Mrs. May Gibbons came along in her automobile at a 25-mile clip and drove directly into the crowd scattering them right and left and she kept on driving. She was pursued by a policeman and held. The result of her rash act was several persons injured and two killed outright—E. Fisher (white) and Miss M. Martin (Colored). At a Coroner's Jury trial held on last Wednesday at Roberts & Sons. The jury held Mrs. Gibbons for manslaughter. Mrs. Gibbons is evidently obeying well the instructions of her counsel as she absolutely refuses to make any statement whatever. In the meantime she is held in the county jail awaiting trial. Whether she was drunk, got arrested or lost control, it will take a trial of the case to decide. A. M. E. CONFERENCE CLOSES AT OAKLAND DRASTIC CHANGES MADE IN DISTRICT. CALIFORNIA DIVIDED INTO TWO CONFERENCES NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN Rev. A. M. Ward is made Presiding Elder for Northern District. Rev. J. H. Wilson is Presiding Elder for Southern District. for Southern District. Former Presiding Elder James Washington assigned to San Bernardino. W. D. Miller of Temple, Texas, assigned to Historic 8th and Towne Avenue Church. Special reports from the A. M. E. Conference just adjourned at Oakland indicate radical changes in the western branch of Methodism. The California Conference has been divided into two district—Northern and Southern. The Northern District comprises all territory north of Santa Barbara and the Southern District comprises all territory in Southern California south of Santa Barbara. REV. W. D. MILLER, TEMPLE, TEX AS, ASSGNED TO 8TH & TOWNE The noted silver-tongued Divine, W. D. Miller from Temple, Texas, was transferred from the Texas Conference and assigned to the pastorate of Historic 8th and Towne Ave. Church. Dr. Miller comes here with an enviable reputation as a high class, able and broad gauged Christian gentleman and much enthusiasm is manifest, for under his leadership it is most certain that 8th and Towne will regain its place as one of the leading. If not the leading, Church in this section. REV. WARD GOES NORTH Rev. A. M. Ward who has pastured here during the past five years has been moved from this section and therefore will labor in a different vineyard altogether. Rev. James Washington who has for the past few years been Presiding Elder for the Southern District, has been assigned a charge at Ben Barrardino. This is a demotion and there are many who denounce the action of those responsible for this affront to a faithful servant. We are not fortified with any information into state the circumstances which caused this situation, but we do know and can testify to the great work which this minister had performed and even though he was to be changed from this work, to our min, he had earned more timely consideration than that which seems to be his lot. REV. PRICE TO SAN DIEGO Rev. J. W. Price of Watts, was sent to San Diego. This is a promotion and a deserving one and we congratulate the Bishop upon this deserving recognition to a faithful servant. PRESIDING ELDER WILSON Rev. J. H. Wilson was assigned as Presiding Elder from the Northern District to the Southern. This is his home and of course more preferable to him. Rev. Wilson is the father of the California Conference, has accomplished yoeman service for the same, and if consideration is to be shown there is nothing in the Conference that should be ignored for him. His fame extends wherever Methodism goes, and nobody covariant with the church and its work could complain of this assignment. Broad-ganged and generous, to a fault the district will continue to thrive and grow under his administration. In our next issue we will give entire list of appointments made at Oakland on last Monday. STATE COMMISSION ORDERS K. K. K. AND OTHER SYMBOLS RE-MOVED AS ADVERTISING Sacramento, Sept. M.—The lettering of the State highways with symbols and signs of the Ku Klux Klan or any other organization lacking authority to make use of the public roads for advertising purposes, has been ordered stopped forthwith by the State Highway Commission. The commission also has taken steps to have any existing signs removed. It was announced today. The order is the result of complaints concerning the painting of the letters "K. K. K." and "KIGY" on State highways in various sections of California, particularly in the southern part of the State, on the San Francisco peninsula and between Sacramento and Marysville. The letters "KIGY" are commonly interpreted to mean, "Klansman, I Greet You!" On a number of occasions recently this symbol has mysteriously appeared on the highways in districta where the Klan has held initiations.—L. A. Times. DR. PROWD RETURNS FROM VA CATION AT SANTA BARBARA Rev. H. D. Prowd returned this week from his well-earned vacation, and will fill his pulpit on Sunday. His stay at Santa Barbara was most enjoyable and also profitable. Conditions at that place among our colored people are most favorable. The Rev. H. B. Thomas and his estimable wife are the leaders; and they are doing the work right. This remarkable, un-assuming man, exemplary man ought to be congratulated for the stand he takes in the business world, and the encouragement which he gives to others of the race, say Dr. Prowd. Heor Dr. Prowd at the Botel Baptist Church, holding services at the Y. M. C. A., 9th and Hemlock Sta., Sunday. Pan American Donates Use Of Station To Charity Pan American Donates Use Of Station To Charity On last Monday night the Woman's Auxiliary to the Dunbairn Hospital gave an open air dance at the Pan American Service Station, 80th and Central Avenue. Through the courtesy of the Company they were donated the use of the station from 3 P. M. until 12. A large crowd was on hand and enjoyed to its fullest the good music supplied. The affair was unique in that it was held at a Gas and Oil Station. The station is one of some thirty odd recently erected by this company and the entire surface being concrete furnished an A1 platform. The Auxiliary which raises funds for worthy and needy patients of Dunbairn Hospital wish to thank the public and particularly the Pan American Oil Company for assisting them to make it a success, by granting them permission to use the Station. Colleges Open With Large Attendance RACE STUDENTS THRONG AT GATES OF LEARNING (Staff Correspondence) With an attendance unprecedented in the annals of American education, local colleges and universities opened their doors last week to the youths of the Southland. From various parts of the country and from this locality and vicinity the names of new and old students fill the registers of both the University of southern California Southern Branch and the University of Southern California. Both colleges have augmented their program in the way of new buildings and more adequate facilities to take care of the large attendance. At the University of Southern California, a science building with every modern facility has been recently completed. This building will house the departments of chemistry, biology, zoology, bacteriology and pharmacy and offers special advantages to Race students, since so many are enrolled in the foregoing departments. It was created at a cost of several thousand dollars as part of the program of the university in its drive por $10,000,000. And for the first time in its history, the Southern Branch of the University of California will confer upon students completing four years of college work the degree of bachelor of arts. Many other improvements have been added at this college as a result of an enlarged allowance in its endowment fund. The interest manifested by Negro students deserves an editorial all to itself. Most of the old students are returning and many new students have made their debut upon the campuses of both schools. The exact number of those enrolled at either local college cannot be accurately determined at this writing. But it is held that the attendance is equal to, if not slightly larger than, that of just 70%. Notably among the returning to the campus of the University of Southern California area: Miss Roma Mackler, Upallon chapter, Delta Sigma Sigma Security, student in the College of Music Miss Portis Broyles, Upallon chapter, Delta Sigma Theta, candidate for the degree of Bachelor of Art; Mr. Lluga Griffith, Lamade chapter, Omega Psi Fraternity, candidate for Eureka Villa Wins THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN IS SUPPORTING A PROGRAM FOR HOME-OWNED MOTORCYCLES.

The organization was founded at the University in 1922 with James McGregor as president. Its object being to bring together students of formed literary tastes for the purpose of creating and stimulating an interest in polite literature. Lloyd Griffith is president for the year 1924-1925, and membership is by invitation. Annual Programs The month or May will mark the opening of several educational programs which will be sponsored by local sororities and fraternities.

Inter-Frater Council Attempts art being made by several individual members of six local fraternity and society chapters to organise an inter-fraternial central council. The object of this council, it is said, will be to promote better ideals among college head people, and, incidentally, to foster various movements for the good of the community.

His coming to the Pacific Coast at this time is marked with unusual interest an importance. There was never a greater need for the message that he brings than the fact that invisible forces are militating against us and these forces are so densely and frivolous that only a master mind could furnish counter contrivances. To urge that every man and woman of our race hear the lecture is only our appeal to you in the interest of your race; for it is just now in the most critical period of its existence as a race. Hipe with experience, matured with age, stepped in the philosophy that justify the ways of the old man, Dr. Duman, the greatest friend of them, will make your hands flow and quake.

We hope he enjoys the conference very much indeed, and we, as people, hope to enjoy his return to us for one or more years, as to lose him at this time as pastor of the A. M. E.

ALL-RACE CAMPAIGN CONERENCE CALLED Best way to use vote power of race to secure rights to be object of convention. Equal rights League urges race to common understanding and unity of race program as race divides vote among whites. SPECIAL Boston, Mass., Sept. 15, 1924:—Colored America, come together in Conference among ourselves on civil disabilities peculiar to ourselves. For such an intra-racial convention during this unusual national political campaign this call is issued to the race for the 17th Annual Meeting of the National Equal Rights League in Holy Trinity Baptist Church, Brooklyn, N.Y., October 9, 10, and 11, 1924. With all Colored America invited to come and send representatives the paramount issue of the national colored Assembly under the apprehension the League is to be "How American Citizens of African descent and extraction can use the potential ballot power of their racial element most effectively to abolish all civil distinctions, and political denials and deprivations and dangers to life because of color. A new and unique situation is here, thank God! A strong third ticket; no real Southerner on any ticket; the democrats head, and third party head, a Republican, openly anti-Klan; the Republican head from Massachusetts; our women voting with experience for the first time; our disfranchised element move north and really voting for the first time since Reconstruction. What wonder civic champions and noted politicians are out for a dividing campaign? Unwise, sad if not suicidal, would it be for us to go into this dividing among the white politicians, for white candidates, should we have no common understanding, no concert of aim, no conference on progra and demand for these who may be elected to govern us and the nation. The League calls Colored America to assemble in conference among ourselves with none others interfering as a group federally segregated, jim-crowed, disfranchised, denied rights, and recognition as others are not and lynched, on methods for this crisis opportunity, and for a united program in race demands. Already too much argument. Hasten. Prepare for representation at Brooklyn. Every race body is eligible to send delegates who sit in equality with league delegates for this Get-Together. It is too crucial to all to be confined to any one organization, though and the auspices of a body with faithful and special equality and open to every race believer in that cause. Every community, be effectively represented by delegates from Equal Rights Committees which loyal race members are hereby authorized to organize.

COMMUNITY CHEST PRESS SERVICE Lip Angeles cities will be asked to contribute to the Community Chest fund during a campaign to be conducted November 10-20. While much has been said and written concerning the Community Chest, there are still many people who have not a clear idea concerning the need to undertake. For that reason comprehensive outline of the Community Chest plan, as it is now in operation in 208 American cities, is given here. The Community Chest is a result of war days, when campaigns for money were constantly occurring. Certain cities at that time conceived the project of uniting the independent drivers for funds into one federated campaign. Proceeds of this campaign went into a "war chest" and each organization participating in the campaign received its allotments from the chest. The amount of these allotments were set before the campaign took place. This method proved so satisfactory, to both the public and the organizations seeking funds, that the cities adopted the model of financing a sustainable and welfare institutions following the war days. The "War Chest" became the "Community Chest." The plan proved beneficial in peace just as it had in war time. More and more cities seeing the excellent results attained from the Community Chest method adopted it until there are now 208 cities having organized Community Chests with more organizing for campaigns at the present time. The purpose of the Community Chest is to raise the contributions needed for the maintenance expenses of philanthropy and social agencies which serve the public regardless of race, creed, or color. These contributions are secured in a joint financial campaign in which all participating agencies share. The amount each agency is to receive is carefully figured out by a budget committee consisting of responsible and experienced citizens. Expenditures made and services rendered during the past three years are taken into consideration in arriving at each agency's allotment. The total of the individual agency allotments is the Community Chest campaign goal. In participating in this federated campaign the charitable and welfare agencies abandon their individual drives for maintenance funds as all of their needs are met in the Community Chest budget. Thus the agency workers themselves are relieved from having to spend much of their time in efforts to secure financial support. The public is protected from continual fines, days personal and solicitation, and his dismantle that money contributed to the Community Chest will go to a worthy cause. Busy men and women are relieved from being constantly asked to serve in philanthropic drives. At the same time a sense of individual responsibility toward charitable duties is created by the Community Chest system. More money is secured from more people with less effort and far less expense on the part of those who serve as solicitors and workers. The cost of a Community Chest campaign is about $100,000 of the amount raised. Individual campaigns have cost from 15 to 30 per cent, and often more, of the sum raised. The Community Chest plan, therefore, means that far more of the money subscribed goes to the purpose for which it was intended. The Chest itself does not attempt to dictate general administrative policies. Such functions belong to the directors and trustees of each organization. It does, however, provide a meeting and formal discussion of the matters will be no overlooking or overlapping in the way of social effort aimed to meet the social needs of the community. The Board of Directors of the Community Chest is composed of public spirted men and women, who will direct its policies. These citizens give generously of their time, service and money, and many of them will be among the largest individual contributors to the Chest. ANNOUNCEMENT Mme.

We rejoiced to note the continual increase in numbers, interest and finance. A lecture contest was on last Lord's day. The Superintendent gave a prize to the student who gave the best talk on the subject: "Opportunities." Many good lectures were made at the close of the lesson study period: At eleven o'clock the Choir directed by Mrs. F. B. Miller rendered as usual good music. Mrs. Sterling Lee 'song a very lovely solo, "Only a Touch." Miss Tathm playing. Subject of the eleven o'clock sermon "Found," Heb. 2.3.3, "The Result of Negligence."

APOSTOLIC FAITH ASSEMBLY 1122 East 23rd Street Elder F. I. Donglass, Pastor The service of Sunday past was wonderful. The glory, of God filled the house all day, even from the opening of Sunday School of the usual hour, 10 A. M. o'clock to 11 a. m. after which songs of praises were sung until every heart was inspired and blessed with the glory of God. Following this refreshing season Elder Lee who formerly held the mission in charge on Compton Ave. and 23rd St. read Ps. 24. The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof the world and they that dwell therein. And desirable song was sung by audience led by Sis. V. Williams—Saviour lead me lest I stray, as the pastor filled the pulpit for the morning message, taking his text from Isa. 42:13. The Lord shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war; and God inspired him to pgeach the word with great grace—and the amounting of the Lord was upon him. We must thank God for the wonderful move which he has made in bringing about the union of worshipping together the two Assemblies. The evening message Sunday was strong and appealing as our pastor spoke from the word of God: Isa. 43:8—Bring forth the blind people that have eyes and the deaf people that have ears. And the word of God which is quick and powerful, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joint and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Brought conviction to some of whom two applied for baptism in the precious name of our Lord while many hands were raised for prayer and the sick prayed for also. We are expecting these wonderful meetings to continue both being and making a blessing to many. FIRST A. M. E.

HOWARD, ASSISTANT TO ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES, CHALLENGEES FORMER ATTORNEY GENERAL LEWIS TO A JOINT DEBATE Washington, D. C., September 22, 1924 - Pointing out to William H. Lewis of Boston, Assistant Attorney General of the United States under the Taft administration, that it would have been better for him to have fought out his differences with the Republican Party than to have debashed himself by bolting to the Democratic party, which has always been inimical to the rights and aspirations of colored Americans, Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney General, in an open letter, challenges him to defend his position in a joint debate lest he be charged with ingratitude. Democratic Evils Mr. Howard sarcastically invites Mr. Lewis to reflect upon the conduct of the Democratic party toward the Negro. He directs his attention to the greatest evils from which the Negro suffers and puts the responsibility for their existence upon the Democratic party. They are, he says, disfranchisement, segregation, peonage, lynching, inequitable division of taxes for school purposes and jim crow car laws. The full text of his letter challenging Mr. Lewis to debate the issues of the campaign affecting the Negro is as follows: "My dear Will: 'I am pointfully surprised at your desertion of the Republican party in midstream. My pain is intensified by the reflection that you have been given higher recognition by the Republican party than any other colored man in its history. The prestige and lucrative practice you now enjoy are due in largest measure to the honors the party conferred upon you both as an Assistant United States Attorney in Boston and as Attorney General of the United States. Republicans Did All "PerLape the Republican party has not done all it coul dor should have done, but you must admit that it has done all that has been done forour group, whether in the emancipation of our fathers or the civic recognition of us, their offspring. It would have been better to have threshed out your complaints within the ranks of the party than to have fled to illus you know not of. "Will ou kindly reflect upon the good things done for the Negro by the Democratic party? They are naught. On the other hand, we may charge the Democratic party with the following crimes, to wit: (1) distranchisement; (2) segregation; (3) peonage; (4) lynching and burning human beings; (5) inequitable division or taxes for educational purposes; (6) jim crow car laws; (7) hostile legislation at every opportunity. "As to what the Republican party has done on the other side of the ledger, it is unnecessary for me to enumerate, as these matters are fresh within your memory, including the recognition of your own aspirations as set out above. "May I ask, do you believe that the twelve millions of our group in this country would be as safe under an administration of John W. Davis and Charles W. Bryan, with their advisers of Heffin and Caraway, as under the safe and sane Coolidge and the indomitable Dawes aided by the outstanding political factors in the Republician party? "Will you not admit that during a period of one year President Coolidge has done as much in a substantial way for our group as any president, and certainly more than any Democratic President, during the same time notwithstanding the fact that he has been handicapped by an unfriendly Senate?" Challenge "If you sincerely believe in the propaganda you are broadcasting, I most respectfully challenge you t on joint debate on the issues involved affecting our group between the two major parties, on any date that may suit your convenience and at any time that you may designate; the debate to be managed by M. William C. Matthews, the national organizer among colored voters for the Republican party and Mr. Ferdinand Q. Morton, the representative of the Democratic party. "May I add that the great preponderating mass of the colored electorate are disappointed in your attitude and it would be very much to your credit to appear in debate and defend your position lest you be charged with smiting the hand that lifted you up. "Sincerely yours. "PERRY W. HOWARD."

A condition of that kind in Los Angeles wou mediate starvation for the rank and file of tonsor Central avenue. LYNCHING AT THE VANISHING POINT. The record for lynching in the United States six months in 1924 is the lowest for the same per years. The religious fanatics will say that this is due Five thousand women workers in Germany were recently discharged because of bobbed hair. A condition of that kind in Los Angeles would mean immediate starvation for the rank and file of tonsorial artists of Central avenue. LYNCHING AT THE VANISHING POINT. The record for lynching in the United States for the first six months in 1924 is the lowest for the same period in forty years. The religious fanatics will say that this is due to the spread of Christendom in the more barbarous districts of the solid South. The Republican, knowing of the power of a rash generation, will remark that it is due to Coolidge's fiery denunciation of the Klan (7). The Democrat will say that it is due to the wise and efficient leadership of Democratic governors. The Fundamentalist will say that it is due to the law enacted by the Texas legislature forbidding the teaching of Darwin's theory of evolution. "Jask Moonfizer" will say that it is due to the "teaching of "Jack Moonfizer" will say that it is due to the "teaching of common sense," which would be nonsense. And each member of every other clique, whether political or religious, or whatnot, will have his pet reason to assign to the marked decrease in lynch law. But, no diree! We indignantly protest. They are all wrong. The lack of public interest during the last six months of this year in the great American pastime of burning Negroes at the stake and dragging helpless Negro women through the streets of Waco, Texas, is due to: (1) the agitation produced by the Dyer Anti-Lynch bill; (2) to the constructive work of the Inter-Racial Commission; (3) to the exodus from the South. Just let these three forces continue to work within our social, economic, and political affairs, and lynching will gradually become as extinct as the dodo. Forty years from now, some learned professor lecturing on what we might call the Post War Period of Economic Unrest, will point out to his students these three factors as having relegated to the National Museum of Unpopular American Pastimes the institution of lynch law and mob rule. It is pleasant to dwell upon this thought. Is it not? ...ECONOMIC BASIS OF CRIME. During the months of July and August, New York was the scene of a shocking series of murders of a description. The cause of this sweeping wave of crime to District Attorney Banton, was due to the fact which enveloped Manhattan during the months of August. To attribute crime to climatic conditions is so coming a new invention of District Attorneys. When it is to be attributed to their having sued sociology something to do with the matter, but that alone does cern us here. Intense heat may cause men lacking self-po-commit criminal acts, but does the District Attorney York City take into consideration such factors as economic pressure? A study of economic history shows that from the of the Industrial Revolution, crime and lawlessness apart throughout the world. Up to that time, no apers or overt acts of violence or lawlessness were criminologists of those days as they are known to call of our day. In France, where crime abounded in many other capitol of Europe, the only crimes known authorities were those relating to politics and faction. This is fully described in "Famous French Murderer's". No other forces of commanding import as has been at work in the perpetration of crime other countries of the continent, the same things if not more eloquently, true. We are not overlooking the lack of public impunity of criminals, or are we forgetting that adequate penalties frequently encourage crime. To emphasize that with the progression of time, with of capitalism, crime has been and will always be daily table talk. Under the pressure of having to subsist upon wage, those who have been forced to commit un-are legion.

At least the psychologist doesn't that we would remind District Attorney Banton, crime is sometimes attributable to climatic forces logically attributable to economic forces. Argentina boasts of more heat than the United manufacture with its surplus supply of coke, coal and electricity. Yet the City of Los Angeles alone of more lawlessness and contempt for law than in America. District Attorney Banton must have just con- of the influence of some high brow sociologist who statement. We advise him to read "The Cry During the months of July and August, New York City was the scene of a shocking series of murders of almost every description. The cause of this sweeping wave of crime, according to District Attorney Banton, was due to the intense heat which enveloped Manhattan during the months of July and August. To attribute crime to climatic conditions is seemingly becoming a new invention of District Attorneys. Whether or not it is to be attributed to their having sued sociology may have something to do with the matter, but that alone does not concern us here. Intense heat may cause men lacking self-possession to commit criminal acts, but does the District Attorney of New York City take into consideration such factors as poverty and economic pressure? A study of economic history shows that from the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, crime and lawlessness became rampant throughout the world. Up to that time, no appealing murders or overt acts of violence or lawlessness were known to criminologists of those days as they are known to criminologists of our day. In France, where crime abounded more than in any other capitol of Europe, the only crimes known to police authorities were those relating to politics and family discord. This is fully described in "Famous French Murders" (Scribner's). No other forces of commanding import are recorded as having been at work in the perpetration of crime. Of the other countries of the continent, the same things are equally, if not more eloquently, true. We are not overlooking the lack of public interest in the punishment of criminals, or are we forgetting that lax and inadequate penalities frequently encourage crime. But we wish to emphasize that with the progression of time, with the growth of capitalism, crime has been and will always be a topic for daily table talk. Under the pressure of having to subsist upon a meagre wage, those who have been forced to commit unlawful acts are legion. You may divest a man of his reputation. You may divest him of his social position; but when you take from him his last crust of bread and prevent him from getting other crusts from other sources, his immediate reaction is to stay. No other course is open. At least the psychologist doesn't think so. We would remind District Attorney Banton that, while crime is sometimes attributable to climatic forces, it is more logically attributable to economic forces. Argentina boasts of more heat than the United States can manufacture with its surplus supply of coke, coal, wood, gas and electricity. Yet the City of Los Angeles alone is the scene of more lawlessness and contempt for law than all of South America. District Attorney Banton must have just come from out of the influence of some high brow sociologist when he made that statement. We advise him to read "The Cry for Justice."

FAY JACKSON M. Gide is today regarded as one of the foremost masters of prose in France and his influence in literature has been comparable to that of Reny de Gourmont. His vogue in Germany and Italy is enormous and even England also has begun to feel it. "Strait is the Gate" is a beautiful book... beautiful like the 4th echo of cathedral chimes, or the smell of dying violets on a warm breeze. It is a novel of distinct originality concerning the love-affair of two children brought up in an environment of strict puritanism who consequently conceive a disgust for sensuality, postponing their engagement until the girl will not exchange the ostacy of renunciation for the ordinary consequences to marital affection. One who reads this novel sympathetically can easily see that the girl who cries out near the end of her diary: "Some kind of strange transparent bondage over my eyes seems to show me his image everywhere—his image magnified, and all love's rays are concentrated on a single burning spot in my heart—O jealous God, who has despoiled me, take Thou possession of my heart—has lived as intensely in her own way as she would have done had her ardour subsided into the tranquility of married life.

It sets out grimly to paint to paint the decay of an average middleclass American marriage—a marriage which eventually collapses, not from any overt acts of violence or unfairness but through a slow and pernicious boredom which atrophies the protagonist. As such, it is studiously honest, faithful, and intelligent—and a bit dull. CONSTANCE TOWNSEND. A story of college life which, while depleting such parts of the usual college education as petting parties, crap games, booze parties, "bull" sessions, and other academic escapades, touchingly relates that high idealism which most students take with them when they first enter the grim confines of the academic call. Ye rosey-eyed optimists, who think that the transition from high school to college is unbelievably easy, and who are wont to ever that college is a place of discipline and restraint, just spend a night reading Mr. Mark's story and you shall have every reason to change your opinions. I pass it on to lovers of a good story as a worthy sequel to Upton Sinclair's "The Goose-Step." The introduction by Karl Van Veteken of Ronald Schärke a nds book *The Art of the Unique* is intended for the unique ingenuity of the author and the unusual character of the book. "Francing Nigger" is supposed to be a study of West Indian life and manners. Firbanks does not impress his reader, however, that he is actually picturing West Indian life. It seems to the reader that he is using a very vivid and rare imagination to conjure up his sketches. There are traces of expression in description of certain messages of the book, but these qualities do not impress the reader drops to the other extreme with expressions that are positively crude. This is Bryan's first novel published in America. There are typically a few people who will appreciate the author's efforts, but the majority will find very little attraction in "Francing Nigger." Mrs. Rhinehart writes a superb mastery of the technique of the short story: She draws most of her characters from life and injects certain elements of interest and suspense that hold the reader from the first page to the last; and her stories have a united effect either in characterization, theme or atmosphere. "People," the latest collection of her stories, is a free exemplification of her consumptive mastery of the reader. The least excomiast will agree that she warrants the distinction recently given her as "the woman Roopettel". "Waste" is not only one of the most intelligent and penetrating criticisms of American life and morals from the administration of Grover Cleveland to that of Calvin Coolidge. It is a work of consumate beauty as well. The characterization is splendid; the plot, flawless; and the narrative unfolds with subtlety and glamour. It places Mr. Herrick in the first rank of officers and possesses more organic unity in person of deft handling of incidents, characterism and plot, than Homely Lilia." And Jarvis Thornton, his hero, seems to really live as a person of flesh and bone. Philip Gibbs turns from his work as newspaper correspondent to discuss the normality of the Younger Generation and the problems they must solve in this highly complex and really baffling civilization. As a problem novel, it is more excellently done that many of the "best sellers" of this or any season for that matter. His insight and sympathetic understanding of the problems of youth seems to me to be more genuine and convincing that Scott Pitgerald's and many of the other more or less popular protagonists of the Younger Generation in fiction. C. T. WHAT THE OTHERS THINK A SYMPOSIUM OF SIGNIFICANT UTTERANCES Collected From the Newspapers of the World By: THE STAFF "Much of what Lenin attempted to build has already crumbled. His dream of world-revolution has never been realized and, one by one, his economic theories have been abandoned. And yet his revolution will have an indelible mark on the history of his country. In one tremendous surgical operation he cut away the dead flesh of centuries, and in the space of a few years brought Russia out of the Middle Ages into the modern world. . . . A new life is beginning—a life which has its pulse in the newly awakened masses of the people.—For all time, and to all countries, his revolution will stand out as a terrible example of the fate which must inevitably overtake any form of society which is built up on the selfish pleasures of the few at the expense of the starvation and the sufferings of the many. R. H. BRUCE LOCKHART. In the Edinburgh Review. THE BASIS OF GOOD JUDGMENT In all the schools of political science good government is now described in terms of organization and discipline, and not in terms of race. The realism that thus governs political science may reasonably be expected to have some practical results. The hope of political improvement lies less in the education of the people than in the education of those who become their masters, especially the military dictators whose democratic corruption always throws up. HENRY J. FORD. In the American Mercury. THE CONGRESSIONAL "BLOC" "Another menace, perhaps the greatest, which interferes with the smooth working of our legislative bodies, is the group attitude or the formation of so-called "bloos" with the membership of the Shatt and the use each of its proscriptive or injurious of about the same proportional size. This small group of irreconcilables has not sufficient numbers to put over legislation of its own; its strength SOME "COMMON SENSE" Comparisons & Reviews BY: "TWINKLING STAR" One of the many reasons why we have so much fighting and such little progress among us as a race is because (1) we do not respect authority, (2) we do not distinguish in men according to their special merit and ability. Everybody wants to be a leader and everybody wants to lead in everything. As an example of the above note the following: (1) A man who trained himself for the ministry is not content to confine his leadership to the fields of religion, but shoves his head up, under cover, for leadership in journalism; (2) the fellow who can hardly pronounce CAT and RAT is an authority on political economy; (3) he have made special studies and researches in economics; (3) a dentist, who hardly follows the literature of his profession, much less any other type of literature, is, by self choice, an authority on law and social problems; (4) the man who studied law holds contempt for and is ready to join issue with the man who is a sociologist by force of study! We say again that it is one' of the painful revelations of our lack of sturdy knowledge of people that, we do not see, individual authority. In this we are disciples of the white man's thinking. We are all alike to lies in its ability to act as a balance of power in a division along party lines, where the voting power of the major parties is nearly equal. The "bloe" is destructive rather than constructive in its effect; it can defeat legislation but cannot create it, and the menace consists in a multiplicity of these blocs resulting in a coalition form of government, or government by compromise rather than by the will of the majority, a state of affairs which has caused the downfall of many a republic." CHARLES BROWN. In Scribner's Magazine. THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY "The Democratic Party is concerned chiefly with human rights" according to its recent platform. It need not be pointed out that it was the party of slavery, and of which today a Southern States under its control, maintains a contract prison system, and tolerates a peonage system, both of which have been termed by Southern lawmakers themselves as "relics of barbarism" STUART A. RICE. FOOLING THE FARMER "So far as it affects the farmer, the Tariff of Abominations was framed to deceive. The farmer is taxed on paint for his barn, glass for his house, cement for his silo; on nails, horseshoes, saws, clippers, knives. No there is not much uncertainty of what the tariff does with the goods no one sells free-free trade market and buys on a protective market." From the New York World. PLIGHT OF RUSSIA "The disappearance of Russia's spiritual life快 reaches a sensational point. Where the magnificent edifices welcomed their thousands of worshipers museums will welcome, at a price, curious visitors. The Russia of today forgets her noble post. Christendom will note the pathos and the terrible tragedy." From the Boston Transcript. him. And to each one of us we are alike to one another! He judges us by our SKINS, but differentiates between his own people. As to ourselves, we unconsciously lie down upon his judgment but consciously assist him to make the distinctions among his own folks! A thief is a thief, whether he steals money, baggage, clothing, thoughts, words or phrases. The moral quality of the act remains the same. It is only honest personal toll and struggle that will keep us in honest independence. Men may legitimately possess and use what is not theirs by the honest method of borrowing (however sultifying to individual development this may be), but if we borrow let us be sure to give credit to the fellow from whom we borrowed. It is a social procedure invariably expressed in economic transactions. It should no less be respected in intellectual transactions. To give credit for what we borrow in intellectual and literary affairs, we use the quotation marks in writing and sometimes disclose the author's name, whilst in oral expression, when we do not disclose the original author, moral decency should impel us to call our audience that the thoughts we express are not ours. An indefensible piece of plagiarism which recently came to our notice impelled the above expression. A weekly Southern California sheet produced in San Diego, purports to convey each week original gems of thought. In one of its issues we found, grouped together, a table of short, pithy expressions. We remembered leading these very thoughts in a foreign literary periodi- cal now some three years old. We patched to car files. There were these years tabulated in the very same manuscript as produced in the California sheet music the author, Marshal Field. He gave credit for them in the forbidden periodical while the San Diego weekly published them under the name of one of its local contributors, and that without quotation marks! If you are compelled to borrow the other fellow's intellectual product, whether in oral or written form, be square about it and give him the credit for it by either using a pair of inverted commas as the beginning and the end of it, or placing his name against it first, and yours last. It is only a mark of personal integrity to do this. It is the glory and culture of scholars. We are sincerely wondering just how our good and able friend, John W. Davis feels after that masterly indictment by the former United States Attorney General, Harry M. Daugherty? Daugherty had the facts and he used the facts with unerring logic, mark you. And Mr. Republican, what about La-Follette? That old radical cueing political summer salts all over the country—do you realize it? We are not against a radical who can give us something better than that which he seeks to eradicate. But that kind of radical, like Robert LaFollette, who plainly indicates, by his utterances, that what he has in store for us is worse than what we at present enjoy is a dangerous enemy who should be smitten at the polls. We wish to congratulate Jack Moonfixer for his quotation from Alexander Pope last week. Whether by its use he proved himself to be, or not to be a good "intellectual slave", "intellectual mechanic", "intellectual underling" or "intellectual parrot", it simply goes to show that, as a man who makes pretensions to having done some reading, he will many times find himself unconsciously compelled to reach, back to greater minds and authorities than his own for support. Whether or not Jack Moonfixer, in his quotation from Alexander Pope last week "over-emphasized mere memory"—whether or not we accept the philosophy of Pope as therein expressed—we repeat that we congratulate him for its use, and express the suspicion that he must, himself, have been reading after, and thinking about us a great deal why he retreated from his path of "originality and genius" to one of the masters of the past! We cannot subscribe to Jack Moonfizer's boast that his column has "popularized Common Sense." Neither shall we admit that what he has written is tantamount to "Vice", even if, according to the quotation, we later, pitted and then embraced it because familiar with it. What we do concede is that much of his "stuff" has drawn the fire of critical analyses and comparisons. His broad, general and unqualified statement that "some folks who abhorred every word we said in the beginning. . . . are turning out the same kind of stuff" is typical of the man! Surely it is far from accurate to say that his critics "abhorred every word" he said, and that they are "turning out the same kind of stuff". When will this wise philosopher (?) learn that the making of distinctions is incapably fundamental to logical accuracy? For our part we have never condemned "every word" he said, and if we thought that our "Comparisons and Reviews" of some of his writings were "the same kind of stuff" which he produces as "Common Sense" we would cause our efforts at once! As he so often does with others, SEVENTEEN we could, ourselves, mock him for troubling the "departed spirit" of Pope but intelligence—sheer intelligence—dictates this to be immature and childish. We know too well, as we reflect on Marden, Smiles, DuBois, Kelly Miller, Agnes Replier, and a host of other splendid writers, what force, authority and dignity a quoted passage from the work of recognized greatness lends to one's written or spoken utterances. Ministers are supposed to be the people's spiritual servants, but some of them evidently think that they are both the spiritual and temporal bosses of the people. Sometimes we hear this kind of not expressed by, self-classified social "high-flyers", "tea-pourers", and "jaggongers": "Oh, they are not in our class! What is "class" among colored folks, on any kind of folks, anyhow? The only class that the world finally recognises and applauds is that which, by brains and character together with honest endeavor, demonstrates its distinction from, and superlority to, others. "All is not gold that glitters. Therefore, as soon as you hear a deal of noise about some organization "putting over" something big—as soon as you hear of a man "putting over a programme", reflect and study the situation; long beneath the surface and ask this question: Was there a consistent, timely plooding—a struggle back of it all? Great achievements do not spring up overnight. He who would reach the mountain top must clime betimes, toil, must sometimes tire and even face death! It is so with organizations as it is with men. Heaven and hell are not far away, be careful that the two are not confused. Can any one explain the difference between religious syncognition and secular jazz? We could about or "pick cherries" to either. (Continued on Page Eight) SPRT PAGE CALIFORNIA EAGLE TENNIS BASKETBALL FOOTBALL TRACK BOXING GOLF COUNTRY CLUB ACTIVITIES ALL STARS WIN FIRST AND LOSE SECOND GAME OF DOUBLE HEADER AT GOODYEAR After running their string when they defeated the L.A. of last Sunday's doubleheader, second encounter and bowing, dropped the second game. The first game which by agreement was to go seven innings turned out to be a massacre, the home All Stars driving the ball to all corners of the lot and winning as they pleased behind Mution who had the L.A. All Stars calling out of his good right hand. The All Stars scored twelve runs in six innings, so it is just as well that the contest was a shortened one. Second Game Heartbreaker The second game turned out to be a heartbreaker for the home club. The visitors, the Kant Skore, Platoug, had already defeated the All Stars earlier inthe season and our boys were extremely anxious to reverse the defeat. Jay Johnson and Burke were the rival moundsmen and they pitched as the entire game depended upon their work alone. For seven long innings neither club was able to get a runner home but the eighth proved to be the fatal inning for the home crew and the lucky one for the visitors. Hines and Savage generally the most dependable fielders on the All Stars rosters contributed missteps that with a hit sandwiched in between gave the Kant Skore's three runs. The two additional runs that the Kant Skores scored on Hudspeth and Slowtime in the ninth were not needed. Slowtime uncovered some queer baseball strategy when he put Hudspeth in the lineup and pinched his himself in the last two innings, but at that he was trying to win. The fans would have liked to have seen Johnson go all the way. The score by innings: First Inning L. A. All Stars—C. Wilburn singled off Killy's shins and stole second. L.

Sixth Inning cipitation in athletics as the result of the occurrence. University authorities were convinced at the time that the girl had given Francis information to enable him to pass in the study. Actually, the girl persuaded Francis to sid her, according to Coach Smith. The coed kept silent and Francis allowed his tutors to think what they pleased. It is expected that as a result of the purged confession by the girl, Francis will be reinstated. MY EXPERIENCE AS A MANAGER MY EXPERIENCE AS A MANAGER I'll Call This Article "West vs East" How often have you heard Fans say "Say if he is so good, why don't he go East"? I wish to say that I was born and raised in the East and have played all over these United States. There are just as good players here as there are back East. It is a fact that all of your stars come from the west and south. There are lots of reasons for this and the main one is that the boys in the west and south have baseball twelve months a year, while the Easterners have but are good months. The boys from the west and south are always in condition. You would be surprising if you knew the good ball players who won't leave their home towns. A good one and the best one is that managera don't want to pay sufficient salaries to beginners from the bushes. There are exceptions of course, ball players who would go anywhere to play ball games may that he is a member of such and such a club. Many Chances For Youth If some of the promising young players would take a few minutes for some really deep thinking, they would realize that the chances they have been waiting for are here. All of the veterans are showing signs of wear and tear and some one has got to take their places. We have been many boys come from the east out here who have caused the remark to come from fans. "Say how did he hold down a job back there?" Professional baseball more than any other business or pursuit that I know of is based on the law of the surval of the fittest. "Fortunately, great physical strength seems to go hand in hand with a peace loving disposition. It is an interesting question to determine just how important physical strength is in a ball player. Most athletes are wiry and tough if they are not uncommonly strong. Theoretically strength is needed only in batting and even the part strength plays in slugging is somewhat problematical. Other things being equal, it is fair to assume that the heavier and stronger a batter may be, the harder he can hit the baseball". Perhaps a line of advice would be Perhaps a line of advice would be in line here. To all baseball players stay at home at night. COLLEGE OPENS The idea of organizing a council of this kind has been handled from mouth 1. Mike Pay Jackson to march for some time. Its objective realization depends, of course, upon the individual initiative of the officers of the local chapter. It has also been printed out that almost every officer of the scope has its council and Los Angeles should be forthcoming with one of its own. Will Attend Concerts Broadway Gate alone matter at K. C. MONARCHS AND HILLDALE CLUBS WILL MEET FOR WORLD'S PREMIER BASEBALL HONORS The war between eastern and western baseball interests, which has been going on for the past two years, ended in New York on Monday evening, September 8, when Tenny Blunt, owner of the Detroit Stars, and Rube Foster, president of the National Negro Baseball League met in a six-hour session at the 136th Street Branch Y. M. C. A. with the Commissioners of the Eastern Colore dLeague and worked out a tentative agreement about player contracts and other subjects in dispute. At this meeting arrangements were made for a colored world series between the pennant winners of the Eastern and Western Leagues. This series is certain to be played between the Hilldale Club and the Kansas City Monarchs. It will open in Philadelphia on October 3 and 4. The third game will be played in Baltimore, October 5, and the teams will then jump to Kansas City where they play October 10, 11, and 12. The final games will be played in Chicago, if necessary.

A tentative agreement to be ratified at a joint meeting of the two leagues in Chicago the first week in December, was also reached by which players now on the payroll of one club must be considered under contract to that club and are not to be interfered with by any other member clubs. Each club is to send immediately to the secretary of his league the names of all players under contract with the team. It was agreed that ball players owing money to one club and now playing with another must honor these debts or the club they are now playing with will have to assume responsibility for them. This includes money advanced to players since the formation of the Eastern League. Last week the Commissioners of the Eastern League announced that they were in a receptive mood for settlement of all differences between the two leagues, and Foster and Blunt took advantage of this occasion and rushed to New York. They were guests of James J. Keenan at the Lincoln Giants' Park on Sunday, and it was Mr. Keenan, with Nat Strong, who hurriedly called the meeting for: Monday night. Every member team of the East was represented except the Harrisburg Giants, and Col. Strothers did not get his notice in time to make the trip. Chairman Ed. Bolden, with his secretary, Lloyd Thompson, came over from Philadelphia and presided. James J. Keenan was secretary of the meeting, and the others present were: Charles P. Sweden and George Rossiter of the Baltimore Sox; Thomas Jackson of the Bacharach Giants; George Robinso not the Washington Potomac; Alexander Pompez of the Cuban Stars, Nat. Strong of the Royal Giants; and Messrs. Foster and Blunt of the Western League. The following newspaper men also sat in on the conference: Archie Morgan of the Chicago Defender; William P.

American and National League teams will be played until the ban is dropped in November. Following the big leaguers, teams composed of the cream of the class A.A.A. league will be brought to Goodyear Park for Saturday, Sunday and Holiday games. The above announcement puts Los Angeles in line to be the winter baseball capital of America. Without a doubt, Goodyear Park is the best plant that has ever been available for winter baseball. With its spacious grandstand and grass playing field as an added attracti tion, it is predicted that the largest crowds in history will attend the winter games at 64th Street grounds. The managers of Goodyear have also announced that they will put a winning team on the field, regardless of the cost. CHICAGO AUTO RA LIVES AND INJUR William Carson Winner Auto Derby After TRAGEDY MARS CHI MOBILE TRAGEDY MARS CHICAGO'S FIRST AUTO-MOBILE CLASSIC Chicago, Ill., Sept. 15.—(By The associated Negro Press)—The death two men, one a spectator and the other a driver and the injury of six others, were the other side of the picture in a brilliant set of races staged by the Colored Racing Association at Hawthorne race track Sunday afternoon. These races, promoted by William Bottoma, Chicago sportman and owner of the famous Dreamland cabaret, marked the initial step of local Negro citizens in the direction of an automobile classic. Save for the matter of death and injury it was a success in every way. There were more than ten thousand admissions, despite unfavorable weather. Anapolis in a Partner Sucial and Clifford Jackson in a Rover Special. The time was 1 hour, 2 minutes and 17 seconds. Another of the feature tests was a match race between George Back-crack white driver and William Jeffertes, a Fronty-Ford. Back holds the dirt track record at Hawthorne and easily defeated Jeffertes, his ability to take turns eliciting the applause of the spectators and drawing him further and further from his competitor. On the last lap the colored driver crops upon him and reduces the winner's margin to scar's length. Other races of the day war ethe "Consolation" hold for cars which The dead are: Herbert Edward Wiley, driver, who was killed when he made an effort to avoid hitting Fred Shaw, a spectator who run down the track. Shaw was killed instantly. Wiley was thrown out of the car which turnd over several times and fell to the ground, stifling injuries so serious that he died shortly after midnight Monday morning. All the other injured were drivers: Casy Jones, Sky Ranki, Hugh Belley, William Jelieries, (one of the promoters) Bill Mackman and William Bottone. There were five races, a WM title being the Indian. It was won by W.Ham Carson of the Indianapolis company of the Mint Industry, during a Bikh Special Session and held in the jungle to "Bikh" Visitation of India. Football, the best item on the menu of Fall sports, is now going at full blast among the high schools. Every afternoon until sundown one can see the football aspirants toiling on the gridiron. Each coach is hoping to turn out a championship team. As to which coach's hopes will materialize, well, that remains to be seen. However tha team that wins the trophy will have earned it, as competition will be very keen. Lincoln High School, whose prospects are rudest, is conceded to bring home the proverbial bacon. Earl Lewis of the afore mentioned schools is developing into a fine halfback. Earl is out every afternoon, and taking a very active part in the scrimmages. Last Friday Jefferson's varsity defeated the Christian College 7-6. Kenneth Levy was responsible for the winner's seven points, inasmuch as he intercepted a pass and ran some 60 yards to a touchdown. Last year Levy was a member of the lightweight team. He should have no difficulty in making the vorcity. Jefferson, winne. rot last year's cellar championship, is again expected to repeat the good work. Last Tuesday Jefferson's lightweight team trounced eVronn a special 18-3. Charlie Dada, veteran halfback of last year's team, played a good game. Willie Middleton also played well in the backfield. Alvis Parrish and Robley Arnold, substituted for each other at end. Sam Smith, who played on the lightweights last year, is assistant manager of Jeff's football team.

Due White is a Premier won the 10-mile special in which the six fastest cars were qualified. The twenty-mile event went to "Uncle Jones", driver of a Prairie Coach, guided by William Bottema, and entered after the injury of the latter on Thursday. The Consolation prize went to William Wakhall in the American Oyster' entry. Two of the one animal were built by Negroes, the Tuscan Special costumed by J. A.

STEPPIN HIGH GAINS MORE LAURELS DURING SAN DIEGO SHOWING ```markdown ``` PAGE-EIGHT STEPPIN' HIGH GAL DURING SAN D Like Los Angeles, San Diego has put its stamp or approval upon "Stippin' High" the Los Angeles made musical comedy. Like the press and public of Los Angeles the press and public of San Diego have unanimously agreed that "Stippin' High" is a really good show. For the five performances at the San Diego show, which have been available after the first tournai, Mary Richards, Strawberry Russell, Dick Thomas, The Quartette, Arthur Trent, Amy Lofton, Leonidas Simmons and Harry Fiddler are most prominently mentioned in the press notices of the dailies that describe the show as being "a riot of color" "the greatest colored show" "the fastest and snappiest show" , "a show that many white companies could learn much from and show that packed the show" and with an audience that didn't sit on its hands. One critic was especially impressed with the fashion show and the gracefulness of the girls who displayed the beautiful gowns. "STEPPIN' HIGH" TO AMUSE VETS San Diego, Calif., Sept 23—Despite the fact that they are working hard and giving five shows in four days, the Steppin' High company, now showing at the Spreckles Theatre, will get up early this morning and go out to Camp Kearney and entertain the disabled veterans there; it is doubtful if any of them has worked at San Diego has worked all through a show the way the Steppin' High people work, with a full measure of pep and enthusiasm in every number. If they are as pepy today at Kearney, they'll have the vets cured. The management of the show was glad of the chance to entertain the Kearney veterans, and the members were many, whom are exservice men with delightful opportunity to cheer up their disabled b白iddles. The San Diego Electric railway volunteer to furnish the transportation, and will send the players out in one of the big Fageol coaches. So Strawberry Russell and his friend Sam can show how well their worried dogs like to play with the dogs. Hikweh with her restless toes. And if the vets can't get a big laugh out of Harry Fidler's Chinese impersonation, they are beyond help. DARK STARS By Miss Hollywood B. P. Shulberg Productions have signed Floys Shulberg to appear in "Combo" in their latest production, "The White Man". Alice Joyce and Kenneth Harlan will be the stars in this highly dramatic picture of the African Waste. Mr. Shulckelford as "Combo" will have a chance to show the screen fans one of his dramatic power, as he has been seen in comedies mostly of late. "Whits Man" as a picture swill use as high as two or three hundred colored actors in most of the African scenes. Mr. James R. Smith and Mr. Charles Butles of the Dramatic League and Cinema Auxiliary will do the casting of this picture for the Shulberg Production. Louis Gasoier, known to most of the Colored actors of the screen will have charge of the direction. "COMMON SENSE" (Continued from Page Six) Many of the differences of opinion which arise between men are due to the fact that some are too lazy to search for information and in their very intemperate desire to impress other people of their knowledge and ability keep running counter to those much more informed than they. There is a great distinction between talent and genius, but few people seem to realize it. We have no hesitation in saying that we think that the ministry is one of the most laudable professions in the world, but we certainly are unable to understand why so many of our people keep tooling themselves that it is the most rightous and that unless a man knows that he is striving. Professions do not make men, men ```markdown ``` Nationally Famous Boys Band Invades So. Cal. By George H. Reed Sweeping down from the sunny slopes of South Carolina, Mr. J. J. Walker of Jenkhs' Orphanage of Charleston, S. C., gave me one grand surprise with his 18 piece band of boys the ages ranging from nine to eighteen years. While passing along the street the other afternoon I happened to hear some sweet strains of music and on investigating, I heard some of the nicest music any one would care to hear and what struck, me most forcibly was the little nine year old conductor, Captain Leon Bowman. Speaking to Mr. Walker I learned that Capt. Bowman's family very sorry to learn that he does not know either mother or father and has been in the orphanage all his life. He has led the band for four and one half years. I also learned from Mr. Walker that he was working on a very worthy cause throughout the country every summer with the Band to raise funds to make the orphanage self supporting and teaching the inmates all kinds of trades so as to make them useful as well as law abiding citizens. The orphanage has turned out 3600 useful men already. Friday night I went down to the Assembly Auditorium to hear the Band's concert and found it very interesting as the boys can sing as well as play. The quartette was led by Master Herbert Vaughn, basso. 18 years of age; Master Charley Johnson. Tenor. 19 years; Master Herbert Hollandes, Bartone. 18 years; and Master Curry 12 years. And then he othr em members. Vaughn is a 'finished shoe maker'. Speaking of the solo corner player I must say for one that as played only five years he is very happy and gets a very nice tone and did a little triple tongue. I came very near over looking the young man's name which is Herbert Holls and I understand that they have four bands on the road every summer in different parts of the U. S. A. PHILLIPS, CHAPEL C. M.

On the other hand you will find as many honorable and upright men among doctors, lawyers, journalists and teachers as you will find among ministers. It is not the particular class in which the moral or immoral qualities are engrafted. These qualities belong to individual men, whether they be ministers, doctors, lawyers, teachers, boot-blocks, painters, scavengers or anything else. A nationally reputed lawyer is just being denounced all over the country for his defense of two self-confessed murderers, while a minister in the same section where this lawyer resides, is under strong legal suspicion of having murdered his wife and the husband of his sweetheart whom he kept whilst his wife was alive. Jack Moonflitzer the other day advocated the use of a microscope of high magnification power to identify foxes, who he says, are very little in their sympathetic and prejudices. We advocate the use of a telescope with a powerful lens to see him and many others who are so far off in their thinking, as well as in their conception of the attitude of other people, until we are almost unable to locate their position in HIM. IN THE MUSIC WORLD By John A. Gray What is musical atmosphere? How can one create it? Is it necessary to musical development? The above questions are very often asked by persons who wish to develop musically, yet the majority of students generally overlook the need of this element. Musical atmosphere, like other kinds of atmosphere is a condition that surrounds and affects any, given thing. It has its strength in environment, mental conditions, and united thought. No student can attain full development in a community where little music is heard, where there is not much musical activity nor where he is not able to secure booke and periodicals about music and musicians. Even in a community such as we have in Los Angeles, where although there is much activity, the height of development is limited by the quality of music that we hear, often of cheap, tenuous, frivolous music creates the same kind of atmosphere. Such an atmosphere appeals to a frivolous, shallow mind. If the majority of music that is heard is of such a nature, then the majority of people in that community are frivolous and shallow mind. We send our boys and girls away to school, at some center of culture. Why? For better education? Not always, but trather for the atmosphere that encourages higher education. United thought is much stronger than single thought. Many minds concentrating on the same thing is a renaissance form of musical atmosphere is found where many minds are in constant touch with the masterworks of musical literature, where these works are often performed and where a high standard of excellence is maintained. Schools, symphony orchestras, concerts and recitals measure this standard. Students, clubs, music-lovers and musicians form the mass that absorb and assimilate this atmosphere. They in turn should spread it among others by creating in some degree more of a social gathering an attempt should be made to render some good music. The Phonograph and player-piano are excellent aids in this respect. Music students and musicians cannot afford to entertain their friends entirely with the same form of social evening that those who are not musicians use. Musicales, musical teas, sororites, etc. are forms that belong to musicians themselves. If they neglect them who is going to use them? In the home, or do we have such a thing anymore, the opportunity for atmosphere is greatest. Parents should not neglect this side of their children's life. One reason why Europeans are better musicians than Americans is because of the quality of atmosphere with which they surround their students. They grow up in it, and it becomes a part of their lives. The average European business man is conversant with the highest forms of music, painting, literature and sculpture. Very few in America are. Let us start now to now the need of musical talent that in *the* will ripen to a point where our students can absorb it in quantifiable necessary for their full development. POLITICAL POT PIE Sidney P. Dones has announced his candidacy for Assemblyman from the 73rd District as an independent and has the endorsement of the Lafontaine forces to help him on his way.

GENIUS OF MAJOR LOVING--THE STONE OF CLARA PHILLIPS' FAME MY HISTORY From the beginning the earth was my bed; the sun, wind and the rain my only associates. I occupied my spot on the earth undisturbed. To my surprise, one lonesome afternoon, my quietness was disturbed by something. I knew not what. I felt something soft and tender around me for the first time in my existence; then I felt myself going up into the air. I was suddenly turned loose and down I came, but not in my original bed where I had lain calmly, soft and hard, that I had both soft and hard; then I rolled off info a new spot, hearing some harsh words that I will never forget, and bearing a spot on me that will never leave, for it is a stain. It was wet, and it does not seem to dry off like the rain. I had laid in my new place for about twenty-four hours when I heard a noise coming toward me; whatever it was it stood beside me for some moments in meditation, and then I was moved again into a bed. I had been snorkeling for quite a while, and then I was taken from this shaky bed and piled into a dark space. I realized I was not in my bed of nature and felt derried of my old associates. What they intended to do with me, I did not know. Finally, one day after several months' rest in this dark place, I was taken out into some light, bright, noisy place and laid in another bed. I laid in this position for about three weeks, being looked at, talked about and moved around, and still! I did not know why I had been disturbed or taken from my bed of nature. When they got through turning me around and talking about me I was sad. I had been so bad that I did not like because the noise around me was unusual. Finally, one day a friend of mine came by. I looked me over and asked, "What kind of friend is this friend that cares for me now, I have learned is named Major Loving." IS A FOOD—WHY NOT GET THE BEST? NYS 4-BROWN CANDY CO.

I have learned that Chira Phillips is the cause of my being here and that the stain upon me is the blood of Alberts Meadows. I suppose I am in jail to remain forever for a crime I did not commit, and the one who caused me to be here is in Saa Quantin Prison serving a life sentence with three meals a day and a nice sofe bed to sleep on and I am here without any meals at all and deprived of God's fresh air. To those who read this history, I have this to say: there have been many souls incarcerated for something they did not do, but were unable to convince those in authority of their innocence. They, like myself, are shut away for the term of their sentence. Justice, Justice, where are thou? It is a pity that Justice cannot see into the human heart, for the only evidence Justice has to rely on to guide her is the testimony of the witnesses and Justice is oftentimes misled and some poor, unfortunate has to pay the penalty and wait patiently for Justice to turn his way. Oh! God of Heaven! Look down into the hearts of men, and teach them to be just and merciful to the unfortunate. Then sentiment of this silent rock is: "Judge ye not harshly, and the world will be a better place for the human race." How well do we know, and it comes to everyone sooner or later there is no person in the world without some friend. It makes no difference how bad or how poor, he or she may be (for no one is perfect) or what mistakes they have made in life; there is in all cases someone with an outstretched hand and an open heart for the relief of such a person, and in this case the innocent suffer more than the guilty.

Fifteen thousand race crazed spectators witnessed the National Flirty Mile Auto Derby held Sunday. Aside from two lives being smuffed out and six being seriously injured, why every thing went off O.K. Five events were run off previous to the fifty mile event. The first race was a ten mile consolation for all care failing to qualify in the morning trials. This event was The third event was the Dreamland in the lead at the start and was never headed. The second was a five mile match race between Mgr. Jefferies of Chicago Colored Auto-Racing Association and Geo. Beck. Beck won in a close finish by a car's length. The third event was the relandam Derby for the six fastest cars qualifying in the tryouts. Dr. White in a Princess was first and Casey Jones in a Frontenac wa econd. The fourth event was the one that caused so much excitement and two persons their lives. Fud Shaw, an excited spectator was killed outright and Norbert Wiley was fatally injured. The race was won by Casey Jones in a Frontenac. This race was followed by the main event, the National Derby. These were 20 entries and the excitement was intense. William Carson in a special wom. William Valentine was second, Clafford Jackson was third. Prizes both cash and trophies to the amount of approximately 35,000 were distributed among the winners. The events to say the least were exciting and full of thrills. This is the second big auto race of the year. The first was held at Indianapolis and covered a hundred miles. From the crowd on hand at both events it looks as it the colored drivers were about to give the public a run for its money and if the races are supported, even in the smaller measure it will be a big event in its sport history of the Negro. TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS By: OFFICER' URSIN Every city, regardless of its size or geographical location has traffic problem. Many laws have been enacted to iron out traffic kinks and reduce to a minimum the number of accidents which daily cause anywhere from one to a dozen lives. Up to a few years ago pleasure cars constituted ninety eight per cent of the automobiles, but with the perfection of the gas, engine the auto truck came into being and where yesterday it was a curiosity today thousands of auto trucks are now to be seen in daily use transporting tons of freight from the wholesaler and manufacturer to retailers. Then, too, the retailer uses the same method to reach the consumer. All this has added to congestion of street and highways in that these heavy trucks are forced to travel slower with their heavy loads, and now we have the busses and bus lines, which have made traffic conditions anything but pleasant. Here in Los Angeles our streets are unusually narrow and this too be comes a serious factor in solving the problem. However, the automobile is here to stay and if the streets and highways are to be made safe the enactment of proper legislation and its enforcement will do much to reduce undertaker and doctor expenses. But the law, its enforcement and a reduction in acc dents and death involves upon each individual autoist and pedestrian alike to use a little common sense and sound judgment in assisting the traffic officer in his efforts to protect their life and limb, and those of the hundreds of school children by stricly complying with all traffic regulations. DID YOU KNOW THAT Of the 1,066,000 motor vehicles licensed in Great Britain, no fewer than $31,000 are motorcycles? in the United States the number of motorcycles is 127,000 out of a total number of 152,219,193 vehicles licensed. In making a leak-proof joint it is not only wise to use a suitable gasket, but also to place felt washers underneath the iron washers of the retaining bofts? Mrs. A. E. Adams is at home from a motor trip to Frisco where she visited the Annual Conference at Oakland. More than $167,250,937 was derived taxes from the registration of these vehicles, of which $134,733,225 was expended by the various states in road projects? SCHOOL STOPS Considerable complaint was registered last school season over the fact that every auto was made to stop at school crossings. This year one may continue on his way unless there is a child about to cross in which instance the auto must stop. This new law has had the effect of speeding up traffic and every one is wearing a smile. Limit Speed and Weight Following an engineering investigation, as required by the Motor Vehicle Act, the California highway commission has adopted a resolution fixing the speed limit on the Rincon Causeways in Ventura county at 15 miles per hour and the weight of loads which may be moved over them at ten tons. This has been done as a safety measure, it is announced, by State Highway Engineer R. M. Moton. The wooden causeways are about to be replaced by a concrete seawall and full and extensive repairs at this time may be a waste of funds. Signs will be placed by the commission giving the new speed and weight limits, after which it will be unlawful to violate the new regulations. You wouldn't leave your wallet containing $500 or a $1000 parked at the curb, while you went inside to transact business. In fact, the average person would be likely to consider such carelessness bordering on total insanity. Nine motorists out of every ten, according to statistics, are fully as careless with their cars which often cost considerably more than $500 or a $1000. "Many motor car owners think nothing of driving their car to the curb and leaving it for long periods without locking it in any way," said J. M. Sterling, manager of the Paige Company of Southern California, Paige and Jewett distributors here. "As a consequence there is little wonder that automobile thieves find Southern California such a profitable field for their work. THAT is the finest tribute that could possibly be paid to the economic value of the automobile. For the measure of any civilization is the happiness of the average household. "There is no wealth but life." Whatever makes it possible for millions of families to enjoy life more, contributes beyond measure to the nation's real wealth. The whole family enjoys life much better in a RECONDITIONED CAR from us; even our prices add to your pleasure: 1919 WILLYS-KNIGHT TAXI..... $ 350.00 1922 CHANDLER COUPE..... $ 950.00 1920 OLDSMOBILE TOURING..... $ 450.00 1917 OAKLAND TOURING..... $ 85.00 1920 CHANDLER TOURING..... $ 585.00 1921 STUDABAKER TOURING..... $ 600.00 1921 DODGE TOURING..... $ 425.00 1923 FORD TOURING..... $ 300.00 1924 STEPHENS SPORT..... $1350.00 1916 DODGE TOURING..... $ 150.00 "As an example of the manner in which these culprits often work, two Jewett cars were taken out by Guy Collins and George L. Reaper, Puffie Company salesmen, to show just how easily a car might disappear. Quite commonly auto thieves work in pairs, and when they see an unlocked car at the curb, they drive another machine alongside the one parked. It is an easy matter to step from one car to the other. In case of detection in the actual act of theft the other car offers a means of escape. "Often before attempting a theft the car which the thieves intend to take will be shadowed for several days. How long the car is left parked is carefully noted. When the right time comes they act swiftly. For this reason Southern California stresses the importance of keeping cars well locked. It is the exceptional case when a particular car is spotted. As a rule they take the one that offers the best chance for an easy get-a-way." Solid Rubber Tires Hardest On Highways It is common knowledge, especially among highway engineers, that impact "THE WHOLE F rather than static load results in road destruction. In other words, although a road might concovably carry a stationary load of 100 tons, the danger to the road is accounted in proportion to the speed with which it is carried and the amount of protection between the road and the load. It is generally appreciated that a load may be carried at ten miles an hour on a solid-tired truck without danger to the ordinary improved highway. The same load on the same tires at twenty miles an hour would increase the impact strains on the road at least four times. The speed has only been doubled while the destructive pounding force has been quadrupled. One of the government bureaus has gone very carefully into the matter of impact, according to the Miller Rubber Company of California, and finds that even with the best types of solid cushion fites the impact is tremendous compared with the impact of a pneumatic tire. In one case the road and the load are protected by a large cushion of air and in the other case by a comparatively small area of hard rubber.
