passed their stage of publicity exploitation and settled down systematically to carry on their grisly business. Out at Concerville, Kansas, the Mayor was recently taken out and whipped by this notorious band of cowards. Down in Georgia last week press patches say they defeated the nominee for Senator who opposed their outlawry. A preacher at McAster, Okla., recently exhorted from the Word of God while a pistol was in public view beside his Bible. The Klan had warned him to get out. These incidents are symptomatic of what will probably continue to appear unless some stronger power intervenes to nip their nefarious operations at the base.
The Jeys are getting very much disturbed over the Klan, too. At New York they have launched a magazine, in conjunction with Irishmen, purely defensive and offensive. It is The Defender, 42 East 23rd Street (price 10c). It also incidentally champions the cause of the Negro.
This is good. Once we get white groups hot in the fight, times will be lively. Anarchism will be eminent. When the Government will and must
Tome Watson is out of the way. The Senate is lucky. Negroes should be happy. Georgia should be "tickled to death." Everybody should congratulate everybody else for the sake of the country at large. Watson's sensationalism was mistaken by some for patriotism. His rabidity toward personal and incidental capitalistic interests was mistaken by many for liberality. Lakar. His mania for maintaining his point on a pet theory led to prolonged research which was misconstrued for genuine by scholarly instincts. Intolerance enveloped him. Jews and Catholics fared hard at his hands. He was unable to rise above the sectionalism of the South. The old prejudices were in the marrow of his bones. In offering an excuse for threatening to slap an army officer in the Senate, he said the officer had "aroused his Southern blood." Of course he cared nothing for Negroes. But we don't doubt he actually loved his cooks and plow-hands. Such was Tom Watson. We are "glad he's gone and sorry he stayed so long."
The lady Senator appointed by Governor Hardwick to complete the almost expired term of Watson is Mrs. W. H. Felton. The whole white press had joined in a chorus of praise to the first woman senator in America. But we note Negro editors were not deceived. It is almost axiomatic that anything coming from the South representing politics rings to the slave psychology of those backward states.
Twenty years ago this same Mrs. Felton said in a public address in Atlanta that she approved lynching; She has never publicly admitted a change of heart. Now come Northern papers, (as well as Southern), which have steadfastly fought this evil, placing their O. K. on this antebellum relic of a defunct generation. (Mrs. Felton is 87). We are not disposed to sacrifice a principle even in doffing our hat to the gentler sex.

A. Philip Randolph, one of the editors of the Messenger magazine, is now stumping the State of New York for the American Labor Party. Randolph is named for Secretary of State. He is the only Negro running for a state office and his nomination is the highest political honor accorded any Negro since Reconstruction. This has caused a virtual stampede in Republican and Democratic ranks. Themselves asking for the Negro vote and giving nothing in return, they gasp in amazement at the audacity of the Socialists. Their Negro lackeys are solemnly warning that Socialist party is dangerous and seeks to overthrow the Government. They speak in total disregard of truth.
But Randolph goes on. He has had a rapid rise since he started out in 1916. In 1919 he was named for Assemblyman, in 1920 he ran for State Controller, in 1922 he is slated for Secretary of State.
EUROPE WILL VINDICATE HER
MADAME FLORENCE COLE-TALBERT AT THE PHILHARMONIC AUDITORIUM.
Her Star Rose to Greatest Brilliance at Her Recital of Last Tuesday. She was ably supported by her fellow artists. But Europe will finally Discover Her True Value and America will be Forced to Acknowledge the Lyrical Superiority .of Her Own Neglected Ethiopian Diva.
By: LOUIS MICHEL
The first presentation into a wider field of Madame Florence Cole-Talbert by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people at the Philharmonic Auditorium, on October the 17th, splendidly assisted by the Bridgetower Trio as composed by Messrs. James Warren, violinist, Marke Carnahan, cellist and John Gray, pianist, and the able Miss Nadia McCullough, as pianist-accompanist, was well attended with the cream and the flower of the Ethiopian people and a fair sprinkling of Caucasian music lovers was also noticeable, though the dominant, but not superior race of this city has yet to learn, how to fittingly voice a great and leading singer, as Florence Cole-Talbert unquestionably is.
The careful listener to her rich and vibrant, exquisitely cultivated and carefully mastered voice must pay her greatest homage, for Florence Cole-Talbert is a singer by nature with inborn ability as her leading asset, but with a magnificent training and most diligent studies to back her triumphantly in bringing out to richest and grandest bloom what her birth traits had faded her to become.
Ah, it was a gorgeous delight to witness this remarkable songbird of an oppressed race as she ascended the steepest heights of vocal grandeur, climbing up to the high E with the easiest grace and speedily emitting the difficult G notes, as if all this intricate artistry was mere child's play for this wondrous woman of famous mould! And such sweet heart-penetrating singing, with a technique so sublime, a form and figure so faultless, and with a sunshiny smile upon a most fascinating as well as fascinated countenance—truly Florence Cole-Talbert looked like a veritable, worldly Madonna of soaring and winning lyrics, if this quaint characterization is permissible!—There was fire and feeling, there was sweetness and poise, there was drama and joy, there was tears and laughter in her singing, it was a feast of song, such as only Madame Florence Cole-Talbert herself is able to supply!
The program consisted of two parts, was well balanced and rendered with much smoothness and self- (Continued on Page Eight)
COMMENTS
By W. J. Wheaton
It is alleged that the government of Santo Domingo has protested, or rather, the Haitian-San Domingo Independence Society, protests against the $16,000,000, which is now in process of floatation by the National City Company.
It is this interest which brought about the American occupation of those governments by military force, and resulted in the loss of thousands of lives.
Haiti, and Santo Domingo realize that the loan, which is sponsored by the United States, will only prolong the agony and give a further pretext for the flying of the U. S. flag over the Customs House. The Independence Society, while not unmindful of the material improvements made under the American occupation; wish to maintain their national sovereignty, borrow where they can obtain the best terms, without any dictation. The nationalists of these republics have been charing under the restraint placed upon them by foreign occupation. The arrogance of the maries coupled with their disregard of the finer feelings of the refined classes, has left a sore that will be hard to heal.
It would not be fair to say that the American occupation was without benefit; the building of roads, improvement of sanitary conditions, and the establishment of adequate police, all have been of an appreciable benefit.
According to the McCormick report; having accomplished these things, and played the role of the benefactor, would it not be well to allow the people who have been governing themselves, and who won that right by their valor, to determine for themselves how they will finance their government?
Ever since the administration of Abraham Lincoln, under which the authority of the Republic were first recognised, there has been schooling scheme used to gain a reputation to the public.
commands the Caribbean Sea, and is of intrinsic value as a stra...to SC naval base.
Bribery, cabalery or none of the wiles of diplomacy have ever been able to gain the consent of the Haitian government to dispose of it, or allow it to pass from under their control. But, along comes the big war, and, well, we must get control of that point of land before some other Power gets control and causes international complications. There is a matter of a few million dollars loaned down there by American interests, and they cannot collect, "Guess that we had better collect for them" said Uncle Sam, and forthwith he occupied the Island, raised his flag over the Custom House, and took possession. If there had been no Mole St. Nicholas, there would have been no American occupation. $16,000,000 means a few more years of American dictation, and if deemed advisable, the trend of events will lead to annexation. We see the fate of Cuba, and the Phillipines in store for the island of Haiti.
Politics
The American Legion is in the political game. They see the necessity of using the ballot to obtain the legislation they are striving for. That is as it should be, and it is the only way.
They are not placing their confidence in the promises of any political party, and when a representative fails to live up to the promise given he is shelved, and another tried. After a while candidates for office, begin to see that they mean business, and strive to enact the measures demanded.
It is too bad that a certain group of voters who have so much at stake cannot see the futility of blind servility to partizanship, throw off the yoke that holds them and vote for the men who will strive to give them, that which is their due as citizens, equal representation.
There are men who represent the different political parties, who have the courage to demand fairplay for the masses, and who have sought to do that which in their judgment they thought to be right, yet, because they do not bear a particular political brand are not trusted with our suffrage.
We will support, and are supporting Hiram Johnson because we believe that he is sincere in his advocacy of an amendment to the Constitution prohibiting child labor.
Such a measure will be of incalculable value to us, in particular, as a people.
Thousands of young Negro children are being exploited in the factories of the South who should be at school.
It is asked why the parents of these children allow it. That can be answered by saying that the parents of those children, themselves being brought up under the same conditions cannot perceive the iniquity of the system.
It will take years of missionary work to accomplish the task. We cannot support some other candidates, who although bearing the same political label as Senator Johnson, have failed so far to measure up to the standard which would lead us to believe that they are "Simon Pure" in those ideals which go for the lifting up of humanity.
Although it is impossible to defeat them, we have tried our utmost to create sentiment against those recalcitrant congressmen of the State who antagonized the Dyer Bill, although they bear the label of the Republican party.
In our state and municipal affairs, measures and men who in our belief will honestly carry out those which we endorse, should receive our support.
Let us make partizanship our servant, and not allow partizanship to make servants of us.
Of course this will fall upon deaf ears as far as the professional, political pie hunter is concerned.
THE DYER BILL
We learn from authentic sources that the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill will be one of the first measures to be considered at the reconvening of the United States Senate in November.
The Dyer Bill was manouvered into a political measure by the tactics of the opposition. They accused the Republicans of insincerity in their advocacy of the measure, and, with a few exceptions, the champions of the bill, in the parlance of the street, "got cold feet."
The National Republican party pledged itself to enact a law that would curb the murderous tendencies of the mob. The passage of that measure through the lower house of congress is past history. It was fought bitterly, and were a few of the congressmen who were elected on that particular plank of the party's platform failed to live up to their pre-election promises, and voted against the bill. Some of them returned to their constituents with stories of the unconstitutionality of the bill, and how they would support any measure that would pass the scrutiny of the U.S. Congress. Others holdly and uninterested.
have decreed that men who place aught above the things that shall remove the barbaric stain, which for years has suilled our national honor, are not fit representatives to enact the laws for the people. There will be numbers of the gentlemen of that ilk returned to private life after the Seventh of November.
We can understand why members from the sections of the Union would oppose the measure. Those same members opposed the child labor act and were instrumental in having it decried a non-constitutional law. Those members represent a constituency while fattens off cheap labor and profits from the sweat of children.
It is to be hoped that the twentieth amendment of the Constitution will be one to prevent the exploitation of child labor, and that it will be enforced with the same vigor that characterizes the Volstead, or eighteenth amendment.
All persons who have claims of any kind against the Daniel Williams Hospital Corporation will present their claims to Attorney Charles S. Darden, 1166 South Central Ave., on or before October 31, 1922.

Independent Can

Independent Candidate on Issues of Campaign for Assembly
JANES M. ALEXANDER
ISSUES are the high spots in my campaign for the Assembly from the 74th Assembly District. Wholly impersonal but so strong and unanswerable that desperate efforts are being made to befog the issue. So desperate have they been that they have caused the ministry to call for collections; What for? to curb vice, so they say. The undersigned has been in the open for forty years stood up for clean government when the "holler than thou" have been in the very hollow of vice and immorality. In voices filled with pathos and tremor on each Sunday does one voicerous (always herefore a Negro Democrat) rage at the Forum because some one would dare exercise their God given privileges to aspire for public office. This is small stuff and really unworthy of mention except to show this sort of gentry up.
The issues in this campaign are far greater and I stand squarely for the greatest good to the greatest number of people and I have referred to my record of achievements during my residence in this district and feel that the same justifies the belief that I am fully competent and prepared to give to the people a greater service than either of the other two aspirants to this position.

The present incumbent has served the District for two years and what measure of real public moment has he put over and what representation has he procured for anybody in the State Government. Much has been taken up in his stand on the King Bill and on many other bills the bill was passed.

Probably the greatest and most soluble of student recitals witnessed by a Los Angeles audience took place Tuesday night in the beautiful Independent Church when Madam Sinclair White Murdock's superbly trained violin students in a joint recital with Prof. John A. Gray's equally technically instructed piano pupils thrilled one of the largest and most exclusive throngs of music lovers ever housed in a local auditorium.

put upon them. This is no fiction; compare your phone rates with what they were before the passage of the King Bill and what they are now. This also applies to the P. E. rates and other public utilities.
If upon due consideration of the voters of this District I am elected, I promise my best efforts with an experience gained by a score or more of years in public service to secure for our District all that is coming to it by way of real constructive legislation and above all representation for all groups of the citizens which compose the same in just proportions to the standing of each class or group.
Stand Up Like Men
I stand for a square deal and mainly exposition of the issues, devoid of personalities and purely merit and will meet all comers. I feel that it is high time that in the 74th Assembly District a campaign should be conducted upon high ground, devoid of the arising "holler than thou" attitude, smacking of public office being made a private snap and that only one person in so great a district is obligable to fill this office whether that person would bring results or not.
Standing squarely upon our rights, we are submitting our cause to the people of this District, promising a faithful service and the accomplishments of real lasting results. We appreciate very much the wonderful support which is being rendered and ask at the hands of all the people of this Great District a new consideration of our Claims.
Yours for assistance, Mrs. Alexander.

"If I am elected Governor it shall be one of my first duties to petition the Legislature for a bill by which all such organizations will be dismembered and crushed."
Editor Calif. Eagle,
524 Central Avenue,
Los Angeles, Calif.
Sir:
The California Citizens League, on behalf of its members and friends, asks for the courteous extension of your newspaper columns to convey to our group, this important message.
In keeping with our motto, "A Better Citizenry and a Broader Patriotism," we feel that we would indeed fall short of those high ideals if we did not call to attention, the members of our group, those grand, noble and deserving traits of character, deeds of heroism and valor, the personal and impersonal sacrifices, the struggle with and against contending forces that threatened the utter destruction of him who would stand out as an exponent.
Such men are guided by a strict sense of justice and in their ability to perform their duty to their country, their deep and impersonal love for humanity, enables them to share to day the love of a whole nation; for they are the real embodiment, the epitome of those men whom our nation has crowned with wreathes of unsuillied Immortality, and assigned their proper niche in the Temple of Fame. Because of his struggles, his unswerving devotion to the interests of human emancipation, and because of the sacred deeds and memory of our own Abraham Lincoln, who died in defense of what he believed was just and right—a martyr for the iniquity of our nation—we shall labor to keep alive in our hearts those spirits that they may not pass from our recognition, our appreciation.
Such sterling qualities, such trust, such worth as we find in the person, THOMAS LEE WOOLWINE, are indispensable qualifications for the office to which he aspires, and being a lawyer, he is in a sense, a statesman by virtue of his profession, and it is upon his profession that the people of California must chiefly rely for the preservation of constitutional principles in this state. It therefore becomes our pleasant duty and sublime pleasure to present HON. THOMAS LEE WOOLWINE, the worthy and qualified people's candidate for Governor of the State of California.
Voters generally have short memories of meritorious service on the part of public men or institutions; but knowing how faithfully and unremittingly the candidate has labored in the interests of the people, it seems just that those efforts should be recognized and requited. In our opinion, no man in public office today deserves recognition and preferment as does THOMAS LEE WOOLWINE. If public service and a high sense of duty are worthy of reward. If this is true, then what is your duty as a good citizen?
VOTE TO HELP ELECT THOMAS
LEE WOOLWINE
For in the person of Mr. WOOL-
WINE, candidate for Governor of the
State of California, is concentrated
the strength and power of those
people who love justice and fair play, especially those people who
THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE and who bow in respectful obedience to THE CONSTITUTION of our country and the laws of our land.
This is the wake in which the thinking man must tread and by which there shall be an assembling of the political strength and strategy of our group to the end that the candidate of our choice shall go over the top on NOVEMBER 7th. This is your fight as contrasted with that of your opponent, who is arrayed and endorsed on the side of and by those with whom you cannot, as good citizens, afford to affiliate.
Speaking of the K. K. K., that organization that strikes terror to the hearts of genuine American men and women of both races, Mr. WOOLWINE says: "IT IS AN ORGANIZATION WHICH SETS RACE AGAINST RACE AND RELIGION AGAINST. RELIGION, ATTEMPTING TO STRIKE AT ALL WE ARE GUARANTEED IN THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES." "IF I AM ELECTED GOVERNOR IT SHALL BE ONE OF MY FIRST DUTIES TO PETITION THE LEGISLATURE FOR A BILL BY WHICH ALL SUCH ORGANIZATIONS WILL BE DISMEMBERED AND CRUSHED CAN YOU AFFORD TO HAVE IT GO OUT THAT THE KU KLUX KLAN HAS ELECTED A GOVERNOR FOR YOUR GREAT STATE; THERE COULD BE NO MORE MALIGN INFLUENCE. NO MORE EVIL ADVERTISING FOR CALIFORNIA THAN SUCH AN ANNOUNCEMENT

CALIFORNIA CITIZENS CIVIC
Los Angeles, Cal., Oct. 24, 1932. Respectfully addressed to the Citizens of the State of California, County of Los Angeles and Los Angeles.
FELLOW CITIZENS, GREETING: Whereas, the Most Worshipful Alpha Grand Lodge is an organization of Colored Masons in the State of California, and having Credentials and Recognition from Masons all over the world, and. Whereas, this great confraternity of men are in sympathy with and interested in all just and humane principles of government as they are rightly administered and rightly understood, and realizing that the success of government, the main protection of the lives and property of those who live under its administration, depends upon the definite character of the men placed at its head, and. Whereas, we have found the man whom we believe worthy of the honor and esteem which the people of California are about to bestow, because there is no real contradiction between the higher tendencies of one party as compared with those of another in so far that political parties must co-exist for the assignable purpose of mutual defense, and. Whereas, it seems ever to have been the aim of Democracy to accomplish the destiny of the human race by every means of devotion known to civilization, and while it is a recognized fact in Republican jurisprudence that that party has furnished the maxim of freedom, happiness and opportunity to all, and.
Whereas, the Democracy of which we are speaking and thinking is not one of privileges, nor founded on force, but is one of service, founded on merit, and he who stands out pre-eminently as the leading agent of those democratic ideas is no other than the man of the people—the man of our choice—THOMAS LEE WOQLWINE—when the people shall elect Governor of the State of California.
BE IT RESOLVED, that the Most Worshipful Alpha Grand Lodge of the State of California so hereby and hereto endorse and cause in behalf lusted to the fraternal world and all men so assembled its unqualified and unimplicating support to insure election to the elected Governor of the State of California THOMAS LEE WOOLWINE

IN THE REALM OF POLITICS
Hearty approval of Charter Amendment S.A. which provides important changes in the present pension system of the Fire and Police departments, is expressed in a resolution of endorsement adopted by the Knights of Columbus. An official copy of the endorsement was received yesterday at the Fire and Police Pension Charter Amendment headquarters. 217 Byrne Building.
Like the Fraternal Order of Eagles and Elks,, the Knights of Columbus have contributed several speakers to aid in the fire and police pension campaign, as well as arranging a number of meetings at which the provisions of Amendment 8-A will be fully explained.
Among the prominent individuals to endorse this important amendment, the primary purpose of which is to establish the existing fire and police pension system as a part of the City Charter instead of merely by Council ordinance, are Louis M. Cole, and Sylvester L. Weaver, former presidents of the Chamber of Commerce; Mrs. Dora Stearns, president of the Woman's City Club; Thomas Ince, Mack Sennett, Mrs. E. C. Brainard, I. Hayes Rice, Louis Burston, Allen Shore, John D. Fredericks, Henry W. Louis, Fred L. Baker, Irving H. Helman, Rex W. Laws, Fairfax Cosby, Dana R. Weller, W. D. Howard, John S. Horn, secretary of the Central Labor Council; Seth Brown, Assemblyman Frederick M. Roberts, Michael Gore, Sid Grauman, Rev. J. Whitcomb Brougher, A. D. DeCoo, Dudley S. Valentine, Assemblyman Joseph P德rotti. Twenty-four civic; commercial, church and fraternal organizations have endorsed the measure.
Through a series of neighborhood meetings, arranged by his many friends, Township Justice Howard R. Hinshaw, who, after serving two terms, is a candidate for re-election, is acquainting voters with the details of the various amendments which will appear on the ballot next month. Justice Hinshaw has made a special study of these and his efforts to enlighten the voters are highly appreciated by those who have not the time to otherwise familiarize themselves with the proposed statutes.
Two amendments to which Justice Hinshaw has given much work are those pertaining to S.A. which provides pensions for firemen and policemen and the state amendment known as the "Soldier" Land and Home Act." For his work in behalf of the former, he has been literally complimented by the members of the fie and police departments. Although not seeking any reward for his work in behalf of the act to assist veterans, he has, nevertheless, won their support. This is attested by the indorsement just given Justice Hinshaw by the Associated Veterans of all American Wars. A big crowd heard Justice Hinshaw discuss the amendments when he spoke Sunday afternoon at the barbecue given by the Church of the Nativity, 56th and Vermont.
With only a short time remaining until the election, the Hinshaw Campaign Committee, which has its headquarters in the Hollingsworth Building, Sixth and Spring Streets, is increasing its activities. The Campaign is being directed by Attorney Edmund B. Hinshaw, father of the candidate, who served four terms as a Congressman from Nebraska.
Ira F. Thompson, candidate for Superior Judge, has gained scores of supporters during the past several days because of his expressed intention, if elected, to make every effort to speed up the action of the courts and remedy the delays that are now seriously hampering the dispensation of justice in Los Angeles County.
Mr. Thompson believes that the accused should be given a speedy trial and convicted or released as soon as possible. Flimsy excuses for the delay of trials should be disregarded, he believes, and all cases tried with the utmost speed except, of course, in very rare cases where it is impossible to secure material witnesses or evidence.
Scores of prominent lawyers, whose cases drag slowly through the courts and whose clients are either held in jail or their property tied up pending settlement, are supporting Thompson's stand and strongly endorsing his candidacy because of it.
Mr. Thompson also believes that the delays of law are lessening the public's respect for law and that this respect will not be fully restored until all unnecessary delays are done away with.
Judge Thomas C. Toland, candidate for Judge of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, has been endorsed by the County Bar Association is backed by the Federated State Societies, the Civic League and a number of other prominent organizations. He has the endorsement of thousands of his friends who are doing, according to L. W. Andrews of the Toland for Judge Committee, yeoman service. During the period that he has been judge, attorneys and business men declare that he has presided with great efficiency and courtesy. Some of the most important cases on the dock have been handled by Judge Toland and those who have served as jurors in his court, from time to time have organised clubs that are working to swell the majority which friends of Judge Toland are confident he will poll at the general election. November 27th
ELLIOTT CRAIG FOR SUPERIOR COURT
Billott Craig, who received the highest primary vote of the eight candidates for Judge of the Superior Court, is making an active campaign in preparation for the election on November seventh.
He has been extremely gratified over the number of prominent people who have interested themselves in his campaign, and who are working in his behalf to secure his election. He is endorsed by the United Church Brotherhoods. The War Veterans League, The Public Welfare League, the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Engineers, The Apartment House Owners Association, the Associated Veterans of all American Wars, The Young Men's Republican League, The Young Voter's Republican League, the American Patriotic League, The Republican Protective League, The California Citizen's Civic League, and numerous other civic organizations as well as many prominent individuals actively interested in civic and political affairs.
His election seems assured from his strong showing at the primary election, and from the active support being given him by civic bodies and influential citizens.
ENDORSE ELLIOTT CRAIG FOR
JUDGZ SUPERIOR COURT
The other members., and the administrative officers of the Los Angeles Board of Education, have personally endorsed the candidacy of Elliott Craig for Judge of the Superior Court. It is not the policy of the Board, as an organization, to take any interest in political affairs. This attitude extends to non-partisan matters and judicial officers. The respective members recognize, however, that Mr. Craig's services on school board matters have been rendered at a sacrifice to his personal interests, and their individual endorsement is given as a tribute to his faithfulness in the discharge of school work.
The endorsement reads as follows: "We are supporting Elliot Craig for Judge of the Superior Court because we know, from our close association with him, that he is well qualified for the position and is deserving of unanimous support."

Elliot Craig who is a candidate for the office of Judge of the Superior Court, entered the race with a large number of endorsements which speak well of his record as a public servant and his fitness for the office he seeks. His many friends are gratified over his splendid showing at the primaries held on August 29th, when he ran a strong third in a field of thirteen candidates, to such seasoned campaigners as Judge Summerfield and Judge Wood, who were elected at the primaries. Mr. Craig amassed a lead of several thousand votes over his nearest opponent for judicial, honors, and now stands as a candidate receiving the highest vote in the primaries of the eight aspirants who are to be voted on for the four positions to be filled in the November election.
Mr. Craig is in his thirty-sixth year of residence in Southern California and for many years past, has been practicing law in the city of Los Angeles where he has made an enviable record as an attorney of unquestioned character and proven ability.
The campaign headquarters at 1215 Marsh-Strong Building, is a busy place these days as his many friends are actively supporting him and working for his election. His record as a member of the Board of Education of which body he is now in his second year as Chairman of the Finance Committee, has won for him the support of his associates in that body and the respect and confidence of the public. His election seems assured from the active support given him by the many organizations which have endorsed his candidacy, and the number of prominent people who have personally interested themselves in his campaign, who will, no doubt, materially assist in bringing out a large vote in his behalf.
E. E. Millikin, the well known attorney of Los Angeles, fears for the efficiency of any State office when any attempt is made to drastically change the personnel when the man on the job have been tested and found perfectly satisfactory. Therefore he is seriously urging Southern Californians to retain Associate Justice of the Supreme Court Charles A. Shurtleff on the high bench for which he is so well qualified to fill.
R. E. Wales, representing the Shurtleff headquarters for Southern California said recently, before a group of distinguished jurists, "Of the Supreme Court, Judge Shurtleff is an incumbent, yes-for one year, the year that a new Justice requires to adjust himself to the exactions of

Is it not futile to put a new man, even with a past standing, in the place of a satisfactory incumbent just nicely working into his position, when the new man, or proposed substitute's ability on such a high court is yet to be tried?" Justice Shurtleff is directly connected with the interests of Southern California through his marriage with Miss Adda West, daughter of Captain West, of Santa Ana, and today has thrown over all election activities owing to his daily attendance on the Supreme Bench, which is in session in Los Angeles.
Justice Shurtleff has the unqualified endorsement of both outgoing and in-coming Chief Justices. Chief Justice Lucian Shaw, considered one of the greatest jurists in the State, has issued the following testimonial:
"In the present campaign there are two candidates whom it is very important to the people of the State to have retained in office. I refer to Hon. William A. Sloane and Hon. Charles A. Shurteff, at present justices of the Supreme Court, and who are candidates for re-election. I have served with both of them while they have filled the offices which they now hold, and have had occasion to observe the work they have done. They have been conscientious and faithful in the discharge of their duties, and they have brought to the performance thereof, much ability and learning. Speaking from my experience with them I desire to say that they cannot be spared, that their return is almost a necessity, and I see no reason why any voter should favor any change in the personnel of the court at this time."
The Associated Sunday schools other religious bodies., civic associations and hundreds, of attorneys have endorsed Justice Shurtleff.

SANTA BARBARA NEWS
Last Sabbath's services were splendid.
The Sabbath School was represented in a commendable number and a splendid audience came to the eleven o'clock service. At Mt. Olive Baptist Church, the pastor, Rev. H. B. Thomas, preached from the text, Ps. 72:17; subject: "The Eternal or a Lasting Name." The Junior Choir rendered excellent music, to appreciate it would be to hear it.
The text of the evening sermon was "Wishing for the Day." Acts 27: 19. It was wonderfully inspiring as the pastor told of the fishermen casting anchor from the ship; it created an atmosphere of Christian fellowship throughout the congregation. Rev. F. H. Davis who is a visitor in our city for a few days spoke words of encouragement at the beginning and close of the sermon which was thoroughly enjoyed by all; he also spoke of being renewed in spirit by both the sermon and the songs furnished by the Senior Choir and Chorister, Mrs. H. B. Thomas. Two young men have joined in the past week. There are many features scheduled for the church in the next few weeks that will be announced later—one is the Halloween party given Tuesday night by the Sunday School children.
The members of St. Paul A. M. E. Church are much encouraged over past results of their pastor Rev. C. A. Harris and are hopeful for our future prospects and plans for another year's work of success. Both Junior and Senior Choirs are doing commendable work and each auxiliary is planning a number of entertainments extending up to and including the holidays. Among the new arrivals in our city are Rev. F. H. Davis of Watts, Cal., who has been ill for a few months past but is much improved at present. We hope for him a complete recovery before leaving us. Others include Mr. Jefferson and family and Mr. Floyd Tripp of Atlanta, Georgia. We are glad to hear that Mrs. J. H. Reeves is much improved at this writing.
Mrs. Webster was a visitor in our city last week and was the house guest of Mrs. Julius Jones, her daughter-in-law. She returned to Los Angeles where she is in business.
The many friends of Mrs. C. D. Marshall can locate her at 16 East Montecito street where she has opened up a first class rooming house for the accommodation of our race she is centrally located and just one block and a half from the station.
Mrs. Theodora Lee Purnell of 1600 Woolsey street Berkeley, Cal., was a visitor in our city last week in the interest of the water and power act of the State Bond issue of Five Hundred Million Dollars. She visited all the places of interest distributing literature containing facts concerning the Bonds. Mrs. Purnell is chairman of the Women's Board Committee of Oakland, Cal.
In her field of effort we have no doubt that she will achieve success. Judging from the straight-forward manner in which she presents her subject the Board has the right woman in the right place. Mrs. Purnell was guest of Mr. and Mrs. N. F. Hill while in the city on Santa Barbara St.

We read in the papers that the Rev. Samuel Davis McConnell an Episcopallan minister for over fifty years, has denied the faith and says the church is a failure and the Bible is nothing more than a fable. Well, that does not make it true. The truth has withstood the test of Ages and the forces of persecution and still lives; and will still go marching down the Ages yet to come that too in spite of the fact that thousand more infidels as Mr. S. D. McConnel may deny the faith. Praise His Holy name.

Interesting services were held last Sunday in historic Eighth and 'Towne Avenue A. M. E. Church. Pastor Wand preached at 11 a. m. on "Prayer" and on invitation six persons came forward and united with the church. The choir sang as if by inspiration. There was a large audience including many prominent visitors.

CHURCH NOTICES
The services at Ward Chapel last Sunday were impressive. Chaplain Prioleau preached in the evening from the text "Go Forward." The sermon was such as only the Chapain can give. Next Sunday. November 5. will be General Class Day, to which all are eventually invited.
The President of the Stewardess Board with members of the Helping Hand Club and Mite Missionary Society brought to Pastor and wife last Wednesday night (after a splendid Love Feast) quite an agreeable surprise and loaded the table with groceries and good things to eat. The Pastor expressed, as well as he could in words, the sincere gratitude and high appreciation of himself and wife, of their deep interest and high esteem for the services rendered, and invited them to return whenever they pleased. Religious services at this church regularly, as at other churches in the city. A number of visitors were present last Sunday and expressed their appreciation of the services.

The Parishioners of Grant Chapel are indeed proud of the return of Dr. Price to this Pastorate, and for this reason the loyal members seem to be visiting with each other for places so labor, the church is indeed alive and the early morning prayer service is increasing numerically, spiritually and financially.
We note strange faces in our congregation at each service and they together with our own membership are loud in their praises at the close of each service. Plans are being completed for our years work. New Boards being elected and new workers appointed.
The Sunday School was delighted at the presence of returned officers and teachers from their vacations. This alone seems to add zest and vigor to the consciencious workers and gave impetus to the uninspired. The pastor spoke at both services. The subject for morning "Exultation of the righteous, Text Matt. 25:34. The evening discourse "Eve's Discourse with the Devil." Gen. 3:1:6. The choir attendance was splendid and the songs spiritually received.

CHRISTIAN CHURCH—
9th and Wall Streets.
Rev. M. Frederick Melchell, Pastor
The pastor filled the pulpit at both services Sunday. A whwolesome spiritual feast was enjoyed bly all who were present. The discourse Sunday morning was especially a rare treat. The heart and soul of it, rested upon the thought "That every follower of Jesus Christ, to his the salvation of the world. In outbursts of earnest phrases, the pastor laid the responsibility of the non Christian moral state of our neighbors and associates at the door of that Christian who fails in persuasive terms of the gospel to make an earnest effort to lead them to Christ. The discourse Sunday night was equally as interesting. Subject "Fishing on the Wrong Side of Life."
Miss Dora Robinson was the soloist for the preaching service and Miss Ruth Burry for the Y. P. S. C. E.
Last Sunday week Miss Mable Hebert whose name was omitted by mistake sang a most thrilling solo. Madam Viola, Harris Brandon was presented a baton and case by four members of the choir, and in the name of the choir, 'Also Miss E. P.
PASTOR THRILLLED AUDIENCE
Without faith our works are vain.
One of the greatest messages ever
listened to was delivered by Pastor
Holt Sunday morning. In the evening
we were again thrilled by the excellent
programme rendered by the Choir.
Every number represented the highest in musical talent. There was a round of applause on listening to those wonderful selections rendered by the Bilbrews.
Those from every phase of life represented this capacity audience. much credit is due Director C. V. Pitts with Mrs. C. V. Pitts at the piano. Officer Russell interested his audience, proved himself equal to the emergency as well as an administer of the law. But his parting words were 8 A Tuesday Nov. 7th 1922.
At the close of the evening service you are invited to commune with us. Visit us at St. Paul.
BIRCH ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH—
14th and Birch Streets
All received spiritual refreshing, at this church, last Lord's day. The pastor occupied the pulpit morning and evening and preached two soul-stirring sermons. At 11 o'clock A. M. he spoke upon the subject of "Sowing and Reaping." Gal. 6:7, 8—Be not Deceived, God is not mocked; for Whatsoever a Man Soweth, that Shall he also reap. For he that soweth to the flesh, shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting." After showing his close analogy between the world of nature and the world of spirit, he declared that nobody denies the truth of this Scripture in world of nature. It is just as true in the spiritual world as it is in the natural world. Many practical points were gained from the lesson.
Mrs. Jessie Strider in a manner most thrilling sang a solo "In the Garden." Among our many visitors and friends was Dr. B. L. Boswell. The church is highly gratified in the manner of attendance upon the part of visitors and friends. Preaching, 11:00 a. m. and 8:00 p. m.; Bible School, 9:45 a. m. and Christian Endeavor Society 7:00 p. m. A sincere and hearty welcome awaits you at this church.
Los Angeles, Cal., Oct. 21, 1922.
Mrs. A. C. Richardson,
Indeed, words are too feeble a means, by which we may convey the deep sorrow we feel in the extreme bereavement, which came to you the morning of Oct. 15th inst., in consequence of the death of your dear husband and our true and loyal brother A. C. Richardson. His life in the church was a beautiful, benevolent and an exemplary one—the abscess of which is greatly benighted by all. Our loss, in him, is irretrievable; but we feel satisfied that our loss is our eternal gain.
We tender you our sincere prayers and deepest sympathy, as we commend you to our Great Father above.
whose grace is sufficient for all our
writa. We remain your brothers in Christ

COLORED VOTERS OPPOSE REPUBLICAN OPPONENT OF DYER BILL IN DELAWARE.
Delaware's sole Congressman, C. R. Layton, Republican, is threatened with defeat by colored voters because he opposed and voted against the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill in the House of Representatives, according to announcement today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York. Colored votes may go instead to the Democratic nominee, former Judge, William H. Boyce of Dover.
At a mass meeting held in Wilmington, Delaware, on Sunday, October 15, James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. said
"Delaware's representation in Congress voted one hundred per cent against the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill when it was in the Lower House, and therefore, the colored voters of Delaware ought to vote one hundred per cent against that representation. You have the political power, the vote, and you ought to use it for your highest and best good. If there ever was an opportunity for colored voters to show that they fully appreciate the power which they have in their hands, it is the opportunity which the colored citizens of Delaware now have. You should do your utmost to defeat Congressman Layton. The issue upon which you stand is not one of petty politics, but a fundamental issue involving life, common safety and the good name of America. If you defeat Cayton you will show that you deserve the ballot and that you have manhood and common sense enough to use it.
Furthermore, you will achieve your political emancipation in the State of Delaware."
The Wilmington mass meeting was held under the joint auspices of the Anti-Lynching "Crusaders, the Independent Citizens' League, and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
Walter F. White, Assistant Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., is to speak on the same subject in Wilmington at a mass meeting planned for Sunday, October 29th.
The services were well attended last Sunday; there was a large number present from Wesley Chapel. Our temporary meeting place is at Owen's Hall. All are cordially invited.
The Water Power Act is Amendment Number 19 on the November ballot. It must be defeated. Vote NO on Amendment Number 19 November 7.

SPRING MELODIES
A GROUP OF SHORT POEMS
By: Wendell P. Gladden, Jr.
I.
BEAUTY'S HIDING PLACE
You pressed the perfumed roses
your lips.
And looked into the heart of one—
A deep-red rose of fragrance rare.
So wonderful to gaze upon;
You saw beneath its velvet petal tips
The soul of beauty hidden there.
O. the strength of the sea, the rolling sea.
The bounding and swelling of the ocean's breast:
O. the rhythm, the heaving immensity
Where seamen their wisdom and
bravery test.
Far out on the restless, roaring deep
Where the thundering sea meets the
azure sky—
On the foaming; tumbling waves that
leap
In all their grandeur—God is pass-
ing by.
Something came into my life today—
Bringing with it the bright and blooming May.
Giving back the joy of living too—
My poor soul with sunshine seeping through.
Thrills with joy and hope and love that's true.
And I know that something dear, is you.
How great is the pain of love and grief!
grief!
Ah, love that was wont to bring relief
And succor in the days of old.
To make my aching heart grow hold.
Ah, once too oft into your eyes I
gazed!
Into your lovely, shining eyes,
amazed.
I saw your soul reflected there and
felt
The stinging blow your heart, defiant,
dealt.
Y. M. C. A. NOTES
YMCA
Now that the Track season is over and the Ninth Street Branch has successfully conducted its annual meet, attention may be called to the summer program.
Among the many activities scheduled is the indoor baseball tournament to be staged under the auspices of the Y in connection with the work of the Inter-Sunday School Athletic League. Recently a meeting of Superintendents was called, but only a few were able to attend. However, those present decided favorably on the following plan of organization:
1. This organization shall be known as the "Inter-Sunday School Athletic League," composed of all Sunday Schools in the city.
2. Any Sunday School may become a member of the league by expressing its desire through its superintendent and by registering name of said school though a member may play on the team of another Sunday School by permission of the officers and members.
3. The officers shall be a president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, and manager. All officers shall be held by superintendents, except that of manager, which office is to be held by the Boys' Work Secretary of the Y. M. C. A. The manager may have assistants to aid him in the work.
4. The organization shall meet the first of each quarter or four times a year.
5. An Executive Committee appointed by the chairman shall meet monthly with the manager as an ex-officio member—he, the manager, preparing the program of direction for the meeting each month.
6. All clean sports which appeal to the youth shall be considered and given proper guidance.
7. Election of officers to be held during January of each year.
8. All games shall be played on city playgrounds, public school indoor diamonds, at picnics, etc.
A big camp booster will be held at the Y next Tuesday, June 12th, at 7:45 p.m. for the purpose of planning for the summer camp conducted each year by the Y, M. C. A.
Another meeting of all the Sunday School superintendents has been called for next Wednesday evening, June 12 at 7:30.

eighteen Beautiful Artists, Wed. Eve.
July 11, Independents Church, 18th and
Paloma!
By Wendell P. Gladden, Jr.
Men who see the dawn—the first blush and glow of the morning—are those who labor. They are the back bone of the community—these men strong-limbed, clear-visioned, and able to withstand the vicissitudes of life. Gaze upon them! Meet them, greet them, mingle with them—ah, how many trudge along in the Valley of Sorrow, still faithful to principles, striving: sometimes with faces empty of dreams, and life-long desires! And yet, how worthy are these, who push and pray, God! What a vital pulsating stream of men!
It is their love of the All-Powerful and mother, wife, and children—pride of race—the soft, warm, kindly touch, inspiring voice, laughing childhood, that give strength for another fight. These are the men—oftimes industrial slaves—who through hard, manual work, give service for others, yet glorify themselves, though they know it not. Peering over the veil of present sufferings, injustice, and oppression—they glimpse the dawn—and seeing, understandingly brave bitter battles for the realization of their dreams.
Then come those who are trained for mental labor. From dawn to death of day, they work unceasingly for their fellowmen—or how could men build magnificent edifices, great bridges, locomotives, keep pace with this commercial age? It is the monotony of the every-day routine work behind the desk high in sky-scrapers; the executives, stenographers, bookkeepers, and the mighty forces that cope with and keep abreast of, the swirling business world.
These too, see the dawn—beyond the veil of economic crises—the fight of employee and employer, the housing situation in great over-populated cities—and, far-visioned they proclaim the brighter day. So with new methods, original ideas, increased knowledge of the needs of their fellow-men, and the acquisition of better business tactics, the education and co-operation of employee and employer, they pledge their lives for unselfish service.
Here in America, and in the four corners of the world, black men are among these groups. They have soil and still feel the urge for education, wealth, and culture, independence, and respect and some day, they shall rise and know their strength. Old traditions, customs and prejudices shall be as naught when the darkskinned workers, laborers, thinkers, realize that they have as much right on this earth as the dominant. They linger now, only long enough to bring about unity of purpose, aim, and action; and then even through blodosed, they shall attain the heights which all free men should know and deserve. Black men are not as ashamed, nor unmindful of the attitude of the world, but are awakening, thinking, and peering, straining through the misty mysterious veil for the light and the crimson glow, and then the flood of dawn.
Choral Work Spreads Among Our Group
Self-expression in music for colored Americans has lately been advanced through the work among colored people conducted by Community Service. That national civic organization maintains a special music organizer, George L. Johnson, for work among the colored groups which operate under the local Community Service organizations. Several recent concerts illustrate the opportunity that is being given for the development of musical talent among the colored people. For instance, in a program given by Douglass Branch, Community Service in Huntington, West Virginia, numbers were given by a mixed chorus and by a men's and women's glee club, in addition to offerings of talented soloists. The music used included not only the best output of Negro composers but other standard works. Dr. W. R. Franklin, the chairman of the music committee, carried on that branch of the work in Huntington.
A similar alignment of choral groups appeared in a program at Coffyville, Kansas, under the direction of Mr. Johnson, who offered several favorite concert songs as solos. A feature of this and the other programs was the singing of the national Negro anthem, "Lift Every Voice and Sing," composed by J. Rosamond Johnson.
The Annual Spring Musicale presented by the Federation for Social Service in Dayton, Ohio, introduced the Jubilee Chorus in several spirituals: the H. T. Burleigh Glee Club, the latter named for the entinent Negro composer; the Girl's Glee Club of the Steel High School; the Malleable Iron Works Glee Club; a double quintette of the "Missere" from "Il Trovatore;" and the Community Service mixed quartet: Bertrand Brown's song "Baby," was sung by Mrs. Maude Wolken.

LYCEUM.TEAM
M. Y. C. A. T R A C K MEET
DECORATION DAY
In what was considered the best Annual YMCA Track and Field meet staged so far, the Young People's Lyceum team carried off first honors with a total of sixty points.
The Lyceum won eight first places beside the half-mile relay. This team has been awarded two silver loving cups; one for the largest number of points scored and the other for the relay. U. S. C. was second with thirty-six. Because of an accident of one of its members, the college team did not enter the relay, as was expected.
Walalyn Stovall was the individual star and high point man of the meet. He won four first and two second places. Stovall ran under the colors of the Lyceum team, and was responsible for the team's great showing. This is the third consecutive time he has won out. He was awarded with a handsome medal and cup for his splendid work. Besides he was given a medal for each of the events which he won. Walalyn was also entered in the relay, and won one and a quarter points, which brought his total to twenty-seven and a quarter.
Ed Shaw was second highest point man with fourteen. His performance was remarkable owing to the fact that he had not been in training. John Riddle, U. S. C. all-round athlete, Charles Sanders, the great little star of the Lyceum, and Archie Woodyard, of the Lyceum and the city's best sprint ace, and Ivan Johnson, U. S. C. were chief of the stars of the meet. Despite the condition of the track and field, all athletes performed wonderfully.
Too much credit can not be given to the track and field officials for their work, which was done under difficulty. Will Herman, moving picture actor, was on the job wint a camera man from the Pathe Studio to make a picture of the meet for the Pathe News Reel which the public and the world will have the pleasure of viewing in a short time. Gold, silver, and bronze medals, and ribbons were awarded the winners and those who placed in the various events.

STYLE SUGGESTIONS
Bv: FLORA DORA
Silk sports blouses, top off the dashing spring sports outfit. With a smart tailored or four-in-hand bow at the neck and turn-back cuffs linked or buttoned together, the wearer is equipped for the day's adventures. The new shades are—Red, Blue, Green, Paris Gray, Madeline Rose, Orchid, Jade, White, Sunset, Caramel, Black and Lanvin. Some of loveliest underwear are of "tie-dyed" silk. Piping in contrast colors is used very effectively on the new jingerie. Pagoting is the latest of the old-time trimmings which are used so profusely on the new spring togs. The smartest hose for spring are exquisitely sheer. A black crepe wrap is all-over embroidered in eige with motifs in jade green. Paris fastens Jacquettes with a bow, and dresses, coats, even collars this spring.
Plaits are delightfully new this season and make the simplest frock interesting. Printed fabrics are very smart today. So in the Egyptian girdle.
Colored kids are all latest in footwear
wear.
Ah, Madam how exceedingly chic
to have Madame's lingerie daintily
embroidered in tiny rose buda.
IN THE MUSIC WORLD
By John A. Grey
Happy is the child who is blessed with parents who are in sympathy with his musical development. Such a child will take greater interest in his studies and will develop much faster than the child whose parents seem to ignore or treat lightly his accomplishments. The fountain of inspiration has its source in the home and when that home contains true music-lovers, there is a great incentive for serious study on the part of the student who lives in that home.
It is as necessary for the parents to study music appreciation as it is for the student to study his instrument. If the boy or girl is at work on a difficult classical selection, which in most cases they dislike, and the parent should express a dislike for the same piece, what chance has the teacher to elevate the musical taste of the pupil?
Parent should always consult the teacher about music that they do not understand before expressing their dislike before the child. It may be that the particular piece was given for a special purpose and although the child may detest it, it is good medicine for him. The intelligent parent will always find some appropriate remark on occasions of this kind.
Parents should always consult theical events, stories of operas and other stories of musical intelligence to their children as they develop musical understanding." says the Evening Post of Lindsay, Ontario, in Canada. The advancement of music is certain to create a universal desire for it. Libraries, where music is presented will also be a great help to parents in conducting the music hour in the home, especially when the children are studying music themselves. The music pages of the newspapers will also be one of the big factors in making the music hour a fixed institution in the home.
The children of future generations will talk about opera and concerts of the highest order as they now do about movies and baseball. They may even form opera companies in their own communities."
The parent who really understands music can be of real help to the child when he encounters a difficult spot in the lesson. To help him over this spot may save him from having to review the lesson, thus he gets ahead of the pupil who has to "take an assignment over again."
EDUCATIONAL NOTES
By William Narcisse.
In the National Inter-scholastic track and field meet held at Stagg Field, Chicago, last Saturday, Pasadena's fast relay team took third place. Hurlic and Whizzar were responsible for the splendid showing made by quartet. These are the only two lads of color to participate in the meet this year. Last year Ed Shaw from Monrovia was sent to Chicago, winning the 440 and tying for first in the high jump.
Last week, Lincoln for the fourth year annexed the Freshmen City meet. The freshmen are divided into three classes, namely: the pinety pound class, the one hundred and fifteen pound class and the unlimited class.
In the one hundred and fifty pound class, Adolphus Jones did his stuff for Lincoln by taking third in the 100 and 220 yd. dashes. Leo Lawrence, of the same school, was fourth in the 100 and 220.
Jimmy Sims, the heavy-hitting piece of furniture, and second sacker of the Long Beach base ball team, proved himself worthy as a hitter last Friday against Lincoln. Sims connected with

The rapid increase in population is bound to cause real estate to increase in value.

the ball twice for doubles, and the rest of the time up, he got three singles.
James Norman, spinner de luxe, last Wednesday got second in the first heat of the 100 yd. dash, but did not enter the finals because of lack of training. Let it be known that this was the first time Jimmy Norman had on a pair of spikes since the last "Y" meet. Many of you who remember back in 1921 and 1922 when Jimmy was in his prime as a sprinter, when he was a member of Lincoln's Championship track team those two years. In the dual meets of those years gone by, he and Stapler always got first or second, or vice versa. Jimmy Norman will never be forgotten, especially by the Lincoln students and his name like Stapler and Myles, has gone down in the annals of the Lincoln High School athletic history.
TENNIS CHATTER
Last Fed Meeting Wednesday, June
6th Before "Hop-Off to Frisco" —
Seen and Heard
(By William Mells Watson)
(1555 Court Street, Drexel 3742)
We see and hear—that charming Mrs. Edina Adams Roseo Hamilton Broyles of Santa Monica, the adorable prexy of the Parthenai girls is the latest 40 break out in brand new Maxwell 23 Sport Model speed wagon and is to be crowned the highway queen—Atta baby Rosco.
That everybody will get a slant at the wonderful Bertha Miller trophy at the Western Federation of Tennis Clubs "On to Frisco" dance next Monday night, June 4. at Normandie, when the Black and Tan jazz manipulkers strut their stuff or one Lucion Douglas Miller had better camp outta town until the entiraped natives and tennis savages recover their mental equilibrium.
That J. R. Norwood, a fine young business man of Santa Barbara and a good all around sport, with a capital "S", who is stopping at 1318, East 27th street, South 3907, is much interested in the "onto Frisco" thing, and is willing to haul three or four locals north in his hot little "Dodge 23" for the cost of the gas, "unmarried beauties welcome also". Better phone this bird, it costs $22.50 by rail and a lot more by the sore foot route. Here also, is a splendid chance for
First Vice-President Mrs. Mrs. Hazel Dick. Temple of District No. I, to get busy as brother Norwood says the natives of Santa Barbara are "rarin to go" for a high-powered tennis club.
Grand Prize Ball To Be Given
"A Night at the Country Club" is the way the Grand Prize Ball to be given under the management of Romeo Loving, Harry Southard and Lindsey Jones at Arion Hall, Monday night, June 11th, is being featured.
The event promises to be of great interest. The prizes to be awarded the ladies include a bathing suit, from Bullocks; a pair of shoes from Gude's, a manicure set from Tufts-Lyons, and a pair of silk stockings from the Bottery—all high class shoes, whose goods are worth "trying for."
The incomparable Black and Tan will syncopate on this occasion, and that popular personage, Professor F. Wells, will be floor manager.

Sea Cliff, Long Island, N. Y. June.
The value of a bridegroom depends not so much upon race as financial status, is the comment heard have since Miss Jenteen Stiefel, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Stiefel, prominent white people, was married tonight in St. Lake's Episcopal Church to Samuel Fung, a young Chinese, Assistant Treasurer of the Wah Chung Trading Corporation, with offices in the Woolworth Building, New York. The ceremony, a surprise to the bride's friends, was saluted by the Rev. J. R. Alten, rector of the church. Fung and his bride will leave shortly on a honeymoon in Bermuda and the Orient. The bride and bridegroom not nearly two years age at the home of H. C. Leo, President of the Corporation, at Thompson Park, near where Alfred Lee, Chinese Minister in the United States, frequently visits vacationers. Mrs. Leo is the bridegroom's sister. Mr. Fung is a medical engineer, graduate of Brown Institute of Technology. He is twenty one years of age. His bride is twenty
The Forum fills a niche in the civic life of Los Angeles, that is not even approached by any other organization. Yet you frequently hear jessting remarks about it that would lead one to believe that it is anything but representative. However this may be, the Forum is the only organization we have where all questions pertaining to our civic betterment can get a respectful hearing. n fact, it is the only training school we have for fitting our young men for public life. It is unfortunate that so few young men take advantage of these opportunities. Perhaps it is not altogether their fault. Older men should take a deeper interest in the young men and encourage them to prepare themselves in vry way possible for future usefulness, for whatever of leadership we have must soon rest upon their shoulders.
If a casual observer should "listen in" on the various groups of young men along the crowded thoroughfare he would invariably hear one or more of the following subjects under discussion: "joy-riding," "boot-legging," "gambling," and "women." If you doubt this, investigate for yourself. This of course may be true of other races, but it remains a stubborn fact that we have by far the greater proportion. We must find a way to interest these young people into some of the nobler things of life, and the Forum is the best medium to widen their vision and increase their aspirations for bigger things.
Professional and business men should take more interest in the civic betterment of the community. If the Forum is not what it should be, they should take a hand in its affairs and raise it to the required standard. You may rest assured that the business or professional man who takes no interest in the welfare of the people of his community, they will sooner or later lose interest in him.
To those who are inclined to underestimate the influence of the Forum, we venture to assert that any Race man who seeks public office and ignores the Forum will find himself trailing in the dust. If you don't believe it, just toss your hat in the ring. A casual glance at those who are most active in the Forum will disclose the fact that they are also those that are most active in all other movements that make for the betterment of the community as well as activity in public life. The mere acquisition of dollars and cents is not all of life. The desire to be a useful citizen by serving your fellowman should be the highest aim of any race or people, and this is just what the Forum stands for.
"For life is a mirror of king an dslave, 'Tis just what you are and do;
So give to the world the best you have,
And the best will come back to you."
CALEXICO NEWS
The Eight grade commencement excercises of the Calexico Public School were Thursday night, May 31st. There were 38 members of the class of which four were colored girls, namely: Miss Sumatria Gamblin, Shebenia Finney, Luretta Featherstone and Williamae McCollum, "Conquer we Must," was the inspiring class motto with which members advance to the higher education.

Milledgeville, Ga. June 6—Dr. M. C. Mitchell, prominent druggist of Macon, who was convicted of poisoning Sam Mitchell, his nephew, to collect his insurance and sentenced for life to the State farm here, has written Governor Hardwick, making a plea for executive clemency.
The former physician protests his innocence and says that his aged mother and family are suffering because of his incarceration. He has a friend at court in the person of Col. Walter A. Gilbert, white, U. S. Army officer now judge advocate at Ft. Sam Houston, Texas, who also has written Gov. Hardwick, declaring he had examined the record in the case and Mitchell was found guilty solely on the "guess of the jury, the evidence being totally insufficient to legally convict. The Governor replied that inasmuch as no petition for pardon had been formally filed with the prison commission, he could take no action at the present time.

Ada Bell Griffin Displays Rare Artistry
On Wednesday night, June 6th, Ada Bell Griffin, New England's great dramatic impersonator, appeared in Recital at Hamilton M. E. Church, under the auspices of Bethel Baptist Church. Miss Griffin impersonated the entire cast of characters in the famous crook melodrama, "Within the Law," thus offering an entertainment as brilliant as it was unique in local amusement annals.
Miss Griffin is a young woman of splendid stage presence and magnetic personality. She showed herself to be an artist of genius, developed by skilled training in declamation and pantomime, by the diverse characterizations she offered in this popular play, whose stellar role, "Mary Turner," has been made famous by such artists as Mary Nash, Jane Cowl and Margaret Illington. The play is one of thrilling interest, well-sustained suspense, with dramatic climaxes skillfully worked up, furnishing an excellent vehicle for this splendid, versatile race artist.
The audience was a small one in numbers, bus enthusiastically responsive and Miss Griffin, by popular request, will repeat her performance before leaving California at a time and place to be announced later. All lovers of artistic, dramatic entertainment are urged not to miss the next and last opportunity to hear Miss Griffin.
Rev. S. M. Beane, pastor of Hamilton M. E. Church, delivered the Invocation which preceded the program. Miss Ernestine Jones contributed a pleasingly rendered vocal solo, "My Task," by E. L. Aashford and Owen A. Troy, talented violinist, played that perennial favorite, "The Rosary," which was received with appreciative acclaim.
In conclusion, a few well-worded remarks were made by that scholarly Divine, Rev. H. D. Prowd, of eBthel Baptist Church.
Don't forget to watch for the time and place of Miss Griffin's next and last appearance in the Southland. As a great artist and as a worthy Race woman—she merits our patronage!

One of the besetting sins of the Negro race is the lack of of ambition in our young men and women. Too much time is lost at pool playing, dancing, baseball, basketball and cards. Not that these sports and amusements are not highly desirable, but it is a mistake to give all one's time to mere passing fancies and fads. There is too little initiative in Negroes. That explains why few of them attempt to run businesses. The average young man is willing to get into a post office job which pays about $120 per month, and there remain the rest of his life. The average young woman will get a teacher's job in the schools and remain till retired on a pension. Too many young men from our colleges are content to be railroad porters for the rest of their lives.
Now there is no dishonor at working on a pullman car, teaching school or clerking in the post office. All are legitimate, useful kinds of work. But Negroes should desire to advance as rapidly and as often as possible. A white man will become a city councilman one year. A few years later he is trying for the State Senate. Later we see him running for Congress. A few years hence he may be governor of the state. Then his eyes get fastened on the U. S. Senate. And having reached this high Pisgah, his stare is next on the Promised Land of the United States Presidency. This is as it should be. One should have the ambition to advance—to go higher. If a clerk in a bank today, one should hope for the tellership within the next few years, then the assistant Cashiership, the cashier's position and finally the bank presidency.
Of course, we realize that this deadened ambition on the part of Negroes grows, partly out of closing the doors of hope to them in America. If a man of college training can get only a pullman porter's job, the man of no education says: "Well, what's the use of spending thousands of dollars for education, if the investment will not enable you to do any more than one who spends nothing in training?" And there is some logic in the contention.
The answer to this is that the trained man is ready when opportunity arises. Negroes prior to the war were denied places as machinists; they were refused opportunities to work in the building trades as skilled laborers. But along came the war. More men were needed. They were needed right then. The call went out for mechanics regardless of color. And in stepped Negro brick masons, plasterers, machinists, etc. Had they not been prepared by previous training at Hampton, Tuskegee, St. Paul School, and similar industrial schools there would have been no time to wait three or four years for them to learn the trade. But being ready, they were able to get in and probably intrench themselves so far as we know. It is certain that should this immigration remain cut off, the Negroes will become intrenched in the industries in every part of this nation.
We need more ambition and more sense of sacrifice among us.
There must be a willingness
to rise early in the morning, wait on table, run elevators, work at switch boards—in short, to do any honest work to secure education, or to get on in our business. Splurging must go. Too many Negroes are getting automobiles before they get houses and homes. The cart is put before the horse. The shadow is being accepted for the substance. This will never do. No one is fooled but ourselves. Instead of merely putting up a strong front with a weak back, let us build more securely, lay a firm foundation in fundamental achievement growing out of praiseworthy ambition. More ambition of the right kind is a worthy slogan for our race to adopt.
"WITHIN THE LAW."
The Melodrama in three acts rendered by Ada Bell Griffin last Wednesday evening furnished one of the most unique programs Los Angeles has ever enjoyed, and the moral lesson, to say nothing about the artistic interpretation, was worth the price extracted from those who came to hear and see. However, such artists as Mrs. A. C. Bilbrew, E. Robert-Saunders and Mrs. Williams, and others expressed a desire to hear Miss Griffin again under more favorable circumstances.
YOUR BODY NEEDS TO BATHE IN AIR.
YOUR BODY NEEDS TO BATHE IN AIR.
By Dr. E. B. Lewis, B. Sc., M. D.
1618 1-2 East 9th Street.
Your skin gasps for breath as much as it thirsts for water. Perhaps you take your bath in a tub every day, but do not bathe in the God-given atmosphere? Sunlight and air are, if possible, more in demand by your vital tissues than water. Maladies that are nurtured by stale, indoor gases—air is rarely found in its native purity between four walls—at times fade away when saturated by the sunlight atmosphere.
As far back as 1865, Arnold Pikli, a Swiss observer, proposed that doctors stop talking idly and wildly about "fresh air and sunlight," and get down to a common practical method whereby persons could take atmospheric baths in the sunlight as regularly every day as they take their meals. As usual, many medical men considered Mr. Pikli a publicity seeker and a money grabber; but Dr. Heinrich Lahmann, of Dresden, took up the matter seriously at that time.
He installed air baths in some German cities. There air baths are larger than many public parks. Woodland, meadow, pasture or other greensward beyond the built-up suburbs are enclosed and fitted with lockers and apparatus for light exercise. Shower baths are also provided to be used after the air baths to remove the perspiration, dust and dirt. "Air bath meadows," as they are called can be easily established at practically no cost in the gardens or back yards of any dwelling.
Screens and hedges secure the privacy of both the public and private air baths. In England the charge is 2 1-2 pence to enter the air bath establishments and to stay as long as you please. Separate "air bath meadows" for children and women are maintained. The sports and light exercises directed for women differ from those planned for men.
A bath—whether air, water, mud, light, electricity or what not—has for its object the health of the skin and other physiological parts. n the ordinary course of human existence the health of the skin is sacrificed to the
suffocating effects of garments. Clothing both in the winter and the summer keeps the air from the skin. It cannot breathe except the used-up air between the neither garments and its outer surface is removed.
Values are Various
When you occasionally observe an oppressive sensation indoors, in crowds and elsewhere, the faintness that ensues may at times be due to the vain attempt of the fresh air. The air bath thus accommodates the needs of the skin.
It provides free exhalation of gases and the absorption of fresh air. Unless the poisons which modern customs of wearing apparel dam up into the pores of the flesh are withdrawn as well by air baths, sunlight and water baths, the vitality of your blood and brawn cannot expect to keep pace with that of your fellow-laborers.
There are many reasons why air baths accomplish much good. They make the skin more adaptable to exposure, less prone to the sensitivity which makes you fall a victim to the infections called "colds", the blood in the skin is invigorated with oxygen which spreads to the farthermost corners of your anatomy; it diverts the thoughts and emotions, and in more ways than there is space to describe. Fresh air baths give aid and comfort to the powers of human health.

THE BYSTANDER
A chord from which most speakers find ready and instantaneous response nowadays, is any mere or referential statement concerning the financial gouging, and quantitative instead of the qualitative condition of our ministry. The reaction is great, and the populace seem bold and loud in their acclaim when denunciations are hurled challenging the men of God to look up and lift up, or cease unprepared efforts to befuddle the people. It is useless for anyone to attempt to stifle this rising tide of public sentiment, for the well need no physician, but the sick had best seek some resort or occupation conductive to their health. Ministers who are prepared and able need not fear the slightest suggestion or criticism offered by anybody, but good or bad, any man ordained by the Almighty to preach wastes time when he attempts to defend the springing up here and of quacks called by nobody, and little store room churches which reflect vastly more than they add. We love to think of a religion with clean cut, intelligent and business like men attached just as any other profession or occupation that merits talent and time. We deplore the pessimistic, down-cast, slothful, unprepared son of righteousness who would have us believe that others can have all of this world, just give us Jesus. This was good doctrine in slavery, for there was nothing else to look forward to but Jesus. But in this day and time, when everything and everybody is active and alert, we need religion that will make us honest, active, keen, aggressive and good citizens. Any church or pastor that opposes such a program is against progress. And churches which fail to add to the good of their communities great or small should be run out of business with good ministers taking the lead.

Our Young Men
Young men for war and old men for council was the slogan of old. But lest we forget, and that we be mindful of our surroundings and circumstances, suppose we make a resume of the activities of the young in and about business. The happy result will inevitably mean young men not only for physical, but today, for the intellectual and financial wars. On Central Ave. alone you meet young Drs. Pillows, dentist, Williams, dentist, Stovall, medicine, Green, dentist, Canaday, dentist, Towles, medicine; Willie Roberts, undertaking; Harrison and Watkins, American Woodmen; Joslin Josephs and Lewis, photography; George Beavers and Houston, insurance; Bateman, woodwork; and many others scattered here and there
This is a formidable array of youngsters, pluckily pursuing their chosen avenues of life. They are making good in spite of the efforts of some more aged individuals, hurling insinuations at youth, for fear that youth with its courage and vigor will swoop down on antiquated ideas and submerge them with the more modern and up-to-date. The Negro like other races is beginning to believe in its young and to know that their minds are fresh active and alert. They learn, retain and practice. They plan, they do, and feel by no means disposed to sit in any gathering or meeting arguing in a circle till down. They deride the jealous, cut-throat spirit in business, and practice the professional ethics so long forgotten by some of our fellows in business. This group ushers in a new era which will effect the unity, strength and progress of our people in the future.
Foolish Prejudice
The late Booker T. Washington used to tell a story which had a twofold meaning. One was the manner of using color prejudice, or rather overcoming it, for your own convenience, and the other was to show how foolishly ignorant those who exhibit color prejudice are. It was during one of the Doctors speaking tours of the South, and after the meeting in the city, where the incident occurred, he had to reach the train leaving at a certain hour in order to be in time for his next engagement.
He found a cabman dosing on the box of his cab and awakening him, made known his desire to reach the railway station, and asked the amount of the fare.
The cabby stretched, yawned, and peered down into the face of Booker T. and observing the color of his, would be, fare exclaimed with indignation that he had never drove a "nigger" in his life. "Oh well!" said the great educator "you get inside and I will drive. I can drive a cab very well." The doctor drove himself to the station, paid the cabman one dollar, and caught his train in time for the next engagement. We wonder if that cabman ever considered how foolish it was to accept payment for his foolish prejudice.
Among the treaks in a circus was a fat midget, a lady whose breadth was equal to her length, and the specimen termed the "What is it?" Preliminary to the performance hte freaks were parading the arena. The fat lady-midget fell, and owing to her peculiar shape, was not able to regain her feet. The "What is it?" seeing her predicament offered to assist her, but she rolled over and seeing his color waved him away, and lay in that position until one of the white employees came to her assistance.
The pin-headed "What is it?" showed a spirit of helpfulness: What did the fat lady midget show?
A well dressed white man boarded a street car and tok on seat along side of a colored man equally well dressed. Evidently the white man had not noticed the color o the other, and when he did, moved his seat. When he was comfortably seated along came a man, also white, who had evidently been toiling in some white substance which adhered to his clothing, there being but two vacant seats the toiler preferred to sit by the side of one of his own complexion, and when he has proved fatal to so many of her kind.
But what we wish to know is. Why the request and what prompted it? arose to leave the ear he left the impress of his companionship all over well dressed colored man. Foolish color prejudice.
Florida Peonage No More
At last Florida purges herself of the banetal disease of peonage which has cankered for years her body politic. The system of peonage has corrupted the men who were responsible for the just enforcement of the law it has beastfallen her judges; brutalized her sheerfs, and made thieves and perjurers of all who came under the blighting influence of the mercenary motives that prompted the law which created it.
It was through the initiative measure taken by the legislature of North Dakota that Florida was forced to probe the system by which violating the vagrant law were leased by the county officials in the warring states.
porations and individuals.
In the year 1919 a law was passed forbidding the leasing of state convicts.
The legislature also passed an act forbidding the use of the "Black Auntie" and passed an act limiting the fine or term of imprisonment which a judge may impose for vagrancy.
If those acts are enforced, which we believe they will, it will mean that an end has been made to th barter of votes for free labor. It will mean that no longer Negro men and women will be picked up o n the slightest pretext and framed out to pay political debts. It will mean that no longer will the black muck of the glades and swamps become the last resting place for those who were dealt the death blow.
The spotlight of human justice has been turned on Florida and she has awakened to the enormity of the cancer which was gnawing at her industrial vitals. It took the death of a white lad to do it, and the influence of a Dakota legislature to show it the way, but has been done and thousands of poor Negroes will reap the benefit.
She Was Not A Negro
Down in Luray, Vn., a woman made the dying request that a pet hen which she owned should be killed and buried with her in the same coffin.
Her friends were anxious to agree with the request so they caught the hen and sought to separate her from this mundane sphere by the following routes. First they tried the chloroform road as the most direct, but "Biddy" made a polite declination and absolutely refused. Next fromolddeyde was used with the same result; so the "High Lord Executioner" brought the block and the axe and "Biddy" departed by the route which Fear comes from ignorance and ignorance From Environment

It is a lonely little spot and is isolated from the regular trend of travel.
A party of vslitors recently thought to give a little diversion to the folks and arranged a movie show.
One of the films depicted a railway train in motion, and when it came rushing down the screen in a close up the audience broke up and fled for safety.
If that audience had been some color other than white, columns would have been written about the inherited instinct of fear which were the relics of jungle days. But this incident did not happen in "Dixie."
"PERISCOPE"
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Savannah, Ga., June 6.—Pythian Circles in this state are much disturbed over charges and counter charges which are flying about between officers and prominent members of the order. Last fall after the death of the Grand Chancellor to the State an investigation o f the affairs of the lodge was instituted. Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green visited the state and decreed that an audit of the finances be made. It is now claimed by those opposed to the present administration that $10,000 was loaned to the Supreme Chancellor or the Supreme lodge by the endowment board and that the audit expected was never made, that money belonging to the grand lodge has been squandered and that officers are carrying members of their families on the pay roll who have given no service to the order.
NASHVILLE, Tenn., June 6.—The two colored candidates for the City Council from the 3d and 4th wards of this city were defeated at the election last Tuesday. Eight-tenths of the voters in these wards are colored, there being only about 30 white voters in one ward and about 60 in the other. The majority of colored men claim they voted for the colored candidates and their defeat is a puzzle. "There must have been no bottom in the ballot box we voted in," said one irate colored citizen. Considerable dissatisfaction exists as a result of the outcome. Hilary B. House, favored by the colored voters, was elected.

Tononto, Can., June 6.—"Strut Miss Lizzie," owned and trained by S. H. Dudley, the well-known Colored comedian, and mounted by Jockey Smallwood, captured the Cavendish Plate at Woodbine Track last Saturday, in the presence of Lord Byng, Governor General of Canada, and his staff and a crowd of 30,000 spectators. "Strut" outdistanced a field of eleven and her performance was loudly applauded. Doing the fiveurlings in 102, she rewarded her supporters handsomely, paying 17 to 1. Robt. P. Edwards.

Trenton, N. J. June 6.—The Harding Administration was censured in a resolution adopted yesterday at a State conference of colored Republicans held in the Assembly Chamber for its failure to appoint enough colored men to office. The independents of last fall's election were in evidence.
Th National Administration was also criticized for paying deference to the whims and wishes of the South, which was described as politically a hostile field which never wavers in opposition to Republican policies.

Life is no primrose path to travel.
Jesus Christ belonged to the true race of prophets. He saw with open eyes th mystery of the soul, drawn by its severe harmony, ravished with its beauty. He lived in it and had his being there.
Thought may work cold and intransitive in things, and find no end, or unity; but the dawn of the sentiment of virtue on the heart gives, and is the assurance that law is sovereign over all natures; and the world, time, space, eternity, do seem to break out into joy.
The thing we call civilization is nothing in the world, nothing but sentiment, the incarnation of the invisible idea. Everything in creation that breathes and speaks, are but the reflection and embodiment of the soul of their creator. No race or nation can long exist in the same atmosphere and at the summit of their glory forever. They either go up or down. They never stand still.
Evil is mere privative, not absolute; it is like cold which is the privation of heat. All evil is so much death or nonentity. Benevolence is absolute and real. So much benevolence as a man hath, so much life hath he. For all things proceed out of the same spirit, which is differently named love, justice, temperance in its different applications.
Man fallen into superstition, idolatry, sensuality can never reach that stage of life to be really happy. Men who blaspheme God, curse His church and turn away from His teachings, may think they are immune from further appeals from God's Saints, but before they close their eyes in death, they will seek Him whom they persecuted and cry unto Him whom they scorned.
To understand man, we must look beyond the individual man and his actions, or interest and view him in combination with his fellows. It is in society that man first feels what he is and first becomes what he can be. In society an altogether new set of spiritual activities are evolved in him. Society is the genial element wherein his nature first lives and grows. The solitary men are but a small portion of themselves and must continue forever folded in, stunted and only half alive.
* * *
Man has joined, himself with man Soul acts and re-acts on soul; a mystic miraculous, unfathomable union es tablishes itself; life in all its elements has become intensified, consecrated. The lightning spark of thought generated, or rather heaven—kindled, in the solitary mind awakens its express likeness in another mind—in thousands of other minds and all blazes up together into one big brotherhood of man. Knowing neither color of skin, nor superiority of creation, but as God willed it, that out of the dust of the earth, he made man and breathed into him the breath of life, and he becomes a living soul.
LAW MUST BE ENFORCED
The matter of law enforcement is simply one of getting the proper viewpoint in connection with one's citizenship duties. It makes but little difference if one be classified as a wet or a dry, as that general classification is understood when the question of law enforcement is raised. There is only one side to that question, only one place where, the law abiding citizen may take position. If government is to survive and be effective, if property and life are to be kept, laws must be enforced and applied as they are written. There is no half-way place. If laws may be set aside at the wish of the individual, then all laws fail and government, as it is now organized, is at an end. Disregard of law, and lack of enforcement to make it effective undermine government.
THE FLAPPER
The flapper always gets attention beyond her deserts. The unusual is conspicuous. The house may have a hundred windows, but the one that hangs in the wind of a stormy night disturbs everyone while no one notice the misty daze that do the umbrellas work for which they were made. The under-dressed, over-painted, super-concious young woman flapping about the city streets is one in a thousand. Multitudes, nee and hear her who overlook the demure companions in home and school.
Because a few dazzling flappers put themselves in the view of those who cannot help but see the notion gets into the mind of the community that girlhood has become abnormal and altogether supercilial. Grandmothers of hoop skirt memories are sure that former girls were better than theirs.
short-skirted little granddaughters. Granny is mistaken, her judgment is warped. The modern girl lives in another world from that in which even her mother lived. A thousand influences touch her that were not known a generation ago. Any alert child of spirit will react to change of environment. That adjustment may seem strange to older folk but it deserves sympathetic undestanding. School, home, girl and young women organizations will reveal the rank and file of young women live as sweet, as tender, as lovingly ambitions as ever in the past. There are more intelligent mothers today than ever before and as loving as those of olden time. Their daughters are superior of necessity, a few little flappers to the contrary notwithstanding.

WESLEY CHAPEL
Wesley moves on in its progressive way. Each Sunday in the pastor furnishing sermons which are jewels in thought and preparation. Last Sunday was communion Sunday and some 300 souls were made glad by being able to again commemorate the death and suffering of our Lord.
The Organ Recital was the expected feature. Each Sunday it is a rare treat to listen for fifteen minutes to the well arranged and admirably ordered selections of the organist. The Young People's League which meets each Sunday evening had one of its banner meeting Sunday. Mr. E. W. Kyle gave one of the most interesting addresses yet heard by the League. The Literary opened Tuesday evening with a bang and it went over the top in great shape. It meets each first and third Tuesday evenings. An All Men's Concert is scheduled for June 15th at which time All Men will participate. Persons continue to join and all departments are continually growing.
THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH—
10th and 11th Streets
The Church is sailing . smoothly along with all the howling winds that have come against her. Yet Jehovah is her rightful owner; and the Emmanual is her captain: the Holy Spirit is her pilot. The Bible is both her chart and compass, and we believe this is enough to guide her safely to God.
Rev. Brother Williams filled the pulpit both morning and evening. At 14:00 'clock his subject was the words of Jesus, St. John 4:26. "Jesus said unto her, I that speak unto the am he." And at the evening hour his subject was taken from the 15 Chap. of St. Luke and the 18th verse. "I will arise and go to my father," and these sermons and especially this one is helpful. This boy was one of the family who had gone astray like the wayward Christian or the back-slder, and returned home again. These services were well attended. We had some 6 or 8 visitors at the services.

SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH
The church passed through a season of refreshing revival services conducted by Dr. W. F. Botts of Omaha, Nebraska. All persons who were received for baptism were baptized by the pastor last Sunday. The church has purchased lots on the Southeast corner of Twenty-fourth street and Grisham Avenue for its building site. Plans will be made as early as possible for the new edifice.
Dr. Boone of Texas delivered the sermon last Sunday night. The Teachers Training Class conducted by Dr. Montgomery at the church was a great success. It was attended by teachers from many of the city Sunday schools. Certificates will be awarded to those completing the first courses Sunday afterwards at 11:30 a.m.

IN THE REALM OF POLITICS
JUSTICE HOWARD
With the assistance of many friends, who declare that his good record of two terms as a Justice of the Peace entitles him to re-election to this office for Los Angeles Township, which includes all of the corporate city, Justice Howard B. Hinshaw is making an active campaign which observers declare is certain to be successful. Many neighborhood meetings in behalf of his re-election are being held.
Justice Hinshaw has opened campaign headquarters in Room 421 Hollingsworth Building, Sixth and Hill Streets. Attorney Edmond B. Hinshaw, his father, who is a former Congressman from Nebraska, is in charge. The telephone number is Main 3524. Presiding in turn with other justices over the traffic court, Justice Hinshaw has given careful study to the many intricate problems which this court presents.
"It has been my observation on the bench, in hearing testimony in traffic cases, that the speed trap is unfair when placed on open and unobstructed roads. Such traps at crossings and mountain curves are the only practicable method, but straight stretches should not be used for fattening a batting average," said Justice Hinshaw. He further contends that "The system of granting operator's licenses is too lax. A motorist should be required to pass an examination on the main features of the law. They constantly plead ignorance even as to knowledge of the speed permitted in the open, on crossings, on mountain curves and to parking. Certainly lack of knowledge of the law tends to increase accidents. The walking public and the motorists are entitled to a fair deal and there are many weak points in our Motor Vehicle Act which should be remedied to make for safety of both classes. I have a number of amendments in mind which I will call to the attention of the next legislature."
14 Amendment Number 19 is against every interest of the working people. Vote NO on Amendment Number 19 November 7.

FRANCIS D. ADAMS, candidate for Justice of the Peace for Los Angeles City (Police Judge), is meeting with phenomenal success in the campaign for his election on November 7th. For the last two weeks Mr. Adams has been the guest of Improvement Associations in all parts of the City, and is nightly addressing large audiences.
Although Mr. Adams is a candidate for the position of Justice of the Peace, he has not commercialized his opportunities at these meetings, but has used for his subject the upbuilding of the community Improve-Clubs; his aim and object being a closer unity and understanding amongst the people.
Mr. Adams has always been an ardent supporter of the Firemen and Policemen Pension Fund, and District Representation and many of his talks have been along these lines.
We believe that a candidate who will devote his time to the working out of these problems instead of taking up the space allowed him in speaking for his own personal campaign, shows that he has the interest of the City at heart, and we feel assured that when elected he will be the right man in the right place.
Mr. Adams has a strong campaign committee of men and women who are ardently supporting him, and meetings are held nightly by them in different parts of the city for the furtherance of his election.
We have no hesitancy in saying that we support Mr. Adams, and hope that all our many subscribers will do likewise, for we believe that "A new broom sweeps clean."
"THE LORD HATES A PROUD LOOK." PROV. 6:17.
By Henry C. Lewis.
I have often thought about a proud look. And I have also desired to learn, how many kinds of looks, men and women practice which come under the head of a proud look.
From ordinary observation I have reached the following conclusion; that there are several kinds of proud looks which we often practice.
We will first consider the unnatural proud look. Observing that God made human beings and covered their frames with flesh and skin. They were naturally made bodies and faces, and when these faces were looked upon just natural, uncamouflaged faces were seen. But men and women through a proud-spirit began to raise themselves out of this God given naturalness which was common to all. They desired to be different so they commenced the use of powder, paint and rouge, in other words to comouflage their naturalness; and thus, was begun the practice of at least one of the many kinds of proud-looks, common among human beings nowadays. By these coats of powder, paint and rouge the individual makes a proud-look, and some are proud because they are proud, of their proud looks.
I have seen men who endeavored to make themselves handsome. They shaved their eyebrows, trained down their side-burns, cropped their mustache up to a small bunch of hair under the nose. To use the common term of today they presented the aspect of "he-vamps."
Those were unusual acts for men to have done. They were also unnatural acts; they therefore come under the head of proud look.
Probably the most pronounced proud look practiced among the children of men is facial sarcasm. We have all observed it in others. We have also felt the touch of its awful sting and we have done some stinging too.
Oh! how you could have cut him to the ground. If it were possible, with those red-streaked eyes, when he said, "you are wrong, about it."
She gave her such a mean proud look. If the strength of its intended violence were concentrated it would be sufficient to blow off its Hades.
Fireman and Policeman Risk their lives for you. Vote TNK for them.
That is why a Complete Funeral for $75. Other funerals in proportion. The Best without extravagence.

WEST SIDE WELFARE ASSOCIATION ENJOINS PROPOSED BLUE BIRD LAUNDRY FROM USING NOXIOUS CHEMICALS
Before Judge Crail in the matter of enjoining the erection and operation of the proposed Blue Bird Laundry at 35th Street and Western Avenue on last Thursday, the Association gained a notable victory when Judge Crail granted an injunction against the same to the extent that no chloride of Lime or other noxious chemicals could be used in the operation of a laundry at that location.
This is a signal victory for the people as no laundry can be operated without the use of these chemicals. The gase will come before Judge McLucas on Dec. 11th for a permanent injunction.
The people of the West Side were represented by Attorney H. C. Mcbeth, president of th Association and Attorney Donavan.
KANSAS REPUBLICAN CONVENTION ENDORSES DYER ANTILYNCHING BILL—12th SUCH ENDORSEMENT, BESIDES 3 FROM DEMOCRATS.
The twelfth Republican State Convention has put into its platform a plank endorsing the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, according to announcement today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York. This latest endorsement comes from Kansas and is due to the efforts of Jas H. Guy, a member of the Executive Committee of the Topoka Branch, N.A.A.C.P.
The states in which Republican Conventions have endorsed the Dyer Bill are: Colorado, Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia, New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, California, Delaware, Missouri and Kansas. I inthree of these states,—New Jersey, New York and Massachusetts—Democratic Conventions have also endorsed the Dyer Bill.
The text of the Kansas State Republican plank on the Dyer Bill is as follows:
"We commend the Kansas delegation in the national congress for undivided and untiring efforts in support of the Dyer Anti-Yynching Bill and recommend a continuation of their efforts for its enactment into law."
JAMES WELDON JOHNSON WILL TOUR SEVEN CITIES FIGHTING FOR THE DYER BILL.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today announced a final speaking tour by its Secretary, James Weldon Johnson, early in November, before the special session of Congress at which action will be had on the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill.
Mr. Johnson will address mass meetings in seven cities, explaining the present status of the Bill and urging unremitting pressure on all Senators until victory is won. The cities in which Mr. Johnson has arranged to speak and the dates of meetings are:
Cleveland, Ohio, Sunday, Oct. 29;
Chicago, Ill., Monday, Oct. 30;
Indianapolis, Ind., Wednesday, Nov. 1;
Louisville, Ky., Friday, Nov. 3;
Pittsburg, Pa., Sunday, Nov. 5;
Philadelphia, Pa., Monday, Nov. 6;
Washington, D.C., Sunday, Nov. 19.
Washington, D.C., Sunday.
Mr. Johnson plans tobe in Washington, as the special session of Congress opens, to continue his efforts in behalf of the Dyer Bill.
In connection with plans for the speaking tour, Mr. Johnson made the following statement:
"The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People expects that the Dyer Bill will be enacted by the Senate in the special session of Congress called by President Harding. The Republicanists are pledged to pass this measure. An object lesson is being given to the Republican Party by our Branches throughout the country which are working to defeat Republican Representatives who voted against the Dyer Bill in the House and working to elect Democrats who voted for the Dyer Bill in the House. These These and other facts I shall bring personally to friends of the Dyer Bill in the six cities, before the coming elections. Then the final stage of the fight to enact the Dyer Bill will have been attained."

Pastor Ward will occupy his pulpit in the 8th and Towne Church at 11 o'clock Sunday morning and at 7:30 p.m. Special music by the Choir under direction of Organist Elmer C. Bartlett will be a feature of both services.
The services were at high tide last Sunday with good singing and a stirring sermon by the pastor on "The Automobile Religion" at 11 a. m. and at 7:30 p. m. Prof. Bartlett, our organist and choir master, gave a thrilling recital of his three months' trip through the far South and East.
Seven men and women united with the church in response to appeal made by Rev. Ward. The Choir, under direction of Prof. Bartlett, sang as if by inspiration. Prior to the close of the morning service Mme. Florence Cole Talbert thrilled the great audience with a solo from the Psalms; which was well rendered and pronounced a masterpiece. Many prominent out of town visitors were in attendance. A splendid audience greeted Prof. Bartlett in the evening and his address was pronounced par excellent. Among the many things, he told how he put over the big 500 voice Concert at Atlanta, Ga. for the benefit of Morris Brown University. He also told how thoroughly he enjoyed his entire trip, and he thanked the pastor and church for his vacation. Concluding he thanked Mrs. Fred M.

FIRST A. M. S. ZION CHURCH
Rev. W. E. Shaw, Pastor
Corner Pico and Paloma Streets.
The first quarterly meeting for
the new conference year was marked
with much success spiritually and
financially. Presiding Elder E. M.
Clark preached to a fine audience
on last Sunday morning. One addition
to God's marching army was
made.
The pastor. Rev. W. E. Shaw,
allied the rostrum Sunday evening
using as his subject—"The Sin Against
The Holy Ghost" or the "Un-
pardonable Sin." Showing how
eager people are to get a clear under-
standing of the divine truth, a large and appreciative audience
was present to hear this great sermon. The text was found in Matt.
12:31.
After Christ had healed all man-
ner of disease, and cast out devils
the Pharisees claimed it was
through Beelzebu, the prince of
devils. Their moral conscience was
dead.
Whenever we put out the moral eye when wrong no longer seemeth wrong, but seemeth right, we have sealed our doom already, for there is no pardon for the homicide of the moral conscience. God cannot pardon and save us if we do not wish it.
On next Sunday morning Rev. Shaw will speak and in the afternoon at 3:00 o'clock he will speak to the Y. W. H. and F. M. S. Everybody interested in missionary work should not fail to hear Rev. Shaw. He spent 5 years in Africa as a Missionary Worker and Organizer. Missionary Workers are, especially Rev. Anderson of the C. Church will deliver the even message. It will be one of his small messages as he leaves soon Oklahoma, his new field of labor. Mission Class 6:00 p. m. Varick C. Society 7:00 p. m. Sundays. School 9:30 a. m.

THE PASTOR
PAPER
SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH
740 Maple Avenue
All services Sunday were enjoyed by all present. The Sunday School was as usual up to the standard. All officers and teachers filling their places.
Morning services began at the usual hour. Our pulpit being graced with the presence of Rev. E. W. Moore of Pittsburgh, Pa., who delivered to us a wonderful sermon on sacrifice. Text: Romans 12:1—I beech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
He explained the sacrifices of all ages were in order up until Christ came when he offered up himself as a sacrifice for sinful men.
The cattle on a thousand hills are sacrificed that we might live.
The lives of the soldiers on the French soil at Flanders field were offered a living sacrifice.
So many wonderful examples were brought to us showing us that we should make daily sacrifices unto our Heavenly Father.
Jesus said take up my cross and follow me.
Sunday evening was a Good Citizenship meeting. Speakers for the evening were Rev. Miller, Mr. Scott, Assemblyman Roberts and Mr. J. H. Bate. Each speaker's discourse was very interesting and I am sure all present were benefitted.
Reuglar services every Sunday. A cordial welcome extended to all.

WHO IS "BOSS" OF YOUR DOLLARS?
WHO IS "BOSS" OF YOUR DOLLARS?
A good many men let the other fellow spend the money they earn—the other fellow just has to suggest something to sell them and—the money is GONE.
Some men are strong enough to control their own money. Every time they get money, they put some of it in a Savings Account—first—BEFORE the fellow who wants to sell you something gets a chance.
It takes a MAN, and a SAVINGS ACCOUNT, in a GOOD BANK, and a STRONG WILL to build up a fund of money in bank which you can use for things that are really worth while.

Our minister preached two eloquent and inspiring sermons. Subject at 11 a. m. "True Religion." Text. John 4:23-24—But the hour cometh, and now is when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a spirit and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. He declared that true religion has the strictest adherence to the truth, and is manifested in a happy countenance and a beautiful life. The Choir sang with new inspiration. The presence of the many visiting friends was gratifying.

Dear Sister Richardson.
We the members of the Social Hour
Club, of Birch St. Christian Church,
do hereby tender to you our heart-
felt sympathy and sincere condolence
in this your sad hour of trouble and
bereavement.
The passing of your dear and devoted
husband from your home, and
from our midst, is that which we feel,
oh so keenly; but we are comforted
in the fact that he was prepared, and
met his death calmly and triumphantly.
He went not like the quary slave
at night scourged to his dungeon,
but sustained and soothed by an un-
faltering trust approached the grave
like one who wraps the drapery of
his couch about him and lies down to
pleasant dreams.

"There's nothing terrible in death
'Tis but to cast our robes away.
And Sleep all night without a breath
To break repose till dawn of day."
We therefore, in the language of
Paul, commend you to God and to
the word of His grace, which is able
to build you up, and to give you an
inheritance, among all who are

Sunday was well observed at Mt. Olive Baptist Church, our pastor, Rev. H. B. Thomas taking for his text "Competency in well doing," Gal. 6:9 for the morning service which was well attended. The Junior Choir furnished well rendered songs in praise to God, while "Preparation of a Soldier" furnished the evening text. Song service by the Senior Choir. Both sermons were full of spiritual life and inspiring; the congregation was benefited and felt the presence of the Lord in their midst.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
A few young ladies whose highest ideals are to become flappers and vamps, did not grasp the opportunities the generous tax paying public occered them while attending Intermediate School. Altho they received a little more than a grammar school education, they failed to learn these things, self respect and to have feeling for those who are unfortunate enough to be ill. Those who wish bad luck on other people, it generally falls upon themselves or other members of their family. Now young ladies let this little advice sink into your brains if you possibly possess them, and be careful what you say next time.
Pierson Producing Company the Producerts of "CHUCKLES" are certainly a bunch of live wires from the producers down to the least person in the cast. Show a spirit of Go-Get-iviness, a quality that gets results. They work together like a well oiled machine hitting on all six cylinders. Such an organization is an asset to any community. Their Slogan is "3000" to see "CHUCKLES" at Philharmonic next Monday nite Oct 30th and the writer believes that they will do it.

Fern Caldwell leading lady of "CHUCKLES" the Pierson's Producing Company's Production, which will be played at PHILHARMONIC AUD., MONDAY EVE., OCT. 30TH—Declares that the life of an Actress is not without its Dark Moments.
She catalogues the darkest moments of her career as follws:
When she had to double in the last production as a Chorus girl and Leading Lady—
When she spoiled her evening dress in trying to make the change—
When she missed her car and was late for rehearsal—
When she learnt that her leading man would rather do a Ted Shaw dance than waltz—
When she had to vamp the Villian (T. A. Perkins) who had been eating onions and had oil on his hair— When she had to meet the Director to consult about her new play and discovered she had to do the Secretary work— But it will all work out O. K. in "CHUCKLES."

MOVING ON.
The installation of the latest model Linotype machine—Model 14—in this establishment for the purpose of better serving our ever growing family of readers is but in keeping with the spirit of real progress and a duty we owe to the people who have given to this journal an unselfish support. We recognize in the same as wholly impersonal but at the same time a stamp of approval on our efforts for a practical demonstration to DO SOMETHING worth while. For the past decade we have discarded our policy of standing still and put on the habiliments of warfare for real progress and forming a lasting partnership with the people and establishing for them a Forum. With this line up we have steadily moved up all along the line, at these portals the humblest of the humble have always had an opportunity to state his case and the
Coaling Eagle — despite the efforts of a pernicious group otherwise has weathered all storms and stands out in bold relief as a shining example of a real honest effort for service to a people which need men and women who can put over a program of real progress. True sometimes we must fight to save ourselves but never to harm or to pull down some other than ourselves. The only fights we make are against crooks and crookedness and we shall eternally and forever be found fighting along this line. Otherwise the old bird stretches forth its wings, it has brought down on Central Ave. the hum of the Linotype machines, the motors which run the machinery of a newspaper. It is training along business lines men and women, it is disseminating knowledge all along the various lines of effort with an unbeatable corps of writers and scholars who are contributors to its columns, it is gaining a world-wide reputation and has created within itself a real honest ambition and inspiration to keep on flying and gain such heights as it is possible to gain by a real honest and clean effort. In other words we are MOVING ON.
VOTE YES ON AMENDMENT NO.16.
We cannot too strongly commend to the consideration of Eagle readers Amentment No. 16 which appears on the ballot Nov. 7th as an initiative measure. This amendment is one which should appeal to all who stand for fair play and a square deal and is known as the Chiropractic measure and will give to the people absolute freedom in choice of the kind of treatment they may choose for the ailments of their bodies should they be so unfortunate as to possess the same. The enactment of this Amendment into law does not revolutionize anything by the way of treatment of disease, it only gives the people an opportunity to choose for themselves the Chiropractic practitioner if it is their will. It will create without a cent of cost to the taxpayers a Board of Chiropractic practitioners who will pass upon the qualification of all the Chiropractic graduates to work at their profession and this practise will be limited to ply its profession, absolutely without the use of any sort of medicine whatever, this being so, we cannot by any stretch of the imagination see why

there should be any serious objection to the enactment into law of Amendment No. 16. We therefore have no hesitancy in supporting this measure and ask for the fullest consideration and support of this measure.
WHY A NEGRO NEWSPAPER.
If I had to answer the question: "Why a Negro Newspaper?" I think that my answer would be in the form of this question: "Why a Negro?" In other words, as long as the Negro forms a distinct group in the body politic in any community there is every reason why there should be an official organ through which that body, of pure Americans, may present itself to view to the rest of the world's various groups about it. Every other group of humanity, and the whole country is made up of groups, has such an organ and feels proud of it to the extent that it finds a treasured place by the fireside of every home, many times, at a great sacrifice. The value of such a newspaper to real personal worth in any community is not found in its size but its principles and its standard, it portrays the people for whom it is published. The world judges men by the standards he sets for himself, let them be high or low, and the community press can best bespeak that position more so than through any other source.—The Enterprise.
One thing that we learned about the business of publishing a newspaper is the fact that if we start at the bottom and climb we shall not have, if drop we must, so far to fall.
STILE ON BOARD THE SHIP.
We elect at this time to be regular in our devotion to the regular Republican organization and give our support to that ticket and we take it that all who read will realize just what we mean by the above statement.
We appreciate the stand of Mr. Woolwine on the Ku Klux question, but where Mr. Richardson comes out just as strong there is no reason why we should desert the party of which we are a member to vote for one who is an avowed Democrat.
We must not swerve from our devotion and unless better reasons than any that we have heard are given we shall remain steadfast and true for the election of the Republican ticket as nominated at the Republican primaries on August 29th.
This column reflects our stand upon political issues, however, we conduct a real newspaper and if knowing as you must our stand, all person who may so desire, still have an opportunity to be heard by purchasing such space as they may see fit in which to state their case.
Officers White, McClannahan and Holiday are rendering yoeman service and hewing to the line. They are making good in their effort to make the Eastside a fit place to live.
THE INTERNATIONAL WEL FARE LEAGUE.
It is reassuring to note the fact of such an organization as above and its activities for production in a big way. Tremendous indeed is the good already accomplished in the linking of two nations in a real and tangible effort to promote production by the Negro race joining in the propaganda by Latin America, the greater success which comes to this organization the greater will be the effort of those who have no intentions of seeking other climes. We are firm in the belief that the future salvation of the race is in the successful imamagement of such movements
as advocated by the International Community Welfare League, which will put the race in a position to become real factors among all other peoples of the world, we are more convinced of this fact when we, after a careful perusal of the part which the race plays in production, note how far we are behind all the rest in producing from the soil of the earth.
The U. S. census says that in the Pacific States, California, Oregon and Washington, there are only 259 owners of farms out of which there are 183 in California, 11 in Oregon and 65 in Washington. In the same States there are 110 tenants, 94 in California, 2 in Oregon and 14 in Washington. In the same territory 42,739 acres are owned by Negroes; 33,799 of them are in California, 2,125 in Oregon and 6,815 in Washington all to a value of $4,283,-406 in value. This gives an insight to the part which the race is playing in the game of production. It is not sufficient and we must organize and get together to the utmost that this condition must not be.
By George H. Duncan
An address that contained much interest was delivered at the First Congregational Church, 9th and Hope street, last Wednesday evening by Rev. George F. Kenngott Ph. D., Superintendent Southern California Congregational Conference.
It is of great value to every person in the United States to know of the progress made by the Negro race during the brief period of freedom. The astonishing facts prove the racial progress. Rev. Kenngott said:
There is no better time than now to consider the progress made by the Negro race in fifty four years. These are actual facts and cannot be doubted by anyone.
On September 22, 1862, President Lincoln issued his Emancipation Proclamation wherein he announced that on and after January 1, 1863, all persons held as slaves were to become free. After four years of dreadful fighting the Negro now was free, and received all the right and responsibilities of citizenship.
The Negroes were thrown out into the world, uneducated and inexperienced to meet life's problems. The progress since that time is things that makes history, bearing in mind that the progress and accomplishments of this race, have taken place in the last half of a century.
To give every one an idea of their progress, Mr. Kenngott submits the following figures:
Homes owned in 1866, 1200; 1920,
600,000. Farmes operated 1866,
20,000; 1922, 1,000,000. Students
in Public Schools 1866, 100,000;
1920, 1,800,000. Churches owned
1866, 700; 1920, 43,000. Church
membership 1866, 600,000; 1920,
4,800,000. Wealth accumulated
1866, 20,000,000; 1921 $1,000,000.
Value of church property 1866, $1,
500,000; 1920, $5,900,000.
I have obtained also a list of facts
to add to Rev. Kenngott's great list
of achievements made by the Negro
since slavery.
In North Carolina colored people
owned 1,674,823 acres of land and
$37,851,973 worth of real estate.
In 1900 colored people were
interested in 51 banks and insurance
companies.
We have noted preachers, inventors,
teachers, sculptors, actors,
artists, singers and musicians.
The Negroes in the wars of the United States have always shown themselves loyal and ready to fight.
themselves loyal and ready to fight.
Crispus Attucks, a colored man,
was the first to fall in the Boston
Massacre.
Peter Salem fired the shot, that
killed Major Pitcain.
Samuel Lawrence led a company of
colored soldiers at Bunker Hill.
Over 3,000 Negroes served in the
Revolutionary War.
In the present World War thousands of Negroes again went over
the top for freedom.
Over 33 colored men have received Carnegie Medals, three graduated from West Point and we have the lowest percentage of crime of
any foreign race that comes to this country.
What the Negro needs is education and an equal opportunity. With education and if opportunity is given him what will he do in the next fifty years.

Griffith of the Second Baptist Church, we wish to extend our thanks and to express our appreciation of the words of consolation and deeds of kindness.

THAT CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENTS INSURE
Mr. Richardson Speakr
Woolwine Is Target of Blistering Statement.
Candidate Denounced as Political Opportunist and Masquerader in Progressive Garb.
Containing a remarkable denunciation of Thomas Lee Woolwine, Democratic nominee for Governor, the following report signed by the president and members of the executive committee of the Young Men's Republican League of Los Angeles county, an organization of 6000 Republican and the largest and most active political body in Southern California, was made public yesterday.
The members of the Young Men's Republican League of Los Angeles real issues in this gubernatorial campaign and his fear of meeting them.
"An attempt is being made in this State to break down the strength and purpose and ideals of the Republican party in California. The attempt does not come from within the Republican party, but envisages from a democratic politician seeking to masquerade as a Progressive Republican. This politician opportunist, whose means are purely secreted, is the Democrat's nominee for this Governor—the Republican's true impudent and de-watching effort. Mr. Woolwine, whose�ecme whisover to a public vote. His attempt has been party-wide. He has as a mere gratitude to his support as a true
When asked regarding his position on the Kia Klux Klan, Mr. Richardson said:
I was raised a Quaker. My father was a member of the Society of Friends and that is why I have the name Friend. The Quakers are free from race prejudice and religious hatred. I was raised to look with a kindly and liberal spirit upon others regardless of religious convictions. I believe in supporting the Constitution and the laws. I do not believe that any man or set of men have the right to take enforcement of the law into their own hands. Law should be
enforced by the regularly constituted courts and officers. If elected Governor I will do everything in my power to suppress lawlessness of every kind and character. I point to my record in office as proof that I have treated men nad women on their merits and have not taken into consideration their religious views or their race.
"Now that ought to dispose of that matter, including freedom of speech, freedom of religious views, freedom of the press, and any other organization or individual, secret or otherwise. Lets get back to the real and only issue in this campaign—economy and efficiency in State Government."
do not enable Congress or the several States to defeat or thwart prohibition, but only to enforce it by appropriate means.
"A Governor of California, by his official acts or other wise, can have no part in providing or refusing to provide light wines and beer. Mr. Woolwine's espousal of this issue, therefore, is not in behalf of those who may honestly desire a return of light wines and beer, but is conclusive in demonstrating his political pracy.
"NIGHTSHIRT DEFIANCE"
"His present campaign of theatrical attacks upon the Ku Klux Klan, a nightshirt organization whose activities are not taken seriously, show him in an even more ignoble light than his wasted efforts in other directions. This fearless defiance of the sheeted order does not compare favorably with his incompetent, indifferent and apathetic supervision of the prosecution of the alleged members of the Klan on trial in a recent case in his jurisdiction.
"Mr. Woolwine, even if unfitted for the office, cannot be censured for seeking election as Governor of California as a Democrat. It is only when he devotes his energies to promulgating false and vicious and purile doctrines to attain that high office that he becomes a menace to good government and a dangerous demagogue.
OFFICIAL RECORD
"Mr. Woolwine has never successfully refuted and has never permitted an investigation of official charges of the utmost seriousness concerning his administration of the office of District Attorney of Los Angeles County.
"These charges involve specific instances of gross inefficiency, detailed accounts of fragrant extravagance and of a deplorable waste of public funds.
"If one-half of the charges as officially made are true, or if the conditions as officially set forth in the records of the county grand jury on file in the office of the County Civil Service Commission and the office of the County Auditor even approximate the situation obtaining in his office. Mr. Woolwine not only would endanger the prosperity and progress and welfare of California if elected Governor, but is now holding a lesser office which he is not administering in the interests of the people.
"And, while Mr. Woolwine, with dramatic fervor and self-lawalion, pursues his selfish political ambition in this State, unfortunates, charged with crime lie in jail, awailing his pleasure, and praying for his early return to his official duties in the hope that their trials may be held and their guilt or innocence established."
"Under the regime of Thomas Lee Wooline as District Attorney men have lain in jail until their cases have been forgotten by the District Attorney and they have been lost in prison because of his indifference, men have been arrested and thrown into prison and held there for months and then turned loose, guilty or innocent, because of his efficiency and callous attitude toward their rights.
"These have been the poor and the ignorant, not the wealthy, who can employ expensive counsel, nor those whose crimes attracted the public attention and could, therefore, by exploitation, satisfy his craving for the limelight.
"The candidacy of Mr. Woolwine, aside from political consideration, deserves the condemnation of every member of the Young Men's Republican League of Los Angeles county of every loyal Republican of California, and no less of every good citizen who has at heart the welfare of this great State.
"Friend W. Richardson is the nominee of the Republican party. He typifies all of those attributes and high principles for which the Republican party stands. He will be our next Governor. Let us give him the greatest majority in the history of this Republican State of California."

PARIS PAPER COUNTER, BRITISH PROPOSALS.
Jarin, Nov.—(Crusader Service.) Countering the British proposals for the freedom of the Straits and the Dar article today suggest that the freedom of the Suez Canal and the Straits of Gibraltar, both dominated by England, might not be a bad thing, and advocates that France should demand for these highly strategic points the same sort of "international control" that the British are demanding for the Straits and the Durkheim. It is not likely that the British will be receptive to the idea, but it is amusing to say the tables turned on her so neatly and her own arguments used against her with such terrible effect.
Mrs. H. A. Perkins and Mrs. Coffee entertained at her beautiful home a few of her friends in honor of her son Thoreau Perkins a recent arrival from the East. Banding and cog plumber was the main attractions. Detritummen were served at the time of the affair. These penned 1903; Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Durkheim
Those who have given the Negro any time for study in the United States say, that first of all he is highly artistic.
Perhaps for the first time in Los Angeles where quite so many members of a company of entertainers appeared at one time was this quality of the Western Negro so clearly demonstrated.
"Chuckles" is a clean cut comedy, but in some instances is true to life; not however in a sense that means ridicule, but if taken seriously would cause the group to turn the searchlight of investigation on some of our business transactions.
However, turning from this more serious side of our much loved "Chuckles," and discussing its merits as compared with some billboarded as high class comedy productions—we say without fear of contradiction that it is one of the best we have been privileged to see in Los Angeles.
Thirty-five daily costumed characters composing the Pierson's Producing Company was an eye-opener to black as well as white Los Angeles last Monday night for it was not generally known that there were quite so many in our midst who could for the very first time appear on a stage such as Philharmonic has with such ease and grace and to the rythmic strains of such music as that produced by Johnne Anderson and his orchestra.
William Pierson, the author as Henry-Damon, and Richard Courtney as Alexander-Pythias, representing the Bo Bo Mining Co., were reproductions of his early days of Williams & Walker on the legitimate stage each a scream in his own role, so vividly did they portray the activities of the Bo Bo Mining Co., that one went away feeling that there really was a company of such name and character.
The other characters who made "Chuckles" chuck were Malcolm Patton whose stage manners, and voice are always superb: Catherine Reese; Fern Caldwell; T. A. Perkins; Geo. Bronson; Lottie Bolds; James Moore; Janet Cooper; Lela Boyd; Alvena and Fern Caldwell; Chine Adams; La Neff Flerson; Bessie Ricketts; Joy Morris; Gene Rusing; Eula Douglas; Victoria Town; Pete Preston; Alice Walker; Epae Lee; Helen Boyd; Charlotte Sange; Leila Johnson; Eula Douglas; Milton Douglas; Herman Higgs, each of whom was a star in his or her role.
Some of the character who stood out in their rolls were Fern Caldwell, who is in the Mary Pickford class as to child-like daintiness; Lottie Bolds who is action from start to finish. A Perkfins whose sole as the high class gentleman of the occasion was well taken and La Nell Pierson whose crisp interpretation of the 20th century 16-year older, was perfect: Mr. Biotson, Mr. Bolds.
If the Negroes who have investments in the several banking concerns in this city could awake to a sense of their duty a worth while playhouse would be erected in Los Angeles where Willie Pierson's fertile brain would have full play in the development of the talent he could gather together in any town milest, and this would not be a Jim Crow concern for whites we always anxiosa to appreciate Negro ability along this line for they realize that it is natural, and true to life.
"has never paid any dividends and that what property it has in its name is all mortgaged, said property being that at 56 West 135th Street. The present indebtedness of the line was "approximately" $200,000," he said, and THERE WERE NO ASSETS. Questioned as to whether here were any other judgments outstanding against the Black Star Line, and to name them; Gaurey answered that "there are so many I cannot name them. There are judgments from the crew, aggregating about $40,000. That is, I am giving you what I can remember. We have several wage cases aggregating about $20,000. Also the Green River Distilling Company libel for $52,000." He told the court that the line had about $500 in the bank, but that this had been attached by one of his creditors.
Thus endeth the bubble of the "Black Star Line," and the marvelous things that Marcus Carvey, self-appointed Negro Moses, was going to do for the race if only they would "buy shares in the Black Star Line and support the Universal Negro Improvement Association."
In the meantime, the Federal case against Carvey, growing out of the exposure by the "Crusader Magazine" that his company had been advertising and selling passage on a "ghost steamship," the "Phyllis Wheatley," and the subsequent charges by Federal agents that he used the mails to misrepresent and defraud, is scheduled to come to trial November 6, 1922.
GARVEY'S "DAILY NEGRO TIMES"
QUITS
Race's Prince Blunderer Discredited by Yet Another Failure
New York, Nov.—(Crusader Service.)
The "Negro Daily Times," with which "Marcus Carvey had hoped to combat the rising tide of public resentment against him for his alleged deal with the Ku Klux Klan, and which was launched with a flourish of trumpets and a hot-air blast against his "enemies," has failed to make its appearance for the past week.
Announcement was made at the offices of the Universal Negro Improvement Association 56 West 135 Street, that
About three years ago the little Negro Republic on the West coast of Africa, asked the government of the United States for a loan of five million dollars. The president of the Republic, which by the way, means the "Country of the free," and his envoys left the dignity of their offices in Monrovia, and came in hand to the portals of Uncle Sams domain, bowed and scraped; salaamed and kowtowed, and other undignified things only to be turned down, humiliated, and made the butt of ridicule.
They tiel so many riders to its tail that the body could not be recognized. What does it mean when the government of the United States, to whom five million dollars is a mere bargatelle, cavils over the loan? It means that the whole government is not worth the loan, or if it is that the loan will be so directed that the Liberian government will have small chance to maintain it. The commission appointed by the government will see to and dictate the expenditures. If the Liberian government develops anything of material value, oil, mineral or agricultural, they will never be able to unburden that five million debt, and will have paid the penalty as have Hawaii, Cuba, Phillipines and Haifa.
If the Libertarian government wishes really to become a representative Negro government and show to civilization Negro capability to govern, we would advise that the leading officials to the Republic work out some other means of financing the development problems and profit by past history.
ARE WE SLOW TO RECOGNIZE TALENT
We remember when Paul Lawrence Dunbar traudged from house to house peddling the product of his brain. Now, indeed, there were who would pay heed to the importances of the Poet to purchase the gems woven from his brain. But one morning there was an awakening, a white man had discovered that there was merit to those Lyrics of The Lowly and forth with we began to fall over one and other to purchase and read his book. We acclaimed him as fit representative of what the Race could accomplish, when, if Paul had not been discovered by James Herne, he would have gone to his grave. Unhonored and Unsung.
But for the discovery of Frederick Douglass by Wendell Philips and the anti-slavery agitators, he would have remained an exhorter in a Methodist church, and his matchless oratory been lost to the world. Until the efforts of Booker Washington were recognized by the white people his work was the signal for derision among the Negroes. We have at the present musicians whose talents await development. Writers who show signs of great things to come. Artists whose canvasses picture the capabilities hidden, and all of those will become great only through proper encouragement. Let us not wait until some other people discover their genius and herald it to the world before we are awakened, but let us discover and then claim priority.
Encourage our talent; Herald it to the world, and then when they have achieved greatness they will not be ashamed of the people with which they are identified, and charge them with lack of appreciation.

they true to their ideals? "We are going to ask, Do we? If we will give an unbiased look of introspection: it will be seen that we fall far below the estimation that we give ourselves. We preach religious ideals: Ideals which we have copied from the spurious Christianity espoused by hypocrites, and fail to live up to the teachings of Him who advocated the "brotherhood of man!" "We have sacrificed our ideals to custom, and we are willing that the ideal may wither, pine and die, if its life depends on our tears and our energy to coerce and hallow it.
Would that we were as true to our religious ideal as the Moslem. We may term it Pharisiacle if we will, but the fact remains, that the Christian religion, as exemplified by those who boast of its influence on the progress, of civilization, is woefully lacking.
POLITICS
A few more days and the agony will be over; that is for some, because after that the anxiety of the "Pie Hunters" will develop.
There has been no new developments, or issues in the past week.
Senator, Hifram Johnson, whose election is conceded, is making a plea party. There is one very ingenuent for the entire ticket of the Republican plea being made by Richardson's adherents, and that is, that Johnson being presidential timber, it would reflect adversity on his chances for nomination whee he to carry the State by an overwhelming majority, and the candidate for governor be left at the post.
In a "nut shell" it would be too bad to have the State make a repetition of 1916. We don't hear Friend Richardson boosting up the Senator and we doubt if there would be any tears if it were possible to defeat the droughty fighter from Green street. Senator Sam Shortridge, the sterling Republican, and the man most spoken of for national honors at the seat of government, is giving his eloquence to the cause of the party. Woolwine is making a whirlwind finish to his campaign, and also making thousands of converts to his cause.
Up in Oregon they are also having a fight with the "Pillowcase" gang. That little bundle of racial activity. Mrs. E. D. Cannaday, Attorney at law, is as usual out in the fore-ranks of the fight. If Ben Olcott is elected Governor of Oregon he will have to give credit to the fighting little woman who has brought her legal training and splendid personality to bear in his behalf.
The three K's. are having a little trouble of their own. Up in the Capital, Sacramento, a few of them are in the toils of the law, accused of embezzlement. Oh well, you know the old adage, "when thethes fall out, "etc. The closeness as well as the intensity of the campaign is brought to mind when one returns home after coming in contact with a few of the office hunting species. Your fingers ache, and shoulders burn from the hearty greetings one receives. The one consolation is, that after the 7th of November you can meet the same fellows on the same side of the street and whether they are defeated or elected you will be safe from their greetings; all that you will receive will be a stoney stare. SELAH.
On last Wednesday before Justice Newal of Pasadena the case of Dr. Anna Mills of that city came up for trial and at its conclusion Mrs. Mills was sentenced to pay a fine of $5.500 or to spend 10 days in jail. She decided to spend the time in jail and would not accept the order even of friends to pay the fine, therefore on last Wednesday at 1:00 p.m. she became a guest at the hotel Tracer of Los Angeles County at which time she gave to us a history of the code and in our next lecture it will appear in full and her requests for preferring to spend 10 days in jail when she could walk but at any time by paying the fee which she or her friends could be taxed. Mrs. Mills is a highly educated cultural and reheated woman. A brother of no mean ability and a strong believer and advocate for the full rights of mankind.
The cause of her trouble arose over an argument with Mr. Madison, President of the Central Bank on broadway and Colorado street in San Francisco, Mrs. Mills says that the best greedless, because indulgence with the 40d him that in this time the black people would rule the world and he had her arrested for distracting the peace.
We do really feel alarmed if we allowed that a person of the morality of Mrs. Mills must be to be for exhorting an optimistic and selfless away from her children and friends his nephew or what he about his small asking and woman appearance for bringing about such a piece of truth.
Allegedly Mr. Madison returned in the City last weekend from San Francisco. Yesterday he had been taken into custody.
