MOTON BACKS HAITIANS ON SCHOOL ISSUE Report Urges Second Commission be Sent to Island. U.S. CRITICISED Salaries to Whites Entirely too High. WASHINGTON, D.

THIRD MESSAGE PASTOR DENIES OF PRESIDENT GIRL WAS HIS DISAPPOINTING FORMER WIFE THIRD MESSAGE PASTOR DENIES OF PRESIDENT GIRL WAS HIS DISAPPOINTING FORMER WIFE WASHINGTON, D. C. — President Hoover, in the third message which he has delivered to Congress since he has been in office, again failed to mention the Negro. Not only was the President's message mum on this subject which formed a part of each message sent by his predecessor, ex-President obliquely to Congress, but his words directed to the final session of the 71st Congress and read Tuesday, made no reference to the question of lunchtime and mob violence. Many Petitions This latter is the more remarkable since the President, especially in the past six months, has been important by national organizations and by individuals to make a statement against lynching and to urge upon Congress the passage of a federal anti-lynching law. Appeals to the President to call a conference to discuss lynching also failed. The only Presidential message against mob violence came from the President's secretary and consisted of a few words only. Only last week the William Monroe and a delegation of the Real Rights League specifically requested the President to recommend a station on lynching, Mr. Hoover declined, saying that he would have to seek other methods. State of Country In his message Tuesday, the President reported on the state of the union declaring that "substantial progress had been made during the year in national peace and security, the fundamental strength of Nation's economic insecurity; education and scientific discovery have made advances; our country is have to its problems of moral an: spiritual welfare." The message dealt primarily with economic depression, its causes and cures. Overproduction in securities and world-wide overproduction of basic commodities and resultant employment were given chief causes of the reflected confidence as to the future. Other Depressions Before "We should remember that these occasions have been met many times before, that they are but temporary, that our country is today stronger and richer in resources, in equipment, in skill, than ever in history. Recovery can be expedited, the President said, in co-operation, that "The vast majority whose income is unimpaired should not hoard out of fear, but should pursue their normal living and recreations; that each should seek to assist his neighbors who may be less fortunate; that each industry should assist its own employees." The president asked for an appropriation of from $100,000,000 to $150,000,000 to provide further employment. **Haiti** On the question of Haiti, the President's message said: "A commission has was supported by Congress has completed its investigation and reported upon our future policies in respect to Haiti and proved of high value in securing the acceptance of these policies. "An election has been held and a new government-established. We have replaced our high commissioner by a minister and have begun the gradual withdrawal of our activities with a view to complete retirement at the expiration of the present treaty in 1935." RICHMOND. — "Only rumor, nothing but talk," said Dr. S. L. Parham, pastor of Mosby Memorial Baptist Church, Idlewood Avenue and Randolph Street, Monday when asked to comment on the statement that one who called herself Wife No. 1 arose in church Sunday and declared that he was her husband and he was the father of her ten children. The pastor also denied that he was married to Mrs. Parham No. 1 for about 30 years, divorced her and notified the church to that effect before he took charge. Dr. Parham came here about six months ago from High Point, N.C., having married his present wife, Mrs. Frances Parham, in Richmond, Va., before the Rev. W. H. Stokes, pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church. Dr. Farham told the AFRO-AMERICAN that he could not make the statement that would clear the matter up sufficiently. Asked if he had been married before Dr. Farham said "yes." Asked if he had been married to the woman who stood up in the church to accuse him, the pastor said, "no." 22 Wed in Rockville ROCKVILLE, Md.—The following twenty-two persons were granted licenses to wed here recently: 28.

NUMBERS RACKET COMPETITION IS KEEN HERE No Barons, but Companies Collect $20,000 Daily Bets. ADD DIGIT New Four Way Number. 2.500 to One. With an open field in keen competition, a half dozen large "syndicates" and a number of individual backers collect around $20,000 per day on the numbers in Baltimore. Unlike some other cities, the "numbers" business here is not controlled by powerful men or groups who use "strong arm" methods to keep the field for themselves. As a result the only force for "doing" business along this line is sufficient funds to "thug" the game. Many Forced Out Every few weeks sees a new banker in the field as others are forced out by the flow of "hot tips" coming from newspapers. The playing public has also brushed up on the game with the aid of the artist, board boards in churches, spiritualists, dream books, gypsy princes, and the net result is that most of the "mushroom numbers" backers succeed more often in backing out than in paying off. Small Bets Few people here strain themselves in playing the game. The average play is from two to three cents, depending on the amount of the dams gets from a loaf of bread, or a pound of chops. For example, if the price of sliced bread is changed from eight cents to nine cents, then the average play would be one cent. s20.000 Mondays With the big white and colored population, it is estimated that the "number" racketeers collect over $20,000 on Mondays and about $10,000 on Thursdays. During the remaining days the collections average about $15,000. Some of the companies cocrating in Baltimore give the people a square deal, although hit very heavily at times. Companies bearing such reputations are the Monumental, the Baltimore, and the M and S syndicate. The Columbia Syndicate, a white company, is on the up and up. For a long time, the 6 and 8 company could stand the searchlight, but it is said that they "buckled" when the AFRO'S 004 fell on them several days ago. The American Corporation, at one time one of the largest, is said to be particularly shy at "touted" numbers, and oftimes has to go into a "huddle" to determine whether it will pay *Continued on Page 16, Column 6* Dines 1,500 Idle by Wire Order SACRAMENTO.

Farrell, attorney, requesting that every unemployed man, colored or white, be treated to a dinner and himself be fed through contracts with restaurants.

GALLITAN, Mo. — When the epidemic of black smallpox came to this community thirty-five years ago and the pest house was filled with the groaning and the dying, a canvas was made of the county to find someone to nurse the sick, but the venture proved fruitless. Nobody could be found who was willing to risk life behind the closed doors of the pest house and the predicament looked grave for a time. Then pretty brown America Williams, twenty-three, stepped unobtrusively forward and volunteered her services. With fourteen beds in the pest house, each one laden with a patient, America put on a calico apron and entered the death abode. DARTMOUTH PROF NEW PRESIDENT OF HAMPTON HAMPTON INST., Va. — Arthur Howe, white, assistant professor of citizenship at Dartmouth College, has been unanimously elected president of Hampton Institute by the board of trustees. Henry Scattergood, acting chairman of the board, said that the tru- Died Like Flies People died like flies. In one night there were thirteen deaths in the pest house. People were brought there on stretchers in the morning and the next mourn, they were carried out on stretchers, dead. Wagers were made that America Williams, the heroine, would not come out alive. But she was spared. She risked her life to save white and colored alike, and then, when the epidemic had terminated and things were back to normal, vanished, as unobtrusively as she had come forward. It seemed, and this was a former patient, a wealthy white man named Crumes, who left her last week eight thousand. dollar. America, now in California, will spend her remaining days in peace and plenty. 5 Baltimore Couples Wed at Ellicott City The Rev. M. B. Simpson of the A.M.E.

Becton, evangelist, announced that there would be a visit of the Holy Ghost on March 3:00 o'clock Thursday morning every door had to be locked and every inch of space in Tindley Temple was jammed with spectators. Many people said sure of being allowed to enter the Holy Ghost was supposed to ente: the 'building came to church as early—as-eight, o'clock and by 2:00 a.m. large crowds were still arriving. **Wears Robe** At 3:00 o'clock the Rev.

White Woman Leads Protest in Place which Banned Colored. CONVENTION ON DePriest Among those Rapped in Meeting. WASHINGTON. — In a demonstration against racial discrimination, more than 300 delegates to the National Convention for the Protection of the Foreign Born, refused service and left two cafes when the management refused to let colored patrons eat Sunday. The first protest came at a restaurant on E Street, near Fourteenth, when more than a hundred white delegates to the convention summarily left their tables when a man in charge told a colored delegate that he would have to take his food outside to eat it. In Stampede Led by a white woman delegate, who mounted a chair and made a protest, the whole delegation rose Mixed Telegation At the Fourteenth-Street face, near U Street, the delinquents, comprising more than a hundred white and colored customers, be minded that all be served or that none would stay in the place.

PAY NO MORE Dr. Grimke Calls the Howard School of Religion's Subject "Foolishness" WARNING 2 CHURCH NEEDN'T KOW-TOW TO COLLEGE-GRIMKE Sinfulness Not Dependent on Knowledge, He Says. H.U. PLAN FOOLISH World Can't Find God by Wisdom. By REV. FRANCIS J. GRIMKE Pastor of 15th Street Presbyterian Church, Washington, D.C. I noiced in the program of the fourteenth annual convocation of the hte School of Religion of Howard University, Washington, D.C., the subject "The Church Faces the College Generation," which arrested my attention. The first thought that came to my mind was: What is meant by College Generation? I suppose it refers to the large number of young people who are now attending colleges, larger than ever before in the history of the world. Well, what about these young people in our college? The purpose of the subject, I suppose, is to call the Church's attention to them—to the fact that, as a group, they are touch with modern science with all the range of knowledge that have been uncovered by modern research. Well, I said to myself, What of it? Will this influx of knowledge in possession of this College Generation alter in any way the mission of the Church? What is the mission of the Church? It is to preach the gospel of te reus, it is revealed in the Gospel. It is to call men to repentance and faith. Can't Find God by Wisdom It assumes that all men are sinners in need of salvation. The amount of secular knowledge that a man has has nothing whatever to do with the fact that he is a sinner. His sinfulness is not determined by how much or how little secular knowledge he has. He may have his head full of the garnered wisdom of the ages, and yet be a poor miserable sinner without God and without the world. The world by wisdom has never been able to find God; and men will be. What, therefore, I asked myself, has the Church to do with facing this College Generation any different from what it has to do in facing any generation? Only One Way to Save Sinners Fundamentally, it is the same problem everywhere that the Church has to deal with, the problem of saving men, of turning them from their evil ways to God. And there is only one way by which that can be done; and that is by the plain, simple preaching of the Word, backed by the presence and power of the Holy Spirit. Nothing else is going to happen; nothing can be done to do it. Sometimes we get the foolish notion into our heads that because young people are being educated that they must be saved in some other way. It is all nonsense; and it is vain to attempt to save them in any other way. Case of Paul Cited No man ever entered the ministry better equipped mentally than was the apostle Paul. He was a man of unusual virtues, big of brain, capable of Girl Defends Herself with Nail File RIGHTMOND, Va., (ANP).—E-lective wielding of a nail file, perhaps saved the life of Louise Robinson, 18, when she was set up by a group of white students. Louise told the officers when she was placed in arrest she asked that she be murdered, that the group of white students pushed her off of the sidewalk, and when she succeeded in tackling her. The leader was Mary Moore, white, who was stabbed several times in the shoulder with a nail file. dealing with the most intricate and complex problems, a master logician, a profound thinker. And yet, after meeting Jesus on the Damascus road, and after having been commissioned by Him to call men to repentance and faith, never once did he seem to think about his mission. He was to deal with the ignorant or the learned. He had but one gospel for all alike, rich and poor high and low, bond and free, ignorant or educated, wise or foolish. He so reasoned before Felix the governor, of righteousness, temperance, and judging, to what he wrote. All before the great court of Athens, representing the assembled wisdom of Greece, his words were: "And the times of this ignorance, and the judgments of all men everywhere to repent; because he hath appointed a day in the which he will judge the world in right- uses-s by that man whom he hath ordained; to all men, in that he raised him from the dead." One Gospel for All; One Hope of Success He not only had but one gospel for all; but only one hope of success in presenting it. "Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, sath the mighty power, and the mighty patience upon the Spirit that he went forth on his great career, and through whom the mighty results that attended his preaching were brought about. As he took no of what the Holy Spirit had done through him, the kind of preaching that Paul did, in demonstration of the Spirit and of power is all that the Church needs in facing this College of the Church, and it is made be true to its mission, to preach the plain, simple, unvarnished truth of God; and do it in dependence upon the Holy Spirit, and not upon the so-called incoquent disquisitions, to win men from their evil ways. Foolishness Let us be done with all this foolishness, and get back to God's way of saving the world. It is the only way, and the sooner the Church wakes up to that fact and gives itself way to the way pointed out by God. Word, in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments, the better it will be. Change Heart. Not the Head The College Generation needs no new gospel, but the same old story of men better, you can't save them by cramming their head's full of secular knowledge. The heart must be changed. The generation, "Except a man be born again, born of the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven." And nothing that this College Generation can do will ever alter that life. Darrow and Hayes to Lecture at Howard Clarence Darrow, of Chicago, and Arthur Garfield Hays of Ohio, will present a lecture for the Howard University Law School during the present school year. Dr. Darrow will deliver eight lectures on trial practice the first week in January, and will present a lecture on the law, the first of which was given on November 22 on the subject of "Freedom of Religion." On December 5 he will speak on, "Freedom of Religion"; February 28 "Freedom of the Press"; and March 17 "Freedom of the Press." D.C. CHURCH ROCKED BY INTERNAL STRIFE Members Say Pastor Wants to Change 20-Year-Old Financial Rule. MEETING NOISY Officer Called Dishonest and Unfair, is Report. Turmilow which borders on disruption by opposing factions is reported as being prevalent in the Metropolitan Baptist Church, R. Street, between 12th and 13th Streets, brought about, it is alleged by the desire of the pastor, the Rev. E. C. Smith, to change a 20-year-old method of handling the finances. The Rev.

APPEAL TO PRESIDENT HOVER by delegation, Spokesman. Wm. Monroe Trotter of Boston, Mass., at the White House, November 25, 1920. MR. PRESIDENT: Surprised by the sudden resurgence of the bloody anarchy of lynchings, shocked by an increase already in 1930 more than doubling the number for either of the preceding years, we have come in behalf of the colored Americans to the seat of the Federal Government and to the White House to protest, and to consult with the Government, asking protection of life. RELAPE FROM CIVILIZATION Lynching is the seizure and usurpation of government by the cowardly, cruel, brutal, flandish crowd wreaking vengeance on the lone hopeless, helpless victim and usually murderous, satisfying hatred against the victim's race. It is a deliberate negation of and assault upon government, incipient hostility and rebellion, relapse from civilization into savagery, dehumanization and menace for the race: chiefly tyranny, demobilization to all the people, a scandal and disgrace on the earth before, the world. country generally injurious to the general welfare it justifies Federal action. As violation for states of a Republican form of government, it justifies Federal action. As deprivation of life and property without due process of law and of the equal protection of the law by the states which do not prevent it or punish the lynchers and conspirators taken from the hands of the law, it calls for Federal treatment. ASK SUPPRESIDENT We ask suppression of the interest of domestic peace and treaty security. States do not stop it and seem unable when willing, on account of the strength of local race prejudice. Texas venipenent refuse to convict, Indiana county prosecutors refuse to aid the state. Victims are being found to have been innocent. If the lynchers increase and the Federal Government, final legal proof fails to aid, the lynchers race may in desperation feel compelled to protect themselves, which would mean a civil war, worse than the Gates and Washington. race. The chief cause of lynching is contempt for color, coupled with disregard for law. All color proscription and segregation foster the contempt which is the roots of lynching. The continuance of proscription, especially by the Federal Government, perpetuates this. Ask you to abolish all color segregation in Federal employment and otherwise in Federal domain, that the Federal may may act "with clean hands." ASK PRESIDENT TO LEAD Mr. President, you have led the government and the nation against disrespect of law, we ask that you so lead against its pressest, manifestation. As you have done, you have enforcement, lead also for suppression of law. As you have directed your law enforcement to advise against bootlegging, ask them to do so against lynching. As you now have the government war on the ricketeers, the Justice Department devising the measures, we ask you to have the government war on lynchers, the Justice Department devising the Mr. President, you have led the disrespect of law, we ask that you make manifestation. As you have led suppression of mob-murder. As you ment board to advise against book lynching. As you now have the go the justice Department devise the government war on lynchers, the measures. Thus will the glory be yours of which is in the keeping of the Pres. We ask you for legislation to such recommendation to Congress. President Hoover expressed enthie he would consult with his advisors against lynching. Delegate Trotter twice asked recommend legislation to Congress well-known that there were technical consult with his advisors. which is in the keep. We ask you for legislation to make lynching a Federal crime by such recommendation to Congress. President Hoover expressed entire sympathy with the plea and said he would consult with his advisors as to the most feasible measure to lynching. against tyranny. Twitter twice asked the President whether he would recommend legislation to Congress. Finally Mr. Hoover said it was well-known that there were technical difficulties and he would have to consult with his advisors.

Seventh Year is Completed DEPRIEST'S VOTE MORE WEIGHTY THAN SENATOR'S Congressman Speaks to 2,000 Sunday in Camden, N.J., Hall. WARNED AWAY Message Declared Meeting Democratic. CAMDEN, N.J.—Addressing an audience of 2,000 citizens in Convention Hall, Sunday, Oscar DePriest (Rep. Ill.) said there is only a majority of two among the Republicans in the next Congress and they need every vote they can get. "That means in the next two years my vote will be more important and weighty than that of your own Senator," said Mr. DePriest. The meeting was held under the auspices of the local branch of the N.A.A.C.P. of which Irvin T. Nutts is president. William Plekens, field secretary of the N.A.A.C.P., also spoke, criticizing the Camden county prosecutor's office for failure to prosecute charges of police brutality, declaring that citizens should resent this at the ballot box. Hits. Senator Again Hits Senator' Arkan Mr. Dr.Priest took issue with Senator Baird (Rep., N.J.) in a hold that Senator Baird declared here that I was putting the Negro back fifty years and that I should be barred from Camden. "Great influence was brought to bear to keep me from coming here. I have a letter in my pocket which informed me that this was to be a Democratic meeting. Won't I negotiate? "I If you advise you to protect yourselves by using the ballot box, I offer no apology, whatever." "We have been accused of asking for social equality, but the only social equality we have ever known is what the white race has established itself. We struggle for an equal opportunity before the law in protecting our rights. That is all the Negro wants and he can build his own social standing as he sees fit." Pickens Talks Mr. Pickens said he had been trying to prosecute several white policemen in Camden for abusing three respectable citizens. "We have brought the case before the grand jury and can get action. We have been booked and barred from getting the case before the jury, but cannot be prevented from getting it into the ballot box. "We can vote against certain men as fast as they come up for reeflection. We can retire those from public life who deny us our constitutional rights."

JACKSON, Miss. — Three-hundred and fifty inmates of the state insane institution were removed to safety Saturday.

Any afternoon at five, in front of 1731 Seventh Street, men of all ages and hundreds may be seen lined up for their bowl of evening soup so kindly and thoughtfully dispensed by the director of the Dollar Cleaning Company. Old men, young men, able men, weak men, men willing to work but unable to find employment in the depression which has come upon the capital of the nation, all get a room at the municipal thruches, a refreshing bowl of soup prepared under the personal direction of Mr. Williams. A. LEON WILLIAMS Mr. Williams has made this provision for the hurry and friendliness among his people, and any people who may apply, since the evening of November twenty-fifth. Having put to work everybody that could be absorbed by his business, he had to him so many people that did that to make every possible sacrifice to relieve conditions. Little Children in Line One of the most pathetic scenes among the many that strike the eye in the daily dispensing of coffee is the Dollar Dry Cleaning company, 1729-1733 Seventh Street, Northwest, that of two children who came led by an elderly man, Tuesday evening. Poorly clad and gliving; evidence of not having been fed for some time, when at first fed by the elderly man from the bowl of hot soup which had been offered to him. Each took a spoonful of the life-saving, body-warming food, and when Mr. Williams discovered the children, he was to tears and personally said that they could eat. The Man Behind the Deed By attention to business and by efficient service to his many patrons, Leon Williams, who has built the Dollar Dry Cleaning Company from its beginning seven years ago, he was born in Georgia. He left his native state and came to Washington fifteen years ago. He is a churchman, being a member of the Metropolitan Baptist Church; is married and has one daughter between 14 and 15 years of age. Himself a young man, he has become in this short time one of the most outstanding citizens of the District, and a credit to his people, as an outstanding illustration which lies before those who have the character, the energy and the vision he-in-America. Mr. Williams plans to continue this service to his business as he has the resources and his business continues. He is aisted in his work of relief by paid helpers and uses such raw shaws as he would serve on his own table, "these people," he would guests, to anyone of them who do the same for me, were our positions reversed.

Popular demand changed aspirin from a closely guarded secret of the medical profession, first compounded by an obscure country chemist, until today doctors and public alike know and have faith in aspirin and that faith has made aspirin the largest selling medicine in the world. There is one laboratory alone in Memphis, Tenn., which produced over nine million boxes of pure aspirin last year and this aspirin, Joseph's Pure Aspirin, is sold in convenient tins for 10c for a dozen tablets of guaranteed pure aspirin. Sensible economy and a sureness in its purity has directed thousands to demand only St. Joseph's Pure Aspirin which conforms to all government standards. It is generally known in medical circles that the manufacturers of St.Joseph's Pure Aspirin guarantee that it is as pure as money can buy.

IAX-ANA DOUBLE STRENGTH Leaders Mark Time with Many Idle, says Nannie Burroughs Women Urged to Have Unemployed Men Clean Up Yards, Front and Rear. Churches and Fraternal Organizations Advised How they -Can Help. By NANNIE H. BURROUGHS What on earth is the matter with organizations—church, fraternal, welfare, and educational—national and state—that they are so impotent in the present economic crisis and industrial depression. The people are out of work; they are hungry; they are indulging in all kinds of vice; they are taking care of the home. Where are the leaders? What are they thinking and what are they doing? Are they bibernating until the next convention season? Are they going to sit around all winter and depend on a share of the people who are coming out in the summer time all regaled to lead the people (to conventions)? task of cleaning up the homes, yards, communities. It would give the men the necessary exercise to keep them from getting too lazy to work and would also transform neglected yards—back and front—make a new name for the residents and create a wholesome and clean atmosphere in which children can live. The Lord Not Dead It is time for every man to give up his wife for himself or for somebody else. The people will go to pieces if they are not properly employed. A house of idleness will become a house of vice; a race of idlers will become a race of degeneracy. If we have leaders now is the time for them to go to leading the people and stop Groundhog Leaders The masses do not need groundhog leaders—those who tuck themselves away comfortably all winter and then turn to the grass. The winter is over. No, the winter will not be over until something definite, constructive, and permanent is done about unemployment. The masses do not united to do what they can do for the people. They could assemble and decide to keep one fact before the American people—the fact of the moral and political situation of the maternity boycott against Negro labor. Forced and confirmed idleness will make the Negro a social menace and a moral millstone about the need of the Negro for the protection of injury to American ideals as it will do Negro progress. This fact has not been put before the nation over against its program of elimination, discrimination in Negro employment. Hayoc in Idleness Do the leaders know the plight of the masses? Have they gone through the communities to see the invade that is being wrought by the war? Do the masses are packed with idle men who are resorting to every kind of vice to fill up their idle hours and satuate their lower passions. Why eat the bread of wickedness and drink wine of violence; they sleep not except they have done mischief? Under such conditions every virtue in the home is in danger of destruction. Children allying situation keeps up the hearts of the people will canker, children will be smitten by ignorance, poverty, and crime, and the homes of the masses will become rows of pest houses. Children without success succumbing to the vile, lustful, imbrucing, all-destroying power of it. Leaders Have Not Spoken What can the leaders do about it? They can do a great deal about it if they care a great deal about it. They can put the case squarely in front of their wordy resolutions, but in clear, dispassionate, challenging, courageous appeals for economic justice. This has not been done. The leaders have not spoken in one voice they have not, therefore, used their very first wrestle of defense in the time of trouble. Even God wants us to ask for what we need and it is hardly reasonable to expect employers to give black Americans the need when thousands of their lives are affected by the unemployment situation. They serve their own first. It is unfair, unwise, and un-American, but they do it. But people will stop and think if you give them money that they do not realize the tragic condition of our people at this time. No. War Discrimination When this nation goes to war there is no discrimination. This des- ignation is not more than war if the Negro becomes a confirmed loafer, because he is a victim of organization. I prejudice in labor industries. Let the nation know it. It is time for the leaders to speak for the people and speak to the people about this situation to put aside all of their petty differences and excuses and sit down together and see at least one reason why they are so different from people from moral death. Some strong hand and a God-inspired voice can start crying in the wilderness. The leaders of churches denominationals must together Their common task in this crisis is to preach a ringing message of faith, courage, and indomitable will. They do this in a way that does not give you overcoming faith. We have reached our extremity in this situation and man's extremity is God's opportunity. We must present God to speak. Deliverance will not come in a day, but it will come if the Christian leaders would only stand up in the midst of people and crowd, generals and peaks and challenge the people to try God." Organizations Can Help Have we among the thousands of Christian ministers, enough men with deep spiritual acumen wi', can put deeds above creeds, a righteous cause above "collections", the souls of men above selfish complacency, who would take it upon themselves to preside kind of gospel, quicken the spirit of the spiritual life of the people that they will decide to turn their advertisers into stepping-stones. Our own leaders can do much to help the people out of this dilemma. The women's organizations, fraternal organizations, welfare groups have means within their communities to give employment, to actually clean up this situation. We a. not doing what we can to help ourselves. The leaders are either waiting for something to happen or expecting to trail along and get the rest of what others will make happen. Women Can Sew For instance, women who seew many of them who are artists with the needle and know shop work, cannot find anything to do. They belong to a half dozen internal organizations and all of those financial organizations that deal with dollars in the juggles, uniforms, and paraphernalia every year. Fraternal organizations could pool their interests, open a factory that would put several thousands to work, make their own uniforms, and provide employment to their own men and women, and thereby kill two birds with one stone. It is a great business opportunity. Uncle Up the Home Clean Up the Home Furthermore, women can help in this situation by organizing a movement to induce the men to clean up their own homes and yards. Since the men cannot find any work to do, the women should assign them the "NOW...POPULARITY AND BEAUTY ARE MINE" (A True Story From I COULDN'T BE IT POSSIBLE "Never shall I forget birthday.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER (November, 1803) There are some people so warped and blamed in their judgment of things that they would scarcely believe that the Holy Bible was the Holy Bible unless they saw the name on it in large J. N. Mussley Editor and Publisher, 1892-1922. Lowly Morgan "I knew them when they used to live in Forney, Alley," says Old Resident and thereby much wind out of the sails of the newly rich or the socially prominent. Likewise those who have grown up with Morgan College until it has produced championship football teams, begin to recall days when Morgan, then housed at Fulton and Edmond Avenues, had little of a college and less of a football. A quarter of a century ago Morgan's football team had on its schedule the Baltimore High School, and the team lost as frequently as it was. What a step from that one building--dormitory, class rooms, library, assembly hall, college academy and theological school, quarter of a century ago, to Morgan's present plant and the prep football team to intercollege champions.

"Can nothing be done about the manner in which spiritualists are being jazzed by bands and orchestras for dance halls and cabaret's?" asks a reader of the AFRO-AMERICAN in a letter published in our forum. Well, let us see. By radio Saturday night, a crooner one who shows choreums for a dance orchestra) in the War- wick Hotel, sang the following: "Dray you children, dray: Make haste or it will be too late, St. Peter is going to close that golden gate. Gabriel has blowed the horn for judgment day. Pray, you children, pray." While he sang, Philadelphia danced and the music was carried over the air to dance radio fans. In New York the play, "The Green Pastures" places "the Lord" upon the stage to the accompaniment of serious spirituals; no jazz dancing. As to what will happen next, the forecast is difficult. I would like that, so far, the orchestra hasn't jazzed "Steal Away to Jesus," "Ave Maria," the "Te Deum," nor "Onward Christian Soldiers." There is real comfort in that.

Vocal West Virginia and Delaware A reader takes the AFRO to task for the statement that small states like West Virginia and Delaware have enjoyed the larger share of Federal patronage. Pew Jersey's Johnson P. Hood, who was named Mayor to Liberia by President Harding, was succeeded by Minnesota's Francis and now by West Virginia's Mitchell. West Virginia's Walter Fresnig was as district of Columbia's Deeds recently and that led to Delaware's Jefferson Coage. The newly created postoffice solicitation went to W. M. C. Hueston of Indiana, after it had been refused by West Virginia, T. Gillis Nutter. The newly created federal appointments barely total half a dozen, but of these few West Virginia and Delaware usually hold two, which is as the AFRO originally pointed out. Having established the facts, the next thing to Congress was to find a Federal plum for Maryland, and they are vocally active enough to make their Congressmen concerned about delivering their share of Federal patronage. The reason, for example, that Senator Phillips Lee Goldborough (Rep.) and to find a Federal plum for Maryland, or Pennsylvania's Reed (Rep.) for a Pennsylvania, is that Maryland and Pennsylvania voters do not know their onions. Pennsylvania has not designated an office for Washington for twenty-five years and Maryland not since Dr. Ernest Lyon was set as Minister to Liberia.

All of the Federal appointments barely total high, and the number of these West Virginia and Delaware usually hold two, which is the AFRO originally pointed out.

Pezavia O'Connell Dr. Penna O'Connell, professor of history in Morgan College, died last week mourned not only by those in Maryland where for eleven years he has made his home, but by the graduates of Princess Anne, of Howard, and of Gammon, where he taught, and by former parishoners in Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Ohio where he pastored. He was a product of that Mississippi which enslaved Negro boys and kept them ignorant sixty years ago. He taught the children of poverty and prejudice he climbed to earn the degree of doctor of philosophy in the Semitic languages from the University of Pennsylvania. "In that Mississippi swamps had brought forth a water lily. First of all, he was a preacher of the Word. Said he: "In the study of Jesus, is the solution of all our problems. But the church to him is the solution." Dr. Peziaz O'Connell, professor of history in Morgan College, died last week mourned not only by those in Maryland where for eleven years he has made his home, but by the graduates of Princess Anne, of Howard, and of Gammon, where he taught, and by former parishoners in Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Ohio where he pastored. He was a product of that Mississippi which enslaved Negro boys and kept them ignorant sixty years ago and so does now. Out of ignorance and poverty and prejudice he climbed to earn the degree of doctor of philosophy in the languages from the University of Pennsylvania. Ugly Mississippi swamps had brought forth a water lily. First of all, he was a preacher of the Word. First of all, he was a teacher of the solution of all our problems." But the church to him devolved too much of its time to erecting buildings, planning rallies and begging for collections, and so he turned from preaching to teaching. Here he found leisure to study, to teach and occasionally to lecture and preach. He was a teacher of the gospel, a teacher that carried deep musical tones like an organ. He was a fine Christian gentleman. Youthful-minded, active and optimistic—a cultured apothecary of the gospel of work and hope, he was a young men and women to a better, and broader life. Fortunate would be Morgan College if along the brow of the campus hills overlooking Herring Run; it laid out a college cemetery and the graveyard of its sacred dead the repaints of Dr. O'Connell. The Labels Chaice Darrow doesn't believe in the Christian and the Jewish God. He says so himself. He goes further. He says it every night or on the lecture platform before thousands of listeners who pay a dollar a seat to hear Mr. Darrow riddle arguments of Catholic, Protestant and Jewish preachers who claim for Christian unity, tolerance, and brotherly love. He goes through alone, passes the divine way. It is intolerant, said the Protestant speaker at a quadrangle discussion in Washington last week. Who was intolerant when Al Smith ran for the Presidency? asked the Catholic the pastor, who immediately directed attention to three thousand years of Jewish history. Mr. Darrow referred sarcastically to all of their pretensions. Colored folk who were refused admission to the temple except to seats in the gallery, pealed through the local branch of the NAACP, to each of the speakers. Darrow, the Agnostic, alone responded. He tilted at withdraw unless he regarded as an advocate. So the gallery plan was abandoned for a plan more subtle, and tricky. Effort was made to keep colored folk together in single rows, albeit in no one section. The point is however, that of the Catholic the Agnostic and the Protestant, "the so-called Agnostic alone did the Christian thing." Such was the comment of a Washington minister. Our own goes much further. As we see, Darrow was the only Christian there. Other have only the alabes. Clarence Darrow doesn't believe in the Christian and the Jewish God. He says so himself.

It is intolerant, said the Protestant speaker at a quadangular discussion in Washington. Al Smith ran for the Presidency? asked the Catholic; and the Jewish rabbi, condemning neither, merely directed attention to three thousand years of Jewish history. Mr. Darrow referred sarcastically to all of their predecessors. Colored folk, who were refused admission to this debate except to seats in the gallery, appealed through the local branch of the N.A.A.C.H. to the Ayni Gymnastics, the Agnostic, alone responded.

A Shower Between Congress convened Monday with a full quote of "dame duck" (12 Senators (Dem. S.C.), Mr. Joe Bole Jolee (Dem. S.C.), Mr. Thomas Koehler (Dem. S.C.), Mr. Furnilid Simmon (Dem. N.C.), and sixty-seven others whose constituents retired them to private life four weeks ago are back in Congress for their final session and farewell addresses. This strange custom of permitting defeated legislators office long after election is restored from early days when stage coach drawn by the fastest horses required weeks and even months to transport passengers from mote sections to the capital. From Boston Washington required five days to be appointed if it snowed, no regular schedules were kept. The first president elected George Washington for President, the first Wednesday in February, 1789. Imagination was set for the "first day of March." In thirty days, a quorum of Congress had been able to assemble. John Adams arrived in New York, where Congress was then holding its sessions, April 11, and was inaugurated Vice President. George Washington, exactly fifty-seven days later, was not inaugurated first until April 30, 1789. We elected Mr. Hoover in November, 1922 and inaugurated him President the following March 4. Congress declared the "dame duck" four weeks ago but from now until March 4, 1931, we still pay their salaries and listen to their sad speeches how it happened; and not until December, 1931 will our new Congressman take their seats, less an hour later than in December, 1931 and their sessions December, 1931. Too bad it is that all legislation designed to correct this manifestly ancient and outworn system has been voted down. When the question comes up, each Congressman remembers that he is a potential dame duck, and votes to perpetuate Island Haiti gave Uncle Sam a lesson in administrative efficiency recently, when it nominated, elected and inaugurated the new president in just half a day. Between Mr. Stenio Vincent's election and inauguration, a chance a shower and a change occurred after that, Mr. Roy stepped down and Mr. Vincent stepped up—just like that. No four months between November election and inauguration for the Haitians. Perhaps Uncle Sam need not adopt Haitian culture, surely there ought to be middle ground somewhere. Congress convened Monday with a full quota of "lame ducks" (12 Senators, 58 Representatives).

POWELL Once in Persia reigned a king, Graved a maxim true and wise, Which, if held before the eyes owe the state of the earth. Fit for every change and chance— Solem words, and these were they: "Even this shall pass away."/ Trains of camels through the sand, Brought him gregoriously measured, Brought him pearls to match with these. But he乘船 pearls to match with these. Draught of the mine or main. "What is wealth? the king would say, "Even this shall pass away."/ In the revels of his court At the zenith of his sport, When the psalmis of all his guests jump, he sings the jesus, He amid the wine and wine Cried, "Oh, loving friend of mine! Pleasures come but not to stay; His small pass away." THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH AND THE NEGRO PEOPLE By the REV. GEORGE F. BRAGG, JR. Some time since, the Rev. Mr. Blackshear, or Brooklyn, N.Y., was reported as having said "The Episcopal Church provides churches for Negroes." But Mr. Blackshear is mistaken: the Episcopal Church does not provide churches for Negroes. In the Episcopal Church it is permissive to organize congregations made up exclusively of colored people. In the Episcopal Church, of course, such an organization could not be effected unless desired by the colored people themselves. There is absolutely nothing said of "color" or "race" in the canon law. All through the North and West colored people are members of so-called white churches; in a number of such congregations, colored people are members of the church of such churches, colored men are members of the vestries, the local governing bodies of the church. Since time since, the Rev. Mr. Blackshair, of Brooklyn, N.Y., was reported as having said: "I am a Blackshair of Negroes." But Mr. Blackshair is mistaken: the Episcopal Church does not provide churches for The only way for Negrees to participate in the government of the Episcopal Church, as well as to possess the right to manage and conduct the own local affairs is through Negro parishes. The suffrage is of fundamental importance, whether in state or in Church. It is by this means the suffrage comes from the local government of the church. No Bishop can be elected, laws changed, or assessments imposed, without their voice and vote. Almost any copy of the Journal of the process will disclose the fact, that in the business which comes before that body, the rector of St. James First: African Church is as active, and vocal, as any other member of that convention, and that members of white congregations, or of chapel provided for them by such congregations, they voluntarily disfranchise themselves. The Negro parish has the status of a regular parish and sustains the right and privilege possessed by any other parish.

I read the newspapers daily, yet I see very little that leading men of our group are doing to help the unemployed of our race. During the year of 1918 great meetings were held for men to fight. When they left for France, many tears were shed. Some of these tears were from the suffering of men of support and there is no crying among the more fortunate. They, at least had food, clothes and shelter while there During the year of 1918 great mass meetings were held to encourage colored men to fight. When they were not, some of these men now are without homes, food, or means of support and there is no crying among the more fortunate. They, in fact, had food, clothes and shelter while in the army. Why not hold a mass meeting or otherwise take some interest in the more fortunate job-holders to give some of their earnings to help those in need? Baltimore, Md. COLUMBUS HARRIER. DePriest is 21st. Not 15th Member of Congress, Dr. Brang. Who Tells How Negroes Helped Whites to Ballot Only Later to be Disfranched. To the Editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN: In the Standard Historical Society Supplement (Cincinnati, Ohio), Mr. DePriest is noted as the "fifteenth of the race to see." Correcting the erroneous statement. It may be well for me to state here the names of colored men who have occupied seats in Congress before Mr. DePriest, as the first in the race should be well informed this line. I think it will prove helpful if I add a word of explanation for the benefit of many men. I think it is important to note that a number of young people are puzzled with respect to the election of so many Negro congressmen during the war, and that the states, in the presence of the present lack of representatives of the colored race, from that section on the answer and the explanation. Colored men in the Southern states exercised the right of suffrage before the war, and the Southern states after the war was under a military government appointed by Congress, the bulk of the white people, having taken up arms against the Union. Hence, Negroes just emancipated and the thousands of white "carpet-baggers" from the North, were in absolute control of the situation and fashioned the new state-constitutions in such manner as would be satisfactory to Congress and thereby gain re-admission of such states in the Colored men, after assisting in removing the disabilities of their white neighbors and having them "franchised," were, in turn, "disfranchised" by those to whom the suffrage was restored.

I answered, "yes," then he repeated "Yes?" Thinking that he doubted my statement, I answered. Then he did get angry, saying: "By God, you even this is a white man's country, you might be able to do that in Knoxville or up where you came from, but not down here in the white man's country." And when I said I had been there about six days, he said that I had been there long enough to know better. I was supposed to have been the law. I thanked him very much and was permitted to drive on.

ALLEN READER Bishop Allyne Entirely Within His Rights Says By chance I noticed an article in your issue of November 29, which which I am writing to you about the bishops of the A.M.E. Zion Church, visited a church and prescheduled a visit to the presidee my knowledge. This is an error. The bishop wrote to me that he was stopping en route Southington, Ohio, to Louisville, Dr. B. W., Swath, pastor. He is also to be with me as my special guest in one of the annexes in 1 am Temple Louisville, Dr. B. W., Swath, pastor. He is also to be with me as my special guest in one of the annexes in 1 am Temple Louisville, Dr. B. W., Swath, pastor. Even if he had not so advised me, it would have been perfectly satisfactory and within his authority. A bishop in Zion church is not a bishop of a district but a superintendent of the entire connection; any of the chief-pastors at any time he elects to the field another has been assigned with the authority. A bishop must receive a hearty welcome and unmolested entree to any church and pulpit in our domain. Any other treatment accorded him would be considered an offence. Our practice for we regard the whole of our territory as his parish. While the bishops of Zion Church do differ as to methods and policies, there is bitterness or personal feeling among that group. We have a strong sense of unnessiness and who have a passion for the growth of the cause, the building of the Kingdom and the safe guarding of our heritage. Bishop, Seventh Episcopal District of A.M.E. Zion Church. To the end of the row, We will make a little sing song Right along as we go. We're tolling in the springtime From early in the morn, And we want to see the sunshine On the cotton and the corn.

We're sitting by the fireside We are waiting to blow, Giving thanks to him who guides To the end of the row. GEORGE W. BAILEY. Box 134. Wailuker, Main Ter, Hawaii More Surveys, More Statistics, No Jobs EVERY NOW AND THEN there comes from somewhere in the far reaches of the universe some celestial bodies we call comets. They reveal their nature and then pass on, perhaps to dazzle other worlds in space and time. Such was Dr. Pezavia O'Connell gentleman, student and prophet. Eight years ago, when this writer came to Baltimore, one of the first names he heard was called in a group of college CAGA was that of Dr. O'Connell. The profound impress that he made on young minds was the thing which seemed to stand out. Like all men who help to oblite the shape of the world, Dr. O'Connell bumped up against many obstacles and faced the most practical男男 would have dodged, but unlike most men who lived ahead of their times, his radicalism was of a kind which melted its way into the hearts and souls of him. He did not compromise with wrong—he did not denote nor conviction would mean to him. Always he shot straight at his target and barred his breast that his opponent might shoot back. Although he was a great teacher and a great orator, it was perhaps his simple faith in Jesus that will give him his greatest life in the memory of those who knew him. There are two people who dare to take the teaching of Christ practically, even those who profess to expound it. Study your own minister, or you may attend the church and you will realize how far most of them are from the mark. Deep down in the hearts of every young man and woman is an instinctive urge to take religion seriously. Sometimes the hypocrisy which honeycombs the church as idealism and the turn to doubt and question. But Dr. O'Connell was the kind of a religious leader who always gave instinctive longing for the Faith, a vital stimulus. I do not like to speculate on immortality. A heaven beyond the skies and a hell where souls are punished, to be something which men and women might not be sure. There is one kind of immortality, however, about which no one who knows Dr. O'Connell can doubt, that he has taught us so much and so thousands of men and women. A young woman who had had wide contact with children in Baltimore once told this writer that one talk with him was the whole perspective of her life. There are, no doubt, hundreds of such young men and women. The fact is, some spark of action that he set going might produce a great deal of generations hence. Who knows? One would have to come back to this world a hundred or five hundred years from now to fully understand what the life of Dr. Pezizaia O'Connell has meant to you. Few knew how he thundered against the shams and weaknesses within the confines of religious institutions. Few knew how staunchly he stood against the lack of respect between races and groups of men. White ministers, most of them walled in by traditions which made them bow down to the gods of racial prejudice and close the gates when they need them to meet the sting of his appeal with seared hearts and souls. Likewise, member ministers of his own group received no less flaying when they bowed down to mammon. The grand old man, the perpetual smile, the ringing message from pipit and platform, may never be seen and heard again here on earth, but his smile, his message, flow through his thoughts and actions of many, and may be a vital factor in the course of humanity for many a year. ANNOUNCEMENT by Arthur Woods, unemployment director for Herbert Hoover, that he will ask the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company to make a survey of unemployment before he gets down to the business of providing some jobs for the unemployed in this interesting from a points of view. First of all, it seems almost ridiculous that anyone would need more facts to make at least a beginning to relieve the desperate need for employment. And it would seem even more ridiculous that the survey made by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, as efficient as is the research department of that organization, trust that employment situation than that given by the U.S. Census. There will be no doubt that the Metropolitan will make a careful study of the people reached, and that the government will error in the canvassing of 100 policymakers or even the first 100 families visited by their agents as was in the government figures. The truth is, 100 policymakers are in the government of employed than the total population covered by the U.S. Census, and with this truth in mind we suspect that somebody knows this and that that somebody is interested in lowering the government percentage figures of unemployment. There will be little use of counting some of the men and women who are hanging desperately on to the hope of getting a job when and if Herbert Hoever unemployment committed himself to that if that body keeps on procrestinating, a goodly number of such persons will be starved to death. But, anyway, Hoever seems to be in a hara krii mood these days, and a blunder or two in the in-flight that the privileged won't do much, more harm—no, not much more. The Laughs Behind the News By RALP MATTHEWS According to the latest news release, it is now popular for movie actors and actresses to have babies again. That is just as it should be, isn't the movies supposed to be America's infant industry? It's no disgrace to have a large family, but it's mighty darn expensive. It's all right to marry on the presumption that two can live as closely as one, but you hit a snag when you try to squeeze three in for the same price. They say children are blessings in disguise, the trouble is, some children wear their digizyms all their lives. tues. Babies are very similar to automobiles in their cost, but automobiles have the edge on cars, however, at least you can wear children. One good thing, though, about a filver, matters not how sick it is you don't have to walk the garage floor with it half the night to keep it out. One time if a man didn't raise a family family he was looked down upon. Now he's looked down upon if he does. The first thing the oldtime couple bought when they got married was a baby carriage. The shoal to take got shots at the stork if they see him hovering around the house. Of course, we wager to be suspicious, but we wager that old bird has been blamed for a lot of other people's crimes. The thing we never could understand is that if the stork brings all the babies do so much hustling and bustling around the house? A man who has more children than he can support would do well to eat apples and apples. A man who doesn't like the doctor away and there isn't anything like postponing things until times get better.

The most common, in modern languages — especially the English — the tendency is to use inflected forms of words. For example, the former fourteen forms of the personal pronoun *you* — although, while this reduction was taking place, tw forms of the pronoun *you* — the coined word that received the most favor was "then" — derived from "that one." Using this form, *story* stands. Use every pupil's story, lesson. Another form suggested was "heer" (meaning he or she) for the nominative, and "hiser" for the possessive, "get every pupil study his lesson." However, since competent writers see no particular need of discontinuing the masculine forms, none of the collagened collages received much favor. It is not merely in the pronouns that the masculine form does duty to the feminine form, the writer would say: "She was chairwoman of the meetin", and "chairlady", which a few persons affect. It is also a female graduate of a college as "an alumna", it's a pretty safe guess that the writer or speaker is a female graduate of knowledge of Latin. If he is purporting to speak English, "alumnus" will include both sexes; if he essays to English, "English article" is out of place. Funeral Costs U.S. funerals continue extravagant, the canton of Bremen reminded the country last week. Original investigation occurred three years ago, reasons not yet known to show respect, salve conventions or "impress the neighbors"; (2) the canton of Bremen organized. Funerals cost least in the South, most in the East. Cheapsest are Orthodox Jewish funerals (a p. 11, plain, loose casing), average cost $10,000. Risky Kissing The case came before the local magistrate, who sentenced them to three months and ten days' imprisonment each. As first offenders, however, they were pardoned, but if they do it again, they will be against the law, they will have three months added on to any sentence they may be given within the next five years. The kisses may be exchanged with impunity at railway stations or at ports when steamers are leaving, but anything in the nature of a genius or lovers brings them within the law.

Threat to Eliminate Alien- t from Representative Belie- nner Countered by Threat to Ex- force Fourteenth Amendment. A Sinister Compo- nise Effected. By KELLY MILLER The last Congress provided that upon the basis of the Fifteenth Census, the House of Representatives be appointed to 435 members, to be allotted to several states in proportion to the several populations. The President was authorized through the Census to appoint a appointee which should stand in the House of Representatives and make a different allotment. The has been done. The states have been tentatively assigned their respective number of representatives which will be used by upon further amendment. At the time the House decided upon the basis of apportionment, the different states could not foresee how the new count would affect their distribution of representation went awry. Eleven states have had 27 members when twenty-two other states have lost the same number. Naturally the losing states enter a howl of complaint. No state has agreed upon plan, and the establishment of some other basis whereby state will have any less than the number of representatives it now has. Republican States to Gain, Dry States to Lose It turns out that the Republican states, on the whole, have gained; have responded positively. At the time the putative wet states have been the gainers; while the dry states have been the losers. This gives rise to all sorts of contentions. Not only is the contention involved in the re-argument, but the size and political complexion of the Electoral College. The South and West, which contain most of the losing states, have millions unnaturalized foreigners eliminated from the representation basis. Their argument is at least plausible. If the alien is not subject to the military and patricial requirements of American citizens, then they are given equal political potentiality? Alien Restriction Not Constitutional But all of this plausibility requires ahtwart the Federal Constitution which places the basis of representation upon the number of persons in the several states. The only exception that was made was the complete elimination of the number of persons not free who were given partial representative capacity. The Thirteenth Amendment eliminated this restriction. So that representation is now based upon the number of persons, without regard to age, sex, race, or voting privilege. Even the exclusion of the united Indians has been practiced by lifting the white man as a slave, talk about elimination aliens is purely laissez-faire suggestion. (H. W. McKee, Political) Status Involved But the cunning Republicans, in whose states most of the aliens have countered with the suggestion that if the South is to be represented, the basis of representation, then the Republicans will insist upon eliminating non-voters according to the requirements of the Fourteenth Amendment. But the Republicans, in fact, have the political status of the Negro in the South. In fact these identical provisions actually were passed by the last House of Representatives. But the selections and elections together, and passed to the effect that the South would let the North observe the Constitution, the North would let the South violate it, it is not possible to guarantee legislative proposal ever elsewhere met with the approval of a civilized legislative body. Here, as always, the Negro is the football to be kicked back and between parties, interest, and sections. It now appears that the sensitive apportionment will stand for the simple reason that the different states, parties, and citizens of the United States agree another term than what has been reached. Redistricting in States Will Cause Wrangling The practical process of readjustment will lead to a cat and monkey time between the parties within the several states. Several states, as New York, have a Republican Governor and a Democratic Governor, like Missouri, have a Republican Governor and a Democratic legislature. It is hardly possible that such states can have a common agreement as a general districting. Some states will unilaterally deadlock to elect all of their representatives at large. This the serious effect upon this constitutional completion of the contending parties will result the greater advantage cannot possibly be foreseen. ETIQUETTE 1.

J. JONES, Prop. MANY MORE ARE FED IN MAYOR'S SOUP KITCHENS White - Collar Succor Station Alone Feeds 1.000. 60 WOMEN SEW Churches Co- ordinate Relief Agencies. NEW YORK.—With 190, 000 in its bread-lines—exclusive of those fed in free soup houses or who got rations furnished by the Mayor's committee at police stations—and the opening of a relief agency for "white collar" workers, malingerers on relief and "profiteers" of misfortune, the city wound up its second hectic week of relief for its constantly increasing destitute, and its multiplying misery. Where it will end nobody knows, as it now affects all more or less, directly or indirectly, leaving no race, class, sex, unaffected. The "white collar" succor station was set up downtown, and it was later thrombed by 1,000 destitute clerks, warehousekeepers, sales folk, a practitioner or two, physicians, a pro- sperer (all white). Agencies Need Time Relief agencies require as much time and energy to check malingers and "misery hustlers" as are required to help the foodless, moneyless workers; and duplication, owing to lack of relief work co-ordination, as was anticipated by young Father Bishop of St. Phillips Parish tends to "compound a felony" or waste. One Harlem African man manipulated his "misery stalking" as to acquire thirty Thanksgiving baskets one per person is ample, and the limit. On both occasions that Mayor Walker's committee dolled out rations at police stations many had to go away unrelieved, without any. The first time, the cartons in which each person's rations are put, "ran out" and the second time there just weren't enough rations to go round. No Race or Color There is neither race nor color completed in the relief schemes. The Governor Smith committee is J. H. Hubert, executive secretary of the New York Urban League. Up to now, Negroes have not been called upon to contribute to the relief funds. The Smith group has raised over $3,000,000 of a six million dollar fixed fund to finance Harley-Davidson group plans benefits for the unemployed: their plans, nevertheless, appear to contemplate administering also, which could but add to wasteful duplication. This writer, national head of the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees, has insistently advised the nework group to fund its needs and a fund to help the needy at Christmas, to turn it in to the South fund. "Y" Got Quota Quite paradoxical, yet emphasizing the inescapable truth that "no race can be grouped as a race in this country." was the success of the quote, right in the midst of the worst conditions Harlem ever has known. The quota was $5,000. It was not enough. From Negroes, too. The N.A.A.C. goes ahead with preparations for its benefit wholly in the interests of its own budget. It ranks more or less ago the New York Urban League decided to forego its usual fall membership budget because it was being beine laid off or working extra infrequently because of the toppling of rail passenger travel, their union prepares for a dance to raise funds and fight against the Pullman Company. Ahyssinla, St. Phillips and Urban League Coordinate The established Harlem welfare groups—Abbessia and St. Philips and the League—have co-ordinated their activities. The industrial bureau of the borough house is the house and its charge of St. Allen, industrial secretary. The of- *office force had to be increased to twelve persons. Why, will be readily understood when it is known how thoroughly they have to check all documents, and how gering. Last pay day they stopped three men who hadn't gone to work where they had been sent, but who were still working. Additionally, this Urban League bureau with the police makes investigations of all dispossess orders; many evictions were thus prevented last week. *Men $5, Women $4 Per Day* Only persons put to work at jobs created for them in non-profit institutions are handled there. Men work three days a week, specifically, and $15 and $12 a week. They work but three days, so that all may have a chance. For the week ending Friday, November 16, the aggregate amount received was $3,082. This week began with placing of 298 last Monday. Over $8,000 is expected to be amount reached by the end of the week. The men and women go from the Urban League building but are placed through both Abyssinian and the young Father Bishop agencies. The money is sent up from the Prosperity group, which group holding, shoes, etc. are distributed through the "Bishop headquarters" in 135th Street. 60 Women Sewing Night dresses, little girls' frocks and many other useful articles of clothing are being uturned out by the sixty women and girls, alternating three days a week, in the imminent storm. The New York Urban League's top floor. These operatives are on relief jobs, of course, and their finished wares will be turned over to Santa Claus that will be used to keep the delicacy from makenking to find only empty stockings on Christmas morn. The girl operatives in the sewing rooms are those with dependent mothers whom they supported until depression forced them out of work. Apple Selling The situation has, of course, brought the proverbial ruthless "hustlers". Apple selling to relieve unemployment, for instance, also is being used to ruthlessly fry fruit here a compulsory license fee. In this emergency, however, apple hawkers are permitted to sell without licenses. This has brought so much attention to the compulsory vendor that many of them also have joined the unlicensed street corner apple butcher. Dopes Another feature of apple hawking is that involved in the handling of the fruit by those likely to be diseased, who have not undergone a physical examination, as required by law. Apple vendors do to do. But the most serious allegation yet brought forward is that regular dope dealers are hawking "dope" apples under the guise of "apple juice". Doing openly what they have hitherto been compelled to do surrenitiously. Out of the evils of the times however, comes one blessing to Negro Harlem: the silencing of the fatuous race problem solver.

A Rev. Smith of Chicago, was recently appointed in place of the Rev. H. W. Evans, moved to Chicago, strong feeling against the change that the minister asked to be sent elsewhere. The Rev.

By EVA JESSYE NEW YORK—As might have been foreseen, all manner of rackets have sprung up like mushrooms to flourish on the sympathy generated by the unemployment situation. People are frantically reporting to an institution to obtain assistance, and those more sorrowful are turning every bit of ability to account in devising ways to pick up a few stray dollars. At the sign of real winter Harlem has run to cover, financially speaking, and even the most heavy handed are paring expenses as think as existence will permit. This can be noted from market to gin mill, and if pawnshop activity is an economic warfare there is indeed an ill wind blowing down the Harlem Avenue. Apple Sellers Scheme Whoever started this apple business started something. Harlem cormers have blossomed out in boxes of the ruddy fruit, but the novelty has fallen off the table and the impression by the mere sight of a man standing beside a box of apples. So the apple salesmen have fallen back on the scheme that neverris, Wilfred Johnson and the McFarland AMONG THE THANKSGIVING DAY hostesses was Bebe Townsend, who hostesses at Bebe Townsend, and Hilda Goffe, Candido Garcia and Hilda Goffe.

It is necessary each year at about this time to ask this community to contribute to the work so that the budget defines theி n g of the company. This is the result of the purely service features of the branch from which no income can be realized. There are many features of the Y.W.O.A. program for which people are able and willing to pay. These ideas, rooms, rooms, air, air for possible such investments are made self-supporting and any surplus from them is used to decrease the budget deficit so that the burden upon the community will not be too great. All work with girls in clubs, the information desk service, and some services, etc. For the category of non-income producing departments.... This has been a difficult year in which to raise money because of the general unemployment, but many loyal friends have responded to the appear of the branch and were writing about the branch and were writing about the thousand dollars of the branch quota of five thousand dollars, and we wish to extend most grateful appreciation to both campaign workers and donors. It is gratifying that the campaign has gone over a long time, and we are hand-moneyed to see, of the other the demands on the branch are greater than ever. So many of the girls are hard hit by the economic depression. Many of them are not able to meet their expenses in the residence and in classes, and certainly a great many have had a great time to be in the luxury of swimming. The cafeteria is attempting to meet the needs of the girls by planning, more than ever, low-priced meals which shall still be nutritious and appetizing. The Employment is running way behind its budget because there are so many social welfare cases which must be handled free of charge. In many cases girls have reached the point of desperation and must have, not only credit, but immediate financial aid. One friend of the branch has given a certain amount of money for the original investment in boxes of apples, and this money has been used for the women and girls who are most hard pressed. After the original box is purchased the girl keeps herself supplied. Everything possible is being done to help girls find jobs and to tide them over and keep up their morale until they do. MRS.

Some parents never still, remember the first apple was easily disposed of by a young and attractive woman, and send the daughter with the most "It" out to preside over the apple box. The apple selling business, in the beginning an honest attempt to earn a degree in applesauce, degenerated to "applesauce." "Hot" Hose The Saturday night peddler, once a God-send, is becoming a nuisance. Vendors of all sorts of wares haunt the beauty salons, barber shops and all places where the customer is pinned down under the ministrations of the attendants and therefore unaware. Most prevalent is the peddler of "hot" stockings at one dollar a pair. In these days of depression, the same hose may be obtained down town for eighty-five cents. Then there is the hat man whose "latest thing in French felts" can be duplicated for the same price at any Eighth Avenue shop. The intriguing chap carries around a stock jewelry, consisting of hard-painted beads, lockets, earrings made from glass and artistic dabs of paint. Prices range from fifty cents to two dollars. Darting furtively in and out are men who conceal under their coats bottles of supposedly imported paintes. The man is the coat man, the man is the lingerie man, the mocket man. This business is a "tight" racket, and an outsider who attempts to "horn in" is promptly ejected by the proprietor. Merchants Cater Downstreet: charge account stores are canvassing the Harlem apartment houses aided by the landlords, providing service and severa weeks free rent to prospective tenants, and all sorts of inducements are offered responsible tenants to remain. Dance hall report a heavy falling of the floor, complying to the situation by larking, bizarre advertising, feature nights, contests and prizes. Bankrupt sales rage like an epidemic and stores with indifference with indifference are waging steady advertising campaigns. Harlem's leading dance hall is awarding an automobile weekly for the lucky number drawn with each paid admission. The sales suffer. Although the used prices for day's work at employment agencies is fifty cents per hour, making a total of four dollars for eight hours, the advantage of the over-supply of labor and refusing to pay more than three dollars a day. So acute has the problem of employment become that the average house worker is willing to work of kind for a v. kind of money. Jobs are at a premium, and those f-erate enough to have steady jobs are sticking to them like glue, taking care of their health, laying off hosts of workers, and reducing wages of those retained to a ridiculous figure. All holidays have to be made up by overtime or extra day's work. Malmey laundry, the manager, without consulting the workers, cuts their wages at the end of the week. They can either take the cut or quit. A woman shirt ironer, in a Fortish Street private laundry, states that her wages were cut from twenty-four dollars to eighteen, then on Saturday night of last week owner hand-operating was all he could afford to pay. This woman put in from eight to ten hours daily. In most cases no decrease in business be made to the employers as soon the general condition as an alibl.

Diamonds bring now only one-fourth of their value, except in special cases. "You shop at the store" shops the Saturday before Thanksgiving. "Brisk business was done in loans on summer suits for the holidays," was allowed, though some of the suits appeared almost new, and of good quality. Although the evening women's overcoats "Is there no limit to what people will pawn?" I asked one clerk. "Anything from a baby diaper to a woman cheekbone." If to prove the truth of that statement, a jihn, bedraggled woman approached the counter and held out a pair of kid gloves. She accepted fifteen cents gratefully. A pawnship located in the theatrical district confesses that theatrical folk are the pawnshops best friends. For the most part a creature of uninterest will walk down a path worn to some favorite "uncle" who will let him have any amount within reason on an article prized highly by the actor. The theatrical folk can be depended upon to redeem their goods. Superstitions and affectionate, they appear to form stronger attachment for their possessions than most people and will not be content to let them remain in the hands of strangers. The story is told of a certain well-known vaudévillian who has carried for a full quarter of a century a silver heated case, as a guardian of the country, shipped back and forth from remote parts of the country to the actor's pawnbroker who knows that, regardless of the amount asked the pledge will be redeemed. The amount allowed is many many times the value of the cane. Some stage folk will accept a pawn tick; folded only, a certain way, and will part with everything else before surrendering a "good luck pawn." Sentiment is the strongest factor in the redemption of pledged goods. Women are more prompt at redeeming pledges than men and men are more prompt in order to forestall carelessness on her part, she will purposefully pawn something to which she is greatly attached so she will be certain to redeem it. Men are usually indifferent and value their service from the standpoint of serviceability. # PAWN BROOK Throwback sentiments to the winds, women frequently pawn their wedding rings. A very small amount is allowed for wedding rings for they are saddom redeemed and issued to the woman.

Shaw University, which is conducted by the Baptist Mission Society has constantly been in a state of unrest, since April, 1927, when President Peacock fired Louis K. McMillan, Instructor, who opposed segregation of college students in the university dining hall. Since then the alumni reported the school dirty, neglected and in disarray. Dirty students in the university students went on a strike and eventually the president's retirement was announced at the end of the school year in June, 1931.

The puritanical atmosphere that now prevailed the ancient and honorable halls of old Hampton Institute is beginning to pall on the student body who want the present order of things to be appreciated and dancing, according to an open letter sent to the administration board, this week. The letter is printed herewith: Dear Sirs, has been made of the new spirit and attitudes of the Hampton student body that seems to have come in with the appointment of the late Dr George P Phenix as president of this school. It would be a weariness of this spirit to reveal the means this spirit has employed to manifest itself. This reanimation—perhaps creation is the better word of spirit so evident as to be editorialized and spoken of during chapel services. The Phenix's contribution to the wellbeing of Hampton. And so it is. An Era of Hope It has been called an era of hope and there is a great danger, as far as the students are concerned, that, in some particulars to be disclosed there will never exceed the bounds of hope. There is no occasion for delay; let it be understood now and clearly, that this is a protest against the inappropriate, untimely, and, even more, unjustified, rangeed by a committee—on which, of course, are no students—appointed by the administrative board to prepare for the entertainment of a modern student group. Nor are those, or that persons, who select the music concerts escaped from this criticism. Separate Socials First of all, consider the Saturday evening programs thus far this year. The first Saturday evening was devoted to the Y.M.C.A., sponsored by the Y.M.C.A. and the Y.W.C.A. which, in the case of that for the boys, was a masterpiece of insipidity consisting of speech-making, hand shaking and lemonade-drinking. The second Saturday night, October 4, will long remain prominent in the minds of the students now here because of two notable, though contrary, events: the first sensible mixed introductory social to be given here, and the breath-taking sudden death of the students to occupy the presidency of Hampton. With no regret did the students forget the pleasures of the former to pay Housewives Profit by Home Economy and Appliance Demonstrations.

The lecturer, an authority on drama, was disgraced with an authority on drama, and the students surrounded by two thousand Boisterous cold weather, sweeping in from the western section, broke over Baltimore on Thanksgiving day, chilling out and paralyzing all but a few attempts to spread cheer among the needy, while the city spent one of its most quiet holidays. Regular religious services were held in the churches which devoted the morning to offering prayers of thanks. No concerted distribution of baskets was noted in any section of the city, most families sitting down to turkey and ham. Ames M.E. remembered the unfortunate by sending a contribution to the home for the aged. Following its usual custom the Metropolitan Methodist Episcopal Church served all, the members of the N. M. Carroll Home for the aged Folk and any aged person who attended, with a turkey dinner. Children at the various Catholic Homes in St. Joseph and the Mission Helpers, were served special Thanksgiving dinners. Churches Join Hands Many of the churches held joint services.

Mr. Allen urged the students to participate in athletics in order to strengthen their physical structures and to cultivate the fine art of sports-management.

A restatement of its credo, its sanctions, and its demands in the vernacular of the modern world. The church is still speaking the language of Christian history. The college group of this day is thinking in terms of an age in which the X-ray, the radio, the airplane are almost bound for expecting this group to be interested in a religion that still wears its swaddled clothes, and speaks in a language bound for expecting in the horse and buggy as against the automobile. The supreme need of religion today is a challenging pulpit. Our pulpists have too many lean, diluted men in them. They need men who have what they need, and come to grips with the big human problems that break the heart of God and threaten to wreck our civilization. We need to think through the problems that baffle and defeat them, will get a hearing in this age and in any age. But the preacher must be on dialm, dead dongas; will not attract attention.

America's ranking white actress, opened here Tuesday evening in "Scarlet Sister Mary." Broadway first nighters, many of whom have made red-letter days of their career, thirty-since since her start, applauded her rapturously—she was their heroine attempting one of the most difficult roles in her career and a Mammy to the caros who said she could not do it. But the critics did not share the enthusiasm of her adulant admirers.

All the actors and actresses in "Scarlet Sister Mary" are white, the only Negro being a group of singles.

Lucky Mr. Moody's Narrow Escape Saved His Life and Unique Muskrat Farm from Deadly Gangster THE FASHION WEEK By DONN BRYAN One of the most unusual spots in Northwest Missouri is the Rex Muskrat farm owned by Dwight L. Moody, formerly of Cape Giraudear, a venerable colored gentleman who, through pluck and integrity, came into possession of five thousand dollars for the capture of a dangerous train robber. The farm covers approximately fifteen acres, with ponies and all the facilities for the breeding of muskrats. Beginning with a small working capital, Mr. Moody has built up a business that pays him approximately fifteen thousand dollars a year. These fur bearing animals are in great demand and numerous furry are bought on Moody's farm. Women of fashion are enamored come from as far as St. Louis to procure muskrat fur for the coats of chickens of today's ultra-modern style. I sat before a green log fire in the rustic house that stands near Maryville, Missouri, in a comfortable rocker and heard Grandmother Moody recount the hair-raising experience which gave courageous Dwight his start. He was a porter at the Idana Hotel in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, when he overheard a conversation which denoted unmistakably that the speakers were planning to rob a fast express train at Kaiser, Missouri. Dwight, after careful preparation, succeeded in "getting the goods" on his men and in thwarting the robber. That story has been told in this magazine, but cost the muskrat farmer his life as well as the lives The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, December 6, 1930 LOS ANGELES—A petition of voluntary bankruptcy was filed by Lincoln Perry (Stepin Fetchit) last week.

The reception was held at the recently re-opened Joel House. Miss Anderson, who became an overnight sentation in this city following her debut rectal, was honored with a Mime (Gahler). Three groups of songs composed Miss Anderson's program for the reception: the first, from Beethoven; the second, from Liszt and Grieg; and the third, from one of the critics present reported that she sang "with a gloriously warm, dark-colored mezzo soprano." "Entirely astonishing," he continued, "was her expressive ability not only in the German language but in that which is called German Kultkul." Miss Anderson will return to the United States in December. Moody's arrow Escape que Muskrat Farm from Gangster A litter of muskrats destined for miliady's expensive winter coat of his happy family, is yet to be recounted. The bandits were imprisoned, those who survived the capture, and not a single member of the band escaped after being surprised at Kaiser on that fateful night. But there was one of the gang who was ill at the time of the hold-up and this person sought a method of squaring accounts with the individual who was responsible for the notorious attack. As soon as he was heard from the hospital where he had been confined for many days, he followed Dwight Moody to Northwest, Missouri. Dwight was showing several strangers over his farm when the bandit appeared unobtrusively and joined the others. He was, of course, unknown to the colored farmer, and Dwight talked as friendly with him as he did the others in the village. He explained the scheme of raising the bandit for fur, etc., and of how tremendous was the demand for muskrat coats for militia. It was Harlem Rambles Harlem Rambles Tyler Gets Lowdown on Savoy Hostesses. B. GEORGE D. TYLER BY GEORGE D. TYLER NEW YORK. — I realize that it is cheaper to carry an escort to the Savoy Ballroom than to depend upon the hostesses for an evening of pleasure, but after grabbing a giant at those twenty-eight gorgeous famine beauties, one wonders if it isn't advisable to leave partners behind, shut one's eyes and pick at random from th. house's instructresses. Now don't take my word for it, but run up for a night and decide for yourself. A week ago, I decided to drop into the Savoy, see if any change had taken place since Charlie Buchanan had replaced Faggin, then too. I had not been into the Savoy since the night it opened, but I saw a few evenings in the sister ballroom in Chicago. The New York hall, although not as elaborate as the one in Chi, has a better layout, the room is more pleasing, one always below or above the streets, while in the Windy City most of the entertainment is sought on the street lev- Well, back to Faggin and Charlie. Faggin made a flop of the Chi Savoy, after making a try in New York. Rumors spread that the ballroom would be turned into a garage out of which it would abide. Did the other big guys not to let a garage mar the exquisiteness of South Parkway. While I. J. Faggin is flopping in the west, the astute Charlie Buchan is rising "in" the east. We don't know if the ballroom is shelbling success, not by any means, but it is progressing and under the direction of a colored man. Two Bands Soft lights, over head, on the side lines of the walls and at our feet, behind the orchestra floats gray clouds, the band's totalizing waltz strains by Chick Webb and his Chicks, to add a breath of romance to the evening. Then we burst into a dizzy dance that takes, like a flower, from the Lindy Hop, and now Andy Kirk and twelve Clouds of Joy, the Kansas City boys hold forth. We forget all else and turn our attention toward the selection of partners, and we appeal as we are on an experimental tour so we grab a gob of tickets and pick the girl on the end of the bench. It is a waltz, lights are low, couples pick out the darkest spots and lips move around. My partner is tall, well-built and a beauty and as we dance we talk. She discoveres the fourth estate and becomes a member of the fourth estate and begins to require for a certain newspaper writer, then she finds that I am that gink, ha! hal! he! he! It is none other that Gene Abbey has the sister of Fulton Alexander. Gene and I have a friendly argument as to whether the girls are "tax dancers" hostesses, or instructresses. She wins with the Behind the Scenes A real understanding of the chorus girl cannot be had at a theatre nor can one obtain a real understanding of the hostesses at their young ladies with ten of their lives was evident. Humor, seriousness and what have you. First, very few men can resist Olivia's desire to allow them to be like beauty; Esther, rather wild but a laugh. Marble she cat: while we talk and then the others, each one wants to give up some day, to marry her, to be married, to be remarked, no real man would want his wife to work in a Ballroom as a hostess because it is a jibe job Dancing with anyone, to make excuses, ticket, too every man that one dances with has not always dancing on his mind, he too likes to get in his line of jibe. And so it goes. Beautiful girl's like gowns, lovely dresses and tasting browns, looking fit as any queen, the realization of a Savoyager's dream. a glowing account of the success of a man who had discovered a new way of quickly amassing wealth, and his audience listened with rapt attention. There were no secrets about the business, Mr. Moody pointed out—but that was like him, he would have been frank in his disclosures even if there had been certain hidden methods which he had employed in achieving a manageable success in the muskrat business. When then the sun, a copper ball was sinking in a flamboya, green and gold sky, painting the ponds in pastel shades, the party returned to the rustic house for supper—a fried chicken 'supper' that promised much and fulfilled every promise with epicurean delicacies. Some of them had declared their willingness to invest in the farm by buying stock in the event Moody wanted to promote a corporation. That, in short, was really the motive of the visit. Muskrat farming was something new. It had never been so successfully followed before. All the muskratts they'd ever seen were the banks of the 102 River in steel jawed traps set at the edge of the water. Dwight consented to think it over, and was cheerful and good natured until the last one of the men, save one, had departed. This man was the bandit. "I'd like to stay all night," he prefaced, "if you want to stay here." Dwight eyed him over cautiously. He was immaculate in blue serge, reserved in appearance, and had an honest eye. So Dwight Moody asked his mother and his wife, and they agreed that it would be satisfactory to keep the stranger. The bandit was led up a small stairway to a bedroom under the eaves, to give a lamp. "I somewhere have indigestion in the night," he announced, as Dwight was about to leave the room, and "I wonder if it would be convenient to slip down to the kitchen and get some baking soda. You needn't mind bringing it up. I hate the sight of the stuff. But I merely mentioned it in case I need it." At this interrogation Dwight Moody retorted: "My base is wide open to you. Just take down these steps and turn through the door on your left."

Something started Dwight to complete wakefulness. He sat up in the clutch of a cold fear. The room was in total darkness but he was sure that he had seen a circle of light such as comes from an electric torch. And then it appeared again. In the glare of the flashlight open and the holder of the light standing in the hall at the foot of the steps. The man turned into the room. Dwight sought to calm himself, although he was decidedly nervous. "The other way, please," he expostulated. He thought the man was looking for the kitchen. The stranger came on, not in the least ruffled. Nonpulsed, Dwight Moody, who has the courage of a dozen lions, waited until he had crossed the threshold. By this time he was awake and steeled against fright. He had been in tense situations before. He measured the distance between the bed and the encroaching guest. Possibly ten feet. Nice shooting distance. But there lay his slumbering wife. He was undecided but aware that he would have to take some sort of action. It was apparent that the man meant his physical harm. "Bell," he cried, and leaped out of the bed in his hand. It was the same firearm he had branched with such telling success at Kaiser several months before. "Stick up your hands, Moody!" came the steel-lined voice. "I'm going to kill you. If you don't resist me I will spare your wife. Other Dwight saw that he held a pistol in his right hand. The gun was leveled at him in a direct line. Two reports shook the room. Dwight had fired first. The gun had not expected to shoot. And both men said. But it was Moody. He had sent the bandit who died. He prepared before a doctor could be summoned. But he left a confession behind him. To the neighbors who had been attracted by the shooting, he told of his attempt to even account with Dwight Moody. Yes, this venerable colored man has well paid for his muskrat farm and deserves the success he is enjoying.

The green body she wore, a reflection of them, then water nymph at play in some wild, watch of a fantastic dance beneath the waves. for othr Installment 1 A NARROW ESCAPE John Northington paused. He had seen a single tuft of leaves quiver high up in the black green canopy of the jungle roof. Before he could move, a thin, zinging sound slit the hot stillness. With the noise, the man threw himself prone on the rotted green carpet of the overgrown trail. A slender shaft winged with brilliant red feathers, struck the bole of a great tree beside the trail with a soft thud. It trembled there for a space and stood rigid. Before one could take a long beak, the feathers collided over. The movement brought the tree between him and the straight-line of space leading upward to the still quivering tuft of greenery. Immediately he drew himself树 and pressed his body fat against the tree. The disturbance above hesitated. Over at the left, another movement began. John Northington did not know what he was doing. He around the bole of the tree, as the first disturbance circled jerkly like some creature jumping from branch to branch behind the heavy curtain of tangled leaves and vines above him. Suddenly the jerkling movement ceased. Northington, facing it, but out of line because of the tree trunk, paused. too, he fired the gun that he held dangling from his right hand. His brown hand showed pale at the knuckles as he sighted along the barrel. In the center of the oscillation above and behind him something moved. "Bang! Zing!" The sounds were simultaneous. The man threw himself forward a second time even as they shattered the turtle into sudder startled life. A Nude Rescuer Amid a great rustling of leaves, crackling of branches, and excited scurrying of small, wild things, a naked brown body slithered, bumping and thumping clumsily through the vine-covered branches in front of him strike with a dull thud on the ground while the old man stood. But this time a red winged shaft stood quivering violently in the protesting muscles of John. Northington's broad shoulder, while behind him a sudden commotion jerked him around in spite of the pain. What he saw made him forget for a moment the stinging wound in his shoulder, out of the branches, above, grappling and grapping, staring and biling in a grimly silent silence, two figures hurtled to the ground, almost at his feet. One. the naked figure of a man, clad in nothing but a flaming red breath cloth, still clutched in his left hand in Northington's shoulder had been shot. The weapon impeded his efforts to fend off the wild attacks of the most startlingly beautiful creature bounded man had ever set upon him. Without a moment's hesitation John Northington leaped into what he saw was a losing battle for the woman. The Uplarbed Arrow With a swift, strong blow, straight from the shoulder; he struck out as the snarling face of the man came in line with his fist. The blow took the writhing figure straight on, the point of the chin. His head snapped back with a clicking sound. There were bones and the cracking of broken body crumpled up suddenly and slid to the ground, the head twisted at that. THE AFRO-AMERICAN Not for nothing, had his fame as the crack wrestler and all-round athlete at Howard University cemented a friendship between himself and Ramon Montez, multimillionaire South American Indian, his room- and class-mate for four years. The encounter had taken only a moment. But in that second the tremendous muscular exertion had loosened its arm to such an extent it fell to the ground. It was entirely unbearable. As he looked down at it, John Nortingham's face paled. The girl sprang forward to his side. Her own beautiful face was bloodless. "Quack, seer! it ees the poisoned arrow of eee nairn guard of black BLACK LILLEE. It is death eef I do not sock ee polson. She was upon him like a bolt from the ceiling, rounded body clinging to him like a panther cat upon a tree bole, she applied a pair of soft rosy lips to the wound high up and out on his shoulder. For a space there was a tense silence but for the steady suction and spewing forth of the tainted blood. The man relaxed entirely to the ministration of the girl. At last it was done. Suddenly she slid from her place against him. The Mysterious Drum Message At her feet the long grey-green length of cloth lay in a crumpled heap. Trembling with a momentary relief, she stooped and with a single graceful movement swathed herself in it. "It eiz the altair cloth from the temple," she spoke as she folded it about her. "Eet iss at the evening worship I get the message from the drum beats that carry so far from the camp where my mother was from. Eet iss carry to the temple grove of the BLACK LILLEE where I am choose for the bride of the so sacred, but so evil, flower by the theses priests of our people." "So—" there was surprised wonder in Northington's voice, "you are Dolores Ramirez. You are the fancies that Ramon told me of. It is you that I was to find and bring to him. God! what a girl! I my heart weren't already engaged. I'd be a dangerous threat to Ramon's peace of mind." "But—" the girl's voice was anxious. The compliment had no meaning to her ear. "What did you did not know that the priests had spit in the camp. They know that wen he mak the sacred call of the drum beat in his priest robe he mak' othair call. They know he hat been in the se. far away American school and he teach me strange theings wen' he come to us in the summers so they watch.

She smiled up at him. byly by these othair trail for the priests wen' they com' quek after us. They mus not fin' she shuddered. "Come!" Her Flance's Camp Without another word the girl glided like a shadow into the almost obliterated side trail that led at right angles to the one on which John Northington had been travelling. The man knew that each sound he made behind her, however slight. was a message telling her that he was there. Her little body under the grey-green wrapping that gave the rippling muscles full play as it followed the smoothly flowing curves from neck to knee, reminded him of the flow of muscles under the keen pelt of some snake-like texture. For what seemed endless hours, she stepped and faced him. Just beyond he caught the glimmer of water. Sudden recognition flashed into his eyes. He stepped closer to the girl. Their eyes traveled instinctively in the same direction. There, just beyond the sluggishly flowing tropical river was the glint of brown canvas through the trees. It was the camp where Ramon Montez awaited the outcome of the precarious empire upheld and suspected by his fellow tribesmen over whom he was traditional ruler and priest), did not dare to enter. Educated as he had been by an ambitious father, whose contact with the traders was the foundation of his great wealth. Ramon Montez had imbibed with his knowledge, other things. He knew that the BLACK LILY, worshipped by his people for so many generations because of its strange blooming, was but a clever ruse of the priesthood to preserve their own power over an ignorant people. The Inner Cult He strongly suspected that the annual choice of a BRIDE for the flower was merely a cover for the obsessions and lewdness that he knew existed in the INNEST GROVE deep in the fastnesses of the Jungle and a year the common people could come. Even then they might not enter the holy of holies. That was kept sacred to the high priest-Jonharta—his predecessors and successors. When the word had come to him on his graduation night at Howard that his own childhood sweetheart, whom he had taught much of the language and customs of his new world, was this year the eminent the help of his friend, John Northington, in what he meant to be the rescue of the girl he loved. And, John Northington, who loved adventure as he loved a good fight, was nothing loathe. He hailed the chance as a Godsent opportunity. So posing as a scientist, he had to face the danger with Ramon only to find that the final and most langerous bit must be undertaken alone. Priest and Ruler, though Ramon was, his people began to suspect him when they found that he would have nothing to do with the new bride chosen for him, nor would he exclude his stranger friend from the sacred councils. As John Northington and the girl gazed, a sudden low moaning sound was wafted to them across the water. They exchanged starred glances. The sound grew and swelled in volume until it was like the moaning of a snake. The sudden thump, thump, thump of drums beat into it. A keening wall cut across the welter of sounds like the sweeping stroke of a sharp knife; another, and another—pandemium was loosed. Ramon in Danger "Madre de Dios!" the girl's voice slurred and broke. A sinister spiral of smoke was slowly ascending from among the ring of trees where the brown canvass glinted. On the cry, the girl flicked aside the altar to keep the leaf forward. With the blinding light, John Northington's strong hand shot out and gripped her. "Ramon miel Ramon miel!" Conquered by the man's superior strength, Dolores slumped against him moaning the words. A black, corrugated head moved in the slime at the edge of the river toward which the girl's leap would continue. The wrist of the cocoon slipped slowly into the water from where he had仁 waiting. The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, December 6, 1930 the fallen altar cloth around the girl. "You can do Ramon no good by sacrificing your own life, my dear," he said gravely. "But they hat put him to the forture, senor! Do you not hear? They hat discover that he try to take me from the BLACK LILLEE before the hour of Bridal Blooming and it is the torture death. The drums they tell me. Madre de Dios—" The sounds from beyond the river suddenly broke into staccato cries. The girl's head dropped hopelessly. "It is ofer. They mak' the chase Horoscope (Continued from last week) Saggittarius The Archer Marv High Ibrahim Al By J. A. Noted in His Shoulder." of the evil one from the village." Her voice was weary as of one forever done with hope. For a long moment, John Northlington stood in silent sympathy above the girl as she rocked her body back and forth as she grew fainter and died away. The Dangerous Trail "Well—we will have to get out of this." There was the finality of courage that, beaten, does not accept defeat, in the man's voice. "Do you think there is any danger of our being followed?" He directed the question to the girl. "There is always daintie in these forest but there is a trail here by the river—perhaps a pilogue?" She paused. Northington stood for a moment, sweeping the vicinity carefully with his keen, brown eyes. His survey completed, he drew himself erect as if ready for a race. "All right, senorita, we are going out of here. Let me help you." He stretched out his hand, but the girl was already on her feet. It was she who pointed out the faint trail just within the line of trees that followed the river bank. They took it. "We've got to find some way to overcome river: besides walking." Northington spoke over his shoulder as he half turned to scan the sluggish crocodile infested waters. A sudden rhythmic splashing came faintly to his ears. The girl behind him wrapped in her sorrow heard noble screams. The sounds came nearer. Yves Ninon's clammy shirt wrapped clear of the shielding vegetation through an interstice which opened onto a crescent-shaped bit of black muddy beach. Silent<sup>1</sup> Enemles Watching for possible crocodiles that might lie motionless, half-sunken in the black slime, he did not note immediately the nose of a rud prurogue, filled with silent figures wrapped in grey green-hooded cloaks, until it shot clear of the bend, into open sight. The cry from the grey-cloaked figure erect in the paddle announced that they had seen him first. Before he could regain the shelter of the line of trees, the air around him was filled with singing arrows. The evening was rent with savage cries. As he lunged for the comparative safety just ahead, the whole world seemed blackened by whining, singing as arrows whirred and swing around the fleeing man. A sharp cry of pain rang out just as Northington disappeared in the dense shadow of thick undergrowth.

Horoscope Saggittarius The Archer By PHENOMENA During the next seven days, starting with December 6 and ending with December 12, persons born in this sign are quite successful in their business dealings, investments, and affairs of the heart. I stated last week that this week I would deal with fortunate days, dates and numerals, also mention proper investments, so here goes. Sagittarius persons usually possess speculative nature which leads to an inclination to invest in stocks, bonds, etc. This they may be able to do with a fair degree of success but it is also well remembered that ments, so here goes. Saggittarius persons usually possess a speculative nature which leads to an orientation to invest in stocks, bonds, etc. This they may be able to do with a fair degree of success but it is always well to remember that there are proper investments for persons born in an sign and also improper investments in the same there are fortunate and unfortunate days, dates, numerals, etc. The Saggittarius / person would usually find real estate investments the most profitable in the long run; other investments to be considered should be building and loan associations, bank stocks, large corporation stocks and good sound business enterprises. Neither mining nor oil stocks are suitable investments for the average Saggittarius person. For some unknown reason persons born under the influence of Jupiter (the ruling planet for Sagittarians) enjoy taking chances with their money and they most generally lose, therefore wise judgment is necessary where a Sagittarian person is concerned, as far as investments are concerned. The fortunate days for those of this sign are Tuesdays and Fridays. The fortunate dates for this month for those of this sign are 8, 9, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 27, 28, 31. The unfortunate dates are 2, 3, 15, 16, 22, 23, 29, 30. The 29th is a very dangerous date and all persons should watch their step so as to avoid accident and injury. The most fortunate numerals for those of this sign until December 21 are as follows: the fortunate single digits are 1, 5, 12, 21, 28. The fortunate triplets are 338, and 610. It must be remembered that the above numerals are for those born only in this sign. As to vocation, persons born in this sign are more inclined toward professional life or position than to occupational life. Law, medicine, writing, journalism, art, scientific followings, transportation, work, salesmanship, lecturing, teaching, inviting, entertaining persons. The men are very capable metal workers and cabinet makers. These persons are their own worst enemies due to their moody natures, it is well to remember that moodiness breeds mental depression which in turn reacts against the nervous system, and many such cases materialize into mild cases of insanity; and not all are mild cases either, in fact many become violently insane. Learn to control the moods and Sagittarius will be happier for it. Success in the direction of the application of the positive mental qualities and the control of the negative qualities. NEXT WEEK: Sagittarius will be continued with the general health conditions, talents and disposition. Advice to Girls Julia O'Gara BY JULIA JEROME A gentleman of Atlanta wants to know. My dear Mrs. Jerome:— I am depily in love with a young widow who has three children. I hesitate to ask her to marry me ecause of the children. Step-fathers have such a bad record that may be it's impossible to be a good one. I don't want to be a good one I hake up making me. Then too, my friends say I will be jealous of the love their mother bears them. So far I don't feel any of this jealousy but being human I probably will. Still she is the woman of my heart and I want her. ANXIOUS. Every situation has its disadvantages as well as its advantages. We would move make a move if we listened to our friends and our tears. I take a chance with the kiddies. I bet you make a good father. I don't see why we should not love another man's, or woman's, offspring. Among the natives of the South Sea Islands, children are considered less as the offspring of any one man and woman than as the future generation to be reared and loved by the whole community. And as their way to regard children, And as for being jealous of a mother's love for her children—that is certainly sophomoric. The more a woman's maternal instinct is exercised the better woman she will become. It will make her more tolerant, more understanding and sympathetic, emotions, like the muscles, improve with exercise. Good luck to you! Marvelous Genius of Mohamet's High-born Negro Descendant Ibrahim Al Mahdi was Ruler of Islam and its Greatest Singer By J. A. ROGERS Noted Author PART II Ibrahim, in order to show that he had forever abandoned all thoughts of mounting the Mohammedan throne again, decided to become a public singer, as was said. This was a despised occupation, reserved only for freed slaves and persons of the lower classes. Public singers entertained at feasts, and their themes were in praise of wine, the beauty of women, and the languors of love. They were thus held in abomination by religious folk, much the same as actors were regarded in the last century, or cabaret singers are by some people today. From Caliph to public-singer was indeed a humiliating step. But it was the only way of saving his life. A Marvelous Voice The misfortune had its compensations, however. Because of his royal birth Ibrahim had been restricted in the pursuit of his beloved art. Formerly he could sing only secretly behind a curtain, except when he was called to the intimate gatherings of the Caliph; now, however, he was free to win 'fame and admiration, free to sing where and when he pleased. Throwing now his whole soul into his art he cultivated friend and foe alike his marvelous voice, and his equally great power of improvising. The astronomer, Mohammed, said of him: "I have for several years been one of those privileged to attend the private affairs of the Caliphs Mamoun and Moutassem, and this is what I have noticed: as soon as the voice of Ibrahim was heard the people in the palace, and especially the valets, slaves, and laborers would drop their work and draw nearer not to miss a single note. When Ibrahim had finished, and another singer took his bow, all returned to their home without wishing to return. I can give no more striking example of his influence upon all natures foreign and rebellious to education than this." Instantaneous Composer Many are the stories told of Ibrahim. His brother, Mansour, relates the following: One day, he said, the Caliph had sent for Ibrahim to sing in spite of repeated messages, Ibrahim _ did not go. The next day somewhat alarmed at his negligence, he went to the palace. Learning that the Caliph was in the menagerie looking at some newly-arrived lions, Ibrahim and he started thither, stopping on the way to select a lion carefully tuned and did in his robe. When they arrived in the menagerie the Caliph was standing with his back turned and was looking at one of the wild beasts. He had been at a feast the night before and had not yet recovered from the effects of the poisoning. Stealing quietly in, Ibrahim took the lye, and began to sing, improvising: "I emptied a cup of wine for my pleasure Then I drank another to correct the effect of the first." The Caliph, on hearing this, applauded: "Well done, uncle, you've brought back galety again." And ordering a cup of wine, the Caliph drained it while he listened to the remainder of the song. "What struck me," said Mansour, "was this: My brother that day held himself constantly to the higher octave of the instrument without showing the slightest sign of fatigue. He did even more than I would from telling it all he charged with falsehood. Nevertheless, I cannot help adding that as soon as Ibrahim had commenced to sing, the ferocious beasts stretched their necks in his direction, and approached bit by bit. They ended by supporting their heads on the bars of the cage until the song was finished with the music. "The Caliph," he adds, "was so impressed that he forgot to chide Ibrahim for his neglect of the day before." Ibrahim would stir his hearers to such heights of ecstasy that they sometimes forgot that they were in the royal presence, and commended brethren for which they might have paid with their lives. Kissed the Hem of his Garment One day he was singing for the Caliph composition of his own of which the following is a rough translation: "In describing the beauty of my beloved I dream of the pure gold in the coins of the ancient Egyptians Of the pearl in its shell in the depths of the sea, which is the despair of the fisher Or of the dreadness of the gold that the glider places on the leaves of a book". On hearing this, Djar-far the Barmecide, was so moved that, forgetting that he was in the royal presence, he rose, and drawing his silken train after him, walked up and down on the divan uttering cries of admiration. At another time the side-de-camp of Taber, the great general, was so overcome by slight that he went on to Bharim and kissed the hem of his jeweled helm. On another evening Ibrahim went to the palace when a contest of song was in progress. As prizes, the Caliph had before him a gold of gold pieces; another of gold, full of silver pieces; and a third of purest crystal full of amber. The rivalry was intense; each singer hoping to win a prize. Spurred Money for Performances Ibrahim sang and won the first. He sang again and the second; at the third contest the Caliph so stirred by the praise that he showed a thousand praises on him. At this, Moussoul Arabian woman playing the oud. Visiting him one morning, Bedl took a lute and sang for him. one hundred unedited songs. a public singer, remarked to Djaml, another singer: "In making his living, like us, he is taking the bread out, of our mouths." Djrahim, overhearing the remark handed the three prizes to them: "Take you, the salary that is your due," he said scornfully, "and leave to me what is but a pastime." He spared no pains in perfecting his art. He 'delved' into higher mathematics in order to get a better sense of nature. Nature had endowed him in a voice such as none then living had ever heard—a voice in which power, lyric, quality, and flexibility were admirably combined. Intense study and good taste had done the rest. Ibrahim, however, was not without powerful rivals. The most noted of these was Ishak, son of Moussaouli, both court singers. The rivalry between the two became a veritable musical battle, which added considerable excitement to the court of Mamoun. His man might not have come down to us through the mist of twelve hundred years. Ishak was a composer of the first rank, and held on to the old forms and the old songs. Ibrahim was an innovator; he believed in 'giving the spirit free rein. Moreover he believed that his royal birth gave him added freedom. One day when he was Callil, he said: "I am a king and the son of a king. I sing according to my fancies. What it please me to sing. I sing:" Proclaimed his Own Ability Each was an unparsing critic of the other. Ibrahim wished to stand without a rival and, in his opinion, other respects, he was hard to the point of cruelty in this. Conscious of his ability he said one day: "Were it not for the handicap, of my noble birth I would accomplish such prodigies that all, would be obliged to agree that I have never had and never could have an equal on this earth." Once when before the Caliph he made a wager with Ishak that he would sing in four tones. Picking up an instrument, he then sang a higher octave, next, in a chord gravy, and finished in a bass octave, that is to say he had four octaves at his disposition, or three registers; tenor, baryton, and bass. At another time Ishak sang a composition of his own that had pleased the Caliph, unusually. He then sang the songs were in danger, sought Ishak during the entrace, and asked him to repeat the song. Ishak refused; Brahman pulled off his jewelled vest and offered it to him, whereupon Ishak repeated his song twice in a low voice. The Caliph, learning that Ibrahim was going to repeat Ishak's song hurried back to his seat. This song Ibrahim now sung, adding notes of his secret, which alone he knew. His success was complete. The Caliph gave him six purses of gold, all of which he handed over to Ishak. Purned by His Creditors And at this time Ibrahim needed money badly. When he was Caliph and the finances of the empire were in a bad way he had borrowed large sums of money from his friends to pay his army and to carry on public works. His creditors demanded the sums, and threatening to tell the Caliph. In vain Ibrahim pleaded with them that the money had been spent for the use of the State. In order to maintain his supremacy, Ibrahim went sometimes to cruel lengths. He had continued to steal from the church and one day when he was passing the home, of Moussouli, Ishaik's father, he heard "Moussouli" singing a song of his own composition, and repeating the difficult passages while his slaves: marked the time, Moussoul was to sing that evening for the Caliph. Hiding under the balcony Ibrahim memorized Moussoul's song. That evening when Moussoul had scored a triumph, Ibrahim arose and charged him with plagiarism, offering to sing the song and made up a performance, whereupon Moussoul was reproached by the Caliph. Later, however, Ibrahim told the Caliph all, and sent a rich present to Moussoul. The victories, however, were not always to Ibrahim. Once at a concert twenty singers were singing before the Caliph, ten to the right and ten, to the left. Suddenly Ishak exclaimed that one of the singers had made an error. Ibrahim, who had not noticed it, ridiculed his rival. Ishak, to prove his assertion ordered those on the right to stop and those on the left to continue, pointing to the eighth singer from the right he declared that it was his man's fault. Taking him from the ranks Ishak hake him sling, whereupon the error was discovered. The Caliph, amazed, turned to Ibrahim, and said "Uncle, cease henceforth making fun of Ishak. A man capable of detecting a single error amid twenty threats which are singing, and 84 chords which are vibrating, deserves respect." Severe with Female Rivals Ibrahim was even more severe with female rivals. One of these was a very beautiful woman named Dilak, who had hosts of admirers. One day he wrote a song against her, the rough translation of which runs thus: "Our purpose: thou art the miscreant of the human race. Wouldst thou have all the men of the world lovers? In mixing thou: the fat with the lean dost not thy soul rise with disgust?" Dilak to get even with him sent to him a friend of named Bedi, who complemented him with "a complexion of gold" and a sympathetic voice. Visiting him one morning Bedi took a lute and sang for him one hundred unedited songs. Ibrahim in a transport of delight sought her behind the curtain where she had sung. But she fled, and when the great deal of time, money, and pain in finding her. Saved Beautiful Slave'. Life At another time, however, he saved the live of a beautiful slave. The Caliph, hearing one of his songs about a camel, had ordered him to teach it to the girl. It was difficult, and the girl hastiled several times at an intricate passage at which the Caliph swore a great cath to have the girl thrown from the palace windows into the fire if the three innocent attempts. Ibrahim, seeing that, her life was in danger, changed the air to agree with the girl's error. Ibrahim continued his triumphs until he reached his fifteenth year, when a great dispute as to "whether the Holy Book was created, or whether it existed before the Creation." Ibrahim, as a member of the old Arab party, and one of the learned men of the kingdom, sat as one of the judges. Mamoun was greatest with his training to torturing those who did not agree with his view, namely, that the Koran was created. The judges, wishing to please both sides, gave evasive replies, whereupon Mamoun ordered several of them to be put to death, including Ibrahim. But before the sentence could be delivered, Mamoun, Montassen, coming to the throne, carried on the dispute, but spared Ibrahim's life. The dispute lasted six years, during which Ibrahim had been forced to abandon his lyre. Then one day the new Caliph ordered him to appear at court with his sings.

GUESS, NEMESIS TO UNION'S CIAA TITLE HOPES HAMPTON INST., Va. — While spectators froze in a biting north wind that played up and down Armstrong Field, the fighting Panthers from Richmond invaded the Seaside grounds in a hopeful try for the C.I.A.A. crown. They succeeded in making the Ironmen play their best game of the season. The Hamptonists, themselves unable to ascend the throne, decreed that Union should not wear the crown, and in one of the greatest battles ever staged on Armstrong Field proceeded to wallop Union 14-7 on Thanksgiving Day. Guess Scores Two men played the games of their careers. Bee: Guess the Mighty- and the little 145-pound quarterback. Army Beam. Guess was playing his last game, Beam his first complete one. The opening whistle had hardly blown when Beau Guess tore off 16 pants two plays and then ran 23 yards, stuff-arming Washington and rounding Union's right end. A penalty for "piling up" forced Union back to its two-yard line and, put Guess in a position for a touchdown. Briggs followed him to score the extra point. Union then tried several ineffectual advances and began the triple passes which were to add so much color to the game and score enormous gains. Three minutes before the quarter ended Union received the ball on the 20-yard line and Washington tried to kick out against the wind. He managed to place a boot on his own pants 21 yards to the nine-yard line, and as the quarter ended, the ball was in Hampton's possession on the five-yard line. Score in First Minute of 2nd Quarter Once more Beau Guess recorded a six pointer and Moore ran the extra # received Briggs's kick-off on his 15-yard line and then the Union machine began to move; a forward pass brought a lateral pass, 22, Armistead gained 17 around Hampton's right end but Union lost eleven yards on Sam Gaines but union lost eleven yards on the next two plays as Bell hit Armistead far behind his line. On the fourth down, with twenty-six yards to go, Yancey heaved a pass which Briggs blocked. As a last resort he heaved another and L. Williams snatched it, running 21 yards to the five-yard line where Beam collapsed against him and against a stiffening Seaside line brought a touchdown as Robinson plunged over. J. Williams carried the extra point over on a forward pass. The wind was against Hampton, and he remembered Union failure to kick the ball to his team out to the 40-yard line and the ball go on downs. He managed to keep the ball out of the Panthers' claws by super strategy and the half way to Hampton maneuvering in midfield. Union Opens Air Attack Union opened its air attack early in the third quarter and made considerable gains but Weatherford and Miller who had come in for Hampton, totalled a greater yardage through the line a1... around the ends than UHampton did on the airways. Hampton played 42 yards in the last five plays of the quarter and when the last period began was on the 30-vard line. Lose Last Chance to Score With three minutes to go Hampton again advanced to the 26-yard line only to lose the ball on downs. The hirtytwenty winnethub mfwu wavy game from the 26-yard line completed a pass on this 26-yard line. Sam Gaines, Hampton's big all-American star, did not appear in Hampton's first string.

Fortunately the C.I.A.A. championship argument has been settled out of court and the attempt of Union University, with the aid of my old friend "Scoop" Johnson, of Norfolk Jernel and Guide, to swipe a great big title from right under our very noses has been frustrated in the nick of time.

The plaintiff, Morgan, had played eight games, winning seven and tying seven.

Aided and abetted by the wily "Scopo," whose real moniker by the way is Wiley, the Virginians figured themselves out a championship on paper by an artful manipulation of the digits. By raising the argument that a team unbeaten keeps its record intact, the defendants did wilfully on the day aforesaid with malice aforethought set up the contention that tie games should be thrown out completely, disregarded, ignored, by which subterfuge they sought to avoid the law, escape punishment for their failure to win and punish a title from the rightful owners on the grounds that because they had not been defeated their percentage was still 1.000 per cent. The sad part about it all, gentlemen of the jury, was that the officials of the association, in whose jurisdiction this trial was being held, had no definite law on the supreme hand. Different members of the supreme bench advanced wise but unfounded opinions and some broke down and confessed that because this particular issue of tie games had never arisen in all its might in determining championships they had never taken them very seriously. Hear, Ye! Hear, Ye! Now, gentlemen of the jury, as men of sterling integrity, honored and respected in the communities from which you come, unhased and unawayed by emotionalism, unprejudiced by sectional rivalry, here only to hear the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, you will agree with me when I say that in the words of the Danish king who sat down upon a piece of Lima rotten in Denmark."

ST. PAUL TAKES N.C. INTO CAMP Tigers Break Jinx to Cop Turkey Day Tilt. BY GEORGE T. STRAYHORN LAWRENCEVILLE, Va.-The Tigers' jinx was broken here Thanksgiving Day when they defeated North Carolina State College, 6-0. The game started with St. Paul kicking the ball to State's 20-yard line to Stroud who brought it to the 40-yard line, where it remained for four downs. The Orange and Black team then proceeded with an aerial attack and Jones in throwing long pass to Murphy who raced 25 yards for a touchdown. The Old North State team showed some of the Tiger spirit when another long pass to Murphy brought the ball to Murphy's goal, and they held fiercely for four downs. Malone relieved them by end running for eight-and-ten-yard gains, until the St. Paul team buckled down and they easily for the remaining periods. One play in particular dazed the Tigers and that was a rapid criss-cross play which made possible many gains for North Carolina. LINE-UP ST. PAUL Baylor Baylor ..... L.E. Baylor ..... L.G.

GRIFFITH STADIUM, Washington, D.C. — In a contest void of thrills, a slightly battered and highly nervous Howard University Bison eked out a 2-0 victory in the third quarter of its annual Thankgiving Day Classic with the Lincoln University Lion before 15,000 spectators here, Thursday. The defeat of the Lions which was partially brought about through their efforts or lack of them, is the seventh consecutive loss to their ancient rivals in as many years. Howard made its winning score in the opening of the third quarter when the Lions forced Hall to kick and the punt placed the ball on Lincoln's 7-yard line. Lamar essayed to kick, but. Walker. Howard's sturdy center, bravely tilted to block the kick, oval bounding beyond the zone, automatically registering a two-point tally for the Hilltoppers. Muff Own Touchdown The Howardides snatched another chance to score out of their own fingers when Washington, a substitute, found himself on the field halfway between the scene of play and the bench when Lamar fumbled his own goal line and the ball was recovered for a touchdown success, the whole Blison team punched upon the pigskin. The score was ruled out when Bernie Hughes, substitute, quarterback for Lincoln, called the referee's attention to the twelfth man on the field as he was making a mad effort to retrace his steps a second after the ball had been snapped. Neither of Howardides scores were gained from the team's efforts by hard football but by the Lincoln team's lack of initiative in meeting its opponents' goals. On every occasion the Lion's safety man preferred to wait on the ball, would lose from ten to 15 yards on the rebound and be plumed in his tracks on the on-coming Bisons. This cost them the game, as their offensive was far superior to that of the victors. It led to the foray for 15 first clogs to the Howard's for 15. Aerial Offensive Weak Both teams were weak in their aerial offensive. Lincoln tert tern passes, completing cally two for a 12-10 victory. He completed seven, completing one for five yards. Howard was more fortunate in intercepting its opponents' overhead game Lamar's Toe Fails Lamar consistently outkicked Hall of Howard, getting off long punts both with and against the wind while the Howard booter's toe seemed off, his tries shooting high into the air for gains as short as ten yards. Lamar's toe failed him at the crucial moments, however, when on two occasions he sought to clinch the game and the ball was thrown into the ball had been advanced to the 15-yard line in Howard's territory. His attempts were barely missed passing between the uprights, as a packed grandstand held its breath. Marshall in Every Play Harmon, Baskerville, Wallace and Lamar stood out for the Lions contributing what few occasions there were for the spectators to rise from the floor and displayed the finest individual exhibition of the game both on the defensive and offensive plays. The Howardites showed a woeful lack of trick plays, while the Lions found difficulty in working their lateral and triple passes, gaining little distance on several occasions. Howard's Penalties Howard's team played an unusual game of loose and rough football, drawing 110 yards in penalties. Only 15 of these were imposed for offside, while the remainder were for roughing. The ball was brought but though added by the free ground gained through the r' opponents' penalties lacked the punch to carry the ball over. Time a Fooler The time of the game deluded many as to the place at one o'clock. Many thought the game would be called at the usual hour of 2 o'clock. At the end of the half, only 8.753 had passed through the turnstiles. Many had remained at the dances that kept going until 2 o'clock. Between the halves, the Howard rooters, with the R.O.T.C. band, marched on the field and sang their school songs as the crowded grand-stairled their hats in the air. The community Centers stand in gaudy uniforms, performed a skate dance. The weather was freezing cold, the spectators wrapped their feet in blankets and used other improvised methods of keeping warm. Prominent citizens from all sections of the country were in evidence in the boxes and on both sides of the grandstand.

The entry of the local college into the conference as a national contender in football was not taken seriously by the members due to the fact that until the past three years the record of the hill-toppers in this line of endeavor was not consider-able. Morgan's rise from the prepara- not taken seriously by the association members to the detat that within the past three years the record of the hilltopers in this line of endeavor was not consider a impressive. Morgan's rise from the preparatory school class to inter-collegiate calibre took place almost unnoticed within the past seven years. Hitherto games with such schools as Lincoln, Hampton, Union, and Howard, looked upon by these schools as mere practice games that resulted in scores of 60 to 20 to 0 with the Bears on the shire. Morgan's current record of defeating seven of the eight conference eleven shows a marked advancement in the team's prowess since the first time they made a bid for collegiate recognition in 1922 when the first game was played by the University and Morgan was played in Baltimore.

The principle upon which the team worked was that each player was to perform a definite task of taking care of his man first, then proceed to the second action. The battlefield was timed to be at a certain spot in the line at a definite time. The linesmen were to open the hole at a given count and the perform a definite task of taking care of his man first, then the secondary action. The backfield was timed to be at a certain spot in the line at a definite time. The linemen were to open the hole as a player and the ball carrier timing his paces from his station to the line was to be through the hole at the precise moment. In this way a smaller player could continually aid in gains through a larger player because it was only necessary to remove his opponent for a fleeting second.

Young Peter Jackson, of New York, is to battle Juan Cruz, bantamweight champion of Mexico. Jackson, a former Baltimore boy, has been going like a house on fire since he has been under the management of Gene Flaherty. He has met and defeated some of the best white and colored boys in New York and vicinity. In twenty-six fights he has not lost a decision. The former Baltimore boy will be remembered some will meet as Jackie when he battles Cruz, who is a real two-fisted fighter and a great showman. In his eastern appearances the Mexican has taken the fans by storm. There has always been a request his re-appearance and he is not requesting any trouble in getting matches.

Football Answers BY EDWIN B. HENDERSON (Head of the Department of Health and Physical Education, Junior and Senior High Schools, Wash, D.C.) 5. Why is it that in some places a more militaristic attitude prevails the part of spectators and players towards visitors and officials? This is a real big assignment to cover. There are a number of facets to this. But here goes with some analysis of the situation. In some cities and neighborhoods, the spirit of win and win at any cost is so strong that the facts of a better team or superior playing are 80-YARD DASH BY BORDENTOWN DEFEATS STORER BORDENTOWN BORDENTOWN, N.J. — Bordentown Manual Training finished the season in a blaze of glory when they deated a powerful Storer College, W.Va. team in their annual训林 giving Day Classic before a record crowd at the Bordentown Field, 19-2. It was Homecoming Day and a caravan of private cars and buses hundreds of former students and friends of both institutions from New York. Philadelphia and other points. Bordentown kicked off to Storer on their 10-yard line. Three tryes failed to advance the ball and Storer kicked into a strong wind. Bordentown had the ball on Storer's 30-yard line. Here the Bordentownians crossed up the dope on the first play, a pass, Chavis to Rollson, and they made a first down on Storer's 19-yard line. Four running plays were employed to put Chavis over for the first touchdown. The try for point field. Shortly after the second kick-off Storer punted, Chavis fumbled and Storer had the ball on Bordentown's 30-yard line. The Wildcats were charging and tackling so viciously that when Jackson tacked Captain, Thompson, Storer's outstanding capt, the latter fumbled and before the ball struck the ground, Atwell had caught it and offended the ball before he hauled down on Storer's 10-yard line. On three running plays Chavis went through the line for the second touchdown in the first quarter. A few minutes before the second quarter ended, Chavis standing on his 30-yard line passed 25 yards to Pelion who caught it and put him on the touchdown with 35 yards for the third touchdown. Chavis bucked the extra point. The half ended 19-0, Bordentown leading. The second half found both teams fighting with all they had, but neither had the scoring punch. When Jackson, of Bordentown, was on to punch on his own goal line in the third quarter, Arms of Storer, broke through and blocked it for a safety, as well as the possibility of putting some more teeth in certain existing laws. All Southern Team and Rating I am hoping to have all the available data at hand so that the release for the week of December 22 will carry my choice of first and second, and the honor roll of outstanding players of a great number of teams over the country. Further, by the Dickerson rating, I expect by the team of the Atlanta Conference well as the claimant for national honors. I feel that the Dickerson rating is the only logical and equitable method of attempting to rate teams of so diverse regulations and character, and schedules attempts, games and sports writers for various schools are again requested to forward to me at once scores of all games played during the season and the three outstanding players. Atlanta's Week-End Menu The week-end for Atlanta will some of the best football of the season. Also two football titles will be awarded. On Friday the Tuskegee Tigers will come to town for a game. Field. If the Tigers can defeat Morris Brown, they will have to toped the last hurdle to their fifth conference title in the last six years. They will remember the brilliant game played by Morris Brown last year against Tuskegee when it scored more points than all its opponents had scored during the season. The Morris Brown team this year is stronger as it was as sure of completion of its forward passes, as evidenced by three or four which were not completed in the Clark game simply because the receivers could not hold However, Tuskegee has shown a marked weakness this season against a forward pa's attack, especially if masked by a good run. Brown has exhibited ability along these lines and should play a game even more close than last years. Civil War On Saturday, out at the Clark Athletic Field, Atlanta's Civil War will be completed and some team will secure possession of Dr. E. G. Benden's play for one year the Morehouse Clark Panthers meet the Morehouse Tigers. Comparative score, dope and street talk give the Tigers a decided edge over the Rams. But Morris Brown on Thanksgiving Day was a vastly improved team and the Tigers will have . . . raw awakenness to-estimate Chief Alkemy aggression. Clark has everything to gain and nothing to lose. A win from Morehouse will give it the city championship. A tie will crown the Moor Tigers. This game will come near growing the largest crowd of the season. Fisk vs. Langston On Saturday, out at Langston, Oklahoma, Fisk University will meet Langston University to decide which team will pass from the picture to the team. The game will leave both in the race, but a loss for either means oblivion. But there is another interesting and significant angle to this game. Th. two coaches were to be named. This time the game will be noted for their years of athletic rivalry, Tubby Johnson, coach for Fisk and former-halfback at Fisk for four years, faces Zip Gales, at end morehouse in their annual tour. This team graduated with honors even at two victories each. Saturday, somehow, there will hover around the field the traditional background. Each will want a victory and although comparati: scores and knowledge of respective ability, give that to Zippe Langston team will not be beat until the last whistle blows. Bench Talk Six point matter leads this article Clark and Morris Brown Tie Before an unusual high crowd, the Vikings battled the Clark University Panthers to a 0-0 tie and again proved to Chief Alken that Thanksgiving games with Morris Brown just can't be won by his teams. The game early developed into a playful wester Bakers. Clark and Morris Brown, in which Baker usually had the advantage of from ten to fifteen yards except on two occasions when Williams pulled surprise to short kick formation which salped over the heads of Clark's safety men and rolled frong yardage. Morris Brown had two chances to score in the first quarter but lost one chance on a tumble and down to try a forward pass which was incomplete in the end zone. Clark's one big chance to score in the fourth quarter with less than five minutes to play, when Mike Roberts pulled off a tackle and run place the ball on Morris Brown's 12-yard line. Three downs netted a loss of three downs. The downs were attempted a drop-kick from the 30-yard line which hit the uprights and bounded back into the end zone. The game was hard fought and exceptionally cleanly played, with very little to choose between the defensive specialists within their 20-yard line. Morris Brown made the greater number of first downs but lacked the scoring plays inside the 20-yard line. For Clark, Reeves, and Reed, the defense tackled close out, while for the Morris Brown team, Skirlock, fullback, and Reid, tackle, were prominent on defense and offense. Morehouse Edges Alabama State The Hornet football eleven of Alabama State Teac. College exhibited a strong contest with the strong Morehouse aggregation, but had to be contented with a 3 to 0 defeat. The margin of the Morehon's victory hinged on a goal that victory had to take advantage of the Georgians had failed to take advantage of several br. 'ts that came early in the game, Jones intercepted a pass attempted by Alabama State's own territory, to put the piskim in scoring position for the Tigers. The Hornet line massed together and for three downs the Tiger backs rammed the forward wall in vain. On the fourth down, the Tiger backs dropped back and kicked a beauty. I field goal from placement which proved to be the margin of victory. Both teams put up a good battle and played alert football and batted out for the Tigers, while the Frazier brothers, William, A. D. Brown, and Captain Coger were outstanding for State. S.C. State Smothers Paine By defeating Paine, 33 to 0. S. O. State moved near the Paine, undated championship of Georgia-Garolina or South Atlantic Conference. The game, made it logical contender for the S.A.I.A.A. championship, lacking only the required number of game: to be eligible for the statewide college on Turkey Day, December 6th is looked forward to as a means of clinching the title. Langston Wins Another One Langston Wins Another One the scalp by whichever college on Turkey Day is a score of 39-0. This leaves only Fisk in the path of the Langton team before begin to assume national assignment. For the victors, McCain and Weaver were the outstanding players, while Gross and Captain Cage put up a creditable fight against overwhelming Talladega Win: Last Game on Schedule. Talladega closed a very indifferent football season by defeating Lane College: 14-7. Three players, Captain Garner, Porter James, and W. Garrison, who are members of the present senior class. On Friday and Saturday, December 5 and 6 the Southern Conference will meet in the University. This meeting is expected to have a representation from the entire 12 members of the organization, as so assemble members. Although the conference has decided not to declare a championship, I expect some statement will be issued, concerning the same. suen this meeting the basketball schedule will be completed. One of the important things which will be brought to the attention of the players is theinate baseball as an inter-collegiate sport among teams of the conference. Various reasons have been given for this step — mostly financial. It is further expected that the conference will act upon certain rumored violations during the past season discounted when the home team these crowds are often beyond the control of the school but often the fault lies in the fact that the school itself does not play in the game and an excellent training ground in the control. The incident of the damage done by Princeton students prior to the Chicago game resulting in a suspension of eighty-one is an instance of perverted ideals. Civil War Fisk vs. Langaton PRINCESS ANNE, Md. — According to the current issue of the Princess Anne Alumni Bulletin the entity with the full-fledged state school "owned and operated by the State of Maryland and becoming in a complete sense an institution of the Maryland" a designation which it has had for the last two decades although it has carried the label also of one of the schools for Negro youth of the M.E.

The schools are unable to support their schools because of their very uncertain income. "But frankly, we regret to see this come about. Memories of his life and mortal souls of the academy linger in the hearts of all the older timers." According to Edward N. Wilson, registrar of Morgan College, Princess Anne Academy is a land college, directly responsible for the University. Jr. ad and the Federal government. Can't Enter Standard College Its courses of study are not dictated by Morgan College. Students entering a standard college having pursued a junior college course in a land grant college enter with a serious handicap. This will be doubtless changed as the course in the land grant colleges is standardized. In the earlier days, according to the Bulletin, all graduates of Morgan had received their early training in Princess Anne Academy and in later years there have been no Morgan graduates who were Princess Anne students. The staff of the new bulletin includes the Rev. Daniel L. Ridout, 18, editor; the Rev. Robert W. Cheers, 13, contributing editor; William H. Hayman, 04, circulation manager; Lida L.

LIE COMPTE State Game Warden With the season for wild fowl hunting now in full fowl, it is well to recall some of the prohibitions placed on game hunting by the Maryland Game Division. The season which began on November 1, lasts until January 31, inclusive. The law prohibits the hunting or killing of swan and wood duck (summer duck), at any time. Bag Limits It is unlawful to kill more than 15 wild ducks of all species and 4 wild geese in any one day; it is unlawful to have in possession more than 30 wild ducks and more than 8 wild geese at any one time. It is unlawful to take out or ship out if Maryland any wild fowl except a licensed hunter of Maryland may take out as personal baggage two days' bag limit as provided by law but he must produce his hunting license when requested. It is unlawful to ship out of this State more than two days' bag limit in any one week week and in shipping fowl, same must be in shipment, tied by head or feet and tagged accordingly, or, in a container slatted so that the birds are visible at all times. No Night Hunting It is unlawful to hunt at night time. The State law provides night time to be one-half hour after sunset until one-half hour before sunrise the following day. The Federal law supersedes same and provides it to be unlawful to hunt between sunset and sunrise. The Federal law supersedes same and provides it to be unlawful to hunt wild fowl from any boat of any description, except that sink box and bushwhackrigs are legal on the Susquehanna Flats, Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the months of November and December, and Saturday added during January. Sink boxes are legal on the waters of the 'Isle of Wight and Chinoese teague of Wight County and County and Tars Bay north of a dawn from Middle Hoopers Island Bridge to the tree line on Barren Island and on Hong River in Dorchester County. In all other sections of the state, it is unlawful to hunt wild fowl from any boat of any description except a skiff used in connection with a booby or brush blind may be used for the retrieving of wounded or dead wild Ten Gauge Gun It is unlawful to hunt wild fowl It is unlawful to hunt No. 10 gauge bird from the shoulder Territories It is unlawful to hunt wild fowl on the waters of the Patuxent River and its tributaries and on the waters of the Wiseomie River. It is unlawful to hunt the Tuesdays and Thursdays during the months of November and December. It is unlawful to hunt wild fowl on the waters of the Chester River in Kent County below the Chester River. It is unlawful to hunt Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays during 'vember and December, except it shall be lawful to hunt wild fowl on Wednesday in the month of December on the Chester River and tributaries between Bem and Points Wylie Farm and Durungs Creek. No Sunday Hunting I is unlawful to hunt wild fowl in any section of Maryland on Sunday. Due to the drought condition which has prevailed throughout the state, the Canadian authorities are to the effect that the sportsmen of Maryland must necessarily expect a decrease in the wild fowl supply for the season of 1980-31. This decrease will cause more concern to birds in areas such as are found along the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries. Ala. State is Host to Touring Seminar MONOGOMERY, Ala.—The American Inter-racial Seminar on a tour of ten southeastern cities to study inter-racial conditions, under the Institute, with No Building in 1867, Now Has Plant Valued at One Million. DR. MORGAN'S GIFTS Dr. O'Connell's Death Casts Gloom Over Celebration. The growth of Morgan College from the Centenary Biblical Institution founded November 27, 157 with nine students, one teacher and no building, to a college plant with 474 students, 29 teachers and sixteen buildings in 1330, was shown at the Founders' Day program held at the college last Wednesday morning. The event which had been planned as a closing celebration was overshadowed with gloom on account of the death of Morgan's best loved professor, Dr. Pezavia O'Connell, early the same morning. Early Presidents Dr. N. M. Carroll, one of the first nine students, gave a sketch of the presidents before Dr. John O. Spenco to the institution in 1902. Former presidents were Dr. J. Emory Bound, who served from 1929 to 1982; Dr. John O. Spencer, 1988; and Dr. John S. Wagner, from 1888 to 1901. Dr. Charles Edmund Young was acting president from 1901 to 1902, preceding Dr. Spencer. Dr. Morgan's Gift It was in 1880 that the name of the institution was changed from the Centenary Biblical Institute to Morgan College upon a gift of Dr. Littleton F. Morgan, a member of the Baltimore Conference of the M. E. Church, which enabled the school to purchase the Saratoga Street building and to offer college courses to both young men and young women. Dr Morgan made this gift at the same time that his made a will and left the land, the proceeds from which went to Goucher College for thirteen years after his death instead of to Morgan, for which it was intended. This error was just recently brought to light and the matter adjusted. Dr. Frank H. Porter, former professor of theology, related several incidents which occurred during his stay at the school. The Rev. John H. Nutter, member of the first graduating class, composed the facilities of the school on Saratoga Street with those of the school today in its new location on Hillen Road. He, so reviewed the general progress of the school during the twenty-eight years of Dr. Spencer's presidency. Worth Over $1,000,000 The college began with a $5,000 grant from the general conference holding classes in the basements of churches. It now has a plant worth over $10,000 with an endurance of $80,000. Music was furnished for the occasion by the college chorus and male glee club under the direction of Mrs. Shirley G. McCanna. This was the first appearance of the newly organized glee club. Ringing and Secretary J. Brownlee, was most of the Alabama State Teachers College for a full day's program Tuesday. President H. Council Trenholm welcomed the group and presented report to the College which served as the basis for the discussions in which the first citizens of Montgomery to reply were G. W. Lee, J. T. Alexander, H. C. Ball, and the Rev. J. Plus Barber. The moon sessions were led by J. S. Lambert, of the State Department of Education. STRAIGHT Money Back Guarantee It really does the work!

MORE JOBS MUST BE FOUND SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATION regarding children in public and semi-public places. Remarks by Raimka,白色教授, white author of Interacial Commission—Friday's session: I want to call attention to the aspect of vocational guidance in American education—the vocational guidance committee. Nearly every problem that has been unearthied by the various committees affecting Negro life goes back to the insecure and narrow economic foundation for Negro life. "We must have a broader economic foundation for Negro life. Negro life cannot find itself properly balanced in American life and I know of no more proper basis than the problem of those who deal with Negro youth, trying to prepare them and relate them to those vocations which ultimately give the broader base for education and that have if Negro youth, to be near finding its place on a level with the rest of our American citizens.

WHITES CAN MAKE REPORT EFFECTIVE FLORENCE WILLIAMS (Little Rock Arkansas); I guess we all have hobbies and probably mine doesn't bear on the general report so much as it does on the thing that is near and dear to the hearts of the group that I request to ask for as you fine men and women of the white race who are in attendance, upon this conference go back to your various States, particularly in the South—for it is there that I am located, it is there that have located the past 10 years it is there where my interests, among the group of my people the boys and girls of the Negro race "I am hoping as you go back here, particularly that you ladies and gentlemen will create and help establish within the rank and file of your people and your team, and for us Negro workers who will help, and who will endeavor to put over this program as it will be gotten out by our team," he said. "The program, that you will pave the way for our getting it over, thereby elevating the opportunity for the Negro team to be started and a fair chance in the race of life. (Applause)." WOMEN'S NATL. ASSO. OFFERS ITSELF WOMEN'S NATL. ASSO. OFFERS ITSELF SALLY STEWART (President, National Association of Colored Women);Mr. Chairman, we feel quite delighted to have you listen in on this conference, as we are an organization that has worked for 3 years trying to build character into the Negro units of this country, starting with approximately 50 women who were really qualified to do that sort of work. We believe that every phase of this work will touch some of our people somewhat, and I believe that I should be doing an injustice to our organization to allow this congregation to know this plan and our aims in connection with the work that is so nobly planned by the White House Conference. Work Among Negroes For my years, we have been trying, to touch every phase of uplift for the Negro child, and for the last two years we have been trying, in our department work, to be placed in a position where we could work on the building of character realizing that character is home and that we must teach and make intelligent motherhood, that we must make of the physical entity of the home something that we might be proud of, and that we must teach the child in the primitive and formative years of his life. So we should like to have the White constituency all over this country know that in their cities we have women who are members of the colored Women who are trying to work on this particular phase, and we offer ourselves and our organization to the members of the White House Conference for women who can work in the work that has been outlined here.

VAN PHILLIP INGERClinical Professor of Diseases of Children, Columbia University - Sub-Committee Vs' report, Thursday; Negro Problems Studied A Negro Problems Studied In preparation for our in- preparation on the health con- taminings among the Negro population, almost 10 per cent of our total popu- lation today. In 1820, of the Negro popu- lation 85 per cent lived in town, only 20 per cent were in towns of 10,000 popu- lation or over. In the Northern States 75 per cent lived in such urban areas. In 1920 there were 6 cities with a Negro population of over 100,000. of St. Louis's population are Nerces. Mortality Rate In the Northern States the Negro mortality rate in 1925 varied from 21.5 to 23.8. In I' Southern States it was from 15.6 to 16.3. The urban population of infants mortality rates are misleading in many States on account of comparatively incomplete colored birth registration but they are from the rural areas for the white. In practically all cities where studies have been made, the congestion is much greater, and there is comparatively little recreational space, let alone facilities,-provided and children as compared with white. Hospitals Studies of Negro hospitals in the South show they are largely given over to surgical cases. There is little provision for medical cases or child-patient care, and the physical sufferers are directed of the Council on Medical Education and Hospitals, showed 183 to exist. One hundred and twenty were visited. Their capacity was 9.027; 110 were in Southern States. Only 13 per cent could be treated. Over 51 per cent were Class C or worse. Need for Negro Nurses Training schools for Negro nurses were found connected with 60 hostilities, and the average of a little over 11 nurses per hospital. There seems to be a real need for colored nurses in the Public Health field among their own people. The experience of the Phipps Institute is that the colored nurse can accomplish more than the white nurse, even though the latter has had experience in that field and is sympathetic to the public Health Nursing organizations find it of advantage to use colored nurses for their own people. In the Co-operative Extension Work of the Department of Agriculture, colored nurses are organized in 157 counties, where there is a large colored population. Two Medical Schools There are two recognized medical schools for Negroes. Just how many Negro physicians there are is not definitely known but there are 176 in Detroit. Except in his own hospitals there is almost no opportunity for the Negro physician to secure clinical experience. In several dispensaries where there is a large Negro clientele, he attains secure an appointment. The whole problem of Negro health is still a difficult one to solve, and much study is being given to it by the health department. To be definite, information may be secured for it must be remembered that the health of the Negro population is important, for it concerns nearly 40 percent of our total population, and the health of the Negro population is affected fluence on the general health of the community.

Reports of the White House Conference on Child Health and Protection-Excerpts from stamographically reported proceedings SPECIAL CHILD GROUPS — Chirman Murphy introduces Eugene K. Jones of the New York Urban League-Friday's session: The first speaker as outlined by Mr. Folks will be Mr. Jones, Mr. Eugene K. Jones. Our committee is charged with providing various specific recommendations were made about groups, as pointed out by Mr. Folks yesterday, who have not always benefited as a result of the work thought out programs of child welfare. This holds true particularly of the Negro child, of the Indian child of the Mexican child, of the Puerto Helen child. There is not t. l. to present even abbreviated reports on three of these four very special groups of children representing problems quite accustomed to mass, liberation, or social position. We are desirous that in the declaration of rights for children which will emanate from this Conference, that what is sound for one may be found so emanate from us. We have had no more sincere or searching person serving on our committee than the gentleman who will speak, and I am sure he can attest to you that his committee, from time to time representing both white and black children, we have penetrating thinking, with results which ten years hence may mean an entire new chapter of welfare for the Negro child as well as for other children. lo ar. somewhat outside the area of so-called opportunity which is the white child, surmise is the white child. Mr. Jones! (Apause.) Cities Increase MR. EUGENE K. JONES; I shall just summarize very briefly the findings of the committee referred to by Mr. Murphy. This committee was composed of Southern and Northern persons, white and colored, men and women. We wanted first to find out what the major factors were in child dependency or making for child dependency in the Negro group. We started first the Negro population and then rural to urban centers. In the Northern and Western urban centers the change in the Negro population had been from 836,000 to 1,309,000, or an increase of 480,000. Most Families Take Lodgers. The second major factor is the constitution of the Negro family. For example, in Chicago 38 per cent of the household relative in the household. Then, 52 per cent had no persons other than the immediate or distant relatives, and 10 per cent of the household group was made up of persons who were in no way related. This situation is the result in many of the other larger cities. The families with lodgers not in any way related rank from 5 per cent in Worcester, Mass., to 40 per cent in Bristol, Mass., to 25 per cent of families having lodgers. The third factor was that of housing. Andre Siegfried in "America Comes of Age" of the story of the change in population patterns in America he would tell it through the medium of a house. The occupancy of houses in American cities would be ordered English, German, Irish, Jew, Italian, and finally, the Negro. Dividing Dwellings Then we divided the Negro home into certain arrangements which could describe very briefly the condition: 1. Dwellings difficult to keep in repair due to age. 2. The area does not attract new homes. 3. The dwellings have few sanitary provisions. 4. The dwellings are built for more intimate family life and the privacy, therefore, of the Negro home is destroyed. The Negro houses are the neglect of street cleaning and street paving, garbage disposal and lighting, and so forth. Congestion These are vast factors in connection with housing. The average score in 15 cities in the North and South ranges from 5 for whites in Gary, to 223 in New York. and 20 in Dayton and Winston-Salem for Negroes. Seventy-five per cent of their incomes exceed than 20 per cent of their incomes for rent, which is the maximum amount, on the average, that families should pay for rent from their incomes. The fourth factor which we listed was economic. Of 100 Negroes, 48 are concerned with earning a living. For the whites, the corresponding number is 38. Of these 48 Negroes who work 21 are farmers 12 are domesticers; 2 are miners; 10 are workers or some form of transportation, and 1 each is in public service. a profession, and clinical work. 39 Colored 20 Average Twenty of each 100 American women work; 39 of each 100 Negro women in America work; 40 of children be born in America and 15, and 100 native whites, 24 are employed; of 100 Negroes, 54. The wages on the average are lower in almost all lines and involuntary unemployment is greater because Negroes are more industrial, and the unskilled workers along almost all lines. Illegitimacy The fifth and last factor we gave attention to was illegitimacy. In 1927 the white illegitimacy was 16.3 per cent; for Negroes, 128.4 per cent. There has been an increase among whites and Negroes but there are 20,000 negro mothers, 10,000 immigrant mothers, and the economic background, w feel, is largely responsible for this. We have listed briefly the suggested remedies, mentioning the fact that the dependency of Negroes locally is 40 per cent to 100 per cent above the population percentage of the Negro mothers. We suggest that the requested should be extended to include Negro families. In most States it is difficult for Negro mothers to secure mothers' aid. We believe, however, that the emphasis throughout this activity should be on prevention, as suggested by the Conference keynote. We believe there should be improved social and economic conditions. We believe we work with the community of family and neighborhood responsibility, insisting on the same standards being sought for Negro families as for whites. All Aid Available We believe that there should be made available to all races public and private relief service wherever organized. Similarly, school services should be placed for home placement and adoption when children should be removed from their homes. Where institutional care is provided, intake, follow-up services should be provided. We hope that the mistakes that have been made during years past in the methods that have been used for the care o the white children in our work to Negro children in communities where Negroes have not received this care. We do not just want service because white people have had it. If they have made mistakes we will work to in taking care of our Negro children. We believe there should be trained Negro personnel, and there are schools now available to Negro college graduates for further training in social work. Handling Dependents Finally these miscellaneous questions in organization and policy we think should receive consideration everywhere. We should have control of agencies for Negroes we believe it is beneficial to have mixed boards of control. We believe it would be desirable to have Negro dependents handled by the same community rather than to organize special agencies just for the care of the Negro group and that wherever it is possible we believe there should be Negro representation in administration and support of these agencies. (Apologia.) NEGRO SUPERIOR IN MANY WAYS, SAYS MENCKEN NEW YORK. (CNS)—"If Negroes threw off their preachers and holy men, who are nothing but racketeers, they would make a huge stride forward," says Henry L. Mencken, white, editor of the Mercury magazine, called by many the most distinguished professional iconoclast in the country. Mr. Mencken is posting these days at a Fifth Avenue studio and his likeness is being transferred to canvas by a Negro artist, O. Richard Reid, in a studio at 8144 Fifth Avenue. There America's most distinguished professional iconoclast on a dance and discourses on this and that while most portrays Mr. Mencken's likeness. Drank Some Beer "Be careful about the eyes," admonishes the Baltimore baron. "I drang some excellent beer last night with the result that they are not as clear as usual." The mouth still for a few moments, Mr. Mencken "implores Mr. Reld. "Remember I am not doing a motion picture." Mr. Mencken likes his portrait, but has no intention of buying it. It would be intolerable to be forever confronted by a picture of himself, he thinks. He adds, however, that he exists after his writings are forgotten, prophesying that one hundred years from now few will know that he had lived. Still, as he points out, he was never one who learned for literary immortality. Superior in Many Ways Recently it is one of his sittings he turned to L. S. Alexander Gumby proprietor of the studio, and said, "The trouble with the Negro is that he apes white people. He is superior in many ways. He is better mannered than the black man? He has a better complexion. He is never pale or pasty. "If Negroes threw off their preachers and holy men, who are nothing but racketeers, they would make a huge stride forward." DICTAPHONE TIPS UNDERWORLD COP AND POLITICIAN LOS ANGELES, Cal. — (ANP) — Dictaphones employed by the chief of police and Captain Harry Hagar, white, of the Newton District trapped George Brown, underworld leader and two policemen, Reuben Scott and Brian Hagar. Dictaphones were set and conversations recorded that revealed deep plotting and intention to corner the trade in dissolute women, bootleg liquor and gambling. Specifically they recorded the legerger of a large amount of alcohol, and transferring it to another bootleger under their protection. Brown, accompanied by attorney Hagar, accused the Captain Hagar some time ago asking that officers Scott and Kelso be transferred from another division to Newton division to help clean it up. According to the legerger, the whole personnel of the vice squad according to their suggestions Chief of Police Steckel and Capt. Hagar laid the trap and caught: the officers, in the city, embraces all the Central Avenue white business district and the colored residential district. Some years ago, Brown is said to have controlled it. Captain McCleary of this district was removed three years ago and since has retired very wealthy, but Capt. Hagar Hagar, white, who supplanted him at once closed the fifty-lottery hits running and been hired as a manager since. About fifty-five pol' men and detectives and a few whites work out of Newton Station, which has had two colored captains, Glenn and Stevens, now retired on pensions. Famous colored lieutenant, such as Sgt. John McCormack, so built up their careers as law enforcers in the district.

So far, they have always come out of the huddle with something. With some friends, we watch them, it is just a matter of "whether we will pay or stay." Several Jewish firms have the reputation of not paying off but yet they manage to hang on. They use the simple expedient of changing the name and writing the $10 to keep mum about the matter. Four Way Numbers One of the best innovations in the "racket" is the four way number. This number of four digits instead of three, pays 2500 to one, and is said to have been started by the Columbia syndicate. It is based upon the same clearing house figures but 'instead of taking just one in the second total, it takes two. For instance, the clearing house figures for last Saturday were as follows: $88,000,000 and $126,000,000. In the three way numbers the Saturday numb-r was 886, taking the last two digits in 'he first section of the first total and the last digit in the first section of the second total. There was 8828 which included the last two digits in the first section of the second total. Began in 1926 It was only with persistence on the part of the first operators that the game has reached its present popularity in Baltimore. The racket became what was already the rage in Philadelphia, New York, and Atlantic City. The first attempts to introduce the game were futile, the business done being hardly enough to warrant the continuance of the 20 series, and the commission to their writers. The year of 1927 saw the beginning of happy days for the writers, such inducements as one-half of the collections being used to encourage them. Those race betting had a strong stranglehold on the public that the hope of weaning them from the turf seemed remote. Persistence won, however, and soon the public substituted the song that a "number didn't hit" for the woofer tune that came from the 1920s. During these trying days of introduction, the burden was borne by one organization but as soon as the public became convinced that large returns came from small investments, the plays increased daily until they became a collection of returns $5,000 and $7,000. 500 to 1 In 1926 and 1927 the players were paid 500 to 1 on their investment, and the writers were then collected, and in 1928 they were collected, and in 1929, cent commission on the hits. Company Got Gravy During these two years, one company got all the "gravy" because the novices did not know how to "combinate" a number. "Hot" numbers were hardly heard of, and newspapers did not aid. The police, other officers, and not sure whether anybody would be so foolish as to be going around collecting two and three cents on numbers. In the course of time, however, men suspected as bosses and employees of the syndicate started driving around in new red, green, vermilion and other "necklace" cars. The natural inference was that those rich in the racket were getting rich. Rainbow Division With this feeling circulating, it was but natural that some other persons with "war money" burning in their pockets should decide to take a chance in order that they might get in the "rainbow division" of cars. This feeling was not confined entirely to "Mose." In a very short time several of the children of Israel decided they knew enough about change making to cut in on the proposition. In due time they also began to ride in multi-colored cars. All of this was done in spite of the fact that the pioneer corporation said "nobody can do business in town but us." The newcomers, it appears, took the stand; that what the aborigines said did not count. They put it, the government said you cannot sell whiskey, but they sell it right on, and it is a sure thing that the government is stronger than any one "number" syndicate, be it in Baltimore, New York or Monte Carlo. The Nation's Biggest All-Negro Weekly GET George to tell you about this sometime. Seems Mrs. George had an attack of acute appendicitis at 2 A.M., and George rushed to the TELEPHONE and called a doctor, a nurse, an ambulance, and had engaged a room at the hospital in no time at all. MICHT have been a far, far differ-ent story without that telephone, says George. Thus, in due time, what was in the beginning a one-syndicate town, turned into what might be termed a "number of writers" city. Writers Well Paid The merits or demerts of the great middleman, the writer, should also be touched. At the present time they may be able to tell you a fact that the field is overcrowded with would-be backers, the writer holds an enviable position. The various companies are continually expanding, so you quit elsewhere and work for them. Each writer is paid twenty-five per cent of his collections. In addition, he covers his fines in case he is arrested. Ever and an author loses his head, and instead of carrying the "hits" to the lucky person, he gets his gills filled with false courage that he finally decides not to pay a soul. PITTSBURGH'S NUMEEE RAID PITTSBURGH—Books for writing clearing house numbers, an adding machine and moonshine liquor were confiscated in a raid upon the home of Edward Penn, of 1528 Clark Street, Boston, MA. The police confiscated the raid, charged Penn with keeping a disorderly house. Bid, Pass, Double Important in Bridge B. R. W. TALIAFERRO Even though most Bridge adherents pay little or no attention to the study of the auction, it plays just as important a part as the play. The auction is primarily for participants to describe their own strategies and their respective hands. How often have you watched bridge games and have seen partners assume a contract in a suit and lose it when they would have probably gone game with an opponent, trump them or be issued by individual and not Cooperative bidding. I cannot emphasize too strongly the partnership features of bridge and those who fail to realize it will never become expert. You will never pass every bid, every double should carry some information to your partner and vice versa, and unless this message is conveyed you are falling far short of the purposes of the auction. Good bridge players constantly strive for the following: first, secure the contract if they have the necessary strength; second, secure the most advantageous contract in case there are two or more open to them; third, force the opponents to an unobtainable con N.J.

No practical results, including promotion or improved standards of living have been noted after several years of activity. The report declares: "The state of mind of the Haitian people following the American occupation has made it difficult to obtain their co-operation. Haitians Not Beyond Criticism The Haitian leaders themselves are for neglecting the development of communities for their rural population over-emphasis on the cultural branches of education, and for their apparent concern for the future and progress of the masses who constitute the foundations of their government. "Your commission is distinctly of the opinion that a change of attitude in the American occupation, officials of the American occupation, and those representing the Service Technique, from one of independent self-sufficiency to one of interested and sympathize co-operation must be made in education and government offices in Haiti as will yet make that department a welcome addition to the forces of enlightenment and culture in the country rather than an object of completion, a reminder of unwilling subjection.

He hadn't enough money to buy dresses sufficiently rich for his chorus. At the concert the poor clothes of his singers showed up piteously against the rich robes, silks, and jewels of the Caliph's wives, but Bahrami's wife was lost in the magical power and soon all was forgotten but that. The Caliph gave him an immense sum of money, which if it did not sothe his pride at least permitted him to dress his troupe magnificently. Writes Fiery War Poem In his sixteenth year, Bahrami, up to now had celebrated the joys of love, wine and other profane themes was destined for a war role. Theophilus, with vading Syria, was spreading death and desolation. Bahrami, stirred by the wrongs of his people, appeared before the Caliph with a fiery warpoem, the first of his composition, urging the people to rally against the Greeks. He sang: "Oh. Anger of God, thou hast seen this horrible spectacle, Revenge, therefore the female victims. As to the men, they have found a glorious death, perhaps a just punishment for their sins. But what of the innocent women and children? The nation, stirred by his song, arose and drove out the enemy. But this was Drahman's swan song. Thereafter, he never appeared in public. In his last days his religious samples re-asserted themselves, and he regretted having followed a career which had been entirely against his tastes. For a long time also he had been tired of those of those who had once saluted him as Caliph. One of the latter had written a satire about him, calling him, the Dragon, and had been him because of his huge size and the blackness of his skin. Advised to Burn His Composition In dying he expressed keen regrets that he had followed an art he deemed so profane, and that he had left so many monuments to his worldly taste. When, however, one of his religious friends advised him to burn all his poems and his music manuscripts, he replied: "Fool, too art, what should I do with Charahay. Ought I to burn, too, shall knows all my songs by heart." Charahay was his favorite disciple. Ibrahim's death was mourned even by his rivals. He had made music popular and had dignified the occupation of singer. Amongst those who had been captivated by his voice was a sternly religious noble, named Ahmed Daoud. The latter paid him the following tribute: "Up to the time of hearing the Prince Ibrahim I had denied the effect that song could produce, and more than once had maintained my opinion even before the Caliph, by heretics, from all others against an art whose power had been revealed to me for the first time." Whenever objections arose against the public singer the invariable reply would be: "Was not the Prince Ibrahim, son of El-Mahdah, and a direct descendant of the Prophet, the first singer of his day?" Many of his love songs are preserved in Isfahani's Book of Songs Good News!

It is with a certain amount of shame that I write about him, this man who had passed until he had passed on before I thought to give him the flowers I so rightfully owe him. But that's the way of life. We humans are a selfish lot, neglectful and stingy—with that kind of pride, we have words of praise, a little recognition of worth. True, monuments are erected years later, but monuments, regardless of cost, are valueless if the person whose name is on them has a way never realizing that his efforts were appreciated. Too Much Hypocrisy This, however, will not be a eulogy. There is no form of literature that offers such an opportunity for hyacinth to be funeral at funerals. That is why I have never attended a funeral of my own accord and perhaps never will. I don't like the displays of woe, which are often only play-sching. This is more common, since as I would write were he alive. To this venerable gentleman, whom I learned to love as a student, I owe, indirectly, what success he has tried. He has tried, in fact, what he who, regardless of how busy he was, always found time to read whatever I wrote, and in spite of his Christian faith, has also used unexpected heights to tell me (quite vehemently) that I was a "dahmned fool" whenever the occasion demanded, which was not at all unusual. It was not until I took him real seriously and convinced myself that he was right that I began to profit by his counsel. "Perhaps fool" fool, he said, "because of letting these qualities go to waste?" Why not capitalize on this talent? Why not be a for profit as well as pleasure? Why try to be serious when your best efforts are made. Acting upon the theory that fools rush in and win angels fear to tread, I changed my tactics. I began to seek out the foolish side of things. In this my greatest support came from the angels. He died believing me to be his favorite fool. May God give me strength to live up to his opinion of me. To some it might seem in decidedly bad taste to write in a lighter vein about a man so close after his demise, but because of the fact that he of whom I write would be disappointed I were to do otherwise* we here he to read it. Death is taken entirely too seriously a world that has tasted of its pangs for millions of years, long enough to accept it as the inevitable, a matter of course, instead of something more. An attitude is a reflection on both the good and the bad. The bad surely hold no fear of the hereafter because if they do their good should hold fear because if they do they be their own teachings—a belief in paradise herefor the worthy. And there is the place. Our DOC-commander, as a teacher he was lovable and inspiring; as a philosopher he was profound; as a humanitarian, he was liberal beyond measure, as a preacher beyond which he called himself, he seemed weak. This was not because his knowledge of the Bible was not superior to many in the profession, because as a Greek and an Arabian he came into the original texts than most of his contemporaries, but the very exactions of the ministry forced him to believe that condition always narrows a man's viewpoint. He was forced to believe that his denomination was the true path to soul salvation. To do less would make him disliked of his acceptance. Upon certain occasions I have heard him *enounce Catholicism*. He has also denounced other forms of worship. I cannot say. But it seemed odd that he who was the social change should let religion be the one shackle that kept him from being God-like. It seems paradoxical, but it is nevertheless Being a minister, handicapped him in other ways. He was duty-bound to preach the gospel, but the great mission. For the ears of sinners, death is pictured as a horrible experience, as a terrifying event. For the ears of believers it is pictured as a future of peace and contentment in a place of beauty. Both ears are human. Both pictures make us think of the priestess thing of all, the clergy us betwint and between with the belief that our fate is to be saved not before us, but after we have drunk not before us. We leave the world almost on a gamble. He Had Faith As a historian, there seemed nothing that Dr. O'Connell did not know. He seemed an inexhaustible storehouse of knowledge. Seldom did he resort to textbooks to clarify the most basking questions he answered in his tongue's end. In other subjects he seemed an equal authority, but in theology, even he was forced to stop at a certain point and leave our queries to that embracing word. We were perfect, because he had an abundance of it. It was undoubtedly hard for him to understand how any one could doubt when to him evidences of his theological beliefs were so apparent. Some day, perhaps, he got that inexplainable something that he had. While the call to preach alone kept him from being truly great, it did not prevent him from being a success if we assume it was much well laughed often and loved well, because, these things he did.

Baked Rabbit One rabbit, 3 cups cream or a thin white whisky, 3 slices bacon, and flour drizzle Skin, clean, and wash the rabbit. Split it into two pieces, cutting along the backbone. Rub with salt and a second piece. Place in a weating pan. Dredge with flour. Lay strips of bacon across the rabbit. Four over and around it 3 cups of white sauce or 3 cups of cream. Bake 1 hour, then bake in the cream gravy. The liver may be boiled until tender, chopped, and added to the gravy before serving. If a drop of vanilla is added to each cup of cocoa after pouring, it will greatly improve the flavor. Iskahani pays him the following tribute: "In the art of sound: rhythm: was one of the most instructed man of his day; in singing; in rhythm; and in playing the stringed 'instrument he excels all. The religious prejudices of his day and his royal birth at no time left him: free to develop his marvelous gifts." In the Sewing Room After the pattern has been selected, then come the materials, and then the garment of garment. The tailored shirt garment, for instance, will never be easily fitted if made of a filmy or a thin, stiff fabric. Fabric, turris, and heavy linens are more desirable, and voles are more desirable for less severe designs. Garments made from firm or stiff fabrics, such as taffeta, or organelle, and gingham, are fitted satisfactorily if made with set-in Some textiles are so soft and so loosely woven that great care must be taken in the construction of the garment. It is carefully fitted, it may be easily pulled of shawl. In making garments of such fabrics, make them large enough to prevent the piling of seams in places where there is much material. Select 3 pounds of very bony pieces of pork or pork and beef mixed, if preferred. A hog's head may be used. For meat of bony meat use each a quart of water and simmer until the meat drops from the bone. Remove the bone, take care to get the bone out of the meat into small pieces. There should be about 2 quarts of broth left. If necessary, add water to make this quantity. Bring the broth to a boil, cut the corn meat, and cook the mixture until it is like a thick mush, stirring almost constantly. Add the chopped meat, salt and any other seasoning desired. Pour the mixture into a dampened oblong enameau pans. Let stand until cold and firm. Slice and brown in a hot skillet. If the scrape is rich with fat, no more fat is needed for frying. By sprinkling a 1 oz. f box baking soda over the top water of the cistern, the soft water will be materially sweetened and cleaned. The odor, as appended in cistern water, will be lacking.

SELECTING MATERIAL A&P ESTABLISHED 1920 MOTOR & ECONOMY INDUSTRY Farm and Garden **Salads via Basements** By florine by name and appearing on the menu of exclusive restaurants and clubs, a certain winter salad crop does not object to being grown in any basement. It is grown on head lettuce. That is French endive or wilted chicory. The crop has to be started from seed about June 15. Earlier planting produces in diameter, which are not desirable. The plants are thinned to six inch intervals in rows and ready for digging late in October. Severe freezing ruins the crop. When the plants are dug, the tops are cut out to about two inches above the soil. The crop begins at once, as no dormant period is necessary. Roots not to be forced until later may be stored in moist soil at temperatures of 28 to 36°F. The roots are set close together in ordinary soil in the forcing process. The crowns should be placed after the roots are set should be followed by putting on the sand in which the heads are to make their growth, but the roots should be allowed until after the soil surface has dried. About an eight inch layer of sand is used. Forcing temperatures usually are 20 to 25 °C. The initial watering usually is all that is needed. The heads are ready to use in from 14 to 20 days. Starting a few roots at intervals insures a continuous water supply and material during winter months. D.C. BIRTHS, DEATHS AND MARRIAGES 31 D. C.

Business depression and the cost of upkeep of the rarely used dwelling are explained as causes prompting the decision to dispose of what was one of the principay show places of the Negro group in America. Height of Success Mme. Walker, then at the height of her business success as founder and head of the C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company, decided in 1918 to build a home in the East. Sometime before, she had invaded New York City in a business and social way and followed in dous following. She had opened Harlem what was at that time the finest beauty salon of its kind yet developed for the women of her group. With memories of the narrow mean streets which had previously housed her people in Indianapolis, her home, and in many other communities, she resolved to build a home so splendid and so perfectly appointed that it would not have not been able to cope with the hardships and others of the race, but capitol and respect and admiration of scouting whites. Tandy was Architect She selected Irvington on-the-Hudson, a beautiful and exclusive suburb of New York City, and a half auto drive from New York City. Engaging a black architect, Vertner Tandy, and employing the finest Interior decorators in New York City, she built and equipped the entire station of the entire country. It had thirty rooms, ten baths, ten bedrooms, a drawing room, parlor, library, dining room, breakfast room, kitchen, laundry, pool rooms, garage with servants' quarters, pool room, gymnasium, laundry, and every conceivable equipment for household use. The furniture for the most part was made of Color schemes were carried out in the minute detail in each bedroom. No Trespass Tourists stopped to see from without the gate, for three was no trespassing on Mine. Walker's privacy, the privacy of any other residence on the Hudson, and it was kept as perfectly. Servants alone when she was alive cost more than $400 at the cook, butler, maid, laundress, yardman, and housekeeper. Those who were her guests were not perfected by perfection and of appropriateness because Madam Walker fitted the picture. Villa Lewar was as well kept as any millionaire's place on the Hud- Lived a Year The house was dedicated in August, 1918. Mrs. Walker did not live a year after the dedication, but in that brief time she remained in regular residence, the deli in the Kingdom which she has established. Infrequently Used After her death, the villa was infrequently used. Ala Lana Walker Robinson Kennedy preferred her town house in New York and only occupied the villa for vacation and week-end parties which she had established. Recently Walker decided to dispose of the house. Originally Mrs. Walker had stipulated in her will that the place could not be mortgaged and that her daughter would be the N.A.A.C.P. being a residuary leecee for a stipulated amount. Later the heirs went into court and had this codicil of the will set aside. Her cherished reports $15,000 mortgage now in vogue upon the home. uplon the home. Affompts to Sell Recently attempts were made to sell the place to colored interests. Failing in this, signs were posted numerous white buyers stopped to look, but it seemed that an inhibition of people who could afford so elegant an establishment against the coloration used by colored people and in the house in which they lived were two strong for the inquirers, although it wring admiration for their lips. Buy for a Song Many of the white neighbors and wealthy New Yorkers attended the recent auction, however, buying the art curator's collection with such rare and discriminating taste, for a song. White people thronged the sale, many more to see the luxurious privacy from which they had been barred for a decade. The couple of furnishing not for sale was Mrs. Walker's own bedroom suite, the center of which was a magnificent mahogany four-poster bed with a great canopy. If all the matched furniture in the room had been rented, it would be rented, at $250,000. Is The house, quoted at $250,000, is still for sale. SICK LIST MRS.
