit in the parks and spoon these cold nights because there isn't any fun in holding hands when your fingers are frost bitten.
Then there was the fellow who then hears the cries of lime while he was only his sweetie's teeth chattering.
On cold winter nights it's better to have your moonshine on the inside than on the outside.
Evidently the squirrels have not been the only animal in a winter supply this season because there are a lot of nuts still walking around loose.
A lot of people aren't trying to keep the wolf away from the door anymore because she has already in setted down and had whelks.
People are squawking because coal costs too much to ton, but they can always buy it by the bushel.
With so many block heads around the community there is no excuse for wood being as high as it is.
It would do well to the world a lot of good if people would start their fires with some of the "chins off the old blocks" we see hanging around.
The only way some folks can make both ends meet this winter is by burning the candle at both ends.
Of course you don't really have to worry about keeping warm this winter because if you get far enough back in your rent the landlord will make it hot for you.
The world is put together wrong. The rich people who can afford to buy coal in the winter generally don't afford to buy wood. The man can't afford to live either place, but he can't move.
The preamble says that all men are created equal, but the coal dealer never read the Constitution.

WHITE HALF-SAVAGES SLAVES OF BLACK CHIEF FOUND IN AFRICA
William Pickens's story of colored persons with white servants in the South African town of South Africa have discovered white men and women as slaves of a black chief in the Kalahari Desert. As a result, he has ascertained, have been living in bondage for generations, the fact of their captivity and enslavement has reached the ears of civilization.
A terrific storm necessitated a traveler halting at a village in the Kalahari Desert and entertained by a chief who astonished him by summoning to minister to his wants a number of half-blooded, lovable-looking whites of both sexes.
The chief, who happened to have been educated at an English university, had been asked to He, had, be said, insisted them

If the experience of other proofreaders parallels my own they must often wonder, as I do, how it comes to being a proofreader. I am persistently in the writings that come before them, which errors rarely ever occur. On these errors is the use of the pseudo word "alright" for "all right," because its vogue—in writing—beyond my knen, for almost everybody who needs to use the expression "all right." WRITES it in a way that makes it seem as if I have seen the error in print perhaps less than a half dozen times in my life of over three score years. I do not recall once I do I now recall once—in a headline in a Negro weekly newspaper and once on a patent medicine sign. I do not recall ever having seen a rather wide reader of daily papers, but I do not recall ever having seen a rather wide reader of newspaper reading forms our literary habits and sets our style. Yet we imagine that newspaper reading forms our literary habits and uses our style to associate proofreaders used to say that I had certain "peeves." Well, I admit that I have, and "alright" is the most irritating
One might suppose that "alight derived the alight," "already derived the alight," "already," "almost," and a few others whose first syllable is spelled "al" yet proverbially "alight." But in none of these words does the "al" mean "all." "Although" has no semblance to "alight," and a combination is ever needed or means anything. The same is true of the other words. Moreover, no one ever writes "alwrong" for "all wrong," or "the alghigh God," or "the trouble is and so on. So why write "alright"? Only a few days ago I came across referring to two men who had fought each other, said that one was "all in" but the other was "all out." I thought it helping to fix this monstrosity by using it so much, albeit I am using it exemplum horrensum to you understand my mission.

WEEK'S POEM
THREE GATES
If you are tempted to reveal
A tale some ons to you has told
About another, make sure,
Before you speak, three gates
Before you speak, three gates or gold.
Three narrow gates—first, "Is it
true?"
Then, "Is it needful?" In your mind
give the full answer, and the next
is last and narrowest, "Is it kind?"
And to read it carefully, you must
pass through these gways
three, they may tell the tale, nor fear
What the result of speech may be.

1. Is it best for a lady to remove her wraps in a theatre?
2. When an engagement is to be announced at a dinner, should one merely arise and verbally announce it?
3. For what purpose is the frc. coat for men?
ANSWERS
1. She may do so if the hall is warm, but a lady usually prefers to wear a coat. A man, he should arrange the upper part of the wrap over the back of the chair.
2. Sometimes this is done, but a more delicate or ingenuous way is preferable.
3. Rock coat is for middle-aged men who prefer it to a cutaway coat.

The tribe became a derriere tribe and became their property.

His Error
So Thinks Dean Miller, who says that the Question He Been Forced Upon, Unwilling Politicians.
By KELLY MILLER
No one who has been keeping public policy events can fail to tell us that upon unwilling politicians as a dominant issue of the pending campaign. Those who believe in squirming a straight shooting at the Governor Al Smith for insisting the injection of the liquor question in the campaign of 1928, when both parties were trying to hedge and aid the Republican in ridiculing and condemning his dacity are now taking the words of his mouth and writing them to their state platforms. They are trying to make sure the Democratic mantle. But the theft will not succeed.
Democrats Always Opposed "Sumpnary Laws"
State rights and personal liberty are a part of the traditional Democratic creed. Outtery against supremacy laws" regularly recurred in the National Democratic platform until Bryan William Jennings Bryan saved his dying party from "a drunkard's grave."
When the aristocratic regime was overthrown in the South, the "nova homo in civitate" embraced the cause of prohibition as a means of keeping the state under control. The Northern contingent of the Democratic party, representing the city population with a foreign background, has always been is now, and is likely ever to be, wet. They contend that party's strength in the national convention, and will control its platform, policies, and candidates.
Long memory recalls that James Blaise lost the presidency in 1884 because of complete disbelief in describing the Democratic Party as "the Party of Rum, Romanism and Rebellion," not so much because the characterization was regarded as unapt, but inpt. Bishop Cannon, in the tenth contingent of his party because it still remained, in his judgment, the party of Rum and Romanism. Eliminating Romanism, it still remains the Party of Rum. Governor Smith's bold stroke at Houston merely restored the party's insistent mooring.
In every Northern state, the Democratic platform is wet, with the possible exception of Montana, where the Republican is more likely to Walsh prevents. The Republicans in certain states are making the blunder of their career, in trying to rival the Democrats in relative weakness. Let us suppose that the wet Republicans should win in New Jersey and New York and Montana, their populous states would merely antagonize the national policy of the Democrats, Mr. Hoover's administration. They delegate to the next national Republican convention would be discredited. The Republican party will win in Montana, where the Democratic candidate, Senator Capper, of Kansas, has recently declared that the dry Republicans of the West will never allow the wet contingent in the East to muster a candidate. Senator Brookman of Iowa, has gone so far as to suggest a political union between the dry West and South to avoid suggestion in fraught with serious political consequences.
The 1932 Battle Will be Decline.
The battle line will be decided drawn in 1932, and again in 1938. The Democratic party will be wet or dry, the publicists and better register under the Democratic banner, and the Democrats had better follow the fortune of the Grand Old Party. Just as free trade Republicans and pro-immigration Democrats are aligned where the logic of their position places them. If prohibition ever becomes effectively enforced as an accepted and obeyed part of the Constitution, the Republican administration. On the other hand, if the Eighteenth Amendment is ever repealed the repeal will take place under Democratic sponsorship. If the decisive battle line is drawn the sharper the better. The time for pacts and compromise has passed. The nation must determine whether it wants to be wet or dry, as once before it had toadworms wanted to be a free slave nation.

MP S. BECTON TO SUE HUSBAND FOR SLANDER
Spiritualist Denies that She is Bigamist as Hubby Claimed.
Excuse Discovered in Aubury Park.
(BY WILLIAM TO THE AFRO-AMERICAN)
NEW YORK—A new flare up in the domestic relations of Oliver G Wilson Becton, famous evangelist, and his spiritualist wife, the Rev Josephine Becton, developed this week when she announced that she was preparing to bring her husband before the bar of justice on a slander charge.
This charge, she declares, will be based on statements made by the

The Rev Mr. Beeton der charges the evangelist, "Ma" Beeton has sought the abode of Mr. Belford, whom she declares lives now in Abbury Park. He will testify and prove, she says, that they were legalized in the 1920s, one year and four months before her marriage to the Rev. Mr. Beeton. Not only this, she declares, but Buffalo also exhibited a marriage license to wed him. The Rev.Mrs. Beeton

Couple Pout
For several years prior to the complete foundering of the marital ship of the Bectons', they had been putting admissions from both mates reveal.
Some time after their marriage, they pouted and separated, but afterwards made up and lived together until his recent series of meetings in New York.
They went to live in a luxurious house in New York, his cup of joy again was overwhelming until the horry headed monster, of jealousy and the nagging glooms drove him to seek peace in solitude, he declared.
Several weeks ago when questioned as to ugly rumors suggested by Mrs Becton that he cared more for the male companions of his gospel team than he did for the companionship of his wife, he stoutly refuted such allegations, declaring that "no man loves a woman better than the jealousy of his wife which made him get rid of female assistants and employ males instead.
Although the evangelist declared that he would never institute divorce action, he stated he would not hinder his wife from getting one. Mrs. Becton, who is a spiritualist pastor, left her husband eight months ago to start her present church in York, through which the spiritualist directed by Mrs. Becton came from the Devil. Mrs. Becton retorted recently that when she first started her church he approved her religion and often attended her services.

Alleged Slayer Finds Tombs Prison Cold
NEW YORK. — A local attorney is defending a man who is accused of holding a child held for first-degree murder. He has pleaded not guilty. The lawyer received a letter from him recently in which he said he was not guilty. I don't think I can stand this place in the winter because it is awfully cold in here now. I hope you will have me here. I hope the real winter gets here."
The attorney said:
"I am quite sure that no miracles are being performed on earth today. If I could promise this defendant to get him out before the winter, especially when he is charged with first-degree murder, would he performancing this. This is when real faith engendered through a lack of education and understanding."
NO MOB, POLICE SLEW PRISONER IN GA. JAIL
NO MOB, POLICE SLEW PRISONER IN GA. JAIL
MACON, Ga.—Following revelations which indicate that the officer intrusted with the safekeeping of George Grant, arrested in connection with the killing of a deputy sheriff, killed him and not a mob as first alleged, an investigation has been ordered by Governor Hardman, it was learned this week.
Sheric Poppell, in charge of the prisoner after he had been arrested by guardsmen, at first told authorities that while guards under Col. W. R. Neal were defending the prisoner, a mob disregarded his appeal and went in and shot Grant in his cell.
Denying this, Col. Neal is reported as saying there was no mob at the jail at the time the prisoner was killed. He had been placed in the hands of the sheriff, he declared, and the person or persons who killed him were the fall him only through the sheriff's house. He had a guard placed at the lall gird gate.
When confronted with the statement of Col. Neal, Sheriff Poppell denied that there was a guard at the gate but admitted that anyone could have gotten into the jail after Grant said, "I don't know who killed him," he is quoted as saying, "and I don't give a d—n."

NO PASSING FOR WHITE AMONG ABYSSINIANS
Descendents of Sheba, Solomon, Sure they are Colored.
Coronation to be Gorgeous Spectacle.
(Pars Bureau of the AFRO)
PARIS.—According to a report from Berlin the Emperor Tafari has bought the Imperial State Coach of the ex-Kaiser. The coach, in all its old time splendor, re-decorated with the Imperial Abyssinian coat-of-arms rolled through the streets of Berlin on its way to far-off Africa, where it will be used to convey the black emperor to his coronation.
In London also a fashionable Sackville Street tailor is making thirteen bushies to tailor out of as many lion manes. These bushes are to be worn by the Abyssinian princes who will take part in the ceremony.
The bushies will be made according to designs drawn by the emperor's own hand. They will have long plumes and into them will be woven the Abyssinian coat-of-arms, representing the Lion of Judah and the Christian Bible. The lions were shot by Tafari himself.
World's Oldest Nation
The coronation promises to revive some of the splendors of Ethiopia, the oldest nation in the world. When Tafari's ancestors had been on the throne for more than two thousand of England and those of every European ruler, past and present, were cave men and cannibals. Later Europe became the hunting-ground for slaves by Egyptians and Ethiopians, and was thus awakened out of her savagery.
Whites Claim Relationship to Blacks It is not too much to say that Abyssinia is the hope of the black race, despite the fact that since the crushing defeat of the Halians by the British, people are busy claiming ancestry with them, who have black skins and woolly hair.
Abvssinians Think Colored
The important thing is the attitude of the Abyssinians themselves, who emphatically do not think themselves a white people. Throughout Africa there is a general distrust of the white man, and to call a self-respecting African a white man would be like calling a white Southerner a Negro. Pretty much the same holds true of the East Indian and the Indian in his native land a white man and he would be highly insulted. It is not what a few hirling scientists and others say, but what these people think about themselves that counts. The fact is that distrust of the white race is universal throughout the darker world—a distrust that has been sown by the rough, more brutal members of that race who the pioneers of the colonies and who are themselves unprejudiced, and are willing to make friends, are beginning to feel the effects.
Distrust in Sudan
A white American told this writer that he visited the interior of the Sudan recently, and noted the great distrust of white people there. This man, who was of the more civilized sort, said that his friends took care to explain that he was not an Englishman but that did not prevent his being shot at, whereupon he left the Sudan as quickly as a Negro does a Southern town when a pack of lynchers are at his helm, civilized, is kind to strangers, regardless of color, but its rulers have demonstrated that they know how to protect themselves from invaders.
Abyssinian Students Sent Abroad
Under Menelik, and especially under its present enlightened ruler, Ethiopia is again arising to a place in the sun. In all the countries of Europe are to be found young Abyssinians, who absorb the best that civilization has to offer. Towards this progress the coming coronation will no doubt contribute much. Some sixty nations will be represented. The United States will send Gen. Harris. France's Maréchal de Dreyer; England will send the Duke of Gloucester, and so on.

Whites Respect Fighters, Mary Ovington Tells West Virginians
Sincere Whites Who Wish to Co-operate with Negroes Often Handicapped by the Latter's Suspicion.
CHARLESTON, W. Va.—Reviewing the history of the development of the N.A.A.C. P. and her own work among Negroes, Mary White Ovington, one of the founders of that organization, told a capacity audience at Simpson Chapel M.E. Church here that "white people respect Negroes who stand up for their rights."
The meeting, which had been deferred several days to await Miss Ovington's return from abroad, was one of the most stirring held for some time. W. P. W. Childof, of the M.E. Church, who was attending the West Virginia Conference, in session at the time.

Referring to her own work among Negroes, she declared that she discovered while yet a young woman that so long as the Negro was down and out no one took notice of her, did not but one woman began to rise above the surface, opposition to his progress arose. "With the founding of Tuskegee by Booker T. Washington, many people of the North thought they saw the solution of the problem, but they were mistaken."
Pointing to the work of the N.A.A.C. P., Miss Ovington declared interest whites in the question of citizenship rights and lynching in which the organization was interested, that now the best element of whites in both the South and North has been aroused and conditions are

TREENTON, N. J. — Delegates representing 52,000 Negro voters, marshalled under the banner of the Independent Political Organization met here last week and endorsed Alexander Simpson, white, for the U.S. Senate and nominated Dr. J. Leroy Baxter for Congress.
Sponsors Movement
The movement to repudiate the Republican party was sponsored by Helen and endorsed and supported. The meeting was held at the Elks Home. Dr. Clement T. Branch, addressing the meeting, declared that while he had always been a Republican, he was tired of their treatment of Negro voters in Camden County.
"Hundreds of telegrams from Negro citizens of Camden County and Senator Baird not to vote for the confirmation of Justice Parker were ignored and left unanswered by Baird.
"When a delegation of colored voters went to Washington and made a similar plea to the Senator, they were curtly told by him that he would vote for Parker's confirmation as a moderator's Presiding Officer's policies.
"Senator Baird takes too much for granted in thinking that every colored man is a Republican and will always vote Republican regardless of how he is treated. Let us show him that this time he is mistaken."
**Police Brutality**
Dr. Brunch told newspapermen that the blackjacking and mistreatment of three colored residents of New York were authorities and that nothing was done about alleged "blackjacking" on the part of police until a white man was beaten.
J. Leroy Baxter, former Republican Assemblyman of Essex County, declared that the unanimous vote to endorse Simpson "is like a record of New Jersey Negroes by leaders of the Republican party."

Your skin troubles will respond quickly to this combination treatment,used according to directions,because the "special" soap thoroughly cleanses the pores and the ointment heals irritated tissues.
More than that, this treatment—mildly astringent and bleaching—refines the skin's texture and lightens the complexion—makes it clearer and fairer in tone.
The man or woman whose skin is soft, smooth and clear-toned is always popular - for there is no appeal so powerful as complexion beauty. Black and White Ointment and Skin Soap is the one sure way to a beautiful skin

Referring to her own work among Negroes, she declared that she discovered while yet a young woman that so long as the Negro was down and out no one took notice of anything that she saw rise above the surface, opposition to his progress arose. "With the founding of Tuskegee by Booker T. Washington, many people of the North thought they saw the solution of the problem, but they were mistaken."
Pointing to the work of the N.C. B. Mise Clylonton declared that while at first it was difficult to interest whites in the question of citizenship rights and lynching in which the organization was interested that now the best element of white people in the South and North has been aroused and conditions are growing better.

VETERAN CRITIC OR STAGE SUCCUMBS
Sylvester Russell Victim of Heart Trouble in Chicago
CHICAGO. — The journalistic and theatrical world mourned the passing of one of the most colorful figures of both professions in the death of Sylvester Russell, old-time critic and actor, who died at the house of a friend last week.
The body of the deceased veteran was removed to the county morgue, but through the influence of friends was taken to the funeral home of W. T. Russell, a fund was raised for his burial.
Mr. Russell was born in East Orange, N.J., and started on his career as a valet for the wealthy Colby boys, serving them at Brown University.
For a number of years he was one of the tenor singers with Al Field's famous minstrel "Forty Blacks and Forty White" boys. Mr. Russell toured the country on the concert stage. Later he joined the staff of the old Indianapolis Freeman, then the leading weekly newspaper in the United States and a critical critic and correspondent.
When State Street, between 31st and 35th Streets, was the talk of the nation, it was *Synecid Russell*, the outlaw who "snecid" the outlaw's *Stroll*. For a number of years he published a tabloid newspaper on activities on the stroll. After he became a criminal suspended publication, Russell was written for a number of out-of-town writers.

Several benefits have been given in his behalf. The most recent one was held at the Indiana theatre three months ago. A number of leading actors and actresses participated. He was around 60 years of age at
Star of 2 Broadway Hits Says Actors Hide Tears
"Home and Children Mean More to Any Woman than Plaudits of Broadway or Europe," Says Star.
ALTHOUGH she can still hear the plaudits of Broadway and the music halls of Europe ringing in her ears, a memory that many a performer would love to cherish, pretty diminutive Lottie Gee, star of many musical successes, puckers her lips and pouts because she has never tasted any real happiness.
"You'll think me dreadfully old-fashioned and trite when I say that nome and children are the only things in the world than can bring a woman supreme happiness," declared Miss Gee between puffs, "but that is true, and the older a woman gets the more she realizes it.
"Oh, all of us who have been robbed of these things through our own short-sightedness or through circumstances pretend, that we are happy, but it all a bluff and don't contain woman's talent. We contain hard-boiled she pretends to be. Stage folk whose duty it is to make others happy by helping them forget their cares and worries through song and dance are often the most unhappy persons in the world. Once you know that you can't turn back although you know that keeping on means you must sacrifice many of the finer things of life to realize your ambitions.
"Married?" she asked in answer to my question. "That is a question I never like to answer. To the world I am just Lottie Gee. I am my best friend, but I might be bigger so many years that I have forgotten almost that it ever existed."
"If you won't insist upon knowing his name, I'll confess that I was married once—to a musician, a musician, a musician, long before anybody ever heard of me. All my later successes have been empty affairs. But why worry about that?" She flickered the ashes from her bristle with an air of non-compliance.
"Don't Ask My Age"
"Now please don't ask me how long I've been on the stage. Some people are just cute enough to start trying to figure out how old I am, and when women start counting back you know how far they can go.
"I was born in Newport, Kentucky and first started singing in a jubilee chorus in churches. I made my first appearance in New York with S. H. Dudley in 'His Honor the Barber. Then I was one of Aida Overton Walker's dancing friends, chance came almost by accident. I was doing a sister act on the same bill with Miller and Lyles once and somehow Mr. Miller liked

Likes America Best
"Europe is a wonderful place to stay in for a while, but America is the best place after all," declared Miss Gee.
"I have been to Europe on three different occasions. I first went abroad with Will Martin Cook's sympathetic orchestra in 1918. On another occasion I went alone for a tour of the music halls of England and Scotland, and again with Arthur Lyons's Chocolate Kiddies."

Unlike Harlem however, it isn't a black and tan; it all white.
Tex Guinan Says—
Harlem is the place, where the people have their sun-tan remain the entire year. It is inhabited by the "dusky" children of rhythm whose whole life is nonfound, whose religion is revivalful but, in the synapocation of the Black Bottom, Charleston, Ich and Snake-Hips . . . no snake's crawls or doubles could ever be fast as the act of one of those assorted schoolmates . . . in fact, there is more action in their colored hips than in Nurmur's legs.

A Short True Story.
Around the places where the race track followers hang out you hear such tales as these:
A young man not so long ago used to play the ponies, betting only dollars on the horses he could afford. Occasionally he would chip in fifty cents with someone else.
One day his mother died, partly from worry over a collapsed airplane partly from something else. After her death, he collected several thousand dollars in insurance and property and immediately began to splurge. Instead of fifty dollars he now spent fifty dollars and a hundred.
The bookle knew how much he had and proceeded to break him. His hets were not accredited to the regular days' intake but were kept separate from him personally.
At the end of two months, the legacy was gone and the son is now betting fifty cents and a dollar again. The company earns several thousand dollars to the good.
His Ears Deceived Him.
He is a waiter man by profession, and being a good waiter is a profession because he carries in his head more different kinds of dishes, knows how to eat all at his fingertips more foreign named dishes, dishes, dressings and wines than your average doctor or lawyer ever heard of, but this story is not about service. Several years ago when colored luminaries were few and far between, a show headed by some of the outstanding luminaries of the stage appeared at the old Academy of Music.
He determined to see it and purchased it and got in line. He approached the entrance the doorman yelled: "Holdup that Negro passing for white," and the

THE NEW YORKER
Ethel Barrymore's Mulatto Fails to Please the Critics
Negro Portrayals Should be Left to Colored Actors, Reviewers of "Scarlet Sister Mary" Agree.
COLUMBUS, O. — Critics are divided in their opinions on the merits of "Scarlet Sister Mary," the latest starring vehicle of Miss Ethel Barrymore, white, who essays to portray the role of a colored girl.
Writing in the Columbus Dispatch, H. E. Cherrington says:
"After all, the drama of the Negro is best received by his own race, though the white man has had some success in interpreting his lighter nature."
The critie of the Dispatch, and others, had agreed that, despite a high intelligence and acumen the distinguished white cast, the performance was a flop. Mr. Cherrington
a deadly monotonous second act and an almost equally monotonous third act.
Of course, there is the possibility that the performance of Miss Barrymore and the other white members of the cast may be so improved by the time the play opens, but receptions will be glossed over, but it is doubtful whether the play ever will be worked up to the point where the performers of the colored people whom it is about.
Miss Pterkin's novel has been generalized, as depicting a true condition, but Negro actors and actresses, under white direction, have found too often that white directors seek to force them into a actress, and Negro actors to the spirit of the part they play.
All the caricatures of form and manner and dialect, which are popularly supposed to represent the Ne-
"We may say, succinctly, that the drama is of course far too long, notably the second act, and that, with all the beautiful attempts at atmosphere, it is still lacking very much in African authenticity. "Much as it grieves us to say so, much of this lack is felt in the enactment of the distinguished star, whom we admire as much as anybody, but who seemed last night only not to project the Secret Sister Mary of Peterkin fiction, but hardly a memorable character at
Actress not Suited
Referring specifically to Miss Barrymore's work, the critic continues: "We cannot feel, on coming to consideration of the actors, that Miss Barrymore is really suited to this role. She cannot shake off the shackles of repression, which is the essence of her finest art, and Sister Mary is anything but a repressed woman." "Her voice does not carry in the medium of this dialect, although none of her support shares this lack. She has many beautiful moments and we cannot forget, for example, the two other scenes, but they were too few to make it an enjoyable evening."
Let Role Slip
The critic of the Ohio State Journal wrote:
"Dramatic history was about to be made, but it just wasn't." Scarlet Sister Mary proved a poor vehicle. She was not a good driver through the Miss Barrymore let the slip out of her control, and without her, it failed because of

a deadly monotonous second act and an almost equally monotonous third act." Of course, there is the possibility that the performance of Miss Barry-ann the other white members of the cast may be so improved by the time the play opens in New York that many of the imperfections will be glossed off. The other white members of the play ever will be worked up to the point where the performance will satisfy the colored people whom it is about. The novel has been generally acclaimed, as deploring a true condition, but Negro actors and actresses, under white direction, have found only too often that white directors seek to force them into a role that is not suited to the spirit of the part they play. All the caricatures of form and manner and dialect, which are popularly supposed to represent the Negro, are relied upon by the white directors who seek to make real Negroes not them as authenticate in appearances.
Miss Barrymore's performance undoubtedly suffers because she has been forced to construct a part according to the leaves of somebody's notebook, a part she neither knows. Negro players and the Negro public insist that the result of such direction is bound to be worse than it is some truth in their claim is seen in the failure of Miss Barrymore, and in the success of the Negro actor wherever he is given a chance, or in such a situation as "Porgy," "The Green Pastures," and -- "The Emperor Jones."
CONCORDS AND DISCORDS
Notwithstanding Much Musical Trash, Many of Our Musicians are Doing Creditable Work.
By W. LLEWELLYN WILSON
Baltimore, like other lave American cities, has from time to time developed many musicians who have devoted most of their time and talent to the development of modern dance music, which many of our more or less erudite musicians, who for the sake of a better descriptive name, "zazz"
This aphoristic Americanism, a pseudo-musical term, has come to mean anything from a meaningless cacophonous pattern to a regular rhythmic pattern, such as one hears when listening to the bands which feature so-called "jungle" music to the modernist composers, who in the quest for originality and a place in the musical sun succeed in producing ear-splitting harmonies developed from such a design, which are artificially overt against rhythmic patterns which give every indication of having their origin in minds of either candidates for, or the inmates of institutions, and maintained a deceived minds.
Notwithstanding the enormous output of musical trash imposed many of our musicians who devote their time to the development of modern music, they are also concentrating and producing music in the modern idiom, which reaches in every way the standards set up by the musical tradition to make good music.
Many of these natural musicians are lacking in training, according to the grace of God, are abundantly endowed with real musiclanship. This is particularly true of a number of our younger musicians. We have the Douglas High, a number of talented boys and girls who are graciously endowed with musical minds. One Lawson student is making a situation, is making quite a name for himself and at this time gives much promise of developing into a musi-

"KEEP SHUFFLIN" CO. LEFT STRANDED
Marcus Slayter Draws Week's Receipts and Disappears
PITTSBURGH—For the first time in the history of Marcus Slayter and Quintard Miller as producers, Slayter has done a walk-out on his company. The cast which made up "Keep the Tail" talented artists, Lilly Yun, Emmett Anthony, John La Rue and Luclie Henderson, the only race twins in the show business, and Louis Schooler as manager, had almost finished a week's run at the Lando Tennis Open at Cleveland about a month ago the show has played to fairness. But the people that have only received money to cover their expenses, no parts of their salary being forthcoming due to depression.
Saturday night the company was surprised by the show. He drew the bulk of the receipts and left just enough, including the midnight ramble, to cover expenses. The members of the show claim that only one member of the company had enough to reach New York.
Schooler, a faithful old veteran, has the gang on Seventh Avenue, New York, but at 12:30 p.m., Monday, of the troops were still in the city.

Capital More Dance Mad than Any Other City
U Street Halls Go Full Blast Every Night and All Day Long on Holidays.
OUTSIDERS are chuckling over Washington's silly dance hall war, but that is because outsiders don't realize that the nation's capital is the greatest dancing city in the country.
Busy, pleasure-loving U Street is the Seventh Avenue of Dixie. The northwest section is a miniature Harlem. A fortune is thrown away annually in tripping the street in the middle of the three short blocks which compose the dance hall territory.
Every night in the week, from one or all of the four main halls, can be seen gathering outside the halls that are seen gathering outside the halls and stay until dawn. Matinee dances are held on Wednesdays and Saturdays, and on holidays the dances begin about 9 a.m. and continue all day and on through
Four Main Halls
Once the battle was waged only between the Lincoln Colonnade and the Murray Casino. The Pythian Temple, which also made a bldg for the little trouble because it was supposed by a clientele all its own. Lately, the new Masonic Temple, with its crystal ball, its Bamboo Inn and a smaller hall for small parties and clubs, has made the situation acute. Among the leaders among dance hall promoters are Charlie Lee, manager of the Casino, Graves of the Colonnade, and Joe Bingham of the Pythian Temple. Among Charlie Lee is the most resourceful. He originated the idea of having a different dancing class at the Casino every night. Each

through the mails of all dances. The sniping of patrons became a racket and every conceivable means was employed to induce the members of one class to join another. In particular at the prettiest girls in each group because it was known that the class with a reputation of having the most attractive girls could get the largest male attendance. At the Pythian Temple, specialized in his famous 25-centure which appealed to the domestic and laboring classes. The dances here were different from those at the other halls in that they were rougher an, the "dicties" were smoothed here just a- the Bingham followers were just a- when they crashed the Casting.
Orchestras Involved
The other halls catered to government employees, Howard students and teachers, the groups, the musicians and their patrons, Shadow dances, spot-light dances, and lavish decorations all were used to win the fickle minded. The orchestras were drawn from all over the country as the competition became keen. Feast was held at the White Brothers, the Bellhops, the Ambassadors, McKinny's, Cotton Pickers have all been involved in the competition along with many other artists.
On one occasion Duke Ellington was brought from New York when the Masonic Temple .s first opened and the promoter lost over one thousand dollars at one clap. Dancing may be a pleasure to some people, but to capital promoters it is a very serious business, indeed.

CLEVELAND, Ohio—Worthy and Thompson ran circles around Peter Higgins, BKO at Keith's oft tenor at Cleveland last week. The act then moved to Akron to accomplish the same feat. This is the first time that he has rated the fast flying feet of the dusky duo above the work of the other stars of the bill. Meanwhile Joe Carmouche and Cleo Moura have taken Your Feet" company at the Globe with baby Jannine and Batey and Van Eps as the standouts. Azorsky and Billy McLauris's "Hot Feet" company arrived in town several days before their opening and we chatted with the cast. Nate Hunt and John Heubert and Mary Tuck, late of Nip and Tuck. . .

"THE DARK KNIGHT"
INSTALLMENT SIX
'Although Bogo towered head and shoulders above him, Carl felt a sharp resentment at his order that he leave the plantation that night. In spite of the giant's hard words the youth answer boldly: "I'm not going anywhere!"
With a quickness surprising in one of his bulk, Bozo seized Carl in his enormous grasp, shaking him fiercely. Carl felt his senses leaving him. "I show you you can't fool with me," the drunken Bogo began. He lifted him slowly above his head. Suddenly his body went rigid. A comedian at his back spoke. "Get Carl down—and let him down big, big boy, otherwise I blow your back out with his yere six shooter!" The giant felt the hard pressure in the small of his back but more than that he feared the lashing keenness in the other man's voice. Slowly he set Carl down, then elevated both of his hands. Hotshot's voice came again crisply.
Without a backward look Bogo plunged into the woods, and for a brief moment they could hear his great bulk crashing through the heavy underbrush.
"Whew!" Carl breathed in deep relief. "I thought I was a poner, a boy. 'Boy, ain't you got no sense a-tall?' Carl's friend scolded. "What you want to buck up to that gorilla like that for? Why, he was gonna bust you hold against a tree!" "Seems like I did act foolishly," Carl confessed sheepshield. "But that gorilla was telling me to leave this place I'm going to leave soon, but I wouldn't let him run me away."
They moved away toward the small cabin where they lived. "I didn't know you had a gun, Hotshot." Carl said as they made their way out of the cabin. "But I'm sure glad you did."
Hotshot gurgled joyously. "Boy 'at warnt no sho' nuff gun," he chortled. "That was only a stick I poked into that big guy's back!"
The sun poured down its fierce heat in a white brilliance that made Carl's eyes ache. As he watched the slow-moving, bent figures crawling between the snowy rows of cotton he wondered at their hardwork, their enthusiasm. The great, snow-white field stretched in front of him, and had it not been so hot, he could easily have compared it to a winter snow scene in Chicago. The cotton, free of the dreaded boll weevil and favored by the weather, was almost shoulder length. The snow and ice and flooded out richly from the enclosing bolls with lavish opulence. Carl loured in the doubtful shade of a huge slatted cotton wagon which was in the process of being filled. Before him sat the tripod under which hung the cotton scales. He was grateful that he was not one of the few people to sense sun, and during a period when none of the pickers came up to have their pickings weighed he

A "Fair Weather" Friend
He had not yet heard from Anton Bigal the banker. He had written him several weeks previously, telling him of his plight and asking about the position which the latter had promised, but no word had come. "Fair weather friend," the youth told himself contemptuously. However, Bigal or no Bigal, he would have told them what he could do. He would find a position somewhere, and then he'd forget all about this experience which was holding him enchained

He would tell them how he came down seeking his parents, and after two narrow escapes from death or serious injury had ended up as a cotton welcher on a plantation. He would also tell his friends about the be making among the cotton pickers. They'd get a kick out of that. Folks didn't seem to worry about getting married. They just worked all day and laughed and sat and

"Lo, boy," a deep gruff voice spoke close by his side. Unheard, Colonel Barre had ridden up. "How's' cotton comin' in?" Carl rose to his feet, handing the cotton tally book to the tall, white haired man who sat his shining black horse so proudly. "Fine, Colonel," he answered. After a brief scrutiny of the book the curious looking man returned it to Carl. "I'll say it's fine," he rumbled. "Best cotton crop I've had in years. No weevil or nothin' this year!" He squinted out. over the vast white field, his eyes lighting with pride, and with something warmer than pride—actual love. Colonel Barre was appearance with the old Southern aristocrat.

after his neighbors had given way to modern innovations and had sold their plantations to more progressive folk. With the workers on his farm, all of whom were dark, he was invariably kind and fair, and no one could come on his place and molest them. Now his eyes rested again on Carl.
"Son," he said abruptly, "how would you like to keep my books for me? Take charge of the whole shebang, stock and barrel?" The youth, obviously, he knew that the blue eyes old ristocrat liked him, and he hated to tell him that within a week or two he would be leaving the place.
"That'd be fine, Colonel," he stammered, "but--that is, I was thinking of g--away."
"Away!" the old man roared. Then he snorted. "Where in damnation would you find better treatment than you get here?" he inquired. his already florid visage growing deep before Carl could answer. he spoke. Before Carl his voice his voice was softer. kinder. "I must like for you to stay here, Son." he said, a strange wistfulness tinging his words. "After all, I'm an old man, and." he added significantly. "I've neither kith nor kin." He paused to let that sink in. then added. "Of course there are a lot of things that you, and I understand without putting them into words—things I couldn't say to anyone else but whole confounded plantation."
Carl Reconsiders
Carl nodded silently. Since he had come to the place he had conceived a queer affection for the old man, in spite of the fact that according to all the tales told up North he should hate the man, and all others born below the Mason-Dixon line. He found himself toying with the idea of remaining on this beautiful, shirling old plantation, then he brushed him off. He immediately had wanted him to be educated and to become somebody worth while in life, and here he was considering doing just what she had hoped he would escape.
"Whyn't you get your yourself of these here wench-pardon, son—women, and stay with me?" the Colonel asked again, a note of almost pleading creeping into his
The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, October 11, 1930
"Maybe I will, at that, Colonel," Carl evaded. "T'll think it over." To his relief Elmra and another woman were dragging their plump cotton sacks up to be weighed.
"Hi, there, Elmryl!" the Colonel shouted, as though he, too, had been conscious of the tension between himself and Carl. "And how you been, Susie? Still havin' a good time with that no 'count ole man of yours'"
The women smiled up at him, and made flippant replies that seemed to tickle the Colonel mightily. Wheeling his big horse so that it pranced on its hind legs, he galloped away in high spirits.

"He's a sight, ain't he, Susie?" asked Elimira. Although her words were addressed to her companion, her bold black eyes were on Carl. When he weighed her cotton she found a pretext in a broken shoe string to remain behind while her friend hurried back into the fields. "Mistuist Carl," she said softly when she had arisen, "Why you treat me so cold like?" "Do I treat you cold. Elimira?"
"Do I treat you cold, Elimira?"
"You treat me colder a snow storm, Mistuh Carl," she assured him, "an I want to treat you warm. I —"
"Lo, Elimira," a new voices introduced. Elim was a deep, rich contratto. He was thrilling quality about it that made Carl's heart leap before he even saw the speaker. A frown flitted over Elimira's face.
"What cha say, Toto?" she replied, a little ungraciously. "When you get here?"
"Oh, I've been here three or four days. Restin' up," she added significantly. She was regarding Carl with obvious interest. "See you got a new weigher," she hinted.
"This is Toto, Mistuh Carl," Elimira said, a shade of sullenness darkening her face.
When Carl turned and faced the woman he knew at once his haunting sense of acceptance was fulfilled, the best feeling for had happened. "Glad to meet you," he said in a low voice.
Toto's skin was the color and texture of rich brown velvet, and her softly oval face was framed by a mass of silky, deeply waved black hair. But the most startling thing about her were her cloudy grey eyes, long, and heavily lashed, and these, set in the dark beauty of her face, gave the effect of a bit of clean sky unexpectedly through open, cloudy dark clouds. Her mouth was wide, generous, with a full, finely carved lower lip and a thinner, sterner upper lip, both the color of blooming poppies.
Toto a Beautiful Specimen
Toto turned to Elmira. "You c'mn on back out to th' tief's now, honey," she said, as though she were conferring a favor. Elmira seemed on the verge of making a sharp retort, but Toto's imperious eyes were upon her, and they were unsmilling. Elmira dragged back into the field without a backward glance. At once the grey eyes were colled horizontally and caused the center liberately "Would you call 'me'?" he asked with grim politeness. Peco answered, then he spoke, although nervously.
"Yes, I was. Jus. 'cause you're big as the side of a house, don't think you kin tek eny al gu you want."
"What was you calculatin' to do 'bout hit?' Bogo asked in the same smiling again.
"How long you been here, Carl?" she asked easily.

The Only Living Person to Set Foot on the North Pole is a Negro
Fighting the frozen terrors of the North where toes freeze and snap off like icicles, clothing cannot be removed for months and where the wind cuts the face into a frozen mass of blood, Matt Henson, second-in-command of the Peary expedition conquers the forbidding North Pole.
This is the story of a Negro who accomplished a task at which the human race had been striving in vain for more than 2,000 years. The first ever to attempt that feat was Pythea, a Nice, in 325 B.C., but he perished in the ice with his companions. Since then his roll of brave men who tried it has been a long one. Frobisher, Perry, Rose, Rae, Ingefeld, Greeely, Nansen, Amundsen. Among those to lose his life with all his companions was the gallant Sir Joan Franklin. Of course, the greater part of the credit for the discovery of the North Pole belongs to Admiral Peary, but had there been no Henson, there might also have been no Peary, and the voyage to the Pole might have ended as scores of others had done. On Henson developed the duty of protecting the seas, these were so difficult, unusual, and intricate that neglect of the slightest one might have meant disaster, and perhaps death for all.
As it was, the goal was reached only after twenty years of the most gruelling labor. Peary and Henson! The names are inseparably linked. Peary is the right hand; Henson the left. Matthew Alexander Henson was born in Charles County, MD, August 8, 1866, of poor parents, and belongs to that hardy race of adventurers who have made civilization what it is today. While others stayed easily at home, they went out across uncharted seas, and deserts, or into primeval forests and unknown lands to find the wild and savage people and undergoing a thousand dangers more often than not for the sheer love of it, thereby increasing the sum of human knowledge.
An Early Adventurer
From the first, Henson showed the stuff of which he is made. At 17 he shipped as a cabin-boy on a ship bound for China. The next voyage he sailed as an able sapper, a grade usually reached only after several years of apprenticeship. At 21 he attracted the attention of Peary, then only a heliantan in the United States Naval Service. Peary himself, one of the greatest men of all time, at once recognized his worth, and took him as his body-servant. It was in this capacity that he went with Peary on the expedition to Nicaragua, but Henson rose until he was second in command of the expedition when it left America for New York in 1909. In 1801 he started with Peary for his first taste of the ice. The Pole was not reached until 1909. In the intervening years, Henson lived for the greater part of the time, a life of hardship of which the average human being can have but the faintest comprehension.
Think of the discomfort of an unheated apartment when it is but 20 degrees above, and then try to imagine, if you can, what it must be like traveling for months and months with the thermometer at from 20 to 65 below, sometimes in raging blizzards and sleeping in ice-huts, the floors of which are eternally cold. For food, no nice juice steals but pressed beef, hard as plug tobacco, stale biscuits, and the steak of tough dogs or the sickening fat of seals. No arctic clothing that is ever beaten, stale biscuits, and the steak of tough dogs or the sickening fat of seals. Freezing of the nose and the whole of the face is an ordinary occurrence, for there are certain parts of the face that cannot be covered. Try to do this and your breath, congealing on the covering, will freeze the covering on to your face, taking the skin off when you attempt to remove it.
Lost Eve and Toes
Sometimes you put your hand to your face and find it covered with blood. It is the blizzard that has been driving the particles of granulated ice through the skin. You'll discover that no razor in the hand of an unskilled carber can ever be as bad as the wind. Henson lost an eye in this manner.
Again, you might stump your toes against a block of ice. You forget it later when you pull off your boots you'll take out your foot minus your toes. They had been frozen and had snapped off like icicles. Peary lost all of his toes except one in this manner.
No radios, no cinemas, no street cars, none of the comforts of civilization, but the black darkness of the sky; no sound but the snapping of ice-mountains, making new members of the crash of huge bowlers of ice picked up by air and sent hurtling through the air. On and on as far as the eye can see nothing but the white piltless desolation of the Arctic eager to make your body one with itself, forever.
There are other dangers. They beset you at every step. The ice is liable to crack in spite of the cold

"Who's afraid of Bogo?" he asked calmly.
And not until: Toto left him, was Carl, to encounter Bozo again.
- End of Installment Six -
Carl has met Toto, who has so completely 'fascinated him, that his dreams of success in Chicago seem to have temporarily vanished. But Bogo has something to say about that. He sees the difference between the idealistic Carl and the altruism

Or if it does not come together, a sudden wind combs it. might take away the part on which you are standing, and you will be separated from your companions forever. Or if you desert your solar reliance is your dog. But they are liable to attack by a mysterious disease, which wipes them off; or your food gone you may be forced to eat them.
Must Not Remove Clothes
For weeks, perhaps months, you cannot take off your clothes. Bathing is impossible, and the vermin breeding next to your skin torment you incessantly.
Back at home the folks after a week's cold snap are impatient for the th- spring. For you there is always ice and after the day's work with your friends you have yet your ice-hut to build. Yield to that compelling desire to sleep but for an instant and you'd lie down to wake again.
Under these and often worse conditions you plod on with the accumulated weightness of the days in con-

stant peril and anxiety with no sure knowledge of reaching anything else but death. For what is your goal? A question mark.
Yes, Arctic exploration is perhaps the most difficult task man can attempt. It calls for the utmost in physical endurance, courage, and determination. It is at least as dangerous as war, and more uncomfortable.
On that first voyage to the polar regions, Henson tasted of every hardship and danger that had fallen to the lot of the explorer, save death. But in 1893 he was back with Pearl and again in 1895, '97, '99, and every other expedition until the Pole was reached.
He says: "The memory of the winter and summer of 1894 and 1895 will never leave you, the recollection of the long race with death across the 450 miles of the ice-cap of North Greenland in 1895 with Commander Peary and Hugh Lee, are still the most vivid."
On to the Pole
On July 6, 1908, after 18 months of preparation, the expedition leaves Long Island Sound, N.Y., on the Roosevelt.
It is a body of fine, strong, stronging men, all athletes and giants in the pink of condition. They have been specially picked and the white race has nothing finer to offer in the matter of physique.
There is George Borup, breaker of athletic records; also Captain Bartlett, himself a polar veteran; Prof. McMillan; Prof. Marvin; Henson, the only colored person, is a small man in comparison but he is as tough as rubber. He had led the simple life and has trained for the task. Above all, he has the practical experience. He is 42.
He, as was said, is second in command. The bulk of the most necessary work and all those finer details and trifles, which might make or mar the expedition, had been left to his care.
Among these are the making of the sledges, which is very, very important. Henson has designed a sledge which is superior to that of the Eskimos who have been making them perhaps for centuries. It is now to be seen in the Museum of New York History. New York City. All has been, so well, executed, that

pleased. Death. One by One
At last the Arctic is reached and the weeding out process begins. Mem-
der the strain. The first to go is Prof. McMillan, a good-natured giant; the life of the funeral' George Borup, the athlete, three Eskimos, and 16 dogs follow. After them Dr. Goodsell, who is no longer fit to travel; Prof. Marvin dies and is buried.
The pick of the pick go on cuttings through the ice and snow and climbing over mountains, advancing and retreating to advance, fighting their way against the terrific forces of Nature over paths, untridden by human foot, and undergoing each day punishment such as no prize-fighter is called on to endure. At last the survivors reach 88 degrees north, the furthest point reached by man after more than 2000 years.
It is 2 degrees the Pole—132 mankind's most difficult path to be trod by man. The temperature is 50 below zero.
Now it is necessary to limit the number of men so that there will be less mouths to feed and that there may be reserves in case of need. Sis are to go; the commander, Henson, and 4 of the fittest Eskimos. Peary has selected Henson not because of any sentiment but because he is a fitter in every way. "Primarily for his adaptability and fitness for the work," said Eary; "secondly, because he loudly." Henson can handle a sledge better than any man living except some of the best of the Eskimos.
Peary and Henson Alone
The time has come to start on the last lap of the journey. A farewell party is given at which the principal dish is a stew made of a weak dog. There are five sledges, eight dogs to
t on the treasured map of the was encountered.
bers of the party begin to yield uneach.
Farewells are said by comrades who might never meet again. "At last," says Henson, "the captain (Bartlett) has gone. Commander Peary and I were alone (save for the four Eskimos) the same as we had been so often in the past years and as we looked at each other we realized our position and we knew without speaking that the time had come for us to demonstrate that we were the men, who, it had been ordained, should unlock the door which held the mystery of the Arctic. Without an instant's hesitation the order to push on was given."
The party pushed on, craving smoothly, thanks to the experience born of 23 years of toll. Henson, however, came very near losing his life. "It was during the march of the 3d of April," he says, "that I endured an instant of hideous horror." He was crossing a lane of ice when a block of ice he was using as a support slipped from under his feet and before he knew it he fell into the water.
Embarrassed by his heavy clothing, he was sinking, his gloved hands being unable to take hold of the ice when one of the Eskimos pulled him out. "He had saved my life," says Henson, "but I did not tell him so, for such occurrences are taken as part of the day's work, and the sledge had safeguarded was of much more importance for it held, as part of its load, the commander's sextant, the mercury, and the coils of piano-wire that were the essential portion of the scientific portion of the expedition." That same day Peary himself had the same experience.
Henson. First at Pole
At last on April 6, 1908, the party made camp feeling sure from the distance travelled that the Pole had been reached. Peary, worn with fatigue, went to sleep. Henson walked out. Later when measurements had been taken, it was discovered that Henson in his walk had been the first mortal to stand on the top of the mortal. (See Liberty Magazine, July 17, 1926).
It is a matter of human interest that when Peary actually had his fingers on the prize, so to speak, he found himself too weary to take those last few steps and stand at the point he had given his lifetime to win.
The next day the Stars and Stripes were planted at the Pole. The goal of the ages had been won!
"As I stood at the top of the
"world" sava. Henson, "and thought of
him."
the hundreds of men who had lost their lives in the effort to reach it. I felt profoundly grateful that I as the personal attendant of the commander, had the honor of representing my race in the historic achievement."
The long trail was finished. The work was done. There was nothing left to do but to return and tell the world. At least so thought the tale of the doing to an expectant heroes.
A Disappointed Hero
But how was Peary and Henson received? The story is too well-known to need repetition here. An impostor, Captain Freidrick Cook, had returned a few weeks before saying that he had reached the Pole. It was Peary who had claimed his claim, and it may be some satisfaction to know that Captain Cook later found himself in Atlanta penitentiary on another charge of fraud.
Peary had to submit to all sorts of questions from stupid congressmen—questions that would have made an Eskimo laugh, even though he were an idiot. One senator asked: "How many pounds of nails did you take for your sleighs?" and naturally enemies of the Negro took occasion to discredit Peary further by asking him why did he take a Negro when there were plenty of white men. At last after long testing of instruments by scientists, it was acknowledged that Peary had won the prize of the ages. Congress gave him a gold medal and raised 'him to the highest rank in the service. That was all for this man who had brought such immense prestige to the United States Naval Service and to the nation at large.
England had been striving to reach that goal nearly 200 years before America became a nation. To encourage her explorers she had been giving them titles and grants of $50,000 to $100,000. In 1850 she gave Robert McClure $50,000, a sum worth five times that now. The same has been true of Scott, Shackleton and all her polar explorers who have accomplished something of unusual worth.
Truly as some one has said, republics are ungrateful.
And Henson?
Wife Didn't Recognize Him
When he returned he was so worn and thin that even his wife did not recognize him for the period of rest, sometimes on a lecture tour, earning sometimes as high as $300 a week—had he been a jazz dancer he would have got a thousand.
When the interest in the achievement died, he was forced to take a job in a warehouse at $16 a week. Later, through the efforts of friends in Congress, he was given a job in the U.S. Customs Service at the stingy wage of $20 a week, which was raised years later to $40. He wrote a book, *A Negro Explorer at the Fort Fort* (1903) published by Hysteria of New York. He sold for only a dollar, but it fell almost flat. The white people were interested chiefly in Peary, and the Negroes, after a spasm of pride, promptly forgot the hero and his book. They had given him a dinner and a gold watch. Lately a group of white business men in Bronx, N.Y., hearing of Henson for the first time, presented him with a silver loving cup. This and the consciousness of the service he has rendered science, and his people of all, have been his only reward.
Matter of fact America, on the whole, see little good in polar exploration. Most people think of the polar regions only as a cold place with plenty of ice, a fine spot to keep away from, and that those who want to go there must be fit subjects for a humatic asylum.
But if that is so, why have all the leading nations been stiving to reach it? Were all those who had been trying to reach it for 2143 yearsools? Again, does the overcoming of great difficulty count for naught? Is all life to be measured in dollars and cents? But there is an economic value. Oil and coal are being discovered in the far North. The axis of the earth, too, is shifting, and who knows, that it may be warm again for human habitation. Florida and New York, both once in the Arctic, or perhaps the Antarctic. If ever that day comes Peary and Henson will be honored as we of today, honor Columbus. It took the world 300 years to appreciate. Columbus.
There is a foresight in Nature that leads certain men to prepare the way for the things that are to be things, whose tremendous importance they themselves can but faintly glimpse. The world calls them look; but Life, wiser than all, knows what it is doing.
A most fortunate thing: Henson is still alive where we may all honor him even as Admiral Byrd, who went to the South Pole, is being honored today. No one deserves it better than Henson!

Is Free Love a Dog's Idea?
By RITA RANDALL
There is nothing new in free love, a multitude of wives or husbands one after another, or any of these things which we see all around us.
Dogs have enjoyed free love since the first male dog started out over a new world in search of a mate. So have many other forms of animal life.
We, with our superior intelligence sure not put ourselves upon back because we have managed after several millions of years to make popular something that Fido and Towser have always found convenient.
The dog's ideal has always been a mate whenever I want a mate, no matter where I find her. Men's ideal has always been "one wife, one home."
Seems to me we should put ourselves on the back when we can able to live up to the old form, rather than when we drop down to that which has always been possessed by the animals.

Hamlin Putting the Yellowjackets Through Rigid Practice for Buffaloes
INSTITUTE, W.Va.—Coach Hamlin has been sending his charges through brisk scrimmage for the past week pointing them for the Howard game on October 18.
It looks as though several new faces will be seen in the Yellowjacket line—up this year, in the place of some of last year's veterans. Carrington, Smith, Sparkman, Lowe and Hunter are new men who are showing up well in practice. There are also several high school stars, such as Meadows of Huntington, Brooks of Charleston, Ross of Kelly Miller, Clarksburg and McCoy, also of Kelly Miller High School.
As was the case last year, the quarterbacks, Whitted and Barnes, are waging another nip and tuck battle for the honor of directing the varsity team this year. It seems to be a case for six in one hand and a half dozen in the other as to who will start the game against Howard.
Captain Anderson is booked to play a bang-up game this year, in an effort to make this year's team a championship team.

Found Bride was Wed While on Honeymoor
WASHINGTON — Charging that his wife had deceased him into believing that her former marriage had been terminated by the death of her husband, H. H. Dickerson, War, James H. Dickerson, 827 Twenty-sixth Street, northwest, filed a petition in the District Supreme Court last Thursday asking for the annulment of his marriage to Bessie Dickerson, 2120 Ward Avenue. Dickerson says in his petition that he went through a marriage ceremony with the defendant in the District of Columbia on June 29, 1920. Several days later, he states, he was married to Bessie Dickerson, a riation certificate among her effects, showing that she had married Leslie J. Turner, 1215 New York Avenue northwest, on September 30, 1911. Upon inquiry she told him that Turner had been a World War he says. Turner had been dead so long, she told him, she had forgotten about their marriage. he states. He made no further inquiry he says, but he has since discovered that she is still Turner's lawful wife. Dickerson is represented by Attorney Edmund Hill.
WATCHING THE BIG PARADE BY RALPH MATTHEWS
Dr. Wood Lays Down the Law
From reliable sources I get the information that Dr. Francis M. Wood, director of colored schools, looks with disdain upon those persons in the public school system who break down and some rumors, which I have not bothered to verify, go so far as to say that persons who are unfortunate enough to get themselves done up in printers' ink will be forced to do so. I am not sure if that may result in their dismissal if the explanations are unsatisfactory. While such a decree may be actuated the noblest intentions—an honest desire, perhaps, to prove the morals of dispense—will not fail to take such underex advantage of the teachers while preachers whose work calls for a closer adherence to the higher precepts are permitted to go scot free.
There are too Many Loopholes
Far be it from me to criticize or attempt to offset any conscientious effort to make any group of people lead better lives; the method of accomplishing this end, however, may be open to discussion.
The order, as I understand it, seems inadequate. It offers too many loopholes. It is narrowed down to the equation, "Do what you darn please, but don't let the world know it." This naturally creates secretiveness and in a group of people composed of at least 70 per cent old raids, I think there is secretiveness enough.
It also places a responsibility on the press that it should not be expected to bear. For instance, of say, ten or fifteen years from now, a survey should be made which reveals that hell-raising among teachers has increased instead of decreased, people will point an accusing finger at the AFRO and say, "Ah ha; you are failing down on the job of keyhole snooping. Your wire tapping department is falling down and your 'other people's business' department is not on the alert." We could never live that down.
The Press is Handicapped
As a matter of fact the paper would not be to blame at all. Our hands would be tired and evil-minded people would commit all sorts of devilry right in our face because they could take advantage of our code of ethics.
A Typical Incident
Already, I for one, am feeling the pressure of this imposed responsibility. Only last week a wife called me up to be me when we went to another man's wife. He was a school teacher, she explained, and if it were published it would serve them both right.
I informed her that I already knew women of our number of husbands out with other men's wives, but I was too busy to go around rounding up philandering husbands. It was, then that she informed me of D. William, who will go along with me and sign a sworn statement about what we see? I asked.
"Oh, no." she replied, "I want to stay in my background until you talk to me. I will face him with the clipping."
That merely goes to prove how hard it is for our newspaper people to make other people behave therefor. We can't get any co-operation.
Good from Fear
Forced morality is not good morality. Being good through fear, while it may make the world a better, if a less interesting, place in which to live, it will earn no laurels in heaven. Were I in St. Peter's place I would have a great deal more regard for people who kicked up the devil when they felt like it than I would for those who had the desire but not the guts.
Defeats Own Program
The drastic measure threatened by the director bids fair to defeat his own program which I presume is to teach children how to live. By all the rules of human nature, the people most likely to kick over the traces will be the smarter ones. Goodness and dumbness are generally found in the same place, people of the same age and background are after a spell to become bored to death with the rather hum-drum existence they are forced to live in Baltimore. They are bound sooner than later to be by the way or other from sheer desperation. Those of questionable mentality and lack of imagination can go on indefinitely perfectly oblivious to the graveyard-like atmosphere of the school. The smart teachers will be given the sack and the schools will be manned (or womaned) by a group of circumspirit imbeciles. This is be very well if we propose to hold school only on Sunday in the basement of churches and teach only the scriptures.
A Few Suggestions
I suggest, what in my eagism, I consider a far better plan. Instead of firing teachers for running hog-wild suppose we used the approved software to customize a teaching app after school and have written their offence into a promise 500 or more times like, "I will not get drunk anymore." Or, they could be yanked into the administration building and be made to stand in the corner, or they could be sent to their homes and with very grave face say to their parents, or husband, or
13 COLLEGES OFFERING
EXTENSION COURSES
Bureau of Education Finds Three also Give Correspondence Courses.
MORGAN LISTED
Hampton, Tuskegee, Storer Union In.
WASHINGTON, (CNS). — The of William V. Gibson II, 614 E. Eager fice of Education reports that in 1928-1929 thirteen Negro educational institutions reported approximately 1,000 students, with 200 completing the work undertaken. Three of the thirteen also report an enrollment of correspondence students; thus enlarging their campus boundaries to meet the needs of special students living at distances.
As a result of a study of a specialist in adult education, detailed information has been compiled concerning 430 white students whose report that they offered a type extension work for the year 1928-1929.
Among thirteen Negro institutions are: Tuskegee Institute, Morris Brown, Atlanta; Tuskegee Institute, Atlanta; Baltimore; Baltimore; Alarm Agricultural and Mechanical College, Mississippi; Smith University; Salem, California; Salem, California; C.; Prairie View State College, Texas; Paul Quim College, Waco; Hampton Institute, Virginia; Richmond, Virginia; Hampser Perry, VA; and West Virginia State College.
Correspondence students were reported by three of these institutions: Simmons University, the University of Virginia State College, with 88 students in 1922-1923 and 26 completing the work in 1924. The 114 extension class students both on and off campus, taught by faculty, dandy, darling, farm crops, home economics, poultry and English.

Lions Meet North Carolina College in Night Clash This Week
OXFORD Pa—With but nine men lost from last year's Lincoln University squad, 75 candidates, including 35 holdovers, have responded to the whistle of Coach Taylor on Tondall Feldt, preparation for the Lions' final. The Lions mentor is bemotioned the loss of "Babe" Veeney, right guard, who was thrown for a semester's loss by the Lincoln University, who was a terror to all opposing forwards met in 1921, will not again be eligible until 1931. Line Coach Walls is looking for a worthy substitute for Veeney left guard who graduates in June.
Promising prospects are Cates, a letter man of '29; Harry City, a 188 pound Atlantic City lad, who may make his letter to Coach Feldt, left guard, a junior from Penn High of Harrison; Mournin, a junior who is making great strides toward a berth, and Ashby, a stalwart freshman of pound, from Central High in Philadelphia.
The work of Kane, all-American tackle of '29, is pleasing the coaches, and ames, and the players, will probably be "Stretch" Sydnor, again at right end, with Perkins, last year, getting a tight run or the other end job from Harrison of New Orleans High. French of Raleigh, Mills of Hackensack, and Roberts of St. Louis. The backfield promises some new faces to replace the sterling work of Shorty Carter, quarterback, lost in a game with LaMarc, a former letter man; B. Hunhes, star of '29; Waters of Asbury Park, and Kane of Haines of speed will undoubtedly flank Captain Harrson at fullback. Archie Lewis, flash of last year's season, and Baskett, home team, have the call but are being closely pressed by M. Preston and E. Smith, the first base star of 1929 C.I.A.A. championship baseball
Anderson Out
Coach Taylor is anxiously looking for a punter to fill the shoes of "Big Jim" Anderson, who is still suffering lez weakness following infections in the crucial, games of last year. Whether Andy can start in the early games seems doubtful. With this stellar booter out, Harmon or LaMar will probably bear the brunt of the punts.
First Game under Lights
The Lions leave Wednesday for Durham, N. C. to play North Carolina under the flood at Richmond. The Lions will spend Wednesday night at Richmond, Va., as guests of Union University. Twenty-five men will make the trip.
The squad is also preparing feverishly for the Yankee Stadium in New York on November 1. The Lincoln supporters are pulling strong for the Lions to repeat their victory of '29 when they throw the Hampton 100 at home before throng anticipating victory for the Seasiders.

Philadelphia Church to Hold 50th Anniversary
PHILADELPHIA. — The Berean Presbyterian Church, 1824 College Services in honor of its fiftieth anniversary with special meetings and services throughout the week of October the pastor, Arthur E. Rankin is the pastor.
ADVERSE PUBLICITY AIDED DR. BECTON
Church Only Partly Filled Until Newspapers Ran Headlines.
COMING TO BALTIMORE
Manager Davies is Speaker at AFRO Club.
The unfavorable comments printed about, Dr. Becton have helped as much as the favorable. It was these headlines that helped fill Tindley Temple to its capacity," declared Becton's manager, Mac G. Davies, to members of the AFRO Club at its weekly meeting, Saturday.
"Since that very day the church has been filled up. Dr. Becton has been on the road for eight years and now in spite of the various hardships and handicaps he has had, he is continually going and our program has grown bigger and better. He is a group of seven who constitute the world's Gospel Peace Party, headed by Dr. G. Wilson Becton, deplored the lack of an economic program on the part of most churches which he has visited and which he heads to," his headquarters, to Texas.
"Many of the churches are overwhelmed by debt," he continued. "One is not in a Negro church thirty minutes before he leaves, when on an other hand, the same church could probably give one man employment to work out a plan union which the church could operate at a commercial advantage. But the church has no time pleasing for money. Most of them get their support, through sympathy. They believe that people should give simply because a church is a church and is responsible to God, who gives us all things."
Should Give Employment
"The church should have an economic program just as a newspaper or any other business. It is our business, and people that there are those who are prepared, those who are educated, those who are trained to give instructions along these lines without seeking employment, and those who have been especially trained, as in music, believing that a good choir is a valuable asset to a church. Upon the conclusion of the choir concert, which over three thousand persons attended, Mr. Davies was here to make an announcement of the appearance of the party at a Baltimore Church. He concluded hir: talk with the statement that their program was always open to inspection by everybody. James Asendio, social secretary to Dr. Becton, was also introduced and commended the AFRO and its manning both sides of the Becton stories.
Talk on Circulation
Several members of the circulation and advertising departments took part on the program. J. Edgar Stanley gave a short talk on the circulation department of a newspaper. The work of the editorial department, he declared, is to give the public what it wants in the way of news; that the mechanism of the circulation department attractive paper. When Henry Ford found his sales decreasing, he fixed up the Ford so that it is now one of the hottest things on the street; we must do the same, asserted Mr. Stanley. More importantly, the advertising manager gave a reading, also Miss M. R. Anderson and A. N. Johnson.

TAILOR ALSO PEEVED
(BY Carroll News Service)
BOSTON—Charged, with failure to pay campaign workers which he engaged while managing the campaign, Mr. R. Anderson Love, white, appointed pastor of the A.M.E. Zion Mission at Springfield, may face civil and criminal court proceedings here. According to Mrs. Margaret Ward and others who participated in the campaign under the management of the Rev. Mr. Lowe, he came here three months ago and after opening offices under the name of the Metropolitan Bureau of Public Relations, was placed in charge of the campaign. His appointment to this cause considered dissatisfaction among local politicians at the time.
When pay day came, according to these workers, the Rev. Mr. Lowe failed to make the ghost walk. Among those who may the claims against him are Mrs. Isadore Love, Ed. Butler, Mrs. Ruth Prince, Mrs. Eva Hardy and Mrs. Bessie Wardell.
Tailor Pceved

The RBI has said he did not only securely in security management of the political campaign, but was whirlwind lover. In less than a month, after meeting Mr. Sparrow, he student, he had won her heart, and hand in marriage.

Panned Kale
Strip the kale from the midrids and discard them and the stringy portions. Wash the kale thoroughly in several waters and cut it into small pieces. For each quail, make 2 tablespoon of kale or other fat. Cut it in a skillet, and kale and cover the skillet to keep in the steam which forms when the juices of the kale are drawn out by heat. The kale will be done in from 10 to 20 minutes. Stir the kale flour over water, mix well, pour in the mixture of cream or milk, and stir thickened. Season with salt and pepper.
Cabbage, Spaghetti, and Cheese
Four cups abbreved cabbage, 1½ cups spaghetti, broken in small pieces, two cups butter, 1½ pound American cheese, 1 teaspoon salt.
Cook the spaghetti in boiling salted water until tender. In a knife make a sauce, butter, milk, and Shave up the cheese and add it to the hot sauce. Put the cabbage, spaghetti, and sauce in a butterbaking dish in layers of bread crumbs. Top with buttered bread crumbs. Cook for 30 minutes in a moderate oven.
Creamed Oysters
One quart oysters, 2½ cups milk and oyste: liquor, 1½ cup butter, 1½ cup flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1½ teaspoon pre-1/2 teaspoon onion juice, if desired.
Cook the oysters in their liquid until the edges begin to curl. Do not let them cook too long or they will be tough. Strain off. To this liquid add enough milk to make 2½ cups. Butter the butter and add the stirring until blended. Add the liquid. Cook for 5 or 10 minutes to do away with the starchey flavor of the flour. Add the oysters seasoning and serve at once in potty shells or on toast. It creamed oysters stand, the sauce became too
Boiled Dinner
Four pounds corn beef, 4 quarts water, 3 large onions, cut in half, 3 large limes, 3 parsley 5 medium cabbage, cut in half, 3 potatoes, large cut in halves or quarters, ½ head cabbage, medium cut in stalks.
A good piece of beef and cover it with 4 quarts of cold water. Allow the water to come to the boiling point and then discard it. Cover the meat again with 4 more quarts of water and the meat to the meat out of the water. If the liquid is too salty, pour off part of it and add sufficient fresh water to have at least 3 pints of well-flavored broth. The vegetables are added at different times upon cooking and are needed to cook the tender. Add the onions first, then 20 minutes later, the turnips, parsnips, carrots, and potatoes. Fifteen minutes before these vegetables are done, remove the onions and clean them and cut in sections. Serve the boiled dinner on a large platter, with the meat in the center and the vegetables drained and placed neatly around it. The advantage of this method of cooking the tender and yet not overcooked, is as sometimes the case in a boiled dinner.

Household Hints
To varnish paper on the kitchen and bathroom walls, mix one ounce of gum arabic, three ounces of glue, and a bar of soap; dissolving all in a quart of water, and apply with a paint brush.
To set color in wash fabrics, put five cents worth of sugar of lead in four quartes of water, and the goods for about twelve hours. Then rinse and dry in the shade.
Heat the lemons thoroughly before squeezing by dropping them into hot water for several minutes, and they will yield almost double the quantity of juice that will if not heated.
...
A useful mahogany polish is made of olive oil and vinegar, two tablespoonfuls of oil to a dessertspoonful of vinegar. Mix well, apply with an old flannel, and polish.
Try this method of cleaning kid gloves. Mix 15 drops of solution of ammonia and a half pint of spirits of turpentine. Put the gloves on and apply the mixture with a brush, repeating until clean. Then hang in the air to dry.
Good percolated coffee is made by using the quantity of coffee with cold water and allowing it to boil only three minutes.
To take away the scuffed and peeled appearance from shoes, rub them with teh white of an egg. It will paste the broken places down that the scuffed the scuffed appearance entirely.
Smoke can be avoided, and the work lessened, by putting one rounded tablespoonful of oil and it will be necessary to grease the pan, as the cakes will not stick.
After scouring brass ornaments until they have taken on all the polish that will adhere, apply a thin coat of oil, and they will keep bright for years.

- AMAZING STORIES
The Author has below started a series of extraordinary hypothetical stories which draw heavily upon the imagination but which pique the curiosity of the thinking reader, by projecting the reader several years into the future, when doubtless air travel will have provided unplanned tand travel, when science will have achieved the possible* in effecting frequent and comparatively easy communication with the planet Mars, and when life will have completely controlled by the limitless scientific invention.
possess. Not only are these stories ingenuous but stimulate breath-taking thrills, by depicting the possibilities of life on the earth years after the present generation has become extinct. The author has indeed wizarded imagination and you must agree that he writes with astonishing reality.
"It looked like nothing so much as the interior of a broadcasting station."
IMAGINED that I heard shots down there. Bennett flashed through my mind. The plane went into a steep bank and began to climb. The tall man bore me into a seat and rushed toward the cockpit. I could see another form up there huddled over the "stick." At the same moment I became aware of curses behind me. In the darkness I swung around. Why in hell hadn't I brought along a gun! Here were two more men behind me—four men to one—I thought!
But it so developed that these men were as bewareful, as frightened as I. While the two men up forward coaxed the plane toward the clouds, I learned that they were Col. F. H. Heaton and Rodney Brown, Esq. both being Negroes of importance in the world of science! We talked, we threatened. They told the same story I did. Like self, they were in this predeedance because of an inanimate curiosity. No good fighting it out, in the cooler, but if we safely touched the earth again—Oh, God, if we ever did!
forehead and chiselled features of an intellectual.
He thrust Mr. Heaton aside and turned toward Mr. Brown and I, hand outstretched. Practical jokes and I never did mix well. As he slapped me on the shoulder, I hurried a question at him.
"Your purpose?"
He stepped back and started wringing his hands. Suddenly he scooted over to the wall and peered into some sort of a tube. Now he swung around and came back. "My purpose? Hai You are invited to make scientific history with me."
Suddenly the tall silhouette up forward straightened up and thrust his head out of the window. When he drew back, you could hear his hoarse voice above the thundering of the engines. The man at the "stick" began moving feverishly. I got a hunch and lifted the window at my elbow. I peered out and yelled in satisfaction. Far to the north and about a thousand feet below I could see two tiny little lights, red and green. Help was coming!
But then the engine of our craft abruptly hushed to a mere whisper. The tail man slumped quickly to the floor. Almost went crashing into the table. The cabin suddenly listed a wide circle and we went tumbling down in the darkness toward the earth, three thousand feet below.
But at an altitude of perhaps fifteen hundred feet, the plane straightened out of it and headed west like a dog with a thn can tied to its tail.
IT MUST HAVE been three hours before we reached our mysterious destination. I feared that we were somewhere in California. But let me say right here that our fighting spirit didn't get a chance. Our captors were armed. As soon as the plane stopped bumping along over that apparently deserted, moonlight-swet table land, we were herded out of the cabin like three convicts. A half hour went by; thirty minutes of trudging through semi-darkness. Trees now, some alien. Trees bushes that are tall and legless. Branches that snapped under our knees. The two men behind us talkied in undertones. A few score yards this way, a few that way.
The abrupt entrance into a hidden clearing. Long and narrow. The tiny red light at the further end. The exclamations of satisfaction coming from behind us.
"Straight ahead!"
The narrow wooden steps that led downward into the ground. The stagnant odors that mote our nostrils even as we went down-dampness, motor oil, powder, gas. . . Then Mr. Heaton's first thunderous exclamation as he 'he bent low and led us through a thick square hole and into the interior.
The tiny room I followed him into was illuminated by a single small blue bulb. The room looked as if it had been hewn out of a mass of some sort of metal. Too, it looked like nothing so much as the interior of a 'broadcasting station—the numerous dials. a score or more of peculiarities, a constructed appliances which I could not then and cannot now name!
Mr. Heaton's bearing had changed immensely. "Well, ye Gods!" he was roaring. "What in the name of the devil?"
The short, pouchy, middle-aged man standing before us in shirt sleeves, rubbing his hands briskly, his teeth bared in an ugly smile, his eyes looking like two large black agates, suddenly threw back his huge head and laughed. Mr. Brown and I just stood there. Our two escorts had mysteriously venished. Mr. Heaton jumped toward our new host and the two men embraced each other after the fashion of two love-sick sweethearts! I laughed that. H. S. Turner masterly disappeared, thought to have lost his mind—Bah! Here he was—the bearing of a prime minister from Haiti, the fiery eyes of a radical, the high

“Your purpose?”
He stepped back and started wringing his hands. Suddenly he scooted over to the wall and peered into some sort of a tube. Now he swung around and came back to purpose? He: “Hat. You are invited to make an authentic history with me.” He then grinned broadly and went back to his tube!
“Sounds most interesting.” I commented. “How, may I ask?” His answer was for all of us. “My

friends," he turned and cried. "I invite you to share in the honors in what will be the first successful expedition ever made to the planet of Mars! I have selected you gentlemen because each of you have shown unusual interest in the subject; Mr. Brent, through his reck book; Mr. Heaton, through his book; and the foremost meteorologists today; my good old friend, Mr. Heaton, because he is an astronomer."
And so that was the gamel. It turned out that we were not in an ordinary room, or laboratory, but in fact the forward end of a huge cigar-shaped, thick metal tubes, the rear end of which was constructed in sections, each section containing enough explosive to lift a mountain. "Secretary," he whimily scried. "Why be so careful? I will be around and face me." "Listen, it was publicity that ruined the Layton' expedition a few years back. Thousands of the curious! If I hadn't—"
Messrs. Heaton and Brown had contracted the Turner point of view and were acting like a couple of children—inspecting gadget after gadget, peering into this tube and that. I'm not saying I wasn't doing the same. I do say that the expression on my face was different—I only it doesn't affect me like that. I'm only a writer. Give me a group of characters, a pipe, and the quiet of my study, and I too, can become enthusiastic—I can talk with them, laugh with them, curse with them, and if the plot calls for it, I can kill them. . . .
But this—this is a bit thick for me.
Still, if you can show me a Brent that ever showed "yellow," if you can point out to me a Brent that ever showed the white of his eyes—I'll eat your heart—and we have barely thirty minutes, my friends!
He made us strip to the skin.
He dabbed us all over with some sort of stuff that looked like dough muttering about "friction" a n d "heat." It wasn't long before we looked like four bears wears a glove, which a box of pills.
He turned the gadget marked "Artificial Air."
The little hole we had practically crawled through, was caulked, holted, and riveted.
He made us lie down in long iron boxes that looked like coffins. Soft and comfortable inside.
He took one last look at his favorite tube, then climbed into his own contraption and beckoned for us to close down the lid.
EVEN NOW I WANT to shiver at the thought of what happened next. The roar that came to me sounded like the crumbling of a huge city of stone. I had a sudden feeling that I was being cast into the depths of Hell! The inch-thick coat of stuff covering my skin became like hard rubber. My arms, feet, and legs felt as big as a dirigible. My head felt larger. My eyeballs felt still larger. My skin felt still larger into my ear. One of them got me by the ear and spun me round-it, seemed.
Now don't ask me how long this sort of thing went on. I don't know. It might have been a day, a week, or a month. To me it was an eternity before I even heard that first shriek. It seemed to me that that was the proper thing to do. I too screamed. Another thought smote me and I heaved again. I was in a balloon. Still yelling. I tumbled over the side onto the metal floor, positively unable to stand on my feet.
Mr. Turner, Mr. Heaton, Mr. Brown—all flattened on on the floor and crawling around. Suddenly there came the most eerie noises. Ten million monsters, seemingly Mr. Brown, crawled into the tubes, peered through it then with a shriek dropped to the floor and wiggled his way across the floor to his own iron "coffin," thrusting his hand within. Immediately the box-like room trembled violently. My cardrums rumbled like the bass strings on ten thousand cellos. We flattened out on the floor and lay prone.
Eternally after eternity. Time and
time are wiggled together in a tube
that then wiggle frantically for the
last time.

TO RESTORE LAWNS
Drought throughout the East has left many lawns dryers wondering what can be done to bring back a lawn to the verdant green color and velvet appearance which was characteristic this spring. Reasons for the present burned condition and suggestions for care at present so that the lawn will remain strength enough to survive without winter killing are offered by plant physiologists.
They explain that roots of plants always seek the level of moisture in the soil. With the light rains and the system of watering, many lawns where some sprinkling was done this summer, the moisture failed to penetrate deeply, the grass roots came to the surface for water and at present are in shallow soil, thin and in a weakened condition. Drawing of the soil, a condition produced by the alternate freezing and thawing of the ground, will tend to break these roots and kill the grass this winter. To prevent this, it is advisable to obtain as vigorous a growth before winter prevents further development. Pressures of many kinds are good. Fertilizers which stimulate quickly and are easily applied can be used at the rate of about four pounds for every 100 square feet, will into the soil after applying.
Setting up the lawn mower so that in trimming the grass will not be cut closer than the grass is best in the fall. The plant food application need not be a laborious job, as it should not take more time than it usually does to withstand the rain. Feeding of the grass not only will provide a reasonable growth to withstand winter, but there usually will be more plant food available in the spring when the grass again starts to grow.
Don't Be Afraid of Marriage
Julia Jerome
Our letter this week is from a confused young lady in the wild and windy city of Chicago:
Ms. Deer Mrs. Jerome:
I am young and in love but I am afraid to marry. I love Frank terribly much, so much that I hesitate to drag our love through the maze of masticity. It seems that no one is happily married. And yet, I cannot live without my Frank. Help me. MARTHA.
As I have often stated, unhappy marriages are aired in public, where as happy ones are not. In consequence, most of us have gotten the wrong view of the marital situation. There are many, many happy marriages. We people would good sense to these close relationships that they do to their business there would be a great many more.
A happy marriage demands a constant giving of the best that is in us. Many people want to get something for nothing in marriage, then, of course, they' fail. You should read the love letters of Harry Houdini, the famous magician, to his wife whom he still adored after thirty-two years of the "pain and drudgery" of domesticity. Some of them were published in the New York World, Sunday, August 17th. William McKinley, the martyred President of the United States, possessed a great and lasting love for his wife. Robert Browning and his wife lived an ideal marriage. Dostoevsky, the great Russian novelist, had a most happy second marriage. Antony and Cleopatra lived together for eighteen years in the closest relationship, through success and final world failure, but without ever losing their love and admiration for each other. In the world, the Taj Mahal in India, was built by a great monarch in memory of his beloved wife.
These are just a few of the great names. The world is full of lesser folk who are happily wed. So take your man to the altar, my dear, and God bless you.
Five Minute Cabbage
One and one-half milk shredded cabbage, 3 cups milk, 1 cup cream or rich milk. 21/2 tablespoons butter, 22 tablespoons flour, salt, pepper.
Cook the cabbage for 2 minutes in the 3 cups milk. Add the cup of cream to rich milk. The blended butter and flour, and the seasoning and cook rapidly for 3 or 4 minutes. The result is a crisp vegetable, delicate in flavor and color.
metal box. Time: and again the room trembled as if it was constructed of mud! One of the last things I remembered, was when Mr. Turner perused for the last time in my elbows and motioned us wildly back to our boxes.
The word "eternity" doesn't seem to fill the bill. Certainly it doesn't do justice to that. Indeterminable lapse of time before the final crash. It was at an angle and ripped. A thing that defies description by man-made words. It did seem ages after that before the lid of my box opened and Mr. Turner, crazy from excitement, his eyes ablaze, whispered that we had made it, that yes, sir, we had landed somewhere on the planet of Mars—anook! I pulled myself up and looked, became rigid, as if petrified!
Listen—the next time we get together Tell me what saw.

Remove the force of gravity and you have a strange world. As, for example, the moon.
A man on the moon can throw a stone, or shoot at guns, and strike himself in the back, the missile going all the way.
Scientists have figured out some strange results that might be obtained if the gravitational pull was lessened. On the lunar planet of the earth this strange force is about one-sixth of that on the earth, in fact say the astronomers it is too weak even to hold an atmosphere to its surface.
Such, in fact, is the diminished force of gravity on the moon that 75 millimeter guns, which have a range of from 5 to 8 miles on the earth, would shoot from 230 to 280 miles if there. The moon's gravity is so strong that the gasses shine up in them, and even volatilize some of the material. This would produce an explosion.
Thus, looking at the moon, it can be believed that the large craters that the telescope shows, are largely one way or another, the result of the lessened force of gravity. Our earth encounters numerous meteors in the flight through space. Most of these bounds elastically, ejecting a quantity of material.
If a meteor travelling at such speeds were suddenly stopped at such collides there would be great heat that would melt the rocks in the air, free the gasses shine up in them, and even volatilize some of the material. This would produce an explosion.
Thus, looking at the moon, it can be believed that the large craters that the telescope shows, are largely one way or another, the result of the lessened force of gravity. Our earth encounters numerous meteors in the flight through space. Most of these bounds elastically, ejecting a quantity of material.
Dr. F. E. Wright of the Geophysical Laboratory of Washington has figured out that the flight of a projectile fired on the moon at zero elevation, or perfectly level with its surface, would travel right around and hit the gunner in the back.
If a shell fired at a muzzle velocity of 5,255 feet a second, it would skim around fast and furious and the gunner would have to get out of the way of his own bullet. The Big Bertha had a muzzle velocity of 5,250 feet a second, or 1600 meters only 25 feet less than the initial velocity required to encircle the moon. If the speed was increased to 7,785 feet a second, the projectile, on the other hand would send the shell out of the way and return to the side of the range of gravitational control of the moon.
Moon's Craters the Result of Lack of Gravity
It is this lack of gravational pull that has produced the craters that we see on the moon. Dr. Wright believes. Without gravity there is no atmosphere.
For example, the materials hurried in volcanic action comparable to those on the earth, instead of falling back into the crater as with us, are flung far out. This is what gives the clearly-chiselled appearance of the moon's volcanoes.
Some astronomers believe that the appearance of volcanoes are caused not by great inner fire, but by the impact of the Moon's crust to some distance, producing intense compression, which re-

If a meteor travelling at such speed
were suddenly stopped as in collision,
there would be great heat that would melt the meteor and the rocks at about, free the gasses shut up within them, and even volatilize some of the material. This would produce an explosion.
Thus, looking at the moon, it can be believed that the large craters on the telescope shows, are large, one way or another, the result of the lessened force of gravity. Our each encounters numerous meteors in flight through space. Most of these heavenly bodies are burned up and consumed as they are pulled upwards and have but little effect upon the surface when they finally reach it.
However, if the earth were like the moon, lacking an atmosphere, these meteors would come with terrific force, strike the surface and throw up great quantities of soil. It would be very similar to the effect produced by dropping a large stone into this mud, which leaves a hole and pushes up in a ridge the mud all about the edges.
Thus after all, our moon may never have had any lively volcanoes on its surface. It probably isn't a dead sphere at all. It has only one lack of gravity. With this essential and powerful gravity, this would have an atmosphere and probably be a delightful place upon which to live.

REGISTRATION BATTLE GROUND BOTH PARTIES
Republicans and Democrats Lining Up for Biggest Effort.
NEGRO IS FACTOR
Men and Issues Important, Candidates Say.
(Reprint from last week's City Edition)
With registration the main battle front this week political leaders, even including workers for the Socialist party, are lined up to put the largest number of voters on the books ever registered in Baltimore, if their plans carry.
Both the Republican and Democratic parties have marshalled their forces for the first day's registration on October 9. At a meeting of Republican leaders and candidates held at headquarters Thursday afternoon, this phase of the fight was given major consideration.
Candidates Busy
Candidates, however, are letting no grass grow under their feet. In the Fourth District, where Republican leaders have what they call a one hundred per cent perfect ticket, comprising three Negro and three white candidates for the House of Delegates, and a generally acceptable candidate for the Senate, leaders declare that they expect to win Linv Kogan, Kogan, James A. White, and H. Diemenpour. Negro candidates on the ticket for the House of Delegates, reported this week that indications point to their election. They have no fear, they say, that they will not receive the full R. publican vote in the district, a harring which kept two Negro candidates from winning four years ago.
Both Councilman Walter S. Emerson and Warner T. McGuinn predict a perfect harmony campaign with every leader playing fair.
Calloway Busy
Marse S. Calloway, regarded as an effective and practical politician, is busy lining up forces behind the Republican candidates. The main thing this year, Calloway says, is to support the campaign a tryout at the state capital. That some of the ministers are taking a lively hand in the fight is evidenced by the number of meetings scheduled at various churches

One of the biggest of these meetings was held last week at Ebenezer A.M.E. Church, where a musical festival was interspersed with speeches by Mayor Broening, Linwood Koger, John Phillip Hill and where such leaders as Edward Hargest sat on the platform The Rev. R. H. G. Harper on Ebenezer. Barry Sandford.
Berman Confident
In a talk at the N.A.A.C.P. meeting at Trinity Baptist Church, Paul Berman outlined objectives affecting Negro citizens which he said he would advocate when sent to the Senate. Among these were the party platform pledges of establishing a school for the feeble-minded, and proper development at Cheltenham and Melvale.
On the question of education in the state, he told a reporter that he was unqualifiedly in favor of equalization of educational opportunity both in school facilities and salaries for teachers.
In the attention to the slap his opponent, Milton Alfelf made at Negro candidates during the last campaign, and stated that there would be no segregation in his program. He predicted that the Negro would be on the Republican tickets win.

SEEK WOMEN WHO KIDNAPPED BABY OF YOUNG GIRL
14- Year-Old Mother Taken for Ride in Taxi; Pair Vanish.
FATHER FOUND
AFRO Asked to Aid Search; Police Fail. (Reprint from last week's City Edition)
Two weeks have passed and still no clues can be found that will lead to the recovery of the two-month-old baby who was stolen from its child mother, Dorothy Dixon, age 14, by two unidentified women on the night of September 17.
According to the story told to the AFRO by little Dorothy and her aunt Mrs. Alice Ford, 567 Treasman Street, the child was walking with her baby on Pennsylvania Avenue on the night of the kidnapping when two women stopped her and started a conversation.
They followed her to her aunt's home upon pretext of looking for a room. They there paid a deposit no the room without even going up stairs to look at it and then called a taxi in order to return to their homes and take their clothes.
Insisted upon the girl accompanying them and taking her baby, which she did.
Stopping the cab in front of a drug store at the corner of Pennsylvania Avenue and Biddle Street, one of the women gave Dorothy a quarter and sent her in the pharmacy to get a toothbrush while she held the baby. When the girl returned the cab and its occupants had disappeared and she has not seen or heard of her baby since.
Father Porto Rican
First suspicion was directed toward the father of the child, but this theory was dropped when the man whose name is John Madine, a Porto Rican, was located working in a pool room on Pennsylvania Avenue, and not only denied all knowledge of the affair, but offered to aid in the search. These have been unable to locate the child, and according to the aunt have been unconcerned and negligent in their duty. On one occasion when she went to inquire at the progress of the search at the Northwestern station, a sergeant, who was busy playing checkers, drove her from the station house. Mrs. Ford declared. The child was a love baby born to

COUNT LOVES
... Continued from Page One.
No Reason for Excitement
"I see no reason why anybody should get excited because a man falls in love with a woman, even though he happens to be a count, and she is not his class, so to speak. For years, European noblemen have been marrying girls whether they fell in love with them or not, and they have been the believers, their American families paid large sums to gain these titles for their daughters. The American girl with whom this particular count fell in love doesn't care a rap for a title and neither does her mother. The count is well aware of that fact.
"I am very sorry for the count. He is a fine gentleman, however, and he is not a pauper and owns his own home near Paris. However, if I had known the count intended to come to America, I would have urged him to wait until he could have made him a pauper and more befitting his noble descent."
Baron Sought to Marry Mrs. Terrell
Baron Sought to Marry Mrs. Terrell "This incident of the hand of Phyllis being sought in marriage, however is simply as easy, blinding itself. After I graduated from Oberlin. I studied three years in Europe. I might easily have married a title, but I was never tempted even a little bit. I might easily have written my father, but he baron wrote my father asking my in marriage, even though I told him it could never be. I wanted to use whatever talent I possessed and the excellent training I had enjoyed to promote the welfare of my race, and I would have conceived the cision I made when a young woman, many years ago.
Won't Answer More
Asked if she would use her position, she counted the counts in the entry, Mrs. Terrell said, "I refuse to be interviewed upon that." In Paris, the count was employed by the American embassy, who have cherished the hope that in coming to America he could manufacture hair preparations, whether for white or black customers, has not been explained.

Mayberry not only fooled the white John Hopkins snobs who gloat over their ability to tell white people colored but he did learn from FKPO reporters who did not learn from the team until he left that Mayberry is colored.
During the course of the game he thrilled the spectators with a 50-yard run and many other spectacle feats. He spent Friday at the Knights of Columbus Club, from which Qualio was based and the en-
gagement team was held at the restaurant where his darker team mate was Jim Crow. He regarded the entire situation as a lark.
Shortly after the men had been seated, the coach, George Palmgram, white, of Massachusetts, informed Quallo that the management refused taking room but would serve him in a rear room which is used as a pantry. Other members of the squad made objections and voiced their opinions to coach. The coach, by action, the squad accepted the action of the restaurant manager.
Segregated Also
Prior to their leaving the restaurant the coach at Quallo's request called the Knights of Columbus Club where the team had arranged for lodging and asked whether or not they would receive a colored player by the team. The clerk at Quallo refused the request and question direct but suggested that the dark-skinned player be taken to Smith's Hotel on Drudl Hill Avenue to avoid embarrassment. This was done. AFRO-AMERICAN reporters learning of the affair, sought Quallo at Johns Hopkins home field at Homewood. They were informed that Quallo was not with his teammates but could be found at the Drudl Hill Club. On the side of his cot, the right halfback of the team related his experience to reporters.
Against the Law
Quallo, who is a junior at the college, but playing his first year in college football, stated that he arrived here about seven o'clock, Friday afternoon. The team was directed to the Hall Mall. After being seated and the service prepared, he was informed by the coach that the management refused to serve him in the main dining room as there was a law against serving Negroes in public places with white patrons. Not knowing just what to do he deprived the team and went to the war room where he was served by a white waitress. "I was completely non-plussed by the treatment I received," Quallo declared, "and had not been so thoroughly surprised that I did not realize the full extent of the humiliation that was being subjected. I would have refused to be served in such a manner.
"I was dreadfully hungry, however, and being a stranger in a Southern town for the first time I thought that I would probably be accorded the same treatment everywhere, so I decided to make the best of it. I went to the next occurrence, Quallo stated: "Shortly before we left the restaurant, I asked the coach to call up the Knights of Columbus Club, where we were to stay and find out whether or not they would receive me. "He informed me after the telephone conversation with the clerk, that it would be better for me to go to Smiths Hotel to stay the two nights there. I was prepared for that, more or less.
"But the second real shock came when one of the coaches of the Johns Hopkins University team informed my coach that he thought it best for me to be kept out of the game, in fact he suggested that he be proactive, for diving the suit, that it was not the custom for Negro athletes to play against whites in this section of the country and that it might cause some hard feeling among the patrons. All this occurred early Saturday morning after we had completed our final practice for the game, which was held Saturday night. When I was told not to appear in the game, I was told that it did I not care to witness the game as a spectator and refused to attend."
Coach Talks
Interviewed at the Homewood Bowl, Saturday night, directly after the night game, Coach Palmgran told an AFRO-AMERICAN reporter that he did not know of conditions here or he would not have taken the players into the restaurant. He declared that he objected to the manager's action but had no alternative as all arrangements had been set. Hopefully, the university officials for the meals and lodging. And to prevent any disorder from his players he requested Quallo to eat in the back room of the place. He refused to disclose the entire conversation with the clerk at the Knights of Columbus Club, but admitted that Smith's Hotel had been suggested. In his statement the coach indicated that the conditions and unaware of the conditions existing here. After we had entered the restaurant, I was informed by the manager that Quallo would not be served in the main ding room. I requested him to lay aside his prejudice and allow the boy to ect. with the rest of us, but he told me there was a law prohibiting it. By that time several of the players realized that Quallo had been taken to the side room and started to eat there, then that I requested them not to be disorderly for the sake of the school and Quallo himself.
"At the Homewood field I sought to prevent further embarrassment and advised him to stay out of the game.
"Quallo is one of my best half-backs and I had expected much from him in this game. He is good at running, passing and kicking. This affair had a detrimental effect on the team as they did not play on the field. They could have under different circumstances. We lost by a score of 36-8."
Quallo who is a graduate of the West Orange (N. J.) High School is five feet, nine inches tall and weighs 152 pounds. His name appeared on the official program of the Johns Hookins University as a substitute half back.

TWO READING ROOMS
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The new $400,000 Fisk Library, which semi-officially opened its doors to faculty and students last Friday, will be formally dedicated Thursday afternoon November 20, when a week of educational and library conferences on the campus will reach its highest point of activity.
The Negro Library Conference is scheduled to extend from November 20 to 23.

In January ground was broken, and work has been carried on day and night in the preparation of a feature in time for the opening of school.
Murals by Aaron Douglas
Today, it stands nearly complete, a mighty collegiate gothic structure with a tower that rises 100 feet. The interior is planned for beauty as well. The room has an impressive lobby, a public library branch, library science classrooms and men's and women's locker rooms. There are reading rooms with the pageant of Negro history told in the famous murals of Aaron Douglas. There is a seating capacity for 242 residents. The room has the solid oak tables and magnificent chandeliers add a majesty to the scholarly atmosphere. The rooms are separated by a public catalog lobby containing a large capacity of 1,000,000 catalog cards. Four murals that challenge description represent philosophy, science, drama and drama. The library and drama lounge are a double tier of stacks are also included on this floor.
Special Rooms
The third floor contains all of the special rooms. There is one for the Negro Collection which is rapidly becoming a library of source material for the special room is equipped to care for magazines and newspapers. The Browsing Room facing Memorial Chapel is expected to make history. Here, the idea of a students recreational reading room has been worked out and furnished settees and windors chairs floor lamps curtains and a good, popular collection of books. Here, it is hoped that on wintry nights students will cluster around the log fire to read for pleasure. Voluntary reading among students has grown it is fairly safe to say that the library is used more at Fisk than at almost any other college of the same size.

The Morgan-St. Paul Football Game, the Big Noise of the Week; Brought Many Visitors. Mystery Dinner to Professor Chas. S. Morris at Roanoke. Teachers Attend Philly Conference. Provident Gets a Lift, Another Coming.
Dear Pansy:
I do wish you could have been ovver for the Morgan-St. Paul football game Saturday. It really marked the opening of the sport season, so far as the feminine end of Baltimore is concerned. Somehow our maids and matrons don't work up a full quote of excitement over anything in the ball line but foot and basket. Besides the most exciting of games in which Morgan's colors were flying shy high, the spectator lines carried just about every one you were looking to see.
I saw Edith McMechen, Mrs. Edward Wilson and Mrs. Chanler Wynn doing their levelest as rooters. Delia Waller, Dot Mitchell from New York, Agnes Watson and Elsie Bevans were bunched together. In the crowd also was Annie Brown and Irma Kellum. Georgia McMechen was there and Elsie Tighman, Evelyn Johnson, Thelma Langley, Susie Hearns, Ray Porter, Doris Dancey, Mary West, Mildred Lynch, Mildred O. Brown and Edith Laws.
And oodles of males, including Gough McDaniels, Dr. Charles Woodland, Jack Smith, Al Burrell, Steven Moore, Charles Alston and Raven Parker just to mention a few.
Milton Curtis Calloway from Birmingham was seen at the St. Paul team. The St. Paul team lines carried an interesting group I met Mr. Whitechadd, L. J., I think he is a faculty member. Mr. St. Paul team, and H. Patterson who is also a faculty member. Mr. St. Paul team, and H. Patterson, together with J. A. Thornton, H. M. Hill, Norris Sanford, Dorothy McKenzie, and Emily Phillip, Mrs. Mattie Manson and Ruby Seward were in the party who came over to cheer their team. The new 18-role courses on Saturday morning and in the evening enjoyed guest lectures of the Morgan collegiate as a social from seven to nine.
Gerald Allen is in Atlantic City this week confabbing with other recreationists at the National Recreation Conference.
Mrs. J. C. Smith, who was formerly Miss Lela Waller—the youngest girl to the football game, Saturday. She was the guest of her sister, Mrs. Harlan, who is head nurse of the Burial Home, visitor in the city is Eibel Kingham, who is head nurse of the Burial Home, visitor in the city is Eibel Kingham, who thinks Baltimore is quite, on very conservative, to say the least, will spend the rest of the day at the guest of Mrs. Ashaw Hawkins.
And now we hear that Dr. Carroll St. Clair will locate in Cambridge, Md. Just when we thought we were going to keep him and the lovely Catherine.
Speculation is rife in Roanoke. Vaccicles concerning the formal dinner at which Olivia Clarke will be hostess; and Charles Satchell Morris, Jr., honoree, Friday evening. Mr. Morris is professor of liberal arts at Virginia Seminary and College at the burial day of how and it generally known that his interest in the beautiful Miss Clarke has extended over two or three years. I hear that seventy-five or more of that section of Virginia's most prominent citizens have been asked to attend the dinner and receptic to follow. Wise acres there professes something of the same manner in which the affair is to be held. According to reports down Roanoke way, Mr. Morris has made frequent trips to the "Fagic City" lately and has declined all invitations to deliver public addresses. Now this procedure on his part is rather strange to stay the week, and the other minimum is a romance are general and widespread. At any rate, Roanoke is scratching its head and society will turn out in mass with yes agog to learn what's what on Friday evening.
Among the distinguished visitors who graced the city Sunday were Lula Lule, and Children, Roy W. Tibbs and Mr. D. D. & the all of the Howard University music department, and Dr. John Mitchell of Freedmen's Hospital. They were the guests of Dr. and Mrs. Edward Wheatley.
Herbert Frisby forsook his very seriously-taken occupation of breakout radio to Philly last week-end. While he says that he intended that the show be a national, he just couldn't get away from pedagogic pursuits, for he admits spending the most of his time at the University, where he certainly talks more of the wonderful discussions and addresses he heard than of the Quaker City's high spots.
Quite a few of the Baltimore teachers who attended the show and those that I have heard were in tendance were Meta Redden. He taught at Mrs. G. Summer White and Mr. and Mrs. Mason Hawkins, John Cotton, Clarence Roberts, C. L. Davis, W. C. Walker, Dean Haywood of, Baltimore College.
and the former Baltimorean, Dr Thomas I. Brown.
Speaking of pedagogues, have you ever seen as many happy countenances as you have in this group this week? No deep dark mystery. Just another simple affair of cause and effect in the department ghost walked Tuesday.

And as to benefits, the Grigilza are selling us tickets for their bridge party at the Pemberton on Saturday evening. But what do we write? What are a mere few cents to be compared with an evening of good food when it is all in the name of sweet charity? This affair, too, will benefit Provident Hospital, you know. It was in the city, Saturday. Of course he attended the football game. And following his usual pursuit of detecting he seemed to be put under a good job in finding where the most interesting persons and places were being hidden. Till next week.

DIGITS RACKET
Continued from Page 1
machine, visible from the street, was operated by a young woman, who summed up the digits, oblivious to all the pell mell rush.
Watch Dogs Watch
Men and women run back and forth behind a partition which is said to be where the collections are carried. Anyone approaching the door of the partition is scrutinized by three or four men standing around apparently idle. These are the watch dogs.
Their duty is to prevent hijacking or to frustrate robberies, not to watch for cops. They walk around nonchalantly with one hand or both into trousers pockets which have bulges that depose they are armed.
Plck-up Men Use Cars
Ford and Chevrolet cars for the pick-up men occupy all available spaces to have specially constructed motors and to be capable of great speed. The bright, light, one person stated that sandwiches them to make them hold the road. Bullet and shatter proof glass pro-tects parts from holdup and bleed.
Pretty Girls Used
Pretty women are being used by the racketeers to sit in store front windows. The plan is very popular and there is always a crowd of men around trying to get in a number or attempting to make a mash. They get-takers as the men, and no matter what type store one enters, the first query is "Numbers?" All other business stands still in the store, and one seems to appreciate your trade if you do not want to make a play. Floor Filled with Adding Machines The game is universal here, and the only fear of the writers and pickup men is from possible robbery. One place in the 1300 block of Wylie was said to have the second floor filled with adding machines operated by young women and men. Two female joiners, together hold the calculations. Newstand Front, Gaming Rear One of the most motorious gambling dens in the city is located at Wylie and Townd Street. To outfit the place, it is just an ordinary newstand.
Traveling to the rear of the store, one sees a man who sits at a table and a woman who modifies the players. Near the rear of the store one finds a stairway leading into a basement. Descends one once over and searches you well for weapons. A pocket knife about two inches long was removed from one
Two Dice Tables
Inside, there are two dice tables and three skin game tables, with men standing around them in this the time. But even in this atmosphere, the "numbers" hold their own with the other forms of vice. Writers walk through the room, and the winner is some winner at dice or cards may play as much as four or five dollars. Another, who has lost may not be able to do more than his last level or dip.
Cops Stroll In. Stroll Out
As the writer mounted the stairs of the joint and around a group of swearing gambblers two minions of the law, one with a cigarette dispenser and one with a knife, restedlessly around the store. After looking around they turned and strolled out of the place. The numbers writers wrote on the walls with his book continued writing the plays and did not so much as glance twice at the officers.
Districts Set Up
The organizations of Harris and Greenlee are the most popular ones, and as a result the ire of several members there. It is common talk that they have been forced to operate in only one section of the city, the Third Ward. The white backers of the Cochise County Election back the back of the city. Politicians, faced with a post-campaign debt estimated at around $80,000, are said to see in the numbers a chance to pay the amount the pockets of the gullible persons.
THEY ALWAYS PAY
With writers of Harris and Greenlee in all sections of the city, the two colored backers have the reputation of having never failed to pay. Writers are arrested spasmodically, but the general offense is that the man was wrong. Writers of other organizations are bootlegging for Harris and Greenlee. They make collections in their district, but it is said they are in the place of headquarters in the Willey county headquarters. Caution has to be used, as several men caught in the wrong district have been given severe drubbings. More than one killing can be laid directly to them.
forced to be forced to 10 odds on the bingo numbers 800 to 1 odds on all numbers except doubles and triples. Until recently Harris and Greenlee were paying amount $100000. Their population disturbed political backers and they were forced to cut the prevailing odds to the lower figure on numbers 800 to 1 odds on the same digit then once.
Bill Snyder
There is another independent backer operating just off Wylie Avenue, 76 Fullerton Street. The backer is reputed to operate this place, which it is difficult to辨认 a stranger. A bell in a door situated along side of the store front with scores of card, tips, is used by runners and writers to ascend upper floors where the customary adding machines and hordes of found.
Pittsburgh Leads
Pittsburgh has gone a step further in the racket than other Eastern cities by the introduction of the "night numbers." At 8 o'clock the clearing house in the writers' congregate at their stations and hand in their sucker money. That business is soon cleared away by the bookstore adding machine operators. At host of lessees the hats are generally widely shortly after noon. Night Numbers At 8 o'clock at night, the "night numbers" conducted with dice instead of clearing figures make their appearance. Between the two coffers of money flows into the coffers of the syndicates. The player places his bets in the night game similar to that of the day. The winning number is determined by three dice rolled out on a table
Every station conducts its "numbers" department just as openly as a meat market or grocery store is conducted. Nothing private, noth-
How Agents are Paid
The pay of the agents compares favorably with that of other occupations and surpasses that of many. The average runner or pickup man gets from $33 to $50 and may make his rounds at his disposal make his rounds of the sub-
The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, October 11, 1930
stations. The inside men like the bookkeepers get from $4 to $60 per week. The station operators get paid on percentage. The attractive women who sit in the store fronts are reported to receive in some instances a flat salary of $25 or $30 weekly; others work on commission. Aside from demoralizing business in the Wylie Avenue district because it is winked at by the law, the station's innovation of another racket and an increase in the printing business.
Card and Book Tips
At least thirty different cards and books claiming to give tips on the dressing, hairstyling, and front windows of nearly every store. Hundreds of persons with no idea of what the winners will be are being made rich by this book. The cards and books cost from 10 cents like "Tips," up to $1.25 like "Numbers Strategy." As many as and five thousand copies of one particular kind are often sold in a day. This writer in two days picked up or purchased nine cards, three envelopes, and five tips which sold from 10 cents each to $1.50. Printing offices say they have turned out as high as 27,000 copies of the strategy sells for one dollar; 31,000 copies were sent here from New York and 10,000 to Washington. A reporter about a sucker being born every minute may be cleansed from the few following figures. In several instances some of these orders had to be duplicated the next day because of a sell
Four thousand copies of one card called "Tips" were printed by one card company called "Trips"; the "Clearing House," 5,000 The headquarters on Wylie Avenue in Dallas, Texas, houses books at one time, and duplicate the order when the supply is fast used
Who Barons Are
Very little could be learned of the private life of Pittsburgh's numbers that each possesses a fleet of cars used in the racket and high powered. Livered autos for their personal use are not used for cars to be used. Although living in an exclusive section and with ample funds, the men and their families said not to be society members. Both men said to be interested in real estate.
"Woogy"
"Woozy," his friends say, besides the country home with wide spaced lawns, luxurious rooms, gymnasium and auditorium, and trust fund for his wife and child and another trust fund for the education of his child. Everybody here says "Woozy" is the fairest and squatter in the town for mayor tomorrow and would be elected if Wylie Avenue had votes enough. When clients complain that runners won't pay off, "Woozy" checks up and pays on the property up to $1,000 bels on the turn of a card or the flip of a coin. Four Greenlee Homes "Woozy" Harris is listed in the telephone hook as a barber at 405 Wylie Avenue. The name of the Mrs. Helen Greenlee, Frankstown Road. Four places are listed under the Greenlee name, vl: 1323 Wylie, B1. Fullerton, 1213 Wylie, and the response place at Wylie Avenue. The name of these sales is said to be worth $27,000. Gus remodeled it.
Snyder, a third Smoky city baron, is the famous smoker. He has wired a $6,000 stove and not thought much about it. Pittsburgh was alarmed recently when "Sny" was held up and robbed of $3,00 as he always carries a wad. Arrested two years ago for playing the numbers, "Sny" appeared in court for $7,000 in his boson to his bail ball.
Its Law Lends Believe it or Not
A story is told of a West Indian who came to Pittsburgh during the early days of the numbers craze and banked $1,000 a week through the simple method of getting the number from New York or utes past New York and then betting on the day's number before it was plessed in Pittsburgh.
Another of his schemes was to secure from a New York expert accountant the first several hours in advance. If informed for example that the first two fixtures were 59, the West Indian put $5 each, 591, 592, 593, 594, 595, 597, 597 and 598. In this manner he pulled down $600 for several days straight.

THE COUNTRY REPORTER
THE COUNTRY REPORTER
Most pastors are on the receiving end of receptions, banquets, testimonials and the like and their congregations come in, then to them to mention them more fervently in his prayers.
Not so with the Rev. John F. Monroe. A.B. pastor of St. Paul M.E. Church, Oxen Hill, Md., who gave a reception and Tuesday night at the parsonage in appreciation of the two months' vacation which they had given him this summer. Twenty-two guests were served a threecourse dinner.
According to a correspondent in Jamaica, NY, the watchword of that city is "Th. Negro must build the ladder by which he is to climb. He must become a producer and not look to the other races for that which he can produce."
Major Chambers, the owner of Ferry Farm on the Tidewater Trail and the Rappahannock River about eight miles from Fredericksburg, Va., raised four hundred barrels of corn on about 50 acres in spite of the drought. Members is the only Negro who owns a river farm in this section of Virginia.
The eyes of a big audience of students and faculty members at A. and T. College, Greensboro, N.C., were opened wide with wonder when Max O. Cullen, lamb demonstration specialist of the National Livestock and Meat Board, did wonders with his knife in carving the carcass of a lamb into desirable cuts recently.
As he went from one creation to another in cutting and forming the meat, the wonder grew until it climaxed with his transformation of a shoulder into a life-like resemblance of a duck.
Mr. Cullen accompanied his demonstration with a talk in which he pleaded for a more general use of lamb meat, particularly the less popular portions. The lack of a steady demand for the middle sections and parts of the fore quarter, is what causes the price of the desired quarters to be so high.
He demonstrated that an attractive cut of meat can be secured from any part of the animal.
Mr. Murriel, the postmaster at Watoga, Va., has just dug and put into his cellar 40 bushels of white potatoes in spite of the drouth.
William Green, 21, Wilbert Gardiner, 16, and Leonard Madden, 21, took part in a contest in measuring wheat at New Chapel Md. recently. They were asked to measure sixty bushels of wheat averaging ten bushels per minute. Our correspondent told me to mention whether or not any of the contestants had an edge on the other two, so we'll call it a draw.
As the first Tuesday in November draws near, echoes and sentiments from the various political groups throughout the states, drift into our desks. The small state of New Jersey seems quite active politically. From Asbury Park comes this statement: The people of Connecticut compete against the taints of the G.O.P. and there will be a change in many of the voting districts if the so-called candidates don't stop their hoodwinking the masses with so many facts. Don't listen, but watch them and remember them at the ballot box."
In the primary election in Georgetown, Del., a rumor that the Democratic party tried to stop the Negro vote was used all Negroes to vote Republican.
From Bridgeport, Conn., comes the report of a women's political organization, known as the Negro Women's Republican Club. Officers are Mrs. Gertrude Johnson, president. Mrs. Sarah B. Ross, vice president. Mrs.

FORMER TRINITY
PASTOR SEEKS
DIVORCE
The Rev. Luke G. Reynolds Says Wife was Unfaithful.
DESERTED HIM
Mate Resides in N.Y.; He Keeps Children.
(Raprint from last week's City Edition)
Church and society circles received a severe shock when it was learned that the Rev. Luke G. Reynolds, 2020 Druid Hill Avenue, had instituted proceedings for an absolute divorce on grounds of misconduct against his wife, Mrs. Willie Mae Reynolds, in the circuit court, Thursday.
In the bill of complaint filed through the law offices of George W. Evans, attorney, it was stated that the couple were married March 11, 1908. They resided together until November 30, 1929, when the wife abandoned her home.
The bill filed by the minister further declares and charges that since their marriage, Mrs. Reynolds has misconducted herself with various men whose names will be disclosed on the day of trial. The offenses of misbehavior have not been condoned by the husband since his discovery of them, nor has he lived or co-habited with his wife since.
Asks Custody of Children
Records accompanying the bill of complaint show that there are three children born as a result of the marriage. They are Mrs. Alma Brown, married; Vivian, age 10, deceased; the father seeks the legal custody of the latter two who are now residing with him.
A petition and order of publication were issued against the wife, who is reported to be living in New York, commanding her to appear in person or a divorce show cause why a divorce should not be passed.
Resigned Pastorate
The plaintiff was formerly pastor position which he resigned more than a year ago to enter the field of business. He still is active in the ministers' conference of the denomination and preaches at various churches.

BANK CASHIER WAS "NUMBERS" PAY MAN
Empire Savings and Loan Bank Official Accused of $4,500 Embezzlement.
THREE INVOLVED
Reuben Block and Luther White also Held.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, (ANP.) — Following an alleged admission that he was the "pay off man" in a "numbers" racket, and that he embelzied $4,500 of the funds of the Empire Savings and Loan Bank, James Wilbur Strode, 25, cashier, was arrested here this week.
Strode, who was regarded as a youthful financial wizard, used the money in financing a "numbers" racket for Reuben Black and Luther White, well-known officers of the Credenham Bond and Mortgage Company of the State where he also held on warrants charging embezzlement, sworn out by the prosecuting attorney.
Tranned by Audit
To J. W. Wills, Sr., president of the bank, and well-known pioneer Cleveland undertaker, goes the credit it for the apprehension of the swindle. Mr. Wills became president of the bank, upon the sudden death of its founder, H. S. Chauney, last July.
Upon familiarizing himself with the bank's affairs, he is said to have become suspicious of the system of Strode on a vacation, and Strode on a vacation, he had a firm of public auditors, Alexander, Cochrane; and Huffman, audit the bank's accounts.
When it was discovered that the shortest exceeded $4,000, Mr. Wills sent for Strode, who came to the bank Monday and was taken by Sgt. Emil Smithe and Lieut. Zeman, detectives, to the Central police station for questioning and investigation by Sgt. Joseph Sweney the officer who conducted of investigation and identification.
Deficit Covered
The auditors have not completed their audit - but it is thought that the total will probably reach $4500. The auditors will be responsible for the directors of the bank to the effect that the total deficit is well covered by a bond and that the affair does not in any way affect the status of the bank. The bank has deposits of $300,000 and $275,000 invested in him. In his statement, Strode is said to have admitted that he received $25 per week from Black for "paying off" with the bank's funds, "hits" on a numbers racket. White and other auditors are accusing, according to the statement Strode is said, to have made.
White and Black Held
Miss Frances Echois, 2254 E. 89th Street, secretary to Luith White and Reuben Black, at the office of the Credential Bond and Mortgage Company, 2321 E. 55th Street, advised the Associated Nero Press Corporation out of the city, she thought, in Chicago, and would be away all week, but upon investigation, the writer was informed at the Detective Bureau that White held on B charge $2,200 and $1,400 with Sirote, on warrants sworn out by the prosecuting attorney.

WHITE HUSBAND
SLAYS MATE WHO
LEFT HIS HOME
(Reprint from last week's City Edition)
Keeping an all-night vigil on the house in which he had found his wife, Mrs. Mabel Merrick, in bed with another man earlier in the day, Frank Merrick, white, 29, 316 N. Pine Street, fatally shot her shortly after she had left the house, Friday night.
Mrs. Merrick was shot in the breast twice by her husband as she was walking on Sarah Ann Street near Pine. She was taken to the University Hospital where she died shortly after making a dramatic utterance accusing her husband of her injuries.
Found Her in Bed
On investigation it was learned that Merrick went to 630 W. Mulberry Street about seven a.m. Friday morning and found his wife, who had been missing from home for two days, in bed with James Barnes, a boarder at the house. After begging her to return to their home, she refused to do until Merrick had promised forgiveness for her act, the angered husband left the house. He then went to his home where he secured his revolver. He returned to Mulberry Street, waiting across the street for his wife to leave the house for twelve hours. About seven p.m. the unfaithful wife was seen to leave the place. Merrick accosted her and they walked west on Mulberry Street and returned to her home. Refusing to return home after her husband pleased with her the second time, Merrick shot his wife twice.
At the coroner's inquest at the Western police station, Thursday, Merrick was held for the action of the grand jury without ball on charges of first degree murder, States Attorney John Sherman declared that most likely the state was guilty of first degree murder inasmuch as the killing was committed with malice and forethought.

the "Breaks" in Life
"The Breaks in Life" is the subject of discussion by Dr. Ralph W. Sockman during the National Sunday Forum to be broadcast over WEAF, Sunday, October 15, 2014. A book of his address, Dr. Sockman states that "We may expect an increased religious interest as a result of the business depressing and the disasters such as the drought and hurricane which men have been suffering. It might seem that when life moves along so men in a beneficent God would be strongest. But not so. It is the eras of hardship and discomfort which turn men's thoughts to despair.

Nicaraguan Tells of Struggles in Central America.
The blame for uphevals in churches and fights between the membership and pastors was shifted from the pulpit to the pew and back again by speakers at the weekly meeting of the Episcopal Bishops' Ministerial Conference, at the Enoon Baptist Church, Monday.
The fault was taken from the shoulders of the pastors by the Rev. Matthew Wilkerson, pastor of the Mount Ararat Baptist Church, who declared that a minister found it impossible to run his church. He was accused of the ordinary boards now found in most of the churches.
The Rev. S. H. James, pastor of the Leadenhall Baptist Church, declared that the cause lay in the fact that the pastors, the churchers that was held by pastors of a generation ago. "The churches," said the Rev. Mr. James, "are not reaching the communities where they are getting out of the church. They are asking, What is the use of an organization that only pays a pastor's salary and runs a church, but does nothing to help the people of the church."

By BERNICE DUTRIEUILLE
PHILADELPHIA—T he man who marries baby-faced Ida Blake, a maid at 720 Kenilworth Avenue, Oak Lane, will get a girl he can trust to take care of herself when fresh men are around even if they be drunk.
Ida looks demure, but her right arm pecks a wallop that would do credit to Kid Chocolate.
It all happened on the Philadelphia Express from New York shortly after it had left Wilmington. With her was Miss Myrtle Stanley, 1725 W. Columbia Avenue.
Suddenly the stillness of the passenger car was hit down by a mans preemptory hit down" followed up with your get up Ill cram my foot down, your throat."
There at the rear of the car a drunken and red faced ofay stood, loudly declaiming to two girls in the very last seat: "Tm from Maryland, and I will make you damned niggers know that you are in Delaware." With that one girl deliberately stood up and faced him. One more vicious: "Sit down—or—I'll." He didn't finish. He had drawn back to strike when the young woman right struck a blow that but for the back of the seat, which the man involuntarily grabbed, would have sent him sprawling to the middle of the road before passengers separated them. Then the drunk, trying to break from his captors, slobbered, and Mount Zion M.E. Church, Twenty-ninth Street between Domburg and the fourth street last Sunday morning in his series on Job. His subject was "Job's Despair." Holy communion observed at both morning and evening.
ISRAEL, C.M.E.
The Rev. E. P. Howard preached at Israel Memorial M.O.C. Church, New Jersey; she drove the service to the Shawnee mission on "Publishing Islam," the evening service he preached on "Ashaned and Not Ashaned." Church school met on Friday, the secretary was the speaker at the Epi-
glowering as best his bleary eyes could, uttered an oath, and slammed back to "kick hell out the maze." He succeeded in breaking the wall and in the act of kicking the yanker an when one of the passengers ed him.
"Let me at her," he muttered.
**Whip Him Like a Mother**
For the first time the girl's well-modulated, was heard to walk with slow pace back here, and he Him like his mother never did.
The man towered fully four inches over Miss Blake.
Passengers remarked: "She didn't hit him hard enough!" "She was much for you," Get, she had plenty to drink!" "He should have been put off the train."
As soon as the conductor came through the train two white passengers hailed him and had the drunk led away.
An AFRO reporter Miss Blake said:
"We got on the train at Wilmington, and were sitting there talking between us, now we looked in the window and we heard: 'Damm migners have any business in here?' We went on talking and paid no attention to it. The man had to Turn Around. "He was sitting two seats above you to the left was he not?" "Yes." "Then he had to, turn around to see, and direct his" "communicate at von. didn't he?"
"Yes, he certainly did! But that not all. When we continued not to mind him, he got up out of the seat and came across the alley and said to the niggers bother you when just let me know. If they knew you, you just tell me, I will fix Either one of them!" But the said-she "seemed surprise" the niggers sent her "Then that when he started us. Oh, you should have heard of the things he said!" Miss Blake murmured bittern "We have to pay the same amount as white people, and I don't see we can ride in comfort or peace Anybody with an arm like that girl needs not worry; she will.
