THOMAS SPEAKS
Dyer Called World's Greatest Hypocrite.
WASHINGTON, D. C. Division of the Negro vote between the Republican and Democratic parties was advocated by James C. Thomas, an attorney, of New York City, at a meeting at the Mu-So-Lit Club, 1327 R Street, Northwest, last Friday night. Mr. Thomas, a comparatively young man, is a former assistant United States attorney for the southern district of New York. He served under the Coolidge administration. He quit the office in 1926, became Democratic and espoused the election of former Governor Alfred R. Smith in 1928.
Old Guards Agree
There were several of the Republican Old Guards in attendance at the meeting. Although a general discussion followed the address of Mr. Thomas, only one of the guards found reservation. Perry W. Howard, Republican national committeeman for Mississippi, Judge James A. Cobb of the municipal court, while making a general defense of the party, agreed that it would be better if the Negro would split his role.
Negroes are chafing under, the treatment they are being accorded by the major political parties, Mr. Thomas declared. He referred to the remark of Fredrick Douglass that "the Republican party is the ship all else the sea." He told me today, let me tell you, that expression is no longer the reason that expression is the new, thinthink Negro is the ship, all else the sea."
Hoover Denounced
Mr. Thomas made a bitter denunciation of the Hoover administration for its treatment of colored Gold Star Mothers and Widows, who were sent to France on a cattle boat to visit the graves of their sons and husbands. He compared that treatment with the reception given them by the Democratic city administration of New York.
He also reminded his audience that Negro had been sent to France on the fastest ships and were armed to be moved up on the firing line. "Such indignity," he declared, "would never occur if the Negro conserved his strength at the polls and called the party in power to account for the injustices heaped upon us.
Every day you pick up a paper and read where some human being has been lynched," he continued, "and the chief who said one word to create public opinion against the burning and lynching of Negroes in the United States."
Photos Shunned
He recalled that no photograph had been made of President Hoover with a colored delegation. Not one appointment of a colored Republican has been made in the Veterans Bureau to protect the interest of the hundreds of thousands of colored veterans, he pointed out.
Muzzling Jobholders
He charged the Republican party with taking able men of the race and giving them jobs, "and once a man has a job and his bread; and butter depend on it, he can not tell the people the truth," political party wants your suffrage, "deferred," "it must guarantee you a fair break. Sixty-five years of trial I think has been sufficient to put the Republican party
(Paris Bureau of the AFRO) PARIS. — American musicians here are alarmed over a probable embargo on foreign musicians. Last week abrupt action was taken by the French authorities against the Hal Hemp orchestra (white) which had been playing at the Ambassadeer's Restaurant during the absence of Noble Sissie and his band at Monte Carlo). The white musicians did not possess the regulation workers' cards required by French law. When this was discovered they were at once ousted, and French musicians put in their place. It is believed that the affair will to an extensive inquiry as it is suspected that the number of American musicians, colored and white, in France without working cards is large.
Forced to Leave
The Ambassadeurs was fined $4,000 while the white musicians have found themselves in temporary financial difficulties. Noble Sisle is to return shortly to the Ambassadeurs, and there be no difficulty for him and his men to be provided with the necessary cards. The white musicians WE ARE

FRISCH HURT
Gelbert, Wilson, Cardinals Fail to Shine.
Scoring four runs in the first inning, the Baltimore Black Sox romped to a 10-0 victory over the All Stars, white, strengthened by three world series players of the St. Louis Cardinals, and won their fourth straight victory over the white big league players in the Maryland Park, Sunday, before a crowd estimated at nearly ten thousand persons.
The four national league players who were being used to stem the Sox's winning streak were Frankie Frisch, second baseman; Charley Gelbert, shortstop; Jimmy Wilson, all of the St. Louis Cardinals, and Johnny Neun, of the Boston Braves.
The second game of the scheduled doubleheader was called at end of the game on account of darkness, with the Sox leading by a 4-3 score.
The Sox piled up their lead in the first stanza when Big Jim Weaver, All-Star twirler, in covering first base, dropped the ball thrown by Neum and allowed Warfield a shot Lundy, Washington a third base, Brooklyn Eagles, back Mackey, the other scores, after Big Jim filled the bases and walked two men. Weaver was knocked all over the lot, the Sox getting thirteen safe hits.
McDonald, Sox submarine pitching, allowed only seven hits, filling the big lead with pitches and keeping the hits scattered. The All-Stars made future efforts to score in the third and fifth innings, but McDonald, well supported by mates, tightened up in the pinches.
Gelbert, of the Cardinals, failed to connect in four trips to bat, but Frisch and an opposing pitcher, McDonald, struck out nine of the All-Stars, while Weaver took the measure of five.
Eggleston was the only Sox player who did not connect with Weaver's ball, falling in four trips to the plate. Brunier continues to be the star batter for the All-Stars, and was the only white boy to get two hits. Hallahan, a third baseman of the St. Louis Cardinals, who won one game, St. Louis for his team, but lost the final game in Philadelphia, will pitch the first game Sunday in

At present there are more than 500 French musicians out of work due to the talkie and the radio, which is now being used in cafes where there were formerly orchestras. Within recent months it has become increasingly difficult for foreigners to get working cards due to the pressure of the Musicians' Union, and a well-known colored musician got into trouble recently because of
Singers Forced Out
In England the condition is even worse. Before arriving in the United Kingdom the foreign musician is forced to get a card from the Ministry of labor which he must present to landlords. Last week the Kentucky Singers of New York were forced to get out of England although they had many offers of work from the theatrical management at the Empire Theatre in this city. The members of this chorus are, Frank Riley; William Veasley; Arthur "Strut" Payne; Forbes; Randolph, manager; Vivian; Carr; J. Arthur; Robert Carew; J. Arthur; and Robert Carew. The Kentucky Singers spotted a success in Germany.

NEW YORK.—Despite the efforts of the police the numbers racket flourishes in Gotham today as much as at any time in the history of this new form of the old policy game.
Following a conference of clergy-men of leading colored and white churches, together with a number of heads of white insurance companies, a determined drive was made some time ago to wipe out this new and fascinating form of gambling and which the New York World said the people Harlem were spending more than they were for food.
So tight has the net been that if one is now caught with a number slip on his person he is given a maximum sentence of six months in prison. Bankers or better known as backers of numbers, are forced to use the utmost secrecy, as to hide their hideouts, to move each each day if necessary, to new headquarters. Some are reported to use large moving vans for their headquarters so that they may easily move about from place to place, and avoid the arm of the law. The World attempted a survey some months ago and came to the conclusion that more than $100,000 per day was being spent in this new $150,000. Today this sum is nearer
Worth Quarter of a Million
Some idea of the money that may be made out of this form of gambling by the bankers may be gained from the fact that two young colored men in Harlem who began hacking the game several years ago are now reported to be worth over a quarter million dollars. There are bankers in Harlem who have as many as 1300 runners gathering in the loose pennins and dimes and dolphins from their regular crowdsers each day. They also collect men who have a certain place of meeting for the runners who turn their collections over to them and they in turn give these

RECEIVER ASKED FOR FEDERAL LIFE INS. CO.
WASHINGTON, D. C. — Dissolution of the Federal Life Insurance Company and the appointment of receivers to wind up its affairs are asked for in a bill of complaint filed in the District Supreme Court last Tuesday by Dr. Carroll A. Brooks, Dr. Thomas C. Smith, Dr. T. Edward Jones, Mrs. Minnie B. Smoot and L. Melendez King, trustees and stockholders. The petitioners allege that they have discovered that the property and effects of the insurance have not been covered by losses or otherwise that it will not be able to pay all just demands against it.
Risks $114.383
They state that the company has outstanding insurance risks amounting to $14,383 and no adequate legal reserve to meet its obligations. They allege that policies have been issued without physical examination of applicants. The company by vote of its trustees September 22, illegally attempted to direct them to purchase a piece of real estate for the sum of $60,000, the petitioners state. The real value of the property, they say, is not more than $40,000. The company is unable to carry out its part of the contract to purchase this property, they state. The contract, they say, has not received the approver of the insurance commissioner of the District of Columbia. The Federal Life Insurance Company was incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia February 28, 1922. L. Melendez King represents the petitioners.

KISSING RECTOR OBEYS LAW TO BUSS FLOCK
WILMINGTON, Del. — A kiss that caused so much trouble in the Garden of Eden has again created havoc in ecclesiastical circlse and has wrecked the local church of God because the pastor, the Rev. John D. Walters, white, insisted upon kissing the cheeks of his colored members as well as the white when they were leaving the church.
Dissension arose when the newly appointed pastor stepped down from his pulpit after the Sunday services and affectionately planted a kiss on the cheeks of his colored parishioners as they were leaving the edifice. The ministry board objected to the pastor's action. Rev. Walters uttered that the tenets of the Church God provided that the pastor must oscillate regardless of color and he declared his intention to abide by the laws of the church.
Bishon Upholds Pastor
They then carried their complaint to Bishop W. H. Hiles, of Richmond Va., who ruled in favor of the pastor, declaring that he could kiss whom he pleased. In his pronouncement the bishop non-communicated with the pastor, aware that the objecting members would concur with the action of the pastor or be declared out of the church as no color line was to be drawn by "God's children." The five insurgent members, led by J. H. Foraker, white, with their wives, have decided to set up a new church of their own to be known as Pentecostal Christ. The pastor could stand the pastor as he bussed their own wives, but could not see him buss the colored members as well.

WHITE MAN WILLS 16 "WIVES," 50 KIDS, $3,000,000
LONDON. — Sixteen native African wives and their fifty children will divide the $3,000,000 estate of M. Doherty, white, Irishman, who died in Lagos, West Africa recently, according to his will filled for probate in the government department at Somerset House, here.
Doherty, who accumulated his large fortune as a trader, is said to have named every child separately in the document, some of them requiring as many as fifteen letters to designate. Officials declare that the will is flawless and that in all probability the wives of the white man and their children will divide the estate.
Lagos attorneys declare that the white trader provided well for his wives during his long colon in the African country, and gave each of them a house of her own in Lagos. The will clearly designates them as wives, and it is said that the chiefs were employed by the chiefs was employed in the domestic relations of the white man and the sixteen African matrons.

MOTHER LIED TO SAVE HER SON FROM DISGRACE
Told Mob Husband was Slain by a Dark Complexioned Man.
SON CONFESSES
Troops Save Innocent Lad from Lynching
HUNTSVILLE, Ala.—How near another Alabama mob came to wreaking its vengeance on an innocent suspect was revealed here last week when state law enforcement officers arrested Thomas Ross, and another white man, and charged them with killing the father of Ross, a crime for which G. H. Henderson had been held as a suspect.
Henderson was saved from mob violence only when state mililia drove away a third crowd of white men with bayonets (tea bombs). He was taken to Birmingham and lodged in the Jefferson County jail for safe keeping.
Killed Father :
Evidence, said to be conclusive,
reveals that the elder H. E. Ross
was killed by his son Thomas and
J. P. Matheny, the latter a foreman
in the Ross dry cleaning establishment,
when he surprised them in
trying to steal the company's funeral.
According to the story which
formed the basis for the arrest, the
two white men, son and foreman,
went to the father's home while the
latter was away. When Ross
returned and found the men in his
bedroom where the day's receipts
until banking day, a fight
engaged during which the elder man
was killed.
Henderson a Suspect
When officers reached the house, Mrs. Ross told them that a "dark Negro" had attempted a robbery and that she had been wounded when she attempted to aid her husband. This story might have stood up and beaten, but for the fact that Matherny was arrested trying to pawn some jewelry, and confessed, implicating the younger Ross. Later, Mrs. Ross confessed she had lied to save her son. Loss of her husband was bad enough, she said. Loss was also said, was reported to Governor Graves by "an old white woman" who knew how the killing occurred. The Governor ordered out the state guard to protect Henderson, who knew nothing of the crime. He wrote declare Governor Bibb Graves is fair and firm in his determination to stop lynching in Alabama.

POLICE DOZE AS STREET WALKERS PLY THEIR TRADE
14th Street Between N and U is Red Light District.
WHITES BRAZEN
Now Approach Any Colored Girl.
WASHINGTON, D. C. — Street walking for the purpose of soliciting white men has become the transient occupation of numerous colored women.
Attention was focused on this form of commercialized vice when a white man and a colored woman were brought into Police Court last week. They had been picked up in Cleveland Park. They were in an automobile parked alongside a road. An officer came up unknowingly and flash his light upon them. The white man was sitting in the act of committing a perversion. The woman was identified as a street walker.
14th Street the District
These women ply their trade mostly along Fourth Street between N and U Streets, nw. They will saunter along the east side of Fourth Street if they are going north, or will stroll along the west side if they are going south. An automobile with one, two or three white men will slow pass and either pull at the curb several feet ahead of her or drive into one of the cross streets and will street walkers are no simplemets. They know all the artifices of their trade. Most of them have been schooled in the underworld where folks live by their wits. They will approach the waiting automobile and first ask for a cigarette. They next ask if they do not know have they not seen before of the men. One and a Half to Three Dollars. After satisfying themselves that the man is the "law," they are ready for bargaining. Their bodies come cheap. They will ask from $1.50 to $3 from each man and will get in an automobile: with two or three men.
These women come from the lowbrow strata of society. They choose street walking that that's attractive about them. By day, in nine cases out of ten, the average man would pass them up. Some of them have seen better days and blame their downfall on either a man or bad liquor. They need a drink. Some come to be at night when the streets are virtually deserted except by motorists.
White Men Bold
Under frequent solicitations, white men who accept the offer of these women have become bold. They do not confine themselves to the those eleventh Street and the those twelfth Street. All northwest Washington where colored girls may be seen going about their business are visited by them. They will follow girls, drive their automobiles to the curb and make insulting remarks to
Police Inactive
The laws of the District of Columbia are ample to break up both practices. The District code specifically covers soliciting. The women could also be arrested on charges of vagrancy or assault, and are inactive against this form of vice. Only in exceptional cases where a hard-booted policeman insists upon making an arrest are these matters ever brought into Police Court, and then the judge in the district will decide. In the case of the state pervert last week, both the man and the woman were fined $250 each or six months in jail.

WASHINGTON, D.C.-To determine the qualifications of the Howard University School of Law for approval by the American Bar Association, an inspection of the school will be made on October 15 by Will Sharroth, advisor of the section of Legal Education and Admissions of the American Bar Association, that the association has made an inspection of a law school devoted primarily to the education of colored students. The American Bar Association is waging a determined effort to improve the caliber of the professional standards as a requirement of the bar examiners of various states. The result of this effort is reflected in the fact that the state law requires all college students in addition to law training, with 31 state bar associations having approved the standards of the American Bar Association. These 31 states contain more than a percent of the lawyers in the country.
Two Years of College
Standards of the American Bar Association insist upon two years of college work as a prerequisite to legal study, together with a two-year part-time day student, or four years for part-time evening students. They further require that the school be adequately housed, and equipped with a library of not less than 7,500 books, that at least three members of the faculty devote their entire time to the school, and that the school shall not be conducted as a commercial enterprise. Howard meets these requirements and administers the three full-time tests. There are only 71 law schools in the United States now on the American Bar Association's approved list. In 1928 a full-time, 3-year day school was initiated with the appointment of three full-time professors. The faculty now consists of four full-time professors and a full-time librarian, with five other part-time members of the faculty and an assistant librarian. In the library are 10,000 volumes. In the law school is housed in its separate building at 420 5th Street, NW, opposite Judicary Square.

Way to Get At a Cold Is Through the Bowels
Way to Get At a Cold Is Through the Bowels
As soon as you catch cold, the pores close; perspiration is checked. Gases and waste can't escape if you don't wash. Your doctor's first advice in case of colds is a mild laxative like cascara. Medical authorities agree, it actually strengthens the muscles. You get a mild laxative most pleasant form in candy cascara.
Remember this when you catch cold; whenever breath is bad; tongue coated; or your headache, billions. Why resort to harsher things when Cascarias activate the bowels so quickly, so harmlessly and pleasantly—and cost only a dime? EVERY ONE LIKES GOOD HAIR!

600 INSURGENT ELKS MEET AT TRENTON
Form Committee of 100 to Launch a Permanent Split Organization.
JUDGE HENRY THERE
Ben Davis Sends Letter of Approval.
TRENTON, N.J. — More that six hundred Elks and daughter Elks from many sections of the country convened here Monday to consider plans for the organization of a new grand lodge. Among them were a few who were in opposition to the new proposal. These however, were denied entry in the conference by a carved-in infusive plan.
The meeting was called to order by J. Bernard Johnson, exalted ruler of Sunlight. Lodge, which acted as host to the conference. Mr. Johnson welcomed the conference, reminding it that the action of Sunlight. Lodge in entertaining it had brought forth a threat of expulsion from the grand exalted ruler, J. Fin-
ley withdrew. He produced James T. Carter, former grand treasurer, as presiding officer. Mr. Carter declined whereupon G. Wallace Edwards Park nominated W. W. Shivers of Smithfield Va., who was unanimous.
Norrell Keynote
The keynote speech was made by M A Norrell, of Richmond, Va. He charged that by taxation, threats, truancy and the sale of the Washington eagle (containment "Buzzard") J. F. Hinmilow had driven all loyal liosk ledges in Virginia to seek other means to protect their property.
James T. Carter, in reviewing the status of the Virginia case, upholded the rights of Rickenbacker of the organ and operative that state, made the astonishing statement that Judge Groner's decision, if upheld, (and he had no doubt that it would be) might prove that the case was more than a migratory body with no corporate existence. He made the further astounding declaration that upholding the decision by the Circuit Court of Appeals might give the court more time to oust all Elks lodges not join-

U.S. HAD ELECTION IN HAITI HOGTIED
Prattis Ridicules Statement that Marines were Neutral on Tuesday.
VOTING A FARCE
Only "Yes" Men will Get on with U.S.
By P. L. PRATTIS for the A.N.P.
CHICAGO-Tuesday the citizens of the Republic of Haiti went to the polls to elect the senators and representatives of the national congress. Later, the president of the republic to be chosen from among the senators.
Tuesday's election is described as the first "free election" which has occurred since the United States interfered in Haiti's affairs in July, 1915.
Short articles have been appearing in the daily press containing the message that the government is going to stay in their barracks and permit the Haitians to vote as they desired, although there was no certainty that the Haitians might not become violent themselves in the case the marines might get busy.
The inference is that the United States is taking a noble stand and permitting the black man to be ness, no matter how much it hurts them. That is all rot. The United States has not forced such a knot that the black country cannot be itself.
Haiti's present government was forced on her. In 1917, the marines, at the point of the pistol at the mouth of Haiti out of the legislative chamber, because these representatives refused to endorse the course the United States was taking, and since that time the country has been forced to fear the fate of freedom in Haiti as long, the United States controls all of Haiti's government money, including the President's salary. The plain, simple attitude of the Haitian state, that of wanting each and every hated white American face to get out of Haiti, quickly. The Haitians want to run their own country. They want men in office whose hatred of Americans depends upon them, who will act敏ibly to rid the country of United States influence.
U. S. Wants "Yes" Men
The spirit of Haiti and the will of the United States collide upon that point. The United States must have Haitian leaders at hand, and "go along." Haiti wants a leader who will give Uncle Sam a good kick in the pants and send him back home.
The pickings are tough; anyway you take them. The Haitians may contrive to elect a belligerent patriot, but as soon as he is in office, he learns the United States bids or the genial American financial advisor will cut his board and lodging.

COURT PADLOCKS RICHMOND RESIDENCE
RICHMOND. Va. (ANP)—A man's house might be his castle, but for the next two months Alaska and Louisiana Grant, will not be able to enter their home at 246 Corbin Street. due to the fact that the federal court has ordered it padlocked as a "public nuisance. The court cannot not be able to occupy the house anyway as they yet have to face charges of violating the liquor laws such as manufacturing, transporting, and selling whiskey. The padlocking of a residence is a precedent in this city. Neighbors of Harris, Mitchell, Grant, et al, filed the first complaint.
and dry with no place to go. But the Americans did not give in. They stuck out for what they wanted and a new Hawaiian cabinet was found.
Popular Elections
Under the circumstances, Haiti's elections are much more "popular" than those in the United States. There is no area in Haiti where large numbers of the citizens are deliberately deprived of the vote as in southern France. The depth of the population of the United States is "legally" disfranchised. Whoever does not vote in Haiti fails to do so either because he does not want to or does not know how. Haiti is a land of many mountains and inaccessible regions. Great ports and coastal districts, similar to that so proudly possessed by the white hill billies of Kentucky, North Carolina, and other sections of our own south. Dense ignorance always misses the ballot box in its grab for the bread box. It will take time to enlighten the hill billies of Haiti just as it has taken time to get to the white hill billies of the United States. President Hoover started a school for some of them in Virginia last winter. There are Haitians who know the country as the United States. There are Americans who think Linderberg is a cheese.
Nobody need fear violence in a Haitian election. If a single average citizen in Haiti today has a firearm, the bodies of those will grow in the worst limestone. In the last Caco uprising in Haiti, the cacao dug old up rusty shooting pieces out of the ground and with them have seized all these by now. Haitians are completely disarmed. Even if they were not, Chicago, New York, and other southern city could give the Haitians advanced lessons in election violence.

DEMOCRATS CYNICAL
Point Out Poor Conditions Among Miners.
BLUEFIELD, W.Va.-The Bluefield Daily Telegraph, in its issue of October 10th, carried the following:
"Campaign Opening a Joyful Affair"
"The general opening of the Republican headquarters on South Bland Street, will take place Saturday evening, October 11 from 6 to 11 o'clock. The headquarters and offices of the executive committee are at 448% Bland Street, over Wills's store, and consists of five rooms.
"All voters are invited to be present. Refreshments will be served consisting of punch, sandwiches, etc. Come and bring a friend. There will be the best of music and dancing, and everything free. Speeches will be made by a number of good speakers. A special invitation is extended to the ladies."
The saying goes: "An army moves on its stomach." The Grand Old Party is attempting to win the November election on the stomachs of the sixty or more thousands of Negro voters.
The streets are full of working men. They can't buy a job. The world knows that the working conditions in the mines of Southern West Virginia are the most deplorable.
Housing conditions among our group on works of Colonel J. E. Jones are worse than they were in the dark ages. Such as present day sanitation has not even been dreamt by Colonel Jones.
God deliver the so-called leaders of the G.O.P. in West Virginia. The issue in this campaign is plain "bread and meat" with all working groups.

Elks Seek Arrest
Officials of Great Lakes Elks' Lodge sought this week to have Blinga taken into custody in order to obtain satisfaction on a claim of $18,000, insurance money which they allage the banker collected on their building, after a fire, and refused to turn over to them. The building was being bought from Blinga by the lodge when the fire occurred. The lodge had repairs made and the insurance company made payment in due time, but to Blinga. The contractors for the repairs now seek payment from the lodge which claims never to have had the money. The attorney on the part of Mrs. Blinga to have a conservator appointed may mean that the reversal in the banker's affairs has driven him out of his mind, or it may indicate a strategic effort on her part to place his assets out of the reach of creditors.

P
"I have been reading all of my life. I must have been born reading in the cradle. Next to reading I love writing. I started a book when I was eight years old. It has not materialized as yet, but I still love to write."
She was at one time a feature writer for the APRO-AMERICAN conditionist magazine, her viewpoint "full of wit, humor and common sense. Besides writing for other papers, she has reviewed books for the Opportunity Magazine, which awarded her honorable award for best for a personal experience sketch.
Belonged to "Scribblers"
Her love for writing was expressed for five years by membership in the "Scribblers," a group of amateur writers. She always attentuied their work. I would not be a bit surprised, however, to find her popping up again in another group of scribblers. She's like that, you know. Her fondness for reading is expressed in the Book-a-Month which is one of the founders.
Readin' and 'rith' are not all of the story by any means, for this reason. Readin' is the time for 'rithmatic, too; meaning, a number of things. She was a teacher in the Baltimore schools and also in Catonsville. Baltimore County, for instance, has a large slate to George V. Lottier, an employee of the Baltimore post office, and a well known Baltimore. She came to this city from Harriet Street and received her training, accompanying her parents, the Rev. and Mrs. R. H. Armstrong. The Rev. Mr. Armstrong came to the University of Madison Street Presbyterian Church, where he served about ten years. Welfare and Church Worker Her capitation of the Church in a number of activities—religious, clicc, and welfare. They include the Rose Ward Circle, a welfare organization: the N.A.A.C.P., the Grace Presbyterian Church, the minister, and the teacher of a class of high school girls, and the Urban League, of which she has been secretary to the executive board since its inception in this
Besides these activities at the present time, she has assisted with the work of the Clare League, the Junior League of Miss Elsie Mountain, and was actively connected with the Ladies Auxiliary of the Y.M.C.A., when that organization functioned. Another person she has helped is the Boy Scout organization, of which she own, Irvin. is assistant scoutmaster.
In addition to her work in the Sheffield of Grace Church, she also belongs to the Missionary Society, there. She has been the vice-president of the Parent-Teacher Association of the High School for some time, although a resignation from that body is now pending.
A Successful Mother
But best of all and assimilating, too, is her husband, she is a successful wife and mother, which is saying a great deal in these days of modernistic views and jazz marriages. She finds time to bake and cook, and she is fairly plant flowers to be a big brother and a chum to little sister, and a helpmeet to hubby. Now and then there is a bridge game or two, which may not belong to any of the social clubs.
Perhaps if she had not been so busy doing all of these things and looking after her husband and four children, she may have carried her along the primrose path. Who knows? Personally, I think it was just another fine and modest woman of the old and the modern that rocks the cradle rules the world."

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER (1906)
The time has come for the Negro should make good use of his vote. It is no use to have it unless we are going to gain something by it.
We have no sympathy with the man who buys or the man who sells his vote, because there are other ways of getting it so that there may be an advantage in so doing.
Let us look to have that advantage on our side.
African chauffeurs are more polite than those in New York, declares Mrs. Douthit, who says her "voyage will show that Africa is just as civilized as the United Sattos."
This is only an estimate based upon the survey which shows that in eight city wards where the colored vote is negligible, 17,163 white voters registered as Democrats and 7,995 as Republicans. This means, roughly speaking, that out of the three white voters, one registered as a Republican. If the same ratio can be regarded as prevailing in the Fifth Ward, where 330 white persons registered, then 220 of them were Democrats. A total of 344 Democrats were registered in this ward which means that 124 of them were then probably colored. Using this data of analogy in other wards where colored voters registered in large numbers, these figures result:
Especially is this to be hoped since both Mr. Hoover and his party have pledged themselves to support legislation of this type. The AFRO will speak many readers of the AFRO will find themselves in essential disagreement.
Speaking of the freedom which America offers, with "equal opportunity" and "universal education for every boy and girl," the Presi-
Mr. Hoover must know that this statement does not apply to millions of Americans. No Catholic can rise to the Presidency, no Jew to many a federal office, and in the South no Negro may be a policeman, motorman or even garbage company, much less postmaster or mayor, in states where America has not only an aristocracy of colon but it has a relation of color.
Strange that Mr. Hoover has been President for two years and overlooked this simple thesis. On the question of government, Mr. Hoover made himself most ridiculous of all. Speaking in degrees only with a few hundred out of a million vote, the President said:
Maryland is to the AFRO-AMERICAN what home is to everybody else. We did not pick it out as a place to be born, but we have chosen it as a place to remain and here with its virtues and faults, no matter how humble, there is a reason for this reason, when persons outside the state misrepresent its progress or its institutions the AFRO is among the first to call attention to the AFRO. Such a misrepresentation was made last week by Dr. B. C. Caldwell, white, of New York, field agent for the Jeanes and Slater Funds, in the course of a meeting at the Perkins College for Teachers. Speaking on "What White People Can Do to Promote Negro Education," Dr. Caldwell said:
**lion vote, the Failure of the United States once their of self-growth. What a United States, undoubted Disaster, necessary or else them.**
**Edition.**
the ancient and honorable Phi, Dhane, editor of the Cincinnati Union, lambets the absence of "blood" and "battle" in the editorial columns of the modern weekly.

from the capital at Washington* the late Galvin Chase, with the Washington *Bee*, wielded a scorching pen. too far he went in labelling the late O. H. J. Taylor (recorder of deeds) and Washingtonians actually feared Chase. In Richmond, capital of the Confederacy, the quill of the late John Mitchell was equally blistering. He has softened the old wielders of editorial battle axes. Chase. Perry, Mitchell, Fortune, are dead; a new generation concentrates its guns on the enemy without rather than on its contemporaries within. Not dead, not ailing, not even losing vitality, is Gillian Mitchell. Dame Bennett, corned a classic phrase when he referred to a rival newspaper as Cleveland's toilet paper. The AFRO, which passed its fortieth birthday two weeks ago, lived through the "good old days," Howard said. How far could the press have gotten in its fight against the confirmation of Judge Parker, twenty-five years ago? We can understand why an old warhorse like Mr. Dabney still longs, or the excitement of the 1960s could have been that the-Cincinnati Union, his newspaper, is foremost in the 'real' fight these days against segregation in residential areas and schools, Jim crow and race hate everywhere, even in the

Editor and Publisher. 1892-1922.
In the Fourteenth Ward last Thursday estimates indicate that 248 colored voters registered as Democrats and 884 as Republicans. This is only an estimate based upon the survey which shows that in eight city wards where the colored vote is negligible, 17,158 white voters registered as Democrats, 11,168 as Republicans, roughly speaking, that out of every three white voters, one registered as a Republican.
If the same ratio can be regarded as prevailing in the Fifth Ward, where 330 white persons registered, then 220 of them were Democrats. A total of 344 Democrats were registered in the sixteen states that 124 of them were then probably colored.
Using this same kind of analogy in other words where colored voters registered in large numbers, these figures result:
Table showing White Registrants, Democratic Registrants, Colored Registrants and Colored Democrat registrations in the states listed:
| White | Dem. | Col. |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| 57th Ward | 330 | 440 | 124 |
| 58th Ward | 304 | 420 | 121 |
| 59th Ward | 1,632 | 1,637 | 490 |
| 60th Ward | 1,627 | 1,637 | 480 |
| 61th Ward | 1,949 | 878 | 1,232 | 54 |
| 62th Ward | 942 | 878 | 1,232 | 54 |
| 63th Ward | 1,499 | 455 | 1,125 | 202 |
| 64th Ward | 1,499 | 455 | 1,125 | 202 |
| 65th Ward | 663 | 625 | 650 | 183 |
| 66th Ward | 663 | 625 | 650 | 183 |
| 67th Ward | 348 | 487 | 390 | 122 |
This unusual trend of Negro registration as Democrats is best shown in the 17th Ward where only 199 white persons all told registered, but where the books showed 435 Democrats. Democrats were represented as a Democrat, there still remained 238 Democratic registrations which could only be accounted for as coming from colored persons. A summary of these nine wards indicates 6,196 colored Republicans registered last Thursday and 1,556 colored Democrats. This means that 20 percent of registered were Democrats and 80 percent Republicans. These figures, relatively correct, prove that every sixth colored voter in Baltimore is a Democrat, and of the 26,480 black Democrats, 4,410 are Democrats and 10,070 are Republicans with both parties as this affiliation of Negroes with both parties is the fact that the total Negro registration is now 26,480 which is more than it was in 1928, and there is yet one day of registration left (October 16). The funds are likely to go beyond the 1928 manpower when voters are registered in order to express their preference for Hoover or Smith.
Governor Ritchie in 1919 defeated Nice by 165 votes. In 1923 he defeated Armstrong by 40,400 votes. He won over Mullinik in 1926 by 59,000 votes. This year he won the election, it matters a great deal how four or five thousand persons register and vote.
Should Get His Figures
Maryland is to the AFRO-AMERICAN what home is to everybody else. We did not pick it out as a place to be born, but we have chosen it as a place to remain and here we know whether how humble, there is no place like home. For this reason, when persons outside the state misrepresent its progress or its institutions to it and want to call to attention it and point out the facts. Such a misrepresentation was made last week by Dr. B. C. Caldwell, white, of New York. field agent for the Jeanes and Silver Funds, in the course of a meeting with college for Tennessee Louisville, Kentucky. Speaking on "What White People Can Do to Promote Negro Education," Dr. Caldwell said: "Now I have the impression that the state of Maryland has the best system of figures for that, but visiting the county superintendents and going around with them and seeing all of them in the counties outside of Baltimore, has led me to believe that Maryland has the best system of Negro schools. They have excellent training schools. Whether Dr. Caldwell said this for political effect (Maryland is now engaged in a statewide election), or whether as a boost to Professor J. W. Huffington, white supervisor in charge of state schools, it is absolutely the most important reasons:
1. Maryland is behind North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, Alabama and even Georgia, in providing state colleges and industrial, mechanical and agricultural schools for colored students. Our education stops short of the need to last among the states of the South in the building of Rosenwald schools, and has shown little disposition to take advantage of the offer of the Jewish philanthropist who has helped erect 5,000 colored country schools in other states. Texas, West Virginia, Missouri, and Oklahoma are ahead of Maryland in percentage of population who can read and write. Delaware and Missouri have longer school terms. Missouri and Oklahoma have more money per child in education than any other state. West Virginia, Missouri, and several other states have a larger percentage of children in school. According to statistics compiled by the Negro Year Book, Maryland spends $17.17 a year in the education of each colored child. West Virginia spends nearly twice as much. Kentucky spends $2, and the District of Columbia $44.
Educators ought not go around making speeches without figures; and before Dr. Caldwell-speaks, again on this subject, we suggest he make a brief study of the facts.
Part Time Pastors
Into the discussion of the question, should pastors engage in outside activities for pay before a mid-western A.M.E. conference recently Bishop Archibald Carey, presiding, projects himself with the declaration that ministers might do other work provided it does not interfere with their church activities.

Into the discussion of the question, should pastors engage in outside activities for pay? before a mid-western A.M.E., conference recently, Bishop Archibald Carey, presiding, projected himself with the declaration that ministers might do other work provided it does not interfere with their church activities.
Said he:
"I see no reason why a minister should not hold another position as principal of a school as long as he continues to function properly as a pastor."
As a pastor, church, and an elected bishop speaking for his denomination, the AFRO has no disposition to declare Bishop Carey in error.
We cannot help noting, however, that the good bishop is speaking from actual experience. He divides his time between the bench of bishops at the office of Civil Service Commissioner of Chicago.
A part-time bishop could not well condemn a part-time pastor.

Mary Douthit, 62, an American white woman is crossing Africa in a taxi. Her path leads 4,000 miles from Windhoek, South Africa, to Casablanca, French Africa. African chauffeurs are more polite than those in New York, declares Mrs. Douthit, who says her "voyage will show that Africa is just as civilized as the United States." She started on her trip before it became known at the headquarters of the KKK, and the Black Shibs in Atlanta Surely they would insist that Mrs. Douthit surround herself with a nightgowned body guard before starting on a trip in which her associates by day and by night will be all colored.

Too bad that Mrs. Douthit started on her trip before it became known at the headquarters of the K.K.K. and the Black Shirts in Atlanta. Surely they would insist that Mrs. Douthit curate her trip so that she could start on a trip in which her associates by day and by night will be all colored.
Mr. Hoover's Hokum
Mr. Walter White, acting secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, testifying before the Fish Congressional committee investigating Communist activities in the United States, said last week:
"One lynching in Mississippi stirs more anger. Negroes will all be punished, munist propaganda which can be spread in a year."
Similarly President Hoover, speaking on the Kings Mountain, North Carolina, battlefield last week, said:
"While we cannot permit any foreign person to enter our nation, yet we must look to our own conduct that we do not by our own failure to unhold and safeguard the true spirit of America we have been taught to live under the very forces which uphold our national greatness.
"It is in our own house that our real dangers lie, and it is there that we have need to deal with them and our highest sense of public service.
"We must keep corruptive influences from the nation and its ideals as we would keep the nation free from the obedience of law are the very incarnation of destruction to a system whose basis is law."
Seeing that the N.A.A.C.P. and, the President are in essential accord on the question of danger from Russian Communists and the belief that the only dangers are those within, which the President is working for national greatness, it is possible that Mr. Hoover may wake up to the danger represented by thirty-four lynchings during this year and use the power at his disposal to urge anti-lynching legislation. Especially is this to be hoped since both Mr Hoover and his party have pledged themselves to support legislation of this type. With the part of the Hoover speech many readers of the AFRO will find themselves in essential disagreement.
Speaking of the freedom which America offers, with "equal opportunity" and "universal education for every boy and girl," the President said:
Seeing that the N.A.A.C.P. and, the President are in essential accord on the question of danger from Russian Communists and the threat they have against our institutions and destroy the forces working for national greatness, it is possible that Mr. Hoover may wake up to the danger represented by thirty-four lynchings during this period, and at his disposal to urge anti-lynchming legislation.
"We have no class or caste or aristocracy whose privilege limits the hopes and opportunities of our people." Mr. Hoover must know that this statement does not apply to millions of Americans, No Caucus, no Presidency, no Jew to many a federal office, and in the South no Negro may be a policeman, motorman or even garbage collector much less postmaster or mayor, in many states of the Union. America has not only an aristocracy of colon but it has a religion of color. Being rich in the United States or going to heaven—neither of these is half as important as being white. Strange that Mr. Hoover has been President for two years and overlooked this simple thesis. On the question of government, Mr. Hoover must be civilized of all. Speaking in a state where Red Shirts have terrorized Negroes until only a few hundred out of a million vote, the President said:
Being rich in the United States or going
to college of these is half as important
as being white.
"Failure of many of our citizens to express their opinions at the ballot box is, at least, a manifestation of the whole basis of self-government.
What a ghastly remark for the President of the United States.
Undoubtedly he has become a disciple of Diedrich, who said in ruling a people it is necessary to be their superior or to deprive them."
Editorial Militancy
The ancient and honorable Phil, Dabney, editor of the Cincinnati Union, lambes the absence of "blood" and "battle" in the editorial columns of the modern weekly.
Personal journalism lurid and militant is on the wane. Mr. Dabney says, recalling the manner in which the New York Age defended Booker T. Washington from all critics; how Mr. William Monroe Trocker of Boston, attacked Mr. Monroe in his editorial columns and succeeded red pepper at a meeting the Tuskegeeen addressed.
Violence and vilification screened from the editorial columns of the old days. Mr. Joseph Bibb of the Chicago Whip attacked Mr. Robert Abbott of the Chicago Delender. Mr. Webster Porter of the Tennessee News screamed at Mr. Ben Davis of the Atlanta Independent, and Ben Davis

NO BOURBON, DR. WOOFTER IS FOR BIG RED SCHOOLHOUSES To the Editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN:
I am in receipt of a clipping from the Savanah Tribune of an editorial quoted from you entitled, "Woofierism—A Fallacy." In writing this article, I have been asked to view and classed me where I do not belong, so I hope you will open your columns to the following statement which I believe will make my views on Negro education clear.
I may start by saying that I do not think there is any fundamental disagreement between us as to Negro education. I am for more and better education, and I am a more just distribution of the public funds.
I do not, for an instant, subscribe to the fallacy that the teachers of Negro schools must pay the money over to the collector, although you have ascribed this fallacy to me. I know that the renters of houses and lands and the laborers in industry create values from which this fallacy arises.
These are theoretical statements upon which to plead for an ideal program. In the St. Peter's School, I am told that the program, but to describe an actual situation. Moreover, it was a situation where there are no Negro renters of houses and lands, but a white school. I did not endorse this tax situation as it exists and it is not quite just to me to make it seem that I do.
Fortunately, to keep the record clear, I wrote five years ago, "The Basis of Racial Adjustment," in which book I was dealing more with my ideas as to what ought to be, while in the St. Helena report I was dealing with what is. In page 155 of "The Basis," this statement occurs.
"In order to equalize the opportunities in the rich and poor counties, almost every state has the right to participate in the counties not on the basis of what they pay into the state treasury, but on the basis of their school population and school attendance. This opportunity is not limited to the schools in in turn to use in equalizing the opportunities in their richer and poorer school districts." Also on page 180 of the "Basis," the following sentence is found: "The state shows that that the opportunity to participate in the closely proportion in the two races.
"Although the treatment meted out to the Island is permitted under existing laws, it is nothing to prevent the authorities of Beaufort County from apportioning the benefits and burdens of local government to the island in an awarding on the part of the dominant interests in the county to the real needs of its backyard rural communities and a more balanced approach to the needs, perhaps all that is needed to solve St. Helena's tax problem."
Please remove me from the ranks of the Bourbons.
Yours for big red schoolhouse.

Those Who Say the U.S. is the Best Place for the Negro, Despite its Hardships, are Not the Wiest Counsellors.
To the Editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN:
Could you explain to me just why every Negro who is a Negro says, "The best place for the Negro is the U.S." it seems to me that they are wearing that phrase out, and it is about as sensible as the Southerner who says the best place for the Negro is the U.S.
It is no wonder the other fellow compares Negroes with docile animals, when, after the treatment we receive here, the Abbots, the Alexander, etc. are bragging that this is the best place.
Mr. R. P. P. Alexander says Europe would be like the U.S. if ten or twelve people to Mr. Pleckens, or to Mr. Pleckens, Cuba has seventy per cent colored, and the only prejudice is where Americans have started it. We all want to be people like the people we all move to the North part of the U.S., it would soon be as bad as the South. We are people like the type of tourists you meet. Europe has been seeing gages of colored actors. As to whether or not the young Negro is not a type of negroation, Mr. Alexander must not blame them for wanting him to clown and dance. You cannot refute white American propaganda, but you may—by the young Negro who is not afraid of hard work, going out to Europe, Africa and the rest of the world. The same work as they, and as good, if not better. My pal (who speaks Spanish, French and German) and German) are going to work our way to the Soviet Republic soon. With the money we have the money we are not expect too much trouble in making it.
I think the young Negro should use his own head and stop hitting other people for him. The U.S. isn't the only place there are plenums. A ambulance may make a living without being medicated.
All Negroes should be friendly with foreign-
ers, especially Spanish, French, German and Russo-
nian.
To the Editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN:
We note that the Philadelphia Tribune is publishing a series of articles from the pens of several men of prominence.
Association Opposed to the Eighteenth Amendment is especially called to these articles. In a recent release, they announce expendures of some $395,790.38 during the past eight months.
Association we have been unable to discover where a dollar of this vast sum has reached any of our publications, or any effort
The attention of the Association Opposed to the Eighteenth Amendment is especially important because they announce expenditures of some $99,780.36 during the past eight months. The association have been unable to discover where a dollar of this vast sum has reached any of our publications, or any effort to change the movement. Are the leaders opposed to the Eighteenth Amendment taking it for granted that all of our group are in opposition to the Amendment? If so, they are greatly mistaken. The old custom of dealing with the colored work in the present day. View points expressed to our readers through our own publications carried in the daily paper. Average daily papers. If this were not true there would be no field for the Negro press. Justice in the last Congress, with due credit to all the other forces that contributed to that happy consummation, the Negro press stood aloof in confirmation, and were of undoubted influence. The President seems to recognize this potential, and he has made his efforts to compensate he has made in the States of Indiana, Delaware, Kansas and West Virginia.
By WILLIAM N. JONES
get busy on economic and social problems or close shop, seems to have been the summary of speeches made at the significant conference to discuss the "Negro's attitude toward the church" at Church, in Baltimore, last week.
There is nothing wrong with religion as a basic human force, but there is a great deal wrong with present-day church leadership. The fact is, not the changing attitudes of the masses but the changed attitude of the church which is driving religion out of the lives of human beings.
Making seriously along lines like this may be good for church leaders and especially for ministers of the gospel.
It takes only a casual reflection to see how rapidly human leaders change in the church and Negro churches. By the time boys and girls now in the high school come to be three score and ten years, ministerial leadership in vital human affairs will be almost completely replaced, unchanged, and the change in the trend of things.
Except in some forms of venal politics, and of church finances and personal advancement the ministry is passing away in a modern, modern life. The most serious part of the thing is that ministers are not themselves realizing this, unless the recent conference is a sign to the contrary. The Negro in America, for instance, looks with a great deal more hope to what some organizations like the N.A.A.C.P. are doing to help the Negro he does to the church influence, in for few forums do you find any great white ministerial voice thundering out against it. The more vital economic question, the equitable distribution of the products of human toll, to exploitation and the evils of special interests, you also find the ministry silent from activity in committees and boards which have to take definite stands on live questions upon which there is divided opinion and are thus places of offensive leadership.
There was a time in Negro leadership when no important action could be taken looking to community welfare that did not include the need to group people into any live group doing things and you will not only see that a majority of the group are business people and working men and women, but will notice a decided attitude that it will be beyond the reach of many. Despite the many nocte exceptions, where live ministers in communities take leading roles in the community's progress—and some of these are outstanding—it is the exception rather than the rule, because that the church leadership is becoming less and less vital.
Not long ago this writer sat in a congregation and heard a good minister preach a soul stirring the church of early Christians. He appealed to men and women, many of them hard working, low-waged people to make supreme contributions to the kingdom. Then he rode away from the church in a high-powered Cadillac and went home to rest in deep cushioned louges and place his feet upon Persian rugs.
This is the spirit of modern Christianity, and in my opinion it explains, in part at least, why younger generations are revolting against what they call a hypocritical age.
THAT THERE IS in this country even one Southern white man whose conscience is anachronistic, placing a wolf would go on record as wanting to extract more blood money from human slavery would be unthinkable were it not that Representative Georgia has done that very thing.
Last June he introduced into the House a measure which would re-imbure the owner of every slave living on January 1, 1883, the Emancipation Proclamation Issued by Abraham Lincoln.
Since there were about four million human slaves set free on that date, the owners, or heirs of these owners, could, under such a law, be freed. The Court of Claims and sue for the market price of these slaves, many of them being listed at the time from $5,000 to $10,000 each.
Almost any well ordered mind would have reasoned that the slave owner had a more just claim against this country for the many years that they were kept in bondage without pay than the slaveholder and his heirs, who benefited by their toil and who are still ill-behaved by the bounty of American prosperity up partly by this slave labor.
But that there could evolve out of the slave system such a distorted attitude towards human justice as is expressed in the measures of the law. Larsen only shows to what extent this damnable curse of slavery has infected those who practiced it.
In contrast, the spirit of the heirs of slave driven Negroes is to forget this debt which could not be wiped out with all the gold in America, and help make this a decent country where no such humiliation injustice could be possible again.

The Laughs Behind the News

They arrested a man last week in a twenty-year-old murder and accidental shooting. A Baltimore man read of it and got so scared that he went to headquarters and confessed to stealing a handful of peanuts ten years ago.
The authorities immediately assisstated who would have detectives to the job of recovering the peanuts because they could not convict him without evidence.
Of course, it's a good thing that people don't have to answer for all the crimes they commit but with the people who have been killing time around here so long.
And what would become of the petty thieves who are always trying to steal a march on somebody?
A man snatched a woman's pocketbook on Drud Hill Avenue Saturday and started to run away. The man had larceny in his head, but his feet were honest.
A man was found dead in a telephone booth on Pennsylvania Avenue. The police are of the opinion that the man died to death waiting to get the right number.
He was cut off from the civilized world for days and nights only thoughts of home and loved ones a series of wrond numbers.
At the inquest the telephone company was exonerated from all blames when it was proved that the man could have left the booth, but he did not want to lose his nickel.

Teaching Courtesy
"Hall ye small, sweet courtesies of life for smooth do ye make the road of life." Recently, I overheard the story of a young and applying for a position and getting it because of the "How do you do it?" question. I was told by the official of a big corporation, who explained that "norms of courtesy in business usually require that teachers and parents alike need to take care of each other, and that habits are inculcated in boys and girls while they are in the plastic, just-around-the-corner, to carry them through life." Therefore, parents and teachers must set examples of courtesy, for as you know, courtesy begs courtesy. The most courteous, gracious courtesies for our friends and acquaintances for our family, and sweets often speak to each other and to their children in a way they would not mention of speaking to their friends. We speak to each other as a salesman he calls his wives. Courtesy and good-will often win where

The Proofreader Talks
A fellow-worker points out that there is at least one word whose first syllable is "al" which is pronounced as "all" and means "all". The word is "almighty".
However, my statement in the last sentence that the "al" which constitutes the first syllable of certain words, thus pronounced as "all" is applied to apply only to the words cited. Nevertheless the statement is generally true; and, indeed, one other word in the class under discussion occurs to me in which the "al" has retained the first syllable of all sense. That word is "alternate".
It is true that the most of these coalesced words beginning with "al" which one element was or meant "al", but by gradual extensions or shifts at most, or completely disappeared.
The etymology (origin) of a word is not a reliable guide to its present meaning, but it can be used in tensions or shifts, the meanings of many words have undergone changes which in some cases are difficult to distinguish from the case of the evolution of animals and plants, sometimes the final form and qualification in the course of time, or the bears little resemblance to the original. Consider the word "also". According to the dictionary, "also" is derived from all so," meaning "quite so." But the changes in meanings which the combined words of the original and the meaning of the meaning of the original "all" or the "so." And this is true of practically all words of the original indication. In the case of these words, as in the language generally, often when two or more words coalesce one or more of them, the meaning of a new meaning or a new or restricted application. In such cases, the change may be in appearance, spelling.
In the case of the word "almighty," it is true that the coalesced word "almighty" means change from the original words "all mighty." There is, though, a restricted application of the coalesced word "almighty" term properly be applied, and the coalesced word was probably formed to make a substantive name for that believing a name for that believing the Almighty. Seldom is the word used otherwise except as profanity or slang or an insult.
Hence, if the pseudo coalesced word "alirim" has no different meaning, then the words "all right" there is neither reason nor excuse for its coining—nor is it used to rid himself of being judged by those who know better. F. H. M. M.

The Dream Shatterers Union seems to be working overtime these days. All the little funny stories we've been hanging on to for years are being taken from us one by one. Mary never had a "Hesperus" that was wrecked. Longfellow was a bum reporter. It was some other vessel. Scientists, coolies, coworkers, faken when she was supposed to have dissolved a $200,000 pearl in vinegar and drained the安娜 Anthony with her prodigality. And in a recent book on furs we learn that Cinderella's shoppers were not the only people with original material was "wair," or squirrel; but a French printer, with a habit of spelling phonetically, turned a vanalee into a glass-Van Raile in "Bo Broadway."

Important Potential Strength Being Neglected by the Republican Leaders.
By KELLY MILLER
The Fifteenth Amendment eliminated race and the Nineteenth Amendment eliminated sex from the franchise. Indeed, women constitute a more stable factor than men in the Fourteenth Amendment. According to the Fourteenth amendment, the male may lose his representative capacity if his state cars to disqualify him by imposing restriction on male suffrage. But the female's representative capacity is not reducible by any such limitations.
Herein lies an interesting point in political science which will probably prove useful. Several weeks ago, I issued a release on the effect of the Nineteenth Amendment on women's participation in politics. It was there shown that the results were fallen far below expectation as to woman's participation in politics. When we limit the application to the results results are still more disappointing.
Female Suffrage Greater Asset Than Male.
The colored women as a whole have shown little or no active interest. At election time, a few of the more ambitious ones have attained the office of a minister in the limned campaign. But there has been no comprehensive movement to realize the practical value of the franchise either to the sex or to the race. Colored female suffrage is a greater potential political asset to the state than it is to the sex. There are more colored women of voting age in the states where suffrage is unrestricted. This numerical supremacy is found throughout the Northern states with a heavy Negro population. The colored woman gains a greater relative advantage than her while sister from the Nineteenth Amendment. Every colored woman over twenty-one years of age is given the right to vote, but several millions of women are excluded from this privilege by virtue of their foreign birth.
The enfranchisement of colored women is of tremendous significance to the Republican party, if it only had the sagacity to take advantage of the opportunities every colored woman is a Republican. There is no such thing as a splitting of this vote between the two parties. Several reasons promote this conclusion, including the traditional tradition. She breaks loose slowly from the ancient landmark. Her natural conservatism will hold her to the Lincoln and Summer, after the latter was elected, while she has champed under the bitch and broken away from his bitch poet. The woman has never come into direct contact with Republican political leaders, and experience, first hand knowledge of their chicanery, duplicity and deceit. She has not felt the sting of disappointment and has not received a official recognition. A Negro man may be a Democrat; but a Negro woman, hardy.
Political Questions Have No Appeal.
The Negro man has little interest in the science of government, as such. Tariff, internal revenue policies move him but feelly. To the women of the race they hardly appeal at the race. The issues must be interpreted to them in more immediate terms before they can be answered. There is almost insuperable differentism to get them to register or to vote. I suppose that hard one colored man would vote throughout the North in the last Presidential election. I hardly apprehend that the case will be much different in the present day. There is absolutely no issue about which colored women are easily aroused as a rallying point. A animosity between the Republican hold no keen edge of response. The reasoning involved is too round about and remote.
The record of the Hoover administration means more than even the traditional unfriendliness of the Democrats in the South can hardly scrape the colored women of New York or Boston, will be able to both alike to them. And so the matter will drag along.
The Prohibition Issue Will Arouse Women.
The Grand Old Party may expect little aid from this new element in politics or until it strikes a new and responsive chord. Needless for me to say that this note will be prohibition, in the presidential campaign of 1902. Even colored men understand the meaning of this issue as it affects her own father, husband, son, brother or sweetheart.

Immigration Head Denies Law Distinction Between White and Colored.
LABOR IS PROBLEM
Department Trying to Keep Out Jobless Men'.
HAVANA, Cuba—(ANF) — Shrilled by charges of race discrimination in the administration of immigration laws, El Mundo, Cuba daily, quoted an official denial that colored tourists had been mistreated by this department recently. El Mundo's interest in the subject was occasioned by protests to Cuban and American officials in Cuba, and to the United States department of state, made by William Pickens, field secretary for the National Association of Colored People, after the latter and indictments suffered by Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, and other representative Negroes who sought to enter Cuba as tourists.
Sought Explanation
El Mundo sought an explanation from Senor Pedro Cartaya, subcommissioner of immigration, who emphatically declared that the claim that there had been established any distinctions in the immigration laws in North American citizens, white-colored, who car-*t* to Cuba was false.
"All," asserted Senior Cartaya, "i've been equally attended, without any difference whatever, whenever they have had the proper documents of the United States have not found it easy to disembark, it must necessarily be blamed on the fact that they have not presented their documents required by the government has only endeavored to comply with the rules prescribed strictly, trying to avoid the importation of foreign labor; that is, those elements which would offer comfort to the authorities." To this owl of the fairness of
To this avowal of the fairness of the laws of Cuba, El Mundo surrenderers completely. It is possible that in Cuba any public official, under any pretext, may make distinctions between different citizens of the same country, basing such distinctions solely on the color of the person of the foreigners are and must be well-received among us, be they white or black. Certainly, and such distinction (as of color) in welcoming these visitors from the neighboring republic would be as farfetched as the color of different days of arrival, the nationality of t. steamer which brought them, or the color of their baggage.
A reflection of Cuba's serious labs problem is apparent: the necessary "to watch with great care, the classification of these travelers; that is to say, whether they having the advantage of tourists, should be persons or immigrants."
Borev Man
"After all," concludes El Mundo, "the color complex and the ideas of persecution which beset the colored American in Cuba is probably on bogey man's mind along with him and can't get rid of. For," continues the writer: "It is not possible that in Cuba we should speak of white and black. This is a problem which we must solve. We are artist among us. If a North American organization, so famous as the N.A.A.C.P., has projected a protest of this nature, we are inclined to believe that its testing members have been able to fulfill their own problem at home. Leave, therefore, the racial fight for the United States."

THE COUNTRY REPORTER
By LILLIAN WATTY
Love is a wanton, a bold consuming
air.
A wondrous phantom thine,
An unreckoning desire.
Something one can not hire and
dare not set
to some man's sweetest gift
to some woman's hell.
I don't want to live with it.
The drabest things in life won't cause the hips.
Lovers see only a mixture of rainbow hues.
Suddenly we are happy changings and we know not why
Till the mocking laughter of Cupid,
the clever spu.
In our ears and hearts,
Fingers can remember whisper
Waited down from the heaven above.
And joyously, deliriously happy
We are head over heels in love.

CALLING A WHITE MAN NEGRO IS NOT LIBELOUS
NEW YORK.—That it is no more libelous to call a white man a Negro than to call a Negro a white man, was the opinion expressed here Friday when Judge Dunne dismissed a $100,000 damage suit brought in a Brooklyn court by Emilio Salimon, boxer, against a local daily paper. Salimon brought suit as a result of a story in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, which told of his having been hired by Jack Sharkey and referring to him as a Negro boxer.
Not Libelous
In ruling that Salmon had no more cause for action than he would have been given the right and been mistakenly told that he was the paper, Judgus Dunn declared.

"To say that the words published by the plaintiff are libelous per se is to say that as a matter of law, a whole people, in no wise responsible for an accident of birth, are to be placed in a category signifying in the public mind some degree of obloquy or other degraded impulses."
The judge referred to the Federal Constitution in substantiation of his ruling, and declared that public policy, in so far as may be declared by law, does not sanction such a construction.
"If," he declared, "in error a man is denominated as a Negro, and thereby acquires per se a cause of action, with equal cogency, so far as the law is concerned, if a man, in error, is denominated a Caucasian or any other member of the human family, he should likewise be accused to recover for the mistake."

"And there was the symbolic religion of 'The Green Pastures.' Then, too was the comedy, not to mention the little bits of Anglestone 'inlandford' that added the nested zest.
"Sweet Charlot' starts off with a vital force. It immediately sends a audience into gales of the city, then comes to the grandeur of the schemeboy who intends to take the entire colored population back to Africa, on boats owned by his personally formed corporation.
When this slick, smooth-talking, finished real estate salesman finished his 'sales talk' he could have gone out into the audience, that was sitting on the edge of the seats, and sold a couple of shares in the New York Star.

"We remember Garvey when he came to this city, in the very boat he was going to sail to darkest Africa, and establish a strong base in the same mode of persuasion. And his meeting down at the old Musical Fund hall ended just as this staged affair ended in a near-riot of religious fervor.
"But Frank Wilson, playing the role of the 'smoothie,' was even much more facile than he was at the time being to serve a sentence in some goal. 'Wilson has the rare talent of his race. He can interpret the feelings he made him famous. His role in 'Sweet Charlie' will unhesitatingly establish him as a true contemporary of the now. He will be the man who made him famous.

How soon the critics have forgotten. America has seen a black actor with a white wife on a Broadway stage. America did watch night after night as she kissed the brawny hand of her stage spouse. America ran away with the stage, but America didn't would argue, but America didn't do anything else about it. Strange as it may seem, that actor was none other than the same Paul Robeson. Less than three years ago Eugene O'Nell, that unique and eccentric actor, contributed many departures from the orthodox to the modern theatre, presented "In Abraham's Bosom" at the Provinctown Playhouse with Miss Mary Blain (a white actress) portraying the part enforced by Jim Crow, enforced by Robeson.

Miss Blair's Opinion New York paper and a frank statement demanded a frank statement from her concerning playing opposite a Negro. Would she defend herself. What possible excuse could she give for consenting to play a role?
This is what she said:
"Why should I mind playing opposite a man not of my own race? As for my personal feelings, I never have any personal feelings about my leading men. Mr. Robeson is a brilliant actor who knows exactly what to do. I cannot understand why there is so much criticism about a white woman playing opposite a coloured woman. As for the question not involving half as much how Ella stood ill as we were about how Jim could stand Ella." Robeson is now playing in a film made abroad in the woman film, and is in love with him. This film will probably be barred from exhibition on these shores.

Mrs. Murphy, probably you know, had a lot of underwear buy in days, and you could buy in Pennsylvania and in Dolphin Street. I was working at this store, which carried an assortment of dry and all-round worker. "Now, the man who ran this store, when he waited. upon Mrs. Murphy, found a pair of other suits by her, but he told her that he would get them and send them to her. After Mrs. Murphy had gone, he took some other suits by her. He was rather clever in changing figures on marking tags. Then he gave me the suits and told me to take them over to Mrs. Mur-

Dance Halls
By LEVI H. JOLLEY
HELLO Everybody out there:
Each week at this same hour, we bring the Hokus Pokus program to you for your delightful pleasure or extreme boredom. Still yours truly, Levi Jolley, the announcer (who does cigerates that gives one a well-balanced voice) does his best to entertain you. These programs come to you over Station A-F-R-O, the voice of News, in Baltimore.
Here is a little—well, let's call it a poem.
I cigerates to sass one of the ticket-takers;
Now, his friends can view him
At the Undertaker's.
Jack, he holdly took them off
Before the first of May,
Now on a golden harp
He tries his best to play.
George blew a strong cornet.
Now on over his neglected grave
The daisies ever bloom.
Well, you see a little bit of everything slips in on this broadcasting program. In fact, I believe it was a slap on this program, but of this huge broadcasting system let me slip in as announcer. But since it is a fact, we will let that drop, with this little by-word, "One can never catch a cat or a woman will be home."
Believe it or Not
Several weeks ago, I received an invitation to attend a red hot dance. A letter accompanying the invitation told me the inside dope on just what was scheduled to take place. The letter stated that there were to be beautiful jumps, gorgeous ballroom dancing and read the invitation I found to my horror that the affair was being given by a set of old mads. Yes, I attended the dance, believe it or not. The young men's club gave a little specialty dance at the New Albert auditorium last Tuesday night. Now here is where the novelty came in. The club was filled with people were admitted, for twenty-six cents, while those who came alone were forced to pay twenty-five cents (five nickels or one quarter of a dollar) be admitted alone. The whole bimonthly club was filled. This club, known as the Sapphs, has been making great progress in the past few weeks. I believe that the club has made more progress in the last week than in the last six months. This is probably due to the executives.
It includes such energetic men as Dr. Chalmers Hairston, Isaac Dixon, W. L. Gamby and any five more whose names would mean a lot, but time and time do not permit naming. They have issued a program of the dances which the club is promoting. Now look this little thing over and see just what you think of it. Hopkins was here. Monday October 27, they will present Fess Willems, Others that follow are: Monday, November 3; Glick Webb; November 10; Glick Webb; November 10; Great Fletcher Henderson, himself. What could one expect or desire better in the way of dancing than those outfits? But I have omitted one that is the municipal and state favorite, the Ambassador with Percy Glassec, an obese sound. Now, Ike Dixon has assembled a squad of new players and he declares that he is back in the running, and when this broadcasting station gives its musical contest for all local or national December, they may emerge the victor.

Raid Box Office
Last Tuesday night the Dhame Pools gave a red hot fifty-one-cents-for-two dance at the New Albert Auditorium. A little before mid-night, agents from the office of the federal marshal raided the box company at 49.60, which was the night's receipts.
The reason for this was that they believed that Bob Matthews was one of the promoters of the affair, and Bob, it is learned, owes the government something like three dollars. Hollars had failed to declare certain things in his income tax form when it came to the promotion of pleasures and music.
Still, the government can be wrong, and it was shown to the same selection of the District Attorney that Bob is the owner of the Dhame Fools, and the sole owner, nor is he an official. So the money was returned to the club, Friday.
Audrey Neal, stabilemant of Fletcher Henderson; dropped in at the New Albert Auditorium on the sixth. He delighted the patrons and so you expect to read of his returning to request in the very near future.

They claim that they are so hot that it would be for my own comfort if I brought a three-hundred, pound cake of ice to sit on while I listened to them. But this orchestra leader, who is none other than that old friend mine, Harold Steepleman, out of touch, is considerable mention. The boys, who are all youngsters, play like they get a kick out of it, and by that the patrons are bound to do likewise. I predict a great place in the musical realm for the

It is better than civilian musical comedy in any one respect. There is a little difference in which Uncle Sam's far from fitting uniform helps to make it more eccentric.'

Autocratic Rule of Lafayette
Theatre Manager Hits
Snag as Singer Prepares
for Legal Battle.
BY GERALDYN DISMOND
If a vote were taken for the most unpopular person in Harlem, I doubt if anybody would even be a runner up with Frank Schiffman (white), manager of the Iafayette Theatre. His crassness, high-handed methods and chicanery have made him deservedly disliked by members of the theatrical professions and those who unfortunately had to come in contact with him.
As dictator of the advertising policy of the Lafayette and Lincoln Theatres, it became the Mount Basil Baptist Church; and the M and S chain of moving picture houses, including the Douglas, Roosvelt and Odeon, he has held a whip hand over not only the performers, but also the Harlem press which looted to Schiffman the bulk of its theatrical ad
More than one writer on Harlem newspapers has beenacked up for justly criticising the inferior shows at the Lafayette, the austroconservative equipment mall, and the robbins, and the insulting demeaner of Schiffman and his underlings.
That Trick Clause
Schiffman's business dealings with performers have long been the subject of backstage gossip. His procedure, according to report, was simple and without to pay the performer his price, have him rehearse, make excuses for not giving him his contract, bill him, let him open, and then spring the trap.
Instead of a bona fide contract, he is handed a salary, little "Armes," with a salary, far below his price, neatly in, and the bit of startling information that unless he signs, thereby registering his acceptance of the cut, he will be considered unsatisfactory, point, the messenger is his attention to the which, reads:—
The artist also agrees that if after the first performance, the management of the Lafayette Theatre, this contract shall be terminated by the payment of the artist of a pro-rata sum for the performer.
Many Can't Refuse
The fact that the average performer hasn't a sufficient reserve fund to refu. any salary, especially in the face of being barred from future employment by the Schiffman system, has given Schiffman overconfident and zealous. It is rumored that he tried his scheme on no lesser persons of the theatrical profession than George Dewey Washington, who quickly straightened him out by producing a Play-Pay Equity Contract; Johnny Travis Smith, a well-known Trise Smith, about whom the report was circulated that Schiffman had her rehearsing for two weeks before he discovered he couldn't use her. And that brings us to the present Schiffman scandal.

When Miss Hunter was approached, she gave $500 per week as her price, which was $100 less than she received for her week's engagement at the Gibson in Philadelphia. The best offer Mr. Winglass could make on behalf of Schiffman was $350 with her plano payer, and $250 without one.

The matter was referred to Mr. A. L. Burt of the Immense Thespian Agency, who advised her to accept. Schiffman agreed. He asked Hunter started rehearsing.

Pleased First Performance
In the meantime, Miss Hunter's act was called, and she was given a grand ovation b- the house. When she came off stage Jimmy Marshall met her with a message from Schiffman, saying he would have to cut her $100 or lose her act. And Mr. Marshall brought the house contract and suggested she read the aforementioned citation statue that she wasn't interested in the house contract and that her agents had drawn up a contract for her.
The next emissary to arrive on the scene was Emery Huchins, the new Lt. ayette Theatre manager. He brought an agreement and the information that she could sign, accepting the curse that Curley refused to sign and stated that according to her agreement, she would report for every performance. And she did.
Sunday night, Schiffman sent Sam Craig, the stage manager, to summon her to his office, at which time he advised her to stop reporting performance and causing them to ask his boss, and then asked him from his office and told Mr. Craig not to admit her backstage.
Goes to Court
Monday morning she consulted her lawyer, Ralph Warrick. He had Miss Hunter to report at the theatre on schedule time the entire week, and ask to be admitted. Her wardrobe and music remained in room. She is an Equity artist, and invests high in Harlem. It is expected that Miss Hunter will enter two suits—one to obtain her salary as agreed upon, and another for keeping her name on the front of the theatre and refusing to let her perform.

John of the division of higher education of the United States Bureau of Education were visiting Rust College, where she commissioned of six to survey Negro colleges in the United States. While checking a questionnaire in the room above her, the voice was so remarkable that they adjourned the room to hear more of the singing. A few hours later Cracken took upon himself, the responsibility of raising money to take Miss Elzy to Columbus, Ohio, for the examination of members of the department of music. Through physical and psychological examinations were given previous to the examination, the examinations and the audition were such that Miss Elzy remained for training under the supervision of Dr. Royal D. Hughes, head of the department of music, Ohio State University.

"MODELS" MORE CHIC THAN EVER THIS YEAR
Irvin C. Miller under Cork in Sixth Edition of "Brown Skin Models"
The latest edition of Irvin C. Miller, a bid for the plaudite of Baltimore theatre-goers at the Royal this week and was by no means disappointed. The laughs were loud the applause was weak the applause was weak the crimson as the expected naughtiness was presented in chunks. Running true to his usual form, the musical scores were picked beauties to the Royal backed by beautiful settings that displayed his shapely chorems to rare advantage. The musical scores were tuneful but by no means new, and the comedy suffered from also from the same lack of wit, though night the atronic themselves up to roars of laughter for no other reason perhaps thn they were happy to see their old favorites and situations were still alive and well.
Miss Blanche Thompson, without whom no "Models" should be shown in theaters, should be her roles that clicked on every word and wiggle, and Gallie deGaston cornered many laughs as did Irwin Cork, who donned cork for this occasion. Alto Oates scored heavily with her "blues renditions and the dancing peppers brought sales of applause." Geell Rivers and Flo Brown contributed their bit to make the whole singing and highly entertaining vehicle.

Toto regarded him speculatively.
Then she moved a little closer to him.
Hotshot got up yawning.

"You mustn't be careless of Bogo," Toto warned Carl. "He's one of these treacherous, blue-gumed guys. An' he's big enough to break you in pieces, honey."
Carl thrilled at her use of endearment to him.
"I'm not careless of him," he explained. "He just not afraid of him." He told her of his trouble with the man a few nights previously, and how Hotshot had saved him.
Toto smiled appreciatively. Then her voice became warm and caressing. "I've got to go now, Carl," she cooed. "But I'm glad I've met you."
Carl had removed his hat, and his hair swept down over his brow in a panic. "I'm in black eyes." Toto's hand pushed the recalcitrant locks back into place gently. She rose sinuously to her feet preparatory to moving away. Carl sprang up beside her.
"But, won't I—that is, can't I see you again?" he begged boyishly.
Toto's eyes narrowed with some unexplained emotion, as they traveled over the well-knit figure of the youth. "Maybe, honey," she suggest--"won't want know a woman like me." Carl laughed scornfully. "Why? he demanded. 'I can't think of any reason why I shouldn't be happy--very happy to know you.'" Toto's eyes lighted with quick hope, then she sighed deeply. "You are sayin' a lot when you say that, Carl," she warned. "I still say," Carl insisted. "And I want to see you agree-soon." The thick laughter of the woman rang out, a little bitter. "When these apes on this place get through tellin' you about me you'll wish you never seen me," she cried. "If you had ever been in this country much you'd have heard of me already. Why chile, I'm known almost everywhere . . ." "All I know is that you're: beautiful," Carl told her, deeply moved. "All I care about is that--you are you love you!" The impulse shook him to the roots of his belly.
"I'll be seenin you." Toto called back to him, as she moved gracefully away toward the woods. Carl took a few hasty steps after her. "Please don't think I'm fresh," he begged as he stood at her side again. But I—don't tell you to go to away when telling me that I'll see you again." "Oh, you will," the woman assured him enigmatically. "Don't worry about that." "But when?" he insisted.

Is she your. woman—I mean, your girl?
She looks like she'd like to kill me!
Before Carl could the woman an moved away, her deep-throated laughter floating back to him like the call of a bird. Uncertainly he made his way back to the wagon.
"Toto don't lose me to all," Elim went on, attentively to herself, but loud enough for the winger to hear. She came close to him, laying her hand on his arm. "You won't think bad of me if I tells you sompil' Mistah Carl!" she asked, her eyes pleadingly on him.
**Gossip About Toto**
Lost in the tumultuous maze of emotion created in him by the fascinating woman with the startling grey eyes, the youth looked up sharply at the ivory-skinned girl. "What did you say?" she asked dazedly, that Toto's a bad woman, she whispered. "All she wants is money—an' she's after evy man she real."
Carl's first urge was to tell the girl to mind her own business, but the evident sincerity with which she spoke caused him to merely reply, "Why, Elmira, what makes you think I care whether she is a bad woman or not?"
The girl misunderstood. "I know you want for her. They all do. I don't want you care for her. Get her claws inter you case—case I like yous, she added appealingly, "myself."
"What about Peco? Carl inquired slyly."
"Aw, Peco!" Elmira threw the word out disgustedly. "He ain't nothin in my life, gonna quit him." She added hopefully.
"Better hang on to him, so far as I'm concerned," Carl told her with calculated frankness.
"Maybe you changes yo' min' some o' these days." Elmira predicted as she walked slowly back into the field.
That night Botshot again ambled up the stairs to the bar. It was shortly after dusk and the moonless sky was sprinkled with thousands of stars. As he walked the little man sang:
"My gal' got, got teeth like a lighthouse on th' sea;
My gal' got teeth like a lighthouse on th' sea.
Ar' when she smiles.
She throw them lights on me. . ."
He greeted Carl with a significant smile. "What cha say, ole not stuff?"
"Why hot stuff?" Carl asked, raising his head from his improvised account book. The Colonel's account books were opened.
"The fastest woman in New Orleans done made a play f you, thus why!"
His friend chirped.
Carl grinned, pleased in spite of himself, "Aw, she didn't make a play for me," he denied. "We, just talked a while."
"Talked, my foot! Not everybody in the fiel' knows that Miss Toto has done put her sign on you!"
"Well, I hope she has," Carl said slowly. "I think she's gorgeous—beautiful—lovely!"
"Well, we all knows that," Hotshot
admitted drily. "Howsumever, it taint her looks—" he halted significantly. "What do you mean?" Carl asked quickly. "You won' get mad at me?" Hotshot demanded. "Of course not." "Well, they all say that this yere Toto makes her money by playing men—you know what I mean." "Well?" Carl said the one word quietly. Hotshot seemed taken aback. He had expected his friend to exclaim in horror. "Don' thatmek no difference to you? You bin so dickty roun here 'bout th' gals I thought sho' you sho' wouldn't have no truck with a—a" "Don't say that word!" Carl cried sharply. Then he smiled. "What she is makes no difference to me at all, Hotshot," he explained. "And anyway, I won't be here very long, so what difference can what she is make to me?"
The little man shook his head as though pugged. "For a boy with so much schoolin,'" he muttered slowly, and with more serious than Carl had ever seen him display before, "you ain't got much sense nowh." "Meaning what?" Carl asked. "Well, when a woman looks at you like that one done today, and you look like a sick calf back at her, then sompin's sho' due to happen." "How did she look at me, Hotshot?" "She look at you like a mamma look at her boy chillen." Hotshot explained. Carl laughed. "Then her love would seem to be motherly," he scoffed. Hotshot shook his head vigorously. "Nawsuh!" he denied. "When a woman an look at you like that, she mean business. I knows boy." "You're pipe-dreaming." Carl told him, while deep inside himself he has a friend who he put great faith in his friend's understanding of the other sex.
"Well, envyways," Hotshot observed drilly, "I bet you a milton bucks you ain't leavin' here as quick as you figgers."
"I take that bet," Carl accepted with a laugh.
"Have you heard I'm your banker vili? " Hotshot inquired.
Carl shook his head ruefully. "I guess he's forgotten me or something. I haven't had a line from him." He brightened. "But I have had a couple of letters from my girl in Chicago." "what she sayin'?" Hotshot asked interestedly. "Oh, nothing much. Just says she hopes I'll get out of all this all right and that I'll hurry back to Chicago. I told her in one of my letters that she needn't worry about my failing for any of the girls on this plantation. But if I don't hurry up and get away from here,—I'm afraid I will fail now!" Hotshot snorted. "You done fell for her like a ton o' brick." III. Later that night Carl sat outside of his cabin half dreaming in the fragrant darkness. The moon was up, and through the black treacy of the branches it cast golden shiffs of radiance on his ground. It was mid-summer and all of the growing things of the earth gave forth their magic odors in rich profusion.
From the direction of the scrunchin' grounds drifted the muted throb of the banjos, and the rhythmic harmonies of velvet-voiced singers. The glorious beauty of the night was made a mournful sound music made a mournful ache in Carls' heart. He thought with a sharp longing of the strange woman he had met that day, and had he known where he was, or whether he would have come to her at once.
Sighing, he arose and entered the house, to lie wide-eyed on his narrow bed. Now he thought only of Toto, not at all the cool Antinette and Chicago. He tried to tell himself that he must not lose sight of his final objective, even for a minute, but it did not. He began by basement and grey-enchantment seemed to be tightening around him with an inexorable certificate.
He was awakened from his dreamy state by a soft rapping at his door. Startled, he leaped from his bed, then called, "Who is it?" Without answering, slim figure entered Toto, and his heart leaped with quick jubilation. With a single bound he sprang across the floor and enfolded the figure in his arms.
"Oh, Mistah Carl," Elmira's voice
"I didn't expect you to..."
said, "I didn't expect you did." Carl released the girl instantly. "I'm sorry, Elmira, the step, stepping back. "I didn't know it was you"
"Oh!" The one word from the girl seemed weighted with hurt. "I didn't know you was expectin' nobody." "I wasn't, least of all," Carl explained lamently. "Well, now you here, you sn't gon' know you are you?" Elmira asked softly. She came closer to Carl. "I think you'd better go," the man told her. His heart was still pounding wildly, but he was keenly disappointed that his visitor was Toto. "You may be in trouble." "Well, I'm sho' not in no danger from you!" Elmira retorted point-
Nettled, Carl cried, "Don't be too sure!"
The girl gripped up to him, and with a like motion, her silm arms went around his neck. Her body was soft

Stories of the past are known to be given in the growth rings of trees, but until recently the code was so well guarded that it could not easily be deciphered.
The history of the world is written in the trees. Science is just now learning how to read the language of these tree secretaries of Nature.
Scientists working on the problem have now been able to check against their records as found in the trees, the records of history, and thus they are able to obtain an accurate knowledge as to the unique language of the trees.
Dr. Andrew E. Douglass, of the University of Arizona, made a long and palmstaking study of twenty-five great pines which grew in the arid region of northern Arizona. This species proved to be particularly suitable to his purpose, for in its annual rings the soft, rapidly-growing, white tissues of spring are sharply distinguished from the hard, reddish layers formed later in the year, when conditions are less favorable and cells become lean and fascinated.
After carefully measuring the thickness of every ring in the trees, making some 10,000 measurements in doing so, and fixing their dates, he examined his data in the light of the rainfall records available for the locality. The agreement between ring growth and rainfall was striking. Dr. Douglass also found evidence that the trees had responded to the climatic peculiarities of given years in essentially the same manner. That is to say, the rings of the date of 1851 were, in all the trees examined, unusually narrow while those formed in 1868 and again were unusually broad. Moreover, the period, 1851-1864, was recorded in the Arizona pines, was indicated by a group of rings so narrow that it would to pick them out on old shadows where no measurements had been taken.
Indeed, striking confirmation of the readiness with which identification can be made was had in the case of one stump which had been cut many years. By locating this particular group of narrow rings on and as yielding as cotton, and she pressed against him with fierce strength. Level of her smooth skin against his face seemed to ignite slow fires in the youth. Almost without his knowing it his hands began stroking her body. "I know'd you was human, baby, Elmra whispered unevenly. I know'd you'd love me." Slowly her mouth sought his. When their lips met Carl tightened his arms around her. They kissed with wild abandon for a breathless instant. Carl felt his blood flowing within him, and through the misty veil of his emotion the consciousness of what he was doing failed to make an impres-

section of the West.
Dr. Ellsworth Huntington, of Yale University, counted the rings of these great Sequolas. He examined the rings in more than 450 trees, rings in the stumps of 451 trees whose dates of cutting were known. Some of the trees were only a few hundred years old when felled. Nearly a hundred were close to two thousand years of age. Three had lived more than three thousand years, while the rings of the oldest registered 3210 years.

these venerable inhabitants of the past, Dr. Huntington says: "Huge as the Sequias are, their size is scarcely so wonderful as their age. A tree that has lived: five hundred years is still in its early youth; one that has rounded out one thousand summers and winters is only in full maturity; and old age, the three score years and ten of the Sequias, does not come for seventeen or eighteen centuries.
"In the days of the Trojan War and of the exodus of the Hebrews from Egypt, this oldest tree (the one measured) was a sturdy sapling with stiff, tricky foliage like that of a cedar, but far more compressed. By the time of Marathon the trees had lost the hard, sharp lines of youth and were thoroughly mature."
A Swedish scientist, Dr. Ernest Antevus, of the University of Stockholm, also counted the rings on many of the ancient trees and by different methods found that the work of the first scientist was correct.
These trees all showed the effects of weather changes. Sun spots, dry periods, wet weather, and other changes were all clearly indicated in the rings of the trees. Particularly the eleven and one-half year sun spot activity was evident, due to the changes of the weather and storms.
An Undying Love that Made Her a Prisoner!
By DONN BRYAN
There are some who remember to this day, although many have forgotten, the strange love story of the girl who was faithful to the man who kept her incarcerated in a dark and somber attic—the girl whose devotion was doglike and more steady than the loves of the present generation of quick thinkers and prompt doers. We have blue blaze caresses today, and suddenly dying remembrances. The modern generation forgets overnight because there are so many other things to remember.
Ola Orlington Mayfield mighton forever, and the bomb broke have passed for a woman of culture when the village sheriff, Henry Hudson, started in to wrest something this life, but instead she craved the companionship of crooks, dangerous gamsters, even killers, and avoided, whenever possible, even the slightest conversation with people in the so-called higher walks of life.
The town was for the most part colored, and there were but few white people. Hudson was a good looking colored man, with a brave
She was twenty-five when she ran away from home in Virginia and drifted to Missouri, something like a wild duck that followed the sky to a warmer climate, not in the way of weather, but in the way of being in danger, including two years in St. Louis gave her a crust that was hard to penetrate, a worldly air that was fascinating. She sang and danced and made merry without a thought of tomorrow, and there were times when her moods changed and she discussed Plato, Hesiod and Othello. She possessed an ability to stimulate educated minds. She she sang bolsterous songs beside an overworked automatic piano, and a while later in the same evening she sang selections from grand opera, consequently she kept everyone guessing as to her real identity. Pew women in this world have been born with such extraordinary gifts.
Jack Furgerson wanted to know where she had acquired the ability to perform so many tasks so well, and she had interested in the man, she told him.
They had met in a nicely appointed restaurant where the prominent colored people of the city frequented. Ola had not seen Furgerson before, and if he had seen her he could not remember what it was. The simple fact that the fashionable restaurant was crowded with patrons, leaving only one empty chair, the able Furgerson occupied—had he met with possible. He rose gallantly and invited her to be seated.
She did not decline. Ola couldn't have declined—He was the man. In fact, he was the first and only man in whom she had ever been interested; and it all sweoped down upon her like dust before a busy broom. It must have been a case of love at first sight for both parties.
Sitting in a room equally owned in decorated, with an expensive fan decorated with stencilling gems, their massive chairs partly concealed by confessional palms, they exchanged inconsequential greetings and then became serious.
Jack Furgerson accompanied her home. Ola, at that time lived in an exclusive neighborhood in an ornate house, was richly furnished with deep rugs, brightly polished fixtures, subdued lights and enormous green tile fireplaces. One could always depend upon Ola to have access to things like that apartment as well as hidden resources.
And she captivated Furgerson, made a serf of him, kept him fascinated until he was trapped from under the wall and began to thrust his own domineering personality forward.
"You've got to do what I tell you," he declared once. "I'm tired of listening to your baby prattle." By this time the chic and demure little Ola was helpless to resist him, her heart being long too interfered with what plans had been in her mind. "What do you wish of me, Jack?" she asked. He sat in silence for a moment. It was in December and the fire on the grate was comforting, so she there with his little cross. He was, quite shocked, young, quite good-looking. "I'm in a little trouble," he prefaced, having decided to make a clean liceman last night and I'm afraid breast of everything. "I shot a poetry they'll get my number if we stay here any longer. . . . What do you say we get out." He added at his interrogation. AbI they got out.
Next we find them, in a. small northwest Missouri village where Furgerson had bought out a restaurant, one of those small things thick with tobacco smoke and sometimes whiskey, fumes. Oh, with her piquant beauty, at the cash register made a hit with the masseuse of three could, too.
They had met in a nicely appointed restaurant where the prominent colored people of the city dined. Os had never seen Furgeson before and if he had seen her he could not remember where it was. The simple fact that the fashionable restaurant was crowded with patrons, leaving only one empty chair at a table the table Furgeson occupied—had made their meeting possible. He rose gallantly and invited her to be seated.
on forever, and the bomb broke when the village sheriff, Henry Hudson, started in to wrest something besides promises and engaging smiles from Ola.
The town was for the most part colored, and there were but few white people. Hudson was a good looking colored man, with a brave heart, neat in attire and a good conversationalist.
Ola knew Jack was watching him, knew he was jealous, and wondered what she ought to do. She eventually decided to request Hudson to leave her alone.
However, Purgerson was ignorant of the true situation and hired a pair of henchmen to beat up the officer. The plot was laid in the gambling parlor above the restaurant.
Ola must have looked through one of those peepholes in the doe that the job had been done, she stole to the tree, walking over the frozen road, where Hudson was tied and cut the ropes.
It was a bitter cold night, with a deep layer of snow and huge drifts. The sheriff might have, frozen to death if Ola didn't. rescued him. "I've saved you," she said, and now I want you to do something for me. Leave this town. They've got you tagged and your life's in danger." She returned to the restaurant and was confronted by the infuriated Purgerson. "I've heard you setting Hudson free because you love him," he snarled, "so come across with the truth. Did you tell him I killed that policeman." She shook her neck. They were in the back of the restaurant. He said that he didn't believe her. "You're in love with that guy," he exposulated, "and I'm going to fix you."
She did not protest when he seized her roughly and pulled her up the back steps. She was too much in love with him to protest against anything he did. Perhaps Ola had waited too long to fall in love, then again may be it was too early. He was for the first man to win it. They speak of dogs being one-man dogs. So she must have been a one-man woman. Her blood chilled when she caught a fleeting glimpse of his purpose. But she did not cry out. Took it calmly, with a hard line for a mouth, and wide fearless eyes. When he thrown up her head and crushed the uttered a few simple words: "I don't know why you're doing this, Jack. This room is full of rats and bleakness. It's no place for a woman. Please don't make me spend the night here."
He laughed, then crooked like an enormous bullfrog. "Spend the night here. Huh. You're going to stay a year. After that he went out and slammed the door.
For 365 days Ola stayed in that room—a prisoner of love, suffering alone, almost stark mad. There is no telling how long it would have gone on had not Furgerson been shot and killed in a dice game. They buried him before they found Ola up there in her dungeon, and his death. True. The one had trusted no one to her, he had brought her upstairs, and looked after her, but she didn't know he was dead. They found her in this dingy stile alone in solitary confinement. Like a prisoner sentenced to death, half dead, with glittering eyes, but she wasn't so mad she failed to understand that Jack was no more and told them to let her out with his dying breath. Then she made them take her to his grave—he had been buried the day of his death—and they had to drag her away from it. She never married. She maintained wife to her was close to the grave of the man she loved, conducting his business as expertly as he had done it. But she never married.
Those old people who tell this story, in their siphoned way, without emotion in their voices, their words dry, do not realize that they are. Telling the world's master learner that, when woman Ola, the dearer price for a dog than Ola, and remained faithful as a dog under severe gundire? Are there, are few, if any.

HACKERMAN'S
1731-38 Pennsylvania Ave.
NORFOLK, Va.—The four thousand grid fans who o strangled out of League Park here Saturday had many misgivings following a dispute over the validity of a score that gave Union University of Richmond, Va., a questionable victory over Lincoln University, after a hard fought battle.
The game was thrilling from whistle to whistle. Coach Bill Taylor and his squad waded the first to appear on the field of action followed by the teams under the charge of Coach Hulce. Both teams were created with great vocation.
The game was a nip and tuck affair until the third quarter, with each team battling doggedly for an advantage. At this period of the game Lincoln was fighting with its back to the wall on the Lions' 5-yard line. Both teams were alert and ready to strengthen in the contest. The Lions withstood the powerful rushes of the heavy Union players and held for downs.
Upon regaining possession of the ball, the Lions made a desperate effort to fight the ball with the front and stand on edge, the Lions, with their backfield back of their own goal line, signaled for the ball. The snap of the ball sent both teams charging and before the pikskin could be punted to safety an agile tacker was across the line and Harmon's kick was blown back safely, giving the fighter the game and boys two-point lead.
The Lions then started a march to even scores, and with the aid of heavy penalties, marched to the Panthers' 1-yard line. Here the Union won with the problem of holding the line.
The scrimmage ended in what the officials called a touch-back, while the Lions contended that they had scored a touchdown. Following the game, captain Jerry Harmon, of the Lincoln squad, a written statement from AFRO which explains the Lions' contention.
The two teams broke off relations six years ago because of disputes of an almost similar nature and it is regretted that this first game upon resuming competition should end "in illumination." Capt. Harmon's letter is published herewith:
"This article is written by me with due regard and respect for all officials in the C.I.A.A. Nevertheless, I must express my condolences to the decision rendered in the Union-Lincoln game which took place Saturday, October 11, in Norfolk.
"Aided by several penalties for holding by Union, coupled with a few off-tackle plays, Lincoln was able to place the ball on Union's one-yard line. Our quarterback called upon me to carry the ball over through right tackle, and just as I hit over the goal line, I juggled the ball, being downed. When the mass had been cleared, I had the ball a foot over the end zone.
"Referee Gibson asked Umpire Benjamin Washington his decision. Mr. Washington ruled that I had fumbled the ball on the one-foot line and the ball was given by Mr. Washington after hesitating almost two minutes. Referee L. U. Gibson had to ask him four times before he stammered a decision. Referee Gibson immediately ruled a touch-back and gave Union's ball on the two-foot line. "If I had fumbled the ball on the one-foot line as Mr. Washington stated, according to the rules, it would have been Union's ball on the one-foot line. Also, if I had fumbled, it would have had up from underneath the pile with full possession of the ball as I did. "What I would like to know, when Mr. Benjamin Washington ruled Union's ball on the one-foot line, a touchback, giving Union the ball on the twenty-ward line?
Should Retire
"To be frank and honest about the whole matter, the ball had never been out of my possession. Umpire Washington, in the opinion of many of my players, is luke-warm and does not want to be a teammate, will jeopardize his influence with any CLAA institution. Still, I contend that Referee L. U. Gibson was in the act of declaring the play a touchdown when Umpire Washington rushed up stating that I had fumbled the ball. "Personally, I have never been a player with Mr. Benjamin Washington has done his bit in athletic endeavors years ago. In many instances he has warned players for illegal play and yet has neglected to penalize. For years he has served as headlinesman, but with the many changes in football as a player from football officiating for the benefit of the spectators and for those officials who would have to carry out his questionable decisions."

Howard Coach Boasts that He'll Not Lose Another Game this Season
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Howard University Bisons partially avenged their troubling of last season at the hands of Cincinnati. When they held their rivals to a scoreless in their opening game here, Saturday. With three green backfield men the Bisons got away with a few first downs, and at no time was their goal.
The new Bison attack provided the big thrills of the game. Taking the kick-off on their 20-yard line, the Thundering Herd, through a hole, and the enemy's one yard line where the Bulls held. Williams, Smith's left half back, kicked out of danger for a distance of 60 yards. Again the Bison backs snap, bringing the ball to the Bulls' 20-yard line.
Joe Drew, All-American tackle of 1922, playing his first time in the back field, was outstanding star, accounting for five first downs. Sapping Marshall, Howard's All-American half back, whose uncanny passing never missed, the mark.
Two freshmen, Percy White at quarter, and Perry Howard at half, were other semifinals. Captain Mack and Lee at ends never missed a pass.

In the second half Dunbar scored its first and only touchdown from the punt and made a near pass to Queens, who skirted the right end for a score. Dispute as to whether the pass was illegal, but the score stood. In the last quarter was a punting duel with the ball mostly in Dunbar's territory. Miens, Queens and Crown starred for Dunbar, while C. Brown, F. Brown, Handy and Crown were the bright lights for Bowie.

Rivero May be in N.Y. "U"
Line Against Dartmouth
NEW YORK. — A dark-skinned youth, Manuel Rivero, on Columbia's varsity eleven, may get his chance. His Columbia will need all of her deceptive offensive weapons against Dartmouth at Hanover in a desperate attempt to rain her first victory since 1899. Rivero has been showing up well in practice and success both before and on the squad. Coach Lou Little has contemplated making him a quarterback, not known at this time, whether he will enter the first lineup as steersman. Columbia will engage Brown University; on November 15, at Providence, he will engage a regular berth as half back. Mahood did not get in the lineup Brown defeated Princeton 70.

Johns Hopkins Afraid of Color
When the Johns Hopkins University officials drew the color line last week and refused to permit Pastor Qallo, Cuban halfback on the Upsala College football squad, to play they merely followed out the policy of the institution. Although boasting of superiority, the inference is that Negroes are barred because they feel or excel their "superiors."
When the John Hopkins University line last week and refused to permit P back on the Upsala College football squared out the police institution, superintendent Justice is the Negro equal or excel the "superiors." Quallo had already been refused din
is Hopkins University office refused to permit Pastor G College football squad, to play at institution. Alliance is the Negroes are "superiors." been dressed refusal is
Quallo had already been refused dining service with the squad and sleeping quarters at the Knights of Columbus Club. But was Quallo surprised? Not yet. It remained for the officials of the great Christian Johns Hopkins to stun the already bewildered youth. Shortly before the game, the officials requested that Quallo remain on the sidelines and not don his togs.
There may be whites who think nothing of Negroes competing in events supposed to be for All-Americans, and are just as surprised as Quallo. On the other hand, there may be those who are disgusted by the racial bars in athletics. Though discouraging, it is amusing to note how a dark-skinned athlete can throw the bigots into a quarry.
It is needless, say, such a policy practiced in any school is nauseating. The Negro must continue to suffer the sting of Jim Crowism until fair-minded men, unfeared of their supremacy, replace the bigots.
While much criticism is heaped upon Hopkins, Upsala College should not be permitted to go uncensured. To dictate to an invited guest what he shall do and who shall play on his team is a breach of hospitality and should have been resented by the visitors to the extent that they should have refused to compete against them. To accept the action of a bigot without protest is to condone what he has done.

WILBERFORCE VICTOR OVER N.C. STATE
WILBERFORCE VICTOR OVER N.C. STATE
Bulldogs Crush Tartheel Eagles, 39-0, as big Green Machine Ramps
By W. I. GIBSON
WILBERFORCE, Ohio. — With substitutions by both teams frequently punctuating the game, and with a generous sun making the air suitable for the game, Wilberforce University mothered the N.C. State College Eagles by a 39-0 score here Saturday.
The victory, a confirmation of pregame done, afforded an excellent opportunity for the Bulldogs to test some of their untried material. The Caroliners put in a strong fight the inexperience of their members and the fact that they were outweighed by a veteran team minimized their chances for anything other than continual play on the defensive.
The Eagles never proved dangerous, their greatest scoring threat coming in the third quarter when Austin, their ace end, made a stirring 20-yard run to mid-field. The visitors made only four first downs during the entire game, one of these coming as the result of a penalty while Wilberforce made twenty-three.
Nevertheless the play of Palmman on the Holmes, Bryant and Brandon on the line and the performances of Booth Malone and Strough in the backfield gave the Ohio Gridders something to think about.
Wilberforce lost fifty yards in penalties, 45 of these being for off-side nav. The deceptive attack of the Builders freemulted the Eagles and with the live holding in the pinches and one-inch blue holes when on the defensive, the O'llions had little to do besides pick their open-ings.

Bluefield Tops Virginia State, C.I.A.A. Champions, 12 to 7
Big Blue Machine Crushes Heavy Petersburg Eleven in Hard Fought Game.
PETERSBURG, Va. — After rushing the oval to the 2-yard line of Big Blue Machine in Bluefield Institute in the first quarter of a contest here Saturday, the Orange and Blue warriors of Virginia State failed to score in what appeared to be a one-sted loss at 12-2.
The infliction of a 15-yard penalty at this point on the Statesman relieved the Blues who held opponents off the field and kicked the ball to the mid-field.
Luck was with first one team then the other until Jeffries, Bluefield left, snagged a pass from the ozone and placed it. It was over the goal line in the second quarter. The period ended with the score 6-1.
In the second half the two teams fought doggedly for a break. The break came for the Blues in a few moments of play when Lennon, the Blues' right half, slipped off State's right side on a reverse and trotted 35 yards unmolested to the goal. The try for extra point was unsuccessful. State now received the oval from Bluefield and advanced it deep into the enemy's territory by a series of line plunges and short passes. However carried the ball the necessary 15 yards for the goal on the next play, an off tackle smash, for State's only touchdown. The extra point was awarded State because the enemy was off-side.
The fourth and final quarter, found State still plugging along trying to overcome the lead of the Bluefield aggregation, but the "jinx" that has been trailing them once more crept up and overtook them as Scott was hindered in his effort to grasp a pass near the enemy's goal line. A protest of interference was loded, but the protest was not recognized by the officials, thus the chances of a touchdown and victory went aglimmering into the distance.
Graves, Lennon and Jeffries were the outstanding men for Bluefield; and Bounds. Howe, Dabney and the whole line was outstanding for State.

The Morgan College Bruins
romped to another Conference
victory when they
tackled the tough eleven
from A. and T. College and
sent them home with an 18-7
lacing after their clash at the
Morgan Stadium Saturday at
afternoon before an enthusiastic
grandstand.
The contest was replete with thrills as the Bears displayed unusual prowess and chalked up their eighteen points in the first half of the game. Big Tom Conrad, Morgan's plugging fullback, accounted for all of the scores, aided by hard hitting and machine-like backfield. Burt of the Aggies played a single-handed game in the second half and tore through the Bruins for consistance. He almost completely reversed the order of things as a rejuvenated pack of Bulldogs raced upon the field after the first half and sought to turn the tables on the Bears.
Although they played the Morgan gridders off their feet in the second stanza, the Aggies found themselves against a stone wall when they sought to carry the oval across for a second touchdown from Morgan's one-yard. Wilson, Williams also found many thrills for the spectators by their running, plunging and defensive playing.
THE GAME PLAY BY PLAY
Captain Bell of Morgan won the loss and selected to be the first player to blind the sun in his back. The first thrill of the game came when Conrad scored but on the next seriumpage the same play was repeated and Conrad speared. Conrad scored and the goal for Morgan's first touchdown, after only ten minutes of play. The next pass for Morgan was short pass for the extra point. Score, 6-0.
Bear's Romp Again
Morgan again kicked to the A. and T. 10-yard line, but Dillard was out. Morgan after a broken run. Failing to gain by line bucks, and losing ten yards on an attempted trick play, Morgan was placed by punting, the ball being placed in play on Morgan's 30-yard line after going out of the field. Williams eluded interference on the right and brought the ball into the Bulldogs' trailing field, plowed through the 7 yards. Morgan was permitted 15 yards for unnecessary roughness, but then the second touchdown after Wilson had dared around the right end for 20 yards. Williams was able to get the ball back before he was halted, and Conrad raced through right tacks the remaining distance for Morgan's second score. Score. The Agnes received the Bears punt on the right end for 20 yards. Morgan's ballback, got three yards through right tacks; Dedery added 7 around right end for 20 yards, but the ball was gained but a loss of 8 yards followed when Burt was trapped in the rear end for 20 yards. Morgan's 15-yard line, Williams returning the ball to his 25-yard marker. Conrad chipped 15 yards to the right end after a pass and gave a dis
of 50 yards to the bear the their third touchdown. A line back for the extra point failed. Score, 18-0. The ball being the pick-off, the ball being placed in play on its own 90-yard line. Morgan recovered when the visitors triumphed; a triple pass play gave the ball to the end and Hicks contacted a short forward end and Hicks contacted a short forward end line before he was halted. T. 10-yard line before he was halted.
Second Half
Bears tried two successive passes, but each was incomplete and they were penalized 5 yards. When Conrad failed to bulge the Aggs in a left tackle play, he booted. The ball was placed on the A and T. 10-yard line.
Bert split the line for a 7-yard gain. Wills crepped off 4 yards for a Tarheel first down. Continuing their line hammering, the Aggs gained another 14 yards in a trick play.
Burt tore through the Bears' line for another 7 yards and a first down. Offered little resistance. Burt plunged through again and faced 35 yards for the Tarheel's 7-yard toownd. Jowers's 10-yard in the extra point was perfect. Score, 18-7.
Wilson received the Aggle kick-off on his 10-yard line and raced back to his 30-yard marker. Hicks dived 5 yards through the center. After falling to move the Aggle center, the plunge, around ticked 4 and T's 30-yard line. Sending two smashing blows against the Morgan tackles, the Aggies registered another first down as the third quarter ended.
Burt gained three yards around the left end, and with another plunge landed the ball on the Bears' 20-yard line for a first down.
The game now stood Burt against the Bears. He gained 15 yards through tackle, and spills the center and placed the ball on Morgan's 5-yard line.
Morgan called for time out as her goal was hit by the ball. The ball was carried across her goal line and brought back to the one-yard marker. The ball was returned to the score. But the Morgan line held. The Angies lost 3 yards when the ball was fumbled. The threat on the Morgan goal was over when the Angies grabbed the second time and Hicks Morgan grabbed the third time. Morgan dash down the field that was halted by the whistle. Conrad kicked the 50-yard line. Score: Morgan 8, A, & A.

It was Johnnie who did the tying up this time. He held Henry close and let fly with his right a series of blows that sounded as if he were punching a bag. All of the blows landed on Dorsy's head and body to blow the sound of the kid's kidneys that could be heard all over the stadium. It must have hurt the lad some for he immediately closed in and held on like a drowning man. They were parted and then Dorsy began to hammer with his left hand. Ribs and lefts, hooks and jabs, lobs and uppercuts. but there was Larkins grinning at him from behind battered arms that received the efforts of his assault. Infuriated, Dorsy set himself to greater efforts, but what was the use? Larkins just straightened up and began to face as he had done in the previous round. The boy had recovered and was just as fast with that left as he had been before he received that smash over the kidneys. That left baffled Dorsy. It was doing him no injury, but just seemed to blurred one's vision.
Until now Dorsey had landed but few blows, but each was a crusader. Johnnie, on the other hand, had simply "peppered" him with light left jabs and right hooks that would not have narmed a baby. Henry sneeed that he must be able to defend himself with narmed blows, but now seemed beyond him. At least, it was more than he could decide during that second round, for he continued to keep his eyes on the glove of a retreating Larkins. (When I say, "eyes on the glove," I mean that literally.) He kept after his man with such persistence that I almost knew for a certainty that sooner or later he would land a blow that would so weaken the lad that he would be unable to keep up that fanning, tapping, tantalizing left hand work. Again the bell announced the close of a round and again the fans gave approval of the splendid work of But if he could not help he would have an opportunity to applaud. I was more than glad to have a chance to rest.
One does not realize just how careful a referee must be in order to see the best of a fight. If he is not excused, he may not be able to see after one of the men dodges a vicious swing. Besides, keeping up with the retreating and ducking or Larkins every time Dorey let go with one of his famous right swings, had to learn two new rules: to duck, dodge and run.

Sentiment and Socks
Young Larkins was on his toes and backing away while he just allowed his glove to come in contact with the face of Dorsey.
It is a little too slow to put it that way: Dorsey was aggressively after his man every second of the first round. Larkins was keeping just out of range and applying his fast snapping left to the face constantly. Just the leather of the glove landed and until today I don't believe a hair inside the glove was disturbed by those headlight jaws by those headlight as would almost a light tap. Several times Dorsey brushed it aside with his left or right, but it was right back in position again and doing its dusting as it had begun to do.
When the bell rang for the end of the round, I was glad, for I had walked around that ring so much that I was beginning to get dizzy. At the sound of the gong, Young Larkins grinned at Dorsey and went coolly to his corner. Dorsey on the other hand, gave him a kiss. While others who knew him might not have given evidence of their feelings, I am sure that there were some sound of the final gong. I was the most exhausted. In fact, I was almost too fatigued to raise the hand of young Larkins.
Johnnie was a little particular how I raised his hand. I wondered why but when I saw the welts and bruises, I was in sympathy with him. His left arm was lumpy and through the brown the red of his blood showed. Dorsey on the other hand, did not have a scratch, his eyes just ran water from the rubbing they had received.
After this bout a certain sorrow befell the sporting world, Gans died. Hereford, his manager, wept as he had lost his dearest relation. And while others who knew him might not have given evidence of their feelings, I am sure that there were some
You have heard a crowd yell when its favorite wins; you have heard the mad surge of the sea on a rocky coast; but you have never heard unless you were there—the equal in novation given the same that the uniform their corners. The unprejudiced blood of the sport men realized then that a pair of blacks were giving them the best in boxing that many had ever seen or hoped to see. They realized then that Gans was tutoring a man to fill his shoes as lightweight champion of the word; they were conscious of the fact that Al had given them their money's worth in a semi-final even if the main bout should prove to be a fizzle. The gong! Dorsey was upon Larkins before the lad could get out of his corner. Two stinging rights—one to the body and one to the head sent the young fellow to cover. And such a cover would not land on its body or head until he had successfully worked close enough to clinch.
If you have followed on this far, you will know that I am about to tell you of the third, fourth and last two rounds. I merely have to say that the expected did not happen and of the three men in the ring at the

sound of the final gong, I was the most exhausted. In fact, I was almost too fatigued to raise the hand of young Larkins.
Johnnie was a little particular how I raised his hand. I wondered why, but when I saw the weils and bruises, I was in sympathy with him. His left arm was lumpy and through the brown the red of his blood showed. Dorsey on the other hand, did not have a scratch, his eyes just ran water from the rubbing they had received.
After this bout a certain sorrow befell the sporting world. Gans died. Hereford, his manager, wept as he had lost his dearest relative. And while others who knew him might not have given evidence of their feelings. I am sure that there were none who did not regret the passing of the craftiest general who ever resigned a troe.
From afar and near people came to pay their respects to the clay that had been champion of the world as it lay in state in an edifice known as Kings Hill. Gans was dead. Some have felt as badly when a ruler of the land has passed, but, I think, none have felt more broken-hearted than did the sport-lover public by the grim reaper was cast as dead. From what could be learned of his doings during those mourning days, one is led to believe that young Larkins actually became stupefied with grief. He refused food for two days, and it is said, he sat and moped around his home during the entire calamity. (Remember I do not vouch for this part of the story. This is only a neighborhood report and as best these are not absolutely reliable.) One of the type of women who goisip across the fence was heard to say that the lad simply went away to skin and bone and was surely going into decline.
Now, this is what I learned from Johnnie when he entered the ring for his next fight. The lad had not felt much like fighting after Gans died; it seemed to him as if his fighting spirit spilled out of Gans's death. That seemed more plausible and from the appearance of the boy as he stripped down for action, I am inclined to turn a deaf ear to the rumor of his going into decline. Here, where the fight occurred when Johnnie learned just what Gans meant when he had grunted that the kid would learn some day. This event was nearly two years later, it is true, but the lesson was being taught just as if Gans were there to teach it—and I dare say, more forcibly than to muster so young and content with himself.
If the reader will remember it will be recalled that Johnnie had not lost a fight since he first entered the squared circle under the observation of the police that he had no knockouts to his credit. His new trainer must have called his attention to this little fact just before he started him in this bout for the colored featherweight championship of the South with Ray Johnson. Johnnie began a new style of fighting for his new tutor. Until this bout I had seen the little fellow rock but one man; on this night that fast left of his shot as usual but when it landed, it landed hard and hard and head bobbed back like a broken enamel. It was a New Larkins and the crowd was with him—it had never been against him, but tonight that jab was doing the damage that the admirers had long to see it do. He would jab and get away and take a blow blows on his arms and shoulders.
Twice during the first few rounds the champion's terrible right crashed on his jaw and twice did the knees of Johnnie sag. Twice the crafty youngster slipped into a clench and hung on was the man who, in the beginning of his career, had set out to beat the man who had beaten Gans.
It was plainly evident that there was something wrong. Never before had it been so hard, could it be recalled when he had to "dog" it. Then too his hitting while harder was not so often as it had been in former bouts; his defense which had been well near perfect seemed to have faded in part for it was only occasionally the quarterback against head and body attack. Yes, there was something wrong about Johnnie.
y In an instant it was evident that he was doing things he had never done under the instructions of Gans. That big black trainer in his corner was telling the kid what to do, and the kid, like a little fool, was following him. Mixing with Ray Hawkins, the hardest hitting champion the colored folk of the South had produced! But there were the instructions given to Larkins and the idiot idiot was swapping blows and nearly getting his head knocked off by that terrific right of Hawkins. Oh! for the right of Hawkins, he could put that second out of the house! Four rounds passed with young Larkins showing us that he was still a boxer and more—he could take punishment as well as give it. Even though most of us were critical of the manner in which his chief second was handling him, none could help but admire him for as least bringing him to life as displayed before—courage and an ability to give more punishment than he took.
During the minute's rest I formed the conclusion that the bout would go the limit and Larkins would receive the decision on points. So far he had closed one of the champions' hands and had not yet made the other. And Johnnie was still going fast and strong and showing the defender a few things about boxing; why should he not go the distance and get the decision? There was a chance for a knockout but the little fellow had not put anyone to sleep yet; would he do it now?

With the merging of the Southeastern and the Collegiate Conferences last fall has been some reason to the member of the Southern Conference.
The following schools are members of the Southern Conference: Alabama State Teachers College, Alabama State University, Atlanta, GA; Edward Waters College, Jacksonville, FL; Florida A. and M. College, Tallahassee, Fla.; Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn.; Knoxville College, Knoxville, Fla.; Jackson, Tennessee; Miles Memorial College, Birmingham, Ala.; Morehouse College, Atlanta, GA.; Morris Brown University, Atlanta, GA.; Taladega College, Taladega, GA.; Tuskegee University, Tuskegee, GA. It is interesting to note that the following schools, Clark University, Knoxville, Morehouse, Morris Brown, Taladega and Fisk have had athletic organizations since 1912; hence it is not surprising that year after year the games of the Southern Conference are bitterly contested and arouse interest among the four universities, Tennessee and surrounding states.
Having been so closely connected with the destiny of one of the schools for the past few years, we will largely devote to news concerning the activity of this group of schools. Howe. . . X shall be glad to give space and notice to the news in this section as well as members of the Southeastern-Atlantic Conference, which includes teams from S.E. Georgia and South Carolina. The writer at 841 Fair Street, S.W., Atlanta Ga., on Monday morning following the games played in order to insure inclusion for the current week.
Morris Brown Defeats Ala
State in Upset 90-Yd. Run
Coaches Lewis and Johnson of Alabama State Teachers College, relying on comparative score, made the mistake of starting their second team against Morris Brown last Saturday, with the result that Williams, half-back of Morris Brown, on an exchange of punts received a kick on his own ten-yard line and spun and twisted his way 90 yards for a touchdown, the only score of the game.
Although Ala. State rushed in their first string team, which averaged approximately 180 lbs. p: man. Morris Brown held on to their slim lead with a wonderful display of defensive football. Five times during the game the Alabama's threatened their goal and once by the aid of a recovered fumble from the 1-yard line attempted to cross the last white marker on four consecutive tries at the line but the Wolverines refused to give even one yard in that crucial moment.
Hence Morris Brown won the first conference game, showing a wonderful spirit and air-tight defense which makes them favorites to finish well up in the conference races.
Tuskegee Beats Champions
Tuskegee Beats Champions
The Long brothers came out of the southwest with the first win of the Tuskegee Tigers the first half, fell victim to the superior reserve power in the fourth quarter and lost 26-0. Stevenson was the particular shining star for Tuskegee, relieving the team with two long runs of 45-*nd* 55 yards each; the first a particularly clever piece of broken field running and the other a brilliant cut-back which gave ample proof of his footing. Tuskegee scored her first touchdown at the beginning of the second quarter after interference by a Wiley player on a forward pass had given them first down inside of the end zone. She added the extra point with a place kick. Wiley immediately elected to receive the ball and by an interference with a forward pass on the part of Tuskegee found themselves in possession of the ball on Tuskegee's 24-yard line.
After a brilliant offense of end runs and forward passes, from this point they carriert them to tuskegee in touskegee line and to uskegee line. On two other occastions they were within Tuskegee 10-yard line but could not cross the goal line. At the time of the last chance for victory vanished when Robinson. Tuskegee end, intercepted a fast forward pass and ran it for a touchdown. Wiley team continued to fight, slowly and surely they were forced back and two other touchdowns were scored in the fourth quarter. Franklin, guard and captain, stood out above any man on the field in defense and when he retired late in the fourth quarter from the game, and foe gave him a rousing cheer.
Wiley's offensive was interesting, in that the quarterback barked the signals as of old and most of their plays were behind a balanced line, although the backs had a box formation of either side. Tuskegee still relying on her unbalanced line either a single wing or double wing back.
Morehouse Defeats
Knoxville
Morehouse extended their winning streak to two games by defeating Knoxville last Friday. The Morehouse team made quite a work of defense, knocking touchdowns by the aid of some good forward passing by Kelley and receiving by Jones and Evans, interspersed with end runs by Edmunds and line bucking by Mavs, fullback. They added one more in the second inning, and Edmunds half found a different Knoxville team on the field and scored two touchdowns during this period, holding the Maroon Tigers and as the game ended Red Jones grounded a Knoxville pass near the goal line, allowing the touchdown and at least tied the score for the valiant Knoxville team.
Talladega Defeated by Alabama A. and M
The Ala. A. and M. team from Hunstville, Ala. under Coach Green, h 19, its second conference scalp to their belt when they defeated Talladega in their opening game, although not a member of the conference seemed determined again to show that they have conference ability. Talladega playing her first game of the season showed a beakful material at a line which was unable to give it a chance to function.

Boston Baked Beans
Two cups dried beans, 1½ pound salt pork, 4 tablespoons molasses, 1 teaspoon mustard, if desired, 1½ teaspoons salt (depend on saltiness of pork), Onion, if desired.
Soak the beans overnight in cold water and then cook them gently until they are soft but not mushy. Score the rind of the salt pork and put half of the pork in the bottom of the bean pot. Add water and polished beans, mix them and other seasonings with a little hot water, and pour over the beans. Add just enough more water to cover. Place the rest of the salt pork on top, cover pot, and cook the beans for 4 or 7 hours. Add a little hot water from time to time to replace that which cooks away and is absorbed by the beans. Keep the lid on the bean pot until the last hour of cooking. Then uncover and allow the beans and pork on the top to brown.

Beat eggs slightly. Add sugar, salt milk diluted with water and vanilla Line buttered custard cups with shredded cheese cups and sprinkle with nutmeg. Set in a pan containing sufficient hot water to come almost to top of cups. Bake in a slow oven during. Bake in a knife inserted comes out clean.
Household Hints
To continue using the lid of a ketle after the knob has come off, merely slip a screw through the hole with the head on the top of the knob on the protruding end. This knob will not get hot and can be renewed easily when it has become soiled.
To clean embroidery which has become soiled, put in cold water, blued but not kept, and add to water the juice of one milk for about two minutes in cold water, and then dry in the open air.
Use grease instead of butter. Cake will stick to buttered tins, but not when well greased with lard.
The best way to boil soiled clothing and allow them to remain until they have boiled at least ten minutes. They should be stirred occasionally with a stick kept for the purpose.
A box for the feet of a child, placed on the floor of the automobile, a pillow for him to sit on and another for him to comfort and keep him quiet during a long motor trip.
A garden hose used to rinse heavy article, such as blankets. is very handy, and makes the work much lighter. Blankets in rinsed water will lighten the surface and will dry without wrinkles. The nap is not crushed either, as no ironing is required.
Every person should have at least two tooth brushes and should use them alternately. This gives each brush a chance to dry thoroughly and regain its stiffness before being used again.
Cleanse the face night and morning with a good cold cream treatment. This will meet the skin soft, and no trouble will be experienced in making the powder adhere to the face.
Quick Turnip Soup
Four cups milk, 2 cups grated raw turnip, ¾ teaspoon milk, 2 cups grated raw turnip, ¾ teaspoon milk, 2 tablespoon butter, ¾ teaspoon parsley, cut very fine. Heat the milk in a double boiler, add butter and butter, which have been well blended, then the turnip, the onion, and the salt. Cook until the turnip is tender, or for about 10 minutes. Sprinkle the parsley in the turnip. With this soup, serve tucked cubes of bread or croutons. An easy way to make croutons is to spread slices of bread on a baking sheet, each slice into strips, then into cubes. Brown the cubes in the oven.

The P.A.L. Tries a Noble Experiment
If you read your newspaper last week you probably learned that a group of public spirted women in conjunction with the P.A.L., which is waging a program for social betterment, will demonstrate how it is possible for women to live comfortably on $25 a week.
This is a noble experiment and since prohibition, the greatest of all "noble experiments" has been such an overwhelming success I can but feel all agony over the announce-
Every generation has its crop of liberal souls who derive a great deal of pleasure in doing things that they do not particularly ask for or appreciate. During the war, every platform of the country was cluttered with three-minute speakers who did not send their sons to France. In oily tongues and language smooth they explained what a glorious sacrifice it was to perish in the midst of these persuasive busy bodies were nosed old spinsters who had no sons to offer or bachelors who had none that they could permit the list of $25-per-week demonstrators will reveal that not one of these persons are forced to live on that amount nor would they admit it if they were
People with a lot of idle time on their hands can generally find the most elaborate ways of wasting their surplus energy. If the PAL, and their co-workers work hard, they can earn more than the average family can earn more than $23 per week their efforts would be well spent, but to utilize value time and money showing them how to live on that amount is like teaching a dog how to scratch fees. He knows more about that than you
A Chance for Speculation
Of course, by the time this article is read by you and you and you, this exhibition in home economy will be half over and for all the time. You can also purposefully writing this before the first cake is baked or the first pie cut because it allows room for speculation. All I know about the affair is what I read in the papers, but even here I find room for doubt. There are committees appointed for project like Mrs-So-and-So for furnishings and Mrs. Somebody Else for entertainment and so on down the line. Now, no average home that has a committee plan. Occasionally you find a treasurer, trustee board and a finance committee, but these officers are generally filled with important positions in the household government. Even when the exchequer is almost depleted, she seldom calls a conference as long as she is in the house, laying his trousers across the back of a chair and snoring in his sleep.
The $25-per-week basis, am

Baltimore families and represents the
names of all members of the
family.
What My Survey Revealed
Upon occasion, I have had the opportunity to make surveys on the things I have observed and the things I have observed are not depicted in the PAL's demonstration house. I will naturally think that these things are not depicted in the PAL's survey, who made the survey.
If I visit the demonstration house about 8:30 a.m. I will expect to see at least a half dozen girls getting into their clothes as best they can, grabbing snacks of whatever they can salvage about the kitchen they are in. If the big sister is not watching, and leaving fragments of egg and grease around the edges of their mouths as they eat, Father got out about quarter to five and by this time has already put in an hour at Sparrows Point at the fertility center, where she breakfast at Mr. Charles' in Roland Park or is mixing her suits in somebody's basement preparatory to hanging out the wash.
What We Expect to See
If I go to the demonstration house about noon I will naturally expect to see clothes and other articles lying about the floor. The dishes piled high in the sink and things in general disorder. I will be disappointed goes without saying. What I will see regardless of the hour at which I call will be a tidy little house, but with pretty bows to match the color scheme of the wall paper (which the way will be inducted instead and dainty pots of freshly cut flowers will add a touch of nature. A gold fish-bowl and probably a canary will be inducted instead and dainty pots of freshly cut flowers will add a touch of nature. A gold fish-bowl and probably a canary will be inducted instead and dainty pots of freshly cut flowers will add a touch of nature. A radio generously furnished by the entertainment committee will give off a concert in clear light from defective tubes, as one would expect. If there are any children around at all they will undoubtedly be inducted into the little shavers who stand around motionless to add atmosphere.
Will Set a Precedent
While I doubt whether any of the people who actually live off of $25 per week and less, will either visit Baltimore or move profitable as a society event. If the experiment proves a success, I see no reason why the husbands of Baltimore can not band themselves over twenty-five-dollars-per-week Protective Association and compel our wives to live on that amount without squawking. The members of Baltimore take as the first martyrs to the cause and if they make out ok, the rest of us can follow.

visiting his sister Nadyne, whom he 'hadn't seen for several years.
Willard heart the slatter of dishes, oats and pans in the kitchen.
The aroma of oercolating coffee and the smell of sizzling bacon-and-egg mixture to his nose.
Nadyne called:
"Come on. Williams, and have um's oeckfust."
Willard dashed into the kitchen and planted a perfunctory kiss upon his sister's brow.
"How're you this time, Sis?" "Fine. Did ums have a 'wood sleep?' "Yes. Slept like a log after being awake on the train so long. Ball was talking to baby talk to me? I'm twenty-two, almost as old as you are!"
"You may be almost as old as I am, but I'm a woman and you're just a boy, that's the difference. Get me? But offends your high-tech. But won't talk any more baby talk to you. Let's eat."
They began to consume the tastiest breakfast that Nadye had prepared. They talked of the folk at home, and other things of mutual import.
Breakfast over. *Willard lit a arette and began to puff.*
"Give me one. Will."
Nadye held out her slender, manicured fingers.
"What! You smoke. Sis?"
"Why sure. Is that a crime?"
"No, but I didn't think it."
"What about your Luckies and don't be such a baby. I tell you you're not a man yet!"
"I'm not a baby. I don't mind any other girl smoking, but you, my sister, well... it's different."
Yielded. They smoked in silence.
Nadye arced to clear the table.
"Can I help you with the dishes, Sis?"
"No, go in and see what you can get on the radio. I'll attend to these things. Sorry I haven't some toys here for you to play with!"
Willard went into the living room in a few minutes the usual uninteresting toren-on radio program was flowing from the Atwater-Kent loud
Enter Caroline
The doorbell rang.
He switched off the radio.
Nadine called from the rear of the apartment.
"Do it is. Willard. I haven't anything on but my dressing gown."
Willard mabled to the door; he opened it to see a girl of perhaps twenty-four.
She was tall, slender, and wore a short, simple gingham hour· dress that clung closely to her well-rounded busses and hips.
"They're too serious girl!" he thought.
"They don't grow 'em like this down in Hickleville!"
His mouth flew open with admiration; he was speechless for a moment. He automatically stepped aside as the girl walked majestically in and seated herself in a convenient armchair. She made herself perfectly at home. She closed the door and sat down before the radio again.
"Where's Nadyne?" the girl asked.
"She's busy getting dressed. She'll be in in a minute. Must I tell what is?"
"No. She knows. You're her brother, Willard. aren't you?"
He forgot about the radio, and shifted into an armchair that faced him. How could he see, and enjoy, her symmetrically tapered, crossed legs to greater advantage
"Yes, I'm her brother. How'd you know?"
"Gosh, you look just like her. Then too, she's been telling me that she expected you." "And you are?" "I'm a good irrel of Nadynye's. I live upstairs to the house above this one. My name is Catherine Catherine Carson. I'm very glad to meet you, Willard." "Glass. I indeed glad to meet you, he said self-consciously.
Willard wasn't used to girls taking the initiative like this. Hicksville girls never did. Do you like New York? Your first time I believe.
"Yes, it's my first time. I began to like this town about ten minutes ago... when you came into this room."
Why should that affect your likes or dislikes?
"Because where I hail from they don't have any real girls like you!" "You sure have a good line, all right. Go ahead and broadcast... I'm listening in."
"Honest. I am not kidding you!" "Dated Up"
Nadye came in.
"Why hello, mother! I want you to meet my bromber. Mister Wor..."
"Aw cut it, Nadye. I've already met Willard. Didn't think I was going to wait till you came in, did you? I introduced my worker. I have to hand it to you. Don't work too fast with Willard; he's young yet and intersexed, you know."
Nadye laughed.
"That's what you think, but I think differently. Anyway I like him and he likes me."
Catherine turned to Willard.
"Don't you sweetee?" He nodded assentingly.
Nadve spoke.
"Will was thinking of going to the midnite show tonight. He wants to see 'Bluebirds,' down at the 'Liberty' on Forty-second street. He was complaining because he didn't have a girl to take along." "atherine immediately took the him." "Why, I will go with him. Sure I will!" Willard was elated.
The thought of having Catherine for a theatre companion pleased him beyond measure. Tonight he would perhaps get a chaperone to show him to disguise his sister's statement that he was inexperienced.
Something suddenly troubled Nadyne.

Shredded String Beans and Fresh Pork
One quart shredded string beans, 1 pint shredded cooked pork, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons butter.
Melt the butter in a heavy iron skillet, and add the beans and pork. Cover and cook for 20 or 25 minutes, turning the beans and pork reheat. Shredded beans should be young and tender when this method of cooking is used.
Liver and Bacon
Allow 1 or 2 thin slices of bacon for each serving. Cook the bacon over a slow fire in a broad iron skillet. As soon a sack is delicately browned and rip, take the bacon out and cook it in a pan. It will be greasy. While the bacon is cooking, vice the liver and remove the outer skin and veins. Many cooks pour boiling water over beef liver to draw out any blood remaining on it by scraping with a fork or scalding. Beef and calf livers are good either scaled or unscaled. Dip each piece in flour, season with salt, and cook slowly in the bacon fat. Heat the meat makes the edges to scorch. Onions cut in thin, round slices may be cooked with the liver. When the liver is tender and golden brown, remove from the pan and keep it warm while the gravy is cooked. Pour the gravy over the fat, measure out; 2 tablespoons of it, and mix with about 1½ tablespoons flour. Use a cup of milk to mix with the fat and flour, and cook the gravy until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Cook the liver or serve it separately. Garnish the dish of liver with the bacon and a bit of parsley.

Republican Political Speakers Rap Maryland Democratc Laws
The Nation's Biggest All-Negro Weekly
JIM CROW LAW IS TARGET OF G.O.P. CANDIDATES
Paul Berman Says He will Work for Repeal Measures.
DEMOCRATS BUSY
Total Negro Registration is Now 26,840.
(Reprint from last week's City Edition)
A barrage of big gun fire aimed at the state's jim crow laws featured activities on the Republican battle front, while Democratic submarine warfare featured the political activities in the Fourth Legislative District, this week.
Chief among the candidates who gave the state jim crow laws a direct rap was Paul Berman, candidate for the state senate. In an address at the rally held at Zion A.M.E. Church he declared that if elected to the senate he would smack one of his big rights, the effort to have every jim crow law and racial discriminatory law removed from the statute of the state.
At the same meeting, August Mueller, candidate for sheriff, made an appeal to voters under the promise he would administrate his department without discrimination toward Negro citizens. Practically every Republican candidate, including Mayor Broenning rapped the jim crow law in speeches in the Fourth District this week.
Democrats Busy
Indications that the Democratic managers are also busy in the Fourth District reached the surface this week when it was learned that workers were busy getting registrants favorable to their candidates on the books. None of their candidates have staged appeals in the district so far. Political observers characterize their campaign one of the submarine type. Neither E. Milton Aldfleet candidate for the state senate, in the Fourth District, made any speeches.
Fitzgerald Stirs Interest
Considerable interest is still shown the work in the recent change of affiliation of William L. Fitzgerald, who although a lifetime Republican and one time a Republican member of the city council, registered as Democrat. Just what the Democratic registration among Negroes this year will is still a conjecture, but observes point out that far a larger proportion than at any previous time in the history of the party in Maryland.
26840 on Polls
With the close of the registration Thursday, a total of 26,840 Negro voters had been placed on the books. This is around 7,000 less than the record registration eight years ago. Party chiefs declare, however, that they expect to put more than this 7,000 on the books of the last registration day, which is Thursday, October 16.

Boy, 15, Seeks Mother who Left Baby of Two
Joseph S. Edwards, Jr., 1217 Park Avenue, 15 is anxious to get in touch with the people of William, who left him 11 years ago, a two-year-old baby, in the care of Mrs. Julie Wilson, then a teacher at William, Joseph, now a ninth grade student of the Booker T.

The boy states that his mother is being held in a nursing home living in Philadelphia, although she spends the summers in Atlantic City. It has been her custom to send a letter to her, and these cards, which never contain an address, have been received every year until the summer just past. The one occasion on which the past summer son was during the summer of 1926, while he happened to be on a vacation in the country, anyone who knew him was informed information concerning her can write to the Park Avenue address.
New York Makes Openings for Mechanics
The executive board of the New York Urban League held its first regular meeting on Thursday afternoon. October 10 by request of the chairman, Arthur C. Holden, and the executive committee, the entire meeting was given over to the discussion of unemployment in Harlem and how the organization proposes to meet the problem during the winter months.
Samuel A. Allen, industrial secretary, told the efforts being made to aid occupational groups including the mechanics, barbers, taxicab drivers and the Colored Merchants' Association in achieving economic security. He mentioned especially openings made for colored mechanics on the state hospital now being constructed at Central Islip, Long Island, the Hudson River Bridge, and the 135th Street police station. Work was secured for nineteen mechanics and carpenters at Brentwood and Central Islip. Those present included M. A. and Mrs. Arthur C. Holden, Edward Norman, Miss Elizabeth Walton, Arthur A. Madison, Mrs. Joseph J. Corn, Lemuel Foster, Dr. Abbey Poyter Leand, Harold Riegelman, Rev. William L. Times, Mrs. Joseph M. Broskauer, Dr. E. P. Roberts, Miss Eva D. Bowles, Owen Lovey, Dr. P. P.

210 "TRUANTS" FOUND IN ONE HOUR SURVEY
AFRO Reporters Make Count of Children in Streets Thursday. MANY FOUND OUT
Attendance Officer Says Conditions Normal.
(Reprint from last week's City Edition)
That many Baltimore school children either have not answered the call of the school bells or are playing "hookey" w as revealed Thursday when five AFROAMERICAN reporters found 210 children in one hour playing in the streets of the city.
Following reports that many children are still out of school, the survey was made from 11:00 to 12:00 Thursday morning in different parts of the city. On the basis of the children found in these small areas, it is believed that hundreds of children are still off the school rolls.
Attendance Compulsory
The Baltimore school laws make attendance in school of all children, between five and sixteen years of age, unless specifically excused, compulsory. There are four truant officers whose duty it is to keep Negro children in the schools. Both parents and children are summoned to juvenile court whenever they fail to heed the warning of the truant officers, according to rules and regulations of the attendance department.
Officer Talks
When asked about the present attendance status of Negro children in the public schools, Miss Rosabel Hall, chief attendance officer, admitted that there was a larger numerical proportion of Negro children out of school than whites, but declared that the situation was about normal for this time of the year.
"This department," she says, "makes the same effort and carries out the same routine in keeping Negro children in school that we do white. It is a fact, however, that there is more moving about of colored people, and consequently it is harder for the attendance officers to locate colored children who do not report to school than whites.
"Another matter which is complicating the attendance situation is the fact that the Family Welfare is not taking on any new cases of relief, because the children are out of school because they have no shoes or proper clothing and the officer finds it hard to sumply them."
When asked did the financial depression cause any decrease, Miss Hall declared that the figures at present of children out of school are about what they think they will be in the may have some effect later on in the winter, she says.
Many Reasons
Many reasons were given for being out of school by the 210 children counted by the AFRO-AMERICAN reporters Thursday. Some of them reported that they had been sent down town to pay bills, some they did not have shoes or clothing, some boys found standing on corners ran immediately when asked about school, indicating that they were deliberately dodging what they supposed was an attendance officer.
The following boys and girls of school age answered questions and admitted that they were out of school for one reason or another.

LORENZO PRICE TO
GET NEW TRIAL
(Reprint from last week's City Edition)
Despite strenuous opposition of Herbert R. Conor, State's Attorney, to granting a new trial to Lorenzo Price, shell-shocked war vet, convicted and sentenced to hang for the killing of Reuben Heyman, the Court of Appeals overruled a motion for reargument and the convicted man will have another chance before the bar of justice.
The Court of Appeals granted the new trial some time ago on the grounds that the jury which convicted him did not pass on the question of sanity. Although the date of trial has not been set, it is expected to come early in the fall session.

Corner Stores for Banks
As in most other cities backers have sprung up in nearly every drug store, grocery store, and in fact wherever one happens to be lucky and can get a few hundred dollars together he at the process to become backer and if he can be lucky will run his capital up to a few thousand dollars in a few weeks.
If he continues to be lucky he will continue to pay his bets but the moment he has a heavy "hit" that is the moment an unusual, number of players win, he will usually decide whether to pay off and take the cost of receiving his fortunes or to fold his stock and quietly go out of town and it usually happens that he does the latter.
Fever Spreads to Whites
While at the outset the numbers racket here in Gotham was confined almost entirely to colored brothers and "sisters," the fever has rapidly spread until the wealthy white bankers and brokers in the final months of the war, and formed banks of their own with a system patterned very much after the colored one with the exception of the fact that instead of playing one and two cents they play five and ten dollars. Likewise instead of playing long strings they telephone their "banker" just as they do their broker on the stock exchange. Below is a sample of the tip sheet sold in Harlem.

and both parties have worked hard to get all qualified voters on the registration books.
In thirty-five years, registration of colored voters in Baltimore City has done little more than demolition, the fact that the 19th Amendment, which became a part of the U.S. Constitution in 1920 made it possible for 15,000 colored women in Baltimore to vote for the first time.
For the 1920 election, 15,497 colored voters came in order to help Harding, the Republican, defeat Cox, the Democrat, for the Presidency.
Four years later, in 1924, when Coolidge battled with Davis, 30,986 colored, registered, and in the Hoover administration, in 1928, 33,147 colored voters registered.
The figures below show the registration of voters, colored and white, for the past thirty-five years and indicates a successful voter registration in presidential election years of 1920, 1924, and 1928.

I'm going down and stand in the hallway on the ground floor, and if she sees you, she'll be there! She'll be another murder in Harlem. As for that dirty, low that's with her. I just want to lay eyes on him!" "You don't do anything rash. Please don't! Think of yourself. You don't want to get the chair, do that does it matter? After the way that girl has done me?

John, hatless and coatless, paced nervously to and fro in front of her.

He nudged her.
Nadye watched him timorously.
He turned to leave the apartment and placed his sand on the cookbook.
Nadye rushed after him and cried:
"John, wait a minute!" Don't hurt Catherine, you mustn't!

"I swear I won't bother her now, Nadye. I'm so sorry, for your sake, that things happened to me."
I received a relieved sign and dropped back as if in a sound ease.

The doorbell rang instantly. Nadye came her serenity; John jumped to his feet.
"Will, don't come in. I'm awfully sick, palpitation! Go back on the avenue and get to the awning of ammonia. There's an all-night drug store just around the corner!"
Willard hesitated; he didn't know what to do.
"Don't stand there dreaming. Will! Go on! I'm sick. I tell you!"
Her brother shuffled away. She climbed door and hastened to John's side.

She knew that Catterine was safely home and that no harm would now come.

on notice that the Negro is getting tired of its treatment of him. The Negro has carried the obligations of citizenship. He has the right to demand some of its emoluments. The white man expects you to stand on your own feet and stop begging. Go and take the things that are yours and let our leaders inform the party in power that he is tired and he is chafing under the reins. The new Negro is at hand and the political renaissance of the Negro has begun. Where it will end, I do not hope.
Middle Man in Politics
Judge Cobb agreed that the Negro "should be a middleman in politics. I have always thought would better, better, better." He said, "President Coolidge agreed with him, he said, that it would be better if the Negro would split his vote. Leaving the Republican party and going to the Democratic party is not much of a remedy, declared Mr. Howard. He agreed, however, with Mr. Thomas's criticism of Representative L. C. Moore, who has failed of congressional enactment. "I do not think there is any greater hypocrite in the world than Mr. Dyer," said Mr. Howard. Mr. Thomas in his address had said that the Negro had followed with the remark that he believed in the sincerity of the congressman. Armond W. Scott, with an attorney, who took sides with Mr. Coolidge, said the time has come that we have got to let men know that no man can look at me and say, there is a Negro, he is a Republican. The Republican party, "it's now the ku klux party in this country."
Lincoln Did Not Free Negro
"Abraham Lincoln did not free the Negro." Mr. Scott declared, "Today we woy that we woy that we woy the fact that Frederick Douglass induced Lincoln as a war measure to call on two hundred thousand black soldiers, and they are the men who saved the Union liberated us from chattel slavery." M. Grant Lucas, president of the club, presided. Other speakers were Raigh C Bunche and William C H of the faculty of Howard University. In an interview after the meeting Mr. Thomas states that he quarrelled with the Negro in order that the Negro may accomplish anything politically "we would have to divide our allegiance so as to make both-parties want us."

HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va.—Many anxious to pay reverent support to a departed leader and friend were unable to find room in the Hampton Institute, where they spent afternoon of Wednesday. October 8 at the funeral services of the school's late president, Dr. George Perley Phenix, white, who had died suddenly of heart attack. The body of the late president had last rested in 10 oclock in the morning. A student guard of honor was composed of Enoch Hayward, Henry Jackson, Randall Parker and Thomas Sawyer. They stood in reverent watch during the day, and the front of the platform banked in flowers when the Hampton Institute chair, under the direction of Dr. R. Nathaniel the Rev. E.

PANSY OLD DEAR:
Things are beginning to look up in
With Autumn really here in tone as
with in name, societe takes on a
realism with a capital 'S'. 'P'
not yet in swing, there is an exciting exe-
tence that promises
uninterrupted season with a bang.
Baltimore you know, is a city of clubs. And with the hot weather permanently in the background, Bridgettes are congregating and plans for coming affairs get almost as much attention as fall wardrobes.
Just within the past week, I have tidings of two dances, one a Halloween affair on Ghost night (October 31) by the Junior Matrons and Anita Thomas tells me that the Entre Nous, of which she is president, by the way, will give their annual costume dance early in December. Their plans are not yet complete, but plans do not need to be completed, for the affaires of Entre Nous are always hotsy tosy.
Bon Tons Elect
The Bon Tons elected officers on Thursday. This was their op-portunity to present the awards was hostess. Though the session was confined strictly to business, nevertheless the members a jolly good roster of officers to administer the club's affairs for the year. Mrs. A. Jack Waters, vice-president; Mrs. George Hall, corresponding secretary, and Mrs. Miles Connor, secretary. Mrs. Hattie Carter will hold the funds.
Napiers Wed Fifty-two years Baltimoreers are so cosmopolitan that our society columns get more and more national in scope, day by day. You will be pleased to hear that the James C.

He is now chasing ignorance in the public schools of New York, while his clever wife is employed at the John Haynes Holmes Community Church and likewise continues her musical studies.
Wm. Anderson in Harlem
When William C. Anderson forsook his job as a teacher at Harlem that Harlem was the stern. But guess it was just a matter of home fires holding their lure. He has joined the security department and is now the secretary of neighborhood activities of that branch. He will disobey police attention and to obey police attention will tend wards a social and educational program that will prevent delinquency.
Bernice Buckner had a few friends over for bridge on last Tuesday evening. Bernice always has such nice parties that I hated ever so much to miss this one, but one simply can't be in more than one place at a time, you know: However, Elizabeth Marshall, Alice Wilson, Etta Mason, Theodosia Johnson and Alida Frisby I hear were over to enjoy the bridge, chatter and luncheon.
At Vets' Reunion
When the Veterans of the World War met in the Hub City week before last, of course the Washington and Baltimore buddies went boop-poop-a-dashing over to exchange reminiscences and what have you with former pals.

Frank Wilson, Charles M. Coates from Washington, and John M. Johnson, from here.
Everybody put on her best blend and tucker and drifted over to the Penn Hotel on Saturday evening to play bridge with the Girligags.

Morton Short in the latest sport tots: Marie and Mildred Lynch and Coach Hill and Prof. Spaulding doing a fourstone; "Ounti" Thomas with a moving Mills Miller from Petersburg.

There was peanuts, candy, and delish food and everybody just had a "swellent" time.

Thus comes to the story of the man through a slave, whose name is unknown, but who left two sons, named Caesar and Pompey, to carry on his

CHURCH RELIGION IS NOT SOLVING THE NEGRO PROBLEM
Present Day Church Not Facing Vital Questions.
YOUTH REBELS
Younger People Refuse to be Hypocrites.
That the present religious system is failing to meet the problems of the Negro, was the consensus of opinion of civic leaders from all sections of the country, who met in the Conference of City Workers, at the Metropolitan Episcopal Church here, this week.
The present-day attitudes of the Negro in religion, was the theme of a three-day discussion of authorities in various fields, who had been called, together with ministers and social workers, under the auspices of the Bureau of Negro Work of the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension, the Methodist Episcopal Church
If the church is to retain the respect of the people whom it serves it must touch all phases of the people's lives, was the opinion of R. M. Riley of the Home Missions and Church Extension Board, who spoke on "Unemployment" on Wednesday morning. Mr. Riley cited among the reasons given by employers for failure: to employ Negroes; objections on part of labor unions; traditions of plants to employ only white workers; to employ workers to working with Negroes; cost of maintaining separate working quarters and lack of competency and loyalty of workers. He offered as a solution to the unemployment situation an urge to return to rural sections, where crowds did not exist and where opportunities were present for low cost of living.
Opinion Differs
Gammon Morris, also of the board of home missions, differed with Mr. Riley, in the house discussion which followed. Giving vivid pictures of the poverty and ill treatment accorded to ople living in the farm, the farmer Mr. Morris decided that he would prefer coming to the city and starving than living in the unspeakable huts of many of these farms and of being cheated and robbed of the fruits of his labor. Tenants, he declared, worked in some instances for ten and fifteen years and each year, according to the figures of the land ownership, Christianity touched the business, economic, industrial and political lives of the race, it would continue to lose its grip on the Negro

as a whole, both speakers contended. W. L. Hopkins, executive secretary of the Armstrong Association of Philadelphia, declared that the church must contend for the social rights' members. "The employ enjoys, along with other elements of the community, twelve circumstances operating at particular times. It is not fair, to permit him to escape, entitle him to bear his share of unfavorable conditions when they come about," he said.
Religion Deficient
"The Negro layman has lost faith both in his church and in his 'lodge,' declared Dr. Wallace A. Battle, field secretary of the American Church Institute for Negroes of New York. "He has found that 'the church has failed to produce what he has been paying for all these years. Consequently while he is still willing to pay for the benefits offered, he will not longer be contented with the promise of reward in another world for the dollar spent in this world. "The laborer has in his heart that he has been cheated by his church" declared Mr. Battle. He is interested of the church, where use too much money for luxuries while he is in want. He thinks the church has not given him a square deal.
About Three Cents Worth of Tea
"Three cents' worth of tea nearly destroyed all the religion of the country," further stated the speaker, referring to the Hoover-DePriest tea party. "The laity are beginning to wonder what this Christianity is all about when the church falls to take any particular stand on the boarding of billions of dollars, in order to itself, itself, these billions should function for its members.
"If the kind of Christianity that allows its worshippers to be burned, that will allow one cup of tea to break up heaven, is all that is offered, take me down to hell, when they be so prejudiced," Mr. Battle declared.
Discuss Youth
That the youth of today are no longer accepting dogmatic statements, but are seeking facts, was the
opinion of Dean Lucy Slowe of Howard University and Leslie Pinkney Hill, principal of the Cheyney Training School of Teachers at the college, the modern college curricula had a tendency to lead the student towards the scientific explanation of many conflicting ideas as presented by the Bible, Mr Hill contended that the college were from a faith in Christianity, "Any religion that can't face scientific facts is a mighty poor religion," he said.
Race Relations
It was Mr. Hill's opinion that student interacial conferences were tending towards a better understanding of the youth of the country held at the institution which he represents last December. It will be repeated this December, according to Mr. Hill. He also stated that an expression on the part of Swarthmore College, when such a conference to be held
Editor Talks
Carl Murphy, president of the Afro-American Publishing Company, addressed the conference on the line and customs of the Haitian people in the city, as well as the morning session, Friday.
Mr. Murphy, who was a member of the Moton Educational Commission to Haiti, said that contrary to what he had told the nation, he did not hold as the hero of Haiti. The natives hold in far greater reverence Dessalines, who, unlike L'Ouverture, dreamed of a partial release from outside dominance, dreamed of and completed freedom for the island. Another beloved leader was King Henry Christophe, builder of the Citadel Ferriere. A woman of the Haitian Republic are the merchants. According to Mr. Murphy, they conduct markets, carrying their products to and from the place of selling dn small donkeys and on their heads. The market is a place where they must that though they have to carry these products many miles in some instances, the woman trader refuses to sell by the way side, but prefers to take her to the market to hear the news of the community and haggle over prices.
Schools
Mr. Murphy explained that there were three school systems. The schools conducted by the Haitian government are public schools, the teachers are paid about $6 per month in these schools. The buildings are mere shacks, pictures he presented showed. Better schools are the private schools, the teachers declared. Teachers' salaries are about $75 per month. The schools are well run and well housed. In speaking of the schools under him, he said that the finest buildings in the towns were the American schools, though the Haitians resented the forcing of the study and English instead of the study and industrial education down their throats.
Medical Aid Appreciated
The medical aid that the American government is rendering in the republic is the most appreciated. Mr Murray is the most appreciated. Metus, Prominent Speakers

NASHVILLE, Tenn.—Approximately ten per cent of the gross earnings of the National Baptist Publishing Board, amounting to $24,779, was donated to be used for educational programs, charity and educational purposes, according to thirty-fifth report to the board last week.
This is equivalent to the total increase of business, for the fiscal year. These donations and missionary contributions were divided up: first, to the foreign mission station in Africa, and to the foreign mission boards located in America; second, to the five mission stations in Panama formerly operated by the Home-Mission Board; third, to the mission board of consecration of Sunday School missions through the annual summer Sunday School Congress.
The secretary, Henry Allen Boyd, made a further revelation that $100,000 in assets had been added to their holdings, which are well over one million dollars.
Two vacancies on the board were filled by the election of the Rev. G. B. Taylor, pastor of the Second Baptist Church, and the Rev. J. B. Bidley, pastor of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church.
No action was taken on the position of editorial secretary, caused by the death of Dr. D. J. Hull; nor the superintendent of the school, who since the resignation of Dr. J. A. Sharpe; nor the editorial secretary of the B.Y.P.U. department, nor that of field secretary, vacant since the death of Dr. William Beckham. The president, the veteran, for forty-five years pastor of the First Baptist Church in Little Rock, Ark., presided. Dr. E. R.
