SENATOR SAMUEL SHORTRIDGE GOESOVERBIG Phone: VANDIKE 9244 ELK SENATOR WOMANLESS WEDDING VOLUME 40 EDITORIAL FORE AND AFTER THOUGHT Bv C. A. B. Mrs. Hicks of the Parent Teachers Association, gave a most interesting personal glimpse of the segregation scheme as it is being worked out in the Public School System of this city, last Sunday afternoon at Eagle Hall. Miss Vivian Temple, in the creation and presentation of the drama, "Easy Money", brought to light the fact that the average young Negro was not asleep as to his real position as to citizenship. In striking contrast she painted two pictures, one of Hope and the other discouragement. Hope showed that the young Negro was willing to even fight for the high ideals of citizenship, while Discouragement, on the other hand, easily explained that the way of vice was the only avenue not fraught with prejudice open to him. In other words th eplot was a plea for justice. Last Friday evening, Atty. Willis O. Tyler appeared before the Republican Study Club headed by Mrs. Clara C. Hulbert in one of the most remarkable political speches in behalf of his own candidacy that it has ever been our privilege to listen to. In fact the Republican Study Club is one of the most alive organizations in the city, and is destined to do a great work for political uplift in this community. A few weeks ago Los Angeles had a distinguished visitor, Miss Elizabeth Carter of New Bedford, Mass. Miss Carter is one of the most respected school teachers of New Bedford where she has taught for more than twenty years. She is one of the first and best presidents that the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs has ever had, a quiet, but conscientious civic worker, and a humanitarian of first rank in her own city and state. Miss Carter was accompanied to the Pacific Coast by Mrs. Hattie Taylor Jones of Boston, and Miss Alberta Dunbar of Providence, R. I. Elder Rodgers of Evangelistic fame, who is holding forth at the big tent at 20th and Central, presented to his hearers last Wednesday evening an original Fiji Island chief, who could not speak a word of English, but nevertheless thru his interpreter, delivered a message to his hearers. Elder Rodgers is one of the most outstanding Christian BUILDING A RACE The Board of Directors through the charitably inclined have undertaken the responsibility of father and mother for the dependent orphans of the Negro race. A responsibility that we regard as an opportunity. To provide a home for those little ones who, by the providence of God, have been deprived of the one which God gave them to is to carry out the work of the Creator who gave them existence. MAKING LIFE We are in a life-making business, we provide a home for the purpose of bringing to useful futurity the lives God has made and which He has placed in our charge. MORE THAN A COMMISSARY A home is more than a commissary; its table more than a messboard; its wardrobes more than lockers. These things exist for a definite purpose, and are auxiliaries of the home. Physical necessities must be met in the home. Life may be supplied. The need of the orphan child is more than that of food and clothing. The life is more than meat, and the body than raiment. INSTITUTION ESSENTIAL The care of the orphan as the ward of a sane civilization, distinctly Christian, cannot be provided for in any other way than in an institution which supplies the home atmosphere and environment in which the young life can be trained up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. NOT AN ALMSHOUSE Hence the Home is an institution rather than an almshouse. The State educates its citizens because it will make them better citizens, less liable to become wards on its bounties and more apt to become contributors to wealth. The Orphan's Home is or should be a part of our general system of education and should be so regarded. It differs from other schools only in that an entire support is afforded the pupils; it is not different from them in the underlying purposes of the Home. The Home will repay the donors for the contributions they make in its support. GREATEST INVESTMENT What a paying investment to put money into human lives. To get results even in one case out of ten would be incomparable returns. A life of usefulness is beyond comparison in value to money of any amount, and yet in our orphanage work at St. John, it is easy to make a relatively small amount of money count in the training of a life, for its highest usefulness. We have just begun the work of educating orphan children. The equipment and plant are far too small and inadequate for the present needs, and the needs themselves should be multilied and more imperative. Continued on pag 7 Dr. T. L. Griffith, pastor of the Second Baptist Church, left the city last Wednesday with Mrs. Griffith, en route to points in Iowa, Kansas, Illinois, and Michigan, where they will visit with relatives and friends. Mrs. Esther R. Sims, and Mr. and Mrs. James Chaney have returned from a most delightful trip to the northern part of the State, including Oakland, Sacramento and San Francisco. characters in our midst, and his voice is being heard and heeded by the masses. Thank God for an undefiled gospel. APPRECIATION We want to express our highest appreciation for the thousands of expressions of endorsements for our expose of the recent situation in which the brazen exploitation of a race was handled in no mincing words in the columns of this paper. We desire to state that in the future as we have in the past we shall be on the watch tower looking out at all times and will surely do our utmost to circumvent those who would despoll us. For every movement worth while for public weal, with sincere devotion we will ever do our part for its advancement ad success. With malice toward none and charity for all we will ever maintain the position which we have assumed. We realize that we have the unstinted support of race loving and law abiding citizens. We depreciate the very idea of the garbed newspaper regrets given in the Chicago Defender, in which it was heralded through out the country that the editor of this paper was seriously injured, beaten up, etc., when in a matter of time we have never been even struck by our assailant. We were assaulted on the public streets of the city, with language unpritable, our life threatened and by the said preacher L. B. Brown trying his best to do us bodily injury with his finger in our mouth and inflicting a slight injury to our eye, which for a day or so was blood shot thereafter. Even one of our local contemporaries in defiance of all ethics of journalism of friendly newspapers, wrote that we had a black eye, were beaten up and followed with a whole lot of hog wash given them by our assailant without at least asking for our version of the same. Thirty years of journalism has yet found us in a position where our column's could not be used against any individual who was contending for a great moral principle at the behest of anybody—no matter how barren the flour sack or how short the pay roll. To newspaper, men our position would always be, "brother you have got to show me." NEGRO OBJECTION Brockton, Mass., Aug. 29.—The marriage of Miss Eldythe H. Willen, 17, of Montello, to Clarence F. Aikon, 18, a Negro of Boston, has been indefinitely postponed because of the failure of the Negro boy to obtain his guardian's consent to the marriage. The parents of the white girl had consented. Preacher, Former Slave, Dies (By A. N. P.) Columbia, S. C., Aug. 28—The Rev. Paul Haynes, 79 years old, and a former slave, is dead. During the Civil War, he was owned by Gen. Wade Hampton, and white people in this section were proud of Haynes' boast that Gen. Hampton was one of the best masters who ever lived. Rev. Haynes worked with the southern white in the war for freedom. He had been a preacher for 55 years and built several churches during the early years of his ministry. For the past 30 years he had been a servant at the South Carolina State Fair. FOR RENT: Three-room house 1622 Lake Shore Ave. Telephone WEastmore, 6458. Juliaetta Harris Gives Hard Battle to National Tennis Title Holder in 3 Hard Sets CALIFORNIA GIRL EXPECTED TO GIVE ALL TITLE HOLDERS TROUBLE SHOULD SHE RETURN NEXT YEAR St. Louis, Mo., August 19.—Miss Julia Etta Harris, the girl wonder who made her first appearance in the National Tennis Tournament this week at Sherman Park, almost took the title back to California by winning in the first round against Miss Lula Ballard of Philadelphia, the present champion. After this spectacular match was called on Monday morning on account of what about twelve hours Tuesday the contestants again took the court in a drizzling rain and on a firm but rather slow surface. The first set had been won by Miss Ballard 7-5 and Miss Harris led the second 2-1. The night's rest and the boast of Miss Harris that she was going to carry the battle through three sets to victory seemed likely of realization when she began driving those long sweeping forwards, to the corners of the court, keeping a good-one game lead on the champion who by this time was bringing all her court craft and decisive volleying to the in order to stop the baseline attack of the Pacific Coast star. The crowd was being carried along by this new flash of the West with the Helen Wills drive and under the stimulus of the gallery in spite of the rain, the advantage Miss Ballard's low chopped balls gave on the wet ground, this young unknown from the far West in impure soon called 3-6, second set won by Miss Julia Etta Harris. sisted on being heard from and the Then, everybody was excited and as the third set began it looked like a new champion was about to be born in the first round and A.T. of the tenth annual A.T. A. Championships to survive and best old Doe Pluvius himself. At three games all (8-3) the third set the break came. Tiden says: the psychological game is the seventh and Miss Ballard's experience here bested her younger opponent. It was not over, however, as Miss Harris rallied again after Miss Ballard had brought the score to 5-8 in her own favor and took the next game. With things going her way it looked like a deuce set, but just then a line decision seemed to affect Miss Harris and she netted an easy return. Miss Ballard passed her twice with a sharp volley and an overhead smash and on the set match point, one of those perfectly placed shots of the champion just hesitated for a moment on the net cord and fell over dead on the Californiaian's court. It was a heart-breaker, but Miss Harris hurried forward like a true sportswoman and heartily reached across the net and congratulated the young lady from the East who won in their first meeting by her all court game. Miss Ballard with her usual charm and unassuming manner rechrocated the warm felicitations of her opponent who is destined to become her most formidable rival. Many were the gentlemen who empied the skill of these two young ladies. The 15th Annual Recital of the Wilkins Piano Academy will be held Tuesday agening, September 21st at the Second Baptist Church, 24th and Griffith. Watch papers for particulars. The Virginia Press Denounces Wythe County Lynching Although there is little prospect of anything but a superficial investigation of the recent lynching in Wythe County, Virginia, in which the mob stormed the jail and brutally murdered an imprisoned man, newspapers of the State have been emphatic in their denunciation of the outrage. The N. A. A. C. P. has received clippings from a number of the leading newspapers in which strong statements are made. The Richmond News Leader in an editorial headed "A Dark Disgrace to Virginia," declared: "A drunken mob of savages on a South Sea Island could not have been more brutal. Russian 'rods' in the maddest frenzy of their religious revolution: would have hesitated at such trinity. Done in the name of white supremacy, this crime distresses a commonwealth that has boasted the patent honesty of its justice." The Richmond Times-Dispatch, heading its editorial "Law and Order Out raged," writes: "In permitting—or in failing to prevent this lawless execution of a prisoner—Wytheville has openly outraged law and order and it has betrayed its lack of confidence in its duly constituted courts. That is the real pity of this latest lynching, the real danger in such mob murders. It is an attack upon the country which in constituted." Virginia is not justed." Still another editorial admonishes the white citizens of Wytheville not to bemoan the bad advertising given to their town but to set themselves resolutely to discovering and punishing the lynchers. The editorial goes on: "Reports from Wytheville are to the effect that neither the town or quunity seems to be particularly perturbed over the outrage upon law and justice of which a mob of its citizens is guilty. If those reports be true then Wytheville will not be able to re-establish itself in the esteem of law-abiding people by pleading the injustice of its publicity." Mr. and Mrs. J. Barker of Watts, Calif., nee Miss Edgar Hall, entertained with a dancing party Tuesday evening at Christian Tavern in honor of their house guest and Mrs. Perry of Kansas City. NO INDICTMENTS IN LYNCHING Louisville, Ark., Aug. 29—No indictments were returned by the Lafayette County Grand Jury which was supposed to investigate the lynching Powell near here two weeks ago. Powell had killed a deputy sheriff. Billy Matthews Passes Through City Hon. W. C. Matthews, Assistant to the Attorney General of the U. S., passed through the city Tuesday en route to his office in San Francisco. Mr. Matthews had been to Chicago where he attended the National meeting of the Negro Bar Association. Mr. Walter Butler, well known business man of Oakland and organizer for the Staughts Campaign, was a visitor in our city Sunday, shaking hands with Florida. M. B. Mr. Wm. J. Wheaton of San Francisco, contributor of "Comments" which appear each week in this paper, was a visitor to our Sanctum this last Wednesday. Mr. Wheaton is on his way home from Cleveland, Ohio, which place he recently visited to attend the Annual National Session of the I. B. P. O. E. of W., being a delegate to the same from his Lodge in San Francisco. He reports a very intreesting session and a torrid climate and was pleased indeed to return to the sun kissed valleys of California. Mr. Wheaton left over the S. P. Thursday for his home in the north after a pleasant visit with his brother, Mr. Horace Wheaton of this city. "BLACK PANTHER" IS EXECUTED (By A. N. P.) Nashville, Tenn., Agg. 29.—Death was meted out to Charles Barr, the so-called "black panther" criminal Friday morning, for the alleged murder of three white persons in 1921. Barr's battle for his life was fought through all the courts of the state. He went to the electric chair without a whimper. Barr's habit, according to police, was to attack white "petting parties" on lonely roads at midnight. In many cases he was said to have robbed them, and in others, to have murdered one or the other of the parties. Three years after the crimes had been committed, Barr was traced through a ring which had been stolen from one of his victims and pawned by Barr's wife. He confessed but later repudiated his confession. Barr's father was a minister. J. FINLEY WILSON RE ELECTED HEAD OF ELKS ORDER J. Finley Wilson, Washington, D. C., Editor of The Washington Eagle, was re-elected to serve his fifth term as Grand Exalted Ruler of the I. B. P. O. E. of W. in their annual national convention held in Cleveland, Ohio, on last Tuesday. The Grand Secretary, J. H. Bates, upon whom such a fight was waged by Harry Pace of New York, was reelected to his present position. CALIFORNIA LOSES REPRESENTATION Lieut. L.

DOINGS OF THE FEDERATED IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION On last Sunday P. M. at Eagle Hall the Association held a very enthusiastic meeting. These meetings are purely educational and very beneficial to each and every Negro citizen. Each meeting there will be a different president chosen from the audience. Last Sunday Dr. Ruth Temple very ably presided and proved to everyone present that she was not only a talker but a doer. When we yield to the temptation of selling our race for a paltry dollar, easy positions, or a big name we never stop to think of the thousands of years it will take to tear the result away. Thank God the race has one in its midst that was able to withstand the temptation in the faces of hundreds of Caucasian women—this was Mrs. Hicks the Past President of the Parent Teacher's Association. who missed the last week of this You woman indeed took a rare treat. We have mountains look like moke hills if we had just ten persons like Mrs. Hicks, for the fight is not only with the other race but also among ourselves. Words cannot explain the good thought that our own Mrs. C. A. Bass brought to us, for as you know, she is always brim full of wonderful information. In a few words she told us of the value and need of a complete boycott to stamp out segregation. The board members are working on a program that will be interesting and educational thus not only assure our staff not forget one spare moment, spent with us. Father Cleghorn is going to be the speaker for next Sunday, 3 o'clock P. M. at Eagle Hall. Mr. Page, our own composer will render several selections. The little talented May sisters will also favor us with many numbers. Mr. S. B. W. May will act as president for the afternoon. Now, don't sit idly by and wait for trouble, let us pull together now in the one thing that concerns us, Racial Problems. We are in receipt of a card from Wm. Roberson, Secretary of the Elks from Cleveland, that he is having a wonderful time and that California goes big. Secretary Roberson was a strong booster for Wilson who won out in the election. ---FOR BARGAINS SEE--- J.

N. P.) Moundsville, W. Va., Aug. 28. —Philip Euman, 18, the youngest person to ever be hanged in this state, walked calmly to the gollows Friday where he held life for the alleged murder of a white grocer. As he left the death cell for the gallows, other prisoners sang spirituals, to which he listened unmoved. Throughout the last hours of his life he displayed absolutely no fear. PERFECT ARTISTS IN A PERFECT PLAY WITH A PERFECT MESSAGE BY: HARRY LEVETTE "The play's the thing" said William Shakespeare, putting the words in the lips of Hamlet, the melancholy Dane, who sought to expose the misdeeds of his unscrupulous mother, and scheming father-in-law, the king, and thereby he meant to alleviate the "stings and arrows of outrageous fortune" that so beset his shadowed life. Such could be said of the play, "Easy Money" which was presented at the Gamut Auditorium on Monday night, August 28rd. For as was remarked by a member of the other race, who witnessed its performance, it were well if the four corners of the earth could see it, as it would do more than books, artery, and radical argument toward placing our case from an economical standpoint before the world, and tending toward the alleviation of interracial affairs. It was beyond any doubt the strongest drama ever given on a local stage by local talent. The writer has witnessed many spoken dramas played by many great actors and actresses such as Mantell, Mrs. Leslie, Carter, Mrs. Fisle, Sothern and Otis Skinner, but dares to say that p the beginning of their careers, none of them showed more the ladies and gentlemen who make promise and natural ability than did up the "Neighborhood Players." To our regret space will not permit a full resume of the evening's entertainment, nor a critical digest of the play of our writing, but suffice to say much (was lent to it) by the at most prologue. It was in two parts with a juvenile chorus under the direction of Mrs. Neosha Bartleson. FRANK A. HARVEY, 1st Vice-Pres. A. HARTLEY JONES, Sec'y.-Mgr. NORMAN O. HOUSTON JAS. H. SHACKELFORRD BRAVELY is apply at the of N ASSOCIA and an adult chorus by New Hope Baptist under the able direction of Mrs. Viola Brandon, the "Female Creatore" in the first part. The second part depicted the struggle of Negro Youth up a ladder, whose steps were the various difficulties the Negro must meet only to find the door of employment closed against him succumbing at last to drink, vice, and intemperance, that harpy-like dogged his foot-steps. The play told the all too realistic tale of an 18 year old girl graduate of the U. of C. and her disheartening fight to gain employment to support her sick and widowed mother. Rebuffed on every hand because of color she answered an ad for maid only to find the inevitable offer to be mistress to a white man who had refused her as stenophraser. Repulsing his advances, she works in the house for his sister under many humiliations but some what encouraged by the kind words of another maid widow of a soldier hanged for the Houston riot. Finally discharged for alleged impudence toward a white former schoolmate visitor, she is just about to accept the offer of the rich but dissipated Wellington, of a bungalow, fine clothes, easy money, when returning home, finds her mother has died in her absence and is beyond the need of earthly comforts worthily or illgotten. Reviving Wellington who arrives in the midst of the sad scene to claim her, she inhales chloroform and joins her mother in death. Somewhat sordid some might say, but not more so than Ibsen's "Ghosts", but carrying a far greater and more important message in its intense dramatic appeal. This wonderful play was written by Miss Vivian Temple, a young Los Angeles author of unusual literary ability. Miss Marcia Prutt was a pretty and very natural Anita Selma, the college girl in the lead. Mr. Banks played opposite as Mr. Ssm'1 Wellington, Miss Thelma Brown was Mrs. Ramer, the soldier's widow; Miss Porta Prutt was Elsie, the white school mate of Anita' rMs. Hazel Temple was Anita's mother. Miss Etford Sanders was Mrs. Wellington, the typical clamish Southerner. Mrs. Sara Carrott was Mrs. Turner. Mrs. N. Hawkins was Nise's mother and little Jane Christian, a child nephlor and friend of Anita. Taken all in all each player lived the role he sought to portray, he considered the footlights that will long enough be compared by those fortunate to see it. The profuse chorus was played by the Propaganda Committee of the Federation of Improvement Associations. HOFFING ALONG WITH THE GRASSHOOPERS The Grasshoppers had their semi-annual election last week.

Some times or more answered the roll call last Saturday evening discarding the yokes of duty and indulgence in frivolity till midnight when a delicious lunchroom was served and taps sounded, bringing to a close a happy event. F. S.: Everyone wishes to know where we Nesh Thompson, Jr. The Wemens' Liberty P. P. B. C. met at the resident of Mrs. O. Bell on the above date.

Every boy and every girl who is now about to enter school may have the satisfaction of knowing that his or her work may shape itself toward participation in very great events, for the world beckons from ten thousand points to those who have the requisite knowledge and equipment, therefore this coming week will be a full one, socially speaking, because Friday, September 10, 1926 at Eagle Hall, 822 Central avenue, the Golden State Club will give their school opening dance, admission 35c.

BEAUTIFUL GARDEN PARTY Last Wednesday evening, August the 25th, the beautiful Azusa Gardens, just about two miles the other side of Monrovia, Cal., was the scene of one of the most brilliant dinner dances of the season, at which Mr. and Mrs. Charles Duvault Conner were the host and hostess, honoring Mrs. John Howard Butler of San Francisco, Cal., and Miss Jane La Conte Smith of Baltimore, Mc. The Azusa Garden Inn was beautifully decorated in a varied floral motif with colored lights produced in magnificent plow up windows, the many charming and distinguished guests that glided over the smooth hardwood surface of the Inn to the syncopated and melodious strains of Mr. Verne Floyd and his Sunkissed California Orchestra. Dancing, Rabbit Chasing, and a miniature early Fall fashion show, displaying the latest thing in fur coats, provided special entertainment for the evening. There were two beautiful prizes awarded to the two persons who caught the rabbits first, after they were released from their cages on the floor among the guests, and the first prize which was a unique Bohemian Sandwich Tray was won by Mr. Stanely Curty, while Mr. Curtis Smith took second which was a Bohemian Serving Bowl with a crystal ladle. Poor rabbits! The scene was most interesting too. About 11:30 a trio of California's most charming young belles including Misses Gwendolyn Diggs, Ruth M. Carr of Oakland, Cal., and Miss Lorain Price, stepped out in these fur coats and displayed them to perfection after which dancing was resumed until twelve o'clock when in a very novel way Mrs. Charles D. Conner requested that the honorees including Mrs. John H. Butler and Miss Jane La Conte Smith, stand upon one of the tables to be introduced. Everyone declared the two honorees made a beautiful picture, as they were dressed in gorgeous evening attire. Delicious frappe of which there was plenty was very refreshing. At 12:15 everyone was served in cafeteria style, the tasty supper of the evening. Sporting attire was the feature dress of the evening. The guests numbered nearly 500, many of them out of town guests including: Mrs. T. B. Williams of Chicago, Ill.; Mrs. Mela Helen Beck, Mrs. Fredrikta Sprague Perry, Mrs. Myrtle Foster Cook, Mrs. Stokes, all of Kanssa City, Ms.; Mrs. Grace Graig Simms and Mrs. Albert Bass of Detroit, Mr. Garland Anderson of San Pamina, Cal.; Mrs. M.

REVIEWS "AESOP" (For the Associated Negro Press) "The funniest book on earth" is praise not too extravagant for the new volume by William Pickens, entitled "American Aesop". In this book there are deserts of first-rate Negro stories, besides other comical tales, and a preface by Mr. Pickens which is one of the best essays on the function and, essence of humor that has ever appeared. "I like the flash of white light used to take photographs at night," says the author, "Humor enables poorly sensitized minds to register what might be used for them to blurred spots of dark manages the discourse. . . Good humor attracts a pathetic response as naturally as the sun attracts a flower. . . even the absturse may be discerned through sympathy, while clearness itself may fail to penetrate indifference." Here we have a scholarly analysis written in fresh vigorous style. The stories are as good as the preface. They are practically all new, or if a trifle worn in a few cases, they are cleverly rehabilitated. Everyone of them winds up with a "bite"—a spice and a tang that leave you chuckling for a few minutes as you ruminate before turning over the page. Like all such collections the "Aesop" should be taken gradually, say twenty pages a day. Mr. Pickens, who is spending his life trying to bring about fair treatment for the colored race could not have found a better way to open our eyes of understanding for his people than by compiling this collection and philosophical sayings. Many of the stories show a good-natured shewiness a worldly wise power of analysis not normally wise Negroes; indeed, we plainly get an intimation that some day the tables may be turned and these folk will be holding us "whites" up to the searching light of their ridicule, if in fact, they have not already begun to subject us to a somewhat discerning glare. There's a good lesson for the laboring man of any color or race in this episode taken from Mr. Pickens' book: "A little Negro boy was hired by some white men to dig fish bait for them. The little fellow also liked fishing, and when he saw that he had secured such a fine lot of earthworms, he really longed to have them for his own hooks. He eyed the worms covetously as he handed them over to the white fisherman, and one of the men asked: "Well, what do you want for Dejoie of New Orleans, La. Unique favors such as hats, caps, whistles, etc., were distributed among the guests. The guests departed at 2 A. M. declaring they all enjoyed themselves immensely. this fine line of hait?" "The little fellow, vigorous by scratching his left ankle with his right great toe nail, came out of his silemma thus: "I'll accept half the omit!" In true metropolitan style, the Brooks Bros. Drug Store, 18th and Central Ave, conducted a monster sale last Friday and Saturday, when they conducted what is termed a 1-Cent Sale. All stock articles in various lines were put on sale and for only one cent more the same article was duplicated. The manager, Mr. Clarence Brooks, put out thousands of page posters enumerating the various bargains and on Friday and Saturday the customers came in by the hundreds to partake of the offerings which this progressive firm had advertised. We say progressive because of the fact that Brooks Bros. essayed an advanced step in their line of endeavor. And in their niche there were big things doing and no one would deserve ought in the procedure from any other big down town drug store. Bishop I. B. Scott will be the morning preacher at Wesley this Sunday morning. Hear the pastor's Labor sermon in the evening.

FOUND WANTING Four years ago the Colored voters en masse voted for the nomination of Governor Friend Richardson in protest against Governor Stephens, who failed absolutely to accord to them recognition in the affairs of government. After four years of faithful waiting they had to resort to the same tactics and for the same reason against the man they supported four years ago. Not all of them voted for C. C. Young, but it is certain and sure 80% of them voted for someone other than Richardson, for he had been weighed in the balances and found wanting. Therefore they are eternally on the job and hope that someday, oh, someday a real exponent of the people, as they hope of Lieutenant Governor Young will give to them the recognition which is their due.

It should be the duty of every legitimate newspaper no matter how mighty or humble, to unhold the law. We can say without fear of successful contradiction that we have ever maintained this position and for that reason we have from time to time called attention to flagrant violations of both the written and unwritten law. Quite twelve months ago, we called attention to the unlawful activities of the Ku Klux Klan in Watts, California. This hooded band of bushwhackers engages us not in physical combat, but essaved to punish us for our audacity in the courts. Their zeal went for naught when we won in the contest. Now at this time a man who calls himself a Messenger from the Holy Nazarine, when we call attention to his depredations to an unsophisticated public, attacks us physically, with this uncivilized and degenerate exhibition, he gets nowhere and loses at the bar of public opinion. Even had he been our physical superior, pummeled up or even killed us instead of putting on a hugging match and getting his finger in our mouth and eye; he would have but accentuated, the spirit of courage in others to come forth, stand up, denounce and put a curb upon all highbinders in the future. We held no malice against any individual then, nor do we now, but we stand firm for law, order and common decency and no matter who seeks to exploit a race of people and put them in a shameful light, we shall not fail to speak up in the premises, without fear or favor.

Why should not this spirit prevail in the holiday time of summer vacation. Paradoxical as it may sem, August, which breathes of rest and vacation, of fishing and boating and hiking, is just the time for reflection upon those things we dread most to think of, the miserable, with its sick and poor and unfortunate men, women and children. Yet, in the relaxation and joy which comes with summer and vacation, it is just the time to think of one's duty to one's fellow men, and of the largest contribution one give to the Community Chest in its forthcoming appeal. In the busy work-a-day life of men and women, there is little time to think of those in need, for there is so much to be done in one's own life. Therefore, in leisure one has really time to be sympathetic. Sympathy is akin to love, and love for one's brother in need can only be expressed in service to him, in order that he too may rise from out the ranks of the miserable and the dependent. The Community Chest, which financially maintains 143 charity, relief, social and welfare agencies, which in turn care for the community's sick, needy and unfortunate, is preparing for a huge appeal for funds, from November 9 to 23. Citizens must not lose sight of the fact that the Community Chest is one of the greatest social and civic assets of Los Angeles; that it is purely humanitarian, and that it is filling a need long felt in the community.

"Within the past few days, two celebrities of international fame have pessed from life's stage. One was a young man, the movie sheik, Valentino, whom women adored and jealous rivals despised. The other was Dr. Charles Elliott, former President of Harvard and one of the world's first citizens. The one was a sheik, a movie idol, handsome as a Greek god. He earned and squandered millions; he was spectacular and always in the lime light, and even in death he is headlined on the front pages of newspapers all over the United States, and column upon column of publicity is being given him. On the other hand, the death of Dr. Elliott has received but brief mention in the newspapers. In fact, the average individual is barely conscious that such a man as Dr. Elliot ever lived. Yet, for the past thirty years, this sage has wrought wonders in the educational, economic and political life of the American nation. He performed a constructive task for humanity. "In a few months, the public will have forgotten that Valentino ever lived, but the name and influence of Charles Elliott will grow more luminous with the years." "When truth gets a hearing, the fundamental things of life will be considered more than superficial. We shall come to realize that in every human being there is depths of the soul. When the world catches this great vision of truth, it will realize that the color of one's skin is a superficial, unconsequential thing, and that all men are brothers.

It appears to be a grayscale photograph with multiple frames or sections, but no discernible text or images can be identified. LOS ANGELES THE AUTO HUB Nothing is causing more regrets in autumn than the passing of summer and with it vacation time. Hundreds have enjoyed outings this year made possible in part by the auto. Los Angeles has been the hub and sent away and received more vacationists than any other burg. They have gone to Elsinore and San Diego in droves, to the Yosemite by the hundreds, to say nothing of San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Coronada and Yellowstone. They have come from Arizona, Mississippi, New York, Chicago, Denver and all parts of the West and departed sold on our climate, our hospitality and conitions in general. No few have arrived and decided to indefinitely or permanently remain. Now that we are on the eve of autumn, with its twitch of cool weather everyone is talking of the wonderful summer we have had and of their trip to somewhere next year, and it looks like a big time ahead with Elsinore leading the procession. Mr. James L. Buchanan of Sacramento left for his home Monday A. M. after enjoying three weeks, dining, resting and sight-seeing during which time several autos played no small part in making his stay pleasant. Azusa Gardens Casualties: One prominent attorney owning Cadillac was overhauled by "the law" for speeding; 2. Someone owning a Dodge bearing a Sacramento license reported a shrinkage of six gallons of gasoline, a Monrovia station saved their lives; 3. A seven-passenger car all ready to start for the never-to-be forgotten scene had both its lamps burned out and the owner saved an embarrassing position by borrowing a Ford from a benevolently inclined business woman; 4. Two hundred cars report arriving and departing on time. No accidents or mishaps. Wm. Mellon Watson who knows more about tennis than any other human aboard the City of Los Angeles rolled up to the curb in his auto and informed us he was in the real estate business. -00- As a result of the election several of the high micamus in politics are reported to have had their brains painted and ordered tailor-made from Hart the Tailor. -00- Wm. Pennington Taylor connected with the Postal Department in Sacramento, accompanied by his wife spent several days sight-seeing in our city. -00- Mr. and Mrs. Walter L. Gordon have been guests for ten days in Elsinore. They report having the time of their lives and look it. -00- The Union Picnic at Brookside was a huge success. Every auto in town not working was pressed into service healing folks, thickens and refreshments.

Putnam's Sons, 2 West 45th St. New York City. Price $2.50. By mail $2.60. "There are two Haiti. There is the Haiti that goes to market, that pounds clothes upon the stones of the river, that harvests the cane and the coffee, that revolutions and too many Presidents, may have an advisory Nordic Occupation. But the dream Haiti has nothing to do with this. It is the Haiti of drum and of dance." Blair Niles is able to see the whole of Haiti and reveals it to us in a book written as though it were a traveller's desultory story but that in reality is accurate, scholarly, with a clear picture of conditions today and a dramatic, historic background. When one is through, one has learned much of Toussaint L'Overture, of Dessalines, and of Christophe, whose marvellous citadel will before long become one of the show places of the world. Christophe is by all odds the most intriguing figure of the three with his great palace, his punctilious, inflexible court etiquette, and his passion-belief in the greatness of the African life. His many another brutal despot he left a magnificent monument, and when his countrymen against him, he shot himself in his palace that he might die a King. But the most fascinating part of the book is the dream Haiti, the Haiti of the drum and dance. Like so much that is interesting in this world, the Haiti of the drum and dance will before long pass away. The "Creation Dance", which the author vividly describes, is performed by the peasants so the long Voodoo drum, "the voice of which so profoundly stirs them that its use has been made illegal." But the law is a dead letter in parts of the island and if one is unostentatious and mingles with the crowd, one can still hear the drum and watch the primitive dance that is earlier in this world than man. Besides the sound of the drum there is the chorus of male and female voices and the "high, sweet treble of the fute." And all this in the superb, tropic starlight amid the trembling palms. Besides the history of the Islahid and the life of the peasants, we have an occasional glimpse of the former ruling class that has been superseded by the marines. A little is told of our intervention, its crudity and also its good side. That something of the sort would come seem invitable. Haiti has potential wealth and no wealthy spot can remain long unexploited. Nor can people be permitted to remain ignorant of the laws of health or unable to read the printed page. So little by little we shall see Haiti modernized, automobile roads will succeed donkey paths, and saxophones will take the place of drums. But before that happens we shall all want to visit the Island. Blair Naffle's book makes us long to pack our bags and take the next steamer to Port-au-Prince. We want to see the black women making their way with swinging stride to market, their produce on their heads, delighted at the prospect of a day's joyous clatter and the fun of bargaining. We want to hear the drum and watch the Africans in their strange, swaying dance. We want to see and hear this last before a sophisticated version comes to New York to be produced at Carnegie Hall. There is a brightness today about Haiti, despite its poverty, that Anglo-Saxon civilization will subdue. The Anglo-Saxon our writer says, to some extent "denatured the African. In the Spanish-American countries, a certain austerity in the conquerors subdued the Negro; but in Haiti the mingling of France with Africa was like giving to Africa a drink of champagne; with the result that the personality of Haiti is singularly vital." Let us make haste to get there before the fizz is gone. Speaks in High Praise of Colored Women's Convention By: REV. RIDDLE Pacodena, California, August 30, 1926. MR. EDITOR: Please give me space in your paper to briefly express myself respecting these women of Oakland, California, August 1, 1926. First, I have seen all National Conventions and Associations of the Race, religious and secular, of all denominations in this country, but it has never been my pleasure to witness a more refined, intellectual and cultured body than this club woman of the race, having as their motto, "Lifting as we Climb." Second, the State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs were hostess to the National Association, and right well did they do their part in entertaining this noble body of women. Third, Mrs. Corinna Bush Hicks, president of the state, deserves special mention in this connection. Her address of welcome was delivered in fine style and choice language. So generous and eloquent was this wel- come address that it brought forth greatest program ever held in the heavy applause from the large south state. The state presented Mrs. ones and high seconium of praise and Hicks with a three-panel mirror. The comment from the president of the presentation speech was given by Mrs. National Association, who continued L. Smith of Oakland who stated Mrs. to say this was the greatest coneau. Hicks was worthy of anything else ever held in the National seal or done in her behalf, and that Calli they had never been so royally enter- forms was proud of her and the valu- tained in any skies before. We are able work she has given the state in proud of the manner in which this, these nineteenth bear of faithful service. Mrs. Hicks uphold it as she then. meeting committee. After the state meeting she held a two days' state meeting competing the business of the convention instead of four days an hour before. She ruled her convention with an audience. Her annual message was a masterpiece of English, concise and filled with wholesome recommendations that brought forth such complimentary messages as the convention. At the close of her address she was presented with the Past President's Pin by Mrs. Etta V. Murley, Past President, in a very complimentary manner, who cited Mrs. Hicks had put over the Are You In Need Of Money? If your mortgage is due and you wish to have it renewed I can serve you.

Upton Upton's Matrimonial Chart ARTICLE TWO If you have been reading the Clatter, you are naturally looking for me to keep the promise I made last week which was to name five Pullman Porters who are eligible to become some sweet woman's slave, providing she can show him a deep point; so here goes— We will take the Lark first, which is the best train running between Los Angeles and San Francisco. We have on that train train for your approval: Mr. S. A. Koppgood, drifting all alone in this cruel world, with no one to bring him his bedroom slippers, or take his check for pay day. What a pitty, poor man! that you should be neglected in such a manner. He is a man of unreproachable character and deserves no such treatment. Disposition as follows: Very positive, in anything he undertakes, must be shown to be convinced, good provider and strictly a home man. 2nd—J. Montgomery. Disposition: Steady, sober, but rather tight, believes in holding a dollar until the Eagle hollars. He's my friend! a man who, if he gets a woman that can stand him, will eventually be worth plenty money. Sri-J. Ponder. Considered handsome in Atlanta, Georgia; makes good money, but you have to stand over him with a club in order to get any of it; crazy about breaking up his essex. Good man for a woman that has a strong will power. Is over twenty years in the service, and eligible to retire at any, time on a Pullman Co. pension, very likely to do so if he gets married, thus becoming a burden on your hands for the balance of his life, which will not be long, once he is retired. Your only hope is to have him heavily insured—take him or leave him. 4th—Johnny Moore. Willing if you can get him to stand still long enough to pop the question. Steady worker, and very fast, but likes to keep late hours, somewhat of a sheikh and very popular. If you think you can stand the pressure of living with a popular man, he is your best bet. Will take any amount of abuse, but don't crowd hi a. 6th—M. E. Jackson. Very rough and hard boiled. Believes strictly in M. E. Jackson supremacy. In the habit of knocken "em down before breakfast, and can best be handled with a blunt instrument, black jack or lead pipe would be the most soothing. Exceedingly stubborn and now eligible for a Pullman Co. pension. Very fond of raw meat for supper. Has great ambitions to be like officer Sheffield, but is too short.

Tell you the reason. Its editor needed a typewriter, a course in spelling, composition and rhetoric, journalism and a dictionary. Then the little woman at home finished I show some speed in the way of a pay check. Folks, I'M back. In starting once again we feel as good as Mr. Jack Dempsey after he drew no color line, feared no man, and would bet a roll of money equal to the war debt he could put away "that certain party." We have been testing the line to see who was the best entry for executive of California in the coming race. Every newspaper of any gate has a perfect man, each man wears his own collar, has no machine to take orders from, and favors everything that you think he should favor. I honestly close my eyes and mark. No I will ask my boss which one carries the most space in our paper and take him for my own for he is a sure winner.

Negro in Sports Discussed By Nation Editor New York City, Aug. 27. According to the editor of Nation, the Negro athletes' only alternative is to develop their own associations and organizations. Discussing this subject editorially, the 'editor declared: "One hundred Negro tennis players fought for the Rhetta cup at St. Louis in the tenth annual Negro tennis tournament of the United States. Why should these tennis players be segregated in a race tournament? Is national tennis a white man's burden? Why should not the best of the Negro players be entered in the national tournaments at Forest Hills? Many Northern colleges make a contribution to racial understanding by welcoming Negro players in football, baseball and truck; last year the University of Chicago had a Negro tennis play on its team. But in professions baseball, none-collegiate tennis, and most other sports Negroes are barred from competition with whites. The major leagues never admit even the most prestigious colored baseball player in the National Law Tennis Association is made up exclusively of white members. Even in pujolism Dempsey has been able to use the color line to rival meeting the most powerful rival, who happens to be a Negro. The colored athletes have only one alternative, in developing sporting events of their own. There are already Negro baseball circuits throughout the country; near Westfield, New Jersey, the Negroes of New York have their own country club and golf course, and a major club in opening near Boston."
