ROSENBERG, DEMO STEE OF THE SAND OF CHICAGO salesmen for the other lamp shade concerns would call on the buyers of the lamp shade departments in the large department stores and inform them that the beautiful lamp shades which were sold by the International Lamp Manufacturing Corporation were made by colored help and that none of the big stores should buy their goods and the result was that Mr. Rosenberg lost thousands and thousands of dollars worth of business each year through race prejudice against the colored people but he did not and would not discharge his colored help, and as the final result of his determination to stand by his colored help all of the large lamp shade manufacturing concerns in this city are today following in the footsteps of Mr. Rosenberg and are now employing hundreds of colored men and women in bringing forth their products.

ALLEN ATTACKS KLAN, CATHOLICS IN SAME BREATH Says That Bigotry Will Breed Civil War Great Bend, Kan.—One pistol shot could produce a state of civil war in Kansas similar to that in Ireland, according to Gov. Henry J. Allen, who continued his attacks on the Ku Klux Klan here Tuesday. His speech was a part of a series of political addresses, but the latter portion of it was devoted to a scathing denunciation of religious bigotry and community hatred. The governor denounced certain types of Catholics and members of the Klan in the same breath, telling them they should both be ashamed of themselves. premacy and to save us from the Catholic church,' you ought to be ashamed; honestly, you ought to be ashamed. Pointing out that he was not condemning the klan from any personal beliefs or prejudices, the executive said, "I am not against your organization because you don't like the Catholic church. "I am not a Catholic. I am a Methodist and a thirty-second degree Mason and a Knight Templar. I belong to all of these organizations.

THE EFFICIENT AND COURTEOUS TREATMENT ACCORDED THE PUBLIC BY COUNTY TREASURER P. J. C A R R MAKES TAX PAYING ALMOST A PLEASURE. That the above quoted statement is literally true may be known from the following extracts from a speech recently delivered by Mr. Carr before the Rotary Club of PAYING ALMOST A PLEASURE. "I immediately after I was appointed to office," said Mr. Carr, "it became apparent that the comparatively few sub-stations that had been located by my predecessors were inadequate and today I may point with pride to the fact that more than one hundred of these sub-stations, authorized by me, and which are located in state and national banks in all parts of Cook County, are making it possible for property owners to pay their bills close to their homes and thus avoid the serious inconveniences and loss of time incurred by thronging the County Treasurer's office, where formerly thousands of taxpayers gathered during the rush period in the month of April." HON. JAMES Democratic Candidate for Hon. James M. Dailey, democratic candidate for Sheriff has been a resident for forty years of the Fourth ward (now the eleventh). He has served his ward for three terms as alderman and served the people of the county for six years as trustee of the Sanitary District of Chicago. Mr. Dailey has always taken an --- "The location of these sub-stations had met with the approval of the thousandus of taxpayers who live in the outlying districts of Chicago and Cook County and who, by the operation of this system were saved carfare and, in many instances, a day's pay. The plan had been commended also by all of the newspapers and civic organs of the entire county. "In furtherance of this policy I am contemplating, if elected, a system by which every taxpayer may pay his taxes at a convenient sub-station located in banks, drug stores and other suitable places, so that he may have the same facilities that are now accorded those who pay gas and electric light bills in innumerable sub-stations throughout the City and County. However, for this service there will be no extra charge of any kind. This system, which I believe is feasible, will do away with every possible inconvenience, occasioned by present methods. "A great number of women, accompanied by children, daily visit the County Treasurer's office and for their benefit and convenience I have set aside a portion of my office for a re active part in all civic affairs and has at all times shown a broad minded, tolerant spirit as to religion and race and from present indications his election as sheriff of Cook County on November 7th is positively assured. Mr. Dailey declares that he will only seek and hold one office at one time-Adv. THE BROAD AX, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1922 HORACE WADE, THE NOTED YOUNG NEWSPAPER CORRESPONDENT, LATELY ENJOYED A PLEASANT INTERVIEW WITH HON. P. J. CARR, DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR TREASURER OF COOK COUNTY Horace Wade, the world's youngest reporter, likes County Treasurer P. J. Carr whom he interviewed the other day for the Chicago American. In Horace's interesting account we read: "Believe me, Pat surely is the Cat's Cuffs." From newsboy he has fought upward, his face turned toward the sky, until now he holds the official office of County Treasurer. "What will he be in days yet to come? President? Here's hoping sol For Pat is the finest, the most tireless, indefatigable worker I have ever met—fact is, I ever expect to meet! And why? Because he is 100 per cent for the people, because he has the interest of the common folk at heart, because he has known what it is to labor and thus is working with untiring zest for the working man. That's Pat-Carr's platform, linked together with honesty, straightforwardness and integrity. "And—what's that? What does this man look like who stands for such high, splendid principles? I'll tell you! Eyes gray as the dull, overladen skies above, yet calm and unflinching as those of a judge. His hair is just turning the same color like the creeping of twilight and brushed neatly to the right side. His features are sharply chiseled; he has a mouth of unusual power and character and a chin that betrays a bulldog tenacity of purpose that brooks no interference. His sensitive noirstils advertise a vast fund of vitality held in ready reserve. He has an optimistic spirit, general intelligence regarding men and measures, distinctive personality, industry, "A Bureau of Information, in charge of efficient clerks, who are conversant with foreign languages, has been of tremendous value to that large section of our citizenship which is of foreign descent. "I have also caused to be established a department in charge of a competent real estate expert where all requests for tax bills may be presented and receive immediate attention.

He is an active member of the Knights of Pythias, president of clearness and accuracy in statement and enterprise and initiative, all tempered with uprighteousness, charity and mental breadth. "What trait of character must a politician possess?" "We sat facing each other in his chambers at the County Building when I fired my first shot.

The world needs a man who can greet all troubles with a cheerful grin and hearty, hand-shake, but" as he leveled an accusing finger at me, "It can't stand a frowner. Have you noticed how many friends a smiler has and how few are chalked up for the frowner." And these words rushed across my brain as he finished speaking: "Laugh and the world laughs with you, "Ah, Horace," then he went on, "We all have troubles—let's smile at them, or this sad old earth borrows its earth, and we all have troubles of our own." He repeated it several times to himself while I sat by in a deep reverie.

Democratic Candidate for Re-Election as Judge of the Probate Court of Cook County. Hon. Henry Horner, whose honest and fair name has become a household word in every home in this city and throughout Cook County, was elected Judge of the Probate Court of Cook County in 1914, and re-elected in 1918 and during those eight years he has covered himself with great distinction and honor for he has conducted all of the affairs in connection with his official duties open and above board and the humblest citizen, black or white, rich or poor, always receives justice in his court and the great mass of the voters are learning how to reward their faithful and honest public servants. It simply means that his Honor Judge Henry Horner will on Tuesday, November 7, be elected for the third time, judge of the Probate Court of Cook County. The Horner family, for whom Judge Horner was named, rank among the oldest families bearing that name in this city. The original Henry Horner came to America in 1840, and attracted by the stories of the great West, came to Chicago in 1842. It took a bold spirit to decide to stay in Chicago at that time. Only the most far-sighted men could believe in Chicago's future as Chicago looked in those days. The original Horner looked beyond the malaria swamps that then surrounded the infant city. He had the dream that some day a great metropolis would rise on the shores of Lake Michigan, and he never lost his confidence in his judgment. He started the grocery business that bears his name. By thrift and fair dealing, the firm had already risen to the highest place in the grocery trade when the great fire of 1871 destroyed it all. The man who had left Europe to give his family a better chance was not discouraged by the fire. He knew that Chicago was bound to rise again and he started at once to mend his lost fortune. The grocery firm of Henry Horner & Company rose out of the ashes. It prospered more than its founder ever dreamed. The Horner name became famous all over the United States. No business was more highly regarded throughout the growing West. Judge Horner, the Probate Judge was born in 1878. He went to school in what is now the Loop. He completed his law education at the Chicago University and Chicago Kent College of Law and served an apprenticeship in some of the leading law offices of Chicago. His life brought him into touch with every element of people who comprise a city like Chicago. Very few men have had the chance or the inclination to take part in so many public-spirited movements as Judge Horner. He is a member of the Illinois State and Chicago Bar associations and of many Chicago clubs and societies. Judge Horner's record for the eight years past has brought him into great prominence; he is now considered the leading Probate Judge of the United States. His advice in Probate matters is sought by law makers of many states. He has given largely of his time to an effort to make the Probate Court of still more service to the people. On his own time and at his own expense, he has prepared laws to simplify the administration of estates and to make the work simpler and more speedy. He has appeared before the Legislature on many occasions to have these suggestions adopted into law. The fact that the lawyers of Chicago by a vote of more than four to one have chosen his as Probate Judge should be deeply considered by the voters of this County. The lawyers are those who appear before him from day to day. The Chicago Bar is composed of men of every station in life, of every shade of thought, of every religious or non-religious conviction. Surely, the judgment of such men should be considered by the thinking people of Cook County. In conclusion, the people residing in this city and county have already made up their minds to let well enough alone, and on Tuesday, November 7, for the third time, the vast majority of them will assist to relect him Judge of the Probate Court of Cook County. 86 CLARE HON. ROBERT M. SWEITZER Hon. Robert M. Sweitzer, the highly honorable and the most proficient County Clerk that Cook county has ever had, who will be reelected for the third time to his present responsible position on Tuesday, November 7, is a native of this great and wonderful city, first seeing the light of day on May 10, 1868. His parents were John Martin and Mrs. Sarah (Lanning) Sweitzer, who were among the oldest and most highly respected citizens of Chicago Mr. Sweitzer received his early education in the city of his birth, graduating from its higher branches with the usual honors. As he approached manhood he entered St. Patrick's Commercial Academy and after diligently applying himself to his studies for some years he emerged from it in 1884 well fortified or equipped to follow a commercial pursuit, and shortly after doing so he became connected with James H. Walker and Company, wholesale dry goods merchants, and he held a responsible position with that firm for seven years, or until it failed in 1893. Then he became connected with the wholesale dry goods house of John V. Farwell and Co., November 15, 1893 and remained with the old established and well known house until December 1, 1910, and if it had not been for the fact that he was elected Cook County Clerk in the last mentioned year he would still be holding down a high position with that firm. Mr. Swetzer is extremely popular among the large circle of loyal and steadfast friends, for he thoroughly understands in his quiet and soft manner how to draw men or friends to him and not to drive them away from him. As an evidence of this fact, for years he has been the head director of the Illinois Commercial Men's Association and Illinois Traveling Men's Health Association, and for more than twenty-five years he has been chairman of the executive committee of the Alumni Association of St. Patrick's Commercial Association; he is also a prominent member of the Illinois Athletic Club, the Iroquois Club, Knights of Columbus, Royal League, Elks, Edgebrook Country The Most Honored and Painstaking Judge of the Probate Court That Cook County Has Ever Had, and He Will Be Re-elected to His Present Exalted Position On Tuesday, November 7. Club and of several other clubs and In 1904 Mr. Sweitzer was happily united in marriage to Miss Alice Kervil. They are the proud parents of three children two daughters and one son, Robert M., Jr., and reside at 2958 W. Jackson Boulevard, in the old 13th ward. For many years Mr. Sweitzer has been a power in the Democratic party of the west side and he has assisted to make and unmake city, county and state officials. Even assisting to make Presidents of the United States for as one of the delegates to the Democratic National Convention held in San Francisco, Cal., in 1920 he led off in the fight to prevent the re-nomination of President Woodrow Wilson, and any of his henchmen from walking away with the crown of glory. For a long time he was a member of the Democratic State Committee of Illinois. He was a delegate at large to the Baltimore convention in 1912 and assisted the late Roger C Sullivan to swing the forty-eight delegates in that convention from this state from the late Champ Clark to Hon. Woodrow Wilson, thereby securing his nomination to the presidency of the United States. The doors on Mr. Sweitzer's inner office always swing both ways, and they stand wide open during business hours and the humblest citizens, both Black and White, experience no trouble in approaching him in order to state or transact their business with him. There is one thing which can be said to the everlasting credit of Mr. Sweitzer, namely, that he is absolutely free from race prejudice and in October, 1914, he made the speech of his life at the laying of the corner stone of the New Eighth Regiment Armory, where he freely mingled with the Colored people. Shortly after that event he presented Col. Franklin A. Denison with a fine and very expensive mahogany writing desk which still remains in the rooms of the Eighth Regiment Armory. There is not the slightest question about the re-election of Mr. Sweitzer for clerk of Cook county. sce lh .

Lately Mr. Lawley Secured the Appointment of Miss Gertrude Brown, a Bright and Intelligent Young Colored Woman to a Position in the Rooms of the Board of Review of Cook County. Hon. James H. Lawley, Republican candidate for re-election as one of the Trustees of the Sanitary District of Chicago, was ushered in this grand old world right here in the great city of Chicago in 1876, and in every sense of the word he is a genuine Chicagoan, receiving his education in its public schools, later on graduating with high honors from the Illinois College of Law. For five terms, or ten years, he was one of the very valuable members of the City Council from the Fourteenth Ward, and as a member of that body his wise counsel was constantly sought by the other members of the city legislative body. He was for a long time one of the very strong and influential members of the finance, gas, oil and electric light committees of the City Council. He always stood for honesty and efficiency in the administration of municipal affairs. It was through Alderman Lawley's efforts that modern up-to-date business methods were introduced into city affairs in the preparations of the budget. He also caused to be introduced modern bookkeeping and accounting methods. He has always received the unqualified endorsement of civic bodies and has been praised by the press for securing budget reform. He has always been accustomed to handling big problems as a result of his vast experience on the various important committees of the City Coun- M. B.

At the Appointment of Miss Gert- Intelligent Young Colored Wom- oms of the Board of Review of cil, and in that work he was often brought in close contact with his pres- ent position as one of the Trustees of the Sanitary District of Chicago. At the election in November, 1916, he was chosen one of the Trustees of that district and in that position he is more than making good at every inch of the road. He is chairman of its finance committee which is the most important committee in connection with the Sanitary District of Chicago. Mr. Lawley is one of the most popular public officials in Cook county for he always greets everyone with an extremely pleasant smile and with a warm grasp of the hand and at all times he conducts himself like a high class gentleman and the voters in this city and county will make no mistake in re-electing Mr. Lawley to his present position on Tuesday, November 7, for at all times in the past he has proved himself to be an honest and faithful public servant. For many years he has been very prominent in benevolent and fraternal work. He is an honored member of the Phi Alpha Delta League fraternity, Garden City Lodge A. F. and A. M., York Chapter, 148 R. A. M., Columbia Commandery No. 63, Medinah Temple A. A. C. N. M., S. Knights of Pythias, Loyal Order of Moose, National Union, and fraternal Order of Eagles. All of the above is sufficient proof that Brother Lawley continues to travel east on the royal masonic road.

He, however, supported the Dyer Bill loyally from the beginning and was of great assistance in securing its passage by the House.

The colored voters throughout the country should assert their manhood and defeat those congressmen who failed to stand up on the side of right and justice.—Editor. STEPHEN FOSTER By G. D. O'Neill About a hundred years ago, on July 4, 1826, Stephen Foster opened his eyes upon a beautiful and troubled nation; for at that time part of the people of the United States were free and part were in chains; and each half of the nation misunderstood and mistrusted the other half. Stephen was a frail Pennsylvania boy. As he grew up, there developed in him a strong and intense love for music and a deep sympathy for the American Negro. It is said of him that, when he was seven years old, he entered a shop one day and, spying a flagolet, picket it up and began to experiment with it. Stephen had never seen one before, but in a few minutes he was able to play upon it a number of well-known simple tunes. When Stephen was sixteen, he published his first song, "Open Thy Lattice, Love." But about this time he became interested in his Negro brothers. He had often heard colored men and women sing, and their beautiful voices filled his soul with a quick response; so he began to study their dialect and their characteristic melodies. When he was twenty-one he wrote "Old Uncle Ned," and within a very short time afterwards, "Old Black Joe," "My Old Kentucky Home" and "Old Folks at Home"—this "Way Down Upon the Swanee River" as it is also called, is claimed to be the most popular song ever written. Many other of his songs have been translated into every language of Europe, and have found their way even into Asia and Africa. Through Stephen Foster, who is known today as America's greatest balladist, Negro music was ennobled. Almost every country on earth, especially the older nations, has its "folk songs." These Negro melodies are America's contribution and are considered by many musicians to be the best music that this country has produced.

IRELAND The Most Popular German-American Republican in This City or Cook County Who Will Be Re-Elected One of the Trustees of the Sanitary District of Chicago on Tuesday, November 7. Both Men and Women Can Vote for Him. Hon. Matt. A. Mueller, Republican candidate for re-election as one of the Trustees of the Sanitary District of Chicago, is one of the most popular German-Americans in this city or country and needs no long introduction to the great army of readers of this newspaper. He was born on the 12th day of December, 1865, in Germany, arriving in this country in the spring of 1881, located at Chester, Randolph County, Illinois, where he worked on a farm for two years; removing to Chicago on May 1, 1883, he located in the same district where he now resides at 4917 South Loomis street. Being undaunted, he was still a strong factor and a prominent leader of the Republican party on the south-west side, and he successfully organized the Lake Building Material Co. of which he was President for three years; disposing of his interest in that company, he successfully engaged in the Real Estate business under the firm name of Matt. A. Mueller and Company, located at 5047 S. Ashland avenue. At the present time Mr. Mueller, in president of the Greune-Mueller Coal Company. Mr. and Mrs. Mueller are the proud and happy parents of two bright and For some years he worked for the Jones and Siles Packing Co., the Boyd and Lunham Packing Co., and Swift and Co., until 1902. At that time he was appointed Real Estate Deputy, in the Board of Review, serving in that capacity until April 1, 1909. Then he plunged into politics in dead earnest, for at the April election in 1909, he was elected to the City Council from the old fighting 29th ward. He was re-elected Alderman from the same ward in 1911, winning 67 by only twenty votes; but he was deprived of his seat by a strong partisan vote in the City Council. HON. ANTON J. CERMAK HON. ANTON J. CERMAK Many factors are combining to make it more than likely that Alderman A. J. Cermak will be elected president and member of the incoming Board of County Commissioners. To begin with, his public service record invites confidence, because, at a time when economy is the watchword in public affairs, he sponsored gigantic public improvements in such a way that taxpayers were not compelled to bear the expense. In addition to this, his world-known stand on personal liberty has made him the beneficiary of thousands of votes from people who, while believing in temperance, feel that the Volstead Act was not the proper method of securing it—and who point to the increase in crime and insanity statistics since prohibition took effect as proof that Alderman Cermak's City Council resolution in favor of beer and light wines for home consumption was wisely and considerately conceived. The County Board, in addition to requiring capable executive direction. ```markdown ``` HON. ANTON J. CERMAK Member of the City Council, from the Old 12th of Its Finance Committee and Democratic President of the Board of Commissioners or in Case of His Election He Has Given His W That He Will Appoint Some Intelligent Women at Nurses in the County Hospital. Member of the City Council, from the Old 12th Ward. Member of Its Finance Committee and Democratic Candidate for President of the Board of Commissioners of Cook County in Case of His Election He Has Given His Word and Honor That He Will Appoint Some Intelligent Young Colored Women as Nurses in the County Hospital. Being undaunted, he was still a strong factor and a prominent leader of the Republican party on the southwest side, and he successfully organized the Lake Building Material Co. of which he was President for three years; disposing of his interest in that company, he successfully engaged in the Real Estate business under the firm name of Matt. A. Mueller and Company, located at 5047 S. Ashland avenue. At the present time Mr. Mueller, is president of the Greune-Mueller Coal Company. Mr. and Mrs. Mueller are the proud and happy parents of two bright and lovely children. He is one of the highest Masons in this country, being connected with all the high Masonic bodies in Chicago. He is also an honored member of the Modern Woodmen, National Union and the Plattdeutschen Gilden, of which he has been Grand Treasurer for years. Mr. Mueller like his warm friend Hon. James H. Lawley, has always been true blue in his friendship for decent and worthy colored people and every colored person residing in this city and county will record their votes in favor of their re-election Tuesday November 7th. J. CERMAK for which Alderman Cermak is qualified by virtue of his standing in the realty business, has charge of great charitable institutions, like the Cook County Hospital, the Oak Forest Infirmary, the Tuberculosis Sanitarium and many others. Here again Alderman Cermak is exceptionally qualified, for he is president of a large charitable organization and is on the finance committee of another building a magnificent hospital. The growing importance of forest preserve finds an enthusiastic supporter in Alderman Cermak, whose interest in athletics is attested by the fact that he introduced the ordinance creating an athletic commission (of which he is a member) and that he has built a large baseball park. Therefore, no matter what angle the Board of County Commissioners is considered from, it is conceded that Alderman Cermak is ideally qualified for the office of President and Member. At the present time there seems to be no question about his election on Tuesday. Nov. 7. [Name] from the Old 12th Ward. Member and Democratic Candidate for Commissioners of Cook County; has Given His Word and Honor the Intelligent Young Colored County Hospital. [Name] M. Hon. John F. Devine, Republican candidate for re-election for Clerk of the Probate Court of Cook county has already saved the taxpayers $139,865,000, which is the most unique record ever made in this county by any public official during the first three years of his present term as Clerk of the Probate Court, he made a profit of $139,865,000 for the taxpayers of this county over and above all expenses. The operation of the usual public office in Cook County generally means a heavy charge upon the taxpayers. In these days of increasing taxes, the voters can appreciate a public official who makes a large profit over and above the expenses of his office. The profit so made helps to make up in part the deficit in other offices and thereby decreases in part the tax burden and ultimately the rent burden of every voter in Cook County. This profit was made by Mr. Devine by doing the largest amount of work ever done in the office with the smallest proportionate amount of help. He effected economies without decreasing efficiency. He increased efficiency without increase of cost. His every move was one of a real business man in charge of a business office. On the other hand he did not forget that his office is one in which widows and orphans are most vitally interested. He devised new safeguards to protect them against dishonesty or looting of estates. His heart is as big as his brain. A vote on November 7, for him whose name appears on the ballot as the Republican candidate for the Clerk of the Probate Court, means an assurance and appreciation of efficiency and economy in public office. He solicits your support on his past record. CHARLES E. STUMP, THE REGULAR OLD TIME TRAVELING CORRESPONDENT FOR THE BROAD AX, IS TRAMPING AROUND, AWAY DOWN IN TEXAS, AND HAVING A GOOD TIME. Yokoun, Texas. — What do you think of this world now? What is going to happen in the special session of Congress which is to be called right after the election? Which way are the parties looking? Will the republicans have strength and manhood enough to pass the Dyer bill? Perhaps you are ready to say that I am the most questioning asking man in the country, but you say what you want to say about me and I will think what I want to think about you, and the world will move right along just the same, and if you don't care what you say about it, you will be ready to say that this old man is doing some moving with the world. I told you about the time I have spent in the Park Sanitarium, Guthrie, Oklahoma. Now I have been discharged from that place, and now I am headed for another part of the world, but I am not yet well, but hope some day that I will be myself. I want to talk to you this week. I was in Guthrie, as you know, and while there I had the pleasure of taking a trip out to Langston University, and there I saw the great things being out there for the education of my people. At the head of the school is a real man, Prof. John Marquiss, who is well trained and a high class sch I man. He is a man who is doing something and something worth while. It is only a question of a short time when this school will take its place at the head of its class, and all because the, have had a school man at the head. Many are the improvements that have been made under this master and are still being made, and he is not making any noise about it. They have one of the best laundries in the country, one of the best presidents, and then they are now erecting a gymnasium that will rank with the best, and other things in proportion are being done there, and believe me they are doing some real high class college work, and when you come out there you will be prepared for any work at Yale, Harvard, Columbia, University of Chicago or any of the other higher institutions. I spent a night with the educator, and returned to Guthrie, and then with the result I have mentioned. Perhaps you want to know all the things I have done and all the places I have been and this would be almost impossible, but I will tell you that I am getting ready for St. Louis, and I have a letter from Poro College, stating my room will be ready, and they will meet me at the stable with one of them fine automobile cars carriages, and see that I am cared for during the session of the National Baptist convention. God be thanked for this. A trip was made to Fort Worth, Cameron, and now I am right here in this town, and in company with Bishop William Decker Johnson, of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, who is a worker, and is doing much in this part of the country for our people. I have told you about this leader before, for he is truly a leader, and has made his way from the ground floor up to the top, and now he is doing things. He has on hand a great program for the uplift of our people, from an educational viewpoint. Bishop Johnson is not a college graduate, but he is a man who has spent sleepless nights in feeding his mind, in taking in, until today he is one of the best posted men, and one of the scholarly men of this race of ours and any other race. I am proud to say that he is a student today, although he is a bishop in his church, and this bishop business is a lifetime job. When you get so you can't go it, then you get a pension. In his address before the conference here he said some real good things, and I wish that I could just give you the whole address. I will give you just a few lines of some of the things he said. His subject was "It's Up to You." Now, then, he said: "In taking an inventory of the classes of people who come to church we find two kinds or groups and one major group. The first group is the class that comes to church by force of their own spiritual life. Any preacher can read a hymn in any service, whether Sunday or Monday is precious to them. They may be compared to the Old Guard who stays in the field until the war is ended, regardless to who leads or who follows; rain or shine, they come. Thick or thin they hold the fort, under bright sides and under threatening clouds they stay on the hiring line. "The next group is made up of the class who comes from a sense of duty. They may not enjoy the preaching and may not like the preacher, but they do believe in religion, and long after the preacher has failed to interest them they still come to church from a sense of loyalty. It behaves the preacher and the Christian worker then, that more than any other class Information has just reached me that John R. Hawkins, Jr., the son of the secretary of the A. M. E. Church, and I mean by that the financial secretary, has passed into the Great Beyond, and just in the youth of life. Just entering a business career. But he was one of the young men of this race of ours who faced death for Old Glory. He went into the army of his own free will, thinking that it was his duty, which it was to defend his flag. He was in the artillery, and handled the seventy-fives in France. He helped to put the Germans to flight, returned to his country broken in health and depressed in mind, at the treatment which he had received at the hands of prejudice. He has folded his arms and gone to his eternal rest. I extend sympathy to the father and mother and sister, who remain here, to await their summons to join him some day. He was a brilliant young man, and was doing a big real estate business in Chicago. Weep not, dear father, mother and sister, for there will some day be a family reunion and you will be united to separate no more. John has just gone on ahead of you. I will have to bring this letter to a stop, because I am saying so much this week. The Baptists of Arkansas are going to hold their convention in a few days. The meeting will be held in Pine Bluff. There they are going to elect a successor to Dr. E. C. Morris, for he was president of the convention and had been for many years. He was chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Arkansas Baptist college, and there are some other things to take place I will tell you about in another letter. God bless you. Write to me care A. M.

JUDGE ENJOINS MAYFIELD'S NAME ON TEXAS BALLOT Corsicana, Tex.-A temporary injunction restraining Secretary of State Staples from certifying; the name of Earle B.

Blackman of the Seventy-seventh Judicial District at Fairfield last Saturday afternoon. IMPROVES SLOWLY Mrs. Anna Northington of 2916 State street, is still at Provident Hospital where she has been now more than a month on account of illness. She is improving slowly. Mrs. Worthington is well known in the fputernal circles of this city. Democratic Candidate for Member of the Board of Review. Hon. Ulysses S. Schwartz, Democratic candidate for Member of the Board of Review of Cook County, Illinois, was born in the City of Milwaukee, State of Wisconsin, and is of immigrant parents. He was educated in the public schools of Norway, Mich., graduated from the John Marshall Law School, Chicago, and was admitted to the practice of law in 1910. He was appointed Assistant Prosecutor of the city by Mayor Carter H. Harrison in 1911, and served 4 years. He afterwards attracted special attention by his vigorous prosecution of the Chicago Street Railway Company, compelling them to furnish better heating and ventilation of cars, and he collected many thousands of dollars in fines as a result of his efforts. This was the first case of its character ever instituted in Chicago. He was elected to the City Council in 1916, from the 3rd ward, and the following year appointed to the finance committee and has served continually since that time, and is now a member of the firm of Kelly, Friedman, Schwartz and Doyle, lawyers, and is a member of the following committees of the City Council: Finance; He was elected to the City Council Local Transportation; Railroads; Industries Compensation. He abolished the absurd system by which the Council since his election. He experts were overpaid millions of dollars in fees for their services. In 1919 he was made chairman of the Local Transportation Committee and has served in that capacity since his election. He formulated the well-known "Schwartz Traction Plan," for the solution of Chicago's difficult traction problems; a plan that will lower fares without reducing wages; enables the building of subways; elevated and street railway extensions. In 1922 he instituted the suits against the Adams, Beatty, Francois Company compelling the return of over $200,000 paid to them for work which was never performed. In the recent street car strike he organized the Citizens' Committee, which by bringing public pressure to bear, curried the sudden termination of Chicago's transportation tie-up. In this regard, his efforts in behalf of all concerned and, especially the public, brought about the enthusiastic commendation of the public, commercial organizations and every appreciative citizen. Mr. Schwartz starts today as a candidate for the Board of Review, on an endorsed public record of fearlessness, intelligence, efficiency and economy. He is at the present time chairman of the Local Transportation Committee, chairman of the Committee on Committees, and chairman of the Sub-Committee of the Finance Committee on expert fees. Such honor and compliment has been rarely ever paid to the competence and honesty of any other member of the City Council. Alderman Schwartz, because of his record as a public servant of the City of Chicago, because of his long experience in public affairs, because of the thought and study he has given taxation problems, and because of the proficiency he has displayed in the discharge of every duty, and because of the special efforts made by him to favor the colored, as well as the white people, is justified in asking every thinking citizen for his or her undivided support in his candidacy for the office of Member of the Board of Review. Place before his name in the Democratic column on Tuesday, Nov. 7th, and assure yourself a square deal. RETURNS PLEASED Dr. A. H. Young, 4114 Calumet avenue, has returned to the city from Leavenworth, Kan., where he spent several days during his vacation visiting his mother, Mrs. Sallie Young, and other relatives. Mrs. Monen L.

Charles Ringer, Republican candidate for County Treasurer, was born in Nova Scotia, February 27th, 1874, coming to this city with his parents when he was about ten years old and residing in the city of his adoption for the past 38 years. At that time his forehearers located in the Hyde Park district and from that time to the present Mr. Ringer has been actively engaged in the development of that great section of Chicago, in fact he has accomplished more for the permanent expansion and for the upbuilding of the Calumet district than any other single individual residing in that part of this great city. For many years Mr. Ringer has been successfully engaged in the real estate business and that is one reason why the vast majority of the real estate men in this city are loyally supporting him in his race for County Treasurer. He started in on his successful business career in a very small way, but by being honest and straightforward in his dealings with his fellow men success has more than crowned his efforts in the business world. Some evil or low or narrow-minded white and colored people, who are ready to attempt to drag or pull an honest man down by foul or unfair means, have been circulating the false report far and near that Mr. Ringer is one of the head members of the Ku Klux Klan in this city. That statement is as far from the truth as the bright shining sun is from the earth. It seems that the thoughtless brained persons who make or utter such false and malicious statements have failed to take into consideration the bold ```markdown ``` 1930 HON. MICHAEL K. SHERIDAN The People's Candidate for Election for Member of Assessors, of Cook County; Both Men and Vote for Him. fact that no white person-not born in this country can ever become a member of the Ku Klux Klan. Their book containing their secret oaths and so on which lies before us right now so states and Mr. Ringer being born in Nova Scotia, is therefore down and out when it comes down to joining the three K. K. K.'s. This statement is simply made in all fairness to Mr. Ringer as we firmly believe in being fair and just to all men black or white, rich or poor, high or low, Jew or gentle, and as Brother Ringer is traveling East, like the writer, he is justly entitled to a square deal from us through the columns of this newspaper. Mr. Ringer is an honored and prominent member of the following lodges and clubs: Triluminer Lodge, No. 767 A. F. A. M.; Cheltenham Lodge, No. 113 I. O. O. F.; Invincible Lodge, No. 353 K. of P.; Chicago Lodge, No. 4 B. P. O. E.; Loyal Order of Moose; Friendship Council Royal League; Hamilton Club of Chicago. For the past six years Mr. Ringer has been a member of the Board of Assessors of Cook county and within the past two weeks he has stated open and above board at several largely at-tended meetings composed of colored people which he has addressed, "that for the past six years 13 colored people both men and women have been constantly employed in the rooms of the Board of Assessors and that if he is elected County Treasurer that colored men and women will be placed in positions in that office and that his past or present record amply proves that he is not unfriendly to the colored race." ```markdown ``` ction for Member of the Board y; Both Men and Women Can HAMPTON, VA—Folk music of the East and West met on comparable terms, through the co-operation of Max Rabinoff of New York, when the well-trained Ukrainian National Chorus, dressed in gorgeous, native peasant costume, and the Hampton Institute chorus and choir, composed of Negro voices, recently sang in Ogden Hall, at Hampton Institute, the famous folk songs of "Little Russia" and the Negro religious folk songs or "spirituals" of the "Old South" before a warmly enthusiastic audience of over 2,000 representative white and colored citizens of the Lower Peninsula of Virginia. This matine concert was given under the auspices of the Musical Art Society of Hampton Institute, of which R. Nathaniel Dett is the conductor. Russians Deeply Moved The Ukrainian singers were enceded again and again. They were greeted with sympathy and fervor, by the 850 Hampton Institute students, who sang to them, under the leadership of Paige I. Lancaster, formerly a song leader and first lieutenant of "The Buffaloes," four Negro folk songs—"Ride On, Jesus," "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen," "Look Away in the Heaven," and "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot." Some of the Ukrainian singers declared that in all their travels through Germany, France, and Belgium they had never heard such thrilling chorus singing as that which was furnished to them by the Hampton Institute students. They fairly danced with joy behind the curtain, after the Hampton students sang for them the primitive and developed Negro folk melodies. Tribute to R. N. Dett Alexander Koshetz, the famous Cossack conductor-composer, after hearing the Hampton Institute choir of sixty voices sing "Listen to the Lambs" and "I'll Never Turn Back No More," two compositions based on Negro folk motifs, written by R. Nathaniel Dett of Hampton Institute and interpreted under his conductorship, said: "This Negro composer's work is colossal in its significance of the cultural possibilities of Negroes. On my return to Ukraine I shall put Professor Dett's compositions on my programs and have my students study and interpret Negro folk music." The Hampton Institute choir sang with effectiveness, as its first number, Harry T. Burleigh's "Deep River." Perfection of Chorus Singing The Ukrainian National Chorus sang three groups of folk songs. Their program included fifteen principal numbers. The public appraisal of their work and of the Hampton Institute singers is clearly reflected in the following editorial, which appeared in the Newport News, Va. "Daily Press" of October 22: "Music-lovers in this community are indebted to Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute for a rare treat in chorus singing, by both white and colored singers. There is no music, we think, quite equal to the singing of a well-trained chorus; and next to Hon. Michael K. Sheridan, Democratic candidate for Member of Board of Assessors, has lived in the City of Chicago since 1888, and for twenty years was manager of the shipping department of the big packing plant of Morris & Company. In 1912 he was appointed Deputy Clerk of the Criminal Court and in the fall of that year was elected Member of the Board of Assessors. He has earned the respect and esteem of the citizens of Cook County regardless of party lines, because of his fairness and courtesy and his devotion to the interests of all the people. He is a man of generous and genial disposition, is a member of a number of fraternal and benevolent organizations, which may be mentioned the Maccabees, the Knights of Columbia, the Loyal Order of Moose, and the Irish Fellowship Club. He is a man with an intellectual horizon, inspiring regard, trust and admiration, not unmingled with brotherly love. He has proved himself deserving of all the support and consideration that can possibly he given by the colored people by his extreme kindness and devotion to their welfare, and he expects to be re-elected by the votes of all of his friends on Tuesday. New York HON. TIMOTHY J. CROWE Democratic Candidate for Trustees of the the Sanitary District of Chicago. His Many Friends Look Upon Him as a Real Live Winner. Hon. Timothy J. Crowe, Democratic candidate for Trustee of the Sanitary District of Chicago, has hosts of warm friends who are advocating his election so that he can be in a position to stop the waste of millions of dollars of the small taxpayers' money. He advocates removal of spoll bank on canals. He advocates roads paralleling the canal. Plants to be constructed in isolated districts. Reduction of bond issues and referendum on same. Abolishment of million dollar suppressed pay rolls. Moneys from bond sales to be used for purposes issued. Efficiency and energy restoring technical men to technical positions.

Both men and women can vote for him at the election Tuesday, Nov. 7.—Adv. that is a well-trained orchestra; and next to that is the pipe organ in the hands of a well-trained performer. "The Ukrainian National Chorus, directed by Alexander Koshetz, a Cossack composer and conductor, is not only a human chorus but a human orchestra and a human pipe organ. In some of the vocal accompaniments yesterday afternoon, it was hard to believe that the harmony was produced by the voices of men and women, and not by musical instruments—violins, flutes, French horns, and bass viols. Especially notable was the bass-viol effect, with its decrescendos, shading down to what seemed to be a soft reverberation. Again the chorus produced the effect of an organ, the conductor sounding the stops and producing much the same effect as though he had his fingers on the keys and his feet on the pedals, so well in accord were the different voices, so responsive to the moods of the directing artist. "But the Ukrainians were not the only chorus singers present. The students of the institute were there in 'orce, and whether singing as a student body, or as a selected choir, their music was perfect of its kind, for colored choristers can beat the world singing their own inimitable melodies. The Ukrainians were visibly impressed, and gave expression to their appreciation by enthusiastic handclapping and encores. "The 'Daily Press' heartily congratulates the Hampton Institute singers on their splendid work. It was an honor to the institution and the colored race, and a high tribute to their excellent training. "Variety was added to the concert by the vocal solos of Mile. Nadia Platinina, who has a soprano voice of fine quality, thoroughly cultivated." Plainnov An Interpreter Mlle. Nadia Platinova, the Ukrainian lyric soprano, who is making her first road tour, created great enthusiasm and won prolonged applause for her finished and effective singing of romantic ballads and folk songs. Her seven solo numbers included "The Doubt" by Glinka; Aria from "Snow Maiden" by Rimsky-Korsakoff, "Look, Pretty Maiden" by Dargomijsky," Had I Only Known" by Tschaikowsky; and "Lullaby" by Grettemaninoff. The Newport News "Daily Press" called special attention to the fact that Mlle. Platinova "interpreted the Russian miscellaneous melodies in exquisite style." According to the same critic, M. Nicholas Stember "accompanied with intelligence, showing excellent technique and fine musicianship." "Paglacci" Coming The Musical Art Society of Hampton Institute announces that on Wednesday evening, November 8, "Paglacci," the favorite opera of Carno, will be given by a New York company, under the Kingsbury Foster management, in Ogden Hall, Hampton Institute.

Twenty Negro couples were among the guests of the America's Making carnival and dance at the Hotel Astor, 44th street and Broadway, Friday evening, Oct. 27th. Thirty-six racial and national groups were represented in an unprecedented and myth-destroying get-together. The program was a mixture of special entertainment and social dancing. The great Louis Chalif and his Russian dancers, the Erie Sisters and Dolly Sisters, Finnish, English, Carpathe-Russian and Swedish folk dances provided unique entertainment for those who did not dance. But Negroes can dance and did. The magnificent grand ballroom provided a pretty setting for this group with its charming women handsomely gowned, its men suave and graceful. They were, as the America's Making program courageously asserted and demonstrated, a part of OUR AMERICA. Among the Negro guests were Dr. and Mrs. W. E. B. DuBois, Mr. and Mrs. Engene Kinclek Jones, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Pace, Mrs. and Mrs. Gerald F. Norman, Dr. and Mrs. E. R. Alexander, Mr. and Mrs. James Harris, Mr. and Mrs. Jerome Burge, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Elzy, Dr. and Mrs. George A. Kyle, Mr. and Mrs. Charles S. Johnson, Mrs. Daisy Tapley, Mrs. Charles W. Joyce, Mrs. Ella B. Harrison, Miss Minnie Brown and Miss Louise Lattimer A DREAM REALIZED A dozen or more years ago the Phyllis Wheatley Woman's Club caught a vision of many women and girls of our group coming to Chicago from various sections of the country finding it difficult to secure suitable lodging places. These earnest women determined to solve the problem, if possible, by providing a social center and home, surrounded by Christian influences, where girls would be safeguarded, and be sure at all times of kindly sympathy, friendly encouragement, and practical help at reasonable rates, whether they came to study or to work. A nine-room house was purchased at 3530 Forest avenue for $3,400.00, and the Phyllis Wheatley Home was opened May 31st, 1908, with a mortgage of $2,000.00. The much needed institution succeeded, until having outgrown the small quarters, an exchange was made for the more commodious building at 3256 Rhodes avenue, August 5th, 1915, costing $10,000.00. The Phyllis Wheatley Home has long since earned the right to be classed among the most helpful social agencies of this great city, and its many friends will rejoice with them to know that the last dollar has been paid, and the public is invited to attend the framing of the cancelled mortgage and the installation of the newly-elected officers Thursday, November 9th, at 8 p. m.

SCARFS IN FAVOR Charming Accessory Is Easy to Make at Home. Just Matter of Choosing Right Materials and Putting Together in the Right Way. Do you possess enough scarfs? They are in particular favor just now, and if you haven't all you want, by all means go to work and make some more. For making them isn't a difficult thing to do. And it isn't an expensive thing to do, either. It is just a matter of choosing the right materials and putting them together in the right way. Of course, the simplest sort of scarf for evening is just the strip of tulle. This need not be finished in any way. It comes in different widths. The one a yard and a half wide is a good one to choose. Get three-quarters of a yard for a scarf. Three-quarters is the width, of course, and the yard and a half is the length. You can put a big tassel on each end of a length of tulle to make a little more elaborate scarf. Silver and gift tassels come at all sorts of prices—three or four dollars for the big ones, 50 cents for the smaller ones, and as little as 25 cents for the very little ones. If you want something more elaborate still you can buy a strip of velvet-brocaded chiffon and hem all its edges, or edge them, shawl-wise, with fringe. This makes an especially pretty scarf, particularly just now, when Spanish shawls are in vogue. Then there are those tied-and-dyed scars. To make them get a length of crepe de chine or other thin silk fabric, and knot the ends or else tie them with a strip of white rag. Then immerse the scarf in some dye—orange or scarlet, gray or blue. Use a cream or white or scrub fabric for the foundation. Then when the scarf is dyed there will be an irregular band at the ends where it was tied or bound of the original color. The wavy lines marking the band and the half tones at the edges of the undyed part add to the attractiveness of the scarf. NEW SHORT LEATHER JACKETS Jackets that serve for outdoor wear are evolved from kid or leather. One attractive model is developed from gray leather and trimmed with red, the red taking the form of a narrow piping around the standing collar, the cuffs, the pockets and the front closing. Another Jacket, made for a prominent French actress for wear at a premiere, was made of blistered kid, very soft and supple, the blistered effect being emphasized by embroidery. Companying this jacket was a white dress, the skirt made of cloth and the waist of geogrette crepe. The sleeves of the dress were embroidered in a Romanian motif as we see the small pockets on the skirt. THE LATE JOHN J.
