Mrs. Mary McCleod Bethune Felicitates Former President, Mrs. Corrine Bush Hicks ```markdown ``` My Dear Friend: The doors of our school opened two days ago. Everything moved off quietly and harmoniously and already the teachers and pupils, young and old, are fitting in their grooves and I am now able to breathe freely and write you, to truly express to you my appreciation for your kindness is no easy task. I was and am overwhelmed with the hearty reception given me throughout the Golden West and tenderly. I hold you in my memory with a feeling which will help to cheer me when the clouds hang low and the days are darkened. There ar estill many pressing duties which must hold my attention for a few days longer, but I shall be indeed glad to hear a word from you, and I promise you herewith to answer you, telling of our return. We must nevermore lose each other. My best regards to all who ask for me I send, and when kneeling at the the throne of God, I pray remember me in your prayer. Sincerely yours, MARY McCLEOD BETHUNE, President. Famous White Dr. Evans Discusses Negro Hair in Chicago Tribune Dr. Evans a famous white physician of Chicago in a Tribune article recently expressed himself as follows, "I am convinced of the possibilities in the line of growing hair, through the success I have seen colored girls attain, by faithfully washing, greasing, combing and brushing, some using one kink removes some others. I have never seen it demonstrated under the microscope as to whether the flattened hair shaft of the hair is made round by this, but I do know it can be combed straight and remain straight even when formly short, and stubborn." H adds that "when treated properly it is long, lustrous, glossy and possesses much more tickness and vigor than the hair structure of the white." "This," he says, "means to Negroes better jobs, new fields of employment, higher wages and better social standing—so it is not only commendable but necessary to improve one's hair. The Diamond Hair Straightener and Diamond Hair Pomade manufactured by Mr. A. J. Allen at his laboratories at 1069 E. Jefferson St., is endorsed by eminent physicians, like Dr. Evans as being the only articles that will bring the best results quickly, safely and at a reasonable price.

P.) Gainesville, Fl., Sept. 22.—Col J. D, Adkins, state's attorney of Putnam County, in outlining the acqusitions he will lay before the October Circuit Court, told the story of a pretty owner of a beauty shop, a white woman, who was taken naked by a mob of thirteen white, and despite her pleading, whipped. He charges that the men who whipped this woman are responsible for the flogging of a number of whites and blacks. The state's attorney is also going to ask for a first degree murder indictment against the white woman in connection with the death of Willie, who was shot to death as he was bringing his mother back to Palatka after she had been beaten by a mob of white men.

Mr. Gray accompanied Roland Hayes in the trenches of France. The admission will be 50 cents and the money will go to the N. A. A. C. P. to appeal the Swimming Pool case. Georgians Lynch Anoth- (By A. N. P.) Americus, Ga., Sept. 25.—Authorities here have so far been unable to obtain any information to dispute the theory that S. E. Ipptman, a white mechanic, who was arrested for an alleged attack on a young white girl, had not been lynched after he was taken from Marion County deputies who were taking him to jail. Sheriff Cosby of Webster County said he had arrested Pittman, Thursday and had given him into custody of the Marion County deputy sheriff. He said this deputy, together with a companion, left Preston during Thursday night and traveled the direct road via Church Hill toward Buena Vista. Later, Sheriff Gosby said he received information that the Marion County deputies had reached Buena Vista with their prisoner. Becomes Despondent; Takes Poison (By A. N. P.) Washington, D. C., Sept. 22—Miss Nilman. Bundy, a young woman twenty-three years old, became dependent and attempted to commit suicide by taking poison while in the grounds of the United States Soldiers' Home. She was given first aid treatment at the Soldiers' Home Hospital and later taken to Emergency Hospital, where physicians pronounced her condition not serious. Florida Governor Acts Against Mob Rule (By A. N. P.) Tallahassee, Fla., Sept. 27.—sixty three recent floggings, added to the general spirit of unrest created by lynching and nightriding in this section of the state have forced Governor John W. Martin to issue a statement which is meant to hold to strict accountability law enforcement officers of Florida who permit mobs to rule. Shetlin R. J. Hancock of Putnam County was recently warned that if he did not get the upper hand of the mob, he would be filled with other men until a man came who was strong enough to cope with the spirit of lashings existing. The suitability of proclaiming martial law was also indicated. The names of the hostesses for the whist tournament to be given at Chrysan's Tavern, Thursday evening, October 14th by the Auxiliary of Basil A. Bowle Post will be published next week.

THEY WERE: ```markdown ``` DR. ALBERT BAUMANN Treasurer of Building Fund Blessings of Segregated Schools By WILLIAM PICKENS (For th Associated Negro Press) Arguments seem to count little with some people. But certainly facts ought to count with any sane man. Those who want to find out for certain just how blessed it is to be in "their own" separate schools in the South, or elsewhere, should read the article in September Crisis in the schools of Georgia; Georgia is a typical southern state; segregation is well established there. Just let any Negro "adherer" who is trying to lead his people into separate school systems in Ohio, Illinois, or anywhere else, read those facts and figures in the September Crisis and see what he is leading toward. Read these figures on page 355, or in any other page of that remarkable disclosure of facts and see that the "separate" Negro schools in Georgia, where the colored people and children are nearly half the total population, get less than one dollar out of ten for their education. The proportion is much worse still if the Crisis had counted the money paid to white school superintendents, supervarsors, and to other state and local administrators of the schools. All of these management and mismanagement schemes and expenses go to the "Where there are supervised schools ```markdown ``` Under the spirited leadership of Father Cleghorn, Dr. A. H. Hammondville, chairman of the women's office, and Mrs. Nelle V. Cenner, chairman of the women's division, the selection of team captains and workers for the St. Philip's Building Fund Campaign is going forward rapidly. Since the first announcement that there was to be a campaign to help Father Cleghorn build the new church he needs so badly, his project has received hearty commendation from all over the city and from nearby cities. Father Cleghorn's friends are legion, and the prospect of a new church edifice, which will be a credit to the Race throughout the country, has been contemplated with pleasure. Voluntary offers to assist in collecting the funds are being received daily, and the group of men and women who will do this important work will be the most representative in the city of Los Angeles. The social, business professional, political and religious life of the city is thoroughly represented. At no time in the history of the Race in this state has such an organization been conceived and built, and the success of the project is assured. The badge of this work will be a mark of distinction and the reward for this service such as every a sort of excuse to say to the outside world: "Yes, we have schools for the Negroes. The only reason why they are not up with the white people in intelligence and education, is their natural inferiority, you see." They know that they are lying, and that in truth they are so robbing and limiting the Negro schools that even if blacks were superior by nature, they would still have to remain inferior in educational attainments. Where there are separate schools for Negroes, those Negroes enjoy just one equality in the school system: the equal right to pay the taxes for the support of the whole school system, and mainly to educate white people. Signal Honor for Major Brooks (By A. N. F.) Washington, D. C., Sept. 27—During the first foray of the funeral of Martin Arthur Brooks, which was held at the St. Mary's Protestant Episcopal Church, of which he had been a vestyman for over thirty years, the executive offices of the white house were closed as a mark of the profound respect in which he was held by the chief executive. The executive offices at Paul Smith's, N. Y., the summer White House, were also closed. President Cloyd sent a special representative to the funeral. The Rev. L. M. Nicholls officiated at the funeral anyone. Full military honors were accorded to Major Brooks. Dark forest the Marty Widow at Chicago Pastor Tells Texans Slavery Was Divinely Inspired (By A. N. P.) Ft. Worth, Texas., Sept. 14.—Junius C. Austin, pastor of Pilgrim Baptist Church of Chicago, filled the pulpit of J. Frank Norris, pastor of the first Baptist Church of Fort Worth, Sunday night and before a congregation of 8,000 white people, proclaimed "that the slavery of the American Negro was divinely inspired." "You American whites," he declared, "played a noble part in response to the demands of the Dyne Program." The audience was deeply moved and voiced its approval of the black minister's stand. Comment has been rife all over Texas as the speech was widely broadcasted, the Sunday evening services of Rev. Norris' church being a regular part of the Radio program here. Rev. Norris, who is widely known throughout the country, as an evangelist, gained widespread notoriety recently when he shot and killed a man in his study. Doctor of Dentistry Opens Dental Parlors Dr. Euclid M. Pruitt, a graduate of the U. S. G.

Just as we predicted the Swimming Pool Case was decided against us after the primary election when it was too late to register our protest at the polls. Mayor Cryer's Playground Commission, however, took it for,granted that the suit would be in their favor when a letter from the Secretary was read before our Committee stating that they were carrying out the instruction of the Court in restricting the Central Avenue Pool to Negroes only. On investigation this statement was denied by the Court. Those "Gentlemen" who continually boast of their political influence and high connection with the powers that be, who are paid to strangle every movement for the good of the race and barter our birthright for a few dollars, will they come forth and protest against the City Administration for this injustice? Or will they crawl back to their masters to get more blood money to stem the avalanche of our protest? Colored men and women now in the time for organization and unity. Join in one great movement to use your ballot to save the remnant of your rights that is left. Do not wait till Jim Grow policies have stripped you of every governmental citizenship.

PLAYGROUNDS WELL PATRONIZED Nature studies conducted at the municipal playgrounds through the summer and arousing the interest of thousands of children in botany bird life and kindred subjects are to be continued through the autumn under direction of Mrs. Estelle Hart Robbins. A schedule of classes that does not conflict with school hours on regular days and will have left with the children sufficient "tasks" in nature study to last them until her subsequent visit. Not only children but parents have been greatly interested in this feature of playground activities. 1 W. S. Scarborough, late president of Wilberforce University, Doctor of various degrees, and nationally and internationally known as the author of Greek language text books, died at his home, Wilberforce, September 9th. Doctor Scarborough was one of the best known scholars of America. He was a member of numerous learned societies. Among them many that rank high in the world of letters and scientific research. He was born in Macon, Ga., studied and was graduated from Oberlin College. He was the president of Wilberforce University for twelve years. In the political life of Ohio he was a power. His suggestions and advice were eagerly sought. The late president Harding appointed him as an assistant in farm studies in the department of agriculture. Some folks become obsessed with an idea and be it ever so ridiculous try to foist it on others. Los Angeles seems to be burdened with some of that class. Two-thirds of the migrants who make that city their adopted home, left the South because of inferior conditions. Chief among them was the lack of educational advantages. Now, according to reports, a group of the kind that cannot shake off that "Jim Crow Cloak" are petitioning the Board of Education to separate the races in the schools. "We want colored teachers," is their plea, although Los Angeles has any number of colored teachers who have qualified and are NOW TEACHED in the public schools. The people of California are not, do not, and will not give welcome to any persons who bring such perversive ideas into the community. Better that they would stav DOWN THERE as fuel for the MOB. From all accounts by the press, that greatly heralded demonstration of the 3 K's, held in the city by the Potomac, was a veritable FROST. The hundreds of thousands dwindled down to bare thousands, and their descent on the Capitol of the Nation was marked by the little interest manifested by the citizens of Washington. As a demonstration of political strength it was an abject failure. Perhaps Lloyd George had the Klan in mind when he said, "You cannot found but you can founder a party on personal squabbles." The Klan has been torn by personal squabbles from within and that in spite of its boasted Americanism. It was founded on hate, which is like a recurring decimal; you can spend a life time writing its figures, but as you write each figure becomes of less value. The Klan is busy writing the "recurring decimals." 000-0 In St. Louis, Mo., they captured a fellow who blacked his face and then assaulted white women and children. He confessed to crimes running over a number of years, which he had committed in Louisiana and for which a number of Negroes suffered. The information comes that in South Carolina the terms of the county schools in the rural districts will be cut from five to three months. This does not apply to the WHITE SCHOOLS. And yet, there are idiots who, in the North and West, advocate "Jim Crow" education. We are burdened with self-imposed leaders who are a mercenary lot, and care more for the DOLLAR than for their fellow men. We are blind followers of blind leadership. We are too glad to shift the burden of men's responsibility onto women and pass them to women the path they and. Blind followers of blind leaders just as long as we are not shocked from our lethargy by some astoningly atrocious act we plied along contented with our lot. No difference if it be following the leadership of some fanatical religions call or hulled by Siren song of some aching politician, it's all the same until the awakening comes and then it might be too late.

PHYSICIAN AND SURGEON X-RAY ELECTROTHERAPY "A FEAR IN THE SOUTH "Infrequency of Attacks On White Women By Northeast "To the New York Herald-Tribune: "In your last issue of September 11, Theilah Cuddlip Grosvenor, a Southern white woman, says that white women in the South dare not go unarmed out of calling distance from their houses for fear of Negro attack. The statement somewhat begs the question. Even if it can be shown that tens of thousand, of Southern white women are alone with colored men for hours and even for days without ever being attacked, still that would not prove that they are not afraid. Therefore all that logic can do is to show the unreasonableness of this fear if it exists. In the South there are more than five million Negro men and more than fifteen million white women. In the last five years the number of criminal assaults (including all the alleged and all the "attempted" assaults) by these men against these women averaged twelve a year. In accomunity where all the officers of law are white, all power in the hands of whites and all newspaper reports made by the whites it is reasonable to suppose that every case of violent attack by a black man against a white woman is brought to light. The fear, then, is not based on the actual danger or frequency of the attacks, but it is due to the American color-policy caused by the-playing up of this insignificant record of the black man. These sixty attacks by colored men got more feet of newspaper space during these five years than was given to any 600 or 6,000 similar attacks by white men. Besides; frankly, the Negro is an oppressed people, especially in the South. Men as well as women readily conceive fear of those whom they oppress. In the British West Indies the blacks are the most consequently a handful of English whites among a multitude of the blackest blocks have no fear. So far we have granted the existence of this alleged fear. But we know white women, who have lived for years in the South and escaped the enthrallment of its color-psychosis, who have gone where they pleased through the country and among the black fold without fear. BOOK CHAT By: Mary White Orrington Chairman, Board of Directors of the N. A. A. C. P. "ON THE TRAIL OF NEGRO POLK-SOONGS" By Borothy Scarborough. Published by The Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Mass. Price $3.50. I must confess to being somewhat late in reviewing this book. I have ben deterred by the fact that it has no index and one has a right to dread a book of research that is not indexed. However, once the first plunge is taken all dread disappears. The book is written in a sprightly, entertaining manner, and if one has to index it oneself, so much the greater familiarity with the cotext. Wisely, it does not deal with the Spirituals but confines itself to less familiar material though Talley, Odium and Johnson and others have been over a large part of Miss Scarborough's field. The volume contans 208 songs, 106 of them with the music, and many variations. The author has been years making the collection. She tells of how she has "laifed on side steps, hung guilfully over garden fences, broiled before cook stoves and ironing beards". She went into colored churches and colored homes, she even beguiled old church members to sing long forgotten and forbidden reels! She so bullied the students of Baylor University, Waco, Texas, that they facetiously declared she had arranged that they should not pass their finals unless they procured new folk-songs for her. Evidently she enjoyed her search. "If weary financiers but knew the fun there is in it," she declares, "they would quit their desks to go in search of song." And if they cannot go themselves she suggests that they endow chairs for folk songs in the universities. "There is no closed season, though if collectors do not hurry up the season will be closed forever as far as many predicuous old songs are concerned." The chapters tell of Negro Ballads, Dance Songs or R&Bs, Children's Game Songs Songs about Animals, Work Songs, Ballad Songs and Blues. There is even a chapter on the Negro Bent in Transmitting the Traditional Songs and Ballads. It is impossible for any but an expert to take the 'importance of the material Miss Reeborough has gathered. As a scholar she must have done her best to determine whether the Negro song in Negro or an adaptation of a white song, Parimut, at times it is impossible to know. It was pleasing to see that many college goals of the late century grew in origin. Some of these third early financiers who could no shadow folk song as their guild used to sing to market their products. The masters marketed the children's sister. They were famous as a "granhopper" singing on the most potente vinyard laugh when he came to the fenced yard but when he came back. They sang the solitude like the dark moon and the sun by "puff Blissin' on you." They Right clark will ye mourn use", then comes the laughter material to me and she has a number of good work songs. But it is the grammars of the music that makes the book not only a expository for the folk lore student but a delightful thing. For all of us to have. Have are over and play and work to them. How delightful be a child to hammer while he stings." He build do ak? Noah build it, cut his timber down." Miss Scarborough has done much for her section of the country. When a Negro chorus appeared on the platform of Bayer University to sing folk music it was greeted with a ricof enthusiasm. After repeated encores, the program was allowed to continue only if the Negroes returned and sang again at the last. One is grateful for all Miss Scarborough does. But when she speaks of "awakened interest in Negro problems of education and service" and in illustration notes that *Carmelia Hall* was lately packed to hear singers from Hampton and Tuskegee, one is amused. The Fisk Jubilee Singers awakened such interest in Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, nearly sixteen years ago. Hundreds of thousands of people in the North knew the Spirituals fore this century dwelled, and they knew them because of the white Northern teachers who went into Southern Negro schools and ostracism. They had a beautiful volume of Spirituals at Calcutta Colored School twenty years ago. Miss Scarborough had to study at Cambridge to find out what was at her back door. But she has generously given the Negro his due, and we rejoice at her in bringing him into his own.

THAT COUGH To all purchasers of lots in Eureka Villa we are pleased to announce the completion of your trust on August 24th. It required nearly three months to put your deal in shape so that we could proceed to protect you against all foreclosures and law suits, ultimately giving you your titles through escrow. It has been a very trying job but an extremely pleasant one because every one has cooperated so nicely. It is true that you were in a bad condition, should we use the expression of those who live in fear, but who need live in fear no longer, because you have passed that stage and to those promoters and salesmen who pioneered Eureka Villa, cannot be given too much praise for having struggled courageously on to where it was necessary to work out new means of proceeding further. Courage and faith have worked out that way for you through the undersigned who is nothing more than a medium through which we hope to build a paradise in those canyons by exercising more courage and faith, backed up by concentrated effort and much thinking-right thinking. We must think harmoniously. Those who stop to dwell in the past with malice and hatred and with criticism and accusation of their fellow men—oh well—they just stopped, that's all—they make no progress whatever. So in reference to your previous conditions or predicament at Eureka Villa, just promise yourself to forget the mistakes of others in the past, it matters not who made them, and let us all together press on to greater achievements in the future. When we shall have finished with Eureka Tract, it will be yours for keeps. We are trying to really fix it for the sake of posterity. The only person who stands to lose will perhaps be the undersigned, but as a group it will always be yours. In two months time we have raised for the development of our tract $100,000.00, in units of $20,000.00. To operate under this plan of procedure we will be forced to get rid of your present contracts either by cancellation or deed, and we prefer of course to give your deeds, and to figure in every possible way to prevent a cancellation. To avoid cancellation we shall extend your time limit to October 1, 1926, by which time any of you will be able to get your title, pro- vided you are in position to demand the same. For the duration of this extension we make you the following proposition in order to encourage you to pay up by September 20,1926,we will discount your balance to 25%. Should you pay up by September 25,1926,you will get a discount of 20%,and by October 1,1926 a 101/2 discount. Now folks, remember you must do your part and always be sure that you are right and have lived up to your obligations before you can demand the other fellow to do his.I want everyone to get in a position to demand a deed and title by October 1,1926,and therefore have offered to make these big concessions to help you. You will understand this better bye and bye. We have no secrets in this new deal. Our contracts, agreements and trust can be seen at any time by those who might be skeptical yet interested and willing to do. Come into our office if you wish at any time, and we will be glad to show you every courtesy. At the same time we beg your indulgence, because this deal has been like a Chinese Crossword Puzzle—and remember we have nearly 800 of you to straighten out—co-operation will do it—fighting among yourselves will destroy you, not us. Water? Yes! We have brought in a wonderful well for domestic purposes. We are told that it is the best drinking water in the valley. We rebored and put a 10 inch casing in the old wind mill well, and have 37 feet of water standing in same at present. Those of you who remember the old wind mill will know the meaning of this. We are trying to get to press with this information and cannot say more to you this time, but get in touch with Nellie Turner, AX. 5008; she will be glad to explain and help you to get your payments straight. i is HONOR MANAGING Ronee ny WYO MEIC RE SE We have here in this ¢ity a sturdy band of business women who have ot ganized and have for some years con dueted,an organisation mown ax th Progressive Business Women's Club This is no butterfly or social organiz atfon, but is centering at all times it efforts for better and more business, ‘The club has ie its greatest en- ergy in acquiring land and both agri- cultural and city income property and we are told is making commendable progress. ‘Mrs, Clara C. Hulbert fs" president of this club and Mrs. L. D. Pruitt, Secretary. It was this organization which bethought themselves to give to one’ of their fellow citizens who had demonstrated her business capacity agenuine, sincere and real send-off on the eve of her departure for an ex- tended visit to the East, visiting her ‘ mother, relatives and for a much needed ‘rest, and as a result Eagle Hall swarmed with the members and friends who had been invited by the club for the occasion of honoring Mrs. Charlotta A. Bass. . ‘The Hall was profusely decorated for the occasion with palms and vari- gated flowers. The ladies were beau- tifully. gowned and indeed it was an Inspiring seene when Mirs. MeMickens called the assembled members and their guests to order and introduced Mrs. Pruitt, who in a few well chosen and forceful remarks gave a brief but intefesting history of the organization and accomplishments of the club, Mrs. Clara Hulbert, the president, was then presented and gave an inspiring address_of weleome for the honored guest and declared it an honor indeed for the-organization to recognize not only a foremost business woman, but | true womanhood as typified by ‘Mrs. Bass as well. The program proper as presented by Mrs. Hulbert was such outstanding talent as Mme. Marie Overstreet- Jackson, leading voice instructor and director; Mrs. Ethel Winston who charmed with a reading; the latest product and sensational Bariton, Mr. Fred Skinner, a former pupil of Prof. Feuchinger of Chicago, dean of the perfect voice; a masterly address by Attorney Willis O. Tyler in which he paid a high tribute to the honored guest. This being the attorney’s first public appearance since the primary himself received a flattering re- ception for the very splendid race he made in the 73rd Assembly District. The Ladies Quartette rendered two very pleasing numbers one of which was “Since You Went Away;” the per- | jonnel was Miss Clotilde Bennett, Miss Ella Van Vactor, Mrs. Fred Skinner | ahd Mrs, Clara Hulbert. Mrs. Luve- || niu Patterson and Mr. L. Edwards. were the accompanists for the even- | ng. ' And then Mrs. Bass beautifully res- | yonded to the many words spoken and | xpressed her appreciation which | words failed her to speak for the gen- | ine sincerity and devotion extended | | o her. At the conclusion of Mrs. Bass’ ad- |! ress Miss Gertrude Chrisman step- |! ed forward and on behalf of the club | ® resented Mrs. Bass with a huge and jeautiful box, the contents of which | § vere designed to keep her cheerful on | I er way. ‘s 4 ‘The club has been the reeipient of nany special comments complimen- | F ary to the manner in which they con- | © ucted this very splendid affair.

What? and laid above my worgifless heart.! |a false conception ever eauae innne. The main questions which most o! our readera Have asked’ geem to be “Well, what is a “false, conception” what ‘causes it, how cah a’ womar think she is ready to be delivered of a nine month’s baby, when in reality she is not pregnant at all? / Let us take these queries one b3 one. A false conception is a condition usually of the mind. The pelvis. ani abdomen or stomach is usually entire- ly free from the presence of ariy fetus ér baby. Does the woman have a tu- | mor? She may or she may not. Gen- erally she does not. The “baby” which | she thinks is inside and which she-ac- j tually believes.she feels moving usu- {ally is gas. Nothing more and noth- ing less in the majority of cases, and after a doctor examines them,’ who really is able to tell that. they’ posi- tively are not pregnant and tells them this; then after the first shock of disappointment—usually the stomach, which has been distended, out like a gas bag; goes down and gets flat like it normally should be. WHY IS A FALSE CONCEPTION DANGEROUS. For two reasons. First, because in a very few instances a tumor or some other serious pathological condition exists and is the cause of the exis- tence of the wrong idea. Second, the false conception is ‘dangerous’ be- cause it usually occures in women who greatly desire children, the very greatness of their desire’ for _ little ones makes them the more easily be- lieve themselves pregnant. And when this great hope is disappointed it may do a great deal of harm. Some women never feel the same after a false con- ception, And those who have tumors and believe it to be a baby, put off the removal of the tumor with dangers to themselves. - INSANITY FOLLOWING A FALSE CONCEPTION Last’ week a white patient from a very intelligent family came into my ffice and stated that she-had been at the bedside 91 yi Piel ered ee Ba ar PED that She was so muth with my work that she had cme all the way from Edendale for $e to take ner case.

Thére might T find the hand I'd kissed months hence and plunged with hatred into the mysterious pool. In:Sicily I woke oné night in dread, I called aloud for he who was no more. I needed but her hands upon ‘my head, her body sweet, but fainted by my side. I rose and walked to Arethusa’s bed. The) liquid music semed to hold enchantment, and I stopped and windered| if it meh not be—when,-lo, I saw in the black whirling ‘vortex, of the deep, her hand restored, to me.

LIBERTY'S BIG MEMBERSHIP CONTEST Los Angeles has lower taxes than most large cities in the United States. Los Angeles' present tax rate is lower now than it was 15 years ago, and lower than at any time since 1922. These facts have been obtained by the Traffic Comission through City Controller John S. Myers. They show, conclusively, that Los Angeles property owners are at unduly burdened, despite the large amount of public improvements that are necessary to a fast growing city. In 1912, the Los Angeles city-tax rate was $1.60 for each $100 of assessed valuation. This year, the rate is $1.63. The rates for the different years, as shown by figures in the office of City Controller John S. Myers, are as follows: 1912, $1.60; 1918, $1.60; 1914, $1.60; 195, $1.60; 1916, $1.45; 1917, $1.52; 1918, $1.45; 1919, $1.51; 1920, $1.60; 1921, $1.45; 1922, $1.26; 1923, $1.58; 1924, $1.63; 1925, $1.54; 1926, $1.58. Los Angeles is tenth of the big American cities in regard to tax rates. In order to correctly compare this city's taxes with others, it was necessary to place all on an equal plane in the matter of assessed valuation. Los Angeles, for instance, pays taxes on a rate based on 50 per cent of actual valuation, while Boston pays on a 100 per cent assessed valuation. Chicago pays the highest tax rate of any city in the United States, it being $31.50 on each $1,000 of property. Baltimore, Pittsburgh, New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Milwaukee, Buffalo and Detroit all pay a higher tax rate than Los Angeles. In making this comparison, all Los Angeles taxes are included, such as city county and flood control taxes. Los Angeles pays $18.85 for each $1,000 of property. Cleveland, St. Louis and San Francisco are the only large cities with a smaller rate and these are only slightly less. A WORD OF APPRECIATION A glorious day at St. Paul, it was a feast of Sincerity and Fellowship throughout the day. At 3:30 o'clock Rev. C. H. Hampton in company with Dr. Wm.

We are told that after voluminous briefs had been filed and a wait of six months or more that this learned judge from the sticks simply announced that the motion is denied. We are certain and sure that this case was deserving of more consideration than it received, it affects many thousand of people who are taxpayers and loyal citizens and any jurist no matter how exalted he may be, when deciding a case of such moment as this one, owes it, both to the people and himself, to give some reasons for whatever decision he may give.

The proprietor very obligingly furnished the same and served them. They had hardly started to eat, when in comes the Vice Squad. They questioned the two young men, found they represented themselves as working men. These officers then went over to the proprietor, so we are informd, and told him that unless he kept the d——"niggers" out of there they were going to close the place up. We certainly appreciate this as a high-handed method by our police and something should be done about this sort of procedure.

The proposition of making a record in the Police Department by wholesale arrests among one group exclusively and winking at petty crime among another group is pernicious and diabolical. We have, however, right there in Los Angeles, a newspaper which declares this situation exists. Our contemporary, the Pacific Defender is making, so it says, a painstaking investigation in the premises. All violaters of the law, be they white, black, green or yellow, should look alike to the Vice Squad or any other law enforcing agency of this or any other community. As a matter of fact our attention has been called from time to time about the preponderance of trivial arrests made of the members of the Colored race and liken it unto the practice which prevails in the Southland. We would suggest that our welfare organizations, civic and religious bodies, would do well to look into this charge and if true, seek the needed relief. It has been revealed that in the state of Georgia where the heel of oppression rests strongly upon its Colored citizens and where the population is upon more even terms, crime among the whites far outnumber-that among the Colored and how is it therefore in Los Angeles the Colored people with only one-tenth of the population furnish 75 per cent of the offenders as claimed by the paper mentioned above? It is unbelievable and a reflection upon the Police Department if this condition exists. MONEY TO BURN! $562,751,466! That was our nation's fire-loss in 1923. National Board of Fire Underwriters, on the subject. $562,751,466!—that was the increase in annual fire-loss since 1923. Who pays this tremendous annual loss only the owners of the property de- miles of the 20,000 persons who die in the accident of the county pays his share. For this loss, exceeding half a bill. That was our nation's fire-loss in 1925, according to the National Board of Fire Underwriters, the country's authority in the subject. 1925. 12. 21—that was the increase over 1924. The increase in annual fire-loss since 1923 is $403,759,969! Who pays this tremendous annual tribute to destruction? Not only the owners of the property destroyed. Not only the families of the 20,000 persons who die in fires every year. Every resident of the country pays his share. For this loss, exceeding half a billion dollars annually, is the keeps insurance-rates high. These destructive fires—one kilo-house burns in our country every four minutes day night—are what make it necessary for the taxpayers to train fire departments. The national fire-loss is a national problem. For that reason, President Coolidge has set apart this week for public instruction as to the causes of fires and means of preventing them. Just what this half-billion-dollar drain on our national wealth means may be visualized this way—Uncle Sam, in taxing the incomes of his people, allows an exemption of $200 for every child. That is exempted, presumably, because it is sufficient to keep a child in school for a year. On this basis, it appears that THE MONEY WE WASTE BY FIRES EVERY YEAR WOULD KEEP MORE THAN 2,000,000 CHILDREN IN SCHOOL. Yet we go on wasting it—for it is waste because it can be prevented. Insurance experts, fire department officials and engineers firmly state that 75 per cent of the fires that cause this tremendous totalall loss are preventable. How? By being careful with matches, cigars and cigarettes? Certainly; that would help. By keeping chimneys clean so that they don't throw burning embers upon roofs? Surely; that's a wise precaution. These measures—all measures of common-sense carefulness are necessary. But caution alone won't save our nation $562,751,466. What is more needed is precaution. The reason why buildings burn is that they are built so they will burn. The fundamental way to prevent their burning is to "BUILD SO IT WON'T BURN." This doesn't necessarily mean that the average home-owner must adopt expensive masonry constructions to substitute the traditional American wood-frame house. It means to build wisely with wood—use wood but protect it at its most valuable points. The development of modern building materials has made this possible at a cost no greater than that of unprotected construction. For example: A wood frame can be sheathed with incombustible mineral in place of inflammable wood sheathing. On the inside of the frame a gypsum lath—literally a rock lath—can be used in place of tinder-like wood lath. An artistic and beautiful exterior finish can be put on the house through the use of colored stucco. Or brick or stone may be used. The roof can be of slate, asbestos, cement tile or other fire-resistant material. Insulation and fire-stopping can be installed in one operation between walls, floors and over ceilings through the use of dry-fill gypsum. This is the path to an appreciable reduction in our enormous annual fire loss and protection for yourself and your family: FIRE-SAFE CONSTRUCTION. How much money have you to burn?

KNIGHTS OF PYTNIAS EASTERN AND WESTERN HEMISPHERES—SUCCEED IN FINANCING THEIR OWN TEMPLE PROJECT. The novel financing scheme concerning the Pyttinian Headquarters Building (Buggins Building, Corner of Breggs and Washington streets, Boston, Mass.) of the Knights of Pyttians, Eastern and Western Hemispheres, has been unpublished. The property was purchased June 1, 1921, at a cost of $10,000. The two original owners held the same, a second mortgage of $5,000 each, each owning $42,500 of same. On June 1, 1925, (6 years from date of purchase) the first and second mortgages had been reduced by $5,000.

On the 3rd day of September, 1926, the entire amount of $22,500 had been paid in notes issued and all transactions were commemorated by Theo G. Schultz, Chairman of the Trustee Board and Geo. E. Gordon, Sun. Keeper of Records and Seal. This is believed to be the first instance of a fraternal organization giving its own members the opportunity to buy stock and own mortgage notes on the one piece of property, thereby making the entire proposition financially secure.

Already the telegraph wires are busy from prologues who are asking his services in Chicago and New York. It was a fair propensity for Tuesday night, September 8th at the crowded Olympic Auditorium, he "didn't do ninth else but..." Not from the clouds, but from everywhere, rained those blows on the lackless Silver who gamely tried his best to weather the storm but in vain. Jack Silver has been a great favorite on the Coast here, and in spite of a recent loss to Paul De Haze was favored to Beat Thompson with odds at 3 to 2 down town. Now that it is open, a great surprise has been thrown to the camps of the Thompson team. "good man has Thompson, knocked out? Can he hit? He has no money fire? What chance has he against Baby Gans, etc.? They are all auspicious on this:— Thompson is as good as any boy in the country today and the equal if not the master of Baby Gans. Personally, he hopes they never must till Jack gets a little older in age, and experience, but he would take the "Young Master" or at a minute's notice and probably show him how to sock. Both boys received his ambitions as they stepped in the ring. Silver looking tall and well muscled Thompson looking like a school boy with everybody as usual wondering if he well smoothed hair would get messed up this time, which it selenious does. Round 1.—Thompson fighting low to offset Sillerva height and lands, hands down a left a stomach and left hook to be held Sillerva right to hold Chilac with rapid in-creasing Sillerva misses left hook to bear away. Thompson left to body right to stomach. Round 2.—Thompson hard right to stomach. Exchange rights and left to head. Thompson knocked back with Round 4 — Thompson lands, left to stomach, keeps following Silver in spite of Silver's jubbling, lands right and left to body, two rights a left to head and tight right to law. Silver lands hard right to Thompson's law, left lab to head. Thompson pounds kipneys. Round 5 — Thompson lands two lefts a right and left. Silver left, right, a rather low left. Silver begins holding. Thompson begins to speed up. Round 6 — Thompson left to body, right and left to jaw, misses right, hands hard left book to law. Silver lands left and right staggers groggy from to law, in a bad way. Round 7 — Thompson backs Silver to rope, pounds body, landa hard left, right left. Silver shakes, goes to floor, up again but out on his feet. Jack Thompson prepares for knock-out shoots and left to head at bell. Captain Monstad of Redondo Beach reports that fishing has been exceptionally good of late; many Los Angeles anglers returning to the Monstad pleasure and landing pier on the speedboat Chief from the deep-sea barge Lahaina, which is anchored off Redondo, have been bringing in large catches of mackerel and bonita. The all-sight service established by Captain Monstad on Saturdays to the barge Lahaina is proving to be very popular with Los Angeles anglers. The tennis upsets smashed by "Big Bill" Tidgen's downfall, before the French avalanche, found Vincent Richards and Richard N. William as the only defenders of major individual titles. They retained the United States double corn. Helen Wills and Surnanne Lenglen retired because of ill health from the defense of their biggest titles. New amateur and open champions were crowned in both British and American golf championships, Jones Hitted the open titles held in 1925 by Jim Barnes and Willie MacFariane, but failed twice in his own amateur field. The Georgian was eliminated from the British amateur after beating Robert Harris, the 1925 champion, and fell before George von Elm in the final of the American event. Oct. 31, they owe the Manchester Merchants a beating which they will endeavor their best to deliver at the Watt Monarch Park. They met this strong team twice before; lost one and won the other, so feel they should win again to keep the championship here.

A good crowd attended the first paid admission games Sunday last at the Watts Park, a doubleheader against the L. A. White Sox. It seems the Monarchs must have underestimated them for though they got up, both games 10 to 9 and 7 to 8. Some of the shaw's new material will be drafted in by Sunday, so the fair is expected to fly.

CALIFORNIA EAGLE AUTOMOTIVE SECTION GASOLINE WAR STILL RAGES PAGE EIGHT AU GASOLINE WAR The public is still enjoying the benefits of the gasoline war raging between old John D, Union Gas, Richfield and other oil concerns. It's a terrible, yes horrible struggle and more seem to be able to control the sittation. Prices in many instances vary 3 cents. It can't last long. Big concerns don't believe in conducting their business on a losing basis and just now that's what they are doing. Tomorrow is another day and an overnight caucus may bring many changes. In no few instances big concerns have cut prices and also cut dealers' profits. This feature looks like some 114 independent stations are going to have to fight for their existence. In the meantime don't let them fool you into believing it's going to last. It can't. Someone has got to pay and as usual its going to be the public.

Recently a fourteen-seat auto bus of this type made a complete circuit of France—328 miles—at fuel cost of $15.00. The fuel was simply wood or charcoal heated to a high temperature by a special apparatus attached to the left of the motor, transformed into gas, which, mixed with air, passes on to the motor and is exploded in the cylinders the same as ordinary gas from liquid fuel. The company's announcement asserts that light motor trucks loaded to capacity can run sixty miles without restoring at a cost 80 per cent less than gasoline-operated trucks. The spectacle is presented of a chauffeur of this vehicle caught short of fuel calmly stopping at the nearest wood pile to gather a huge bundle of fagots, which within five minutes after dumping into a small stove attached to the side of the driver's seat provides gas with which to proceed. Many reports have been made public in the last two years of the invention, which will utilize materials other than gasoline motive power for commercial automobiles, but the Berliet announcement today was the first knowledge of wood-burning vehicles passing into the realm of a finished, manufactured product ready for the market. HITS and MISSES In the belief that a knowledge of highway regulations would do much to ocurb the loss of life on the highway, particularly among the younger generation, the American Road Builders' Association is urging the teaching of traffic regulations in schools the country over. x—xx—x It is a wise motorist who carries a can of gasoline in his car, even if it is only one gallon. Although it may be possible to secure gasoline in an emergency by sending after it, it may be difficult to find a telephone. x—xx—x Keep all connections on the exhaust pipe packed and tight. Otherwise, the exhaust gases will come through the floor boards, resulting in headaches and often more serious results. Carbon monoxide gases are dangerous and give no warning. x-xx-x Brakes should be adjusted whenever the driver is able to push the brake pedal to the floor board. This is not an indication that the brakes need relining, because the adjustment may be made by tightening the bands. Leads White Choir In Spirituals (By A. N. P.) Fort Worth, Texas, Sept. 22.—John W.

Adams St. HIJambult 3764 FRIDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1926 UPTON'S RAILROAR CLATTER By Chas. L. Upton HENRY FORD STARTLES THE WORLD With the astonishing announcement of a five-day week for employees of the Ford Motor Car Co., Henry Ford has again set the pace for other corporations and industries. It might be a good idea for The Pullman Co. to watch this new experiment, and then follow suit by giving an extra day layover on one night runs with pay. This would give the Porter more time in which to do some work at him without being all tired out when he returns to his run. It would cause him to buy more goods from the merchant and by the merchants business increasing he would have to employ more ttraveling salesmen, thus benefiting the Pullman Co. by increased travel and better efficiency from a more rested and contented porter. Yes, we are ready for the five day week, Mr. Pullman Co. 0-00-0 Delegates to the fifty-first annual convention of traveling passenger agents have been looking Los Angeles and vicinity over during the past week. "What does this mean to us?" we ask. Well, these are the men who sell Southern California to the Easterners, and by actually enjoying the pleasures of the product they sell, it will naturally have a tendency to encourage them in increasing the sales of that product. And as porters we will benefit by handling a much greater influx of tourist travel. In view of the recent disaster in Florida our nearest competitor, "business should be more heavy this Winter. We sincerely hope that the Delegates to this convention/have seen and been convinced, it means much to us. Following are the names of the porters who handled this distinguished body of visitors: L. F. Thomas, Chicago East; A. S. Perry, S. Wooten, S. Washington, B. L. Clarke, W. E. Holland, J. Perrie, St. Louis; P. Pernell, Chicago Central; B. Fulford, W. H. Dantzler, Mr. Taylor, Asst. Supt. P. Co. and M. Sather, accompanied the special train to San Diego. W. B. Jones of Kansas City was also among the crew. 0 00 0 G. W. HENDERSON MARRIED The news has just reached the Clatter that G. W. Henderson has done that thing. It seems as if the boys have been taking the hint that was put out in the Matrimonial Chart recently. They say that music hath charrums, so hath love. C. SMITH ENGAGED Another rumor has it that C. Smith is at last engaged. Mr. Smith was another one of them single birds that was mentioned in the Matrimonial Chart. These Los Angeles girls have not been losing any time from the way that things are going. The harder they are girls, the easier they fall; keep up the good work. 0—00—0 We are wondering how much did Joe Lee bet on Tuney? 0—00—0 L. J. Green, Ass't. custodian, porters' car, bet heavy on Dempsey—with his mouth. 0—00—0 BIDS Looks like A. W. Starks will get Stafford's place on line 3452, he is the oldest man up so far, but there are many a slip between the cup and the lip. Line 23½-38 has got a clean sheet on the bidding line, apparently no one wants it. J. Pitts has jumped line 3472 in search of better fruits, so they sent him out of town with the G. A. R's. 0-00-0 SICK LIST The following men were reported sick last week: W. A. Clark, Ed. Garey, C. E. Hill, J. L. Hill, T. W. Kimbrough, Wm. Mitchell, W. Carter, J. Ponder, S. B. Forsythe who had an operation on appendix can be seen at 1544 E. Jefferson. 0-00-0 SANTA FE RED CAPS Red Cap Flemming has left the service of the Santa Fe. Here they are, instead of red cap, they should be red hot; Dauchey, head red cap; Mariee Felix; Norman Steward; E. G. Brooks; A. L. Brookins; B. F. Spivey; L. Wilson; S. Hanks; Alonzo Day; Joe Daggart and Owens. The boys are preparing for a heavy racing season, starting on Thanksgiving. A. L. Brookins says he is going to get well this winter picking the winners. He picked Tuney to win and has had all the boys working for him ever since. Mrs. B. Rease, wife of Mr. B. Rease, head red cap in San Diego, left last week for an extensive trip East, where she will visit friends; while stopping off in this city she was entertained by Mrs. Edna Skeward at a dinner party. The Southern Pacific red caps have not been labeled yet, but numbers that resemble something like the ones on the backs of the bliz football teams. 0-00-0 AT THE HOTEL BRONX The following saints B. S. writers were listed in the Hotel Bronx week: E. H. Hine Chas. A. Albrason Al Field, Paul Paston H. S. Moseby R. H. Carmack, H. B. Webb Chicago North Western, N. A. Mason W'/H Waldson, M. Davis C. Carrer J. W If You Fail To Read THE CALIFORNIA E AGLE, You May Never Know It Happened Smith, Sterling Ross, J. Robinson. Pullman Porters stopping at the Bronx last week were: J. Conor, Chicago; L. W. Black, E. B. Hicks, H. Cheveallier, J. Vaughn, Geo. Payne, Ed. Lewis, J. Oliver, P. S. Holmes, H. W. Coleman, Mpls, N. T. Morton, Den H. E. Davis, Den, S. Bridges, Omaha. Formal Announcement MR. EDED SKINNED MADAM W. M. Wilson Los Angeles First Beauty and Sculp Spec- Sadie Reed Marries The writer almost got his neck broken last week for telling the public that a certain pretty maid was married, but with this tip I am forced to 'take another chance. It has been rumored from very good sources that Maid Sadie Reed has at last tied the knot in Chicago. This romance has ben brewing for some time and has had everyone guessing congratulations. 0-00-0 MAIDS FOR DE LUXE STILL A QUESTION The writer has has just heard that the maids for the Union Pacific De Luxe train have not yet been selected, although he was given the assurance that the Los Angeles Maid were being seriously considered. 0-00-0 The Union Pacific has discontinued the second section of the Los Angeles Limited. 0 0 0 Should Maid Sadie Reed deide not to return to her run after spending her honeymoon, this will create a vacancy on a regular run. 0-00-0 DRAWING ROOM MAIDS A porter said to the writer the other day that a certain maid was a Drawing Room Maid on the Santa Fe—most of her time is spent sitting down in the drawing room. We hope that there are not any drawing room maids on the U. P. as we are hot after that De Luxe. 0----00----0 A maid cut her finger on a razor blade in the drinking cup receptacle in the ladies dressing room. How strange! That's not strange, don't the ladies shave their necks. The gentleman's first love said: "If you marry her I will shoot you"; and the gentleman's second love said: "If you don't me I will shoot you." Now, the question is, What would you do? He did! 0-00-0 T. A. SIMS CANDIDATE FOR DELEGATE TO P. P. B. A. OF A. T. A. Sims erstwhile P. P. B. A. politician has again declared that he will throw his hat in the ring for the Delegates Office at the next election which starts on the first of October. As yet no one has announced any opposition, J. Prayer whom the writer announced last week is not a member and is therefore out of the run-oinf. 0----00----0 R. L. WILLIAMS TO HOLD GENER al.

Fry left for New Orleans last week to bring back a delegation of bankers. 0—00—0 H. B. Wilson is now operating the San Diego Tourist car. How come? 0—00—0 T. D.

A. Montgomery, Treasurer of the now defunct Argument Club was surprised to find an attachment to his cheek in lieu of a shortage of funds of the former organization. This is the first step toward a rigid investigation which has been brought about on account of a member named J. Carter No. 2. PRAISES OUR METHOD September 10, 1926. Editor Caif. Eagle.: I have been trying for some days to just drop you a line of appreciation for the manner in which you handled that false exposition which held forth at the baseball bark. What we need is more men of courage who will speak out against this species of citizens who will take a dollar, no matter what light it reflect upon the race. The dastardly attack upon you, but confirms the charge which you made and makes the attacker most dispised of all men. Keep the good work up; we are with you all the way. J. F. SAGE.
