THE ge Walto nition of Americanism. Is Judge Walton J. Wood a Judge Gives New Definition of Americanism. ASSEEMBLYMANROBERTS THANKS PUBLIC No words of thanks could fully express my deep appreciation of the splendid loyalty to principle and wonderful support given me as the nominee for assembly by the people of the 74th District at the November 7 election. The choice of the people was unmistakably shown by the overwhelming vote given the victor. It was then a distinct victory for the people themselves, who refused to be either fooled or intimidated. I want to thank the ministers and the churches. The Forum and many other civic organizations, the Roberts company committee of citizens. Its vigilant management and ability, the many general campaign workers who voluntarily worked for my election, the women's clubs, the men and women of the homes and all the citizens of every walk of life who combined their votes to gain such a sweeping victory. To all who aided in any way, I am grateful. And now, for the third time re-elected Assemblyman of the 74th District, I pledge anew my best efforts as the representative of all the people of that district for the highest welfare of the people and the state. FREDERICK M. ROBERTS. Assemblyman 74th District. Y. Andrew Roberson Dies of Pneumonia Y. ANDREW ROBERSON PROMIS ING YOUNG AUTHOR SUCCUMBS TO PNEUMONIA Y. Andrew Robertson though only twenty-five years of age, had succeeded in making a place for the work of his pen in some publications of national repute, namely the Literary Digest and Leslie's Weekly. Ambitious, energetic, a hard worker toward the goal of a great writer, he was, in the midst of all this, called to account Tuesday morning, at 10 o'clock. After a struggle of about a month, double pneumonia claimed him as victim. Mr. Robertson was the author of "Last Night," an article; "A Color Line within a Color Line," for Leslie's Weekly, which created quite a sensation, also a novel serial "Ashes," which appeared in the New Age Dispatch. Arrangement for funeral cannot be made as the grandfather, near at relative alive, has not yet arrived in the city. IN MEMORIAM To Y. Andrew Robertson. By Wendell P. Gladden, Jr. Let me sing unto the hills. My sorrow-song: Let me utter my prayer unto the hills. That they may join me In mourning. An oak tree Young and growing in strength. Covered the winds and rain and storms And stood unshaken. But came the day when the force Of driving rain, and sweeping wind Left the young oak uprooted. And it died. A youth, stalwart Illustrious, growing in strength Of knowledge. Faced the world And stood upright, with high ideals Unshattered. But suddenly, Life was Unkind. And the race, and the world, felt The loss. Let me sing unto the hills The aged, holy hills Let me utter my prayer unto the hills That it may resound Unto the very throne. Of God. SOUTHERN SECTION OF STATE FEDERATION OF COLORED WO- MAN'S CLUBS, HOLD FIRST RE- CIPROBITY MEETING OF THE YEAR, AT SOJOURNER TRUTH HOME. The meeting, which was largely attended, was presided over by Third Vice President, Mrs. C. B. Hicks The minutes of the morning board were adopted. Very glowing reports from 16 clubs represented by 28 delegates made the discussion very interesting, after which the chairman of the reciprosty, Mrs. Ada Jackson presented the following program: Piano Solo—Miss B. Chamberlain. Vocal Solo—Miss E. Miles. Mrs. L. Slaughter and Mrg. S. Cole made a partial report from the National Federation of Colored Womans Clubs, which was both instructive and interesting. PHONE 150-44 Volume Thirty-Six BY: C. A. SPEAR Mrs. Anna Williams who for fifteen years has been identified with the work of "The Women's Christian Temperance Union" of this city, and an all around social worker, has always demonstrated a true Christian spirit of Americanism; for she has never limited her activities to say race, color or creed, but has always heard and responded to the human cry for help. She has worked in the schools, hospitals, and jail—especially directing her attention on girls, those who have fallen by the wayside; those misled, and even those who have wafed fat on the wealth of their forefathers, but have fallen victims of the vice system of this age. So broad is the vision of this woman, and so unselfish her motives that she had never stopped to think of the color of her skin or race affiliation until last Wednesday when she appeared in a "Civil Rights case in the court over which she Walton Wood resides." It seems that Sunday morning, March 10th Mrs. Williams in Company with Meadames T. A. Gill, Kate Creeves (both white), all W. T. C. P. workers, after a busy morning's work in the City Jail, appeared in Boos Bros. Cafeteria, located at 128 South Broadway for lunch. After they had helped their trays and were about to eat, the manager of old cafe appeared on the scene, lighted Mrs. Williams by the shoulder and announced that she could not eat in there. So insistent was he that the ladies left the cafe, Mrs. Williams perceptibly humiliated and her white friends likewise humiliated out of sympathy because of the harsh treatment accorded their friend, and co-worker. When the case was called last Wednesday the management of Boos Bros. denied the fact that they practiced race discrimination against colored people, and at this point Judge Wood literally took the case out of the hands of the defending attuney, and turning to the witness then on the ladies, the answer being that Mrs. Williams, she answered, if she was not aware of the fact that colored people were not wanted in white cafes and didn't she think the proper procedure for her was to have gone to a colored cafe in the first place. And to this Mrs. Williams answered that she was not thinking of the color of the cafe or its management, she wanted food because she was hungry after putting a breakfastless morning in the City Jail, and the pearness was the only and sole reason why Boos was selected. The judge then wanted to know of her in what other white Cafes she had eaten; where upon Atty. McDowell, who was representing Mrs. Williams, objected. The judge reddening in the face announced to Atty. McDowell that he had had his say, and now he (the judge was going to have his. It is asserted by those present that this was the rawest deal ever given an attorney and his client according to their observation. This attitude on the part of Judge Walton Wood is a revelation at least to the colored people of this community, and they are wondering as to his definition of Americanism. It is further understood that Judge Wood argued that whenever a colored person entered a white cafe it meant loss of dollars for the proprietor. In this position our learned Judge is certainly out of harmony with the better class of his own people who realize that within the sixty years allotted him for self-improvement, the Negro has surpassed the most sanguine expectations of his friends left over from abolition days. We have only praise and commendation for Atty. McDowell who never lost his head under the shower of Ku Klux propganda poured upon him and his friends Wednesday by Judge Walton J. Wood. The Negro has demonstrated most God-like patience in the face of cruel oppression. He has preserved the honor of America from 1737 to Nov. 11, 1918. He has never assassinated a president nor betrayed his country in times of war, but has always been a loyal citizen. Now, he is human, and has human rights that must be respected, and when such men in high places with responsible positions as that of Judge Wood forget the ideal of justice for all men alike according to the constitution of these United States, he himself is suggesting a new standard of Americanism that is not well founded and cannot last. Mr. and Mrs. S. T. Anderson had as their guest on Wednesday evening, the Rev. J. C. Anderson and family; Mr. and Mrs. Edward Battish. A delicious dinner of tomato bullion, baked chicken, mashed potatoes, green peas, hot biscuits asparagus salad, pineapple ice.cream was served by Miss M. Watson. The guests departed happily and declared Mrs. Anderson was an elegant hostess. FREDERICK M. ROBERTS, Assembly 7416 District IN MEMORIAM A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL MEN'S DAY AT INDEPENDENT CHURCH PROVES BIG SUCCESS. THEY PUT OVER STELLAR PRO- GRAM. The ruling spirit at the great In dependent church is a diversified pro program all branching out from the spiritual welfare and making this church feel like you are at home. Therefore the great effort put forth by the men of that Church to outdo the woman was a magnificent success. The activities of the day were not by any means confined to the membership of the Independent Church but was participated in by members from all the various churches. On last Sunday there was naught for a woman to do at this church, but to come out look and listen. The men had the day and by that we mean all day, morning, afternoon and evening. Of course the climax came at the evening when the men brought forth such heavy artillery that the women fell into fear and trepidation—they were smothered; they were routed. However, they say that they have received reinforcements and on next Sunday (which is their day) with banners flying they will demonstrate that woman is not only "God's masterpiece" but his dependence to make the old world move along. SUNDAY EVENING Rev. N. P. Griggs in elequent terms introduced P. E. Alexander as master of ceremonies and he in return acted the part to the glory and satisfaction of the men. In singing the men's chorus was a feature for the opening of the exercises of the evening. Charles C. Boston, phenomenal tenor singer pleased the crowd immensely and was called for an encore. Dr. Wilbur C. Gordon's talk on health was a feature. A Murdock's paper "Man, God's Masterpiece" was a gem and he received great applause for his efforts. The violin solo by Mr. Forsythe was most highly appreciated. The Musical Quintette was a decided hit. C. C. Flint spoke on business as it was getting late and the people became nervous, his splendid talk on business was curtailed. Pimnun Hall in Gospel singing was pinnable the feature of the program and things were moving to a high pitch as he sang as never before all for the men. Lewis K. Beeks, recent graduate from Howard, and one of our home boys was at a distinct disadvantage, owing to the lateness of the hour, but his paper was timely and most refreshing at even this late hour. The meeting closed in a glamor of glory for the men and how it is possible for the women to get anywhere will be worth seeing them try all day at the Independent Church on tomorrow. REST The funeral services of Rev. J. W. Braxton were conducted by Rev. Milton Ward from 8th and Towne Ave. Church, Tuesday at 1:30. Rev. Ward was assisted by Chaplain Priolean who read the obituary and Rev. Guy, Presiding Elder Washington and Rev. Dr. J. C. Owens of the Kassas Conference, who had responded to the notice of the death, to fulfill a solemn agreement entered into by the deceased and several young ministers as they entered their ministerial career over fifty years ago. Each speaker paid a high tribute to the moral worth and Christian integrity of the deceased. Rev. Braxton has stood as a stalwart Christian and moral character throughout the middle West for more than fifty years. Not only is his demise mourned by his faithful wife and immediate relatives, but by all whose good fortune it was to come in close contact with him. Rex. Braxton was also a faithful fraternal character having been an honored member of Braxton Masonic Lodge, Hannibal, Mo., where he was born about 75 years ago. The floral emblems were profuse and the large circle of friends who assembled on this occasion to pay the last tribute of respect to this worthy character realized that a giant oak had fallen. The interment was at Rosedale Cemetery under the auspices of the Masons. COMMUNITY WEL- FRATS MEET FARE LEAGUE INST. LOIS, MO. THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITI. WELFARE LEAGUE, LOS ANGELES LOCAL NO. 1. The first public meeting of the International Community Welfare League was held Tuesday evening in the Assembly room of Smith and William's establishment, 1311 Central Avenue. Under the able leadership of Attorney E. C. Jennings, President and L. H. Bryant, Secretary, Junius Brown, Vice President, the local promises to put over the greatest program ever attempted by Negroes in the United States. It was pointed out by Attorney Hugh E. Macbeth in an address before the local, that the great West and Southwest was the future hope of the American Negro. He proved by listing Mr. Arthur Silberz stand and explain the meeting how the Negroes of Alabama were planning to come to the great Southwest. Mr. A. Manuel brought greetings from Oklahoma. The program of the League briefly outlined by Attorney Jennings proposes to send Rev. H. B. Gantt, the great evangelist on a tour of the United States, carrying to the people an invitation from Los Angeles to come West. To show the progress that is being made by Negroes on the Pacific Coast a magazine will be published, "The International Guide," containing articles from every city in California and ads from all the business organizations. The Committee appointed to circulate this Guide every three months to all parts of the country is composed of such able men as Messrs. Hawkins books. Rev. H. B. Gantt, H. E. Jacobeth Shearin, the next public meeting will be held at the Tahoe Bible Baptist church 12th and Memphis streets on Tuesday evening December 5th at 8:00 o'clock. All persons interested in the uplift of the great masses of Negroes of all sections are urged to be present. PIONEER PASSES Mr. Washington Taylor who died November 11th at his home in this city was one of Los Angeles' early pioneers and one of its most reputable citizens. Mr. Taylor has lived in Los Angeles upward of forty years and has been identified with several movements in the community that stood for race development—was one of the builders, and first deacons of the Second Baptist Church, having served under Rev. C. H. Anderson until the New Hope Baptist Church was organized, he then helped to build it, and there served as an honored deacon until death claimed him a few days ago. Mr. Taylor was also one of the founders of the Eagle, and for a goodly number of years one of its stock holders and supporters; has worked for the city for thirty-five years, and was one of the oldest members of the S. M. T. and U. B. F. organization. He has made his home on the Furlong Tract for 16 years and for six successive terms was honored president of Mr. Furlong Tract Improvement Association. Mr. Taylor was not only a progressive citizen, but one of the most exemplary Christian characters of this Community, and his passing, even though he had lived long and well regretted by his many friends and admirers. The funeral service was held Wednesday at the New Hope Baptist Church, Smith & Williams Undertakers in charge; and the many resolutions attested the high esteem in which he was held. He leaves to mourn his loss a devoted wife, and other relatives. ALPHA PHI ALPHA PIONEERS TO GATHER FOR CONVENTION AT ST. LOUIS, MO. SESSIONS OF 15TH ANNUAL TO BE DECEMBER 27-31, 1922.

Railroad Rates to Convention Applied For. The National Secretary of the Fraternity has this year as in former years made application to the railroads of the country for a reduced rate to the members of the Alpha Phi Alpha who are at attend the St. Louis Convention. It is expected that rates will again be granted and announcement of the terms made at an early date. BOOK CHAT MARY WHITE OVINGTON, Chairman Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "Nigger." By Clement Wood. Published by E. P. Epson and Company New York. Price $2.00. Postage 10 cent extra. The theme of this new novel by Clement Wood is that the Negro is not permitted by the white man of Alabama, where the story is laid, to raise above the status of the title of the novel. Emancipation, the hope of the older generation, has not brought liberty to the younger generation. The old grandmother, before she dies, assures her husband that the emancipation of which he fondly dreamed is only to be found in Heaven. "You been lookin' for 'mancipation in de life wut is; but bis here 'mancipation ain' gwine till de life to come." And judging from the fate of the colored people in the book she is exactly right. Out of a family of all, all, the mother of all, all, and win happiness. The soldier dying in France, his other soldier killed in America, his neer-do-well, the daughter nearly white who for a time goes "over the line" to return home with her baby, the tired drudges, these are her children. To all has come little but suffering. Naturally hers is the cry of the slave, that liberty can only come in another world. The uicture of the white men and women, in Mr. Wood's novel makes one understand the fate of the colored. No abolitionist ever painted the white southerner so cruelly as this son of Alabama. His whites are not only cruel to Blacks. In his first novel "Mountain," he describes the fa- EAGLE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE VICE CRUSADE THE CAMPAIGN AFTER.

From New York to the Pacific coast they have said in Bo Bainton terms that his emigration Bainham was well taken, his affronts during the past two years have been not ted with care. The in' are out and the 'outs' are in again. Negroes have told Harding them selver where to get off. From New York to the Pacific coast they have said in BC uncertain terms that his motion at Burningham was well taken, his affronts during the past two years have been not ed with care. In New York they helped elect a Democratic Governor and a Democratic United States Senator. In New Jersey they downed Frelinghuysen in favor of the Democratic Edwards. In the president's own state they gave him a smashing blow. At Chicag, for the first time, Negroes went Democratic. In California Hiram Johnson is a Progressive. In Harlem, New York City, Negroes let Ansorge out and chose the Democratic Weller for Congress. And Ansorge and Dyer were pain! Also they let down Richard M. Bolden, Republican Negro candidate for the New York legislature, and chose James Make, white Democrat. Then they whirled and beat George W. Palmer, white Republican, and elected Counselor Henri W. Shields, Negro Democrat, to the Legislature instead. (When Negroes do over, he tear up jack!) But the most surprising and encouraging feature of the elections in New York is the fact that A. Philip Randolph, coeditor of the Messenger and candidate for Secretary of State on the Socialist and Farmer Labor tickets, polled more than 10,000 votes in New York City alone, and ran second on the entire State Socialist ticket. Charles P. Steinmetz was first, and this was doubtless due to his popularity as an "electrical wizard." Randolph even ran ahead in New York City of the Socialist candidate for Governor, leading him by approximately 25,000 votes. It is certain Randolph got an overwhelming majority of the Negro vote throughout the State. Even where Negroes voted solidly for the Democrats or Republicans on every other count, they invariably cast their vote for Randolph for Secretary of State. And news comes from Rochester that the Negroes there lined up solidly for Randolph, where they went almost equally as solidly for the Democrats on other counts. Negro Republican leaders are sick. In Harlem there are three Negro newspapers, actively supporting the Republican cause, and not one an on temocratic advocate. And still these are the ones who almost approach decryed Negro majority. The election has much significance. Negroes are splitting their votes. They are no longer the pawns of the Republicans. And once the splitting is begun there will be no end. It will make Negroes judge their candidates by their platforms. It will make them vote intelligently. And when they be represented generously in the mass, both Republicans and Democrats had better look out. ther of the hero, a rich manufacturer, as cruelly heating his little son every morning, day after day, because he has committed a single act of indolence. It seems as though this author meant that we should get out of our minds the picture of the kindly slaveholder, so popular with the earl er southern writers, and remember the overseer who fulfilled the law of the slaveholder and day after day beat the defenseless people within his power. The whites in Stribling's "Birthright" were cruel, but they had a touch of go donature. They did their cheating with a laugh. There is no laugh in "Nigger." From the time Jake and his family appear upon the scene until the last page when the old man shivers tortured by his memories, there is tragedy. "Futility," that might be the title of the story. It is futile for a Negro to be educated, it is futile for him to fight for his country, it is futile to attempt to be white. It is even futile to give up the struggle and be a "no account nigger," for to the neer-do-well Tom, the most allie of the figures, comes only sorrow. Don't expect to be anything but a "nigger," at least in Alabama. That is the gist of the story. It is evident that the author be Klux? The Soaring Eagle editorially last week called attention to vice conditions and urged that a campaign be inaugurated to rid the town of vagrants, petty and major criminals, prostitution lottery sharkets. Even before the article spoken of and made its appearance it seems that certain changes for certain reasons had been ordered by the vice and which at that time was headed by Officer Frank, White and Officer P. Williams placed in his stead, that there was a reason for this goes without saying, for J. S. Ealey told a reporter for this paper that he had decided on a change and that change which he stated came to pass. At the time Mr. Ealey stated this, we were to recognize him as one of the oral forces of the city jokingly told in some of the things which had appeared to others in his station in J. S. Ealey for himself, to the he said he was on his way and on results he knew just what he was talking about. With the advent of another head of the Squad things can to happen, just as Ealey said, now, ob yes now, we bow in humble recognition of Mr. Ealey's power by a real practical demonstration he has convinced us. For right after he said it, down comes the Leutenant with his Squad also the hostess sage and some 440 persons more or less were in relays handed up to the police station charged with frequenting a lottery joint. The place visited was the Royal Star Athletic club, at 10th and Central Avenue. TALK AT THE BIG GATE There is much comment over the happenings, and the "Soaring Eagle" has been known to stand for law and order all along the line without prejudice or malice toward any, but solely for public will; but there are those who question Mr. Earley's sincerity, especially from the fact that he has never been active in any sort of reform movements which stand for the uprift. There are some who say that he was given a purse by some of the cool room proprietors to bring about the downfall of the Royal Star Athletic Club, and others called the Eagle man and said he hired up some of the breachers at so much per to use them to get the cars of the Mayor's office. If course all of this is big gate talk, and we are simply giving it for what it is worth. Personally we say not, it things surely did happen and all free that Eagle is in on the happenings and we are watching the turn of It's so that we can keep Eagle and its fully advised.

Several salesmen ported that Harlem was the most rule field for the corporation's ock. Many Negroes thought that be- cause the company was under white agreement, that it could not fall, and the would rake in huge divi- nals on short order. But it is get- ting to be the general opinion among colored people that when a prominent business suddenly comes to colored people with luring promises of divi- dals on stocks, that the business is bout to crash and this is a last re- port to save itself. Heves this will not be changed unless we have amalgamation. "As long as either race had as its ambition to re- member itself, you must be colored. For equality meant sameness, oneness." So his light colored grid thinks, and, seeing only sorrow ahead, is tempted to kill her light colored child. Clement Wood has written a great tragedy; and it seems only just that in Birmingham, the city of Octavins, Roy Choen's ridiculous NNegro sketches, we should have this dark picture. That it is unduly dark every Negro will feel. But it is a swiftly moving picture of suffering, the pain of a moving picture fifauses across the screen. Sometimes it is pathetic, sometimes gigantic. No one can follow it in its swift motion and be unmoved.

The two Congressmen are: Dr. Caleb R. Layton, Republican Representative at large from the State of Delaware, and R. Wayne Parker, Republican Representative from the 9th New Jersey District. Delaware colored voters roused by the uniting and courageous work of Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson who put the facts before them; organized meetings, conferred with newspapers editors, and was instrumental in bringing the N. A. A. C. P. speakers into the campaign against Dr. Layton. Against both Dr. Layton and Mr. Parker, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People conducted a persistent and insistent campaign. The Secretary of the Association, James Weldon Johnson and the Assistant Secretary, Walter F. White, both went to Wilmington where they spoke before mass meetings organized by the local N. A. A. C. P., in conjunction with the Anti-Lynching Crusaders and the Independent Citizens'. League. N. A. A. C. P. press releases were sent to white and colored newspapers throughout New Jersey, informing their readers that Representative Parker had voted against the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill in the House of Representatives and urging that he be rebuked in the election. N. A. A. C. P. Branches in Parker's district were also urged t odo all in their power to defeat him. The entire Republican ticket was elected in Delaware with the exception of Representative Layton, who voted against the Dyer Bill, and Senator, Du Pont, whose defeat is partly due to his having persisted despite warnings from colored leaders in try-to force Layton upon voters, who would not have him. According to figures from the official 1922 registration, the Republican had a margin of 7000. There were, however, 12,000 registered colored voters in Delaware an d these proved decisive. James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., issued the following brief statement in comment upon these results: Colored voters had an issue in this election and they made the most of it. That issue was the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill and on the strength of it they retired two men who voted against it and who might, but for colored votes, have been returned to Congress. That is a convincing demonstration of power. This should be borne in mind in watching the Senate's action in reference to the Dyer Bill. The Republican margin has been reduced. But the Republicans can still enact the Dyer Bill if they want to. They and they alone are to be held directly responsible for the fate of the Dyer Bill by colored voters." SPIRITUAL MUSES EMINENT NEGRO MUSICIAN ASSAILS MISUSE OF SPIRITUALS IN DANCE TUNES. H. T. BURLEIGH URGES CO-OPERATION OF RACE IN PRESERVING MUSICAL TREASURE. H. T. Burleigh, the eminent Negro musician and composer has written a letter to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in which he urges the co-operation of colored and white people in preserving from debasement in jazz the musical treasur of the Negro Spirituals. Mr. Burleigh's letter, as made public by the Advancement Association today at 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, says in part: The growing tendency of some of our musicians to utilize the melodies of our Spirituals for fox trots, dance JUST OPENED! NEW .DRY .GOODS .STORE Everything in Dry Goods, Notions, Gent's Furnishings. Shoes for the whole Family at great Savings-Give me a trial. MISUSE OF PHONE 205-30 numbers and semi-sentimental songs is, I feel, a serious monache to the artistic standing and development of the race. These melodies are our prized possession. They were created for a definite purpose and are designed to demonstrate and perpetuate the deepest aesthetic endowment of the race. They are the only legacy of slavery days that we can be proud of;—our one, priceless contribution to the vast musical product of the United States. In them we have a mine of musical wealth that is overlasting. Into their making was poured the aspiration of a race in bondage, whose religion—intensely felt—was their whole hope and comfort, and the only vehicle through which their inner spirits poured free. "They rank with th egre attalk music of the world and are among the loveliest of chanted prayers." ?Now, since this body of folk-song expresses the soul of a race, it is a holy thing. To use it and not artificialize or cheapen it calls for reverence and true devotion to its spiritual musicians contemptuously disregard these traditions for personal, commercial gain. There use of the melodies debasses the pure meaning of the tunes, converting and perverting them into tawdry dance measures or mandlin popular songs. Their work is meretricious, sacrilegious and wantonly destructive. It offends the aesthetic feelings of all rue musicians—white and black—and because some of us have endeavored never to sink the high standard of our art nor commercialize the sacred heritage of our people's song, but rather to revere and exalt it as a vital proof of the Negro's spiritual ascendency over oppression and humiliation, we feel, deeply, that the wilful persistent, superficial distortion of our folk-songs is shockingly reprehensible. Skilled musicians can detect instantly the flagrant misappropriation, the amateurish perversion. There are others, the unskilled musicians and particularly our young people who cannot detect the misuse of these prayer-songs; wh ocannot distinguish the false from the true, the makeshift from the real, the spurious from the genuine, the theatric from the spiritual and who are thus being fed with a wrong idea, a false valuation of all our beautiful melodic inheritance—unless this pernicious musical FOR THE BEST THERE IS NO OR PASTRY—C CHICAGO JOHN LETG HOT ROLLS AT NOON—H 1115 CENTRAL Phone 293-788 VERNON PARK FOR NERVOUS, CONVALE BATHS - MASSAGE - 4861 COMPTON AVE.

They seem incapable of comprehending the enormity of the offense and the far-reaching effect upon future generations. True, these melodies are public property and there is no real means of protecting them except through race pride. Have these men sufficient race pride to forego the cheap success and the easy money?

Can we not convince them that it is all in bad taste; that it is like polluting a great, free fountain of pure melody? In th hinterests of millions of colored people who love and revere the Spirituals and who believe these old melodies can be an essential factor in the cultural evolution of the race as well as a powerful stimulus to its higher artistic development, and, in the interest of millions of white people who love and revere the Spirituals and who believe that the "Negro stands at the gates of human culture with hands laden full with musical gifts," I earnestly solicit your help and cooperation in a determined effort to persuade our misguided friends to cease their desecrating work and to join with us in honoring, and protecting from any secular or degenerate use the Negro Spirituals—the only songs in America that conform to the scientific definition of folk-songs.

CHRISTIAN CHURCH Eighth and Wall Streets. Rev. M. Frederick Mitchell, Pastor Last Sunday was one of our banner days. The pastor, having prepared a chart sermon, upon the general divisions of the Bible. The canvas upon which the sermon was outlined, was put in a conspicuous place, where the audience could see it. The discourse called into action the five senses. Each one could see with his eyes, as well as, hear with his ears, and execute the function of his spiritual nostrils and tast and sense of feeling. The chart consisted of a unique picture, "Paradise Lost," and the means that God used to help man regain "Lost Paradise." Also a picture of all the books of the Bible, giving their nature and the periods under which they belong. Next Sunday the pastor will give another phase of the chart. Last Sunday evening instead of holding our regular services at 8th and Wall Streets, on invitation we held a service for the langlewood Christian Church, (white). The Choir Chorus under the leadership of Madam Viola Harris Brandon, rendered an appreciative musical program. The musical program commenced at 6:45 p. m. and lasted for and hour. The success of the Choir's effort was shown by the outbursts and prolonged applause the audience greeted each number. After the musical program, the pastor, Dr. Bagby, in choice words introduced our pastor, Rev. Mitchell, as the speaker of the evening. The Reverend on rising from his seat announced his text and subject, "Then Peter said, silver and gold have I none, but such as I have give I thee; in the name of Jesus Christ, rise up and walk." Subject "Power in the name of Jesus." The speaker took told of his discovery as he went advancing through the divisions of his own sins. At the close in the church young men.

Cothran, Minister Great was the day for those who attended this church last Lord's day. Spiritual feasting to the full. The gospel able was richly supplied. Our minister occupied the pulpit morning and evening, with soul stiring messages. At 11.00 o'clock a.m. he used for his text "And it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that when he shall appear, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is." 1 John 3:2. From this text he showed that regeneration is the imperative requisite to the enjoyment of this happy distinction in the great future.

The campaign inaugerated by the judges to improve con- ditions particularly .as to vio- lations of the traffic laws is both timely nad in the interest of public welfare. It has be- come so that even the average driver of an automobile is a speed demon and with a reck- less disregard for the law, glides through the-streets and on the thoroughfares at a ter- rific_ speed which too often caus®s the maiming or death of some innocent pedestrian or oc- cupant of other cars, The people therefore wie square. ly behind the officers and judges in their effort to curtail this evil. I} is high time that the reckless drivers, of automo- biles shalt realize that if they will speed and must speed that they do so at their own peril. IN APPRECIATION. It,is refreshing to know that out here in the land of sunshine and flowers that the people of the -white race appreciate a ‘real man to the extent that in San Diego County they will perpetuate his memory by the placing of a tablet of bronze on the mountain grade of Pal- amor. The same is in memory of Nate Turner who died Oct. 10, 1920 at the age of 101 years. A pioneer he was and ‘a man of honor and integrity, known for his astuteness and hospitality and the unselfish other intrepid discoverers when service to all who came his way.

Moore from Arkansas, an _offi- cial lecturer of the Ku Klux Klan. He delivered a childish and illogical tirade against the Catholics, Jews, Foreigners and Negroes. He said that God_Al- mighty had designed this coun- try for ‘white protestant © su- premacy and that-it was use- less for the Negro to attempt to climb for God Almighty had especilaly ordained hi mfor a subservient position. He main- tained in this situation that the Klan was the Negroes’ best friend-and that they were de- termined to protect him from the rich white man, the de- graded white man and the’ I. Ww. W.

In fact, the Author freely has have given "wild license" to his own individuality in his flights of "apic imagery." However, it is historically true that, the African king Pemmoy, in the year 1887, was bequeiled in his capital of Oppoba by a pick regiment of British Infantry. After a seige which lasted for several months, Pemmey defeated them and almost completely annihilated the entire treatment. Realizing that she could not hope to conquer King Premprey and his re-doubtable warriors with her white troops, Queen Victoria of England, raying upon the courage and misguided "patriotism" of her black soldiers in the Caribean, did not hesitate to call to the aid of the British Crown, the intrepid and indomitable black heroes of The Crimes, Mansanti, etc., the Second West Indian Regiment. These stormed Oppoba, the Capital of Coosmassile, captured king Prempey, and delivered him to the English who took him to England where he soon died of a broken heart in exile. In the recitation by king Prempey in the "CONQUEST OF COMASSIE, of the achievements of the indomitable black men who founded magnificent empires, built gorgeous temples, fashioned civil laws and religious creeds, and inaugurated an era of stupendous maritime commerce which extended, from the northernmost shores of the Mediterranean, along the old and picturesque coasts of the country of the Sabeans, of Serica, Lyca, Hevila and Oman, even to the formy hitherland of Ind, such authentic historians as the French Count Volney in his work entitled "The Laws of Empires," Diodorus, Lucian, Bruce, Strabo, the plates of Norden, Pocock, et. al., will amply justify the Author in his reference to the past achievements of black men. ALDEBARAN: Wake! for the lust of nations how Have writ the doom upon their brow! Mercy, and Truth forsook the land And Greed at Justice's Altar stand. Strike! for your pressaged day has Strike, Tis the crumbling Nation's Boom! Rest not content beneath their feet Feeding on crumbleb of stark deceit! Wake! Mighty men of Aethiapha's line Nor grovel in the mire like swine. For, hell no loathsome soul contains More base than slave who hugs his chains! Once more, on Midian's sacred sod Shall men invoke the Living God! Once more the earth shall hear your tread By Glorious Kings and Captains led! And when the new-born crescent moon Spreads o'er the fields her silvery shoon The Muezkin's call shall girt the land. Then Muezkin's sons, a numerous band Shall worship as they did of yore By Sabe's sacred sunlit shore A PICTURE OF ETHIOPIA RE- DEEMED Jumbals, king of Ka-Kongo was in league with Prempery, King of Coomagie The front of Batanga was the scene of native activities in preparation for the war. and yakobas' forest was where Jumba bala likked his panther. From savage war's accursed decree our righteous nation shall be free Pearl's rebellion rests on band Shell, build a, belfry through the Shall build a highway through the lad. A. weeled land of joyous ways Like Golden Age of Ancient Days. For on the palm of God's right hand Their graven names Eternal stand. They shall not sow while other's reap Nor toilling, build where other's keep. Nor shall they need the sun's bright ray To ope the Radient Gates of Day. For Golden domes, and jewelled spire Shall light the land with living fire. DISOBEDIENCE AND FALL But they forsock the ways of God, And on the toe of Justice trod. The poor and week they did oppress And gloried in unrighteousness Then, Brother's blood to brothers cried And lo! no answering voice replied. For, clothed in jewelled raiment fine, Puffed up with Power and drunk with wine. They, built their towers up on high Hiptwrburt intent to climb the sky And league with Powers of the air To storm the Courts of Heaven fair. See now! where Karnac's glory shone The vultures nest in crumbling stone. Where Aethiopa's pillars stood The baleful cura spawns his brow! Hush, Midian, Thebes, but a name, And moulding tombs obscures their fame. EXCERPTS FROM "THE CONQUEST OF COOMASSIE." It was not the Russ of the dread Crimea. It was not the Dane from the frozen sea. Not the dark-haired Frank, nor arrogant Boer That beheaded the mane of the Lion 'c'er. That ruffled his pride and brought hi into bay And challenged his right to the king's highway. From Africa's untattled jungle-far Came the bold defy of Coomassie's Chief (If it had been, then England's 'pride' would not have been 'ruffled', and so this epic would not have been written.) The proud dragoon in his harness bright bright That sparkled gay like stars at night. The kilted wight, and the khakied knave. Who boasted that they would whip the slave When monsters roamed the wild plains o'er Whose murderous fangs were red with gore with glove, And heaves arch with winged array Made day's sun like closing day. Wresting from Nature's grudging hard Secrets to dread, they flee the day And chill the heart with dire dismay And taught their lore, engraved on stones To Aethiopis Proud and Princely Sons. (The weird creepiness of this description, can very well enable us to believe that this must have been "Far back in ages long gone by.") They yoked proud Nilus to the sod, Dug channels deep to snare the god Who ope'd his bounty-laden hand Oer Shara's parched and desert sand, Made conquered earth bring forth her yields From verdant meads and dewy fields, While flocks and herds roamed on the plains And fattened on the rip'ning grains. (This happy metaphor well describes the industry, prudence and diligence with which these 'Infidels' and Heathen' labored to build their vast Empires.) The labored Earth gave up her gold. Her choicest gems to worth untold. Deep in the sod they sunk the stile And reared the granit, pile on pile. Wrought cunningly the fir and ash Twint cedar's beam and ivory's sash. Then reared to heaven from out the sod The temple of the living God. And roofted with span of jewelled sheen. The house of Aethiopia's Queen. The due of aetophaeum And the exaltation of this industry, and diligence, was dedicated to the enhancement of living, and to the greater Glory of God. Proud Memnon tamed the wayward tide That flowed down Nubia's mountain side. Built monuments on Shara's sands That tel show Aethiop's war-like bands Conquered Assyria's savage brood Which crossed the Red Sea's boiling good mood. Or drove the Hyskos kings in chains Back o'er the Babylonian plains, To teach the might of Aethiop's Lands To Chaldee's roving desert-bands. The kings and warriors of Aethiopia maintained right well, the splendour and the prestige of their brilliant Empire.) From Oman's caves to mystic Ind Where typhoons raged and tempests dinned. They sought the runes of Ancient Budd That calms the wind, or tames the flood. They braved the crested storm-tossed foam, Seeking an incense-laden dome To pilfer perfumed ointments rare, To deck a luctious damsel's hair, Or, dark-skinned maidens to array In shimmering silks from proud Cathay. (And gloried in the voluptuous and dreamy-eyed maidens, who were the favored receipients of the rare and exotic spoils of their dangerous quest.) Dark, beautiful maidens glad the eye, Whose matchless charms and witching sigh Effulgent as a summer's morn A prince's mansion may adorn, May soothe a peasant's longing soul Or grace a monarch's throne of gold. CONVENTION FLASHES By: DR. L. G. JORDAN Even going in debt for the purchase of *home* is not bad; get a home at any cost, because renting is such poor business. Tell our people to train their children to go to and from school like children, and not like courting characters. Whether it be on trains, street cars or walking along the streets, teach them to be careful in their conduct. Lead talking and boisterous laughter are signs of bad breeding. Dr. L. K. Williams was President of the Texas Baptist Convention for twelve years. These years were during a stormy turbulent period in the history of Texas Baptist His, repudiated at the time of his blissful for the Presidency of the National Baptist Convention. THE GREEN SECTION The coming session of the National Baptist Convention at St. Louis in December, will be largely attended and interesting. Many questions of vital importance to our present and future workk will come up. Let us urge our people to pray earnestly for wisdom and guidance in holding this, our 43rd Annual meeting. Every man and woman among us should go to St. Louis with prayer on the lip of God's leadership. Our missionaries out on the firing lines of our gospel work are looking to us.

THANKSGIVING NOTICE ...Again I take this opportunity to make known my thanks to God and my sincere gratitude to His people of the Thames who have so nobly and clearly contributed to the benefit of myself and family. D. T. Slaughter, A Blind With the advent of the laundry 40 years ago, the gradual passing of the numerous Negro washerwoman; arriving iningham apun, delivering the daily wash. For country or mobile washing in certain sections of the country was done by colored people. The Department of labor, the Treasury, H. Brown, Commissioner of Cancellation, instituted a survey to determine what extent Negro washermen employed in the laundry industry, Washington, D. C., was selected as a typical city for the investigation, and the results indicates that 64.4 per cent of a total of 1,549 workers were with actors and sexes, engaged in the laundry business in Washington, D. C., are Negroes. This does not include Chinese and hand laundries; only those plants employing machinery. This per cent is based upon a total of 561 white and 998 colored workers. This are further divisible into 268 white males, 223 colored males, 288 white females, and 776 colored females, the colored males and females forming, respectively, 14.4 per cent and 50.0 per cent of the grand total of 1,549. An analysis, by skillful male workers, after eliminating the unskilled workers, disclosed that it takes 81 hours to conduct the plant launch of Washington, D.C., and 87 hours to perform the bulk of the skilled duties, and that of that part coloride female workers with a per cent of 42.6 which is practically equal to the entire white increment, male, and female, of 42.8 per cent, are performing virtually one-half of the entire skilled laundry wrok. Their male co-workers account for the remaining 14.6 per cent of the skilled work. Coming to the unskilled group of 490 workers, 73 white and 417 colored, it is found that the latter have a percentage of 85.1 as against 14.9 for the former; and that the latter have a percentage of 74.1 as, before performing the greater part of all duties. Colored males have an inclusion among the unskilled workers of 11.0 per cent. A further analysis was made, as far as possible, of the actual occupations of these workers, and it was found that they were principally distributed as follows: Occupations Workes Colored Assortors and Markets 248 460 Drivers 117 58 Engineers 11 5 Ironers 122 492 Office help 44 0 Shakers 10 44 Shirt and collar girls 12 57 Washers 17 108 All others 89 164 Total 551 998 Notes: 1. "Drivers" includes collectors and deliverers. 2. "Washers" includes starchers and wringers. 3. "ironers" includes machine operators and feeders. 4. "Engineers" includes firemen and mechanics. 5. "All others" includes supervisors, catchers, cleaners, general helpers, etc. From the above it is apparent that Negro workers have mastered every art and trade of the laundry industry on through its development from the machine processes, and that their female wing has advanced, along with the whites, far beyond the stages of apprenticeship. While the above figures and facts do not depict the full circumstances of 100 per cent of the laundry workers of Washington, D. C., and while they must not be understood to have any reference to the many private workers who, as of yore, are still pluring their trades with old customers who do not desire to utilize the modern and mechanical means of washing ironing; yet it is believed that the statistics submitted by the active plants which readily cooperated with the Department in this study are thoroughly typical of normal local conditions, both as to the above plants and as to the very small increment remaining untabulated. COMING NORTH We received a letter the other day from a friend connected with the Census Bureau, asking any information possible as to the increase of the Negro population on the Pacific Coast for the past year. The letter is interesting, from the fact, that it states that, on an average, one thousand Negroes are leaving the Southland every week. We have always deplored the fact that there was no organized plan to assimilate these strangers into the new environment. Coming, as they do, from sections of this country where color hate has held away, they are too apt to become intoxicated, with the "new freedom" and take liberty for license. It is not worth while to be meaty mouthed about the matter. If confront us, We see it in our daily rounds. It is noticeable on our public carriers; It can be seen in the conduct at places of public amusement: Those things should not be, and if they continue will only create a feeling skin to the touch from which they scape to fire. The prior associate of a community are responsible for the justified respect of the people of this community. With care and concern the servants who seeks asylum in the freedom of our section, can be taught that it is only by observing the common courtesies of life that this freedom can be maintained. We know that the task is a hard and ungrateful one, but the end to be gained is worth the sacrifice. THIS AND THAT Col. J. T. Robinson, Senator from Arkansas, says: "That the Japanese is the only color race of modern times to strike a blow at the supremacy of the white Race. The Senator should remember that history has a habit of repeating itself. A San Francisco Japanese was recently apprehended for burglary, and strange to relate, the robberies were confined to his own countrymen. Hitherto, the Japanese maintained a splendid attitude of cohesive helpfulness, and that was one of their main measures of success. France is seeking to restrict foreign ownership of land. Why? It is alleged that Americans have taken advantage of the exchange rate to invest in French real property, hoping for an advance in the value of the French franc. If we are not mistaken, there is a clause in the Treaty of 1853 or 4, between the United Sattes and France, allowing reciprocal rights to own real estate. In these feverish times, when divorces are as frequent as marriages, to note a couple who has walked hand in hand down the matrimonial path for a quarter of a century. The many friends of Christopher, and Mrs. Griottch gathered at their Andover St home in San Francisco, to witness them renew their vows for another Twenty-five years or, "until death do them part." Mrs. Griottch, who was Miss Nellie Bynum, proved a splendid hostess, and from two till five p.m., November 4, the many friends bearing useful and costly presents of silver, gave, tangible evidence of their love and esteem. The evening was spent in card playing and dancing with a delightful Dutch supper at the close of the affair. Miss Winona Winder rendered a few popular selections at the plano. Among those present were many social leaders: Mr. nad Mrs. Winder, Mr. and Mrs. Harrison and Mr. and Mrt. Hillz. IN THE MUSIC WORLD By John A. Gray The following clipping from the Musical Courier is not only interesting but gratifying as well. Hampton, Va., October 21.—"Folk music of the East and West met on comparable terms, through the co-operation of Max Rabinoff of New York, when the well trained Ukrainian National Chorus, dressed in gorgeous, native peasant costumes, and the Hampton Institute chorus nad choir, composed of Negro voices, recently sang in Ogden Hall, at Hampton Institute, the famous folk songs of little Russia and the Negro religious songs of some of the South for a warmly enthusiastic audience of over 200 representative white and colored citizens of the lower peninsular of Virginia. This matinee concert was given under the anspices of the Musical Art Society of Hampton Institute, of which R. Nathaniel Dett is the conductor. The Ukrainian singers were encored again and again. They were greeted with sympathy and fervor by the 850 Hampton Institute students, who sang to them and the leadership of Paige L. Lancaster, formerly a song leader and first lieutenant of "The Buffaloes," four Negro folk songs—"Ride on, Jesus," "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen," "Look away in the Heaven," and "Swing Low, Sweet Charlot." Some of the Ukrainian singers declared that in all their travels through Germany, France and Belgium, they had never heard such thrilling chorus singing as that which was furnished to them by the Hampton Institute students. They fairly danced with joy behind the curtain, after the Hampton students sang for them the primitive and developed Negro folk melodies. Alexander Koshetz, the conductor of the Ukrainians, after hearing the Hampton Institute chair of sixty voices sing "Listen to the Lambe" and "Till Never Turn Back no More," two compositions based on Negro folk motifs, written by R. Nathaniel Dett of Hampton Institute and Interpreted under his conductorship, said: "The Negro composer's work is colossal in its significance of the cultural possibilities of Negroes. On my return to Ukraine I shall put Professor Dett's compositions on my programs and have my students study and interpret Negro folk music." LIBERIA TRANSPORTATION S. S.

Father Joe, Metser, to accompany them to a lonely place, sight miles distant, where he was subjected to a several attacks. With a season for their un-American action, that Father Metser had been too pro-German during the World War. A similar fate was meted out some time ago to the Parish Priest of Slaton, Texas. N. A. A. C. P. PREVENTS EXTRA- DITION FROM CLEVELAND TO SOUTH CAROLINA The Cleveland Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has been successful in preventing extinction of a colored man to South Carolina, it was announced today. According to a letter from Harry E. Davin, Representative in the Ohio legislature, and member of the National Board of the N. A. A. C. P., the man in question, James Roberson, was arrested November 10, on a fugitive warrant from South Carolina. The defendant stated that he had lived in Simpsonville, S. C. and had there borrowed money on mules and other farm property, which was sold when he was forclosed. Simpsonville "continues the letter of Mr. Davis, "and came to Cleveland, where he has been employed for nearly two years as an iron worker at the Cleveland Hardware Company. He has a wife and four children. "Robertson, through ignorance of his rights, had signed a waiver of extradition, and the local police authorities wired the South Carolina sheriff to come and get his man. He immediately wired the Governor, demanding a hearing on extradition and followed this up by letter. "On Saturday morning, I filed a petition in habeas corpus in Common Pleas Court, but the writ was denied on technical grounds. The Court, however, at our request nullified the waiver of extradition and ordered the Chief of Police to hold hte man in custody until regular extradition papers were produced. "We then demanded a hearing on the merits of the case in the Criminal Branch of Municipal Court, and are glad to report that the Court ordered the discharge of the defendant. "What I want to emphasize is that Roberson is a member of the U. N. I. A., and immediately upon his arrest, he asked assistance from their local officials. Not one of them responded, and as far as I am able to learn, no effort was made to do anything for him." William R. Greene, President of the Cleveland Branch, N. A. A. C. P., was associate counsel with Mr. Davis in this case. N. A. A. C. P. TELEGRAPHS HARDING AKSING PROTECTION FOR NEGROES IN TEXAS. SAYS SITUATION IN BRECKENRIDGE DEMANDS DYER BILL ENACTMENT. On receipt of news from Texas that Mexicans and Negroes were being driven from their homes in Breckenridge, Texas, and that the Mexican Government had protested against the yachting of its nationals in the United States, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, immediately telegraphed President Harding renewing its demand for enactment of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill and asking federal protection of colored United States citizens in the danger zone. The telegram which was signed by James Weldon Johnson is as follows: "National Association for the Advancement of Colored People respectfully calls yours attention to International situation created by lynching of Mexicans as well as of Negroes in Texas and again urges that Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill be endorsed by Administration and enacted by Senate in order that the Federal Government may properly deal with this humiliating and dangerous situation. "In the mean time may we respectfully urge that Federal protection be extended to colored United States citizens of Breckenridge, Texas, who are being driven from their homes by threats of violence. (SIGNED) JAMES WELDON JOHNSON, "Secretary, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People." WILMINGTON DAILY NEWSPAPER GIRL DEFEAT OF LAYTON A HAWKINS WARNING TO REPUBLICANS Under the title, "Fair Warning." Every Evening, one of the leading daily newspapers of Wilmington, Delaware, in its issue of November 13, issued an editorial warning the Republican Party, because of the defeat of Deleware's Representative in Confrontation, by colored voters. The editorial was our first made by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and edited by the Wilmington Advocate that colored voters emancipated themselves in the recent election. The editorial in Every Evening says in part: "It is an undeniable fact, eloquently revealed by the figures of the election, that the Negro voters of Delaware for once demonstrated their freedom from partisan slavery. Representative in Congress, Caleb R. Layton gained the strong disapproval of Delaware Negroes by his opposition to the Anti-Lynching Bill now pending in Congress. They protested in advance against his renomination, but their protests were insolently disregarded. And at the election last Tuesday, when the purely political contest was very close, Layton went down to defeat under an adverse majority of more than 6000. Now fair warning is served on the managers of the Republican Party in Delaware, that the Negroes will no longer consent to be mere party chattels, but must be recognized in accordance with their numbers and their voting influence in the party." N. A. A. C. P. SECRETARY IN WASHINGTON FOR DYER BILL AS SENATE CONVENEES. MOORFIELD STORY SAYS "WE MUST PUSH." As the Senate convenes on November 20, in the special session of Congress calls dby President Harding, the Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, James Weldon Johnson, is in Washington to fight the final battle in behalf of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Mr. Johnson has been at the National Capital throughout the campaign in behalf of the Dyer Bill, and during debate on the floor of the House of Representatives, before its passage there, was in constant conference with Republican House leaders. He intends to remain in Washington until the bill is entirely disposed of. Mr. Johnson announced before his departure from New York for Washington, that he would keep colored people informed of the progress of the bill, and made public a letter from Moorefield Story, ex-president of the American Bar Association and now President of the N. A. A. C. P., which says in part: "I want to congratulate you on the results of the campaign. The defeat of Dr. Layton and Mr. Parker is a very important contribution to our cause, for it will show that where the colored forces are united they can defeat their enemies. "I do not know what we may expect in Washington, but we must push and with the presidential election before them, and their present low estate. I think the Republican may have a chance to win, but we allate so large a body of voters, and voters so much in earnest as the colored citizens of this country. That certainly is the idea which we must bring home." During the Senate fight on the Dyer Bill, special bulletins will be telegraphed the New York Office of the N. A. A. C. P., by Mr. Johnson and sent out as occasion warrants. KANSAS MAN MAKING GOOD FORMER KANSAS DAIRYMAN MAKING GOOD IN CALIFORNIA HAS RECORD MILCH COW. James Scott of N.

Much cooperation is being given by various individuals and organizations to make an outstanding success of the two social affairs to be held on Thanksgiving Day after the annual "Football Classic of the Year" at the Coliseum, Ninth, and Pennsylvania, for the benefit of the Department of Physical Education of the Howard University.

HOWARD WOMEN HOLD FIRST ANNUAL DINNER IN UNIVERSITY'S NEW DINING HALL Brilliant in every aspect was the assembly of 250 women, students and alumnae of Howard University, in the first annual Howard Women's Dinner, Friday evening, November 3rd, in the University's New Dining Hall. The affair was planned by Dean Lucy D. Slowe who had as her motive the unifying of the women of the various departments of the University and the coming together of the undergraduates and alumnae in a common bond of sympathy had fellowship. It was the meeting of youth and experience when the alumnae threw off their cares and problems and entered into the spirit of the occasion by giving yells and singing the college songs. The enthusiasm at the dinner was tempered by a far deeper significance than was indicated by the jollification. The affair served to help awaken a woman's consciousness which is one of the first steps toward the evolution of the "New Howard Woman." Among the speakers of the evening were Dean Slowe, Miss Dorothy Pelham, Miss Bertha McNell, and Mrs. Coralie Cook. Miss Mamie Neal, of the College Department, and Miss Lena Edwards, of the School of Medicine, represented the undergraduate life.

AN APPEAL TO THE RACE MY DEAR PEOPLE: I want you to stop a you and to your family, a ested in the invention of tor of the "Harris' Safety I want you to stop and consider what it means to you and to your family, as a race to become more interested in the invention of Mr. Morris Harris, the inventor of the "Harris' Safety-First Check." Mr. Harris' greatest desire is to have his race join in with him and share the benefit of this invention. We are appealing to our race for it's support. There never has been a time that this opportunity has come before you to make an investment in something which will solely benefit you and your family; something that you can be proud of, and to say that I hold an interest in an invention that was invented by one of my race. An invention which saves the world the loss of money in the exchanging of checks. The banking world's attention is now being aroused to the extent that the adoption of the use of he "Harris' Safety-First Check will eliminate the loss from forged, raised, and fictitious checks, and will protect the innocent party who may cash these checks. As a result, there will be no more griefs caused by checks being returned to the payee marked "Insufficient." Possibly Caesar Lacomie's message meant very little to you. But this message direct from Morris Harris, the inventor of "Harris' Safety-First Check" either means that you will remain in the old rut of drudgery with no hope of having your Air Castles materialize, or else you will make a real winning that will make you financially independent for the rest of your life, or at the least, you can expect a few slaps from fortune's capricious hand. Put yourself in line to be your own master, and live in ease and luxury the rest of your days. OFFICE:: 1419 W. JEFFERSON-WHERE THE DEMONSTRATIONS OF THIS WONDERFUL INVENTION ARE BEING MADE. ~ Sport Intelligence :- cn eh Ge F See FED MEETING POSTPONED | TO “WEDNESDAY, DEC. 6: ELECTION OF OFFICERS, ADOPTION OF CONSTITUTION TO BE SPICY. By William Melle Watson Because practically the entire lo cal tennis fraternity has been invited to the Utopian’s formal ball at Blan chard’s Monday night, Dec. 4, the ‘Western Federation of Tennis Club’s most important meeting of the year necessarily had to he postponed to Wednesday night, Dec. 6, but after a day of rest, the entire brigade is ex- “pected to stampeed the Guild Room at St. Philip's where considerabble chin music will be poured out. The Political Outlook sThe un-seating or re-seating of: the incumbent squad of officers and spot- ting new and more efficient ward heelers and politicians is expected to draw the blue fiflame of the evening &nd as an effffort will be made to put some of our very capable suffrigettes ‘on the job a sweet evening is assured. ‘Thus the following ticket is suggested for the consideration of the voters and office dodgers. President, William M. Dunn (un- opposed; Vice president, Mrs. Bessie Davis, Eddy Carlisle; Secretary, Mrs. Edward (Nelly K) Carlisle, Charles Black, Clarence Brooks; Correspond- ing Secretary, Mrs. Hazel Temple, William Tatim, Mrs. Henry Young, Robert Garrott, Charles Cameron, Wm M.

Let's all help this “sweet bunch of loveliness” win that benzine buggy or at least some of the lesser prizes, some body get it sure, why not one of ouru group? ' BASE BALL ALL STARS RUN AWAY FROM THE WHITE 80x Last Sunday Pironne’s All Stars turned the tables on Doc Anderson's White Sox and defeated the crack colored team to-the tune of 7'to 4 and 7 to 2 respectively. The score how: ever fails to indicate the fact that the game on Saturday was a good one, the Sox were simply off and by errors lost the game. On Sunday, however, the boys lost from the fact that they only secured one hit off of Piercy of the Boston Red Sox. Reinforcements on the Way. However Doc Anderson is allowing no grass to grow under his feet and has sent out the S. 0. S. The answer is that Mackey and Blackman of the ABC. errant See are on the way and with their Sddition the team will close ranks and the All Stars or any other Stars will have a real ball game with hardly a chance to win. ‘A banner crowd was ont to witness the game. Billy Donaldson and Rea- jau umpired. Billy shows up as a big leaguer and only for his color would be in the big show.

Be it known that Vernon, or Holly- wood has nothing on these bouts which are put forth here from wapk to week and the offerings at Madison Square Garden often excell anything that either of the big clubs mentioned ean produce. i ‘THE, CONTESTS [The Main Bent between: Blackie $ Rice'and Ted Frenchie at 155 pounds, If You Fail To Read-—THE~ CALIFORNIA ° EAGLE-You May Never Know It Hagspened |was a hummer, action all the jway. ‘Ted Frenchie set a terrific ‘pace and won a@ well earned decision. How- ever this Blackie Rice is a comer and his loss of a decision to the veteran Frenchie was no disgrace for he showed his gameness and his ability to take punishment and still toe the mark and give back in kind. © + The Other Bouts Eddie Horton va: ‘Eddie Huse (Qwhite) 145-pounds, put a rattling good fight and was right at his man all the time, but Huse who is a vet- eran at the game proved a tough cus- tomer and out fought the Bakersfield boy and gained.the decision. This boy Eddie ‘Morton is a promising lad and will shine in the squared arena. He does not back up an inch and al- ways trying, he was defeated only by a close margin. { Battling Steve vs: Sailor Smith, catch weights. This bout started off Ike a whirlwind. Smith led off tap- ping Steve at will, and then Steve ‘got busy and rushed Smith and scored a knock-down and was all over him for a minute. It actually looked like Smith would be beaten, but Smith re- covered and measuring his man he let go his trusty right which caught Steve on the chin and it was pay day with Smith’at the window. Young Lang (white) vs: Bud Woo- die (white) fought a terrific pace for one and three-fourth of a round when Woodie caught Lang a hard one to th ribs which sent Lang to Slumbreland. Battling Bullet vs: Young Owens, 125 -pounds, as the curtain raiser, Bullett beat’ Owens all around the ring for two rounds and in the third put on the finishing touches, a right and left to the body and head. Young Owens crumpled up and was out. ~Ring Side Chats R. W. Baker still keeps his place on the center of the East side of the ring side of the fighter he picks to win. ‘Aft Collins still referees the bouts like a master andéains the favorable comments of the fans. Billy Donaldson the Announcer with his fog horn voice excells daddy Jordan in his palmiest days. ‘The fans all welcome the announce- ment of another Langford and Burton zo. © ‘Trainer Henry Smith has a fine string of boys and if they carry out hig instructions they will bring home the bacon. We look for Blackie Rice under his tutelage to forge to the front. Sunny Jim and Sailor Cooper will shine in the main event on next Wed- nesday night. This bout in itself will draw a banner crowd. Boots Hines is like clock workks itself as he times the various bouts with eminent satisfaction. Mack House: like Alexander of old is looking for more worlds to con- quer. His manager, Henry Smith says that he is open for a contest with any middleweight in the land. SUNNY JIM OF SAN DIEGO This clever and gentlemanly boxer has earned for himself a high place i the estimation of not, only the fight fans but of all who know him and the announcement that he is going to box always brings forth a canagity, house. On next Wednesday evening al Madison Square Garden he will box four rounds against Sailor Cooper and and as Cooper comes highly recom: mended this will no doubht prove to be a stellar event, Sunny Jim has quite a record as a fighter as at tested by the following which is only a partial record of his achievements in the ring: . Beat Steve Dalton; stopped Kid Gallaway; beat Lonny Goodrich; beat Gorilla Jones; beat Cyclone Turner; stopped Kid Gayton; stopped Bat Wiggins; , stopped One Round An- drews; stopped Sam Casper; stopped Jack Martin; beat Ed Daily; beat, Jim Inman; stopped Ed MccKenna; beat Kid Savage; beat Kid Williams; beat Sailor Baike; draw with Vic Alexan- der; Draw Leo Matlock; Lost deci- sion to Steve Dalton and Billy Gibbs. GETTING THE JOY OUT OF LIFE DON’T HURRY—DON’T DELAY Action and reaction are equal. We get out of life just what we put in it. Before the flood when men lived to be nearly one thousand years old they had plenty of time to consult their relatives and friends before buying a book or a farm, and then put off doing so a hundred years and. still have plenty ot tine. Today we move at a switter,. pace. Life is more complex. We do not live so long as in those days and time is really our most valuable possession. Since Lincoln's time the population of the country has nearly quadrapled and we have jumped from the bottom of-the ladder as a Race to the top fi pastas, and become a world figure. ‘This same ratio of growth during the ‘next sixty years will give us a popu- lation of half a billion soula and per- haps more. j To properly feed, house and clothe the future generations is sure to be @ great problem. With this we-haye uo concern, but how to care for we have now fs fast giving us to do. It is only a question of thna phen every foot of arable Innd we have will be utilized. All will be highly’ ed, naturally or otherwise, and made to yield three'or four. a year by newly developed, highly in- tensive, scientific cultivation: "| Many workers id shops, stores, of fices and all other lines of activity are getting tired of the ennul and less grind to make mere and at the end of pne year no ‘their goal than another, and are’ forward to owning a-arm e land in Mexico where the /mild and they can grow their own liv. fog and make money besides. = ‘Hf you are thinking \of going to Mex. 4eo in’ the near future, we say—don’t hurry!

It is the big idea of,the generation and is attracting country-wide attention and many are availing themselves of its advantages, as tHey are bound to do as {t becomes more generally known. A little land—a garden homstead— a living therefrom for one’s self and loved ones—in addition to a good in- come and assured future independ- ence under your own vine and fig tree, the master of your own fate, is a solution-of most Negroes’ problem and the real antidote of nearly all the great problems threatening our social fabric. ‘You can easily take advantage of The International Community Welfare League Colony plan if you act now or in the near future. If, however, you are in moderate circumstances, in reasonably good health and are ex- pecting to go to Mexico to live and get your living from the land, do not, delay taking the proper stops to that end.
