MARTIN OF CALIFORNIA DISTRICT PURCHASES BEAUTIFUL HOME Home on Westren Ave. Recently Purchased By Bishop Martin At a recent general conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church, California, along with Washington, Oregon, British Guiana & Demerara, was created as the 11th district of the Zion Church and Los Angeles was to be the seat of the Episcopal residence. So as a part of the Bishop's comprehensive plan, he has selected a beautiful mansion in 29th Place through the enterprising realty firm of the Walter L. Gordon Company, who was very creditably represented in the person of Mr. Geo. H. Duncan. Mr. Duncan deserves much credit as he gives only part of his time to business, since he is a student in the college department of the University of Southern California: he is also the youngest son of one of the oldest and most highly respected families of this city. Mr. Walter L. Gordon, president of the Walter L. Gordon Co., predicts for young Duncan a brilliant future in the business world. Bishop John W. Martin, succeeds Bishop L. W. Kyle, on the coast, but to many he needs no introduction as for years he has been one of the biggest men of his church. In 1916 he was elected as Corresponding Secretary of the Board of Education with headquarters at St. Louis. Mo. He served in that position for eight years and before his election to the Board of Education he served for 10 years as president of Atkinson College, one of the most notable schools of the South, which is located at Madisonville, Ky. The Bishop is an alumnus of Lincoln University of Pennsylvania. The Bishop's family is made up of a charming wife and brilliant daughter. Mrs Martin before marriage was Miss Ola Ecton and was for a number of years matron of Atkinson College of Madisonville, Ky. Miss La Verne Martin, their only daughter, is a student at the University of Southern California. She is talented and very popular among the younger set. Los Angeles feels honored by their residency. ```markdown ``` Phone: VANDIKE 9244 Volume No. 39 It has been called to our attention by H. Brown, East 9th Street, Cecil hary, 2524 1-2 Central Avenue; Jeff Cline and Robert Salter, 1419 Hopper Avenue, of conditions and treatment rendered at the Newton Street Poince station, which if true savors of the reign of brutality not unlike that practiced in the slough of Mississippi against the colored people; or that of the Germans in 1914 against all people. We are well acquainted with H. Brown, who conducts a highly creditable business on East Ninth Street. We have always found him reliable to the utmost and a thrifty and enterprising citizen, we cannot help but put credence in what he tells us, he seems to be the leading character in this drama and we relate his version of the affair. He said that on delivery for his tailor shop at 25th and Hooper Ave. he went into a place and while there it was raided, he had to go to the station with the rest, of this I had no complaint. While I was waiting for booking, I saw one of the officers beating and kicking one of the prisoners in a brutal manner. I took out my pencil and began to write the officer's number. This seemed to anger him, he rushed up to me and said: "You d—black s—b—you need not take my number, I am Mr." calling his name to me, and hauling away, struck me in the mouth. I did not stand meekly by. I struck him back. Another officer came and struck at me and I let it at him. They put me in the dungeon and there my color was the subject of their profane and insulting remarks. In view of these charges we called up Captain Lyone who directed us to the source of the following citations of Officers O. R. Roberson and Shunn, which was also the version of Sergeant Phillips and acting Lieut W. W. Fletcher. They disclaim any of the allegations of Mr. Brown except that Brown did hit them and that he was boisterous and said that he told them that he would get their jobs, that he knew all of the judges. This makes the proposition one of veracity between the above officers and known. We have no complaint for officers making arrests and think that they should and uphold them in doing when the law is violated, but we do protest against the alleged brutality which is reported from time to time as practiced by those who are guilty of the same. What a man says about his pull and beating him in the jaw and maltreating him are two different things. Gordon Manor Tract Very Popular With The Buying Public Within the last ten days The Walter L. Gordon Company announces through its president, Mr. Walter L. Gordon, that their office sold alone slightly over $25,000.00 of lots. The Walter L. Gordon, Company and The East Side Realty Company are jointly by contract the exclusive agents for the Gordon Manor Tract, they are collaborating with the other brokers in the selling of this choice property. Mr. Gordon says that it is a pre-opening tract interview with Dr. W. C. Gordon the owner, and after whom the tract is named, that he predicted that the tract of 1212 lots would be sold within 8 months, but at the rate they are going, they will in all probability be sold out within five months. It was felt there would be an average sale of six lots a day, but beyond all expectations they are selling within a fraction of 12 lots per day. As a special to our many friends there will be for the many thirty days a special rate of $10 down and $10 up for lots at $1000 or undeal, and all lots for $1000 or upwards, 1 per cent down and 1 per cent up per month. The investing public applauds a good proposition as is shown by their readiness in buying. The Red Cap's Association through its officers Mr. Durden and Mr. Cefr Farar bought $16,240.00 of lots through the Walter L. Gordon Co. To-Mr. C. E. Houston, Genl.

Mississippi Protects "Uncle Tom's Cabin" (By The Associated Negro Press) New Orleans, La., Jan. 15.—That the white south is running true to form in regard to the Negro is evidenced by the attitude of the Natchez Mississippi, chamber of commerce which objects to a film company using their scenery in filming the background of Uncle Tom's Cabin. In a letter to the management the secretary says "That the people of Natchez feel that they would not care to be a party to the production in any way if the lines of the book are to be followed; but, on the other hand, if the producing company would remove all objectional features from the film, such as brutality towards the Negro, Natchez would welcome the cameraman with open arms."

Jan. 15.—"Were Booker T. Washington alive today and to see your work, he would feel that you are a living answer to the ideals from which he labored." Thus spoke a prominent business man of Philadelphia to Frederick Massiah recently. Without question or doubt, Mr. Massiah occupies one of the most unique positions in American commercial life. Besides the almost marvelous attainments of Mr. Massiah in the engineering construction field, he is an outstanding example of the fact that regardless of all other seeming handicaps in the United States, merit wins. In his case, it does more than win, it is applauded. An interesting art of this fact, in the case of Mr. Massiah, has the true truth that so quietly he has gone about with his achievements in recent years that his heights have been recalled without the knowledge being very largely broadcast by Colored America, either in the country at large, or in his own city of Philadelphia. There are thousands and thousands of people who pass the great construction signs in various parts of the City of Philadelphia and New Jersey, who do not know that Frederick Massiah is a man of the racial group. Many trade publications, and many of the big daily newspapers of Philadelphia and New York, refer to the achievements of Mr. Massiah in glowing terms, and with numerous illustrations of his work in various parts of the country, but they do not resort to race. The one fine thing about Mr. Massiah is his deep interest in the people of his blood. He is connected with many organizations in Philadelphia, civic, fraternal and social, and is active, so far as his heavy responsibilities permit, in promoting their welfare. Reaching Out of the Great Unknown There is nothing too big for us to tackle, from one to one hundred stories, Mr. Massiah told The Associate Negro Press here recently. That is the key to this article. The life story of Mr. Massiah is filled with thrills. He is a native of Barbadoes, British West Indies, the native home of Ormand Forte, editor of the Cleveland Herald, and of Bindley Cyrus, who married the daughter of the late Booker T. Washington. He has been here only about ten years. The detailed account of those ten letters written at a school some of these days, will probably be the successor in life stories to Booker Washington's "Up From Slavey." That's another story. It is desired to say now that Mr. Massiah has the contract for the concrete construction work, which is now under way, of one of the finest new business blocks ever erected in the East, and it is located in Chestnut Street, the leading business thoroughfare of Philadelphia. He has just completed, almost, the construction of an illiptical concrete tower on the new Church of the Ascension of Our Lord, which has been commented on at length by many experts and publications as an "innovation in concrete work." The tower is 180 feet high. Mr. Massiah is now being considered in connection with some of the most extensive building projects of 1926, the general contracts running into millions. That such a man is a real inspiration to all the young people of America, should go without saying. BEANS NEARLY FATAL TO FAMILY (By The Associated Negro Press) New Orleans, La., Jan. 15—Cliff for dPrayer, his wife Emma, and Albert Dangerfield, are at a local hospital suffering from ptomane poisoning following a meal consisting of beans purchased at a small grocery near their residence. Hospital authorities hold out faint hopes for their recovery. W. F. HOWZE, PREMIER MERCHANT OPENS MODERN GENERAL MARKET AT WATTS Howze's Meat Market and Grocery Market At Watts, Calif. The story of the progress through hard trials, disappointments and over opposition made by Mr. W. F. Howze and how he, without any capital, but by sheer industry, thrift and straightforward dealing has crested on the Pacific Coast one of the most modern and complete general markets, reads like fiction. Yet it is a fact which stands out and is a monument to his genius and a high credit to the section which it serves. This man has demonstrated the fact that the capacity for our group to succeed is unlimited. Leavigny Charlotte, N. C. where he was reared in 1900 he journeysed to New York, worked for a steamship Company, but yearned for the opportunity to go into business for himself. He left New York and landed in Los Angeles, in October 1909. He was without any capital to speak of but in a small way entered the meat business, with an in and out success and distress. After four years he went to the Imperial Valley. Here in the mighty Imperial Valley he struck his stride in the realm of General Merchandise and he succeeded from the start and conducted one of the most pretentious general stores in the Valley. Young People To Conduct Service AFTERNOON CEREMONY AT SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH. JAN. 17. 1926. Thomas Lee Griffith, Jr. If in knowledge there is excellence and enthusiasm is an indication of success, then the program which is to be given by the Young People, Sunday afternoon, at 2:30 P. M. at the Second Baptist Church on 24th and Griffith Ave., will be an achievement in the history of these dedicatory services. During the last two weeks of dedicatory services, greetings have been extended to the members and friends of the Second Baptist Church by the co-operation of various groups and churches. These greetings have not at all been limited to any particular race or denomination, for in answer to a hearty welcome of the church people have come from far and near to participate. Such an achievement is not only a credit to that denomination or to the Christian thinking people of our group, but it is a credit to the race at large. One can fail to perceive that in that particular phase of human development the Negroes of Los Angeles have achieved success. Since this edifice has been completed different minds have given their However he never lost sight and kept the vision of a great market in this section and after battling the scorching heat and inconveniences of a semi-tropical climate for eight years, he disposed of his business at El Centro and came back to Los Angeles. He selected the site where his pretentious store building is situated, 325 South Wilmington Street, Watts, and today his dream is realized as the owner of a general market, which is concealed by all, who have seen it, as about the niftiest and most complete general store that it is possible to devise. One spectator said it is so complete in every detail that, there is no possible way to improve it. Mr. Howze has been greeted with a most splendid patronage, even before his grand opening, which is scheduled for January 15th, notice of which will appear on another page of this issue. Mr. Howze has an investment here of more than $16,000-00, employs 4 salesmen and will ever strive to meet all demands of his patrons by giving to them the best service, the freshest goods at prices which will be right at all times. answer to the call of welcome, and on Sunday, the 17th inst., the last answer, which will mark the close of these dedicatory services, will be under the direction of the young people of this city. Such a program is the combined efforts of many organizations who stand for ideals and principles of a kindred nature. The general public will be quite unfortunate if it fails to hear the address of Allan Nichols, debating instructor of the University of Southern California, instrumental selections by Miss Naida McCullough and many other addresses and musical numbers given by some of the most able young people of the city. Mr. Paul R. Williams, designer and architect of the Second Baptist Church will be one of the main participants on the program. A hearty welcome is extended to all. Children Raid Moonshine Still (By The Associated Negro Press) Laurel, Miss., Jan. 15. A novel raid was made by a group of small Negro children on a moonshine liquor still when they brought in two lard cans, one of ten gallons capacity and the other twice as large containing mash and the other intended to be used as a furnace. The still was found in a neighborhood inhabited by whites. 1879-1925 $2.00 THE YEAR No. 32 d Jail!! COMMENTS By: W. J. WHEATON Seargeant Hanson Outley, formerly of the 9th U. S. Cavalry, has been discharged from the service. This was done by the War Department at the request of the Liberian government which maintains a frontier force of 1,000 uniformed men. They are troops which were trained under the late Colonel, Charles Denton, Young. Seargeant Outley will be given a Captain's commission by the Liberian government and his salary will be $1600 and allowance amounting to $900 yearly. Seargeant Outley was chosen because of his soldierly qualities. He held a commission and served with the 349th field artillery during the late World War. After he has had instruction concerning his duties from the State Department he will sail immediately for his post of duty. —00— One of our great church journals, the A. M. E. Christian Recorder, takes issue with Attorney Clarence Darrow for advising Negroes to pay less stress on David and the Lord and more attention to the matters which concern them in this life. We claim that as a race we do pay too much stress upon things spiritual and too little attention to things material. We admit that the church has given us our first lessons in organization, that they have moulded our lives in a deeper sense of purpose. We been the widower of the age, but conditions have changed since the slave in the "fence corner" sang "You may have all the world, give me Jesus." Yes: We need a religion. Religion, in some manner, is necessary to well-being, but let us not erect too many spires, let us erect a few temples of commerce. If we are to acknowledge the leadership of our preachers—which they depend us to do—why will they not emphasize the necessity of engendering faith in the honesty and integrity of each man or woman of the Race who bids for their support in some business. We are no Agnostic, we were brought up and still retain the faith of John Wesley, but we do say that the mass of the Negroes should be learned to organize their money, organize their civic strength, stop their eternal jealousies and still maintaining their trust in God strive for some of the economic benefits which accrue from collective strength, and we look for the preachers (our leaders) to lead the forward movement. HOW WOULD YOU LIKE IT? The following editorial appeared in the San Francisco Call with the caption quoted above and which we are reproducing: "A Pittsburgh judge has turned Sandy Husey, a Negro, loose, although the governor of North Carolina wanted him returned to the South to answer charges of selling liquor. The Northern judge refused t" return a man to a state where members of his own race could not sit on a jury at his trial." He thought Sandy Husey wouldn't have a fair trial down South. And he WOULDNT. You can argue about it all you wish, but people of one race do NOT give fair trials to people of another. In Detroit recently Clarence Darrow asked twelve white men, trying eleven Negroes, what they'd do if they were facing a trial before a Negro jury. He told them they'd take ONE look at the jury and plead GUILTY." —00— A white jury remembers white injustices to the black man and is unfair. A Negro jury remembers the same injustices and is equally unfair. HOW WILL THE NEGRO VOTE IN THE COMING ELECTION That question is being asked by anxious aspirants for office in the coming elections which will determine the political color of the next Congress. There is wide spread discontent. Much dissatisfaction prevails among the protelariat, voters of the race, who, after all determine the result. Of course the fellow who carries the vote in his "vest pocket" is on hand with his blastic bragadocia, but his influence is negligible. His selfish schemes are so apparent that even his handshake in avoided. The attempt of the Administration head to straddle the issue has set the thinking (Continued on Page Six) Who Is Your Favorite?

Tilton on Sunday, the 10th of January, 1926, the City of Los Angeles lost a pioneer citizen whose usefulness kept pace with the tremendous growth Los Angeles has undergone since he came here in 1887. Brother A. L. Tilton was born in Independence, Missouri, in 1864. After completing a grammar school education he was duly licensed as a school teacher, this in 1884, and for a while taught country school in the State of Missouri. Hearing the call of what was then the growing West, Brother Tilton left Missouri, worked for a while in the State of Texas, and, in 1887, came to Los Angeles. He served as head waiter at what was then leading hostelleries of the city, for a long while, and for the past seventeen years, has been a faithful and respected employee of the Federal Government in the Post Office Department. During the presidency of William H. Taft, Brother Tilton was the assistant custodian of the Federal Building. Brother Tilton took an active part in the political and social affairs of our group in this city for a long number of years. His interest in the race was particularly manifested in his Lodge and Church life. He was one of the first of the Order of Knights in the West, and was a Past Chancellor Commander in that Order. But recently, he was, for several years, the Grand Treasurer of the United Brotherhood of Friendship, and held the office of Grand Auditor at his death. He was a staunch churchman and was a faithful member of Wesley Chapel M. E. Church for the past twenty years, during which time he served as a trustee and was the treasurer of the Trustee Board when he was called to a larger trusteeship in the church Triumphant. More than thirty-five years ago, he was joined in holy wedlock to the loving wife who survives him, Mrs. Anna Tilton, and maintained, with pride and with zealous care, a home in which he set a fine example of Christian conduct and broad hospitality.

When aii agent does not sign his principal's name, but merely signs his name as agent, is he bound, when ex- ecuting an instrument ? A. Yes. If an agent, in executing a Dill or note for his principal, does not diselose the name of his principal on the face of the instrument, but exe- cutes the whole instrument in his own name, he alone will be personally li- able on such instrument, and the fact that he adds the word “agent” or some other word importing an agency to his name «oes not relieve him from liability. Q. What is meant, by the term a “witness in the case? ‘A. A “witness” is one whose dee- laration under oath is received as evidence on any matter, by affidavit or otherwise. The colle use of the term “affidayit” is misleading; can- not give testimony on affidavit alone, must be cross-examined by other at torney in deposition proceedings. Q. Are pensions paid as a bonus from the government. A. No. Pensions are allowances paid to an individual by the govern- ment in consideration of service ren- dered, or in recognition of merit, civil or military.

Did you ‘ever find yourself as they say “in bad” with some one whose favor you needed Have you ever been misun- derstood by the public and unjustly ‘conlemned by them? Have you ever |one wrong and been justly con- demned both by conscience and oth- erwise. Have you ever been poor enough to need the help of some one chard for you to approach? Have you ‘ever wanted to borrow money to car- ‘ry one vour business or get out of a ‘tight? Have you ever fallen inexpli- ‘cably into trouble or misfortune or ‘crime so that the law got its clutches jon you? If so then you have felt ‘the need of some one to speak a good |word to you, You have needed an ad- |vocate, an intercessor. ‘The Successful Advocate Idaysman, a solicitor, a defender, one whose word and influence can help your cause, one whose wisdom can deliver. | ‘ihe chief butler spoke up for Jo- [seph and got him out of prison. Joab ‘spoke for Absalom and got him re- ‘toed to the favor of David. Barna- |bas spoke up for Saul before _ the jchureh and got them to receive him But just ax we need some one to |speake for ux at timer to procure the favor of men we need a spokesman in the spiritual realm, an advocate with God.

They had added sin to sin They had blinded their eyes to al ‘truth that they might do so, Isa. 30 1.

SILVER FOX CLUB NOTES Hello, Everybody: We hope you haven't been over curious to know the place of our coming dance on Friday the 29th. Inst, which isn't a dance after all, but merely a small party to be known as a "benefit Charter Dance." Which isn't a "benefit" after all, the tax of 35 cents is merely to cover charges for hall, music etc. Well we said that it would be the first time in this hall but after the Sorority affair, scheduled at Rutherford's was moved there, we find that we are the second group to stage an affair in the New Eagle Hall, owned and controlled by Mr. and Mrs. Bass of The California Eagle. Hence its name. Regarding the second affair mentioned last week; we find ourselves balled up owing to the fact that the Lenten season is just about to begin or rather will do so ere we could easily arrange a masterpiece of a ball for your enjoyment. That is—unless we get busy right away—Whadayesy? Shall we or shall we not? You know we don't want to cheat any of these Roman Catholics out of a good time, so a dance during Lent, is quite ice. So lets have your opinion. Meanwhile look out for your invites to the one on the 29th, at The new Eagle Hall, 822 Central Ave. S'Long. The Novelty Limited 500 Club has now resumed its regular meetings after a most enjoyable holiday season. All the members were together and opened the season Xmas Eve, with a "drop in" party at Mrs. Carrie Smith's. During the week there were numerous parties and breakfasts.

ARE YOUR "FEELINGS HURT?" By: F. P. Boykins Some women are always "feeling hurt," at something—nobody knows what, very like, or cares after a while. They make the world miserable and themselves doubly so. They are the torment of their families, the terror of their friends, the disgust of their employers. Now, sensitivity is not a sign of sense. To put it on the very lowest ground of selfish policy, the woman who "feels hurt" and shows it, makes a ruinous mistake. People are apt to hate you in proportion as they hurt you. Your real lovers are those who feel that they have helped or pleased you. If one believes that, why not get out of it a little worldly and womanly wisdom? To go comfortably through this world one need a certain amount of liking and affection even. I was going to say of admiration. Who likes a friend who is always taking offence at something and said or unsaid? Who can admire long, or love, the one that notes suspiciously your every look and word for signs of neglect or waning regard? Who never gives her own love grandly and heartily, but is always scrutinizing what she gets in return to see if she hasn't been cheated in the measure? The meantime a woman can do is to "feel hurt." I say woman, because I think this particularly a woman's vice. Some men have it—womanish men. For the very reason that your life is a love life, your mistake and your sins are the faults of the loving. And this is such a very hypocrite of a fault, pretending oftentimes to be dear love itself. WIDELY KNOWN MUSIC TEACHER DIES (By The Associated Negro Press) Philadelphia, Pa., Jan. 15—Mrs. Ida May Yeocum, one of the most widely known teachers of music in this city, died at her home in South Philadelphia during holiday week.

She had been in failing health for some time. She had trained many persons now prominent in the musical world. FRIENDSHIP WENT TOO FAR (By The Associated Negro Press) New Orleans, La., Jan. 15—Because Delphine Reynard was friendly to another woman's husband, she is now in a local hospital suffering from five bullet wounds fired by Frances Williams, the angered wife, who is in jail charged with shooting with intent to kill. --- Your Big Opportunity Do you want to give your full time or spare time and be handsomely paid for it?

So be careful when you speak about the "moons" and do not get them mixed, as you can very easily be misunderstood. The other Wednesday evening, detective Nicholas B. Harris, that famous detective, who tells those most interesting and thrilling detective stories every Wednesday over radio K. F. I., stated that a very charming young lady came into his office the other day requesting him to aid her in finding a husband, and not one she had lost either. According to that statement good "sheels" must be hard, and say "sheliks", because a fellow has to be a "sheik" before he becomes a husband this day and time. Now girls, if you can't find the "sheik" you want, you know where to go for aid. Bughouse fables. Senior: "I heard that Johnny ran for student body president." Absent minded scrub." "Yes?

Don't take this seriously folks, as this is just a "candied joke" Mr. Lessie Nickeson says "She is fine good two, with eyes of blue." Has anybody seen his girl?

No one can gainayse the wonderful good such a proposition will bring to pass and no doubt its efforts for future usefulness will receive from all neighborhoods a hearty suport. Beginning next week Dr. Ruth Temple of the attending staff of the City Health Maternity Dept, instructor and attending clinic of the White Memorial Hospital and Boyle Ave. Dispensary, will start a very practical column in our paper. Dr. Temple is specializing in women's diseases and obstetrics and these columns will be addressed especially to women and young girls. But the men are going to beat the women reading them because they are most anxious to know all about women and then men also will be discussed in these columns and they want to see what the women are saying about them. PHYSICAL NEEDS TO RECEIVE PROPER ATTEN-TION Ignorance is stalking through our homes, slaying our bodies and depriving our souls. No people can be a strong people which is not an intelligent people. We are spending hundreds of dollars a year in studying Latin, French, Geology and other scientific and literary subjects. This is only right. We need all of the mental culture which we can acquire. But we are ignorant, densely ignorant about our bodies, and these all mental culture is not sufficient or is useless unless we make our bodies strong and clean, for educated weaklings after all are only half men and women. The column will be conducted under the caption: "PLAIN FACTS," and if the "little doctor" tells us correctly they will be plain. All silly modesty will be cast aside and as intelligent men and women we will discuss everything under the sun that is practical in the bodies of ours, which the Creator has given us and for the care of which He is holding each of us responsible. women --- Raga----Six January 15, 1926 DR.

In California, there is a wide spread disaffection which will prove a great factor in determining the result and probably defeat some of the aspirants who depend on the blind partizanship of the Negro. The day is past when the bare mention of the names of great benefactors of the race, who on the stage of action have performed their part, have passed. We revere the names of Lincoln, Sumner, Chandler, and that host who made history and whose names were the synonym of humanity, but we also recognize the FACT that in principles which dominated their political lives no longer exist. Economic factors should determine the vote we cast. It has always been our desire to cease the importing of an executive for some racial expression of solicitude in his message to the Congress. When William McKinley was elected there was pleading to have the delegation headed by the late Bishop, Ben Arnett, reconsire the presentation of a Bible and proclaiming him as the special champion of the Race. It was without await. It was considered veritable treason on the part of a few unstart youngsters. It was in vain that we plead that such ointmented our plans of being recognized as an integral and not a special part of the nation. We held that to be for special privileges because of race nullifies our fight for full AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP and its rights which the CONSTITUTION GUARANTEES. Let us vote for the measures—not the MAN. HAVE FIRST AND SECOND CLASS HAIRCUTS (By The A-associated Negro Press) New York, Jan. 15.—So high has the cost of haircuts become in Berlin, Germany, that a system of first and second class cuts is being employed. The first-class shave or haircut is given in an unhoused chair, and the second-class in a cane-seated affair, in which the customer has to stretch back his neck. NEW Y. M. Ground Brea Much activity is in evidence in and about the Y. M. C. A. headquarters at this time. It all comes about by the fact that real construction work has started which means th erection of the New Building and its completion by July 1st. T. T. Waite, the well-known contractor, has started the ball a rolling and is clearing the building site and, removing the house thereon. Prominent Men Endorse Pacific Beach Club Here are a few opinions given by men who have thoroughly investigated every angle of the Pacific Beach Club. Dr. Albert Baumann— I am taking this means to express my hearty co-operation with and confidence in the Pacific Beach Sales Organization and its promoters. Those interested in the promotion of the proposition no doubt saw a need for such an institution in our midst. Unfinchingly and boldly against almost unsurmountable odds they have accomplished a miracle in the transformation of their ideas and visions into reality. There is a crying need for this Beach. Necessity demands it. My association with the Pacific Beach Club is due to a careful investigation of the Charter, its purposes, and the personnel of the organization which I found to be in-all respects as represented. It is indeed a pleasure for me to feel that I am associated with others equally as interested It will be interesting to you to know that only a few days ago I visited the Beach site and it was a source of inspiration to witness the mechanics at work on the large buildings, the dance pavilion and bath house. I noticed also that the pilings for the remainder of the structures, approximately seventeen hundred feet had been driven. I am certain, from my close observation, that this project should be completed in a short space of time and every member of our group who can, should avail himself of a membership, if not for the good that he may personally receive, at least for the good of the race. With best wishes for an early completion of the project, I am ALBERT BAUMAN. H. C. Hudson H. E. C. Hudson, an interested in the Pacific Beach Club because of the growing tendency in the Pacific Coast to private ownership of the ocean frontage. This does not in any sense mean that we, as a race, relinquish or minimize our rights to municipal beaches, but we simply desire to own some part of the beach as private property. When the opportunity was offered me through the Pacific Beach Sales Organization to own a part of this vast beach frontage, I did not hesitate to connect myself with the organization. Nor have I regretted it. The growth and construction of the Club's buildings at the present time have been beyond my fondest hopes. I heartily recommend to the members of my race, the purchase of memberships in the Pacific Beach Club. My membership in the Pacific Beach Club has been the source of great pride to me and my family. First, because of the great need of such a Club in this great outdoor country; and second, because of the chance to own and control a part of the great Pacific Coast beach frontage. The property, just as it stands today with its Bath House and massive Egyptian Ball Room is worth a million Dollars to our group. As for my membership—I would not take One Thousand Dollars for it this minute. Dr. J. T. Smith The Pacific Beach Club affords to our group a highly creditable place for recreation and movement. The Beach—one of the most beautiful in the Pacific Coast, and the buildings fast coming to completion will be everything desired in appointment. The Pacific Beach Club deserves the wholehearted support of our people a beach with ample frontage, where we may freely enjoy ourselves unmo-lested. Mr. J. B. Bass, Editor Calif.

The Board of Management must mention, Club House, etc., I am inspired to such an extent that my personal congratulations are in order for the great progress which is being made in the completion of your magnificent structures, and the grounds upon which they are situated. I consider this undertaking and entire proposition as the greatest ever put up to our people in America. It speaks in its massiveness and grandeur for itself as no words at my command could express. Clarence A. Jones, Attorney The Pacific Beach Club is one of the outstanding movements recently started, which vitally concerns our racial groupe. The location, the extent of the land, and the convenience and splendid im-provements being made, are such as to merit the approval and financial interest of all persons who have the futur- well-being of the Negro at heart. Fred C. Williams, Editor Pacific Defender The rapid progress in the completion of the buildings, board walks, grounds and approaches of the Pacific Beach Club is a concrete and indisputable evidence of the sincerity of the promoters and builders of this wonderful recreational resort. My visit to Pacific Beach has convinced me along with thousands of others that here, at last, on the ocean front, we will have one of the most wonderful beach resorts In the World, with an opportunity to enjoy ourselves with facilities equal to those of other groups. I have no hesitancy in suggesting that everyone whose means will allow, should become a member of the Pacific Beach Club, as the certificate entitling one to the privileges of this great play-ground will be a contribution to the peace and contentment, to both present and future generations. ```markdown ``` Delegation Makes Tour of Inspection of New Townsite Delegation Makes Tour of Inspection of New Townsite (By The Associated Negro Press) Atlantic City, N. J., Jan. 15—Predicting that Mizjah, the town-being established near here, would help to solve the congested living problems of Philadelphia and other cities, while providing a new haven for oncoming migrants. A group of men prominent in business, religious and welfare activities of the country headed by Mr. Anthony Overtor President of the Douglas National Bank of Chicago, Ill., spent a day last Tuesday inspecting the land and investigating the opportunities of the venture. The men who are enthusiastic in their endorsement of the idea which prompted Mr. N. Rathbliott, President of the development, and a well-known business man and philanthropist of Philadelphia, are as follows: Dr. L. K. Williams, President of the National Baptist Convention; J. Finley Wilson, Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks; Mr. Anthony Overton, President of the Douglas National Bank and President of the Victory Life Insurance Company of Chicago, Ill.; Dr. Earnest Lyon of the Liberian Council; Rev. J. H. Branham of Chicago, L.; Dr. J. H. Jordan, Secretary of the Foreign Mission Board; Rev. Pennick, President Baptist State Association of Illinois; Rev. Junius Grey of Baltimore, and Dr. Martin, pastor Asbury M. E. Church, Atlantic City; Mr. Earnest T. Atwell of Philadelphia, and Mr. Ira A. Hall, Deputy of Elks, Camden, N. J. These, however, are but a few of the well-known ministers and business men who have indulged the 'Mizpah development as opening a new door of opportunity. The National Baptist Convention has made plans for a $50,000 church to be erected at Mizpah. Bids for certain industries have been considered. CT IS LET february 1st have every reason to expect that the Building will be ready for occupancy by July 1st. Therefore, as the building is all set to go, the general Board is calling for the payment of all pledges and are satisfied that the people will be as loyal as ever and help this good work to go on by promptly meeting their solemn obligations by paying up their pledges. The Elks also contemplate building a home on twenty-five acres at Mizpah. The Mizpah development comprises about 200 acres situated on the Pennsylvania Electric Railroad on the direct route between Atlantic City and Philadelphia. Passenger buses are running from Mizpah to Atlantic City. The distance is only twenty miles from Atlantic City and forty miles from Philadelphia. Most of the inhabitants who are not farming on a small scale commute to Atlantic City and other nearby cities where they work. KLANS SURRENDER CHARTERS (By The Associated Negro Press) New Orleans, La., Jan. 15.—According to a report by the Secretary of State, the Ku Klux Klans at De Quincy, Hammond, Kentwood, Covington, Haynesville, Many, Coushatta, Logansport, Colfax, Eros, Springhill, Bernice, Jamestown, and Cedar Grove have surrendered their charters during the year just closed. But the cities of New Orleans, Dogalusia, Crowley and Ponchatoula, there in the Negro region is exploited, are still on the Klan ropes in business at the old stand.

NEGRO OUTLOOK HOPEFUL NEGRO OUTLOOK HOPEFUL (By The Associated Negro Press) Surveying the passing year and forecasting the immediate future, the Associated Negro Press of Chicago, affiliated with the radical wing of racial journalism, concludes upon a hopeful note, "After all, in the deep recesses, the heart of America beats right." Progress, however, "does not just happen," it reminds; "pursuit of happiness" must be constant, courageous, intelligent. Negro journalism has been considered from a more important viewpoint in recent years than was formerly the case. . . Incessant effort, because of ace; and all criminals, regardless of race, are treated alike." That "all criminals, regardless of race," shall be "treated alike," is rather the substance of things hoped for than accomplished fact in the Southeastern states. The trend is toward that condition and the rate of progress is encouraging, but complete parity is not yet realized and no go can come of saying so. Community of effort among the well disposed of all groups toward expelling the process were better than premature or anticipatory optimism. "There is," indeed, as the Negro study indicates, "a larger disposition to mete out evenhanded justice." No slight gain that; nor can much more be said as yet. All may take satisfaction in the finding of this Negro agency that "Colored America has a chance," in business, literature, industry, farming, "in all lines where there are productive possibilities;" that "right-thinking white people are increasing in number" and "for the most part have not quite the courage, but the convictions," the Negro editor, comment, "even this is to be appreciated." The net deduction is that "the better mind of white America is getting better," while in the Negro group the tendency is to "shove to the discard where it rightly belongs" the "mind of oppression and depression," the "mind of differences less in principle than in details of definition and application — Southern newspapers generally can assent cordially to the year's end toast of the Associated Negro Press: "Long live America—an America of honor, justice and fair play; an America unafraid of the possibilities of equal opportunity; an America sportsmanlike, rather than petty, in dealing with all fellow Americans!" Dunbar Hospital Auxiliary Success On Thursday afternoon at 2 p. m. Jan. 7th, Mrs. J. J. Christian opened her home to the auxiliary for a benefit 500 party. The home was decorated with beautiful spring flowers and soft lights, which made the popular game more enthusiastic. The handsome prize was won by Dr. VVaadam Somerville, Mrs. Chas, Connor and J. J.

Shields On next Tuesday evening, January 19th, a monster banquet will be tendered Dr. George W. Shields, pastor of Douglas Temple as a testimonial of the high regard and esteem in which he is held by his co-workers and many friends. This banquet is his first public appearance since his return from an intensive trip abroad, during which time he visited many parts of Europe, took a peek at the Holy Land and had audience with the ruler of Abyssinia. No doubt a great concourse of people will be out to greet the doctor on this occasion. At a later date the doctor will give a thrilling lecture on his trip abroad which announcement will be made in the near future. Moderator R. H. Rozier Off For Birmingham Rev. R. H.

"Preacher's" Wife Has Two Husbands (By "The Associated Negro Press") Camden, N. J., Jan. 15—Judge Shay smiled and threw a new-support case out of Criminal Court here Monday morning when the wife virtually admitted that she had another husband neither dead or divorced. The prisoner was. Kirk Kersey, known as "preacher," and a former resident of Homesteadville, N. J. Ella, his wife, of 1145 South Eighth Street, was the complainant. "Isn't it true," the husband's lawyer asked, when the wife took the witness stand, "that you have one or two husbands living." "I am divorced," replied the woman. "Where were you divorced?" the attorney asked. "I mean they died," said the woman. "I got divorces by death." "Now," persisted the attorney, "isn't it true that those husbands of you still live with you." "Well," said the wife, breaking down, "I ain't no worse than he is. He's got one living too." That was enough for Judge Shay. He quashed the indictment and ordered the Assistant Prosecutor to investigate the possibility of bigamy.

SPORT PAGE CALIFORNIA EAGLE TENNIS BOWL FOOTBALL TRACK BOXING GOLF COUNTRY CLUB ACTIVITIES ROYAL GIANTS PLAY SENSATIONAL UPHILL GAME AND TIE OILERS Timely Home Run Blows By Pullen and Carr Put Philadelphiaans Back in the Running It is seldom that a contest such as Sunday's has been played upon a diamond. A demonstration of confidence and grit that compares with the memorable Dempsey-Firpo battle, when Dempsey knocked clear thru the ropes came back and knocked out the "Wild Bull" of the Pampas", such was the exhibition of the Giants. From a nine run handicap they battled up to even terms with the Shell Oilers and would have most surely won out had not the contest been called because of darkness. The final score was 10-10. ROYAL GIANTS PL UPHILL GAME A Timely Home Run Blows Philadelphia B It is seldom that a contest played upon a diamond. A demo that compares with the memorial Dempsey knocked clear thru thru out the "Wild Bull" of the Pam- the Giants. From a nine run handicap with the Shell Oilers and would not the contest been called b score was 10-10. It was in the fourth inning that the Oilers drove Rogan from the box when he lost control of the horse- hide. In that inning they scored their entire ten runs of the contest for Rogan and Mackey who fiished the in- ning. Captain George Carr of the Giants made a very clever switch, in that fourth inning. He pulled Rogan from the mound and sent him to second base. Mackey came in to pitch and Allen moved over to shortstop in Mackey's place. Mackey finished the inning with difficulty and then Carr surprised all the fans by sending Rogan to the mound again to start the fifth inning. The two thirds inning rest must have revived him for he held the Oilers scoreless until the end of the game, his teammates in the man-time driving Freddie Schupp and Cavar from the box, and driving in the tieng runs off Bell who finished for them. Lonnie Goodwin's Philadelphiaians have the stuff that makes champions. They never know when they are beaten and are never beaten until the last man is out. If they don't win another game this season the fans will sing their praises until they trek Eastward and extend them a hearty welcome upon their next winter return. The Sox Park was crowded last Sunday as it should have been and will continue to be as long as Manager Lonnie Goodwin produces teams of the caliber of the Philadelphia Royal Giants.

OMMISSION Page-Eight Downingtown Doubles Enrollment in Year (By The Associated Negro Press) Downingtown, Pa., Jan. 15—With dormitory accommodations for 55 students the Downingtown Industrial School re-opened after the Christmas holidays with an enrollment of 102 boys and girls, the larger majority of whom come from Philadelphia.

SEE TO COMBINE SORORITIES (By The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., Jan. 15—The Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority had made success in its Eighth Annual Boule just held in this city. At the first public meeting held on Monday night in the Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel of Howard University, Kelly Miller delivered the address of the evening, in which he very fittingly expressed the long-cherished hope of Alpha Kappa Alpha, i.e., to unite with all sororites and fraternities in completed, nad occupied. one big concerted campaign for race betterment. Alpha Kappa Alpha has taken the final step, for the carrying of a bid plan, in writing all sororites and fraternities to hold conventions for the year 1927 in the same city, for the purpose of pooling ideas and ideals for such constructive work The Presentation of Dr. Anna J. Cooper by the Sorority on Tuesday night brought before the public in concrete form one of the highest ideals of the organization; that of advancing individual scholarship for inspiration and service to other members of the race. The Sorority hopes through its scholarship fund to assist many and ta attain this goal. The presentation of the degree was made by a District Commissioner. The address of Dr. Alain Leroy Locke was much in keeping with the solemnity of the occasion. Dr. Locke commended the Sorority for numbering among its members a woman whose whole life is exemplary of unselfish ambition, perseverance, self-sacrifice and one worthy of emulation. The Boule closed with a banquet for the Sorors in the University Dancing Hall, at which time a loving cup was presented to Psi chapter of Philadelphia, Pa., for contributing the largest amount of money per capita to the scholarship fund, and one to Omieron chapter of Cincinnati, Ohio, for having accomplished the greatest amount work for the 1921-25. The speaker on this occasion was Miss Otelia Cromwell head of the English Department, of Junior and Senior High Schools and member of the Board of Examiners of the public schools of Washington D. C. Omega Psi Phi's Convene At Tuskegee (By The Associated Negro Press) Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Jan. 15.—The fourteenth annual conclave of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity opened here Sunday night with exercises in the institute chapel. Matthew Bullock, former Dartmouth athlete and assistant district attorney of the State of Massachusetts, delivered the principal address. After paying tribute to Booker T. Washington; he commended Dr. Moton for the "wisdom and tact" he has displayed in handling the affair of the institute and particularly in reference to his contribution of the betterment of race relations in the State. "From the time that Alonzo Pietro landed with Columbus, we have been doing our part in contributing to America's greatness," said the speaker and then presented a long list of Negroes who have achieved notable success. In further reference to the Negroes achievements, Attorney Bullock said; "And when we were set free, after more than 250 years of slavery, with apparently no visible means of support, we did not seek aid from our former masters or ask to be supported at the government's expense; but through our own industry and thrift, in the few years which have separated us from slavery, we have purchased more than 600,000 homes, we have so conserved our resources that we are operating more than 900,000 farms and cultivating more than 100,000,000 acres. we are conducting more than 50,000 business enterprises and last year we spent more than $2,000,000 for our own education aside from what we contributed through general taxation. Referring to race relations in the South, the speaker said: "Our friends in the South who have justice and fair play are beginning to speak out in no uncertain terms." This he regarded as "one of the most hopeful signs of the ultimate triumph of justice" for the Negro.
