INLANDSFOREIGN
Traveling on the S. S. Cuba we were slated to leave San Pedro Nov. 16th at noon, but upon arriving at the dock discovered that hour for sailing was changed to 4 p.m.
At the hour of 3 p.m. all our cargo was aboard—as testified to by the ship's four whistles—and we then assigned the arrival of the Immigration Inspector. After his arrival it was reported that a stowaway was aboard, and quite a deal of excitement was evidenced trying to locate the same. He was finally found and all was satisfactory from that end.
We now threw off, but upon pulling away from the pier discovered that two women passengers, who had gone ashore, were missing. We were about 100 feet out in the break-water when they were seen to arrive at the pier. The Pilot volunteered to go for them in his private launch, and so when we reached the light-house just outside the Los Angeles harbor, he returned to shore and brought them aboard. All was now well, and we put to sea, not to stop again until we reached Mazatlan.
My Fellow Travelers
I soon became acquainted with those on board, becoming quite friendly with a few Spanish people who spoke some English.
The majority of the passengers were white Americans who hailed from almost every part of the States—Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, South Carolina and Texas.
One man in particular, who came from Texas, I can't forget because of an experience he told. He said that at one time he was working on a freight boat running between New Orleans and the Canal Zone on which they employed the "Niggers" and that it was a common occurrence to drop one overboard if he got a sassy and never even look to see what became of him. But, he was repaid—as was brought out in his* conversation later of another incident. This time he had settled down and come into quite a number of good friends. Telling a couple of Jews, from San Francisco went down there and through some technicality, relieved him of all his possessions, and now he was on his way to Salina Cruz to work in an oil field; he also stated his hatred for the Jew since. Of course he never had time to hate himself (?
My Accommodation
I had a fine statercom and had two young fellows returning to Central America as my room-mates. They were both congenial, and I could not have had better pals if I had chosen them. They were returning from San Francisco where they had gone two years previous to enter college.
The Amusements
The amusements on board the ship consisted of games—Cards, Checkers and Chess—chiefly, and occasionally in the evenings we would dance to the strains of a little Victrole which was on board or have the stringed orchestra, which consisted of two Guitars and two Ukeleles. There was quite a deal of gambling among some of the fellowers and every night found the chips stacked high. One youngster, just two days out at sea lost Two Hundred Dollars.
At Mazatlan
Mazatlan is a good size town in Mexico, which is three days' sail from San Pedro and a distance of 1,039 miles from that port. The people here are all Mexicans — here and there will be seen a white face, but they are rare. The people ar all busy, businesses of every kind and description are to be seen in this town, which seems to be on the boom.
The old burro is still, the beast of burden in these parts, almost everywhere he has a load of coffee on his back or is hitched to a little two-wheeled cart. And this is not all, for you will see the old familiar cab—popular centurion; ago—with the driver perched high up in front, which all goes to remind us that we are in a country where the customs and habits of the people change little and whose progress is slow, and where everything is "manana"—toorrow. Miss "Lizzie" can also be seen here wending her way up hill and down dale.
After unloading our cargo, which
look a day, we set sail for our next
port, Manzanillo, another Mexican
port, not so large as Manzanillo but
smaller. This port 160 miles
from Manzanillo. From this point is

After remaining here for half a day we left for Salina Cruz, another Mexican port 595 miles away. Here they have an enclosed harbor into which you enter through a draw bridge. At this place is built one of the finest set of warehouses on the Mexican and Central American Coast, erected at a cost of $600,000 a few years ago. We remained here for one day, then put to sea again for Champerico, Guatamala, two days' sail from Salina Cruz and a distance of 200 miles.
A Little Rough Weather
The sea was calm, and the weather all that could be desired up to this port, but after sailing from Salinas Cruz, Sunday afternoon, November 27th, we ran into a lightening and thunder storm about 8 p.m. The skies become very black, the sea heaved and fell, the boat rocked from side to side, and everywhere nothing could be seen or heard but the flash of lightning, breaking into a golden blaze of glory upon the distant horizon, and the peal of thunder just overheard. It was now but a matter of a few minutes before the rain began to fall in torrents, and the winds, heretofore unheard, wailed and moaned in their maddening onrush. Can you imagine being out in a cold, pitiless ocean, two hundred miles to the nearest port, at the mercy of a fierce and merciless storm?
WILL OPEN DRIVE FOR COMOBABI MINES
Why, the Comobabi Mining land, Real Estate and business guarantee plan is supreme above all; first, because it is safe and will pay dividends far beyond any other safe investment; second, it is a 12 by 12 complete plan, the mines acquiring and protecting the lands, the lands in turn protecting and helping to extend the mines, also the mines and lands open up the highly profitable desert and mountain store. Of course 'cattle raiding, cotton growing and general farming flows from the lands which are both state and government, thus you see by first opening up the mines they put into operation, their great basic twin industry that flow from the lands, Negroes should see the strength of this combination, then turn from the mines and lands to the city, first our company has 4,500,000 in its treasury, one-half of the money we sell our stock for is to be invested in real estate and business in this city, the other half in the mines and lands, it is our plan and policy to buy Real Estate to keep, for its income, second for it to stand as a basis of confidence, third as a basis of protection to prevent the ever moving of our group back to more undesirable parts of the city, now let us take business and correlate it with real estate our policy is to put in first class representative business that will be able to complete and at the same time appeal to and at the pride, also to cooperate with finance individual or co-partnership capable Negro business that they can better compete and extend their business, here then we unfold to you a plan combining mining, land acquiring, real estate acquiring, business acquiring all under one stock ownership, your stock in our company covers the profits from all, of course these named activities will open the door into the manufacturing field, but here in the proof that our plan is a safe 12 by 12 complete plan, because it is based that we can begin paying dividends in the next 6 months that will be never raring, and we will be shipping in 2 months in carolled lots, but while shipping we will also begin acquiring Real Estate as our substitution to own a half million dollars worth of real estate here, at the time we begin paying dividends and to also have entered into business. I ask you to note that by acquiring real estate concurrently while shipping this will allow us to pay the entire gross output of the mines to our stockholders as dividends, and charge all expenses against the real estate, to illustrate if when we begin shipping our output of one average $200,000.00 a month then in 6 months time we will have accrued $240,000.00 the gross output available for the paying of dividends, the expenses would be met by the income from our real estate and business, this outline to you a plan where we will see a continuous increase in the output of one all available for dividends, also an increase in the value of our shares, as we increase and extend our buying the general average salary we will have increased because the
mines for added dividends, this then is the equation our plan presents first a constant increase of ore out put and mine extension, a constant acquiring of Real Estate, a constant extension into business, I will not disclose our full land plan as it would not be politic, but if I could it would give great added strength, but here you see a great plan so based that all these activities are co-operating under one stock interest with the profits going to one common treasury. I ask why can't all these men who are trying to organise these little 2 by 4 companies wake up and realize that the Negro wants to make money, wants real financial freedom and not mere existence, only a great safe 12 by 12 plan based on the mines, lands, Real Estate and business, will allow them to use a part of their wage earnings and get real financial freedom and security and Combabi is the only plan that will do that all others are only partial plans we ask you to look into Combabi's plans, try to bring Negro money from all over the United States to invest in our mines and in Real Estate and business in this city, so for the first time the Negro is asked to deal in millions, because our 1000 acre mining foundation itself will produce millions in values, we are now opening from 2 to 3 weeks drive and then I will return to the mines put on a gasoline hoist and begin taking out ore for shipping, Combabi is the ship, we want all thinking and seeing Negro to come in now, and let's participate in greatest financial expansion the South-west has ever known, with Los Angeles becoming a great basic manufacturing city.

COMMENTS
Piety and Wisdom—Soldiers Bonus
—True Patriotism—Politics
(By W. J Wheaton)
According to the report of the Weekly News, a University publication the State of South Carolina stands sixth in church membership, the per cent being 72.7 for the entire population of the state, but, its at bottom of the list of states in educational efficacy, and stands from the top in total literacy.
There is hardly any need in commenting on piety in the "Weasel" State, because any state that produces the like of Cole Blease has a very distorted conception of piety, and have given to the world a most realistic exhibition of their wisdom. They are a shining example of what too much piety, and a minimum of wisdom can do in the warping of minds.
We hope that the masses of South Carolina may cultivate a little of the common sense which creates a spirit of tolerance, and a little less of the piety which breeds hatred and ripens into persecution mob violence and murder.
The attention of the nation is at present centered on Congress. We are looking to see what the representatives of the people are going to do; whether the fear of political retirement, under threat, is to coerce them into further birding the already, tax ladened public. firmly believes that the men who were wounded or otherwise disabled in the service of the government should be well taken care of. Indeed no sacrifice should be too great to provide for their comfort and welfare. But of those who were drafted, and who came out unaccompanied from the conflict, men who have gained by the experience of contact with life among their fellows, who are in robust health, and who are more able to cope with the requirements of civil life by virtue of their military training, should think twice before they dim the halo which adorns their record for national patriotism, by placing another heavy impact upon overburdened, tax WIGHT TO SAVE ...THE WORLD FOR DEMOCRACY?
Speaking of the question of renumeration for military service rendered the nation, recalls to our memory a conversation between two veterans of the war between the States.
Some years ago the encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic met in the city of St. Paul, in Minnesota. These two had served in the 54th regiment of Massachusetts which created its place in history of military life by its heroic charge. Fort Wagner, under the skirts of Colonel Shaw.
Noted Orator Will be at St. Paul Baptist Church Tuesday at 8:00 p.m.
The doughty forceful and brilliant editor of the Messenger whose stay here has been one of continual triumph will make his final appearance on behalf of the East Side Mothers Club next Tuesday evening at St. Paul Baptist Church on Naomi St. at 21st.
His subject on this occasion will be "The Truth About President Harding's Negro Policy." This will be the brilliant speaker's greatest effort and the subject has been reserved for this occasion. In fact this meeting was planned for an admission charge but later it has been decided to dispense with any admission, instead a silver offering for the aid of the East Side Mothers Club will be taken up. Therefore as the people plan to hear this last and most important address go prepared to assist the Mothers Club which is struggling at this time to put in shape their New Home and its grand opening on Easter. Don't fall to hear, Chandier Owen in his last appearance on Tuesday night.
only to have lived to see this day; I would count every sacrifice made; every pain endured an insignificant thing.
I think that we should be thankful, you and I that we had a part in saving in its entirety a nation represented by such an array of happy children as greeted our eyes today." Then turning and placing his hand on the shoulder of the other man, he continued "And I often think of the day when the order was read that the Negro soldiers were only to receive eight dollars per month, and the white soldiers were receiving thirteen and you stepped out from the ranks and said to the company: "Boy, damn their money, give as the guns, its our wives and children that we want to fight for, and the freedom of our people." Lama summoned I stood with bared head on the spot where the remains of sergeant Carney had rested under the dome of the Mass. State Capitol, covered by the flag that he had helped to preserve to the nation, and then by the monument erected to Attucks. Did your mind ever travel and cover the attacks where blood was tormented the full for the fruition of the Revolution. Carney whose heroism helped in the saving of a nation which Attucks helped to build. True PATRIOTISM was displayed by both. A PATRIOTISM void of commercialism.
It seems as if the word has gone forth, and partisanism, as far as the Negro voter is concerned, thrown to the winds. That is, if some of the candidates who have announced themselves for re-election, are serious in the assertion.
The Iroquois Club, now in session in San Francisco, is hopeful of inducing ex-Senator Phelan to enter the race for the governorship. Well it is pretty hard to guess what the outcome would be at this time, but we prophecy that if Phelan takes up the fight for the Dems, and stands for the governor's chair, that even Hiram Johnson will be bound homeward to see to his political fences, for it would be hard to tell who Phelan might not take in with him on the landslide.
The defection of Curry, Barbour, and Nolan from the principles of the Republican party set one of the groups of voters to wondering if there is such a thing as party in the State. It is said that they trade their vote for anti-Japanese support, but the three wise men should know that if trouble should cause from friction with Japan or any other nation that the mass of the voters affected by the Dyer, anti-lynching bill would be the first to offer up their lives for the maintenance of the National sovereignty.
At any rate that group of voters are gird to know where the three representatives stand on the question of LAW and ORDER.

PASSING OF DR. W. C. GORDON'S PATHER.
Many friends in this city were shocked and pained last Sunday morning when the news of the sudden death of Mr. John Calvin Gordon was learned.
Mr. Gordon was the father of Dr. Wilber C. Gordon of this city and with his wife resided at Elkhurst.
The deceased was born at Virginia in 1858 and came to Los Angeles in 1869. Drum Springfield, Ohio. He was one of the city's most highly collected citizens. Drink was the main food and the Sunday morning from the church of Nathaniel G. Gower On.
EDITOR OF MESSENGER HAS A BUSY WEEK
Speaks One or Two . . Times Every Day; Crowded, Honors Greet Him on Every Occasion
On last Sunday at $ o clock a huge meeting was arranged by Rev. Dr. Shaw at the Wesley Chapel M. E. Church at which time by special request of Dr. Shaw, Mr. Owen addressed a large congregation on "The New Emancipation." Grey skies and threatening rain did not deter the crowd which poured out right on time to hear the Editor of the Messenger.
At 8 p. m. that night, despite a raging storm which flooded the streets of Los Angeles, a large number of people still came out to hear Mr. Owen speak on the subject: "What Must the Negro do in Order to be Saved." The meeting was held at the St. Paul Baptist Church of which the Rev. Dr. Holt is pastor. Dr. Holt in commenting upon the lecture, said that he had heard all the solutions offered in the United States for the Negro problem but none which was so simple, clear, logical and practical as the one offered by the editor of the Messenger. On Monday night Mr. Owen spoke at Trinity Baptist Church of which the Rev. Eldridge is pastor, the Negro Leadership." He was introduced by the distinguished attorney, E. John Curt, who no on, could be informed, of the Negro question who did not read the Messenger. that the Messenger represented not only the highest type of Negro journalism but the highest type of any kind of journalism—he regarded the editors as among the most brilliant writers and speakers in the United States.
On Tuesday night in company with Mr. J. B. Bass, editor and owner of the California Eagle, Mr. Owen journeyed to Watts, where at 8 o'clock the Grant Chapel was filled even to the pulpit by a huge crowd. Mr. Owen spoke on "The Future of the Negro in America." and was most enthusiastically received. Dr. Price said it was one of the finest treats his people ever had.
On Wednesday night, a large audience greeted the New York editor at Metropolitan Baptist Church at Pasadena. Mr. Owen spoke on "The Truth About Harding's Birmingham Speech." to an audience that was so well pleased that it gave the largest of subscriptions which Mr. Owen says he has taken up at any colored meeting since leaving New York.
Thursday night the Editor left the Negro Question aptly and gave an illuminating address on "New Problems in Medicine," at the Saints Home Church, Los Angeles, of which Rev. E. R. Driver is pastor. This meeting was under the auspices of the Five Cs, whose president, Attorney E. C. Jennings, acted as chairman. Here assembled the largest audience that has as yet turned out. It sat spell-bound for at least one hour and twenty minutes listening to a different interpellation, a medicine, ination and such kinded problems as Foods, etc. At 10:30 Mr. Owen went to the Cosmopolitan Hall where he spoke to the German Singers. Besides being the most enthusiastic meeting, many questions were asked and large number of subscriptions taken.
On one of the occasions at the Wesley Church, on Sunday, Mr. Owen said in part: "I favor unconditional, unequivocal absolute social equality. I don't see how there can be qualified equality. To admit that one does not believe in social equality is to admit that he is not another man's equal in society. To admit that you are not another's equal is to admit that you are entitled to different treatment. In denying to the Negro social equality, logically it can be assumed that he may be superior or inferior, since inequality might establish either a greater or a lesser position. No one acquainted with the facts understands that the intention is to accord superiority to the Negro when social equality is socially inferior, that he is less than other men that he is different, his difference being in his lowness, rather than in his highness. From such a theory the corollary naturally follows: If the Negro is socially different from the white man, then he is entitled to different treatment. If his difference is in his inferiority, then he is entitled to inferior treatment.
Indeed, this conception of Negro inferiority perides the entire treatment of the colored people. To illustrate: If a group of Southern white men are in a hotel dining room, there is no objection to a Negro's being there in the capacity of a waiter, a bellman or a butler, but there is objection to his being in the dining room as a guest eating his meal. In most theatres—North and South—a Negro must secure overcrowd posts as a patron or guest of the design. Nevertheless, there is no objection to his being in the dining room as a guest of the design. A Broadway show also has an objection to its design.
ing there as a passenger—a man. Those who know the South will recall that a Negro may get into a buggy or automobile and ride miles and miles, side by side, with any Southern white man's wife, daughter or sweetheart—as a driver. There would be murderous objections to his being in such a vehicle with a white woman in the capacity of a gentleman. Why this anomalous situation? It is not a question of proximity for a Negro waiter may come in contact with dozens of people in a dining room or car, whereas a Negro guest or passenger may be seated alone at his table in the dining room. A Negro porter will brush and touch every white man and woman in his car, whereas the Negro passenger may be seated alone in his parlor chair, sleep in his berth, etc. A Negro theatre usher will come in contact with hundreds of white people in seating them, while at worst (?) the Negro theatre patron can have only two white persons on either side of his seat. A Negro gentleman may entertain but one white lady or gentleman on a motor trip, but the Negro hackman, driver or chauffeur will carry hundreds of white people all over a city during the day.
"The reason, you ask again? Simply this. When a Negro is in a pulman car as a porter, in a dining room as a waiter, in a theatre as an usher, in an automobile or buggy as a chauffeur or drivr—his color has not changed, his race has not changed, from what his color and race are when in those places as a passenger, hotel guest, theatre patron or gentleman, respectively. The explanation is to be found in the desire of the white man to se<sub>a</sub> at all times an evidence of inferiority on the part of the Negro!
ONE OF CALIFORNIA'S OLDEST PREACHERS LOOKS LIKE BOY AT SIXTY-TWO

MOONLIGHT ON DETROIT RIVER
The soft winds around me did blow
A message so joyous and free.
While I by the rail of the good boat
"Sappho"
Was dreaming of things yet to be.
The moon on the still waters shone
And back to the moon did they
shine
Around me were many, yet I stood
alone.
Alone in the moonlight divine.
Gay laughter and prattle and song.
Sweet music did so sit the scheme.
The dancers appeared as they glid-
ed along.
Just part of a wonderful dream.
Then out of the radiant night.
A voice on my ear seemed to ring.
A voice like the breezes, seductive and light.
Yet boldly and sweetly did sing.
SONG
I am the Goddess of pleasure.
Queen of this revel am I
Come let us tread now a measure
Ere this fair evening goes, by
Cast off your doubt and your sorrow
Throw down your mantle of care.
Reek not what happens tomorrow
Live while you live, if you dare.

INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF
CHRIST
Sunday was a very gloomy day but in spite of the clouds a great crowd was out. Miss Inez Robinson sang a sweet solo which was followed by a splendid selection by the Choir. Rev. Gregga preached an unusually fine sermon as he always does and was enjoyed by his appreciative and intelligent audience. After the service subscriptions were taken for the Extension and Pipe Organ to which the people responded liberally.
There was an extraordinary number on the evening program. Dr. H. H. Jones, Medical Missionary of Klay Liberia Africa who has been in the interior for ten consecutive years gave us a wonderful description of the life and habits of the African people. Everybody should have heard him. He will lecture again soon.
Tuesday night there was an excellent meeting of the Young People's Lyceum. The life and works of Paul Lawrence Dunbar was discussed. Strangers and friends always find a cordial welcome at our church.
Full and helpful services at the Christian Church last Sunday, the pastor preached an able sermon in the morning, subject: "The Cost of Discipleship." Just after the morning services, Mrs. Keath, having collected quite a number of children together had a very enthusiastic meeting with her "All Nations' Club. Sunday night, Dr. Geo. F. Bradforth, our state Reginal Stewardship secretary preached for us. It was a most splendid sermon. Nearly Sunday the Missionary Society of St. Mary Keath is president will be the year old.

FIRST AFRICAN M. E. CHURCH

The Rev. J. Edward McCorkle and the Rev. G. W. Reed, L. L. D. preached morning and evening in the 8th and Towne Church last Sunday. Both services were good with burning gospel messages. There were six additions to the membership of the church, including Miss Melvin Overby who came in on Thursday night. The Cairns furnished good singing. Lrs. Pearl Rose and Bro. Emanuel Hall were the soloists for the day. There were many prominent visitors included in the large audience which greeted Rev. McCorkle at 11 o'clock. Because of the illness of the pastor, Dr. Pearl, his physician kept him in-doors from Thursday p. m. till Monday noon. However, he is much improved.
WESLEY M. E. CHURCH—
8th and San Julian Sts.
Rev. A. P. Shaw, Pastor
Sunday, was a good day at Wesley. The morning sermon was preached very instructively on titting by Rey. R. H. Wade. Editor Owen delivered a very helpful address under the auspices of the Brotherhood and the pastor's evening sermon on Blessed are the Mek was well received.
This Sunday is Communion Day, the pastor will preach morning and evening. All members will be expected to commune at one of the services of the day.
Wesley promises a service worth while. Come and see.
BIRCH ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Cor. 14th and Birch St.
Eld. F. C. Cothran, Minister
The usual order of services prevailed on last Lord's Day. The pastor filled the pulpit at both morning and evening services and preached two strong and able sermons on the first principles of Salvation as practiced by the early Christians and outlined by Jesus, the "Christ" himself. These sermons are the beginning of a series of sermons which are to be preached in the immediate future on this same general theme based on the Acts of the Apostles. All persons who hunger and thirst for knowledge along these truly first Christian principles would do well to hear as many of these sermons as possible.
Our last week's prayer meeting was a spiritual inspiration the subject of Co-Workers with God was discussed and everyone present took an active part. We would especially recommend this mid-week service to all as a spirit reviver and courage renewer. Another of our visiting friends Mrs. presided and entertained us at our Social hour last Sunday evening. We were served most delectable chicken salad with dainty cheese and bread and butter sandwiches.
We regret to note that there is a great amount of sickness and several cases of "Fliu" among the members. We are confident however that all will be well with us shortly God who is all powerful can heal our ills physically as well as spiritually. Regular services on next Sunday. Everybody welcome.
PHILLIPS CHAPEL C. M. E.
CHURCH—1406 Newton St.
Rev. J. D. Anderson, Pastor.
Despite the influenza epidemic there was a good congregation present at the morning service on the last Lord's Day. The pastor continued the sermons for "Practical Christianity." The service was helpful and spiritual. There were two additions to the membership of the church during the day. The music rendered by our unexcelled Choir was very pleasing to the worshippers. There are quite a number of the members of the church who are confined to their homes by illness. We are glad to report that there are no serious illnesses so far. A large number are convalescent. Next Sunday will be our second quarterly meeting. The Presiding Elder will preach at both services. The Communion of the Lord's Supper will be administered at both services. Strangers and visitors always find a hearty welcome to all the services of this fast growing, progressive church. Come where a real gospel message awaits you and where the old time fire is burning.
WARD CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH
1252 E. 25th St.
Rev. J. Edw. McCorkle, Minister
South 1975-J
The pastor will occupy the pulpit at both services next Sabbath. The morning subject is "Set thy house in order."

FIRST A. M. B. ZION CHURCH
Cor. Pico and Paloma
Rev. H. B. Gaitt, Pastor
Never before in the history of Zion Church has a more appreciative audience listened to a more masterful sermon than that which fell from the lips of Bishop L. W. Kyles on last Sunday morning—"Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." John 14:27. Such an exhortation on Peace! Peace is what this sin sick world needs. Would that the whole world could have listened to this sermon on "Peace." It would be a far better world.
At 3 p. m. Bishop Kyles preached at the Caldwell Mission. His subject was "Faith in God's Power."—Pascal 27:1-8.
Again at 8 p. m. Bishop Kyles addressed the First Church—Pascal 37:1-6—"Confidence 'in God' was used as his subject. Every sermon Bishop preached was both timely and practical.
The Choir was at its best and rendered some excellent music.
Rev. Gantt will occupy his own pulpit next Sunday morning and evening.
Rev. Holt will preach, at 8 p.m. Come out to Zion if you feel the fire burning in your heart.
All are welcome—Our doors are
All are welcome—Our doors are ajar.

OSCAR CHARLESTON KING OF SWATTERS THROUGHOUT SEASON HITS 405, FIELDS 960
When general manager Jim White drafted "bambino" Oscar Charleston to the Angel City last fall, he imported without a doubt the second greatest living baseball performer in the entire universe, the great Babe Ruth being his only peer.
During our winter season fourteen big league players have been entertained at the L. A. White Sox correl many who are rated as the world's best performers but not one of these including the Meusels, Lou Blue, Johnny Rawlings, Boeckel, or Chat Thomas ever approached an asking for her fielding work at bat with a wonderful athletics outfielder and gentleman Oscar Charleston who last year led the entire field of eight clubs of the National Negro Baseball League by his herculean wielding of the war club and his equally as sensational strategy on the outfield.
Mackey Best Back Stop
Raleigh Mackey is undoubtedly the best fixture behind the platter that ever parked West of the Los Angeles River despite all the big leaguers that have navigated the West bank of said stream. Mackey's gun shot wing to the keyston bag bag which nipped so many of the rambling Meuselites bent on thievery was indeed a revelation to many of the big timers.
Race Lads Out-hit Meuselites
The gait at which Charleston and his crew carried Bob and Irish Meusel's majors was inspiring to many of the local fans of both races. The colored boys took seven victories out of the eleven clashes beginning January 14th and ending February 25th and actually outplayed the short enders at all stages of the struggle, the entire club lambasted the major's heavers Bill Pertica, Lefty Thomas and Sam Lewis at fast pace of .331 as against the Meusel's. 276.
Oscar Tops List
Charleston himself led the individual attack by hammering Emil's herlers at the mad rate of .488, while George Carr poled .441, Pullen .400, Hawkins .382, Blackman who played in but two games against Meusel's terribles before heading south hit .375, Mackey bingled .341, Jeffries .332, Bob Fagen .301 and Hurley McNair swatted an even .300 which isn't bad when 9 men tap .300 and better in anybody's league.
Emil Meusel himself during the last three games nosed out Norman Boeckel for first place on his club's list hitting at .412 and Boeckel .372.

FRENCHIE TAKES ANOTHER DECISION OVER RIVERS; VIC ALEXANDER MAULS KID SLOAN MERCILLESSLY
Kane and Langford Also Win
The newly named Madison Square Garden was packed to the rails last Wednesday night when the biggest and best card of the season was put on with 4 flashy prelims and a thrilling double decked main-show feat-
uring Ted Frenchie-George Rivers and Kid Sloan-VtcAlexander a fast stepping pair of middles and two lumbering 200 pounders who looked powerful enough to have a locomotive into the L. A. River left handed. So exciting was the entire bill that the riotous throng of men and women nearly raised the roof with aplause and enthusiastic howling.

Referee: George Tittington.
Judges: Kid Williams and George Drew.
Announcer—Tamplco Kid.
KID SLOAN DEAD ON FEET
After Kid Sloan a ponderous race man with enough weight overlapping between his chin and knees to make a heavyweight of Young Sam Langford had been beaten into a mass of human batter for four sessions by the hard hitting Victor Alexander he was still on his feet trying to see from where the punishment was coming but was absolutely helpless during the third and last rounds. Sloan would make a wonderful punching bag if hung up in training quarters but never a fighter, he never had a chance but has a great heart and was without a doubt the saddest looking loser that ever entered the local arena.
FRENCHIE WINS AGAIN BUT
NARROWLY
It was practically demonstrated that Ted Frenchie is admittedly the stronger and better battler than George Rivers still he will never be able to stretch George for a goul in four rounds as the mulatto boy is far too shifty and winded and Ted tires noticeably in the third and fourth of every battle. Frenchie started wallops that would have caved in the Broadway tunnel had they landed but clever George was just two inches out of harm's way at all times and came back with a flock of caressing little pats and slaps on Frenchie's head and body. The first round of their fierce battle was slightly Rivers' who showed up much better throughout than their last meeting, while Ted struggled so determinedly in the third and fourth to upset George that he wore himself out and a more aggressive warrior than Rivers would have slammed Teddy for a cool nap easily in the fourth.
SHIELDS ONLY GETS DRAW
After, battling Frankie a sort of Mexican iron man had worked a trip hammer tattoo for three rounds on Willie Shield's wind bag apparently with no effect the judges decided that his mad rush an almost successful attempt to stow the Mex away in the last session only, entitle William to a draw verdict—Shields showed marked intelligence and improvement over his last appearance.
BELL BOBS SAN OF K. O.
While referee George Tittington was slowly tolling off the seconds over the prostrate form of a white lad Bobby Nesbitt who had been joited to the canvas three times during the evening by the heavy slugging Young. Samuel Langford the final bell clanged mercifully and saved the loser a charge of a knock out A.K. O. victory which is indeed commendable when the white boy's ten or twelve pounds of weight advantage is considered. Sammy started off like a mad bull determine to win and decisively made good.
KID MACK LACKS HEART
Just why Kid Mack allowed a dancing Hebrew boy to remain conscious and upright during the fourth round after Mack had won all the way and had the groggy Little Jewish Vernon performer practically helpless in the last frame we will never be able to understand as it sure looked queer at ring side and the less said probably the best for Mack but we will say that had he shown any desire at all to finish the affair with a punch he could done so easily but simply stood up covered at the ever expectant. Jew covers up and dodge—too much for our guests
MEDICO TAKES KARE OF BLEN
MARIE KANE OF FLYNN
Billy Kane has now proved conclusively that he is Wop Flynn's static master having won both their nights decisively in 4 and 3 rounds. A pill dispenser stopped the mill Wednesday night when it was seen that a sapping gash over Wop's left optic was swelling up, so badly during the minute's rest after the 3rd round that Flynn was not allowed to go on, though willing through fear of permanent damage to the game and tough Irish lady

eye, so the clever jabbing Kane wins hands down. The blood had been streaming all through the third and the Wop was seen to be in a bad way but his gameness prolonged the battle.
NEXT WEEK'S BILL
The heavy throng of white and race fans that witnessed Wednesday night's big bill will be equally as well entertained next week as great card is being arranged by match maker Bob Carroll and "Bob knows his stuff."
JOHNSON OR WILLS TO FIGHT DEMPSKEY IN MEXICO JULY 4TH
The report from New York that a group of California business men with strong Mexican connections are planning to lease the nearly completed $600,000 government promoted bull ring at Mexico City for the purpose of staging a July 4th battle for the world's heavyweight championship with either Harry Will or Jack Johnson as the champion's adversity is indeed a welcomed one and meets the hearty approval of all fair minded sports as the most practical proposition yet suggested.
No interference assured.
The sanction of President Oregon having been already secured the main blockade is practically removed, and now it is a matter of a lot of press agent stuff to work up the international interest and popular of the big skirmish and the things on.
Dempsey Willing
When confronted with the proposition Jack Kearns Dempsey's manager simply said—we are in a receptive mood, the Mexican thing looks good, but we will wait a while in the hope of profitable competition viewing in the states or in Europe in battle ground.
Johnson Aks $125,000
Hon John Arthur (Jack) Johnson only asks $125,000 berry for his work which in no tie may be his work. He may be Michael Jackson or Jack and profession to Wills and something definite is sure to pop out from.
$900,000 For the Champion John Dempsey is said to hanker after the $800,000 mark or better for a shirt with either Wills or Dempsey which will probably cause
DANNY EDWARDS WINS FIRST BATTLE IN BOSTON
In his first Eastern fight at Boston last Monday night with a bimbo labeled Chick Suggs champion featherweight of New England Danny Edwards got away with the judge's decision over the white boy in a 10 session mill.
Edwards Flashy
The Boston ink spillers are raving over Danny's speed and cleverness and his ability to carry the stuff into the enemy's camp which as we know is Edwards' regular brand of fistic quarreling.
Moore and Edwards Together
George Moore the Portland, Oregon colored boxing promoter is still with Edwards and although according to reports he is up against considerable difficulty in breaking into New York with a mixed bout he is determined to shove Danny right to the front and Madison Square Garden is his goal so says George and here is more power to his plans.
The many thousands of regular pastboard munchers and buyers who have braved the rain, snow and several other brands of bad baseball weather to see the by-weekly attractions that have been screen at the L. A. White Sox baseball arena during the past five months by White's baseball association need have no fear for the organization's spring and summer activities.
Best Club in So. Cal President Frank Howard, Secretary J. E. Waldon, treasurer J. H. Graham and general manager James P. White are planning to put the best summer club in the East Fourth Street lot that is to be found in the whole Southland and are already busying themselves with the matter of collecting finger prizes of famous local talent for their recruit work which starts shortly.
Plenty of Local Goods
During this month the present crop of White's outfit will be considerably reduced as several of the boys start for Eastern camps in a few days.
Just who will be which is a question at this time but it's safe to say that Hill Poorer Johnny Maughan, Bill Anthony Kyle, Adrian Williams, Gailie Dixon and probably Neal Patterson will be the winner.

The appointment of George McClellan as Probation Officer as a representative of our group of citizenship is a distinct and glorious victory for the Five C's organization.
This organization started the movement some months ago, without any particular one in view for the position, other than the Race should have representation in this particular department. Petitions were circulated by the Club and the same were presented to the Board of Supervisors by the officers thereof. Later on their request was granted, a com- munication examination was held, qualified; among those Mr. George exper-
Getting close to home and taking up the policy of our own Governor Stephens, he is not unlike President Harding, for the Governor all, through his last campaign was extremely concerned about the Colored people, he visited their organizations, churches and etc. He strongly spoke up for the great achievements and loyalty which they had maintained, on this eminently fair and appreciative stand, they stod behind him like a stone wall and their support was the deciding force in his gaining the nomination over Mayor Rolph. He still entertains the same view as far as we know, but in four years of his occupancy of the office of Governor, during which time he has made thousands of appointments not once has he seen fit to recognize even in the smallest degree the Colored supporters by offering to them one single place at the political pie counter over which he presides.
Therefore he gives President Harding one better for his president has condescend- make a few appointments in the order of Deeds and others in recogni- ncional and faithful

price asked in other stores. The writer paid ten cents for a cake of Williams Shaving soap in a Colored Drug store on Central avenue near 18th street last week, when the same soap, retails for five cents in other places that I know of, it was not even ten cents during the war with luxury tax included. I also had an occasion to have a prescription filled. For some pepsin which costs $1.00 per bottle, but since it had to be put into a smaller bottle, I asked them to give me fifty cents worth, but this particular druggist refused to do so. I went to a white drug store and purchased twenty-five cents worth. There is another medicine that sold for fifty cents per box during the war and the price is marked on the box by the wholesale house; the white stores with few exceptions, sold it for forty-nine cents including war tax but my own stores charged fifty-two cents and are yet charging the same fifty cents and it is this way in other lines of business. Our stores are too quick to think a person of the race should buy from them whether it suits or not.
If you ask the most of them to get a certain kind of goods, he is apt to tell you, that he has no call for it and it does not pay and usually he will not get it until, some white salesman, comes along and tells him he should carry it in stock also they figure profits too closely. No man in a merchandise business can make his expense and a profit on any one article. I have been in business and know that if a man asks you to get a certain kind of cigar, if you get it, he will buy something else, and if it is a popular brand of goods you will sell it to others because not all of the people are ungrateful and too, it is necessary for any person in business to carry just the same line, or a little better than the other fellow if he expects to compete with him. Goods on the shelves will not give a profit nor can they be sold unless the public wants them, that being the case, what the public wants as far as your capital goes and as long as you do not have to pay any more to the jobber than any other race, meet your competitor in any other race, meet you will win in the long run. This is 1922 not 1888. things are different, what used to be a luxury is now a necessity and our race man must learn it if he means to do business on the modern plan. There is

The annual session of the Progressive M. B. A. was held in their home office, 1201 $ \frac{1}{2} $ Central Avenue, Tuesday, Feb. 14th at 2 p. m., at which time the following named persons were elected as officers and members of the Board of Directors for the ensuing year:
J. H. DIXSON, President; W. J. THOMAS, Vice-Pres.; J. C. JORDAN,
Secretary; CLIFF SEWALL, AllA. t'sec. Y'; I. W. WALLACH, Treasurer.
The Progressive M. B. A. was one year old December 23, 1921, but has done business since Sept., 1921. Since that time we have made it possible for nine members of our own race to live from this effort. There are other valuable considerations in spending your money that's more essential to us as a race than value received for a dollar, and that is what we are proving to you. Our six months of being in your midst should be proof that we are here to stay and with our efforts and your influence has been possible for us to write over 500 members—paying all sick claims that was just and those are the only kind we are going to pay, because we are handling the people's money that the State made us Custodians over. With the most profound thanks and gratitude we extend to the citizenry of Los Angeles in assisting us in our efforts, because we are proud of all members from the largest to the smallest for you can confide in us doing the right thing for all parties concerned. We realize that this is the only just method by which any people can hope to succeed. These principles are the most valuable assets to the heights we hope to attain and if you will co-operate with us, we will make this the Greatest Benefit Association on the Pacific Coast for our race, and by this time next year we can be employing 250 members of our own race.
Now for a future success. Place one of our Policies in your home—don't be a stacker, procrastinating about this or the other, you have trusted the other fellow for 300 years, try your own for the next 10 years. One Hundred Agents Wanted—Good pay for the right kind
