Bishop Vernon Sung Out! Florence Mills Dead! VOLUME 41 Bish F TANNER RESIGNS DETROIT CHARGE (Special wire from Detroit, Nov. 1, 1927). As a result of the tremendous protest of the members of the life big A. M. E. Church against the appointment of Dr. C. H. Tanner, the resignation of the distinguished prelate was offered and accepted amid the greatest excitement ever staged in a church controversy. At Sunday morning service the Bishop, Rt. Rev. W. T. Vernon was accompanied to the pulpit by the police, notwithstanding the fact that no disturbance of any kind has been manifest since the fight began. Therefore he was sung out and was unable to speak a word. As the church receded the Bishop has put the matter in court. The case is still ponding, the members are determined to get a square deal or else. YOUNG PEOPLES DAY AT LIN COLN MEMORIAL Young People's Day at Lineola Memorial Congregational Church last Sunday, October 30, went over big with a large and appreciative audience at both services. Mrs. A. Hill, president of the Phys-Art-Lit-Mor Club, is supervisor of the young people. Miss Cornelia Edwards acted as Mistress of Ceremonies. A splendid address was given in the morning service by Frank Bowdan and it was enjoyed by all. At the evening service, a musical program was rendered. Some of the feature numbers were Miss Naidia McCullough and Miss Winona Winder, instrumental solos; Misses Mas Turner and Antoinette Gamble, vocal solos. Miss Vesta Edwards, president of the Young People's League, gave the welcoming address. The excellent speaker for the evening was Miss Helen Wheeler, recent graduate from U. S. C. The entire services throughout the day were good and the "Day" really went over the top. Mrs. A. Hill is given much credit for the success of the affair. Rev. I. Albert Moore, Pastor 1st A.M.E. Zion Church All Los Angeles indeed were pleased when it was announced that Rev. L. Albert Moore had been returned to Zion church for another year, for during the period of his pastorage here, he has indevoured himself to all who have come in contact with him. His high Christian character and keen interest in every movement which stands for the advancement of all peoples has indeed caused him to become a distinct and outstanding asset to this community. Under his leadership Zion church has took its rightful place and is growing in popularity every day. The "Soaring Eagle" with a discerning eye places him high up amongst the churchmen of our group. We have ever found him sympathetic and ready to assist in all causes which stand for a real and lasting program and we besitate not in giving due credit to a man who has come into our midst as Rev. Moore and who has brought things to pass and we predict for him a greater success for the coming year of his pastorate. All streets lead to Miss Eden, Tuesday, November 5th to the Big Education Community Meeting. Mrs. Susan M. Dorsey, president of Los Angeles City Schools, principal speaker. Madam Murdock, Miss Anna Mae Griffith, Miss Nadia McCullough, Miss Thelma D. Brown and others will appear on the evening's program. Mrs. Senola Maxwell Reeves, supervisor of Los Angeles City Schools will be the mistress of ceremonies and introduce speaker. There is no admission. Big Educational Night, at Beth Edge, Tuesday, November 8th. Negro Pastor Gets 1 to 10 Years for Shooting Sentence of one to ten years in San Quentin prison was pronounced today on the Rev. William R. Hardy, Negro who was convicted several days ago of manslaughter in connection with the fatal shooting July 14 of Y. Dianty. Negro bootblack. The sentence was passed by Judge James H. Pope of the Long Beach branch of the Superior Court, Thursday, October 27th, after he denied the motion of Attorney K. I. Perky, former United States Senator from Utah, who defended Hardy, for a motion for a new trial. Perky announced that an appeal to the California Supreme Court would be made immediately on the ground or error in the Court's announcement to the jury. The announcement of appeal will cause a stay in execution of the sentence. Meanwhile Hardy is confined in the County Jail. The courtroom was packed, mostly by Negroes. The fatal shooting of Dianty occurred in California Street. Hardy asserted he shot Dianty in self defense. Evidence was brought to show that at least one of the shots was fired when Dianty was running and Hardy was chasing him—from Press Telegram, Long Beach. Negro Woman Hits White Woman in Alabama and Lives (Bv: A. N. P.) Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 1.—Miss Ethel C. Adams was given a fine of $50 and costs and a sentence of thirty days in jail for slapping Irene Whcaton, a white woman, who is alleged to have attempted to push the colored woman off the sidewalk. The two women met on the street, and it is reported in attempting to pass each other, the white woman grabbed Miss Adams and tried to throw her off of the sidewalk. Miss Adams pulled away from the white woman and slapped her face. Officers were summoned immediately and Miss Adams was placed under arrest and the white woman was permitted to go free, as usual. Aviation Day at Forum Sunday Notable Affair Those who missed going to the Forum on last Sunday missed a rare treat indeed. For the program presented by the program committee on Aviation was indeed a rare treat. The same was presented by J. B. Bass in the absence of the chairman, Mrs. Lala Slaughter. Mr. Otis Ward who scaled the heights of the Sierra Nevada mountain range as the mechanic for Ace Foreman on his attempted transcontinental flight to New York and who is striving to accomplish things on behalf of aviation for the group was the first speaker and gave a narrative of the trip with Foreman and by his droll humor and interesting descriptions entertained his hearers to the highest degree. In fact Ward stole the show. Captain Tuggles of the Vernon Aero Club was the next speaker and gave in detail the advantages and opportunities for those of our group who would qualify themselves as aviators. Mr. H. Wells was the next speaker and gave his endorsement to the movement to create and qualify our young men to master the air. It was one big day and Aviation received a big boost as the result of Sunday's meeting. The class of fifty is being rapidly recruited and those in suit with Mr. W. McRae or Mr. W. at the T. W. C. A. on E 12th St. LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1927 SANTA MONICA CEMETERY MAKES MOVE TOWARD SEGREGATION The entire Negro population of the Bay District is indignant over what is suspected as being an attempt, to segregate them in the Woodlawn cemetery. It is alleged that certain city and cemetery officials have made the suggestion that Negroes have their bodies removed to a secluded and obscure section of the cemetery. Suspicion was first aroused when Mrs. Athea Braye, widow of the late J. Goodman Braye, actor and playwright was notified that the expensive tombstone in which her dead husbond picture was engraved had been annihilated. Previous to this event, a Mrs. V. Ross (white) had her daughter's body removed on discovering that Mr. Braye was colored. Another white family by the name of Heinkle followed Mrs. Ross's example. Mrs. Braye has been asked by the cemetery superintendent to remove Mr. Braye's body from that section of the cemetery which of course, she refuses to do. A number of prominent white citizens of Santa Monica are behind another move at discrimination in the Boy Scout Troop, which heretofere has been a mixed group. —E.R.H. Former Houston Physician Opens Office in Los Angeles Former Houston Physician Opens Office in Los Angeles Dr. Charles A.

Johnson surprised her husband while visiting another lady in a convivial drinking party. It is further said the last seen of Mrs. Johnson's better half he had all his clothes and was walking and talking to to himself. Philadelphia Winners Entertained by Wannamaker Store (By: A. N. P.) Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 2.—The Robert Curtis Ogden Chorus and Band of the Wannamaker Store held a dinner and reception in honor of the successful Philadelphia Entrants in the National Negro Musicians' Contest for the Rodman Wannamaker Musical Composition, on Friday evening. The dinner was held at six o'clock, the public reception being given at eight o'clock. The successful contestants had been awarded the prizes at the recent convention of the National Negro Musicians in St. Louis, Mo. The affair was well attended and was a marked success throughout. Practically all of musical Philadelphians was in attendance. Aside from the reception and dinner tendered to the successful contestants, the home-coming of the director of the Robert Curtis Ogden Chorus, Mr. Freed Cardin. Mr. Cardin has just returned to this country after an absence of two months spent in studying at Fountain Blau (just outside of Paris) where he had a scholarship. The contestants, Mr. Cardin, Miss Marion Anderson, and Hon. Edward W. Henry were guests of honor, and were each presented to the large audience amid rounds and rounds of applause. Mr. Vernon Coffee directed the band. John W. Lowe is president of the Robert Curtis Ogden Association, and Major J. Harry Scoggins is president of the chorus. High-Wade Nuptials Sol- emnized at Early Mass Thursday morning at seven o'clock Miss Luella High, and Mr. Gossas J. Wade were united in holy wreedlock by Father Edmund Schlecht at a nuptial mass in St. Odella's new chapel. Accompanied to the altar by her brother, Mr. Walter High, the bride was radiantly charming in a gown of white satin and lace, featuring the uneven hem-line, handed with pearls and rhinestones. The artistically arranged wreath and veil did much to enhance her loveliness and the capried a bouquet of bride's rose, jasmine and tulle. Miss Rubeline Glover, mald-of-honor, was engagingly attractive in a dress of rose crepe, piped in black, and picture hat of black velvet. She carried a bouquet of pink sweet peas and tern. Mr. Maude was attended by Mr. Harry Monroe, and both appeared in the conventional frock coat and striped trousers. After mass the bridal party enjoyed a delicious breakfast, given by Mr. T. Hyde Wade at the house of Mr. Rose Jones on 01nd St. Those in the party other than the bride and groom were Mr. and Mr. Harry Monroe Miss Glover, and Mr. and M. T. Hyde The Lincoln Theatre Perhaps one of the most beautiful show houses of its kind in the city, the Lincoln Theatre portrays everything one would term the last word in playhouses. The exquisite architecture and general appearance of the house is given its finishing touch by the two beautiful paintings of Abraham Lincoln and Booker T. Washington that adorn its walls. On entering and having been comfortably seated, one's attention is drawn to the attractive group of mulatto and octoonor usheres们. Mr. Curtis Carpenter has so carefully planned his decorations that tronesses to their seath. With the large number of handsome dark girls to be found in the city one wonders why the ushers are not mixed with a little color. The show itself is termed only fair. Curtis Mosby's band a well balanced and gives the performers excellent support. Although it jazz selections are very good the writer was much disappointed in the eastern beauty chorus. Local talent that has been presented here from time to time could give this group a spirited contest for honors in beauty chorus dancing and singing. Mrs. Elizabeth W. Bruce who plays the massive Wurlitzer organ has an excellent opportunity to prove herself an excellent organist as well as the foremost colored organist of Los Angeles with such a remarkable instrument on which to display her ability. At. present Mrs. Bruce does not appear to be thoroughly acquainted with the instrument before. her. A good many organists whose training has been almost solely on church organs will find a great deal of difference in the theatre organ. The present attendance at the Lincoln Theatre is not up to the standard. It is up to the show and to its management to change this state of affairs if it expects to receive the support of the large Negro population of the Angel City. EDNA ROSALYNE HEARD. Men of Independent Church Win Honors For Efficiency The great and progressive Independent church of which Rev. N. P. Gregg is the pastor has just concluded a unique contest for honors between the female vs the male communicants of the church. The efforts of both were commendatory to the highest degree. The contest was on points and the judgment was of general department and efficiency of the different Sunday services put on wholly first by the women and secondly by the men. After a careful and painstaking survey by five eminent persons chosen as judges for the occasion, the award was given to the men and the points were 87 for the women to 96 for the men. In every instance excepting the financial which was forty points alone the men shaded the women, which for finance, the woman raised eight hundred odd dollars to six hundred for the men in other words the women raised more than two hundred dollars more than men. Bear in mind that each side was alert and made vailant efforts to excel, as a result the women on their day put over what was thought to be an unbeatable program, however on the very next Sunday the men came forth with demonstrated guntus and swept everything before them. For instance they had the foretight to procure the versatile and erudite bishop of the A.M.E. Zion church, J. W. Marty to preach the morning sermon and the man's choir excelled. In the evening the night male chorus featuring poles by M. Glenn and others and duly the court of justice swept the woman away with all the pain and maze which they had escaped. However they were beaten but remained light honeys for their efforts and we reply believers that the most content the vardier will be avenged. The Temple of Justice presented by the sage as well worthy of special honour was well received, when the Prof. Claude V. Pitts To Direct Big Choir Leading Lyric Tenor of the Pacific Coast; Who Will be in ... Charge of the Great Choir ... of the Peoples Independent Church Sunday Morning Prof. Claude V. Pitts was born, in Georgia, of parents who were humble but devout, republican and of unquestioned integrity. They had none of this world's good with which to enrich him, but they gave him that which was, by far, more precious and priceless—a strong physique, a pliable PROF. CLAUD PITTS mind, an undaunted courage, an inconquerable ambition and a strong personality. He is, what the world calls, a self made man. Denied from his very birth, the luxuries, favors and indulencies enjoyed by children of the well to do class, he has been forced to battle his way up from ignorance and out of obscurity. But he has not spent his valuable time bemeaning his fate, but, early in life, set about the task with a grim determination that has brought him through, with flying colors. In 1915, he discovered the possibilities offered by his remarkable voice. He was accepted, as a pupil by Prof. Patric O'Neal, the leading tenor of the O'Brien Opera Co., of Ireland. Mr. O'Brien thought so well of the 'rising young star, that he used his great influence to have him introduced to the fans of radioland. Here, he made good, from the start and for a long time was in great demand on all programs broadcasted by the Evening Herald and also over K.F.J., to the great delight of all who listened in. Mr. Pitts is, now, studying with Prof. Manuel Sanchez DeLara, the director of the DeLara Co., who thinks so well of the ability of his distinguished pupil, that he has offered him room to teach in his studio. He has sung, with telling effect, be (Continued on Page Six) N. A. A. C. P. NOTES The Woman's auxiliary of the Los Angeles Branch is holding a special meeting Sunday November 6th for the purpose of devising plans by which the women can actively cooperate with the branch in carrying forward the work of the organization. In June we will have the annual meeting of the association; this will require a great deal of time and preparation. Los Angeles must so conduct this conference that it will be a credit to the City, to the West and to our group. The fight against residential segregation must be taken up anew. This meeting will be called at 4:30 and will not last longer than one hour. November 6th at 4:30 P.M. A.M.E. Zion Church, Pico and Paloma Streets. The following Sunday Councilman Virgil A.

Robinson for the plaintion, Mr. S. P. Johnson, for industry, Mr. Norman Hickman for industry, Mr. Norman for education and J. H. Shanklifford for federally were all great and presented one of the best dramatic and telling plays which was ever presented, all motion to the highest attestation to the highest approval for the name which then succeeded. THE passing of Florence Mills of National fame comes as a shock to the Nation. Her paradoxical ascendancy to stage fame attracted not only the attention of her own countrymen, but likewise the peoples of Europe. Miss Mills who came to New York a few weeks ago from London, England passed away, Tuesday, November 1, at her home, 233 W. 182nd St. New York City, after undergoing an operation for appendicitis. Some of the plays through which Miss Mills passed to fame were "The Black Bird Revue," "Dixie To Broadway," the original "Shuffle Along." It is interesting to note that Mr. Sam Kramer, originator and builder of the new Lincoln Theater, first starred Miss Mills on her theatrical career at the Grand Theater at Chicago in the Panama Trio with Cora Green and Bricktops. Producers were attracted by Miss Mills' singing and dancing and it was while she was featured in "From Dixie to Broadway" a successful musical comedy that she was given her chance to tour Europe and London heading to well-known "Blackbird Revue." She was abroad for over a year and while there, she won many admirers and friends. Miss Mills was in her early twenties and her work had drawn much attention. In private life she was Mrs. U. S. Thompson, wife of the work-known eccentric dancer, better known as "Slowtime" Thompson. She leaves, besides her husband, a mother and sister, Maud Mills. The race and stage mourn her loss. THERE is room enough for all.

I lookellow Don't try to blow out the candle of someone who struggled when you were trolliking because of petty jealousies—get wise and light your candle from his; cease muttering, and go ahead for there is someone just back of you waiting to fill the place you now occupy. THIS IS MY PRAYER FATHER of Heaven and Earth and all that therein is. When the winds of adversity bear upon me thou gavest me shelter When I had not food thou didst feed me. When friends were few thou raised up many. AND oh! the long hours of groping in despair. The time when nothing joomel on life's horizon, but fear. How well—Oh! yes. How well I remember that benighted Little corner to which I went to seek Thee in solitude. TWAS there I prayed for success. Prayed that I might work and toll and build. And now, O! Father, as I look out upon life's pathway— I see success in the distance But there between me and my goal trials pile up like hills grown into mountains to mountains And I turn aside in fear— So it's back to my little corner— Back to my God of hope.

BEAUTIFYING THE HOME AND YARD (Requested by the California State Federation of Colored Women's Club.) Whatever we do pertaining to our outdoor home surroundings, should be with the idea of making it beautiful and attractive. There is no excuse for a homely, unkept yard in this beautiful scene where things will grow the whole time and care. A homely yard can be converted into a thing of beauty. At any flower store you can obtain a book giving general directions on plants and planting. We would advise you to plant a tree, bush or plant of some kind at some of our club homes. Easter is a good day for giving a potted plant. Have an exhibit of plants or flowers by members of the clubs. Give a small tree or shrub to one of the growing the best plant or flower or the greatest variety. Yongs for continued success. MRS. HOMER DEAN.

Washington, D. C. Nov. 1—Negro Catholics charged Father Cornelius J. Dacey of St. Paul's Church with attempting to prohote Jim Crowism here last week when it was reported that Sunday he made the statements that "those or you who are members of the St. Augustine and Holy Redeemer Parishes should take your support to them. We do not desire you here, and it is best for you to go to your own church." ```markdown ``` So angered were a number of the Nergic communicants that it is reported that they left the Church immediately, in explaining his version of the affair, Father Dacey declared: "I used no term that would apply to a distinct race when I made the statement. It was made immediately following an appeal to the members of my own parish for their whole-hearted support. Members of St. Augustine and Holy Redeemer Parishes are not members of St. Paul's; hence, I have no right to ask their support. SURE NUFF BY: AGNES BERRY MONTIER (For the Associated Negro Press) Full of hope, he came here from the Southland. And hard luck seemed just waiting for him. He'd pluck, he had faith, and endurance; And with these three you can't help but win. He'd tackle any hard job with assurance. Say, "That sure 'nuff was hard," then he'd grin. Mattered not to him, when streets were icy. Made you see not the clothes,—just that grin. He brought cheer that made dark skies to brighten; May success "sure nuf" wait on that grin! High Praise For Colored Movie Actors Atmosphere-plus was furnished by talented Negroes who worked recently in the picture, "The Big City," starring Lon Chaney. Over a hundred of these extras proved to be veritable veterans under the guidance of Tod Browning, who directed this picturesque tale of New York gangster life. These extras worked with such enthusiasm that they won plaudits from both Chaney and Browning. Their vivacity in the cabaret scene was infectious, everyone in the picture acting with high pressure speed owing to the gaiety in this colorful epilode. Browning said that this production, which he is directing for Metro-Goldwyn-Myers would doubtless be one of the most glamorous ever put on the screen, owing to the fine world of the Negro extras and the marked fidelity to life that the picture bore. He remarked that these extras in the big cabinet scene did not really act—they lived their part. He said that ordinarily it was rather difficult to handle such a big crowd—that in such scenes the mass action often became stereotyped, lacking in color and punch. Not so with this cabaret scene. Each Negro player played, Browning said, as if he were an individual unit, with the result, course, was both picture-essential and distractive. "Iindeed," Browning said, "the Negro as a race has the gift of patomine in the highest degree. They feel keenly and respond to direction quickly, being about the most plastic material I have ever worked with." Some of the colorful features of the Lon Chaney production included dances by talented Negro players, suggesting the origin of the Charleston. So animated was the work of performers in this scene, depicting a haunt of the underworld in New York, frequented by Chaney and his followers, that onlookers were fascinated by the efforts of the solo dancers; indeed, several times spectators burst into unthinking applause, forgetting that they were not in an actual cabaret. The set was an elaborate one—many small tables at which were dins out for a merry time, giving a semblance of unstudied gaiety. Candelabra on each table, the dancers, the animated crowd of Negro extas and numerous vaudeville turns made this sequence an out-of-the-ordinary affair. The barbaric note of certain of the Negro dances lent an exotic touch to this scene, making it one of the high water marks of the production. Browning sald. That M-G-M uses large numbers of Negro players in their most important productions is a known fact, for instance, over 100 were employed in "The Big City," while even more worked in the glamorous tale of horse racing, "In Old Kentucky." This tremendous film organization also features Negro players from time to time, a notable example the well-known dancer, Carolynne Snowden, who had an important role in "The Old School." Negroes are popular at the M-G-M studio; they have made good as actors, with an emphatic emphasis on the capital G. for Good. Real worth is always recognized and Negro players consistently get a splendid "break" in M-G-M product splends. White Man Sentenced [By: A. N. P.] Starksville, Miss., Nov. 2.—John Johnson, a white man, indicted for beating Negroes, has been sentenced to the penitentiary for three years. Johnson operated a small grocery and represented that he was connected with a company which granted pensions to "antabellum Negroes" upon payment of $48.10. Improved Farming to be Discussed at Tuskegee Conference Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Oct. 31—How to improve and standardize quality of produce and how to market advantageously are features of a selling and producing program for farmers that will be discussed at the thirty-seventh annual Tuskegee Negro Conference which meets here jointly with the southern box and girls.

This situation is as certain and sure as the fact that president Coolidge is definitely out of consideration. PEACE AND QUIET Peace and quietude reigns supreme all along the line of effort and it is perhaps the calm just before the battle begins to rage again. The portals of the city hall are just now free from combat and except from the wails now and then of the Rev. Bob Shuler all is well. In the county, since the sensational grand jury report of the charities department, everything goes on in the even tenor of its way. Now the state despite the fact that Governor Young has failed to recognize all parts of his constituency in his appointments the machinery of State moves on its way. Truly therefore in political affairs peace and quietude reigns supreme. At this moment we are thinking of a situation some months hence in the selection of a standard bearer from the 74th assembly district. Our present assemblyman the Hon. Frederick Roberts has served faithfully for a period of ten years in that position. Long enough to go up higher, we do not know what his aspirations are as to this phase of the situation, but we do know that as far as the editor of this paper is concerned that we want that rung that he has occupied for ten years and in due time will do our utmost to secure the same. In this situation there has been no conferences, no one has asked us and very freely of our own accord we will freely say we want that rung that Mr. Roberts is roosting on. LAUGH! "Laughter, while it lasts, slackens and unbraces the mind, weakens the faculties, and causes a kind of misgess and dissolution in all the powers of the soul; and thus far it may be looked upon as a weakness in the composition of human nature. But when one considers the frequent reliefs the human body receives from it, and how often it breaks the gloom, which is apt to depress the mind and dampen the spirits, with transient, unexpected gleams of joy, one would take care not to grow too wise for so great a pleasure of life," is one of the rarest gems of wisdom that ever came from the pen of Joseph Addison. English man of letters. These words from the seventeenth century are as true today as they were when Addison conceived them. Men and women in every walk of modern life recognize the value of laughter, how it smoothes life's pathway and lengthens it also. Shakespeare said "Smile in men's faces, smooth, deceive and cog." But laughter exposes its own deception. The hearty laugh dings true. "Laugh and the world laughs with you," but seeks to cover dark thought behind your laughter and the whole world knows it. Among the illiterate and impoverished laughter is natural and unrestrained and even cultivated. It makes life endurable. But with those classes which aspire to culture and refinement as society defines them it is usual to bridle one's laughter. A boisterous laughter is considered crude and one who has given vent to such a spontaneous outburst of enthusiasm and good merriment, upon recovering his of her composure, is apt to experience a feeling of depression and humiliation, not because the laughter afforded no relief but because of what others will think. The fault, and it is a fault, is with society not with culture or the cultured individual. For health's sake let us not "grow too, wise for so great a pleasure" as at least one good laugh a day. There are two sides to every happening and issue, and debt is no exception to the rule. In one direction debt leads to prosperity and plenty but in the opposite direction it arrives at worry and want. It is as well to get into det of the former sort as it is to get out of debt of the latter kind. In dealing with debt it is necessary to distinguish between mere foolish running into debt and investment; between borrowing to buy non-essentials and borrowing for profit by investing the borrowed money in property, safe securities, household necessities or business. Debts wisely created pay themselves but the reckless borrower stands to lose all. None has been oftener forewarned than the foolish borrower. For many centuries the Book of Proverbs has told him "The borrower is servant to the lender." He has needlessly passed over in Shakespeare that admonition, "Neither a borrower nor a lender be; for loan oft loses both itself and friend, and borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry." While from the philosophical Ben Franklin is learned, "He that goes a borrowing, goes a sorrowing." One is not truly in debt who exchanges his loan for its equivalent in something else and preserves the latter until the debt is dissolved, for it is always available for the satisfaction of the importunate creditor. The true debtor is he who dissipates his borrowings before the debt is satisfied. 1.

Section III. History of California and its People, Natural and Artificial Resources, Schools, Schools, Charities. BY. W. J. WHEATON THAT AMPTON STRIKE A number of the "patent leather bag, wide-bottomed, patrolled entry of Old Hampton, went on a "strike," left the Campus because the administrative board would not heed their demand to dim the lights in the Assembly Hall during the showing of moving vehicles. It would have been worse, but yesterday when the doors of Hampton were thrown open for the education of the Indian and but recently freed, Negro. How they rushed to take advantage of that new opportunity to enrich their minds and fit themselves for the new responsibility of citizenship. They cared, not so much for the artificial glass which is used in the windows of the entrance Hampton for a purpose and that purpose was a gainful knowledge. One cannot even imagine Booker T. Washington spending more time in plastering down his hair or measuring the inches in the bottom or his russers, than in the application to his studies; yet the Hampton of those days produced Washington a No. 100-rated school with proven worthy of the confidence of leadership. "He that obeyed must first learn to obey." That is discipline. It's what those obstreperous youngsters need. The present generation of "knowledge seekers" see no disgrace; no shame in expulsion from an institution of learning. We hope that the parents have not forgotten, that they recalcitrant that the needs of the Race are too many; the opportunities too few for any indulgence in frivolous insubordination. We hope ere this that the parents have turned the faces of the erring once more toward the light of knowledge. We have an idea of just how, in the old days, that turn would have been made, but wood sheds itself. We have been taken by Prexey, Cragg should receive the support of every parent as well as the alumn: JIM CROW NEGRO TO BLAME The following from the Portland Ad vocacate we send without comment. It's from the pen of one of the editors and would be appreciated. It should be inspected above its entirety. "The colored people in Gary, Ind, especially that class' which advocates and practices segregation, have no one to blame but themselves for the strike and walk-out of the white children in the high school. It is a well known fact that not long ago some of the colored people of Garyry demanded that they be allowed to attend it; they demanded a separate Y. M. C. A.—and got it. Now it stands to reason if they wanted a separate fire department, a separate Y. M. C. A. and they already had a separate church, that a separate school, if not actually welcomed, would certainly be op-portunity to be billed. The colored women should be employed by the fire department, that colored young men and young women in the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A.'s throughout the country, should be admitted to membership just as other young men and young women are admitted. The Advocate should be employed in the public school systems; not especially to teach colored children, but to teach CHILDREN. We believe that Negro policemen should be on the police force; that Negroes should have positions in the city and state and in the nation's governing force in proportion to the number of Negroes. We believe that our youth should aspire to whatever the youth of any other race aspires to. These are the only ways in which manhood may be stimulated and character grown. But when the race or any portion thereof starts out after separate things and institutions, then usually get some kind of education, they are not blame but themselves for their selfish shortsightedness." Our only comment is that the Advocate, in common with all who preach true Americanism, will be classed among "the traitors to the race." The Mayoralty contest in San Francisco, Cal., has attracted nation-wide interest. The results of the campaign are being awaited as a possible barometer to the political learning of the State in the coming campaign of 1928. While this is being written the present mayor, Robbins is fighting with his opponent or his adversaries is that, should his opponent be elected, the city will revert to the old days of "Bossism" and vice. The police department is engaged actively in the big stick menace. Go into any of the so-called clubs and surreptitious buffet fats and whatever may be happening but Robbins nants. Go into the district where reside the "Sons of Sunny Italy" who make the beverage from the lucious grape, the sentiment is "Power, but do policemen he say, 'No maka da wine.'" In spite of all the pressure the administration has deemed, the unfortunate manner concerned over the attacks of his opponents. His report as a public turns off the assaults with the ease of an armored battleship casting off the batter of a pen shooter. Whatever the outcome Tom Flan is secure in the confidence of the electorate. Doctor Lillendahl, a New Jersey physician of prominence was mysteriously murdered on a highway in his automobile. His wife claimed that two colored men jumped on the run and saunthed her. Diligent search has fail-to reveal any indications of massline footprints. Those discovered at and near the tragedy were feminine, and fitted the shoes of Mrs. Lillendahl. Silence evidence was given to the story, but without the murder remains a mystery. The national office of the Association for the Advancement of Colored People has offered a reward of $2,000 for the apprehension of the murderer or murderer. We hope the reward will help clear the mystery. The Hen, Mayor or Chicago, William Hale Thompson came to the conclusion that certain historical textbooks were mimical to American citizenship inasmuch as they had a pro-British tendency. The patriotic mayor or sentenced the affronting books to certain doom. They were to go to the court and be sentenced for the lake front, and the dare from that blaze was to be a warning to any who failed to revere the name and land the horisotm or America's patriots of the Revolution. But one day the mayor or was caressed gently by a tenacity which whispered encouragingly into the heart of the officer of America for Americans? Did I not inaugurate the idea of intolerance? Am I not the parent of hatreds, religious, national, racial? I am your boon companion and laud you. But glancing about the mayor noticed that the cressing tenacity was attached to a loathsome body burden. Kate Hennepin, a liberal who were stretching to embrace him. The mayor concluded—and wisely—that a little pro-British propaganda was preferable to the companionship of silly Americanism. ON THE SIDEWALK BISHOP Martin of the A. M. E. Zion connection was the morning hour speaker for Men's Day at the Independent Church, Sunday. The Bishop used as his subject, "The Value and Spirit of Service." It is impossible to quote the words of the pastor but to say the least it was a message that rang straight through to the bottom-most part of man's soul. It was a passionate message of hope; a red signal pointing to the one and only highway that leads to right living. "Not what society thinks of you," said Bishop Martin, "but what you really are; for society sometimes sets its value according to the amount of gold and silver in your possession, money and out how this wealth was acquired.

Win a turkey the last night The charge that, Black Americans are not extensive readers is rather sady borne out by their conspicuous absence from the public libraries. Further evidence of this fact may be observed in the sense that, although a private house, it has always been a wonder to me how a self-respecting family could build a modern home, oftimes expensive to the point of extravagance, and yet leave no sign of a space for books. In the quiet evenings for amusement; he wo d they spend the shut-in period when inclement weather will not permit out-of-door activity? is it because we are afraid or ashamed of being daubed, "intellectual" that we are not interested in mental lives? It certainly cannot be due to the expense either of money or time that prohibits the accumulation of a decent library and the use thereof of considering the amount of money and time we devote to useless enterprising activities in a book a month at an average cost of Two Dollars ($2.50) and fifty cents a month and three (3) hours a week in a public library would do a great deal towards erasing this disgraceful stigma from the race.....since every individual sin committed by a black person On a visit to one of the branch libraries in the heart of the black colony, I was informed that circulation there is so poor as to make the maintenance of the branch almost a dead weight for tax-payers to carry. And yet, if there were no library, what a weight of "discrimination" would go up from members of this group. The point is that while we have to pay for the pleasant privilege of having a library within a stone's throw of our doors, we may as well use it and since we are not a library, man and it costs so little, we should cultivate the gentle art of reading extensively or otherwise. This week I found at the Helen Hunt Library, Copper Sun—(Harper and Brothers, N. Y.), a collection of poems by Countee Cullen, popular N. Y. poet and author of "Cow or" and "The Ballad of the Brown Girl." Copper Sun is decorated by Charles Cullen who, by the way, is not related to Coinetee. It is said that Charles' father, being interested in anyone whose name is Cullen, bought the copper sun. It later developed that Charles was an artist...hence these very beautiful drawings which he did for Coinetee Cullen's book and truly they are beautiful to "bold" (Gwendon Bennett in Opportunity). To say that Copper Sun is an artistic beardsey is only suggestive, for while there may be a degree of similarity in decorative effects, there is decidedly more of sheer lightness and beauty and artistic symbolism in Copper Sun. Copper Sun is sophisticated and realism to be found in that of Beardsey. Sunate will not allow a detailed description of Copper Sun's decorations—they alone are worth the price of the book and mats—but we are forced to give you an example of Copper Sun's Dark Tower, dedicated to Charles S. Johnson, for which Chas. Cullen has done an especially striking illustration to these lines: "...there are buds that cannot bloom at all In light, but crumple, piteous, and fall: So in the dark we hide the heart that bleeds. And wait, and tend our agonizing seeds." Counterte Cullen, the poet, and if it is his book we review, Charles' drawings notwithstanding...who 'must have sweets to remember by' and aids a wine to sweeten to sweeten to sweeten for the oldest wine's on the 41p' sings his best in Copper Sun with love as the principle theme as: to "Olande" with a gay, fantastic game called Name Me - a Name, played beneath an apple tree. A sweet, red apple in a brown box on their feet. They bliss and "love me at disney". a gay, fantastic game as old as genesis, yet ever new. Such are his themes, for the most part of love: stamouth love, rejected love, love like common clay. But, in Threnody for a Brown Girl, the poet leaves love-strain to sting in her heart. In love-strain her whom death could not with one, trenchant blow snatch out of reach. And the combination of these two contrasting philosophies seems anything but paradoxical. We read: "Now she knows the Why and Where-Troubulous Whence and Whither, Wise as Solomon. And at the same time.... "Pluck no flower lost she scream; Brune no alender seed; Brune it worm me more it seem, Lest she grow and bleed." If Copper Sun does not give Countee Cullen a ranking place among America's foremost poets, it is because he has been judged by some standard other than poetic principles, for his rhythm is a pulsing and immanent sound; for his wind"...full of the "beauty born of murmuring sound"; and his imaginative and emotive expression never falls to awaken emotions in the reader that correspond to his own suggested moods. His diction is adequately chosen to give utterance to his joys and sorrows, moving his readers by its beauty, charming by its rhythm.

LOCAL RACE MAN APPPOINTED FIELD SUPERVISOR BY THE NATIONAL UNDERWRITERS CORPORATION The National Underwriters Corporation, California Managers for the Atlas Life Insurance Company, General Agents for the Great American Casualty Company, Local Agents for the Fidelity Union Fire Insurance Company, and the Fidelity Union Casualty Insurance Company, have appointed that Mr. Wm. R. Fulks, 10501% South Compton Avenue, has been appointed a Field Supervisor with authority to present to the public a very attractive Sick and Accident insurance policy. This policy, although selling for only $10.00 per year gives excellent coverage for the amount charged. Prior to this time the National Underwriters Corporation has been a closed corporation, no capital stock having been released to the public. However, Mr. M. C. Reese, President of the corporation, has intimated that, due to the rapid development of the insurance industry, a small portion of the capital stock may be sold to policy holders. At present, Mr. Fulks will devote his time and efforts to the development of a field force of salesmen and saleswomen to handle the aforementioned insurance policy. This will be a wonderful opportunity for men and women to develop their skills in developing corporation to obtain work that is both pleasant and profitable. Anyone interested in such a proposition should immediately get in touch with Mr. Fulks at his office, 10601% South Compton Avenue, Los Angeles, when an interview will be granted. Experience in insurance application will not be necessary for applications will be special training and instruction according to the policies of the National Underwriters Corporation. 1 GLADYS MA THONICAN The fact that colored boys are being used in a kind of prelude game at the opening of a big Hollywood, Skating Palace may be the forerunner or teams of colored games being admitted to compete in ice hockey. Investigations are being made by the Sports editor of this publication and if accepted girls teams for the thrilling game will be formed at once. Girl rooters really did their bit at the big Tojan classic Saturday. It was, rah! rah! rah! and some noise.

Dust from the Campus Oh boy, rent you gud it's over? It was really grand and thrilling while it lasted. But, sias! The Golden Bears have gone by the way of no harm—and took me with them for a "buck." The past gone, University of Southern California vs. California, J. has created every bit of effect that was expected of it. The game brought into the city people prominent in the social and political arena, who have been beamed in doubt, wonderfully blessed by this infusion of added culture among us. The game furnished the proper rivalry between the schools as well as the natural rivalry that exists between the schools of the southern part of the State. Well, that ends it; that is, as far as we are particularly concerned about Western football. That deadly rivalry, that excites us all for the moment, has been congenicated; a victory for U. S. C, and a defeat for California. Now Gang, watch for the opening of the Y. M. C. A. Basketball League, they really have some swell teams practicing. More next week. Send in the news. rellows. GIANTS STRIKE THEIR STRIDE DOWN ALL-STARS 5-0: 8-2 Murky skies and the great Babe Ruth and Gehrig as counter attractions did not prevent, over 3000 Winter League fans from watching the Hildale Giants like up to their names. They were a bunch of pill swapping base stealing, fly catching battlers who went on the diamond determined to win. No need to follow Babe Ruth. Most anyone of those colored boys if white would be big leaguers and famous as the Bambino. Borkwitt's fielding Hubbards home run- Warfield and Dixons double steal following Dixons two base hit and Flomnyn's pitching were some of the big features Sunday. The boys rapped Ludolph so that he was pulled in the 7th and Wilkinson substituted but too late as the damage was done. Stevens made a sensational run and put out at third but was unluckily spiked. The game was not won easily though for the Pirones, Major and Minor League. All Stars played good ball. Sawyer Muesel and Herman made two base hits, matching those made Flomnyn and Dixon. Muesel also drew a big hand by catching a fly off the left field fence. Beckwith with the same performance on the right field fence was another sensation of the day. Next Saturday and Sunday November 5th and 7th marks the official opening of the Winter League, with the All-Stars playing Rube Ellis' Orange, team at the Orange County fair grounds Anaheim and the Cleveland Stars great colored leaguers tackling the Giants at White Sox Park 38th and Ascot. The Cleveland club's roster includes many players who participated in the 1926 race, including Outfielders Stearns and Halloway, Infielders Methel, Allen and Wells; Catcher Pullen and Duncan and Pitchers Hassney and Cooper. THE ELEPHANT Even if "Deacon" Tiger Flowers never gets to win back the title from Mickey Walker, that "Cutie" Kearns "Yingered" him out of in Chicago style he has plenty of backs to last him the rest of his life. He is still middleweight champion in the eyes of the world and still adding piles of jack to the nearly half million he already has in the old sock to show for the socks he has given and taken. The new pride of Central Avenue will lead a small army to watch him at battle. Clyde Davis, the claver 130-pound boxer who beat Jimmy Fox at Culver City three weeks ago, has been signed to meet Bobby McFarlane, Reilly Mexican A brief rest, the resumption of training, then the short wait for Thursday night. That was the program of wealtier weight champion Joe Dundee and Ace Haddick, the principals in Southern California's most important title fight in years. Promoter Dick Donald postponed his show from Saturday until Thursday night because of bad weather. Rather than bring thousands of fans from long distances, only to have them dis AGE HUDNING appointed at the last minute by noon pamphlet, the little newspaper announced in plenty or time that there would be no light until Thursday night, November 3. In spite of all unfavorable handicaps, Donald was ready to go ahead with his show, yes—with a $100,000 investment in jeopardy. It was and is the biggest sheet he has ever had, yet rather than disappoint the public he would have endangered, a lot of money, Donald uss entitled to more than a little credit. Challenger Ace Hudkins weighed in at 147 at three o'clock while the hampton tipped the beams at 144. Both Dundee and Hudkins are in the pink. The lay-off period came as a disappointment at first, with both fighters ready to step into the ring. Money is even with indications that Dundee will be made the favorable at ring time. The boys along Spring Street and Central Avenue, however, are stringing along with the Wildcat. He has made the money boys "dough-rey-me" and they're ready to put it on his nose. It has been heard from a few local Negro boxers who would never have been heard of if the ballyhooing of the colored papers had not brought them the following of Negro fans that promoters expect. Many white people in many cities read Negro papers, and why? We will tell next issue. Kenneth Wallace Earns 'Draw with Ortega at Tia Juana Kenneth Wallace, known as the Boy Wonder, fought a hard battle to a draw at Tie Jams, Saturday, October 29th against the tough hard-hitting Mexican, Joe Ortega, in the main event. Ortega and Wallace brought the large crowd to their feet as they dislapped away at each other to see Keneth was a little too clever for his Mexican opponent and although most of the fans were Mexicans they cheered the efforts of the colored boy roundly. Wallace who is getting good breaks at last is to fight against an unnamed opponent at the big opening of the season's races. For Tasty Lunches— TOWNS LUNCH 1 The biggest upset on the gridiron during the last week in my estimation was the California.U. S. C. game. I figured Nibs Prices' men to defeat the Jongsits by at least 2 touchdowns. Bat U. S. C. played airtight football and made their own, breaks and took them when they came. The Bear ball packers just couldn't get started. Elsan was the only California man to make any yardage that amounted to anything. The Trojan forwards rushed Lom when he attempted to pass, and they had him spotted when it came to carrying the Tornado. He was not played California in every department of the game except the kicking, and Lom lived up to his reputation as a wonderful kicker, averaging approximately 52 yards a boot. Dury ran wild Saturday making more yards himself than the entire Bear team. The Eastern favorites did not suffer many set-backs. Yale seems to be a wonderful team after a poor start. The Eli boys smeared Dartmough 30-0. The Army beat Bucknell 34-0. Harvard ran over indiana 26-0. I was watching the football game between the Wilshire Olympic and the N. N. B. Clubs. If that was a football game I'm a Chinaman. After the first quarter I lost count of the score. The N. N. B.'s scored touchdowns at will if the boys had had their track suits on the spectators would have thought it was a field meet. Let's talk boxing!

Due to the fact that witches and goblins were abroad, this past week, and people were somewhat reluctant to venture on the court for fear of being carried to heights unknown; and also due to the aggregation from the north that invaded this city for the big football game, over last weekend, causing things to be in a whirl, there has been very little tennis activity locally.

B. team defeated the Olympic Club on Jefferson High School football field, before a colorful crowd of 500, Sunday, October 30. The Orange team may not be the best football team in the country, but they can play until the best team comes. The squad was at its peak last Sunday and played a brilliant game of football. The game got under way when "Greasy" Townes received a kick off and returned it 20 yards to the Olympic 40 yard line. After a success of line bucks and off tackle plays, the oval rested on the Olympic Club's 20 yard line and the next play Benjamin hit left tackle for a gain or 15 yards and first down on the Olympic Club's 5 yard line. On the next play Benjamin crashes off guard for touchdown, but Rosser failed to kick goal, and this started the slaughter of the Olympic Club. There is one thing that can be said about the Olympic Club—they may not have the best team in town, but there is not a cleaner team than they are! Every man on the team is a thoroughbred sport and everyone plays a clean and scrappy game. Of course you must give the Olympic Club credit for their game stand but they were superiorly outplayed from start to finish. The N. N. B's, went like a house on fire and displayed championship class. The only department of the game that the Orange Team is lacking, in, is against an aerial game which, if they Else, they must polish up, which is no easy job. W. TOWNES UNSTOPABLE "W. TOWNES was the star of the game. He carried the ball for large gains throughout the game. His judgement at quarter cannot be questioned. He piloted the team like a veteran and showed the carmarks or a general. This boy is on his way to land a berth on the all-club team. Townes made four touchdowns. Townes was unstoppable on his off tackle plays and his interference was perfect. "Warpie" Dade performed just as brilliantly while acting as pilot in the squad. "Warpie" is a little man but he is some football player. His work was the potent factor and the success of the team's brilliant showing. The entire N. N. B's, forward wall was impregnable and the Olympic's attack was pulled. Horton, Brown, Cook, Drisden, Townes and Rosser tackled Mercely. Rosser's terrific tackling was responsible for injury of Harris, an Olympic club's back who was hit hard by Rosser, and caused him to fumble, the pigskin being recovered by Rosser. "Budie" Benjamin—that's what they call this plunging fullback, repeatedly smashed the Olympic line for a large gain. Benjamin went in with a hard leg but never let up in his terrific line plunging. Ponzo Allen showed some stuff that has made him famous. He was in there snagging passes and spilling interference time and again. This boy is really easy to look at and is a first class footballer. H. Clay, subbing at full, was a real find. On his first play, an off tackle smash, he went over for a tockdown, from the 15 yard line, and from then on he was unstopable. Capt. Townes at tackle played a wonderful game and is sure to make a name for himself and push the other competitors for a place on the AllClub Team. He is a deally tackler and can also gallop with the pligain. Martin at end played his best game. Time and again he went through the secondary defense of the Olympic club Philadelphia, Pa.—Local business men have authorized the publication of an announcement that the sum of $700,000 awaits Gene Tunney the day he meets to take on George Godley in a gerrymandering bout in this city. It was revealed today. *The announcement was made in a local daily paper and carries the sanction of "Gentleman Jim" Dougherty, manager of Godley, who agreed to accept $50,000 as his share of the gate. to nag the player before he could get started. This boy will bear watching as he is improving with us and he will be A1 condition when the Merry Makers and N. N. B.'s hook up. "RUNT" BOYCE MISSED The work of "Runt" Boyce was missed very much. Billy is really a nifty little ball luger and can be relied upon any old time to deliver the goods. He will be ready to go when the referee blows his whistle on November 13, the game which will decide the championship. Johnson and Moore, taking turns at half, showed some class and these boys will be hard to stop later on in the season. The Olympic Club can say for themselves that they have a fighting bunch of players who never give up until the final whistle. The club will be in much better shape on its next showing. The work of Carnegie and Hines were the outstanding polite for the Olympics. Carnegie is a big man and is leading the way on his feet. The fleet-booted Norris unable to get going and that is the reason for the Olympic Club's detest. Next Sunday, the Merry Makers will tangle with the La Premiere. This is going to be a great game and everyone should come out. Game to be held at Symphony field. cats Swamp Selden Institute of Brunswick Ca., 23-6, at Bay- town Beach Rv.: (GHOST) MUNGEN The Wildcats turned in their second victory of the season Friday, October 27, by defeating Selden Institute, of Brunswick, Georgia. The game was a hard fought one from the time the whistle was blown starting the game until the referee ended the game. Fifty of the sixty minutes found the ball in Selden's territory, far beyond the forty yard time, and the Wildcats scored at will. The Wildcats' front wall saw much opposition, but they conquered it like real gridders. The backfield met with much less difficulty, for while the invincible line was holding, the backs were skirting the ends for from six to eight yards at a time. "tim" Lundy gained more yardage, than any other Wildcat; while "Snag" Waldon of the second team made the longest run, intercepting a pass on his shirty yard line, and not being stopped until he had raced to the opponents' eight yard line. George Godfrey K. O's. Tom Sayers George Gottrey the "black Shadow of Lupesville" knocked out Tom Sayen in 1 minute and 54 seconds of the first bell. The fight took place at Philadelphia.

Unfortunately the penman was unable to pay his respects but we can truthfully say those there had the time of their life. Santa Monicans never do things half. Those who read the editorial in the columns of this paper last week on November truly must have smiled at our famous editor and the article. There is always an exception, and he must have dreamed what he penned. Dreamed that once more he was in Kansas spending November where all he wrote comes to pass. But here in California and especially Los Angeles, where flowers reach their perfection, where autumn leaves, are over absent, where as one motors over the highways the air is ever charged with the sweet and fragrant essence of numerous citrus groves, where mild welcome rains moisten the earth, and gentle zypher breezes instead of wild winds stir the atmosphere. Lawns look like velvet, snow is barred, old Japiter Pulvis and the man in the moon conviving make overcoats a burden and artificial heat unnecessary, truly dear editor, we know not such a November as you speak of. As for turkeys, pumpkin pies and doughnuts, we readily assent but then we forget, pardon us. We humbly apologize. Just came to us, you were writing of conditions on earth, while we were mentioning facts as they exist here in Heaven—we apologize. W. J. Wheaton is a character by himself. His writings which appear in our weekly are read and discussed by every one. A mutual friend of ours dropped in from Frisco and his whole subject was W. J. We often wondered why he was so content to remain up North but now the secret is out—'tis his home. We learn he has a home that is a home inside, outside, from curb to garage with trimmings, so we can't blame him: No wonder he writes so well. Well, the ghost walked last Saturday night. Patriotic Hall was full of them, they came in autos and taxcabs, street cars and footmobiles. They came fully regaled in crossbones and skulls. 'Twas a sight to see. Once a year this dead bunch rises from its grace and walks. The affair like an eclipse ended at midnight and things again looked normal. Never had a better time, said all. Charles Corners was more at home than any one at the Ghost affair last Saturday. We have a hunch why. He—raved, stormed, stamped the ground, spoke French and threatened everyone because some put a crate on his coupe top and tore a hole in it. We hear Westbrooks, the top-man, fixed him up and the atmosphere on Central Avenue is again inhalable. Miss Birdella Robinson's coupe looks like a million since it was treated to a duco cosmetic by the Harrison Paint Shoppe. Henseley Brothers have closed out their garage and repair shop and have gone into the gas station and battery W T business with their father-in-law. Their location is A1. E. B! Maxey, the contractor, and his Overland, were down on the Avenue last week for the first time in several weeks. H. A. Reeves, one of our best known business Negroes, motored by and dissected the race the other day. H. A. sure knows the Negro. We overheard the Managing Editor talking the other day about Xmas and the Eagle. Looks like the Xmas Number is to be bigger than ever. Oh yes, the automotive section is going to form a part of it. Aviation amongst our group is being fostered by Mr. Frederick W. Wells. We haven't met the gentleman but that isn't essential for what we have to say. Commercial aviation is here and he hooves the Negro to get on the job. Opportunity awaits qualification. True flying is extracting its tool of human life but statistics will show that stunt flying and racing is largely the cause of so many deaths. Get busy, young man, learn the game. The Cleveland traffic cop that arrested the couple for spooning in their car at the curb recently has our sympathy, poor fellow. He meant well but it only cost him $2500. It happened to be man and wife and they brought charges of false arrest and imprisonment. Of course Los Angeles policemen aren't so dumb. They are equipped with distinctops which informs them of the difference between single and married couple. Ran into Brother McIlinton and Jake Jones the other day. Both are Portland friends of yester-years. It was a pleasure to note that both wore the same smile and that father Time was kind to them. Geo. McCard of Oakland motored down to see California get a thumping last Saturday at the football game. Better luck, next time, old man. Bill Wheat, the garage man, got into an argument with his acetatey torch and came off second best. Too bad, Bill, never try to argue with fire. Jack Montgomery, who has a patent that he claims will revolutionize flying sails for Japan today to be gone two years. The patent has been acquired by the Japanese government, so he states. He will be accompanied by his son and his famous Diana automobile. So long, Jck, don't forget to come back home. Mr. S. C. Guess is having installed upon the premises of the Dorssey Super Service Station a first class wash rack with modern equipment. Watch for the announcement of its opening in our columns. Bootlegging in traffic is henceforth to cease. Of course this may be a new term applied to an old existing swill—that of tag-fixing. No chance to look up your favorite, cop, hand him the tag to have fixed and forget about it. When that dear, affable, sweet-liking, smiling, uniformed traffic policeman with the six-shooter strapped to his side accompanied by some for 50 rounds of ammunition and a ability at his side reinforced by the authority of the law, hands you a tag insign accept for Los Angeles new patent, quadruplicate, nonflexible traffic tag is now in effect. After this, according to Capt. Clyde Plummer, the only way to dispose of a traffic tag will be to post cash ball, make a court appear, or leave town. "Taggees" will have five days in which to visit the new Traffic Bureau in the International Building, 118 West Temple street, after which, according to Captain Plummer, warrants will be issued. In minor offenses, ball equaling the usual fine can be deposited; in major ones the motorist will have to appear in court. However, there is a silver lining to the situation. Tags will be issued, according to Captain Plummer, only for real violations of the traffic code, ending the present "borderline" citations. HENRY ON HIS WAY Henry Ford is finally on his way to production we hear. And everyone is glad or that. Especially the hundreds of Ford agencies who have witnessed a lean year. Many have been forced out of business, none have prospered. Then two thousands of employees have suffered a loss in wages and purchasing power, running into millions of dollars. All business has been slowed down waiting on Henry. The first of the new models has been turned out and front on now produce will pick up till it reaches 11000 a day, the new normal output. Thousands have placed orders ahead for a machine they never have seen but the Ford reputation is all they want, they are willing to take a chance and it looks like a sane one. When your wife says, "You may say what you want to, but I know this is the right road," do you ever take advantage of your opportunity? Why not a prize to the first girl who walks home a total of one hundred miles this fall? OVER PRODUCTION According to the government there is an over-production at present or oil and the waste is running into millions of dollars a day. This no doubt is true but from the present price of gas the motoring public can't realize or believe it. In the same breath one might state there is an over-production of automobiles. The saturation point has for the present been reached. Many dealers are advancing car owners buy good cars for the least years. Statistics tell the average life of an automobile is now thirteen years, yet folks no more than get the old one paid for before they talk about purchasing a new one. This brings about a tremendous waste of raw material that will give posterity something to worry about in years to come perhaps. care of your auto and in doing so you will save money and too leave some material for posterity to work with. Big business reminds one of some individuals who thing only of the present and themselves at the expense of coming generations. You can't gauge a man's income by the size of his gas tank. Jim: "How many will your car hold?" Tim: "Pints or quarts?" A summary of the new, automobile legislation which became effective last July and a reminder of the important points for motorists to remember are contained in the following discussion by the Legal Department of the National Automobile Club. The speed-limit on open highways is now 40 miles an hour. Important to be remembered in connection with the new speed-limit are the facts that there is absolutely no "five mile" leeway and that rockless driving is in more distavor than ever before. Remember that no matter at what speed a motorist is driving, if he is arrested for rockless driving, he will incur a severe penalty. Hereafter, all applicants for drivers' licenses must submit to an examination. Tests of hearing and of eyesight must be passed; the successful applicant must show that he has a general knowledge of the California laws concerning the operation of motor vehicles, and must prove to the satisfaction of his examiners that he is competent of driving and of exercising proper, care in the operation or a motor vehicle. It is now mandatory upon the Division of Motor Vehicles to revoke for a period of twelve months the operator's or chauffeurs license of any person convicted of manslaughter resulting from the operation of a motor vehicle; or of any crime constituting a felony under the California Vehicle Act; or or any other felony in the same mission of which a motor vehicle is used; or convicted upon three charges or reckless driving within a period of twelve months from the time of the first conviction. The driver of any vehicle involved in an accident which results in death or serious injury to any person must make a report to the police station if the accident occurs in a city or town, or, if the accident take place in unincorporated territory, he must make a report direct to the Division. Two headlights, no more and no less than two automobile. Not more than two spotlights are to be carried on any car. Any motor vehicle with a body or load width of more than eighty inches, must carry two clearance lamps. Lamps and bulbs used in sidelights are not to exceed four candle power. Sidelights include any lights the rays of which shine forward, except headlights, spotlights and auxiliary lights. Failure or refusal of any person selling a car to deliver to the buyer a certificate or registration is a misdemeanor under the law as amended. Used car dealers must notify the Division of Motor Vehicles of every sale or transfer made. Garagemen are required to report any cars remaining with them for a period of thirty days if the name of the owner is unknown to them.
