WHAT THE HELL!
Folks, white folks, neighborly white folks, white folks that have no objection, at least visible, to colored neighbors, white folks who so declare themselves, had their nerves rudely shocked when on their arrival with bathing suit in hand at the newly installed swimming tank on least 22nd, supposedly for the public, intent upon taking a plunge in the cool water there recently, they were politely informed by a white attendant in charge that the tank was for colored folks only and in so many words indicated his sorrow by stating that they would have to cool their heels and body in their bath tubs at home or at any one of the numerous pools located inconveniently miles from the pool of their choice closest to their home.
NOW THEN!
Now then, what their decent-thinking black Brother, he who through the legal department of the N. A. A. C. P. has been battling for the last year or so in the courts of the land against the monster prejudice in the newspapers of the country both black and white, he who has raised thousands of dollars here in our own Angel City to protect his constitutional rights (as regards the use of public swimming pools and other forms of diversion) against powerful organized agencies bent on keeping him "in his place," whatever that may be, wants to know is, who authorized the caretaker of said premises to so inform these white people and what was his or their motive.
Surely after several years of struggling for certain rights when the battle for justice seemed eminent, it can't be possible that the splendid organization, the N. A. A. C. P., which has led our group to victory on numerout occasions, raising thousands upon thousands of dollars for combatting for right surely it has not welted and instance and agreed to compromise-victory and accept a jim-crowed swimming pool, built and rushed to completion during a hotly contested court suit instituted to secure and protect our rights to use swimming pools anywhere at any time. We are not championing the white man's cruse, he is fully capable as results show of championing his own cause. We are not crazy about swimming with white folks, still, like many of them, we enter no objection. But
1.
we should, and do, strenuously object as we always have to be jim-crowed, object to drawing any line when it amounts, to racial discrimination. If the pool on 22nd street has been installed there for the exclusive use of colored folks without consulting them, someone has blundered. The idea of Negroes through a white caretaker being forced into the position of drawing the color line on a neighborhood with a white poplace, forces them in an unnatural defensive position.
Sheriff W. L. Traeger Receiving Strong Support for Re-election
In the various meetings throughout the county and at every gathering the popularity of Sheriff W. L. Trager is manifested to the highest degree, to such an extent that his friends confidently expect that he will repeat the turn of events which elected him in the promaries four years ago.
At the big Bert Meeting held in Watts on last Tuesday evening his mokesmen received the most flattering reception when they espoused the chuse of the Sheriff. Mr. J. C. Cradick, manager of the Trager forces made a forceful presentation of his cause and received a most flattering reception.
The voters from all over the county are constantly reporting to headquarters and volunteering their services. With the Hon. Bert Farmer directing genius on the outside all up and down the firing lie and Mr. J. Cradick the inside manager at headquarters marshalling the Trever forces for victory, truly the greatest Sheriff is on his way to hold down the big chair in the greatest county West of Chicago for another term.
BOYCOTT
The thing advocated and the thing to do, if such methods are being used, is to hover the pool until justice is done and the Negro ceases to be made the goat of seeing himself artificially drawing the color line through the mouthpiece of a white caretaker.
A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL
'Inferiority Complexes'
Do many colored people, because of a consciousness of prejudice of others, show an inferiority feeling in the presence of such others? The following paragraph in a letter from a white woman of Seattle Washington, who is at the head of the "International House" near the campus of the University of Washington, addressed to Williams Piskens, of New York, is significant: "It seems to me that the attitude you recommend—courteous, militantty looking for, and demanding fair play for all races is just what all the non-"white" races should cultivate; but unfortunately, you see, they don't. You are really the only Negro I ever met who seemed to feel that"he was any man's equal and to act that way." (Mrs.) JANE GARRUTT.
Reception Tendered Dr. and Mrs. Davage
Reception Tendered Dr. and Mrs. Davage
Elegance itself predominated in the magnificent home of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Duncan, 1308 W. 35th St., Monday evening, July 26th, when she, with Mrs. Alberta Huntley Nailey and Mrs. Mary Blakeley as co-hostesses, presented Dr. and Mrs. Mathew S. Davage, Pres. of Clark's University, Atlanta, Ga. and Prof. J. P. Brawley (a member of the faculty and the very distinguished son of Mrs. Duncan) in a host elaborate reception to a host of their friends from eight to eleven P. M.
The Duncan's home with its already elaborate furnishings, was never more beautiful than on this very lovely occasion, where gorgeous specimen flowers were used in abundance. It was a vision of loveliness itself and most especially to know that they were gift flowers from very dear friends of the hostesses.
On nearing the Duncan's home one always enjoys a breath of welcome and hospitality that is very keenly felt and which always makes one feel so entirely at home; and on this auspicious occasion, hospitality simply excelled itself. On entering the door, Miss Josephine Willis, in a simple, girlish frock of white crepe, received the cards, whilst on the left the guests were welcomed by Mrs. J. H. Sykes, who wore a very dignified gown of grey georgette and Miss Hattie Davage in a fetching model of rose georgette, aunt and sister of the distinguished guest, who in turn presented them to Mrs. Nailey. Mrs. Nailey was very charming in a beautiful white canton crepe and stood at the head of the receiving line, and she in a most gracious manner presented them to the honor guest of the evening. Mrs. Davage was most strikingly beautiful in a white canton crepe. They were then ushered into the dining room by Mrs. Ida Berrum and M. G. Willis, where they were served dainty pink and white ice, with delicious home-made cake. Mrs. Jenkins, always charming and wearing a beautiful creation of white and gold, presided at the head of the table, with Mrs. McCutcheon wearing a beautiful gown of pink taffette at the foot. These ladies were ably assisted in these courtesies by Mrs. Wicks, Berry Conway, Fofton, Davis, Miss Williams and Mr. and Mrs. Dent and Mr. Amos Smith.
There were several beautiful vocal numbers given during the evening, over which Mrs. Ina Harris presided with Miss Teressa Harris accompanying.
Mrs. Duncan and Blakeley were very attentive and anxious to know that each and every one had a most enjoyable time during the entire evening. More than five hundred elegantly gowned ladies, and gentlemen, at the invitations of these lovely hostesses, paid honor to their very distinguished guests, who in turn were happy to feel themselves so, highly honored by Los Angeles' most elite society.
Sharing honors with these very distinguished guests were Mrs. Irvin of Chiego, Ill; Mrs. W. D. Wilson of Oakland, Calif., wife of Oakland's most prominent physician and Mrs. Ferguson of Atlanta, Ga., also a teacher in Clark's University. Miss Marie Barnum assisted by a bevy of young girls presided beautifully at the punch bowl during the entire evening.
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, JULY 30, 1926
RUSSIA AND THE NEGRO
RUSSIA AND THE NEGRO
BY: WILLIAM PICKENS
In New York newspapers we have just read the following headline: Reals Trying To Convert Negroes to Communism." And under that headline the following story, we give it complete:
"Russian communists are seeking to organize communist groups among American Negroes, according to Scotland Yard, which has been investigating the activities of communists here (In London). The Soviet strategy is alleged to be to induce Negroes playing in local dance halls and night clubs to accept large sums of money to appear in Moscow, where they would be converted to communism and then sent to the United States to spread the doctrine."
Whether the positive statement in that headline is true or not, we do not care; but we do know that the story supporting the headline is too weak to justify the headline. But this is the usual American newspaper method of lying; to get hold of a little story, which, as is evident in this case may be only a mixture or irrelevant details and embellished guesses, and THEN to write some big headline which is not even justified by those details and guesses. What more, for example, has the hiring of Negro vaudeville actors to come to Moscow with convicting Negroes to communism, than the hiring of Negro actors from New York to come to London, and put on shows to do with converting American Negroes to monarchism.
And, mind you, we are not saying nor implying that Russian communists would be doing anything foolish or criminal if they were seeking to convert Negroes to communism by letting them SEE what it is and how it works. That would be just about the most sensible and the fairest way we would ever think of for converting anybody to anything. If an experience with communists and communism converts anybody to that system of society, they ought to be converted to it. Seeing Russia will doubtless get American. Negroes or anybody else much nearer to the truth abut that country than reading American newspapers abut Russia. We will bet anybody down to the last dollar we possess that if Mississippi wanted to convert Negroes from any other part of the world to a belief in Mississippi methods, Mississippi Democrats would never attempt to do it by inducing colored people to "come and see" how the think works in Mississippi. This willingness to be seen, and seen intimately, is at least one point in Russia's favor.
Now, if Russia, is only bad as bad as American newspapers have pictured it, the best way in the world to turn any man against it, to let him see it for himself. Frankly, it seems t us that Mississippi and New York newspapers are arrauded that, if American Negroes see Moscow, they may conclude that it is a darn sight better civilization than what they seein Vicksburg and Yankers.
I tell you, there is something inconsistent between this American report about Russia and this American fear or letting Americans see Russia. They are certainly not afraid that American Negroes will hate what they see in Russia, or what they will conclude that Mississippi is a better place to live in than "awful" Russia. If a visit to Moscow were expected to make Negroes more willing to be oppressed in Mississippi, then Mississippi would send annually a state delegation of Negroes to Moscow to come back and report.
Well, what ARE they afraid of? Draw your own conclusions, Sambo.
Big Local Program
N. A. A. C. F. has big local program and wishes to call attention of the public to the fact that its attorneys will defend Mrs. Long in September. The West Side property owners that are being sued for the possession of their property are also being protected by N. A. A. C. P. aided by Federated Improvement Association. In the swimming pool case the N. A. A. C. P. urges all to resist every form of segregation. We must unite all forces to curb the efforts to make of us a race needing special attentions or better Stand by N. A. A. C. P. both morals and finance and we will win.
W. L. Stevens, Lieutenant of Detectives, veteran police officer, after over twenty-one years of active, loyal and faithful service is to retire to private life, August 1st, 1926, with all the splendor and honor befitting his achievements accomplished in so many years.
A seion of the best stock of Texas, Stevens sought his fortune in the state of California in 1903 as sewer and cement contractor and two years later, through a competitive examination was appointed to the Los Angeles
LIEUT. W. L. STEVENS
Police Department in the capacity of Patrolman, under W. A.7 Hammel, Chief of Police. He has since that time served under eighteen police chiefs which is a fitting tribute to his clean record. Very little of his score of years has been spent in police uniform as he received an early recognition of his natural ability as a police officer by being given work in plain clothes. Old timers well remember the team of Glenn and Stevens. October 16th, 1912; Stevens after another competitive examination was appointed Detective Sergeant, a distinctive honor, the first of our group in the state of California to be elevated to such a position. Later he was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant of Detectives, from which rank he now retires. Stevens has the reputation of being reticent and retiring and when asked for an interview, stated, "I have no immediate plans. First of all I am going to take a much needed rest. I know I have done my best. My superior officers and comrades have my best wishes. That's all." Pages from the record of Stevens would read like highly colored fiction. A search of his personal nature will reveal the fact that no amount of coaxing will induce him to talk of his accomplishments.
His most spectacular arrest was that of James Brown. Brown had murdered his sweetheart, Maggie Norton by firing six shots into her body. Brown, then well-armed, barricaded himself in a rooming house on Eighth street, defying arrest. Stevens arrested him single-handed and for his bravery was commended by the daily papers and his superior officers. Another arrest, fully as spectacular, was that of Thomas Meeks, a band-TWO—who held up Stud Davis, at the point of an automatic, in the Cadillac Pool Room and then took refuge underneath a house near Sixth and Kohler Sts. Stevens, alone, went under the house and when he came out it was his man hand-cuffed.
Among other important arrests are Burr Harris, for the murder of Mrs. Gay in a Spring street office building; John Pryor, for the murder of C. P. Williams a police officer; Milton Taylor, for the murder of his wife, Lucile Taylor; Murphy Williams, for the murder of Coleman Stone, an aged grocer of Bell Station.
Property, amounting to thousands of dollars have been recovered through his untiring efforts and the thieves sent to states prison. Good people admire Stevens and criminals fear and respect him.
His knowledge of the work is best proven by his high mark in the examination for Assistant Captain of Detectives. He describes much credit for this.
It is common knowledge that Lt. Stevens thinks quickly, acts wisely and is ever alert and it may be safety said that he possesses every attribute that goes to make the successful decision.

CALIFORNIA FEDERATION OF COLORED WO MEN'S CLUBS MAKE PREPARATIONS FOR LARGE GATHERING AT OAKLAND, CAL.
Los Angeles, Calif., July 27. (A. N. P.)—Great at all times the heat in the desert near here has been unprecedented this summer. Twelve movie actors with Kathleen Collins and Ken Maynard of the Charles Rogers Productions have been lost for a week in the Funeral Range of Death Valley. They went out on location for a one-day's filming taking only enough food and water to use in the picture of a meal in the desert, not returning, a searching party headed by Deputy Sheriff Remick sought them in vain, in so great heat that the thermometer burst at 38 degrees. A few days ago the dead body of Keith Peters, wealthy Long Beach broker was found sitting in his car on the Mojave Desert where he had succumbed to the heat and had been missing over two months.

Otis Brown, age 25 of 1211 East 14th. St. was painfully injured at the big fire which for a time threatened to destroy the east side of town on last Wednesday. The fire reached such porphions that fully 28 companies were on the scene and had to put up a masterful fight before the flames were subdued. Mr. Brown is attached to Engine Company No. 30 14th. and Central Avenue.
TRAGIC DEATH OF MRS. ADAMS AND CHILD IN AUTO ACCI-DENT
The tragic death f Mrs. Mary Adams and her baby who were killed in an auto accident near Pasa Robles on last Sunday morning was a severe shock to the people of this city. Mrs. Adams and child accompanied by her husband and four other persons were in the machine when it swerved with her husband driving and went over an embankment. The machine skidled on the wet pavement at a sharp turn n the road. The other occupants of the car were; Mrs. Harris Mrs Maybelle Adams, Mr. and Mrs. Scott, who were thrown clear of the car. Both Mrs. Adams and her baby passed away shortly after reaching the hospital at Pasa Robles. Mr. Scott was badly hurt and had several stitches taken in his head, his wife received an ugly cut on her head also. Mrs. Harris mother of Mr. A. Adams, sustained: a painfully crushed foot and the flesh was torn from her body. The physicians say that all will recover. Mr. Alonza Adams is prostrated with grief over the tragic happening. There is genuine and sneeze sympathy expressed by all who know Mr. Adams and his kindred in this their sad hour of sorrow.
To be a protest against the moving of Negro families into the neighborhood:

Former Roadhouse
Waitress Shoots
Her White Lover
Rockford, Til., July 23. (A. N. P.)
A Protracted love quarrel is felt to
have been responsible for a violent
battle in which Mrs. May Tucker, 25
killed her white lover, Henry Bess.
Bess, who had been shot, was found
dead in an automobile in front of
Mrs. Tucker's home. She has been
placed in jail and will probably be arraigned on a murder charge.
State's Attorney W. D. Knight said Mrs. Tucker confessed she killed the white man. According to local authorities, a romance between the slain sweetheart and Mrs. Tucker began, three years ago in a roadhouse near Peoria, where Mrs. Tucker was employed at the time. Bess is a member of a wealthy and prominent, family of Peoria, and is believed to have left a wife and child there. He worked for a dairy company here boarded with the woman who killed him.
KILLS WHITE BOY IN SELF DEFENSE
Clarksdale, Miss., July 26. (A. N. P.)—A quarrel which began when a young white man named Wilson brushed against Fred Thomas, sitting on the curb, ended two nights later when Thomas fatally stabbed Durward Wallace, 18, a friend of Wilson. Ever since he had resented being kicked from behind, the white boys had been after Thomas, but were afraid to attack him until they found him alone. There were four in the group which set upon him when he drew his knife and killed Wallace and stabbed one of the others. Thomas is being closely guarded in the county hall.

| ‘The couple had been married seven
years during that time they had had
five children The husband began to
drink heavily from the night of the
wedding. .He had been an intelligent
man and came from a wealthy and
refined family, Alcohol had made a
brute of the man. Two deformed chil-
dyen were born to them,’ He hated
his evil habit and his father-heart
‘helpéd him to summon the remaining
manhood which alcohol had not burn-
ed out and for two years he reformed,
not one drop of alcohol passed. his

He drank more heavily than ever.

‘drank still more heavily. His wife
was pregnant again—the 5th time

became a brute; he beat her, he struck
her beavily in the stomach with his
large, bony fist—while she was the
mother of his unborn child.
You say, “What a brute! What a
beast!” Yes, he was that and more.

ALCOHOL AND - FATHERHHOOD
‘One ‘tight, on the City Maternity
Servide of the Los Angeles Health
Department, I was called on a eon-
finement case to the homé-of a very
poor white family living in the South
Bastern part of our city. I took two
students—young’ doctors—with me
and arrived at the home just in time
to get things prepared before the
mother was ready to be delivered. 1
examined the mother ‘carefully, as I
make a practice of doing with my con-
finement cases. 1 found/that she was
rather delicate but present no strik-
ing abnormalities. I next listend to
the baby’s heart, it seemed alright ex-
‘cept that it appeared” weak. Having
the mother ail wrepared and having
examined her and her unborn baby
carefully I sat down by the bed to ob-
serve —while nature completed the
part of labor which:she must do. -
Suddenly my attention was attract-
ed to someone who noisily entered the
room, It was a tall, hollow-eyed,
thin-faced, wretched-looking man,
whom I was informed was the “fath-
er of the family.” I soon observed
that-he was drunk. |The sister-in-law
tried in vain to coax him out of the
room. He was boisterous, rude and
‘unmanageable—just a typical drunk-
en-man, no better and no worse than
most of the sons of humanity when
flcohol is in and manhood is out, Fin-
‘ally with the aid of the students we
were able to get him away from his
wife's sick bed.
By this time the mother was in
hard labor and very soon another hu-
man being was ‘born into the world.
I shall never forget that night. ‘There
are many sickening experiences whith
come to a doctor, but none so heart-
sickening as:to deliver a mother of a
deformed child, or a human monster!
The baby—for such we will have to
call ft—was fairly normal down to
the neck; the arms were all drawn
up and:out of shane, the tiny little de-
formed legs were drawn up. and across
the little weasened body and could not
be straightened out. The most strik-
ing pathology, however, was found in
the spinal column. A large ball of
nerves and blood vesels as large as a
man’s fist and covered over with a

$100,000.00 to be spent immediately for improvements at Eureka Villa. To those purchasers and all other
persons interested in Eureka Villa we wish to announce the following: sare
On June 17th, 1926, we negotiated the purchase of Eureka Villa consisting of 720 acres of land. Included
__inthat purchase were its good and bad accounts, contracts and deeds of which title has never been given. We
- are not going to discuss the ‘whys’ and ‘wherefores, fight or criticise anyone, but we have gone in there with our
” eyes open and with both feet on:the ground with plenty of money with which to give deeils and titles to all of those
who have waited so long for same. ;
WATER: Contract for the development of water has heen let to Ralph Shaffer of Filmore, California, who is
-now engaged in putting piles in the river-bed at Filmore, and promises'to get into Eureka Villa during the week
of July 25th. ; ; j a sg \: :
~ GENERAL IMPROVEMENTS: A general contract for the develpment of the entire tract, roads, dams, pools,
. parkways, playgrounds, etc., has been let to George Paontossa, 1045 Highland, Los Angeles., California.
- Should the little company release us in time, we will formally open this tract on Labor Day with the largest
swimming pool in the county at which time Jimmie Smith will stage a “Bathing Girl contest: silver trophy and.
cash, etc., as prizes. - ot oe '
HUDSON SPECIAL BROUGHAM: To all persons who should buy'a lot at Eureka Villa ea or before Sep-
tember 15th, 1926, we will give a number; to all persons whe now hold contracts and are ‘bebind: in their pay-
“ments, but whe care to pay up by September 15th, will also be given a number. These'nusmbers will entitle you
toa chancé of being presented with this automobile now 00 display at A. L. Johnston's, Inc., Hudson and Essex
Agency, 25th and Central Avenue. Ney ee ‘
To those who will make no effort whatever to bring their payments down to date by September 15th, 1926,
your-contracts will be cancelled and all money paid in,forfeited as liquidated damages. We shall more than do
* our part at Eureka Villa and.most assuredly will expect you to do yours. ney sige
Payments will be accepted by the National City Bank, 8th and Main Sts., until our escrow and trust shall
have been completed, at which time you will be instructed to put in your demands for deeds and title.
_ LAURA’C. JANES, Sidney P. Dones, Eureka Development Ass’n., Eureka Villa Advisory Board and Rev. E.
_ R. Driver, all of whom have nothing more to de with the management of Eureka Villa, but when the title cempany
shall have finished its search of this entire property we will own Eureka Villa outright and have ample money
with which to develop same. a: Le Bie
It is true, we did secure the county’s help with a park program to the extent of $25,000.00, but we did not
authorize anyone to commercialize on. that information with a letter or public demonstration, neither'did we
authorize anyone to use Eureka Villa to further their interests politically and as owners of that place, do feel
that someone or group exceeded their authority, therefore, we-are not responsible for anything that has been. -
said or done by anyone but ourselves. A ‘
To date, there has been only one person authorized to talk about the'future plans of Eureka Villa, namely,
Mrs. Nellie Turner, AXridge 5008. Should anyone desire to’know more or pay contracts down to date, or
— new purchases, or any salesmen care to sell these lots, see Mrs [Turner: * an .

Macedonia Daily Vacation Bible School
The Daily Vacation School at Macedonia opened with an enrollment of 70 pupils. The extraordinary feature of this school was the presence of 17 mothers on the opening day who, becoming so enthusiled demanded that the pastor organize a special class for them which he did.
They are studying the works of Ruth and Esther and are also taking an active part in Calisthenus, play as well as work. The present enrollment is over 125 with two more weeks to go and their energetic pastor, Rev. L. M. Curtis is all smiles this being his initiates Daily Vocation Bible School. The interest among the pupils is thorough and those who have not availed themselves of this opportunity are asked to do so. The teachers for this school are Mrs. L. M. Curtis, principal assisted by Mrs. E. G. White, Lurline Herney and Bernice Collins.
Dunbar Notes
Some years ago it was a rare thing to chance upon one of our group who was efficient in the use of surgical instruments, but since these latter days when these medical schools have offered inducements to students and where knowledge of human dissecting is not prohibitive many are they of our group who have become adepts in the art of human surgery. There are those of both sexes who ply the knife with perfect ease, and the results tell for themselves. Just scan the list below and for yourself the accomplishments of our goffigs under the guidance of our instructors. And it is gratifying to know that these operations were performed in a race institution. Many a giant oak from a little acorn grew. Watch Dunbar come to the fore.
The patients that have been dis
this week under favorable
conditions are:
Mrs. Jewell Barrett, Thos. W. Kvle;
Mr. Jesse Thomas, J. T. Whittaker;
Mr. Vincent T. Bartlett, J. T. Whittaker;
Mr. I. R. Brister, Frank A.
Gordon; Mrs. Ethel Nedrick, Chas. S.
Diggs; Mrs. Jennie Bennett, Chas. S.
Diggs.
The present patients are:
Mrs. Bertha Rodgers, Dr. Thos. W. Kvle; Mr. George Craig, Dr. Geo. Brown; Miss Angeline DeLavallade,
Ruth Temple; Mrs. Neal Watson,
Chas. S. Diggs; Mr. William Rester,
J. T. Whittaker; Mr. David G. Scott,
J. Stovall. These are improving
nicely.
The founders of this hospital should
be greatly rewarded for their efforts
by our strict patronage.

THE FORUM
The Forum was well attended on last Sunday and judging from the several comments made all seemed to have been awakened by the address of Mr. Geo S. Grant on the Bloodless Revolution. Mr. N. D. Thompson introduced Mrs. Carter, Pres. of the Pasadena Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. who made some interesting remarks on civic welfare. Mrs. J. C.

After appointing a Committee to investigate the Central Ave. Swimming Pool, President Duncan declared the Forum adjourned until next Sunday.
CARD OF THANKS
I take this means of expressing my thanks to the many hundreds of friends who have extended congratulations to myself and choir, for our success in the recent choir contest at Hollywood Bowl, July 12th. I believe that each director and choir member that participated, did much to elevate Negro music and art upon a higher plane and each should receive their share of praise for some, Again thanking all persons for their congratulations and good wishes, I beg to remain, yours for the advancement of Negro Music and Art,

This may be a little out of the railroad line but since there were so many of the railroad then at the fight I am forced to speak of ig as for myself. I am a peaceful man and never fight anything but sheets and pillow-ships on the Pullman cars, so for a change and some new ideas I thought I would journey out to Ascot Park and see the great Tiger Flowers strut his stuff, after running my car into about three trees and as many more holes as it was possible for a big six to get into, I arrived, covered with dust and nerves on edge. Being a poor Pullman Porter I bought a grand stand seat where I could get plenty of SUN. I soon found out that I was a cuspider for the row above me, cigar ashes, peanut hulls, burnt matches, and everything else found their way to my back—it was a wonderful thrill and I made up my mind to see it through. While I was watching Jack Thompson, a lightweight tease a fighter named Whybrow I heard a terrible crash, I asked the man next to me what it was and he said they broke the fence down and to my surprise a few minutes after it happened I seen my friend W. Glenn walk in and sit down. I am not saying he came, in by the fence route, but at the same time
crash happened, on looking the crowd over I saw J. Holmes, J. R. Woods, J. Carter, Sorsby, E. W. Brackett, J. White, W. B. Woods, High and a flock of other railroad men. R. R. Burns, the popular S. P. sheikh was sitting in the row below me and the Golden State Limited was just coming in, when the engineer blew his whistle Mr. Burns liked to have jumped out of his seat. A few minutes later they came kid Whybrow out of the second round. Jack Thompson never ever missed his hair. While I was waiting for the next casuality to come, I was attracted by a big ponderous Panama hat slowly moving toward the front like a big tiger! I brought my field glasses into play and was able to identify the big editor Mr. J. B. Bass, he sure was protected from the surr. his able assistant, Mr. Levette was along with him and several other prominent sports writers in ringside seats Hot Dog! I know they will ably tell you about the fight. The bell rang and a drama of slow moving pictures was put on for ten long rounds by Neil Cisby and Jimmy Byrne, the nearest man out after that bout was the referee till the main event so I thought I would look the crowd over again. Well, they say that church folk do not rights, evidently a lot of church members, were there a tiger came to see that the Deaco nTiger Flowers got a square deal. One brother passed by me and I was so used to seeing him take up collection in a certain church that I got my quarter out and he had glanced it up. He hit his hat if he had passed it. Oh my, yes, many church members were present. everybody all stood up at once and I thought of course the band was going to play the star spangled banner and I stood up to and jerked off my hat, but they all had stood up to get a good look at the famous Tiger Flowers on his way to the ring. After they had taken several pictures of him and Huffman the bell rang and they started to kill each other. It was some fight and in the third round when the Deaco was struck to the floor I swallowed my cigar; however, he got quickly up at the count of five and it was just too bad from then on for Mr. Huffman, he never had a chance and it was a wise referee that raised the Deaco's hand at the end of the battle. I met Mr. Sheffield at the fight and he kindly invited me for a ride in his plane in the near future. Good night! In the mad rush to get our cars which were parked in a big lot, I ran into Mr. and Mrs. Porter, Chef Cook Dusau and Ellison were in a Maxwell demanding the road, so I let them have it, and summing it all up together It was a fight to get there, a fight after you got there and a fight to get away.
SOUTHERN PACIFIC
They tell me that a certain dining car Steward on the Coast line missed out at Frisco, coming down to the third and Townsend St. station just too late to catch the 8:30 train. He hired a cab and tried to overtake the train at San Jose but was just too late at that point. The cab man coldly told him the bill was $30.00 and if it had not been for Mr. Clausen, the crack Coast crew, headed by the S. P. Sheik, would have had to handle the situation by themselves. Hard luck.1000.1

They say that Red Grange, the famous hoof ball booster has returned to his little home in Illinois and is back on the job juggling ice. Of course he said that he would rather do that than neck with some of those movie queens. But say, he is talking through his ice wagon, because if the truth were really known about the fact, it would be found that he figured that if he could handle a few more tone of ice, he would be able to put more pressure behind those famous movie kisses, and also would make Paddock feel that he isn't the only one who knows how to neck strongly.

How She Arose From Obscurity to Stardom
How She Arose From Obscurity to Stardom
(Continued from Last Week)
When little Madam's eyes were again opened she looked in upon a new world.
In the home in which her mother was a domestic, but where she had been taken by knd friends (white) little Madam so thoroughly fell into the routine of the home life that she and others considered her a member of the inner family circle.
So intelligent was the little girl that those interested in her future began to wonder and speculate as to what was her calling.
Little Madam was now school age, and her mother was anxious that her little girl should have the best that she could afford the way of an education—she was sent to the village school, where she was pronounced eligible for entrance. But only a few days passed before Madam attracted the undivided attention of the kiddies with her singing and ancing—all of which was somewhat a surprise to her elders, and at first, in the estimation of her teacher disrupted the order of things.

MRS. BRANDON HONOREE
AT RECEPTION
The great Hollywood Bowl Choir Contest has been the background for many beautiful social events, among which was a reception at the palatial home of Mr. and Mrs. H. C. J. Williams, 1148 E. 35th St., last Sunday afternoon and of which Mrs. Viola Brandon was the central figure, the reception being directed, in her honor, but largely participated in by members of the New Hope Choir. The other choir directors present were: Prof. Elmer C. Bartlett; Prof. and Mrs. C. Pitts; Mrs. Edwards of Santa Monica and Madam Mozelle Te Outley. The splendid address made by Master Harold Grant at the Bowl was repeated before the happy party. "Rev. A. Lively who has been ill for the past few months was certainly among the very welcome quests of the day. Meudames Oliver Rowe and Edna Moore constituted the chairmen of the Committees for this most delightful affair.
The home was beautifully decorated in silver and red, a color scheme most carefully carried out to perfection.
Little Mrs. Brandon the honoree of the occasion was convinced that her successful effort in the development of the New Hope Chorus into one of the greatest in the State was not in vain.

A bower of greenery combined with dahlia delphinium and gladioli bordered with golden canula sticks formed a background for the wedding party which approached down an aisle formed of garlands of fern and large floor vases filled with the same blossoms.
The bride who was indeed charming in bridal satin trimmed with rosepoint and beaded with pearls and rhinestones entered on the arm of her father. A beautiful bouquet of bride roses and orchids completed her rich costume.
She was attended by her two sisters, Mrs. Ethel Reeves and Mrs. Halie Smith who were lovely bouffant frocks of apricot and yellow taffeta and tulle with touches of silver, silver bands in their hair and silver slippers and carried bouquets of pink roses and delphinium.
Two little tots, Emma Louise, White and Velma Stovall we dainty frocks of pink and scattered rose petals in the path of the bride.
Mrs. Julia Christian Davis in blue taffetta played the wedding marches from Mendelssohn and Lohengrin and Mr. Irving Hardon rendered "All For You" just before the impressive ceremony lead by Rev. H. B. Hawes of the Presbytrian Church.
Mr. Chas. Roan, a cousin of the groom served as best man.
Over one hundred guests some of them prominent people from out of town, were present and many beautiful gifts were received by the happy couple.
The bride is a member of one of the city's best known families while the groom, an employee of the U. S. Post Office is prominent in the college and fraternity set, Mr. and Mrs. Gladden will be at home to friends at 3818 Naomi Ave.

campaign manager at the Crail head-
quarters. :
The letter received by Mr. Bogue
was signed by Wood Wilson, presi-
dent of the league, and Ella L, Cas-
sells, secretary, and ‘stated that this
endorsement had been made by the
Executive Board of the League and
approved by. the entire organization
at its last meeting. x
Ex-Service men, especially — those
who fought in the world war are solid
behind Buron Fitts who is a Repub-
liean candidate for Lieutenant Gov-
ernor at the.August primaries. -
Here on the Eastside, Fitts seems
to be well thought of and it would not
[be surprising to find him endorsed by
all of the local political organizations
before the day the polls are opened.
A sincere, hart worker. Fitts is
vouched for ‘by those who-know him
as a man who dtands for a square
deal, regardless of color or creed.
Vote of Continued
Confidence :
Judge F.C. Valentine has made
an enviable*record as a judge of the
Superior. Court and it goes witnout
saying that the people of this county
will re-elect him for «nother term
with an increased majority.
Judge W. T. Bishop who has no
opposition for the position which ‘he
seeks on the: Superior Court is well
worthy of the continued support of
the people. His record is such that
the mention of his name means real
justice and fair and square dealing!
Judge Marry A. Holger indeed has
iroven his worth on the bench of the
Superiot Court for this county, and
16 due at all times ta repeive the enp-
port of all classes. ot our citizenship
lot any position which we may seek.
‘Thé Superior Court of this county
‘needs this eminent jurist’s service and
will re-elect him by an increased vote
to succeed himeelf.
Big:hearfed, broad-and generous is
the appellation which we would con-
fer upon Judge Charles S. Burnell.
‘Aside from these very pleasant char-
acteristics, his interpretation of law
has made for him a name which will
endure forever. It is well known that
even handed justice is always 9p. daty
in his court, The same rule of jus-
tice applies to all alike and truly
Judge Burnell will receive a , hearty
support from all classes for ‘re-elee-
tion.
Judee Charles Crail proved himself
one of the outstanding jrrists of this
wreat Western country and deserves
the ‘united support which is his, for
another term—the benzh of the*Su:
perior Court.

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, JULY 30, 1926
TIGER FLOWERS SHOWS THAT HE IS REAL KING OF THE RING
20,000 yelling, cheering fight fans nearly filled the big Ascot arena on Saturday, July 24th and watched Tiger Flowers, flowers of the middleweight champion win one of the hardest fights of his career. Over 10,000 of the spectators were colored, who have been idolizing Flowers ever since he arrived in the city and just too, for he is barring none; the squares, gamest, cleanest fighter the race has ever had and is a credit to his people. Perfect weather smiled on the promoters of the big scrap, Dick Donald and Joe Lillard. From the 10,000 automobiles, from 'street cars' and buses, they poured in till the first prelim went on at 2:30.
Flowers was, as always, first to enter the ring, after kneeling in the dressing room and offering up his usual prayer. The crowd cheered his entrance. He was dressed in a green robe with a big tiger's head on the shoulder and green track trunks. He was accompanied by his manager Walk Miller, Pop Barret of the Ocean Park Athletic Club and Old Folks (as he is affectionately called by all the fighters), he is massurer and trainer at the Main Street Club. Pop Barret is a veteran of the ring with 46 years' experience. So with these three, the Tiger had just what he wants, men who know enou, h to let him alone and fight his own battle giving only necessary advice. Down a few rows from the ring was Flowers' wif eand baby who are with him all the time. In Eddie Huffman's corner was his manager and two seconds. Referee Abe Roth gave them lengthy instructions and at the clang of the gong the Tiger leaped from his chair and the fight was on. Flowers landed the
first blow, a right jab, then a left hook, then two right jabs to head and face and Huffman clinched. Flowers shoots left to face, Huffman right to head. Flowers throws guard wide open Huffman starts in, gets' hard right to his head followed-by another that makes him stumble and almost go down. They fight hard to the bell with even honors.
Round Two: Flowers lands two lefts to head; Huffman lands to body; Flowers lands hard left to head, two lefts to body; Huffman appears hurt. Flowers' round.
Round Three: They sparred for opening. Flowers kept shooting rights to Huffman's head. Huffman returns with good, left to head, then two rights. Flowers rocks Huffman back on his heels. Huffman comes back with hard right to Flowers' jaw and the champion goes down on his back like a killed beef. He staggers up at the sixth count, groggy and out on his feet. Right here is where Huffman had his chance if he had known how to take it and it would have meant many thousands of dollars in future fights. He followed the staggering Flowers around the ring trying to land the finishing punch but missing him all the time. Flowers begins with revue and fights back furiously while the crowd will wait Both men have the crowd温时 at the bell Huffman's round by a mile. Pop Barret cautions Flowers to lay away from Huffman's right and keep his right jab in Huffman's face. Flowers does this and the rest of the fight was:
Round Four—Flowers.
Round Five—Even.
Round Six—Flowers.
Round Seven—Flowers.
Round Eight—Flowers
Round Nine—Flowers.
Round Ten—Flowers, by ten miles.
All through the rest of the fight
the fight Deacon never let the Sailor
connect a solid punch, but stepped
in and out and around him, hitting,
jabbing, from all angles. Huffman's
face was a sight from the fourth
round—nose, split, lips in ribbons,
back and body beaten to a crimson.
Nothing but his remarkable stamina
and toughness held him up and he
could not have gone another round,
sinking onto his stool as the fight
ended, while Flowers turned a back
hand spring and to grab his wife
and baby in his arms.
Flowers got $7000 for his afternoon's work, Huffman got $5,500
Flowers,anny and manager, left
Sunday morning at New York,
when he fights Harry Greb in a return match on the 12th or 25th of August.
Another little colored fighter who took big honors was Young Jack Thompson, who knocked out Harry Whybron, the newcomer from Australia in the second round of their six-round bout. Neil Clisby did not do so well. He lost a ten-round decision to Jimmy Eyrne, white. Their fight was slow, with constant clinching. Joe Guerro, Enso Bov for whom the factory closed at which he is employed, made them proud of him by his defeating Jackie Sherman in a vicious four-round opener.

Classy Card For Sat At Main St. Athletic
The Main Street Athletic Club with its, able promoters, Curtis and Cisto, Manager "Pop" Neals' and others of the able staff has a classy line-up of its usual snappy bout for Saturday night. This club always gives the colored fighter a fair deal and welcomes the colored patronage. They have this program on for this week: Main Event, 6 rounds - Angel De La Cruz v. Mateo Magdaleno, 118 pounds. Semi-Windup, 4 rounds - Orlando (Kid) Lucerro v. Mickey Erno, 108 lbs. Special, 4 Rounds: Chris Cardenas v. Phil Blood, 130 lbs. 4 Rounds: Joe Porras v. Joe Burch, 133 lbs.; Tony Flores v. Clarence Elliott, 133 lbs.; Johnny Alvarez v. Albert Loyell, 118 lbs.
HARRY WILLS AS FAR FROM FIGHT WITH DEMPSEY AS EVER
From the looks of the boxing horizon now it seems that Wills has as slim a chance as ever of getting his coveted fight with Dempsey for the world's championship. The boxing commission, now of New York, through Geo. Brower, is dickering with promoter Tex Rickard for a return of the fight to New York which is to take place between Dempsey and Gene Tunny. Although Jas, Farley has and still holds out for Wills they
have decided rather than lose the fight to Chicago, they will reconsider the matter with Dempsey and Tex Rickard. To that end they have invited Tex to come back to New York and confer with them; so with the weight of Wm. Muldoon its influence it bids fair to fall to New York to get the fair sized plum, although it will never equal one between Wills and the champion.
MAIN STREET ATHLETIC CLUB STAES USUAL SATURDAY NIGHT FIGHTS TO BIG CROWD
The popular Main street Club pulled its usual Saturday night fights at their arena on Main Street, regardless of the fact that the Flowers-Huffman fight had just been pulled off at Ascot.
Bobby Herman won over Tommy Leucer in six rounds of the main event. Jack O'brien fought Frank Villa to a draw in the six round semi-windup. Johnny Donherty K. O'ed. Eddie Hubik 1st round in special. Lon Bozent beat Joe Mandot in 4 rounds. Roul Montecino decision over Pedro Pablo, 4 rounds. Alex Arrola K. O'ed. Frank Abadaro in the 2nd round of the curtain raiser.

If the State Treasury was in poor
health, why there isn’t a matorist_ in
the country that would not be willing
to lend a helping hand to-nurse it
back, but goodness gracious, merey
me, ‘what with a $9,000,000. surplus
on hand, is the big idea? Someone
always wants to milk the cow till it
bleeds unless the cow kicks and the
milk cow should kick.
Taking the motorists the country
over, it is found that in the United
States the 1925 gasoline taxes were
83 per cent more than those of 1924,
and four and a half times those of
1922, "Motorists of the nation paid
$146,000,000 in gasoline tax last year,
about 10 per cent of which was paid
by California.
__ The report of the Bureau of Indus-
trial Technology shows that it costs
the average automobile owner more
than $7000 a year to own and operate
a car. ‘These figures were computed
from the statistics cf the National
Automobile Chamber 07 Commerce,
the motor and accessory manufactur.
insurance companies, labor organiza-
tions and gas anil ‘oil dustry bu-

If. these figures are not enough to
imake the average motorist put on his
thinking cap, the ‘recent report _of
State Controller Riley is a warning,
He says the total boniled indebtedness
of all forms of government im Califor-
ia is over $609,000,000, an increase of
‘over $76,000,000 over last year. The
increase ‘since 1911 is 549 per cent,
while the assessed value af nonopera-
‘tive property which is liable for the
interest and redemption of bonds, in-
creased only 160 per cent. As’ the
motorist shares responsibility for
these debts and must pay his part of
the interest and principal, it is but

NEW SITE FOR HEFLIN MANUFACTURING COMPANY
The Hefflin Manufacturing Company, Inc., has just closed a deal for a factory site which comprises/ approximately four acres on Santa Ana Blvd, and 111th street, between Alameda and Wilmington Blvd, on either side of two truck boulevards direct from Los Angeles to the harbor. This site will give to Hefflin Manufacturing Co. 175,000 square feet of building space with ample shipping facilities. The property has a frontage on a newly paved boulevard of over 1000 feet. This deal has been pending for quite some time but was not consumed until last week. The former owner of this property, Mr. Chas. H. Green, has subscribed for a large block of stock in this company.
The Hefflin Manufacturing Company's rapid growth in the last five years has brought them to the points where they need more space. This movement is the result of that necessity. The old quarters at 1020 E. 14th street, where they are now located is where they will continue to do business until their new quarters are finished.
Under the guidance and direction of Mr. Leon Hefflin, president and manager, the company is making a tremendous stock drive, aly supported by the Board of Directors, named Pres., L. N. Hefflin, Vice-Pres., Hon. Frederick M. Roberts, Secey, E. N. Crain; Treas., W. C. Hammond, and K. J. Saterwhite; and the newly organized Advisory Board, composed of the following persons: Rev. W. D. Millre; Rev. W. D. Carter; Rev. A. L. Shaw; Atty, Hugh Macbeth and Rev. L. H. Wilson
Sunday, August 8th, the dedication will take place, which will be an enchloe making event and every person interested in the advancement of his or her racial interest should not fail to attend.

PIANOLOGY
This article is published in the interest of pianos and their frequent needs, in relation to Tuning, Action Regulating, Voicing, Repair. These are a copy of a series of talks given by the famous piano manufacturer, Mr. A. G. Gulbransen, maker of the well-known Registering Piano that bears his name. These are republished to call the piano owning public's attention to the importance of having their instruments tuned and regulated by a competent tuner; regularly. The writer is a well-known Tuner and Repairer of Pianos and Player Pianos, and is as a member of the grace sollicits your patronage. A Granadue of the Niles Bryant School of Piano Tuning, Action Regulating and Refining, August 19, 2001, J.rof. C. Chicago, 1327 E. Ninth Place, Chicago, A piano contains nearly 700 feet of highly tempered steel strings serewed to exert a pull eighteen tons, it was declared by A. G. Gulbransen, Chica o Piano No. 107, facturer, in an address.
"The 230 or more see strings are stretched over a sounding board or spruce with a surface of from 10 to 2,400 square inches, according to the type of piano," said Mr. Guibransen. "Every atmospheric change affects the sounding board."
"When windows stick in wet weather and rattle in dry, people are not surprised, but they seem to think that the piano sounding board and strings are above the laws of physics. Wood and metal are affected in different degrees by cold and heat so that atmospheric changes alter the relationship, between sounding board and strings."
"A large proportion of the approximate 13,000,000 pianos in Anno1 homes have been permanently damaged by neglect of these facts. Unbalanced strains in the interior of the piano result in split or warped sounding boards, with accompanying loss of resonance. At every change of season the piano should be inspected and euned by a qualified tuner in order to maintain the perfect balance of its delicate parts.
"It is the interior of the piano, not its outside, that needs expert attention. The maid can polish its case. When the piano is regarded as a piece of furniture instead of as a musical instrument, it is on its way to become a whatnot that attains the well for the display of its home."

Much Business Among Negroes in Jack-
Jacksonville, Fla., July 24. (A, N. P.)—census taken by the recently re-organized branch of the National Negro Business League has revealed that there are more than six hundred Negroes engaged in various kinds of business in. Jacksonville; that is, those who maintain business houses. There are many other Negroes doing other kinds of business such as soliciting, collecting and promoting, but do not maintain places.
The surprising part of this is the fact that the local whites here are doing much to encourage the Negro business men of the city in their efforts to organize. Every movement of the business men has been encouraged by whites, especially by the afternoon daily, which is represented among colored people by Lemuel D. Bolton.
