Cary, Director of Agencies of the Liberty Life Insurance Company of Illinois, to the Vice-Presidency of the Company. This promotion comes in recognition of the wonderful work done by Mr. Cary in building an agency force which put on the books of the company over nine million dollars of busi- L. F. SIMPKINS ness in the five years that the Company has operated. This is the second recognition of Mr. Cary's worth by the company in less than a year, as last. Much he was elected a member of the Directory. Mr. Cary will now assume charge of real estate department, dealing in insurance, real estate and property. start at 2:30 P M S. P. Johnson, former G.

"There is no finer salesman anywhere than E. H. Cary." President M. D. Bousfield said in announcing this promotion, "Mr. Cary's long and faithful services to Liberty Life enthilt him to the choice when we began to look for a man to head this important department of our work." Mr. Carv's successor as Director of Agencies is Mr. Luther F. Simpkins who has served under Mr. Cary nearly the whole time as Assistant Director of Agencies and Educational Director. Mr. Simpkins has made an enviable reputation as a salesman and a teacher and deserves this appointment.

BROGGS, Pastor. The Negro's Condition in Florida's Storms AS SEEN BY MARY McLEOD BETHUNE RPRESIDENT OF NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COLORED WOMEN, AND BETHUNE-C O O K MAN: COLLFGCF. DAYTONA BEACH. FLA. Having just returned from the storm-swept area of Florida, and having received numerous telegrams of inquiry as to the true conditions existing there, especially as they pertain to our group, I hereby give forth the following information: Moreaven's condition indescribable; bird-like inhabitants destroyed. Dead bodies beyond recognition. The remaining inhabitants forced to evacuate town. Fort Lauderdale heavily hit. Negro's condition here serious. Homeless, foodless, swollen faces, lame limbs from rheumatism brought on from exposure. Homes surrounded by water. Miami's Negroes very fortunate as to Death Toll. Hard hit as to property. Only one Negro's death reported. Storm swept around Negro section. Almost all Churches destroyed. In all the history of my life I have never witnessed such destruction and such sorrow. When I got into Fort Lauderdale, it seemed that little town had been swept away. Numbers of men, women and children were still muddled in their little cabins and huts in ponds of water. Their faces were swollen from exposure, and many of them were lame, having contracted rheumatism. There were mothers refusing to leave their little homes with their children, because they have no place in which to house themselves and were trying to find dry places on planks and fragments of house tops—white people and Negro people alike. The heroic spirit of readjustment, patience and resignation with which they are accepting conditions was a revelation and a benediction to me. I found that food, clothing and medical care, as far as possible, were being supplied from the Relief Organizations. The Negro people were receiving the same kind of help that the white people were receiving. We were strong, capable, committee of Negro people to work with the Committees of whites, but they are rapidly being formed. Particularly in Fort Lauderdale do we need, nurses, provided with rubber boots, who can plunge through the water to reach these sufferers. Hundreds of the refugees are being provided with tickets by the railroad officials and general authorities to any part of the country where they have friends or relatives, until conditions are better. A tent to take care of the Fever cases is being erected today at Fort Lauderdale. We brought last night hundreds of service in the work of caring for the refugees. Rev. Evans and the other ministers of the city are doing all they possibly can in this work. The grounds of the Church Rev. Evans pastored, and the remains of the church, are being used as headquarters for a Relief Station for Negro people. Mr. W. M. Mitchell, supervisor of the People's Industrial Insurance Co., is rendering most valuable service in co-operation with the city authorities in seeing that workers are not overpaid and all volunteer service possible rendered. The heroic way in which these people are co-operating with the authorities of the cities in clearing up and relieving those who are worse off than themselves, is commendable. God has been wonderfully good to the Negro people of Miami, in the sparing of their lives. The death toll in Miami for Negroes, as far as we have been able to learn, is one. We cannot make such a statement, however, concerning Fort Lauderdale, Winter Haven, Menehaven, Livery City and other smaller towns. In the conjectured sections, where the little three-room cottages are almost jammed together and where the poorest classes of people trouble, God wonderfully blessed them. I think the most pitiable conditions that I have seen *Nagroes in*, is in *Fort Lauderdale*. The condition at *Morehaven* is indescribable. Two-thirds of the *inhabitants* went under, and those who were left have been forced to evacuate. All of our *Churches* were almost *indescribable* *Miami*. I cannot describe the *district*. Only saw a great storm wang out way. We are putting forth every of PROGRAM MOVING ALONG St. Philip's Vested Choir Will Aid In Campaign Endorsements of Father Cleghorn's campaign for funds with which to build a new church office at 28th and Stanford streets have been heartily given by Bishops Joseph Johnson and W. Bertrand Stevens of the Episcopal Diocese of Bostwick, and by prominent citizens of the community. These men appreciate the service Father Cleghorn has performed in the community and consider his desire for a new church to take the place of the little wooden chapel he has used so long to be so justifiable as to call for generous response from those who have the interest of the community and religious life of the people at heart. He was a pioneer in bringing the Episcopal Church to California, and he is now pioneering in his method of conducting funds. At times he has such a strong aggregation of people been brought together for a common cause. This campaign is considered more in the light of a progressive community movement than a denominational affair. The letters of endorsement not only commend the building project, but they speak highly of Father Cleghorn whose innate modesty has kept him from asking anything of the community for sixteen years.

Bishop Johnson's letter follows: "To Whom it May Concern: "I am very glad to commend the Rev. W. T. Cleghorn, Rector of St. Philip's Church, Los Angeles to the churchmen of this Diocese. "Mr. Cleghorn has done a wonderful work during the years he has been connected with this Parish. His congregation has shown great activity in providing for its needs, but in addition to what they have done, a considerable sum of money will be necessary for the new church building which they are planning to erect on their new site at East 280th and Stanford Streets. "Mr. Cleghorn is an exceedingly intelligent, well-trained and useful man, whose work has been characterized by judgment and commonsense, and furthered in a way that has shown itself to be very useful to the congregation to which he ministers.

WHEATON It seems as if there is a wave of pessimism permeating the minds of some of our great men, men whose opinions and views of the world's events are read and have considerable bearing in molding the thinking status of the masses. Dean Ingel St. Paul, London, in deploring the lack of sympathy in the United States for England, says that "the doubts if the United States would come to England's assistance should she be invaded unless the invaders were a black army." Evidently the good Dean is fully cognizant of the attitude of certain sections of North American Republic in the cious treatment of its black citizen hence his exception. X—XX—X Then: Rabindrath Tagore, philosopher, poet and sage of the Indies, says: "Western Christian Civilization is crumbling." Speaking to an audience in Berlin, he said: "You Westerners who possess all material wealth are starving yourselves intellectually. He then added, "And we who have nothing believe we have sensed the mysteries of the Infinite. . . . There can be no lasting peace until you strive to work for the good of all mankind." Tagore has tasted and seen the evils which have practiced under the noise of Christian Civilization in the Western world and like many others, is nervous, its many. X—XX—X Then comes Clarence Darrow, with in whose bosom beats a heart tuned SIX. to sympathy for all humanity, and he is reported as saying to a friend, during the course of a conversation, that "he would welcome death as a release from this inhuman world with his part of blood." Darrow is, no doubt surched with the hypocritical traps which he has witnessed under the guise of Christianity. He has witnessed the prostitution of justice and the rape tolerance. He has seen manifestations of hatred which has dethroned reason and made of man maniacal brutes. But it is to be hoped that the angel Ares will long defer his coming to the great counsellor, the world has need of him. In Oakland California a number of white parents caused their children to absent themselves from a school to protest to the prejudice of so-called "white children" at though those Chinese pupils were Americans by right of birth and entitled to the full rights of national those parents sought to instill racial prejudice in the mind of their spring by siding and abstaining in defying the laws of the country. Parents are greatly to blame for the great amount of racial strife that exists. They foster racial prejudice by encouraging their children to assume a superiority over their fellow. Of course some of those parents are just a few degrees removed from the steerage, but realizing and loving memories of the days when they wished and so they choose when they think, the under god. It is not that they feared that slave children tween the Chinese society and children might be detriment to future citizenship of the WEDD MASON Attorney-at-Law and Notary Public Practice in all the Courts of Californias Consultation Free Office: 224 E.

Chest officials declare, 'Ninety-four cents out of every dollar collected in the annual appeals is actually being sent to charity and but six cents out of every dollar is being used for year-round administration of the Chest and campaign expenses. Operating with the financial maintenance of the Chest is every type of agency necessary to meet the needs of the city's sick, needy and unfortunate men, women and children. There are orphanages, homes for the aged, hospitals, clinics, dry nurseries, corrective and protective institutions, preventive agencies, homes for dependent children and various other types of agency. Instead of hundreds of drive, campaigns, "tag days" and appeals, the Chest has come with a new solution, one appeal once, a year to take care of all necessary charities. The purposes of the Chest are: to act as a central bureau through which all funds for charitable, relief and welfare work may be solicited, collected and disbursted; to promote studies and plans whereby the social service problems of the city may be thoroughly understood efficiently and economically dealt with and adequately met; to develop a spirit of co-operation among the institutions devoted to those problems and needs, and to coordinate their activities. From point of geographical area to be covered and from number of agency members, the Los Angeles Community Chest is the largest in the United States, according to Scott. The area covered by the operations of the local Chest includes, Los Angeles proper, Hollywood, the San Fernando Valley, Sherman, Beverly Hills, Westwood, Sawtie, Brentwood, Westgate, Pacific Palisades, Palms, Cormon, Huntington Park, Maywood, Bell Cudahy, Walnut Park, Southgate, Home Gardens, Waste, Whimmington, San Pedro and Venice. REDLANDS All services at the Second Baptist Church of Redlands were well attended on Sunday, Sept. 26th. Rev. W. D. Carter, D. D., pastor of the Friendship Baptist Church of Pasadena was the distinguished guest and honored speaker of the day. This man of God proved himself to be a most farvent, forceful and eloquent deliverer of the Word. His morning subject was Loyalty to God and Its Results in which the speaker extolled David's loyalty, obedience and faithfulness to his Master. He enumerated the principles by which the present day followers of the lowly Nazareme might prove their worth to the Great Cause. Keep our Soul on Top was the subject of the powerful, fiery, message delivered Sunday night. He emphasized the fact that Men's Souls must be kept on top regardless of prevalent fashion conditions, social and political conditions or the various pitfalls of Satan. The speaker was heartily congratulated by the pastor Rev. F. W. Cooper and his congregation after both of his inspiring sermons, and Dr. Carter and his congregation were extended, a cordial welcome to worship at the Second Baptist Church at any time through the courtesy of the pastor.

MOTHERHOOD---ARTICLE I The Changes in the Mother's Body Mauricean called pregnancy a "disease of nine months duration," and there is much truth in that statement. Generally the pregnant state and labor are looked upon as physiologic and in perfectly healthy women they may be so. But as a matter of fact, due to the weakness of the human body and due especially to the low vitality of this generation—no other function of the body is attended with such dangerous possibilities. For during pregnancy, especially in this devitalized generation, the border line between health and disease is greatly diminished. On the other hand with proper medical care there is no class of patients who yield more successful results and more happy returns to patients and physician than the average pregnant woman who does have proper medical care. And because it may make the difference between life or death to you and yours I do urge, and will continue to urge through this column even pregnant woman to delay not, but rather at once to your physician or to she honest and efficient doctor and examined and put yourself under our care, not at the 9th month, but as soon as you even suspect that you are pregnant. Because at the inception of pregnancy—changes the mother begin. Whether she will relate herself properly or impatiently to these changes depends largely upon her knowledge. And even though she has had one dozen children, still no woman is able to give herself the proper medical examination and care during her pregnancy. And the more intelligent the woman the earlier will she seek medical advice and care. Sitin Changes in the Pregnant Woman—The Pregnant Mask Because our eyes first rest on the skim we will start here and go from the external to the internal changes. In many pregnant women the skin presents very striking and characteristic changes. Today we shall discuss the Mask of Pregnancy. Pigment is deposited in many parts of the body—the valva, naval, nipples and liaea alba. But on the face occurs the typical brown stains, of the cheeks, nose and forehead which are so typical. What is the significance of this dark mask? Anthonisties have discussed the subject a great deal and all agree that it is due to circulatory changes, in the spleen, the suprasarens (pigment making organs) or the liver or in all three together. Also that the mask is most often seen on women who are suffering from some form of uterine disease and who are therefore very nervous. Brunettes are more often affected than blondes. And those who have sluggish bowels and poorly eliminating skin more often than those whose bowels and skin are normal. These facts show that the mask of Pregnancy though generally considered normal, truly is not so but may and often does indicate some grave disease of liver, spleen or other internal organ and therefore should never be allowed to go uncorrected. Changes in the mother's body during pregnancy will be continued next week. Sunday night, October 10th, at 7:45 P. M. Evangelist P. G. Rodgers is scheduled to present reasons to his Big Congregation, just why the Bible is a reliable book for the public school as well as the parochial school. Evangelist Rodgers promises not to rec The Musketeers At Eagle Hall Labor Agent Killeld DeKalo, Texas, Oct. 5.—Thomas Hill, a labor agent who came here to recruit cotton pickers for a Dallas syndicate, was shot and fatally wounded here Sunday in an altercation with Cakin Johnson, a well known white farmer. The white man complained that Hill had sought to entice laborers from his plantation. After Hill had been shot, he in turn shot Johnson, wounding him twice, but not fatally. Johnson was released after a preliminary hearing to await trial on a charge of murder. Conference Closes The Southern California Conference, Methodist Episcopal Church closed its fifteenth Session, at the First M. E. Church, Pasadena, on Monday night. It was a fine session and prove. of great interest and inspiration under the efficient presidency of Bishop Charles Wesley Burns, of San Francisco. The appointments were read on Monday evening at the close of the service, following the Anniversary of the Federation of churches and the Anti-Saloon League. Rev. A. P. Shaw was returned to Wesley for his tenth year and Rev. S. M. Beane came back to Hamilton for his eighth year. A committee of the presidency also comes to Rev. G. W.

Dudley, True Fit Tailor In Wake Of Progress In taking stock of business enterprises of real worth and merit, the steady, but sure progress of one of our fellow citizens must be noted and especially is this true of Mr. J. O. Dudley, known as the "True Fit Tailor." Mr. Dudley has been in our midst for a period of only about seven years, starting with practically nothing, in that period he has built up a business in his line of efforts which takes second place for no other. He started humbly on East 12th Street and by strict attention to business and true representations to his patrons he has steadily progressed to his present situation. On October 4th, he opened up in his own brand new building at 2812 Central Avenue, with new fixtures and spacious room, a modern and up to date establishment which is not only a credit to Mr. Dudley, but to the entire community as well. We bespeak for all men of the progressive type as exemplified by Mr. Dudley, a strong and healthy support. BILL WHEAT OPENS MODERN GARAGE Wm. Wheat, well known as an expert automobile mechanic, a promoter and who formerly conducted a large garage on 9th at Central Avenue, has leased the large and commodius garage at 1018 Central Avenue, where he has opened up and again put our group on the map as conducting a worth automobile repair shop. EXPERT IN, CHARGE Mr. Wheat has secured the services of Mr. Harry Parker who is recognized as one of the best mechanics on the coast. He severed his business relations with the Parker and Jackson Garage to accept this position. The firm invites your presence and inspection to their new, large and commodious garage, where a guarantee for first class service and reasonable prices and work turned out with neatness and dispatch.

Rev. C. P. Jones greatly indebted to the Hon. Noah D. Thompson for his genuine services in removing the color bar which had been raised and allowed her daughter, Dorothy, to attend the school of her own faith in her own neighborhood and she wants the public to know that Mr. Thompson was responsible for the removal of this embarrassing situation. It seems that although Dorothy had attended this school for several terms without question, an element of prejudice had sifted in and wanted the school to be 100 per cent white. When Dorothy applied she was denied, they told her that she would go elsewhere with her own kind. No one peals that her mother made would be listened to. The doctor then appealed to Mr. Thompson, who took the matter up with Bishop Cantrell and very soon the Mother Superior found a way to admit the doctor's daughter to this school. Thereby demonstrating that as we have always claimed the hydra-headed monster of prejudice only comes from the understrappers for the really big persons are too big to bow their knees to the small, petty prejudices which are so unjust and unkind. Miss Inez Hunter was entertained with a lovely dinner dance Tuesday night. Honoring her return from a 4 week's vacation from Lake Elsinore. (Continued from page 1) COMMENTS By: ENTS W. J.

The ladies are doing a wonderful work in the way of art, and looking after the old people; those that are not able to get about and care for themselves. The ladies of the club are preparing to give an exhibition in the near future at which time they expect to place on exhibition the various articles which they have been making and invite the public to inspect and purchase such articles as may suit their fancy. The next place of meeting will be at the residence of Mrs. Ida Stevens, 1371 E. Washington Street. Mrs. SUSIE S. WHITLEY, Pres. Mrs. MARY PARKER, Secty. F.

Christian Tavern was the scene of a beautiful appointed social affair on Friday evening, Sept. 24th when the Iroquois Friday Morning Club entertained four of its members who were elected to responsible offices during the State Federation. The club was honoring Mrs. J. M. Edward, third vice-president of state and chief of staff, Mrs. Edna Steward, vice-president-at-large, Mrs. J. J. Christian, chairman of Ways and Means and Mrs. R. E. Banks, chairman of Domestic Science. A well-arranged program was carried out which was as follows: Contralto Solo, Mrs. Naomi Pharr, Reading, Mrs. A. C. Bibrew; Solo, Mrs. Bertha Spruill; Mrs. M. G. Patten the newly elected president gave a beautiful talk on the past, present and future activities of the club. Mrs. Steward in her forceful and intelligent way responded. Mrs. M. H. Broyles in her own sweet way acted as Mistress of Ceremonies. Delicious refreshments were served and everybody expressed themselves as having spent an enjoyable evening. Much credit is due the chairman, Mrs. Bell Johnson for the success of the entertainment. GOLDEN STATE CLUB The Golden State Club held their regular meeting at their club house, 4621 Crompton Avenue, Thursday, September 30, 1926. This was social night, a little business was transacted, then dancing was the feature of the evening. The music was furnished by the Golden State Club Jazz Orchestra. Refreshments were served and everybody had a good time. Dances, alternating with literary program and whist teas, will be held throughout the year. Next meeting which will be business meeting, will be interesting in itself as plans for the year will be disclosed and some important reports made. Several fine objectives will be striven for by Mr. Randolph Foote, president of the club, and equally fine programs are being planned by the chairman of that committee, Mr. Charles R. Baker, Jr. Several new names were added to the membership roll during the last two weeks. The success of the Golden State Club is due largely to the faithful leader and director, Mrs. Ada B. Williams of 1175 East 46th street. LAFAYETTE JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL NOTES The beginning English class for adults is growing nicely. We have ten members now who come for one hour three days a week. As soon as we can get an enrollment of fifteen, we can extend the time of the class to two hours a day. The class meets Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings from 9:15 to 10:15; Room 16, near 12th and Naomi. The Vocational Cooking Class for adults was organized Thursday and had a very interesting demonstration. The class will next have a demonstration by Miss Martin of the Home Economics Department of the Sperry Flour Mills. She will demonstrate inexpensive desserts made from a plain cake base. The recipe she will use will be a master recipe and she will explain different ways to vary it so as to make several interesting and easy desserts. Credit for this course will be based partly on the at- tendance at the class so early enrollment is important. Mrs Murdoch WEstmore 3464, will be glad to answer any questions. The school is between 12th and 14th streets and between Naomi ad Hooper avenues. Take "U" car to 14th ad Central and walk East to the school or take "B" car to 12th and Naomi which is at one corner of the school grounds. The cooking class meets in Room 6 which is on the ground floor near 14th and Naomi. SPARKS By: MISS GLADYCE GREENAWAY We wish Noah M. Thompson (formerly Ye Spa Diller) a successful journey.

THE FIFTH ANNIVERSARY OF THE WILSHIRE OLYMPIC Well it has come and gone. It is needless to say that the annual party given Friday night, September 17, 1926, by the Wilsley Olympic Club of Los Angeles at the beautiful Palm Inn, was a huge success. Was everybody happy? From the first dance thru "Home, Sweet Home" it was a gay crowd with never a chance for a dull moment. One whole year to wait for another of this kind. Nevertheless keep your eyes open for greater things to be done by this popular club in the near future. X—XX—X In one of the most elaborate weddings of the season, Mr. J.

Friday, October 8, 1926 Vol. 40, No. 18 CONFUSED The McPherson case goes merrily on and new witnesses bob up from everywhere until it really looks like a frame up and all hands have been, and are confused. LOWEST CASUALTY LIST Prejudiced white folks down at Miami would not allow colored folks to live in the city to any great extent. This fact therefore is the answer to the small casualty list among our group. In other words in this instance the "white folks had to walk that lonesome valley, and walk it by themselves." WANTS TO COME TO LOS ANGELES It is surprising strange how, at this lats date, so many persons come forth with the information that they saw Mrs. McPherson in so many different places and they are willing to come forth and so testify. To a person way off looking on, somebody wants to get in on all this fuss and flurry or they want a trip to Los Angeles at the expense of Los Angeles County. CLUBS ON THE TABOO Until such time as the promoters of beach, country, town, or any other sort of club for its successful conclusion the backers thereof must certainly have enough capital at hand to erect and put in operation the same, if they are to receive any substantial support from the people. They have been stung to the quick on these propositions where the promoters are speculating with the situation and this escrow business. We are truly of the opinion that the State Corporation Commission should scrutinize all these applications and put their O. K. on nothing except they are backed up with the necessary finances. BETTER SUFFRAGE LEAGUE We claim that thus far the Better Suffrage League has kept itself on an even keel and bids fair to become a real force for political advancement in this bailiwick. There are more who stand for our political advancement that could for one moment depreciate the movement, for we had no active political organization worthy of the name as such before this recent formation. The Better Suffrage League elected as its first objective to wage war against the bonds. In this battle they lost, what of it? No organization has got any guarantee on winning its first battle and the League could have been wrong in waging this particular fight. We thought then and now that they were on the wrong track, but they were trying at this price to help out a ragged situation. This club went through its first battle and it remains intact with plenty of enthusiasm, hope and inspiration. With this spirit manifest we verily believe that it is in the realm of possibilities for this organization to lead us out of the wilderness and get the people together as never before upon the vital question of a political nature which appears before us from time to time. We want to see the Better Suffrage League proceed cautiously, but surely along the lines of supporting the measures and men who stand for all the people and not for certain groups. With the approaching election of a School Board which is reputed to have wrought a leaning toward the propaganda as set forth by the hooded knights of the Ku Klux Klan in our school affairs and other equally as pernicious propositions in public affairs, makes it very necessary that the Better Suffrage League should be eternally on the job. TREAT ALL ALIKE Speaking of the situation on the Eastsde and the police activities wherein it seemed to be a policy where numbers count, while other sections get winked at for trivial offenses: we find a strong sentiment against such activities and that this situation will be fully investigated, all for the just and equitable treatment of all citizens alike. We note where the good people of the Episcopal Church think that, the Rector of Philip's Chapel, Father W. T. Cleghorn, should have a better and larger church and are even now engaged in a campaign to raise funds for this purpose. Now what we want to know i who is it that would not subscribe to this fund, if for no other reason than out of the goodness of their heart and appreciation of Father W. T. Cleghorn. We have, for this pastor, the highest and greatest respect for the great service which he has rendered as a Christian minister in our midst. He has always been for everybody and against nobody. He is a high credit to the cloth and with our many outstanding divines we class Father Cleghorn shoulder to shoulder with any and though humble as a lowly scribe is wont to be, we will gladly contribute to a new church home for the worth while pastor. Father Cleghorn. Who wouldn't? POWERFUL DEFENSE OF JAZZ The composers of jazz music recently received a severe cantigation at the hands of the eminent music critic, Ernest Newman, of the London Times, England. He did not stop at criticism, he went further and said that jazz composers were far barking as intellectual beings. We are sure that the vast ma- --- jority of people think different from this eminent critic. We quote here from the Dearborn Independent which is a strong defense of jazz. Speaking of the powerful defense, we speak it advisedly when it comes from this source. "In Defense Of Jazz "Jazz composers of this country are righteously indignant over the caustic and uncalled-for comments on their art voiced by Ernest Newman, the music critic of the London Sunday Times. They are deeply wounded at his implication that the 'typical jazz composer is merely a musical illiterate who is absurdely pleased with little things because he does not know how little they are'. Nor is their pride assuaged by his comparison of their product to the singsong of a nursery rhyme, or his assertion that 'the thing is dead from the neck up. But what tries their souls, what rocks their patriotism to its very foundation, is his contention that 'the brains of the lot of them put together would not fill the lining of Johann Strauss's hat. What does this English Johnny think he is doing? Is not, jazz an American art, to be defended no matter what the cost in ink or dictionaries? 'I have never claimed any distinction for jazz', plaintively retorts Paul Whiteman, one of its principal proponents, 'other than it is the true expression of a nation's song'. But isn't that enough to claim? The heart of a great country tenderly laid open for all to see! "'Red Hot Mamma', 'Yes, We Have No Bananas', 'So's Your Old Lady'—the true expression of a nation's song. What more could Mr. Whiteman add?" BIBLE IN THE SCHOOL Who would have believed that the time would ever arrive when it would become an issue at the polls as to whether or not the Holy Bible would have a place in the public school room. The book is the foundation and cap-stone of the Christians' religion and yet its fondest admirers and believers must do battle on November second to insure its presence in public schools of our great and mighty commonwealth. Take it as you will from the beginning of the Christian era the Bible has had a rocky road to travel. The following is an excerp from the Los Angeles California Voice which gives an illuminating insight into the question at issue: "One argument used with more or less apparent reasonableness by those opposing the Bible amendment is based on the constitutional "bill of rights" which guarantees religious liberty, freedom of the press and freedom of speech. This argument is in no sense, even remotely applicable to the question of permitting the Bible in the public schools. Freedom of speech, freedom of the press and religious liberty are found only in the countries where the Bible is permitted in the schools and in the homes. Go back to 1898 to the land discovered by Columbus, the island of Cuba. For four hundred years it was formally and ceremonially most religious. Before the excavation of the Spaniards, and the Spanish priests, all forms of religion, except the Roman Catholic were forbidded. "Neither Protestant nor Jewish nor any other faith was tolerated. No marriages were legitimate except where the ceremony was performed by a Roman Catholic priest; none but Catholics could be buried in the cemetery, until the destruction of the Maine, when all the bodies that were recovered were laid in consecrated ground. The importation of Bibles was prohibited by book-sellers and by the public, and the British government was refused permission to build a chapel for the Church of England in connection with the consulate. The same prohibition prevailed throughout the island, and no Protestant churches existed or were allowed to exist at the time of the American intervention in 1898. "Parallel with religious intolerance, was the densest ignorance on the part of nine-tenths of the population. Public schools were unknown. Scarcely ten per cent of the people could read, and these few were Spaniards of the more prosperous class, who could afford to patronize private schools. William E. Curtis, the well-known newspaper correspondent, writing from Havana, says that for centuries the common people of Cuba had the worst instruction and the worst example in the world. They have been taught dishonesty, duplicity, and deception, without encouragement or even hope of better things. "And so it has been in every country where the Bible was not permitted in the public schools." "Those who oppose the amendment on the ground of religious liberty, do so for personal and ecclesiastical reasons only and not for reasons of religious tolerance or motives of Christian charity. The plea is wholly and entirely on selfish grounds. One man in Selma opposed the reading of the Bible in the public schools because it interfered with his religious liberty. A thousand people wanted the Bible read in the schools, and to rob them of it interfered with their religious liberty. "The one man, Roman Catholic, swore out an injunction against allowing the thousand to enjoy their pellate Court and this court gave the decision which gave to this one Roman Catholic his religious liberty by taking away the Bible from every public school in the state and thus by giving one man what he claimed his right, the court took from a million American citizens the right to enjoy their religious liberty. It resolves itself into this: When you are in Rome you must do as Rome does and when Rome is in America a million Americans must do, by edict of the Appellate Court, what one Roman desires them to do, and the court upheld the one Roman against every man, woman and child in California who believed that the Bible was worthy of a place in the life, education and training of good citizenship."

Johnny will be training at the Main Street Club all wek. The Tunney Question The manner in which Dempsey fought, or rather didn't fight, might make muscipious people think that maybe the thing was a bargain rather than a battle. Dempsey floundered and faulted and halted. If he had an opponent like Harry Wills he would probably have been kocked cold in the first few rounds. Tuney could clear the atmosphere and make himself a worthy champion in all eyes, and not a mere pretense, like Jess Willard if he would agree that in the next six months he will fight the best boxer that can be gotten of any race or color from anywhere. There is so much corrupting money in this too rotten game now that a "world champion" cannot be like a "world wife" "above suspicion," because his champion, Tuney's attitude in this matter will immediately gain or lose for him the respect of the more decent portion of bankkind. He has already been reported to be in sympathy with the so-wardly business of dodging Negro contenders. But now that he is champion, in name at least, what will he say about it? Perhaps, we shall soon hear. If he "draws the color line" the doubt will become a conviction that he was put up and put over for that reason. KEY OCTOBER 12 (By A. N. P.) New York, N. Y., Oct. 6.—According to an announcement made by Humbert Agaazym, cooperator, Eckbett's Field, Will Wille, Sharsy's Boston heavyweight, will meet at Ebbett's Field, October 12, in a 15-round bout, as last outdoor bout of the season. Wills, who was denied the opportunity to meet Dempsey and whom Tunney the newly crowned "Richard heavyweights. His opponent, Sharkey, fied that he would not fight, is beginning a rampage to prove to the world that he is the real champion of the heavyweights. is opponent, Sharkey, is no set-up and has been designated by Hype Igee of the New York World as a logical challenger of Tunney. Igee in a recent article declared: "Jack Sharkey looms as a dangerous contender for Gene right now. I mentioned him at the outset and I come back to him as being particularly capable. Caution, but capable just the same. Sharkey has beaten Corge Godfrey, Eddie Huffman, Jack McMave and Jim Malone this year. He conceded forty pounds to Godfrey." We don't know whether Sammy McLarnin ought to knock that chip off Tony Crus's shoulder or not, for Tony is a tough baby and Saturday night, October 9th at the Main BLA. A. C. he has promised to make Jimmy ashamed of his brother Sammy. They had a hard scrap not long ago but Sammy claims this one will be easy for him. So there you are. But in six rounds or less we shall see. Did you see Fatay Fannigan light a week or so ago. Say, that boy can go. He will probably trim Harman Ritterhouse in the a round special event. Here is the whole card and to join the crowds that dang there on Saturday nights will be to see some good scraps: M. Johnny Risko is gong to show the Los Angeles fans Tuesday night next just why he has been called the most feared man the light "eavyweight division. On that night he meets Eddie Huffman, the perspicity and tenacity to thank for getting them the shot. Joe spent a lot of time on the telephone and in the telegraph offices on this match, and he had a deal of local competition to contend with, but Knowing the right party to talk to in the light heavyweight division. On that night he meets Eddie next light heavyweight champion of the world to meet the erstwhile gob. This should be a great match. Huffman is a great card here, because he has not been fully developed. He shows better every time, and he is given a great chance to wallop this "Baker Boy of Cleveland" when they hook up. Eddie can punch, and can box, and gets around the ring like a lightweight. With Risko it's a matter of wallop. He never pretends to be a boxer, but the "dooks" he has. The folks out Cleveland way say that all Johnny ever had to do was squeeze a sack of flour n one hand and the end flew open, but that cannot be believed altogether. (Photo, Courtesy Evening Express) Imagine a ball player already the world's greatest hitter, bringing in four kills, three of them, home runs in one game.

Nat ional Committee to St. Louis will Scipio Jones, Ark. Political Leader Girds For Battle LAUNCHES ANOTHER BATTLE IN DEFENSE OF HIS RACE (By A. N. P.) Little Rock, Ark.-Spurred on by the aparent "double crossing" handed the "Old Guard" by a group of Negro Republicans who compromised with the "Lily Whites" and accepted seats in the recent convention, Honorable Scipid Jones, political leader of this section, has girded for battle and according to those who know Attorney Jones knows no defeat. HIS RECORD INSPIRES CONFIDENCE The belief and confidence that the people of Arkansas have in Scipio A. Jones is well founded in a record of accomplishment that is known by practically every school boy and girl, as well as by the "Lily Whites" of THE the Repuplican party. A few years ago when the Republican State Convention of Arkansas refused to go on record in opposition to the inquiring Grand Father Clause" for its support of the establishment of Negro voters of Arkansas, Mr. Jones assembled his forces and defeated the proposition. Two years ago when the "Lily Whites" refused to recognize the Negro members of the Republican Party and used policemen to exclude them from the Pulaski County Convention, Judge Jones as he is municipal court judge, went to the mat with them at the Cleveland Convention and again emerged from the fray victorious. REFUSES SEAT IN LILY WHITE CONVENTION Realizing his strength, the "Lily Whites" at 15th, tended the judge held July 15th, tended the judge which he refused. Now comes the tacit endorsement of "Lily Whites" by a group of Negroes which was repudiated by all fair-minded and thinking Negroes and again Judge Jonse is marshalling his forces for battle. HOLDS RESPECT FOR BOTH RACES The esteem and respect for Judge Jones on the part of his own people are shared by the whites, as is indicated by his election to the Municipal Court bench and as chancellor of the Little Rock district by the Little Rock Berger County judge, number of the members were and are white democrats. In this capacity Judge Jones has served in a manner which reflects credit upon the bar and the bench has gained a reputation of being a lover of equality, a believer in justice to all and a fearless judge. Judre Jones attained national fame when he successfully defended eighty-four victims of the Elaint Riot in 1919 when after a legal battle which extended over a period of five years and was waged in the highest courts of the land, ending in a glorious victory for justice—with the acquittal of his alleges. This, however, is not the only time Judge Jones has championed the cause of justice for little or no compensation, Citizens of Arkansas, colored and white, are yet culigging him for his victory which resulted in breaking an the convict lease system which was virtually slavery for Negroes and poor whites. HAS HPLD-BUT ONE PUB- LIC OFFICE DESPITE the fact that he is nationally known and is recognized as a courageous leader in fraternity, legal and political states, Judge Wilson has made a name for himself. During the Great World War, the Judge was appointed by the late Woodrow Wilson, then President of the United States, a governor of the Legal Bar and servant of the country without pay until the war in the war. Judge William H. Tate however, during the Minneapolis trials as President, moved to assist him, Wagner of Death in the District of Columbia. Judge Jones so fulfilled the promise, giving as his tro That reason, however, would not hold water today as the Judge has amassed a fortune, and is now promoting two sub-divisions—one for colored and one for white, and is the moving force in the Mosaic Templars, one of the strongest fraternal organizations in the country.

Boston, Mass., Oct. 3, 1926—Rev. B. W. Swain, the president at large of the National Equal Rights League, speaking at the 64th Anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation in the Twelfth Baptist Church, declared dissatisfaction with the President's response to the Southern Centennial Anti-Segregation Petitions, for the缸 not to see the segregation "Atlantic retreat," say "Groundless" since any WHITES SECURE CONTROL KNIGHTS OF TABOR (By A. N. P.) Little Rock, Ark., Oct. 6. Special. The race lost another business enterprise, when the Knights and Daughters of Tabor was taken over, lock, stock and barrel by the Standard Life Insurance Company of Eureka Springs, Ark. This deal was kept secret by the officials of the Knights and Daughters of Tabor from the public and it was not until Monday, when the information concerning the deal became known, although the papers in the matter had been approved by the Insurance Department of Arkansas on September 7th. The consideration was not made public but nevertheless, as far as is able to determine by the delegates who attended the Grand Session of Pine Bluff, the matter had never been authorized by the Grand Session. When the Grand Session met in regular convention in Pine Bluff on July 20, mention was made of the fact that the order was in such a rocky condition and that it would be necessary to sell the order's insurance department and buildings to some other concern the following week. Although, there was current rumor about the state that the order was insolvent and owed more than $55,000 worth of death claims, the officers denied this, stating that a real estate loan on the building at Ninth and State Streets known as Taborian Hall for $25,000 would put the order in a "very good shape."

It has been operating its insurance department for about twenty years and has a membership of 14,250 members. The department records at the State Hospital for the Blind. The first colored society to begin insurance business in Arkansas.

Upton RAILROAD CLATTER A heavy vote was polled last week in the primary election of the P. P. B. A. of this district, at this writing over half the porters had cast their vote for the different officers to hear Local No. 1 during the ensuing year. The delegate to the Grand Association, however, has been the main issue and up to the present writing has brought about a complete change in P. P. B. A. politics in this district. T. A. Sims who has always been a strong candidate for the office of delegate to the Grand Association, was nominated at a meeting of the local held last week and apparently had no opposition up until a late hour last week, when the tide was overwhelmingly turned in favor of a dark horse, whom it was rumored later as S. A. Hopgold. This came as a complete surprise to the Sims factions, who were unaware of any move of this kind. But a great rally was looked forward to and a hot battle is now certain. A check up of out of town is expected to bring the two candidates running neck and neck, as they are both very popular leaders in this district. R. J. Murray was nominated for Chairman, C. H. Levy, Vice-Chm.; C. A. Crain, Secy.; S. A. Hopgold; T. C.; the committee was the primary was: S. H. Burnette, Chm.; L. H. Hill and J. Ponder.

R. Armstrong, former Ass't Supt. of the Los Angeles District paid a visit to his old friends during a period of his vacation last week. Mr. Armstrong stated that the climate agreed with him in San Francisco and that although he had a great many friends here, he had no intentions of coming back in the near future, and from the location he is holding down at present, he evidently has taken Homere Greeley's advice in "Go West!, young man, go West!" He is as far West as he can 'get unless they change the map. Mr. Armstrong made the trip by auto. E. L. ARNAUD ADDS ONE MORE TO FAMILY Porter E. L.

Since he now has three children they no longer call him Da! Da! but Paf! Pa! The extra board won't get it now, kid! it's the desert for you, and the railroad clatter congratulates you and yours. Bring around the cigars. H. L. ARMSTRONG PLANS TRIP H. L. ARMSTRONG now operating on the San Diego line is commending to the call of his native land and is planning a trip to Texas in December he says he always likes to go to Texas when the cotton is not in bloom because when it blooms and he sees it his vacation does not do him any good as far as rest is concerned. x-xx-x PILLOW SLIPS L.

SMITH NO. 2 GETS MARRIED Porter C. Smith No. 2 put one over on the gang and got married to a marrying young Miss last week. I have been keeping tab on Smith for some time as he was one of the men mentioned in The Matrimonial Chart. On my last visit with Mr. Smith he told me that he was engaged. I called around later to see if he was in the same frame of mind and he was married, so this speedy romance is evidently of love at first sight. Evidently some of these girls have been following my advice in that series of articles entitled The Matrimonial Chart. However, my old friend S. A. Hopgood met up to the present time he is still safe. The Railroad Clatter extends Mr. and Mrs. C. Smith congratulations. x-xx-x SOUTHERN PACIFIC Mr. G. Millette, Commissary Chef for the S.

Traveling chef T. Harrison is holding the job down while the different commissary chefs are on their vacations. Richard Burns the S. P. sheik and Ed Johnson went hunting. They both took their guns along in search of big game. After walking both night and day trailing what they thought to be bear tracks. They pitched their teets in an ideal spot for a little rest. The sheik lost the map which he had brought with him, so he inquired from a settler who happened to be passing by of their whereabouts, and said the settler, "My friends, you are now in Echo Park, can't you hear Aimee - McPherson broadcasting?" The Golden State trains were all 36 to 48 hours late last week and old man Kendall told the crews it was every tub; so they doubled and doubled.

I am admitting that a large number of colored I have at times served under me have been too small for the job. I say too small and mean, they never had my interest at heart as never. I never should. They would delight in the opportunity ofmazing when I was at faint, theywanted to sit at me and that untruth always happened when I needed truth most. I have at the same time come in contact with some Negroes who were too large for their positions.

My wife promises lots of money each week for goods needed to run the house, yet quibbles of the names of wearing apparel the usually know the names of even reputable brands of food. She is no worse than the average housewife, so she wore women like them. What?

We went to church again Sunday. Why? Not because the wife made the mistake of using the Sports sheet to the a package in; only wanting to give the old soul some needed exercise. It got it good and plenty too. Every time I go to Hamilton M. E Church come home feeling sort of dizzy. Psychologists call it inspiration. I keep calling it a chronic case of inability to digest the mental ability of the pastor Dr. Behe. I can't see how it is folks are not out to get his message in the same manner they show for the "Four Squares Gospel!" Observers of the social order of the day are convinced that in all relations of life there is a strong tendency toward complexity, and that, in consequence, simplicity in thought and habit is becoming more difficult to maintain. This condition arises from the involvement of the ages in materiality: that is to say, from the general acceptance of life as material, as having its source in matter, as inherent in matter, and as supported by it. While the avenues for expressions by the individual have been vastly increased in number, his mental and spiritual freedom has not been enhanced thereby. We believe that the shortest way to simplicity is knowledge. In all thing it will go a long way. On our way to the Lycée's Air Port, Sunday, we stopped by our old friend at the Rogers Field; we got our first glimpse of the much-talked of Police Officer, Sheffield — I mean the one of the 'every' pub and Blues fame. Of all the many things I have heard among our group concerning his methods of seeing and attending his duties, even the part about his having a 'cruel streak' I must refute. Why?
