Even-Handed Justice Is Asserted As Judge Pat R. Parker Gives Judgment Against The Owl Drug Store for Discrimination in Public Places PHONE 150-44 Lela Hutson, colored, was awarded $500.00 damages against The Owl Drug Company for being discriminated against in their store at 5th and Broadway, April last. She was represented by Attorneys Griffith Jones and John J. Craig, and the case was heard by Superior Judge Pat R. Parker. In response to questions by Mr. Craig, Mrs. Hutson told the Court that an employee of The Owl Drug Company on April last refused to serve her with food at the lunch counter, and that he violently assaulted her and struck her on the face with his fat; that one of the employees attempted to eject her from the store but she siezed hold of a large scales and prevented this. The Drug Company produced witnesses who testified that Mrs. Hutson was the aggressor and that she had thrown plates violently about the store, but Judge Parker, in rendering judgment for Mrs. Hutson, said that there was no doubt in his mind that Mrs. Hutson had been discriminated against in direct violation of the state law, and that business houses should inform that in this state houses entitled to eat in public places; and that were their discriminations against people in cases like this permitted to go on it would lead to a chaotic condition. Judge Parker then gave judgment for Mrs. Hutson in the sum of $500.00, and costs. The Eagle takes pride in congratulating both Judge Parker for his keen sense of even handed justice in the above case and to the firm of Griffith Jones and John J. Craig for their efforts in presenting the case of Mrs. Sutton in such a manner as to obin the above results; and after all we are reminded that despite the obstacles which hinder us and the fact that justice for some people often goes astray, that there are just men of the calibre of Judge Pat Parker on the bench who respects his oath of office and whose inate soul is the personification of a real and just Judge. Likewise do we appreciate the fact that such men who have delved deep into the law as Griffith Jones and on the Craig as Phoebe Jones up against even so great a corporation as the Owl Drug Company and demand justice for their client. This thing of adding insult to injury and breaking the constitutional law of the state of California at the same time will soon come to an end and even handed justice will reign supreme. LABOR TO SEEK REAL BEER CNCINNATI, Jan. 25.—(Crusader Service) Modification of the Volstead act, to permit the manufacture and sale of real beer, is the goal of a National drive to be launched following conference here next Sunday between members of the General Executive Board of th International Brewery Workers' Union and Samuel Gompers, President of the American Federation of Labor. PEOPLE OF JAMAICA RESENT ANNEXATION TALK KINGSTON, Jan. 25.—(Crusader Service) The request of American prohibitionists to the British Foreign Office for the exchange of the British West Indies for the war debt and the publication in American newspapers of articles advocating the acquisition by American of these islands for military purposes have aroused great interest and called to exchange their present wet regime for a dry one, plus white American impoundance. HARVARD IN GRIP OF THE KU KLUX KLAN HARVARD IN GRIP OF THE KU KLUX KLAN Harvard University, with the halowed traditions of America's oldest, greatest and most liberal educational institution, has apparently fallen into the sinister clutch of those un-American influence that make for race discord and all the material and spiritual evils that race discord foments and perpetuate. This is evinced by the recent action of Harvard's President Lowell, who has, in his official capacity, barred from the college dormitory, solely on the grounds of his race and color, young Roosecoe Conkling Bruce, Jr. son of Roosecoe Conkling Bruce, a Harvard graduate of 1902, and Grand Son of forme United States Senator Blanch Kelsey Bruce. We do not believe that the fair-minded people of the North—and of Massachusetts, in particular will allow the presidential decision to stand unchallenged. It is an act of insulting discrimination on the one ground upon which all men should have the privilege of proving themselves equal, and an act with far-reaching consequences, in that it not only probes, but buras, like a corrosive acid, that unhealed wound in our social structure—the problem of inter-racial relations. DEATH BLOW TO U. N. I. A. AMSTERDAM NEWS NEW YORK, Jan. 25.—(Crusader Service) by alleged Garvey fanatics has caused a great wave of resentment and horror in this city whose Negro population well remembers the many acts of rowdyism at public meetings in halls and on street corners of the local Garvey followers. Attention has been drawn, too, to the peculiar clause in the constitution of the Universal Negro Improvement Association whereby the members of that strange aggregation are virtually given a blanket pardon for any crimes they may commit as long as those crimes have been committed. In the interest of the U. N. Negro Improvement Association and his lieutenants to incite their followers against the opponents of the Garvey doctrine that this is a white man's country and must accordingly be surrendered to the white man are also recalled. The local press is bitter in its denunciation, several of the papers treating the assassination editorially. The Amsterdam News is among those papers that look upon the recent crime as a death-blow to the Garvey organization. In its issue of January 10, that paper carries the following leading editorial: "DEATH BLOW TO U. N. I. A." We are not willing to go so far as to say that Marcus Garvey was implicated in indictment in the cowardly assassination of J. W. H. Eason, former leader of American Negroes in the Universal Negro Improvement Association, of which :garvey is president. We will not go so far as to say that such an extreme measure would be approved by officers of his Association. We do say, however, and most emphatically, that the murder of Mr. Eason will not do the U. N. I. A. any good, even if he was one of the outstanding opponents of Garvey and his enterprise. Such methods have never been known to do any good. The men who actually shot Mr. Eason may have thought they were doing the U. N. I. A. a service, but they are mistaken. What they actually did was to give it its first serious blow—a blow from which it will never recover. GARVEY MAKES MOVE TO SHIFT BLAME U. N. I. A. Head Facing Prison Term Accusers Former Associate of Larceny. NEW YORK, Jan.—(Crusader Service) With the Federal authorities speeding up their collection of evidence and preparation of the case against Marcus Garvey and his associates of the defunct Black Star Line, Inc. Garvey has made a definite move to shift all responsibility for the alleged fradulent use of the United States mail from his own shoulders to those of his former associates. Eli Garcia, Auditor General of the Association and Secretary of its Black Star Steamship Line, was arrested yesterday, charged with petty larceny, on complaint of Garvey. According to Garvey, Garcia substituted an alleged bogus check for $40 in cash at the association's office. Alleged irregularities in the handling of $1,500,000 worth of securities intrusted to him will also figure in the trial, Garvey says. Those familiar with the case against Garvey and his associates are of the opinion that Garvey has committed a serious tactical blunder in moving against Garcia previous to his (Garvey's) move will simply force Garcia to turn on his chief and tell the truth of the entire sorry mess in self-defense. EGYPTIAN AGENT JAILED IN PEACE PARLEY SCRAP WITH OWN COUNTRYMAN LAUSANNE, Jan. 25—(Crusader Service) Abdul Hamid Sald, head of the Egyptian delegation to the Near Eastern peace parley, has been jailed because he resorted to "two-fisted" diplomacy to settle the problems of his country. Abdul, who weighs 225 pounds and was formerly the Greco-Roman wrestling champion, was arrested and charged whit the attempted murder of Mohammed Fani, chief of the Egyptian Press Bureau, as the result of a quarrel in a hotel room over Egyptian independence. Police declare that Abdul was strangling Mohammed when they arrived. SENTENCED TO THE - CHAIR BATTLE ACCUSES ANOTHER BATTLE ACCUSES ANOTHER NBW YORK, Jan. 25.—(Crusader Service) As William E. B. Battle, nineteen, was sentenced by Judge Stickel in Newark yesterday to die in the week of February 15, for the murder of Mrs. Eleanor Louise Brigham, white, of Orange, twelve days ago, A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA JANUARY 27, 1923 the probability of further developments appeared when Capt. Walter Godfrey of the Prosecutor's staff, said Battle had denied stealing two pieces of jewelry missing from the Brigham prison. Battle's execution will be expedited with the same suspicious speed as was his indictment and trial. DR. GRANT DOUBTS POWER OF CHRIST Noted White Divine Accepts Truths of Science Against Fundamentalists. NEW YORK, Jan. 25.—(Crusader Service) In a sermon before his congregation in the Church of the Ascension, Fifth Avenue and Tenth Street, yesterday, Dr. Percy Stickney Grant outspokenly declared that few clergy men educated in the sciences accepted the idea that Jesus had the power of God, and that the consecration of churches was a survival of the "age of witchcraft, magic and taboo" and is opposed to the emancipation of the mind. The sacredness of marriage and the other sacraments, Dr. Grant told his congregation, comes not from the priests, "who have no power to make marriage more than it is," but from its essential characteristics "which have to do with the lives of the people involved and cannot be preserved as something independent of their feelings and behavior." The clergy declared, was largely recruited from the unintellectual "who are credulous of the miraculous character of the ministry." He said that the country gets practically nothing from the 234,000 churches, synagogues, etc., in the United States in exchange for its remission of taxes on church property. "Don't you suppose that if some bright man or woman were permitted to have the church for an hour or two when no one else was' using it, and this speaker were to make a useful address on a problem of political life, which means life under government, or economic conditions, which mean bread and butter wages, or on social questions, which means housing, hygiene, education, etc.—I can say don't you suppose that each of these churches could secure an average of fifty more people than they now receive? "The power of the priests to perform such an act (as consecration) with such consequences is due to the theory, which is still held by the Roman Catholic Church, and by the high churchmen in the Episcopal Church, that through what is called the apostolic succession a line of bishops unbroken from Christ to Bishop Manning are supposedly gifted with miraculous powers. Through the so-called apostolic succession, the clergy and priesthood of the present day have received miraculous powers from Jesus Christ, who received them from God. "Now, of course, very few clergymen today have been educated in the large universities—by which I mean places where science as well as classics and mathematics is taught—accept the idea that Jesus had the power of God. He doubtless did miracles, as they were regarded in his day, but as M. Coue points out, many of them were acts of auto-suggestion, and would fall under well-known categories clearly and well classified by psychologists today. Science understands them. They are not miracles. WHAT IS THE TROUBLE HERE? On last Tuesday Miss T. Johnson met with quite an unusual experience and cruel rebuff from one of the attaches of the Security National Bank which institution has a long and high class record for courteous treatment to all peoples as related by Miss Johnson herself. She says that for 12 years she has been a depositor at this bank and a great many times this same clerk would take and enter her deposit, but on last Tuesday this same man had forgotten that he had ever seen her and as she presented checks to the amount of $1.30 she was ruthlessly shoved aside and told that for all he knew she could have picked these checks from the street and humiliated her to the extreme. We are sure the management of this bank stands for no such treatment as related by Miss Johnson to anybody and that she should not hesitate to report the incident. BOY GIANT FAILS IN FIRST ROBBERY NEW YORK, Jan. 25.—(Crusader Service) Reginald Heaton, who, although only 16 years old, is a giant in stature, was locked up in the Atlantic Avenue Station shortly after midnight after his attempt to rob Mrs. Ethel Miller, white, Brooklyn, of a handbag which contained $220 and $1,000 in gems. Heaton, who is six feet tall at Prospect, pounds was captured at Prospect Place. Heaton after policeman Pollock had three shots at him in a one block chase. At the police station Heaton said that he lived at 1675 Atlantic Avenue He declared that his morning's holdup was the first that he had attempted. DEAN KELLY MILLER URGES RACE CONFERENCE Various Social, Religious, and Political Organizations Should Co-operate Dean Kelly Miller of Howard University, Washington, D. C. issued a statement last week to the effect that the "time is ripe for a race conference." that the conference should be nationwide, and not footed by a national organization is the belief of Dean Miller if it is to be successful. Newspapers throughout the country have carried articles regarding such a movement, and are unanimously in favor of same. Information can be obtained from the Dean at Howard University. This is a very timely suggestion and statement by one of the outstanding leaders of the race. We feel that much good may be derived from a meeting of this kind where the best thinkers, and workers, and leaders will disseminate ideas and make programs for the future welfare of the group. According to Dean Miller, "The time has come for all to pull together. If we continue to pull apart, we will pull to pieces. The whole is greater than any of its parts. The members of the body can never cooperate properly unless they become consciously subordinated to the welfare of the body as a whole." Hartcook 44.

OFFICER C.P.WILLIAMS LAID TO REST On last Friday, funeral services were held over the remains of Officer C. P. Williams at Wesley Chapel. Promptly at one thirty, o'clock the partors of Connor and Johnson, undertakers at 17th and Naomi St., and accompanied by 42 colored officers, the family and friends proceeded to the cemetery. All were held, conducted by Rev. L. B. Brown who was assisted by Rev A. P. Shank, the pastor of this church. The services were marked by simul- city in its fullness. The choir sang an anthem, prayer was offered by Dr. Shaw, a solo was sung and Rev. Brown, eloquently spoke of the life and character of the deceased. Mrs. M. Robinson sang a solo and the remains were viewed by the vast concourse of people. All of the high officials of the police department headed by Chief Oaks attended the obsequies. Lieut McLary prepared the following eulogy for the departed officer. In this hour of sorrow, it is meet and proper to speak words to make less the suffering of those left behind. Our friend and brother officer, C. P. Williams, was well and favorably known to me, having been placed in charge of most difficult detail, that is, the handling of the vice situation on Central Avenue. The confidence placed in his loyalty, fidelity, integrity and ability when he took charge, was not for a moment abused. At all times he was courteous kind, competent and just, having many friends but no favorites, having much hard work to do, and doing it just as a Christian gentleman should. The splendid record of his achievements in the enforcement of the law will forever be a beacon light, bearing testimony to those carrying on the work in years to come, that a police officer can do his duty without fear or V.

The family of Officer Williams, a great an irresparable loss has come; to the Police Department also a great loss, and we who knew him best can but say we lose a friend who stood always for the right, stood always against the wrong, carried on his work as an officer with honor to himself and credit to the Police Department, and when the Supreme Sacrifice was made, he passed his reputation unmarred by a single stain. We say: "Well done, thou good and faithful servant! Enter unto the joys prepared for thee!" The many beautiful floral offerings completely filled the Rostrum and choir stand. Forming the funeral procession from the church was the full band of the Police and Fire Department of 80 pieces followed immediately by Chief Oaks and high dignitaries of the Po- EAGLE lice Department and a squadron of police officers. The procession moved South on San Julian Street to 9th; east on 9th to San Pedro; north on Son Pedro to 8th; east on 8th to Central Avenue; south on Central Ave. to 9th; east to Linden, where the band and high officials fell out, the procession of friends continuing on to Evergreen where the body was interred. No prince or potentate ever received greater honors than was accorded to this officer who came up from obscurity, but by proving his worth and always doing his duty, these honors and the mighty outpouring of people testified more than words the esteem in which he was held. The sorrowing wife, mother and relatives can well be consoled and realize that the public not only appreciated his worth as an efficient officer, but that he was a faithful husband, loving father and dutiful son as well. Peace tohis ashes. A YOUTH'S SERMON TO HIS ELDERS By H. Wallace Thurmon How different are the youths of today from the youths of yesterday; and just imagine how different the youths of tomorrow will be. What pain and distress we are causing our elders today: yet—what pain and distress our elders caused their elders and I refuse to think of the pain and distress the next generation will cause us. Tis funny that time seems to eradicate early memories of one's youth; it's funny that elders always expect too much of their posterity. I suppose that it is merely another of the numerous fallicies of human nature. I am youth, still untouched by the ruthless hand of Father time; still enjoying that indescribable something that makes youth so popular, so desired and so pleasing. I hasten to make a mild protest against the vicious condemnation you elders give we modern youth. I protest mildly because it is more effective than the opposite extreme. I protest only mildly because realize that soon I will be an elder and that the next generation will protest against my treatment of them. The twentieth century youth is the product of nineteen hundred and twenty years B. C. of restrained forefathers. They are no worse, nay, not as bad as our forefathers. True, we seem more brazen, more daring but the whole truth of the matter is that we are more frank, more truthful. Mary Ann and Jimmie both gamble, smoke, drink, shimmie and first merely trying to satisfy some inherent and mysterious desire that refuses to be satisfied. They all desire something and go to the extreme to find that elusive something. Do we find it? Positively no; and I don't say that we are justified in our actions; But why condemn us when the whole world has gone mad also? They are merely the results of our foreparents' silent desires. For oodles of generations women have gathered in small cliques and whispered to one another how they would like social, economic and political equality. Think of the years that our respected grandparents have secretly wished that they could be slightly inconventional without courting decapitation. And still you wonder why we are so wild. They are merely the physical products of your desires; we are merely ultra modern, too sophisticated youth trying to find happiness; we are merely, rubber tires with highly infused inner tubes. Now elders before you criticize us too severely remember your own wicked days. Remember when you longed to hug and kiss one and did yourself more mental harm than we do by flirting with whom you please. Remember the times courted one another in secret love nests. Remember the times you imbbed of stolen liquor in the barn or in some alley. Think how much better it is not to have to be sneaks. Remember that our vices are your vices only that we are daring enough not to care who knows about our flirting and shimmying and please remember that open vice is not near as venomous as hidden vice. I thank you. H. WALLACE THURMAN. PASTOR TO PHILLIPS C. M. E. CHURCH On last Thursday evening the peo- of Los Angeles turned out in large numbers to welcome Dr. W. L.

Branch made prolonged stays in many important cities with a view to getting down to the minute data for this vitally interesting publication. It may not be known that Dr. Branch, between 1916 and 1920, spent $50,000, furnished by Northern business firms, to transfer Colored people from the South to the North and East. He was bankrupted in the Texas courts for this "offense," and in 1915 was forced to leave Texas City, Texas, for denouncing the slave system instituted by army officials upon the race for five days and nights.

Williams of Los Angeles, was a visitor at the home of his father, Rev. H. H. Williamson, last week. The Riverside Snap Shots failed to appear in the last issue of the Eagle. Mrs. David (Gray) Thacker, of Colton, was a visitor in the city last week Mrs. Thacker is so well known that her old friends are always delighted to see her. Mr. Lawrence R. Williamson returned from three days' visit in Los Angeles last week. The two Baptist Churches in this city should unite, viz: Second Baptist and Park Avenue Baptist. And there is only one preacher (according as we see it) that can unite them. If he will consent to undertake the task. Let us have union of all the Baptist forces in this city. Divided as they are at present neither can accomplish much. For where there is union there is strength. It is divided we fall. Mr. Julius Williamson, President of the A. C. E. League of the A. M. E. Church is arranging a program for a debate in near future. Subject, "Resolved the Pulpit is a greater force for good than the press. Details later. Question supreme.

Beal, R. A. Anderson, Henry Lockwood, R. M. Suan, Sam Jackson, T. J. Andrews, E. Beck, M. L. Jenkins, R. J. Shipp, P. S. Those initiated were. F. W. Jackson, Leo Carter and Ulysses S. Thompson. Mr. J. A. Collier was sick and could not attend. We received a sample copy of the Half Century Magazine published at 5202 Wabash Avenue, Chicago. We thank the Managing Editor for this favor. The magazine is a Negro enterprise and should receive the support of the Race. Mrs. Luberta Rogers, of Chicago, is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. McDuffey of West Riverside. Rev. R. H. Wade, Missionary of the Western Baptist Association visited Second Baptist and Park Avenue Baptist Churches last week in the interest of his work. Mr. J. A.

Gipson of Los Angeles, preached at Second Baptist Church Sunday Morning and addressed the Missionary Society in the afternoon. Mrs. S. H. Goodwin and daughter, Mary, are on the sick list.

Well brother there is some changes contemplated in the pastorate of the churches here about. Rev. F. W. Cooper has tendered his resignation as pastor of Second Baptist Church to take effect about March 1st and rumor has it that Rev. W. H. Rozier will retire from the pastorate of Park Avenue but that is just rumor. Any way we may expect to see some changes. Already two aspirants have visited Second Church and others will come no doubt. The much needed rain for this section began falling Monday night and everybody is glad. The new cafe is nearing completion and will be ready for the opening about February 1st. It will be a grand or swell affair. Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm Keys are the proprietors. Rev. W. H. Rozier is due at Park Avenue Sunday. Call on Rev. H. H. Williamson for cabbage plants now ready for putting out They are 10 cents the dozen. Mr. James Stowers contemplates going into partnership with Mr. W. E. Webb in the Auto Repair business in the near future. Mr. Webb is now doing a good business in his line and needs a partner and Mr. Stowers is the right man for the place and the Eagle man sees a successful business for these two young men.

It took the name Capital City Court No. 9; elected and installed the following officers: Mrs. M. Atkinson, W. C.; Mrs. Rose Edwards, W. 1.; Mrs. Velma Burgess, Insp.; Miss Anna E. Edwards, R. A.; Mrs. Viola Brown, W. O.; Mrs. Martha Thompson, R. D. Out of town grand officers present were Mesdames Bozonier, Meade, Turner, Johnson and Shaw of Oakland and Corbin of Vallejo. Rev. J. T. Muse of Woodland is serving in the present legislature as an assistant sergeant-at-arms; he is an appointee of Assemblyman Fred B. Noyes of the 8th District. A. J. Haynes of Los Angeles seems to be a very busy man about the capital. Mr. and Mrs. G. L. Green of Oakland spent the week end in the city. Mme. Anita Patti Brown and her accompanist, Miss Natalie Doxey, spent a little time chatting with The Stranger between trains Tuesday en routes from Reno to Oakland for a return engagement. The Sutter School lost the 90 pound Soccer Championship to the Washington School Saturday morning, in the playground league, at McKinley park. Harry Slaughter was again the Star player on his team. Our boys organized a basket ball team recently to participate in the City League games. They have taken the name Eureka and won the first game they played in, one of the best contests seen here lately. The Jim Ballard's, the only Colored team in the American division of the Winter League remain at the head of the league and still hold their 1000 per centage and if they can win their next Sunday game will practically have clinched the pennant, as the remaining games would not be enough to overcome their lead. On the sick list this week are Mrs. F. J. Butler, Mrs. W. E. DeClaybrook and Miss Cleo Clay. Mrs. Bertha Bogar is slowly improving after a seven weeks seige and Miss Samantha Keen is better. Dr. J. M. Riddle, former pastor at large, of the Northern Baptist Convention, now an attendant at the legislature, lectured at the First Baptist Church in Modesto Sunday night. That church carried the following ad in a Modesto paper: "Dr. Riddle, one of America's ablest colored preachers will lecture. He should have a large hearing. He is sane, eloquent and at tractive in his speaking." DEATHS Mrs. Nannie Langley, aged 81 years, died Thursday night, January 18th, at the Sacramento Hospital. She was the wife of the late Marcus Langley, a native of North Carolina, but had lived here for the past forty years. She was the mother of Mrs. Esther Noble of San Francisco and the grandmother of Herbert L. and Vernon Noble of San Francisco and Mrs. Allen Newman of Oakland. Mrs. Langley was a "pillar" of Shiloh Baptist Church, working in the Sunday School and Missionary Society, and was a real Christian worthy of emulation in every way. The Church was crowded to its doors Saturday afternoon with sorrowing friends to show the esteem in which she was held. Rev. J. E. Allen, her pastor, was assisted by Rev. Fred A. Hughes and her remains were laid to rest in the city cemetery. Fenton was in charge of the funeral. NOTICE: Silver Leaf Court, of Clanne No. 3, K of P. E. and W. H., found it impossible to officiate at the funeral service of Sister Nannie Langley, as the service was held so very soon after death that it was impossible to prepare. Mrs. Mary J. Carter, W. C., Mrs. Julia V. Brown, W. R. D. John Coleman celebrated his birthday last Thursday night and his friends gave him such a rousing time that he wasn't able to get out Friday night. AT THE LEGISLATURE Assemblyman Roberts said he had only one bill to introduce, but has offered two already and has others pending. A. B. No. 156—Relating to property exempt from execution has been referred to the Judiciary Committee and A. B. No. 162—Relating to Concurrent Jurisdiction of the Superior and Justices' Courts, referred to Judiciary Committee. The first bill provides for the exemptions up to a thousand dollars in liens and judgements and will bring an obsolete law down to date. The second will protect both the honest landlord and tenant of the small class. The local papers run news stories that Assemblyman Roberts was a double for Charles S. Gilpin, the famous actor, and astounded a San Francisco audience Sunday week while attending a performance of the Emperor Jones, the story also says he bears a striking resemblance of Jog Gans, the greatest boxer of his day, so much so that one day in a Middle-Western city when he walked into a refreshment place, every body, was called to the bar to "have a drink on Joe Gans." Beware you wife-beating husbands for Assemblyman Pomeroy of Redondo Beach proposes introducing a bill to establish a whipping post for the man who gives vent to his ire by beating his wife. He thinks public floggings by the sheriff or deputy, the lashes varying according, to the degree of the offense, will reduce to a minimum this kind of pastime. Senator D. C. Murphy of San Francisco, has introduced a bill to make possible State aid for people of moderate means in home building. The act is along the line of the state veterans' aid legislation, and will provide creation of a dwelling house construction fund under the control of a state commission. Such an act would enable many deserving people to acquire homes who are not now able to do so. The Stranger says we should be very much interested in such legislation. Dr. Ernest Dozier, assemblyman from Redding is seeking an amendment to the red light abatement act, which he believes will eradicate the evil of scattering houses of ill fame through the better section of practically every city of the state. He says the necessity of establishing such districts where they are desired by the citizens of the community is apparent and he also says that through the ineffective manner in which the abatement act has operated since its adoption, the evil has spread rather than disappeared, as intended by the framers of the law. The amendment will provide that when segregated districts are established that the inmates of the houses be subjected to regular inspection by public health officials. Assemblyman Williams of Le Grand is starting a movement which is intended to head off this bill. The Stranger says he would like to see that bill passed putting the Bible back into the public school where it belongs. The Father of his country went to God on his knees at Valley Forge and the Savior of the Union received his education from the Bible and every real editor in this country studies it for style, diction and brevity. The Stranger says: Day-by-day in every way we are growing better and better—the lynching record for 1922 shows a decrease. Only sixty one Negroes and six whites were victims of the mob the past year and no women. The use of arms by peace officers prevented fifty eight lynchings. The hopeful sign that we are growing better is there no women lynched. FRESNO. CAL. By Miss Elizabeth Davis.

COLEMAN, GARVEY LEADER OF SOUTH WEST IN NOTABLE ADDRESS Now, your very own and original, the old reliable, J. W. Coleman, has gained full leadership and is the mouthpiece of the Hon. Marcus Garvey in the Southwest and on last Sunday week at Liberty Hall on Central Avenue in a set speech. Coleman burned up all the oxegen and was still giving great guns at the close of his speech on this occasion. His subject was: "How the Negro defeats himself" and from his many years as a labor agent states that he gained his thought which prompted the subject. After giving a practical talk along the line of real things, the doughty and undeniable Coleman waxed eloquent and laid down the gauge of battle, when he proceeded to read the titles clear of Chandler Owen, Randolph DuBois, Robert Abbot, Emmett Scott, Robert Moton and as he would have it, last but not least, J. B. Bass of the California Eagle and Noah D. Thompson of the Evening Express. He roasted them all to a frazzle and closed his address jamidst the greatest of applause by his followers as he recited the following lines: NEGRO FACES THE WORLD Marcus Garvey is a noted man By his side we expect to stand. Over in Africa, hand in hand. We expect to take our mother land. Of Africa's Son and Daughter are seen. Under the colors of Red, Black and Green. Chandler Owen, Randolph, DuBois are sick in bed. Because Morcus Doctrines is about to kill them dead. IN THE MUSIC WORLD By John A. Gray It will be interesting, perhaps, to many music lovers, to learn a little about Beethoven's colored friend, George Augustus Polgreen Bridgetower. The very fact that Beethoven, the famous master, was on intimation terms with a race man and that this man was a violinist of high standing during his life time should be of vital interest to our race in general. Bridgetower was born in Viala, Poland, about the year 1779. His father was from some part of Africa and his mother was a Polish or German woman. There were two sons. The other brother became a cellist and was known in Dresden where he resided with his mother. There is not much written about this boy and so we must content ourselves with the history of George. During the year 1790 George, accompanied by his father, came to London and was introduced in high circles. His father was familiarly called the "Abyssinian Prince" although there is no direct information that he came from Abyssinia. At that time George was known as a violin prodigy of exceptional gift.

PRICE----75c vn Letters, answer- LOS ANGELES. CALIFORNIA scription given in his passport which was found in Vienna police records and which was dated July 27, 1803, he is described as follows: "George Bridgetower: character, musician; born in Viala, Poland; twenty-four years of age, middle height, smooth brown face, dark brown hair, brown eyes and somewhat thick nose." The boy was said to have been a pupil of Glorn or Jarrnowic and at the age of ten showed great talent. In his youth he became a musician in the service of the Prince of Wales, who later became George IV. In 1802, while yet a lad he visited his mother in Dresden. On Feb. 19, 1790, George made his first public appearance at Deury Lane Theater, where he played a violin solo between parts of "The Messiah." Here the youthful performer arrested the attention of the Prince of Wales, and in the following June gave a concert under the patronage of the Prince of Wales. The same year he played at the Professional Concerts. His studies were continued under Barthelemon, Giornovichi and Altwood, while at the same time he became first violinist at the establishment of the Prince at Brighton. Then followed many successful appearances as soloist and ensemble player. About May 24, 1803 he gave a concert at Vienna, at which time, the celebrated A. Major Sonata, Op. 47, dedicated to Rudolph Kreutzer of Paris, said by Schrieber to have, been originally written for Bridgetower, was performed. The patron list for this concert included many titles and noted As the concert date was near at hand, Bridgetower urged Beethoven to complete the Sonata for piano and violin, that he might have his part. Only the first part had been written, the piano part simply sketched in here and there. One morning he called on Beethoven and again asked for his copy. As there was not sufficient time to complete the work, Bridgetower played the Theme and Variations in F from Beethoven's manuscript. This took place in the Hall Ausgarten at 8:00 a.m. In these days, this was not an unaccustomed hour for rehearsal. In later years Bridgetower spoke to Thayer about Beethoven, and told him that when the Sonata, Op. 47, was composed, all the parts had been collected, and on the first leaf was a dedication to him. Before leaving Vienna however, he quarreled with Beethoven over a young woman, and Beethoven then dedicated the work to Kreutzer. He further states: "as I accompanied him (Beethoven) in this sonata, I suggested in the first part of the Presto, eighteen measures, for the pianoforte instead of nine. Beethoven jumped up and threw his arms around me and said, 'Again, my dear boy,' and held the pedal down on C during the course of this, unto nine measures --- PAGE-7 Gives it Hue, ENCE. Carring in shade also in IA Beethoven's expression in the andante was so chaste, which was always characteristic of his slow movements, that the sympathetic unison demanded a repetition: A concert review cited by Thayer is quoted from Friel Fremutigen on August 1, 1803: "Bridgetower, in the service of the Prince of Wales, had a full house. He is certainly a very powerful violin player. The greatest difficulties he overcomes with a happy boldness and facility." About this time, Beethoven wrote as follows: "Monsieur Baron Alexandre de Wetzlar. At home on May 15. Although we have never spoken, I do not hesitate for all that to speak of the bearer. Mr. Bridgetower, as a master of his instrument, a very skillful virtuoso worthy of recommendation. Besides concertos, he plays in Quartets in a most praiseworthy manner and I wish very much that you would make him better known. He has already made the acquaintance of Lobkowitz. Fries, and many other distinguished admirers. I believe that it would not be unwise to bring him some evening to Theresa Schonfeld's who I know has many friends, or else at your home. I am sure you will be thankful to me for the acquaintance of this man. Leben Sie wohl, my dear Baron. Respectfully Yours, Beethoven." The friendly relationship that existed between the two musicians is further shown by the following letters which were in the possession of Mr. Appleby: "Come, my dear boy, at 12 o'clock to Count Dehm's, where we were day before yesterday. They will perhaps wish to hear you play something—that you will see. I cannot come before half-past one—until then I will take pleasure in thinking about seeing you to-day. Your friend, Beethoven." A second letter also without date, reads: "Have the kindness to meet me at half-past one at Taronischen Kaffe ehaus. We will go to the Countess Guicciardi's where you are invited to luncheon. Beethoven." After the concert appearance with Beethoven, which took place in May, Bridgetower returned to England, and in June, 1811, took the degree of Bachelor of Music at Cambridge. His exercise was an anthem which was performed at Great St. Mary's on June 30. During the later years of Bridgetower's life, he fell into obscurity. The date of his death was not learned until recently. He died in the south part of London in 1860. A daughter, who lived in Italy, was said to be his only offspring. The above information was secured from Thayer's "Life of Beethoven," and from an article by Maud Cuney Hare, which was published n "Musical America." In memory of this great artist of our race the local Chamber Music organization known as the Bridgetower Tio was named. ```markdown ``` Social Intelligence Heard or Seen in Passing PAGE-8 Soc In Las Viudas Allegras.

Dear Sir: Assemblyman Roberts is here acting like a real legislator—he is evidently of the right stuff. I was able to place as Assistant Seargent of Arms, Mr. A. J. Haynes, of Los Angeles. He is a man of education, ability and dignity. He looks and acts the part and is a credit to the colored people of Los Angeles as well as to the Senate. I am a firm believer of the rights of the colored population to representation in our public affairs as they are good citizens and tax payers and stand by the G. O. P. and as a rule are Progressive. I would like to see Mr. Roberts in due time elevated to the Senate. The colored people in my district did their part in my election to the Senate from the 38th district where I have labored for the public benefit and for real democracy for many years. I had special support from such distinguished citizens as Dr. Taylor, Dr. Sommerville, Mr. Flint and others. Sincerely yours. CHARLES H. V. LEWIS, State Senator 38th Dist. LYCEUM STARTS WITH A BANG By the Reporter. When the newly elected president, Leon Whitaker, opened his first meeting last Tuesday evening, he found that an enthusiastic group of members had gathered to start the new year off aright. The critic in making his report took particular care to state that the meeting had started on time and so one can conclude that the Young People's Lyceum of the Independent Church, really did start with a Bang! The start was not the only feature of last Tuesday evening's meeting, for every minute was spent in either discussing, reporting, reviewing, or listening to the splendid program. New committees were appointed, others are being formed, and every member is resolving to make this the biggest year in the history of the Lyceum. The athletic department of the Lyceum is planning on building tennis courts and organizing a ladies' Gym team. Be on the lookout. The Lyceum is open to all ambitious young people in this city who are interested either in music, literature, drama, or athletics. And so come out of the next meeting and get in with a lively bunch of young people who are really doing things. FOR RENT: Furnished rooms for light housekeeping. 1240 W. 85th St Phones, West 1648. CUB-C CAPPERS By Leon Whittaker We hear with great regret that Odue Jones of the Federal Department has turned Benedict. It is generally feared that his average will fall. However, he soon finishes. Aomn the most pea-green Frosh we have with us Miss Marion Robinson, a smiling lass who dances a la deaux. Among the least pea-green Frosh and the quasi-gree Soph (heads), we have with us Hon. Wendell Gladden, the dashing young journalist from Howard; Mr. Graham, the sea-going lawyer from Washington State; and Miss Cotton, a congenial and enterprising young Miss from Fish University, whose burning desire is to be come a professorette in her dearly beloved Alma Mater back in the cotton stae. John Latimore, a member of the Lyceum is out for the baseball team. He is making good. Two of our men had the honor of playing under the great Charles Gilpin in the "Emperor Jones." Altho their parts were minor ones, they showed superb talent and interpretation as it were. The smoke of the Scrollers will soon break out into the flame of the Ain't but the one, Bud. No one flunked out last week. Hallelujah! THE WHITE SOX WIN GREAT GAME IN TERRIFIC DRIVE There were big doings at the White Sox Park on last Sunday. It was a real ball game when the Colored boys crossed bats with the strong San Diego Club and beat them out by a score of 7 to 6. The San Diego team got away to a running start and in the third inning drove Pitcher Curry to the showers with a score 6-0 against the Colored fought on. With Mendez taking Curry's place on the mound, the "nothing doing" sign went up and San Diego was cross-eyed the remainder of the game. But the boys kept pegging away and slowly but surely did they gather enough runs to tie the game up in the 9th and in the 11th inning with two on bases, Johnson, the mighty slugger connected for a two bagger and the Colored boys were on the long end of the money. The feature of the game was the heavy hitting of Mackey, two triples, a double and single. Carr also slammed out a triple. Ward also played a stellar game while King Curry made the best pitcher, left-hander ever. Billy Donaldson and Reardon umpired the game in a faultless manner. See the red hot game tomorrow. SAPOLOGY By Kenneth Wallace Be a bootlegger. No longer need you be content with an ordinary job and an ordinary salary. Here is a new, easy, positive way to achieve the kind of success you have always wanted. My business has increased so in volume here recently, that I must have some intelligent, ambitious young man to assist me with this work. Thousands of Angleleons are stricken with colds and gripe and are crying for succor, If you want to know if my method works let's take an actual example. I. Needa Head was born helpless with a wooden leg. His parents were poor, he had little schooling, yet, despite these handicaps he is a rich man. He now owns a blind pig of his own and is doing a lucrative business. My secret formula for making "bottled in bond" from tobacco juice and kind pepper will be sent to you upon receipt of one dollar. Fill out the blank below and make a fortune! Wives, houses, and diamonds in these days of colds, grippies, and coughs are abandoned, mortgaged, and pawned, so that the larder can be stored with castor beans juice and hard grape juice. Everybody's got a cold. Why not, form a "Coughers Union." No union cougher on liability of fine must cough over eight hours a day, hour for lunch, and Sundays off. Flippers and flappers caught sneezing after hours in parlors or parks will have their coughing permits revoked. Fair little stude With the horn rimmed specks Got a cold in the head And a cold in the neck Mama's little darling don't you fret A castor bean cock-tail will save you yet. According to the night owl sleep is a prerequisite of good health. Who wants to be healthy and out of fashion? If you are too slow to catch cold start a diet of cold storage and cold cream, and chant incessantly, "Day by day, in every way, colds get fashionable, and fashionable." (A-pologies to Dr. Coue). Question Dept. If Robert E. Lee was a confederate general why did he wear a union suit? The beautiful likeness of "Sweet Juliaette" Harris, Pacific Coast champion in ladies singles, doubles and mixed doubles, appears in the January Crisis and is a tribute indeed to the tennis world and puts the West on the map as never before. Better hurry and get a copy, as the article gives the Easterners an eyefull of "who the West is" Carry on, Juliaette. Watch Your Neighbors RAPIDLY RISING IN THE WORLD, AND THEN ASCERTAIN HOW THEY ARE DOING IT. IN NINE CASES OUT OF TEN YOU WILL FIND THEY HAVE PURCHASED THEIR HOMES, OFTEN ON EASY TERMS, WHILE THEIR LESS ENTERPRISEING NEIGHBOR IS STILL PAYING RENT. A WORD TO THE WISE IS SUFFICIENT. IF YOU HAVE NOT YET STARTED ON A HOME OF YOUR OWN, DO NOT DELAY. STARTED ON A HOME OF YOUR OWN, DO NOT DELAY.

Inspiring services were held at this church the past Sunday. The Pastor preached at the morning hour using as his text: "It is good for me to draw near God." (Ps. 73:28). Two persons were accepted into the membership of the church at this service. At the evening hour Rev. W. P. Banks was the speaker. He brought a splendid message on: "Pure Religion" On the whole the day was pleasantly and profitably spent. Two special services have been arranged for this Sunday, Jan. 28th. At the morning hour the Pastor will bring a special message. In the evening the Choir will have charge of a musical program, assisted by some of the best talent of the city. All are cordially invited to worship with us. Rev. M. F. Mitchell, Pastor The pastor filled the pulpit both morning and evening last Sunday. Subjects: "Blessings Through Prayer;" "The Resurrection of Jesus." Both discourses were delivered with power. The pastor held his audience spell-bound. Appreciative audiences graced the services. The Choir with Madam Viola Harris Brandon as directress rendered an exceptionally good musical program. The B. Y. P. U. under the leadership of Mrs. Katherine McNear had a most enthusiastic meeting. The S. S. under the leadership of G. W. Holling is making progress. Our chorus furnished music for the N. A. A. C. P. on the occasion of its monthly meeting at the A. M. E. Zion Church, Monday evening. About twenty-four voices well trained by its directress participated. The Chorus was showered with compliments by each speaker. Special services next Sunday. BIRCH ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH 14th and Birch Streets The spiritual thermometer of this church ran high last Lord's Day. All were recipients of showers of blessings. The pastor preached two very able sermons. At 11:00 o'clock A. M. he spoke upon the subject of "The Sad Life" using for his text these words: Good were it for man if he had never been born. Mark 14:21. He declared that it is better not to live at all than to live out of harmony with God. Attendance of young men is indeed gratifying. The Birch St. Christian Church is highly elated over the grant of charter by the Broadway Christian Church. This fact affords much encouragement to our members in that it augments the dignity and pride of the congregation. Meeting of the international business mens' league held in this church last Lord's Day, 3:00 o'clock P. M. was one of great moment. Atty. Hugh Macbeth and Mr. Jas. Alexander made strong pleas for race solidarity. The Bilbrew Quartett rendered a number of thrilling selections. These meetings will continue to be held here every Sunday afternoon indefinitely. Regular services next Lord's Day All welcome. WARD CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH 1252 East 25th St. B. R. Guy Baster Services Sunday were very interesting. Sunday morning quite a number of visitors were present and expressed themselves as well pleased and promised to return. In the morning the Pastor spoke from the text, Jesus Christ the same Yesterday, Today and Forever. The Sunday School was well attended. The Allen Endeavor was very interesting and instructive. At night the Pastor spoke from the text, Father I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. The Prayer Meeting was well attended and the spirit was plainly manifested. The Woman's Mite Missionary Society was well attended last Monday and they are planning to assist in beautifying the church. THE FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH—Eighth Street and Towne Avenue. Rev. A.

Pastor Ward desires all members of the church to take a package of the 1923 envelopes for their offering that they may be credited upon the official record of the chukreh. Interesting services were held last Sunday. The Rev. Dr. Dana W. Bartlett preached the sermon at 11:00 a. m. and appealed to the audience to assist in the helping of the sufferers of the "Near East." A splendid contribution was made in cash and subscription. Lawyer W. O. Tyler made fitting remarks on behalf of the people of color and received a hearty outburst of applause from the vast audience. Prior to the sermon by Dr. Bartlett, and after the splendid anthem by the choir that noted gospel singer Emanuel Hall sang, (as he only can sing) "I Can Not Drift." Pastor Ward preached at 7:30 p. m. Mrs. Rosa Harris was the soloist and the choir inspired the audience with good spiritual songs. Many prominent visitors were in attendance. FIRST A. M. E. ZION CHURCH—Corner Pico and Palmoa Streets. Rev. W. E. Shaw, Pastor. Residence 1217 Paloma "For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten son that whosoever believed in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16. This was the text used by our Presiding Elder last Sunday morning to a most excellent audience. They followed his discourse on this beloved text with keen interest. A text that never grows old but thrills ever with love and mercy. One young woman joined the church ranks. There were many communicants afterwhich the two children of Mr. and Mrs. Shannon Wiley were christened. An exhortation to the ungody was the central theme of the evening message used by Presiding Elder Clark. Our pastor Rev. Shaw will preach at both services next Sunday. The evening subject will be "The Fast Young Woman." If the gospel unadulterated can save our young people they will be saved if they hearken to the burning and convincing messages of this fearless man of God. On Friday Evening February 2, Mrs. Ursaline Bannister Shaw, wife of the pastor, will be heard in Dunbar Impersonations.

RIGHT BACK AT US The Turkish Society for the Protection of the Negro Minority in the United States is just as busy trying to assist this nation to protect its minority, as this country is busy looking into the atrocities alleged to have been perpetrated by the Turks in their country. The other day, this Turkish Society for the Protection of the Negro Minority actually passed a resolution, that the government of the United States be requested to assign the States of Georgia, Alabama, Florida and the Carolinas to the Negro Minority, in order that safety may attend the continuance in their present situation of the population which is vexed with fears, in line with the humanitarian sentiments expressed by the representative of the American government at Lausanne. The resolution declares that a home should be set aside in the United States for the Negro population, on the same basis and with the same guarantees as are agitated and proposed by the American government for the Armenian population in Turkey. The resolution called attention to the blood-curdling atrocities committed by white mobs against Negroes in the United States and cites several examples of persecution and oppression of colored people, citing the case three years ago of a pregnant colored woman lynched by a white mob and her womb slashed open and the unborn baby crushed to death as it struck the earth following the ripping open of the woman's womb. The organization voted to send copies of the resolution to the United States Congress and "to the leading Negro organizations, the Advancement Association and the African Blood Brotherhood." Now, in the face of passing events, we feel that the Turkish Society, in protecting the Negro minority, is performing a real service to humanity. We are firm believers in the slogan: "Clean up your own house before attempting to clean the houses of other folks!" DIVERSIFY YOURSELVES Southern California is a wonderful country, and a grand place to live; opportunities are great. Our people are coming here by the hundreds. We don't blame them for coming; in fact, we urge them to come. But we don't want them to all come to one place. The opportunities are greater by far in rural communities, where they may get right down to the proposition of production. Let not the tall buildings, red and yellow street cars, and other manifestations of big-city civilization, make you shy at the producing game for one moment! Produce something—and then, if the City beckons you on, come to it, though gently it must be. We have experienced diversity of religion, diversity of crops, and now, in coming to California, we want our people to diversify their places of abode, all for the continued progress and rise of a struggling race. If You Fail To Read----THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE----You May Never Know It Happened THE WRONG TACT This writer has no quarrel with the Baptist Church. Some of the brethren want to convey the idea that one man by the name of Carter, here in Southern California, IS the Baptist Church. We don't for one moment believe that he is, and by no hook or crook are we going to remain silent until we are convinced otherwise. Since Brother Carter inaugurated his insidious campaign against this paper, more than a dozen of the very ministers he seeks to control have said to us: "You are right! and we appreciate the fact that you come right-out in the open to meet your adversary." Hundreds of members of the Baptist faith are squarely back of us as we write these lines, for they know we are not waiting until "the horse is stolen, to lock the barn and sound the alarm!" Take a common sense view of the question: Can you think of one really big man in this whole country who would slide around, waging war on a newspaper which has stood for forty-two years as firmly as the rock of Gibraltar, for the integrity of the race? Can you even imagine such a thing? And now comes this "holier than thou," who would destroy us. We would be less than manly should we fail to strike back. Not in anger, if you please, but in defense—showing that such leadership is unsafe for any denomination, race or creed. Next week read Ira Smith's article, "Who's a Cat's Paw!" SPEAKS WORDS OF JUSTICE In strong contrast to the position of Judge Walton Wood, is the word of justice spoken from the bench by Judge Pat Parker, when he declared there was no question that the plaintiff had been discriminated against, and that this practice of discrimination against American citizens in public places must be ended. We wish to add, that happily we have but few Walton Woods on the bench of the Superior Court of this County. The latest statistical figures give the wealth of the Negro as $1,1000,000,000, or about $74.00 to every man, woman and child. This would seem to be going some in sixty years! HARVARD BAN FINAL, SAYS PRES LOWELL. Race Aroused Throughout Country Over Insulting Restrictions Against Negroes. Action Never Before the Observers. Hope of Revocation Seen in Resentment of Many of White Alumni and in Fact Decision Has not Been Reviewed By Board. CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Jan. 25.—(Crusader Service) That his decision to bar Negro freshmen from the dormitory where other freshmen are forced to live by college regulations is final is the latest statement from President A. Lowell Lawrence. The Negro people have been aroused by this action of President Lawrence as over no like action of other universities and colleges, because they have always looked upon Harvard as a stronghold of liberal sentiment towards them. President Lawrence's action is interpreted by many as indicating the extent to which the Ku Klux poison is penetrating into what were formerly the most progressive and liberal parts of the country. Harvard men in New York and throughout the country who hold sacred the Harvard traditions of tolerance and fair play have voiced their resentment over the Lawrence decision and have conferred with the President in an attempt to influence him to reverse his decision. His latest statement quoted above is his answer to their efforts. The situation has been aggravated by the fact that the youth barred is the son of Roscoe Conkling Pierce, himself a Negro graduate of Harvard and in a position to put up a fight. Foremost among recent developments was the discovery that the matter never has been put before or acted on by the Board of Overseers of the University. The Board of Overseers is one of the two governing boards of the institution. The other is the "Corporation," consisting of the President and Fellows. Whether the matter has been laid before or acted on by the Corporation could not be learned today. The question of which board has the highest authority is one it is said, that has never been settled in 300 years, but joint action of both That is why a Complete Funeral for $75. Other funerals in proportion. The Best without extravagence. boards is required on all important matters. The question of barring the freshmen dormitories to Negroes, which has been brought to a head by the case of young Bruce, probably will be taken up by the Board of Overseers, but no member could be reached yesterday who would discuss it or give any opinion as to the graduate protest against what is declared to be a departure from the university's tradition of tolerance is indicated by the fact that the memorial drawn up by seven prominent graduates last June when other cases of Negro exclusion from the freshmen dormitories were reported, had the signatures of 133 graduates of classes ranging from 1850 to 1920 when it was presented to President Lowell. "Jim Crow the College." Declaring the action would "Jim Crow the College," the Rev. Dr. William Manning Gannett of Rochester yesterday gave out a statement of his views on President Lowell's action. He said: "I think the proposed exclusion policy at Harvard would violate all her traditions and certainly her best ideals. In its measure it would "Jim Crow" the college. It would show her siding with those disposed to increase rather than lesson the burdens of the colored people in our land, and this is at a critical time when interracial and international questions are pressing to the fore, demanding noble adjustment. Ideals of justice and democracy are certainly part of a Harvard education. "Nor do I believe the best element(1) in the South would be won by a sur render of our Northern conception of such ideals to their social preferences. As proposed, it might be but a slight exclusion, the educational opportunity, as I understand it, not being withheld, but it would be a great racial insult, undeserved, and it is too late in history to do such a thing—above all, for Harvard, with her record, to do it. In less than a generation we should all be ashamed of it." Miss Marjorie Hall, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Ball, of South Budlong avenue, entertained with a delightful birthday party. Saturday, January 20th. About thirty guests were present, and Miss Marjorie was the recipient of many pretty and useful gifts. The Social Hour Club of the Birch Street Christian Church, Mrs. Richardson, President, Mrs. Cothran, Treasurer, entertained at the Church on Tuesday, January 2.3 with a miscellaneous shower for Mrs. Jones, of Monrovia. This popular and charming young matron was formerly Miss Naomi Turnaze. Mrs. Helen Thompson had charge of the shower. An enjoyable program was a feature of the occasion, which all present declared to be a most enjoyable one. The young bride received many practical and beautiful tokens of friendship from the friends assembled. MORTON'S GRILL (Formerly the Palm Cafe) 908 CENTRAL AVE.
