WIN NEW TRIAL FOR THE SWIMMING POOL CASE Daring Murder Attempt On Life Of Prominent Citizen VOLUME 40 WIN N Daring N. A. A. C. P. SCORES A GREAT VICTORY IN SUPERIOR COURT JUDGE HARTLEY SHAW GRANTS NEW HEARING The now well known and much discussed case against the Playground Commission of the city of Los Angeles took a new turn this week when Superior Court Judge Hartley Shaw granted the plaintiffs a new trial, and by so doing, temporarily at least set aside the decision which was given some time ago in the case. It will be remembered that the case was brought in opposition to certain regulations which limited the use of the swimming pools to members of our group to Monday afternoons with exception of the Vignes Street School. At the trial which lasted 10 days, and which was prosecuted by the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. the court upheld the regulation of the Playground Commission. The N. A. A. C. P. was not satisfied with this decision and application was made for a rehearing. The result of this application was the setting aside of the former decision and the granting of a new trial as prayed for. The N. A. A. C. P. was represented by its committee of Legal Redress: Attorney Bert McDonald who made the argument in favor of a new trial was assisted by Attorney Willis O. Tyler. Roland Hayes Spends Christmas "At Home" On Georgia Farm When Roland Hayes' present tour of America was booked, the tenor's first concern was to reserve the Christmas holidays for a fortnight "at home." This meant the "flat-woods" country of northwestern Georgia. The small tenant-farming community called "Curryville," where he was born, holds cherished associations for Roland Hayes. It was here that he helped maintain the scanty acres of his mother (an ex-slave) and his family of brothers and sisters. At length, the Hayes family removed to Chattanooga, across the border in Tennessee, where the farm boy became a "hand" at an iron foundry, attending school when he could. When he departed northwards and to Europe to become one of the great tenors in history, Roland Hayes organized "home" associations in Chattanooga as well as in Curryville. This season he saved two weeks at Christmas for the scene of his boyhood. He had not planned to sing, but when the whole of Gordon county turned out to greet him, there was no denying them. Curryville had no town hall; in fact, Calhoun had the only one in the county. Here Roland Hayes sang to a rent audience of friends who listened for the first time in their lives to the songs of Handel and Schubert. Another demand in the form of a telegram signed by the City Manager and Chamber of Commerce came from the citizens of "Rome," a town a score of miles from the singer's birthplace, which with its 13,000 of population had once seemed to Roland Hayes, the farmer lad, the metropolis to which "all roads lead." So Roland Hayes gave a recital in Rome which was indeed a great occasion. He also made a return appearance in Chattanooga, which town holds an opinion far more than friendly of the great tenor. While in Chattanooga Roland Hayes visited the stove foundry where he had worked as a boy and was much pleased to find two of his former associates. Roland Hayes Pays Tribute to the Grave of Booker T. Washington Roland Hayes found time, during his sojourn in the South, to visit the great institute of Tuskegee, Alabama, and sing for its members. The tenor laid a wreath on the grave of Dr. Booker T. Washington. Bv: ROGER DIDIER (For the Associated Negro Press) "Monnie" they called him for short. That is to say, the girls called him "Monnie." It was soft and rather pretty. But the boys just called him plain "Mon." "Monnie" was a sure enough lively rascal, into everything, mischievous, reckless, busy—busy always, playing baseball, football, pranks. He was rough. "Monnie" was even devilish. And when "Monnie's" mother decided that the little town of Paris, Tenn., was too small to give the right sort of opportunity to her growing, ambitious son, she sent him to Memphis, where he soon became an honest-to-goodness shiek, only in those days they didn't call them shieks—they were dudes or dandies. "Monnie" was a dandy. He was wild about the girls and the girls were wild about their dandy. "Monnie" was always rough with the boys, but chivalrous beyond comparison with the girls. Perhaps that was because of another trait that "Monnie" had. Wild about sports and fun on the outside of home, once he got frilled he had a habit of reading books. He read everything, entire libraries. They say that he used to run up on home libraries and never stop reading until every book was finished. So some folk said that much of his gallantry was a bold conq of what he read. At any rate, "Monnie" could meet a girl he had known for months and just overwhelm her with courtesies and special attentions. Too, he sang and played the piano a little. He was always a talker. Sometimes he gave one-man concerts, where he would sell the tickets and be all parts of the program. His boy friends and his girl friends were wild about his parodies on the oldtime popular songs. They all knew that "Monnie" was smart, but they never thought that he would ever be good. Why "Monnie" was just like any other boy in every way, except that he was more lively and more studious and smarter. He was no goody-goody. That's why his oldtime friends confess today that they never thought that he would ever be a preacher. "Monnie" a preacher—that devilish rascal—smart as a steel trap! "Monnie" a preacher, even though, in his own words, he was as "polite as a basket of chips," especially to old folks! That could never be. But it is so. Today "Monnie" is a preacher, one of the most celebrated in the land. Thousands of people have listened to the word of God as years of study have revealed it to the former "bad boy." So great did "Monnie'a" fame as a preacher become that they called upon him everywhere. Of course, he is no longer "Momnie." They introduce him to von now as Dr. Johnson, Dr. Mardecal Johnson, the first Negro president of Howard University. Tennessee has its eyes on this handsome son who has made wood. The boys and girls who knew "Momnie" as a boy are still young men and women, and their memory of him is still fresh. "Momnie" or Dr. Johnson is still young also, bein' gracefully more than thirty-seven. An illness caused by study aged him considerably. But he is a young fellow. At a recent meeting in Chicago something of the old "Momnie" was seen. Dr. Johnson had just completed a formal address on the Negro's progress and problems. An elderly white clergyman rose to ask him a question. "I have been bombed twice because I live among colored people," he explained. "My old parishioners have moved away and lost thousands of dollars in property values because of Negro coming into the district. What shall I do?" The question presents no difficulty for Dr. Johnson. He impaled to the answer. "This so-called depression in property values," he explained, "is the result of an un-Christian state of mind. Stay where you are and by the example of your Christian life confute this erroneous assumption." (By: A. N. P.) Washington, Jan. 3—Attorneys retained by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People with headquarters in New York, today argued before the Supreme Court that the Texas "White Primary" law, enacted May, 1923, barring Negroes from voting in the Democratic party primaries of the State, is unconstitutional, urging that the Texas law was a violation of the 16th Amendment to the Constitution and of Sections 1979 and 2004 of the United States Statutes. The case before the Supreme Court arose out of an action brought in the Texas courts by Dr. L. A. Nixon, of El Paso, who, being a bona fide Democrat with poll tax receipt and entitled to vote in Precinct Number 9 of El Paso County, was on July 26, 1924 barred from voting in the party primaries in pursuance with the contested Texas law of 1923. The Judge and Associate Judge of elections in that district, Messrs. C. C, Herndon and Chas. Porras, issued a certificate to Dr. Dixon confirming that they had declined to permit him to vote. Dr. Nixon in this test case, financed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, is claiming damages in the sum of $5,000. The case has come to the Supreme Court on appeal from the Federal District Court for the Western district of Texas. The text of the contested Texas law is as follows: "All qualified voters under the law and constitution of the State of Texas who are bohn fide members of the Democratic party shall be eligible to participate in any Democratic party primary election, provided such voters comply with all laws and rules governing party primary elections; however in no event shall a Negro vote in a Democratic party primary election held in the State of Texas, and should a Negro vote in a Democratic party primary election, such ballot shall be void and election officials are herein directed to throw out such ballot and not count the same." Fred C. Knollenberg, of El aso, retained by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in behalf of Dr. Nixon, argued that as Democratic party primary elections in Texas are recognized and regulated by law, casting a ballot in such an election is an act of voting within the meaning of the 15th amendment; and the im mun ity against discrimination on account of race or color guaranteed in that amendment, protects the Negro in his right to vote in such a primary. Mr. Knollenberg's brief further recites: Mr. Knollenberg's brief further recites: "The Democratic party primary in Texas is the only real election in that State, and the general election in November is nothing more than a formal ratification of the results of the Democratic primary. The same is true to a greater or less extent in a number of other States. If such an enactment under such conditions be valid, government of the people, for the people and by the people," was an idle dream, and the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States were adopted in vain. "In the primary from which Dr. Nixon was excluded no race or color was harred except his. In El Paso thousands of White and of Mexicans and numbers of Chinese could, and did legally and their ballots; but Nixon, because of remote Ethiopian ancestry, was only a spectator." The bitter classmate of the Texas law, as once a fragrant, unjust discrimination against a African solely on account of his race and color; such a brazen attempt to handl him from a party of his choice and brand him with a mark of indifference, as an outcast to exasperate the privilege which other citizens enjoy of affiliating with the party of his choice and exasperating the freedom of jungle in selection of edibles under whom (Continued on page 2) The war in Nicaragua; the near war in Mexico, and the blee Ball Scandal have occupied the front page of the press for the week. Even the little family affair of the Chaplins, and the threatened censorship of the Chaplin films by the Mayors of the city on Puget Sound had to occupy the second space. -00- Following the unequivocal declaration of policy by President Coolidge; Secretary of State, Kallog, in his appearance before the Congressional Committee, has won ever to the support of Administrators on policies many of the Senators who were adverse in their criticism. All had Senator Borah, who dares to be "Daniel." Senator Borah in a speech of the "Hands Off" policy sums up the situation by saying "Inaugurate a campaign of peace; abolish the idea of force; try friendly relations; seek to establish unity, with to get in touch with the masses, with the people themselves, and we can establish a policy in Central America which will protect our interests and secure rights and which will do that which we are entitled to do—receive special consideration from the people." Splendid sentiments but, will they apply to the present condition? Two years ago the California State Legislature created a Commission for the Reform of Criminal Procedure, and in its introductory statement to the report made to the 47th Legislature, comments on the prevalence of crime throughout the United States and characterizes it as appalling. It says: "Human life has become so cheap, disregard for it so great, that we have a homicide rate fifty times as high as that of England." No one's home is safe, for gangs of burglars always armed and ready to kill break into every habitation from the mansion to the humbleest dwelling; and in our cities and towns, every morning sees the report of a long list of burglaries frequently accompanied by most strocious acts of violence. Gunmen ply their profession of killing for profit or pleasure. A number of changes offered by the Commission will change the criminal procedure and enact for speedy trials and quick justice. Assemblyman Frederick Roberts has been given the chairmanship of the important Building and Loan Committee and membership on the following: Education, Election, Universities, Fish and Game, Reapportment, Public Health, Hospitals and Axiiums. Roberts has "ared especially well in his committee appointments and it is a signal recognition of his legislative ability. If the bill "Regulating Beauty Shops" introduced by Senator Crowley, is passed, some of the beauty doctors will find it "hard stolid." The Johnson Swing Builder Dam project is receiving attention, both State and National, as essential to the development of the area traversed by the Colorado river. Congrereant resuscitators memorializing the National Congreges, and setting forth the benefits which will accrue, have been passed by both branches of the California Legislature. The project in an annual fact and when the waters of the Colorado are impounded adjacent land will advance to a prohibitive point. We may again, once more, to the NEGRO FARMER of the South "Congel Bring with you Farming Intelligence and Money." In Department 6 of the Superior Court, presided over by Hon. Wm Hazlett, judgment was awarded to Mrs. Lula Turner (Colored) against Oren Bailey and A. D. Leavett (white) in the sum of Five Hundred Dollars in damages, after a trial lasting all day of the 14th inst; this being the result of an action for damages brought by Mrs. Turner against the above-named parties and others who, it was charged, maliciously and expressly invaded the home occupied by her and her family and, by means of threats and circumstances of terror, forced them to flee from property purchased and occupied as a home by Mrs. Turner. The property is located at 947 Ira street at Graham in Los Angeles County, and the attack upon which the action was predicated is alleged to have occurred on the 21st and 27th days of March, 1925. The action was vigorously contested by Attorney F. H. Bowers who represented Mr. Leavett, the pleading and evidence disclosing that the latter was a Deputy Sheriff of Los Angeles, County issu, a Deputy Constable of San Antonio Township at the time of the allied occurrence. It further developed that one of the most material defendants, Oren Bailey, mysteriously disappeared shortly after the action was filed and has not been seen since. The plaintiff's attorney intimated strongly during the trial that defendant, A. D. Leavett colluded in the disappearance of defendant Oren Bailey, since the latter was not a property owner and was not solvent and a judgment against him would be worthless, it was intimated, and, by placing all the blame upon this absent defendant, Mr. Leavett would be able to escape liability. The action was prosecuted for Mrs. Turner by Attorney Sylvester Isenberg who was directed by Judge Hazlett to prepare findings to cover damages in the above sum. WHITES SHOULD JOIN NE- GROES IN PROTEST At the Annual Meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, held in New York Sunday, on motion of Louis Marshall, a constitutional lawyer, the officials of the Association were authorized to write against the appointment of Thomas G. McFlood, retiring Governor of South Carolina, as a member of the Federal Trades Commission. According to the Associated Press dispatch this information, "The action of the Negroes, taken at their Annual Meeting, was based on Governor McLeod's alleged failure to bring to justice lynchers of the three Lowman, South Carolina Negroes. It was charged that the Governor was derelict in public duty." If the allegation against the Governor be true, white people should join the Negroes in making protest against the appointment. We do not know whether the charge is true or not, but it is certain that those who participated in the lynching have not yet been apprehended. And the lynching was one the most notorious lynchings of the year. It has been the subject of more comment than that of any other lynching during the past year. And yet, but for the investigation made by the New York World and the courageous figure of Charlton Weight, editor of the Columbia Record, the matter would have been drummed. Men who fail to discharge fully their public duty should not be permitted to hold office; and the higher the official and the greater the responsibility the more quickly should action be taken. If it were the rule to owe from office governors, judges, sheriffs and others of higher position who are inefficient or cowardly in the discharge of their duties, these would be a discharging we all alike the loss down to the lowest in the matter of meeting their responsibilities, but as long as we are complaining in the face of poor fitness we may argue in protest of the law. CARL Van VECHTEN, FAM OUS AUTHOR OF "NIG G E R HEAVEN" AND OTHER NOVELS. IN OUR CITY Dr. Hannibal S. Jackson of the Dr. Hannibal S. Jackson of the Institute of Arts and Letters, praises him. "He has done more in New York for the Race than any other man" says Rev. H. S. Jackson. By Louis Michel Eth'opians who falter and despair, believing that a better day's a long way off, have very little comprehension of the very rapid strides the second and final liberation crusade is making to secure for the Negro his ultimate and unalterable, practical equality of rights with the rest of man' nd. Carl Van Vechten's latest tragical novel "Nigger Heaven", be not afraid of the title which was adopted to secure the Southern 'tracker' morbid attention, which is also this great writer's best work, proves that the greatest of minds of America are taking up, one after another, the sacred cause of the battling Negro. "Firecrackers", "The Tattooed Countess", "Peter Whiffle", we gather, are not in the class with this latest work of his pen; for "Nigger-Heaven has gone into its sixth edition and is by this time pretty nearly exhausted, commented upon by the most competent critics as Mr. Van Vechten's leading production. Negroes from Los Angeles and vicinity are asked to meet and rejoice with this author, who is now in this city, and powerfully, and sweepingly indorsed by this scholarly man in the following letter, written under date of January 12, 1927, from Washington, D. C. "American Institute of Arts and Letters, Office of The Chancellor, Washington, D. C., Beulah Hall, Second Floor. "Dear Brother Michel:— "One of the most distinguished friends of the Negro in America, Carl Van Vechten, Esq., of New York, will be in Los Angeles a few days after you receive this letter. I hope that you will see that proper attention is paid him. He is acquainted with all the leaders in New York, and has done more for the Race there than any of her man. I believe that he will stop at the Ambassador Hotel. Yours "H L JACKSON "Harleston ota" ALL FURLONG TRACT HIGHLY INCENSED On last Tuesday evening between 7:10 and 7:30 P. M. a dastardly attempt to assassinate James Alexander to him and for reasons which he is was undertaken by parties unknown unable to determine. The following story was related to the Soaring Eagle by Mr. Alexander. the Soaring Eagle by Mr. Alexander. About 7:10 or 7:20 on Tuesday a man knocked at my door at 1443 E 54th St. My wife answered the door and the man asked for me. I stepped to the door, my wife holding it partly open and the man engaged me in conversation about various properties on East 9th St. in the vicinity of my home. I easily found every other side remarks about conditions in that vicinity, asking me often about the activities of Sheffield. I told him I knew nothing about what he was talking about, and became suspicious and endeavored to evade my questioning by getting away as far as convenient without making a dash, when all at once he came up from his pocket with a jerk and fired point blank missing his mark by only an eye lash and at the same moment explained I'll give you a O'Hara Henderson shuffle. I fell over and hollered "I am shot, murder." and feeling that he had hit his mark, he bolted for the gray Nash roadster which had been standing at the curb with the motor running and an occupant therein. He describes the man as tall slender and a musculto with a large man at the wheel of the car but could not discern his color. The bullet went through a six inch wall, hit an oil chair, was deflected in its course of 24 feet to the kitchen, and at its egress made a hole through which a man could put his fist. The police were called and in 15 minutes time were on the scene. Thus far no report has been made from the department. Asked to give any possible reason why anybody should try to assassinate him Mr. Alexander replied that he did not know, excepting it resumed from a series of conversations at his office on Wall Street when a woman named O'Gara accused him of reporting operation of her house on E. 9th St. to the police, resulting in raids by the vice squad, and added that he could conceive of nothing else. <.

PACIFIC BEACH CLUB PAYS OFF TO ALL MEMBERS MONEY BACKERS WIN NOTABLE VICTORY AS PACIFIC BEACH INVESTORS RECEIVE THEIR CHECKS FOR INVESTMENT PLUS TEN PER CENT INTEREST It is an exceeding good taste which is now in the mouths of those who invested their money in the Pacific Beach Club precaition, when, on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week there was delivered in their hands all of the money which they had invested in the ill-fated project, plus ten per cent interest, also for all legitimate creditors who had extended credit to the Sales Organization who have or will in a short time receive every penny owed to them.

OUTSTANDING ACCOMPLISHMENT This year indeed has been outstanding from the fact of the pyramid of venturing the sort for the last score of years this is the one instance where the people have not been duped, deserted and thugged out of their money. They failed absolutely in getting what they wanted, namely a job, an opportunity that circumstances had arisen that the fulfillment of their hopes and dreams could not be, they are to be congratulated on getting their money back plus 10 per cent interest on the same. Yes it is true the Orange County office of the Company paying the bounty out of excess per person with the Board of Directors of the Pacific Beach Club, with Hal R. Clark the original promoter. it's a Long Story It will be remembered that the Pacific Beach Club was organized and started out early in 1925 for a pretentious Beach Site near Huntington Beach, with bath house club house, dance pavilion, tents and all other accessories for a modern and up to date Beach. The plan was for 100 Charter members to hold in their name the vested title to the property when all agreements had been complied with in addition there was to be 5000 members Life and Associate with privileges to use the beach for all time. In fact Pacific Beach though a private club was intended for a playground on the ocean for our group forever and ever with their program in front. Attorney E. Burton Ceruti who Hal R. Clark the promoter had selected to front up for the proposition to the colored people, was elected by the Charter members as President, with a Board of Directors congratulating Dr. W. R. Clark, Smith, Dr. W. R. Carter, and Dr. Vada Robinson had the management of the interests of the charter members. Things Pick Up Despite some unforeseen delays things began to pick up, a campaign was launched for Life and Associate Members, the bath house was built, a mighty bathing parade was held, more than 10,000 persons being present in the bathhouse, ever lagged. Then the dancing pavilion was erected and these two buildings was an imposing, as well as inspiring sight and just as the stage seemed set for a gigantic and successful drive for membership seemed apparent, a calamity came about which spelled the doom of Pacific Beach. The Fire In the fall of 1925, nearing the completion of the mammoth pavilion, early one morning fire was discovered in the new-pavilion by the watchman and it spread rapidly and in a few hours the great Pacific Beach Club building was burned. It has never been ascertained what caused the fire, but it is generally accepted that it was of an incendiary origin. Marking Time Just previous to the fire, at a Charter Members Meeting the Board of Directors had been increased from five to nine with the election by the members of Dr. W. C. Gordon, Dr. Albert Bauman, Hon. Fred M. Roberts, J. B. Bass, Mrs. R. C. Olfut, E. Burton Cerutti, Dr. W. R. Carter, Dr. J. T. Smith and Dr. Vada Robinson emposing the board. The board for many weary weeks marked time, hoped against hops, that arrangements could be made for rebuilding the Beach. But each lead company could not unlike the business Fabric of Britain. People Became Hogwarts. People Become Unsexy Finally the people began to get uneasy and called for some sort of showdown from the Board of Disagree. The board was marking time, giving [Continued on Page 2] N. Y. World Calls Lynching "The Blot on the South" In its leading editorial on Sunday January 16, headed "The Blot on the South," the New York World again calls attention to the situation in Aiken, South Carolina, on which the eyes of the country are fixed as a new Governor, John G. Richards, takes office and confronts the problem of prosecuting the lynchers of the three members of the Lowman family, from lynchings and publications of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, to ridicule the "usual crime" excuse, the World editorial says in part: "There is no defense for lynching to which an American State can give a moment's tolerance in the second quarter of the twentieth century. The old excuse of the 'usual crime' has always been simply bunk. There were 3,224 recorded lynchings in the United States during the thirty-year period ending 1918. Less than one-fifth of the colored men lynched were of the colored men lynched. This roster of lynchings actually included fifty colored women. The motives for lynching vary. But there can be little doubt that the principal motive in the 4,000 lynchings which are estimated to have occurred in the South since reconstruction is the desire of ignorant and savage white men to strike terror into a subordinate race struggling to rise. When the Negroes become self-assertive, these men decide that a lynching 'will take it out of them.' That is a conclusion of George W. Gov. Georgia told a conference which he called in 1921, when the State in two years had witnessed 135 cases of lynching or outrageous assault: In some Counties the Negro is being driven out as though he were a wild beast. In others, he is being held as a slave. In others no Negroes remain. In only two of the 135 cases cited is the 'usual crime' involved. The N.-Y. World in its editional also adopts the contention of the N. A. A. C. P. that agitation for and threatened enactment of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill helped, to reduce the number of lynchings in recent years. This point the World's editorial says: "In 1922 there were sixty-one lynchings, a normal number. But that year the agitation for the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill reached its height, while the South took alarm at the continued Northward migration of New Yorkers, which declined to twenty-eight in 1923 and sixteen in 1924; it remained at sixteen in 1925. This was due to the pressure of public opinion and the wide effect of the repressive measures of such Governors as Dorssey of Georgia and Morrison of North Carolina." The World editorial is concluded with the following words: "In the South, the worst blot on American civilization is lynching. Is the State of Rutledge and Hayne and Calhoun going to deal with that blot as it should?" PORTER GETS YEAR AS DOPE CARRIER Montreal, Que. Jan. 20—George Edwards, porter on a Chicago-Mont- treal Express, who was arrested re- cently charged with having narcotics in his possession, was fined $500 and sentenced to one year in jail here, Tunadaw. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, JANUARY 28, 1927 SAYS "FIRE IN THE FLINT" "BURSTING BONDS" "VENGEANCE OF GODS" TO BE PUBLISHED IN RUSSIAN LANGUAGE. New York, Jan. 21—Letters have just been received by the N. A. A. C.P., 69 Fifth avenue, from William Pickens, Field Secretary of the Association, who has visited Russia on his European lecture tour. Mr. Pickens states that he addressed an audience in follow-up including 22 Chinese generals, a number of Russian leaders and representatives of ten to twelve nations and races. The entire groupe writes Mr. Pickens, was photographed at least 50 times, motion pictures being made of the speakers in action. Among the Russian leaders Mr. Pickens has conferred with are Kalinin, sisters of Trotzky and Lenin, and pamphlet editors in report "The Fire in the Flint" by Walter White, and "Bursting Bonds" and "The Vengeance of the Gods" by Mr. Pickens himself are to be translated into Russian, and perhaps put on the stare as well as made into motion pictures. Mr. Pickens has written a comprehensive article on lynching during the past forty years, detailing the campaign conducted for seventeen years against this C.P. in America in the article "This War" to be published in newspapers in Moscow, Berlin and Par.s, writes Mr. Pickens, who has also written for Russian magazines on American race problems. New African University Opened on Gold Coast New African University Opened on Gold Coast New York, Jan. 21—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, G9 Fifth Avenue, learn from England that a new university has been opened at Acra for natives on the Gold Coast of Africa. Native dialects are to be systematically reduced to writing and all text books are to be both in English and the native tongue. A report sent to the N. A. A. G. GP from the Plymouth Western Morning News states: "Careful attention is to be paid to history, music, art, and folk-lore of the whole colony. The Government's scheme is not to Europeanize the natives and so spoil him, but to help him to advance in his own culture, to express himself in his own way, and to enable him ultimately to conduct his own affairs on lines most calculated to render him fit to assume responsibility." A brilliant native scholar, Professor J. E. K. Aggrey, is Vice-Principal of the University. Dr. Aggrey is chief of the Fanti tribe. On the teaching staff are some 24 other native professors. College Survey Shows Negro Benefits By Prohibition Marshall, Texas, Jan. 20.—A recent survey made by members of the Foundation for the study of prohibition and the Negroes Wiley College, shows that "there is plenty of evidence that the economic, educational, and moral conditions of the Negro in Texas have been improved and more civil race relations have been caused by prohibition. In making the survey the jail records were analyzed, sheriff, business men, ministers, and professional individuals supported the findings of the Foundation which also showed an increase in home ownership had been affected since probation went into effect, that prisoners and a few inmates in divorce. WHAT DO THEY DO, AND WHAT DO THEY SAY, WITHIN AND WITHOUT? EVELYN PRE-ER MAKES IN-OUIRY By: THE ARKANSAS TRAVELER (By A. N. P.) Hot Springs National Park, Ark., Jan. There is genuine fascination about this book because you are once hep. Aye, there's the rub. I wonder what's wrong with Arkansas, black and white? This state is not to be sneezed at so far as Negro progress is concerned. This state has a history of Negro development that reads like a fairy tale. During the period following the Civil War, there was a Negro paradise. There was a fine element of racial progressiveness, and interracial co-operation. Colored people were in business, big business. They once owned the street railway, you know, in Pine Bluff. They were elected to city, county and state offices. They were the nation of things. They have great power in this state now, but it is underground and not overhead power. Recently in the United States Senate, Senator Carney, contentious and sarcastic in a marked degree, declared that Negroes are not kept from voting in Arkansas. Of course, the people here "affirmed" right out in mastin' in a sort chagrissan way, because the Senator has the ups on the "publicity department" and they cannot get a dealing with this issue. All the other states, has its fingers crossed. Democrats and Republicans, on Negro voting—there's no question about that from looking at conditions right on the spot. Governor Gets * Pullman For Friend's Friend When once in Hot Springs where the magnificent Woodman of Union and Pythian Bath House are located, and a finer group of Colored people with beautiful homes and glowing hospitality could be found nowhere, there is joy. But the rub is getting in. The white and colored business men and the railroads ought to hold a "get together meeting" and work out a way to treat self-respecting Negro passengers right. It would mean hundreds of thousands of dollars to this community, gift it to the Negro, and how this would be greeted could be paved in gold, and the bath houses lined with onyx and silver, but there are hundreds of self-respect in Colored people who will not come down here from their comfortable homes riding "Jim Crow." It's a sad reflection on American public sentiment to think that people who have the means to pay for first-class service are denied it simply on account of color. It is silly, folly assassine. One of the governors of this state was asked by a big white business man to get a Pullman for a highly trained southern business man of color. The governor telephoned the railroad company to ask him to can "bootleg" Pullman service almost anywhere South. But isn't that a shameful condition? It is. Business Property Directed May Soften Conditions John Webb has pointed toward what may help to be a solution. Last Winter a member of this staff tried to get accommodations out of Hot Springs. He was refused unless he bought a drawing room and two tickets. Returning to Chicago he brought the matter to the store and asked for a refund, citing the claim of the Pullman Company that they at no time order agents to refuse colored people, tickets. The latter deplored it, but claimed that his road dare not brook public sentiment in Arkansas nor the law of the state, begging the question of interstate travel. New months later the Woodmen of Union Hill left an inn and were in hot Springs for this event. The railroads were wary for the business. To one great line which wanted the train from Chicago southward, the same one which had refused accom- mountments. Mr. Webb wrote, "See Mr. Rarnath. If he O. K., your road. You can have our business. That road's might be trying to impress you. Accommodations will do well to follow suit. Who Wills Up By The Engine! Up North, many have sacked me. "Who rides in the Jim Crow?" The answer is men and women of all types. Bishops, school presidents, doctors, lawyers, laborers, railroad workers, babies, and growing children. On some roads, some trains, there is an entire coach, but there are many trains on other roads, divided into parts, like Gaulf: white smoker, Colored women's department and Colored smoker. On some trains they have only a half coach for all Colored, with one toilet, and they are often times crowded to suffocation, with people standing in the aisles. I have been an American sentiment is compelled to change so that men and women of means and high standing in the Negro group can be permitted to have first-class accommodations. The maliciousness of segregation is the crux of the trouble. Certa n whites will say: "Well we are not going to be by any ple, why do you think we do?" That begs the question. In 'Chicago, New York, and other parts, there are types of hotels and restaurants. They are permitted to have their trade. But there are certain places that have no appeal because they do not furnish crow trains. It is not a question on pulling away; it is a question of service. On the other hand, as long as this thing exists, churches and welfare organizations should advise the people on conduct in these jim crow trains. The Negro porters should not be so slippant. The men and women should not air their feet by pulling off their shoes and end of the coach to the other and holler out the windows and laugh loud while passing through different towns. There is too much of all this. Poor whites do the same. There is sometimes drinking and profanity, but this is usually at week ends, and holiday times. The most detestable person in the world is one who is ignorant and pompous. We have seen some of the people who could have all to be huddled together, each should have some regard for the other fellow's comfort and welfare. BE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! Miss Preer's Ridicule. The Towns Look Front Miss Evelyn Preer, theatrical star of New York and Chicago, told me of a time when she was in a certain small town in Georgia, and that beautiful young woman was looking for her coach. "I put on all the dignity I could summon, and my best boulevard walk, and went up to the conductor, and in a pleasant condescending way I inquired, 'Sir, can you tell me where I will find the Jim Crow car?' Miss Preer continued. The conductor looked at me with mixed bewilderment and indignation. I said: Yes, yes, the "James Crow car" that you see in the movie. He didn't know whether to tell me or swear, but he finally, half-heartedly, pointed to the place near the engine. Incidentally, from all appearances, Miss Preer could have hidden anywhere. She is not only talented and beautiful, but is able to pay her way, and is happily married to Edward the king of the village life. But she must ride by the engine. When the trains pass through the "cities, towns and villages," Negroes along the roadway look first up by the engine! They know that's where they will find Colored America! When you come to think about it, it all seems like a huge joke on the common sense of the white south. I sigh with regret that I am not the only system of so-called segregation. There is more real mingling between the races here, open and clandestine; plain, ordinary human friendships and business relationship here in the south than in the north. Slow death of the political demagogue in the city, plain human friendships to a new day and a new type of citizenship that will be more just and air. Preacher Shot As He Leaves Church (By A. N. P.) Arkadelphia, Ark., Jan. 20—As he waved Sunday night and in full view of his congregation, Reward M. C. Counter, near of a rural church near here, was shot and perhaps fatally wounded. His assault escaped and the motive of the shooting is yet a mystery. Reward Counter is now confined to the Townsend Hospital of the city. MALONES IN DIVORCE ACTION ROMANCE OF WEALTHIEST RACE WOMAN WITHERS (Bv A. N. P.) St. Louis, Mo., Jan. 14.—The Malones have broken. The rumors of a rift in the domestic affairs of America's wealthiest colored woman and her husband, which for several years have been a topic of quiet discussion by all St. Louis, and at times has penetrated abroad, were brought to a focus last week. The case was dropped a divorce action here against Mrs. Annie Pope Turnbole Malone, his wife and proprietor of the famous Poro College. The case was set for next Tuesday. Malone, in h's suit which was entered by Attorney Forestoll, a celebrated white lawyer of this city who specializes in cases alleged according to his bill of complaint that his 'h' is wife "ill-tempered and naggy," and makes a demand for a half interest in Poro College, the million dollar-toilet preparation concern controlled by his better half. She is represented by Attorney Charles Nagel, a leader at the St. Louis bar, and former cabine member under the management of Morningstar's series of sensational stories derogatory to Mrs. Malone which have been appearing in a local newspaper and which her friends charge were inspired by and in some instances actually written by Mr. Malone in order to provide a background for his court action, the paper carrier, H. H. H. H., who is clipped and distributed free in other cities where she was well-known and had large business interests. Mr. and Mrs. Malone were married in 1914 after a romance in which Malone who had been a poor school teacher and later a book agent for the Bible Encycloped'a company, won the hand of the most successful business woman whom he had known since 1914. The full of the town where both were reared. He was a bachelor with a reputation of being something of a gallant among the fighter sex and having a flair for ladies well-to-do. His bride had been twice widowed by death. From several well-informed and authentic sources here the Associated Negro Press correspondent has been able to secure the narrative of their experiences, years, it is said, the Malones were apparently happy. Mrs. Malone had been unusually successful in her business venture and was planning the new building, now famous throughout the country as one of the outstanding institutions of the race. Mr. Malone when married had thrown himself into the enterprise and gone to work in 1914. In 1915, lawyers, Mrs. Malone incorporated the business under the name of the Poro College Company. She gave him a few shares of stock and named him president. Later it is said she asked him to return the stock which he refused to do and their disagreement dates from that time. Certain incompatibilities of temperament had health and while from that time on they lived under the same rofo, they really were anart. One of the things people here point to concern the building, supervising, and equipping of the new building. It required effort and business acumen. Malone's refused to work after he lost his stock lot in the employment of New William H. Peck as business manager and Edgar Maldanid joined the executive staff, the letter continuing yet as office manager. Mr. Malone it is claimed however was much in evidence and proudly Mailed the honor and credit. Mr. Malone is also charged according to these sources with becoming jealous of Mrs. Malone and seeking to discredit her, sowing discord among the feminine employer, causing their insubordination and consequent loss of their jobs with a result of being "hard to get along, with." In 1924, $10,000 of Liberty Bonds disappeared from the gate to which Mr. Malone had the combination. Thereupon his allowance was cut off and as he has had no employment, Mrs. Malone's friends feel that the newspaper articles which they charge Malone inspired were the first signs that the ten grand was running now. The big stakes, a half share in Poro-Last April Mr. Malone left the Poro Building and moved to the Y. M. C. A. "I hope he gets a divorce. He has been ugly to me for years," said Mrs. Malone on her return to St. Louis, Friday, the day after he had filed suit, but I will fight to keep him from getting one penny of the money which I have labored for and earned. He may have been a friend and member of the M. E. connection profess to believe Mr. Malone is mentally unbalanced. They point to his nine months' illness in 1919 when, despite their estrangement, his wife nursed him back to health and how they had hoped upon his recovery that amicable relations might be resumed. These people contend that since that time his actions have been less violent, suit if tried fairly will not lime his coffers, although under the lower law of Missouri he probably will have some claim. SAVE JOCKEY FROM LYNCHING (By Associated Negro Press) New Orleans, La., Jan. 24—Press dispatches from Jennings, La., bring the information that a Negro Jockey, whose name has been omitted in the news story, narrowly escaped with his life for alleged rough-riding at the horse races at the fair grounds Christmas Day. It is alleged that the jockey, riding Dempsey, owned by Dave Spell of Opelemaus, owned by a white gooey rat the rail when he fell and received a broken collar bone. Alarmed by threats of the crowd, the Negro dashed to the stable where Spell, Dean Raspberry of Iota, and Will Spiards, of Texas, white men, are said to have drawn pistols to protect him. They were arrested on charges of carrying concealed weapons. The Colored jockey was hurried out of town to prevent a lynching. Former Slave Dies at Age of 115 (By A. N. P.) Winchester, Tenn., Jan. 20—Martha Weddington, declared to be 115 years old, pitched her Monday at the home of the Negro jockey, Mrs. Weddington, who has been totally blind for the past twenty years, is survived by two sons, six grand children, and seven great grand children, who assembled around her hier at the funeral service held Wednesday. Love Sees Old Age (By A. N. P.) Blackwood, N. J.; Jan. 30.—Love may be blind but sure can see old Father Time. This is the philosophy of Amelia Migloh, sixty-one year old farmer of Blenheil, near here, and it explained his failure to take as his bride Fondula Verrick, seventy-five-year-old housekeeper, who kept his home tidy for a year. Migon proposed marriage last week and was accepted. His housekeeper told him she was fifty-seven. She became conscience-striken before the ceremony scheduled for Sunday and reverted the figures which made her acquainted. "She's too old for a wife," Migon said, "but still a good housekeeper." "I will stay as housekeeper," the woman said: "If he thinks I am too old to be his wife, I am content to remain and keep his house clean and cook for him." ed TAoR SRC) Seedy tase: oi -} oats Gong > :: io se te Ae aera bk SR tip oe BoA ‘Be Sr Marie ie cai'g Bs BS <5 Cue, Week Ur ea te a a LES SERN & Rag g 2h eee Re ne cgi Ss He ere aS ain ae ae ce ie eee spies eS AE ae ein SS SA ae a i I ie i cn ae Waele iikecks fake Sets cg ia sk pease aa ha ace aes aes Pays.

MATT SOLOMON A Mrs. Sherman of Hammond and Westgate was found dead in her home Saturday, supposedly from an attack of heart trouble. Funeral services were held from Metropolitan Church of which she was a member. Miss Bertha Miller of South Fair Oaks Avenue gave a dinner party last Thursday complimentary to Mr. Harold Brown who left to attend school in Oakland, California, while there he will stay with his brother Merrill. Paul Ford, the only one of our group on the light weight basket ball team of Pasadena High School, will accompany the team to San Diego where they are contestants in a hot line-up with the Southern High School, Ford is a star forward in the light weights, besides qualifying as varisity in foot ball and track work. He is one among the few of our boys who are making athletics worth while during his schooling. Mrs. Anna Woods of 87 S. Vernon Avenue, entertained Sunday afternoon at a six course dinner honoring Rev. and Mrs. Botts of Omaha, Neb.; Rev. and Mrs. Carter; and Mrs. Dr. Thompson of Detroit. Other guests were Mrs. Brown, Mr. and Mrs. Corry, Mr. and Mrs. Glmore. Miram Lodge No. 24 conferred the first degree on several candidates last Monday evening at their hall. 107 S. Oak Avenue. These are the first candidates to be initiated under W. Harold Nelson, the youngest Master in the State. Rev. J. M. Brown returned Saturday morning from San Diego where he conducted a series of meetings for Mrs. J. W. Price.

MORRISON'S fearless price-slashing will astound and bewilder all attempts at opposition. A complete adjustment is imperative. Matters not if you need merely an odd piece of furniture, a rug or a complete outfit for a home, apart ment house or hotel, you will find it here for almost 50 cents on the dollar. Come now, let your own eyes and ears prove attempted in MORRISON'S FURNITURE HISTORY.

He has rallied sufficiently to be out again but not quite strong enough to resume his position. It s hoped that the race people will rally to the support of the N. A. C. P. which is beginning its year's work. The conditions that confront the citizens of Pasadena cannot be handled by individuals, but requires a solid phalanx, and the longer we put off action the less able we are to combat the opposition. An underhanded devil is steadily working in Pasadena, and s gradually being felt, so it is time for some kind of action. Dr. Swich, noted for his health lectures gave the last of a series on last Tuesday night at Friendship Baptist Church. Rev. J. W. Price and wife are up from San Diego. Rev. Price will assist Rev. J. M. Brown of the First A. M. E. Church in a revival effort for two weeks. The men of Pasadena have been invited by Rev. B. J. Gordon of Scott's Chapel to hear Atty. H. McBeth in a special lecture in the hall now used by Scott's Chapel parishioners during their temporary location at 35 Dayton Avenue on the evening of January 31st. As a result of the revival meeting at Friendship conducted by Dr. Botts more than 20 persons were baptized on last Friday evening by Pastor Carter. The fourth Sunday in February is the day set apart by the officers of the C. M. E. Church when the doors of their new church now in the course of erection, will be open for dedication.

C., Jan. 20—In his farewell message to the State Legislature, Wednesday, Thomas G. McLeod, retiring governor of South Carolina, proposed the following declaration from every individual assuming office: "I have not since the 'day of taken part in' a lynching as principal, accessory, or otherwise, and I will not during the term of office to which I have been elected or appointed take part in a lynching as principal, accessory or otherwise." The retiring governor's message further decried lynching and referred particularly the lynching of the Low- man's some months ago. McLeod termed this crime as "This horrible and uncalled for murder." He re viewed the steps that had been taken to bring the murderers to justice and defended his action in not calling a special term of court to thrash out the matter, claiming that it was not within his power to do so, but urged the speedy trial of the lynchers, declaring: "I earnestly hope that law-saving citizens will back up the prosecution; that the jurors will have the courage to do their duty; that the perpetrators will be held accountable to the bar of justice and dealt with as they deserve." Governor elect Richards has been silent as to whether he will do anything to activate the prosecution of the lynchers if indicted. It is, however, reported that he has not reappointed W. W. Rogers, who has had charge of the Alken investigation, as one of the constables. ```markdown ``` Ordered Sold One of the most complete stocks of high-grade furniture ever assembled and, think of it, people in every walk of life may come in and choose at nearly 50 cents on the dollar.

Travel Heavy to Los Angeles Travel continues to be heavy on all three of the transcontinental railroads. The Santa Fe has been coming in in four and five sections; Union Pacific in two and three and the Southern Pacific the same. All travel apparently is headed this way. The Santa Fe has been running their overflow equipment intact deadhead back to the windy city. A call was sent out here from the main office to D. H. Maids back at one to handle travel coming West, no one seems to be grumbling over deadheading all the way back to Chicago as they are only too glad to get the rest after worrying with such heavy loads coming this way. Los Angeles Maids are crying for joy at being able to get one more glimpse at the famous windy city, since they have only been running as far as Ogden, they had put Chicago down in their books as a sweet past memory never to be forgotten.

In the past week or so such noted people as Babe Ruth, Gertrude Ederle, King Baggott the great moving picture director, Jack Dempsey former heavyweight title holder, Commander Richard E Byrd, in on line twenty-eight the boys have hailed just about everybody that is anybody with the exception of Geo, Young W. J. Logan, Wm. Asbury, please do not let me hear any more of this "Lark." Don't forget to go to the Pullman Porters Dance, 233 Broadway, Feb. 11. A. L. Brookins in Red Ink on Fight Kid Brookins has just about given up trying to pick a winner. The Santa Fe boys have been looking for him with a club for the last few days. Brooks led his boys up to the betting ring and put it all on Tiger Flowers; it was his plan to get even for the fight Baby Joe Gans put up against Brown. He showed the boys where they could not lose on the "Tiger," but the referee threw the fat in the fire for Brooks, when he shouted from the ringside—"It had to be you." Now Brooks is hard to catch, and says NEVER AGAIN. Santa Fe Red Caps to Get Passes A winner is out that all Santa Fe red caps having moved toward that company will be given Coast line annual passes, and fifteen years or over will be given annual passes over the entire system. This is some good news for the boys. Now they have got something to look forward to. Many of the Santa Fe Red Caps have purchased tickets for the coming event: The Pullman Porters Dance on February 11 at 233 South Broadway. Music by Black and Tan- Union Pacific Done A very pleasing surprise was given the Union Pacific ooys when they were informed that the dinners would be pooled on the Los Angeles De Lux and the Gold Coast Limited, which allows the crews to make a long trip and a short one to Ogden. This change has been a life saver for the waiters who were stuck on The De Lux as the earnings of this train as far as they were concerned barely paid for their laundry. Lawrence Cloyd, the Beau Brummel Buffet Porter is on a leave of absence Charlie McKinney has again severed his connections with the U. P., this time he will be found on the Golden State Limited. Handsome Jenkins is now with the C. & N. W., that is, his name is on the payroll, but his heart is with the U. P. Fred Nevills has been reinstated after an absence of six months. California Jack was seen at the Tiger Flowers fight last week, we do not know how he got in, but he was there. Joe Rakestraw is still the class of the U. P. crews and continues to drink his coffee strong. Pillow Sips That red hot Pullman Porters Dance at Music Art Hall, February 11th. Mr. J. L. Arthur, Supt. Pullman Co., Los Angeles says, he will call a service meeting four times a year, beginning on the 28th and 29th of this month. If this be the case he has a let to answer at the next meeting as up to date there are many good suggestions. Mr. McKinney the last meeting called that have not yet been adopted. Yes, we will welcome another meeting. The boys are now going through their daily, dozen at the doctor's office and this time it is on Hill street. Let's hope it will be better than last year. C. H.

EVE., FEB. 3, 192 James Tate of St. Louis, Mo., is planning on transferring to this district permanently. The running time between Los Angeles and Seattle will be cut down to two nights each way and of course this will call for more bumping. The following Maids were reported making trips to Chicago last week: Blanche Mattison, Magnolia Pickens, Hazel Robinson, Ethel Turner and Tennie Upton. J. Ponder, the famous Catalina Channel Swimmer will be at the Pullman Porters Dance, Feb. 11, at the Music Art Hall. I am told that the boys on "Lark" are really singing the blues about running around. J. C. Taylor is an old man's darling, last trip on his way back from Seattle they put an old man 100 years old in his charge. Everybody who is anybody will be at the Pullman Porters Dance, Febs 11. Be somebody and come. J. L. Sykes is still sick at his home, also J. B. Minter. Commander R. E. Bird, the man who took an airplane to the North Pole, came down on the San Diego Owl last week and did not fail to ask the porter for an extra blanket. How come? The writer is of the opinion that every knock is a boost for his column so do not stop, keep knocking. Have you caught pullman conductor Kennie yet? I am told that Vernon Tate has a new car, fair enough. What porter was it that went into a San Francisco lunch room and demanded chillins last week? Why not send in that subcription now and quit reading your neighbor's paper. Up-To-Date Sermons SAMSON REVIVED And God clave a hollow that was in the jaw and there came water thereout; and when he had drunk his spirit came again, and he revived. Judges 15:19. Poor Samson, we both admire him and pity him. But we glory in him then for his life typifies the life of the most of us in its essential features; and his early and final victories thru the Spirit despite human frailty give courage to those who are not Pharisees, but poor publicans,—Zacchaeuses. Samson had been in battle with the Philistines. They hadn't treated him right about his wife. Conflict had smitten the Philistines "hip and thigh." Now they have come to renew the battle. The devil never gives up. He parts for a little season, nurses his wounds and plots his revenge and plans his campaign. Just as well watch. Back he'll come directly. Samson's cowardly people delivered him to the Philistines. Their craven souls forsock the mah who was fighting their battles. But God was with him. And that means a lot, I tell you. He was under special covenant with God, and when he needed help the Holy Ghost came upon him. Oh that ministry of the Spirit! Happy, mighty, victorious is the man or woman or child who has the Spirit's help. Samson "lit into" the Philistines with the green jawbone of an ass and soon had a thousand of them lying ```markdown ``` "hope upon hope." Now we see that even though we have the help of God, the flesh grows weary under strenuous conflict. Sampson had gained a great victory by the Spirit but he had exhausted the natural powers of the man, and a great thirst seized him. But his battle had been in a dry land. There was no water for miles. The heat was intense. Samson's soul fainted His spirit failed. It seemed he must die. But where must he look for help to the God he was serving, or to the one whose battles he was fighting. Now God never fails us when we fight, the light of faith. And behold the miracle of help. Samson had snatched up the green jawbone of an ass as a weapon. Now exhusted and filthy, he still held the bloody thing that had broken a thousand skulls in his hand. And just as he thought he was a beast to pounce in the thing and it began to pour out cool, refreshing water. And Samson drank, and so to speak, became a new man. The Word of God Now that jawbone represented the word of God. Some people do not value God's word any more, than a Philistine would have regarded the jawbone of an ass. So to them it has become an unishment—just a disagreeable thing. But to the believer the word of God is all powerful and precious. It is hot alone his weapon of defense, it is his source of refreshment. Drink, O my friend. There is a cloven place for you. Some tell us that the place cloven was in the valley, named for the jawbone. That God created a new spring there. Maybe. But we'll stick to the dear old word here as translated. It is a great lesson. God can help us from the most unlikely sources. Is your life dry? Have you got a Bible in your house? Does it look dry and useless to you? Well, it is full of life. Streams of living water flow through it. Drink and be revived and live and go on and fight more battles for God. He drank and revived, no use of water if you won't dring it. Drink and live. Amen! God can help anywhere, anyhow. Let us learn a lesson of faith. He is not limited. Praise His name.

Kaleigh, N. C., Jan. 20—Eugene Powell was fatally injured Saturday afternoon when he was struck by a automobile driven by H. O. Slink, a Lexington white man. Slink, who is held under a $500 bond, declares that the accident was unavoidable as the boy was riding on the rear of a wagon and suddenly jumped from the vehicle, and ran in front of his machine. The weekly meeting of the N. N. B. Club was held at the home of Mr. Clyde Thompson, Watts. As usual we had a very snappy meeting. All clubs are interested in some kind of sport.

Though one of the city's leading dentists, with well equipped offices at 843 Central Ave., he finds time some how to direct the activities of the local branch, of which he is president. He has been successful in welding all factions, together, regardless of color, and is to be congratulated upon the work he has done for the cause in spite of the demands his large and growing practice make upon his time. The eloquent statement of conditions in Los Angeles and his appeal to the Ministers Alliance has brought them into the fight, and with these staunch soldiers the battle is half won. MME P. ERLYNE OSBORNE HAS HIGH POSITION WITH WALKER CO. Word comes to this publication from Chicago that Mme. P. Eryne Osborne, national representative of the Mme. Walker Mfg. Co., has opened a great Beauty College there on January 18. She will be remembered in local dramatic, musical and religious circles as the talented and versatile woman who visted here a year ago in recitals incidental to the Walker "Round the World" contest. She has gradually been promoted in the Walker Co. until she occupies the laudable position she now holds. Among the other cities in which she has opened and thoroughly equipped colleges of beauty culture is a large one at Kansas City, Mo., which has proven a great success. She is accompanied on her tours of organization by Mrs. Marjorie Joyner, national instructor.

(H) Umbrella 1500 Residence Phone: (H) Umbrella 1500 C. W. CITY B. L. CITY Death stalked about on that night everywhere. The storm was fierce. Melville Gradley (a member of an old family, the grandest of Southern shores) lay dead mutilated in the "Big Honeys" with a bullet thru his brain, the work of an assassin in the cornhusk. Angie May, daughter of "Mammys," a wife of only a year and that night a mother, dies in the "quarters." Melville Gradley, wife also becomes a mother that night, but when the baby is brought to "Mammys," she discovers it to be dead. "Mammys fears to tell Missus," the dreadful calamity as she is very, very weak and worn over. Melville not returning (his death being specially hops from her), and the shock might kill her, so she conceives the idea to switch Angies live baby for Missus's dead one. She takes the lives, crying child apatias and places it in the arms of the little, weeping mother, then returns to the downstairs to inform Jim (Angie's husband) of his great loss. The following day Angie. May is buried with her supposed baby clasped close to her bed cold in death. Ethel Cartwright, beautiful daughter of Huntington Cartwright, between whose family and the Gradley's a bitter feud exists, is on riding one summer's afternoon when her pony is frightened by the discharge of a rifle and throws her in his maddened getaway from the overglades. She is helpless, cries for help to which Mel Gradley, hunting responds. He is very kind in assisting her home and is paranormal in his daily inquiries as to her condition. During her convalescence she sends her a little-bound pup which seems to take a liking to her immediately and refuses to be taken away, even snapping at Miss Cartwright and the servant—This little incident tickles Ethel and she forthwith names him "Dehance." Mel and Ethel remained friends for upwards of three years, meeting mostly, on their occasional rides, through the wooded country, at the Cartwright gate. On one of these occasion Mel professed his love for Ethel, while Huntington Cartwright hidden in a thicket close by, decides to send Ethel away to Memphis to a "finishing school." * * * * * Ethel finishes school with many honors. On her return Mel calls to renew their old friendship. He is met by Cartwright, who informs him that Ethel is dressing but retires supposedly to inform her of his presence. Cartwright finds a letter in the library, written by Ethel, intended for a Mr. Henry Clav Hicks whom she had met in Memphis, informing him of her desire to not renew or keep up their friendship. This Cartwright returns with and offers to Mel Gradley as being a "jill note" for him from Ethel. as being a "jill note" for him from Ethel. The shock was terrible; he hade Cartwright good-day and a couple weeks later registers in Paris. Five years pass with Ethel wondering all the while where Mel Gradley could be. She finally consents to marry Henry Hicks for family peace. Hicks takes to drinking heavily and so does Cartwright. On one of their numerous drink sprees Cartwright is thrown from his bed and dies two days later. Hicks who dislikes Defiance for his viciousness orders he boy to carry him to the quagmire, intending to lose him there. Juba, stooped below a low bench, bears everything. While here a glove slips from Hick's hand and falls on Juba's back. (Continued From Last Issue) Jube had early learned to pray, and pray he did until Hicks' footsteps had died away. Then for one of his years, and in his crippled condition, he made it rapidly to the stables. Nat, who had taken his time, arrived somewhat later, and found the brown hound tied in a stall. Hicks had arrived at the swamp and dismissed Nat. Defiance had seemed strangely subdued, no doubt owing to the fact that he was bound and helpless. As the mire began to do its deadly work, Hicks eyes met those of the hound, he glanced nervously about, where had he seen such an expression before? Then he had remembered that some years before, he and a party of friends had been drinking together, when a number of mounted men had ridden up in search of a runaway slave. Hicks and his friends cager for the chase, had joined them. Hicks being well mounted had been one of the first to close in on the man, at the edge of the swamp. The slave had turned and seeing his pursuers upon him, and the hounds not far behind, had leaped into the mire. Hicks riding up found the runaway to his armpits in the seaze, into his eyes had been that expression, so like this hound's; and Hicks drawing his revolver had shot him through the head. Hicks had then turned to the party and said he had fixed the slave for cheating the crowd of its vengeance. The recollection of this incident, had been rather implacent: The swamp seemed filled with strange noises. The hound whined in terror, as he slowly sank deeper into the mire. Then came prolonged howls. Again and again these penetrating howls resounded through the maze. Hicks sounded him. to have had the beast gagged as well as bound. Somehow he hadn't calculated on all this noise. Defiance hadn't howled before, neither from his kick or blow. Someone might hear the noise and come to investigate. Hicks reached for his revolver, he felt that he must stop the noise, but he was unarmed. Finally the found's head had disappeared, and the last black bubble burst from the ooze. Again the lying black surface of the mire was quite smooth, hiding in its treacherous bosom this near tragedy and no man knew how many real ones. With a shudder Hicks turned and hastened from the swamp. He hurried on through the clearing in the brake. Then as he grew more nervous broke into a run. Glancing to the right he saw the cane waver and bend, heard a rustling and cracking, that made his spine creep, and scalp tingle. Something came on crashing through the brake. It froze the blood in Hick's veins. Great beads of sweat stood out on his face, he trembled in every limb, he stopped. Defiance leaped from the cane into the clearing. Hicks turned and ran again in the direction from which he had so recently fled. Defiance, having sighted his quarry, bayed aloud. Then Hicks knew that it was no specter that stalked him but Defiance in the flesh. Defiance whose long, sharp teeth would tear his throat to shreds. Fear weighted his feet, yet on he ran, stumbling, his heart pounded his ribs with a hollow sound, his breath came in gasping sobs, and there the swamp was just ahead. Once more he turned, for the fraction of a second and saw Defiance. The hound's blood-shot eyes gleaned like live coals, his red tongue lolled from the side of his open mouth, his black jaws dripping, steam arose from his sweating body and his hot breath was upon Hicks, who plunged headlong into the mire. When the fever had taken its toll, and Mammy had made her dying confession to Jim, and Jim, in his turn had confessed Mel Gradley's parentage to a fellow slave and died, Samantha Porter had come to the Gradley mansion, to comfort Mrs. Gradley in her dying hour. When the Gradley will had been read, it was a settled fact that "Miss Samantha" had ceased to be "po' relashun." Mel Gradley arose from one of the tables in the well crowded room. 'The little maitre-d'hôtel slipped up, rubbing his dry hands together, inquired in broken English if he could be of further service to Monsieur. Having assured him that there was nothing more required, Mel stepped out into the warm, sweet twilight. He must see the artist that evening, the picture in the art rooms had so attracted him.

ATTORNEY BRINGS CHARGES AGAINST MORGAN HILL AND JUDGE OF CITY Small towns along the State highways of California may have to watch their step in fining motorists if the test case now in the courts is decided against the town of Morgan Hill, in the northern part of the State. Frequently complaints reach the Automobile Club of Southern California and other motoring organizations regarding small towns preying on motorists and using tourists as a source of community revenue. This was one reason for abolishing speed traps in the State. LOCAL ATTORNEY The test case that will be watched with interest by motorists all over the State was brought by George L. Sanders, a Los Angeles attorney, against Judge John C. Lewis of the Recorder's Court of Morgan Hill, and against the town of Morgan Hill. He asks the Superior Court for a writ of prohibition to quash what he claims was an illegal action against him on an unknown traffic charge in the Morgan Hill court. He also asks $250 damages for the time he had to spend in Morgan Hill and $500 for each 400-mile visit he has to make to Morgan Hill from Los Angeles during Hijigation over the case. The trial in Morgan Hill is suspended until the trial of the writ, which is set for the 28th inst. Relative to the charges, against Sanders, Judge Lewis is quoted in a San Jose paper as declaring the cast "as a part of a big plot on the part of some Southern California persons to fight the small towns of the north and that Sanders was nothing more than an undercover agent in this movement." MISUSES LAW Whatever the outcome of the test case, it is holding the interest of motorists generally, since there have been frequent charges against the small towns that have made arrests of drivers "for revenue only". In past investigations it has developed in some communities that traffic officers were compelled to make arrests enough to insure collection of fines sufficient to pay their own salaries and the expenses of the court. This practice, it is contended, is remote from the intent of the motor vehicle law, and so long as indiscriminate fining of motorists for revenue is permitted, it will tend to break down the entire structure of the California Vehicle Act. Beaston, Jan. 24—Does the Massachusetts compulsory automobile liability insurance law, which went into effect the 1st inst., encourage reckless driving? According to Wesley E. Monk, State Commissioner of Insurance, it does not. Under the present law two swords hang over the head of the reckless driver; the power of the office of the registrar of motor vehicles to revoke licenses, and the insurance companies, which will find reckless driving sufficient cause for refusing the insurance necessary for registration. Moreover, reckless driving will add to the risk of insurance companies and will result in higher insurance rates. In order to keep insurance rates down, says Commissioner Monk, operators will not only be careful in the future, they will also report all cases of reckless driving in order to protect their own interests. Accident prevention goes hand in hand with compulsory insurance and one of the most valuable results of the new law will be the masses of statistical information regarding the causes of accidents. With the acute condition of traffic congestion in the large cities comes need for a change in the old rules. There are times when, and places where, pedestrians should be allowed the use of the highways to the exclusion of all vehicles, and also there are times and places where vehicles should be allowed the use of the highway to the exclusion of pedestrians. The City, Council of this city has Two kinds of crosswalks are mentioned in the ordinance, marked and unmarked. In the marked crosswalks outside of the central traffic district, the pedestrian is given the right of way, and it is unlawful for the operator of any vehicle to drive into any such marked crosswalk while there is in it, upon the half of roadway on which the vehicle is traveling, any pedestrian engaged in crossing the roadway, until such pedestrian has passed beyond the path of such vehicle.

DALLAS, TEXAS, SEGREGATION DEFEATED ON BASIS OF LOUISVILLE CASE OF 1917 NEW YORK, Jan. 26—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue, has received from J. W.

Still another case hinging on the Tennessee question has arisen in New Orleans, and is pending before the Supreme Court. The case according to the Dallas Express, arise from the desire of a white corporation "to open up a new addition to Negroes in a district which, herefore, by a joint agreement, according to report, has been designated as white."

"It might be of interest to the Association to know that another attempt is being made to draw a state-wide segregation ordinance and the representatives are being approached for their views on the question. The measure is one in five which have to do with city planning. It appears likely to raise a formidable question which will be state-wide in its extent." Commenting no the above report, James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. said: "The National Office will follow these developments closely. Mequintine, it becomes more and more clear that in establishing the precedent laid down ten years ago through the Louisville Case, the N. A. A. C.

BREAKAS 'Mid lighted candles and a hugo basket of Poinsettas and ferns, December 21st at 11 A.M. 23 members of the Native Californians enjoyed Xmas breakfast at Burdette's Cafe. In spite of the weather, each member brought cheer and real California hospitality. Mrs. Mable Miller of New York was guest of the morning. After the breakfast the Club was entertained at the home of the President Lauretta Butler. The afternoon was spent in playing 500 and music by Mrs. Hattie Wilson. Other-guests were: Mrs. Lillian Kelso, Mrs. Elberta Bently and Mrs. Ethel Reeves. Delicious refreshments were served and the Californians sped away praising this rafa day. The Westside Hi-Y was organized Jan. 12, 1927. The newly elected officers are as follows: Wendell Hill, President; Lou's Hall, Vice-President; Leslie Johnson, Secretary; Joseph Williams, Treasurer; Bill Qualls, Athletic Manager. Under the leadership of this brilliant young man as president and his co-workers the club expects to put over a wonderful program for the year. The Royal resent Club had its first meeting of the year at the residence of Mr. Louis Hall, 1541 West 36th street. Wendell Hill, their president had the meeting going in great style. New names were brought in to become members of the club. We are now getting ready for our graduation party. After the meeting was over the rest of the evening was enjoyed by dancing. Mrs. Nettle Reese was hostess to the Mary Bethune Club, 1619 E. 22nd Street, with their president, Mrs. Wagner, presiding, with its new activities those attending may look forward to interesting programs. After business a delightful lancheon was served. 1. PROF. LEBLANC Blanc, "Daffy" about boys, and may rightly be termed a "Modern Socrates." He is a born musician, for years a teacher of band music. Prof. Blanc has started more young men and boys on a successful road of music than any other Professor of band music. He is a brilliant teacher. He art-like affection and his mastery art in handling the youth intrusted to his care, have won for him fame and admiration from both parents and boys. His ability to take the smallest lead and teach him to harp on the biggest instrument is indeed marvelous, but such is true. On the eve of his New Year's tasks, Prof. LeBlanc and his boy-band extend greetings and heartfelt good wishes to all as well as friends and patrons who have helped them close one of their most successful years of music and concerts. Some of them are historical, given at St. Paul Baptist Church on two occasions] employed two weeks by the Exposition Carnival held in the White Sox Park; took a leading part both in music and the big parade at the time of the corner stone laying of the new Y. M. C. A at which time the biggest gathering of the season was assembled. Returning from their vacation trip from Oakland and other northern parts, crowned with success and greater determination to reach the acme of musical heights; this band of musicians has not been able to serve all wanting them, on account of their many engagements it has been impossible to serve all. Closing their year's service and entertainments they gave several dances and concerts in the spacious New Eagle Hall of the California Eagle and the High School Auditorium at Riverside. We hope the people and music lovers will help to create a greater interest in music, help to preserve the identity of Negro musical geniuses of every kind and continue to add to the scroll in the halls of fame, such musical characters as Burleigh, Cook, Dett, Europe, Johnson, Jones and Hayes. Let Thomas R. LeBlanc and his boy-band continue to play on their instruments, the songs the angels sing and the great Southwest will hold her own with the galaxy in the panorama of musicians of the world and the California Eagle will bear the news to all parts. Race Girl Returns From Student Conference Juanita Ellsworth, popular co-ed at the University of Southern California, returned to Los Angeles several days ago after a trip to Milwaukee where, along with a group of other students, she represented her alma mater at the National Conference of Christian Associations. Miss Ellsworth and her colleagues left Los Angeles on Christmas day and met at the conference which opened on December the 28th, over three thousand student and faculty delegates from American Colleges and Universities. Among this group were over one hundred Negro students and professors, including Dr. Merceda Johnson, president of Howard University. The theme of the conference was centered on Religion, Science and Race, phases of which were skillfully discussed by Dr. Johnson, Dr. Stoddard Kennedy, rector to the King of England, Reimold Niebuhr, Kirby Pape and Dr. Robert A. Mulikan of the California Institute of Technology. Throughout the discussions, among leaders and student groups alike, there was a noticeable expression of a desire to reform the present chaotic conditions of the world among institutions and races. There was a definite determination which worked towards a better racial understanding and a consequent recognition of the rights and liberties of all races. Southern white students particularly indicated their profound interest in America's vital problem of race and demonstrated their disposition to effect a new social order through their program of hristian education. The students set their faces against future wars and condemned the attitude of national leaders who, directly or indirectly, were refusing to accept the condition of peace. Nothing, it was asserted, was more menacing to the peace of men than race antisomnism which Dr. Mordecai Johnson in a notable address continued, were not sectional but world wide. He maintained that the darker peoples desired and insisted upon "freedom from economic exploitation; political freedom; educational opportunities and the lifting of the stigma of inferiority." The church, he declared, "must emancipate men and eradicate methods to break down the foulish berters of race. It should not be betrayed." The conference was tedious, too strong spiritual enthusiasm, and it not, according to Miss Elwisworth, an insecurist in character of the useful outlook for which American a religious intelligence has been asking. Los Angeles is fortunate in having so vegetable and representative a young leader of the race selected and sent by college to this significant convention of Christian culture and courage. On last Thursday evening at its new home, 1101 Central Ave., The Republican Protective League was host to a de luxe gathering of its friends who turned out to its first social gathering. Amis flowers and gala decorations to the tune of the latest dance music, featured by Johnny Mitchell's orchestra just returned from Honolulu, the guests of the club enjoyed one of the greatest evenings of their lives. A banquet fit for ye gods was served in true de luxe style, which was pronounced the best which has ever been given on the Coast. Therefore the Republican Protective League starts out under the most favorable suspies as not only a force in political endeavor, but for real and wholesome entertaining as well. The following are the members of the Executive Committee of this organization: Wm. Qualls, Pres.; Dr. F. A. Gordon; Dr. A. Bauman; Dr. S. S. Turner; Dr. F. R. Whitman; Atty. Fred Masoke; C. E.

Race Man Shareholder In Large Cleaning and Dyeing Plant The Northside Cleaning Corporation located at 4109 Harbourbilt street has among its shareholders a member of our race in the person of Mr. WmT Gallerson of Palomares Ave. Some eighteen months ago he invested $100 in the above mentioned corporation now operating successfully and valued at $130,000, and has used his influence in placing several race members in the plant. He reports the probability of placing more of us in the near future. It may, here be said that Mr. Gallerson has made a splendid record in the short time he has lived among us, Six years ago he arrived in Los Angeles with very little money, and a great deal of ambition. Through persistent effort and careful management he has made for himself an enviable place in the field of his activity and certainly deserves our congratulations.

Wallace has pastored the First Baptist Church at Venice for fifteen months. The church under his pastorate has experienced a tremendous success, considering circumstances. He is highly esteemed by the constituency of the great W. B. A., for his willing and efficient service, and is noted for his pupil ability.

We now come to a turn in the story, the Reverend has tendered his resignation and will preach his farewell sermon on the Fifth Sunday of this month. Let us pray that the God of our hope will are long provide a pascrist for the said church and a church or the Reverend gentleman. Newspapermen's Reception To Captain Glenn, Retired, Magnificent Success The United Negro Press of Los Angeles scored a signal success in the Reception given by them honoring Captain W. M. Glenn, who retired with honors after serving the Los Angeles Police Department for nearly a quarter of a century. The far famed Palm Gardens of the huge Bronx Hotel was filled to capacity for the occasion. It was indeed a fitting tribute paid to the faithful and honorable discharge of duty and each one present seemed to join in the spirit of the occasion that this was indeed an epoch making event. Music was furnished by the famous Créole Orchestra and interspersed numbers appropriate to the occasion throughout the program of the evening. The Bronx, entertainers Miss Leslie Walton and her co-worker also sang several very entertaining numbers for which they received tumultuous applause. High poles officials, Fire Department and Judges graced the occasion as well as a representative from his honor, Mayor George L. Gryffin. It was nigh to 10 o'clock when Editor Free C. Williams of the Pacific Defender called the vast assembly to order and introduced Editor J. B. Ross of the California Eagle as Master of Ceremonies. Mr. Ross without any ceremony proceeded to start the program a going by calling upon Lleut Chas. Broady for an autobiographic reading of the letter composed by Lleut Jesse Kimbrough and himself upon the occasion of Capt. Glenn's retirement. The next Speaker, was by Mr. Dudley Lindsay, representing Mayor Cryer, following Mr. Lindsay was Inspector of Police Finlayson, Captain L. L. McCary, Fire Chief Lewis, Judge W. D. McConnell, Judge Pope, Mrs. Georgia Robinson, Rev. A. P. Shaw, Dr. H. C. Hudson, Ms. Lulu Slaughter, Mrs. Clara Hubert, L. G. Robinson, Lient. W. L. Stevens (retired), Capt. W. M. Glenn (retired), the guest of honor. Los Angeles Police Department, Nation Divison, December 11, 1926. "We feel proud in the realization that our varied dispositions and individual shortcomings, which often reached the point of impertinence, are but the natural human weakness, and not the vindictive attitude of personalities. "A great General, in bidding farewell to his officers, upon being relieved of his command, made the following remarks, which impressed me as an open confession of a man to men. "Gentlemen, I have passed the age of usefulness. I am soon to be laid on the shelf. I would be lying to say I welcome this day. "I wish to thank you for your belief in me, for with this belief you have succeeded with me. Had you not believed in me, you would have succeeded in spite of me. This perhaps you did, for I have never told you I believed in you." 'Most of the time I have been unreasonably hard, utterly void of consideration, but I exacted duty as I saw it, and executed my authority without fear or personal feeling. The patience with which you served under me has borne its fruit. Collectively you have moulded and developed a great outfit. Individually you have shown a true Christian spirit of forgiveness, far more than is expected of soldiers. Were it possible to live my life over, I could try another method. As it is, I must step out, and in my declining years be content with the peace of old age, or regret in the obscurity of inactivity. 'While I have never told you I believed in you, Gentlemen, for forty years I have never doubted you. For forty years I have staked my life on you. 'God held and preserve you to fulfill your oath to your flag and country. 'Gentlemen and Officers: I bid you soldier's farewell. As your retiring Commander, I SALUTE YOU.' "Captain, we cannot write a glowing tribute of flattering generalities. This is but a feeble effort to express our feeling of the sacredness of our oath, to God, Man, and our state. We feel that we have given you the best that is with us. "The frailties of human nature are ever present, whether expressed or implied and I trust that you will judge our hearts and not our lips, our actions and not our thoughts, and remember, though we often misunderstood you, we never laid down on you. Whatever hour day or night when duty called, we answered. "Captain, we have kept the faith. That sacred oath to God, Man and our state we hold inviolate. In your massive let us bid you a Policeman's farewell. As our retiring Captain and Commander, WE SALUTE YOU. "Respectfully, "Lieut. JESSE KIMBROUGH, "Lieut. C. S. BROAD."

The Borestone Mountain Fox of which he boasts as having an exclusive litter are ready to pelt at the age of six months, with a yearly average of four to a litter, which any fox raiser would appreciate. The Borestone Silver Fox furs retail in American and European cities at from $750 to $1500 each. The wholesale demand is most constant on New York and London markets. Dr. Whittaker is to be complimented for his new undertaking which he speaks much for his ever quest for other fields of adventure. The Dunbar Hospital of Los Angeles is also the place of his uniting efforts to establish for his people a place of comfort during their convalescing and for those who need surgical attention.

The cutie down the street says she would have gone in the "Catalina Swim" but the stake wasn't high enough. The dancing party of little Miss Chauceyne Dudley and Elizabeth Townsend, acting as hostesses, was quite a success, although two of the young men had to go down the street to settle a little difference of opinion. Mr. William Crain gave a little dancing party in connection with four other boys and entertained ten very prominent young people. Everyone had a very good time. The Girl Reserve Basketball team will be formed next Saturday morning. The girls are very enthusiastic about having a team and we hope great things for it. Costumes are being discussed by the girls for the coming Vaudeville. Speaking of the grand and glorious Catalina swim it behooves us (ahem) to extend our heartiest congratulation to our Sport Editor, who was among the privileged few who watched and recorded the progress of the swimmers. Mr. Levette, ladies and gentlemen. Speaking of Mr. Levette, we would like to know where he got such a red eye. Was it from the door knob (it's always the door knob, y'know) or grease flicked into the eye by an exhausted Cat-swimmer? Miss Lucylle Hyson, cutie beautiful of Poly Hi, wants to know what the studios do in 7th period.

Maids The Mails have been the victims of a hard blow by the recent change in the operation of the DelLuxe Union Pacific train, on account of te Limtides stopping at Ogden it will only require 10 regular maids; many hired th's summer will either be out of work or placed on the extra list, which cannot support over two extra maids and keep them going. The change will place the following maids on the extra board: Agna Eckton, B. Hall, M. Boone, L. A. Green, M. Bradshaw, Mamie Walker and Marie Carter. The 10 regular maids are as follows: T. Upton, Mabel Ruffian, A. Haney, E. B. Jasper, Hazel Robinson Lillian Gilmore, Ella Ellis, Hazel L Lewis, Magnolia Pickens and Blanche Mattson. --- Maid Aileen Matthews Refires We have lost one of our charming maids for good and all as Miss Aileen Matthews has sent in her resignation, having seen the windy city, and every thing that is in it that was worth whil'e seeing, the charming miss has at last decided to settle down for life in dear old sunny California, she has a red hot Ford coupe and gets 50 miles to the gallon between Los Angeles and Long Beach. Farewell, fair maid, the different crews will miss you. Maid C. C. Pearce Quits the Road It must be an epidemic, or did we smell a mouse, when we got off the job, or was it the cold weather? Maybe the tr ps were too tiresome, or too borosome, which? Anyway, Maid C. C. Pearce makes number 2 to leave the knights of the rail. We wonder! Maid E. B. Jasper has requested a ninety day leave of absence. Now, Frank Jasper will not have to do his own cooking, what a pleasure and relief. Boy! I envy you. Maid Mamie Walker was injured in an automobile accident and is still confined to her home. Maid Ethel Turner who has been on the sick list at the New Bronx is now fully recovered. Illinois Law Effects Maids The state of Illinois requires that any person practicing beauty culture is required to obtain certificate of registration. The expense of this registration is $15.00 including examination certificate and fees for the first year, with a renewal charge of $1 for each year thereafter. This includes marceling, and trimming of hair, as well as facial treatment, and our maids who are not registered will refrain from perfoming such work while in this state; so much for this work that we are not permitted to care it will have very little effect on them as they hit the state during the night, and are not permitted to do any work at night any way, so do not shed any tears over this. However, it will seriously effect the maids operating East out of Chicago. Omaha Supt. of Pullman Co. Pays Visit Mr. K. C.

There is no reason ‘in the world for this situation to exist. In many public places signs suddenly go up and on due in- veatigation it is found out that the conduct of the rowdy youth of the race has been the underlying cause, by theif boisterous conduct and their bullying attitude when requested to desist. ; Within a stone’s throw of this establishment in the last few days one of our customers has been compelled to close his place of business on account of the rowdyism of thege young men _ which drove away so many of his regular clstomers that he was compelled to elose. ‘s , Another instance is that of the Tivola Theatre on Central ‘Avenue. Their conduct was such that the open door was closed. Eyen now this same-lass is threatening to bring dire results at -the A-Mus-U Theatre et Jefferson and Centra! where their rowdyism has been such as-to drive away ihe customers. This elass have, by their conduct made it almost impossible to rent any of the large dancing pavillions, and they seem bound to destroy and bieak up any public place where they 2re wont to congregate. -..’ This situation has reached the point where drastic action -ig called for. If the parents of these youthful destructionists are unable to counsel them, the strong arm of the law must’ be ealled upon, and that means the jeil house and rock pile. The proposition is squarcly un to the parents to avoid a regrettable “situation. , ‘WOODSON FOR LIBERIA , 33 We are strong for Lawyer George H. Woodson of Des Moines for Minister to Liberia.

W. CITY: R. P. CITY A chilly November evening dada the author and our very dear friend Wheaton, a brilliant attorney, in his frequent collaborations at the White House. Both sullying the warmth and cheery glow of an open March house reminiscent and tellingly—especially our friend Wheaton, who volunteers and vouchers for a story told to him by his grandfather, a slave, which, after hearing it, is to reproduce, and for lack of a name I name it "Defiance." Death stalked about on the night everywhere. The storm was here. Malviya Gradley is number of an old family, the pioneer of South India, who dead upstairs in the Rif House, with bells that his brain, the work of a monk, in the wombing Angie May, daughter of *Milimay*, a wife of only a year and that night a mother, died in the "wombast." Melvilla Gradley a wife also becomes a mother this night, but when the baby is brought to *Milimay* she discovers it to be dead. "Milimay" faces it *Milimay* "the dreadful calamity as she is very, very weak and worried over Malviya's not restraining the death being carefully taken from her), and the shock might kill her, so she conceals the idea to switch Angie, a live baby for Milimay's dead one. She takes the live, crying upstairs and places it in the arms of the little, weeping mother, then returns to the downstairs to inform Jim (Angie's husband) of his great loss. The following day Angie May is buried with her supposed baby clapped close to her bosom cold in death. Missa Sammantha Forte, distant relative of Man Gradley ("po rehaulan" as they were called by the Gradley slaves) undertakes to hold up Man Gradley's (now nineteen years) many achievements at college to her boys for animation, which does not have a very warm reception among them. Ethel Cartwright, beautiful daughter of Huntington Cartwright, between whose family and the Gradley's a bitter feud exists, is out riding one summer's afternoon when his pony is frightened by the discharge of a rifle and thrown her in his midnight get-away from the overglades. She is helpless, cries for help, to which Mel Gradley, hunting, responds. He is very kind in assisting her home and is persistent in his daily inquiries as to her condition. During her consalence she sends her a little hound pup which seems to take a liking to her immediately and refuses to be taken away, even snapping at Mel Cartwright and the servant. This little incident tickles Ethel and she forthwith names him "Delance." Mel and Ethel remained friends for upwards of three years, meeting mostly on their occasional fides through the wooded country, at the Cartwright gate. On one of these occasion Mel professed his love for Ethel, while Huntington Cartwright hidden in a thicket close by, decided to send Ethel away to Memphis to a "finishing school" * * * * * Ethel finishes school with many honors. On her request Ethel calls to renew their old friendship. He is met by Cartwright who informs him that Ethel is dressing but retires supposedly to inform her of his presence. Cartwright finds a letter in the library, written by Ethel, 'intended for a Mr. Henry. Clay Hicks whom she had met in Memphis, informing him of her desire to not renew or keep up their friendship. -This, Cartwright returns with and offers to Mel Gradley as being a "ill note" for him from Ethel.' (Continued from Last Issue) Mel Gradley read the note, his, hand trembled, the letters twisted themselves grotesquely before his dimming eyes; they resembled a most difficult Greek translation, that he had once mastered at school; then he looked straight at Cartwright, "Good day, sir," and turning, with head erect, walked down the steps and out of the Cartwright gates. Melville Gradley, Jr., Gradleyville, Tenn., U. S. A.—With an unsteady hand Mel wrote the above on a hotel register in Paris. PART IV. Time passed quickly and events shaped themselves as rapidly. Five years had gone and still no tidings of Mel Gradley had reached Ethel. In the meanwhile Henry Hicks had become Ethel's husband. There seems no way other than this to express it. Having left "no stone unturned" to accomplish his object, Huntington Cartwright, with his inattentive thirst for liquor, had been a sore twist to Mrs. Cartwright. When Henry Hicks had annexed himself to her family bringing with him an additional thirst, equat if not greater than that of her husband's Mrs. Cartwright had become a nervous wreck, and had finally succumbed to one of her nervous attacks. After the first year or, to after his marriage, Hicks had lapsed from the ardent, romantic lover, to a most prosaic husband. He spent a great deal of time with his friends, and when at home devoted himself to the decanter. Ethel, left a great deal to herself, found plenty of time in which to indulge her one opinion—Art. crop in hand. He had noticed what he thought to be a quag mire on the edge of the cane brake, and had resolved to ride down and make sure. As he approached the stables, he found the large doors closed. At the side a smaller one stood open, and across the opening lay a hound. "Get up," demanded Hicks of the hound, at the same time he planted a vicious kick in the animal's ribs. The hound leaped to his feet, Hicks swung the crop and caught him over the shoulder. Before either could do further hurt, a boy ran out and collared the hound; shouting "Down D'fance, down 'suh!"

He hoped that the mire was there. Things could be thrown into mire and leave no trace. If Hicks had dined heartily on ducks, Cartwright had more than consumed his share of drinks. He ziggzagged across the veranda with a sort of dot and dash step, secured his coat and hat, and made his uncertain way to the stables. He muttered something about horses legs being better than his own. When mounted he chuckled to his horse: "Well ol' boy yu got me lead on." Instinctively his horse knew that the brown mare had gone to the brake, so on he trotted in that direction. Cartwright had taken no notice of the direction but seemed from time to time to recognize familiar objects. AN. UNUSUAL SNAPPY PROGRAM 8 P. M. to 10 P. M. DANCING 10 P. M. to A. M.

He looked at the ground as the horse went on, and there almost under the horse's feet, another dead duck. Then a cloud seemed to envelope his path—no he had been mistaken, there was no vapor, only a man and dog. "Good day suh" called Cartwright; then with surprise he noted the gathering dusk, "Good evenin' suh!" he corrected. The man made no answer, in fact appeared not to notice him. The dog picked up one of the ducks, and the man raised his head. Cartwright nearly lost his seat. He swore an oath and drew his revolver, "Mel Gradley, he shouted, I got you" and fired. Stupidly his bleared eyes gazed at the upright figure he had called Gradley, there he stood. A cold sweat broke out on Cartwrights' face, he stood in his stirrups and emptied every chamber at the man who obstructed his path. The revolver dropped from his nerveless hand, kicking his horse and shouting he turned and plunged through the brake. Shouting like a madman and punishing his horse cruelly with his heels, he urged the animal on. Striking the clearing now thoroughly frightened, the horse reared and threw him headlong. Cartwright lived two days longer, and in that time revealed to Ethel again and H. WEINBERG.

If it is not cleaned the soot and carbon which accumulate will plug up the holes in the plates and tubes, causing the back pressure which decreases the power of the engine. Mending Leak in Radiator A radiator leak so located that it cannot conveniently be mended may be plugged temporarily by the use of a thick paste made of lithage and glycerine. The heat of the radiator will cause this paste to set in in a few minutes, after which neither hot nor cold water will affect it. Litharge may be obtained from any drug store in powder form. To Remove Tight-Fitting Studs When tight-fitting studs are countered, they may be easily removed without damage to the threads. Screw two nuts on the stud and lock them together by running one nut against the other. Then by placing a wrench on the lower nut, the stud may be turned out. When it is de- sired to tighten the stud, the operat- ion is in the opposite direction, with the wrench on the upper nut. When a "Skid" is Encountered As a rule, skidding is not dangerous if the car is traveling at a low rate of speed and traffic on the street's not heavy. It is easy to stop a slow running car and, if the brakes do not stop it, the impact usually does little harm. Learn to control the car when it is skidding. Shift into second gear. If there is not time to shift or if, be- come confused, it is no fault of the car, steer in the direction of the skid so as to straighten out the car, if pos- sible. As a rule, the average motorist forgets everything and presses as hard as he can hears the brake and clutch pedals. Use the brakes alone and look ahead with a view of preventing the car striking any object. Guard. Against. This Deadly Gas. With cold weather here there are additional dangers that must be guarded against by the motorist. One of these is carbon monoxide gas. It should be remembered that this gas is deadly and is rendered more dangerous by the fact that it is colorless and odorless. The gas is given off in the exhaust of the engine and every motorist should take precautions to avoid its fatal effect. It is the practice of some motorisse "warm up" their engines in garages. When this is done the doors should be opened, as the building fill quickly with carbon monoxide gas and all persons who inhal this are affected. The exhaust of the average engine will permeat the atmosphere in a single closed garage and render it deadly in three minutes. Every year a large number of motorists die from the effects of this gas and everyone should take precautions against it. Never run an engine in a closed garage. CHARLES CLIFTON President National Automobile Chamber of Commerce Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-seven will be a motor transport year. Automobiles will be employed increasingly in every kind of transportation service. There is evidence on all sides that the motor car has advanced from the stage of being a general convenience to a point where living conditions are predicated on having this mode of travel for exgrorye in the family. It might be said that 1837 will be a year of the two-car family. But that statement is indeed and does not go beyond the fact that the equation, personal Transport The National Automobile Chamber of Commerce recently sent 10,000 of the United States taken from blazes at the United States taken from blazes at random. Every per cent of those who answered stated that their families owned more than one car. While the bulk of them were two-car families, some homes had three and four automobiles. A man in Brazil ind. for instance, has one car for the hired men, one for his son in business one for himself in business, one one for his wife. Hardy report that one car is used by the children in going to school, particularly where the family lives in a rural section. On the farm many married are given where one automobile is a general utility car for building milk and other products and the other machine is used by the family. Foundation Stones Bearing in mind the significance of this situation, the strong features of 1822 appear to be: (1.) The domestic market. (2.) The trade abroad. (3.) The sales values of low prices. (4.) Improved farm conditions. History of the past ten years has shown us conclusively that the greatest guarantee of business in a large volume of motor vehicle registrations. Why are these families owning more than one car? Because the very structure of business and society is based on the assumption that everyone has an automobile. Suburbs are built radiating from the towns, and from the railroads on the presumption that a motor car will always be available for those living in such homes. Consequently, the wife and young people need motor transportation just as much as the wage earner of the family. These are a few sections of the country where the transportation situation is not typical. In New York City, in downtown Chicago, in Philadelphia, to some degree, in Detroit, the urgency of automobile ownership is not as pressing as in other parts of the country.
