OLD HOME TOWN HONORS EDITOR OF EAGLE On the occasion of our recent visit to Helena, Mont., from which place we came to California in 1911; the following clipping from the Enterprise of Seattle, Wash., gives the following account: The citizens of Helena turned out en mass Monday night to greet their former citizen, J. B. Bass, editor of the California Eagle. For several years Mr. Bass owned and managed the Plain Dealer of this city. This is his first visit here since going to California nearly twelve years ago. J. A. Calleander presided at the meeting, which was held in St. James A. M. E. Church, and opened with an instrumental solo by Mrs. M. A. Lowery, followed by an address on journalism by Rev. George S. Allen. Mr. Edward Miller, bass soloist, was accompanied by Mrs. Miller. Mrs. George M. Lee and Mrs. J. D. Hart, presidents of the Pleasant Hour and the M. B. T. Art Clubs, respectively, welcomed the distinguished visitor in behalf of the women of the city, Mrs. Hart presenting him a picture and journal of the State Federation. Following a solo rendered by Miss Elenora Anderson, accompanied by Mrs. Lowery, J. E. W. Clarke read a poem entitled, "Central Avenue," the Negro business street of Los Angeles. The chairman of the meeting then, in his usual inimitable manner, presented Mr. Bass, who held the gathering in rapt attention for one hour while he painted a glowing picture of the inviting possibilities of California. He tolm of the steady stream of Colored people daily arriving from the South and Oklahoma, of the religious, business, political, professional and civic life of the Negro in his state. He enlarged upon the agricultural possibilities and inducements awaiting producers to extract from the rich soil the product of nature to feed the millions in other ORED VOTES for Councilman honors than any other white candidate; (Can you believe it?) while men like WHEELER, SPARKS and MUSHET, who fought the KLAN and made it unlawful for them to appear disguised in public places, received little consideration from the Colored voters.

PATRON OF THE STATE OF BOSTON. 14TH SCHOTOL AUDITORIUM IS PACKED TO OVERFLOW Congressman Dyer, author of the famous Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, which measure passed the House of Representatives but failed in the Senate and which bill the colored people along with all fair minded persons of the white race rae insisting must be passed a simple matter of justice and redemption of the Nation from the shame and disgrace of mob law. The distinguished Congressman was met at the Ambassador Hotel by officers of the N. A. A. C. P. At the corner of 8th and Central avenue, they halted and were snapped by the Eagle photographer, and were joined by an escort of honor, the uniformed rank of K. P.'s commanded by Captain Leo and headed by the Los Angeles Progressive Band. Arriving at the school house, escorted by president J. C. Banks, E. Burton Ceruti and a guard of honor, through open ranks the party entered the large auditorium which was packed and jammed to the utmost. Thousands were turned away. President Banks called the big meeting to order after an anthem by St. Phillips C. M. E. Church choir. Invocation was offered by Rev. S. M. Beane, pastor of the Hamilton M. E. Church. The audience then stood and sang "America." The president then turned the meeting over to Atty. W. O. Tyler to lift the collection, which amounted to $237.00. Prof. J. C. Banks then, in a brief but masterful, manner, introduced the distinguished statesman and humanitarian, who came forward and straightway waded into the address which pleased everybody who heard it. The speaker did not mince words but struck a responsive chord when he told his hearers where the fault lay in the failure of the United States Senate to pass the Dyer Bill. Republican Party General Johnson nad Shortridge Responsible He did not hesitate when he put the blame for the failure of the passage of the Dyer Bill upon the Republican party and included therein the senators from California, Johnson and Shortridge. Later on in his address for fear there might be a misunderstanding or misinterpretation of what he said, he reiterated his former statement and said, "You can tell the senators that I came here and said that they, Senators Johnson and Shortridge, were responsible for the defeat of the Dyer Bill." The Congressman admonished the preachers of the race to get right with GOD and get together for the uplift of the race. This sally brought forth tremendous applause. Told President Harding He related that before he left Washington he called on our president and in the course of conversation, the President told him that he was planning a trip through the country in behalf of International Justice. He said that he told the President that he wished him well, and he was also planning a trip but that his trip was to be in behalf of Justice for America. This brought forth thunderous applause.

Wheaton The Mark of the Beast We received a letter from a friend who lives in the State of Montana. He is a cattle raiser, and told us that a band of wolves payed havoc among the young of his herd this season. He has succeeded by the use of poison and strenuous hunting to kill off the most of the band, but not before they had caused him great loss financially. Those wolves were hungry; their destructiveness was not wanton; they killed and satisfied their hunger. They did not kill for sport, neither did they kill for hate. The color of the steer or calf was nothing to them; they killed for hunger. A pack of human wolves, not urged by the pangs of hunger, but by hate of color, and disregard of the law, descended on a black man, "who it is alleged" attempted to assault a young girl, who belongs to the race termed white, and without due process of law took his life. The El Paso Times, published in The Paso, Texas, has large head lines, stating that the Co-Eds of Columbia. The University of Missouri were among the number of women who cheered on the Lynchers. So much for the higher education in Missouri. The ranchman in Montana exterminated the band of wolves that killed for hunger. Will the Guardians of the Law, who represent the State of Missouri prosecute the human wolves who killed for lust of blood, and hate? —The Marathon Dancing Craze— Some young men and women have been acquiring records for dancing. That is to determine which could drag their weary legs around a hall the greatest number of hours without stopping. When it is over, what does it amount to? Have they contributed one thing to human development, or added one mite to the happiness of the world? Dancing as a recreation contributes to the enjoyment, but it is the apex of silliness to see a young woman half asleep, her feet dragging, and being groomed in public like a race horse, taxing her strength and stamina, for what? They say that the Japanese breed a species of mice with brain that is abnormally developed on one side. They term them dancing mice; they whirl around and around until they fall from exhaustion. We have not heard of any Negro Marathon Dancers. It must show that, at least, the brain of the Negro is normally balanced. It must be so, for they are going ahead building Hospitals, and other things that count in the world's development. The Negro brain shows things that count in the world's development. The Negro brain shows equipulse, and it counts, wonderfully, in the summing up of world events. —Why Did He Do It— Word came to us of an act of heroism, which being enacted far from the plaudits of the multitude, without the blare of bands or waving banners to herald it, standsout as one of the most sacrificing acts a human could make. There was nothing to prompt the deed. No fraternal ties; not even the bonds of a personal friendship. Yet one man deliberately sacrifices his arm to save the life of his working companion. The two men were digging a well. The one below would fill the heavy metal bucket with earth, and it would be drawn up by a crank by the man at the top. In drawing up the bucket something became wrong with the winding gear and the cable began to slip with the heavy laden bucket. If that bucket slipped there was no possible way for the man below to escape death, and there was no time to search for a bar or something to check the speed of the descending bucket. So in went his hand, the cable and cogs commence to move slowly, but they ate his hand then on up to the bow, and to the shoulder, before it could be stopped on its bloody journey. Thus they found him. His mangled arm flattened out and suffering pain, excruciated. There are impulses which impel men to deeds of self sacrifice. What are thy? CHANDLER OWEN THRILLS LOS ANGELES AUDIENCE NEGROES BEGIN TO THINK The long-heralded Lecture by Hon Chandler Owen, on "The New Solution of the Race Problem," at Labor Temple Auditorium on Monday night, May 7th, was the greatest intellectual treat our public has enjoyed for many a season. Chandler Owen is nationally known as the joint editor with Phillip Randolph, of the "Messenger," noted radical politico-economic Race magazine published in New York. Mr. Owen is unquestionably the Race's best-informed living authority on economic and sociological matters and addressed a night so ill which it will people at least and to even interpret. In the course of cited a number of his personal influence succeeded in having Unions in New York bership to Race w efforts some thou girl needle worker now receiving Uni on economic and sociological matters $70.00 per week. phrases Mr. Owen told his anxious audience that it is far better that these thousands of women-wage earners should thus have the doors of industrial and economic opportunity thrown open to them; than that one or two "big" Negroes should hold high-salaried jobs with high-sounding minds. its solution must economic lines. Mr. Owen declare the "nickel, under The Negro sho his sad lot in this said; conditions are, are far better countries whi He cured upon the fact that the industrial and political aspects of the Race problem should engage the attention of our people at this time, rather than the question of social equality. He proved, with brilliant, incontrovertible logic, that the race problem is fundamentally a matter of economics, rather than Color, and screened a picture termed "Bella Donna." The heroine makes love to swarthy Egyptian who treats her as all Oriental treat women subject to them. But the heroine seems to like it for she delights in the embrace of her Lord and is jealous if he is not attentive. But, and here comes the comic part, a fiery Southern gentleman? takes umbrella at the picture, and ventils the spleen on the producers as well at the actress. He terms them "Kikes" and says that they are subtle demoralizing the "Southern" youth by portraying a white woman in the arms of a man with a dark skin. Now! Don't that seem ridiculous? Just the other day—Down South—a prominent politician was found entwined in the arms of a comely woman with a dark skin, and don't the gentlemen from Texas remember, that not so long ago, some address on last Monday and sounded a distinctly new note, night so, probably take the Negro which it will score of years people at least another to even interpret. In the course of his talk, Mr. Owen cited a number of instances when by his personal influence and activity he succeeded in having certain powerful Unions in New York open their membership to Race workers; through his efforts some thousands of Colored girl needle workers in New York are now receiving Union wages of $55 to $70.00 per week. And in stirring its solution must be worked out along economic lines. In other words, as Mr. Owen declared, it is a question of the "nickel, under the foot." The Negro should cease bewailing his sad lot in this country, Mr. Owen said; conditions here, difficult as they are, are far better than in those other countries which are frequently referred to as havens of race refuge. The Negro must realise that he is forced to fight for whatever he gets, wherever he may be. There is no "problemless world" for him. And his fight can be more successfully waged in this country where his weapons, political power, and labor-power can be most effectively wielded. of the brainsest of the Southern women, when they were decrying the single standard of morality as practiced by Southern gentlemen? said, "That what was the sauce for the Goose, was sauce for the Gander," or words to that effect. We would not like to trace the footsteps of the Texas gentleman? if there was a screen put up on some prominent corner, and he was warned that his derivations with women of color, committed under the cover of darkness, would be thrown on that screen for the public to gaze at. We think that Texas would lose a prominent? citizen, and Honduras or some other hiding place gain a BLATHERSKITE. The Jews will go on producing motion pictures, and the frithing of the Texas fellow will eventually evaporate.

By: E, W: Kyle |_ A wise son maketh a glad father, but a foolish man des- piseth his mother, says the proverbs. The very name of mother -sounds like what we know and ‘hear of* the. old times, and her name has a’good old-fashioned meaning. She lived so long-ago that it is sirange ,to have any record of her, and we were not surpris- ed, either, for she was of the kind whose name and fame en- dure. There were some moth- ers in that olden time whom we do not at all admire, and so we do not address’ to this one simply because she lived a long time ago, nor do we wish to heap any reproach upon the mothers of today just because jthey lived in a later age. We laze fond of speaking of “Old- time Religion,” “Old-fashioned | Mothers and the “Old-Time Homes,” because they stand ‘for things which endure, be- {cause they are built upon a rock foundation, because from them have come people and characters which have stood the test of time and have proy- en worthy of confidence. You can look into those eyes, listen to that dear voice, and notice the feeling of even a touch that is'best¢wed upon you by that gentle hand. Make much of it while you have that most precious of all gifts, a lov- ing mother. Read the unfath- omable love of those eyes, the kind anxiety of that tone and look, however slight your pain. In after life you may have friends, fond, dear, kind friends—but never will you have again the inexpressible love and gentleness lavished upon you which none but a mother bestows. Years have passed since we laid her away beside our fath- er in the cold church yard, yet her voice still whispers from the grave, and her eyes wateh over us as we visit spots long since hallowed by her memory.

NEGRO MIGRATION. Negro migration is disturb- ing the South. The shortage of labor is disturbing both northern and southern employ- ers. The South would stop Negroes from leaving. The northern employers ° would flood the country with immi- grants. ' It is not to the point merely tocall the immigration (so longed for by Judge Gary) “cheap labor.” For while the average immigrant does have a lower standard than the Am- erican worker, black or white, at the same time, when the supply of labor ‘becomes so excessive, all wages begin to come down. No one_ knows this better than Mr. Gary of the United States Steel Trust. And no more dangerous force could be operating for the re- peal of the law limiting immi- gration than Judge Gary. He \has great economic, political jand social influence, and he is |an_untiring worker. | Now is the time for Negroes lto migrate from the South. |They should become intrench- led in every industry—so_thor- joughly intrenched that they |eannot be so easily removed in jfuture years. |__Negro migration helps _ the | Negroes who migrate because |they get better jobs where | wages are higher, hours short- ers, work more desirable, con- |ditions more humane, civil |sights more secure, plus polit- lent pewee: Their leaving al- so helps the Negroes behind be- cause it holds out a constant tures to the Southern white employers. These white bour- bons say: ‘We've got to treat the Négroes here better or they will all leave. Besides if we treat them bettr, the others who have gone may return.” And this is quite true. Of course the Negroes are com- ing North for better economic opportunities. Thay \ a.¢ in search of higher wages. It is true Negroes would like to es- cape lynching, jim-crow_ cars, discrimination of A kinds, and general abuse and injustice. But they are not coming away for that Reason: For the last twenty-five years more Negroes have migrated from the North to the South than from the South to the North, until the war work attracted Southern Negroes to high wage fields. The reason is fundamentally |economic. People don't live, as a rule, especially where they desire, but where they must— that is, where they can get work. This is as true of white as of Colored people. The Pil- grim Fathers came to America —not to worship God accord- ing to their consciences, but in order to chage gold.; The white people of Europe will leave. the culture and refinement and comforts ‘of Paris, London * or Berlin prid oan the Kion- Gike—uninvitinig arid. uncem- fortable though it be generally —in order to amass’ wealth. Negroes .who enjoy the _ best mixed, non-segregated school: of Boston, New York and Chi. cago, who have the right to vote, to go into the best thea- tres, hotels and places of pub- lic accommodation will pack up and go to Florida, the back door of Georgia, every winter —not because they like the place, but because they can se- cure work at good wages, or good returns in tips and wages. It is well that this migration should be thoroughly undere and bacteria to the mouth and some- stood. It is well that we should catch thé economic significance of this‘movement of Negroes from Dixie. It makes little dif- ference what any leaders, white or colored, northern or southern, may say—these Ne- groes are goipg to get to the high wage ids. And should the South at some future time develop to the industrial stage of denianding large numbers of workers who. would be’paid higher wages than the northern industries are paying, then Ne- groes and white people will mi- grate from the North to the South of these United States. A study of the situation, too, would probably reveal that the Southern whites are migrating, also. They are trying to get part of these ‘nickels’ which revived industry is offering.

Since thé hands are so conspicuous and all Important, they cannot, be passed by 2 careless washing and then proounced “clean.” Serv: pulons attention always should be given to the hands. If neglected, they become excellent carriers of disease germs. The hands must not only be Kept clean, bit every effort should be made to preserve the skin and keep it in a soft condition. It the hands are chapped or rough, cold cream massaged thoroughly into them at night is most beneficlal. At ter the application of cream, duet the hands with a good talcum powder. This prevents the cream getting in contact-with the bed linen and night robe. Bathing the hands in glycerine and rose water also is most helpful |. ‘Those who have lean. awkward hands can easfly overcome this ap- pearance of general clumsiness. Bathe the harids often in hot water and then rub them in cornmeal and cottonseed oil, and keep them. dry. ‘The results of this treatment are surprising. Exercise of the fingers and muscies of the hands’ also great- ly assist in beautifying them. Blemishes, such ag warts, very of ten may be removed by a lotion made of one dram of salicylic acid and flex fble collodion, one ounce.

Every person ought to wash bis hands ang remove any deposits from under nafls before eating.

An orangeweed stick {s used to push back the outer skin which comes down over the root of the nail If not often gently pushed back, this becomes torn and-ragged, making op enings in the skin which are excellent lodging places for infectious matter Blood-poisoning has occured from infected and neglected hangnails. Un sightly stains on the hands may be removed by a solution of acetic acid and rosewater, one part of the former to sixteen parts of the latter. It is always wise occasionally to visit a medical manicurist and to have the nails put ip perfect condition. ..Then the individual can generally care for his nails and keep them in good con dition for a long time.

We spoke of the shame of America but here we have disgrace upon the Negro. The fact that some of us have been fortunate enough to escape the toils of mob law . and the cry of “lynch,” precludes us from taking 2 retrospective vjew and giving a few serious moments of thought to the less fortunate . No one seemed bet ter informed as to the strength and weakness of the race than Mr. Dyer. He had found that our biggest asset lay in church organization, and ac cordingly, stressed this point with unminced words. Our weak spot, as was pointed out, 1s utter disinterest through lack of proper organization and spasible investment. We like the crowd, noise, the road of Teast Fesist anee and new self-satisfaction. Nothing new was told, nothing startling, The only surprise was the fact that Mr. Dyer was so ably io: formed of ou status in life. We were glad that he came. We welcomed his message.

DUNBAR HOSPITAL A SUCCESS Much credit is due the Dunbar Hospital for the successful work which it is performing in this Community. Particularly do we wish to mention the case of Mrs. Frances Jones of 241 S. Vernon Avenue Pasadena, the mother of Claude and Colonel Jones, who was so successfully operated upon by Dr. Whittaker, one of the staff of the Hospital. Her sons inform us that the operation in every respect was entirely satisfactory, and that day by day in every way, she's getting better and better. MINING. MAN A. VISITOR Mr. E. B. Patterson, representing the Comobabl Consolidated Mine Company, was a visitor at the Eagle offices this week. He is in Los Angeles for a brief vacation. Mr. Patterson, in company with Mr. W. T. Allen, Treasurer of the Company, left six months ago for Tucson, Arizona, to assist Mr. G. W. Miller, President of the firm, to put into shape an independent property to sell. The mining man's report is that developments are progressing beyond the most optimistic expectations. During the period spent by Mr. Patterson in Arizona, a vein of ore has been opened up, 20 feet wide, averaging $116.00 to the ton. They have several other claims, upon which they are working, and which it is proposed to develop to a greater extent before placing the same upon the market. At the time Mr. Patterson left Arizona last week, the workmen were just entering a large quartz porphyry vein, that showed every indication of carrying rich gold values. This vein is twenty-five feet in width, and it can be traced for miles across the country on the surface. The Company had planned to show this property up within sixty days, that on account of damage in operations, it will take some 50 days longer. Mr. Patterson will be in Los Angeles about ten days, before returning to the basis of operations. PROMINENT BAPTIST CLERGYMAN A VISITOR Dr. B. F. Abner, A. M. and Ph. D. of Oakland is at present in Los Angeles, in the interests of the National Baptist Convention, which is to convene here next September Dr. Abner expressed himself as looking forward to a most inspiring gathering of Baptists from forty-eight states. Dr. Abner arrived on Saturday, May 12, and is the house guest of Dr. Mahon C. Cooley, of East 12th Street. He will shortly return to his home in Oakland. The Popularity Choir Director's contest given at Phillips Chapel, C. M. E. Church last Tuesday evening by Mrs. H. E. Norwood was a huge success. Three choirs were represented. The Christian Church Choir, with Mrs. Brandon as director could not be present, but they sent in a donation which was greatly appreciated. St. Paul Choir with Prof. Pitts as director, rendered two beautiful numbers which were graciously received. Metropolitan Choir with Mme. Outley as director rendered two beautiful numbers which also defended great applause. The first prize, a director's gold pin was won by Metropolitan Choir. The second prize a $5.00 gold piece was won by St. Paul Choir. Both Choirs sang beautifully. Aside from the Choir contest an enjoyable program was rendered. Eevery one went away highly pleased with the entertainment. Too much praise cannot be given Mrs. Norwood for this wonderful effort which was both entertaining and very successful financially. Mrs. Norwood and her sister Mrs. Obelia Teele, will leave Sunday morning at 9 p. m. for a visit to their mother in Dallas, Texas, on their return they make several stops giving concerts in Chicago and severa al other Eastern cities.

In a wild race down Central Ave. last Sunday night, in which three automobiles took part, Isadore Solomon was struck by one of them just after he had alighted from a Central Ave. ar and struck with such force that he was hurled from 39th St. to 38th St., and killed instantly. It is said that the racing autopilot kept right on without investigating or stopping in any way whatever. Officers Kimbrough and Broady Make Arrests With a meager description of these racing automobile drivers, Lieutenant of Police Broady and Kimbrough founded up and arrested O. B. Bagley, driver and O. J. H. Mack of the death machine. At the Coroner's inquest on Thursday these two men were designated as the slayers of Solomon and they are now in limbo accused with manseaughter and must go to trial on that charge. ODD FELLOWS THEIR ANNUAL SERVICES Bass, will deliver an address on behalf of the old women of my congregation. There will be other addresses from interesting speakers and a short sermon from the Pastor. We cordially invite all of our friends to at least come over and speak to us a word of encouragement with regard to what we are trying to do. Sincerely yours, REV. DR. E. R. DRIVER, Pastor Saints Home Church on last Sunday presented on the occasion of their Annual Thanksgiving Day a most splendid array which excelled perhaps all fraternal demonstrations ever held in this section. Headed by Gregory's band playing martial airs, they marched from their hall at 8th and Wall Sts., north on Wall to 7th; East on 7th to San Pedro, South on San Pedro to 8th St., then West to Wesley Chapel, which place was filled to its utmost capacity to hear and witness the ceremonies. J. W. Stanley acted as Master of Ceremonies in a highly creditable manner. Atty. Afue McDowell delivered the Annual Address, while Rev. J. W. Price preached the Annual Sermon, numbers wree furnished by the Households and Juveniles which were of the highest roder. All pronounced this the greatest Thanksgiving day in the history of the Order. San Diego, May 13. Excelsior Lodge G. U. O. of O.

GED OPEN PICTURF FOR PATHE AND SOUL GED PICTURE MASONS ORGANIZE CLUB On Wednesday evening, May 9, 1923, a number of prominent Masons gathered at the Parish Hall, 1527 Paloma Ave., and organized a social club to be known as the B. Square Masonic Club. It is the purpose of the several lodges together and, to promote a closer social inter-course among them. Members of the Masonic Fraternity have, for a long time seen the necessity of social club or high standard and quality among its members; and they are confident that a great benefit to the members and community at large will be derived from such an organization. The club plans to erect in the near future, a modern Club House which will be a credit to the organization and to the Race. All Master Masons of good standing are eligible for membership and are invited to join.

Migration of Negro Labor The migration of Negro labor from the Southern States continues, and it is causing untold losses to the firms and plantations of those sections. White the fate of higher wages is one of the reasons for this exodus; it is not the primary one. That is, if we are to judge it by the stories told by the men and women who have, virtually, left most of their earthly possessions behind them in the flight from terrorism. We have been told that since the exposure of the cruelties of peonage the lower and criminal classes of the white population have entered on an organized system of terrorism, unbearable. It has been stated—and the statement seems to be borne out by the confession of the Florida Ex-Jailer, who testified to the bestiality of the county officials—that there is no means of redress because the officers of most of the counties are of the lower strata of society. It being almost an impossibility to elect decent white men to such positions as sheriff and other county offices. Many of the men and women who have fled the South, naturally, prefer that section. To many it holds memories that are dear to all, but as one man remarked, "I hated to leave! My parents and my wife are buried there, but when I looked at my growing daughters and realized under what handicaps they would grow into a decent womanhood, I decided to seek other fields." It is up to the decent white people of the South to take up once again duties which they laid aside, and were insured by Tillman, Blease, Williams, Harrison, Vardaman, and that ilk who with cacophonous voices have risen to political power through exploitation of the Negro. Give the South decent officers for law enforcement, and the labor movement will cease. Pride:The Right Kind We listened, recently, to a member of the, United States Congress who addressed an audience composed mostly of Colored people. He spoke under duoplices of a nationally famed organisation, and in behalf of an equally nationally famed measure. It was a lucid address, replete with the recital of brutalities which should cause self respecting America to blush with shame. The speaker showed a knowledge of the racial traits of his audience enough to cause one to wonder if they had obeyed the injunction, "Men know thyself." It was during that portion of his address which related to the apathy shown when the Association was in dire distress for means to carry on its war for humanity, that he mentioned that a white woman who was interested in the fight for justice, gave a check for ten thousand (910,000) dollars. The audience applauded. We bowed our heads in shame: Twelve million Negroes in the estimate of the population of the United States. Ten thousand dollars is needed to carry on a cause that would aim to put a stop to the brutality against the Race by mobs. Is it possible that among that twelve million there was not ten thousand Negroes with enough race pride to pay one dollar each to "Carry On?" There is pride and there is Pride. No end can be gained without effort. One puts it that "The road to heaven is to do something with all your might, the road to hell is to do nothing persistently." If we would put an end to the evils which we now, through injustice, endure we must have enough PRIDE to do for ourselves. The Florida Legislature has passed the bills prohibiting the whipping of Peon prisoners in the convict camps. The death of a white boy was necessary to awake the good people from theirpathy. Awake them to the knowledge that their beautiful State was being pointed out as a specimen of ignorant brutality meriting the scorn of civilization. The Federal Court of the same State, (Florida) has indicted, the former sheriff of Leon county, J. R. Jones. The whipping boss in the convict camp of the Putnam Lumber Co. Walter Higgenbotham, and the Superintendent of the camp, Fisher. They were indicted on charges growing out of the legislative probe into the death of an aged Negro, Ned Thompson by name, who it is alleged, died as the result of brutal treatment while in the Putnam camp. If the Federal court will adequately punish them if convicted we will begin to believe that at last, "The dawn is breaking." Sponsored by Wm. Jennings Bryan, the Florida legislature has before it a resolution banning the teaching of Darwinism in the public institutions of the state. The Apostle of sixteen to one has been "up in the air" ever since some one had the temerity to suggest that man was descendant of the anthropoid ape or some of the monkey species. The great Commoner could not see it that way. We wonder if he ever gave a thought to the dastardly crimes which have been unearthed by the recent exposures. We suggest not. Even pious hypocrylic oftimes takes on a different complexion with its environs. Why The Attitude? One would think that when a people have fled from surroundings which had become unbearable; and were acquainted, first hand, with persecution and prescriptions; Yes, one would think that those people would be overly anxious to assist in any movement which could ameliorate the condition of those whom they left behind. But the hardest task that one can take, and be successful, is to seek to convince the person who has but recently arrived from one of the Southern states that it is a dire necessity that he or she join the ranks of forward thinking groups in the fight for better conditions for the Negro in these sections. It is a tank to get them to contribute their money or to give their moral support. Having escaped from thralldom they have no need for the ones who remain. This is not as it should be. Let us think it over, and join heartily in the movement for racial uplift. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May, Never Know It Happened A. O.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Umpire Negro National League. By William Narcise The Declamation Contest was, won by Miss Ethelwyn Hunter of Pasadena High School. Before a full house a the A. M. E. Church last Friday night ten representatives of the various high schools declaimed for all they were worth, in an effort to win for his school the beautiful loving cup and a gold medal for himself. The school winning this cup three consecutive years keeps it permanently So far, no one school has won it more than once. Mr. Clarence Brothers of Manual Arts High School, was second, and was awarded a silver medal Other speakers who deserved honorable mention, were: Miss Viola Baucom, of Lincoln High School and Miss Edna Johnson, of Jefferson High School. Previous winners of this contest were: Mr. Wilialyn Stovall, Hollywood High School, 1920; Miss Mildreed Washington, Los Angeles High School 1921; Miss Marjorie Bright, Polytechnic High School, 1922; and Miss Eth elwyn Hunter, Pasadena High School 1923. Miss Benniemal Pryor, student at Lincoln High School, again received four ones in solids. Miss Pryor has been in the Alpha Society (a scholarship organization) for four terms. Miss Mildred Boyd who just entered Lincoln this term has received three ones in solids, missings the Alpha Society by one I. Misses Pryor and Boyd are to be commended on their high scholarship standing. In the Long Beach Jefferson baseball game, last Friday, Jimmy Sims, Long Beach second baseman, played the game of his young life. He was the first man up for the Eastsiders, and he clouted the ball over the fence, he repeated this stunt a couple of times. In addition to his heavy hitting, he played faultless ball at the second sack. Hollywood won the State Meet Saturday, in one of the greatest and hottest contested prep meets, that was ever held in Los Angeles, with 17 1-2 points; closely followed by Sacramento with 15 markers. Archie Woodyard, Jeff's speed marvel, surprised a good many fans, by placing third in the 220 yd. dash, and his failure to place in the century. He was beaten in the 220 by Lee of Franklin, who won the event( and Smith of San Fernando. Woodyard was, without a doubt, off of his game, while Old Dame Fortune favored the winners greatly. Hurlic and Whlizard of Pasadena, ran true to form in the relay, which Pasadena won by yards. They now have the opportunity, for which so many athletes yearn, and that is, a sure trip to Chicago for the National Inter-Seholastic track meet. May 25 and 26. These lads deserve a lot of credit for their excellent achievements. ALPHA PHI ALPHA NOTES The Alpha Delta Chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity concluded its Educational Campaign on last Sunday, May 13, with two well attended meetings. On the afternoon of the above date the Chapter entertained a large gathering of High School and College students with an Educational Fete at the Parish Hall of the Episcopal Church. Nearly every High School in Los Angeles was represented, as well as U. S. C. and S. B. U. C. Pep was plentiful and the various High School and College yells demonstrated an enthusiasm that was gratifying to the onlookers. This coupled with the brilliant address by Dr. Stoner, executive secretary of U. S. C. and the splendid program, contributed to make the affair quite the most unique and enjoyable event witnessed in the city for many moons. Sumptuous—refreshments—were served in banquet style. The many young people seated around the beautifully decorated tables, presented a picture vivid with the spirit of youth, and glowing with the vitality of our youth of today from whence will come our leaders of tomorrow. Beside the addresses of the afternoon the program consisted of the following numbers: Remarks, by the President of Alpha Delta Chapter, M. James McGregor; Cornet Solo, Mr. William Prince, accompanied by Mr. Henry Prince; Piano Solo, Miss Marion Carter; Selection by the Crown City Quartette; Messrs. William Prince, Arthur Prince, William Stoard and Aramis Fouche, Mr. Arthur Prince served as tenant master, Mr. Malcolm H. Patton, Chairman of the Educational Campaign Committee, arranged the affair.

An individual is then capable of pursuing successfully any specialized training for useful en- deavor. ‘There is felt in the business-worl today an increasing need for educated men and women. Training along. one Ine is not sufficient in business to meet the demands of our complex so- ciety. Colleges and business schools and institutions realize this and are adopting ptograms of general know- ledge in connection with the regular work in business theory and practice. It is with the hope of inspiring boys and girls, men and women to ac- quire through the high school and unt- versity and the library, and through contact with the study of their fellow. men, a broad education as the ade- quate preparation for a business ca- reer that this article is written. The prerequisites of a liberal edu- cation call for a knowledge of many subjects, which include science—na- tural, exact, and social; bistory—an- cient, medieval and modern; modern languages; literature; and commerce. Students the world over have pon- dered over difficult, mathematical problems and have been made to think. Attention to the details in- volved In the study of chemistry, phys- ics, and biology, as well as other kindred subjects, shows the import- ance of small things, the value of Te- search work, and the training derived therefrom. Of the social sciences may be mentioned ethics, philosophy, psychology, and sociology. A careful study and application of the principles of these will prove invaluable in bus- iness activity. Executives include in their advance studies, the study of men, in order that they may the bet: ter understand them as_ individuals and groups, and,use this knowledge in the expanding of their commercial in- stitutions. . In the study of history we are able to ascertain the forces which, in other days, actuated men. The continual march of events demands the atten: tion of every wide-awake man and wo- man in business, because they must be able to see clearly ahead and sc adjust their programs and work not only for individual aims, but , for “greatest good to'the greatest nuim- ber.” A knowledge of at least modern for. eign languages is necessary in bust neess. One should learn thoroughly and speak fluently not only his mother tongue, but the language of the people on whom he depends for trade ané business relations. Froeign heads of businesses are constantly consulted and ofttimes the most fatimate busi ness relations result, which demand mutual understanding. Every day we note the rapid ad vancement in industry and commerce | New methods are employed, Conse - quently, many things are accom plishe¢ in a very limited amount of time | Commercial, ‘and international las ’ ghould be studied if the prospectivi business man would be successful, Aspirations, and suffering of th | many peoples of the earth in all age - are made known in literature.

Some one has sald that order‘is the first law of heaven. Through years of training and ac- quisition of general knowledge order has become habitual with those en- tering business. It 1s the manager, and worker who is systematical who orderly in his business activities who evokes the respect fo his associates, and makes a lasting impression on clients. A glance at a man's desk may reveal the kind of business man he is. Another trait displayed in diserim- ination, the selection of what is good from the bad, the ability to recognize the honest.from the dishonest man. ‘This careful and correct selection of- ten means smooth business opera- tions, and permanent service to the worthy. Broadly educated men and women tn business are big enough to, know thdt “no man liveth to himself.” They come in contact with others in the office or shops, \in other business es- tablishments, and appreciate what they learn fronm| the everyday exper- fences, and the| advice given. They do not imitate @lrectly, but assemble the wealth of information, and then make their own conclusions. Such gratitude and appreciation make nob- le lives in the world of business. Imagination or more emphatically, vision, 1s ap asset td any business man or woman, By means of this quality, he is able to see far beyond Present conditions, sometimes dis- turbing and even discouraging and be- hold the ght of a brighter day. There are many things of merit that one with a liberal education and business ability can give for the suc- cess of business enterprise. - This in part, we have endeavored to show through the application of education to business. Efficiency in business is of paramount importance; and it is the efficient and liberally-trained whom we may depend-on. it is the same today as when Victor Hugo said: “He who every, morning plans the transaction of the day and fol- lows out that plan carries a. thread that will guide him through tha-lab- yrinth of the most busy life. ‘The or- derly arrangement of his time is like a ray of light which darts itself thru all his occupations. But where no plan is Inid, where the disposal of time is surrounded merely to the chance of incidents, chaos will soon reign. 4 A In attempting to.interpret the mean- ing of service, we have only te refer - to those who have been instrumental in building up the tremendous bus! ness institutions of which we are proud, and without which we would be hampered greatly in obtaining the / mecessaries of Ife, It is the willing ties to be of service to fellow-men ‘and aid in'the promotion of the public | welfare.

Gray This coming week is music week and all energies will be directed toward the exposition of the beautiful and good in music. There will be over a thousand musical events in this city during the week. There will be recitals and concerts, community sings and plays, and many various forms of musical endeavors. The week starts Saturday with a big parade at night in the downtown section and in which the colored people have been asked to participate. Sunday will be music Sunday. In the afternoon, at the Bowl in Hollywood, there will be a tremendous Community Sing and the race has been asked to contribute a chorus of 500 voices on the program. There will be music everywhere and why? Because the American people are beginning to realize that music is one of the greatest factors in the development of character and good citizenship that they can draw upon. That the refining and enobling influence of music is spreading throughout the country and that the American man is beginning to realize that it is as manly to follow music and the allied arts as it is to engage in any sort of legitimate business. community through having the opportunities and advantages of contact with the world's best as teachers and performers. These advantages are not being grasped in the way they should by our people, but we hope that with the coming season the number of serious students will be increased and the audiences at concerts and rituals will give evidence of the presence of a large number of race people. We earnestly urge that every person in the city will make an effort to hear some kind of music during the coming week and that he or she will pledge support of some racial form of musical endeavor during the year. For after all, the gift of music was given the Negro in greater quantities than any other gift, and he should must and will develop it.

Bilbrew, Directress. wonderful the past year and much good is expected of it in the future along the lines of elevating the minds of our people as well as other races to the real worth and appreciation of good church music. The unusual feature of our choir is the beautiful spirit of brotherhood that exists as one family. We have not been successful in charming those of our own race alone with our work; but the demand from other races and other denominations is so great that we are compelled to refuse calls for Sunday nights especially, that we may worship at home. We do not confine our efforts to singing alone but we are self-supporting and not only that but we find so many ways that we can assist the general church. In our "Out of Debt Rally" we gave over $2,500 and on our recent repair program we paid $600.00. And we intend to give $1000.00 in the again free Rally by Sept. this year. We realize that with music the life of any institution is kept up. No Pastor can serve without it. No church can succeed without it. And we find among the large churches of the city, (and near by towns) the demand for a sacred program not of folk songs alone, (while there is nothing dearer or nothing could possess more rich harmony) yet the appeals come as great when the work of the Master is used as when the folk songs. Again I say this is a wonderful organization. With our sweet toned organ and our very efficient organist Mrs. H. W. Markham to support us, not only with the very excellent selection that she thrills our souls with from time to time but with her sweet spirit of unselfish sacrifice. We have an organization that any director would be profoundly gratified for one that would add to the dignity of any church. Let music charm me last on earth, and greet me first in Heaven. Edited by JOHN A. GRAY THE CHORAL SCHOOL THE BRIDGETOWER TRIO PEOPLES INDEPENDENT CHURCH CHOIR PREEMINENT AMONG LOCAL MUSICAL ORGANIZATION. The Choir of the People's Independent Church of Christ had its beginning on Sunday, October 10, 1915. On that day the church held its first public services in the Odd Fellows Hall, Eighth and Wall Streets, and a call was issued for voluntary singers, to furnish music for the occasion. About seventeen persons came forward and from this beginning, and out of this hand full of volunteers, many of whom had never had any experience in choir work, our present splendid choral organization has been developed, during the short period of seven years. Our first pianist was Mrs. Gerrtund-Brown. Having no church home, the rehearsals were held in the homes of well disposed members without the Graduate Teacher Chicago Musical College services of a director. Finally, the aid of Miss Maude Rosemond was secured as pianist and director and the real and worthwhile work of the organization began, in earnest. She was succeeded by Mrs. C. J. Smith, at the piano and Rev. N. P. Greggs, took charge as director. He has served in that capacity many times since, in the absence of a regular director. Our present pianist is Mrs. Fannie Wilson Benjamin, a product of the Wilkins Piano Academy and a student at U. S. C. She is assisted by Miss Lucile Banton, who is also a product of the Wilkins Piano Academy. Prof. Thomas Johnson, the peer of directors, is directing their musical work and study. The choir, although, one of the youngest in the city, has developed into a formidable contender for leadership. It has a membership of sixty-five.

Through the never tiring and faithful support of our church membership and under the leadership of our Director, accompanied by our Pianist, and the spiritual guidance of our beloved Pastor, Rev. N. P. Greggs, we are aspiring to great things, spiritually and musically, in the future. The Sunday morning service was of the regular enthusiastic nature. The members are apparently receiving great blessings. It is indeed a spiritual pleasure to worship at Independent. CLAUD V. PITTS VOCAL INSTRUCTOR Pupil of Prof. Manuel Sanchez De Lara—Director, De Lara Grand Opera. STUDIO: 1242 St. Mariquita Ave. PHONE: West 3650 THE VIOLIN History The Violin is a flift to the world from the darker race, and it was in India, that the art of inciting vibration of strings, by means of a bow, was first discovered, and our present day violin had its origin in Ceylon. The first violin was invented by a Ceylon King, (name unknown) who reigned 5000 B. C. This original instrument is now held as a relic, in the National Museum, at Leipzig, Germany. Shortly before the Mohammedan invasion, a rude example of this original was brought to Arabia, and then on to Europe after the crushers. Still later the primitive instrument was recovered and brought into Germany, where it is today. Qualifications With the essence of time and education, it has developed from a onestring instrument, into our present-day violin, the Cremona, heading the list in valuation. Stradivarius, second; Amatt, third and Guarnerious, fourth. This valuation nad rareness is decided by three qualifications: Quality of wood; seasoning of wood; skill in shape and contour. These three qualities combined in the most artistic and scientific manner, best suited for richness of tone production, is what gives to us a rare and valuable violin. Technical Scope Violin is considered the most perfect of musical instruments; first, because of its capabilities of rich tone and expression; second, because of its unlimited technical resources, resulting from the fact that. ALL the tones fo any scale can be accurately produced, in perfect intonation, adding to this, every intermediate semitone, in a compass of four and one half octaves, and this compass may be indefinitely extended higher and higher by touching the strings lightly, namely, what is known as Harmonics. These astounding accomplishments rest entirely with the skill of the player. The greatest means of cultivating an ear for melody, both in player and hearer, is a violin. For this reason violin was selected to head and to exclusively lead All orchestral music, by Cultivation of Voice By Mayme Wiley Lowe The acquisition of the art of singing ought to go hand in hand with the other branches of education, for it is a most important aid to culture, and singing has a peculiar power of prifying and elevating he mind. All representations of Heavenly bliss refer largely to singing and music. Rochlitz, the founder of musical criticism, thought that music must be the proper language of Heaven as common to all. It was music that first mightly stirred the souls of men. The most important point in the art of singing is correct breathing, the student must above all clearly distinguish between superficial and deep breathing, and avoid the former, excepting the occasional use of the natural light breath, which requires no especial study for its acquisition. In relation to the human voice, nearly all the musical knowledge is obtained through the cultivation of the ear. It is so much an ear process that little heed is given. It is interesting to find that the cause of the phenomenon of voice is the little vowel, which is the essence of every word. This vowel, together with a puff of air, is the only means of bringing the delicate vocal bands together, and holding them approximated long enough to sustain either a spoken or singing tone. Monteverde, and it is an acknowledged fact that there is no greater cultivation for ear and melody than orchestral research and practice. Spiritual Resources. From the most earliest time, string instruments have been the favorites for soul touching music, and the violin offers the widest scope of all string instruments to truly express the player's soul and inspiration, because of its unlimited octave heights and tone qualities. All the vast richness of sense citation, all the definiteness of expression, all the magic of tone key, all are yours with a violin, combined with endless sources of the human imagination. In fact, combining all violin is a noble instrument. A gift of God. An art of God, and therefore it is true expression of the soul. Result Through the medium of a violin, if the players' soul be one of character, tenderness, sentiment, truth and love, combined with the vital quality of intelligence and patience that is required to acquire and fully possess the technical knowledge of this intricate instrument, he or she will produce music, full of virtuous expression, that will set the souls of humans in unison and communion with the souls of the spirits of Heaven.

P There is going to be a reck- oning day in this man’s town at no far distant date. And it will be truly a fact which Congressman Dyer shouted, when he said some of the min- isters must get right with God. Take the ministry as a whole of Los Angeles, it’s all right. but there are some who as it were, stand in high places and have an exalted opinion of themselves, who are about as small as it is possible for them to be. They not only fail to function in progressive move- ments but stoop to some of the lowest levels to stifle meritori- ous efforts which are often put forth at a sacrifice by forces which have made it possible for this same ministry to occu- py the position which they MIS-REPRESENT in this baili- wick. We are wise to every sneaking move of this species ahd while we are not posing as a prophet, but we are going to venture the assertion that it is no far distant date when this gentry will be seen reaching for their hats. r The Negro Press of the country mourns the passing-of ‘that energetic, eloquent, fear- less advocate and late owner and editor of the Kansas City Sun—Nelson Crews. His life was one of action and his voice rang out at all times for and on behalf of justice for his race. Peace be to his ashes. John Mitchel, veteran journ- alist, leading financier and bus- iness man has the sympathy of the craft and people generally in the trials through which he is now passing. There are very few but who have the utmost conifidence in his integrity and believe him to be the victim of purely untoward circumstanees and hope that the higher courts to which he has appealed will right the wrongs and give him af ultimate vindication. - THE HIT DOG HOWLS. +e American Civil Liberties Union of New York has point- ed out that two-thirds of the tarrings and featherings and about one-half of the lynchings for last year were those of the white race. This is a hopeful sign. What do we mean by such a statement? This: so long as only Negroes were lynched the whites were indif- ferent, but now that someone else’s ox is gored, the whites are beginning to wake up. For instance, labor has been very cold to pleas of the lynch- ed Negro group. It has been difficult to get organized labor to take a public position. It even turned down a resolution denouncing the Ku Klux Klan at the American Federation of Labor:Convention last year. But just so soon as McGregor, a white ‘railroad worker in Harrison, Arkansas, was lynch- ed, Mr. Gompers and the Am- erican Federation of Labor started out to raise three mil- ten dolars to suppress lynch- ra The same is true of the Jews and Irish Catholics. So long as the Ku Klux Klan carried on depredations against the Ne- gro only, just so long were both eee But so soon as a few were flogged--and some Jews. Laas both got to. out the Kluxers. MH is fortunate thst no group 4m society may continue to suf. fer from any malady which will not eventually strike the other groups. Crime germs, like disease germs, know no race, creed, color, or state lines. The tubercular Negro today will leave a tubercular white man beside him tomorrow. The thief who robs the poor Negro ‘will hold up the white man ere long. » The South — disfranchised the Negro and it was also the last section to grant political rights to white women. It kept the Negro in ignorance _ by segregatipn and discrimination, but the white children of the South also suffered and paid. ‘A double school system is too expensive, so the school fund was divided, the whites get- ting the lion’s share, but both white and black getting too lit- tle!” The result is that the Ne- groes in every northern state, where the schools are mixed, have less illiteracy than the whites in most of the Southern states. To keep the Negro down the South has stayed in the ditch. Its short-sightedness has cost cost it a taste of civilization. It lags behind, were it tries to keep the Negro. It is suffering from its own folly by which it has been struck. Like a hit dog it howls, and it must con- tinue to be hit and to howl un- til it removes the stone which is striking. BE NATURAL One of the little habits that’s be coming very serious and threatens to ruin many of our young girls. ts the use of too much paint and powder.on their faces. It makes one look ridiew lous and causes the public to mis judge many of them who are Just try ing to keep up with the style, Every time we buy preparations concocted from lye, vitriol, and other caustic acids, forthe piirpose ol bleaching and disfiguring our natura complexion, it is a tacit admission. by us of what the white man has had in his head for years; that the Negro is inferior because he, himself, is ashamed of his color: and every time We purchase oxmarrow, glue and other sticky substances, for the pur. pose of making our hair straight, we doubly affirm. the contention of our white brother ts true. This blind.

The Impriaonment of Editor John Mitchell, Jr., the veteran Editor of the Richmond Planet. ts one of the most regrettable incidents that we have re: cently encountered. In the last Pres: {dental election, it was Hon. Mitchell who ran up the Republican ticket for Governor of Virginfa. From that time he has been marked by a few race haters and enemies among our own group that has caused this condition to come In the life of one of the best prepared men of the rcae—one who has met the torch and the mob and has stood out against the wrongs and inhuman treatment of the Black Man in America. We do trust he may be able to clear himself of all accusa- tions and be restored to the confidence of the people he has learned to love, News contes that the city of Denver has gone)Democratic in the selection of Hon. Ben Stapleton as Mayor to succeed Mayor Baily. Under the pres: ent Mayor. the race received many ood positions in the City Hall and County Court House, as Clerks and stenographers.

REASON TOGETHER When in the beginning man's@¢sen ses were in the embryonic stage th sense to reason stood out with dof inant force as the line of demnarkatior between him and the brute. With thi cumulative sense man has rapid) advanced through reasoning, down th ages of time, from the parent col at the beginning; to the progressec form of mentality of today, gaining his present status only through ages of indomitable effort and struggles tn his varied environments, in wresting from the storehouse of knowledge it: locked and guarded secrets. ‘This ability to reason in the face of stern necessity, when mankind was young fare the prime factors that mark the grades of developmen t of different racial groupsef todya. The ratio of progression of each being in propor tion to the needed efforts put forth in gaining from nature's bosom his needs and requirements of life, Where na ture and climatic conditions had heen prodigous and bountitul in supplying the wants of life to. her children; “with necessity lacking” the lessons of life's stern school were not readily Jearned, ax in other zones where con: ditions were more favorable and the teacher of life was constantly tutor ing her children through grim neces. sity and experience in the gaining by reason of their wants and needs, Thus we witness different racial groups of nien In the sliding seale of life, from the arrested development of man. from the zone where nature supplied all his wants, to the developed form of mentality of today.

These three semi-circular canals shaped like halt-pretzels are placed at right ‘angles to each other. One 1s horizontal, one points east and west, and the other points north and south. Fach one is hollowed out and acts in human and animal heads much as the stabilizer of an aeroplane does. They keep men from falling, balance birds and enable fish to preserve thelr equl- Moria. ‘These three half-circle canals are located behind the ear to prevent gid: dines, vertigoes and loss of balance. They ‘are actually meters to show which way—not the wind, but gravity pulls. Recent experiments on the ear make it plain that even the dizziness of high blood pressure, heart strain nad kidney disease are iraceable ind: actly to the vesgibule of this organ which contains the semi-circular sta- bilizers. This indicates that in sca-sickness, vertigo and other kinds of dizziness, the phystoiogy and the anatomy of the ear labyrinth is more or less’ con- cerned, What investigation Proves — Man lives in a large fashion upon two score or more senses, stich as muscle, touch, heat, cold, pain, vision, hearing, taste, hunger, sinell, and par- {ticularly this kense of equilibrium and position in space. A perfrct balance, such as a flagpole painter or a struc: tural iron worker maintains, — is brought about by harmony of action between several senses such as the muscle sense, sight and this statie sense which fs under consideration, | Interference, therefore, with any of this triad will Dring to pags sort of dizziness. ‘The worst types, however, are associated with gisease and de- formity of, or accident to the semi circular pretzels th the ear labyrinth Dizziness, seasickness or vertigo spells obstruction or disturbance ot the usaal relations and sensation’ | which keep the human fluids balanced Jagainst the force of gravitation and fof life. In 1860, Professor Meniere,. of Paris, was the, frat definitely to as sociate one kind ‘of falling disease or vertigo with the semb-circular canals. |Since then it has been known that the statie sense, the sensation of equilib rium, rests In that place. Whenever any malady, injury or birth condition ‘irritates this vestibule of the ear, ‘some kind of dizziness occurs. On [the other hand, no matter how severe [a disorder may affect the human form divine, If ft falls to interfere with the even tenor of these canals, no verti £0 appears How Lymph Acts. A few persons may inherit or ac ‘quire sich unadaptable semi-circular Canals that the coustant sway and mo- ‘tion ofjan ocean steamship will dis rupt the fixed finid relationship in this labyrinth, Even the roll of a ‘street car oF railroad train may cause jit. The upshot is seasickness and other “vertiginus” attacks. So. im: ‘portant have these inner car canals hecome in their association with diz- ‘ziness that some of the leading medi: cal colleges have created special de partments whbre special tests. are Carried on to determine the state of health of thls static sense The priaeipte underlying these tests ‘fs to find the condition and the move ‘ment of the lymph in the hollow half pretzels, When the lymph passes in a elven direction, “nysiagmus” or a Nibratory twitch to the eres cccurs, Mirttzo ie folt and the individec! fecle Tike talling. "The way the Iymph is set In motion fis mnch the same as children do. spin around ani see how dizzy you feel.” ‘The doctor gives the patient a fow twists on a revolving stool. ‘The normal effects are known and devia Cons from. them give a diagnosis. When you aré thus spun to the left. you first féel It and then you soon do nat know yon are turning. because the lymph and fluid in the east and west canal catches up. ‘When the spinning motion is stop: ped, the lympit continues to move, and you feel as if you are heiag whirled the wrong way, though you are stock Win.” Similar sensations of falling in a horizontal plane have to do with the horizontal canals. The sensa ion in a rising elevator or a rapid de: Scent concerns the perpendicular can als. The impulse to throw yourscit from a high place is supposed to be the pull of gravitation upon the lymph in the canals. Sea'sickness involves first one sem circular canal and then another. One reason that purgatives help to prevent sea sickness is that the excess of lymph and fluid in the canals tx re: duced toa minimum. Deaf and dumb people do not become. seasick. ani- mals otherwise easily madey seasick, are unaffected when made deat Small children seldom become seasick? Decause the vestibule of the car is very small, Sea-sickness certainly seems to be due to an ear condition.

A reading by Mrs. Edna Hill. A mixed quartette composed of Mrs. Flora Alexander, Miss Louise Beavers, Mr. Thomas Johnson and Mr. George Johnson, who sang "Sweet and Low." A violin solo by Willie Starks. A reading "How a Mother's Prayer was Answered," by Mrs. George Beavers, Jr. A contralto solo by Mrs. Naomi Farr. The address of the evening by Mrs. Bessie Prentice. A duet "Whispering Hill," by Mesdames F. Alexander and Olive Hill. The program was indeed an enjoyable one. The first fruits of the Sunday School membership campaign are certainly ripening. Our new Sunday School Hall will hardly be large enough to seat our new members. WALL ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH— East 8th and Wall Streets. Our services were excellent on the first Lord's Day this month. Rev. Cothran preached in the evening—both sermons were fine. One came forward and made the good confession. Rev. Cothran's subjects were: "The Gospel, the Power of God unto Salvation." Condition faith in Christ. Text Romans 1:16. Lord's day, May 13th. Being Mother's Day our sermon was taken from Moses and Samuel's mothers. Our service was good throut the day. We baptised one candidate at the First Christian. At one p. m. Our work is doing fine. We are working with a view of having a church home. A place to house our little flock. We are deeply in earnest and we are greatly encouraged. We welcome all who would be pleased to worship with us. Elders Hollins, Booth and Hoppeg. ST. PAUL A. M. E. CHURCH— Talk is cheap stuff but money buys the land. Redlands is a delightful little city with great possibilities for our people who may avail themselves of the possibilities. Many of our p ple who are in the large cities doing little, or nothing should investigate these opportunities and be convinced for themselves. With a Central Depot by the Southern Pacific R. R. Co. puts Redlands in a very happy mood and on the main line. We have two splendid churches, Methodist and Baptist, both doing a splendid work for this community. Thursday evening was a great social feature. At the new dining hall of the A. M. E. Church which has just been finished at a cost of more than three hundred dollars, and all paid for. This church and congregation is taking on new spiritual life, which is so badly needed. The revival was a source of great help. Rev. Edwards and wife, with their delegates are getting ready for the District Conference and Sunday School Convention which will convene in Watts at Grants Chapel A. M. E. Church 23-24 inst. Sunday was a great day in this local Church. The Mothers day program was fittingly observed, Mrs. Lola Beal and others are due much credit for rendering of the program. At the conclusion of the services seven persons connected with the church, two being converts. WEST SIDE MISSION A. M. E. CHURCH West 36th Street Major G. W. Piroleau, Pastor Last Sunday was a great day of service at the Mission. Seventy-two children present to honor their Mothers and show them how they appreciate the privilege of a good Sunday School. The contribution was way above the average and it is refreshing to learn that the Sunday School of the Mission will assume the balance of the debt on the pews. The morning service was largely attended by earnest and enthusiastic worshippers. One addition to the membership. At 3:00 p. m. Presiding Elder Washington conducted a splendid sermon which made the hearts of the people rejoice. At the evening service local preacher William Washington preached acceptably to a nice congregation. The plastering will be finished this week. We will tell you how it was done in our next. Come to the Mission. FIRST Aa M. E. CHURCH— Eighth and Avenue. Rev. A. Milton Ward, Minister Pastor Ward will occupy his pulpit in historic Eighth and Towne Avenue First A. M. E. Church Sunday at 11:00 a. m. Sunday night there is to be a thirty minutes organ recital and the senior chair will lead the congregation in singing familiar old hymns. Sunday will be our annual rally day; and the pastor and trustees are asking for $4,000.00 to remodel the parsonage and pay on our bonded debt. Every loyal member will do his bit. Every club is asked to report at the 11: a. m. and at the 7:30 o'clock services. The thermometer will begin to rise on each side when the first two clubs report. Interesting services were held on last Sunday. Rev. Ward occupied his pulpit at 11:00 a. m. paying a high tribute to "Mothers." Both choirs sang appropriate music and Mrs. Emma Smith thrilled the great audience with a beautiful solo 'Mother O'Mine.' There were four accessions to the membership of the church including one young woman convert. A large gathering of mothers were entertained and served refreshments by the young people of the church prior to the evening services on Sunday evening. An excellent program took the place of the sermon on Sunday night. It was under the auspices of the A. C. E. League, A. A. Thomas, president. Miss Marguerite James presided. Lawyer W. O. Tyler was the principal speaker; and his address on "Mothers" was par excellent. Others who played well their part in the excellent program were Miss Mamie Cox, Miss Anita Boyden and Mr. Charles Banks. Rev. Ward conducted the devotional exercises and the choir sang by special request songs our mothers used to sing in praise of God. Services were largely attended and there were many prominent-visitors. Supt. Orma Stratton and the Sunday School stopped the trip to Palestine long enough last Sunday to pay a timely tribute to "Mothers," in a very fine program conducted by Miss Isaore Stewart. FIRST A. M. E. E. ZION CHURCH—Corner Pico and Paloma Streets. Rev. W. E. Shaw, Pastor. Residence 1217 Paloma Street. No mother that the world has ever known could encourage and inspire our hearts on Mother's Day, more so than that beautiful character, Mary, the mother of Jesus. Rev. Shaw's message to the mother of our day vibrated with truth and sound doctrine as he preached the word of God from John 19th: 25 verse. God bless Mother's Day and may it long be remembered by generations yet to come. Rev. Shaw preached a glorious sermon to every mother. It softened the hardest heart and stirred up fondest memories. Prof. Bynum and choir lived up to their high standard of singing and furnished good music all day. They also furnished the program for the evening service which was excellent. On next Sunday, May 20th Rev. Shaw will preach at both services. Hear him. Don't fail to attend the greatest debate ever held in the city. A popular subject—"Is The World Growing Better?" Affirmative—Prof. J. W. Johnson and Attorney M. H. Broyles. Negative—Rev. Dr. R. N. Holt and Mr. Claude E. McKinney. This church May 29th under the auspices of the Brotherhood.

Robert House, Pastor. Sunday School 9:30 a. m. Preaching 11:00 a. m. Subject. "The Church A Divine Institution." Preaching at 8:00 p. m. Subject, "Have Your Fare in Hand." Mothers Day services were very enjoyable with us during the entire day, the aged mothers enjoying the feast prepared and served them by the Ladies of the Missionary Society. Our Rally closed with a decided success. We asked for the modest sum. $450. We collected nearly $500, all of which we give God the praise. We are very grateful to all who assisted us in any way. Come, you are welcome to worship with us. Last Sunday was a banner day. We had several new comers in the Bible School and also in the regular services both morning and night. Brother Williams, the acting Minister, filled the pulpit both services. At 11:00 o'clock, he spoke from this subject, and when Peter was come to himself, he said. Now I know of a surety, that the Lord hath sent his Angel and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews. Theme: "God's Way," Acts 12:11. And at night he spoke from this subject, "And he commanded the chario to stand still; and they went down both Philip and the Eunuch; and he baptized him. Theme: Baptism. These sermons were indeed helpful and all who heard them were wonderfully benefitted. Services for next Lord's day as usual. Bible School at 9:45 a.m. Preaching at 11:00 a.m. Young People's Society at 7:00 p.m. and preaching at 8:00 p.m. Prayer meeting on Thursday evening from 8:00 to 9:00 p.m. The public always invited. Come you will find a friendly welcome. Bring your friends. BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH—Services in the Y. M. C. A. Corner of Ninth and Hemlock Sts. We observed "Mothers Day" last Sunday and had a blessed time throughout. Our Sunday School was well attended despite the fact of illness among some of our families. The lesson was helpfully discussed, and all were benefited. White and Red Carnations were very much in evidence. Mrs. Alice Johnson did most gracefully the decorating of each member and visitor. Mrs. Geneva Jones read a delightful paper on Mothers Day, and her daughter Miss E. Jones, was at her best in a very appropriate Solo. At the time for the sermon Dr. Prowd announced GENESIS 3:29 "She was the Mother of all Living." It surely was a surprise to listen to the other side of life and character of dear old Mother Eve. God certainly did open our eyes to see some new things concerning this first lady of our earth. The people went away with higher views of womanhood. The B. Y. P. U. was easily conducted by Y. Superintendent Dr. Evans, the President being away. At night we observed the Lord's Supper and again experienced a blessed season of refreshing from The Master. Our Church extends the hand of welcome, but requests that you come graveyal. THE OLD GOSPEL PREACHED HERE! ST.

Lesa than two years ago—in Octo ber, iBie tro young Los Angele: men, L. R. Ingram and Fitzhugh L Banks, organized the Eastside Realt} Company, and “hung out their shin gle” at 1437 Central Avenue, corner of Clanton, in a six by ten real estate “eabin.” Shortly afterward Messr3 Banks and Ingram were joined by O L, Banks, as third member of the firm. “(The Eastside Realty Company now cénsists of Mr. F, EL. Banks, President, Mr. L. R. Ingram, Secretary, and Mr. 0. L. Banks, Treasurer A few weeks ago the company moved into new quarters at the same address—a_ spacious, high-ceilinged, cak-paneled office, handsomely _ fur. nished in golden oak, and equipped with all the very latest appliances in office equipment, that go to make ‘for efficiency in business management. In short, the “new home” of the East- side Realty Compagy is distinctly metropolitan ‘in every way, and would do credit to Broadway or Spring St. ‘The “field equipment” of the com- pany includes three late-model tour- ing cars, for the accomodation of the public. “Courtesy and tact in dealing with our people, together with strict hon- esty and accuracy as to details in handling the business of our clients, has won for us the confidence and patronage of the public,” said Mr. In- gram, after acknowledging, with char- acteristic modesty, our tribute to his splendid enterprisé. “This has not been easily or quickly done, for the general attitude of the Colored public toward the Colored business man is one of distrust, partly justified by un- fortunate experiences in the past. “But twentieth century methods win. I bad an unusual opportunity to study the white man’s methods of business efficiency first hand, as an employee of the American Raliway Company at El Paso, Texas, and I am endeavoring. with the co-operation of my valued associates, to prove that a Negro business, conducted by twenti- eth century methods , can progress just as rapidly and achieve as signal success, in proportion to the limited capital of the Negro people, as any white business enterprise. | “We are now specializing in sub- divisions, almost entirely. I believe I can say, without fear of contradic- tion, that we are the pioneers in Southern California in this line of real estate endeavor. The importance of this opportunity—an opportunity to pick and choose their home and busi- ness-sites from valuable and desirable tracts of land, without fear of dis- crimination—is hardly yet apparent to our people, but they are rapidly awak- ening to the value of this privilege which has hitherto been the privilege of the white man, “Iam free to say that we were dis- tinctly successful.in our first essay of this kind—the placing on the market of the Tract known as Central Avenue Gardens. Practically every lot sold within a phenomenally short time, to responsible persons who, I am glad to state, are ,establishing a record for Promptness and good faith in taking care of the obligation they assumed. “An evidence more convincing than any words I might say, is the fact that one of the greatest banking in- stitutions in California, with resourc- es of more than $250,000,000 has now given into our bands for sale to our people, a tract of land which they own, located in the midst of the most active industrial and residential de- velopment, in the City and County of ‘Los Angeles. I refer to the Central Avenue Subdivision, thrown open to the public by us a few weeks ago. “There has been much said, pro and, con, regarding this tract, and I take this occasion to state to the public that we invite, or, going further—we solicit, the most thorough personal in- vestigation into this proposition, both as to the intrinsic value of what we offer, and our methods of handling estboss sertaining, (0 the same.” Eminently pradtical business man as he is, paradoxical as it may seem, Mr. Ingram is an idealist and a dream: er. ‘The proof of the first assertion is hig statement that the pride he takes in the suecess of the Eastside Realty Company—which he modestly char- acterizes as “the first step’— is not mere personal vainglory, nor money- lust, but has a deeperiaid base in a desire to make the road smoother for those. who will come after him. Every step toward winning the con- fidence and good will of the Colored public, commanding the respect and esteem of the white public, will have “a far-reaching psychological effect in making future commercial effort by those of our group more easy of ac- com) t, and the youth of this ‘will not be as a rule, re- stricted to menial or manual ° labor, merpe cot the business world open to each -and- very: one, according fhe meneure of bis ‘sili is Mr- Ingram’s ideal; his ig of & great Negro financial in- Giation inthe. future, which — will place capital at the command of our swithout-recourse to the white ian This “dream”, will undoubtedly SCHOLARSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT ARSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT ‘ered Wonten’s Clubs is ofteting its a aS o Seet Mibcholatabip Prise of itty Dol Pease east eae a coe dices session in Sam Diego. pith prise money ‘will be paid direct- y “the school or college which the es rates ee enti ‘Btate, bat is open ni-iis Sward is based ship and character.

SIMMS REPORTS OVER: FIFTY THOUSAND SHARES---CAPITAL STOCK---SOLD By: JOHN EMERY PROWD The Verdun Mining and Leasing Company has one of the richest hills that has ever been discovered in’ the mining section of Tuolumne County, where there are no fewer than 10 producing mines, each within a mile of one another. As proof of the belief in the value of the mine, at great cost secured the services of Mr A. E. Sedgwick. a Mining and Civil Engineer of Los An- seles, Calif, and at present instructor in the University of Southern Cali- fornia, to go over the property for the purpose of making a report, not only for the stockholders, but also for the benefit of the public, who always de- sire a. statement or opinion of an au- thority on such matters, His report in part folows: , ORE DEPOSIT “The ore deposft ix found along the footwall of an intrusion of Diabase in the Calaveras Formation. This intru. sion is Sv feet thick It bears nearly east and west and dips 60 deg. north. scribed is pertinent to the formatioz funder consideration. “The igneous intrusion of Diabase traversing the Verdun and Brown Bird claims is deep seated and prob ably connects with the underlying ig neous batholith, an indication of great depth-to the vein. The thermal solutions ascended along the walls of this intrusion, depositing precious minerals along their course and alter. ing the wall rock of the lesser resist. ing Calaveras formation for some dis. tance out from the intrusion. “The amount or degree of replace- ment decreases with the distance away from the intrusidn, being great: er at the contact and usually incon- seqquential a few feet away from it. The process of replacement is one in- volving chemical reactions of the al kaline gold-bearing solutions. During these reactions, the character of the solvent is changed, with the result that the gold is deposited as the re- action occara.

The gulch below this in- trusion shows evidence of having been worked for placer deposits. The gul- leys across the gulch leading into it show no evidence of placer workings indicating that the values recovered from the placer workings must have come from the side of the hill upon which these claims rest and. probably. “Sulphide croppings: along the strike of the vein indicate that the erosion of this hill has been more rapid than the oxidation, so that there in no oxidized zone of any extent and fied as a Sulphide Ore. “Throughout the Mother Lode in the sulphide zone the precious metals have been deposited by ascending thermal solutions. Thesa solutions contain a great deal of silica with les- ser amounts of carbon dioxide, alkal- ine carbonates and hydrogen sul- phides. The gold in this solution waa probably dilssoived in the alkaline sulphides. “This explains the presence of gold next to the footwall of the intrusion of Diabase and the decrease in value away from the intrusion. ‘The width of the zone of replace. ment varies from a few inches to a few feet, Where it is a few feet wide it would be called an “ore chute", provided precious metals were de posited in the replacement zone. Where it is but a few inches wide, it would be called a “lead” and would be followed to the point where it op- “ned up again into another ore chute. “Differential movements along the walls of the intrusion and the Cala- veras formation fractured the walls along the contact. giving freer access to the thermal solutions with conse: quent enlargement of the zone of re- placement, This also has a decided twaring on the location and size of the ore chute. “This explanation shows why the ore cbute was found and should be pursued along the contact of the Dia. basic intrusion and the Calaveras formation. The theory is also borne out by the facts established by the de- velopment work on the property.” pe bo eee ee ee a ae = ae 8 gi he eatin. .: | Pe ge Eee, 5 i Pe dea ae aE | ane Wa tt } , aa ae i mans 4 me eee _ ee eee mmr” mapa! ca. , > 4 ime. . oa) ss Se ae Ze ee a Aa Be!

Four 'gamples taken from the bottom of the shaft assayed [ess than $1.00 each. | The reason for this variation in value is probably due to the fact that eae bottom of the shaft is about 20 feet from the Jiabasic intrusion and out of the ore chute, while the top of the shaft, being at the contact of the intrusion, was In the ore chute. A eross cut fron the 100-foot level to the diabasic intrusion ‘will prove or disprove this theory. “The shaft is 4 feet by 7 fect, the 7-foot dimension being parallel to the dike. It is well timbered and equip: red with a sal gasoline hoist and bucket sunny. to sink 250 to 300 feet. fe “A tupnel 140 feet long has been driver “nto the butte starting in the serpentine, passing through the gouge ‘and some limestone and fnto the Cal- averas formation.

Along the strike of the vein upon the surface the outcrops were weathered and did not represent con- ditions that would be found in depth and, therefore, were not sampled. “The ore dips away from the shaft so that the lower portion of the: shaft was out of the ofe chute The | shaft was heavily timBered and | ged and filled behind the lagging so that the walls of the shaft could not | be uficovered, except at considerable expense, therefore it was ‘impracti- cable to try to sample the shaft | throughout its depth, and unnecessary so long as it was clear that the low- er portion of the shaft was not in the ore chute. “A portion of the dump represent. ing about the first 35 feet of the shaft was trenched from top to bottom and sampled. This sample was brought to Los Angeles and taken to John ‘Herman, a commercial assayer. At- ter being quartered down assays were made by Mr. Herman and by us. We made two assays, one gave $17.60 and the other $18.00. . Mr. Herman reports $18.60, Therefore, it is safe to. as- gume that thé average value of the first 35 feet of shaft over a width of 4 feet is $18.00. “This is a remarkable showing. far aboye the average values found over suct a width on the Mother Lode, and it must not be expected -that such | values will persist. It can be consid: ered an indication of good values along the contact of the diabasic in- trusion and the Calaveras formation. “The reports from pocket hunters that much free gold has been washed from the surface on the strike of the vein and the indications of extensive placer work in the gulch beloy. the vein, add strength to the probabilities of an ore chute along the contact.” Mr, J.

The spiritual power of the Lord was wonderfully manifested upon those present. The large number of visitors expressed their appreciation of the meeting. The Endeavor was very interesting, impressive and the attendance increased.

It being Communion Sunday, and Anniversary Day, as well the spirit of worship ran high and 332 communicants answered the invitation. Good music both vocal and instrumental characterized the day, and greatly aided in the success of the services. Next Sunday is Mother's Day and seats will be at a premium.

Prowd, Pastor We had good services all day last Sunday. The Lesson in the Sunday School was heartily enjoyed by all. New scholars and visitors were cordially received. At the 11 o'clock service Dr. Prowd preached from Habakkuk 3.18. "Yet I will repose." It was plainly shown that though the Christian be stript of all blessings, and bereft of relatives and friends, yet one stronghold remains unshaken into which he can run and find comfort. God never deserts His children. The B. Y. P. U. was easily conducted by our President Mr. John E. Prowd assisted by others. At night the subject was that of the downfall of Saul, the first King of Israel. The text was 1 Samuel 15:23. Because thon hast rejected the word of the Lord. He hath also rejected thee from being King." It was a serious presentation of the truth, and all listened with marked attention.

Cothram, who was to preach at the 11:00 o'clock hour was unable to be with us as he reported. But would preach for us at 11:00 a.m. on the third Sunday in May. So Rev. Bro. L. J. Williams, who is doing the preaching at this time brought to our attention two very helpful messages. At 11:00 o'clock he spoke from the subject, I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth: to the Jew first and also to the Greek, proving to us that a Christian is not ashamed to wear Christ's name. And at night he took for his text the Second chapter of the Book Phil, and the 9th verse. "Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: These Two sermons stirred the whole congregation.

THE INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST Cor. 18th and Paloma Sts. Rev. N. P. Greggs, Pastor The splendid message delivered by the pastor last Sunday morning aroused great religious enthusiasm in the large congregation which had gathered to worship. "Our offering to God" was the general theme of the sermon. The spirit in which our offering is made is the important thing, is a lasting thought to all who heard. Miss Banton was the morning soloist and Mr. J. H. Shackelford, Supt. of the S. S. W. was the first speaker of the Sunday School Membership Campaign which has been launched for some time. He spoke Sunday morning. The Second Quarterly Convocation which convened Wednesday, May 2, 1923, was one of the best which has ever met. $1,439.65 was the amount reported in the combined treasures of the various church auxiliaries. In the general church treasury there was reported $7,715.64. Many excellent reports were submitted. The pipe organ which is to be installed as soon as the reconstruction of the church is completed will be the greatest in any colored church west of the Rockies.

(Taken from New York Call) Six years ago the Messenger and it editors astonished America with thet radical message of economic emanch pation for the Negro through oresr, ized labor and Socialism. Priog advent no hint of the Jato) ‘of tbe Negro problem Was EY Net gro leaders. Why? Bécause of the eganomic control which the Soduairin and financial capitalists maintaine over them as a result of contributions which they made to Negro schools, churches and publications. ; ‘As a result of the Messenger’s, mer- ciless and withering criticism ‘of white and Negro reactionaries, of the advocacy of the cause of a new social order, of its uncompromising policy on the race and labor issues, the cir- culation shot up to 26,000 within a period of six months. During the World War the. Messen- ger stood out boldly and laid bare Woodrow Wilson's stark hyprocrisy that the United States was fighting to “make the world safe for democracy,” on account of which it was summarily denied second-class mailing privilege. a heavy financial handicap and bur den which the radical and liberal la bor unions helped to bear. No Negro:leaders spffered or sac tified with so consuming and unself ish a spirit of devotion to the great principles of working-class solidarity and race justice than did A. Philir Randolph and Chandler Owen, the ed itors. . In Cleveland they “were arrested while speaking for the Socialist party and held without bail for several days. Instead of eing dismayed they fought on with increasing vigor and deter mination to awaken the sleeping masses of black workers to a con scious realization of their class in: terest. The Messenger has waged an unre- lenting war in the interest of the un conditional release of political and class war prisoners. 7 No publication has been more per- sistent and scathing in denoucing as a menace to democracy ard the Amer- ican labor movement the rising tide of anti-Semitism in America. | Perhaps one of the most valiant and outspoken organs in America in the, interest of the right of the Russian people to determine their own form of government, to the right of recognl- tion by America, in the interest of re- lief to famine-stricken Russia, has been the Messenger and its editors. Through the files of the Messenger may be found ap unceasing nad unre- mitting ery against the utter inhu- manity of Great Britian and Ireland. Tt is a matter of record that the ed- itors were the first to sound a no! of, warning against the Klan, expreak ing it throngh ‘an international mass meeting in 1919. Jews, Catholics, Ne- groes and labor were represented_in that. meeting. The Messenger fous the black Klan, too, as it wai sented by Marcus Garvey, just as the ginssconsclous Italian workers are| jghting the Fascist! in America. The fight so stirred the Klan that it sent ‘A. Philip Randolph a “human hand,” an incident that shocked the nation. ‘The Post Pffice and the United States. Department of Justice said that it was the first case in history. that a part of 3 human body had been sent through the mails. ‘The first Socialist branch among Negroes ‘was organized by A. Philip Randolph and Chandler Owen, This work thé Negro Communists have done their utmost to destroy. Just as the Rand School, The New York Call, the Workers’ Defense Committee, the. Ctvil_ Liberties Union, the Jewish Daily Forward, the Workman's Circle, the. Socialist “and labor leaders have been misrepresented and Hed upon. yo ltnve the editors of the Messenger | been Ubelled. .

A REASONABLE AND WORTH WHILE TASK Assumed by Neare Bantlate The suggestion made te the Con- ference of Ministers and Laymen held in Memphis, Tennessee, April 3, Dr. Williams, President, of our Nation- al Baptist Convention, to raise $100, 000 this year for work of the National Baptist Convention fairly electrified that-great gathering? It was received im soberness and by thoughfful Bap- tists whose eager facem told that the importance of the occasion had reached their souls. They seemed ashamed of so much denominational big talk and so little accomplishment. The men and women who met there on that day were far visioned Bap tists, who determined under God to overcome the little done and the vast undone by helping raise the $100,000. As individual churches, we have ex: celled everywhere. For example, the Abyafaian Church in New York ‘City the frst of April raised SEVEN ‘THOUSAND DOLLARS, and the 16th Street Church of Birmingham, Ala. bama, during the same’ month, raised ‘Thirteen Thousand Dollars. But for real team work, as set out in our Lord's Prayer, and now called for in all successful undertakings, we have utterly failed. The men nad women who gathered on that day,.realized that not to erect a monument to Dr. Morris and build the Publishing House this year, would’ make all Baptists look very small, if not a laughing stock in the yes of all thoughtful peo- ple. ‘The president suggested the follow: ing which wag adopted as the plans by which money is to be raised: That the $100,00 to be raised be apportioned among the several states as follows: States in Class A (asked t oraise $5, 900 each): Alabama, Arkansas, Geor- gia, Illinois, Louisana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas. States in Class B (asked to raise $2,000.): California, District of Col- umbia, Florida, Indiana, lowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Virginia, and West Virginia. | WALL ST.

A stranger arriving in Los Angeles now, after two years’ absence, and visiting the old. Western, would be amazed at the changes that time and progressive enterprise have wrought. In greatly enlarged quarters, a smali army of clerks serve a responsive and satisfied public with high class goods at bargain prices.

EDUCATIONAL NOTES Special Articles Book Reviews Opinions Interviews THE BATTLE ARCHIE WOODYARD Jefferson Sprint Marvel One of the best local athletes ever to don a pair of spikes is little Archie Woodyard, sprinting ace of Jefferson High School. He has been a consistent point winner throughout the season, winning the hundred yards dash and the two hundred twenty yards. He has run the century in 10 1-5 seconds several times and the fugling in 22 1-5 three times. In the tryouts for the City meet he equalled the existing record of 10 1-5 held jointly by Paddock and Redmond. The following Saturday when the finals for the city were held Archie beat the Pasadena finish. Eddie Pollack in the century, but the judges gave the race to Pollack. Pictures taken by photographers, and especially the one which was loaned to the Jeffersonian, the Jefferson High School weekly newspaper by the Examiner, showed Woodyard winning and looking back at his white rival. Nevertheless, in the two twenty Woodyard led the field to the tape winning easily in the fast time of 22 1-5 conds, and establishing a new City record for the event. In the Southern California meet held last month at Santa Ana, Archie, although ill, ran a beautiful race in the hundred, but was beaten by a few inches by Hershall Smith, of San Fernando, national sprint champ. The time was. 10:15. He came back strong in the furlong. The little speed demon raced to the tape beating Smith by six inches and equalled the Southern California record of 22:15 seconds held by Chas. Paddock since 1917. Woodyard was Jefferson's hope for team honors also that day. His total of points were eight, thus enabling Jefferson to place in the first half-dozen. He is entered in the State meet at Oxy today, and if old man Dope has his way, Archie should make things hot in the century for the speedsters, and should win. Anyway, we believe he will win the other sprint event, as he has made the fastest time in the state so far this year in the two hundred twenty yards. He has an enviable treasure of medals and has been complimented by a host of friends. Archie is expected to be one of the prp athletes to compose Rublen's All-American Scholastic track team, should he compete in the National meet in Chicago this month. SWIMMING POOL TO The swimming pool will open about the 15th. This ought it be good news for all who are fond of the popular tank exercise and those seeking relief from old man Sol. The tank will receive a new coat of paint, and later in the sumer Mr. Hayes Roberson, our swimming instructor, intends to conduct several meets. Moving Pictures of Aviatrix Are Excellent Moving pictures of Miss Bessie Coleman, only race woman flyer, were shown at the "Y" all this week, and proved to be not only educational and entertaining, but inspirational. A Pathe News Reel of her flights in Germany showed the flyer hovering over the former Kaiser's palace in Berlin. The second picture showed her performing before twenty thousand of her people at the Tri-State Fair in Memphis, Tennessee last October. Mis Coleman was engaged in making a picture for the movies at Santa Monica, when suddenly her plane made a three hundred foot nose-dive and crashed to the ground. This is the third and last of the films and at the end Hon. Chandler Owen, Mrs. Jones, and several friends are seen with the noted aviatrix If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened The Alpha Delta Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha will conclude its Educational Campaign on Sunday, May 13, with an entertainment to all students of High Schools or Colleges. The affair will take place at the Parish Hall, 1527 Paloma, and will assume the form of an Educational Fete. Dr. Stoner, executive secretary to the President of U. S. C. will speak and a splendid program will be presented. Tempting refreshments will be served. All students are urged to bring their class and school pennants, and be prepared to give their school yells. Now all together, lets be there for a good time. Come one, come all. An Educational Meeting at the A. M. E. Church at Pasadena will conclude the worthy campaign for education among the Colored youth of the country. The Alpha Delta Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha scored a tremendous success on the occasion of its Educational Sunday, April 29th, an annual event connected with the "Go to High School Go to College Campaign." Dr. Montgomery, the registrar of the University of Southern California, was the speaker at the meeting conducted by the Chapter at the Western Presbyterian Church on the above date. The force of his words struck home and no doubt inspired many to a greater determination. Musical numbers presented by members of the church added much to the success of the occasion. In the evening of the same day the Chapter conducted an Educational Program at the First A. M. E. church, Dr. R. B. Von KleinSmid, president of the University of Southern California delivered the address of the evening. His brilliant oratory, coupled with his winning personality, carried the audience and he was greeted with rounds of applause. An unusual program was rendered by members of the Chapter, assisted by Miss Naida McCullough and Mr. Armice Fouche. A cornet solo by Mr. William Prince, selections by, the Crown City Quartet consisting of Messrs. William Prince, Arthur Prince, William Stroud and Armie Fouche, a piano solo by Miss McCullough and a tenor solo by Mr. Stroud, made up the program which was received with enthusiasm by the large audience. Professor Bartlett and his choir added to the enjoyment of the occasion by selections. Rev. A Milton Ward, the pastor spoke words of encouragement to the young men of the Fraternity. In his introduction of the speakers, McGregor, president of Alpha Delta Chapter added to his laurels by the eloquent manner in which he presented the distinguished guest. Malcolm H. Patton, First Vice President of Alpha Delta and Chairman of the Educational Campaign Committee, presided over the meeting in his usual pleasing manner.

GLADDEN, Jr. THE VALUE OF AN EDUCATION IN BUSINESS MAY QUEEN (By Wendell P. Gladden, Jr.) My lady brown Now wears a crown Of pink and red red roses; Black curls flow down On gauzy gown. While she in smiles reposes. Green shades and blue, And every hue Abound in scented bowers; Where maids entrance Who skip and dance Before her throne of flowers. Each maiden trips With tinted strips The May-Pole fast enfolding; And so the scene The dusky queen Sits quietly beholding. And still they play Until the day In joy serenely closes; My lady brown Has worn a crown Of pink, and red, red roses. CUB CAPERS By Leon Whitaker. The library seems to have lost its attraction for many of its most frequent habitues. We saw Miss Paige, Miss Cold, Mr. Brown, and Mr. Stovall standing outside (not incide) when they could have been studying. We didn't say that they were together. Rus William is trying to survey the entire campus all by himself with two assistants. This Rus is a smart feller. Lorenz Graham, the handsome corporal, has found a nice way to make money for the haberdashers. He allows some crook to steal all the clothes, then he goes and buys more. Speaking of clothes, this fellow Johnson continues to make the boys weep and the girls bat their eyes with his latest afternoon dress. Uncle Sam is surely nice to his male-men. Miss Hilda Johnson is going to surprise them all yet. She surely is consistent; never misses her Spanish class. Speaking of near-students and coefficients, George Green can't find any place to seek book reference but the Branch library. Maybe there are no insurance statistics downtown. Aw-w. We don't know who she is, but we heard that she vigorously denied being "Colored." We wish that she would come and see us. There are many things to instill pride and a conscientious desire for service into By Benjamin C. Colly. Since education and business have been given various meanings, it is best for us to choose a definition which will suit our consideration. The word education is derived from the Latin verb educere, meaning to lead out or from. From this definition many others have sprung, such as the following: Education is the imparting of knowledge. Again, education means the bringing out of man's powers—the unfoldment of those powers with which God has so perfectly endowed man. Milton goes further in defining education. He says in his "Tractate," "I call therefore a complete and generous Education that which fits a man to perform justly and magnanimously all the offices both private and public of Peace and War." But the meaning which we are to use is that education is to be regarded as training for the varied work of life—industrial, social, and political—in which knowledge is not an end but an incident, in which the student is learning to do things. Business has various meanings. It is defined as: employment, trade, something to be done or transacted. But the meaning we are to adopt here is that business is "the pursuit or occupation that requires energy, time and thought." Since education is learning to do things and business "is the energy, time, and thought required by these things, there are certain advantages when education and business go hand in hand. The first value of education in business is intellectual. In business man has problems which must be solved by thought. The training the business-man has received in school enables him to think and think logically. Every one can think but not all do think. And those who do htink do not think. And those who do dthing do not result of training. In school the pupil acquires a good memory and learns how to visualize. He learns the relative importance of things, which teaches him to systematize and arrange our very fairest nad most beautiful. Personally, we see no honor in being "Spanish" on the campus when one has to be "Colored" socially. However, some folks have strange notions. Time solves most riddles, even at that. Everybody here is working hard and willing under the terrific heat. The end is at hand. Erskine Raigland, the big brute, does all his studying between 12 p. m. and 5 a. m. He surely is ambitious. Sumner Thompson, the hero of Company B, has many activities. They aren't all academic either. We're watching you, Bo. Rodin must have cast his mind into the future and looked upon Miss Mathews when he is sculpted "The Thinker." You ought to see her between 9 and 10 at desk 2 in the libe. Business. If a man know his business, which he does if he has been trained, he can get just as much and sometimes more out of his business than he puts into it. The ratio between the energy expended and work accomplished is the efficiency. The man who accomplishes work equal to energy, time and thought that expands is a hundred per cent efficient. Efficiency increases the production of goods and services, it utilizes time advantageously, and it conserves energy rather than wastes it. It was only in the late war that we learned the value of efficiency. Germany showed the world what efficiency can do, although their efficiency had destructive tendencies. During the war Germany made use of everything with very little if any waste. America, which is opulent in resources, lost your modern business men who have not acquired an education in some school or college think that education is not necessary in business and that work and persistence are the only requirements. They forget to consider that their superintendents, managers of different departments, traveling salesmen, heads of their foreign factories, heads of their executive agents rae men who have acquired a liberal high or commercial education. They overlook the fact that the success of the business is due to the sum total of these men's productive and constructive thinking and not theirs. HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Oakland Club Escapes Jinx by Channing Name to Delta Tennis Club. By William Mella Watson. 1555 Court St. Wilshire 3742 1923 Tennis scandal: Have you heard that those Oaklandites with the pretty and winsome maiden as the leader has changed its label to Delta Tennis Club in order to rid theirselves of a pronounced jinx, and the Federation sanctioned their act? That—Mrs. Hyner "Katy" Your and "Joe" Brown were selected by the Alpha Parthenial club to play the tournament at Alameda (Oakland in July?) There's a goof out here so backward that he thought the Boy Wonder was a Juvenile Meditation. Aln't but the one, Bud. them in logical order. The ability to do one's own thinking in business is of paramount importance. In studying for business in school one is trained in business psychology, which plays an important role in the business of today. Business of today is not simple like that of the past; it is complex and has many branches. Psychology aids the merchant in forecasting demands and supply of goods and commodities, in advertising his commodities in such a way as to bring in the best results; and in buying and selling of them with profit and without loss of time and energy. Psychology is very essential to the business manager. If he knows this science he can select "the right man for the place." He can give his men the correct training for difficult tasks. The second value of education in business is productive. Bankruptcy is bad business and shows a lack of business ability in some cases. Panics are the results of bad business. If a man understands the laws of economics there is little chance to go bankrupt except through means unusual. Since the consequence of bankruptcy is panic which prove disastrous to the nation as well as to the individual, and since economica is a remedy for such conditions, education is very essential in eliminating many bad features of business. A business man without any knowledge of economics is like a only with a mind. The man will not except control his course and determine his destiny. In studying economics the business man learns how to foretell, to an appreciable degree, future financial events and control the business cycle, which consists of the periods of depression nad expansion of business. In economies the student studies production, consumption, exchange, transportation, and distribution of wealth. He studies the evolution of money, banking, and financing. He is taught the laws of economics and how to solve economic problems. Summing it all up, he studies man and his means of obtaining a living.

If a man know his business which he does if he has been trained, he can get just as much and sometimes more out of his business than he puts into it. The ratio between the energy expended and work accomplished is the efficiency. The man who accomplishes work equal to energy, time and thought that expands is a hundred per cent efficient. Efficiency increases the production of goods and services, it utilizes time advantageously, and it conserves energy rather than wastes it. It was only in the late war that we learned the value of efficiency. Germany showed the world what efficiency can do, although their efficiency had destructive tendencies. During the war Germany made use of everything with very little if any waste. America, which is opulent in resources, lost much through inefficiency. A great quantity of materials that was lost could have been saved if America had known the value of efficiency. Only that which is saved is gained. The third value of education in business is social. The business man in dealing with other people must consider that there are certain facts and principles which demand his attention. All people are human. None of them is a perfect saint; none of them is a mere animal—at least for business. Business wants them, all of them everyday in the year. It is no favor on the part of the business man to the people that he is in business. It is exceedingly favorable to him that he has the people to do business with. He cannot get along without them, but they can get along without him, for they can get another man in his place. All this means that a man's business power must respect the people. How is respectability acquired except through education? Education teaches man the value of the other man's welfare. All the people want the "Square Deal." The man who deals squarely with his fellowman is the one who is most likely to succeed in life. When people know that a man will transact business justly, they will trust him, have confidence in him, and back him in any reasonable undertaking. In school one learns how to be democratic and valuable square dealing. The social standing of a man in his community has an effect on his business. A man of a meager education is not always ranked very high socially. Society demands culture and refinement. Is a man born with these attributes? Does he have to be put through a process of training to acquire and retain them? It has always been that men and women with culture and refinement are those who have been educated. Socially, education, culture and refinement are synonymous. The educated man has many friends because he knows how to make them. He received his training from his association among fellow students in school. He can interest those with whom he comes in contact. He creates an atmosphere about himself that is instructive and agreeable. In conclusion I wish to state that education is business. All the advantages of education are components of business. If business was carried on without the aid of education, we would still be in the primitive state as far as business is concerned. Education makes business grow with civilization. Business as we know it now cannot be carried on without edu South 1540 cation. So, your modern business men who ha' not acquired an education in some school or college think that education is not necessary in business and that work and persistence are the only requirements. They forget to consider that their superintendents, managers of different departments, traveling salesmen, heads of their foreign factories, and their executive agents rae men who have acquired a liberal high or commercial education. They overlook the fact that the success of the business is due to the sum total of these men's productive and constructive thinking and not theirs. HIGH SCHOOL NOTES HIGH SCHOOL NOTES By William Narcisse Benjamin Colly, student at Jefferson High School, recently demonstrated his ability as an essay writer, by winning the cup offered by Hamburger, for the best essay on "Education in Business." Too much credit can not be given to "Bennie" for his achievement. Walker of Oakland High School, again proved to the public that he is a spinner of no mean ability by placing fourth in the 100 yd. dash and third in the 220 yd dash in the Pacific Association of the A. A. U. annual track meet at the University of California, last Saturday. This is a very creditable showing, as he ran against the best men California, Stanford, and the Olympic Club could produce. Bruce Jackson centerfield on Jeff's baseball team, played a great game against Manual, Thursday of last week. The Democrats took the contest 5-4, due to the excellent work displayed by Jackson, who fielded a thousand percent. He is the best Colored all-around athlete now attending high school. He is a two-year basket-ball man, two-year baseball man and played one year of lightweight football and was very adept in each. Last night at the First A. M. E. Church, was held the fourth annual Declaration Contest, in which nine schools were striving valiantly to annex the honors, and nine representatives each trying to win the coveted gold medal. The schools represented are: Lincoln, Los Angeles, Manual Arts, Polytechnic, Hollywood, Pasadena, Monrovia, Compton and Jefferson. Tomorrow at the Sojourner Truth Home will be held the annual tea for the winter and summer graduates of this year, and the alumni. Today at the new stadium, at Exposition Park the annual state track and field meet will be held. This meet will bring together the best athletes, representing the various high schools in California. It will also be the opening of the stadium, which was recently completed. All athletes winning a first place will be allowed to compete in the National meet, at Chicago, May 26. Archie Woodyard, Jefferson speed phenomenon, has a splendid chance to make the trip. He should place at least second in the 100 and win the 220 with ease.

This class of business al- though given little significance and notice by us generally, yet commands a place as essential and indispengible as our haber-dasher, our clothier and shoe man. To have our clothing properly cleaned, pressed and’ repaired is a vital matter in our being rightly dressed und feeling and looking so. That the plase above mentioned is ho more nor less than a cleaning and Pressing shop is now easily guessed. The mass of work being done at this place attests the fac: that many have already taken note of the “qual- ity” workmanship turned out there. At the same address is found the Cambridge Hand Laundry from which the cleaning and pressing shop gets ‘its name. _ Mr. Johnson who operates and man. ages the Cleaning and Pressing Shop informed me that he had been there, renting floor space from the laundry owners ,since Feb.—just three months While again 1a this locality last week Mr. Johnson was found estab- lishing himself in new and more com- modious quarters at 2019 Central Avenue next door to ‘the Cambridge Laundry. In explaining Mr, Johnson says that he finds his business grown so rapidly and to. such proportions that it de manded expansion and larger quar- ters, He has ‘spent several years as a wage earner in one of the largest and best cleaning ‘establishments where his careful and efficient workmanship gave him steady employment. This same care and “quality” work- manship you will find him giving at the Cambridge Cleaning and Pressing Shop. You will find both Mr, and Mrs. Johnson congenial, affable and ready to serve you with a smile. “Ready service and ‘quality’, work- manship,” they say is thelr motto. Their remarkable growth tends. to recommend them.

Mexicali, Baja Mexico, May 9.—(Pacific Coast News Bureau) Special to Eagle. Seeking an opportunity to bring about a better understanding between the Mexican people and the colored Americans thru the establishment of a lasting memorial to the increasing friendship between the two races, one of the most important meetings that has ever been held between the two races was recently held in the beautiful San Francisco Cafe in Tia Juana, Mexico. Among those present were Lic. J. Inocente Lugo, Governor of Lower California; Louis G. Beltram, Mayor of Ensenada; R. D. Manriguis, Mayor of Tia Juana; R. D. P. Jorres, Mayor of Mexicali; Jose J. Montes, Chief of Palace of Tia Juana; Robt P. Fite of Los Angeles, formerly efficiency expert of the Ford Motor Co., of New York; and Hugh E. Macbeth, General Counsel of the International Community Welfare League of Los Angeles. To Establish $100,000 Sanitarium As a result of this conference plans were drawn and definitely concluded to erect a $100,000 health sanitarium at the sulphur springs in the Santa Clara Valley, Lower California. The sanitarium is to be built in units costing $10,000 per unit; the first unit having been subscribed by Mayor Louis G. Beltram of Ensenada in behalf of the Mexican residents of the Ensenada district, and who will be asked to purchase "bricks" at 50 cents each as a donation to assist in building this sanitarium which will be shared without discrimination by all citizens of Mexico, regardless of Race or color. Other units will be secured by the Mexican citizens at the solicitation of Mayor Beltram who has been appointed by Gov. Lugo as Superintendent of the campaign throughout Lower California. Under the supervision of Robt P. Fite, formerly efficiency expert of the Ford Co., of New York and later general distributor of the Cheviroth throat Southern California, with a reputation as the only representative that has ever sold $1,000,000 worth of Chevirots retail in 90 days, the citizens of Southern California and other communities will be asked to subscribe for the remaining units. An Eleemosnary Institution. Ten acres upon which is located the noted sulphur springs has been donated by the Lower California Mexican Land and Development Co., a Negro syndicate of Los Angeles, and deeded to the Sanitarium Corporation, which as an elemenosnary organization is composed of colored, white and Mexican personages, philanthropically inclined, who are interested in promoting a better feeling between the three races throughout Mexico where the Negro and other colored races are welcomed without prejudice. An Ideal Location. The sulphur springs noted by the Mexicans for years for their medicinal qualities lie in the beautiful Santa Clara Valley, about 40 miles by auto from the thriving Mexican seaport city Ensenada; and 60 miles from the Southern California city of San Diego. Situated amid the mountains and only a few miles from the sea, the climate is equal to that which has made the state of California famous. THE LEAGUE STILL LEADS Our recent victory in the Primary election is portentous. Again the California Citizens Cicic League goes on record for an overwhelming success. Our entire ticket carried with few exceptions. This result is due to our members nad friends. They no longer take things for "granted." The new day has produced a new Negro. This man is thinking. Once upon a time he allowed others to think for him. We rejoice that that condition no longer obtains. The Negro in "Politics" today is fast becoming a statist in the van. In public conflicts he is being trained and bred. He has been taught that "Politics is a science of government." Our people are learning that it is more than that—it is the science of handling men; that shrewd reckoning and balancing of one group against the other; by recognition of his political functions and an accurate understanding of policies he is able to forecast a logical outcome from propositional boundaries. The thinker insists that Politics is "the art and science" that have to do with the management of men in the mass; that this management is founded upon a proficient practice of elimination and concentration. The practical politician does not seek to inoculate the "innumerable caravan" of voters with new ideas, on the contrary, he searches not the basic ideas that are already us group. to thank every one of our heir invaluable assistance to re-elect Mayor Cryer. the interest of our other highly appreciated. headquarters at 1331 and give us your ship in the Califor- nue. your PEOPLE OF COLOR OF WEST AND GREAT EAST TO UNITE For the first time in the history of the world, a group of Western men of African lineage, met Wednesday evening and organized a temporary society whose aim and purpose, God willing, is to bridge the chasm between the oppressed racial groups of this Western world and the Mohameden world of the East. The founding of a society whose emblem is to be The Crescent of The House of Islam and whose philosophy is to be that of the consistent Musulman, is a fact of universal significance and in accord with divine plan, the founders declare. The meeting for permanent organization and the election of officers will be held next Wednesday evening at a place and hour to be announced later. Mr. H. H. Gordon, an authority on things Aethiopic and Egyptian and a distinguished racial leader is the chairman, of the present organization, Abdullah Galli, Arabic traveller and veteran of three African Wars, a native of Somaliland, East Africa, and Pedro Byres, poet, African explorer and chronologist are the founders and the three outstanding men, whose cosmic minds have seen the vision and possessed the zeal to succeed in forming this virile nucleus of Mohamedanism, a movement predestined to contact and unite the Black Men of the Western World with hte Afibic and Turkish Worlds of the Great East, whose Moslem ranks will sound the call for justice and present solidarity of purpose to the Nominal Christian Whites.

MODERN NEGRO'S CONTRIBUTION TO MUSICAL ART (Mabel Travis Wood) Everyone knows that Negroes have given to America much of her most typical and beautiful folk music thru the spirituals and plantation songs that have grown out of the life of the race. But what musical art owes to the modern Negro composer is not so generally recognized. There is today a wealth of music both sacred and secular which has come from the penn of Negro composers. Some of ti is based upon the spirituals, and some of it is not racial in character. Such Negro composers as Harry T. Burleigh, S. Coleridge-Taylor, Will Marion Cook, R. Nathaniel Dett, Carl R. Diton, J. Rosamond Johnson, and Clarence Cameron White have during the past fifteen years written songs of rare melody and originality, songs that will live. Of late there has been a steady increase in the appreciation of musical compositions by Negroes both among white and colored groups, Church choirs have given over services to sacred compositions by Negro composers. Many women's clubs have devoted time at their sessions to the performance of religious compositions by Negro composers, especially the simpler choral works. Colored groups operating locally under Community Service have presented special programs of Negro music, combining the spirituals with songs by modern Negro composers. In New Haven, Connecticut, a festival of Negro music presented by a Negro community chorus and in Augusta, Georgia, a musical program made up largely of compositions by Negroes brought fresh musical knowledge and appreciation. The Bureau of Community Music of Community Service, 315 Fourth Avenue, New York City, is endeavoring to foster this growing interest and to acquaint more music groups, both white and colored, with the possibilities offered by compositions by modern Negro composers. A bulletin, "Music Composed by Negroes" has been prepared by this Bureau and is sent out at the nominal charge of ten cents. It lists the compositions of seven of the foremost Negro composers, telling for what combinations of voices and instruments they are arranged and where they may be secured. Examples of well-balanced programs of Negro music which already have been presented are given. To help groups desiring to take up the study of performance of Negro spirituals the bulletin mentions the best existing collections of this type of music. Community Service has made in this bulletin the first complete and satisfactory compendium of music by Negro composers. It will prove enlightening not only to Americans in general who may be unacquainted with the treasures that are contained in the storehouse of Negro music, but to colored groups which may not be familiar with all of the music that their race has produced. IN THE MUSIC WORLD By John A. Gray: The great Paderewski, that giant among pianists, has finished his concert tour for this season. He gave in all seventy recitals, and earned over a half million dollars. He is sixty-two years of age and is in great form physically. He lives for the most prat in his private car and practices many hours a day in order to keep himself in trim. For exercise he paces up and down the corridor of his car. On this tour he took his own cook, and American Negro, who has been with him for twenty-nine years. What a wonderful opportunity this man has had to know Paderewski as he is and how interesting his experiences would be to the world if they could be written. 0----00---- Under the supervision of Community Service, choruses are being formed in various parts of the United States for Negro singers. Geo. L. Johnson, one of the most prominent Negro singers and conductors in the United States, is in charge of the movement and has already established choruses in Parsons and Coffeyville, Kan., and Huntington, W. Va. Organizations are being planned in Dayton, Zanesville and Hamilton, Ohio; New Haven, Conn., and Knoxville, Tenn. Others of the forty colored centers throughout the country under the Community Service are also considering starting choruses. 0----00----0 Miss Edna Thomas, who specializes in Negro and Creole songs, was asked what made her first think of presenting them. She said: "Because I happened to hear some badly done. When I heard those quaint, fascinating old Creole and Negro songs which awake in me such poignant memories of forgotten corners of my own childhood—when I heard those delicate melodies trying to hide like frightened children from the huge orchestra which tried to distort them—to bury them under an instrumentation like piles of garments and belfowels never intended for them—I felt so badly that I sat down that very night and wrote to my mother that I was coming home to collect all the old songs that I could find and do them the way they should be done. "Their appeal is universal," says Miss Thomas. "all audiences love the beautiful melodies which the Negro songs have and they respond to that curious rhythm which they cannot define. Then the absolute sincerity that the Negro gives to the words of his songs and the quaint humor which all these songs carry—which comes' to the listener but must never be suggested by the interpreter or else this lovely music takes on a hint of the ridiculous. That is one reason why I wear the hoop skirt. In order to keep the dignity. We who love and understand these things wish to do everything in our power to keep people from taking them lightly." Miss Thomas is from New Orleans and expects to concertize in California next year. We are hoping that she will include Los Angeles in her list of cities. We regret that none of our own singers have awakened to the beauty of their heritage and since the death of Madame Azalia Hackley, we have been watching for signs of a new apostle.
