THE R. COMPANY H AGAINST THE HOSPITAL FOR AMOUNTING TO HUNDRED DOLL Near the first of November, 1921, a get-together meeting of the newly elected Trustees of the Fort Dearborn Hospital was held at that hospital and the evening was spent in talking over plans for its future usefulness and the great work it could accomplish for suffering humanity. At the close of the meeting everybody present and especially the newly elected Trustees felt highly honored that they had been placed in a position to do some real work for sweet charity and everything in connection with it looked to be real rosy for its future success and greatness. On Tuesday evening, November 22, 1921 a special meeting of the Trustees was held at 3902 South State street, for the purpose of electing officers who would serve up until the fourth Thursday in January, 1922, and for the further purpose of working out a new constitution and by-laws which were adopted at that same meeting and the following gentlemen were elected to serve as Trustees until the fourth Thursday in January, 1922: Trustees of the Greater Fort Dear- born Hospital Association Hon. Thomas Carey, 4427 Grand Blvd; Mr. Julius F. Taylor, 6206 S. Elizabeth St.; Mr. Alfred Flower, 108 S. La Salle St.; Mr. A. L. Williams, 184 W. Washington St.; Hon. Henry Stuckart, 2511 Archer Ave.; Hon. Emmett Whealan, County Bldg.; Hon. L. B. Anderson, 184 W. Washington St.; Hon. George B. Holmes, 441 S. 102d Pl.; Rev. J. W. Robinson, 213 E. 50th St.; Hon.

D., 3036 Indiana Ave.; J. W. Burrell, M. D., 3701 Indiana Ave. Hon. Wm. McDonald, Fort Worth, Texas. Officers Judge Geo. B. Holmes, President; Hon. Emmett Whealan, Vice President; Fred C. Cade, M. D., Secretary. Executive Committee—Mr. Alfred Clover, Mr. A. L. Williams, Mr. Julius T. Taylor. Advisory Committee—Hon. Thos. Carey, Hon. Henry Stuckart, Hon. Jas. W. Breen, Hon. L. B. Anderson, Mr. Alfred L. Clover. It must be remembered that Hon. George B. Holmes, Hon. Emmett Whealan, Hon. Thomas Carey, Hon. James W. Breen, Hon. Henry Stuckart, Mr. T. Frank O'Connell, were induced to serve as Trustees by Julius F. Taylor for they have been among our warmest friends in this city for many years and neither one of them knew one thing about the Fort Dearborn Hospital until the writer got them interested in it. When the new executive committee assumed entire charge of the affairs of the Fort Dearborn Hospital, well on to ten thousand dollars in old running debts was at that time hanging over its head. Some of the bills had been running for almost two years; some of the amounts were as low as one dollar and fifty cents; some of the bills ran up to almost one thousand dollars for meat, groceries and other supplies, used for the hospital and seemingly no effort was put forth on the part of its head officials to pay any part of the ten thousand dollars of the running indebtedness. Mr. Alfred Clover, general manager of the Public Life Insurance Company, as chairman of the executive committee was unable to devote much of his time to the affairs of the Fort Dearborn Hospital and all of its troubles fell upon the shoulders of Mr. A. L. Williams and the writer to grapple with and to say the least everything in connection with it was in bad condition. There was only about eight patients in the hospital at that time and sixteen nurses and ten or twelve employees to eat off the income of the eight or ten patients and by putting our heads together the help was reduced and the running expenses which were more than one thousand dollars per month were cut down fifty per cent. Several days after the executive committee assumed control of the business affairs of the Fort Dearborn Hospital, it was forced to order more than one hundred dollars worth of new surgical instruments as there were no instruments on hand to perform operations with. It had run down to such an extent that new bedding had to be bought in order to provide for any new patients above eight or ten and by inducing many of the doctors to send their patients to the Fort Dearborn Hospital on the 15th of February it had 34 patients with many reservations for the near future. At the time that the executive committee was placed in charge of the affairs of the hospital there was not one thermometer in the building but at the present time they can be observed hanging on the walls in all the halls and in some of the rooms throughout the hospital. Every Saturday afternoon for the past three months, we would arrive at the hospital and remain until nine or ten o'clock in the evening and in company with Mr. Williams we would tramp all over the hospital endeavoring to get things straightened out, urging the chief junior to put new coats in the windows in the place of M.

Judge Foell Has Selected Attorney A. L. Williams as Friendly Receiver for the Fort Dearborn Hospital. the broken ones and further urging him and the other help and the nurses not to let the water run over in the wash stands, so that it could wend its way on down through the plastering and flood the main floor of the building and so on. Ever since the executive committee had charge of the affairs of the hospital it managed to pay all current or running bills every 30 days, thereby re-establishing a commercial credit for the hospital and we have every reason to believe that Mr. Williams as receiver for it will adhere to the same sound business policy. SENATORS LODGE, CALDER MOSES, SUTHERLAND AND WATSON WILL SUPORT DYER ANTI-LYNCH BILL Leading Republican Senators have promised their support of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, which has already been passed by the House of Representatives, according to announcement made by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York. Among those whose support is pledged are Senators William M. Calder of New York, Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, George H. Moses of New Hampshire, Howard Sutherland of West Virginia, James E. Watson of Indiana. In a letter to the Advancement Association, Senator Lodge writes: "I have always been in favor of doing everything possible to put an end to the lawless and hideous business of lynching and expect, of course, to support the anti-lynching bill when it comes before the Senate." Senator Watson writes: HON. CHARLES M. FOELL Able and Honorable Judges of the S y Who Has Many Thousand War Greatly Delighted to See Him Ent icago in 1923. Judge Foell Has S ns as Friendly Receiver for the For "I wish to say that, as Chairman of the Committee on Resolutions, I helped secure the incorporation of the Anti-Lynching' plank in the Republi can National platform. I am in favor of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill which has already passed the House of Rep resentatives and will gladly support it in the Senate." Senator Calder writes: "I shall be glad to vote for the Anti-Lynching Bill . . . Senator Moses says: "My purpose has been to vote for the Dyer Bill whenever it comes to the Senate," and Senator Sutherland writes: "I expect to support this measure as I am sure all law-abiding citizens want to abolish lynching crimes in this country." Senator Frank B. Willis of Ohio, promises the Dyer Bill his "most friendly and earnest attention." The Advancement Association has called a mass meeting in the Town Hall, New York, on the night of March 1, at which the Senate is to be memorialized on the subject of the Dyer Bill. The Hon. George W. Wickersham, former attorney general of the United States, and Representative Leonidas C. Dyer of Missouri, who introduced the Bill in Congress are to be the chief speakers. Let the Hon.

JURY INDICTS 4 AS BLACK STAR DOES NOSE DIVE New York.—Charged with using the mails to defraud investors in the Black Star line, capitalized at $10,000,-000, Marcus Garvey, colored president has been indicted by the federal grand jury. Thre other officers and directors of the line were indicted with Garvey. Garvey and the other defendants are alleged to have falsely represented to investors that the company intended to purchase one or more steamships and an excursion boat and to operate them at a profit. The indictment also charges that the defendants represented that the Black Star line expected by means of a dollar drive to obtain an immense vessel for carrying to Africa workmen and materials for the building up of the "Great Republic of Liberia" for the Colored race. THE SECOND ANNUAL RECEPTION AND DANCE FOR THE MEMBERS AND FAMILIES OF THE APPOMATTOX CLUB, WAS A VERY PLEASANT AFFAIR Tuesday evening a pleasant dance and reception was held at the Unity Club, 3140 Indiana avenue, by the members of the Appomattox Club, their families and friends. The affair was very nice in every respect; the dance music by the up-to-date orchestra, was lively and real jazz, from beginning to end. The party was strictly formal, and with one exception all the gentlemen appeared in full dress evening suits, and the ladies were all costumed in the height of fashion. The affair ended with a Martha Washington carnival in celebration of the birthday of George Washington. HON. SAMUEL A. ETTELSON, CORPORATION COUNSEL OF CHICAGO, DELIVERED A MASTERFUL ORATION ON "GEORGE WASHINGTON," "THE FATHER OF HIS COUNTRY," AT THE METROPOLITAN SUNDAY EVENING CLUB, SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 19. HE WAS INTRODUCED TO THE AUDIENCE BY HON. A. H. ROBERTS, MEMBER OF THE LEGISLATURE FROM THE THIRD SENATORIAL DISTRICT FROM ILLINOIS. ELOQUENT REMARKS BY REV. W. D. COOK WHO IS ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR AND ABLE PREACHERS IN CHICAGO. Last Sunday evening, Hon. Samuel A. Ettelson, Corporation Counsel of Chicago, and for many years member of the State Senate from the Third Senatorial District of Illinois, who has always in the upper house of the State legislature of this state, bitterly fought and contended against all legislation which was intended to strike at the civil and political freedom of the Colored people, residing in the grand old commonwealth of Illinois, was the honored speaker at the Metropolitan Community Center Church, Wendell Phillips High School, Rev. W. D. Cook, pastor. His wonderful oration was extremely classical and highly interesting as well as instructive. Senator Ettelson paid a warm or glowing tribute to the worth and memory of George Washington, and the great things which he wrought or brought forth to permanently establish this Republic, which Senator Ettelson declared, is the greatest nation on earth; that it is the home of the Jew, the Gentile, and all the races of mankind on earth. He eloquently exclaimed towards the end of his wonderful oration, that George Washington, who was first in war, first in peace and first in the hearts of his countrymen, James Madison, father of the Constitution; Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independence and the immortal Abraham Lincoln, who liberated more than four million slaves, with one stroke of his pen, were the greatest of all of the great Americas. That their labors, achievements in behalf of humanity and this Republic will continue to shine forth undimmed throughout the coming ages. In concluding, Senator Ettelson stated that Mayor William Hale Thompson was a firm believer in the principles of government as laid down and expounded by the above mentioned illustrious statesmen.

THE BOOKER T. WASHINGTON MONUMENT TO BE UN- VEILED APRIL 5, 1922; PROMI- NENT SPEAKERS ON PRO- GRAM Tuskegee Institute, Alabama.—February.—Chief Justice William H Taft, in his address on Founder's Day at Tuskegee Institute two years ago, declared that Founder's Day at Tuskegee Institute should be as significant to the Negro as George Washington's birthday is to the American public in general. The host of Negroes and white friends who gather at the Institute each year upon this occasion to pay tribute to the memory of Dr. Booker T. Washington, attests the esteem in which this event is held, not only by Negroes, but the public at large. There is a special interest in the observance this year on account of the Unveiling of the Booker T. Washington Monument which will be held in connection with the Founder's Day Exercises on April 5th. Prominent Speakers on Program Each year since the death of Dr. Booker T. Washington a prominent American has delivered the Founder's Day Address. The array of speakers on the program this year is composed of some of the most eloquent orators and leaders of thought in America. The Founder's Day Address will be delivered by Dr. Wallace Buttrick, Chairman of the General Education Board; Honorable Josephus Daniels, ex-Secretary of the Navy, will represent the South; Dr. George C. Hall, one of the leading citizens of Chicago will represent the Negro, and Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary-Treasurer, Howard University, who was for eighteen years Secretary to Dr. Washington, will formally present the monument to the Trustees of the Institute. M.

Washington Monument, which is the work of the famous sculptor, Charles Keck, of New York, has been proclaimed "a master work of art" by those who have visited the sculptor's studio. It is a representation in bronze, standing eight feet high, of Booker T. Washington, "lifting the vell" of ignorance and superstition from the eyes of the Negro and pointing the way to opportunity, prosperity and success through education, industry and thrift. The statue will be erected upon an artistic base eight feet high, in the center of the campus and will stand as an indication of the recognition of, and the appreciation for, the work wrought by Dr. Washington for his race, on the part of Negroes by whose contribution the monument was made possible. Dr. Moton Announces Large Attendance Expected Dr. R. R. Moton, Principal, and announced today that Honorable William G. Willcox, New York City Chairman of the Board of Trustees with other Northern and Eastern Trustees, is planning to bring a large number of friends from the East to the Institute at this time, and Mr. Julius Rosenwald, Chicago philanthropist, and a Trustee of the Institute, is to bring a large number from the West. These parties will make the trip in special cars. Other special parties are being organized by representative Negro leaders in various parts of the country. Many friends and admirers of Dr Washington and the Tuskegee Institute, will take advantage of the opportunity, which a visit at this time will offer, to see the school and its work as well as to pay tribute to the memory of the man who founded it. Announcement as to reduced rates will be released at a later date. THE BROAD AX, CHICAGO, ILL., Saturday, February 25, 1922 PEOPLE ARE DIFFERENT NOW Why don't they stop making heroes out of murderers? Why don't they stop making flirts, vampires and underworld characters illustrious? Why do they put the picture of a woman who has murdered her husband in the great daily papers? Why do they oxygenate the public mind with every hellish particle of misconduct that leads up to the divorce courts, and then cover the whole piece of scandal with a lot of sickly sentimental rot? Is society benefitted? Are the children of today our men and women of the future benefitted? Who is benefitted? Only the commercial ball of filth which grows larger at every turn, and enriches the commercial press that gathers in the putrid maw the money of a greatly debased and degraded reading public. What is to be done about it? The pity is nothing can be done. We are helpless, and hunger for nobler things without hope. It is no wonder that Hollywood is looked upon as a heavenly place by our boys and girls. No wonder we hear on every hand from little girls, "People are different now." Ask the average boy today who his hero is, and he will not hesitate to say, "Bill Hart," "Charlie Chaplin," or "Douglas Fairbanks." In another era Roosevelt, McKinley and Lincoln would have embellished the childish lips of little men whose hearts were not scorched by the fever of de-bauled sentiment. Ask the young girls for their heroine and they loudly and blatantly proclaim some member of the Follies, the movies, or some divorcee or killer of a husband or two. In another era the glorious name of Miss Frances E. Wifillard, Miss Jane Addams, Miss Susan B. Anthony or Judge Hellen Foster would have perched upon their maiden lips too sweet and pure for the sickly kiss of our common clay. People are different now as the children tell us, and being different now is the chief cause of all the great and grand comedy of our present social class. It will not be attributed to styles and fashions that we are becoming unfit. Bordering on the night life force of the demimond and the beaux-brummell of human degradation with more money than brains, and more of the animal creation than human, garnished and plumaged to satiate a thirst ungoldy and devil driven, besotted and besmirched with worse desires than any brute in jungle or South Sea Island. Savagery is tame and thoughtless. The philosophy of all the ages is mustered to the front lines and trenches of moral turpitude in its sight to the death against the virtue and holy attributes that made our mothers the women they were. And there are today as noble women and men as there ever were. But, as the children tell us, "People are different now." IN OHIO Mra. Amelia McGavock. 4425 S.

BOOK CHAT--BY MARY WHITE OVINGTON-CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF COL-ORED PEOPLE. AUTHOR OF "HALF A MAN," "HAZEL," "THE SHADOW."ETC. "THE HANDBOOK SERIES: SEL ECTED ARTICLES ON THE NEGRO PROBLEM" Compiled by Julia E. Johnson; Pub lished by the H. W. Wilson Co., New York; Price, $2.25; Postage 8 Cents This book which is just off the press will find a long felt want. It is a compilation of opinion on the Negro question, with also a liberal sprinkling of fact. It has an admirable bibliography, giving 24 pages to books and magazine articles on various phases of the race question. While this is not exhaustive, it is up to date and valuable. It is in short, one of the Wilson Handbooks, and those who have been to the public library for help in working up an article or a debate on "Immigration" or "Labor" or "Prison Reform" must often have used one of these handbooks and have known the convenience of having a compilation full of important matters all gathered into one comfortable volume. In her explanatory note the compiler says: "In accordance with the general plan of the Handbook Series, the constant aim in both reprint and bibliography has been for impartiality toward all views, and selections have been chosen from both white and Negro writers, from opposers and sympathizers of the Negro alike, yet with the aim not so much to maintain exact balance as to give expressions to views, that reflect representative opinions and conditions of race friction, and that serve best to indicate the way for constructive effort." This is quite true and there is material in the book with which none of my readers will agree, but, on the other hand, every unfavorable article has a favorable one to balance it. If we have a reactionary article on Negro suffrage by William A. Dunnkag, it is followed by Archibald H. Grimke, on "Why Disfranchisement is Bad." Wallace B. Conant tells us that emigration is the solution of the Negro problem, and Stanhope Sams, writing from a southerner's view-point, says that "One of the chief obstacles to a satisfactory solution of the race question is the want of race-consciousness and race pride on the part of the Negro," but GRAND MUSICAL AT ST. PAUL C. M. E. CHURCH Every detail of arrangement has been perfected for the mammoth musical and literary program to be staged on Monday evening, February 27 in the St. Paul C. M. E. Church, 4644 Dearborn St. A representative citizens committee of 50 persons, headed by Frank W. Henry, noted young civic leader, have worked untimingly to make the event a huge success. Charles Satechell Morris, Jr., the brilliant and eminent young Colored orator, a senior in the University of Chicago, where he stands in the front rank of his class, the veteran of more than a thousand platforms will deliver his celebrated address on "The Hour Has Come." Young Morris has triumphed over white competitors in seven oratorical contests having been awarded trophies by President Stryker of Hamilton College and President Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia University. He has spoken to capacity audiences in thirty three states. It is expected that a record breaking crowd will be present next Monday night. Miss O. G. Stone, famous young singer who made her debut recently, will be the sofaist of the evening. Honorable Oscar De Priest, former Alderman, will act as the Master of Ceremonies, while Frank W. Henry will introduce the speaker of the occasion. Tickets may be secured at the St. Paul C. M. E. Church, the Wabash Avenue Y. M. C. A., Milton's Mercantile Agency, oPter's Drug Store, Poole & Henry, Undertakers, and from any member of the Committee. Ten beautiful young ladies attired in white will act as ushers for the Rev. W. D. Cook, One of the Best and Ablest Preachers in Chicago, and He Is Dearly Beloved By All Those Who Attend Divine Services at His Church. George E. Haynes and Kelly Miller are quoted afterwards in refutation. The tenor of the book is generous, and the southern authorities quoted almost without exception belong to the liberal group. Edgar Gardner Murphy, Mrs. Hammond Kesler, of Texas, Wilner of Tennessee, are among the southernners quoted. Washington and DuBois are given more space than any other colored writers, but many are quoted. Of especial interest is an article from The Challenge on, "The Economic Interpretation of Peonage." It is a wonderful fine piece of writing, very quiet in its tone, but with terrifying facts regarding the conditions in Jasper County, Georgia, where John S. Williams had his "murder farm." The saving of articles like this give such a compilation of its great value. Another article, printed some years ago, that one is glad to read again, is Theodore Roosevelt's "Brazil and the Negro." Appearing in The Outlook, in 1914, it called down wrath upon the editor. Roosevelt did not find the white Brazilian drawing the color line, and he saw intermarriage usual in that country between the two races. His quoting a prominent South American who believed that the Brazilian had chosen the wiser way in accepting amalgamation seemed greatly to excite the reading public. We are glad to know that Roosevelt, whatever his convictions might have been, was ready to discuss amalgamation. In her preface, the compiler, Miss S. Johnson, says: "The Negro has a separate life of his own that we are not generally aware of, just as classes within our own race have their mutual centers. It is the normal way of growth, but, made too exclusive, it is the way, also, of unhealthy self-centeredness and agitation." This hand book shows the agitation, it brings out the facts of the Negro life in America today, and it does it in an attractive form, by quotations from first one author and then another, each complementing the other and making a rounded whole. As I said at the beginning, this book is of especial value to persons taking parts in debates. It will doubtless find its way into our libraries and schools and it is an excellent addition to any private library. occasion. Young Morris' recent appearances upon the platform have attracted wide attention. His late denunciation of the Gypsy Smith "Jim Crow" meeting staged in his home city, Norfolk, Virginia, brought him in the limelight. He has addressed Chicagoans in many great meetings, but the one next Monday night is expected to excel all. Doors will be opened promptly at 7:30, the concert beginning at 8:30 punctually. MISS ELIZA COPPAGE WINS NEW FRIENDS Interprets Effectively Eugene Brieux's "The Letter of the Law" Hampton, Va.—Miss Eliza Coppage, who received her elementary, high-school, and normal training in the Norfolk Mission College, and her training as an elocutionist in the Williams School of Expression and Dramatic Art of Ithaca, N. Y., recently gave a monologue interpretation, in three scenes, of Engene Brieux's "The Letter of the Law," which is a tragical play, for the benefit of the Colored Community House of Hampton, in Ogden Hall, Hampton Institute, to a large and representative audience. Her finished work showed her ability to interpret at least eight characters in one dramatic reading. She won the appreciation of men and women who are interested in the art of oral interpretation. Miss Coppage also included in her dramatic recital Gilbert Parker's "The Going of the White Swan," Dunbar's "The Ladies' Aid," and Willis" "The Wild White Rose." Miss Coppage was assisted by three members of the Hampton Institute staff of workers, who furnished the following musical numbers: Johnson's "The Awakening," by Wilhelmina B. Patterson, soprano, teacher of singing at Hampton; Buck's "Fear Not Ye, O Israel," by Paige I. Lancaster, former first lieutenant with the "Buffaloes," and Dett's "Incantation," by R. Nathan Dett, director of vocal music at Hampton.

BIG SALES AT THE HEAD- QUARTERS OF THE URBAN LEAGUE The many friends of the Chicago Urban League will be happy to know hte results of its Rummage Sale. First and chief among the results was the demonstration of co-operation given by the people of Chicago of both races and all classes by checking, pricing, arranging, selling, contributing, or buying the material or giving time and thought to planning the Sale. They, each and all, were indispensable elements in the final success of the whole effort. The officers of the League hardly know how to express their thanks adequately to these splendid people. The space allotted prohibits the mention of all of them, though they are certainly worthy of public recognition. The net monetary result thus far is $416.91. The Executive Secretary, T. Arnold Hill, therefore takes this means of expressing publicly his very great appreciation of all who in any way contributed to the success of the Sale. JUNIOR SERVICE LEAGUE Fifty invited guests enjoyed the gracious hospitality of the Junior Service League at a Valentine Party given Friday evening, Feb. 17 in the beautifully decorated rooms of The Phyllis Wheatley Home. The girls were highly commended for their high class dancing programs artistically printed on red hearts. The League is composed of girls ranging in age from 14 to 18. They meet every Saturday from 1:30 p.m. to 3 p.m. m. in The Social Service Dept. of Fort Dearborn Hospital They sew for the baby ward of the hospital. They were chaperoned by three of the mothers, Mrs. Urrels, Mrs. Keyser and Mrs. Judd, Mrs. Irene B. Borere and Mrs. E. L.

Carr The Regular Democratic Candidate Who Will Come In Under The So-Called Opponents Primary MAKING A RECORD AS COUN TY TREASURER The Regular Democratic Candidate for Treasurer of Cook County, Who Will Come In Under The Wire Far Ahead of All of His So-Called Opponents Primary Day, Tuesday, April 11. Patrick J. Carr, present County Treasurer appointed by the County Board on April 20, 1921 to fill the unexpired term of the late Harry R. Gibbons. His selection was the unanimous choice of the County Board at a special meeting held on the above date. At the time of his appointment Mr. Carr pledged himself to carry out the campaign pledges of the late Mr. Gibbons, and officially stated at the time that the watchword of the office would be "Courtesy and Service to the tax paying Public," especially to the small tax payers, who are found to be timid about asking questions regarding their taxes. In this connection, one of the most recent moves for the convenience of the tax payers was the location of about 15 additional sub-stations, making a total of 87 sub-stations throughout the city for the payment of taxes. These sub-stations, which are located in the thickly populated sections of Chicago, are for the sole purpose of collecting taxes in the neighborhood, thereby relieving the tax payer of the necessity of coming down to the Treasurer's office, and perhaps waiting in line for an hour or so. Has also established an information desk with men in charge who speak various foreign languages. New Interest Record It was only recently that Mr. Carr set a new record in turning back to the County interest on 1921 collections, in that he turned over a total of $654,191,90 representing interest on County moneys to November 30, 1921, the end of the County's fiscal year. This is by far the largest amount of interest ever returned by a County Treasurer. Mr. Carr Lauds Checking System The wisdom of checking on the Treasurer's records and requiring him to report all interest earned is shown, Mr. Carr says, in comparing the records of past years. In 1905 the total interest turned over by the County Treasurer was only $73,138, according to records in the County Comptroller's office. The total has grown steadily until it has reached the big figure reported by Mr. Carr. In 1909 the interest received, according to the Comptroller's records, had increased to $117,266.91, in 1914 it had amounted to $189,286.12, in 1918 to $300,535.45, in 1920 to $588,681.17, and this year to $654,419.90. The best showing of any month during 1921 was in May, when the interest amount- 1920 NON JAMES A SCOTT HON. JAMES A.

The poorest showing was in January, $12,461.12, a period when practically no tax money was being received. Mr. Carr, during his period of office, has taken every precaution to prevent tax sharks buying the property of poor delinquent tax payers, and in this respect he has notified by registered mail all delinquent tax payers from 5 to 10 days previous to the date set for the sale of any particular tax warrants, and in this way a great number of property owners have avoided the expense and time of redeeming their property from the tax sharks. This is a service that only the poor tax payer can appreciate, that is to say, anyone who cannot see their way clear to make payment for property when it is due. Enormous Amount of Money Yearly It may be news to you to know that the County Treasurer of Cook County handles during the course of a fiscal year, approximately $210,000,000.00. It is a big business proposition and Mr. Carr is at the head of it, and he has been functioning the office as a big man should, and thus serving the people faithfully and well in the capacity of County Treasurer, however, Mr. Carr is only acting in accordance with his previous record of a public official. Mr. Carr was born in Chicago on September 4, 1880. After completing a grammar school course he attended De Lasalle Institute, peddling papers in South Halsted street to pay for his tuition and help with the family expenses. Early in life he was employed as packing clerk in W. F. McLaughlin's Coffee House and subsequently joined the Chicago Vessel Unloaders' Union, and worked as a foreman stevedore on docks of the Chicago River for five years. He successfully passed a civil service examination for appointment as sidewalk inspector for the City, and resigned this position to accept the nomination for alderman of the 5th ward, which he represented in the Council for two terms. He was subsequently elected by Democrats as a member of the Board of Trustees of the Sanitary District. The most notable ordinance introduced and passed through his efforts provided for filling in of Bubbly Creek, an eyesore on the south side for a decade. This also embodied the opening of 39th street as a main thoroughfare from the lake to the Forest Preserve. Mr. Carr is popular in the stockyards district, and has represented the 5th ward in the Democratic County Central Committee for the last fourteen years. I Berk County and the Crowe Repub- commissioner Who, with His Many He Will Win the Nomination at the Charles E. Stump, The Regular Traveling Correspondent For The Broad Ax, Is Still Spending Much of His Time Down South Mingling With The Big Bishops and The Educators. Live Oaks, Florida.—Bishop A. J. Carey, of Chicago is as happy as a lark if that bird is considered happy, because he succeeded in landing the next general conference right in Louisville, Ky. I mean the general conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church, and the Rev. Noah Williams wears a smile on him that would outdo the "Gold Dust Twins," because he is the pastor of Quinn chapel, and that will give him an opportunity to serve his berthen, and in return will give them the opportunity to serve him. All men should believe in reciprocating. You see when that general conference goes to Louisville, Dr. Williams will be the main guy in selecting stopping places for all the men and women who make up the general conference and all the visitors who will be there, and he is going to shape things that all will have good places, and all will be so well fed that they will say to Dr. Williams, "You will make a good missionary secretary." There is something to live for and work for in the A. M. E. church. Then just up the road, in Indianapolis, is Charles Sumner Williams, and the Lord has ordained that he shall be one of the bishops of his church. He is a good man and is rendering good service, and then in addition to this he is a trained man, one worth all that you can hand to him, and would be a credit on the bench. But I am not bishop and general officer making this week, but I am dealing in education. I have been to P. E. HON. EMETT WHEALAN Chairman of the Finance Committee of the Board of Cook County Commissioners Who Will Be Renominated at the Primaries Tuesday, April 11. Hon. Emmett Whealan, who is successfully finishing his first term as county commissioner, always greets all comers with a pleasant smile and with the glad hand, who stands ace high with all classes of his fellow citizens and has a splendid business record behind him. He has a quick grasp of financial matters, and when Mr. Ryan was elevated to the presidency, Mr. Whealan was made chairman of the County Board Finance Committee. Also, he is chairman of the Forest Preserve Board Real Es- state Committee. He formerly was connected with the business of newspaper making, in which vocation he gained skill in the mechanical departments. In recent years he has been engaged in the real estate business, specializing in the southwestern section of Chicago. His home is at 5629 South Seeley Ave. He is of the realty firm of Whealan & Byrne, 6345 S. Western Avenue. Alderman Thomas F. Byrne, one of the big guns of the city council is connected with Commissioner Whealan in the real estate business. some schools, and if I could just get a diploma from all the schools I go, I would just be the most educated man in all this country, but since I do not I just go to the schools, look wise, and make big sounds, and have the people I can fool believe that I am some pumpkins in this education business. If you will go back to Montgomery where I was when I wrote that other letter, you will recall that I was there mingling with big men, the bishops of three great Methodist churches. I was just the bishop of the Baptist church, yet I found time to take a peep at them other bishops and here and there say a word to them. I was just as happy as a June bug in a blackberry patch. It is a fine thing to be able to mingle with big men. Rev. S. J. Johnson, of San Antonio, Texas, treated me just like he would a big brother, and there were other strong and able men there. I mention Dr. Johnson, because he is already a big man and is to be the next secretary of Church Extension, and I am sure he will make a good one. They are going to have a helvua time in the church for the next few months I fear. I think that it would be well to take Secretary Ira T. Bryant to the Lord in prayer, rather than to get mixed up in the courts of Nashville, taking it to the judge in prayer which will cost thousands of dollars. Getting angry because a brother made a mistake will not get him out, especially when he has fighting faith enough to contend for his rights and take it to the judge. The hishops declared that Secretary Bryant had sown the seeds of dissension, and Bishop C. S. Smith prepared a paper which he read before the tri council, declaring that the A. M. E. church offered an apology to the A. M. E. Z. and the C. M. E. churches, and telling them that they had requested the Sunday School Union Secretary to resign—in case he did not resign then the Board of Managers were instructed to suspend him from office until the meeting of the general conference. But he did not take into account that the Sunday School Union was chartered, and there was something more to be done than to just suspend a man without charges and specifications, without his having been tried by the church first and found guilty of something. Well, I am not prepared to tell you dear readers, what the end of this will be. Bishop Flipper resigned from the chairmanship of the Board of Managers, but I am told according to law he cannot resign—that is to say the bishops could not accept his resignation and place in charge his successor, Bishop W. D. Chappelle. All of this will be fought out I fear in the courts, but I hope not. I hope the bishops will accept the situation and let things remain until the meeting of their general conference next in Louisville, Kv. 1924. I have been out to that wonderful plant operated in Mt. Meigs, the Peoples Village School, at the head of which is Miss Georgia Washington, a native of Virginia, and a graduate from Hampton, and who is still feeding her mind every year at Columbia in New York. She is a wonder of the age. It was a great opportunity to visit this plant to see how the work is being conducted there. Everything ate Committee.

I was thrown in contact with the trained nurse, the woman who holds an A. B. from Columbia, Mrs. Harriet Jones, of New York, and there was another well trained woman from way out in Washington, who is vice principal, and then there were other well trained women from Fisk, and other schools of standing. God bless this wonderful work. I also had the pleasure of visiting the state normal school in Montgomery, and meeting that prince of educators, Prof. G. W. Trenholm, the president, and a man who is making things happen. I had a great desire to see him follow the late William H. Councill at Normal, but the white folks thought otherwise, and I had to bow my head and exclaim "Praise the Lord." There is a little woman there from Meridian, Mississippi, Miss Bertha Smith, and honey she is some scholar. She is doing a great big work. She is a graduate from Howard, and is also taking some special work at Columbia in New York. She is small in body, but all brains. I found so much pleasure in meeting her. I also met Mrs. Govan, who is another fine school and who is assisting in the work there at the state normal. I am going to devote a whole letter to this work later, as well as to the work of Miss Washington. Into Mobile for a few minutes. I did not get to see many friends there. I met Dr. H. Roger Williams, and spent most of my time with him. He is a wonder of the age, and a scholar and poet. He read some of his writings to me, and honey he is just there. It takes a man to live in Mobile.

Dr. Williams just took down his sign and put his own mug in the window, and you could see who he was. He is a busy man, and because of his wonderful ability many white people called on him. He is just a doctor, and he knows his stuff, as well as others in the town. From Mobile, I made it to Mariana, Florida, and then to this place, and here I am in another great college, the Florida Memorial College, at the head of which stands Prof. A. C. Curtwright, a trained man, a graduate from Moorhouse College, and a man who believes in doing things. I will not tell you all this week. I am down in the hot clime, and I want you to pray for me that I may get out when I am ready to leave. I am getting ready for the National Baptist Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. congress in New Orleans in June, and then I am going to the National Baptist convention in Los Angeles, Cal. I will tell you about these things from time to time. Many preachers are getting ready now for California. CHARLES E. STUMP PUSHING BUSINESS The Bailey Realty Co., and the Milton Mercantile Agency, 3638 S. State street, of which M. T.

This is considerably less than is usually charged by other cemeteries for like services. It cannot be too strongly emphasized and borne in mind that while the cemeteries are beautiful and attractive in the City of Chichester and its environs, yet the price of $50.00, not to include the stock bonus, which is easily $10.00, represents about 25 per cent of the selling lots in the average cemetery.
