TATE" to be legal are elected by vote of the tist Church, Twelfth and Hemlockello members, and not appointed as given "The church war at Tabernacle Baptist Church, Twelth and Hemlock streets, is over, the courts having awarded the victory to Trustee W. B. Tate and others in the suit brought against them by their former pastor, L. B. Brown. He desired in his suit to take control of Tabernacle and her properties, including building funds. "At the present time we are without a pastor, but there will be services as usual Sunday morning and evening; also Wednesday evening prayer service. Doors are open to all. You are welcome. Come and worship with us and give God the glory. W. B. TATE." —New Age Dispatch, May 19th "I am grateful to the management of this splendid paper for its fairness in calling upon me before publishing reports of one who has been misrepresented as I have. "The regularly appointed trustees of Tabernacle will state the truth of our matter to the public. Our deacon board will do the same. The membership and visitors know that lies being circulated are diabolical and pucilanimous. "There is to be a court decision. There has not been a trial yet. The officers and I had to enjoin certain unfinancial and unchristian followers of Tabernacle to preserve the respect of the public. "Money! Money! Money! is the root of this evil. The pastor has caused the church thieves to cease their activities. The trial will reveal to the public the real cause of the trouble. "The new church project on Twenty-seventh and Paloma is what I am interested in. Those who would make the public disrespect me as a man do so because I tried to inspire them to make a show. "I am still the pastor of Tabernacle Baptist Church. The majority of its members are loyal to us and are keeping up my salary. Those who are against me have made three strenuous efforts to run me from my post of duty. When they called me on the first of January they were beaten. They called me over in March and were beaten worse than at first. Their last resort was to reorganise the church under a new set of by-laws, then wipe out all that had been done prior. They then elected themselves to office and proceeded to lock the church doors. We opened the doors to the people and will do so again. Let the public awake the truth "Truth crushed to earth will rise again." "L. B. BROWN." —New Age Dispatch May 19. Los Angeles Calif. TO THE PUBLIC: In answer to the article published in last week's issue of the "New Age Dispatch" under statement of Rev. L. B. Brown; I wish to say in the first place the regular Trustees and Deacons of the Tabernacle Baptist Church to be legal are elected by vote of the members, and not appointed as given out in this article, is one of the causes of our trouble. The information that there is to be a court decision, is false and misleading, as in the Superior Court, Department 16, with Judge York 'as presiding Judge, May 8th, 1923, a Demurrer was sustained in the case of L. B. Brown, Plaintiff against W. B. Tate, Defendant, et al; in the cause of the Tabernacle Baptist Church, and upon motion of Hass & Dunnigan, attorneys, for the Defendant, the case was thrown out of Court. We are pleased to learn through this article that the Rev. Brown has at last acknowledged that he and his self-appointed officers filed the suit in Court, but we deny the charge that we are unfinancial and unchristianlike, we bowed to every unlawful act and conduct of the Rev. Brown as Pastar of the Tabernacle Baptist Church until he proceeded in the attempt to dispose of our Church Property (that had been bought and paid for by us years before Rev. Brown came here) without authority from the Church. He says Money, Money, Money, is the root of the evil, and the Pastor has caused the Church thieves to ceas their activities. If the Tabernacle Church had any thieves among their members, they were received since December, 1920. He says the new Church project on Twenty-seventh and Paloma streets is what he is interested in, we are mostly interested in our Church property situated on Seventeenth and Naomi and on Hemlock between Ninth and Twelfth streets, which is all paid for and was about to be sold from under us as advertised articles in our possession will indicate. He however told you that money was the root of this evil, he also tells the public that he is still the Pastor of the Tabernacle Church, yet he preached his last sermon in the Tabernacle Church on Sunday, May 6th, 1923. The doors of the Church however, are open every Sunday as well as during the week for services, and the pulpit is being filled by spiritual divines, but under a new regime. Rev. Brown says our last resort was to reorganize the Church under a new set of By-Laws, this is untrue, a Baptist Church can only be organized once, and this has been done in the case of the Tabernacle Church some years ago, but as an incorporate body, they failed to adopt a set of By-Laws for their government, this is what we did on April 2nd, 1923, to legalise our acts as a corporation. When this was done we elected a new set of Deacons and Trustees, and declared our pulpit vacant, in so doing, leaves the Tabernacle Church without a Pastor, but with a strong set of Officers determined to protect the interest of the Tabernacle Church from wrong doers. Done by order of the Church, May 18, 1923. W. L. KIMBROUGH. Chm. Board of Deacons A. L. Crosby, Clerk. On the evening of May 29, EDNA HEARD will stage the graduation ritual in the Old Chapel of the College of Liberal Arts, University of Southern California. Her program will demonstrate her familiarity with Russian, EDNA HEARD Italian, German, French, and English song literature, including arias from opera and oratorio. Miss Heard will be assisted by Miss Mary Taylor pianiste and Miss Elizabeth Mottern accompanist. FAMOUS BLACK AND TAN BAND What promises to be the most unique and breezy entertainment for the brilliant and distinguished editor of the Messenger of New York City will be the one which is sponsored by the famous Black and Tan Band and will be given at their Hall near Third and Main St., on Monday evening, May 28th. Entertainment Without Frills No frills about this meeting of the East and West to compare the jazz music as dished up by the Black and Tan and that which Mr. Owen hears in New York City. The people are invited to come out and greet Mr. Owen. And as the band furnishes the jazz they will do the rest. Mr. Owen has been entertaining the people, and just before his departure these crack musicians have decided to give their densant complimentary to this man who is truly a representative and advocate for the people. The Black and Tan Band is proud to be enrolled among the organized trades for which the Messenger is a spokesman. There will be no advance in admission. And there will be accommodations ACCLAIMED DRAMATIC READER, SOON TO BE HEARD IN LOS ANGELES The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text or details. It appears to be a grayscale image with a blurry, indistinct figure. An artistic event of more than usual interest will be the dramatic recital by Miss Ada Bell Griffin, at Hamilton M. E. Church on Wednesday, May 6th. Miss Griffin is a young women of charming and magnetic personality, and an oblutionist of national reputation. She appeared on Tuesday, May 29, in Pasadena, and her splendid dramatic interpretation was enthusiastically acclaimed by a capacity audience of the most critical and discriminating theatre-goers. Miss Griffin presents a unique attraction, in that she interprets all the characters in the famous melodrama, "Within the Law." It will be remembered* that the stellar role in this well-known play was created by Jane Cowl, and subsequently made famous by Marjorie Rambeau, Mary Nash and Personel of Black and Tan The following is the personal of this splendid organization which is giving this entertainment complimentary to Mr. Owen. They ask the public to join in with them and make it the big event of his sojourn here, special music and a great time at this danzan. others on the legitimate stage, and by Norma Talmadge, in motion pictures. In fact, this picture has just concluded a two weeks' run at the Kinema Theatre. But whereas these actresses enacted but one part, that of "Mary Turner," our own Miss Griffin interprets all the roles in the play. There are twelve characters of very diverse types, and it is the highest tribute to the ability of any dramatic reader to perform this feat successfully. Miss Griffin's performance has been received with the highest praise over the country, on her present tour, and all lovers of dramatic art will unquestionably turn out "en masse" on the night of June 6th to see and hear this brilliant artist, of whom our race may well be proud. SHOOTS IN DEFENSE On Tuesday night, May 23rd, L. M. Johnson, Colored, proprietor of the Cambridge Cleaning Company on Central avenue, shot and, killed Harry Harris, a young Jewish salesman, following an idle remark made in passing on the street, and at the ingent hold Thursday morning, at the W. C. Draper Undertaking parlor, was found guilty of murder in the first degree, his preliminary hearing will be held next Monday. (Continued on Page Four) DISTRICT CONFERENCE HOLDS GREAT SESSION Rev. J. H. Wilson, P. E. The District Conference; Conventions of the Sunday Schools Womans Mite Missionary Societies and Allen Christian Endeavor Leagues were opened at 7:15 a.m. Wednesday, May 16, at Fresno, Calif., in a special tabernacle. Rev. C. C. Carter, pastor. Presiding Elder Wilson introduced Rev. C. N. Elliott of Park's Chapel, Oakland to preach the annual sermon, whose subject was the "Old Time Religion," and a great convention was under way. Rev. J. W. Rodgers of Marysville was elected secretary, the committees were appointed and the district stewards made their reports and each charge came up with a round report one hundred per cent strong. The disciplinary questions: "The Moral Condition of the People," by Rev. C. A. Harris of Santa Barbara; "The Condition of the Public Schools" by Rev. Nelson Pryor of Oakland, drew a heated discussion on the conference floor and floated out to groups of discussions. Sergeant M. W. Saddler of Oakland and James P. Geary of Fresno were elected as delegates to the annual conference and James Simmons of Tulare and Poe Clinton of Red Bluff were elected as alternates. The finance committee received and disbursed $257.72 which speaks for itself and does not include the Sunday offering, which was $70.00 and there was $200 given at the ground breaking rally for a greater Bethel Church in Fresno. There were eight rattling good serons given by Revs. Elliott, Browne Duncan, Hughes, Lacy, Harris, Wesley and Gantt which resulted in four conversions and several accessions. Visitors present were Rev. James Washington, Presiding Elder f othe Los Angeles district; Rev. L. S. Goolby of San Diego; Rev. C. W. Bryant of Los Angeles; T. M. Davis, Fresno (Baptist); Payne Middleton, State President, A. C. E. League; Rev. and Mrs. Cotton (Penticostal) of Oakland and Miss Ida, Bell Griffin, dramatic reader, of Worcester, Mass. The Sunday School Convention Mrs. L. M. Dixon of Oakland was reelected as District Superintendent and Miss Mabel Scott of Sacramento as secretary. The features of the convention were the "Sand Table" demonstration by Mrs. L. Herndon of San Francisco and the "Dramatization work," by Mrs. Lillian Carter of Fresno. There was a "Hand work demonstration" by Oakland worthy of mention. Sacramento carried away the first prize for hand work and Santa Barbara took the banner prize. The Cradle Roll and Home Departments under Mrs. Pearl Winters are being developed. The Woman's Mite Missionary Society Was gracefully presided over by Mrs. Fred A. Hughes who was reelected as its District head. This district is in direct touch with our work in South America where money, clothing, etc., are being sent to Dr. Halkbrook on that field. This work is being done under the immediate supervision of Mrs. Nelson Pryor, who read several interesting letters from that field. Mrs. Hughes brought greetings directly from Bishop and (Continued on Page Four) Last Sunday afternoon, May 20th at 3 o'clock sharp, a huge throng crowded into the 14th Street School Auditorium to hear the editor of the Messenger speak on "The Only Road to Negro Freedom." Emanuel Hall, great tenor-bartone, sang two selections. The house sings "John Brown's body lies 'amoundering in the grave but his soul goes marching on." Owen stated that freedom meant ability of one to act in obedience to his desire. In other words, the ability to do what you want to do. What one wants to do, however, will depend upon his education. The Ku Klux Klan is seeking liberty, that is, to satisfy its desires. But the liberty to do wrong is as sacred to a man as the liberty to do right. To decide where one wants to go, and then to remove the obstacle, is what must be done in finding the road to Negro Freedom. The editor discussed prohibition, the terms colored, Negro, Afro-American, manhood and wealth concepts for the Negro. The highest pitch of interest came in Owen's discussion of Christianity. He said he believed in the ideals of brotherly love and the golden rule, but the white man's practice of Christianity was in striking contrast with his professions. The lines of segregation are probably more tightly drawn in the church than anywhere else. White church, colored church—white God, Colored God. "Then too," said Owen, "there are too many Negro preachers." (This statement was greeted with thunderous applause by the whole audience.) "I don't mean that there are not splendid colored ministers, but we need to have a smaller number—less quantity and greater quality. There is one white minister to 801 white people, and one Negro minister to every 560 Negroes. Moreover, too many churches are being built. Most of these churches are frozen capital. The modern church structure should have the auditorium on the second floor or with an arcade, so that the first floor might have stores, offices and such, as a means of income. This would release the people's energies and monies for other useful work." This statement was also long and loudly applauded.) Owen in closing warned against considering all white people as enemies to the Negro. The chief difference, he said, between California's and South Carolina's treatment of colored people is the different attitude of the white people. It would be easier for California to aggregate Negroes and make them side by side. Crow Cars than it would be for South Carolina, if the overwhelming majority of white people favored such injustice. Heroin has the value of speaking before, educating and educating the sentiment of white people. The meeting was held under the auspices of Mrs. A. C. Richardson who presented Mr. Owen. The process were for the benefit of the N. A. A. C. ees 1 : Z ‘ | ! ! bo CREOLE!

Howard, special assistant to age Attorney General. is now the high- est salaried Gaverament official of col- or in the United States. This distinc: tion comes as the result of a promo tion in the tangible form of an in- crease of $1.000 in his yearly salary. He now receives $6,000 a year. Result of Legal Efforts This promotion is a recognition of the very valuable legal services Mr. Howard has rendered the Goverament. He received his appointment two years ago and was assigned a large number of suits brought by various railroad companies agajnst the United States. Many millions of dollars in claims against the Government were involved. The railroad companies had the best lawyers they could retain. But Mr. Howard went to Bis work en- thusiastically and, as a result of the success with which he defended these claims against the Government. the ‘Attorney General shortly. after his re- turn to the Department of Justice lasi week approved this promotion ‘for him. i Engaged in important Work. Anieeres geged at the “ot ‘may be had from the fact that during the. year ending June 30, 1983 ee canes bandle¢ by kim, in the ameunt ey was 34, 999,415.71, were disposed of, The claimants, however, secured judg: ments for only $513,850.19. for a large part of which there was ao defense; the only question involved being the ascertainment of the correct amount due. He now has 102 cases pending, in which the amounts claimed dggre- gate $3,901, 204.46. e He has also represemged the Gov- ernment in two coal cases involving the question of the liability of the U- nited States fog losses incurred by producers in selling their coal at prices fixed by the Fuel Administrea- tion under the wartime powers given the President. In both of these cases he filed demurrers to the petitions, which were sustained in the Court of Claims. The coal companies imme- diately appealed to the Supreme Court and if these test cases should be de cided adversely to the Government. the.

HUBBARD ..... Advertising ROBT, ANDERSON ..... Foreman A LAND OF MILK AND HONEY. Conan Doyle, great English Spiritualist, is in America again. He lectured this week at the Trinity Auditorium. He seems to have plenty of spirit but he desires more materialism. He is willing to exchange spirit for money. America is a great place for grazing. All Europeans understand how easy Americans are. A few years ago Friedman of Germany came here to sell his turtle serum on tuberculosis. He left after a few weeks some hundred thousands of dollars to the good. Sir Olixer Lodge found this country a good place to lodge and leave with a larger purse. Einstein, the author of the much discussed theories of relativity, found America "relatively" the best place to present his theory. Only recently Emil Coue, the French chemist, came to these shores and got a handsome fortune for telling us to say: "Every day in every way I am getting better and better." He really did get better purses every day in every way. What is true of white people is more largely true of Negroes. Almost every fakir who comes along takes in the Negro population. We have been recently deluged with African princes, born for the most part in Georgia, Florida, Oklahoma and North Carolina. Sometimes we meet Indians who are simply mulatto Negroes from New Orleans or some such point who have just received a message from the far East which the authors are deputed to transmit to the oppressed Negro on percentage. The American Negro like the American white man pays them all. He is too generous to think. For fear some worthy person may be missed, he supports all the fakirs and quacks who come along. Truly this is a land of milk and honey for charlatans of all types. American diplomats are well known in Europe for having fat pocket books and empty heads. If this is true of select diplomats, what more can we expect of the common American herd? Our slogan should be: "America the mecca of schemers! welcome to our shores!" The girl who would succeed, must keep her eyes, ears and heart ope nfor whatever means a larger, more cultivated and comprehensive view of the world and humanity. She must endeavor to retain her own individuality, keep her own convictions of right and wrong and improve her own personality, without allowing herself t obecome a copy of someone else. And yet she must realize that every day she is meeting men and women who have enjoyed greater privileges, perhaps, than she has ever known, and put herself into a receptive state of mind to learn from them whatsoever can be of benefit to her in any possible way. The conviction that better laws, alike for the individual and for the nation must be backed u pand made vital by the power of a self denying love. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened IT IS THE MAN WHO DOES THAT COUNTS. It is not the man who stands upon the corner—nor the one who points out the strong man's stumbles, that is moulder of men. The credit belongs to the men who are in the game to win, whose faces are marred by dust, and sweat, and blood; who strive valiantly. Men who err and come short and short again and again, because there is no effort without error and short comings, but who actually strive to do the deeds, who know the great enthusiasm, the great devotions, who spend themselves in a worthy cause, who at best know in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if they fail, at least fail while daring, so that their places shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat. A WHITE MAN'S COUNTRY. However politicians may prate and wave the bloody shirt, a government of the people and for the people means: "No North, No South." To the task of governmental responsibility they have been pledged, and coalation of ideas and a concentration of purpose to the greatest good of all the people, will only suffice to obliterate sectional lines, and give us a government well fitted for the performance of the duties devolving upon it. It cannot be accomplished by persistent efforts of men like Attorney General Dougherty in catering to Southern whims in his line up for presidential timber, nor his ignorant utterance before the Supreme Court when he over-stepped the law and declared that "This is a white man's country." Just what the Attorney General means by this gross insult to 15 millions of black men will be purged from his tainted soul and his mind will again rest upon memories of those Black Sons of Democracy, now sleeping upon the torn bosom of France, that truth and justice may not perish from the face of the earth. The great big-hearted Americans must learn, (and the sooner the better) that a disregard of the Constitution and the rights conferred upon her citizens will redound to her discredit and precipitate disgrace. This must be learned in both the North and the South. The infringements upon the rights and an infraction of the privileges of the citizens of any country by the country, itself, argues the inability of that country to measure up to the demands, and, is an open disregard for the provision of her Constitution. There is a law in physics that says: "The action and re-action are equal and in opposite directions." In every case re-action will develop itself, or demonstrate itself in science, in law, in government and society. So it is incumbent upon humanity to observe the laws, which in re-action, will produce the best results. This government is pledged to the task of giving protection to every citizen; to see that he enjoys life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And in all candor we declare that this is not the case. Until America frees herself from the grip of race prejudice, race segregation and race hate, she will not take her place in the counsels of the democracy. Her dreams will not come true unless she grant this democracy to every man in America, without regard to race, color, or previous condition of servitude. EDITORIAL REFLECTIONS A fool's grin is indicative of his mind. Every hot day gone is a cold one coming. Successful results often mean a world of efforts. Some women reign and others just storm about. Success has never killed a man, though worry to attain it has murdered its thousands. Most failures are some one's lack of confidence formed into a reality. Carelessness and indifference and neglect are not timbers for the builders of character. Whatever the reason for impoliteness on the part of one may be, he can really never amount to much. Politeness counts always. For many, many years the Negroes of the country have been voting for Republicans only. The reason has been because it was under Republican rule that he was given his freedom and made an American citizen. The Negro is very grateful and fully wants to pay the bill. But it seems to us that in the fifty years we should be by now paid up. That is if the Republican party has not given us something more of value. I don't believe that they have. At least I can say that the administration has done nothing and the race as a whole has just about given up hope. In fact, ask any of the old ones and they will tel you they do not know what is the matter with the Republicans—the they don't seem to care for our vote. I will say here, yes, they do want your vote but feel that they have it anyway, because Abraham Lincoln and the Republican party bought it and for the party they freed the slaves. That was a great deed, but the children of the old leaders seem to forget the children of the old slaves, thus the Republicans of today are not the Republicans of yesterday. And we should feel free to vote any issue that was for the best for the state and country or any man that stood for those issues, whether he is Republican or Democrat. We must get behind the criticism and not behind the Republican party only, right or wrong. The Negro Republican vote is like a suit of clothes that we have had a long time but it is too good to throw away. We have to give it to the emergency, so we place it away on the shelf and give it such care as to keep it in readiness at any time. It has no other value, so is the position of Negro Republican vote, only in close election does it have value. Now if we should give some other party a good strong vote for a progressive issue, we will have them add value to it and I am sure the Republicans will certainly notice that they have lost something of value in the last of the Negro Republican vote. We must have value to be considered, and we must not let the Republican party be the judge of that value. MUST DO AWAY WITH RACE PRE- JUDICE It is not the Asian who needs educating, it is the European and American. We are not worrying half so much about the heathen in his blindness as we are the Christian in his blindness. We shall never meet the problems growing out of our relation with the far east unless we, once for all, put away race prejudice, the enemy of the civilized west. And this coadjutor in this country is a fitting criminal—loke—fellow. * The opinion of the civilized world must have some effect on the most calloused American official conscience, and it is our governing class, our men and women of light and learning, that needs to be aroused on this question. It is hard to tell which is the worse enemy of the Black man, the brute who incites lynching by the basest of crimes, or the social equality fellow who slanders his country and boasts of the only real red blooded man in the world. The Black man is up against many obstacles in which the meanest white American can have no adequate conception. The only way we can break this accursed line up of race prejudice is to go forward under pressure and make the best of these hard conditions and do our utmost by our individual achievements to tear away the mask of hypocrisy from their faces so they can see themselves the laughing stock of three-fourths of the people of the world. If this veil is not lifted in the next decade we will see him driven back into sin and degradation from whence he came. THE NEGRO OR THE FOREIGNER FOR THE SOUTH? The unrestricted coming of immigrants into America keeps down the wage standard and the standard of living for the American laborer and imperils the condition of employment. It is also startling to be told that 35 percent of American shores are illiterate as compared with less than 3 per cent of the old immi- NEGRO REPUBLICANS By: E. W. Kyle grant class. We are raising money to convert the far away heathen—untutored, uncultivated, unwashed, unshaved—are coming in flocks to our country. There were 1,041,000 alliens, representing forty races, that came into America during the last year. At this rate imagine how many have rolled in upon America through the past years. Of the 92,000,000 people in the United States 41,000,000 are either immigrants or born of foreign parentage, leaving only 41,000,000 whites born of native white parents. The 10,000,000 Negroes give the numerical dominance in America of people who are not white people of American parentage. There are about 3,000,000 now in the south, and 50,000 came here last year; a large majority of these foreigners are ignorant, and only a few are members of a Christian denomination. If they are not Christianized they will heathenize the South. Let the foreigners come into the South in large numbers and the white people of this southland will have more than a Negro problem on their hands. If the foreigner comes in large numbers in the south the Negro will leave. This the southern people do not want in a sense, for they cannot use the foreigner in their business as a servant like they can the Negro. THE BYSTANDER PETER B. A few Sundays ago, a member of the People's Forum offered a motion to the effect, that a Committee be selected to investigate the tendency of Coroner's Juries to liberate Colored prisoners who had chosen Colored people as their victims. The motion was denied and we thought no more of it until recently a white attorney making a woefully weak and feeble effort to save his Colored client's life, reminded us of the aforesaid condition. Hailing from Texas, the land of Klux and Klan, the white lawyer—the lord and master for some of our people—related how down home "niggers" were regarded as lars, thieves, etc., with the intention, seemingly, to impress that this was a case where a Negro killed another one, and no one especially white people, should concern themselves, or take seriously. Such costly nonsense! Yet some of our people would doubly prefer to bargain for this kind of prattle and insult than pay half the amount for all of the intellect and brain our attorneys possess. There are some smooth, unfair and tricky Colored lawyers and many bunco white ones; at any event you pay the white and pay them dearly, since they do not particularly care for your patronage. The race lawyers must give time, energy and pride; get half pay, and finally submit to ridicule after he fails to make the crooked way straight. This is no attempt to justify crooked, illegal deals perpetuated by any one, but it is time that the attention of our people be called to the fact, that it is as bad when a jury.convicts you with a white attorney as when a Negro is your defender. The penalty is the same. We are not pretending thus to solicit trade for there are enough race respecting, race loving people to support any business that is legitimate and proper; yet, it is an injustice and wholly unappreciated, for anyone whether he be from Cincinnati, Pasadena or Georgia, to get up before an intelligent group of people and vilify our race, no doubt for high pay, and little criticism. Like clinging vines some of our people shall always hold to "Mr. Charlie." This seems as true of churches as of individuals, any Negro lawyer can be demurred out of court, yet, "Mr. Colored lawyer, help the church, and by all means give an address for such and such an occasion." With friendship for all and malice toward none, this article is written. We must work side by side and together, white and black; we in business and out shall, however, never be efficient until we get the chance, or a united people until we learn Greek for the Greek, the Egyptian for Egypt the Negro for Colored America and one God for us all. EDWARD MORRIS EDWARD MORKIS We knew him little in life, but more in death. Few knew him as he toiled and worked, all praise his memory, in his absence. We love him for his effort, his worth, his bravery. He died in harness, fighting for a cause—an education—a battle many of us wage, yet few are successful. He lost in a combat most young men are too cowardly to tackle. It was a battle against great odds, an attempt to work and study, the result was the inevitable. None knew of his pangs and sufferings, for as a brave martyr, he fought on mid silence and despair. We are prone to wonder whether or not this choice of life pays. Is it worth while for a young man to shun the primrose path, to divorce the bright lights and cleave to the long, narrow, pitiless road of preparation and justice? This was the query that faced Morris, it must be answered by each of us. Parents and friends often forsake and discourage. The way to success through books and education seems to leisurely and playful to them, they prefer a pick and hoe or a broom and mop. But with a determination as grim as death, and a hope as crystal line as the rays of the sun, we must be brave in which we go beyond us and exert perseverance to the end. It is a powerful compliment to be called a self-made man, yet experience has convinced the writer that it is a risky ordeal, and a tired body is not the most conducive element for mental acumen. Edward Morris, comrade and co-worker, you fought a good fight. You have won in that from your decision and life, we have caught new inspiration and spirit. We too, shall press on with endless hope and unquenching determination to rest and you in that haven prepared for spirits who dare and do. A BACE CHOIR I gazed wistfully upon the immortal Tournament of Roses, and thought how glorious it would have been if some race organization or group, had sufficiently bestirred itself to the extent of representing us in that immaculate display; but in vain. At last, however, a group has come on the scene, full of pride, pep, and pluck to represent, and to represent nobly, the Weekly Chapel Choir. Too much praise cannot be heaped on this splendidly trained, neatly equipped and technically arranged group that caused an anguage the Music Parade Saturday evening, amid the wild plaudits of onlookers who lost sight of color and revealed in the majesty of art. Arrayed in large busses, beautifully decorated with green fern and California poppies, the full choir, in becoming vestment sang into the soul, the bystanders stood silent, looked with amazement, and only broke the spell with wild acclaim. What a triumph for Wesley, its pastor, its choir leader. It had a yet greater significance, it was a triumph for the race and exhibited the clean respectable and intellectual portion of our group HOW TO CURE INFANTILE ECZEMA By Dr. E. B. Lewis, B. Sc. M. D. 1618 1-2 Est 9th Street. Eczema in its infinite variety, is a name that is used to cover a multitude of sins—not always of the victim, but rather of the absence of complete medical knowledge and its application. Time was when eczema and other affections of the skin were gibly ascribed to "scrofula." "leprosy" and "uric acid diathesis." Some whose opinion are founded upon ancient assertions still hold stoutly to this doctrine. Be this as it may, eczemas are not always wholly dependent upon any ally or other of the sufferers, but healthy-looking infants—the overfed sort—are at times the first ones to have eczema of the scalp, the face, behind the ears and elsewhere. The use of fluids that irritate the skin, hard water, sharp winds, dry air, cold and heat, strong soaps or dirt may all excite the delicate skin of an infant to the point of such eruptions. Commonly, however, there is also internal susceptibility from too much sugar, sweet, rich and greasy milks and artificial foods. To be sure, mothers who are too overworked to keep their children scrupulously clean can still be held accountable for these dermal malades. Irritation from dirt, greases, soiled clothing, perspiration behind the ears, in the creases of the lips and other folds of the skin are often the cause of these eczemas. Intestinal disorders and other digestive disturbances, excessive, use of fatty and cereal or farinaceous foods such as potatoes and oatmeal are sometimes the underlying soil of eczemas. Indicated Local Treatment. One of the frequent forms of infantile eczema is by strange preference limited to the cheeks, scalp, forehead, ears and neck. It may occur elsewhere, too. Small, red papules appear first and then coalesce. Thereupon a moist, red surface exudes serum, lymph or even matter. This dries and forms the thick crusts which may be as hard as that worn by the man in "the Iron Mask." These crusts must be removed with hot water and castile soap. Occasionally it is necessary to soak them off with bicarbonate of soda in water. Beneath the crusts there is a red, inflamed, granular surface which bleeds readily and exudes matter of lymph. It is upon this denuded surface that yellow oxide of mercury ointment or some moist eczema remedy is to be applied. At the same time the food and diet are reduced in quantity and changed in quality. Swollen lymph glands of the neck and in other neighborhoods of the eruption give proof that bacteria and other microbes, if not among the true causes, are at least secondary invaders of the eczematous areas. These large lymph nodes are sensitive and painful, and are among several other causes of restlessness, loss of sleep night nights, nightmares, talking and muttering in sleep. Head lice are also sources of such scalp eczemas. Seek the Cause Contrary to one of those many apparently undestroyable delusions so old and so widespread that the truth does not prevail, it is never dangerous to cure an eczema for fear of "driving it in." This absurdity is only one of many that seem to prove that "man is a reasoning animal" yet fails to use his knowledge of research. To cure any skin eruption in the shortest possible time is most desirable. A judicious estimate of the individual's rations, habit, sleep, amenities, water, garments, occupation, baths and personal cleanliness is more essential than the lotions and ointments, salves and other skin applications. These however are as a rule necessary. The removal of scabs and crusts comes first. Comfort from the itching is next in order. Then protection of the new skin that is forming. The pulverized preparation of calamine or black wash allowed to dry on in layers allays the itch and soreness. Then the oil of cade and salicylic acid ointment to cure the open places is called for. Study labor, patience and persistence bring the reward of a complete cure. Dr. Lewis will answer questions for readers of this paper on medical, hygienic and sanitation subjects that are of general interest to the public. He can always undertake to prescribe coffer advice for individual cases. Where the subject is not of general interest, letters will be answered personally, if a stamped and addressed envelope enclosed. Address all inquiries to Dr. E. B. Lewis, 1618 1- East 9th Street.

Murder Marines Would Mean Uprising Against Puppet President. (Crusader Service) PORT AU PRINCE, May 23.—Members of the Congressional party which arrived here yesterday on the transport Henderson for a two day investigation into the effects of the benevolent seizure of the British republic and thoughed suppression of the Liberals' people by the purely unselfish and highly altruistic Government of the United States, confess that they are greatly impressed with the complete tranquility observable on every hand. In spite, however, of this cemetery-like quiet, the visitors feel quite certain that it would never, never do to withdraw the United States marines from the scene as the withdrawal of this force, which is so representative of the kind interest which the Colossus of the North holds in her weaker neighbors to the South, would undoubtedly lead to the regeneration within the breasts of the Haitian people of such ancient and foolish notions of liberty as the right to elect a President sans the valuable advice of the altruistic pirates in Washington. In fact, even so cursory and fleeting an investigation as the two day visit allowed the Congressional party served to convince those able advocates of the "white burden" of voluntary, and even insistent, carrying, of the valuables of the colored brother, that the withdrawal of the American Big Fist would immediately destroy the grave- yard quiet or "peace American" and result in a determined effort on the part of the populace to overthrow President Borno, alleged puppet choice of America for President of the once free Republic of Haiti. However that may be, the Congressional Party, direct from the highly civilized land of the Ku Klux Klan, the Bastrop turtles, the Florida peonage cases, the reactionary American Legion, Tammany Hall, corpulent politics, unbridled profiteering, the politics of other beautiful flowers of American civilization, is quite certain that "as for absolute quiet, no place could have more of it than Haytí now enjoys"—unless it might be a cemetery. And, as crowning proof of the tranquility with which the land is blessed under the American Occupation, the visitors found that Haitian workers who are 'getting 30 cents a day for road work, would be quite satisfied with 20 cents. Strong detachment of United States marines are stationed at strategic points throughout the republic to ensure a continuance of tranquility—made possible no doubt, by the cold-blooded murders of three thousand unarmed natives, women and children included, during the first year of Occupation. And, lest untoward incidents should mar this blissful tranquility born of cracker guns and bayonets, these detachments are often supplied via roundabout routes to lessen the chances of convoy meeting up with live Haitian patriots who still cherish dreams of independence, and perhaps, remember how Toussaint L'Overture used to get his supplies by capturing them from the enemy. WHITE FOLK BACK OF GARVEY'S AFRICA MOVE Threaten to Make America' so Hard for Race That We Will Gladly Follow Marcus Over the Seas. (Crusader Service) PORTLAND, Ore., May 23—Reminiscent of the circulars distributed among Negroes last summer advising them that Garvey and the Ku Khux Klan they two best friends and that they should beware of the Church of Rome and the radical groups within the Race, propaganda circulars are being distributed far and wide over the West to the effect that the Knights of the White Light have undertaken the task of not only making the Negro fall in line with the Garvey program and depart for parts in Africa, but of making the Negro earnestly and anxiously desirous of going.' The leaflets, mailed to white citizens of these parts, inform them that the aim of the Knights of the White Light is to see that all people of African descent be chased out of this country. They have taken a vow to force the Negro to go to Africa, and to want to go. The circular reads, in part: "Speakers or agents are to tell them of the beautiful home across the Atlantic from whence they came. Nor is the press to be idle, all manner of magazines, papers, pamphlets, calculated to excite a desire in them for a home across the pond, will be scattered among them. "We must send agents among the Negroes, to encourage the emigration, telling them of the delightful climate, and the rich soil, where cotton and all kinds of fruit grow wild. Where there are not white men to rape their women and lynch their men, where they can have officers and make their own laws, and where freedom will be as unlimited as the sunshine which is above their heads. "Transportation must be furnished them or, if possible have them to furnish their own shirts. "In the fewest, words possible the purpose of our organization is to transport all Negroes in the United States to Africa. As there is no law to compel the coon to leave unless he wants to, the first step is to make him want to emigrate as suggested above. Every person who joins this order swears among other things to assist the coons to the conclusion that it is to their interest to place the Atlantic ocean between themselves and the members of the Knights of the White Light."

Mrs. Brandoe, we reluctantly give you up. How endearing has been our relationship! You have stolen into our life, and into the life of our Church as a sun beam. But be it far from us to exercise the slightest spirit of cruelty, to ever persuade you not to do a thing which I nourish estimation is for your own betterment. Now that you are leaving us to go to a new field of endeavor, we assure you, an interest in our prayer. If we have been of any service to you, or meant anything toward your advancement, happy are we to know it. There is not the least regret in our hearts of having contributed, to your progress in the lime light of Los Angeles musical world. Rather we are happy to have had the opportunity through the medium of our church to present a worthy young woman of the race to the City and County of Los Angeles. You have appeared in some of the largest and most influential churches of Southern California. Where ever you go, we are persuaded to believe, that when in a state of meditation some of your most delightful, and pleasant, and sweetest reminiscences, will be your association with us. Again, yea, frice we wish you a brilliant success in your work. Now we bid you God speed. Signed on behalf of our Church, Committee: 14th and Birch Street. We had another high day and the services were well attended both morning and evening. The ex-militar, Rev. Brother C. Oothram, presided at 11:00 o'clock our hour for subject the third chapter of the 2nd Cor. and the ninth verse: "For we are laborers together with God: ye are God's building. His theme was: 'We are co-workers with God and the church seemed to take on new life and Brother Oothram was at his best." WALL ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH—East 5th and Wall Streets. Odd Fellows Hall. Our services last Lord's day were good born in spirit and attendance. Rev. F. C. Cothram preached morning and evening. He brought us a wonderful message in both sermons. His morning subject was co-workers with God. He made it plain that we being God's children should not be weary in well doing, that a continuance in health and works as taught by God. We would inherit the gift of eternal life through Christ the Son of God our Lord. The evening subject was "The Love of God for the World." Text John 2:16. He showed that God loved us first, not because we loved him or that we were righteous, or did any thing to merit his love but while we were yet sinners. He proved his love by the unspeakable gift of His son, Christ, Jesus our Lord. Our audience was good. Every one seemed to be greatly encouraged and edified. Come and worship wilt us. Elders: HOLLINS, BOOTH and HOPPER. West 39th street and /Normandie Ave. Rev. J. A. H. Eldridge, Pastor. Los Angeles, Cal., May 27, 1922. Our services last Sunday were excellent. Sunday School quite interesting and well attended. The pastor spoke in the morning his subject being "The Ultimate end of the Traitor." The text was taken from Matt. 27:5. It was thoroughly enjoyed by all. The R. Y. P. U. is getting along nicely. It was largely attended Dr. Gantt occupied the pulpit at the evening service. His text was what think ye of Christ. Matt. 24:42. Dr. Gantt is truly a great preacher. Visitors always welcome. Last Sunday was a great day in Tahabern Church with Rev. F. H. Davis in the pulpit, taking for his text the first chapter of Romans and the 16th verse. "For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ." Promptly at eleven o'clock our services began, and many were present to enjoy one of the strongest sermons preached in Tahabern for more than two years. Many rejoiced because of the presence and power of the Holy Spirit. Rev. Davis will be with us Sunday night, June 3rd, n the morning we will hold Covenant Meeting. All are welcome. MATTHEL BAPTIST CHURCH Mudding Services in the Y. M. C. A. Ninth and Hemlock Streets. Dr. H. D. Prowl, Pastor. Our Sunday School was well attended and the Lesson very helptly discussed. At the 11th o'clock service, Dr. Prowl preached from the Teax. Mark 16:3 "Who Shall Roll On away The Stones' and from Eureka 24:2 "And They Found the Stone Rolled Away." The subject was Stones Rolled Away, and the entire discourse was fraught with teaching; comfort and hope. It was made very plain that we most of the time put stones on our own pathway, while others at times place them in our way, and some are rolled there in the way of trial, but The Almighty God is sufficient to move all away. The B. Y. P. U. was conducted at the usual hour, and all benefited from the subject. At night the Text was "will dwell in the House of the Lord forever." The singing was excellent and all enjoyed the day of blessing. We extend hearty welcome to all but urge that you come praying. TABERNACLE BAPSTIST CHURCH—Twelfth and Hemlock Streets. Los Angeles, California. Rev. F. H. Davies, Pro. T. Pastor. Sunday School 9:30 a.m. Presaching 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. B. Y. P. U. 6:30 p.m The regular morning and evening services were held last Sunday. Inspiration was to be gained from both meetings. Rev. Davis filled the pulpit in the morning with the subject—"am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ Jesus." And the Holy Spirit came and dwelled among all that were in the house." We are sure they will return again on the first Sunday in April. In the evening the Rev. Green from Phoenix, Arizona, took his subject from the 18 chapter of the first Chro. Abide by these Faith, Hope and Charity but the greatest of these three are Charity. We hope to have this Man of God to worship with us again. We are pleading to all of the Loyal Members of God and Tateharnale Baptist Church to return to your Church and give God the Glory. He not deceived, God is not mocked what soever a man sow, that shall he also read. AT 1000 CENTRAL AVENUE "Woman's Day" was a very successful affair last Sunday. The sermon by Rev. Ida Ford instead of Rev. Mary Palmer shall ever be remembered by those who heard it. Text: "Ye are the salt of the earth." Matt 5:13. Mrs. Margaret Hood Banks read a paper that was very interesting and timely dealing with the different types of women of the Bible. Her papers are always exceptionally good and deserve great commendation. Rev. Shaw could not be present at the 3:00 o'clock services as he was obliged to fill a previous engagement at our sister church in Monrovia. He preached a fine logical sermon on "Faith." Remember the rally on the mortgage indebtedness is at the door. Every member is expected to rally to their leader. A welcome is extended visitors and friends to all services. Make this your church home. FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH—Eighth St. and Towne Ave. Rev. A. Milton Ward, Minister. Rew H. B.

Pastor Ward occupied his pulpit at 11:00 a. m, and in the evening there was a song service conducted by Payne Middleton, the Western field secretary of the Allen C. E. League. Mr. Stello of Philadelphia, invoked the audience with the solo "The Lord is My Light and My Salvation." By urgent request he responded to encore. He is to render a solo next Sunday morning at 11:00 o'clock. There were two accessions to the church and the offering for the day was nearly $300.00. Many prominent visitors were in attendance. Rev. and Mrs. J. E. McCorkie of Riverside and the Rev. H. B. Gantt and wife worshiped with us. Rev. Ward was voted a vacation by the church and left on Monday for points in the East. He plans to be out four weeks. The Sunday School and A. C. E. League had an interesting session last Sunday. There were 17 additions to the membership of the Sunday School.

(C) Gender Service) WASHINGTON, May 30.—Declaring that selection of a Negro personnel for the Tuskegee (Ala.) Hospital for Negro veterans of the World War, would require time and that measure if their necessary to retain white officers in charge. President Harding recommended his decision to appoint white medical officers to these positions, leaving to Negroes only such appointed positions as ward doctors, nurses, attendants and laborers. That selection was made officially at the White House last week in exposition of Mr. Harding's attitude toward the two Negroes Negro staff rights organization and white institutions of Tuskegee over control of the institution. The President will be asked to take necessary steps to protect Negro physicians assisted to Tuskegee, according to a representative of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. KLAN HEADS IN PUSS AGAIN Central of Sucker, Intention Fee the Real Cause of Virugga Between Simmons and Evans. Letter Got 810,000 Is Charged Made by Ferman Imperial Wizard and All in Six Months Time—Oh Boy Some Sucker Organization. (Crusader Service) ATLANTA, May 30.—The Courts may think they settled the fight for control of the Kluxers between Imperial Wizard Evans and former Imperial Wizard Simmons. But Evans and Simmons know there's too much sucker money involved for any such polite settlement. And both of them are determined to have their two hands in the pie, too. So Simmons started things anew here today, when he made the 'sensational' charge that "a recent audit of the Klan books showed that Evans in six months received in fees more than $400,000, and that this money was deposited to his personal credit and appropriated to his own use." From this it would appear that our own Marcus Garvey of "Black Star" fame will have to take a back seat. Evans has it all over poor Marcus. Says Simmons about Evans: "In addition to a salary of $15,000 a year (true, Marcus' was supposed to be $25,000 a year, but he claimed he rarely got halt of it) and the fees which he appropriated, Evans has charged to the Klan every item of his living expenses including house rent, grocery bills, light and fuel, and automobile upkeep and gasoline." Whew! Oh, boy! In Evans' absence, his attorney declared that Evans would return to Atlanta, klan imperial city, and 'make things hum.' A fight to the finish is promised. At him Evans! At him Bill! "Attaoy." "Provisional President" of Africa Charged With Using the Mails to Bamboise and Defraud...Case Opens at Last "No Law Against Dreams," Says Prosecutor, But Law Against Anyone Using the Mail to Fool the Public. (Cruzader Service) NEW YORK, MAY 30.—Marcus Garvey was forced to go to bat today in the government's case against himself and other officers of the Black Star Line (defunct) on the charges of using the mails to defraud the public. Confidential request by Garvey's attorneys for further postponement of the now famous case was definitely refused by the District Attorney's Office. The case opened Wednesday with Garvey losing his first skirmish when his counsel attempted to have the case tried before another judge than Judge Mack on the argument, branded as ridiculous, that Judge Mack was a contributor to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, a rival organization, according to counsel for Garvey. The prosecator argued that Judge Mack, being interested in the advancement of colored people, as evidenced by his contributions to the N. A. A. C. P. was the person most fit to judge of the merits and demurder of the case against Garvey. On Friday the case was continued with an adjudication from the prosecutor to the jury to discount any statement from the defense regarding race bettement as having any bearing upon the case. Assistant Federal District Attorney Mattuck, representing the government, made the opening argument to the jury in the Federal District Court presided over by Judge Julian Mack. "There is no law against dreams," said Mr. Matiuck. "but there is a law against anyone using the malls to fool the public, regardless of their race or color." Thirty to forty thousand colored people would be better off today if the Black Star Line had never been started, for these unfortunate investors have shares in their possession that are worth less than nothing. It is the purpose of the prosecution to show that various fraudulent methods were employed to induce people in all parts of the country to subscribe for stock in the steamship company which is now defunct after squandering over one million dollars. It will be shown that money from the U. N. I. A., the Negro Factories Corporation and several other subsidiaries, of which Garvey was director-general, found its way into the treasury of the Black Star Line." White, Mr. Mattock was making his scathing denunciation of the "president" of Africa and his financial schemes. Mr. Mattroy was lending over a table he built a array of two lawyers headed by Mister Lincoln Johnson and C. W. McNeillal. Mr. Mattock is a while when an especially brutal thing was said the brilliant little one of the man, who held his braced armate rotated about him. Mr. Newcombe would twinkle and a lion of our crowd camp would overpower his face, only to move away in the heat second. ```markdown ``` YOUR DUTY!

THE COLORED TRADE AN MONEY ON WATCHES, JEWELRY-- PISTOLS, SHOT GUNS-- ANYTHING OF VALUE-- Los Angeles STUDY OF ANT HABIT ITS PROVES INTERESTING. By Wendell Gladden. Has the ant a sense of smell? Well, we shall see. One day ma made three large lemon pies for my exclusive use. She put them on a table near the kitchen window to cool. Naturally, I began working as hard as I could so that I could make a counter attack on the pies with all the fervor that a spoiled stomach and appetite would permit. So when I ceased my labors I ran to the table where the pies were lying. But to my surprise I saw three cross-eyed ants walking around the crusts, I let my index finger drop on one of the ant's head, and behold—his eyes bulged out and he hank within the depths of cooling lemon. Having removed the greedy pests from my sight I felt certain that my troubles were over and left the kitchen for a few minutes to prepare for the feast. But to my surprise again there were fully three hundred families of ants seizing my pies and attempting to drag them away. I was unable to eat, and so I went away disappointed. Can the ant smell? I'll say so. Listen—I afterwards gathered a large household of these busiest of little creatures and studied them. Here is what I discovered about these seemingly insignificant things. First, that the ant is allied to the bee. A lens-shaped scale or segment found at the waist or peduncle distinguishes it from other insects. Surely, that I, each male member of the families that undertook to devour my precious dessert must have loosened his belt at the waist and tested the capacity of its abdomen by storing away an enormous amount of food. Speaking of eating reminds me of an old man in Missouri who staked a purse of $5 against $100 that he could successfully part six dozen fried eggs into the dark warehouse of his body without the least effort. He won. He had a neighbor who could eat a whole sheep and still have a gnawing appetite left. With these astounding incidents in mind it is obvious that had I eaten the three pies, no record would have been broken. The ants have a queen and young ones and are sociable. Both males and females have wings. The undeveloped females are the workers, and are wingless. So you see, the weaker sex is coming into its own. Unlike most of that particular sex, the queen ant is not lethal. It is not unwise to predict that the day is not far distant when ants will send telegraphic messages from one community to another, because of the educational facilities, the skill, and ingenuity of the workers. Nor will it be difficult for them to construct airplanes and visit their peaty racemen in Central America. An army of these leaf-cutting ants are as great a menace to lemon and orange groves as the Rocky Mountain locusts are to a wheat field. There are many species of ants—the brown ant that lives in a burrow and throws up dirt around it—the carpenter ant, large and black found in logs and rotten timber—and the honey ant which stores away honey for hard times. Slavery is still in existence, for there is the slave-holding ant, with a rusty red head and foreparts, and brownish legs and abdomen. The slaves have dark red legs. Scouts go out and locate them. Armies of ants then go out in orderly array and capture the unfortunate insects and keep the eggs until they mature. When one ant meets another, he crosses his antennae with his friend's and apparently gives him some information of some sort, it is thought. There are many moral lessons to be learned from the ant. The ant has an enviable place in literature. And I know Solomon's words apply to me also: "Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways and be wise." After all, has the ant a sense of smell? Yes, he has olfactory organs which stimulate a sense of smell similar to human beings. But I believe they can smell the pungent odor of lemon juice a mile away. This is the last week of school at the Southern Branch. The Northern Branch has been out for a month. Speaking of the Northern Branch, let it be mentioned that Minneapolis Thunder and Lois Gibson, Kid Allen, the Alpha Phi Alpha and the other residents of shops famous cities Berkeley and Oakland, surely know how to make things pleasant and hospitable for their little cubs and cubs to be, during one happy Easter week. Bruel Jones, the bravest showing bear, in a prince manner follows and a wonderful encouragement to California. William Ruz is going to spend one month in the summer surviving in the South Branch. While away he will be encouraged. Summer Thompson, the prize-winning sergeant, will spend his summer pushing a pen in the water office. He'll have the best go and the mojo also. Miss Martian Robinson will no doubt push the little blue Paige up and down the book of California. All the Feds will go to summer school. Who wouldn't go at 150 grand a month. We'd go all our lives. Lorenz Graham will sling hash and hop bells along with being a teahound and a social lion. Bill Stovall will go out with Mother Nature and drink deeply of her pure fresh air and salty waters. Possibly so, possibly so. Edgar Johnson will stay in the post-office and compete with Miss Clod as a sniffer. Those post-office drafts are awful, but as negotiable paper, those checks are so nice. Miss Harrison will probably go to the beach on moonlight evenings in South Carolina. Miss Carter will most likely consolidate U, S. C, and S. B. U, C, but then we would be obliged to pay tuition. Miss Hilda Johnson will read seven Spanish novels in Spanish. Pardon us. Miss Bessie Evans and Miss Jewel Hoffman will gambol on the green; not gamble, but gambol. The other darling little cubs so engrossed in their examinations, have refused to tell the author of any of their impending plans, but we know that all the individual summers will be well spent. The one who styles himself scribe and Jefferson Brown, who is no longer little Jeff, will trek South to Imperial Valley "hot" on the trail of the dollar. Will say "hot" before it's over. Three and a half months of 90 degrees sun at 130 degrees in the shade should give us all kinds of insolation and energy? The Cub will caper no more for a long time. The wandering pen is laid aside to cake with rust and ink while the happy summer days take, precedence over all else. Good bye. There's a guy so drunk that he thinks a bedroom suite is set with pajamas. Ain't but the one. Bud. NOSTALGA I would not think of home— Where snow-clad And purple peaks The cerulean covering In jagged outlines meet; Where west winds sweep The heaving sea; And the aroma Of new-born Flowersets And fruitage Floods, The sun-kissed land; I would not think of home— But memories Still linger. I would not hink of home— Of laughing childhood; Happy faces, And neighbors With hearts so warm— Where awaits And prays for me A tender Soul; One whose cheeks and lips I pressed—and called My mother. I would not think of home— But there are those Who love me, And whom I love. BROWN AND WHITTAKER GET LETTERS BROWN AND WHITTAKER RECEIVE LETTERS IN BOXING AT BRANCH. Jefferson Brown and Leon Whitaker, members of Southern Branch's varsity boxing team were recently rewarded for their good work with a letter and a numeral respectively. Brown is the first colored student to earn his C at U. C. S. B. He competed in four of the matches arranged for the team, and won three of his bouts. Leon has the honor of being the first race student to win a numeral for boxing. He won one of three fights in which he was engaged. At the Vermont institution he is acknowledged as lightweight champion. Whitaker and Brown were the first race students to make the trip to Berkeley in competition for the Cubs. It is claimed that Brown is the first Jefferson high school graduate to earn a letter at the Branch. Incidentally, both men are members of Upponil Chapter of Kappa Alpha. Pat fraternity, and are living up to the character of its members by their hard work and desire always for achievement. Monday night fulfilled the mystic curse of initiation for two men into the Kie and fellowship of Lambda chapter of the OMEGA PSI PHI PLA- TERITY, Dr. Megan C. Nusson and Mr. Jewel V.

The Lambda chapter, song, "All Hall Omega," an original composition, marked the close of the initiation; after, which a refreshing repeat, replete with oriental dainties, awaited both pioneers and new members at an exclusive downtown cafe. The room was beautifully decorated with the fraternity colors, purple and gold. Delicate hues of shaded lights blended everywhere to a focalized area, circumscribing the Greek symbols, OMEGA PSI PHI. Wm M. Peterz was toast-master for the evening. His introduction of Chaucey Townsend, who delivered the address of welcome, was marked by a review of OMEGA'S achievements for the year. Dr. Nelson responded with a carefully worded impromptu. Brother Nelson, as he shall be known by the members of the fraternity, is one of the most successful physicians and surgeons on the Pacific Coast, and his accurate comprehension of problems pertaining to the welfare of races is as amazing as his success. Brother Hodge continued the response with a modest but impressive speech. One meets him to give their instant approval; and his sincerity is a kind which will invite the enthusiasm of all. Other members of the chapter followed with illuminating speeches, in which they outlined the object and ideals of the organization. An abundance of wit and eloquence which every man enjoyed enormously was to be had throughout the evening. It was a glorious occasion, a little touched perhaps with the splendor of setting and depth of appeal OMEGA men can display.

Steinway, of the house of Steinway and sons, at New York's Hotel Gotham. This party was given at the above named place in honor of Fritz Reiner, the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra conductor, who sailed a few days afterward for Europe. Mr. Reiner has just finished his first season in America as conductor of the above named orchestra. He attracted much interest last autumn, when he first arrived, because of his lively interest in jazz music. The guests on this occasion were selected fro mthe greatest men in the musical world. Pianists, composers, managers, artists, singers, teachers and conductors were represented by some of the most capable men in each class. In this brilliant assembly was Mr. Harry Burleigh, our greatest living composer. Mr. Burleigh sang several numbers, all Negro spirituals, and played his own accompaniments. But to quote Mr. Pierre V. Key, in the "Sunday Times." The program arranged by Ernest Urchoa for this occasion was so perfectly in place, and so admirably interpreted, that it demands a word or two. It consisted of several Nagro spirituals, harmonised by Harry T. Burleigh, and of eleven Burleigh songs, all in the characteristic vein. The first group of eight wore sung by Burleigh himself, who played his own piano accompaniments; the last three, including the always welcome "Deep River," by Alma Book. If only some students in singing (and some teachers, too) could have heard. Burleigh they could have learned a lesson in technical delivery of one. No physical effort; no conspiration of the throat. Just clear and easy clapping, with vocal mechanical permission to so its proper way, unimpeded, and, most familiarly, very musical interpretation." In but this whole do a very small claim and to want made something in it?—MILK, May 21, FOACH had perhaps about? This reason of the musical would be appropriate. and entertainment in. Negro music and a race composer. That Mr. Burleigh has a vocal attainment of which teachers could learn something is also an acknowledgement that our race is capable of high development. But to our thinking, the greatest benefit lines in the recognition of Negro music by the world's greatest musicians. What greater encouragement should the young race musician demand? Why should he not feel proud and inspired? Los Angeles Will Soon Be A City With a Population of 1,000,000 The rapid increase in population is bound to cause real estate to increase in value.

Lightner and Mrs. N. E. Perry, respectively, are leaders, gave a Candle Lighting service. A fine program was rendered which included an address by Atty. Willie O. Tyler, who thrilled the audience with his matchless eloquence as he told the Educational and Economic opportunities we have here. The speaker feared that we as a group are not grasping these opportunities as we should. He cited the comparatively small number of our young people who are taking advantage of privileges of High School and College. Other numbers on the program were: Vocal Solos by Miss Dorothy Armstrong, and Miss Solly. Piano Solo, Miss Lillian Brasley. Miss Ella Hardie gave a humorous reading entitled: "Uncle Daniel's prayer." Following the program the lights were lowered and the Candle lighting took place. The Candles which were of various colors stood in rows having a white background and presented a very beautiful picture.

CLEGG FOR COUNCIL Once more we are on deck, the Independent Political League. The Committee has been for fifteen days or more with Lucas C. Luke as Chairman to hunt down the various candidates that have favored us all along, as much as other folks. Now here we come with another man who is seeking the suffrage of our people for Councilman, Mr. C. W. Cheg. We have known him for years and he certainly has gone the rounds in our favor many and many a time. Surely we will give him our support, as a whole. He is as precious to us as ourselves to each other. Watch that name. Mr. Clegg, it's quite important. I said to you before, "A hint to the wise is sufficient" and I know our Race understands me. I will close by saying, he shall get our vote as a whole. I know this will meet your approval. We must remember these white men whom we vote for in our prayers because, they all have stood the test. Can a leopard change his spots, or can a bear change his paw? Your brother, LUCAS C. LUKE.

This power it is forced to pay more than it costs the City to generate its own addition to this, the demand upon it for life is increasing 22 per cent annually, and it also must pay a private corporation vice as much as the City's cost of produc Your Municipal Electric System has reached the limit of electrical development, for many years, along the Aqueduct. It already is buying 30 per cent of its power from a private corporation. For this power it is forced to pay more than twice as much as it costs the City to generate its own electricity. In addition to this, the demand upon it for light and power is increasing 22 per cent annually, and for this increase it also must pay a private corporation more than twice as much as the City's cost of production. TO MEET AN EMERGENCY To meet a grave emergency the City is submitting to the people a bond issue of $35,000,000. $10,000,000 will be used for the complete construction of a power plant to generate 250,000 horsepower at Boulder Canyon, and to pay the complete cost of transmission lines to Los Angeles. meet a grave emergency the City is submitting a bond issue of $35,000,000. $11 will be used for the complete construction of a boat to generate 250,000 horsepower at Los Angeles, and to pay the complete cost of trans to Los Angeles.

No part of the bonds is to be used in the construction of any dam anywhere. The entire amount of these bonds, with interest, will be repaid from electric revenues. They will not increase your electric rates and they will not increase your taxes. On the other hand, they will make it possible for your Municipal Electric System to continue its present low rates. EFFORTS TO BLOCK PROGRESS private power corporations are exerting even to prevent the City from extending its light system, to meet the needs of the people. Organizations, under various deceptive narcotics, are strategically fighting the proposed issue of Electrical Bonds. In their frantic efforts against Property are flooding this city with vicious and riotous use of their favorite lies is that this bond is used your taxes. As a matter of fact, this issue on the ballot that will not increase another of their lies is that this bond issue will the City's bond limit. The fact is that at 100,000 have been voted, there still will be pending margin remaining. Third, and their most malicious lie of all, the bonds are to be used to build a dam at theon. The truth is that not one penny of this is to be used to build any dam, anywhere. Circulars bearing the imprint of the "Work Civic League," are being distributed by the company from its garage at 1515 East First Street. Dozen other deceptive "protective organizing in the selfish interests of private positions, have also suddenly made their appearance only "people" these "leagues" are "worst protect" are the fat profits of the private positions at the expense of the people of Los Angeles these private power corporations are仕 so desperately fighting Proposition 6? They can prevent the City from generating power at Boulder Canyon, the City will buy this electricity at profit of millions to the corporation, and at a loss of millions to the City. Private power corporations are exerting every effort to prevent the City from extending its light and power system, to meet the needs of the people. Its dummy organizations, under various deceptive names are desperately fighting the proposed issue of Electric Power Bonds. In their frantic efforts against Proposition 6, they are flooding this city with vicious and ridiculous lies. One of their favorite lies is that this bond issue will increase your taxes. As a matter of fact, this is the only bond issue on the ballot that will not increase your taxes. Another of their lies is that this bond issue will exceed the City's bond limit. The fact is that after the $35,000,000 have been voted, there still will be an ample bonding margin remaining. A third, and their most malicious lie of all, is that these bonds are to be used to build a dam at Boulder Canyon. The truth is that not one penny of this bond issue is to be used to build any dam, anywhere. Circulars bearing the imprint of the "Working People's Civic League," are being distributed by the Edison Company from its garage at 1515 East First Street. A half dozen other deceptive "protective organizations," working in the selfish interests of private power corporations, have also suddenly made their appearance. The only "people" these "leagues" are "working" to "protect" are the fat profits of the private power corporations at the expense of the people of Los Angeles. Why are these private power corporations and their agents so desperately fighting Proposition 6? Because, if they can prevent the City from generating more cheap power at Boulder Canyon, the City will be forced t obuy this electricity at profit of millions to the private corporation, and at a loss of millions to the City and its people. IT IS UP TO YOU the Edison Company says that it can generate electricity simply as your municipal system. If it can, how does it sit its house lighting rates in towns just outside Los Angeles higher than the City's rates? The corporations also charge that the City's water burea helping the Power Bureau. If that were true, where is the Water Bureau get all its money? How do the in the fact that the City's water rates are just one-third water rates are in San Francisco, served by a private cow do they explain the fact that water rates are just they were in Los Angeles, before the City took over it from a private corporation? is your electric system that the City is operating. is your electric system selfish interests are deepest The Edison Company says that it can generate electric energy just as cheaply as your municipal system. If it can, how does it explain the fact that its house lighting rates in towns just outside Los Angeles are 29 per cent higher than the City's rates? The corporations also charge that the City's water bureau is financially helping the Power Bureau. If that were true, where in the world would the Water Bureau get all its money? How do the corporations explain the fact that the City's water rates are just one-third of what the water rates are in San Francisco, served by a private corporation? And how do they explain the fact that water rates are just one-half of what they were in Los Angeles, before the City took over its water system from a private corporation? It is your electric system that the City is operating. It is your electric system selfish interests are desperately attempting to cripple and render inadequate. Do you want them to succeed? Do you wish to contribute $5,000,000 a year to a private power corporation? The situation is entirely up to you. BUT REMEMBER A Vote For Proposition 6 Will be a Vote to Prevent an Annual Loss of $5,000,000 SONG AFTER ADOWA By Ben E. Burrell for Crusader Service. Tune Ethiopia's life and say: "Praise be the living and the dead." Our Ethiopia lives again. Our Ethiopia lifts her head; Tho' bleeding from a thousand wounds Unbroken is her ancient spear; Again her grandeur shall arise. A faming sun from year to year. Who says that Ethiopia's ness Have lost their fighting blood of old? Who says that Ethiopia's sons Shall see her beacon fires grow cold? Nay, let the rolling torrents sweep— Like granite rocks they face the flood. Theirs is the one enduring faith, Theirs the eternal heart of God! And thou, Adown, thou hast seen, The fallen army melt away; The rolling cannonade is gone And Ethiopia wins the day. Britain's world heart is heard no supply will ever give you. Councilman Allen carried in his pocket for several weeks a request made by the colored people's forum, to have a city ordinance passed against wearing masks. Allen finally reported to the council that there was already a city ordinance against wearing masks at night time, and thus killed the proposition until the Inglewood affair came up. The indignation at that time forced this law to be made. This man Allen has the K. K. spirit: Do not fall to do your duty and vote for good government and the welfare of your children. Keep this for your make-up ticket if you think them worthy of your vote. Yours truly, Evangelist CUDDY.

FOR OTHER R 145 WIDELY ACCLAIMED COLORED MUSICAL COMEDY CLASSIC TO SHOW FIRST TIME IN LOS ANGELES. More than common interest is attracted to the announcement of Manager Walter Hearn of the Mason Opera House in the engagement at that Theatre, commencing Monday, May 28th, of New York's much heralded musical sensation "Shuffle Along." This is the same attraction that took New York by storm, setting that staid old burg into a whirl of jazz and syncopation, and hanging up a world record for a musical comedy, having played over two consecutive years at the 63rd Street Music Hall, something unheard of in the history of musical comedies. Its remarkable success has inspired many imitators, some even going so far as to create titles to try and confuse the public, but "Shuffle Along" remains as originally conceived, the greatest "colored classic" since the days of Williams and Walker. The book of "Shuffle Along" is by Miller and Lysles, while the lyrics and score are by Sissle and Blake, well known writers of harmony and syncopation. The company numbers some sixty odd performers, prominent among them being the well-known colored contralto Emma Jackson, Nellie Brown, John Vaughner, Edgar Connors, Al Baldwin and Theo Mac Donald, the colored "Valentino." One of the outstanding feautres of the organization is the chorus—the same chorus that set New Yorkers dipy—a bevy of Bronze Beauties who work with such speed and abandon as to leave one in a whirl of amazement. The plot, conceived in real Southern atmosphere, unfolds an interesting story, mingled with solos, duets, double and triple quartettes and ensemble numbers. The score of "Shuffle Along" possibly contains more real popular song hits than any two musical comedies ever produced, among them "I'm Wild About Harry," "Love Will Find A Way," "Shuffle Along," "Bandanna Days," Honeysuckle Time," "Oriental Blues," "Mary from Maryland," "Gypsy Blues," and many others. A reception committee headed by Messrs. Mat. Laws and Ragtime Billy Tucker, amusement impresarios, will meet the Golden State Limited when it pulls into the Southern Pacific Station at 1:00 p. m. on Sunday, May 27. A band and an automobile parade will add class to the royal reception to be accorded this star organization.

GRAY Teacher of Aims for Solid Musicianlilh .10TH ST. JOHN A. GRAY Teacher of Piano Aims for Solid Musicianship The Board of Education should be composed of individuals who are not pledged to or dominated by any group, creed, faction, party, or individual. With this idea in mind, the Citizen's School Committee was organized. Seven candidates were chosen, after very careful consideration. The candidates chosen for endorsement by this Committee were: John B. Beman, Frank O. Bristol, Robert L. Burns, Mrs. George H. Clark, Frederick R. Feltshans, Mrs. Lucia Macbeth, and Robert A. Odell. Of these candidates two have intimate knowledge of Eastern Los Angeles. Mrs. George H. Clark taught for four years in the Breed Street School. After her marriage she continued her interest in Eastern Los Angeles, where for the past fifteen years she has worked in the international Institute. Mrs. Clark's grandfather was an editor on 'The Liberator.' Mrs. Clark has been very active in the work of the colored Y. M. C. A., and has been greatly interested in the various religious and educational questions of Los Angeles. The appreciation shown for her work resulted in Mrs. Clark receiving the highest vote of any of the twenty candidates for the Board of Education at the Primaries on May. Frederick R. Fietshans has lived in Eastern Los Angeles since he was five years of age. Mr. Feitshans is the only candidate living east of Main St., who is now running for the Board. Having seven children in the schools, and having always been interested in the development of Los Angeles, Mr. Feitshans will undoubtedly prove a valuable member of the Board of Education if elected. John B. Beman is a graduate of our grammar and high schools, and of Stanford University. He has been in business as an attorney in Los Angeles for twelve years. He has two children who are to be educated in our schools. In the Primaries on May 1 Mr. Beman ran third among the twenty candidates, although his name has never been before the voters of this city in any previous election. Frank O. Bristol has lived in Los Angeles for ten years, during which time he has been very active in public service. During the War Mr. Bristol served as a captain overseas in the Red Cross. His interest in the schools was aroused through his work as a member of the Schools Committee of the Chamber of Commerce, and through his interest in his two children, one of whom is in our schools and on of whom is to enter later. Robert L. Burns served five years on the School Board of Hutchinson, Kansas, and for twenty-five years was in charge of a large flour mill. Mr. Burns was the first flour-mill owner in Kansas to change from a twelve-hour to an eight-hour day, and thus led the way for the final adoption of the eight-hour day among all the millers of Kansas. Mr. Burns has had four children in our schools, two of whom have graduated, and the other tow are now in our high schools. As he can devote his entire time to this work, his experience and ability will be of tremendous value to the city of Los Angeles if he is elected. Mrs. Lucia Macbeth has been very active in the Parent Teachers' Association work, has had three children in our schools, and is a highly educated, capable woman. Mrs. Macbeth ran fourth among the twenty candidates, which shows how greatly her previous work is appreciated by the people of Los Angeles. Robert A. Odell is the only present member of the Board of Education endorsed by our ticket. Mr. Odell has been absolutely fearless in his condemnation of politics in the scholars, with the result that he has antagonized many school politicians. In spite of this, however, he ran second among the twenty candidates at the Primaries and led by almost 10,000 votes every other member of the Board of Education who is standing for relection. SANTA BARBARA Sunday was an ideal day and the services at St. Paul A. M. E. and Second Baptist Churches were good and well attended. The Sunday School at Second Baptist was well attended also. The pastor, Rev. H. B. Thomas, delivered two good soul-stirring sermons at the usual Sunday service hours to a splendid audience. The organist, Mrs. H. B. Thomas, is training the children and an interesting program will be rendered on children's day. All are invited. The B. Y. P. U., Mr. H. Alexander, President, has taken on new life and a number of visitors can be seen at the meetings. All are welcome to spend one hour of interesting discussion as the topics grow with interest each Sunday. The delegates, Rev. C. Harris and members of St. Paul A. M. E. Church have returned and report a useful session accomplishing their undertaking and doing a great deal of good for the progress of the work. Mrs. C. McGowan is home again from the hospital and reported doing nicely. The St. Paul A. M. E. Church entertained with a missionary program Sunday afternoon which was a success: Mrs. J. D. Stewart, Mrs. William Boykins and Mrs. Leon Simma expect to leave Friday to attend the grand lodge session in Oakland. On last Sunday a jolly party motoved up from Los Angeles as far as Santa Barbara consisting of Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Jones, Mr. and Mrs. James Jones and Lillie Jones, all of Los Angeles and Lucia Jones of Seattle, Washington. While in the city they were guests of Mr. and Mrs. een.

F. Scattergoo’ ot the Power Bureau. Mr. Scattergood further drew at tention,to the fact that the limit o feasible development of power along the aqueduct, has been reached. In this connection he emphasized the vi tal Importance-to the voters of sup porting and. voting for the Electric Power Bonds (Proposition 6) on the June election ballot. "ie i of vigal importance that the City of Los Angeles develop a new and large supply of cheap electric en: ergy to meet a demand for clectric service that {8 now increasing at the “rate of 22 per cent annually,” said Mr. Scattergood. “The City’s municipal electric sys- tem has proved to be a splendid in- ‘yestment for the people. The Bureau fo Power and Light fs payiog all fn- terest and principal charges on out- standing electric bonds out of reve- nues, as well as all other expenses, and at tha same time is serving the pedple at Sqeemely low rats. “In the same way, the $35,000,000 bond issué-will not cost the taxpayers one cent, because all. interest and principal’ payments will be made out of electric revenues, returned under the present low rates. “at the present time the City is forced to purchase from the Edison Company one-third of the electricity it distributes, at a price more than two times higher than its own cost of pro- duction. “It certainly is not good busi- ness for the City to continue this’ ar- rangement any longer than it can be helped. “It the preposed Electric Power Bonds ‘are not voted it will mean an annual loss to the City and its people of approximately $5,000,000. And this 1s how the lose will be brought about: “Of the total bond issue $25,000,000 is to be used. for the complete con- struction of-a 260,000 horsepower gen- erating plant at the site of Boulder Canyon Dam and transmission lines from Boulder Canyon to Los Angeles That amount of energy can be gener- ated and delivered to Los Angeles about $5,000,000 cheaper by the City than ft can be purchased under the wholesale rates that the City is now required to pay the Edison Company for large quantities of power. “This, of course, explains why the private power corporations operating behind paid agents ang dummy organ- izations ate desperately opposing the Electric Power Bonds If they can de- feat these bonds they can force the City to continue to buy power from the corporations at rates that will re- turn a fat profit to the corporations, but will mean the loss of millions of dollars each year to the City and its people. “10,000,000 of the bond Issue is to be used to make urgently needed ex- tensions to the municipal electric dis- tributing system inside the City,’ This will make it possible for the Bureau of Power and Light to extend service to many sections of the City that eannot now be served. This portion of the bond Issue will be a pgrticular and immediate benefit to newly annexed sections of Los Angeles.” WHEN YOU THINK OF PAINT THINK OF GREENE Now ig the time to beautify your home!

Saturday the trumpets sounded which announced the beginning of Music Week in the city at which time all musical organizations were given the command to "Fall in." To do this it required labor and sacrifice as well as money. For "there truly is no success without labor." And we should not expect something for nothing. Let us pay the price. We expect so much from the other race, resent segregation and yet how careless and indifferent we are, when the opportunity is given us to associate, and to take our rightful places in the great movement of our city. This was the sad feature of last Saturday evening, if there was a sad feature), for only two organizations, of the many that our race boasts of in this city, responded to the call, to represent a race of thousands in the city, but nevertheless it was done with pride and dignity. The aplause was as great and the appreciation no less, when Prof. Le Blanc's band pealed forth in martial strains, than when the Hollywood American Legion Band or the Los Angeles Police Force Band. And when The Wesley M. E. Choir, rolled by headed by the L. A. Examiner Band, the skies were even shaken with the cheers and applause for they second to second to organize their male muses covered with green fern and California Popies and "Wesley M. E. Choir" said in flowers on either side of the float, with a massive harp made of popies on the float. His splendid organization vested float. This great organization vested with piano and orchestra responded in song at the command of the director's baton until all other features nearby kept silent until they concluded.

More than common interest is attracted to the announcement of Manager Walter Hearn of the Mason Opera House in the engagement at that Theatre, commencing Monday, May 28th, of New York's much heralded musical sensation "Shuffle Along." This is the same attraction that took New York by storm, setting that staid burg into a whirl of jazz and syncopation, and hanging up a world record for a musical comedy, having played over two consecutive years at the 63rd Street Music Hall, something unheard of in the history of musical comedies. Its remarkable success has inspired many imitators, some even going so far as to create titles to try and confuse the public, but "Shuffle Along" remains as originally conceived, the greatest "colored classic" since—the days of Williams and Walker. The book of "Shuffle Along" is by Miller and Lysles, while the lyrics and score are by Sissle and Blake, well known writers of harmony and syncopation. The company numbers some sixty odd performers, prominent among them being the well-known colored contralto Emma Jackson, Nellie Brown, John Vaughner, Edgar Connors, Al Baldwin and Theo Mac Donald, the colored "Valentino." One of the outstanding feautures of the organization is the chorus—the same chorus that set New Yorkers dipy—a bevy of Bronze Beauties who work with such speed and abandon as to leave one in a whirl of amazement. The plot, conceived in real Southern atmosphere, unfolds an interesting story, mingled with solos, duets, double and triple quartettes and ensemble numbers. The score of "Shuffle Along" possibly contains more real popular songs than any two musical comedies ever produced, among them "I'm Wild About Harry," "Love Will Find A Way," "Shuffle Along," "Bandanna Days," Honeysuckle Time," "Oriental Blues," "Mary from Maryland," "Gypsy Blues," and many others. A reception cq committee headed by Messrs. Mat. Laws and Ragtime Billy Tucker, amusement impresarios, will meet the Golden State Limited when it pulls into the Southern Pacific Station at 1:00 p. m. on Sunday, May 27.

Choir Member Westminster Presbyterian HARRY WILLS IS ON DEMPSEY'S TRAIL AGAIN Harry Wills, the New Orleans panther, and the most logical opponent for Champion Jack Dempsey, is still clamoring for a match with the title-holder. According to information obtained from the New York State Athletic Commission by the press, two requests for a declaration of attitude on a proposed championship contest in New York next fall. This fact makes Wills' chances for a heavyweight title contest look brighter. Several months ago Paddy Mullins, Harry's manager, signed articles for the bout, but nothing definite had up to this time been decided. Wills has fought his way to the top of the heavyweight list. He has engaged in eighty-four bouts, according to the records.

Gray Now that the school term is nearing a close, one's attention is attracted by the increased activity on the part of the students, who seem to be intensely interested in their studies. More so now than at any/other time during the term. Those students who have been known as idlers all winter have become fine examples of energetic industry. One is prone to ask for the reason of this transformation. We would classify them as cheaters. All through the term from September to the present time they have been "getting by." Now that the final days are here they are frantic in their efforts to catch up and pass to the next grade. This habit of slipping along is peculiarly American. In the commercial world the manufacturers do not aim to make their goods durable and lasting. In the other walks of life there is the same attempt to patch up and half-do. Thoroughness is a nonentity in American life. In the case of the school children this procedure is extremely illogical. By shirking their tasks they are not cheating the teacher but are robbing themselves and laying the foundation for habits that will cling to them thru life. What is true of the school life is true also of the musical life. The music teacher is constantly confronted with the problem of half-done work. Even the parents seem to feel that new lesson assignments should be given every week and that the progress of the child should be measured by the number of pieces that it can murder. These same parents are willing to pay for lessons—yet make little or no provision for the child to practice. A daily practice hour is never set aside for them, and everything else around the home must be done first and the time that is left is given to music. If there is no time left then the youngster gets no practice. When the father comes home he wants to hear no noise so the piano is closed. These parents are willing to pay out their money and yet cheat themselves in the returns. Still they expect thir child to play as well as any other child. Every missed lesson is a loss of instruction and development to a child and generally means no practice for the following lesson. Such parents are also cheaters. If the child could be brought to realize that when it is a question of personal gain, such as learning something, that to "get by" means his loss, he would be anxious to make every moment count and to get all that he could. This habit acquired in youth would lead to other similar habits when he grew older. Thoroughness in one thing will lead to thoroughness in other things and there will be fewer persons of this class known as cheaters. OMEGA MEN TAKE NEW'HONORS By Chauney Townsend, Director At the annual Military Field Day exercises of the Reserve Officers Training Corps of the University of California, Southern Branch, Company A was aided in winning the honors of the day by Sumner Thompson and Wilalyn Stovall. An individual honor was bestowed on Wilalyn Stovall in winning second place in the Uniform Race. This race is always a special event on this occasion, and was keenly contested by eight cadets. Two men are entered from each organization in the Uniform Race. Each contestant starts in stocking feet, wearing gym shirt and breeches, runs fifteen yards and puts on and fully laces and ties one shoe, then runs forward fifteen yards farther and completely puts on other shoe, then fifteen yards and puts on hat, then fifteen yards and puts on belt and returns to starting point. All above articles are placed on ground in order and at the distance named before start. The Shelter Tent Pitching squad in charge of Sgt. Sumner Thompson took first place in the Tent Pitching Contest. In this contest one full squad from each Rifle company, commanded by a sergeant are entries. The squads in line at halt in field equipment; time taken from pistol. Squads at command of sergeants take intervals to right, pitch tents and place rifles and equipment inside completed tent, and individuals take prescribed posts at attention. Contest judged on time, completeness, method of execution, and appearance of line. It is only natural and proper that the Lambda Chapter of which these young men are members should express their appreciation for this achievement. Thompson and Stovall are not alone assets to the organization, but their accomplishment would win the approval, the enthusiasm and applause of college-bred men and women the world over. MACK HOUSE WINS AT VERNON Mack House, local middleweight, won the decision over Young George at the Vernon Arena Tuesday night. George was wild, but Mack completely outclassed him. HIGH SCHOOL NOTES By: William Narcisse The Annual Y, M, C. A. Track and Field Meet will be held next Wednesday, May 30, at the "Y" field in Boyle Heights. In this meet there will be seen such high school stars as Woodyard, Diggs, Duncan and a numerous host of others. This meet has been won by the Hi-Y every year, but by graduation from high school, the local team has lost such stars as Henry Stapler, one of the fastest prep sprinters that ever donned a pair of spikes; James Norman, also a sprinter of no mean ability, and Laverne Floyd, crack broad jump and relay man. The writer is a bit dubious as to the outcome of this year's meet. Track, now a matter of history, the coaches of the various high schools, have turned their attention to spring football practice. There are a goodly number of race lads out for the faylorite pastime. At Jeff will be seen William Bisco, right guard and letter man of last year's team, Carlie Williams, member of last year's lightweight quad, and Jack Pryor, the little big boy who is out for the first time, whose passing and dropkicking should earn for him a place on the squad. Over at Hollywood High, George Johnson, the nucleus of last year's lightweights, is out for the varsity this year. His ability to buck the line will aid him greatly toward making the team. Alvoid Shivers is out for the light weight team at Lincoln. His speed will be a great asset to him, as he moves over the ground quite rapidly. Elmer Brown, a graduate of San Diego High School, and a member of the track team of 1921, is seen daily at Lincoln High, where he is getting in trim for the "Y" meet. Along with him will be four of his teammates, all running, under the "San Diego Blues," they are: Jimmie Melton who will compete in the 100, 220, and relay; Jerome Hatcher will enter in the two sprints and the relay; ommy King 220 low hurdles, broad jump and relay; Bert Ritchie, 120 high hurdles, 220 low hurdles, broad and high jump and the relay; and Elmer Brown in the mile. With such an array of point-grabbers, they are sure to burst into the point column. Without a doubt the reader thinks that the boys in the high school of today, spend too much time with athletics. But this is not true, because any boy who wishes to participate in competitive sports, must pass in three-fourths of his four solids, and must be in good standing: during that season. Besides keeping one's body healthy and strong, it also enables one to show a better attitude toward his studies. LYCEUM ENTERS TEAM IN "Y" MEET The Young People's Lyceum is going to enter its first track team in the "Y" meet on Decoration Day. The following stars are going to compete: Archie Woodyard, Wilalyn Stovall, Beml, Colly, Thomas Myles, Charles Diggs, George Duncan, Charles Sanders, Charles Matthews, Kenneth Wallare, Langu Dye and others. Yet, there are others who have not signified their intention yet. It seems as though the Lyceum will walk. Under the co-leadership of Stovall and Golley the Lyceum team will come out on top. With an array such as Los Angeles Will Soon Be A City With a Population of 1,000,000 Los Angeles Will Soon Be A City With a Population of 1,000,000 The rapid increase in population is bound to cause real estate to increase in value. The man or woman who buys a home today will be the one who will profit by the great strides that our city is making. Do you know or realize that Los Angeles is the fastest growing city in the world?

The last it is by no means least. The heretofore frivolous young cub can be seen studiously perusing his or her text here and there about the campus. Sometimes the -eds and co-eds are together, but thoughts other than scholastically serious are taboo. his is the week of examinations when the professor and professorette demand a return on some of the stuff they've been handling out. Speaking of handing out, you should have seen Graham, hompson, Brown, Stovall, Cooper and Johnson listening to the kernal's handout on Monday, when most cubs were away on leave for the last holiday of the year leaving the handsome boys in khaki to strut their stuff on the freshly cut lawn. They'll all anxiously await that deposit with baited breath. Among the future Cubs of next fall there are Ralph Bunch, Melvin Thistle, Wendell Gladden, Benj. Colly, Charles Matthews, Lango Dye, Raymond Brown and Earl Robinson. Besides these there are several of whom we don't know. Come on, folks, we'll be looking for you. Besides being the main connecting link between the Southern Branch and U. S. C., also the bond of friendship, Miss Marion Carter wields a wicked racket. It seems that in two more semesters L. A. will be another, Washington, D. C. Let us see more achievement. Elzy Cooper, the all-city piano champ, is some scholar too. If you don't believe it, see his Prof. John Latimore wears a nasty Fed class suit. Go to it, Latimore. Ain't but the one, Bud-Kappa. the one above, all who have made themselves famous about Southern California, there is no doubt as to where the cup will be on the thirty-first.

The conference and conventional theme was "A Good Soldier for Jesus Christ." 2 Tim. 2:3, and was carried throughout the session and was on the tongues of all. ```markdown ``` This session took the air of an Annual Conference in numbers, enthusiasm and results. There were more than five hundred people at the Friday evening session and Rev. J. H Wilson. Veteran presiding elder should be given much credit for the excellent work being done in the San Francisco district. (Continued from Pge One) SHOOTS IN DEFENSE According to the testimony of witnesses for the prosecution, Morris Harris, brother of the slain man, he and Harry were walking West on 20th street with members of Morris's family. Passing Johnson and his wife, Morris jostled the Negro, with a remark about "hogging the whole sidewalk." Johnson retorted and was chased by Morris to his home on Central avenue. Harry followed and defied Johnson to come from his house. A shot was Johnson's answer. It lodged in Harris' abdomen. He fell, mortally wounded, and expired a short time afterward at the receiving hospital. Johnson first evaded his pursuers by hiding on the roof of his house, but afterward went to the Central Police station and gave himself up. His wife was arrested at the same time but was subsequently released. EL CENTRO The Public Schools of this city will close Friday, June 1.

Sunday morning terminated the Mother and Daughter Week program, which was a success from start to finish. Mrs. Dyson as chairman of the general program committee deserves great credit. Sister McCall rendered a beautiful program beginning in the Sunday School and ending in the morning service. At the morning services the pastor preached a special sermon to daughters, his subject was, "Daughter's duties to Mother and to Mother's God." The text was taken from Ruth 1:16. It was delivered in a forceful and eloquent manner and the point of daughter's duty to mother was so impressed that we are sure the whole community will be lifted to higher planes of Christion civilization. The address given by Mips Edna Johnson was instructive. Its deliverance was one of the best it has ever been our privilege to hear. The B. Y. P. U. is still making wonderful strides under the leadership of Mrs. Francis Spikes. Brother McCall filled the pulpit at the evening service. His sermon on the great commission was enjoyed by all. Trinity extends a hearty invitation to all visiting friends. WALL ST. CHRISTIAN CHURCH— 33rd Floor, Hopper Avenue. M. Frederick Mitchell, Pastor. All of our services last Sunday were impressive and helpful. At the 11:00 o'clock service Rev. G. C. Coleman filled the pulpit with a helpful discourse, subject being "The Test of Love." In the evening the Pastor filled his post using for a subject, "Jesus Knocking at Our Door." Both the Sunday School and the Y. P. S. C. E. had inspiring sessions. The Excelsior Literary Society which meets Monday evening of each week, presents The Brandon California Jubilee Quartette the 14th of June.

Washington, Pastor The pastor preached two powerful sermons last Lord's Day. Sunday morning sermon was found in Judge 5:7 and Matthew 12. Subject, "A Mother in Israel." At the close of this discourse everyone came away with a clear conception of their duty to mother. The evening discourse was found in St. John 16:7. The promise of the Gift of the Holy Ghost. The need of it in our lives and the need of the church as a body being spirit filled. There was one addition to the church. On the fourth Sunday, May 27, the services will be held in the new building 15th and Los Angeles Street. At 3:00 o'clock Rev. Rozier will preach the sermon. All who love the Lord are urged to be present. The membership is planning to make this a great day. Come where the old time Gospel is preached. LINCOLN MEMORIAL CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 34th Street and Central Avenue. Rev. E. E. Lightner, Pastor. Two splendid services have been arranged for the worshippers at this Church Snuady, May 27th. The Pastor will occupy the pulpit at the morning hour. In the evening our monthly musical program will be rendered. Some new talent has been secured for this occasion and an excellent program is promised. You are invited to worship with us at both these services. The past Sunday was a good day with us. "Safe Deposits" was the subject of the Pastor's morning message as he spoke the appreciative audience assembled, ext: "Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven where moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal." (Matt. 6:20). In the evening Dr George C. Chalmers Richmond spoke on "American Leadership." Atty. E. Burton Cerutt ably introduced the speaker. A cordial welcome awaits you at all times. WALL ST.

Scripture reading—Acts 20:17 to 28. In the evening F. C. Cothran preached. Subject, "The end of the Jewish dispensation and the beginning of the Christian dispensation. An excellent doctrinal sermon. It was edifying and the audience seemed to appreciate it very much. Rev. Cothran will preach for us again next Lord's day at 11:00 a. m.. We wish to make welcome all who wish to worship with us.. Elders: HOLLINS, BOOTH AND HOPPER. FIRST A. M. E. ZION CHURCH—Corner Pico and Paloma Rev. W. E. Shaw, Pastor. Residence 1217 Paloma Ave. Sunday, May 27th will be known in our church as "Woman's Day." Every body knows what this feans. The gentler sex will have full sway. The Rev. Mrs. Palmer will preach at 11:00 a.m. There will be afternoon services as well as evening by the women. Do not fail to hear Mrs. Mrs. Palmer. There are few pastors who equal her in preaching her word and a precept our few who excel her in her own way and manner this noted divine will bring to us a burning message pointing the only true way to God and righteousness. Excellent program! Women! Women! Women! Your opportunity. Sunday, May 27th is to show what you can do. Let the men sit up and take notice. Rev. W. E. Shaw prescheduled last Sunday morning from St. John 14:21. This was another of the excellent type of sermons Rev. Shaw continues to bring to us. He is giving us the unadulterated Truth whether we take heed to it or not. Rev. Burton a visiting minsister preached at the evening hour. His theme was "The Open, Door." The Bible Class nad C. E.

Kinney. musical program will be held in connection and furnished by the Brotherhood. Make this your church home.. In the absence of the pastor, Rev. Robinson was designated to portray the message Sunday morning and it suffices to say that he did it in a most excellent, and scholarly manner. In the evening Rev. Shaw returned to the pulpit and delivered a Pentecostal sermon, in his usual able and efficient style. Much effort is being exerted to increase the evening congregations and one of the most plausible plans put forward is the rendition on the magnificent organ by Mrs. Markham of select and beautiful numbers each Sunday evening. The choir came in for a lion's share of favorable comment and congratulations for its marvelous display of untiring effort and racial pride on Saturday evening in the Music Parade. Wesley can justly feel proud of it. The Young People's League which meets each Sunday evening from 6:20 to 7:20 is growing in rapid strides due to the interesting discussions and sincere study for one hour. The Literary Department opens with a boom the first Tuesday evening in June. Every effort is being made to so organize the church and people that everyone will feel that it is not the pastor's or a few individual's church but a church for all.

The Sunday School was well attended, offering good, scholars cheerful. At the morning service the pastor spoke from the text, "Take ye the unprofitable servant, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. The congregation present, was deeply interested. The Endeavor was better attended than it has been for some time the young people taking an active part in it. At night, Brother Williams spoke from the text, "Thou therefore my son, be strong in the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ." Next Sunday will be our big rally day. Come over and help us. FIRST A. M. E.

Mrs. Lula Slaughter registered the thermometer for the clubs on the even side and Lawyer Willis O. Tyler from the clubs on the odd side. The day closed with Mrs. Slaughter in the lead but both sides ran nearly together. It was pronounced a wonderful rally because more people had a part in it. The minister desires all captains to report in full if possible Sunday, as he wants to leave on Monday for a little vacation in the far East. Being a member of the Board at Western University he will be present at the commencement. The Sunday School drive is advancing nicely.

The boys are slightly leading the girls in the big Sunday School membership drive. The Deaconess board gave a surprise party for its president Mrs. E.

NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION There are several misunderstandings concerning the coming of the Convention in September next, yet we are asking the public not to be discouraged or mis-led, as there is all surety of its coming, though several traitors are using their utmost endeavors to discourage the official heads concerning the efforts being made by the different local committees. Yop have your reason in doing so yet your sins will surely find you out. I know of your secret actions. "But never wake a lion when he is asleep!" W. A. T. PARKINSON.
