W.C. Matthews On Coast TELEPHONE: VAndike 9244 W. Leaders Hope Drive on Crime Will Include Lynching Chicago, May 6th (By The Associated Negro Press) Negro leaders throughout the country are sanction President Coolidge's exhortation to the newly formed American Vigilantes, "to be more effort to curb crime and violence" and are hoping that the work of this organization will extend to the crime which places an indelible blot upon the United States, namely that of lynching or mob violence. The American Vigilantes or National Crime Commission, is endeavoring to enlist the aid of public opinion, federal authority, the governors of the states, and organizations of national scope, all of which negro leaders point out could be crystallized into an effective agency against lynching and other crimes. The president wished the commission god-speed in their nation-wide, emphasizing speed and urged the members to do everything possible to abolish crime. Among the other national figures who decried criminal conditions in America were Frank O. Lowden, former governor of Illinois, and son of the district attorney of New York County. The commission was formed as the result of the large number of crimes being committed in the large cities throughout the country, one of the most notable of which was the assassination of Assistant State's Attorney McSwigging, in Chicago. Nationally known men and women compose the personnel of the Vigilantes, among whom Southerners are conspious by their absence. Some of the members are in addition to Mr. Lowden and Mr. Child, Newton D. Baker, Mrs. Nichard Derby, daughter of the late Theodore Roosevelt, Charles Evans Hughes, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Charles S. Deneen. Wm. Pickens to Speak at Closing of N. A. A. C. P. Drive Sunday, May 10. The N. A. A. C. P. will close its Membership Drive, Sunday, May 10 at the A. M. E. Zion Church. The President, Dr. Hudson urges all workers to report and bring in their books. Dean Pickens will address the meeting promptly at 3:00 P. M., subject: "The Future Mothers." The prizes for the best workers will be awarded. Come early. This is the last chance to hear Mr. Pickens. Records "Heebie Jeebies" Blues Chicago May 7th, (By The Associated Negro Press) Lues Armstrong and his Hot Five have just recorded the "Heebie Jeebie" blues, an indigo number composed by Boyd Atkins, first saxaphone player of Ida Mae Melody Masters. Atkins, wrote the words and music in appreciation of the local society weekly, Heebie Jeebie Search for Prisoner Taken From Sheriff Tampa, Fla., May 7th (By The Associated Negro Press) Futile efforts are being made to locate Charlie-Davis, a prisoner who was taken from Sheriff W. D. Cobb, of Hernando Co., near Ocala, where this year's first lynching occurred, by a band of masked persons. It is believe the prisoner has been lynched. He was being held in connection with the death of a white deputy sheriff. Mr. and Mrs. Eliza Warner, 461 No. Figueroa S., entertained at dinner, Wednesday in honor of Mr. B. A. Johnson of Sacramento. Phone: VANDIKE 9244 Vol. 39 BY: W. J. WHEATON A conference of the Bahia Association was held in San Francisco the week past. Delegates from the Northwest and as far east as Washington, D. C., were in attendance spreading "the gospel of oneness" as interpreted by great Persian philosopher, Prominent among the speakers was Dr. Louis Gregory of Washington, D. C. and Mrs. Beatrice Cannady, layyer and publisher of the Portland Advocate. Dr. Gregory and Mrs. Cannady, members of the Negro race, were classed among the most able exponents of the Bahia faith. If the practical optimism of the congress is to be taken seriously, and it is a most beautiful creed, then Bahia is the leaven which will bring the world to understand the Golden Rule which after all, is the basic foundation of all religions. Mrs. Cannady is an ardent advocate of the principles of the N. A. A. C. P. She is the organizer of branches for the Pacific Northwest and has accomplished wonders in bringing about a better understanding because of a personal contact. The elimination of distrust and bitterness of feeling will be one of the means cheating greater tolerance. There is no such thing as hereditary hatreds. That has been made manifest by a study of conditions. Two children who are of different race, and who have never heard of a color complex, grow up through childhood to adult age, and unless they show diverse tastes in life are ever after congenial companions. That is unless, too, the rivers of racial inferiority, or should not be termed, color inferiority is infected through environment. Well, the Dyer- Anti-Lynching Bill has gone to defeat, and we wonder how long the negro voter will be dense enough to not see through the trick of the politicians. We even hear it as to how the race voter should support the aspirations of the present governor or because of his renuous gift of political patronage a Boot Black Stand in the Ferry Building to a political hindman of color. Just as long as the Perry Howards and the other infinitesimal political fry of California are allowed to sell you while you sleep, just so long will you be nonentities, politically. There is a vast difference between a political leader and a selfish Ward heeler. The leader is for the masses, knowing that, as he shows the ability to deliver so shall he be lifted up. Commissioner, Edward Wright of Chicago is a splendid example of the leader. We have also splendid examples of the "Heeler" who would be "Leader" in the peanut politics of some of our "Goober" politicians of California, especially San Francisco. 00— The N. A. A. C. P. drive is on for membership. Why is it that so many of the Race deny themselves membership in the Association, and yet are the first to criticise, when conditions arise to create an atmosphere of intolerance, about the impotency of the organization? Conditions are developing rapidly right, here in the city of San Francisco, which, if they are not met by a sane, common sense movement for eradication, will cause humiliation and sorrow to many. N. A. A. C. P. BABY CONTEST WE WANT MORE BABIES! There have been many Baby Contests in this city but the biggest contest of the kind in the history of the Race here will be launched Sunday afternoon, May 9th at 3 o'clock at the A. M. E. Zion Church, Pico and Palma. Thirty or more babies who have entered the Baby Contest for the benefit of the N. A. A. C. P. will be presented with their mothers and sponsors—a beautiful and inspiring aggregation. What could be more fitting than having the babies as an instrument in raising funds to fight segregation and lynching to insure better opportunities for their own future? Dear Wm. Pickens, Field Secy. of the N. A. A. C. P. will be present with his usual forceful and engaging remarks. If you haven't already entered your baby do so at once! We want more babies! Mrs. J. M. Scott who has made an innable name for putting over big things is chairman of the committee with a splendid set of co-workers, Mrs. A. C. Riordanion vice-chairman, Dr. Vada Somervilleville Secy. Mrs. Sim Johnson, Ass't. Secy; Mrs. Sadie C. Cole, Treas; Mrs. Ruth Fowler, Program; Mrs. Mamie V. White, Publicity. 1 A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, MAY 7, 1926 One of the attractive wedding events of the season was that of Miss Harriett Hester, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Hester of 1415 E. 22nd St. Los Angeles, to Mr. Jules Castron, Jr. of Los Angeles, at the St. Joseph Catholic Church at 12th and Los Angeles street, Wednesday afternoon, April 28th. The bride who was beautiful to gaze upon was dressed in white satin with georgette and rhinestones. Her wreath was of orange blossoms and pearls and the veil was hand-embroidered. The wedding bouquet was of white roses. Miss Eva Hester the bridesmaid, wore a pale pink georgette dress and carried a bouquet of pink roses. Miss Emily Johnson, also a bridesmaid, wore white voil dresses with wreaths of daisy around their head and carried baskets of. roses that were strewn along the bridal path. Little Miss Agnes Taupes also a flower girl wore yellow organdy and carried a basket of roses. The ring bearer, Master Arnett Lewis, Jr., wore a suit of black satin with a waist of white ruffles. More than 250 guests attended the reception in the evening. With the sweet melody of a stringed orchestra and the sweet fragrance of roses which were everywhere, dancing was enjoyed throughout the evening. The bride and groom will make their home for the present at 1415 E. 22nd St. with her mother, Mrs. Charles Hester. Crowd Searched At The Johnson-Lester Fight Nogales, Ariz., May 2.—As the crowd filed into the big bull ring here today for the 15-round fight between ex-heavyweight champion Jack Johnson and Pat Lester of Arizona, everybody was carefully searched for weapons as some trouble was anticipated on account of such heavy betting on both sides. The Arizonians backed their man to the limit and many thousands of dollars were lost on the contest, Jack getting the decision in fifteen rounds. In his former tactics of tying up his opponent's arms, kidding him and the crowd, but failed to show his old-time speed and aggressiveness. Johnson's new gym on 47th street in Chicago, is well equipped, seats 1800 and will be the scene of many good fights every Thursday night. THE ANGELUS A FIRE-TRAP 一 Chicago, Ill., May 3.—The awful holocaust which gutted the big seventy-story apartment house at 35th and Wabash is but another illustration of the incomplete protection afforded in the housing of race families in many instances. Here four lives were lost, two by burning and two by leaping from the windows. The only fire escape was one in the centre of the building on the 35th St. side and opened into rooms instead of hallways. The frantic occupants were caught like rats in a trap and it is a miracle the loss of life did not run into the hundreds. NO NEGRO CONTESTANTS AT ORATORICAL CONTEST IN K. C. Kansas City, Mo., April 30—Before a packed house at the great Ivanhoe Auditorium, the boy contestants in group A of the Elimination Contest in oratory on the subject of the Constitution spoke to a cheering house. Not one of them were colored as all the colored school were banned. Mr, B. A. Johnson, pioneer resident and successful business man and prominent fraternal man is a visitor in the city where the city princess attends to business business matters, he has had the pleasure of meeting with many of his acquaintances and friends. Our people in Pasadena are giving Mrs. Saddie Holt much praise for her wonderful success in the race for the Queenship during Lincoln Industrial So. Africa Fears American Negro Leadership in the Colonies New York City, May 7th (By The Asso. Negro Press Dispatches received here from Capetowp, South Africa, state that the white governing board of South Africa fears and is therefore hostile and prejudiced to American Negros coming to the colonies to exercise leadership. This condition was made clear recently when the natives asked that a "black state" be established and suggested that American Negroes could be secured to run the government, if the natives were not sufficiently developed to carry out the duty. This suggestion was met with a storm of protest from the whites, who, according to reports envy and fear any race that might out-strip of keep a space with them in economic developing. It is the desire of the natives in order to obviate the terms of the recent "color bar" legislation to have "complete segregation" with a Black State ruled and developed by black people, with out the interference of the predominant group—the English and the Dutch ville-siite so-called "black city," the most hostile will be granted the majority feel that the "suggested American Negro Leadership" will defeat the cause. The dispatches further declare that conditions under General Hertzog, the prime minister, are more deplorable than the reign of his predecessor, General Sunts. Odd Fellows Thanksgiving Day Sunday is the Annual Thanksgiving Day for the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows throughout the world. The local Lodges and Households will hold forth at the Second Baptist Church, Cor. 24th and Griffith Sts.

"Husband-Brother" Withdraws Charges Against Lover (By: The A. N. P.) Camden, N. J., April 21. Withdrawing charges he made against his wife, Margaret, 20, and Carl Bailand, a truck driver of Philadelphia, Elmer Cunningham will in the future be a husband instead of a brother to his wife. Last week, Cunningham caused the arrest of his wife and Beiland on a statutory charge. After his arrest, Beiland learned that Cunningham instead of being a brother to Mrs. Cunningham was really her husband. The husband had represented himself as the woman's brother and had adopted his courtship of Mrs. Cunningham. Wednesday, Cunningham asked Justice of the Peace O'Grady for permission to withdraw the charges. Assistant Prosecutor Varbalow consented to the withdrawal. N. A. A. C. P. IN MON STER RALLY AS BIG DRIVE CLOSES The big membership drive of the N. A. A. C. P. will close in a blaze of glory at the A. M. E. Zion Church, Pico and Paloma, Sunday afternoon, at which time it is confidently expected all past records will be shattered for membership. DEAN PICKENS WILL SPEAK Dean William Pickens will be present and will deliver the principal addresses on this occasion. No one should miss hearing him at this time. No true race man or woman or those who stand for the highest ideals of citizenship should fail to enroll as a member. The N. A. A. C.

In other words COMPLETE SEGREGATION of our race is their aim. The Improvement Associations are asking "Are we going to check the activities of this association NOW or wait as our race has done in other states until it has put "For Colored" in Los Angeles parks, rest rooms, Public schools, street cars, railway stations, etc." Let every individual with a spark of race pride in his veins be out on Thursday night.

(Editor's Note) This is the eleventh of a series of short articles revealing the vital importance of water and water power in the development and prosperity of Los Angeles. THE COLORADO AQEDUCT... When Los Angeles, in 1913, completed its Owens River Aqueduct, the people of this city confidently believed they had solved their domestic water problems. The great artificial waterway is capable of supplying the needs of 2,000,000 people. Since the Owens River Apudect began to pour its precious cargo of water into Los Angeles, however, the rapid growth of this community has amazed the entire world.

Welcome to ALL. the completion of the apueduct we find Los Angeles supporting a population of 1,150,000, and climbing toward the second million mark at the rate of 100,000 new residents a year. Los Angeles' astounding development has confronted its Municipal Water Bureau with the same problem it faced prior to the construction of the Owens River Apueduct. It is a new and large source of domestic water. Realizing that his city must begin to prepare for that day, in the very near future, when it will reach the limit of its present water supply, William Mulholland, Chief Engineer of the Municipal Water Bureau, in 1923. present Aqueduct was under construc- tion in use, reveals the size of a section of Colorado River Aqueduct will be almost larger in capacity. began to survey a route for an aquefectobrine water tothis city from the Colorado River. At the same time a large number of other cities in Southern California indicated their necessity of developing additional domestic water supplies. Mr. Mulholland's surveys and detailed studies revealed that it was feasible and practicable to build a gigantic aqueduct that will divert sufficient water from the Colorado River to supply, not only the needs of Los Angeles, but also the requirements of a score or more of other municipalities in Southern California. His studies further disclosed that the Colorado River is the only source capable of meeting Los Angeles' wates requirements. The result of these surveys and studies has been the selection of a route for the greatest domestic water supply system ever launched on the face of the earth. As now planned, the Colorado River Aqueduct will be 260 miles long—only a few miles longer than the city's present aqueduct; but in size and capacity it is to be almost four times greater than the Owens River water carrier. With a capacity of 400 second feet, the Owens River Aqueduct is capable of meting the water neds of 2,000,000 people; the Colorado River project will have a capacity of 1,500 second feet and will be able to supply 7,500,000 people with domestic water. Construction of the gigantic Colorado Rever Aqueduct already has been launched, workmen are now engaged in the excavation of a two-mile long infiltration canal paralleling the western bank of the river. This canal, starting at a pint 16 miles north of the town of Blythe, will extend northward along the bank of the river and at a distance of about 500 feet west of the western shore line. Traversing, as it does, an area of gravel and sand, the canal will serve as a natural and highly efficient filtration system. Water from the river it has 'ben demonstrated, rapidly filters into the gravel and sand its banks, and after passing through these deposits, pour into the canal completely freed of all slit and other foreign matter. Once in the infiltration canal, the water will be diverted into the main conduit of the aqueduct and started on its long journey across mountains and valleys toward the cities of Southern California. Construction of the Colorado River Aqueduct will be a herculean task; it will necessitate the investment of millions of dollars; it will require, probably, eight years to complete. And it will support 7,500,000 people and build Southern California into one of the most populous and prosperous areas in America. MOTHERS' DAY AT ST.

If You Fail To Read The CALIFORNIA EAGLE You May Never Know It Happened NNOUNCEMENT EXTRAORDINARY ORDON MAN MY ANNOUNCEMENT EXTRAORDINARY ABOUT GORDON MANOR Dean Pickens Of The N.A.A.C.P. Will Dedicate Gordon Manor FOLKS: I am now ready to deliver to you my "Announcement Extraordinary," but you must be there to hear it—Gordon Manor is the Place—Sunday, May 9th is the Time! On that day I shall formally dedicate this Sub-Division, break ground, and start laying out our roads. Monday, May 3rd, we found out officially that Gordon Manor is in a most strategic position. Three great cross country boulevards bear down upon Gordon Manor, namely—Hollywood, Palos Verdes (225 feet wide), Sepulveda Park (from San Fernando to San Pedro, and Riverside-Redondo—all of which bound or come through Gordon Manor!! Your minor boulevards are Prairie Ave. on our west which will carry you through Culver City, and Howard Ave. as our north boundary takes you to Manhattan Pier, thence along the ocean to Del Rey, Venice and Santa Monica, etc. You are also in the center of a chain of parks laid out by the Regional Planning Commission for the district. We have found out that Gordon Manor is most vital and necessary to the commission for the purpose of completing their plans and the Supervisors have officially designated that spot. Now folks, I am giving you information which is never made known by some people who perhaps would like to clean up financially. I could just as easily stop all selling and wait for my check, but no! You have been faithful. You have believed in me; and since there seems to be something to gain, I will not exclude you. The Commercial National Bank will take care of you when the time comes. I want to urge you by all means, don't get behind in your monthly payments—don't give anyone a chance to close you out by default. Pay! Pay and Pay as you have agreed!! You are simply paying it into a trust fund. I wish to say that unless you go and sign up with the Liberty Loan for transfer of name into the final Trust, you will be the losers. You will be the ones hurt—not I! When you make an agreement and expect to profit by same—then you must live up to it. Remember I am offering Gordon Manor for sale even until the very day the County sees fit to hand over the cash for the entire 213 acres! When all is said and done I want my folks to say that I had the courage to buy Gordon Manor and offer it to the public—and when I got a chance to sell out for cash—I still offered it for the benefit of those who have bought and for those who wish to buy—that all who might have had the courage shall profit accordingly. No, I shall not deceive or mislead you! Yes, it is true some have urged from a business point of view that I could stop my sales forces now and net myself more money—but, friends, I don't feel just right in so doing, my sales forces have been faithful and I want them to profit. I am sure there ought to be enough for all concerned. So come out with me on next Sunday, folks,—bring your lunches—let's make a picnic out of it—let's walk all over that ground! There will be music, entertainment and speaking by prominent persons. Come as early as you wish, bring the good old basket lunch, but the music will not start until one o'clock, and the speaking will follow about 2:30 P. M. thereafter. I want to drive the first tractor! Yes, I'll get a kick out of it!! I want to make the first furrow, after which I shall be delighted and feel that I have accomplished one grand and noble thing in bringing Gordon Manor to the point where all of you—my people—will benefit materially, but remembering at all times it was you who made it possible! And to you I take off my hat with respect for your courage—and offer thanks for confidence! Take my message to everybody—tell them to come—and last,but not least,teli them to BUY in Gordon Manor—your Sub-Division Beautiful. I.thankyou. --- --- Company, Exclusive Agents CENTRAL AVENUE WEstmore 5509 Walter L. Gordon Co., A 3617 CENTRAL AVE.

O. 1 Class of First Baptist Church, of Furlong Tract, Rev. H. T. Hines, Pastor, had their regular monthly jollification. The program was replete with excellent numbers, all of which were worthy of especial mention. The female quartette deserves much credit for their wonderful singing. The most unique feature on program was a reading contest consisting of an 280 word story from the first readers. Each participant was judged for speed and accuracy, the winner, Miss O'Neil, read the story in the remarkable short time of a fraction over two minutes, thereby winning first prize. After the program all repaired to the social hall where further festivities were enjoyed. Rev. Hines seems to have mastered the problem of holding the young folk, mixing pleasure with religious service, offering a great inducement for the young people attend his church and class. Rev. Hines is teacher of this class and very openly congratulates them for a oneness of spirit and aim. He is always on the job with them to make it pleasant. being greatly assisted and supported by the associate pastors of his church. Preceeding the program an inspirational address was made to the class by Mrs. E. O. Solomon. On Tuesday of the previous week, Mrs. Solomon organized a teacher-training class of 80. She taught the first lesson much interest was manifest. The standard keystone training course is the text, covering a period of three years. The pastor will conduct this class every Tuesday night at the church. Others are invited to attend. Up-Too-Date Sermons Bv: REV. C. P. JONES Minister Christ Temple Church THE CALL TO NEARNESS WITH GOD "Come Ye Near Unto Me."---Isa. 48:16 There is a sense in which the Christian's Life is lived in God not merely near Him. "Ye in me and I in you said the Savior." "We are dead and our lives are hid with Christ in God." Col. 3:1-5. Of the gift of the Holy Ghost the Savior said, "If ye love Me, keep My commandments and I will pray the Father and He shall give you another comfortor that He may abide with you forever."—At that day ye shall KNOW that I am in My Father and ye in Me and I in you." The Christian's life by divine fore-ordination is IN GOD, in the Holy One." Yet we read in Psalm 73:28, "But it is good for me to draw near to God, I have put my trust in the Lord God that I may declare all the works." And in Ephesians 2:12, 13, we read, "That at that time ye were with Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world; but now IN CHRIST JESUS, ye who sometimes were far off are made high by the blood of Christ." Ye see then there is a nearness in Christ. Also in James we read, "Draw nigh unto God and He will draw night unto you. Please your hands, and strive for the blood of the doublemilled." James did not bite his tongue. He flattered nobody. He hit from the shoulder. He thrust a straight thrust with the Spirit's two-eided Sword. Down to you and me comes this thrust undiminished in force, unabated in power, unchanged in meaning and application. "Draw night to God and He will draw nigh to you." "COME YE NIGH UNTO ME" 1. It is a call of Love. When Joseph made himself known to His brethren in Egypt, they abasht and crest-fallen stood away from him. So often we stand away from those who love us. But Joseph's yearning love cried, "Come near unto me, I pray you." We can feel the yearn of His heart. We can see the outstretched hand, the beat of the forgiving heart in the tender, tear-stained face of Egypt's honored ruler. "Come near unto me, I pray you. How lonesome we get for those whom we loved. And God's love gets lonesome for us.

This is the call of our Heavenly Parent who will take us up when our Father and mother have forsaken us. It is the call of our one faithful friend, A call of love. 2. It is a call to peace. We read in the book of Job: "Acquaint thyself with Him and be at peace." Sometimes our parents call us near that they may smite us, because they are angry. But God never does that. From God or when our faith fails. But God calls us near to judgment? Yes, but it is the judgment that reproves and instructs and helps. Was Jesus ever known to smite anyone who drew near to Him for help? No! He rebuked the Pharisees and smote the money changers, but they had not come nigh. They were His implacable foes, His determined rejectors. God calls us near that He may bind up our wounds! bless our lives, supply our neds, fill our empty vessels. 3. It is a call to help and protection. Those who would entice us away from God are our ores, our destroyers. So are they who would entice us from our parents and from the restraints of home, if with decent and Godly parents we be blest. "There is but one unfalling love and that is God's love. Next to that is the love of our parents for us. Our parents take no pleasure in curtailing our liberties and diminishing our enjoments. They want to protect us, help us, save us from the dangers which they fear for us that we have not sense enough toear for or our selves. So it is with God. The wrong kind of child makes it impossible for the parents to help the child. It will not allow the parent's kind of help often till too late. So the wrong kind of love keeps us away from God. But He is patient and long-suffering and often waits till our trouble drive us to Him. Yea, when God says, "Come ye nigh to me," He is calling us near that He may protect us from all dangers and fears. 4. It is a call to Happiness. O, the honor, the glory, the distinction of being called near to God. There is security, assurance and happiness to be found nowhere else. Peace that passeth understanding! Joy unspookable and full of glory. These are obtained and enjoyed by those who come near to God. "Happy is the man that hath the God of Jacob for his help. Happy is David, for Goliath shall fall before him. Happy is Elijah, for he shall be answered by fire. Happy as Daniel, for he shall find that angel locks the lions' jaws. Happy as Abednego, for the fire of persecution shall lose its violence. Happy as Solomon for Good shall make peace in his fortunes. 5. It is a call to present blessing and eternal assurance. When one draws near to God he gets a blessing, for God is full of salvation. But as long as He walks with God he has no fear of the future, none. He knows God as a friend who holds the eternal year in His hand, as an insur- Will Promote a Full Gro-th of Hair, Will also Restore the ..Strength, Vitality and the Beauty of the Hair.

OVER IN HIGH Speaking of "making it in high," the Wilshire Olympic club really did it last Saturday evening by giving a high-powered benefit dinner, out Wilshire way. It was the most successful ever given by any organization. Jimmy Norman acted as "chef" and he really knows how, ask anybody on the Southern Pacific lines and they will tell you the same. Each and every member gave him great support, some in the kitchen, some as waiters, while Robley Arreld acted as the head "fourth cook." (It was just his dish.) The club wishes to thank every patron who helped make it such a success, and at future dinners will promise bigger and better "hat rack." The true Wilshire Olympic spirit prevailed throughout the evening. The Olympians are soon to go into training for football and intend to join the proposed football league (and win first prize). Finis. The Virginia-West Virginia Club held its regular monthly meeting on Monday night, May 3rd, at the palatial Christian's Tavern, on Vernon avenue.

A letter coming from the Rev. A. Clayton Powell to the president, Mr. A. D. Lacey, was read to the Club. Rev. Powell* will be remembered as the pastor of the Abyssinia Baptist Church of New York City. He thanked the Club for having so royally entertained him during its recent visit to this city and the most of the reception as having been the most enjoyable, most enjoyable of all the affairs given in his honor while in Los Angeles. After the business of the evening was dispensed with the club entered into the installation of its officers. The president was very fortunate in securing the services of the Hon. Your Big Opportunity Do you want to make big money quicker and easier than ever before? FORO COLLEGE or a nearby FORO AGENT will teach you the FORO SYSTEM quickly at small, cost, and show you how.

VARIOUS GRASSHOPPERS PROM INENT Although the Grasshopper Club has not been before the public for sometime but its members are upholding the reputation. Mr. William Middleton, president of the club, showed his great oratorical ability by winning the first place for the National Oatural Contest, representing Jefferson High School. He was the only race and who participated. Mr. Lawrence Johnson, vice-president of the club, added honors to himself and to Los Angeles High School by winning the seventh annual Declaration Contest sponsored by the Southern California Alumni Association. Boyd Dade, the Jefferson Bullet, and Jimmie Harrison, the Lincoln Flash, have been raising havoc in the track meet recently. They are among the best in the dash events and points can always be counted when these boys step out. The city is proud of these boys who show the initiative to go forward and the Grasshopper Club is especially proud of their members who are seeking high and worthwhile honors in the eyes of the public.

A.

Upton THE LOST CITY BOYS DAY They marched proudly down Broadway, heads erect, black and white together to the tune of the high school band, the color line did not exist there, not even a particle of semblance of it, a Negro was mived in practically every organization from the police force back to the tail end of the parade, they made a splendid showing and we are proud of them, so different was this civil affair from the Raisin Day festival which was held in the parade book that anyone who witnessed both parades would be bound to take off their hats to the colored people of Los Angeles. It shows that they are wide awake, we take our hats off to the Mothers, and Fathers who encouraged their sons to take a part in Boys Day. The colored Boy Scouts had about the straightest line in the whole parade and Boys Day will go down in history in Los Angeles as an occasion not yet tainted with prejudice. THE BRONX HOTEL Why do we have we pull so far apart. Here we have the Bronx Hotel with everything heart could wish for in the way of service, not owned by our race but giving employment to many of them, strictly first class, a place where any intelligent young man would not be ashamed to take his wife or mother, a hotel where the police do not come in to all hours of the night waking you up and disturbing your rest, strictly sanitary, fire-proof, conveniently located, and in a class by itself. STILL I have heard the remark made by some railroad men, "Oh, I go to the Jap because if I haven't got the money I can pay him the next time I come in, BUT is the JAP employing any of your race in any part of his hotel?" Again they say, "Oh, the Bronx is owned by a white man well, what if it is, he is catering to your people and is giving your people employment. Wake up and use a little common sense and patronize a hotel where you can at least see some of your money come back to you. The writer of the Railroad Clatter, again asks the Railroad men to patronize the NEW BRONX HOTEL. EXCESS FARE TRAINS IN OCTOBER 60-hour service is to be inaugurated between Chicago and the coast in October. De Luxe exess fare trains will be run on all transcontinental roads operating to the Pacific Coast and an extra fare of $10.00 will be charged passengers who desire to cut five hours from the now tedious journey to the Golden Gate, this should be a boom to the railroad men operating on these trains as it will give them a better class of people to deal with and will no doubt increase the travel to and fro between the two points. SHRINE SPECIAL LEAVES IN MAY "All aboard! for the Shriners special to Philadelphia over the Santa Fe, 3 P. M., May 26th. Are you lined up to go?" Otto Johnson, J. W. Bush, H. O.

How could a policy of Life Insurance be enforced if the insured disappear and the fullest search should fail to disclose any trace of him, or to produce any evidence as to his being either alive or dead? A. If the insured has been missing for 5 years, he is presumed to be dead. A person who disappears and is unheard of for a period of 5 years by those who would be expected to hear from him, and who have searched for him, is in the absence of either evidence, presumed to be dead. Q. A will devised to each of two of the testator's sons an undivided third interest in a certain piece of realty. Would he be given evidence to by declarations of the testator, that he had meant to give to the two sons each a half interest in the land in question? A. No. It has been held by the courts that the clearest mistakes cannot be corrected by evidence of oral declarations in the case of wills. You see when mistakes of this kind are discovered in a will the testator has died, and with his death the instrument is beyond the power to change. Y. M. C. A.

ADDING MACHINE IS A REAL WONDER The readers of this newspaper will note a large display advertisement setting forth the merits of a "vest pocket size" adding machine, in this issue. This small device not only is a lightning fast and accurate adder, but it also multiplies, subtracts and divides, doing everything that adding machines costing hundreds of dollars will do. It is called the "Baby Calculator Machine" and as readers of the ad, will see, it certainly fills a long felt want and at a price within the reach of all. Tony Langston, the general distributor of the machine, states in a letter, that over 70,000 have been sold within the past year, not only to busi-ness people but to students, housewives and all who form the great class who come in contact with situations through which accurate figuring must be done. In fact, he declares that one of these Calculators should be owned by the student required to use a lead pencil. It is so accurate that there is no possibility of a mistake as far as the device is concerned. It is practically indestructible and carries a five-year guarantee against wear. The size of the Calculator alone should make it popular. It can be carried in the vest pocket or in milady's purse, is less than a third of an inch thick and weighs about four ounces. Roscoe, Conkling Simmons claims that results obtained by the use of it guarantees against errors in such a way that it will save its own price in one transaction. He says that he finds the one he carries with him at the door highly insurable. Be sure to read the advertisement—it should interest you.

ZONING A FARCE. PARK PURPOSES A JOKE. A coterie of land owners in the environs of the South Western portion of the lands just outside of the Los Angeles City limits in which the Gordon Manor sub-division is located, with their millions have watched with fear and trepidation at the onward march of members of the colored race, who essayed to provide for themselves a place to live in peace and quietude; away from the rumbling cars and the hub bub of city life where they could like other folks get a whiff of the salt water only two or three miles distant from the sea. This coterie thought at first and proclaimed that he financial genius to handle such a gigantic sub-division proposition of these valuable acres was too far fetched and there need be no fear and for a moment ceased their vigilance. When they awoke the records showed that these same sons of Ham, had laid down the cash and actually had possession of these priceless acres of land, had it suicided and sub-divided. Hurried councile were then called. The Ku Klux Klan advised violence. Wiser council told the Klux, you cannot do this thing you propose. These men who have bought and are buying here are not going to run they are going to stand their ground.

They say it was brought in a spirit of malice and hatred and that the proponents thereof have openly boasted that even though it cost millions no black faces would be permitted to own land in this section.

RUTH TEMPLE NOTE: Last night I got a long distance call from a lady who said, "Dr. Temple, we over here in——" have been reading your articles in the Eagle and we wanted to get you to come to our town and give us some lectures on the same subjects because our boys and our girls and our young men and young women NEED such instruction so greatly." And it is so everywhere; it matters not where we go men and women, professional people and laymen are all talking about the column, "Plain Facts" in the Eagle. They feel that the truths being told are meeting a real need. No one knows the greatness of this need more than does the physician. Just last night I received two calls from a heart-broken mother whose fourteen-year old daughter is a little patient of mine. It is not because our boys and our girls are bad; and it is not because our men and women are terrible to harm themselves and bring language of the Bible, "the people peril for lack of knowledge." And that is why physicians all over the world today are taking their time to give by pen and voice these great truths about our bodies which will enable us to save ourselves. Continue to address all communications to Dr. Ruth Temple, 3556 S. Western Ave, Phone, Vadike 1221. TWO OTHER LIES - QUACK DOC TORTO AND HENES DRISEASES TORS AND MEN'S DISEASES Good, honest physicians do not advertise. The quack puts his name in big letters and large, choreal adverbs and catches thousands of unwarned boys and girls, but essentially boys by such statements as these become victims of dangerous and lead to lost manhood, Sexual weakness, Debility and insanity"—this is Lie No. 3. The pamphlet from the State Board of Health of California continues. "No function of life has been of greater aid to the advertising 'Quack Doctor' than the one of night emissions. 'Lost manhood restored' is a legend ever presented to our eyes by the cheap newspaper advertisements, by circulars ad pamphlets. The quacks have played upon this natural process until the majority of boys and men have become convinced that it is unnatural and dangerous. It is not dangerous. Is it unnatural? To the contrary, emissions are a sign of vitality and health unless they are excessive. When they are of too frequent occurrence as a rule, they even early commence. Out door exposures and accumulation of the bowels, simple food and a mind occupied with interesting play or work, will soon bring about a normal condition. The pamphlet from the State Board continues: "It must be understood that semen is needed in the body to assist in maintaining its general vigor. The contrast between the docility of the gelding and the vitality of the stallion demonstrate that fact. There is present in semen, which is not naturally discharged, an element which is absorbed by the system of the male and is necessary to maintain normal vigor and health. When the body has used as much of this element as it needs to maintain vigor and strength it throws off the rest. And this should be understood to be natural and right and should cause to alarm. Let nature decide for you when you can afford to dispense with any of this vital fluid." Put out of your mind all impure thoughts, shun unclean habits and ways and put worry out of your mind. Just leave this part of your life to nature just as you allow her to digest your food or circulate your blood supply or send air to the tissue cells or take care of any other natural product you need, body and your mind clean and nature will carefully take care of the rest. "Remember that emissions, which do not occur oftener than in ten to fourteen days are normal and natural. Rich, highly sensored food lack of physical exercise, constipation, indulgence in alcoholic drinks obscene stories or vicious reading and bad habits may produce excessive emissions. By leaving off or changing these conditions a normal condition will soon be restored. If you are sincerely worried about yourself go and consult a sensible, honest and reliable physician. We are greatly blessed in Los Angeles by having one or two dozen splendid colored physicians who are doing a world of good for our men and boys along medical lines. Shun like poison the cheap quack who advertises in the daily papers, and may be one of our physicians who himself is living a clean life and get his advice and his help and forget all about the "scarehead" advertisements of the quack whose plan it is to alarm your mind and empty your purse." One more article which will give some practical help in clean living for both boys and girls, will follow and then we want mothers, prospective mothers and all women, to watch for those talks which they have been asking me for, for so long, which will be of special interest to them.

This being social night business was cut short. Mr. Battish and Mr. Jackson made a report on the "Federation of Young Men's Clubs," formerly known as "The Institution of Club Fellows," in which they stated that the constitution and by-laws were drawn up and the baseball schedule was made out and will be published soon. Watch this Federation as you will hear from them soon, also the Nobile Premiers as well as the brewing liquor) which promises to be the hottest event this season. After meeting whist was played and a delightful "Dutch Lunch" was served by the host, Mr. Pitts. The winners were: First, Mr. Noble Crouch; Second, Mr. Chas. Lee and last Mr. Samuel Johnson, who took the booby prize. --- Angry mother speaking to her son: "Confound you!!!! contour you in your Son; "That's cold, the Stork did." -00- We are quite sure that Miss Jessie Mae Nickerson can supply you with the necessary information concerning the mileage of spaghetti used when served on a plate to each individual. I snope one has to buy a ticket first. -00- Mr. Harold Wilson secretary of the Y. M. C.

Well, for the books of some of these summer transparent hats, that the girls are wearing it seems like it would not be a hard matter to look and talk through them at the same time. 00 Five Nervous are at this time being tried for the assault (?) on a white woman (grown) and again the display of martial force. To use a street phrase, that "Apple Sauce is the best sauce" or "not as the脏er Anti-velvetch Bath." 119 American Protestant Bishops, headed by Bishop Manning, New York, oppose the ratification of the Lausanne Treaty in its present form, because the Turks have been unrepentant. "They have shown no re霉素 for the atrocities committed and the deaths of thousands of Armenian Christians." We feel, says the protest in part, that failure on our part to fulfill our moral obligation to Armenia to the extent of our opportunity, would be equivalent to a condemnation of Turkish crimes and to a ratification of methods and acts which are abhorent to all who love righteousness and justice." All very nice, Mr. Bishop, but let us suppose that Mustafa Kemal should shoot back with something like this. Sectarian religion may have entered into and caused considerable feeling among the peoples of the East. It may be possible that we resent the propaganda religious views which upset the "established customs." But we have been close students for three generations of the methods practiced by your Christian Nation and have sought to eliminate, as much as possible, its dire effects upon our ideas of civilization. If we Turks have obtained we got the tide from learning of your methods of creating the blacks in your country. We see where you hang upon the least provocation. We have accounts where you have opened on the way from the times where you worship to join in the orgy of burning a Negro. If he did suffer enough you heated irons to a red heat and thrust them down the throat and into the eye balls until the brain was seamed. All of this we know of your American civilization and its Christianity. Do you wonder that we want none of it? Many more things might be enumerated, but your intolerance of anything except what YOU deem to be right is one of the blots on your boasted moral. superiority. So might have retorted Mustafa Kemal.

The Helen Hunt Jackson library was the scene of added activity last Thursday evening when a small section of its literary clientele gathered at the branch to hear Miss Gertrude Darlow, review recent outstanding books. Miss Darlow is well known in the city as she has lectured before various clubs as well as at the Main library. The audience was charmed with the reviewer as well as with the books she reviewed, and everyone expressed a desire to hear her again We were also honored with a visit from Dean Pieckens, field secretary of the N. A. A. C. P, who told us about several Negro authors, among them, Cootee Cullen and Langston Hughes, whom he knows personally. We were also pleased to hear about his own books, "Bursting Bonds" and the "American Aesop". The library would like to have at least two programs a month; one of a 'bookisk' nature and the other in the form of an entertainment. For the latter, a piano is almost a necessity as we need music to make our programs. We. of the library, wish that someone in our community who is philanthropically inclined would let us store their piano for them. We would guarantee to take excellent care of it and return it to its owner at any time. The Struttin 8 Social Club was organized at the residence of Mrs. Robert Lee, 1629 E. 52nd Street.

Hotel Coleman De Luxe Elsinore Our first visit to Elsinore the much heralded health and pleasure resort, untold to us indeed a most remarkable situation and truly convinced us of the causes for the favorable comments of this particular spot. We were much pleased at the enterprise displayed by our fellow townman, J. W. Coleman in erecting here right in the heart of the district, a most modern and up to date hostelry and has rightly named it the "Hotel Coleman Deluxe". Truly this hotel would do credit to the most metropolitan city. It has every modern convenience and service in keeping thereof, including the famous sulphur baths etc. The rates are reasonable with abundance of accommodations and it is a zenine pleasure to soak in. The genial courtesy and smiling welcome of both the only J. W. Coleman and his wife, makes you desire to call again and again. Truly the Coleman Hotel Deluxe is worth going miles for the privilege afforded. Anti "Flu" Remedy Invented by Negro Medical Chemist By: WILLIAM PICKENS (For the Associated Negro Press) Dr. William O. Foster, pharmacist, who owns the drug business located in the Mosaic Temple at Little Rock, Arkifli is the inventor of the formula for "Creeo-Tolu Compound." He evolved that first formula in 1915, and it can be used as an antiseptic and therapeutic for the menstrual and respiratory tract in the earlier influenza epidemics. But in the 1926 attack it had a thorough try-out. It consists of a scientific combination of creosote, balsam tolu, glycerine, and some other things too hard to pronounce, in a 22% solution of alcohol. The Negro medical chemist, like the Negro doctors, ought to enjoy a more unhampered opportunity for service than Negroes can have in most of the other professions: They cater to their own people largely, so that Buy Your Furniture A ZERG FUR 4211 Centray Avenue (One door from They have the finest line of sell for less.

But he left the ring a thoroughly beaten man. Some what weary from his many months of continuous boxing in California rings, Baby Joe appeared a bit listless at times in the eight rounds with Hart. Several times he located the well guarded Hart chin and had his man groggy only to lose a knockout because he didn't follow up the advantage. Hart, usually a boxer, tried slugging to win but it was seldom he got a blow thru Gans' guard. When he did Gans took the punch without a finch, which shows that he can "take them". If the result was checked by rounds we cannot find where Hart won a single one. Having won his second start in big company in fine shape the price "Baby" will take a month's layoff and will then come back to battle for more glory and the lightweight championship. TENNIS CHATTER Dr. Robert J. Williams & Brooks Pharmacy Donate Cups For Round Robin Championships Sunday, May 9th (By William Mells Watson) (228-B N. Bonnie Brae St., DR-9019) Dr. Robert L.

Pharmacy, 18th and Central made Alpha's round robin championship tournament committee, Bill Dunn and Eddie Harris, happy last week by offering to donate topography and men's singles championship tournament Sunday, May 9th, at 38th and Ascot avenue. The famous tooth extractor feeling soft toward the sweeter sex, will foot the bill for whatever the committee selects for the little darlings. Clarence Ahart Brooks of Brooks Brothers, being married as well as gunshy, offered to deal in men only, and will pay for the ruffians' cup. Championships Attractive This with other features makes the Mothers' Day outing a bargain day success. The advantage and glory of winning a round robin tourney is there can be no argument as to who is which at the close as the winner of the most games after having met every other player is crowned champion of the region. The report that Crown City plans to cop the glue was shot full of holes last week when several locals stuck out their chests and stated that "they shall not pass." However many Angelos would feel much safer if the "seven cup champions" should happen to miss the boat or something until after the draw. Play Starts 9:00 A. M. Official referee Philip Le Bron-Davis will start the show at nine sharp, so be at your guns on time. The draw which takes place ten minutes of nine will be over while you are hanging up your coat, so don't tarry around. Entry Tye has been eliminated, but every player must deposit one new tennis ball with the reff or its too bad. Committeemen Dunn and Harris will be prepared to feed the prespiring players plenty sandwiches and cold punch provided you eat breakfast before arrival. OSCAR HUDSON'S FAR FAMED DRUM CORPS PRIZE WINNER IN GREAT AND SPECTACULAR PAGEANT OPENING BOYS' WEEK CONCLAVE IN SAN FRANCISCO ```markdown ``` BV: TED Miss Florence Mills, famous colored actress and featured star of Lew Leslie's "Black Birds of 1926" will close her engagement at the Alhambra Theatre after the Sunday evening performance on May the 2nd. The company was to have closed the week previous to this date but Miss Mills asked Mr. Leslie to continue another week so that her many friends who were unable to get in because of the lack of seating capacity, could do so. The entire company will sail for Europe Saturday, May 16th and will open in Paris at the Ambassador Theatre two weeks later. It is said that the sum being paid for this, the greatest of all colored revues, is the largest any Parisian manager ever guaranteed. After the engagement in on condition that a like, amount be OSCAR HUDSON'S FARM LAR PAGE France, which is expected to extend over a period of months, the company will appear in London and in many other of the principal cities of Europe. One of the best illustrations of the possibilities of Negro brains is furnished in the exposure and arrest of William J. Bell, race-man of 229 Edgecombe Ave., on a charge of grand larceny. It is charged that he fiecured wealthy white citizens out of sums totaling $5,000,000 or more for the purpose of erecting colored hospitals, styling himself as the directing head of "The-Affiliated United Colored Hospitals," he opened a drive raise a million dollar fund for the proposed erection of four new hospitals for colored people. According to a confession he made to assistant district attorney Lehman, Bell obtained a promise from Arthur C. James, millionaire, for a $500,000 contribution as a memorial to the latter's mother and INN for First Class Service raised before the contribution was paid. A remarkable feature of Bell's scheme was the fact that he only picked the ultra rich as his victims. He obtained their names he said from newspaper stories and the arrivals or sailings of prominent persons, on ocean liners. He matched his brains against some of the best to be found in this country and got away with it until he made the fatal mistake of accepting a small contribution of $25.00 from a newspaper woman who became suspicious and had him investigated causing his arrest and conviction. How different would have been the story had he used his fiery genius along other lines. There are scores of colored churches to be found throughout Harlem some of which hold forth in regal splendor rivaling in beauty the magnificence of the famous structures to be found along lower fifth avenue. These churches represent an expenditure of thousands of dollars. Twenty years ago they were struggling for existence in small cramped quarters amid sordid conditions. Today they are well cared for with privacy and dignity. The old fashioned soul-stirring hallejah type of emotional preachers are gone. Today most of these pastors are scholars who are graduates of leading universities. Knowledge, cul- R FAMED DRUM CORPS ANT OPENING BOYS' WEEK ture and refinement are their guiding virtues. The most human part of the service is the singing by the choir, which despite the dignity assumed by the director cannot conceal the human pathos, and heart rendering vibrations in their songs. Their singing is far more likely to bring tears to your eyes than anything that the preacher may say. The modern preacher is laying more stress upon how best to fit yourself for a useful life here on earth rather than telling you how to get to heaven, which after all, is the most intelligent thing to do, don't you think? Harlem's favorite indoor sport is "Playing the Numbers," a gambling lottery indulged in by at least two-thirds of the residents of Harlem.

The syndicate is controlled by men higher up whose real identity is unknown to any except those in the employ and confidence of the syndicate. It is operated upon the same basis as horse racing, and like all other forms of gambling, "you can't beat the game." You may win once in a while, but the syndicate wins all the while.

This feat is indeed a high compliment not only to attorney Oscar Hudson's leadership but to the boys and their parents who have encouraged them on. Who could help from feeling proud of them, when in this might conclave of thousands upon thousands in the north's most colorful undertaking for the men of tomorrow's these black boys came forward and earned recognition and gained 95 points for the second prize. Who will therefore gainsay that Oscar Hudson and his faithful Boys' Drum Corps are not, playing their part in this might march of progress. CALIFORNIA EAGLE AUTOMOTIVE SECTION Page----Eight W. M. SHI CHM. OF BUILDING EUREKA TRIALS OF THE TRAFFIC COURT By: Judge Louis P.

It was a burden of grief we felt when we lost him almost five years ago. Once when I was in New York City he wrote me and asked me to inquire in the New York music stores for selections by Negro composers. Nineteenth of the people to whom I applied for information sent me to the jazz houses. To my surprise I found a large number of stores handling Negro jazz music; and to put differently I found there was a large number of our people who were writing jazz, vocal and instrumental selections. To our credit be it said that after much searching I found 'one house which handled' the work of Harry T. Burleigh, and made a specialty of it; and of course I found the works of Coleridge Taylor. Our son did not care for jazz and would not play it. He studied the work of the masters. The jazz writer or the jazz player moves along the line of least resistance. It does not require a musician to compose or play jazz. But it takes years of hard study to become a musician. Paderewski said, "If I fail to practice one day I notice it; if I fail for two days, my wife notices it; if I fail for three days, everybody notices it." This jazz spirit is our updoing. It represents intellectual laziness. One possessed with it, it is not satisfied to go on and strive toward the ends which were attained by Bach and Handel, Mendelsson and Beethoven, but after learning a little more than the rudiments, plunges into public singing, performing and jazz writing. The fact is the jazz folks are very much in evidence, but they are not a large racial asset. The race needs thinkers. And thinkers are developed by hard study. And this is just as true in the business world as it can be anywhere else. There is the greatest field in business for the prepared mind of the Negro race than he can attain to. Of course when a man starts in business he needs capital. But that is by no means all he needs. He needs to know something of buying, of salesmanship, of advertising, of handling folks, of keeping accounts—in short all there is to know of the business. I knew the owner of a packing house. His son wanted to follow his father's footsteps in the packing house business. The father sent him down to work among those who butchered the hogs. From there he had him work in all departments until he came to the study of management. In that way the son learned the business from a to z. The trouble is not that Negroes will not patronize our business houses. The trouble is, there is too much jazz in management.

PORO SUB STATION TAKES FIRST PRIZE FOR EFFICIENCY AND BEAUTY Fifty-four beautiful occidental girls representing every beauty parlor in the west tried for highest honors on Friday evening, April 23rd; but first prize, a beautiful loving cup and a diamond ring, was awarded to Miss Geneine Clay, a Poro contestant. The Poro Sub-Station is located at 2221 Hooper Avenue, and is in charge of Mrs. Sylvia Booker Turnbo, agent direct from the great Poro College in St. Louis, who has continuously maintained the highest standard of beauty culture. The Poro Sus-station is located in the busiest section of Hooper Avenue, and the business folk of that district are extremely proud of the victory. Happiest of all, perhaps, is Miss Marcia L. Pruit, the expert marcellist who gave the hair-dress. Miss Pruitt finished beauty culture in the Jefferson High School of Los Angeles, and holds a certificate from the Poro College in St. Louis. Miss Pruitt's watchword is "Proficiency". And though she is on eof the youngest beauty cuteurists, she has but few superiors, if any. Little Miss Clay, the recipient of the prize, is a very petite and modest Angelo, and is a student at the University of California. She is still possessed of long tresses. The contest was held by the Silver Fox Club, an organization of the finest in young manhood that Los Angeles has produced. The judges were expert critics, skilled in the judgment of details in beauty culture. The chief judge, Mrs. Scott, is an expert in this line, from the largest beauty culture establishment in the west, catering only to milady of wealth, culture and refinement. The cup and ring are now on display at the Poro Sub-Station, 2221 Hooper Avenue, where throngs of delighted westerners are gathering daily to behold them. Word was immediately flashed over wire to Mrs. Annie M. Malone of St. Louis, head of Poro College, and one of the finest executives in America. Mrs. Malone immediately sent congratulations to Mrs. Turnbo and Miss Pruitt. S. B. W. MAY AND A FEW FRIENDS VISITED THE COLEMAN De LUXE HOTEL AT ELSINORE S. B. W.

Women sheathed in silks with glamming white arms and jewels, that would easily serve to ransom a king, sit and smokeendless cigarettes. Men in dinner coats who have travelled Broadway from end to end as well as the underworld of Paris come here seeking something "different." What do they find? Half naked forms come out upon the dance floor in two snake like files and mingling together in a complicated maze, their bodies sway and writhe to the throbbing of the music, the whole room pulsates of the jazz, the wailing of saxophones; the bleating of banjos, the blaring of trombones. This, in short, is the sight that draws these crowds from the best ball rooms in the country to witness this savage onslaught upon civilization.
