1879 CALIFORNIA EAGLE 1927 VOLUME 41 NEGRO It is authentically reported that the long contested Prince Hall Cemetery on the Little Lake Shore road terminated in a decision in favor of the people of color this week. The decision was handed down by Judge Claire F. Taapan, who is a four square official. The coveted burial ground accommodates 8000 graves and is a beautiful site. Many persons of means of the white race live near by and, for a long time they could not bring themselves around to feeling that it would be possible for them to start the long Heavenward Journey over the graves of so many Black folk. Police Raid Dope Dens In Harlem Police Raid Dope Dens In Harlem New York, N. Y., Dec. 1, — (By The Associated Negro Press) — Police drives against dope peddlers are going forward vigorously in an effort to smash the ring which exists in Harlem. During the past week, the promises at 16th West 136th Street were raided near midnight. Entering the house, the police discovered a regular layout and two white women, said to be charms girls, stupefied from the effects of dope. The men and women are further charged with being dope peddlers, a quantity of dope being found in the house at the time. Others in the house tried to escape during the raid, but were unable to get away. Both women were ordered held in $1,000 bail when arraigned in court. Friday night, fifty thousand dollars worth of alleged opium and six opium pipes, inlaid with mother of pearl, were taken at 111 West 132nd Street, when police staged their second sensational raid.

No chairs were in the apartment, cashions and brassock served; instead, Large mirrors on the walls occupied one entire side of the rooms. Magnificent Oriental patrons covered the floors and luxury was the keynote of the apartmnt. Bail was denied the men on account of the large, creatity of opium found in the apartment. Presiding Elder J. H. Wilson Returns From Trip to Mid-West Rev. James H. Wilson. Presiding Elder of the Southern California A.M. E. Conference and who is a prominent and dominant figure in the National Councils of his church, returned last Monday from a brief trip to the mid-west. He visited Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Baley, Ardmore and other cities in Oklahoma. He reports that the people in general where he visited are making a wonderful progress. His trip was primarily in the interest of the Western Christian Recorder which he hopes to bring to this city after the General Conference in May, 1928. He found a strong sentiment favoring this move and feels certain that the long hoped for movement for the far West will at last be realized. Last Sad Rites For Richard Ewell The Angelus Funeral Home Jefferson and Central Aye, was crowded to the stumbst on last Monday when members of the Legion of which he was a member overtaxed the capacity of the spacious home to pay their last respects over the remains of their late comrade Richard Ewell, floral offerings were profuse and the ceremony touching indeed. The world's war veteran was 38 years of age his home was in Philadelphia, he leaves not only his former comrades but a host of friends who mourn his passing.

Lincoln-British Debate Attracting Much Interest (By: A. N. P.) New York, N. Y., Dec. 7.—Unusual interest is being shown in the coming debate between representatives from the-leading English colleges and those from Lincoln University, which is to be held in this city on December 11. The English speakers are recruited from the University of London, the University of Reading and the University of Edinburgh. On the Lincoln team are Richard Hill, a member of the team which reelected Oxford University last year; Thurgood Marshall of the team which debated Pennsylvania State College and Malcolm Dade, holder of a Delta Sigma Chi d'butting key.

Fitz Neason, president of the local alumni chapted and the Rev. J. W. Brown. POLICE END CHURCH SQUABBLE (By: A, N, P.) Rockville Center, N. Y., Dec. 7. It took the Mayor and the chief of Police of this little hamlet to stamp out an quiet the rebellion existing in the Second Baptist Church here last week. The trouble grew out or the expulsion of several members and a deacon or so, who differed from the pastor's, Rev. F. R. Banks, point of view. Fights followed, in which bricks flew freely. So heated did the argument and the fight, which followed became. It was necessary to call out the pellet to gretel the mob which had assembled outside the church. However, Mayor Charles E. Richmond and Chief of Police Tyree G. Gibson were persuaded to attend the meeting held Thursday night and managed to restore peace between the warring factions. Those expelled from the church were Benny Jenkins, James Brooks; Coa G. Brooks, clerk of the church; Millie Clark and Eugene Hilbert. Their places were filled by Aubrey R. Radd Lilly; William Lilly, and Henry Gordon. The Rev. Banks is still in charge of the flock. All Signs Point To Greatest Baseball Season on the Coast Developments during the last few days in baseball circles point to a better understanding between the players and promoters as well and it is reasonable to predict that what at one time threatened as a disappointment from the fact that the Cleveland Stars would not play to the home crowd, will all be adjusted and all the star players will have the opportunity to show their wares and this situation will result in furnishing some of the greatest baseball ever put forth in this entire country. It now develops that the whole affair was a simple a misunderstanding from the outset and some sinister influence had caused the same. With a full understanding by all the players including the promoters and managers everything will be rosy from now on. Only from the fact that the stars had been booked to Ventura for next Saturday and Sunday they would have crossed bats with the mighty Hillsdale Giants on those days. As it is Art Johns will assemble an All-Star team, so it is said, which will attempt to beat the unbeatable Giants at White Sox Park, Saturday and Sunday. PROMOTERS POSITION The position of Joe Poirronne and J. P. White of the major and minor All-Stars as well as Mr. Boykin of the Cleveland Stars is for the good of baseball first, last and all the time; they trown upon the guarded inboxes which tend to disrupt and stand strictly for the things which will advance the same. STICK TO SCHEDULE A perusal of the original schedule which was approved by all hands gave even to the travelling teams the Fu- rone outfit and Cleveland Star. 20 LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1927 DETECTIVE SERGEANT HEAD OF VICE SQUAD EXHONERATED On last Friday, Sergeant of Detectives, Rueben Scott, was suspended from his position on charges which amounted to suspicion of extortion. The charge emanated from one Dr. Wyman who claimed that at the instance of Officer Scott he secured fifty dollars to square a case in which a still was at issue. The party he solicited the money from informed the police who in turn set a trap, and when the wiley Dr. Wyman, recently paroled from the penitentiary, collected the money, the police grabbed him with the marked money. He told several stories about it and finally said officer Scott sent him for the money. The officer was given a hearing on last Monday before the trial board of the police department, which body, after a thorough investigation, exonerated him of all blame and restored him immediately to his former position. It is to be regretted that on officer with the reputation of officer Scott, would be suspended for one minute upon the uncorroborated word of a man of the character of this Dr. Wyman, who is a two time loser, having been sent up to Leavenworth from Texas in 1921 for a stretch of years, and sent up from Los Angeles in 1924 to serve 24 for trafficking recently resorted to the S.

Camo Beauty Parlor In New Location The Camo Beauty Parlor, formerly located at 956 East 23rd street, has moved into its new home at 2303 Griffith avenue. The Camo Hair Company is a well known cosmetic company of Los Angeles and has been established for games at the White Sox Park. The schedule was for the Stars to play Hillsdale on Thanksgiving Day and Pirrone's was to play the 26th and 27th; this was where a misunderstanding came about and not realizing how futile it was to change the schedule somebody erred and it is said now that this has been cleared up and the Stars will fill out the schedule. After next Sunday. PARK RENTALS In justice to Joe Pirkrone all hands agree as to his interest in the game and the magnificent support he has given to the advantage of the Color-ed players. It is apparent with four months only of Winter Baseball, which carries with it an upkeep of nigh unto $10,000 for the Park that the 25% charge is fair and reasonable, this amount is the expense for upkeep without one word being said about interest upon his investment of very near $20,000.00. In this situation the fans can rest assured that gilt-edge baseball will always be served, and players such as we have in our midst will at all time receive a fair and square deal. Here hoping that this season with players and fans pulling together will bring to pass the greatest year that baseball has ever experienced on these Western shores. to serve 24 months in both instances for trafficking in dope.

Chinese Lottery Sharks On The Run On receipt of quite a number of queries during the past week relative to the reappearance on the east side of the Chinese Lottery Sharks, a representative of this paper paid a visit Newton Street and on inquiry of the officials, we were shown the police blotter which unfolded the fact that in the last week there had been more than 100 lottery arrests made and convictions secured in all cases and while we were guiding the blotter the officers brought in a bunch of the Chinese Sharks.

He further stated that as far as it is possible to overtake the willey Chinese, lottery sharks we will do our very best.

Elks Make Magnificent Showing in Annual Memorial Parade Elks Make Magnificent Showing in Annual Memorial Parade Last Sunday was indeed a gala day for the local branch or the Improved Benevolent Protective Order of Elks of the World when they turned out as their custom each year to pay tribute to the memory of their departed brothers. Headed by the Elks' Band directed by L. McBeth and by Capt. Bratton's famous Drill Team all toggled up in their new uniforms; they received the hearty approval of all who saw them. This wonderful Drill Team is one of the outstanding accomplishments of the Elks through Captain W. P. Bratton, the famous drill master. Following the Drill Team came the Order proper, some four hundred old strong, all in regulation dress—fizzes, and etc., as a body of men as one could assemble at any time or place. Following came the Elks' Drum Corp. who builders pooled forth strains of music and the drummers shook up the old town as never before. Following, the body proper came the officers of the Lodge in machines and a good number of daughters of the Anxiliary. The line of march was from the Odd Fellows Hall on 5th and Wail Sts., East to Central Ave.; South to 27th St.; West to Paloma St., to Beth Eden Church, where the memorial service was held. A very appropriate service was held after which Rey James Washington delivered the Annual Sermon. Concluding he service the Drill Team gave a most wonderful exhibition which elected the highest appreciation from all. The body then returned to their hall over the same line of march then bringing to a conclusion the greatest memorial day ever held in its entire history. KILLED UNFAITHFUL HUSBAND Baton Rouge, La. Dec. 7.—Secure in her belief that murder motivated by revenge for marital infidelity was legal. Ella Williams split bar sleeping husband's head with an axe, the victim, Robert Williams, dying a few minutes later. When arrested, the woman based her defense on the experience of a neighbor who had killed her husband without a legal punishment and insisted that she be not arrested. CONNER-JOHNSON. Distinctive Undertakers, have not only undertaken, but through the medium of a very unique calendar effect thermometer, have succeeded in impressing their artistic personalities as well as their human interest upon their many clients. The calendar, which is both beautiful and useful, will add to the wall attraction of any office or room: THEY will without any question, join the ranks of Los Angeles' leading musical entertainers—Mrs. Bella O'Neal and her blind husband, we are speaking of. They came over one evening, last week, sang, played and Mr. O'Neal read several of his original poems, which we pronounce good. Mrs. O'Neal for a number of years has advanced the musical interests of Los Angeles' youngest and swifter students and this couple have decided that they would give the public the benefit of their many years of study and strict application to music interpretation. Even though he is afflicted with blindness, Mr. O'Neal reads his original poems and sines with feeling and it is hoped by us that when this couple make their first appearance some time in January, that the public will show its appreciation by coming forward. "MY AFRICAN MAID" by Miss Edna Rossiyman Heard proved to be first prize winner in the Krigwa (The Crisis is Guild of Writers and Artists) prizes which are awarded each year in literature and art. Awards have previously been won by Countee Cullen, eminent poet; Wilfs Richardsen, playwright, and Charles W. Chestnut, distinguished novelist. This year the first prize in songs has been awarded Miss Heard, Miss Hard is the first Negro graduate from the vocal department of the College of Music, U. S. C., and has studied composition with Julia Howell-Marshall, Dr. Joseph Grief and Prof. Charles E. Pemberton. The California Tagle unstintingly extends its congratulations to this young woman and prays that she will move upward and onward until she will have reached at least the shadow of the fame now enjoyed by Burleigh. FROM East 51st street to the sea along Central avenues, Negro Business, like Sherman's army of old, is moving slowly, but seriously onward and outward. Pickling up the trail this week at 25th and Central, we find on the southwest corner, Harris' Pharmacy; 2803 Central, office of Dr. Harris, physician and surgeon; 2802 Central, Pergola Market; 2804 Central, Bessie's Beauty Parlor; 2802 Central, Alston's Realty; 2802 Central, Wood Wilson's Realty; 2808 Central, the Ebisie Cafe; 2808 J. O. Dudley's Building. And we pause here to say that this man Dudley is a marvel of thrift and industry, at 2812 Central he has erected a two-story brick building which is the home of his all modern tailor shop downstairs with splendidly equipped office room on the second floor housing Dr. Pillow's dental parors and Dr. E. W. Kyle's offices. In the rear of the building is the modern flat of Mr. and Mrs. Dudley and in the back yard a chicken and rabbit ranch also the family garage. Mr. Dudley has utilized every inch of space in his possession but his entire plant is clean, neat and up to the standard in every way. If has been reported to us that a few high powered social crooks are operating various get-rich-quick schemes at the expense of the entire race. We can but hope that this report is at variance with the true facts in the case for if such is true, it is a sad reflection on the whole group. Men who occupy high stations socially, religiously and every other way except politically, should not represent themselves as leaders unless they really and truly have the interests of those low down and high up alike at heart. The friends and well wishers of Ralph Johnson Bunche will be delighted to know that in the recent案 he will maintain grade, "A". This is very remarkable because of the fame of the school and the high staulding of the students there. As a special guest of Dr. John M. Sly, Harvard Professor. Ralph will spend the Xmas in Washington, D. C., where he will come in contact with scores of fraternity men. Ralph sends Xmas greetings to his many friends. UPTON'S RAILROAD CLATTER By Chas. L.

FASTER TRAINS EAST RUMORED Two more hours off the Los Angeles to Chicago rail time? Here to Chicago in 61 hours next? According to persistent reports from Chicago, that will be the next joint move of the three major transcontinental lines—the Southern Pacific, the Santa Fe and the Union Pacific. Conferences are reported to have been held in the midwest terminal city recently, at which plans are mapped for the further relation of passenger running time between there and the coast, after the recent cut to the 63 hours schedule, following a long campaign on the part of the Los Angeles Examiner and other Hearst newspapers. Los Angeles officials of each of the big three lines withheld affirmation or the eastern reports. However none voiced outright denial of the reported schedule cut. At the Southern Pacific, Charles McFaul, assistant passenger traffic manager, said: "I've heard nothing of it, but I'll say it doesn't sound probable to me. But I can't go further than to say that as far as we're concerned here, we've heard nothing of another cut in time. For the Union Pacific, General Agent, George R. Bierman said: "The matter has not been discussed here in Los Angeles. I'm positive that if there were anything to it, we'd have been advised. However, it's likely that plans for another cut in time between here and Chicago would be perfected in Chicago without our advanced knowledge." At the offices of W. K. Etter, General Manager for the Santa Fe here it was announced that we haven't heard anything of another cut in passenger running time East.

TROJAN SPECIAL TRAIN BREAKS ALL RECORDS The special train with the Troians on board over the Santa Fe broke all records when it made the time from Chicago to Los Angeles in 59 hours and 40 minutes. LARGE ATTENDANCE AT P. P. B A MEETINGS Last week Grand delegate A. Noel held several meeting of the P. P. B. A. in which he made one of the most complete reports that has ever been brought back to the men or this district. He had everything down in black and white and made a satisfactory explanation of all resolutions passed at the Convention. He has proved to the members of Local No. 1 that they did not vote in vain when they elected him by one of the biggest majorities that has even been piloted up by a P. P. B. A. Grand Delegate candidate. One of the most interesting resolutions passed was Receipt No. 1 of the coming year will show the correct date that the next three deductions will be made from pay check. We feel that this will allow members simple time to be ready to expect a small check. If attention is called to dates of his assessments or payments the fee of $7.00 will go into effect on the first payment of 1928. J L HILL BACK FROM GENERAL ZONE MEETING Mr. J. L. Hill has returned from a general zone meeting in San Francisco, but has nothing of interest to tell the men of what took place. The writer did his best to get a word or two, but you cannot get blood out of a turnup; so there is nothing to tell. RED CAPS TAKE ELK DEGREE Mr. C. A. Glover, one of our leading red caps of the S. P. station led a gang of his red cap friends up to the barnyard of the Elks and gave them a ride on the wild ole goat. Mr. Glover rode the animal himself in a most masterful manner. He says the boys are planning on attending the Grand Lodge in Chicago this summer and are getting ready now. McGRUDER AIDS IN CAPTURE OF CROOK Well boys! he has done it at last. Who would have thought that officer McGruder, who directs traffic at 4th and Alameda would ever capture a real bad criminal? All the boys who knew Mc. as an S. P. waiter will vouch for him capturing a plate of meat and eggs but a crooked; Never! He spotted a much wanted crook as he drove by his post in a lizzie and saw it that he was landed behind the bard. Some aleth? PILLOW SLIPS Negroes lynched and burned in Kentucky, says the newspapers. What wonderful progress civilization is making. Mr. Jesse Binga, Chicago banker, gives banquet to P. P. B. A.. It seems as if everyone is fond of the hen that lays the golden eggs. Mr. A. E. Sathern has been acting Supt. at Salt Lake City for the last two weeks. J. A. Montgomery's line has gone up up for bid temporarily. What's all this I hear about Jack Prayer? Is it possible? The more one sees and the more one hears, makes him think and think of the 'I' ole Eagle. No wonder Uncle Sam put him on the dollar. Maybe some day we will pay more attention to the words on the dollar, IN GOD WE TRUST. Looks as if that's the only one we can put any trust in these days. It has been said that the Eagle files to the highest planate to roost, which is a good plan and a wonderful motto for men to follow. Now, since the new Ford is out, they are sighing that new song called—"What Does it Matter?" C. Smith, No. 1, was a visitor on the West Side, last week.

Their only hope is that the men, after signaling this petition, will lose heart, and give up the light. However, nothing is further from the minds of the men because they know the Company must be at the end of their rope, when it has to resort to such tactics. The Brotherhood is taking care of the matter in the most approved legal manner, and are preparing in call the Company's bluff. paring to call the company's butt. Certain recent developments tend to prove that the Pullman officials have been stopped from spending money for propaganda purposes against the Brotherhood. It appears that one in power's checking up of these officials, the ruthless, expensive, slave killing campuses they have waged. These officials are now desperately trying to save their faces and are using their control over the jobs of the man as a club with which to whip them into submission. Many and powerful forces are rallying to the Pullman Porters' support. The great Chicago Defender has come out flatly and without reservations, and declared that they are in the fight to help the Porters whn. The end is in sight—the end of a long drawn out and hard battle on the part of the men for a living wage and a manly chance. The winning if this fight will mean another mile stone in the progress of American society towards civilization. GEO. S. GRANT Organizer, Los Angeles HOTEL ST.

Many people envy the beauty of others. They manifest surprise that others seem so singularly beautiful, meanwhile overlooking opportunities before them that should magnify their own beauty. For instance, have you ever thought how many diseases of the hair are due to improper attention to the scalp? For one reason or another the hair is neglected. Years later, if a disease fortunately does not develop thin hair is the result, hair that is brittle, unattractive and which has not attained its proper growth. Many young ladies and women have improved their appearances by availing themselves of our services. The hair represents a feature that often mars the beauty. We take pleasure in bringing before you some particular preparations of ours that have been used with wonderful results where others have failed.

CHURCH, located on W. 36th St. near Denker Ave. invites your patronage to a series of sermons now being delivered on. "The approach towards a practical application or Christianity to our modern day problems." These sermons are delivered by our new pastor, Rev. Ralph R. King A. B. B. D. Formerly of Wilberforce University, of Ohio. The key note of Rev. King's religious philosophy is, "Teach men to live here on earth, and get out of this life all the good it can give one." The Rev. feels that if men can be taught this lesson and will react favorable to its teachings dying, and what is to follow death, will take care of itself. —r.3.

If anyone wishes to send us any Christmas cards be sure that they are trimmed in lavender and old rose as we have turned very artistic. Mrs. Margie Nevels and daughter Miss LaVera White, and guests, Miss Gladice Greenaway and Messrs. Edward McColum and Herschel Coleman, motored through Southern California Sandy, December 4th. The party stopped at the Douglas Hotel in San Diego before going across, the border to Tia Juana. After a short stay, the party returned to Los Angeles and after dining returned to the home of Mrs. Nevels where whist was played. Mrs. Nevels was a young man a very severe beating. Mrs. Nevels made a charming hostess and everyone declared the trip a wonderful success. --- Writing after the manner of O. O. McIntyre who conducts that very pleasing column in the Examiner we would say: Walked down Central Avenue. Seems to us we see the same crowd every day. How can so many young men make loafing the greatest work in the world? Saw a very beautiful display of flowers in a flower shop. Minded to buy us a vase but bethought ourselves of this lunch we would have to sacrifice. Looked in at the drug store at Pico and Central. Saw Dr. Sam Bauman very busy waiting on a customer with his never failing courtesy. Saw a beautiful Marmon parked on 14th Street. Thought how well we would look driving up the Avenue on any fine evening in that buggy. Wonder why so many flappers use that expression, "that's cool." And why do men call each other "boona"? Plenty of fruit in the markets exposed to all the insects of Central Avenue and the dust of the streets. Believe there is an ordinance against them. Saw Mr. Sidney P. Dones looking fine as ever. Well, dusk is upon us so we'll call it a day. Why did a certain group of people who visited San Diego one day this week get slight attack of indigestion after eating waffles at the Douglas Hotel? Guess I shouldn't have mentioned that. Oh, what did we do that for. Mr. Frank Watkins of West 37th St. says he never felt so embarrassed as on the occasion of last Saturday evening (the Midnite Matinee at the Lincoln) when he came face to face with a certain little "yaller" who had said she could not go to that particular midnite show. He says he is sure he isn't one of the "four out of five." Today's bit of philosophy—"Marriages may be made in heaven but the separation usually occurs when the principals have come down to earth."

B team, gave birth to an eight pound baby girl, last Sunday. Billy says she could not raise her to be the star roofer for the N. N. football team, and Billy ought to know. Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Boyce. A scientist says that the next war will be with insects. Seems to me folk have been waring against insects for centuries. Why the change of heart? Our compliments to Miss Rosalie Lincoln on the occasion of her birthday, December 6th. May you have many more and remain forever sweet 16. La Golondrina Club had its regular meeting at the home of Miss Thelma Williams. The girls, were entertained by their various members of the club after the meeting had adjourned. The new member was Miss Alice Kenned, Delightful refreshments was served by the host. Well, it dropped out of the La Golondrina girls' sleeves. On November twenty-six at four forty-five the girls dropped at 1158 South Hobart Boulevard at the home of Miss Pearlita Johnson. It was a great surprise to her on her birthday. Beliecious refreshment, the biggest excitement was when the girls played "Lotto."—They will grow up some day.

"LOBO" BRYANT SHINES FOR MERRY MAKERS CARNEGIE STICKS OUT LIKE SORE THUMB FOR TEMPLE BOYS The "Wolf Pack" led by the Messrs. Williams and Bryant took the W. O. Club into camp Sunday, Nov. 27, on Syndor's Field. After getting off to a slow start, the "pack" started things going and rolled up 19 points before half time. The game was hacking in thrills, but was hard fought throughout, with the Merry Makers having a hard time getting by Carnegie. Carnegie Lives Up To Name "Iron Man" Carnegie proved to be just what his moniker claims him to be. This big old boy sure play-d a whale of a game at guard for the Wishshire Olympics. Many times he got through to spear the Merry Maker in their tracks and sometimes for losses. He is really some tooth player. Both teams played some football considering. Roger Willis looked good at times and the only back Merry Makers teams who could get away for short gains. The game was never in doubt, the Merry Makers holding the upper hand throughout the game. Bryant Boost Beverage Co. The "Mighty mite" go away for three touchdowns and fared ahead in the scoring. His total is now 6, followed closely by "Hobo" Ware with 5. Williams and Combs running and tackling were beautiful. The boys were lucky no one was injured. Billups at end also played a good defense game. The Wiltshire boys were handicapped by the absence of their stars, Norman, Hines, Eckles, Redd and Augustine. If these men had played, the game might have had a different ending. The Merry Makers look good and are still confident that they can take the N.-N. B's in their next meeting. La Republica takes on the N. N. B's Sunday, December 4, at Ross Snyer's playground. This promises to be a good game. The "League" is giving a dance at 15th & Main, December 9th. You can't afford to miss hearing the Lyric Trio, Thursday, December 15, New Hope Baptist Church.

A. Howard popular young business man at Columbus Hall on the evening of Monday Nov 28th. in the most talked about affair ever given in these parts. All of Los Angeles society folks were present as well as many who make no pretensions along the line of things purely social. Be that as it may all who attended pronounced it as grand and enjoyable to the highest degree. And words failed to express their gratitude to Mr. Howard for his general hospitality. In conversation with Mr. Howard our reporters learned that it just happened to be his birthday and that he was so appreciative of his many friends and the people who have been so kind to him during his business career that he could think of no other way to express his gratitude and then to think that nearly one thousand persons thought enough of his invitation to respond was gratifying indeed. One of the events of the evening was a return surprise on Mr. Howard when a committee of ladies headed by Mrs. Zorn Williams presented him with a huge birthday cake with 21 candies thereon. (Of course Mr. Howard did not tell anybody how many years to put thereon (so this feature brought out a great big kick for all). The presentation was made by Dr. Vada Sommerville. The hall was profusely decorated and Mr. Howard was the recipient of many floral offerings, bonquets came from friends in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and other points east. The music was superb by Rences orchestra. The affair was strictly formal and stands out as the greatest affair ever given by a single individual in these parts.

RAL PARLORS SON & CO PARLORS & CO.ctors PETER H. BURKE J. L. MILLE Asst. Manager New Orleans, La., Dec. 8.—(By The Associated Negro Press)—In an exclusive statement to a representative of the Associated Negro Press, Marcus Garvey, who is waiting here to be deported to Jamaica, scored Negro intellectuals and outlined his plans for the future. Garvey's complete statement was as follows: "By the mandate of the United States government, I am forced to leave the United States, even though it was never my intention to mage America my permanent residence as my work naturally bound me to my mother country, Africa, where I hope at sometime to live or be buried. However, things have worked a little differently for the time being, and not being desirous of creating an unpleasant commissions in America, I shall willingly and gladly depart as soon as I am able to properly arrange the affair of my association. The life of Negro improvement Association, and to see that proper steps be taken to protect the financial interests of the members of the association and the old stockholders of the Black Star Line." "In leaving America, I want it clearly understood that the great work of the Universal Negro improvement Association continues. Fortunately, it is not a national movement, but an international one, and as our scattered leaders are re-assembled, we shall present to the world a greater organization than we had before. "No one has lost anything in the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and the Black Star Line, because if it takes fifty years every man shall be paid back according to his desire in the association and movement which I represent. "It is surprising that the white people should acuse me of so many evil things when in fact all the losses that have been inflicted upon my organizations were skillfully engineered by them to bring about the result they desired. "They have profited most in stealing our ships and will really state why they imprisoned me simply because they knew that they were better able to deal with the unprepared representatives than with me. "As an instance of their fraud and chicnery, two months before I was imprisoned, I bought the S. S. Gen Goethals from the Panama Railroad Company, a subsidiary of the United States government, for a cost and outlay of $160,000. After we took title the white sharpers of Wall Street conived to urge my immediate imprisonment. Then, dialing with my representatives, whom they believed they could better handle, they got them to sign a scheming contract to remove cargo. "They placed aboard the ship about $1,000 worth of this cargo and then created such conditions around the ship affecting its insurance and other legal requirements for sailing as to make it impossible for the ship to sail." "Then, when the ship did not perform, they want to their confederates and had them libel the ship for non-performance. Before I could act, being a prisoner of the United States Government, and the facts kept from me, they sold the ship at a marshalls sale for $25,000 and bought it in themselves. "The same kind of scheme was played by the same group of white men in getting possession of Liberty Hall in New York, an investment of $135,000 at $25,145.6 West 135th Street, New York City, an investment of $135,000. The same scheme was also played by the same group of white men in depriving us of our printing and publishing plant, an investment of $25,000 at 54 West 136th Street, New York City. "The same group of white men, along with the narrow-minded politicians in Washington who have been jealous of my success with the organization and the Negro people, are the prime movers in the effort to railroad me out of the country from New Orleans, so that I may not return to New York, where I could institute proceedings in the name of the people to recover their stolen assets. And yet these are the same people who influenced the newspapers to call me the "Black Ponzi." It is surprising that all this has happened in the name of America, because I am a prisoner of the government. But I suppose I have to adopt the homely philosophy that "All's well that ends well." "I go when the time comes with no bifiness, I love and dearly respect the Negro masses of America. I have done everything for them to the extent of giving up my name for a number, 19359, in my efforts to help in the solution of a problem. I am still willing to go to a crucifixion if necessary for the same purpose. I shall ever think of the Negro people in America and shall, in conjunction with the world work for their betterment, the formation or a government in Africa, the land of our fathers. "Please say, however, to everybody that I hold the so-called group of intellectuals, otherwise called the intellegence, in the greatest contempt. I mean to include in that group such men as W. E. B. DuBois, William Pickens, A. Philip Randolph, Chandler Owens, George Schuyler, and the follows of their like. I mean to include in this also some of your leading newspapermen and some of your leading politicians. I hold them in contempt not because of their education, but because of their prostitution of it. "I shall be sorry for the American Negro masses if they continue to accept leadership from this group. I hope to see a new and virulent leadership spring up from among the people, one that cannot be bought, that will not be subservient, that will not accept its ideas and instructions from other sources than from itself, for the Negro to go ahead in America, he Making a strenuous effort to keep up with the march of progress in industrial as well as the automobile world, J. M. McAfee, of 1128 Sunset Street has very recently purchased two brand new Graham Trucks for his ever increasing work. Without a doubt Mac has the individual distinction of being able to more expeditiously handle the highest grade of furniture without the slightest degree of demarkation than any other transfer man in the Crown City irrespective of color. With the able assistance of his two sons whom he has brought up in the business from its incipency he is in a position with his equipment he is able to specialize in the hauling of the most expensive furniture. Mr. McAfee also owns several homes in the north end of town and is very popular in fraternal circles. Rev. W. D. Carter, moderator of the western Baptist Association, left in the early part of last week on a business trip to New York dealing with the Executive Board of the National Baptist Convention, where he expects to remain for at least two weeks. Alvin Brownlee and James Stocks, "Slick" set sail last Thursday night for Honolulu where they will appear in a series of games with the Hawaiian team. These youths are the background of the Pasadena High and have in every instance shown that they were rightly classed as lettermen. The record that Slick has made is hardly conceivable and Brownlee is certainly is certainly winding his way upward in no uncreatain way. They are a credit to the race and deserve our hearty support. Ernest Gordon, one of Topeka's old-timers paid a pleasant visit to Hev. and Mrs. J. M. Brown on last Monday. Ernest is here on strictly a pleasure trip and will leave Thursday for his home town after having visited many of his old friends. Rev. J. M. Young, Dean of the West Coast Theological Seminary was the speaker at the Sunday morning services at Friendship, while the Rev. Dr. Crenshaw, editor of the National Baptist Voice was the evening speaker both of whom addressed large congregations. Dr. Young will officiate during the absence of the pastor. The big social event of the season was the wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Roberts, celebrating their 29 years of marital relationship under the auspices Laddies Ald Society of Scott Chapel A. M. E. Church, at the First A. M. E. Church on last Wednesday, before a crowded house. The program before a ceremonial numbers after which was the mock wedding ceremony. After the ceremony a silver offering was taken for the benefit of the church as they contemplate building in the near future. The pastor, Rev. B. J. Jordan is very anxious that the work would get an early start consequently is working hard to that end. Mrs. Sadie Wright, who was ap pointed at the last General Conference as Director of Religious Education in the local church has already begun her work and the fruits of her labor has already been felt by those who are lending her support. Mrs. Wright is very efficient and there is no reason why she should not succeed. In appreciation for the return of the pastor for the Fifth consecutive year, the members of the A M. E. Church tendered him a brilliant reception last Tuesday night. The program consisted of several short addresses interspired with musical selections instrumental and musical and responses by the pastor and family which proved to be a very brilliant affair. Rev. Brown certainly has done a wonderful work since his coming to Pasadena and has more than revolutionized things in and around the church proper and his probable burdens have been the source of much inspiration in that he has overcome them all. He is to be complimented and with the vision of the great work yet to be accomplished he has gone ahead with nothing short of success as his goal. His faithful wife has stood right by his side through his entire pastorate and much of his success has come through her consistance. Refreshments were served after the program and all went away happy.

The pernicious influence and impoverishing results caused by the presence of the Chinese lottery cannot for one moment be tolerated and no matter what community the orientals infest it is a nefarious, unscrupulous situation which exists. It is for this reason laws have been enacted making it unlawful to conduct the same and in so doing give protection to society in general. This paper has always stood fair and square for law and order and has at a considerable sacrifice been the arch enemy of the Chinese lottery sharks. We can well remember some years ago in our campaign against Chinese lottery, in certain sections of the city our subscriptions fell off fully fifty per cent. At that particular time we fought the fight single handed and alone, we did not fight by throwing a rock and hiding our hand, neither did we fight by inuendo. We spoke right out on our front page and in our editorial columns. Not at the behest of some persons will ulterior motives or to even up some cancerous sore. We fought them upon the ground of law, order and common decency. Therefore in this situation we go forth even again and shall co-operate fully with our police officials to drive them not off Central Avenue, but of all sections of our fair city. We are among those who believe in our section and shall not malign it, as the sole beneficiary of all that is evil and wrong. Then again we become very suspicious when those who have ever held their peace when they are needed the most suddenly to appear on the scene all indignant and "het up" to blacken the very spot in which we live. We finally say to them if you have first hand knowledge of unlawful conditions impart your information to the proper persons and do your duty as a citizen to keep your town clean, pure and therefore uphold the law.

Los Angeles does not want any kn how big their money bags may be. There are some merchants in Los Angeles who make it a practice to deride the city and to howl about hard times. In most instances those merchants were once in moderate financial circumstances. It seems to us that they should at least be grateful to the city that has not only provided them with a livelihood but has also made them financially independent, so far as their ever being in want is concerned. If those merchants are unable to sense the feeling of gratefulness for what Los Angeles has done for them, they should realize that it is unbecoming for them to malign the town whenever they get an opportunity, or, when opportunities don't present themselves fast enough, to go out of their way to make them. But instead of stowing away their hammers, which would rebound to their own benefit as well as that of the city, they strut around in high feather, banging, banging, banging. The result has been that the public—the same public that has helped to increase the merchants' bank accounts—is pretty well weary of hearing the tat-atat-tat of the hammers. The wise business man never knocks, regardless of how bad business may be. He realizes that if he knocks, the hammer will rebound and strike him. Instead of crying about hard times, the only result of which is to make the public tighten its purse strings, he exhales optimism with every breath, so to speak, because he is aware that an optimistic public is a good buying public. We have faith in Los Angeles. Faith is what makes any town grow, and we are pleased to say that residents generally have faith in Los Angeles. If the knocking merchants don't entertain the same faith, then they should either put up their hammers or get-out of town. Los Angeles does not want any knockers, regardless of how big their money bags may be.

COMMENTS BY: W. J. WHEATON end. But whi is going to sa Equity League if that, Advan Lib--there, "Kacial Adv After interviewing large numbers of distributors as to the economic effects of advertising, a committee of the national distribution conference reports: "Broadly speaking, it would seem that where the advertising creates an increased demand for products of a certain class, a wider distribution of such products—in other words, makes new business, bringing about lessened distribution costs and lessened production costs owing to increased demand—there can be no doubt as to the value of such advertising, not merely to the concerns that pay for it but also to the public that consumes the goods." "Bills and paste" have given way to newspapers and magazines and those "who advertise" are not only wise altruistic and philanthropic, for by helping themselves they are helping others.

The unique program was rendered with the utmost of care and selection. The "writer" can safely vouche for the successfulness of the event, as he too, was among the many guests present.

MANAGER. el of Conner-Johnson Undertaking Parlors, Monday, November 28th. He leaves to mourn his loss: parents, 1 sister and 3 brothers. "Weep not dear ones, you will see him more glorious than ever before." Nathan Bard and Benjamin Fleming were hanged in Madisonville, Ky. It is alleged that they attacked a young girl. Before the noose was adjusted they both with firm voices protested their innocence. Companies or State Guards patrolled the streets and press on yard keeping order among the 10,000 curious people gathered to see two fortunate souls launched into eternity. It is to be hoped that this execution will not prove another case analogous to that of Dr. Mays, and the real culprits confess. According to the precedent set in the May case, the conscience stricken confessor will only be allowed to go free. In another part of Kentucky, Leonard Woods and two women were accused of the killing of a white man named Deaton. A mob broke into the jail, by overpowering the jailer (7) and the fate of Woods is obvious. Kentucky seems to be struggling with a double complex. One part of the State is resolved to keep a semblance of civilized respectability, even though at the bayonette point, and keep a curious, milling, blood-thirsty horde under constraint. But where there is no fear of some unsophisticated guardian actually shooting—through excitement—the courage of blood lust is supreme. President Coolidge gave Marcus Garvey, prisoner in the Federal Penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga., cause for thankfulness. Instead of partaking of his turkey behind the gray walls of the prison, clad in stripes, he with a few of his faithful cohorts enjoyed their feast, which was saddened by one cloud only—DEPORTATION: Marcus is compelled to leave. Uncle Sam's domain. Whether or not it will mean the passing of a most picturesque character from the scene, remains to be witnessed. Rumor says that Marcus was wily enough to cache most of his gains—ill-got or otherwise—in the banks of foreign countries. Maybe; maybe not. It is to be hoped, though, that he has had time to see the fallacy of some of the ophemeral dreams. California presidential primaries are held in May. Before this goes to print it will be known whether or not the city of San Francisco has been successful in bringing the National Convention or the Republican party to that city. It is generally known that the geographical location has considerable to do with the political aspirants who are in quest of the presidential goal. Will the San Francisco site favor Hoover? Is California's agricultural interest in the farm bloom great enough to instruct a delegation propositions to Senator Curtis? The will of the aspirants has much to do with the selection of the Convention City, considerable knowledge of their individual strength may be gained by paying attention to the location. Contrary to all rumors, the selection by the Council elect for a Mayor for Sacramento, was accomplished without any friction. Attorney Martin Welsh, who had been urged to accept the post, believes that he can accomplish more as a floor member in the safe guarding of pledges made the electorate, and voted for the elected of Hon. Harry S. Maddox, Mr. Maddox is an insurance man, and is well known for his executive ability Among the pledges made by the incoming Council was a tax reduction and a change in the personnel of the city manager. State politics is quiet, nothing of note; unless it be the appointment by the Governor of the State Park Commission. Like all past appointments, the Governor has sought for the best. Efficiency is the sesame to political preferment under this administration. With Lieutenant Governor, Buron Flitts choosing not to be a candidate, and ex-Governor Friend Richardson deciding not to run; the opponents or Senator Hiram Johnson have been trying to induce Harry Culver, the founder of Culver City, to enter the list and bring a few of his millions with him. As Los Angeles and the State south are unanimous in the Boulder Canyon project, one is at a loss to see what the Battle Cry of Culver would be. Listening to a discussion on "True Service," in which the two controversialists were diametrically opposed, gave food for thought. One of them claimed that with one or two exceptions, and he named them, that all of our "Leaders" were out for pecuniary gain, or the ambition for publicity. "Take away any partial support, financially, from your preacher or bishop." he said, "and see how long they will fill those positions." Do you imagine that for a moment, and he quoted the names of several in the spotlight, that they would be so solicitous for the advancement of the Race if she 'shekles' cease to pour in? Our fraternities are the same. The struggles made to obtain and retain office would be less strenuous were the money stipends less alluring. That is what makes our "Army of Generals." We cannot accomplish anything because, being all leaders, we maneuver in different directions." True Service is the child of personal sacrifice. In the desire for betterment it loses consciousness of self. True service seeks not pecuniary gain or public laudation, but regardless of bill, ploons on to the end. Then what is "True Service?" He or she lives not for self, but for others, develops there that something within which speaks out for true service—a service that sees ahead no future reward, has no thought of recompense. We would not have so many overlapping societies for racial advancement, were the salary attached to mose of the offices curtailed. The scattered finance could be concentrated to some Friday, December 9, 1927 Roosvelt Mason Beatty, who has been connected with Pleasant's Barber Shop, located at 12th and Central, for five years, has taken charge of the Palace Barber Shop opposite the Lincoln Theatre. Mr. Beatty has proven himself quite efficient in his line or work and although a young man, he has gained not only a large following of customers, but a host of friends, owing to his humble, unassuming manner. As president of his social club work, in his church and in his home, he has proven himself loyal. He is expecting his old customers and new ones to follow him to his new location. This being his motto: Steady like the star that shines afar, without haste, without rest, he wheels with steady swing around the task that rules the day to do his best."

A throng of church goers got excited at what they thought was an escaped lunatic and called the "long wagon." To educate the populace to Borde spectacular training system Morrie Cohen had him repeat the training stunt Wednesday morning. He is entering the ring as we go to press to battle Hony Eccalante. Stocks made several long runs to place the ball in a scoring position. His long passes were another feature of the game from all reports. This makes Slicker's last year at the Pasadena Junior College and without a doubt will enter some college to further his education and get a chance to play some big time football. Stecks should not under any condition consider going to U. S. C. if he intends to play football, because it has been proven that they do not want our boys on the team. I offer an example in a student of U. S. C. by the name of Rufus Norman. Norman was out for the team but received no recognition and we can look back and recall the raw deal Brice Taylor got at the first of the season in '26. As we go to press Willie Tucker, known to the boxing fans as Young Sam Langford crawls through the ropes at San Bernardino to Battle Billy Red Atkeson. Sam K. O'ed, Atkeson in their first bout and Red is out for revenge, and he says that he will take Langford this trip. Young Sam is the favorite because of his wonderful left that keeps his opponent on his heels and set for a K. O. punch.

There wasn't the slightest reason under the sun for this young lady becoming excited. She wasn't mentioned; and only pleasant things were said of the others; and that, in this column, peculiarly adopted for Collegiate people. It is the purpose of this column to mention the many happenings and occasions of interest among Collegians so as to keep those who are already in college interested; and the youngsters in the prep schools.

Of course we meet him quite often along with, other, wouthwhile dignitaries of the day but somehow he always leaves an indelible impression. You know there are lots of parasites amongst us. Particularly among the professional and business folks. That type of individual who can only see perfection in himself or his business and nothing in the other fellow or his enterprise. That type of fellow that cries out loud because you don't visit and spend your money or some portion or it with him and yet who belltails race business to the extent that he would even purchase a six pocket handkerchief from you conducting a business next door as long as street cars and automobiles could convey you to a Mr. George's store, 11 miles away. That type of person who make their living off the race and refuse to spend their money with the race. They are parasites. But we wish to here state that if there is an individual free from those accusations it is the above named person. Of course there are others, but Rev.

Supreme Court Raps Rail Crossing Racer The most dangerous sport in America—racing the train to a grade crossing—has received a severe blow from the United States Supreme Court in a recent decision, extracts from which have been received by the legal department of the National Automobile Club. The court held that the motorist, not the railroad, is responsible for his safety when he is crossing a railroad track at a level crossing. "It seems to us that if he relies upon hearing the train, or upon any signal, and takes no further precaution, he does so at his own risk." "When a man goes upon a railroad track he knows that he goes to a place where he will be killed if a train comes upon him before he is clear of the track." says the majority opinion in part. "He knows that he must stop for the train: not the train for him. In legal circles the decision is regarded as one of the most important the highest court in the land has handled down in recent years," said Arnold Hedgkinson, general manager of the N. A. C., yesterday. It has been supposed by many legal luminaries and many of the lower courts in most of the States of the Union that it was the duty of the railroad to protect persons entering upon and crossing the right-of-way owned by the railroad companies. "One of the reactions, as I view them, is that this case will undoubtedly be regarded as a very powerful argument for the elimination of all level crossings throughout the land." Ridge Route Journey Ideal At This Time Few motoring trips are more delightful than the one over the famous scenic Ridge Route and through the fertile San Joaquin Valley during hard west season. Autumn has colored the foliage of the valleys and mountains with its various hues of gold, red and brown and there are innumerable interesting things to be viewed along the way. The trip is made doubly interesting when it is remembered that this is the thoroughfare followed by the famous Butterfield Overland Mail Stage Line. Shortly beyond the highway begins a gradual climb up the Castaic mountains, from one ridge to another until the summit is reached. It is an ever-winding path with an unending succession of beautiful panoramas in which peaks and crags of numerous ranges stand out clearly. A short distance beyond Lebec, rotthef of the highway, is the site of old Fort TeJon which was for ten years an important army post and a relay station of the Butterfield Mail route. Only a few remnants remain of the old adobe walls and a well preserved building which was the former barracks. Leaving the mountains over the "Grapevine" grade, the route then lies over a perfectly straight stretch into Bakersfield. This city is the county seat of Kern County and is noted for its handsome office buildings and residences, its wide, well shaded streets and a great oil production. In the Fresno district, one views with interest the large raisin vineyards for this city is the home of "Sun-Maid" raisins. Leaving this vicinity, the route passes through Madera where are located large lumber mills, the logs being brought down from the mountains in fume, 76 miles long, thence to Merced, the gateway of the new all-year, highway into Yosemite. This city is surrounded by a flourishing region of orchards, vineyards and alfalfa fields. From Merced, the highway passes through Turlock, the center of an extensive fruit, grape and water melon district, thence through the attractive city of Modesto to Manteca, a junction where the road branches off for Stockton and Sacramento; then through Tracy and Livermore to Oakland where the ferry carries one across the bay to San Francisco, thus completing a journey of unusual interest. Rainy Season Rules Given To Motorists The winter months, which are also the rainy months throughout California, form the dangerous period of the year from a motoring standpoint, and every effort should then be made to instill the doctrine of "safety first" in the minds of motorists. In its announcement the Club points out that one of the greatest sources of accidents and their resultant deaths and serious injuries is the wet paved street and highway. All members of the club as well as all other motorists throughout the State are urged to be especially careful during the coming wet season. In its effort to bring about greater driving care, the club has compiled a number of driving rules, which if followed, it is believed will aid greatly in reducing the excessive number of automobile accidents in California. These rules are: 1. Always have the car under such good control that it can be stopped almost instantly. This means that speed must be reduced approximately one half in wet weather. 2. In the cities, the steepest hills, and streets with car tracks should be avoided. In the country, chains should be carried and used if the tire treads have worn smooth. Concrete pavement is very slippery when wet. 3. Wet paving makes the danger of rear-end collisions great, especially in city traffic and on crowded highways. Do not travel too close to the car in front. He may be able to stop quicker than you. 4. On rainy nights, visibility is greatly reduced, especially if the rain is very heavy. The remedy here is to open the windshield and reduce the speed. It is well known that moving cars can be seen only a short distance ahead. Even the powerful lights of an oncoming car are often dimmed by the heavy rain. 5. Take no chances under any circumstances. Be careful in driving around sharp curves. There may be a car ahead and you may not be able to stop in time to avoid a collision. 6. Have your brakes tested regularly. it has been demonstrated that 90 per cent of automobiles in service have defective or poorly adjusted brakes. 7. Make a careful inspection of your tires to see that they are not too worn to hold the road when the paving is slippery with rain. Also be very sure that the spare is in place and in good shape. 8. Be sure that your ignition is protected from moisture. By following these few simple rules it is believed by the club officials that many accidents can be avoided and that the number of deaths and injuries can be decreased. THE COMMENTATOR ELKS SMOKER A JOLLY AFFAIR Last Tuesday, November 29th, the boys with the split hoofs and the long horns got together—no not the devil,—I mean the Elks—at the Masonic Temple, 50th and Central. The smoker was largely attended by the members of the local lodge, visiting brothers, and their friends. The entertainment was clean and delightfully received. The thought entertained by many in the past, that men could not be entertained unless furnished with the most ribald kind and fitted for the most dissolute characters has been disproved by this Order. This entertainment obtained for the smoker was of the most pleasing sort; by high class artists. Sally Harper, Billie Ross, singing those plaintive sentiments, such as "Sandown," "Broken Hearted" and "Sally" really knocked them dead. Ross did a 'Bert Williams' in his life and twenty years. Former Exalted Ruler, Mims, from Pasadena, told some of the best lies heard hereabouts and sang them better. Sunburnt Jim, an entertainer of note, came in late, loud-talked some of the prominent members and strutted his stuff three different ways. He played it on his Uke, be sang it, and really danced it. The Elks Band, led by Littleton McDuff, played like they were after Curtist Mosby's crown. They can go. Frank White acted as Master of Ceremonies and filled the position with much dignity and grace.

THE ADELPHIC CLUB THE COMMENTATOR One of the most brilliant and colorful affairs that Los Angeles' Junior Society can boast of, was the celebration of the Adelphic club's "Hi Jinx" at the Echo Park club house. This affair, "Hi Jinx", is an annual event, heralding the closing of the old, and opening of the new calendar of their social year. It is usually of the nature of a Mardi Gras Celebration and the masque and costume motif was in effect. There were costumes worn of richness and brilliancy, not heretofore seen or worn by many of our people in this part of the country.

This large number of guests swirling about in this very beautifully appointed hall, created a scene of a brilliancy that seemed almost fantastic. The grand march led by Mr. Raymond Smith, the club president, seemed to be a holiday procession with all of the pageentry of the historical past. The Russian costumes worn by Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Connor, Miss Raverna Woods and Miss Esther Beck, and the little Red Riding Hool costume worn by Miss Cornelia Edwards, with many others, were adjudged quite stunning. Favors were on hand in abundance, and were distributed among the guests, they employing them to add merriment to the happy occasion. In addition 500 balloons were released from their anchorage in the loft of the hall. Much enthusiasm was evinced by the guests in capturing them. Then the run began. Many of the guests were desirous of saving them for souvenirs, others less fortunate in capturing any were determined that the balloons should be burst. The balloons were burst. However, other favors were hand for souvenirs. The refreshments were delicious and plentiful, in fact, everything was jam up. The music supplied through Johnnie Mitchell was red hot.

LINCOLN—"EASY STREET" Doc Strain's crazy dance with the chorus, novel and delightful. That make-up of the chorus just won't quit. The opening presentation, with the clever Penery and lightning effect, depicting lightning and rain; tock the cakes. "Easy Street" really gave Doc and Bilo a echange to strut. In fact, the whole cast strutted here. Johanne Lee, again did his sobbing sympathetic roles to A-1. Baby Lee jam, up in pantomime role or mistreated wife; Albertine Pickens in the role of (how can it be) a woman of the street, and Claude Collins, diverting again from the heavy villain type to that of devoted friend that saves his friend from self injury. Bilo with all of that money, typifies the mental attitude of some people right in our midst. Want to purchase the Ursus ear, and all that's in it; you know the treasure, and all money will purchase and do anything—and just a little of it. Anyway, in his appreciable natural way he appears better than ever. Doc Strain's presentations this week were filled with mischief clever gags; but again he falls down on the job as Master of Ceremonies. We need one. Give him to us, if only for the Mid-Nite ramble. Sara Martin in her eagerness to please, tried to pull a fast one on us, by putting in her songs some of that lurid junk that appeals to the buffoon and our lower sense of taste. Cut this stuff. I would suggest the "Transportation Blues," a really clever number. An old piece, it's true, but the way it's jazzed up, and with her voice, it could be put over easy. It's really keen and quite novel. Baby Mack continues to charm her audience. Where did Albertine Pickens get that number she sang—if that wasn't red-bot stuff of uptown calibre, I don't know what that is. Small and Mays, of the Orpheum Circuit, loaned especially to the Lincoln for the Ramble, very near tore down the house. These boys just won't behave. Talk about showmanship, if we didn't before, we sure know what it is now. These boys sang, danced and played the Uke and Guitar till times got better. Next week, Mid-Night show, December 9th, we have Ivy Anderson; on boy, what a treat! If there is anyone in this Western country as good or better than Caroline Snowden, my vote goes to this very versatile brown girl, Ivy Anderson.
