C., Dec. 10.—(By The Associated Negro Press)—The eyes o America are turned to Washington. The grind of a closing administration will soon give way to the blossoming of a new one. The change will be spectacular. President Coolidge has yielded to public sentiment—meaning the business interests of Washington—and, with the coronial suggestion of Senator W. M. Butler, Republican National chairman, there will be mammoth doings in the capital next March fourth. So far as "we and us" are concerned the inaugural hordes, coming from all compass points, will make the Howard-Lincoln football crowds, which almost overflowed into the Potomac, look like a mere advance guard. Already numerous hotel reservations have been made at the chief hotel, with the hope that the service, which has gone "backward", oh, "backward" because of financial difficulties and retarded management will rise to the occasion. Officials of the hotel have made this promise. Citizens of Washington, who are endeavoring to beast themselves into a frenzy of public spirit, are giving assurance that Washington will "measure up to requirement" —whatever hiat may mean to an humble but earnest public. In the meantime, politics is ticking, ticking, in the meantime, the old timers, cynics, skeptics, renegades and band-wagons. all have their ears glued to the listening post and their eyes stretched out of their pockets, in a merry effort to wipe up on the trend of events or find something to kick about. As fate would have it, they are finding little to kick about, and much to commend. It seems to be written in the stars that the Honorable Calvin Coolidge, of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts—state of illustrious history, Crispine Attucks, and Robert Gould Shaw—is determined to be a sure enough President t of all the people. Every development points just that way. Unfriendly sleuths, thus far, are finding it impossible to discover any low down or petty politics; while on the other hand, more instances than are being recorded in the public prints, are be unearthed where the silent exeive from Northampton, has been brave and on the level. Segregation and discrimination, as a policy of Federal Government affairs, seems due to die the ignominious death it should have had when a birthing. Colored America must recognize this new advent of a larger justice, in order to properly measure the distance i the march of progress. The Associated Negro Press correspondent can state on the highest authority that there is a comprehensive and well planned purpose on the part of the Coolidge administration to give this racial group better than an even break. This word has started from the unquestioned "top" and is trickling down to the ears of the humblest official. It is in earnest, it is thoughtful, it is cautious. The feelings of some very sensitive folks, from the sunny section of America may be hurt for the time; there will be some who will lose their official heads, and there may be some ugly remarks from the never-die lips, but the "die is cast" and "Sun Kissed America" is in for an open season for new opportunities. In a group of later stories, it will be interesting to give a number of specific incidents, and to call some very interesting names. In the meantime, "Peace on earth and good will toward man" may his tribe increase. [Image of a person with a dark background] As a Solist and Director, She Stands Head and Shoulder Above the Average. Her Interpretation is good, Her Range Excellent, Her Sweetness Impressive and Her Personality Pleasing. SAN BERNARDINO The women of St. Paul A. M. E. Church, San Bernardino, observed last Sunday as Woman's Day. Much interest was shown in this their first effort. During the three services they were assisted by loyal women from the Baptist Church, San Bernardino, the A. M. E. Church of Riverside and Redlands, who contributed several numbers which helped to make the day a grand success. Miss Veola Carmen Brown, Evangelist, was with us throughout the day and preached special sermons morning and evening that will be long remembered in the hearts and minds of her hearers. Her remarks were deep and full of logic. The receipts for th eday were $51.22. Mrs. A. L. Washington assisted in swelling the offering by a generous donation from friends. One of the features of the day was the usherettes who spared no pains making the congregation comfortable. The woman's choir rendered beautiful selections. Great credit is due the committee for arranging and advertising the meeting. Truly it was a great day and so encouraged are the women over their success that they have heartily agreed to make Woman's Day at St. Paul's A. M. E. Church an Annual Affairs. We wish to thank visiting congregations for their presence and support. COLORED JURY HANDLES DEATH CASE Atlantic City, N. J. Dec. 10—(By The Associated Negro Press).—A coroner's jury compelled entirely of colored persons. Investigating the death of the wife of Edward Lee Stewart, killed when his automobile crashed into a so-called "spite fence," on Mae avenue, rendered a turtle, announcing Stewart from responsibility and placing the blame upon the owners of the fence. Next Sunday will be program day at the Forum. There will be on that day some of the best speakers on the coast. It also behooves all true citizens to come out and make themselves known to the strangers, who visit the Forum Sunday after Sunday. Last Sunday was a pleasant day, owing to the fact that it was open Forum. The Hon. J. W. Coleman was the the limelight of the evening, and, was one of the principal speakers on Jarrett Memorial Day. ECHO OF SUNDAYS MEETING The uniqueness of the S. C. A. A. meeting Sunday consisted in the fact that there was a prominence of two important features: the first was the condition of a very interesting program on the liberal curriculum of their school by a group of Lincoln High School Students; their services having been secured for this occasion by Miss Mary Broyles, who enjoys the honor of being chairman of the Program Committee of the Association. The second was the presentation of a beautiful gold rimmed fountain pen to Mr. James A. Warren by the President, Mrs. Walter L. Gordon on behalf of his organization, as a token of appreciation for the constant and efficient service he has rendered the Association, by having served in the capacity of treasurer since its incipiency tenure years ago. The attention of the meeting was then turned to the business of the hour which was quite successfully transacted. Bish. J. Albert Johnson Wants Educated Ministry Tels Annual A. M. M.E. Church Conference Ignorant and Unconsecrated Minister Can Do But Little Good In Church Asheville, N. C. Dec. 8.—At the recent thirty-second session of the A. M. E. Conference held at St. James A. M. E. Church in this city, Bishop A. Albert Johnson spoke emphatically against uneducated and otherwise unprepared men entering the ministry. In this day Bishop Johnson said it is presumptuous for a man who is unlettered and whose heart is not right to aspire to be a minister of the church, merely because of the social prominence, or the financial gain which might come to him. Such a man can not be of much service to society in general and I believe very little to the Kingdom of God. A man whom God has called ought to think enough of himself to prepare himself to adequately advocate and defend it. We need more training an dmare devotion in the ministry. Bishop Godson, like other Bishops of the church, is thoroughly committed to an educated and consecrated ministry, and more than once during the five days of the session so expressed himself. Three Race Inventions Messrs. David Baker, R. Loquet, and Joseph Morrison, of Los Angeles have invented a very useful device for automobile tires, where the device will be put in use, there will be no more trouble and fear of punctures and blow outs. Mr. Baker is the inventor of two flood signals for railroad bridges, in case of washouts from storm and rain. The device at a mile distance will warn an approaching train of danger. He invented a device to prevent over loading passenger elevators, a portable hammock frame, combined with hammock and a tent, for pleasure at beaches. He made a model of a device for grade crossings that would prevent accidents, and gave same to the auto club of Califf, for the sake of humanity. He presented to the navy department of ship building and repair plant for their consideration, believing same to be useful to submarines, should they become disabled, and prevent them from sinking. The plans were accepted with thanks. ELKS' XMASTREE Elka Will Remember The Kidies With Mammoth Xmas Tree At The Assembly Auditorium Golden West Lodge No. 86 I. B. P. O.

Wealthy Woman Gives Time To A.M.E. School Mrs. Minnie Pearson Waters Motors 50 Miles To Teach Free Of Charge Durham, N. C., Dec., S.—Durham boasts of having many noted characters in the race. One of her most noted women is Mrs. Minnie S. Pearson, the wife of Rev. W. S. Pearson, public high school principal here for many years, head of the Royal Knights of King David, President of the bankers' Fire Insurance Company, and conned with other successful enterpriser Mrs. Pearson gives her time without cost as a teacher in Kittrell College, and motors twice a week from Durham to Kittrell to attend to her educational duties. She is president of the Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary Society of the Western North Carolina Conference, and one of the most prominent women in the A. M. E. Church circles. In spite of her very high training and great wealth (for her husband is one of the wealthiest colored men in America) she is devoted to the church and is looked upon as an exemplary woman. Century Old Church Out Of Debt Union A. M. E. Church Burns Last Mortgage Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. S.—Union A. M. E. Church, the second oldest A. M. E. Church in the city, is celebrating its 105th anniversary this week. The feature of the celebration is the burning of the mortgage on the church. The week's program includes visitation by most of the former pastors who are now active, among whom are Bishop J. Albert Johnson, who was elected Bishop while pastor of this church; Revs. H. H. Cooper, J. L. H. Watkins, J. L. Witten, Benj W. Arnett, Jr., and others. The present pastor, Rev. Jabez Campbell Beck ett. D. is the third in his family descent to be the pastor of this historic church. His grandfather, the late Bishop Jabez P. Campbell was pastor over seventy years ago; his father, Rev. John W. Beckett, was pastor a generation ago. Union's property could not be duplicated today for $75,000. It includes a beautiful modern edifice and a parsonage worth $10,000. There are over 700 members and the church is well organized. Being free of debt, the pastor paints extensive work for religious and social improvement. Among others who take part in the week's program are Bishop W. H. Heard, Drs. R. R. Wright, editor of the Christian Recorder, L. H. Ringgold, presiding elder. Hear Mme.

Tyree would be glad to COMMENTS By W. J. Wheaton "The Fire In The Flint" Walter F. White has struck the fire from the flint and in his novel "The Fire In The Flint" has stirred up a "Heluvastew" among the inhabitants below the imaginary line. Not since Rene Maran wakuped France with his sketch of life in the French-African Colonial possessions, has any work, defining local conditions, probed the conscience or bored so deeply under the skin of the South as this book of Mr. White's. It has set them to thinking. A part of them declare that the condition depicted is entirely true. Others say thatthe book is a mesh of lion unworthy of comment. And yet there must be a goodly portion of truth as portrayed, or there would not be such a chorus of denunciation. "Oh, that the gods some gift would give us. The south has been so self concentrated that even those who would decry atrocities and the temporal conditions which have existed, paid no heed to the many protests until they have been brought, up sharp against the facts, by a man whose mind has been trained to observe and whose brain has been educated to function. "The Fire In The Flint" is only the forerunner of what we may expect from the pens of our authors. Rapidly, writers of training are being developed, and soon we will be able to meet any adverse propaganda with weapons in kind. Education: Concentration: Observation; will spell Damnation to the barriers of progress. Some of our "Slop Shop" politicians are frightly because some of our foes had the temerity to say they would support, and the support, in the most presidential election. It some of those "Dictators" of other folks minds and their way the men and women who have their allegiance to other candidates than President Coolidge would be ostracised socially, pilloried politically, and damned eternally. It was all right for the Republican Party in Congress to bar those who departed the party from the party canvass. That was proper procedure. The fight is not over. But to ensure a man for following the bent of his mind, the his opinion may differ from ours, is to say the least, bad either. We had our reason for supporting the Vinv Coolidge, others had their reason just as good as mine, for supporting some one else. Some of Dr. Carver's critics are exploring the unscientific manner in which he presented his discoveries in a New York audience. The Doctor stated that he used discoveries to "Divine Regulation Which, according to science, is decidedly unethical. One critic hopes that he will not be placed in the "John Japer, Sun Do Move" class. While it is meet and proper to give credit to Divine power for what we may accomplish, it must be remembered that this is an age of gross materialism and we must give a specific reason for the knowledge which we seek to dispense. A professor of research may say that he has a cure for some malignant disease, but he must prove his theory correct before a doubting world takes him into its confidence. So with every thing. It is to be hoped, for the good of all concerned that the Doctor, while giving full credit to the Divine, will not ignore the asset which accrues from regulated scientific research. We can not refrain from again calling the attention of our Race agriculturist to the opportunities to be had, right now, if they avail themselves of this chance to occupy and purchase some of the idle acres of California land. It is a distressing spectacle to see the many men and women who are coming to the cities flocking the employment agencies for domestic positions. Our preachers are bouncing of their increase in membership and laying their plans to rebuild or build additional places of employment. We will bring their condemnation on our heads, but we are going to ask the question, 'Why can you not, say for the space of one year, use your spiritual influence, and moral leadership to help solve this problem?' You know that it confounds the flood in our cities; you know that it is piling parishes of the young people who, from rural communities, fall (Continued on Page Three) m Dances Despite the many inquiries as to what has been done, or what are we going to do about that sign on West Colorado regarding the patronage of our group. This one thing we know, that the sign is still there. In Pasadena two organizations purposing to support our economical situation seem to be at sea as to what steps to take to relieve the embarrassing situation. The consensus of opinion among our people concerning Mr. Kelly, chief of police, is that he is particularly friendly to us, but under these extinguating circumstances which call for a show down its the same old 'gag.' "I'll look into the matter". The consequences are he is still looking and the sign is still hanging. The political influences brought to bear by our political leaders fall away short of any prestige when something concrete is to be done. The cause for such lethargy is due to the oneness, rather than concerted action to bring about results that would be for reaching. The Negroes of Pasadena need not expect many favors until they forget all sectarian, fraternal and all other lines and strike right at the heart of these sinister barriers in one solid phalanx. The Emancipation day program observed on the evening of the first day of the year will be rendered at Friendship Baptist Church, under the auspices of the Ministerial Alliance, an appropriate program is being arranged for the occasion. The public is asked to attend. Rev. J. M. Brown of the First A. M. E. Church is making preparation for a series of meetings of a revival nature at his church. At the rally service Sunday afternoon at the First A. M. E. Church, Rev. Priolean of Los Angees spoke in the afternoon to a large and appreciative audience. The members of this church are making speedy preparation for a complete remodeling of their structure. The members of the Kansas Club are holding an all night watch meeting night and all day New Year's Day dinner at the A. M. E. claiming to be the largest in the history of the church. Rev. W. M. Prince is doing a wonderful work in Monrovia among those people. Has succeeded masterfully in founding a church at this place, acclaimed the attention of the most careless to become interested in church work. Rev. Burton who for some time had a charge in Pomona is working ardouously in Duarte to finish the work instituted by Rev. Prince and we predict a bright future for both of these men. Mr. and Mrs. O. O. Overr are comfortably domiciled in their newly acquired home on Pepper St., with a large lot bespeckled with many a fruit tree and numerous plants and bulbs of every description coupled with Mr. Overr's ability as a landscape gardener. this place is destined to be one of the show places of N. W. Pasadena. Mrs. Anna Harmon Passes Mrs. Anna Harmon died early Sat urday morning past following a very short illness, at the home of Mr. & Mrs. Jones on W. Hammond Street, having contracted a cold that developed into pneumonia. She was a member of Friendship Baptist Church, loved and revered by a host of friends. The funeral was preached by Rev. W. H. M. Dickerson, interment at Mt. View Cemetery. Conner & Johnson of Los Angeles were in charge of body. A Dark Xmas A very cold and most cholerless Christmas stares five boys and one girl in the face as the result of the passing beyond the great divide of their mother. No doubt their minds had been made up what Santa would bring them—but the unexpected always happens. Such a case as this needs our sympathy and support and should not be overlooked by those who are more fortunate. These children live on Hammond street with their father. White Christmas A white Christmas will be presented by Class No. 1, of Friendship Baptist Church. All plans have been perfected for this occasion to be carried out next Sunday night at the church, and no pains have been spared to make it a success. The idea as carried out is to bring any article of food or clothing and lay at the foot of the Cross at the appropriate time, same to be wrapped in white. These gifts, if you intend them to be delivered to any particular party, should have their name on the package. It has also been suggested that each department come in a body as they are called by the director and lay their gifts at the Cross. A hearty response is expected as the whole donation is to be given to those less fortunate than we. Get the Christmas spirit, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." Constant rehearsals are being held by Capt. Reynolds getting the young folks in line for a cantata to be given Christmas. Thus far he has had wonderful success and very much appreciation the support given him by the young folk. Finally, arrangements have been made for the ground breaking of Friendship Baptist Church to be held on the Sunday in January. Programs have been printed, also invitations which will seem to be sent out to the little friends and well wishers of the Quite a streak of continually predicated propaganda is being fermented by a certain bunch of "trackers" in this senior high, which showed itself when upon a certain occasion these imbeciles appeared before a supposed intelligent audience and sang a certain song which not only displayed their ignorance, and lent a color of influence that is far reaching in to minds of their posterity, but caused a burst of applause by the hearers. The matter was taken up with the superintendent of schools, but for the results we are unable to report. The class of people that put on this sort of entertainment is the low-brow and we don't expect much better, but the heads of the school should stand for a fair and impartial chance regardless of race, color or creed. Its the same old story, to attack these things we do it single handed because we have no representative body to force the issue wholeheartedly.

Griffith, Pastor The pastor delivered the sermons at both services last Sunday. The evening subject was the day's Sunday school lesson topic. In the morning the text was Prov. 17:17. subject, "The Constancy of Friendship". In this message he said "Every person who rises to power, honor, or emolument had some friend to help him. McKinley had Mark Hanna. Booker T. Washington had a friend unknown to fame who believed in him, and persuaded others to believe in him in those days when Mr. Washington was arising to national and international fame. And as we look back our lives appear as one long lane, with various friends arising here and there to help us to pass by the crises in our experiences. In struggles, in sickness, in disappointments, in sorrows, the friends would invariably be found, into the construction of super fires today have reached such a stage of development and perfection that vibration has well been eliminated What's The Result? And as a result we live in a new age. Motor transportation in every form from the hauling freight and passengers in competition with the great steam and electric lines, down use in the home as family convenience owes its present status largely to the King Tire. ZION HILL BAPTIST CHURCH 1319 E. 22nd Street Rev. J. H. Holder, Pastor If you were not at Zion Hill Sunday, you missed the treat of your life. The day was begun with good attendance at the early 5 o'clock prayer meeting. Much interest was manifested in the Sunday school and senior class No. 1 created quite an enthusiasm by raising $17.00 in their class collection, and advance class No. 11 raising $5.00 other classes responded freely. This class promises to be one of the banner Sunday School's in attendance and raising finance. As the way women's day the pastor selected his morning text from Gen. 2:23-24. Subject: "Women in the Bible." At the afternoon services Mrs P. B. Wigzlas, chairman of the Ushua Board, had a most excellent programme rendered.

After which Mrs C. A. Bass the princess of excellent talk which was a sermon in itself. She based the subject from Prov. 14:4. Every wise woman builds her house, but the foolish pluck it down.

The review given by Rev. Rozier is always helpful. One of the fathers of the ministry, Rev. J. M. Young, pastor of Friendship Baptist Church of Pasadena, preached for us in the morning Rev. Young began his discourse by commending the unusual spiritual welcome which was always felt at Pleasant Hill and which he had experienced at no other church. His text: "Ye did obey the truth" was a wonderful message as Bro. Young closed pleading with us to stay within the line prescribed by God, and not compromise with the devil. At 3:00 P. M. Rev. Rozier brought a burning message to Trinity Baptist Church, of which Rev. Eldridge is pastor. Sunday night, Rev.

Those enlisted in the army were pictured as stockholders in this great company, each person present that held possessions there, why their souls were set on Halloween fire and there was a fire in their house. Their points of resemblance, their difference, personal character, and wise and foolish builders, was made so plain at the evening service that a man the fool could not err. One enlisted in this field for service. Many visitors were in attendance. You're always welcome at St. Paul, Come and enjoy a real Gospel feast.

At 9 o'clock the teachers and officers were in their places full of enthusiasm. The Sunday school continues to grow financially as well as numerically. At 11 o'clock pastor Miller delivered one of his master sermons on the subject "Sowing and Reaping." He very earnestly pictured the truth that "Whatsoever a man soweth that he also reap." He so beautifully differentiated between the coward and so brave man. The main auditorium was filled to its highest capacity, and it was found necessary to use the balconies to accommodate the enormous crowd. Group No. 2 of the Ladies. United Board was on duty and handled the vast crowd creditably. The A. C. B. League was largely attended. Mrs. W. D. Miller, our pastor's wife will be the leader for next Sunday.

Both endeavors were well attended and the enthusiasm that attended them was noticeable. At night there was an attentive audience and the pastor spoke from the text, "What is a man profiled, if he gains the whole world and lose his own soul, or what would a man give in exchange for his soul?" The attendance at all the services was good, the attention commendable and the offering above the average. APOSTOLIC FAITH ASSEMBLY 112 East 33rd Street Ed. F. I.

The pastor took his shall be written for the generation text from its. 40 and Ps. 102. This to come; and the people which shall be created shall praise the Lord. Sunday being the second Sunday for Missionary, we were favored with a short message from Sister Allen and the young folks also favored us with a nice program.

Those who enjoy real Methodist fire will not be disappointed when they come to Zion to get it. Rev. Hendricks preaches with the old time fire. The evening text was found in Paul's letter to the Galatians, 4th chapter, first six verses. The adoption of the Bible splendid program was held at the Bible class and Endeavor meetings.

It's a "kind of forgiving, pleasant time" as Charles Dickens calls it. For this we love the Christmas season. But it is more, far more than that when we think of its deep meaning—when we worship anew the child of Bethlehem, our greatest gift. "O come let us ador eHim! One year in San Francisco on Christmas eve, ten thousand people gathered in the streets to hear the great singer Luisa Tetrazzine. She genociously gave her beautiful voice and her time as her gift to the public on that Holy night. After the last echoes of her glorious voice had subsided the multitude took up the strain of that familiar hymn. As one voice they sang. "O come let us adore Him Christ the Lord." How shall we adore Him? What shall we give Him who gave much to us, when he came in great humility, a little child in the manger! What do you think He would like best? He said Himself, "In as much as ye have done it unto the least of these, ye have done it unto me". There are many of "the least of these in this great city of Los Angeles. Many shadowed homes, many sad parents who cannot gladden the hearts of their little ones on this the Children's day, many little children who would have no Christmas at all if it were not for kind hearts and generous hands. There will be an effort made to arrange a Community Christmas for these. Last year we had a Christmas Tree. It gave happiness to many. It was made possible because many friends not only gave money but gave time and thought and effort Their labor represented a wonderful and generous gift that could hardly be measured. It meant even more than money. This year the same friends are making a somewhat different plan. The evening before Christmas they will visit these sad and darkened homes where there is no Santa Claus. no stockings, no Christmas Tree, not even a Christmas dinner in prospect. Kind friends and helpers have offered to assist in placing their auto's at our disposal. Would it make you happier when you are celebrating your Christmas morning to feel that perhaps one family, perhaps on elittle child who would have had no Christmas except for you and your gife, will smile, and rejoice, and take fresh heart and hope to go onward? There will be turkeys for those who need them with the "fixins" of course, some toys for the children chosen according to their tastes and ages, perhaps some necessary clothing. Great care will be exercised in seeking out those who most are in need and most deserving. In past years we have had wonderful, really magnificent help. May we ask once more that you open up your heart and your purses. Contributions can be sent to the Y. W. C. A. 1108 East 12th street or the Y. M. C. A. 1400 East Ninth Street, also to either of the weekly papers. I have sometimes regretted that the word "merry" is always used with Christmas greeting. Not that we do not hope that all may be "merry" with hearts filled with thanksgiving. But friends, after a fall, perhaps it is only the very young who can be "merry". Almost every one who has passed beyond youth has known the touch of sorrow. But do not say I will try to forget that its Christmas because I cannot be merry now with a sad heart. "Blessed" Christmas is the better word. "When they saw the star they rejoiced with exceeding great joy." We can realize that kind of joy in our hearts. Suppose instead op forgetting Christmas you remember it by carrying a bessing, to some one that needs it. Perhaps your heart will sing when you see a smile in a child's face and realize that you put it there. Try that kind of being merry.

Two years on the hot bench was quite enough for Eddie Carlisle, who has really handled the thankless seat very creditably but craved a rest. Corresponding Secretary, William Tatum was raised to the first vice president's pedestal covering the first district Southern California, Bakersfield and South. Mrs. Nelle Magnolia Carlisle was coaxed to accept the second vice and will govern the second district California north of Bakersfield. Miss Verna Stratton was elected 3rd vice and governs Oregon, Washington, and the Hawaiian Islands. James Harris fourth vice, Idaho, Nevada, and Utah. Miss Jaulette Harris, Pacific Coast Champion of ladies' singles, doubles and mixed doubles, is our fifth vice president and will take charge through correspondence ofennis in Virginia. Charles Andrew Black was persuaded to stick with the ship after four well years as recording secretary. John Flery of the Racquet Wielders' Club and of Jefferson High was satisfied with the job of corresponding secretary. Our honorable treasurer, Charles Monroe Cameron, had to unload, but was finally bolted down for another twelve. After considerable jockeying around Eddie Carlisle was harnessed down like a regular official referee. Manager of puberty was again tacked upon the shoulders of this winter without a souffle.

SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH (Continued from page 2) And we have also found that friendship breaks by all racial barriers and boundaries. Many white people who are propagandists of race have owed their very life itself to the friendship of Negro people. And many of our own people who advocate race estrangement would have a far different status in life but for the friendliness of white people. The man who has a friend has also a debt. He owes the thankfulness of his heart to the one who helped him. The treasurer is the worst man in all the world. The meanest character in history or literature is Judas. But one does not only owe gratitude to the one who has befriended him, he owes it to the world that he has the spirit of friendship for men and for causes in his life. After all the best friend is Jesus, he is the friend who sticketh closer than a brother. We are looking forward to interesting services next Lord's Day when we shall have our Christmas services. "STRETCHING OPPORTUNITIES NECESSARY IN STRIVING FOR SUCCESS" Grasping opportunities that are worth while requires a skill that most men do not inherit. Many men and women wait for an opportunity to grasp them. Some individuals find opportunity and consider their task inscribed. Often good opportunities are given up because of some minor difficulty that could be easily overcome. There are numerous ways to respond to the call of opportunity. When we think of men making most of their opportunities we readily think of such men as Thomas A. Edison, Booker T. Washington, or Abraham Lincoln. These men have stretched their opportunities in order to bring themselves success and at the same time have made fundamental contributions for the advancement of humanity materially, intellectually and morally. Thomas A. Edison did not content himself with having perfected one electrical invention but worked the harder in order to create new opportunities for other inventions. Neither did Booker T. Washington content himself with having crashed the opportunity of getting an education for himself. He stretched his original opportunity in such a manner that made new opportunities for thousands of boys and girls to get a wholesome industrial education. Those of us who are expecting big things in the future should get busy stretching opportunities. B. M. DURILAM.

Dr. East spoke of the economical reference to the Republic of Liberia, entire Dark Continent, with particular He spoke of the great indebtedness of the great a millifino and a half dollars: how much of that debt was incurred by a white concern that pretended to be interested in the development of Africa, but which concern squandered the money and did not make any explanation about it. It was clearly demonstrate how the Liberians for the last one hundred years have had to fight hordes of savage natives, and how wonderfully they had stood, with practically nothing to hold on. The purpose of this symposium is to raise $25,000, which sum is needed to carry out the program that has already been outlined. Dr. Charles S. Morris, D. D. an eminent divine, one of the most powerfully eloquent of Baptist ministers, moved the audience to its feet at the afternoon session on Monday, when he spoke on "Some Needs in the Redemption of Africa." He appealed to the sacred honor of every Negro in the United States, saying that God had given the American Negro this freedom in order to make is possible for the larger freedom of the world—Africa in particular. Dr. Morris mentioned the needs of a hospital to cor- who leave America and must be nursed until they are acclimated and also to nurse missionaries when they are sent.

On the heels of a multiplicity of killings among our group by the members of the same, comes distressing news of attacks on young girls by reprobate preachers. In the premises and without trials we cannot pass on their guilt or innocence, but from the information gained it looks very serious and dark for the two ministers who are now in the toils of the law charged with statutory crimes against young girls. If they are proven guilty, no punishment prescribed by law is sufficient for the enormity of the offense charged and no man, woman or body of men or women who seek to condone this crime should be allowed to get away with it. We say, "hew to the line, let the chips fall where they may."

There was no question of his sincerity and devotion for the workingman. Our only regret during the time of his mighty reign was the fact that he failed to include all citizens on an equal basis on his program of advancement. Even so brilliant a career of his, this oversight to a great extent kept labor from reaching the pinnacle which it would have gained. It is self-evident that the great Federation of Labor must enlist the Negro worker under its banner on an equal basis if it gains ultimate success. Workers in a population of 15,000,000 people cannot be overlooked nor denied if labor's program is to be attained. However, the wonderful leader of the labor hosts is to be appreciated and all who toil cannot fail to appreciate his wonderful service for the cause and hope that his successor will continue the good work and include in his program a square deal for every man or woman who toils.

A Happy Christmas and A Bright and Glad New Year to All! One of the surest signs of a Christmas thoroughly enjoyed is a Christmas quietly spent. THE angels sang: "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men". Men now sing: "On earth war, ill will toward men!" THE new Year is coming, the city elections will soon speed along. Under the new charter, which is soon to be approved by the coming legislature, the City Council will consist of eleven, instead of nine members, as hitherto. Los Angeles Negroes have an opportunity as never before, to unite every interest at their command and all the forces which they possess and concentrating the same]in ONE NATION, a fleet and return him to the new City Council as their representative. Until we are properly represented in the civic administration of this community we shall continue to be at the mercy and charity of those with whom we should stand on equal footing. INSTEAD o the Forum picking its own man, or the Garvey forces their own man, or the N. A. A. C. P. its own man—instead of any selfish, self-seeking individual throwing his hat in the ring against others of the race who may become candidates, it should be the RACIAL DUTY of every Negro organization in this city to unite themselves, through duly representative leaders assembled in a gigantic mass meeting, and choose a civic representative of the race, concentrate th entire Negro vote behind him, plus whatever white votes he is big enough to command, and elect him. WE predict that, if this thing is done, Los Angeles will have a Black representative in the Council of this city in 1925! WE must choose a BIG MAN—a strong and able—a courageous honest and intelligent civic leader, otherwise the choice will be a total failure, no matter what unison there may be about it. In this choice, then, we must forget petty jealousies and prejudices, and be guided by the outstanding qualities of the MAN. WE warn our people that this thing is necessary to our own civic welfare. If we can elect Frederick M. Roberts to the California Legislature and keep him there for six years, we can, if we would only GET TOGETHER in an intelligent, statesmanlike manner, ELECT A NEGRO REPRESENTATIVE, o fable and courageous callibre, to the City Council, of Los Angeles. CHRISTMAS SERMON The Child Jesus By C. P. Jones "Unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given."—Isa. 9:6. As far as we are able to see from scriptures the first child born into the world was Cain. And he was a murderer. He was a type of perverted manhood. It is in the heart of most every boy and man to be a Cain, a murderer. Not all are ready to kill the brother of their immediate families, but they will on provocation; especially, as in Cain's case, on religious provocation; but they are ready to slay all right and that they fellows. "I'll kill you" is a common expression of state. See how many more ready men are to volunteer to kill and be killed than to volunteer for godliness, holiness, goodness, truth, peace. The brotherhood of man means but little. See how the nations are ready to rage and shed blood. See how the strong are ready to rob the weak. See how race hates race so that they take the very cross of the Supreme Martyr of the Ages and set it ablaze with hatred and injustice and murder and secret treachery, and cruelty unalterable as the Ku Klux Klan and its ilk. Cain, Cain, Cain. Kill, kill, kill. With the inevitable law hanging over our heads "With what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again." And the spirit of murder and oppression an acclamishment of hate and push and underhanded dealing has come down, in some form or other thru the ages. The Sons Of Peace But in all ages there have been those of the spirit of Abel who have loved, righteousness, justice, mercy, kindness, generosity, peace. These have longed for peace. They have hoped for it, prayed for it, labored for it, suffered for it, waited for it. Their archbishops saw visions of it, and en- compete them. They would forc child to be to learn what would do that Able could not do, bring peace to the earth. The Prince Of Peace And he has come. The angels heralded His birth with the song of peace on earth. He came and brought peace. He echeled the light of peace. He lived the life of peace. His presence carried peace. He showed the way of peace. He taugh t the doctrine of self denial, the doctrine of forbearing the pleasing of God. The glorious life of wisdom, understanding and service, Understanding hings peace, munderstanding always destroys peace. It is He that teaches and demands service and love in His name. The Testimony Of Christmas What other man was ever born whose birthday carries from year to year the hope, the kindness, the good cheer, the unselflessness, the light and happiness of the birth of Jesus? Time is marked from His birth Every business document of the millions of earth bears testimony to His birth, and the families and dedicated to the facts of His birth and death, to say nothing of the millions of flies who never saw Him who are dedicated to His service. In His name the sick rae raehed, peace is made between neighbors, hopes revive, prayers ascent, good deeds are done, the poor is remembered and helped, orphans are made glad and earth gets a taste of heaven to sweep away its darkness and blow away its fumes of brimstone. Hell is defeated. Devils are put to ront. "Unto us a child is born—a son." The most beautiful, the most touching and sweetest of all things in earth is a child. The whole earth works for the gives way to a child. Children are earth's one blessing that makes life worth living. Yet not every one is bleast with a child. But God gives His child to make tender our hearts and resurrect the best that is in us to dominance and power. The Son of God comes not as a flaming archangel or a thundering Jove, but a simple little bit of humanity, a little boy baby child that cooed and dimpled and wept; thus awakening the nobility of motherhood and fatherhood, sanctioning parentage and working the wonder of regenerating humanity on the plain where it lives in the sphere of its common routine of daily existence. Unto us a child is born, to show us the way of life, to take us to heaven, to bless us throughout eternal years. Born in a stable, laid in a manger, but yet the prince of life, the King of kings, and Lord of Lords. Blessed is he who believes in Him, who knows Him, who obeys Him. Such a one has life eternal. Amen and Amen. The Living Principle Of Diet 1. When a chemical analysis is made of the human body and also of the matter composing the earth, it is found that the constituents of the earth, or at least some of them, are to be found in the body; the difference being in the proportions found in each, and also in the fact that the elements of the earth are in their inorganic state while those of the body are in the organic form, which to a great extent constitute the difference between dead and living matter. between dead and living matter. it upbuilding inorganic matter but nature has wisely provided for this by utilizing the plants as the intermediary between the earth and man; endowing them, so to speak, with the capacity of changing inorganic matter to organic; thus preparing man's food for him from the earth of which by chemical analysis he is found veritably, to be a part. The various edible forms of plant life contain the essential requirements of the dietary of man. Even the flesh foods eaten it must be remembered originally came from the plants to the animals, they in turn giving to us, in reality, second hand the elements they received from the plants. The near these products of plant life are to their natural state the greater the amount of the vital elements they contain. It therefore easily follows that if we must get the greatest benefits from our foods we should have them as near to nature's method of providing them as we possibly can. Some of the most reliable constituents of our diet are to be found in the kernel of seeds and nuts. The complexity of our much vaunted modern civilization has made our diet problem intricate. Ourathers were thus saved from using it in its whole natural state and were thus used to cause the modern deficiency to which our modern life has made us heirs. The outer covering of grain in addition to containing certain minerals which are needful, also contains some types of a class of substances called vitamins which modern science has discovered to be a vital requirement of our body-needle. Other types of vitamins are to be found in a green leaves which often exert a growth, and when absent from the diet $ ^{i} $ found definitely to hinder development in growing animals. People whose diet consists in the main of highly milled foods, e.g. white flour and highly polished rice together with the other prepared devilishized products so conveniently procured in cartons, ready for use, ostensibly designed to save time, are depriving themselves of some of the very elements of life. And those who in adjoining areas of the village have developed a false distaste for milk, eggs and green vegetables will find a continuance of this course leading them to a premature grave. In addition to the service mentioned above the greens and outer coarse covering of grains serve another very useful role. In order to have healthy action of the intestinal tract a certain amount of bulk is necessary; when this is not taken the movements in the colon is sluggish, thus giving the appearance to take place with the production of toxic or poisonous substances which are absorbed producing a train of lilts that are beyond the scope of this article to discuss / If you will be advised rightly, you would select for your diet nature's products. Use the best whole wheat bread and get the benefit of the whole grain. Balance your diet with green vegetables and make use of milk and eggs in reasonable proportion. In other articles it should be much, when and how to eat. Any questions you may desire to ask will be cheerfully answered by Dr. V. C. Hamilton, 2005 Central Ave. Phone HUmbolt 7840. Signed, V. C. HAMILTON, M. D. PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST Rev. N. P. Greggs, Pastor Those who were privileged to attend the services last Sunday have much for which to be thankful. The Fountain of Inspiration began to bubble in the Sunday School where an hour, crowded with interest, was spent in preparing the minds of the young for the reception of God's eternal truths. From the character of the tones which polished forth from the mighty Organs and which were flung from the throats of fifty members of the Choir—God's Military Band—to the remotest corners of the edifice of worship, no one could have expected the subject of the morning sermon to have been on Peace. The pastor, speaking from the subject, "Life's Struggles—Its Victories and Defeats", delivered a message so full of power, power and inspiration as to cause the cups of those who had corne hungering and thirsting after righteousness to be filled to overflowing. He must have been deep in thought, who could have listened to this burning message and gone away without having felt a closer contact between himself and his Maker. Mr. J. H. Shackelford, using as his subject, "Faithfulness to Duty", delivered a very interesting address to the members and friends of the Christian Endeavor Society. The after discussion which followed was one beneficial information. From all present derived much help. This is our efforts to make this Society a powerful force in the up-building of God's Kingdom. In his address delivered on Sunday evening to a large attentive and appreciative audience, Judge Carlos Hardy of the Superior Court lived up to his reputation as being one of the most profound thinkers of the day. Speaking from the subject, "The Training of Man in his Threefold Nature". He eloquently and forcefully brought home to us the fact that the development of the spiritual nature of man has been very aptly reflected of the spiritual nature of the human family. We are very thankful to Judge Hardy for his timely message. Come out and worship with us next Sunday. BTHEL A. M. E. CHURCH 1511 W. 36th Street Major G. W. Prioleau, Pastor The Missionary Society met at the residence of Mrs. E. G. Prioleau, last Thursday. Mrs. Anna Brantley as hostess. A very interesting and profitable meeting was the opinion of all. The Sunday Sesquec numbered 87 on last Sunday. Preparations are being made for their annual Xmas tree and exercises. The pastor conducted the eleven o'clock services and preached to a very good congregation. "Whatsoever He sailitt to you, do it". John 2:6. Several visitors were present. In the afternoon the pastor preached at First A. M. E. Church, Pasadena, for Rev. John M. Brown. At 7:20 P. M. Deacon Washington preached for the pastor. The day was well spent. The Senior choir is doing well under the excellent instruction of Mrs. Bartleson, also the Junior Choir under Mrs. Adelaide Gladden. BETH Eden BAPTST TEMPLE Cor. 7th and Palma Street Rey. L. B. Brown, Pastor The services were of a high spiritual order all day last Sunday. A very large and responsive audience greeted the pastor at the 11 a. m. services. The serman was taken from Iss. 14:32. What then shall one answer the question of the Lord hast founded Zion and the poor of his people shall trust in it." The Rev. J. A. H. Eldridge and the Trinity Choir rendered a great service in Beth Eden Sunday night, while our pastor and choir served at Trinity. The two congregations enjoyed the change. Rev. Douglas Haines will preach Sunday night. The pastor will give a Christmas message and the wonderful Christ of the prophets. The Sunday school Xmas program will take place next Wednesday night. Xmas eve, night. A NEW PIANO TECHNICIAN In taking up the profession of piano tuning and repairing, voicing and tone regulating and being a member of the Negro race, I shall endeavor to produce the same high class work as any tuner of the other race. Having studied exhaustively for two years and having plenty of practical experience, I am prepared to give to the public at large expert service in this important branch of the musical profession. It has been said that our people generally make an overcharge for their specific needs. The teacher has instruction in business in relation to the public. My instructor cautioned me against this great fault of so many of our professional men and women. Moreover it is generally agreed that human beings possess five senses: The rarest Sixth Sense is Piano Sense. A man will buy a dollar watch and take care of it. But he will buy a three hundred dollar piano and neglect it. He will tune up his watch every day by winding it. But the piano may go up tuned a year at a time. Yet the mechanism of the piano is finer than that of a watch. Its work is as exacting and the value to be preserved is many times greater. Piano Sense is business sense, artistic sense and common sense combined and clarified. Proper interest save dollars that must be lost because he lost in depreciated value of the piano, or paid out in repair bills. Artistic sense perishes that a piano out of tune yields discords but no music. A tom-tom would be more musical and less embarrassing. For the wealth is judged by the outward appearance of the piano: Culture by its tone. Common sense enters into Piano sense in this way: Common sense will take a good care of a $300 piano as of a $300 horse. There should be a Society for the prevention of cruelty to pianos. Piano sense knows better than to let a tramp tuner tamper with a piano. Piano Sense asks the questions. It says: Where did you learn your proclu- sion? Did you click in your keyboard and about in a piano factory or did you learn it thoroughly by taking the course of a reputable school? Piano Sense says to the applicant: You claim to be a Piano Surgeon. Where is your diploma? Are you a graduate tuner or only a quack. I tune, voice, regulate and repair it is my soul business. My methods are modern, efficient and scientific. I studied under Niles Bryant, the leading piano expert of the country and am a graduate of the Piano School of Michigan. I studied of August, Michigan. No matter what ails your piano, I can set it right. I charge the regular prices, no more than the others charge. My special skill costs you nothing extra. It is thrown in for good measure. It is with this element that I expect to hold patronage. CLAYBORNE D. COOKSEY. Piano Technician. 1327 E. 48th Place. PUPILS' RECITAL John A.

SPRT PAGE CALIFORNIA EAGLE COUNTRY CLUB ACTIVITIES SERIES BEGINS XMAS ATHLETIC CLUB STAGES GREAT BOXING SHOW FOR BIG CROWD BABY GANS WINNER OF MAIN EVENT The match maker of the Assembly Athletic Club advertised a double main event and their were two events. Truly Baby Gans and Soldier put up a main event scrap as advertised but the other main event was the curtain raiser between Young Jimmy Dixon and Battling Hubic, more about it later. This Wednesday was bargain night for the fans as the management put on eight bouts instead of the usual six and it was noticed that the largest crowd that has ever attended the Assembly bouts was on hand for the show. This may be the last show of the year but there is a possibility that boxing may be held again next Wednesday night. THE ST. LOUIS GIANTS Now And All Winter At GOODYEAR PARK 64th and South Park Aves. SATURDAY. DEC. 20 KEN PARKERS ALL STARS GAME 2:00 P.M. SUNDAY. DEC. 21 PACIFIC ELECTRICS Admission 50c Boxes Reserved Ladies Free Every Saturday Like all the Avenue favorites Baby Gans boxing Soldier Gardner at 135 pounds in the main event tried to put his man away before the bout was half over. Gardner was so bloody and apparently weak by the second round that many of the cash customers started to leave thinking that Gans was due for another knockout. Gardner fooling everybody went the entire four rounds, but the decision was easily Gans'. Gans piled up his lead by hooking lefts and rights to the soldier's head and uppercutting at the break. The Soldier was doing his share of the slugging but Gans beat him to the punch. Gans hurt his right mit near the end of the fourth round and ended the bout hooking with only his left. Gardner is to be complimented for his gameness. GANS, LANGFORD AND SPARR The other part of the scheduled double main event was between Young Sam Langford and Jack Sparr. This was not Sam's night and also he lost the decision he didn't assimilate any great amount of punishment. The decision was a hairline one given to Sparr by the judges probably because of Sparr landing frequently with his right to Sam's jaw. Sparr also sent Young Sam's head back several times with a stiff left jab Sam displayed his usual line, aapping left to the stomach and overhand left with the clubbing effect and occasionally a right in the same manner. When after being stung our boy showed a willingness to slug and swap wallops with the erect Jack Sparr, the crowd got really interested and cheered. JACK THOMPSON THE AVENUE'S PET Jack Thompson can have anything he wants on the Avenue following his knockout of Jimmie Brown in the second round of the semi-windup. Brown is one of those boxers who swing from a shell but the blow he started at Thompson generally ended nowhere.The knockout came from one lone blow.Brown rushed Thompson who side stepped and hooked to the pit of the stomach.Ambulance. Another really interesting bout was the match between the heavyweights, Sailor Carroll and Sailor Borgardus.After being knocked out by young Ford last Wednesday night, Sailor Borgardus came back and made a really creditable showing against Sailor Carroll.Carroll with his cleverness and experience won the decision. He threw a gang of lefts into Borgardus 'face' while Borgardus always had to take a blow to get in one. Offener he took one without returning the compliment. Little Joe Burch was handed a green but tough boy in the person of Louise Martinez. What Martinez does not know about boxing will fill a book. He kept tearing in though which murdercus intent and with just enough clumsiness to keep Joe from knocking him out. When almost out I would seem, Joe would hook Martinez in the stomach and Martinez would come to life as if touched with high voltage wire. Joe Burch's markmanship was good ag Louie ended up with two beautiful black eyes. Joe won the decision having floored Martinez twice in the first round. In the third event Young Dixon and Kd Tuggles took up from where they left off last week. The decision was a draw. The Dixon chap showed more of a right hand this time but he must learn to shoot both his left and right straight from the shoulder if he expects to get anywhere. Willie Shields returning to the ring and boxing for the first time at the Assembly Club, handed Tommie Flores each choice in the first round. (Continued.) (Continued on next page) ST. LOUIS GIANTS TWICE WINNERS OVER GILMORE OIL CO. CLUB VETERAN FOOTE IN ST. LOUIS LINEUP BRINGS FANS TO THEIR FEET WITH REMARKABLE PLAYING What is a player like Footes doing working in a garage and playing Sunday baseball when there is a cry for major league talent in the National and Eastern leagues? Playing second base for the St. Louis Giants, Saturday and Sunday, Footes turned in a brand of baseball around the keystone sack that has never been equaled or surpassed in these parts before. With the Giants following the pace set by their new teammate it is not surprising that they defeated Gilmore both Saturday and Sunday. Saturday, the score was 9-3, and Sunday 3-1. It was a question as to how the Giants would perform with Riggins out of the lineup but Sunday's large crowd found that Riggins wasn't missed with Footes playing second and Russell short. Russell fits like a glove in short and throws as hard and fast as Riggins did. Every one knows he can field the ball, Saturday he had thirteen chances without a bobble. sell.

A NEW FRITZ POLLARD Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 20.—By The Associated Negro Press).—Johnny Shepard, the brilliant race backfull on the Pennsylvania Institute for the Deaf, has caused a sensation among the schoolboy teams this year. He is rated as a second "Fritz" Pollard. The Mute team has just completed the season undefeated, and in the game with the crack Ridley Park High school the two teams battled to a 3-3 tie. The game was played in four inches of mud and the brilliant Shepard brought the large crowd to its feet many times by his broken field running and his defense playing. Last Saturday the Mutes played their last game with Temple University and as usual Sheppard was the out-standing star of the game. The Mutes won 21 to 0, and the colored Mute made two of the four touchdowns. On one occasion Sheppard took the ball on his own 16-yard line and placed it on Temple's 15-yard line. A few seconds later he carried it over. His forward pass was perfect and the All-Suburban Schoolboy Eleteam. Sheppard has been placed on the All-Philadelphia Schoolboy Eleven and the All-Suburban Schoolboy Eleven. Rader took second on a balk. Chellguard fanned. Hits 1, runs 0, errors 0.

Features of game Ethel Waters and Earl Dancer Coming Monday night, December 22nd at Washington and Central Hall, will mask the most gala event of the season as well as the last big affair of 1924, when manager Ragtime Billy Tucker introduces the World's greatest phonograph record artist and Earl Dancer one o the race's greatest and most eccentric dancers. The world knows Ethel Waters as the Queen of the Blues. She is recognized as such all over the universe and her coming to Los Angeles has been looked forward to with great eagerness and anticipation. Now it is a reality as well as a fact for Manager Tucker has received letters with photos of the famous stars, saying that they would open at the Orpheum Theatre on Monday and would positively make an appearance at the dance and midnite Ramble that will be given in their honor on Monday night. Dec 22nd. You will remember that it was Ragtime Bilfy Tucker who made it possible for you to meet Mamie Smith and Sophie Tucker as well as many other artists. Now he is making it possible for you to meet Ethel Waters and Earl Dancer (don't forget that Earl s a native son) face to face, dance with them and he in their presence. BOXING (Continued from sport page that he failed to answer the bell for the 2nd. Willie just about closed both Flores eyes in that slugging round. As mentioned above the curtain raiser between Young Jimmie Dixon and battling Hubic was in really a man event. Young Dixon showed his inexperience in the four round game by fighting himself off his feet. Dixon thought the only time to quit swinging was when he couldn't raise his arms any longer. He was in that dangerous condition in the last of the fourth but the bell saved him. His bad generalship cost him the decision to Hubc. Dixon janded often on Hubic with his right and had Hubic down for a long nine count in the first round. Hubic came up strong in the second round and dropped Dixon for a short count. Dixon go up and hit Hubic many times after that. Fall on the jaw with his right but Hubic stood the gaff and finished much the stronger of the two gaining the verdict. P. E.

Marsh not to send in lump checks, covering several items within the registration classifications, but to send in separate checks with every transaction. In other words any person owning a passenger car, commercial "pneumatic" or commercial "solid" truck he is desiptic of registering, should send in one check for each vehicle and not a lump check. Similarly, one check should not be sent covering an application for license renewal, duplicate certificate and duplicate plates. One check should be sent for each transaction. Chief Marsh explains that this method will facilitate the handling of money by the Sacramento office and will eliminate the necessity of splitting the money into three or four parts, thus relieving the division of an immense amount of detail, and so speeding up registrations. The fee will be the same as last year. $2 for pleasure cars and truck and trailes the same as shown on face of last year's license. Unless you send or bring pink duplicate of license receipt issued last year you cannot receive a new license. Some Tips For Owners A dragging clutch frequently is the cause of a car being brought to the repair man by the owner, who fears the noise is caused by transmission trouble. When the car is standing and it is impossible to mesh the transmission gears without a rasping or grinding noise, it is evident that the utch is dragging. This trouble sometimes may be caused by the driver failing to throw out the clutch sufficiently to disengage it. It may be caused by improper adjustment in the link between the clutch pedal and the throw-out yoke. Also, if the clutch is designated with a clutch brake, some lack of adjustment may cause the clutch brake to fail to function, or the lining may be gone. In new cars, or in recently relined clutches, this sort of trouble sometimes is due to the high spots on the clutch lining not having worn off, causing a dragging, rather than slipping when the clutch is disengaged. The thing to do is to examine everything carefully, and if the trouble is not found in any of the points mentioned, it is obvious that the fault lies in the failure of the clutch plates to slide freely over the pins of spines. A spring clutch plate may make it impossible to throw out the latch sufficiently to disengage it. Lack of alignment also would cause this sort of trouble. In case of a leather-faced cone clutch, if the trouble were not found in any of the points mentioned, it would be due to the tightness between the bushing in the clutch spider and the clutch spindle or shaft. Keep all oilers and working surfaces free from dust; this will save much of the premature wear which is caused by grit. Every five minutes spent greasing the new car will save an hour's la- bor on a future repair bill. Loose timing gear chains cause a noise that is between a thump ntd a rattle. Properly adjusted brakes never get anyone in trouble. It is false economy to patch very old inne rubes. Trial of balloon tires covering the past year seems to have convinced engineers that walls must be made stiffer and several large the manufacturers, including Goodyear and General, announce that most of the tires of this type in the future will be made 4-ply, instead of 4-ply as, in the past, it is explained that additional plies in the tire walls give it a tougher carcase, without sacrificing any of the resilience that gives the balloon tire its easy riding qualities.
