AUTE SPLENDID RECOR R. JACKSON AS THE BENEFICIA THE SUPREME C The members of the Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias of this state held forth at Paris, Ill., last week, and after considerable talking on the part of its members as to how Attorney John R. Auter managed to beat or hoodwink the Grand Lodge out of twelve thousand and five hundred dollars, the following officers were elected for the coming year without much fighting on the part of those seeking the various offices. Dr. Allen A. Wesley, G. C.; Dr. J. Allen Cotton, G. M. of W.; Charles A. Bowler, G. V. C.; W. O. King, Grand Prelate; R. R. Jackson, G. M. of Ex.; Frank B. Waring, G. K. of R. & S.; Willard Moody, G.

George, Secretary; John Bailey, Clinton L. Hill, Thos. Allen Lucius L. Lee. All the reports as read by the head chiefs of the several departments of that order showed that the Grand Lodge was in the most flourishing condition and from a money point of view the Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias of Illinois is as solid or as strong as the big foundation stones which rests in the thick concrete under the City Hall of Chicago. Major Robert R. Jackson was reelected Treasurer of the Beneficiary Board without the slightest opposition responsible and important position and for twenty years he has held position and for twenty years he has kept his accounts straight with it, and his books have always in that length of GEORGIA GOVERNOR PROMISES PUNISHMENT TO LYNCHERS The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has announced the receipt of a letter from Governor Thomas W. Hardwick of Georgia regarding the lynching of Joe Jordan and James Harvey, two young colored men, convicted of assault, who were lynched on July 1 at Lanes Bridge, Georgia, after they had been granted a respite of 30 days by the Governor. In reply to the Association's request that not only the lynch- --- time balanced right down to the last penny. He is also the treasurer of the Supreme Grand Lodge of the Knights of Pythias throughout the world, and he has served in that capacity with great distinction for more than twenty years. Any time that the high chiefs of that order desire to gaze upon the money belonging to the Supreme Lodge, Major Jackson is ever ready to flash it up to them. Any time that some of the accountants from the office of the state Auditor's office of Illinois gives him the rush act and break into his office early in the morning and exclaim, "Major Jackson, turn over your books to us for we want to see just how much money you have in the banks before we start in to checking up or balancing up your books," and without uttering one word of protest on the part of Major Jackson, he reaches for his bank books and turns them over to them. After they wend their way to the banks and count and check up the money down to the last penny, and they return to the office of Major Jackson, they call for his books. After figuring and figuring and finally stop, and say, "Major Jackson, your books and cash in the banks balance right down to the last penny, and we find that you have on hand every cent belonging to the Beneficiary Board of the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias of Illinois!" It must be said, to the everlasting credit of Major Jackson, that he was the founder or the creator of the Uniform Ranks, Knights of Pythias, throughout the body, being the military branch of that order. Twenty years ago the Knights of Pythias possessed scarcely any property, but today, largely through the untiring efforts of Major Jackson, and Hon. Edward D. Green, the order is worth more than four million dollars.ers be punished but that Sheriff Rogers of Wayne County, Georgia, and Deputy Sheriff Tyre, who permitted the mob to take the prisoners from him, be adequately punished. The Governor replied: "As Governor of this State, I have offered the largest reward authorized by law for the perpetrators of this outrage, and I will instruct the court authorities and the Solicitor-General of the judicial circuit in which Wayne County is located, to present the matter to the grand jury at its approaching session. I will do all I can to vindicate the law in this matter." [Name] Grand Major General of the Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias, Throughout the World, Who Has Been Re-Elected Treasurer of the Beneficiary Board of the Grand Lodge of the State of Illinois. ```markdown ``` HAITIAN GIRL HELD IN PEON AGE RELEASED Altida Supplice, Haitian girl under fifteen years of age, has been returned to her home, after being held for more than a year in virtual peonage in Washington, D. C., through the efforts of the District of Columbia Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. according to announcement. The girl was brought to the United States in 1921 by the wife of a captain in the Marines Corps on a promise of ten dollars a month in wages and a home. Although the girl was forced to do all sorts of menial tasks, she never received more than five dollars for any month's work and at the end of most months she was told that she had nothing due her as her wages had been expended for clothes. These the marine officer's wife purchased for the girl, declaring that the cost was always in excess of wages due in order that the girl might remain perpetually in debt. Becoming dissatisfied, the girl ran away but was caught and returned to her employers. Later she ran away again and this time the case was reported to Shelby J. Davidson, Executive Secretary of the District of Columbia Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. In company with Prof. Metz Lochard of Howard University, who acted as interpreter and Mr. William Pickens who happened to be in Washington at the time, Mr. Davidson called on M. Arthur Bailly-Blanchard, Haitian Minister to the United States. The Haitian Minister at first seemed disinclined to take any action in the matter, but upon the delegation's insistence he consented to take the matter up by talking with the wife of the marine. She denied the charges, although competent witnesses proved the truth of what the girl had charged. It was discovered during the interview that she had asked the Washington police to arrest the girl and return her. HON. ROBERT R. JACKSON For General of the Uniform Rank, Knight out the World, Who Has Been Re- the Beneficiary Board of the Grand Illinois. When it was found, that this had been done, the Board of Children's Guardians was requested to take charge of the girl until she could be returned to her home. This was done while at the same time steps were taken through the United States Immigration Bureau to arrange to have the girl returned to Haiti on the first steamer. Both of these steps proved successful and the girl has been returned to her parents in Haiti, from whom she had been taken by the marine and his wife without the knowledge and consent of the parents. The successful conclusion of this case circumvents a bold attempt to hold a person in peonage in the national capital. MOB IN AUTO RACE TRAIN FOR PORTER Cullman, Ala.—According to information received Will E. Hayes, Pullman porter, accused by a white woman passenger of attempted assault was taken off the train at Birmingham and rushed to the county jail for safety. A mob had surrounded the train at Cullman, and attempted to get Hayes. Quick action by the conductor in starting the train foiled the mob which however followed in autos to the Birmingham station only a few miles distant. Hayes declares that the charge of attempted assault is a frame up by the woman who he could not please by any amount of attention or service, and he was abused by her. In a fit of fault finding anger she told the porter "I know how to fix you, and I'm going to do it." Later she entered a toilet, in a few moments she called the porter, and when he responded the woman screamed and accused Hayes with attempted assault. ```markdown ``` Later on it was amply proven that Hayes did not attempt to assault the white lady, in ahy manner, shape or form. It seems to us that the lady needed some one to dash a bucket of cold water upon her in order to cool her off for she was too hot or cross. Editor PROF. ROBERT R. MOTON A pretty little story is going the rounds of the press about Robert Russia Moton going to the rescue of a white woman in New York city. It was a brave act, but it also brings to mind that he was not so brave when his own wife was thrown out of a Pullman sleeper in 1915. According to the stories printed at the time in the public press, he was not with her, and when he learned of the affair he rebuked, her for her temerity in going into a Pullman car.! To the above we say Amen! amen! —Editor. New York, N. Y.—The "S. S. Yarmouth," the first of the boats to be acquired by the Black Star Line, was sold by a United States Marshall for $1,625. The Black Star Line paid upward of $60,000 for the boat. The information was published in "Nauticus." The "Yarmouth" belonged to Col Garvey's Black Star Line of steamships which was supposed to run between the United States and Africa. Dr. and Mrs. Harry W. Garnes are in Columbus, Ohio, attending the sessions of the National Musicians Convention, and before returning home, Dr. Garnes will arrange some singing dates, for Madam Garnes in that section of the country in the near future. THE KU KLUX KLANS ARE IN FAVOR OF ENDING THE LIVES OF ALL THE COLORED PEOPLE IN THE UNITED STATES OR TRANSPORTING THEM BACK TO AFRICA. IT SEEMS THAT COL. MARCUS GARVEY HAS JOINED HANDS WITH THE LEADING LIGHTS OF THAT MOST REPREHENSIBLE AND DIABOLICAL MIDNIGHT ORGANIZATION. Some fellow by the name of Clarke, acting head of the Ku Klux Klan of America, or Knights of the White Cross, is laying deep rooted plans to wipe out or exterminate the colored race in this country, so it is contended by Mr. Charles P. Sweeney who is one of the well known writers in the eastern part of this country. According to Mr. Sweeney, Clarke aims at the sterilization of all male Negro children so that the Negro will gradually disappear from the American continent. He adds that Negroes are joining the Catholic Church for protection. Quotes Simmon's Speech To show that this hostile attitude toward colored people is official, Mr. Sweeney quotes the following from a speech of Colonel Simmons, real Ku Klux head, now on vacation: "All the folks of color can take their place—they had better take it and stay in it when they get in it. This is a white man's civilization and we are the instrumentalities for the preservation of that which was created by years of devotion, which has given to the world the open Bible, the little red school house, if you please, the great public school system, all those things which have come to us through years of devout thought and hard work as a sacred heritage. "Men tell me that the Negroes in this state, and I am not going out of the State of Georgia, are paying their poll taxes for as far back as fourteen years and qualifying to vote. * * * I am informed that every buck Nigger in Atlanta who attains the age of twenty-one years has gotten the money to pay his poll tax and register, and that 6,000 of them are now ready to vote, and that these apes are going to line up at the polls, mixed up there with white men and white women. Lord forgive me, but that is the most sickening and disgusting sight you ever saw. (Loud applause.) "You've got to change that * * * Keep the Negro and the other fellow where he belongs. They have got no part in our political or social life. If in one, he will get into the other." In order to secure elimination of the Negro, Jew and Catholics from American life, the Ku Klux Klan has organized twelve other societies including the Masons, Junior Order of American Mechanics, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, Guardians of Liberty, Order of Eastern Star, Rebekkahs, Loyal Ornament, Lights of Luther, National Legion of Pathfinders and the Order of de Molay. Forces Negroes to Work In twenty-seven states, Mr. Sweeney 5 CENTS per copy IS OF PARIS, MAJOR CTED MOST OF THE CTED. MANS ARE IN FAVOR THE LIVES OF ALL PEOPLE IN THE S OR TRANSPORT- K TO AFRICA. COL. MARCUS GARNED HANDS WITH LIGHTS OF THAT SENSIBLE AND DIANIGHT ORGANIZA- says, the Klan has made nearly 200 public appearances in hoods in the last ten months. In Texas, he declared, that black men have been forced to work and pick cotton at rates they would not accept if the decision were left to themselves. Throughout the South and Southwest, the Negro population lives in constant fear of the hooded band of nightriders. This is the same Klan that Garvey as the advertised leader of four hundred million Negroes, has taken pleasure and effort in taking the whole front page of the Negro World in advertising to his followers. What has the Klan for Garvey? What has Garvey for the Klan? Has not the Klan done enough against our people yet? What could Garvey, a foreign Negro, have common with an avowed enemy of the Negro race? Negroes who respected the aims and ambitions of Marcus Garvey before his talk with Clarke, the Kluxer, have now lost all respect for him, doubt his honest intentions and think he has condescended to sell the Negro out to gain the support of the Klah so that his indictment for alleged crooked dealings might be dismissed. What could a foreign Negro lose in America, if he sold out American Negroes and their rights? The same doubt and suspicion exists in reasonable people's mind, if Foch were to consult with Emperor William on French matters during the time when Emperor Bill was invading and persecuting Frenchmen. Lately Col. Garvey seeking more easy money made his famous swing around the circle through many of the southern states and while speaking before white and colored people in Richmond, Va. and New Orleans, La. He spoke in part as follows: "This is a white man's country. He found it, he conquered it, and we can't blame him if he wants to keep it. I am not vexed with the white man of the South for Jim Crowing me because I am black. "I never built any street cars or railroads. The white man built them for his own convenience. And if I don't want to ride where he's willing to let me ride then I'd better walk." This is a fair sample of the rot which Col. Garvey belched forth during his tour through the South. On his return to New York City, he addressed a big meeting. Among other things he stated: "What should be the Negro's attitude toward such an organization as the Ku Klux Klan?" "It should be not to fight it, not to aggravate it, but to think of what it means, and say and do nothing.

AFFAIRS By Dr. M. A. Majors ‘Sometimes we have a notion to give the readers of The Broad Ax a kalei- doscope view of the shifting scenes of the universe, and then we feel that we ought to let that responsibility rest upon stronger shoulders. When the great war came to an end it left in its wake a weaker people but a wiser people. Intelligence had to as- sert itself. Education was the balm seats eats sat Se the heart to build up where devastation had lain its gaunt pros- trate form. Widows tears had to be dried, sadness had sickened the soul of humanity. Where the ugliest mis- chief had wrought in wholesale ruin, trath, love, and mercy must soothe to exquisite paliation the broken and dejected heart. Sober sense must needs be the good samaritan to those that sorrowed. Civilization the proud boast of mankind was mustered in to straighten out the things that had been bent and twisted by the maraud- ing band of the desperado in arms. The present day preachments of peace became the legislative topics of states- men and a steadfast gaze became the focus upon a better, higher nobler re- gime called world democracy. Now after the lapse of four years the world is still busy at the work of rehabilitation in a multiplicity of forms. Hospitals for maimed sol- diers, vocational schools for those wounded and broken in body and spirit, readjustment and repair became the economic and industrial upheaval HON. EDWARD D.

Is humanity great enough to undertake so great a task when this same dogmatic spirit of this same humanity a few years ago wrought so diabolically to tear down the great arches and architectures the acme of the ages highest reaches in the art and mechanical devices of Christendom? In treating so ponderous a subject many things out of the understanding of the mutitude must necessarily enter into the consideration, Religion must take a stronger hold upon humanity. Christianity must embrace a broader, larger and a more distinctive spirit than ever before, and the Golden Rule spun on a golden spool must become the chiefest ideality of nations as well as individuals. Dogmatism must give way for dogmas of greater potency along the line of surplanting the ego and reading in its stead the Christly spirit which must have greater mani- festation than heretofore and an un- biased brotherhool teeming with all of the kingly graces of our noblest humanity. The earth yield is abundant. There need be no hunger rags, or poverty. More significant than ever is to be a great recession of color prejudice all over the world. Civilization is the opposite to barbarism and fortunately the school and the college and a thou- sand other mighty forces are standing back of the intellectual upreach among all of the nations. The race to which we belong has moved up a few pegs in its upward HON. CHARLES C. ROE striving towards better things. It has contributed mightily out of its small storehouse toward the betterment of the world. In religion, wealth, indus- try, labor, kindliness and meekness, fun, and foolishness we have done more than any in proportion to our wants and needs. In the final analy- sis tradition which has so long yoked us to helplessness and made us the easy prey to plunder and the easy mark for others to impose upon is out of date. The Present day up-to- date Negro will not tolerate one whit of foolishness either in religion, busi- ness or banking and he insists, that the other races must bring the adjust- ment to suit the age in which democ- racy makes every citizen no matter of what race the crownless king of the world. THE DEVIL’s FOOTPRINTS IN BLOOD By Dr. M. A. Majors I must step three steps to each step you make, T have to suffer and work like hell for your sake While you under cover of a white colored rind Slink Tike a coward and leave me to grind. Well the grinding may keep on till the Judgment Day, And: somebody is going to haye the devil to pay. I take in my anguish, this suffering you bring, While up thru my groans yet sfill I can sing; It charms you and thrills you but you leave me to grope, In the woes of despair and have left me no hope. . T am black and must struggle because of my race * Until through your lust you have whitened my face. ‘What then will you do proud monster of Iust? You whitener of blacks! will you ever ‘be just?

The Negro's numerical disad- vantage in this country is too great.” This statement, alleged to have ‘been uttered by Marcus Garvey at a [monster meeting held at Liberty Hall following a two-Hour conference with ‘Acting Imperial Wizard Clarke in At- lanta, Ga, on June 25, has arouséd a veritable storm of protest in every section, of the country. * Garvey's mention of the Klan, at the -meeting, aroused hisses from ‘every section of the big building where the ‘meeting was held, and his followers listened with amazement as the head of the U. N. I. A., “Back to Africa Movement,” and the Black ‘Star Line, now reported to be insol- vent, stated that he, lad learned the purpose -of the order which has en- deavored to take the law in its own hands, and whose avowed purpose is “white supremacy,” with the over- throw of all Negroes, Jews and Cath- olics, Col. Garvey, who claims to be the Moses of hundreds of millions of col- ored people, has played himself out in the North, East and West of the United States. The West Indies, Panama, Africa and South America are through with him. The Negroes in these places invested their money in the “Black Star Sea,” and instead of the line runing horizontally across the water, it ran perpendicularly to the bottom with every cent. In some respects it is like the story told by Dr. Parkhurst of New York of a stock selling company. They told him that he would be let in on the ground floor, and he says they did, for he went straight through to the cellar! ‘These West Indians and the Ne- groes who have fallen for Garvey's gush have gone straight through to the cellar, so Garvey seeks a new field for exploitation. The only possible orie is the Negroes of the South— ignorant, uneducated, intimidated. But the only access to the South is the permission of the South's invis- ible government, the Ku Klux Klan. This permission, however, could never be secured while Garvey main- tained his smart, anti-white man’s tone. So Garvey went to see the Kleagle in Georgia, no doubt asked Ku Klux Kleagle Clarke to write down just what the Klam would like for him (Garvey) to say. As the next issue of this paper will contain a more extensive article on Col. Garvey and the Ku Klux Klan, we will reserve further comment on him and his traitorous betrayal of the colored people until that time. TENNESSEE'S SUCCESSFUL INTER-RACIAL PROGRAM Schools Built, Health Conditions Im- proved, Mob Prevention, Better Relations Generally Nashville, Tenn., (Special to The Broad Ax)—The annual meeting of the Inter-Racial League, a section of the Tennessee Committee of Inter- Racial Cooperation, which was held here on July 12-13, revealed the fact that most encouraging progress in race relations has been made in this State during the past year. The efforts of the Committee have been directed along many lines, chief of which has been that of securing better educational facilities for Ne- grocs. The results reported include $35,000 high schools at Dyersburg and South Pittsburg, $25,000 schools at Brownsville and McMinnville, a $9,000 school at Dickson, and a number of smaller schools. A fine library was secured for, Howard High School, Chattanooga, and an $85,000 recrea- tion park for the colored people of Memphis, The State Board of Health co- operated heartily in the Health Week program. In Hamilton county every school house was visited in this cam- paign, 85 addresses were made and ‘over 15,000 people were reached. At Murfreesboro the Circuit Judge has asked the local Inter-Racial Com- mittee to cooperate with his court in dealing with delinquent colored youth. Local committees are working with county agricultural and home demon- stration agents to promote better farming, marketing and home condi- tions. Last, but by no means of least importance, a mob was foiled and a lynching prevented in a Tennessee town last year by the prompt action of the local committee. The annual meeting was held at thé Tennessee Negro Normal during the ‘summer session and was attended by hundreds of teachers from all parts of the State. It was addressed by a umber of sagen sticetoen of both races, including . P. Claxton, former U. S. Commissioner of Educs- tion, the State Superintendent, and Pdwston, ‘Pot W. J. Hale res W. J. Hale, Presi- dent of the Normal, was re-elected of the Leagfie and Robert E.

C—(Special to “The Broad Ax)—The white peole of many South Carolina communities are co- operating heartily with the colored people in the effort to secure better educational facilities for the children ‘of the latter. At Johnson, S.C, a movement is now on foot to provide a $6,000 six-room Rosenwald School. The Negroes have been raising funds for the purchase of a four-acre site, the Rosenwald Fund will supply $1,600 toward the building, and the balance will be provided from State and county funds and by private subscription. A similar enterprise has just been completed at Batesburg, where a $4,500 school was erected by these cooperating agencies, and the contract has been let for a $6,000 school at Leesville, for which provision has been made in the same way. ‘These are among the most recent illustrations of the friendly and help- ful relations for which the best people of both races ate striving and which inter-racial. committees are doing much to foster throughout the South. To this end a strong state committee has been set up in each Southern State and local committees have been organized in 800 . ounties. PERSONAL NOTES Mrs. Fay Allem and Miss Aldine Dickson were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Sandy W. Trice on Monday at 6438 Eberhart avenue. Mrs. Allen and Miss Dickson left on Tuesday for Los Angeles, Cal’ Mrs. Sandy W. Trice of 6438 Eber- hart avenue returned last Saturday night from Idlewild, Mich. She re- ports having had a good time and that she is well pleased with her new cottage. Mrs. Trice returned to make the trip to Washington, D. C., with Mr. Trice on the Shriner special. Mrs. Fay Allen of Los Angeles, Cal, returned from visiting England, France, Italy and Switzerland. She reports that all the countries were wonderful, but to her, Italy seemed the most interesting. Rome also proved quite wonderful, she having been fortunate enough to visit the Pope and St. Peter's Cathedral, the largest (Catholic) church in the world. She also visited the Vatican and rooms of the Pope, as well as the prison of St. Peter and St. Paul, and the Colosseum where Nero fed the Christians to the lions.. The Cata- combs, where the Christians were burned added to the interest of her visit. It was there that the Christians worshiped, although forbidden to re- main in Rome, and even at this late date one can see the Altars and writ- ing in Italian, Greek and other lan- guages still visible on the stones. Naples was ideal, and Mt. Vesuvius lived up to all expectations, except that one cannot see the lava boiling like Small Vesuvius, where one walks on the crater and looks down into the boiling lava. France has its beau- tiful Riviera running along the Medi- terranean. Paris, of course, is a won- derful city, but seemingly terribly crowded. Switzerland, while a small country, is probably the cleanest coun- try of ail those visited by Mrs. Allen, and the Alps were wonderful. She reports that there are many interesting sights in London, one of which was St. Paul's Cathedral, the second larg- est church in the world. K. K. K.

STUMP, THE OLD TIME REGULAR TRAVELING CORRESPONDENT FOR THE BROAD AX, HAS WITHIN THE PAST WEEK VISITED NORTH CAROLINA AND CAME IN CONTACT WITH ALL OF ITS LEADING COLORED BUSINESS MEN. Durham, N. C.—I don't know what kind of heels you have, but I do know that I am in the state which is called the "tar heel" state and I think this is due to the fact that the people here either have tar heels or tar on their heels. It matters not which it is the result is the same, but let me tell you my people are doing some real business in this state, and before I am through with this letter you will find it out. I want to tell you a few things that have made my religion feel good to me, and to thank God that I belong to this great history making race, and I am seeing the men and women who are making the history. You find me writing to you from Durham, which very name indicates progress, and it is the place for aggressive men and women from all parts of the world. I want to tell you about some of the enterprises here. Have you heard of the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company? Have you heard of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company? If not I want to give you an introduction to them this week and when I am through you will know almost as much as I do. This Bankers' Fire Insurance Company was organized, and charter received July, 1920, and they started in the business writing in February, 1921, and on December 31, 1921 they were operating in North Carolina, Maryland and District of Columbia, but now honey they have gone into Tennessee and Georgia and it doth not yet appear what it shall be or where they shall go, for they are looking for our people and our people are looking for them. The people have bought up the stock, amounting to $150,000, and they have written three million dollars worth of business and they continue to write every day. This closes out the question of insurance for our people, for there are many companies that will not insure our property and household goods, and we are doing it now. I take off my hat to the company. They are going to tell you something soon. The officers of the company are W. G. Pearson, president; C. C. Spaulding, first vice-president; A. M. Moore, second vice-president; W. Gonez, secretary; J. M. Avery, treasurer; M. A. Goins, assistant secretary. Put these together and add A. J. Strong, E. R. Merrick and R. L. McDougald, and you have the executive committee. Now I am sure you want to know who are the directors? Since you want to know I will have to tell you that they are W. G. Pearson, C. C. Spaulding, A. M. Moore, J. M. Avery, E. W. Smith, J. S. Thompson, J. A. Tinsley, W. Gomez, E. R. Merrick, Ira T. Bryant, R. L. McDougald, A. J. Strong, G. A. Edwards, W. M. Rich, J. C. Scarborough, J. G. Banton, M. A. Goins, J. H. Ridley, M. C. Clark I had the pleasure of going in the office, of seeing the Directors in session and meeting one more business man of our race and that is that fellow Gomez. I think he came into this world via New York, and got his foundation right there which was head culture and business sense. Some years ago he came down to this city to get into the North Carolina Mutual and when this company was organized they decided that he was just the man to put things over and he has been doing it ever since. They had a great meeting here, and there were some brainy men, some men of wealth. Doc. as, lawyers, college presidents, bankers and other kind of business men are connected with this company, and I am proud that I had the pleasure of finding this great institution among our people. Some of us don't know what the others are doing, and there are many agencies at work to give us good places in this world, and we must do our own part. When I took my pen in hand to write to you last week, I had just witnessed the passing out of the grand chancellor of Georgia, Prof. G. R. Hutto of Brunswick, and then I got busy and got out of that town. I was not running from death, but I just felt better away. I rode and rode until I got to Henderson, N. C., got off there made it to Durham, back to Kittrell, and then Sunday morning President G. A. Edwards, got together his automobile car carriage and rode me back to Durham, where we made some few remarks, and started back. I have heard of them horses getting unruly and getting out of reach, but I never experienced it before. We were just riding along, making curves which were just like snakes, when this old horse jumped out of the road, started up a steep hill, and was making to a tree as if it would destroy this piece of nature, but Prof. Edwards started him back down the hill, and then an attempt was made to turn us over, but I held her down, and we are yet alive. Thank God for that. From Kittrell Dean Burford, and Dean Valentine toted me into Raleigh where the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias were to meet and they toted me right on over to the Shaw University where they were holding a summer school. I had been invited by the head of this summer school, Prof. Bias to be the guest of the school and Berry O'Kelly, and I accepted, hence I was sent right on to the home of Prof. Logan where I had fine quarters. But let me tell you there were a few teachers at this summer school, just 505 and all good people: I was so glad to see them, to note how they were taking in more brains to spill out to the little children. This is under the state and up to right now, I looked and looked, and I just had to say "Praise God." It is wonderful to see how many educated people are together this summer everywhere. I thought that when a fellow once got graduated he did not have to go to school no more, but he had all the knowledge in his head. They tell me that is just where I was a fool. I could not understand why when you graduate from a college where they can get hold of anything else to go in your heaul, but they are doing what they called "Keeping up." The Grand Lodge opened and there is a man at the head of it Dr. J. W. Jones, of Winston-Salem, N. C., and one of the leading physicians in this country. He is a man every inch of him, and a scholar to match. He is a recognized leader of men, and it just takes them two days to do all the business they have to do, and they have a lot of it, then get themselves together and beat it back home. It is because they are trained men. I had the pleasure of meeting Prof. J. M. Avery, who is what they call the Master of Exchequer, and he is one of the best trained men of this race or my race. He is just a man and a man of the hour. Believe me when I tell you there was a great grand lodge, and I had the pleasure of riding around with Berry O'Kelly, one of the greatest men in North Carolina, and a man with great influence and personal magnetism. He can do more with the white folks and other folks than any other man of my race, and then he is not a pauper, for just last Saturday, he gave a man a check for $55,000 in payment for some property, and this was cash, and it did not take all the money he had in bank. He owns city property, farms, buildings in the city of Raleigh, post-master of Method, and he himself, out of his own money erected a fine brick three-story building for the Berry O'Kelly industrial school at Method, and who blame them for naming the school for him? If I ever become a father I would name my son for him for he is a great man. Now here I am in this great building, erected by the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, a real old line company with a business of up in the millions of dollars, and still increasing. The building which is a seven-story building costing $250,000 is called the home of the company, and there is one floor occupied by the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company. I tell you they pay their claims and pay them promptly, because they have the money with which to do it. The officers of this company are: A. M. Moore, M.D., president; J. M. Avery, vice-president; C. C. Spaulding, secretary-treasurer; E. R. Merrick, assistant secretary; Clyde Donnell, medical director; W. J. Kennedy, assistant secretary; A. J. Clement, director; J. L. Wheeler, director. I will not be able to tell you about the bank, and then there is Charles C. Amey, who is in the hosiery manufacturing business, and he is one of the finest in this country. I wish you could just see him. I would suggest that if you are in need of them sox and stocking businesses you would write to him at Durham. I will have to bring this letter to a stop. Look out for the next one. Get ready for the National Baptist convention, Los Angeles, Cal., September 6. I will be there will you? Charles E. Stump. CHICAGO, ILL. SATURDAY, JULY 29. 1922 M. B.

Garment Serves for Bath Robe but Can Be Used for Room Gown— Hand-Made Dress and Cape to Match. These are traveling days for everybody. But how to do the journeying without all the trunks and bags and hat boxes in the world is one of those problems not so easy to solve. The woman who starts off on her summer vacation burdened with too many dress and hat carriers is bound to have some unhappy moments before she has finished her holidays. She will be far wiser, states a fashion writer in the New York Times, to study out her needs before she starts away and indulge right from the start in the process of elimination. She can be well dressed in a small space just as efficiently as she can by taking all the room in her vicinity. It is only necessary to take the right things and the most foldable things along with her. There are plenty of pretty clothes that really have no place in a traveler's luggage unless that traveler is equipped with a maid or two and pressing facilities galore. Those dresses might just as well remain at home when the average woman is doing her tripping, for they will be of little or no use to her once she has wrested their tangled meshes from the crowded masses of her trunk. Ruffles will not withstand packing unless they are coaxed back to life through the expenditure of much time and energy. And who wants to expend these valuable possessions when off for a summer splurge? On the other hand, there are so many sorts of clothes, especially among the present styles, that seem fitted by nature to go traveling. They telescope themselves without any assistance, and they come out from the confines of tightly packed luggage looking their own charming selves. Plan for Comfort Naturally, these are the frocks to be chosen for the summer, if one is planning with the least foresight and care for one's ultimate comfort. All of the crepe and chiffon dresses, which are so important a part of the present summer wardrobe, fold into small spaces with the greatest of ease and grace. In the first place, they are cut along such straight and simple lines that they fairly beg to be packed just to show how particularly well they can stand the strain. A woman may fold them just as she would lay together a piece of straight material, with no more fear that the wrinkles will be noticeable when the dress is dragged from the trunk. The silken and chiffon materials are woven with such great art and care that they take to packing with no more terror than if they were meant for that alone. In other words, they have such body and flexibility that they need fear no wrinkles or permanent folds, and the owner need fear none for them. She is safe when she keeps to these materials, for they are so adaptable that they will stand her in good stead no matter what demands may be made upon them. There is much in the way the gowns are cut. The simpler they are the better. For if there is too much draping about them, then they are let in for extra creasings, which may not be so good after much traveling about. But the straight lines fold into small places so naturally that they emerge without showing the traces of packing. Of course, every woman needs a boudou wrap of some sort wherever THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY The Klimono of Printed Crepe That Will Serve Many Purposes After It Has Been Extracted From the Packing Case. she is going or whatever she is doing. Not only will it serve for a bath robe, but it can be used for a room gown as well. Near Calico Design. The material from which it has been made is of those crepes printed in a fine pattern. This one happens to be red and white in almost a calico Famous Statue. The Apollo Belvedere, supposed to have been carried in 279 B. C., was found in 1003, bought by Julius II and placed in the Vatican. The name of the sculptor is not known. The marble is presumably a copy from a bronze. design. It is cut and designed so that it covers the person, and at the same time its material is cool and pleasant to the touch even on the hottest of summer days. It has been lined with a red China silk, and that lining is carried out at the front so that it forms a sort of revers all the way to the foot of the garment. This facing then continues throughout the garment, so that it helps to give form and substance to the thing and, at the same time, adds so little extra weight and bulk that it is scarcely appreciable. At the places where the gown splits and opens the red lining can be seen through the interstices, and that alone tends to give a trimmed, gala appearance which is most attractive and which breaks the general design of the all-over pattern in an interesting manner. One never knows until one owns a garment of this sort—midway between the wrapper and the housegown—what a comfort it can be on a trip. Something of this sort comes to mean com- I Hand-Made Silk Dress With Cape to Match and Collapsible Hat Designed to Fold Easily into Summer Baggage. fort in a way nothing else could. Every time the owner puts it on she will thank a kind Providence for having led her to the decision that brought that particular article of apparel into her wardrobe. The hand-made dress and cape to match is the sort of thing that is born for packing. The fabric is a heavy canton crepe, and the dress is made along the straightest of lines. There are lines of hestmishting and drawn work for its trimming, and there is not a frill or bellow that can suffer from packing. Anyone who has owned one of these frocks knows how small a place they take up when folded together, and how satisfactory they are through many months of wear and tear. Cape of Same Material. This dress has a cape made of the same material and lined with a lightweight crepe de chine. It may be worn with this dress or with others as a light summer evening wrap, and, for that reason, it serves a place in the traveler's wardrobe which cannot easily be taken by any other sort of garment. Presumably the reader has worn a suit while traveling, and has carried an extra heavy wrap over her arm, but neither the suitcoat nor the outer wrap is going to serve for evening demands with which she will be confronted, no matter where she goes. But this wrap can be folded into the smallest of spaces and taken forth on many occasions. Without it a woman would be quite at a loss and if she attempted to pack anything with more weight and body and trimming then she would find herself forced into adding extra luggage to accommodate the extra frills. Keep the cape simple and the dress simple and half of the traveling battle is fought. And, if the reader follows the scheme, she will have a silk suit which can always be worn for afternoon, often for evening, and sometimes in the morning hours. Moreover, silk is cool, it can stand wet weather and when a colder day makes its appearance the owner can still look well in a silk dress under her heavier coat. There is no angle from which a dress of this character is not satisfactory, and this season to be right in the height of style it is desirable to have it made of that cafe al lat color which has taken the place of gray in smart circles. It is a color which goes with most everything and which is becoming to many types. Avoid Extra Hat Box Would Extra Hair Box. By avoiding the extra hat box, the traveler may save herself all sorts of worry and bother and porter fees. For, with only one bag, she can, in an emergency, drag herself and it around, but with two the situation becomes hopeless. She will find when she starts to shop that there are all sorts of little and becoming hats that can be folded along with dresses as flat as can be, and which will still emerge with none of that mashed appearance. She will live to thank herself for providing herself with this sort of hat instead of the stiffer variety which must be cared for so particularly and which, even then, is apt to come forth after a train or boat trip with that sad and drooping appearance for which there is no salvation. There are little woolen hats done in bright and interesting colors. Some are made of draped ribbons, and sturdy ones of blocked felt that mash into small places with the greatest agility and come forth to surprise one by their well-groomed look.

Sounds can generally be heard much farther by night than oy day; some- times ten or even twenty times as far. One reason is that the air at night contains, as a rule, few eddies and other local distrubances, such as break up the sound waves by day. More over, on calm, clear nights the verti- cal distribution of temperature near the earth is often the reverse of that occurring by day, and has the effect of bending the sound waves downward instead of upward. win Grow in Tree.
