1879 CALIFORNIA EAGLE 1927 Editor Visits Northern Section WEDDING EVENT OF SUNDAY WEEK AGO COUPLE SPENDING HONEYMOON AT SAN DIEGO THE WEDDING Edito ON THE WING In our swing around the circle leaving Los Angeles on the 31st inst. we arrived in Oakland the morning of September 1st. We crossed the bay and passed out of the Ferry Building to the environs of John Taylor's Skip stand at which he was watching the many cash customers and at the same time superintending the erection of another lunch stand not one hundred feet distant. For his loyalty and great service these concessions have been his reward by the present state administration. Be it known alo- so that this recognition is not to be passed lightly for in dollars and cents their valuation runs into the thousands of dollars. Passing on we found the new location of Attorney Oscar Hudson on Merchant street. After his memorable trip to Monrovia this eminent barrister is getting located by taking his former station in his profession. Continued on page 6. WEDDING EVENT OF COUPLE SPENDING HON Mr. and Mrs. T. Hyde Wade, whose wedding was one of the season's brilliant events, are spending their honeymoon at San Diego, California, and, after their return will make their home in South Los Angeles. Mrs. Wade was formerly Miss Ernestine Cleopatra Jones, very attractive daughter of Mrs. Geneva Jones of 1836 East 52nd Street, the double ring ceremony being performed at St. Odelia Catholic Church, Father Schlecht officiating. The bridal party consisted of Mrs. Geneva Jones, Misses Cornelia Edwards, Thelma B. Porter, Emma Lee Sayars, Eather and Amael Matilda, and Erma Jones; Mr. and Helen; Messrs. Gonza Wade, Leon Edwards, John Prowd, J. B. Bass, Matthieu and Virgil Morrow, and after the ceremony occupied the guest table at the Christian Tavern where an elaborate reception was in order. The bride was charming in a frock or white creme de chine heavily headed in rhinestones, pearls and silver beads and wore a vell of tails and orange blossoms being entangled into a horse shoe and held in place with a cluster of pearls. She carried a large bouquet of white sweet peas, orange blossoms, and lilies of the valley. ```markdown ``` Rush Prisoner To Jackson, Tennessee, For Safe Keeping Jackson, Tenn., Sept. 15.—Tom Alen, age twenty, was brought here early Sunday morning and placed in jail on a charge of raping a white girl in Brownsville, Tennessee. The prisoner was arrested Saturday night and placed in the Brownsville jail, but due to the high feeling against him it was thought prudent to bring him here. Alen denied the charge. WILL JESUS COME AGAIN TO EARTH IN BODILY FORM? Come and hear an answer to this vital question at Christian Missionary Alliance, Branch No. 2, 1432 E. 25th street. Rev. E. M. Scott of Oberlin, Ohio, speaking. SUNDAY WEEK AGO EYMOON AT SAN DIEGO The maid of honor, Miss Cornellie Edwards was dainty in a frock of green trimmed with orchid plumes. Gonna Wade, bother of the groom was the best man. Upon the arrival of tip bride and groom, they marched into the Tavern to the familiar wedding march played by -Miss T. B. Porter, after which "O Perfect Love" was sung by Miss Anna Mal Griffith. The bridal party then repaired to the bridal table. "The Christian Tavern, scene of the reception, was beautifully decorated in white and pink sweet peas—directly over the bridal table hung a great white horsehoe of white sweet peas. The service was carried out in horse-shoe style, the ice cream being in horse shoe shape with "good luck" inside. Mr. and Mrs. Wade are highly respected young people of this community. Mr. Wade is a landscape partner and Mrs. Wade, before marriage, secretary for the California Eagle. The Wades are to be happily domiciled in their new and beautiful bungalow in South Los Angeles upon their return from San Diego. The many friends of the bride living in and out of Los Angeles are wishing her a happy matrimonial voyage.

Come early and hear this powerful woman Gospel preacher.—DR, L. B. BROWN, Pastor. Detroit, Mich., Sept. 44. For the sixth successive term, between ten and twelve thousand Baptists, members of the National Baptist Convention, incorporated meeting for its 47th annual session, elected Dr. L. K. Williams, pastor of Olivet Baptist Church, Chicago, president, and placed in office again all the other executive officers of the convention, at a meeting held here Thursday morning. The custom of electing the president at the afternoon meeting of the first day was not adhered to this year, although there was no noticeable opposition in the office. Some of the candidates that the state concessions had not been held and that that caused the carrying over of the election from Wednesday to Thursday. (By The Associated Negro Press) Pittsburgh, Pa., Sept. 15. — Society has been dedicated to the mournant, that Mrs. Mae Walker, heiress to the Walker million, has been married to Marion Perry, one of Pittsburgh's most prominent, and promising attorneys, Mrs. Mae Walker Gordon Jackson was the former wife or Dr. Gordon Jackson. The quiet wedding which joined the couple has been contrasted with the famous, and some are bold enough to declare "ill fated" million dollar wedding hold when Miss Walker was joined in wedlock with Dr. Gordon Jackson, a few years ago. While friends are congratulating the couple and wishing them all of the prosperity and everything, a few intimate friends of the groom are felicitating him upon finally "tanning an heiress." It was whisper-A a few years ago that Mr. Perry was making a strong bid for the hand of an Ohio house of all gossip, but a "fraternity brother of his won the fair lady." DISPENSATION IS GRANTED LOS ANGELES CAMPS BY: ATTY, CURTIS C. TAYLOR (Commander Camp No. 5) The annual membership campaign of Los Angeles camps of the American Woodmen was launched September 1st, and will continue for three months closing November 30th with a mammoth log rolling and "Feast in the Forest" at which time it is expected that between three and four hundred new members will be inducted into the realm of Woodcraft. The growth of the American Woodmen since its advent in Los Angeles has been almost phenomenal for since September, 1922, approximately eighteen hundred members have joined the Order in this city and has made necessary the organization of three camps to facilitate the local activities. The splendid field force under the able supervision of Mr. Ben H.

To the Editorial Staff, California Eagle: We are indeed pleased to note the steady increase of Display Advertising appearing in the columns of your publication. At last, you have awakened the large down-town business establishments to the real value of Eagle Advertising. The large display advertisements of such firms as' F. W. Woolworth Co., Yellow Cab Co., New York Hat Store, Typewriter Inspection Co., and many other critical advertisers are indeed a splendid sign of progress. What about this increase? What is causing it? Don't worry. "There's a reason." Such firms as those mentioned above have long ago ceased to experiment with advertising. Their trained advertising men place ads. only where they know results will follow. Why did they select Eagle advertising? Here is the reason: The trained eye of the Publicity Expert needs only to pursue the reading columns of "The Soaring Eagle" and therein he finds reasons galore for his just decision. His inspection reveals the intricacies of a full and well balanced first-class newspaper. An interesting, reliable life of the people it represents. Their toys, their clothes, their books, their ambitions, their social and business activities; and last but not least, a paper with a distinct cultural policy: "The race: First, Last, and Always." A kaleidoscope of intensity, the heart-throbs of a people, the life of a community. Is it a wonder that he selects The Eagle in preference to other mediums or advertisement? Is it a wonder that the community at large is heralding "The Scarring Eagle" in her upward flight? Nay, nay, my friends, your persistent efforts of the past twenty years have justly earned this meager expression of confidence. Soar on, Old Eagle! We're with you! Your thousands of admirers are watching you, and when you reach the highest pinnacle of success, deep down in history we'll place a mark: Success—faithfully deserved, creditably earned, and justly attained. The faithful Old Eagle and its staff of efficient co-workers, we are indeed proud of you! You are really doing things that make of us a better Race and incidentally you are serving as a beacon light for the future generation. Yours, for more Salient Successes, GEORGE W. CALDWELL. IF it were not for such expressions of appreciation from the keenly alert, such as George W. Caldwell, we would at times feel that our efforts, at least in part, had been in vain. Realizing that this note of recognition is not prompted by any selfish motive but is merely a spontaneous outburst from one who is ever ready to give credit when and wherever it is merited, we receive it in the same spirit in which it is given—and we pass it on, Mr. Caldwell, with the hope that others just now aspiring to do something for the Race in a business sense, be inspired to persevere, because of the encouragement you give so freely. We are thinking of firms and individuals making the same strides towards the goal which we seek to reach—and what we hope for ourselves, we hope for them. WHILE on the side-walk this week, starting at 9th and Central Avenue, we looked in on Baumann's Drug Store, No. 1, sodas were going freely and business on the whole seemed to be good. Just across from Baumann's on the Southwest corner of 9th and Central is a hat shop, owned and manned by a Jew who came over from Hollywood more than a year ago, and seeing the possibility of filling a need that had been entirely overlooked by members of the group in this section got busy, the store room on this corner was renovated, nugly painted—bright red, green and other attractive colors—hats galore filled the windows, a little announcement advertisement appeared in the local race papers. "That's all I need," says the Jew, "we don't have to advertise in Negro papers, to get Negro trade, just grin at them and they are yours for keeps." THE REMEDY—Are there not an hundred women in the race who a hundred dollars a piece who are red-blooded enough to protect our women in interest in this field of hat making?— ```markdown ``` O UPTON'S RAILROAD CLATTER BY Chas. L. Upton The Railroad Clatter congratulates the following porters on the anniversary of their birth this month: (your birth stone is the 'Sapphire-Antidote for madness) C. James, C. Jones and S. V. Pinky. SHASTA LIMITED LEAVES TRACK Running an hour and five minutes late, the Shasta Limited, crack train of the Southern Pacific lines was wrecked at Zamora, twelve miles north of Woodland last week. One passenger was seriously injured and dozen suffered bruises and contusions from the severe shaking they received as seven steel coaches went over on their sides. The breaking of six feet of steel rail was believed to have caused the accident local Southern Pacific officials declared after receiving reports or preliminary investigations. Six feet of the ball or top of the rail, were reported ripped away from the base of one track. The fact that the engine and one baggage car had passed over the track without mishap gave rise to reports that the train was traveling at unusual speed. This makes the second wreck within two weeks on the Southern Pacific lines; the first one was that of the West Coast Limited, and was mentioned in this column last week. Both trains operate to Portland and Seattle. The West Coast out of Los Angeles. The West Coast out of San Francisco. The two wrecks come one after another brings to mind that on August 29th two separate wrecks occurred on the Pennsylvania. The Broadway Limited, Chicago to New York De Luxe train was wrecked just east of Gallitzin tunnel, 12 miles east of Altoona, Pa., and shortly thereafter the Westbound Broadway Limited was wrecked at Wilmore, Pa. In these wrecks two enginemen were killed and a score or persons injured. The traveling public are beginning to wonder, where if, any, place will they be safe. If they go by air they are subject to fall and get killed; if they go by train it might happen in the East as well as the West; if they go by auto they are subject to going over some ravine; if they walk they are ill able to get run over. So many have come to the conclusion that the safest way is to stay at home and even there, if they live in Illinois, they are in fear of a cyclone, if they live in the West, they are afraid or an earth quake and if they live down south the great flood disaster is kept constantly before their minds. It apparently seems to be merely a matter of which way you want to die. SAFETY FIRST men, PLEASE COPY. FIGHT SPECIALS KEEP PORTERS GUESSING The Fight Special itinerary continues to be a mystery as far as an officer are concerned. Many have given their names in for the choice bit of travel but so far as having a bonified guarantee that they are going is a horse of another color. If all of the porpoys I have heard say are going on these fight special, Mr. Ross better close up the Los Angeles district until after the fight, because he won't have porters enough to run it. The writer thinks that there will be a many disappointed porter on the 18th when the specials start their race to Chicago. Somebody's got to keep house, and the worst of it is that mysterious Mr. Ross will not divulge who that somebody is. JACK WORTHEN LOSES COUSIN Jack Worthen operating on the San Diego line has been off for the past week on account of the death of a cousin, who died while being taken to a hospital for an operation. SPECIAL TRAIN CRACKS RECORD RACING DEATH In an effort to reach the bedside of Col. J. M. Daniels, who is dying in Atlantic City, N. J., his wife chartered a special train which arrived at the shore resort in record time. Pennsylvania railroad officials announced that the locomotive, Pullman, Chair car and day coach, which cost Mrs. Daniels $60, clipped 12 minutes off of the fastest running time ever made from New York City to the Atlantic Coast. BOYS WILL BE BOYS. The writer was driving by Ringling Bros. Circus the other night when he noticed a trail of peanut shells on Washington Blvd. Being curious to know how far and long the trail of goo goo peas would go, he followed them with an eagle eye. On and on they went, until finally they led him right up to his friend King's door. Mr. King is now the headman on the San Diego tourist car, that is, since Mr. L. High vacated the throne for the Fresno line, so naturally there was no other conclusion to come to but that Mr. King went to see the White elephant, and while therein feasted on goo goo peas until he arived home sometime during the night. But then, boys will be boys. KING HIGH MAY TAKE BACK TOURIST CAR THRONE In the mighty struggle for existence the vast territory which the former tourist car King, L. High, took in a hard fought battle of bidding namely, the Pruno line, in being threatened solely by the enemy. In the last mile night fight F. A. Neal was bummed, which greatly weakened King. I. High's force. It is thought that the surrender came powerful migh tottaring King High from the Pruno throne. The blood thirsty battle cry of—it would be long now! is constantly arising in King High's ears and as it is in public meeting that time of the day when all former Kingdom shall exist in front a plush barnhouse, but King High are fondly come, the fine woodwork, the waterwheel, the waterwheel. King High are a blood thirsty by battle on the extra board. At this welling the enemies are in the first line trenchers and King High, brave man, is calmly waiting for the zero hour.

This is a wonderful trip and I will tell you more about same in a later issue. Travel via Union Pacific Ry. has been heavier East bound this summer than last summer. Therq were a great many movie picture corporations that shot scenes in Zion National Park and in the vicinity of Cedar City. Travel to Zion National Park by the Union Pacific has been 20% better than last summer. The installation of the new block system between Salt Lake City and Los Angeles at a cost of $70,000.00 has added much to the service of this road. Here and There Mrs. Alma A. Powell of San Jose, Calif., who has been the house guest of Mrs. Hazel Lewis in Normandale street has returned to her home reporting having had a wonderful trip. Ten diners of the very latest type have arrived in Omaha and will be shipped equipped to Los Angeles to be operated out of this district. Granville Adamson of Car 377 has been off for a trip. Friday was pay day, early dawn found some already at the post having formed a heavy lime some few hours in dance of the porter unlocking the doors, others began to appear on the scene in taxis, buggies, trucks, wheel barrows and on foot. Some were accompanied and others were unaccompanied; after all it was just another pay day. E. Hargrove of Diner 308 has severed his connection with the system to accept a position as instructor of mathematics in the High School of Fort Worth, Texas. The Gossip and his friends wish for him much success in his new undertaking. Odell Duncan was slightly injured while alighting from the "P" car in front of commissary. Mrs. Hazel Rakestraw, daughter Elsie and son Joe, returned Sunday on the "Daylight Limited" from San Francisco having been the house guest of Mrs. S. M. Hughes and Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Rippteau.

Jefferson street. Sleeping Car Porters To Receive Assistance COMMITTEE OF PROMINENT CITIZENS TO ASSIST BROTHERHOOD OF SLEEPING CAR PORTERS A committee of one hundred of Los Angeles' most prominent men and women are to assist the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters in their movement to secure a living wage from the Pullman Company, which will permit them to support their families without depending upon tips. Some of the most wealthy and most prominent families in Southern California will be members of this committee, and their influence will be exerted in the Pullman Porters behalf. This movement of the men for a living wage has met with strong support all over the United States. The Pullman Porter, by his unfailing courtesy and willingness to serve, sold himself to the public and everyone who rides the Railroad in Pullman care, has had the opportunity to observe the hard work and long hours which the Pullman Porters are on against Many a passenger will sacrifice something else to tip the Porter, for he knows that the man is not paid a living wage and must depend on tips for food and clothing. The obvious injustice of these arrangements is evident to the public and when certain workers are housed in Pullman's hotel of Illinois Can Pullman is a great deal of public service. But the public does not accept him as well from the financial climate. ROSETTA TEMPLE NO. 10. S. M. T. Meets second and fourth Thursday of each month at 2 P.

MORRISON Ocean Park's Great Kiddies' Floral Pageant Sunday, Sept. 25th SEASON'S MOST BRILLIANT EVENT TO BE MORE ATTRACTIVE THAN EVER Ocean Park's eighth annual Kiddies' Floral Parade will be held on Sunday, September 25th. The one great event that grows more beautiful and popular every year will, this season, eclipse air previous pgeants. More than one thousand children are expected to participate this year and with a prize fund of $1,000, the costumes, floats and presentations will be greater than ever. As usual the pageant and prizes will be divided into classes with special awards in the following classifications: Decorated Floats, Decorated Baby Buggies, Prettiest Costumed Clothes Prettiest Doll Buggy. Best Decorated Kiddies' Auto, Best Decorated Kiddies' Won, Prettiest Twins, Prettiest Trips, Best Decorated Fashion Plates, Best Decorated Bicycle, Best Decorated Kiddies' Car, Prettiest Kiddies' Car and the Finest Civic and Commercial entry. The Kiddies' Floral Parade is one of the most beautiful spectacles presented any palce in the world and in past years it has rivaled the Pasadena Tournament of Roses for number of entries and the beauty and originality of costumes and floats. The many thousands who have witnessed the event in the past are enthusiastic in the commendation. Hundreds of tots, ranging from one year to twelve are entered in the parade. Colorful costumed and mounted on all conceivable kinds of vehicles from baby buggies to trolleys and miniatures they pass down the front Promenade from Fraser avenue to Rose. Passing the reviewing stand in front of the Municipal Auditorium, they are judged and noted for prizes. As usual the parade will be headed by the famous Santa Monica Municipal Pal Band and there will be several other bands, including the Santa Monica Bay Boy Scouts Band, in the line of march. Prominent public officials as well as the best known club women of the Bay district will act as judges. The parade this year, as usual, will be under the complete management and direction of Mrs. Earl Fraser. Starting with an entry list of ninety children eight years ago, Mrs. Fraser has worked tirelessly, to make the Kildies' Parade the gorgeous spectacle it is. Each year has seen the event grow in public esteem, so that now it is booked upon as the one great event of the season. Mrs. Fraser has established headquarters in the Ocean Park Plunge, where she is receiving entries and attending to the thousand and one details of the parade. This year she will be assisted by Miss Helen Lamb. Already over 100 entries have been received. Invitations have been mailed to hundreds of children in every part of the state and the number entering is expected to be greater than ever. Ocean Park is proud of its annual Kiddies' Floral Parade. The Ocean Park Business Men's Association which is co-operating in the promotion or the parade, take a great deal of pleasure in offering this beautiful festival to Southern California. It extends a most cordial invitation to every one to witness its great pageant. The parade starts at 1:30 p.m. m. Sunday, September 25th, and if you wish a day of wonderful enjoyment either motor or take a Pacific Electric train to Ocean Park, where the Kiddies Parade offers you a colorful and brilliant pageant.

Come. Bishops See And Praise Gulfside (By: A. N. P.) Waveland, Miss., Sept. 15.—Bishops ministers and laymen inspected Gulf side Wednesday and congratulated Bishop R. E. Jones upon establishing what was declared to be the nucleus of the greatest religious and educational center in the South and the leading resort of Negroes in the country. Bishop W. P. Tirkeld, Bishop M. W. Clair, of the M. E. Church and Bishop I. B. Scott and Bishop W. J. Walls were among those who gathered at the dedication exercises and joked in with college presidents and kustess and professional men in singing the praises of Bishop Jones and the success of his project. Bishop W. J. Walls run from various points including New Orleans, Mobile, and Montgomery, and hundreds of people, were here to take part in the exercises and to take a 'dip in the Gulf'. The beauty of the place, the modern facilities and the up-to-dateness of the institution came in for much praise. WILLIAMS LEADS BAPTISTS AGAIN (Continued iron: page 1) learned, means seeing to it that he disposes of the little favors he has to offer in an equitable manner. Each state delegation, as a rule, comes to the convention hoping to get something, and it barters its support for this objective. Williams' annual message proved to be a highly statesmanlike paper. It considered practically every phase of Baptist endeavor and was filled with sound recommendations which the convention adopted. Some of his recommendations concerned the convention and Baptists particularly and others were of interests to the entire race. Among those of interest to Baptists was one emphasizing the necessity of having the auditor of the convention audit the books of the various boards and departments. It was plainly stated that this central auditing authority was necessary to impress the boards that they were subordinate parts of the convention and made an exhaustive report concerning his work. In the last three years he has saved thousands of dollars for the convention through the installation of proper bookkeeping systems and the elimination of waste. It was revealed that Negro Baptists have been accorded equal recognition with white Baptists when Dr. Williams called upon the convention to fulfill its pledge, amounting to about two thousand dollars, to the Baptist World Alliance which meets in Toronto, Canada, in June of next year. This is exerted by the Negro Baptists of all colors and races in history, and the Negro Baptist Convention of America will be the largest single group represented. Prior to the president's address, Dr. Roscoe C. Giles of Chicago presented a request from the National Medical Association to the effect that the Baptist Convention appoint a committee to meet with a committee from the medical association to plan ways and means of building a large hospital for Negroes in the South, and one in the North. Dr. Giles impressively stressed the Negro's health needs and the urgency or providing training schools for young physicians. All his recommendations were concurred in by the convention and the question of health was further discussed in the president's message in an appeal that Baptists unite for the building of a tubercular sample. Baptists seem to be recognizing the need for a trained ministry. No other part of Dr. Williams' address received the applause accorded his plea for education and the means of education. He denied that the minister of today can get along without training, and emphasised the urgency of providing support for the denominational schools. An interesting and involved situation, has devolved in respect to the Training School for Women and Girls in Washington, D. C., or which Miss Nannie H. Burroughs is president. The leaders of the convention claim that the school was founded under the auspices of the women's auxiliary to the convention, and that, after Miss Burroughs was made president, the convention rended support to the school. Since that time the institution has been incorporated under an independent board of trustees who refuse to accord the convention any voice in the management of the school. Miss Burroughs, who is secretary of the women's auxiliary, refuses to recognize the interest of the convention, and is felt to have been the chief influence in promoting the present estrangement. The officers of the convention, men and women, feel that they could go to the civil courts and prove they have an abiding, legal interest in the affairs of the school, but it is privately reported that they need to make such a move for that they might be misunderstood and they might be accused of persecuting a woman. They are hopeful that Miss Burroughs will change her mind, but meanwhile she just laughes them off. One of the most important phases of convention work is the activity of the laymen. The male lusty of the church is being organised by John L. Webb, supreme custodian of the Woodmen of Union, with headquarters at Hot Springs, Ark. Mr. Webb has associated with him many of the Negro's leading business men, who attend the convention and offer their services in promoting the objects of the lawmen. Anthony Overton, president of the Victory Life Insurance Company, and the Douglass National Bank, Chicago, made a very effective speech at Thursday evening's meeting. The laymen are trying to increase preacher's salaries, aid the education of young ministers and put business systems into church management. Detroit has been hospitable indeed to its religious guests. Wednesday morning the delegates were welcomed by Mayor John W. Smith, and leading white and colored citizens of the city. Bishop W. T. Vernon spoke in behalf of the Methodists. The convention sessions are being held in the Light Guard Armony, which seats scarcely half the delegates, but is claimed to be the city's largest auditoriums. The women's auxiliary holds its meetings in the Second Baptist Church of which that great Baptist leader, R. L. Bradby, is pastor. Convention sidelights include a boat ride and a trip to Niagara Falls. The local committee has published a daily paper of the convention happenings, cooperating with the Detroit Independent, local weekly. This is the first time such a step has ever been taken. Recognition of the Negro press of the country was made Wednesday afternoon when a motion was passed directing that a copy of the president's address be sent to every colored newspaper in the country.

Prior to the time that fire 'destroyed the old frame building which housed their business in the eleven hundred block on East 12th Street, the McCloneys had only considered themselves fairly successful. They, in order to successfully compete with other care owners in the immediate vicinity, and who were much better situated by having more up-to-date shops and equipments, had to resort to a more systematized effort to serve a better cooked meal, and to offer higher quality service, at reasonable prices. All these things they managed to do. Thanks to the efforts of Mrs. Elmora McCloney, whose genius in managing and supervising the kitchen output was a piece of art in restaurant economy, and service. She made a multitude of friends. Many hoped she would get a more attractive place. The new building which has replaced the old ramble shack, is indeed a credit to the colored business district. The store that houses the restaurant at 1173 E. 12th St., is second to none on East 12th Street. There is plenty of room for the lunch counter, tables and booths. The walls are immaculates; the ceiling high, which gives assurance that the atmosphere will not be dense with kitchen odor. The kitchen like the dining room is large and spacious. The plumbing is a dining room and kitchen is the latest word i modern use. It is open night and day. The employment list is large. A total of nine girls being employed to give service i n the dining room. Among the large number of handsome bouquets of beautiful flowers that fairly swamped the place, was one from Mr. William Robinson, proprietor of the Entertainment Cafe. Their respective restaurants are directly opposite the other. Mr. Robinson said in paying their respects: "To a most worthy competitor, my regardd." Can you beat it, rather unique, what? Nevertheless a most commandable feature to colored business people. Res.: 1411 E. Washington St.; Phone, ATlantic 4528 Elijah Cooper Realty Co.

This is only of passing interest to our particular group of citizens for this particular office is far from cosmopolitan and remains such until just before election time.

Nowadays, the wolf who dressed up in sheep's clothing would have called it caracul and been in style. A writer suggests 13 ways for a wife to lose her husband, but she might succeed, we suspect, without having to avail herself of all of them. The former kaiser says he has always had a liking for England. Also for France, doubtless. He tried so hard to go to Paris a few years ago.

YOUTHFUL CRIMINAL ON WAY TO PRISON Last Sunday when the oblives were pealing forth for the hour of Sabbath School, young Hugh Adams, instead of wending his way in that direction, made his initial move along the long lane of crime that leads behind prison walls. In company with his sweetheart, Pamille Lee less, who refused to give him a record according to her habit and threatened to no, he has played and beat her. After she managed to break away from him and was running downstairs, he shot her in the back inflicting a very serious, if not mortal wound, so says the attending physicians at the General Hospital. In spite of all this, Mrs. Less is reported to have said that she doesn't know whether she wants to prosecute him or not. Mrs. Ether B. Sims attended the National Grand Temple of U. B. F. and S. M.

Y., Sept. 15—John Matthews, widely known in Harlem real estate circles, failed in business last week and fed the city to escape the debts and alleged embezzlements proclaimed. It was said at his former office, 646 Lenox Avenue, that his whereabouts are unknown. Information from his friends denied the failure, but from other sources, it is said that his total losses are more than $50,000 for the past two years. Mr. Matthews was known to have invested $30,000 in cash in the business, and asked that this is reported gone. Restitution from quarters of the most serious obligations has been made partially, it is said, in the last few days.

McLemore who was one of the cogs of the works which landed the Hon. S. M. Shortridge in the Senate for his second term. We look upon Mr. McLemore as a live wire and very energetic worker for all things. We looked upon the Hon. Alexander McCabe who treated us courteously and discussed with him things in general, he informed us that while he was stricly a private citizen that anything he could do he was at our service. At this moment he was in office with the Governor of the office to make appointment to the offices the Oakland N. A. A. C. P. for a conference with Governor Young. Following this we visited the office of Sheriff Thomas H. Finn, one of the squareset and fearest officials which we have ever met, a man who believes in men and who will go out of his way to do a favor. We have Sheriff Born forget times toward our group and the many favors which he has rendered to them during his official career. At the close of just another day we journeyed back to Oakland and accepted the standing invitation of our good friend Dr. O. W. DeVaughn his guest and at his home did we park during our stay at Oakland City, a modern and beautiful home near Berkeley and under the guidance of his devoted helpmate, it is a home to be envel, we are under many obligations to Dr. and Mrs. DeVaughn who spared no effort to make our sojourn a pleasant one. We also not many of Oakland's leading and progressive citizen among whom were Dr. Purnell, Walter Butler, Major W. H. Loving, E. B. Gray, Wm. Bridges, J. H. C. W. Wallace, Father Wallace, Attorney Drake, Chas. Jamison, Dewitt Moss, Madame Jones, the prima donna and others too numerous to mention. We visited the plant of the Western American which is owned by Mr. Devitt Woss, formerly a linotype operator for the "Soaring Eagle" and noted tablelaked and is publishing a newspaper which is indeed a high credit to the fourth estate. It being press day it made us think of home and press day around the Eagle shop. Mr. Moss and his very estimable wife and hap is indeed a distinct asset to the city of Oakland. On Sunday we worshipped at the historic 15th St. A. M. E. Church in company with Dr. and Mrs. DeVaughn. We enjoyed very much the masterly who is serving his fifth consecutive year at this point. On Monday which was Labor Day, we visited the very splendid Elk Rest and joined in the feast which the anteried herd and provided for the population to the Teenage Tournament and watched the championship contests. Of course we pulled for Southern California to win the events in which she was entered and our players did not tail for Miss Miss and Miss Stocks were outstanding and could not be included in or the events in which they entered. N. A. A. G. P. PULLE BIG DRIVE On Tuesday evening we attended the closing of the big membership drive of the National Association of Teachers of the Civic Auditorium. It was featured by a song recital by a real artist, Mme. Hughes, who endured herself in song to the vast concourses of people who turned out for the occasion. She was superb in song and was encored time to the meeting was a brilliant success. On Wednesday on invitation from the members of the Oakland Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. we formed a part of the committee which waited on Gov. Joseph O'Connor of ommunication in June, sonata by Mr. Glass to the Oklahoma authorities on the ground that if granted he would not receive a trial but would be mobbed and lynched. The governor received the committee very cordially and told us that if such conditions were true it was intolerable and set forth a policy assuring us of every consideration. We journeyed back to Oakland spent Thursday on routine business. On Thursday evening we again bad the pleasure of hearing one of Oakland's B Jones in recital at the M. E. Church in Berkeley and allow us to say that she indeed is a wonder. She presented a most elaborate program and proved herself as second to none as a singer had everything on this occasion that a singer is supposed to have—voice stage appearance and costume—which would do credit to any time or place. We suggested to her manager with whom she met, that she should not fall in presenting her to a Los Angeles audience. Our next visit was to the State Fair which was in full sway. We found highly creditable exhibits from all sections of the state—agriculture, horticulture, mining, live stock and manufactures—they were illuminating and inspiring. It was a real old time and worth while State Fair. We met many of the leading citizens, Taylor Walker, Robert Pankey, the old war horse, Hon. Jake Soreas, J. W. Mills, premier real estate dealer, his partner S. N. Crawford, Dr. W. E. Richardson, for merely of this city, our former correspondent Mrs. J. W. Scott and many others.

WHEATON All who toil for their daily wage should read and take inspiration from the address delivered on Labor Day by U. S. Senator Hiram Johnson at San Diego, who was flogical, pregnant with truth, and wise in his labor which is practicable. Time has not lessened the interest of the Senator for the Toller, nor has he lost any of the high ideals which enabled him to pass to cope with "predatory interest in the nature" of the maturity of Labor, and cites it as the "backbone of the nation." Honest toil should be rewarded by an honest wage. The solidarity of labor has raised the standard of living and raised it from the uninherent to an honorable and dignified position. How many Californians know their State? The State Fair or Exposition of the State's resources was a revelation to inter-state visitors. They merrimented products; minerals, precious metals and gems. The diversity of fruits, of grain and food staples, scarcely anything for human consumption, grown on the face of the earth, that was not exhibited. Fine stock of pedigree, of the finest wines, to the total wealth of gold, silver copper, and the minerals used in the industries. But great was that exhibition which showed the wonderful facilities of California's educational system: vocational work of students, kindergarten, the most finished artisan, yielded with the literature and works of art. In the educational exhibit one could follow the creative war kof students from the kindergarten on through the elementary schools, high and university Marvelous!" was the exclamation heard by all. Know your California. What comprises leadership? We often think that one of the drag-cahams of racial progress, is that mooted question of leadership. "He wants to be a leader," is always asserted when any one has the temerity to step out of the ranks of the blacksmith and forthwith every blacksmith shop and hardware establishment is raided for hammers. There was a very recent exposition of this temperament; the liberty, possibly the life of an individual was at stake. There was a representative, a representative citizen who planned undoer the State's chief executive. The name or a man who is not "representative," but has the knack of getting in touch with executives, was suggested. It was like flaunting a red flag in the face of a "cow," but if the man is in the office, he doesn't be-through the influence of the non-representative citizen, and, he doesn't essays to leadership. We hope that the Negro in the United States will always have something to strive for; to fight for. Extreme happiness is ruinous to accomplishment. Stagnation, which is but one degree removed from decay, is the inable force to overcome obstacles-requires energy. It is the concern of the abrogation of our rights as citizens which has helped the forward trend. Attempt to bar the race from industry has awakened the spirit which is fighting to gain a better economic environment. We overcome the barrier of education, racial ostracism, mob violence and racial hatred we hope for other mountains to climb, other obstacles to surmount, so that the spirit to do will never die. It is only by strife that an objective can be gained, a thing accomplished. A common danger is the threat of a thirst for co-ordination of effort. Remember, that a satisfied cat slumbers while the rats destroy. Eternal alertness is essential to our racial life. There are two things that should be encouraged by the Race—AVIATION, which is a factor in world progress, which is NICIFIC FARMING, which is the foundation of national wealth Pioneers in the field of science few. While our youth have shown no lack or courage in the facing of ordeals. Such as is exhibited in battle, looking with serenity in the face of death, they seem to show timidity in exploring etheral heights; But we no longer need to yet develop "plots of the air" daunting. A man of the Race ploneered the way. As is the way of all who pioneer, she paid the cost. Death: But that should be no deterent; it's the price. Then, back to the land: the farm; the men and the women who supply the world's resources; then come he go there with an intelligent worker. How to wrest from "mother earth" her secret of production. It is the farm which will help solve some of the perplexing race questions. It is the cradle of human democracy. Son Of Prominent Man Held; Murder Charge (By; A. N. P.) Louisburg, N. C., Sept. 15.—Henry Clark, son of one of the most prominent farmers of this section, was arrested for charge or murdering Eugene Porte near here Monday afternoon. Young Clark was in the city Monday afternoon and questioned in that he had stabbed Foster in an altercation, the cause of which he would not state. The knife blade penetrated the lung and death followed.

Chicago, Illinois, September 6th, 1927 The California Fergus. News item: By H. B. Brady, Gen. Mgr. Marlowe Detective Agency, Los Angeles, Calif. Study here shows that Chicago ball bond system<sub>m</sub> is all wrong. Failure of the courts to exercise discretion on bail systems may maladministration of criminal justice in a breakdown of bail system in Chicago, according to survey of Prof. Arthur L. Beeley, issued by the University of Chicago press yesterday. The study was made in co-operation with the Chicago Community Trust, as a co-ordinator Beeley's survey of Cook County Jail. Large number of accused, but obviously dependable persons, are needlessly permitted to jail, while many others, just as obviously undependable, are granted a conditional release, never returned to stand trial. MOSTLY NATIVE BOYS We know that unentested jail population is made up largely of native born unmarried men about two-thirds of these are under 31, and a third to a half under 21. The assumption that the unentested prisoners are habitual offenders are transients were shown to be a fallacy. Study of 170 sentenced bail prisoners indicated that sixty-five were imprisoned while awaiting a verdict when modified bail requirements would have secured their presence at trial. Failure of the police to apprehend the more obviously guilty individuals unnecessary arrests, political pressure in getting insecure bail approved for favored individuals, multiplicity of local courts and general overlap in bail blamed by the Professor in his study.

Daniels been instrumental in adding to the Los Angeles camps insurance approximately $100,000 and fifty thousand dollars. Camps have also been organized by the supervisor in other California cities. The rise of the American Woodmen as a national Order has been rapid due to the very careful management on the part of its able Supreme Camp officers headed by Supreme Commander Abner and Supreme Clerk L. H. Ligier, who had about three thousand members with assets of less than fifteen hundred dollars. Within the short space of seventeen years the Order has a membership of seventy-five thousand with assets on January 1st, 1927 of over one million, six hundred thousand with assets over a million and a half dollars, has been paid in benefits while six hundred have been loaned to members of the order to lift mortgages on their homes and in making other improvements. The Order employs more than a thousand members or the race and should merit the co-operation of race loving Negroes everywhere for what it is doing to raise the economic status of the race. The dispensation allowing four dollars in fee to the Los Angeles camps makes him have been waiting for this opportunity to become affiliated with the "Giant of Negro Fraternals." PROMINENT PASTOR HONORED On Wednesday evening, September 7, 1927, the home of Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Graham, 1431½ W. 35th St., was the scene of a beautiful lawn fete given by the Ladies Club of Providence Baptist Church. The lawn has converted into a veritable flower garden and was lighted with beautiful Japanese lanterns. A large crowd was present and spent the evening very pleasantly. At the close of the fete, their efficient pastor, Rev. J. A. H. Eldridge, was presented with a handsome purse. Which was graciously received and acknowledged with appropriate words. Pickens Composes New "Talladega Song" (By The Associated Negro Press) New York, Sept. 15.—In compliance with a request from the officials of Talladega College, William Pickens, field Secretary of the N.

Sevyn Pickens wrote the words of "Grimm and Blue" when was adopted as the official college song. Recently there has grown a desire for another, and it was but natural that Talladega should turn to its most distinguished and illustrious alumnus for the words. The music will be arranged later.

Our own Juliaette, consistent and flashy player, was the fortunate winner of the beautiful silver cup donated by the Oakland Chamber of Commerce for the Lahies Singles. Miss Harris has bid the title of Women's Single Champion for six years and is the possessor of two other championship trophies. Residents of Pasadena also have cause to be proud since their favorite Geneva Stocks was also the recipient of a beautiful cup, by winning the Ladies Doubles in which she was crowned. Other players deserving honorable mention were the Mrs. Josephine Brown and Miss Victoria Shorey. M. H. World's most famous trainer, decorated by the king of England for his work of training sailors during the World War. Ross of Heroe Turchi and the rest of the Shamrock stable of Forbes and Walsh. Jack Dempsey Fires Neil Clisby And thereby hangs a tale. Here it is. While the great ex-champion was out here this Spring he heard a lot about Nell Clisby's speed and cleverness and the streak he was cutting through the boys on the Coast. So he personally sought an interview with Tom Jones, his champion-maker manager and offered Nell a job as chief sparring partner to prepare him for his battle with Tunney. He expressed the fact that he needed men like that who could not only box but hit. But he made this provision that Nell must remember that he is working out and not fighting. If his work was O. K. he would get something like $4000 and a spot on the big card. Yet when time came to leave he left without Clisby, and did not send back for him. A few days before leaving although Jones had promised Dempsey that Nell would obey orders and not try to kayeve Dempsey in the workouts, not seeming satisfied he also asked Bob Cronin about Clisby. "Bay, that boy is a 'fighter'; fast as lighting and hits like a George mule's kick," answered Bob. Did Cronin's answer spill the beans? At any rate Clisby was technically "bred" forthwith and did not get his great change. Nevertheless he will be leaving soon to invade the East with Tom Jones and co-manager, Mr. Dempsey.

Wolkast, he said— "I may be partial to my own state, but the accomplishment of fights past and present, fall to convince me that they have ever in any state turned out three champions, as this famous trio.

This is Joe Diaz, featherweight champion of Cuba and all over the republic of Old Mexico. Diaz knocked out Astudillo in a pair of sessions, thereby anexing his title of champion of South America. At Morrie Copan's Pasadena arena where the bout was hold a surprise and wonder was thrown into the fans he the lightning like speed or the boy from the tight little ile. Morrie had been trying to get the boy here for two years but a delay in receiving passports is all that has kept him out of the U. S. fight horizon. But while waiting he has been very busy. Many of his fights have been in the historic bull-ring at Nogales, Sonora which is owned by his manager Dan Cole, promoter of the Jack Johnson-Pat Lester fight. Fernando Contreras, Carlos Garcia, Young Nino and many others whom he beat through Mexico from Nogales down to Tampico. Two fights with Nino champion lightweight of Arizona relieved Nino of his honor.

Jimny Murray's Culver City Stadium Gaining In Fame BIG CARD THURSDAY A sell out last week for the Godfrey-Van Patten fight, and a great gathering of celebrities and well pleased fans put another feather in the bonnets of Murray Lykke and Co. of the Culver City fight factory. Every card is a winner and this week's is no less. How's this for a top spot?

Wildcat has gone across the desert seeking his prey. He meets Rivera in Phoenix, Arizona, Friday night, September 16th. Ace is just like his namesake always restless, never content to stay idle but his greatest restlessness at present is due to the fact that he is just "rarin to go" in a match with Joe Dundee for the weight championship. This will take place late in October as all that is necessary is to get Dundee and his manager's name on the dotted line. 1. 下列说法正确的是 Page-Eight THE BLACK SPORT WORLD THROUGH THE EYES OF ART HAMILTON George Godfrey, that much feared heavyweight, jumped back to the East after knocking over Hury Van Patten at Culver City. Godfrey has a match with Monte Munn. It seems as if the only fighters willing to fight the Black Shadow are fighter looking for easy money and a chance to win on a lucky punch. Neil Clisby, that fast, hard-hitting heavy from Riverside added another victim to his long string of victories last Thursday when he K. O'ed. John O'Brien in two rounds. Clisby is going like a house-a-fire and should be giving the top notchers plenty of worry. Jimmie Black, his little stable mate has been laid up with an injured hand but is training again and will be knocking his fellow featherweights into green-eyed monsters with his whirlwind style. --- Vernon Jackson, the fighting bantam boy travelled down to Lom Poc last Monday and beat Benny Fureel, that tough Filippo. Jackson beat Feero badly, taking eight out of ten rounds. I dropped by the Main Street gym the other day to watch the boys go through their paces and Jose Diez, that Cuban sensation was working out. Diez seems to be everything that is said of him. --- The latest press report on the big fight is that Tunney is offered a million to throw the fight. Mr. Tunney won't hive to throw the fight. Dempsey is going to beat him and beat him badly. I think Dempsey is going to do what many think the impossible—punch Mr. Tunney into oblivion in eight rounds. More power to you. Jack. --- Babe Ruth seems to be headed for a new home run record at the pace he is setting now. He has 52 to his credit and has three weeks in which to better his former record of 59. At the completion of the season Ruth will have made around $75,000. King football is now upon us and will soon be taking the spotlight away from the squared circle in the daily press. Beyond a doubt, Brice Taylor miss that development by Brice Taylor for what chosen by some experts as All Conference Guard for '25 and '26.

What do you do, labor? A. Labor. Q. Have you ever been in any trouble or any kind? A. Not in my life. Q. Do you remember the night—You had a boy by the name of Sam Faulkner, did you? Q. And you, attended his, funeral? A. Yes sir. Q. You were a witness at the Coroner's inquest A. Yes sir. Q. Now, can you tell this Grand Jury just what took place that night? A. Yes sir. I can tell them. A. About 9 o'clock I and my boy were sitting in my house at the back, at the rear, about 9 o'clock, and I was reading a doctor book, telling him how to eat and be healthy, and so he sat there a little while and he said, "Mamma, I believe I will go to bed—no," he said, "I will go to church." He said, "Have you went to church today, Mamma?" She said, "Yes, and several of them joined." He said, "When I go again I am going to join myself." So he said to her, "I believe I will go to bed. That is the best place for me. I have got to do a hard day's work tomorrow and I will go to bed," so he gets up and washes his little baby's face and puts his night clothes on and put him into bed and kisses him good night, and then went on in with his wife in the front room, and he was going to bed about. I suppose, four or five minutes, maybe ten minutes; I don't know just exactly, and after he was gone off I sat for a little while and I pulled off one of my shoes and I was fixing to go to bed. I had off one shoe and my wife was talking about going to bed, too. So he called me. He said, "Daddy, Daddy, there is something going on wrong in sister's house. Somebody is killing sister or murdering her or something," and I jumped up with my shoe off and went to the door and I did hear a rumbling. He is about deaf in one ear and he has been deaf in one ear long before he was married. It must have been an awful rustling for him to hear it, because he can't hear in one ear. He had the meningitis. So I jumped up and ran to the porch and I heard the rumbling and I grabbed my shoe and put it on, and he came with me. We goes to the east window. Q.

Where was the boy? A. The boy was with me. Q. Then what did you do? A. They have got a big window on the west side and the screen was off of that window and a light was in the bed room. I and the boy crawled over to the bedroom. Q. That is, you crawled through the window? A. Yes. He was with me and I was him and he got the door into the dining room was just about half shut and he peeped around that door and said "Hey." and when he said that before he could say it, there was a bullet struck him and he fell down by me and I slammed the door and jumped out of the window and ran to the driveway and told my wife, "They murdered my child." Q. Where was your wife? A. My wife was down the driveway, back toward my house. A. Q. How near was she to the house? A. Sir? Q. How far was she from your house? A. I don't know, but when the shooting started she was close enough to hear me tell her that they had killed my child. Q. When you told her that your boy was killed, what did you do? A. I ran to the front door and stuck my head in the door. Q. Do you mean the front door of the living room? A. Yes, the front door, and the bullet came after me. Where the bullet went I can't say. I saw a man dressed in light clothes, a great big stomached man. He was the man that threw the bullet at me. Q. Where was he standing? A. Right at the kitchen door. Q. Was he in the kitchen or in the dining room? A.He wasn't in the dining room. The door swings open and he was standing right in the edge of the kitchen. Q. In the doorway? A. Not in the doorway, but back from the door in the kitchen. Q. Did he fire at you? A. Fired at me. My head was right over the piano. He cut down on me that way, and I broke and ran. Q.

No sir, I didn't have a sign of a weapon, didn't have nothing, no kind of a weapon. I wasn't going for no trouble. Mr. Denalson: Does your daughter sell liquor at that house? A. She never did. That is something I didn't allow them to do, to violate the law, and I know she never sold any liquor in that house. I try to live a citizen everywhere I go, and I try to raise them to do the same thing. That boy of mine, he didn't do anything to anybody. Q. Have you seen the officer that fired at you? A. I haven't seen him since that night. I haven't seen either one nor more than— Q. Did you see the officer at the Coroner's Inquistion that fired the shot? A.

It was opened after the shooting took place. There was several shots made and I didn't pay any attention to them because I thought it was my time next. Q. By Mr. Dennison: After you jumped out of the window, did you hear any shooting? A. Why, certainly, they are shooting after I jumped out of the window. Q. I have a plan here. This is the front porch; this is the west bedroom; this is the door that opens—this door opens in the bed room, does it? Yes sit? Q. Was there a bed along in front of that window? A.

You had to crawl over the bed? A. Yes. Q. When you crawled over the bed where did your boy go. - A. Just peeped around here and I was standing right beside of him and the bullet struck him right there and he fell and I jumped. That is just the way it happened. He didn't have a sign of a gun, nor I either, and wasn't expecting any trouble and didn't know there was any officers about the place, and if we had known there was any officers around there we would not have been any trouble to them. I wanted to get the officers, that is what I wanted, to find out what was going on at my place. Q. All that you testified to took place in the County of Los Angeles. A. Yes. Q. You don't know who was in the house when you got there? A. No. I rang the officers. Q. No. I mean the officers that shot your room. A. No. A.

(Continued in Next Issue) brought back to us again I n the Jade Library, a series bearing Knof's imprint, imprint, beautiful from the standpoint of the printer's art, and in such distinguishing company as Theophile Gaulet's "Romance in Spain" and the "Letters of Abelard and Meloise." That the "Autobiography of An Ex-Colored Man" is puta action, is quite evident to us now as we read the name on the title pages and the two prefaces. Mr. Johnson has played with the ideas of a colored man at times "passing", again a Negro in a Negro world. He resides the child living in a small town of the North, the south, expecting to enter Atlanta University, but, robbed of all his money, turning to self-support at Jacksonville as a clear maker, and finally the New York and on the Continent. But while the story is a story, and not a life history, the ideas in it, the discussion of the race problems, the evaluation of white and black, the dissertation on raq-time, and colored music in general, are the author's own, and it is this phase of the book, I suspect, that has lead to its reprinting. I however, should be the last person to say this for I was so engrossed in the story, when I first got hold of the volume, as to lose an important business meeting and ten cents in car fares! I began it on a subway train on my way to Brooklyn. I had to change at Bowling Green from a South Ferry to a Brooklyn train. My car was slow in coming and as I waited I went on with the "Autobiography". A train drew up, I forgot to look at the sign, boarded it, continued reading, and found myself at South Ferry! I laughed at the mistake, walked back, paid a second nickel and again waited for the train. The book was in my hand. I could not refrain from peeping in it once more, and at once my absorption was deep. I boarded it, again, absentmindedly, and again was dropped at South Ferry. When I returned to wait on the platform the third time, the "Autobiography was closed and I was wondering whether the guards who looked at me curiously would think me a detective or only a lunatic. There is something very, engrossing about the easy flowing narrative, written I the first person. One must read on to see what the hero will do when one turns the page. It is really far more entertaining than a highly wrought mystery tale. When the book first appeared I remember there was a criticism of the portrayal of the Negro as at times leading a naughty life: The hero of the "Autobiography" was for some years a gambler and a frequenter of dance halls. He should instead have been always virtuous a pattern for the white reader. We hear the same criticism to-day, but with less certainty. The realization should be that a work of art and not a Sunday School treatise is growing with colored readers. Propoganda, if it is to appear at all, must be subtle. But while the "Auto biography" depicts the underworld it does it with the regalism of the days before the war, not with the gusto or these bootlegging times. To be placed in the Jade Library means to be in a series that is likely to continue for may years, a series whose books will remain for a long time in print. We can all be proud that a novel by an American Negro should be chosen for such a rare distinction.
