We have thousands and thousands of men today —men in all walks of life throughout this country, South America, the West hides and various parts of Africa—using our goods.

Is Justice supposed to be blind or is she getting her eyesight restored in Chicago? An incident occurred in one of the local courts which would allow her to see into what she is doing as well as it also goes to prove that the scrutinizing judges of Chicago sometimes run across those who by appearance through no eyes of theirs. The incident curred in one of the courts when a judge was to decide relative to the guardianship of two children of our Race. There appeared to qualify for law and order, but we had no special evidence of belonging on our side. The curiosity of the judge was aroused and he inquired concerning her Race, to which she promptly denied. The democracy comes unto her own in this country it will be quite unnecessary to make any inquiries about Race or nationality. We will all be, and that may be in this land, and all other lands. Is it possible that justice, in the time of America's greatest trial, is beaten especially in such a cosmopolitan city as Chicago? It has become a matter of custom for judges to allow petty trials for minor offenses, and the error has become of such prominence that it is hard to believe that a durse is unauscesting. Why ask this woman's racial identity? Several cases followed hers, but no mention was made of how to say, such a question was wholly unnecessary and entirely out of order.

Will the American daily newspapers ever get their think machinery to running smoothly and quit trying to make the American people laugh at lies and insults? He has a class of people within our borders? We have stood for this thing long enough. If they wish to tell something, they must tell what he has done in the medical world; Harry Burleigh, and tell what he has done in the musical world; Col. Charles Young, and tell what he has done in the world; Kelly Miller, and tell what he has done in the educational world. That would be funny, quite. And if he would be funny, he'd be Kaiser, he's awfully funny. He's murdering our sons and brothers by the thousands, and standing back first and having good laughs about it. It is a sad reflection on any newspaper that permits the use of the term "Niggan," of any of its lineded expanse, "of any of the united people of France ridiculing their loyal战士兵 in these terrible times?

The Grand's bill opened Monday night with Hicks & Howard in the jurgling novelty, introducing man novel features and going over in fine style. They were followed by the three Tarheed in a multi-Info exceptional ability, in songs, talking and dancing. It is very well loved by act and one that shows more than the ordinary amount of study, regarded as fine and general work. The middle of the bill held a fine novelty in Syvenall, a dj trained to such an ex- opened Monday Howard in their introducing many Tony Langston tont as to display admiest human intelligence. His trainer did a great job, and he wetted the auditors' appetite for the clever foot work displayed by the act which followed. The Roy's, seen here, have a good line of "different" tails and sing original songs in a way that produces mitt. Roy's dancing, how-ever, is not as flamboyant as the act, although the young lady end of the team shags and looks far above the avarice. It is a naut and pleasing turn, and the garden Review. That is just what it is, too, a review, with ten pretty girls, two straights and a Hebrew dance, with songs dances and comedy. The chorus floo one, the costuming wonderful, and special scenery right up to the stand-up will is a good one all the way through. The last half last week had the Bruces, old-time favorites, who have a lot of both opportunities. A new line of talk, a lot of eccentric and modern dancing and a roller-skate clog at the Mardi Gras, a lot of the bill. Others on were Frank Gordon, juggler; "The Third Degree," a sketch well presented; Pierce & Burke, team of talking comedians, and Dorothy Lyles and jazz band. This latter piece, a trombone-ture, and the addition of a trombone and a little pop added to the drums would pull it out to a grazingety lot and a slower little person and was well liked. The Avenue The bill here the first half was a widely diversified one. Restraining with Delphino & Dolmora, a European team composed of comedians, actors and musicians, Evelyn & Colleen versatile and handsome young ladies who sing a little, dance quite a bit and do some clever stunts on the bicycles, the band's most famous ventriloquist, who used a life-sized dummy with good results; Allen Leiber & Co., in an elopement sketch, and Ronch & Ccurdy, who have a rube to keep their interest and plenty of of rural comedy. The last half that week featured Jones & Jones, two boys who have one of the most laughable singing and acting acts comparatively the form to mats that they surely hold down the spot of honor on the bill and succeeded in trying things up in a hard knot. Their routine of tikk is a knockout, and they sing the tattoo, who sings illustrated songs; Stuart & Rathburn, a hooding act of class; Reams and Area, a good talking and singing pair; Florence Randall and characters in a neat domestic offering; Galibin & Gurin, with a good novelty. The Monogram Bernard's Dalktown Follies, with Ivin C. Miller, Esther Bigone, Henry C. Miller, and the following places this week: Belfair, Ohio; Parkersburg, Wheeling, Falmount, W. Vn., and Untownton, the show is a real hit all along the line. INNOCENT For Fannie Ward's debut as a Pathe star, a play has been selected that affords her a rare opportunity to show what she can do. She asks the question, "Should a woman be adjudged guilty who has inherited a certain weakness in character from her mother?" The answer is not given in the剧本, but she asks the question to decide for himself, but, for all that, "Innocent" has a happy ending. The story begins and ends in China, where a young scene is held in Paris and the River Seine. A young girl, born of European parents, and brought up from her early childhood within the high walls of a Chinese garden and with Chinese children as playmates, is sent to Paris, and his death leaves her, at his dying request, in the care of a friend, John Wynnham, a gentleman and man of passion, instillers, but cursed with a passion that he has been able to live down. Tired of the Orient, Wyndham returns to Paris, where he had once lived, and takes innocent with him. He installs a new apartment, and comes under the notice of Wyndham's former acquaintances, among them Doucet, who surreptitiously runs a large, fashionable gambling house. They do not understand her position in the city, and choose to laugh at Wyndham's explanations, and think evil. Doucet, highly polished and much of the gentleman-about-town, becomes infatuated with innocent, and when Wyndham succeeds in tempting him, he gambles the Frenchman visits the girl. Wyndham returns and finds them in close conversation, and, startled at the danger to his unsophisticated oar, orders the man to leave and not return. But the Parisian life is not good for her, so he sends her to the country. Innocent fails to see the reason for what seems to her harsh conduct on arrivals in the little French town than she calls up Doucet on the phone and tells him of her whereabouts. Wydna then becomes aware of the fact that he loves her. He motors out to see her, and reaches her at the very moment she intends and elope with him. He extends to reciprocate, but bludes him and goes away with Doucet. Events thus dramatically illiminate himself dramatically elmax. I am not able to tell you what happened. You must see the picture. Manager George Paul of Doucet describes this de luxe production and we show it for one day, next Sunday, April 14. "THE DEVIL STONE" Symbolical of the element of superstition which is the basic theme of the novel, is the Devil Stone, "The Devil Stone," the vision of a black cat appears at two dramatic and striking incidents of the play. At the opening, the Geraldine Farrer appears as a slimy creature in the vicinity of the Caira Manot. When a black cat comes into her hut with the storm, it brings a sudden thought of terror, implanted in her mind, and through ancient beliefs and superstious legends. Later in the story, Marcia is in America, a black cat is in her hut, and she she kills her miserly husband in self-defense when he attempts to wrest from her the Devil Stone, which was her husband's black cat first appeared in Marcia's life. Has the coming of a black cat any events of the story? Coms and judge for yourself at the States theater on the one day only. Don't miss it. BYRON BROS. DRAFTED Two of the famous Byron Brothers, Herbert and Clirence, have been drafted. On this account the great act has had to cancel a lot of work and they may be placed on the musician's musicians. Clirence is a little near-sighted, was placed back in the classification, but it looks as if Herb will have to go soon, as they found him to be a perfect 36, which is going some. Well, Herb is husty enough to the stars, and here's the hope that he will do it to a fare-the-well on go. boy. NOT SLACKERS The famous picture, "Colored Soldier No Shacker," is being distributed by the hundreds in the business places in the city. It is regarded as the best patriotic expression of loyalty ever produced. In business establishments along State Street, the picture is displayed the picture. In many instances the picture has been beautifully framed and draped with silk and embroidered fabric that makes a most impressive appearance. Thousands of the pictures are being sent to all parts of the United States, where they are home and business places in the land. There could be no better time than now to prove to the world, and hold up before our youth and all others the loyalty of the people of the Race. The picture is being produced in two sizes. Nothing more inspiring than this picture, boys march to the front "Over There." A money order for 25 cents, made out and addressed to Tony Langston, 3122 State street, Chicago, IL., will bring out of the great pictures by return mail.

Comtheorie, Walter Robinson and others. "Mdame X" created a sensation when produced abroad and met with success in the country. It is in a prologue and thrill acts and all the scenes are laid in France. The prologue introduces us to Jacqueline, a French court jester, an attorney, whose son, Raymond, is recovering from a serious illness. We learn that Jacqueline, Floriot's wife, has fled with her lover. Hearing about her death, Jacqueline him and beg forgiveness of his father, but is spurned and driven from the house. Beauty years elapse: we see Jacqueline and Larotue, a rough adventurer, arriving from South America, taking quarters at a cheap inn. She has become a drug addict and her beauty has been severely deprived. The soil of many lands, where she has sought to forget, but in vain. The memory of her son blooms in her heart. She is also for her husband rankles in her breast. Raymond is now 24 and a promising lawyer. Florlort is president of the court. Larose discoveries that the man she plans to blackmail him. Jacqueline, to prevent her son from knowing of her disguise, kills Larose. She is arrested and hides her identity under the man she plans to police, and Raymond must be selected to defend her in court.

Jacqueline, weak and displeased with drugs, is near her earthly journey. We see the jury before whom she is to be tried. Raymond makes the jury believe that the jury that they acquit her. He then learns that she is his mother and there follows a touching and beautiful scene, but before Florlort can be called and Jacqueline dies, content and happy in having found her son.

In deciding what to use in hair growth, it is the duty of proven merit. Seeby's Quinade is a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time. It is a real scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes hair growth, thus using a natural growth of long hair. Quinode is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced registered hair and softwax technician the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in the style desired. To get best results from the use of Quinode is necessary to shampoo the scalp and to apply the Quinode to Seeby's Quinaseap. Quinaseap is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleanser. Quinaseap lathers very softly and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequaled by any other shampoo. To accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinaseap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your druggist or dealer does not permit two articles to be obtained for you from his wholesaler or send us the price and we will mail them to you. Write to Seeby in the two articles at New York City, for a sample of Quinode, mentioning the name this paper—Adv. ```markdown ``` AGENTS—The COI BLACKER.

ARY ISSUE OF OF RIGHTEOUSNESS A COPY HOTO OF THE EDITOR His second coming with the elect of God, will put every man out of business who will not obey God, that they may perish from the earth for their willful neglect of obedience unto the most High, as it is written. Isaiah 60:11, 12. The wisdom brought out to the readers of "The Supreme Sun of Righteousness" and in their reach, cannot be exciled.

Therefore, whoever gets a copy of it must be prepared in; their application to prove they are worthy of knowing what it contains. All worthy people are welcome to a copy of it, as the circulation of it among all nations will cause the devil and his people, who are pointed out, by conduct, in Rev. 12th and 13th chapters, to now show themselves to be who they are by their individual acts, their conduct and their words, and it will cause THE REAL PEOPLE OF GOD to prove who they are, by the stand that they will take, at its bidding. For proof, see Matthew 22:1-9 verses. Archbishop Justus J. Evans, D. G., the founder of the ALMIGHTY CHURCH, is the editor and Founder, by an Appointment made by the God of Heaven, Himself, according to His own Will and Wisdom.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER SPIRAL SOCKS A new sock is being knitted for the soldier boys in the tronches. It is known as the sialk sock and was in originan woman, Mrs. K. A. Austrian woman, Mrs. K. A. Advorph, who is considered the best in Chicago when it comes to handling this sort of thing. She was fortunate in having the directions and in two days she had completed or part of spirals. The beauty of these anks is that no one part is likely to wear, as there is no heel. We are indeed fortunate in getting Mrs. Avendorph sialk socks. The directions for the spiral sock, which follow: In next week's issue will be the sock with the white foot, which saves the boys from blood poisoning. The Spiral Sock One bank gray, natural or white wool. Cast on 60 stitches—20, 20, 20—on three needles. Knit 2. purl 2 for 4 Inches. For spiral, knit 3, purl 2 for 4 rows. When you purl the two last stitches on the third needle also purl on same needle the first stitch on first needle the second stitch always adding at the end of the fourth row on third needle the first stitch on first needle purled This method forms the spiral. Continue until spiral measurement. Knit 2 several rows plain, in the knit, covering number of stitches to $6. Narrow toe as follows: Knit 2 together, knit 3 knit 2 together, knit 6 for one round, knit 2 together, knit 5 knit 2 plain. Knit 2 together, knit 6, knit 2 plain once around. Knit 6 knits without narrowing. Then a row of narrowing with interval of 4 stitches and 1 plain rows; 3 stitches and 3 plain rows; 3 stitches and 3 plain rows until you have only 24 stitches left. After last narrowing knit 2 rows, then a row of narrowing. Knit 2 together, knit 1, knit 2 together, knit 1 for one row of narrowing. Knit 1 for one row of one stitch only, which leaves 8 stitches. Holding the knitting needles together, with "front" needle next to you, wool at right end of "heel" needle, we are ready to finish the "kitchenener" Wash socks with pure soap sakes in lukewarm water and rinse in same temperature; lay socks on smooth surface, shape and stretch to original size. The loosely in pairs with piece of wool. This forms a medium pointed toe. The beauty of this sock is it is minus a heel and with the semi-pointed toe the heel does not wear out in any one particular spot and fits or shapes to the foot perfectly. These socks cling without the use of parters, and when fitted the heel does not wear out. One can make the spiral by knitting 5 and purling 3, or knit 3 and purling 2. It must be an even multiple, i.e. 8x8 or 12x5. Make an measurement by laying the shirt to be measured on a flat surface, such as table or floor, and measures with wooden or metal measure, not a tape line. Measure socks carefully from tip of from 10% to 14%. Sizes should be It is suggested that any bits of wool of any color may be knitted into stripes or bands in the tones of the socks that answer the question of whether wool is remnants of wool that might otherwise be wasted; of making distinguishing marks of ownership or of pairs, and of saving the stock of wool which is scarce and expensive; of varying the time in minutes in salted water. Rewire twice, wring hard each time.

Pat Stromberg and the Callahan valuable contortionists, all have appeared. Meanwhile, the Y. M. C. A. men are delving deeper, further. They are searching out that home talent to finer services or overseas service or shipboard hesitation. But Sammie, white or Colored, need not worry. Although the work is just in its infancy, the Y. M. C. A. has made such strides at it that it is alright to soldiers great proportions, and the soldiers who are there "shows" he where-so-deer. Company commanders, realizing the worth of recreation to their men, are advising of talent in their midst, and this helps much where men are too modest to work.

KOCH (Dr. Koch, who man, one of the 100% Americans—) REMARKABLE? Yes, of course, it was remarkable—so remarkable, so unusual, so distinctive that, might you have sat as sensor over the outbound mall of the soldiers at Camp Sherman, Uncle Sam's monster cantonment near Chilloutte you'd have found a thousand soldiers without a doubt, enthusing wildly as to it, and hoping that the good Y workers who had the affair in charge would see fit to repeat it again and again. "I to read the announcement in cold type—might not have attracted more than passing notice." "A minstrel show was staged at the big Auditorium at Camp Sherman by those of me —th and —th and certain regiments," the press disch A minstrel show, given at an army camp, where all manner of suns and wholesome performances are now being given, either free or at ridiculous prices. The cost of cover expenses, is hardly a matter of note. But in the giving of this particular minstrel show there went the talent of actual Colored men throughout, Colored men who were renowned for their skills, and men with instruments—Colored men who were college men, no few; Negroes who were waged of the chance to show a thousand of their white colleagues-at-arms what the Race redeemed to freedom a half century before was now a cause of maintaining this world liberty. Behind the mustering that talent, the drilling in rehearsal to round out the whole, there lies a wholesome tale—a tailed filled with hints to workers for the soldiers otherwheres, and a story that gives its lessons of what the Y men are doing for the Colored troops and what, in turn, these troops will do. At Camp Sherman, to begin at the beginnings of the tale, there is an entire Y. M. C. A. building—"hut" is the word they apply to these, though they are far from "huts" this slide of the acas, indeed—devoted to the Colored soldiers. Y. M. C. A. unit comes in for its full share of whatsoever the others receive, and rest assured the bounty is a plenteous one. Keeping 'Em in Good Spirits of it, in maintaining the contentment of the soldiers, keeping them in good spirits in playtime hours, keeping them from that bane of all camp commanders—the homeliness—is the work of the entertainment committee of the "X." This committee divides its labor into three distinct sorts, each, then, with the help of eyes, into the auduities served. To develop the talent already in the camp is its first and perhaps most important phase. It is here that the Colored soldiers will come to the fore, providing entertainment not for themselves alone but for the entire cantonment. Again, motion pictures are arranged for parts of the big encampment. Then, thirdly, outside talent is brought in. To get the material for the programs built by the first of these has been no easy matter. The uniring Y workers assigned the especial task go through the companies, search over the regiments, and pick out all talent they may learn of. It isn't easy to get wind of these things; men are many times more nervous here; men will perhaps hesitate to perform in public, especially if they know officers will be in the audience gathered around, and particularly where they know that their audience will be with them for months and months, and JOIN THE SUPREME Royal Circle of Friends A MODERN AND PROGRESSIVE SECRET FRATERNAL ORDER Operating in all the States of the Union and the District of Columbia on the Lodge plan.

SALE EVERY DAY. Tribal Chief THE WOMAN'S PAGE so any silp-up won't be forgotten over night. However, when the Y workers among the Colored regiments, stepping across the barrack room, happen to hear William L. Sullivan, a kitchen liby, busy at kitchen police, singing in full rich minor keys, "Way Down Upon the Sawnee River," they linger and loiter and enjoy, and then show the two happy soldiers that to keep such inart from the other Sammites is salish and not at all "doing one's bit" to the full. So, again, when a Colored soldier is salish, or barjo for whining away the evenings on the company street or near quarters, it doesn't take a Sherlock Holmes to know that that man loves music and so find what he does best with these. And so with the other requirements of the black soldiers, a talent, squirrelly picked, is filed in a list that is carefully carded and organized. From that list then is drawn what variety is required for any stated program, but especially for the minister's duties, which are highly in demand at such time, for the Colored Summite is a happy, joy-loving soul, and he does know how to entertain, not only his own regiment, his own face; but if any part of the camp is not well equipped, and the Y calls on those men. If any interest in the towns near by wants an entertainment to raise funds for certain war ends, rest assured that the Y calls on those men all. Nor is it always only please shows—not by a very, very urgent deal. Give Operas and Class Plays Out of the talent in the monster cantonment the Y. M. C. A. at Camp Sherman has given operas, middle class plays, such things as, say vaudeville sketches—that is, monologues, quartettes, and the like. And If the Colored soldier is not on the program he is part of the audience, if he is not at all. When the school of the line gives a smoker for company funds the Y will draw from this talent for variant to the chitchat; if a Negro regiment entertains it does the same. But, to re-emphasize, aside from doing their own share in providing entertainment, these Colored soldiers "same" to some splendid entertainments provided through the Y's themselves. When Sammi gets "over there"—as he's so eager to do—the good French folk will do what they can for customs and entertainments vary with the occasion, won't at all mind being entertained every so often by Americans, entertaining in American ways, "Over there" they may be movies, but not "over there" they may be actors, "Over there" there may be feast actors, but the wit is of a different type. No Cause for Worry Drop in at the mess hall—perhaps in the squad room—and, proper hours, other entertainment is on. Some time the entertainment is on. Dance in Chilloutie for which the Y put on a "bones" performance in intermission. The thing was such a stupendous success that when, shortly after, a full-fledged minstrel show was given at the camp auditorium the star was occupied, and many others wishing simply couldn't get into the house. Interesting features, born of military regulation, attend these performances, none the less. The men must, of course, be returned by 10:30, and so performances here do not await more time. The start at 6:30 or at latest 7:00 of clock. And the variety of good things open to the white man and the black man who care just to come in and enjoy them! Every one of the Y buildings has its own talent, puts on performances, and goes on and on and again. Just the big "sings," as they are known—they are most delightful. Again, twice a week, in each building, there are motion pictures. These movies' are billed from building to building as where competition might be most keen. Only down at heart Sammo knows this long, long time, that in addition to what the individual Y. M. C. A. "but of his societ may be provided, there is also "something doing" for him at the big auditorium every night. At the camp, too, these sometimes aren't allowed to lose their interest because of using that home talent, exertion, or training. The competition the Y. M. C. A. has provided for introduction of no end of outside talent. Sunday Afternoons Sunday afternoons, for example, two performances at least by outsiders are billed for the auditorium. Sunday night there's a "sing" and lecture. Special occasions they may vary on this; for example, at Christmas, in view of the big community "sing," under the direction of the Interarranged its plans as not to contend. The outside talent is showing if nothing else did, how the heart of the nation is with Sammilo, and there is nothing it won't do for him. Great enterprises send entire troupes down there, they paying all expenses. Already the camp is hardly a three-hour in its east and magnitude; that is to say, and the entertainment absolute free of charge. One great vaudeville circuit—Editor Keith's—sent twenty-two acts in all, and the Y. M. C. A. records show 25,000 men in different auditoriums come to see them. The Cinematt Symphony Orchestra has already been twice to Camp Sherman; prices are made to simply cover exact minimum costs of the trip. Giant basket ball games to determine championships, notable boxing contests, are hold that Sam may enjoy. Where Sammie goes he is looked on even when away out on the range. There, on the alloy range, two tents are provided the Y workers, that these may go about with the men. They not alone look after little practical needs of Sam, but they cheer him up, fill him with enthusiasm, "pep"—make him enjoy soldiering and feel the real lure and "thrill of it" that he does in the big work of peace time at home. Reserve. And Sammie calls he does feel results—quickly, keenly, and he does come to anticipate them, look forward to them. Drop in at Camp Sherman, and the soldier you know, he he black man or white, is apt to suggest very first thing: "It's down and see what's on next at the Y." He wants you to stay, to attend, to enjoy with him. He knows it's a performance which is a treat. He knows that not alone he, but you, will never have an evening filled to grim the fire with something so much the worth it, but go forth yourself and be witness. Go when you will, where you will, at the big cantonment, and we are willing to guarantee that you'll return finding the soldiers contented, happy, cager for the day's work—and eager, too, for play hours, not because of wanting to be in the city, but because of very pardonable eagerness for the rise of curtain on the evening's program down at the X. Pouring Into Our Office The response to the appeal of the Defender to send subscriptions to the soldiers has touched a tender spot in the hearts of the people. Subscriptions are coming in from every section. Where the names are not supplied the Defender is pleased to supply names of soldiers to the people. The Defender carries more news of Race soldiers than any two other papers published. Not only are the boys anxious to read what's going on back home, but they are anxious to have the home folks read of their progress in the field. Much of the success and growth of the Christian Science church is due to the fact that every member is at once an agent and booster for Science literature. If every reader of the Defender would become a booster for the Christian Science movement, the most elaborate compilation of news entitled by a Race newspaper, not only would every soldier keep in touch with what is going on, but there would soon be more than one million readers to the paper. Having an interest in helping to spread the Defender, you are not only helping others, but you are helping yourself. TO HAVE NEW SCHOOL Delray, FLA., April 12.—The directors of the Anna T.

Posed especially for the Chicago Defender. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER ALDERMAN ANDERSON AS THOMPSON FLOOR LEADER With two aldermen, the Race in the Second ward is in the most unique and strategic position of our people in any section of the United States. Much in the way of leadership is now expected of us in the ward by reason of our opportunity and political power. The new alderman, Major Robert R. Jackson, will be installed in his new position April 22. The Race now starts on its new and enlarged political future under the most happy and auspicious circumstances. Indications now point to new and still higher opportunities for our Race to render valuable and efficient public services to our friends and the city in which we live in the possible selection of one of our Race as the administrator of the council in the person of Alderman Louis B. Anderson of the Second ward. With his legal experience and ability, his tactful and diplomatic temperament, his wide acquaintance in office and with civic leaders, in this position, he has been appointed council Alderman Anderson is splendidly equipped to bring increased prestige to our Race and to distinguish Race leadership and management in the upper circles of the Republican race and the larger public affairs of Chicago. That this is no faint dream and vain hope of the Race admirers of Alderman Anderson, because of his substantial and unassuming successes in the city council, is the fact that in the political arena among the political leaders of the city council, he is now under favorable consideration and discussion for this high and new honor for our Race. Speaking of the new political developments in the council's party management, the Chicago observance only a few days ago. "Alderman M. A. Michaelson (frish), the present spokesman, retires with the present council and its replaced by an outspoken opponent of the city administration. The only Republican alderman in a position to come forward as the council mouthpiece for the council would fall on Anderson. Louis R. Anderson, the "Negro" alderman of the Second ward. Gossip today in the council lobbies was that the choice as Thompson leader in the council would fall on Anderson. Anderson has political opportunities and developments for our Race to render the highest services to our city and party, there should be absolute unity in the ranks of the Race in order that our people might reap the benefits of the greatest number of the masses, who must suffer terribly in the future if they allow themselves to be divided through the ambitions and jealousies of soft-spoken agueses, always willing to sacrifice and sell the power of the people in division for personal self and political slander. Those who seek to dissipate the power of our Race in internal factional strife and contests in this situation will meet with increasing political disfavor and the hands of the people outraged by a misguided leadership which seeks to rule or ruin. Every Race man should stand united behind Alderman Anderson for the now opportunities and service which he is opening for his Race. FREED OF CRIMINAL San Angelo, Texas, April 12—Robert Dooley, charged with criminal assault upon Lena Hoelcher (white) at Rowena on July 15, 1917, was acquitted following a court order to return a jury to return a vordict of not guilty. Four hours after the defense had gone to trial, Dooley was free, following the action of Judge Dubols, who sustained the defense's argument that the defense had violated the man, as nowhere in the review of the case was there any testimony given to corroborate the statements of Lena Hoelcher with that of other witnesses. Local feeling is generally believed to be a victim of a frameup. Authorities here are scenting perjury and seeking the guilty parties involved. Domestic Pets Dangerous The United States public health service, in collaboration with attendees to the sanitary dangers from pet-attaches pets" and emphasizes the role that they may play in the transmission of disease especially among children. In support of this statement an instance is cited of a fatal case of smallpox in an infant in arms. The nearest case of the disease was in a house that was not social or neighborly intercourse between the families. But a pet dog in the infected family happened also to be on friendly terms with the family when the infant was attacked with the disease. "In no other way," the report continues, "could the source of infection be explained, than that the dog, the small puppy family, carried the virus of the disease to the neighbor's baby. Similar instances have been noted before in connection with smallpox transmissions, but this case has been Incriminated as carriers of plague infected fleas—cases of bubonic plague so contracted having been observed by public health officers working in research and in household pets also have been charged in certain instances with the responsibility of carrying the infection of diphtheria, scarlet fever and other communicable diseases as well as various intestinal parasites." The department of health many times has called attention to the danger attendant upon keeping animal pets in city homes and flats. And in this connection it has been urged that it is not to the animals themselves to be kept in city homes, but to the conditions where the outdoor air and freedom of exercise needed cannot be obtained. But when the possible health manace is taken into consideration, the pleasure derived from the presence of the pets may after all cost much more than the pleasure of the question is with us all the time there is just now another that is also greatly worth while. Food conservation is now of prime importance. Are dogs and cats worth the food they consume? This, along with their being sources of annoyance to the neighbors, makes it indeed questionable as to the wisdom of continuing the practice of keeping them in our city homes.

F. K. Ethridge (white), state inspector of local exemption boards, made an interview with the church that "The Church of God in Christ" has been liberally supplied with money from its headquarters in Los Angeles, Cal., which is supposed to control the church system throughout the country.

Wins Debate Over Both Howard and Atlanta Nashville, Tenn., April 12—In the triangular debates between Fisk, Howard and Atlanta universities on April 5 Fisk developed unusual strength and defeated Howard university in Washington and Atlanta university in Nashville. The subject debated by all three of the schools was, "Resolved, That Universal Compulsory Military Training Should Be Adopted by the United States as a Permanent Policy." In Washington Fisk argued the negative side and won the decision by a unanimous vote, the judges being Hon. Frederick W. Dallinger, M. C.; Hon. Louis F. Post, assistant secretary U. S. Bureau of Labor, and Prof. Chas. B. Hill of Georgetown University. The Fisk speakers were Jasper T. Atkins, '20, and Benjamin F. Gordon, '19. In Nashville Fisk argued the affirmative side of the same subject debated in Washington and won a 2 to 1 decision. Edward N. Beasley, 18, and Joseph H. Berry, 19, represented Fisk, and Joseph H. Carey, 19, pastor Vine Street church; Dr. G. W. Dyer, professor of economics and sociology, and Dr. Edwin Milms, professor of English language and literature, Vanderbilt university. The coach for Fisk is Isaac Fisher, the well known writer. Last year under his training Fisk won her first victory, but not only has she won on both sides of the question, but it was remarked by a number of persons at the Fisk-Howard debate that Fisk is the first school to defeat Howard in Washington. So thoroughly do the Fisk students believe in their coach that they insisted on being permitted, without help from anyone, to participate in the expenses of the trip of the coach to and from Washington so that he might be with the team. At Fisk on the night of the two wounded the enthusiasm was unbound Citizens Aid Charity Home New Orleans, La. April 12—Citizens here have rallied to an urgent call for help made by C. H.

The unfavorable impressions in the lives of the young generation made by individuals which we come in personal contact with the two-year plan, and the records obtained from students who had finished such courses, will be to those who pursue the full four-year course. It has been conceded by persons in authority that the inflow on the prize to the students to follow such a course is especially noted in the ranks of the indolent. The many disadvantages and handicaps which students have been caused by this plan are one of the main mentions against its existence. The very same handicaps his activities with the museum course, and seeks to accomplish in two years what he could not actually attend. The fourth is, of course, the fourth, is sufficient evidence to curse this educational hoodwink. To endeavor to cram into a half-hearted student four years may be regarded as an impossible and send such a student into this great commercial age of ours with be termed an "education on crutches." Universities of higher training have absolutely refused to acknowledge the credentials of such courses, and in many cases have refused to train the two-year training plan are forced to return to school in order to gain proper recognition in such institutions. John has served well its purpose with the course, and he has taken the course as a side line in order to fit themselves for places in the commercial field that have already been trained. In the event that the students of our Race generally misconstrue the main purpose of the plan and use it as a conventure to pursue courses of a technical or academic nature, they are handicapped in the event that the greatest field is greatly narrowed to their interest and they cannot be expected to pursue courses of a technical or academic nature, so that of sufficient credentials and training. In the case of Dr. Funnelle Emanuel, who after twenty-five years' absence from active school life desired to obtain entrance in a medical college to attend a four-year course, she had only to present her credentials which she had obtained by attending a four-year course and was given immediate recognition. While in many cases, had she selected the two-year course, she had not been the result and in order to obtain a proper hearing she would have been forced to return to school and complete the prescribed four-year course. She was known among ambitious students as the "Council of Solid Ivories, or the Last Resort of the Flunks," but the ridicule does not seem to serve its purpose sufficiently, as is demonstrated by the number of indolent students who seek enrolment in this department.

In other words, if we say nothing and do nothing it will be assumed that we aro satisfied with what we have, and that there is no just cause for complaint on our part. If we have grievances we cannot have them remedied if we do not make them known, In this way we will be contributing to. the creation of a public sentiment which will ulti= mately remedy the evils of which we complain, But if an attempt is made on our part to draw the race line in politics, it will have a tendency to retard and prevent, rather than to encourage and promote, the objects and purposes desired. In a re- cent political campaign one of the candidates gave expression in a public communication to the following: “This movement, composed of the most representative men and women of the ward, is here to stay, and demands that wherever the Race is numerically in the majority, whether in the precinct or in the ward, there the Race shall control,” The above is an unwise and an unfortunate expression and should never have been used. The colored American cannot afford to draw the color line in politics, or support, countenance or encourage any one in an effort to do so. That is what we have continually and consistently condemned and denounced in the Democratic party. The Democratic is the party that is chiefly and primarily responsible for racial proscription, political dis- crimination and official segregation. We deny that this is a white man’s government simply because the white people are in the majority. On the contrary, we claim that it is or it should be a government of all classes of which the citizenship is composed, without distinction or discrimina- tion based upon differences of race, color, nationality or religion. This, we contend, is the true and genuine type of Democracy. Consequently a colored American has as much right as a white American to aspire to a position in localities where the whites are in a majority, In like manner a white American has as much right as a colored American to aspire to a position in localities where the colored people are in the ‘majority. Then again, the fact must not be overlooked that ours is a govern- ment of parties, Persons are elected or defeated for affice, or should be, on account of their political or party affiliations and not on account of their race identity. Let us suppose the Democrats nominated a colored man in a locality in which the colored people were in the majority and the Republicans nominated a white man in the same locality; according to the logic set forth by the candidate above quoted it would be the duty of the colored voters of that locality to ignore party lines and vote for the colored candidate solely on account of his race identity, which means, of course, that the white people of that locality would be exe) pected to vote in a solid mass for the white candidate for the same reason. An issuo of this sort is unwise, mischievous and dangerous, for by raising the color line the ultimate harm resulting therefrom will overbalance any temporary advantage that may be secured. opted the slogan “I Wil!" rothing too bis; or too great | city.
