Hear Bishop Parks, 8th And Towne Ave., Sunday TELEPHONE: VAndike 9244 Phone: VANDIKE 9244 Vol. 39 COMMENTS Bv: W. J. WHEATON Appealing for a spirit of toleration President Coolidge said that "race hatred, class feeling, religious persecution, however these may be exhibited, whether under a form of law or through force of public opinion or even in defiance of law, have no justification in reason and are disastrous in their consequences." The occasion was the laying of the corner stone of the newspaper building in Washington. The President referred to the press as "one of the corner stones of liberty," spreading the mortar over the stone he said that "under American institutions a corner which is dedicated to the press is likewise dedicated to the Republic." Fine wors, all of them; and we truthfully believe that when Calvin Coolidge utters them he speaks with sincerity, but we cannot but believe that where the leader is sincere in every utterance there are others in applause gallery who use those phrases to gather in gullible votes. The charge has been made that even congressman Dyer, of Missouri is guilty of philandering, that he is using his anti-lynching bill as a bait to dangle before the eyes of the voters in his district, but, say those same voters, "we have been dupes long enough," so they are going to try to nominate and elect a Race member to the Congress of the United States from the Dyer bailiwick. We said TRY, because of the fact that although there is a sufficient number of Race votes in the district to send a Race man to congress there is not sufficient plastic stuff in the district, but enrage Negroes who will lay aside their petty differences: not enough who will subordinate their own personal aspirations for the good of the many; to make a successful fight. Men that vote like sheep must expect to have just as much influence as sheep. The Negro vote does not bother the practical politician. WHY? Did you notice the vote on the Barbour motion to discharge the Committee on the reapportionment proposition? The California delegation is for a reapportionment. It would give the State added representation. It would cut down New England's quota and make differences in the South, So New England and the South combined to overwhelmingly defeat the motion to discharge—which was a test vote; New England because of the representation she would lose, and the South because of the ever present Negro question. Questions of vital interest will be given by the aspirants for political preference during the campaign of the primaries. We should study well the past performance of the candidates. It might be that it will be necessary to depart from the partisan rule. It will pay to eliminate some of the aspirants for a vote of confidence, and try out other. Let us, at any rate, keep on trying until we have gained the respect of aspirants for independent thinking. Something of benefit must accrue if we KEEP ON TRYING. 00— A sow weighing 640 pounds was brought into the auction ring to be sold to the highest bidder. It was in London, England.

Fools Colored Woman (By the A. N. P.) Philadelphia, Pa., April 10—Colorado housewives in the neighborhood of Haverford Avenue, West Philadelphia, are being fooled out of many hundreds of dollars by a white man, who advises them that they will make a lot of money from visitors to this city during the Sesqui-Centennial in this city this year by registering with him and the paying of Two Dollars. His scheme, be a simple one, has lured a large number of housewives to give him Two Dollars believing that they can charge as high as $10 a couple for lodgers during their stay here. Those who did not fall for his scheme have failed to notify policemen and he is reaping a harvest from those who believe what a white man says is the truth.

SHOT IN MUTINY MAY BE FATAL Baltimore, April 10.—A Negro was hot and probably fatally wounded and several others were beaten in submission by officers of the Norwegian steamer Fort Gains when seventeen Negroes, ordered deported from Baltimore, mutinied as the ship was outward bound for Jamaica, off Annapolis. The seventeen men were found in the hold of the Fort Gaines by customs officers when she arrived here Monday from Port Antonio, Jamaica. Leon R. Fouch, immigration inspector, declared them unfit to enter the country and remanded them to jail. A few hours before the vessel sailed yesterday they were taken aboard in handcuffs. Capt. Jan Ijams assigned them to various tasks for the return trip. After the vessel had proceeded about twenty-five miles down the bay the men became surly. One of the Negroes, who gave his name to the Emergency Hospital in Annapolis as Ellison Moore, approached the officer in a threatening attitude. Captain Ijams opened fire and struck Moore in the chest. Others rushed the officers, who were forced to beat three of the men into submission. The Fort Gaines was then pulled into Annapolis Harbor and the wounded man sent to the Emergency Hospital. Doctors say he will die. Southern Courts to Face Supreme Test (By the A. N. P.) Lexington, Ky., April 10.—Last Monday when the case of Charles Merchant, a young white man charged with the brutal rape of Eva Lee James, a colored girl less than twelve years of age, was called in the circuit court here in the state and indeed the whole South eyed the proceedings, for wrapped up in this prosecution is the reputation of southern courts for even-handed justice. Kentucky which carries on its statue books a law making rape punishable with death has recently sent a colored man to death under the law for the same identical crime, save in this instance a child of tender years is involved, after making a great show of preserving justice by means of calling out the militia to prevent a mote from taking the prisoner's life, and the authorities, of southern authorities to pay any attention to the crime of rape when practiced upon colored women. However, the revolting details of the attack upon the little girl and the recent "legal lynching" of the Negro involved in a similar offense have focused the spotlight on the case. Merchant is the son of a prominent contractor. It was apparent from the questioning of prospective jurors that insanity would be one of the grounds set up by the defense. Each talesman was questioned by Merchant's counsel as to his opinion regarding insanity as a defense and those who said they were prejudiced against that form of testimony were defended. Each man was asked by the state if he had conscious scruples against inflicting the death penalty and those who said they had such scruples were excused. The complainant's older sister, who was with her at the time the assault took place, claims she was detained when the attack was made upon her younger sister. A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL (By the A. N. P.) Chicago, Ill., April 10.—The Board of election commissioners for Cook County listened to a protest from Commissioner Edward H. Wright last Monday because of a suspect notice sent to Congressman Martin B. Madden, because he registered from his voting address, 3822 Michigan Ave. Ward, instead of his actual residence. This sort of dual political life has been tolerated politically for years and the board dismissed the notice and granted the Congressman the right to cast his vote in the Second. Homer G. Phillips Announces for Congress (By the A. N. P.) St. Louis, Mo., April 10.—Homer G. Phillips, widely known colored attorney, who has been prominent in political circles in his state for years has announced his candidacy for Congress to succeed L. C. Dyer in the 12th Missouri District. The Unity League is the name of the organization sponsoring Attorney Phillips for the position of national legislator, and it claims a representation among its members in most of the churches and civic and social societies in St. Louis. The 12th district is largely Negro. During the last national campaign Mr. Phillips served under the Republican National Committee in charge of work among voters in western states. Congressman Dyer, the present incumbent, is the author of the anti-lynching bill. He has made numerous addresses throughout the country under the auspices of the N. A. A. C. P., and it is probable that most of his public prominence has come from his espousal of the lynching measure. He has served the district for seven terms. Attorney Geo. P. Vaughan is also expected to file a petition In its statement explaining its support of Attorney Phillips, the Unity League sets forth: "The need of a Negro in the Congress of the United States is imperative. Here in the 12th District in our City, we have sufficient votes to elect and it is believed by us that it is our duty to bend our efforts toward this end. We have sought to find an available person to present to the people, one who, by his intelligence, experience, reputation, local and national, could be used for this high and just conclusion of necessity, many elements must be taken into consideration, important among which is a man whose personality will appeal to all classes among us. In addition to having ability, the candidate must have had contact with leaders of our people, political experience of a national character, and a wide knowledge of public questions, and a temperament that will enable him to command the respect and co-operation of others. "In our efforts to bring forward the best man possible, having only the welfare and advancement of the race in mind, we have taken counsel and advice from every available source, in our respective wards in the city, and throughout the city, our conclusion and judgment is that Homer G. Phillips is the man to be supported for Congress." "His undoubted abilities as a lawyer, his personality, experience and wide national reputation, Race loyalty and powers of leadership, we find, have commended him to his people and all classes can be united in his interest and he can win."

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, APRIL 16, 1926 RECEIVES $19,000 DAMAGE SUIT (By the A. N. P.) Meridian, Miss, April 10—Grant Jackson has bene awarded $19,000 in his suit against the New Orleans and Northeastern Railway Company for injuries received in April, 1923, when he was wounded in the local yards.

(By the A N R) Albany, Ga., April 8—If Cleve Riley, farmer near Bromwood, has found three bars of gold worth $150-000, it's going to be just "too bad." Riley is said to have reported to authorities the discovery of the metal in his field while plowing and explained that the bars were dated 1784 and marked $50,000 each. He claims to have mailed the metal to Washington to be assayed. Another story has it that Riley gave one hundred dollars to another man who had helped him find the gold to do the mailing with and pay part of the expenses of having it assayed. This man and Riley's "century" have disappeared. All Lee county is wainting to get word from Washington. WHITE RAPIST DECLARED INSANE BY KENTUCKY COURT (By the A. N. P.) Lexington, Ky., April 12—Kentucky pulled an entirely new stunt here Thursday when without precedence in the annals of jurisprudence, the trial of Charles Merchant, a white man, charged with raping an eleven year-old colored girl, was halted and a lunacy probe held which "proved the rapist to be of unsound mind" and ordered committed to the Eastern State Hospital for the Insane. The eyes of the entire stat; and perhaps of the nation were focused on this trial and it was the consensus of opinion that not only was Merchant on trial but "Kentucky Justice" was on trial. The action of the court, however, proved that there was one kind of justice for whites and another for Negroes. The interest in the trial was due largely to the recent trial and conviction of Ed. Harris, a Negro who was charged with assaulting a white woman and murdering a white man. So intense was the feeling against Harris that it was necessary to place a cordon of troops armed with machine guns, tanks, and tear gas bombs to prevent him from being lynched. With troops parading the streets and walking post around the courthouse, Harris was tried and convicted in exactly sixteen minutes and a few days later was executed. The insanity plea meant nothing. The scene at the trial of Merchant, who is the son of a wealthy contractor and builder, was entirely different. No troops were in sight. Everything was quiet and the court was permit- WELL KNOWN BOYLE HEIGHTS RESIDENTS TURN DEAL ted to make its deliberations without fear of interruption. Though the feeling was tense on account of the heinous crime that had been committed, the members of the race of which the outraged girl belongs, felt that justice would be meted out to her assailant. This belief was short-lived as in the midst of the trial the prosecuting attorney called for a lunacy inquest which was granted and four psychiatrists testified that the white rapist was of unsound mind and the Judge, R. C. Stoll, ordered Merchant to confinement in the State Sanitarium for the insane. The judge, of course, made it plain that an insane man was not subject to punishment but that Merchant would be watched closely and if his family returned he would be held accountable for the crime which he had committed. So determining the family of the man to liberate him to save his neck, that the whole family was dragged through the mire to prove that a streak of insanity ran through the family. The decision of the court was a keen disappointment to Negro citizens and the scattering of whites who desired to see justice win over prejudice. Rev. C. Williams Pres. U. N. I.

Sell Property To The WELL KNOWN BOYLE HEIGHTS Several months ago the School Board inquired of Mr. and Mrs. Archey Powell of 3148 Malabar St., what would they consider a fair price for their property. After some deliberation the Powells replied to the school representative; but he demurred and said that the price was too high asked. Then he in turn made an offer, it being so low, it was not accepted by the School Board start-up deliberation meeting. After Powells called in a number of reality brokers as to opinions on prices under debate. After deliberating over opinions and counter opinions they finally selected the opinion of Mr. Walter L.

M. C. A. building. It was indeed an imposing procession which wended its way from the Masonic hall out Central Avenue to 28th Street and a short block to the site of th new edifice. Headed by the famous Oscar Hudson Drum and Bugle Corps, playing martial airs, the Masonic hosts came on and on in countless numbers. The Drum Corps was ably supported by the local boy scouts. Then came LeBlanc's famous Boys Band, all in their new uniforms making an imposing appearance and furnishing most excellent music. Then came more Masons with banners flying to the breezes and then come Los Angeles' Community Band, living up to their reputation as the premier musical organization.

THE PHYSICAL CHANGES OF PUBERTY Last week we discussed the mighty mental and moral unheaval which goes on in the constitution of the boy or girl who is experiencing the radical changes incident to puberty. We saw that the mind in all three of its parts the will, the intellect and the emotions were markedly altered. Especially was the will uncertain and the emotions unstable. These psychical changes which require such careful guardianship and such prayerful direction are but the mental expressions of the great physical changes occurring in the internal organs of generation and in the ductless glands. WHAT REALLY HAPPENS. Sexually, mentally and physically the girl develops earlier than the boy. In her the changes of puberty are more rapid and are more marked all the way through. Indeed in all species the female's sexual life is more intense and plays a greater part in her existence than in that of the male. At the early age of 8 to 10 years in the girl the change begins, though, the transformation becomes more apparent at about 14 years. At birth a girl and a boy are much alike. With the exception of the external genitals and the pelvis even a close study will show very little difference in the two. Boys at birth universally weigh 1/4 lb. more and their heads are larger, rounder and harder. Beside these differences the sexes are generally alike in form, habits and thoughts throughout infancy and early childhood. When a girl approaches puberty, however, nature decides to make a marked difference between her and her rough boyish playmate. And she has a wonderful way of effecting this change. Hidden away in the woman's body from the time she was first conceived have been some marvelous little bodies called the ovaries. They are two little oval organs the size of almond, nestled close under the first-abriated, or open end of the fallopian tubes. They are the muscles which make a woman and which control all of the factors and functions peculiar Until puberty, the ovaries are asleep, dead asleep, never dreaming of the large role that they are to play in the life of the little body which housed them. When nature's time comes she stoops down and whispers to the ovaries: "Wake up I need you to help me in transforming this the girl's body into that of a full grown woman." The sleeping ovaries awake with a start, look around surprised that they have slept so long and worried to find that all of the other sexual organs are still sleeping. Thoroughly awakened, they begin in a systematic and almost unbelievably wonderful way, their work of arousing other members of the sexual House. Their first work is to set in operation their manufacturing plant and begin to manufacture a marvelous substance known to doctors as a "hormone" or an "internal gland secretion." This substance can actually make an old woman young and can change little girls into grown women. The varieties make up a larger amount of the product and send it out through the blood stream to every organ in the body. And each substance touched takes on new life and begins de- veloping. The falloquian tubes and the uterus, the next door neighbors of the ovaries, get larger and larger; the vagina, the passage way from the womb to the outside world, grows longer and softer; and the external genitals, at the mouth of the vagina and the breasts all rapidly develop and take the pituitary gland in the head, the thyroid gland in the neck, down to the muscles of the hip and calves of the legs, hear the message of the tiny little ovaries to awaken and develop. And to a call, they respond, each doing its very best to grow and develop as rapidly as possible to make up for the years of childhood best in sleeping. THE NEW WOMEN And before she is hardly aware of it herself, our long-legged, care-free, tom-boyish girl of yesterday is changed into a rounded out, sweetly developed, quiet young lady, with all the glorious possibilities of womanhood open before her. It is because of the suddenness of the change, the human wonder of the transformation, the absolute inability of the girl herself to know, or understand herself—that our darling need so much help now. She must have help now, or unless Providence especially intervenes, she will go the way of ten thousand of the girls of her age—the way of ignorant, innocence—and pay the awful price. This morning I have in my heart the story of these girls from wonderful families of whom is now paying the price—for each is soon to become an unwilling mother. It takes such a short while for a girl to sin and she has such a long, hard while to repent of it. Mother! let everything else in your life be a failure; but if you have a girl between 8 and 18 years—STICK BY THAT GIRL! If you do not know what to tell her—go to someone for advice who does. Find well written books and read them, study, learn and know for her. Be her best and closest friend and let her know it. I cannot tell you how to best help your daughter—each girl is different and requires individual care. But I can tell you this. Get down on your knees and ask God how to get close to your child. If you stay clo? enough, mother, your child cannot go far wrong. And with your warm arms of affection tenderly about her, and guidance, guide her you are giving to her the very best that you have and are doing all that is in your power to protect her through this dangerous period when she needs you most.

P. JONES ASKING FOR HEAVENLY ORDERS Order my steps in thy word, and let not any iniquity have dominion over me. Ps. 119:133. The word to "order" generally means to command, to tell one what to do who wishes to serve you or who must serve you. When a person allows you to order him he has put himself at your service. So you send orders to your merchant. He has for reasons of gain made himself your servant. You hire a person to work for you; he is your servant. A man buys a slave. That slave belongs to him. He has a right to await and obey the orders of his master. He even asks for orders. All servants have orders in thy word." I am thy servant, thy steward, thy slave perpetual. Give me thy orders. Order my steps. Order them in thy word." DIVINE ORDERS IMPLEADED Though we are, His, bought with a price, the blessed Savior wants us to ask for orders. Yes, but does not His word already tell us what to do? Can we not read in the Bible what God wants done and go ahead and do it? It would seem that we should. But here is the Spirit of Holiness in the heart of David asking to be ordered. There is that about the Bible that the moral nature of man is unequal to, unless he is divinely helped. He must be led, compelled, and instructed by the Holy Ghost. God must empower. "Order my step in thy word." It is a plea for divine help. DIVINE COMPULSION Order my steps in thy word means, "Take hold of me, make me know the right way and make me go it." Blessed me, one he his heart such a plea. It is he who hunger and thirst after righteousness and they are the ones who shall be filled. The soul wanting holy things ac- knowledges thus its need of them and its inability to attain them without divine help. Order my steps in thy word. TALKING TO GOD It means a lot to talk to God like that. It means faith. It means that you believe that He is; that He is the rewarder of those who diligently seek him; that He is accessible and you believe it and know it and mean to use that knowledge to your soul's advantage. "Order my steps in Thy word." That is the language who THE MAGIC OF WATER AND POWER A STORY OF THE ROMANCE OF WATER AND ELECTRICAL POWER IN THE UBBUILDING OF LOS ANGELES Editor's Note.—This is the eighth of a series of short articles revealing the vital importance of water and water power in the development and property of Los Angeles. Musicipal Power Bureau's Francisco S the distributing stations being various sections POWER AND PROSPERITY Lost Angeles today possesses the largest municipally-owned electrical generating and distributing system in the world. Keeping in mind the fact that this city's industrial and commercial development has always rested upon a foundation of water power, it is interesting to trace briefly the growth of the Municipal Bureau of Power and Light. Actual construction of the Power Bureau's electrical distributing system in Los Angeles was started on March 30, 1916. On that day the first pole for its overhead distributing lines was set at the corner of Pasadena avenue and Piedmont street, in the northeast section of the city. When Power Bureau began operations as a distributor of electric power and light in 1916 it served only a few thousand consumers. In ten years this electric utility has expanded its system until it is now serving power and light through 220,000 separate service connections. Today the Power Bureau represents assets totaling more than $50,000,000. Its gross revenues have increased in the course of ten years from less than $1,000,000 annually to more than $10,-000,000 annually. It required only a few miles of wire to extend service to the Power Bureau's consumers in 1916; in 1926, Bureau overhead lines and underground cables are used to carry energy to its consumers. In addition to its distributing lines, the Power Bureau operates 37 district and 81 industrial distributing stations in as ```markdown ``` believes in God, a personal God in whom there is help. OLD TIME RELIGION To talk like that means, too, that you are old fashioned. You want to walk the safe path that the saints of old trod, the way cast up, the highway of holiness. Isa. 35. Jer. 6:16; Isa. 62:10; Jer. 18:15. You do not care to risk your soul running after every new-fangled notion that somebody is bold enough to proclaim. You want to walk the true and tried way and you want God to hold you to the way. You beg Him therefore for orders as did the saints of old Abraham, Jacob, Moses, Joshua, David, Daniel, John the Baptist, Paul and a host of others. Like Manoah, you want to know how God would have you order your child and your affairs. You have come to know that Jesus the Christ was the word made flesh. You want to walk with Him and in Him and by Him, the safe way of salvation. You ask God to assume management in your life. When you can pray this prayer God has put in you hero stuff. Many are willing to accept the church and its social advantages and its creed and its man-worship and its denominational prejudice, that do not want their steps ordered in the word. Many will be ushers and choir members and even deacons and preachers who do not accept the word of God as the true and safe and only-safe guard of life. They now follow fashion, fads, fun and folly, scientific theories and bransteasing philosophy, when all they need is the light of God's word on their path of life. And all they would need to, to do find this out would be to give the Bible one honest trial. Try the word one. Order my steps in thy word—what ever others do, order me, I am willing. Ps. 110:3. Ah, there's the rib to be willing, "If you be willing and obedient ye shall eat the good of the Land," (Isa.1) but not without. Order my steps in thy word. I may lose friends, home, job, money, comfort, vain honor—but that's all right. I want to be right. I want to be true. Order my steps in thy word. It may cost the right eye, the right hand, cherished revenges, coveted pleasures, distinguished advantages. But these all fade away and fail. The word endureth forever. Isa.40. Let me live by it. Matt.4:4. Order my steps in thy word. I want to please Thee. Some day I want to near Thee say, "Well done," Order my steps in Thy word. I will heed, I will yield, I will follow. O God of Glory, Father of love, order me on. many sections of Los Angeles. These stations are used to receive electric energy at high voltages and, after transforming and regulating the flow of current, relay it to the surrounding homes, stores, office buildings and f. stories. While selling its service to consumers at rates that are lower than those in effect in any other competitive city, the Power Bureau has proved to be a financial success in every respect. Power bonds voted from time to time to provide for the extension of the Bureau's generating and distributing system, do not cost the taxpayers one cent for the reason that all interest and annual principal charges on these Street Dstributing Station, typical of erected by the Bureau to serve of Los Angeles bonds are paid from earnings derived by the Bureau through the sale of electric service. In this same connection, also, it should be noted that the Power Bureau is each year returning large surplus earnings after meeting all expenses and interest charges on its outstanding bonds. The total of these surplus earnings for the ten years it has been in operation amounts to $12,000,000. This money is reinvested in permanent extensions and betterments to the bureau's system and has materially helped in building up the assets of the entire system. Since the Power Bureau began operations as a distributor of cheap electric power in 1916 the industrial development of Los Angeles has been nothing short of amazing. This growth has been reflected in the enormous increase in the demand for electric energy during the past decade. Records reveal that the quantity of energy distributed by the Power Bureau has increased from 88,000,000 kilowatt hours in 1917 to 471,000,000 kilowatt hours in 1925—the latter volume being more than five times greater than the former. So far, the demand for power and light in Los Angeles during these past few years that it has completely absorbed the amount that can be generated in the Power Bureau's five large power plants along the aqueduct. It is imperative that this growing demand for cheap hydroelectric power be met by the development of additional supplies. ```markdown ``` THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE Hot and Cold Running Water, telephone and steam heat in every room.

With a fair share of this energy made available for this city, a golden future of growth and prosperity for Los Angeles will be assured.

Mr. Norman O. Houston, past commander of the Benj. J. Bowie Post, gave a most inspiring talk on "What it means to be a Legionaire."

One of the many outstanding pay affairs of the season was witnessed by 6,000 or more persons at the Shrine Auditorium, Monday evening, April 12th, given under the auspices of the Rho Si Phi Medical Sorority. The Sunnyland Orchestra which has recently returned from an extended engagement in the East, furnished the music. Everybody that didn't turn in, turned out. The hall was beautifully decorated and the color scheme varied with the rainbow lights that were thrown upon the guests as they danced from eight, until one. All I have to say about the guests is that the cream of the city was there. Miss Caroline Snowden and her high stepping, tantalizing brown-skinned baby and Charleston Sheiks of the Alabam Cafe, provided special entertainment for the evening from ten until ten-thirty. Speea, amplifiers were used to amplify the music and the various announcements, as the hall's quite large. One of the most remarkable things about the evening was that old Mother Nature gave us a beautiful moonlight or starlight evening. In fact everyone stated that they enjoyed themselves immensely. Eigery time we hear that new song entitled, "Don't Wake Me Up, Let Me Dream," it reminds us of that great, old long-whiskered snoozer, better known as Rin Van Winkle. The Sparkles column wishes to congratulate Miss Dorothy Hoskins who has a sixteenth birthday this week Ah! Sweet Sixteen. Miss Dorothy Patton, accompanied by her Mother, left Wednesday morning over the Santa Fe for an extended trip in the East. Just before Miss Patton's departure, the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. of which she is a member presented her with a beautiful pocket memorabilia entitled, 'My Trip', a token of commemoration for the junior Branch mat at the same time visited she and her mother a very Neonatic trip. We know that Miss Patton will have plenty to tell us when she returns. If she returns. Say, don't you know that the 23rd of April is not far off and the Silver Foxes are getting anxious to know what girls are going to be the lucky ones, and win those prizes for the girl having the prettiest head of long hair and the prettiest head of bobbed hair, or short hair. Come on girl. Let's see you cop 'em. Remember, that the funds received from this affair go to the N. A. A. C. P. so let's get out and show them where our heart is as the N. A. A. C. P. needs money to fight the cases and trials that are prevailing every day in every way. Can't you do your out? We will let you know in next week's colunar, just how that Oratorial Contest that was held at U. S. C. this past Friday evening. Come out. Well, I guess that's all I can think of at the present.

Spring time is here and as ever with its blushing beams of sunlight awakens in some fortunate beings ardent emotions of the affectation sort. One of them, according to near-say, who has succumbed to its pervading spirit is a young lady who expertly handles a Buick Touring at U. S. C. She is not in the Music School either. According to the reliable vocal explosions of Owen McCard, Jake Moore has recently purchased a large "Diamond Engagement Ring," which he carefully allowed several clerks of a local drug store view. Now-adays if a man grabs his hip you don't know whether he is going to shoot you or treat you. "Life," cried the judge. "Hooray!" cried the prisoner, the bus and strings forever." Recently a letter was received from Oakland stating that Misses Juanita Elkworth, Marion Carter, Dede Hudnell, Rowena Muckelroy and Mr. Thomas Southern were seen at the party given for the Deltas and company at the home of Walter Gordon, former Berkeley student in Oakland. Miss Dolly Townsley needs a young dentist's attention for a tooth kept her home last Sunday. In the way of scandal here is a little inside dope on the fortune telling in which our S. B. U. C. co-cells were the victims. 1. Honore Moxley, so broad-minded she didn't know the difference between right and wrong. 2. Florence Russell would marry a person she has known only two years. Foor fellow, he is back East. 3. Mariericle Bright is—and forever 3. Marjorie Bright is—and forever shall be—a spend thrift. 4. Marion Robinson will live to q rine old age and will die suddenly. Malcolm Patton is forever talking of Tennessee and its beautiful mountain "halls." I wonder why? A New Girl new girl came to town. They said she was too nice, too serious, narrow, hypersensitive, strait-laced, under developed, inexperienced, abnormal, cowardly, thin-skinned—In other words, she was decent. The thorn on a rose bush of a single or unmarried woman is the knowledge that she would think she is single because she had to be. The night was dark and stormy. The trees whipped by the wind, made fantastic and intangible black shadow, which struck terror to the heart of the poor girl who, bewildered, staggered along, scarce knowing which way to turn. She seemed to see dreadful things prepared to spring at her in the darkness. What was that? Behind her like a panther a man slunk along. Light would have revealed him to be dark and swarthy, with a ferocious, bushy mustache, but in the dark his appearance seemed even more formidable. His intended victim went on her way unconscious of this impending danger. He drew cloth and lifted a black bag, which he evidently meant to drop over her head as: "Look behind you!" shrieked a child in the audience. Who's the S. B. U. C. co-el wearing a fraternity pin belonging in San Francisco. The annual meeting of the stock- tie, was held last Friday evening at stockholders of the Hefflin Mfg.

HAZEL ROBINSON LOSES MOTH ER Mali Hazel Robinson was forced to lay off on account of the death of her mother, Mali Tenie Upton double but in her earlier life the latter exhibited a strong affinity to Robinson and also the Maliis of this district do the same. BIDDING COMPETITION ROCKS DISTRICT The biggest shakeup of lines in the history of The Los Angeles District is now in progress, and confusion among Porters landing a line for the summer months, resembles the New York stock exchange, or The Chicago board of train. Lines are going fast to the highest binder. The Bearers which consist of the following porters — W. M. Bumpen Brown, king of the herd; J. M. Jones; W. H. Clausel; J. W. Peerman; V. Tate; Sorsby; J. Carter; C. A. Glover; J. M. White; J. Lee and a flock of others—are planning on making a raid as soon as possible. W. M. Brown has already made a ferocious attack on W. M. Mitchell on The Padre, and devoured him completely; L. M. Davis, smelling blood has turned his eyes toward the much coveted Lark, and has already picked out his prey whom he intended to have no mercy on J. Holmes bumped poor Richardson and W. V. McCall is the next man to go in the Coast pool, no one seems to know where the other fellow is going, and many of the Bears are slinking back until things become more settled, when they will launch forth a new attack upon the successful binder. It will launch more cleanliness. It will launch more or possibly more in the line market will be a safe place to invest a name. The general war cry of the bumpers seems to be EVERY TUB. 00 R. BRADFORD WATTS LOSES WIFE. The sad news came to the Railroad Clatter of the death of Porter R. Bradford's wife. Mrs. Bradford was taken sick with smallpox, and never recovered, passing away quietly last week and leaving a large family to mourn her loss. Mr. Bradford and his wife were just like to children and lived their life happily together, inseparable. The Clatter and the Porters of this district extend their utmost sympathy to Mr. Bradford and family. — 00 — "AND THEN" IT RAINED! The bumpen Wolves" say they are going after Mr. T. W.

Sykes' line and got it—with a smile he went down to go out on his new run. BUT they took the car off—"An. then" it rained! John Moore, operating on the Lark has rpgmed with T.

Carter, a mere infant in the service, but one who had the false idea that he could not operate any car but a standard, feels that he was grossly insulted when they sent him back from San Francisco on a Tourist car —"And it rained some Mo!" E. Ollison is crying, because M. B. Brazley took his head on the Padre, "crying because he lost his line!" No, "crying because he can't get to his ranch!" —And the rain still came L. J. Greene had the pleasure of serving the Millionaire potato king's wife in a drawing room from Los Ang- les to San Francisco. BUT when he went to brush down—well then, "It rained, and rained." J. D.

ROBT. STAMP PASSES AWAY Robt. Stamp one of the old timers who formerly waited table for the Southern Pacific passed away last week. Mr. Stamp was working for the Union Pacific at the time of his death, he was well known among the railroad men. R. R. Wicker, the lone wolf, was held in S. F. for a few days with his crew on account of the heavy rain, while he enjoyed himself he was rather uneasy about the rain washing his trail away. Earl Haynes is still running up to San Francisco and taking in the nickle show and many other places of interest, his amusement bill amounted to 206 last week and he is becoming more extravagant each trip—not telling how much he might spend some day, he might spend a dollar—HE MIGHT!

The responsibilities of a lawyer, both legal and moral, arise from his relations to the court, to his professional brethren, and to his client. Q. What are the duties of lawyers to the large? A. It is their duty to counsel the ignorant, to defend the weak and oppressed, to stand forth on all occasions as to bulwark of private rights against the assaults of power, and to diffuse sound principles among the people, that they may intelligently exercise the controlling power placed in their hands. THE GOLDEN STATE LIMITED MATRIMONIAL BUG BUSY Mr. Dan Cupid, and his pet insect, the Matrimonial Bug centered his attentions toward dinner No. 10015 now operating on the Golden State limited. What few of the crew that have not been bitten by Dar Cupid's pet bug, are making a grand rush on the license bureau; this is not strange in view of the fact that those Chicago Flappers have been doing their best to vamp them, should they not settle down they might succeed, so the Bug is doing his stuff. The bug hovered about Mr. Arthur Harris for a few minutes and lit on him lightly, but bit sweeter, he was married shortly afterwards as they say this is the only cure after once being bit, beautiful ceremonies were performed followed by an enjoyable party given to his crew and friends. Mr. Rufus Johnson now on a business trip to Shreveport, La., will meet the Matrimonial Bug on his return. He says he has learned the art of not talking back by a being waiter.

George Wheeler Hinman eminent in the question, why Henry Ford is praised, Standard Oil fortunes are censured? He despite the fact that the Standard Oil disbursement of stock among its employees, the Company received no favorable comments further that just about the same time, thement of the Ford Motor Company unfolded hundred million to one hundred ten million last year. That all of this is supposed to the three stockholders, Mr. and Mrs. Ford was no general distribution, and says the why there should be if the Ford family. The writer says that the point at is unkind remarks are passed upon Mr. Ford in this enormous income to themselves, unkind comments are passed upon the S-handing out thirteen million of its profits. Then Mr. Hinman goes on to say: 'Be worth more than a billion, and if the one were hundred fifteen million he may power to be worth two billion and that it to be such a private fortune in the history. At two billion dollars that fortune is was a sovereign nation. It is worth twice as ador or Latvia to-day. It is worth as much Finland or Uragay.

George Wheeler Hinman eminent writer on finance, asks the question, why Henry Ford is praised by the public and the Standard Oil fortunes are censured? He goes on to relate that despite the fact that the Standard Oil distributed some $12,000,000.00 of stock among its employees, that from the press the Company received no favorable comment whatever. He states further that just about the same time, that the financial statement of the Ford Motor Company unfolded something like one hundred million to one hundred ten million dollars profit for last year. That all of this is supposed to be credited to the three stockholders, Mr. and Mrs. Ford and son, and that there was no general distribution, and says that there is no reason why there should be if the Ford family doesn't want it. The writer says that the point at issue is, that few, if any, unkind remarks are passed upon Mr. Ford and family for keeping this enormous income to themselves, while very severe and unkind comments are passed upon the Standard Oil which is handing out thirteen million of its profits to its employees. Then Mr. Hinman goes on to say: Mr. Ford is supposed to be worth more than a billion, and if the Ford profits last year were one hundred fifteen million he may be rated in earning power to be worth two billion and that there was never known to be such a private fortune in the history of the world. At two billion dollars that fortune is worth as much as many a sovereign nation. It is worth twice as much as Bolivia or Ecuador or Latvia to-day. It is worth as much as all Bulgaria or Finland or Uragay. It is worth as much as Greece or as Gautemala, Hattia and Honduras all together. It is worth more than Norway and almost as much as Denmark—lock stock and barrel, co-operatives, banks, ships and farms combined. These statesments he says are not made to be giggled at. They are made merely to make plain a queer business condition in this country. What is it? Plainly the condition in which the massing of a huge fortune and the retention of its profits by one enterprise are regarded as perfectly meet and proper, while the amassing of a mere fraction of that fortune and the partial distribution of the profits by another enterprise are either regarded by indifference or subjected to hostile criticism. What is the reason? The foregoing questions are far fetched and indeed presents as the writer states a most complex and preplexing analogy. However ever since we can remember, there was always a strong predjudice against great corporations. Then with Henry Ford and riches, taking into consideration the armies of workmen and and women employed, and the fact that the milk of human kindness ever flows freely, no people or representative thereof, can find anything but praise and their fondest wish and fervent prayers are —"More Power to him." ONE OF LOS ANGELES' MOST USEFUL AND BELLOVED CITIZENS PASSES AWAY Mrs. Margerita Floyd, wife of Mr. Felix Floyd, one of Los Angeles, most useful and beloved citizens passed away on Wednesday, March 31st, 1926 at 5 o'clock A. M. at the family home 3103 Folsom street. Mrs. Floyd whose maiden name was Marguerita A. Jackson was born in Boston, Massachusetts, January 10th, 1856. In 1882 she went to Houston, Texas, and taught Kindergarten in school for 3 years, connection with Trinity M. E. Church. On December 10th, 1885, she married Felix F. Floyd, Mr. and Mrs. Floyd lived in Houston, Texas, until 1906. From there they resided to Riverside where they resided for a year and a half and from there they moved to Watts, California. There they remained for two years. From Watts they moved to Los Angeles, California. To know Mrs. Floyd was but to love and respect her. All of the friends will miss her. The whole child will miss each child of Christian character as Mrs. Floyd. ```markdown ``` --- ```markdown ``` PAGE SIX PRODUCTION QUESTIONARE. Mrs. Floyd although an Episcopalian and a member of the church since she was fifteen years of age, joined Wesley Chapel in 1919 to be with her husband. She was a splendid worker in the church and was always one of the most reliable and dependable members. She was an earnest and devoted worker in the Day Nursery of Los Angeles for many years as well as a splendid worker in the Missionary Society of the Church. Mr. and Mrs. Floyd have no relatives on either side but she leaves to mourn her loss a devoted, Christian Husband, and one who was untiring, patient and ever kind to her not only during her days of health but during her many years of good children Floyd Tailor Mason, and Huch E. Mackenzie, Jr. IF YOU FAIL TO REAL THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE YOU MA Y NEVER,KNOW IT HAPPENED Comment on the 6th Annual Fashion Show of the Phys-Art-Lit-Mo Club CONTRIBUTED In the age of progress, you must either advance or go backward. The Fashion Show, in every detail showed marked advance over the past productions. Featuring period costumes throughout the present day fashions, made the affair unique and interesting. Beginning with the Period of Fairyland. The children representing faries danced the Fairy Polka with the Fairy Queen and her butterflies, instructed by Mrs. Alice Cook who has a free class, believing artistic beauty could be taught in our group. So nothing could be nicer for the showing of the children's costumes; children modeling so dainty and correctly dressed. They were invited. The "Gamble Gowns" came first, Miss Gambie, Junior, wore a present day costume and preceded the models Miss Antionette Gambie in sportwear, Mrs. Tessie Patterson in an evening gown. They were becoming and shown well by the models, "Gamble Gowns" cannot, and will not, be easily forgotten. Mme. Ruth-Hall Hunt, the modiste who must specialize in Evening Gowns, because the gown worn by Miss. Ernest Stratton was beautiful. A fairy came from Fairland to announce the coming of the Hunt Model. Also a little fairy told us of Mme. Nesbitt's Model. So wonderful and so appropriate—Mrs. Claybon in afternoon and Mrs. Ala Jackon in evening gowns, showing the correct styles for attire on the evening. The recieved arrival of Mrs. Irene Wilson Chingw is a pleasing and added attraction. The afternoon and evening gown worn by Mrs. Wilson, was a contribution to the Phys-Art-Litt-Mo Club. We were so grateful for the favor. Mine, Hudspeth had Miss Sadie Sowell to proceed her model in Spanish costume. Miss Edina Moore, the model, wore an afternoon gown. Mine, Hudspeth studies lines and color, that's why her models looked so attractive and gowns so becoming. The appearance of Miss Louis "The Lady, Barber," makes us think, her model Miss Jeanette Nesbitt was presented by Miss Louise Chisidim, in an Indian costume, presenting to us "The first American dress," with our present day fashions; so thoughtful and the hair cut and bob was so good looking, to beat her type of model. Mine Walker's Salon" was shown to advantage. A tiny little fairy trimmed in to tell the audience of Walker's model—correct head dress, marred. Well, can't you remember how the model's head looked when the spotlight was upon her—Beautiful! yes, a wonderful display in hair dressing. The Tailors are again to be commented. Their styles were so good. The Walker Model, Mr. Noah Thompson, Jr., a young type of model, who wore his suit in an easy, careless manner. Showing a well tailored suit makes one feel at ease. All praise to the Walker model. Did you say "Brothers" had a model? Yes! And nowhere could he have found a better one than our own Mrs. Bettie Hill, a model denoting Spring in her tailored suit. Spring brings to us the beautiful and when Mrs. Hill saluted forth across the auditorium, it was beauty personified. I can imagine Brothers' phone has been busy taking orders for such suits. Next, King the "Merchant Tailor" was the outstanding model for his shop. A business suit can always be considered as practical, good looking. To be successful in business, don't only be the part but look the part. Mr. King will be glad to serve you. Mr. Harold Wise, "Designer," the only designer of our group in the city. This gentleman gave to us a perfect model. A paige introduced Miss Wise who wore a sports gown. The workmanship stood out in every detail. Don't forget the "Designer, Mrs. Harold Wise. Something new—Mr. S. D. Patterson, representative of our group for Rogers Tailoring Co. The models were excellent, attired in their sport, semi-sport and afternoon wear. To get a better- understanding of models have an interview with Mr. S. D. Patterson. Miscellaneous Sport Models—Never before have we had such models. They were beautiful and the material to make such costumes had been selected of the best. Perfect sport models and the climax was reached when Miss Mary Turner, Miss Helen Turner, Miss Ione Johnson, Miss Maude Simmons, Miss Ruth Harris, Miss Marion Hennocks, Miss Anna Griffin, Miss Dorothy Patton, Mr. Walter Cook, Mr. Noah Thompson, Mr. Kenneth Levy had given to the audience their styles in Sports wear. Our Miscellaneous Afternoon models—Beautiful, practical. The dress that can answer for so many things, the dress that shows such a splendid group of models. Just the adorable type: Miss Carila Herbert, Miss Dorothy Freeman, Miss Esther Beck, Miss Alma Crenshaw, Miss Jeneve Hawkins, Mrs. Gladvs Taylor, Miss Tommy Triggs, Miss Irene Augustine, Miss Mildred Toppins, Miss Beatrice Ross, Miss Collins. ments have been made thus far, it is generally admitted that the present incumbent Sheriff Traeger will run, also Chief Kelly of Pasadena and ex-Chief of Police Geo. K. Home, this is also looked upon to be a real contest which will keep the wise ones guessing every minute of the time. They say that when the list of aspirants for judgeships are unfolded that it will not be unlike the number that "John saw." Just a little early to figure on little places like the Assembly and State Senators. The boys are all siinzg up the big "uns" just now. For U. S. Senator, Judge Robert Clarke has been strenuously putting his candidacy before the people. Congressman Lineberger has not been slothful and Senator Shortridge right on the job. Therefore we can all look forward to plenty of fireworks along this line of effort. Lucas C. Luke after quite a seige in the hospital is around shaking hands with friends and putting in a good word for his favorite candidate as well as his custom. IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION NOTES Excellent Work of West Side Im On last Monday night, the West Side Property Owners Improvement and Protective Association, held its regular monthly meeting. A more enthusiastic and energetic meeting has not been held by this association for many days. The announcement, that after reconsidering the matter, the Council had granted the request of the association's committee, for a school tunnel across Western avenue, to give our little school children, the same protection, that children in other parts of the city receive was joyfully listened to by the Association. Much credit is due to our councilman Mr. Sparks, for this victory. BETTER BUSINESS MONTH IN MAY The Progressive Federation of Improvement Associations, in connection with the Business Men's League, has chosen the month of May for the Better Business Month among our race in Los Angeles. The object of ordaining such a month, is to urge our people to try, for one month, to spend every cent spent by them, with the business men for one month, to give more excellent, prompt, and up-to-date service to their patrons. FEDERATION TO HOLD MEETING SATURDAY The Progressive Federation of Improvement Associations, holds its regular monthly meeting on next Saturday evening, April 17th at the St. Paul Baptist Church, 21st and Naomi avenue, at S.P.M. sharp.

This is another example of the superior Golden State service. The prompt attention given to the sick, accident and death claims, the employment given our men, women, boys and girls, the fact that the entire resources of this company are used for racial uplift and economic development is sufficient and indisputable evidence as to the worthiness and merit of our institution, and sufficient recommendation to all right thinking men and women of our group who are in need of insurance protection. The rapid growth and popularity of this Company can be traced directly to the real satisfying service that it renders to its large number of policy-holders. Remember, this is the ONLY Company in the WEST that offers you ALL of the THREE great benefits afforded by Life Insurance— LIFE PROTECTION -- HOME PROTECTION -- AND EMPLOYMENT Home Office, 3512 Central Avenue Semi-Evening Gown—Miss Griffin wore a becoming and practical gown as well as beautiful. A basket of lovely flowers were presented her by friends after the fashions. Miscellaneous Evening Gowns—The climax to a perfect day is an evening of enjoyment—well dressed. So remember the models who made a climax to our perfect Fashion Show—Mrs. Beulah King, Mrs. Ophelia Hawkins, Miss Sevella Polkard, Mrs. Alicia Allen, Mrs. Jeneve Robinson. Many times may happen, thank you, you give me a beautiful. Mme Nina Mallory had a Colonial Dame, Mrs. Eloise Wilson to herald the coming of her model, Mrs. Lena Wilson in evening gown. A wonderful, adorable gown for evening wear. Mrs. City designed the beautiful flowers that gave the gown a beautiful and expensive creation. Mme. Clara C. Hulbert, who was so mute to have Miss Jean Bird-song, she it was who was, to have given the minuet, but the Orchestra misplaced the music. However, the Hulbert models followed Mme. Massey, street dress; C W. C. W. Jurandine, garden trock; Mrs. M. F. James, dance trock. Hail to the Hulbert models they were beautiful, practical and we hear people were hunting the modiste to ask that they be considered as future costumers. This is what the Fashion Show wishes to bring out—efficient, business people of our group, an evening of Scotland? Yes, what beautiful so when the Orchestra began, "Here comes the bride," really was I dreaming. No! With Fairy attendants came Miss Hulbert Barnes in bridal attire, veres gown in a beautiful white satin gown with veil and shower bouquet. Now, the crowning glory for the Little Charleston Dancers. This, the best of the program was enjoyed by all and the popular applause decided the contest, $25 being divived between the three favorites—Contrelo Rowena, $12; Margory Tatum, $8; Lawrence Colly, $5. Then the Dancing until one o'clock and the 1926 Fashion Show went over big. Everything beautiful. Many thanks to all participants. In conclusion I would say to Mrs. Ella White and Mrs. Bettie Hill, we owe much credit to their untiring work to perfect this Fashion Show; also the Board of Directors and members for their support in carrying out the plans of the Promoter. And the public again, we thank you. "POLITICAL POT PIE" Hon. Joe Crail at this moment is away ahead of the hounds, in the congressional race for the 10th District.

HARDWOOD FLOOR FOR DANCING. FOR INSPECTION OR RENTALS VAndike 9244 It was a conceded fact that James B. Lowe would "get over" as Brutus Jones in the O'Neil play "The Emperor Jones" presented last week at the Pot Boiler's Theatre but no one predicted the enthusiastic reception accorded this new found star. Giving an interpretation of the "Emperor" that was original and all his own, Lowe is credited by many critics as having given a better performance than Gilpin. At the ending of each performance he was given an ovation and many came back stage to personally congratulate him. John and Ralph Ince of motion picture fame both dropped back stage. Ralph Ince attended two performances. Leatrice Joy sent her card to Lowe with the message that she would personally recommend him to Cecil B. JOHN LESTER JOE JOE GANS MA AT VI For the next week, Vernon becomes the fight center of these parts as two competent black men are a part of two of the three main events scheduled for Tuesday night, April 20. With the tilt eof colored lightweight champion of the world resting on his brow, Baby Ole Gans will attempt to make short work of Eddie McGovern who sports the title of lightweight champion of the south. These two will box at the lightweight limit of 135 pounds and the match is billed for ten rounds. Gans is very desirous that the bout should end long before the tenth round comes around. A knockout will make him a big attraction at Vernon and that means big money. The John Lester Johnson-Tony Fuente battle will be a great battle of heavyweights. Tony must win this battle if he is to remain an attraction in these parts. Johnson is no set-up his experience and body punching will bother any opponent. Large delegations of local fans will surely make the trip to Vernon because of the fact that this is Gans' home and it is his first big shot at Vernon. John Lester Johnson will draw because he beat Roper and is expected to beat Fuente, which will put him in line for Godfrey. TAGGING SECOND BY: BOB FAGAN Pitching is the particular depart- ment of baseball which is the most For The S The Commu YOUNG CONLEY BREAT The presentation of the play has not only made Lowe but it brought out a youthful actor, Onest Conley. Conley is the son of Madame Sul-Te-Wan, motion picture actress and his role of the dancing witch doctor was one of the outstanding bits of this history making revival of Emperor Jones. Although a personal triumph for James B. Lowe, he could not have achieved his success without support. This was given him in splendid shape by members of his race, namely: Nathan Curry, O. W. Phillips, Willis Coombs, Harley Farley, Irene Allen and Katherine Garrett. The impressionistic stage settings were lighted by the local electrical genius, James Brown. HINSON AND BABY IN EVENTERS ERNON difficult to analyze accurately. That is because it is such a cmplicated proposition. However, we will learn what we may from the records. Some pitchers have different ideas, some rely upon speed, and some upon curve ball. But the thing most spoken of is "control." We had about 150 fans Sunday at West Hollywood from Los Angeles to the bage. Among them was Lonnie Goodwin, the latter of the Royal Giants looking for new and young players. He said with the right care and training these boys would be outshingling features. Manager Curry of the Watts Monarchs was also out Sunday with over half of his team looking the Panthers over. There is a story often told in baseball that never grows old, one that is neither sad nor gay, but carries with it a note of conquest of glory won and honor earned. It is the tale of baseball's "Big Parade" the everlasting going and coming of plays. The veterans of the present day who have taken actual part in the turmoil of 10 or more seasons are bravely marching onward into new fields of conquest, some still breaking records, others just holding their own and still others about to relinquish their places to a younger and speedier generation. It is a noble narrative, one that is deserving of an epic poem, one that might stir the imagination and call forth the admiration of lovers of the national game for the warriors who have thus lived and persevered. The longer they stay the dearer they grow in hearts of the baseball followers, for it can be only a sincere love for the game. ervice of unity By: "JAKE" MOORE Appearing in The Pittsburg Courier of last week comes news of the formation of a strong A. A. U. Club in New York City. This new athletic club for race track and field stars has been named the Century Athletic Club and has established offices at No. 328 East 86th street, having been officially accepted into membership in the Metropolitan Association of the Amateur Athletic Union. Its founder and president, Hunter Johnson, former trainer at the University of Pittsburgh, and the man who developed R. Earl Johnson, national champion distance runner, and Olympic scorer, an dseveral other athletes. Its aim is to foster athletics among the colored youth of this section and to provide an athletic home for New Yorkers, who owing to the lack of such a club, has needed to compete unattached and to make athletic trips at their own expense. DeHart Hubbard is a noteworthy member of the club and promises to become a leading factor in metropolitan and national A. A. U. competition during the approaching season. In DeHart Hubbard the club has one of the greatest athletes in the world—holder of world's outdoor and indoor broad jump records, joint holder of sprint records and present national and Olympic champion in the broad jump. Hunter Johnson the president is right man in the right place. I don't believe there is a better or greater man in the country who could wear his boots more suitably. He has been a figure in the athletic world for years and while trainer at Pitt he devoted a great part of his time in the aspiring young Negro athlete in the smoky city. I met Hunter Johnson in the summer of 1916 prior to the Pittsburgh Press meet at Scheuley Oval. (This was an annual athletic carnival given by the leading white newspaper of Pittsburgh, Penn.) Hunter Johnson at this time had gathered, like the Negro stars in the under the name of the famed Scholastic Athletic Association to battle the Pittsburgh A. A. (white) that had walked away yearly with the honors. This Club, like the L. A. A. C., had the cream of the Keystone State athletes hailing from the University of Pitt, Penn. State, Carnegie Tech, Wash. & Jeff, Cornell and numerous smaller colleges. In the group of athletes Johnson had brought together here Howard P. Drew, joint holder of the world's recod to the one hundred yard dash "Sol" Butler from Dubuque College, Iowa national broad jump champion at that time, Irving T. Howe of Colby, spinner of inter-collegiate fame, Graham Burwell of Syracuse and his brother Jim Burwell of Pitt, who never lost a race in his intercollegiate career, Roy Morse of Salem Crescent, N. Y., national junior one hundred and two-twenty yard champion, Harry Martin of Howard University, hurder of note, Earl Johnson of Pittsburgh, distance runner, Minga Desmond of University of Chicago, joint holder of the world's record with Ted Mededith for the 40 yard run "Johnny Sheehan" of the术格 college weight man, "Sandy" Evans from the Salem Crescent A. C. who ran the 880 yard run in 1:58; Gerald Allen, Charles West and "Billy" Peteres of whom we are all locally acquainted a member of this great team. This motley group of athletes took the meet by storm receiving a huge Silver cup similar to the Hearead Trophy. It was one great crowning feature in Hunter Johnson's career and in his new role after greater achievements, let us do our hats and wish him success and all the luck in the world. LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, APRIL 16, 1926 FARLEY BUZZES PILL ACROSS PLATE AND PANTHERS WIN The Panthers rang the bell eight times at Sherman last Sunday and won easily from the West Hollywood Merchants 8 to 3.

A had a man in Ralph Horne of Cornell who could clear 6 feet 4 inches, but he could get me a six inch handicap. I cleared 5 feet 11½ inches, giving me credit for 5 feet 5½ inches, taking first place easily. High School Students! Jefferson High selected her speaker by ballot.

Seah ite sat ik Os ea FRIDAY, APRIL 16, 1926 BUSINESS TALK By: T. L. GRIFIFTH PRODUCTION- AS AN ECO NOMIC AID TO THE NEGRO BUSINESS TALK By: T. L. GRIFIFTH LET US MAKE EAST LOS ANGELES A BEAUTY SPOT The great body of Negro citizens live on the East Side in Los Angeles. However, what I am saying in this talk may as well apply to the other parts of the city in which we have our homes. I speak of the east side only for the reason that the most of us live over here. I would like to offer a motion. I move that we make East Los Angeles a beauty spot. We can do it. When we approach any part of a city, especially the residence part, we are attracted by the architecture of the homes, by the lawns, by the streets, and by every evidence of civic pride. By making our lawns beautiful, by planting shrubbery and flowers, and trees, we can make our part of the city attractive. Here is the opportunity for the landscape artist. Most of us are not landscape specialists, and it is fitting for us to give the opportunity to those who have specialized, to utilize their talent, and add to the attractiveness of our home sites. And here too, is the opportunity to develop landscape gardeners if only on a small scale. And indeed the landscape gardeners could put this proposition over if they had the proper grit and push, and took the steps essential to bring about co-operation. Not any one can bring forth a single good reason why the sections of the city in which Negroes have their homes should not be attractive. Some time ago I heard a public speaker say that all cities are judged by their schools and their cemeteries. Perhaps so, but most people are attracted to a city by other considerations. We do not give sufficient attention as a people to the graves of our loved ones. But it will follow that as soon as we begin to do better decorating of the exterior of our homes for the living we shall also do more decorating to the graves of our beloved dead. As a people we must be willing to pay taxes for public improvements. I knew once of a street in which for a distance of two blocks all the omes on bot sides of the street were owned by our people. They would not agree to have side walks or water mains or gas mains or street paving because they did not want to pay the taxes. It is ordinarily a mistake to object to public improvements in the streets or for decorative lighting because of taxes. These improvements enhance values and attract new comers, and in general make things more desirable attractive. Where they are needed, we should work to get all the necessary improvements in side-walks, paving and so on, and then be willing to pay the comparatively small increase in taxes. Let us have beautiful streets to walk on down here. Let us make our part of town so attractive that it shall be a real beauty spot, and we shall be able to feel as much pride as others feel in Wilshire. FRESNO Mrs. Louis A. Pearson and Mrs. Jesse Howard were charming hostesses on last Tuesday evening when they entertained a large group of ladies at a Miscellaneous Shower in compliment to Mrs. William M. Thompson, who before her marriage a short while ago was Miss Billie Dixon. The spacious dwelling of Mr. and Mrs. William A. Biggy, Jr. was borrowed for this gay affair, and an unusually pleasant evening was spent. Among those who enjoyed this delightful affair were Mines. Carl Molden, Sally Britton, Bowman Marshion, Braken, Gertrude Bowman, W. Wolfskill, William Hemmitt, Otlie W. Wolfskill, Joseph Hearn, M. D. Dixon, William F. Kennedy, Charles Patterson Leon de Leach of Denver, George Saunders, Willis Butler, Eugene J. Murison, Misses Melvina Byrd and Alba Dixon. Mrs. S. V. Pankey and her two love- TEN- TEN- ly daughters, Miss Mildred and Miss Glaugs Penkey passed through our city last Saturday evening en route to Allensworth to attend the wedding of Miss Alyce Hackett. Friends of the Rev. George W. Ayres will regret to learn that at this writing he is in a state of coma. Miss Helen Wolfe has returned from a short sojourn in Oakland. Ere this missive could get into the mail, comes the sad intelligence of the death of the Rev. George W. Ayres at his home on "E" street. Our city has lost a splendid citizen and a religious gentleman. The majority of the homes occupied by their owners in this country would never have been acquired had it not been for the help of some real estate broker. See S. B. W. May, 1511 S. Central Avenue. CARD OF THANKS I wish at this time to thank the many, many friends who were so very kind to me and my wife, Mrs. Margerita Floyd, during her recent illness. I also wish to think the friends at this time for the beautiful floral offerings. FELIX FLOYD. Husband. ```markdown ``` 1.

MRS. MINCIE BLACKSHER, Pres. HUmbolt 1547-J. U. S. C Delta Elected Head of Western Chapters Coming as a significant gesture in the progress of collegiate affairs on the coast is the announcement of the unanimous election of Miss Juanita Ellsworth as student head of the Western Chapters of Delta Sigma Theta National Sorority at the second annual spring conference held in Berkeley, April 1-4. Miss Ellsworth, a junior in the University of Southern California first won recognition on the campus when, as a freshman, she captured the prize for Scholarship and sent the coveted book to school alma mater, where it occupied an honored place. The next year, as an irrepressible sophomore, this young lady was instrumental in bringing to her campus a chapter of Delta Sigma Theta and for two terms guided and safe-guarded its destiny as vice-president. At the beginning of her junior year, the vivacious Juanita was the subject of another precedent as the first woman president of the all-student Belles Lettres Club. But aside from activity in organizations of her own race students, Miss Ellsworth has shown a keen interest in Y. W. and social work with women of all races and because of her frankness and fair-mindedness in confronting various campus problems as a member of the Y. W. Executive Council, she was acclaimed by Miss Clara Miller, University Y Secretary the student who had done most in the year 1925 toward establishing goodwill and friendly relations among campus groups. And so, in reviewing the college career of Juanita Ellsworth, we find a consistent, unrelenting, round of intensive service with little or no concern for empty honors. Consequently, it is safe to predict for the future of Delta Sigma Theta on the coast a progress as real as it will be ideal. Other officers elected for the ensuing year are: Talma Brooks, Seey.; Teresa-Bel Harper, assistant; Marion Carter, Financial Seey.; Mrs. Walter Gordon, Chaplain and Mrs. John Robinson. The regional conference is under the supervision of Mrs. Vivian O. Marsh, National first vice-president. By: FAY ROBINSON Phones: Office, M.E.T. 0297.
