Stay, Clara, Mr. W. would be a very handsome young man if it wasn't for his avidly bad hair, wouldn't he? Oh, he's all right now; he had his barber treat his hair with Palm Cream, and now he is simply a dream. Our Palm Cream will not only straighten hair, but will keep it straight. Water on change of climate will not affect it. We have thousands and thousands of men today—men in all walks of life throughout this country, South America, the West Indies and various parts of Africa—using our goods. It is not always that a manufacturer can succeed with his goods in his own home town. He often has to seek fields far away. But not so with us. We have succeeded in our home. If you know a barber in New York, write and ask him what he thinks of Palm Cream. Palm Oil is an accessory to Palm Cream, as it grows the hair and keeps it beautiful. If your hair is hairy and dry or brittle it needs Palm Oil. If it is sick, stubborn and will not grow it needs Palm Oil. Palm Oil is not that soft, greasy mess used by so many people for the hair. It is dry and neat; it will not grease your hat, but will give your hair that beautiful, glossy effect so much desired by everyone. Big inducements offered to agents. Special rates to the barbers.

One of the men: diversified bills seen here in many a moon greeted the large attendance hero on Monday night. The first act on was a distinct novelty; it introduced, for the first time in this house, a Chinese singing and dancing act; Joe Chong & Moyo was the manner in which it was billed, and they did all their work in a native costume, singing a couple of duets and a couple of single numbers in more than pleas. Tony Langston Tony Langston dod2 Hunter held fourth position, I pleased in the same manner as in the former visit of a year ago. It is a bit different, neither of the artists are world beaters along their line, they have enough of the goods and personality to form a band. The first act, The final act, the Angelo Armenta Troupe, acrobats extraordinary, held everybody to the final curtain and the bill of varieties that suited well. ```markdown ``` The last half of last week opened with Broslois & Brown in a great bicycle act that was full of hair pairing and attaining tight. The clown end of the act was a riot and his stuff was as ridiculous as the straightlaced work was on the stage. The team of Crumley & Gulfport, in a comedy offering called the Porter and the Red Cap. They used a special railroad drop that lends a real tone to their performance. Crumley is a vocalist of no small ability and Gulfport is what can well be called a real comedian. The team of Crumley and Gulfport and they were recorded a liberal hat and finish. Geo. Paul & Co. in a tah colled the Laborer and the Man, did well, and in 'n' pieces they have a fine sense of timing and sinceely. Redmond & Wells, a singing, talking and dancing pair, was fourth on, and the closing act introduced by Hawaiians in a regular South Sea Show was not above the average in cleverness. On next Monday the eastern team of the team of the first half. This act has played several enragements for the W. V. M. A. since it is considered way above the average.

Hoffman, who is releasing the big production, "The Sin Woman," which comes to the Hollywood and Sundance and Sunday, Sept. 22 and 23, and will be shown to adults only, it being released by special permit. As general manager or organizer of the universal Film Company, he organizes the nowned Bluebird photoplasts, he needs no introduction to the public. He is one of the most enterprising and indie men in the moving picture industry. "The Sin Woman" is the first release under the Foursquare trademark, is the standard of quality Mr. Hoffman owns, and he will distribute the pictures he will distribute. A picture to be exploited under this brand will have all the qualities necessary to make it a feature film. He will be disappointed when they see a picture advertised with the Fourquarry trademark on it, for such a feature film. The public will best players, the best direction and the Hoffman policy, which is the best.

Over and over again they exploded, a greedy audience insisting on it. The two blackfaces have developed an amusing dialogue typical of their race, also sing songs, both original and his own, and one of the most original and unique we have witnessed and Wilson and Wilson should certainly be complimented for which they performed. It would be pleasure to see more acts like this one. BILLY KING HITS Detroit, Mich., Sept. 18.—What is considered be one of the very best acts in the world, Miles here this week.

It setteth on the fire of nature; and it is set on the fire of hell."—James 3:5:6. The above verse, taken from Scripture, is the basic argument of the scenario prepared by the combined efforts of Mme. Humphrey and George Hill. It is a comprehensive verse, and while annotationally has been taken as text for unaccounted thousands of sermons, the dramatic possibilities reach their climatic heights in the picture. The all-star cast, composed of James Morrison, Arthur Donaldson, Grace Valentine, Paul Capollain, Louise Bauchier, and Michael Needs no introduction. They are prominently fixed in the constellation of the theatrical stage; their gathering in one room is the setting of the play. William Humphrey assures the finished artistry necessary for so pretentious a theme. He deals with the trials and vicissitudes brought about by inconsiderate remarks and actions of people, not exactly malicious, yet so deliberate in their affair that it brings to light a noble and virtuous destruction of the peace of others who were entitled by their inherent virtues to the happiness which is the reward of a noble life. The whipped and scourged by evil tongues out from the shelter of society, the vice and happiness and peace in each other, and the remembrance of the efficiency of a pure love tried as by "Habibling Tongues," full of new situation and remembrant climaxes, has been made possible as a novel addition to the motion picture art.

Rev. Dr. Anderson officiated at the funeral services. Election of Howard Causes The hard thing to do is not to find white men who are anxious to help the Race in its political fight, to stand in the Republican party, to find a men big enough and with courage and ideals enough to take up the fight and on to death or life. Most of the "roost higns" use their shining hours trying to help the men that "besides me there is no other" very pitiful to see a half dozen of the new, "big Negroes" together on a political mission. It is everything but murder. Thousands of other days were real men, stout hearted, not much on book leisure, but heavy on manhood and honor. Their names are the golden roll call: Curey of Texas, Hill, Price and Lynch or Mississippi, Pledger of Georgia, beaumont of California, Alexander of Alabama, and the rest. Their successors have no kingdom. It was all disheartening to both the Race and stalwart white Republicans Georgia and South Carolina "did a deal" in convention in 1916. Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia had the votes and the brains to make him national committeeman. But, playing for "honor yet to come," he had to house, he again elevated Henry Jackson to the place once held by Judson Lyons of Augusta. He had in its delegation seven Race men and four white men. Half the time the delegation were not speaking each to the other. The only solidarity shown was when the astute Republican then them into the DuPont camp, where they thought though the world was voting for Hughes, a national committeeman, was selected whose distinction scorns the necktie. A little common sense would have elected either Levy of Florence, Fordham of Orangeburg or Tucker, Hunter, each superior to Tucker. Each of these "leaders" mistrusted the other. The Mississippi Race men seem all different. Washington wonders if anyone will lead the Race as an former days. The next three years will see many and mighty changes in the political role of the Race, led by W. B. DuBois, the X. R. Church, and the political party on race. Many hold this to be a blunder and with R. R. Church, the Tennessee leader, Howard Davis, and the opposition in the Republican party. DuBois will have the assistance of the agitators, who are legion and not to be deserved. The Republicans will have the silent influence of Emmett J. Scott, the active influence of the big Race office holders, and the oratorical support of Roscoe Conkling Simmons, whose political liberalism the party is almost as striking as his worship of the American flag. R. B. NEAL REMAINS A "GOOD OLD NIGGER" He Prefers to Live North But Don't Want His Friends to Come Jackson, Miss. Sept. 21. —Some time ago R. B. Neal who lives at 5112 Wabash avenue, Chicago, Ill., wrote a letter to the Jackson Daily News asking them to print his letter in which he warned his friends and acquaintances from coming to this section of the country. R. B. went further than that, he tried to tell of the disadvantages he had faced. He didn't believe him when a short time later he here and then left for the north again. If things are as bad as he says they are he certainly would not have eased back with the winter facing him, because according to his first letter he would have been and then and he will find that the caloons are closed on the Sabbath day. Neal took the first train out for Chicago one evening and when he arrived home he penned the Daily News an article that he was in the Chicago Defender. Folks down here think Neal is a candidate for the bug house while a Defender reporter was told that his white dandelion car was good old niggers. At first Neal denied it, but first letter but his statement in his last plaining tribes to cover up some of those things. Such scallows as this skunk ought to be taken to the edge Chicago river, up there where he is, and his head held under the water. To the People of Chicago: the mayor patiently submitted to untruthful newspaper articles in which I have been grossly lilbeed. When I was elected my mayor I was of the opinion that, although the compilers in the past had done much through my writings, and injure my reputation, they would to some degree respect the truth in referring to the chief executive of our office; however, that the public official who did write the articles tates of some of the editors of our daily papers, to the detriment of the interests of the people, and violate his oath of office at their bidding, is marked for punishment. "Recent events impel me, not only as a matter of self-respect but out of regard for the position I occupy, to take steps to punish those persons responsible for my writings, which I believe are injuring my good name and that of the city of Chicago. "Deliberate Falsehoods" "I have been charged by the daily press of Chicago and by others with refusing to invite to our city the representatives of foreign nations. I have been charged with refusing to permit the sale of Liberty bonds in the city which he had purchased to erate falschools. It is my opinion that because I did not bring libel suits against newspapers and their editors at the time these and other misstatements were made they have become bolder and more unscrupulous until they have acted a point where they are accusing me of being a traitor to our country. "They are printing and indorsing resolutions passed by the directors of the company, and they are permitting the holding of a sedition meeting, and also charging that I have not only been guilty of malfeasance in office but of the more helpless offense of insulting." Tells of Suits "Some of our papers of yesterday conveyed the impression that I was jeered and insulted in an automobile museum and insulted when in truth I remained in the city to confer with attorneys for the purpose of instituting suits for libel to the museum, and is in pursuance of this determination that I have caused to be filed the suits for libel which have been brought yesterday and have been audited by the authorities of the conspiracy against me, my enemies have recently bored holes in the walls of my apartments, installed dictagraphs, tapped the windows and published operators in adjoining rooms, and employed spies to hound me. "I would welcome the truthful public opinion, and I would say or done, yet I recognize the fact that the persons that are so contemptible as to resort to these spying and disreputable methods do not hesitate to report the officers and operators as a means to manufacture false testimony and build up perjury."

(Special to the Defender) Louville, Ky., Sept. 21.—One of the most pronounced rebukes ever given to the bourbon southerner was administered to Robert Lee Fraston, professor, southerner, by "Marze" Henry Watterson in his Courter-Journal Sunday. Preston, who arrogated to himself the stupendous job of speaking for "23,000,000 Anglo-Saxons," took offense because the great editor likened the present Prussian war party in Ger-land to the French in World War II; the Civil war, predicting that the fate which overtook the slaveholders would overtake the Hohonozollers and the Hapurbsurg.

CONSTRUCTIVE WORK A COMMON SUBSTITUTE for honest thinking on the practical aspect of the situation, as far as we are concerned in northern cities, is the gib assumption that matters will eventually adjust themselves, and, where self-adjustment miscarries, charity will come to the aid. This famous delusion has ten long blinded us to the necessity for positive efforts of constructive social welfare work. The country-wide surface eruptions, which are manifestations of conflicts of color, industrial restlessness and growing economic insecurity, are developing into such conspicuous features of our daily experience that we can no longer safely ignore them. The rural south is moving into the urban north. The problem of the city is accentuated. This situation cannot be adequately met by palliatives. It has long been recognized that in the treatment of such wide disorders as result from it approved scientific methods are important. Until recently we have not emphasized this necessity, particularly because there have been few specially trained workers. The National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes is in the field with this new ideal. Investigations and facts are made the basis of its remedial efforts; the study and comparison of causes are made to reveal, through fundamental similarities of causes and effects, the peculiar defects of varying situations. Its aim is comprehensive. It seeks to alter the environment which impresses maladjustments; to remove obstacles to social uplift. This ideal explains the efforts of the local branch at co-operation with all agencies devoted to welfare work among our people; it explains the purposes of its industrial department and its records and investigations. This new emphasis on constructive social work merits our hearty support. Its investigations and records are available for all who seek information on the condition of our people in Chicago. It can meet the long, necessary demand for a bureau of information and a clearing house through which the earnest but narrow efforts at social improvement may be brought into harmony. In so far as we are conducting this work ourselves, its most effective services are possible only through the wide sympathetic connections which it receives from extensive membership. This is for the layman the most practical expression of his faith in the great body of his people. --- ERASING THE LINE The above was prompted by a statement of President Wilson that the war would obliterate the last division line—"either of race or association"—between the North and the South. Our President is a learned man, and doubtless is a man of the past. Our President, we venture to say he has his only scratched the surface. Nothing can be given to a class of people who continue to nurse their racial hatred and instill venom in their offspring. The followers of Bleese, Vardaman, Hoke Smith, Tillman and men of their ilk, are blindly ignorant of the advance made by the outer world. "They are harking back to the dim and distant past, attempting to make sense of the past, before the civil war, and are loath to be awakened to the actualities of today. It is not only the Race in the South, but the white man as well, that surely needs education, and until both get a working amount of brains there is little hope of the line being erased. The war, if it lasts long enough, and this country can deepen its understanding toward solidifying the American people. The south talks too much, expecting the Americans by so doing. They forget that they need the Race man as much as if not more than he needs them, and the north, east and west know this fact. We are not foolish enough to believe that prejudice can be wiped out in a day, a year or two. We are not foolish enough to believe that prejudice can be wiped out on both sides the line will in a few years become so faint that we will not overcome it every time we travel from one section of the country to another. SCHOOL DAYS books figure in the comprehensive department of the Interior as Jessia Jones and a corps of lation, and the results justify the books are discussed as Public Facility: Agricultural and Rural Buildings and landmarks and hundreds of school With these facts spread before between worthy and unworthy institutions have suffered in rea- northern donors has been with state of affairs, the most logi- cally with their runners scouring schools and universities, the school for the education of the co- weed them out. The total and expenses of the private schools a half is given by the white ch an another million is contributed by Seven hundred schools figure in the comprehensive report on Negro Education, just issued by the Department of the Interior through the bureau of education. Dr. Thomas Jessie Jones, corps of assistants laborers in the first volume such topics are discussed as Public Facilities for Negro Education; Industrial Education; Agricultural and Rural Education; College and Professional Education; Buildings and Grounds Finances. The second volume such topics are discussed as Public Facilities for rural states and counties. With these facts spread before the philanthropist it is possible to distinguish between worthy and unworthy schools. Many deserving institutions have suffered in recent years because the support received from northern donors has been withheld. Several reasons for this are the lack of funds for so many fake schools, with their runners securing the country preying on those charitable inclined. In every neck of the woods some leech pretended to run an industrial school for the education of the colored children, and this report will do much to help to prevent the current expenses of the private schools aggregate $2,400,000. Of this fully a million and a half is given by the white churches for their denominational schools, and another million is contributed by individual donors and churches for the maintenance of the independent institutions. Property valuations in the private institutions are in the range of $24,000,000. The current report are in brief as follows: That there is a pressing need for increased public school facilities; that the aid of philanthropy should be continued with the present liberality until the south has attained to a better economic condition; that all education should be developed of character, including this simple but fundamental virtues of cleanliness, order, perseverance, and the qualities essential to the home; and second, adaptation to the needs of the pupil and the community. That supervision of both public and private educational efforts should be increased, so that all agencies may be correlated with each other, sound business methods, established organization of work suited income, and plant, and building operations conducted with economy and good taste. The great fault has been that the white man has never come in close contact with the Colored man; he knows only by long distance his needs, and desires. While money moves the wheels personal supervision brings greater require. If it has been for the contrabanner's liberality we could not enjoy our fifty years of freedom, a decrease in our illiteracy from 90 per cent to 90 per cent. Education is the solution of the vexed problem, and we are the ones destined to work out our own salvation, with the help, and encouragement of our friends, who have done so much for us in the past. That we SWAT IT! RACE PREJUDICE U.S.A. worthy of the efforts put forth in our behalf is attested by the record we have made when given only half a chance. With the entro 'Chicago press against him' Mayor Thompson stands a poor chance of letting the people know the other side of his sympathies he has made mistakenly - who hasn't. But in all fairness he is entitled to an even break. Some of the papers infect so much of their personal animosity into their denunciations that the reader's sympathies are with instead of against the mayor, as was intended. There is nothing gained by slandering. Besides being a good lawyer and an efficient alderman, Louis B. Anderson enjoys the reputation of being a pretty fair story teller. When he sprang the one about ordering a meal in a certain restaurant and the dies eating it up before the writer fairly got it served, the gang decided it was his turn to buy it. Being Sunday the drunkgirl gave them nut sodas—"Very good, Eddie". In the meantime, dozens of letters are coming in from railroad men, real men, stating that they are refusing to segregate their own Race and are leaving their positions when asked to do so. There may be other ways to force the issue, but this is as good as any. Keep up the work; constant dripping of water will wear away a stone. UNCLE SAM is soon to have the distinction of having the largest and best air craft fleet in the world, and woe unto Germany when they commence dropping explosives promiscuously. LET US NOT FORGET that during these hard times the Home for Aged and Infirm needs an extra lift to get along. Old age is something that creeps up on all of us and fortune may not always be smiling; we never can tell. DO YOUR BIT TO HANDLE 2,000 men and keep them in the straight and narrow path is the duty of the officers of the Eighth regiment, and let it be said to their credit they are acquiring themselves nobly. A cold snap even of only a few hours' duration clears the corners of State street from lappers more quickly than a sound of policemen. Give the brother plenty of warmth and sunshine. Our new friends from the south believe in sending their children to school. In sections where they have located a 25 per cent increase in attendance is noted. Like everything else the overhead expense, meaning the aviation branch of our fighting force, is quite a drain on Cecile Sam's postkookshot. MEET FOR RACE UPLIFT Entertained in St. Louis, Mo. Mrs. C.

A Letter to Mr. Sweeney San Quentin, Calif., Sept. 11, 1974—W. Allison Sweeney, Associate Editor Chicago Defender: My Dear Sir: I am taking the liberty of expressing my appreciation of your mastery reply to James L. Burnett in The Chicago Defender of the 5th Inst, entitled, "A Still Birth." You speak the truth with an eloquence born of knowledge; your exposition of related facts, and their inimitable influences are the most powerful. Keep up the good work, and in due season, when our battered legions return to our shores they will find a new democracy—a democracy made positional, courageous and courage of our "Black Legions." The writer served five years in the 19th U. S. Cavalry, and understood the organic efforts generally put forth to insure us before the bar of public opinion. We will be the "Turcos" of the U.S. and with the same courage we will defend our flag and our homes. We are proud of our country and we must prove apt scholars. Americans we are, and Americans we will continue to be in the "fullest sense." I'm a naturalized citizen naturalized in Los Angeles in 1904. I am a native of the Egyptian Soudan, being born near Khartoum: I have lived in the various countries of Europe and the Middle East, and in no place may one find such undemocratic conditions as in democratic America. I have five brothers in France's city of African Diaspora, and one brother in 4th Cairo, and two brothers are serving under the banner of the "Grand Semoussil" in Mesopotamia, one brother in Arabia, and I am a native of Egypt. Neither duty, neither will I surrender a privilege of citizenship. I owe my country my all, and it owees me an equal enjoyment of those right for which I am asked to die. Thanking you for bearing with my burden of joy, I still live under good report. Very respectfully. L. C. Lazarus B. C. 24251 Luco Lenanjl a Mullah. Iman of Khartoum, Egyptian Soudan.

The next meet BEG YOUR PARDON In last week's issue the name of Editor Robert S. Abbott of the Chicago Defender was omitted from the speaker's address at the Northwestern club. In the last week's issue it was erroneously named Dearborn street, committed suicide by turning on the gas. The coroner's verdict was accidental death. PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES HYGIENICS AND SANITATION No Cases Are Diagnosed and No Prescriptions Given in These Weekly Are THE NEWCOMERS—SELF-MEDICATION Many of our new neighbors have come from the rural district Upon this contention the insurance company held up the insurance. Eight months have passed and the two wives are still fighting for the insurance. When you have anyone sick in your family or when you yourself are alling, not feeling well, have shortness of breath, your feet swollen, or feel generally below par, seek first all of medical advice on yourself, or give medical advice to your neighbor, because sooner or later you will get into trouble or will get your neighbors into trouble. It is important that only licensed physicians are allowed to practice medicine in this state, and only legally qualified physicians are permitted to issue death certificates, or make out insurance papers, or any insurance claim except upon a certified copy of the death certificate from the board of health, and a certificate from the undertaker who buried the patient, or from the doctor who attended deceased during his or her last illness. If you are trying to save money by using home remedies, the various patient medicines, herbs and different kinds of medicine, and in the end will only be involved in great trouble. You must comply with the laws and regulations that obtain in this Reporting Contagious Diseases Just two days ago we were called to a house and found two children in a dilapidated, almost uninhabitable place, with well developed smallpox; they had never been vaccinated; they were to run and play among their neighbors; they went to and fro each day to work, riding on the street cars, thus exposing thousands of people to this awful disease that she brought with her from Georgia—remedies that her great grandmother used to use to bring out the melesmen on her children. The father had to make sheep unny tea. The mother had tried bone-set tea, etc., and was congratulating herself that she was able to hear what was melesmen with her teeth. Many of them can scarely read or write, yet claim to have ability to cure all kinds of colds, coughs, measles, fever, malaria, stomach disease, scarlet fever, malaria, stomach disease, etc., and every one has some sure cure for rheumatism. We sometimes think that the Colored people were here on earth around and about Jerusalem. We sometimes think that the Colored people are great believers in rubbing; they want to rub for everything, for all sorts of things, as they call it. Ignorant rubbing or massage is worse than no rubbing. THE NEGRO'S GETTING TIRED BY R. P. PLAYER. his soul speak his stir. fired. r and near. d.

State Signed ..... --- THE NEWCOMERS-SELF-MEDICA TION Many of our new neighbors have come from the rural districts where there was a scarcity of doctors and often where there was no supervision by a health commissioner or board of health, and where they have been compelled to be their own doctor or medical adviser. In many of those southern districts often old grannies and experienced nurses have acted as chief medical adviser In cases of sickness, and the taking up of the real doctor has been put off until DR. WILLIAMS 100 the very last moment, after all home remedies and all coolish and ignorant have been exhausted, the medical man has to purpose, often, of just writing the doctor certificates so as to avoid any difficulty with the underaker. We are reliably informed that in certain sections of the southland it is not possible to obtain a death certificate issued by a physician a burial permit from the health department, but any doctor could issue the death certificate, take it to the undertaker and the undertaker, upon the certificate of the doctor, would proclaim the individual without any record of the death being kept by the board of health. Two Points in Question Last week one of our newcomers called up a physician, asking him to some to their home at once and issue a certificate of death for the undertaker, to take care of the elderly for years of age, who had been in Chicago three weeks: the deceased lady had been complaining of weakness and had suffused of breath; she had been using home remedies and she brought with her from Alabama; she had refused to have a physician and died suddenly without having medicated. Her son. Her daughter was amazed and told her that she informed that it would be necessary to call a coroner, who would examine into the cause of death and issue a burial order. Her son, the mother was not sick enough to have a doctor, and all she wanted was a certificate from the doctor to bury her, so that she could collect the insurance, and that she would be man and pneumonia—she was sent to the hospital and because the doctor would not allow him to have whisky and be stuck with a temperature of 104 F. Part of the money from the hospital one night without the doctor's consent, and the next morning at $ 0. clock, she gave him beef steak to eat, and the result—the evening at $ 0 clock the man was dead. Insurance The man was fortunate in having an insurance of $500, and in also having two wives, so we are informed, and we claimed, claimed to be the jawful beneficiary, and we collect the insurance the insurance the insurance company alleged that the man died without the proper medical attention, as wife No 2 had removed the man from the doctor to her home and took his care on own hands, administered the beef steak contrary to the direction of the physicians at the hospital and the man died. I see ten thousand restless souls Give up their daily toll; I see ten thousand speak As if in great turmoil. The nation's asking why this star, And why this host's all fired; The answer comes from far and near. The Negro's getting tired. He has fought in all great battles, And has fought in all emiled.
