THE AWAKENING OF THE NEGRO The condition of the Negro business men in Chicago today should be a warning to every Race-loving Negro in the United States TO GET TOGETHER. Bpcause during the past fifty years those who have lived im Chicago have made MILLIONAIRES amonpjevery nationality known to civilization that offered thom the least bit of encouragement for their patronage and they have also mado a PAUPER of every Negro who dared to enter into competition with thess people for our trade. The reaults of our loyalty to the other fellow find ua today without any State|Banks, Legal Reserve Life Insurance Companies, Fire Insurance Companies, Wholesale Houses of any kind whatever, Department Stores, Laundries, First Glass Hotels and various other business establishmerjts necessary for the upbuilding of a Race Within the next five yoars more than SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS of First Mortgages will become due on homes that at the present time ara occupied by our people. Now that the other fellow has rev moved his MASK and notified us that not a single mortgage will be renewed, thon fet us begin building finane cial institutions today in order that they may be strong enough to save cur homes for our children, LIBERTY LIFE To OUR RESCUE * The LIBERTY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY of} ILLINOIS is going to be to the Negrose what the other Life Insurance Companies are to the white race| a medium through which they can obtain cheap money on approved securities.

The success of Standard Life of Atlante, Gay and the North Carolina Mutual of Durham, N. C., Is aufficignt proof that our men aro capable of managing large financtal institutions. Life Insurance Companiex of the United Statea control more money than all of the National Banks, State Banks and Private Barks combined, The.laws governing the Insurance companies ere!eo much more rigid than any other branch in the financial world that a failure of a lifo insurance company organized under the OLD LINE or LEGAL RESERVE PLAN of the various states is zimost unteard of.

All present enjoyed the Colleen's music and refreshments of the course of the day in progress until a late hour, when "Home, Sweet Home" was played. "Jim Crow" cars must go. The fight is on, and the people throughout the United States are urged to write letters of protest against the un-American and "inconstitutional" method of segregating the people of our group in run down, ramshackle, insanitary cars. When the question came before the house of representatives a short time ago, and only twelve members voted in favor of abolishing the "Jim Crow" a number of daily southern papers commented editorially, and one or two southern congressmen stated that our people desire "Jim Crow" cars. Such schools should be "nailed to the cross." The Chicago Defender urges a bombardment of letters, to the various members of congress, and particularly the interstate commerce committee. Washington, D. C., and Chairman Will H. Hays, Republican national committee, called the "NationalEqual Rights League" of which Wm. Monroe Trotter is secretary, sent the following letter to Chairman Hays during the meeting of national Republican committee this week: There is a general feeling among Colored American citizens that the party in their desire to party frees from Race proscription. It is widely thought that the party enjoying the support of the overwhelming majority of the Colored population is to support and to carry out the desires of the Race as regards the abolition of Color discrimination and the rights without any line drawn or distinction made for race, color or previous condition is still a recognized right.

It happens the grave issue for all Colored congressmen is to be settled by congress. The three major violations of democracy which the Race seeks to have corrected in the race or readjustment are segregation, disfranchisement, worst form of segregation is the Jim Crow car. As to interstate travel this is under federal jurisdiction. It is very moment a general railroad railway is built, the opportunity is at hand, therefore, to correct this major prosecution, and by simple enactment. The Republican majority has the interstate commerce authority to be colored Race by ignoring the wrong. "The issue on this great wrong will be settled, one way or the other this condition years to come," the president conditioned on the loss because of the Republican party's attitude in the senate, the party having already defeated the Race in the Senate, and the president about to rob our Race of this cardinal right of world democracy unless you realizing that it needlessly will disillusion the party come to the resum and bring to bear on the Republicans of the senate and by your official influence cause message of an anti-color line amendment to undertake travel as Republican policy.

(Signed) PROFITABLE DAIRYING There has been and still is considerable difference of opinion on the correct age at which breed dairy heifers. This difference of opinion is also largely to differences in breeds, in which heifers are grown out and the breed is intended. Milk production in cows is considered by many of the best dairy-men as a habit. It is their ideal to milk production of milk production before she has arrived at maturity. This, of course, means, breed the heifers at the right age with any degree of success they must be of good size for large and well-developed. Cows that do not freshen do not milk or do not usually make a heavy persistent milkers as cows that are bred at an early age, and hence begin This idea of the early breeding of dairy heifers cannot be recommended indiscriminately for the reason that too many heifers over the country are much undersized for their age. Breeders an early age will then further refract, and a small, underized cow would be the result. If the heifers is well grown and developed, she should be bred at from 15 to 18 months of age. Otherwise it must that she be not bred until at from 18 to 21 months of age, of course, will vary slightly on the season of the year. Some heifers will necessarily be carried over longer rather than breed them so that they will be shown during the hot summer months. Long Lactation Period When heifers are bred early it is important that they be not bred back for some time, preferably so that they may be kept in the barn or on 14 months later than the first bred. This is believed that the length of the lactation period has much to do with the length of the following lactation period. This being true, it is important to have the milk allowed to mature more before the second period continue milking as long as possible. It is also well, if time will permit, to dry them up in time that they may be allowed to mature more before the second period continue milking. These recommendations, however, can be only general, for each dairyman has different conditions to plan for. The man producing market milk must have the milk that they will freshen throughout the year at a time that will keep this milk flow constant. Breeders who make a practice of fattening cattle for different systems of management. As well, where heifers are well developed they can probably be bred when at between 16 and 18 months of age.

THE PRIZES School Officials Here Defender Agent Called South Marshall and Wheaton Together GREATER NEW YORK COMMENT The Morning World last Wednesday concluding a Washington dispatch relating to the counter issue of southern Congressional representation raised in the Senate by Senator Moses of New Hampshire, concludes the dispatch with, "There is no possibility that the resolution will be adopted." The lines from the speech produced by the New Hampshire senator calling for a joint congressional investigation to inquire into all election matters with a view to cutting down the number of Republicans playing in the face by Republicans playing in the face relating to it is cruel. In this respect, we should remember that northern representatives are invariably the ones who start the game and then crush it. The Senate is playing in the face by Homer P. Snyder, republican representative in the House from the 33rd Congressional District. His home is in Little Falls, N. Y. He is the republican senator there, so we our voters, nevertheless, should not be allowed to represent the party of Abraham Lincoln. --- Friday morning as we read the account of the Carpenter-Beckett championship prize fight, we unconsciously watched days when big bouts were staged here came back to mind. Memories of the jaunts to Coney Island to see a big game on we came upon a passage that read like this. "Carpenter was driven to his hotel where he was the center of a crowd over a champagne supper far into the night." Shades of Prohibition! New York today presents to the lover of the people the opportunity to a place to live in as Robinson Crusoe island did. Reforms properly worked out for the people's betterment in the contrary they cannot be good. Hardem though it could have spared a few of its many "emporiaus" a mighty old London, how many times we could get an "assignment" there.

P THE CHIAGO DEFENDER NEW YORK AND BROOKLYN NEWS PAGE FIVE SAT., DEC. 13, 1919 Speakers Address Forum The members of the Frederick Douglass Forum, Brooklyn, were afforded a day of their last meeting on Dec. 4, when Horace W. Johnson, United States supervisor of the census, and Walter J. Stevens, executive secretary of the North Harlem Community House Musician, asked them to them. Mr. Stevens was the first speaker and told of his work in a most interesting manner and made a human solidarity in community work. He said he should not seek to establish castes among ourselves, for when an attack is there in our selecting of the different classes, we must work with a community spirit. Mr. Dore spoke on the census work and told of criticism heaped upon him by the police. He appointed race enumerators, but now the tide has changed and other officers are following the Brooklyn office in its position to race officers in men and women as census takers. The supervisor told of statements from our newspapers claiming that our people were not competent to lead the war. He was refuted since the highest mark made in the examination for canes was 40. He was awarded the Mars. 465 Quinney street, who received 100 per cent in her rating. The speaker also took a whack at the I. W. W.

Our people, least of all the majority of us depend on others for the opportunity of earning a living. Today, money is cheap. More money is available than the oldest inhabitants can remember. Reckless extravagance has the day. Harlemites, particularly, think it is time to pay with a smile anything from fifty dollars to two hundred dollars. We must retrench: our by-word must be clear, so that when the blow does come, we. Race will not be the chief sufferers.

Walker's Preparations cannot, in the strictest sense of the word, be called perfect. But, by contrast and comparison, are they not the closest approach to perfection the world has yet seen? We are sure you would say so if you could make a census of one hundred or one thousand ladies who use Madam Walker's system. WE ARE CERTAIN THAT NO SIMILAR GROUP OF LADIES COULD OR WOULD REGISTER THE SAME WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE. The stories that come to us not in isolated cases, but in scores and scores of instances OF SATISFACTION THAT CANNOT FIND WORDS WARM ENOUGH TO EXPRESS ITSELF ARE OVERWHELMING. Almost always the user of Madam Walker's says, "I have been using her SYSTEM years," or for one, two, three, or four years, as the case may be. Almost always they conclude with that characteristic Americanism—"There's nothing to it; if you once use Madame Walker's Preparations nothing else will satisfy." THE CHICAGO DEFENDER They believe it; they mean it; they are earnestly emphatic about it. And now what does all this earnestness and enthusiasm mean? It means that Madam Walker's System and her ten preparations for the hair and face have come very, very close to that perfection for which all honest beauty culturists and toilet goods manufacturers are striving. It means that the late Madam C. J. Walker, by hard labor, close application and wise supervision, instilled in the minds of her thousands of workers and agents a spirit of unstinting and wholehearted SERVICE. And so, by this personal solicitation in respect to her agents she has brought about a unity of action and a harmony of result without parallel. It means that their work is a life-work-a thing of personal pride and personal honor, which keeps the Madam Walker standard rising steadily, month after month, and year after year. It means that the buyer gets in Madam C. J. Walker's Preparations the closest approach to positive perfection that is humanly possible.

FRI. & SAT., DEC. 18, 19, 20. 2:30 to Midnight THIRTY-FIRST BLOCK HAMMOND & SONS VENDOME "BIGGEST AND BEST" ON STATE ST. PAGE FIGHT "The Eyes of Youth," this week's offering of the Lafayette Players at the Avenue theater, is a great play; it PETER B. and is unique in the manner of staging. A revolving stage is being used to accommodate the action of the play, and those of the Avenue's patrons who failed to see the offering during its long run in the show will surely enjoy it, for nothing like it in either story or has ever been done on the stage. some respects, in to "On Tony Lancaster the scenes enacted in the woman's act of prowess is reversed, due to a Yogi and his prowess, but her heroine sees not only the future, but several possible futures, and at the final selects the one which no woman uses, but which is indicated as the true heroine, is mostly all done in a visionary brought about by the crystal ball. The girl is first shown as a school teacher, deserted by her unloyal lover and disillusioned with the school board. Then, in strongly conjunctive hands, she successful Parisian opera singer, victim of the impressario, who had promised to marry her, and who had also abandoned her. The two last episodes show her in a marriage for money; they show the victim of which she is the victim of trumped-up evidence in a divorce trial, and later a street scene in New York, where she is seen as a drug user, from which she is seen as her true lover. You will see by all this that the story is distinctly novel. THE GRAND "The Smarter Set," headed by Salem Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt, is still doing capacity at the Grand. It is as it should be, for "Children of the have had in man the best thing that we have had in man," he says, stars, who are personally responsible for the book and lyrics, and Jim Vaughn, writer of the music and director of the orchestra, cannot be impressed with this offering has posed be. There are several individuals in the line-up who are not featured, but who show marked ability. Many of the brightest stars of the past were graduated, and this offering is so plentiful. In this connection attention is drawn to the work of Miss Grace Howell. She is extremely clever and has a dashing manner that speaks good for her future if she is properly an educator, a winning smile, and is full of the "personality" that gets the ticket buyers when it is not overplayed. She has a fair singing voice, dances far above the singing and delivers what she has been able to like an old-timer. There are a dozen good, capable, hard-working chorelists. The inner side of every cloud is bright and shining; I therefore turn my clouds about And always wear them inside out To show the lining. with this company, and it would take to much space to cover them in detail, wonder where the Whitneys got them. Nothing but the most favorable comment is possible as far as the "children of the Sun" is concerned, and the best proof of the statement is what is known as performance. Many people are skeptical when a "Racial" attraction is advertised, and a three weeks' stay has always proved a week too long. In this instance, however, there has been no reason to believe that the stay far during this, the final week, and it is what managers and press agents are pleased to call a bang-up engagement. The writer opines that it will stand a three weeks' run in the spring, and it will be gone again before the end of the season. Salem Tutt Whitney, J. Homer Tutt, et al, can rest assured that the thousands who have witnessed a performance of their new play are from now and henceforth "Smarter Set" fans. Here's hoping that the balance of the tour will be as successful as has this record breaking three weeks' engagement at Chicago's favorite play. THE MONOGRAM The bill here this week is right up to the standard. Tim Owlsley the Talker, one of the clearest singles in vaudeville, is the headliner. He has a monograph, a book of original, full of timely subjects and real philosophy, sandwiched in between some real clever unpublished song numbers and delivered in typical Tim Owlsley style. He goes from start to finish, with popular and topical songs, is also here and making a splendid impression with her clever work. Edwards & Edwards, always popular with Monogram audiences, have co-written songs and the most important hits. The body is a feature of this act, which is lively and full of pop. Laura Smith & Bailey are also playing a return engagement with the success. The new single is a blunt, blunt partner are repeating their former popularity. It is some bill. "SCARLET DAYS" David Wark Griffith's new picture production, "Searlet Days," which will be the attraction at the Vendome theater next Thursday, Friday and Saturday, 19 and 19 and is a story of California in the 1950s. It is based largely upon historical facts, as the central figure, called Alvarez in the film, is really Joaquin Murielz a sort of Robin Hood of the thirteenth century, robbing the rich and giving to the poor. Around this chivalrous desperado Mr. Griffith has woven a story to furnish plenty of thrills and heart-ringing town, where Robin Noll quiesces of the dance hall. She has a daughter in an eastern seminary, ignorant of her mother's past. On the very day robbery returns, her becomes involved in light with another member of the hall. Her opponent dies suddenly from heart failure and Rosy, accused of killing her, is about to be burned by Alvarez appears and her brother, the story portrays the successful efforts of the bandit and a blue-blood from Virginia, to save the girl from the clutches of a bully named Bagley. The story captures fight and the sacrifices of Alvarez. Richard Barthelness is Alvarez and Carol Dempster, Clarine Seymour and Eugene Besser are also in the cast. It is a Paramount-Artefact picture. LOUIE KNOWS Louis G. Azorsky, treasurer for the Smarter Set Co., whose smiling countenance is putting the patrons of the Grand in good humor before they pass through the lobby on the way in. It is his work that has earned him his line. He at one time had charge of the front of the house at the Alvin theater, one of the biggest and best in Pittsburgh, Pa., and from time to time with many successful enterprises. He is particularly pressed with what he has been seeing during the Smarter Set's present engagement, and doxales that never before in his career he has had such apprehensive as well as such fine-looking judgments come under his observation. Will Masten's Holiday in Dixieland is still a thriller between the Orpheum theater, Clinton, Iowa, and the Cecil Mason City Iowa. "BROKEN BLOSSOMS" "BROKEN BLOSSOMS" **Broken Blossoms,"** considered by many the greatest of all the Griffith productions is coming to the Owl Theater for three days next week, starting on Thursday and ending on Saturday. The episodes of "Broken Blossoms" involve three people—Battling Burrows, a bully of the London slums; a young Chinese poet named Cheng Huan, who has come out of the Par East to spread to other peoples the grief of losing a girl of 15, who when but a mere babe was thrust into the arms of Battling Burrows—a bundle of white rags—the gift of one of Battler's girls. The scenes are carried from China into the alleys of London's Limehouse district. When he is drink or out of temper the Battler, r prize fighter, visits his rage upon this piteous child. Her eyes are wide, her mouth roowfully around the crooked alley, Concerned with its own sins, Linchouse has no time to bother about Lucy and her sorrows. But there is one who does care. As Lucy creeps down the alley, she looks at one who looks after her with a sort of holy adoration. This plaining one is the Chitmanman. His highest hopes beaten down, all that remains to him of beauty and the light is his wristful child who passes by his store. The Chinaman comes too late to the scene: he finds only a still, broken little figure, her last lonely wistful girl, who is deadly calm, as one who performs an act of sacred sacrifice, the young poet gathers the pitiful figure in his arms and carries it back through the misty fog in his poem, where the girl knew she was his wife, a flower placed tenderly in her grubby little hands he hides her a last farewell, says his last prayer to little figure of Buddha and slips out of the world of sacred dreams with a dagger in his heart. And what of the end of Battling Burrows? He was found in the morning with five bullet holes in his body, Cheng Huan's love-gift before he took the little girl to her last earthly abode. "HIS DIVORCED WIFE' A photoplay in the picturesque role of a Kentucky mountain blacksmith will be shown at the States theater, where the star appears in his newest Universal film adapted to the screen from the magazine story, "An Altar on Little Thunder." This picture will undoubtedly please the many admirers of Salisbury, but it will not be adapted to excellent advantage by the cameraman. Douglas Gerard was the director. The picture tells the old, old story of a poor, honest man who wins the love of a good woman and triumphs over much misfortune, but in the telling of the story Elmer Elliot Peake, the author, has employed many unique situations, supplied many dramatic incidents and created much which build up the interest of the play. Salisbury has done some commendable work in the role of Ash Whipple, "the best blacksmith in the country." He portrays another of those characterists, the man who is in the part the rugged goodness and gentle humor of an upstanding mountaineer. The ability of the supporting cast is entirely adequate. Alice Elliott plays opposite the star in the role of Charles West, Charles LeMoine, Alfred Allen, Raymond Gallagher and Little Mickey Moore. THE FIRING LINE If there is a more cheerful elbow-crooker in the show business than our external friend, Cliff Green of Green & Bailey, he must be and somewhere that his light don't shine. St. Johns, N. P. Well, Old Pat: How goes it? Well, I am satisfied with life; I am up here in the land of Stochel and other liquor. The regular orchestra is on strike, so the theater got the worst ponition one they could find and they made a bad act worse. Say, Antonio I have a guitar and absorbed two quartets, and it only costs $3 per quart. Boy, if I just had you and Andrew Eishop here what I would do along the entertaining line would be to send regard to Sylly de Russ still hitting the high spots along the Stroll?

From your friends, Rock Island, Ill. Dear Tony: Honest to goodness, you are some hard bird to catch. I came into Chicago at midnight on Saturday and didn't leave until Sunday at 11 noon. I was trying to locate you, but you refused to be located. I stuck my card through the keyhole of your door; I bet that you were hid away in one one's cellar. Sally Means-Goldman, my wife and myself were all three disgusted at having traveled so many miles to see the Old Roll Top Man and then to get disappointed. However, I trust that you were honest to me. Whispered we may play the Grand during Christmas week. Well, regards to the bunch for you and our regards to the bunch for us.

I am a gonius and can write sad songs as well as rag-time songs. My sad song is named "When Mother Saw You." When Mother Saw You, Say What For Nor Frown," and my last rag song is "The Buffalo Fish Cake." Please send me some advice to help me publish Kids. Reply—Friend Easy! You will have to send me a set of lyrics and a lead sheet to what songs you would like to interest the publishers in. I think the best way to do that is judging from the title. It almost brought tears to my eyes when I read it, and I think that the part that says "I teach a great lesson" teaches a great lesson. The "Buffalo Fish Cake" should be a strong number, although it might get panned if introduced into select society. No, I don't. I teach a great lesson. Tony Jackson in the embryo.

I own my own drum, but am not able to play it. I have 367 pounds. Can also sing, but don't like to, as my range is not wide. I think I would shine in comedy. Do you think you can do anything for me?—Emmanuel—Swaby. I am afraid that there is nothing that I can do for you. In fact, I don't think that Lyda Pinkham could either, and she is supposed to be able to help anything. Two days' work each year is not much for money. I must take a heap of money to live in Carbuncle, but you weigh enough to take a long fast once in a while. In that you have the adductor muscles of many of the dauvielle actors that I know don't do well for not wanting to sing, although it is curious that with all your weight your range is narrow. It should have broad- "A FOOL THERE WAS" Robert Hillard's most brilliant and successful vehicle, "A Fool, There Was," which probably had a longer run than any play in recent years, will be the offering of the Lafayette Stock Company next week at the Avenue, and it bids fair to be the sensational event of the company's season. There was which is by Porter Emerson Browne may be classed as the study of a woman vampire. It was suggested by Rudyard Kipling's poem: "A fool there was and he made his prayer. To a fool and a bone and a hank of hair." In Mr. Browne's play we have an American man of affairs of such marked ability that he is sent by the American government to the English government. He is married and adores his wife and six-year-old child. His home life in all aspects is ideally happy. He is to leave his wife and child in America immediately before his absence abroad. Immediately before the ship that will take him across the Atlantic, the vampire woman puts in appearance. One of her victims, a desperate young fellow, is waiting for her neck to be cut in her passionate strength she bends forward her neck and says, "Kiss me." Instead of doing so the young idiot fires a bullet into his head. The audience is allowed to understand that he is crazy, owing to her deserition of his life and in death he was her "foof." The mere sight of this vampire woman, an exchange of glances begins. He knows of the suicide of his husband, and of the woman's history. Yet, after that single glance, he can hardly control himself in parting with his wife and his friend. This friend is a wealthy young broken man, never told his love, but remained devoted to the wife after her marriage. Later episodes disclose the facts that the vampire woman in London, that he travelled with her in Europe, forgetful of his family ties, and that he returned to society, survived by society, relieved of mislead the President, though a seat in the cabinet might have been his reward, and separated from his wife and child, and introduced to the early stages of his degeneracy as a brandy drinker, conscious of the calamities but powerless to cut loose from the vampire woman, calling it love; but his friend in a terrific scene denounces him for what he is. Finally, after a year the "Fool" woman returns to gloit over the wreck, brandy-sodden mind, and body, stroyded. His one chance for emption is hopeless when the vampire woman returns to gloit over the wreck, leaving her triumphant over the body of another "Fool." ened along with the rest of your anatomy. Though you think that you would shine in comedy, I would advise you to stick where you are and take a job in a barber shop. Results will be the best.

CAIRSES ON THE RUMI Bernard Bernie, a boy ago. We thought we would save it for toward the last and see if we could not feel this ginkg on some of his ideas. But it now seems hopeless, so she she am: St Paul, Munn. Hello, Tony. Before catching me train for Spokane, Wash., here's a little dotted up over in the Twint Cities, dedicated to Buzzi Barton, my ex-partner: Having drunk so much he could drink no more. So he fell asleep with a troubled brain To dream he was riding on a hell- bound train. The engine with blood was red and And brilliantly lit with a brimstone lamp. An imp, or fuel, was shoveling bones While the furnace rang with a thousand groans. The boiler was filled with lager beer. And the himself was engineer. The passengers made such a motley crew. Church member, atheist, gentle and Jew; Handed young ladies and withered old hags. Yellow and black men, red, brown and white. And all chained together—a horrible sight. While the train dashed on at an awful pace. And a hot wind soocured them on hand and face. Wilder and wilder the country grew As faster and faster the engine flow. Louder and louder the thunder crashed And brighter and brighter the light- ning flashed. Hotter and hotter the air became Till the clothes were burned from each quivering frame. Then in the distance thore rose such a yell. And begged the devil to stop the train. But he perched about and sang with glee. And laughed and joked at their agony. "My faithful friends, you have done great things." "And the devil can never a pay day shirk. "You have hulled the weak—you have robbed the poor. "And a starving brother turned from your door. "You have lald up gold where the canker rists. "You have free vent to your fleshy lusts. "You have justice scorned and corruption sown. "And trampled the laws of nature down. "You have drunk and rioted—murdered and lied— "And mocked at God in your hell-born pride. "You have paid full fare, so I'll carry you through. "For it's only right you should get your due. "Why the laborer always expects his why. "So I'll land you safe in the lake of fire. "Where you fire shall roast in the fire that rest. "And my impms torment you more and more. Then Buzz awoke with an agonized cry. His clothes soaked with sweat and naps standing high. And he prayed as he never had prayed before To be saved from drink and the devil's power.

HAMMOND Owner PICKFORD, ELBA, FOUNTAIN, of PHOENIX and VENDOME THEATERS "THE FALSE CODE" A New York maiden, anxious to use her recently elected vote on the presidential election, has written to Pathe Exchange, Inc., inquiring why Frank Koenan doesn't run for President of the United States. "Not that I want to displace our own Woodrow Wilson," she says, "but I think he deserves a vacation, and I can't think of any one who could kill Frank Koenan better than Frank Koenan, can you? "Look at him! He hasn't an iron jaw! A kindly eye? A noble brow? An alert brain? And dignified—look at his gray hair! Think of how spifty he's look in a frock coat and silk hat to cheering crowds on Fifth Avenue? "Can't be erase? isn't he making every one who has heard him at all those personal appearances he has been making in theaters and its conventions, etc., why he sticks to the silent forms." "He wouldn't he lost to the screen as one of its biggest stars, either. Every time I go to the theater I see Presidential actor, I don't see Frank Keenan every time. Perhaps, because of his connection with you, he would pose exclusively for Matto Patho weekdays at the circus, thereby turning all other screen newspapers in passionate purge of envy. Mister Patho, I don't you believe that as President of these United States this actor would be as successful as our secretaries and senators are as actors' Mino is the first president to miss Miss New York's proposed candidate for president will appear at the States theater Saturday in his newest picture.

Y., Dec. 12.-Hurtig & Seamons' Social Maids are playing the week at the Gayety. It is without a doubt the best show they have seen here this season.

Billy Higgins, who has developed into a real star, will share comedy honors with Billy. Dont miss seeing both sides of this extraordinary engagement. SMARTER SET NOTES "Well, the success of this trick and manner in which it is operating can be laid to the co-operation of John A. Gibson and T. Cook, the man in an interview last week. "Mr. Gibson made it possible for Salaem and I to come out as we have. He tackles us manually and otherwise to hit the climber. To hit the gripper we offered our benefactor a third interest in the show, but with characteristic good heartedness and success our success was his pleasure. It is that other insight to the character of this fine man." The Old Roll Top Desk Man complanned Homer for giving lectures. The clever manner in which the stage is being managed and the excellent line of settings, ote, are due to the efforts of Lee A. Noa, carpenter, T. Cook, props, men of wide experience. The presentation is perfect. BIG FEED A letter arrived last week from Hamp Harper at the International theater, Kansas City, Mo. What it said had the old Roll Top Desk Man so proud of his work that dates off his 1912 calendar. It was all about a dinner that was served in honor of Miss E. B. Harper of Atlantic City, N. J., and the menu would be based on what he'd been done out that way to duck the high living. Hamp was the host, and those present aside from the guest of honor were George Brown, Bass McKellery, and Mr. John Marcelina Jiminez of Tampa, Plainfield, Cobbs and Mr. Farmer of Dallas, Tex.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER MUSIC By Nova Douglas Hott Grass, baskerian Church Choral club gave "the Tale of the Bell." by Leater, Monday evening, Dec. 1, Prof. Pedro Tinsley directing. The libretto taken from Hawthorne's "A Bell's Bellchurch" arranged in practical form by Frederick H. Monroe and with the interesting setting given it by Lester. It is modern in harmonic con- tent, with refreshing new modulations not only with descriptive chords and keeping strictly within the possibilities of each voice. Mr. Tinsley chose well in se- ecting this number and his choir was qualified to be it. It is evident he teaches his singers first of all ensemble—sing as if the entire group was one, each singer training his voice to give, as near as possible to vibrations to the note as his associate.

Empress Cooke was a pleasant surprise, for she has a soprano voice, mellow and decidedly charming, trained by the art of expression, and conditioned by the solo, "Here in the Heart of the Wilderness," was worthy of a recall, which the audience insisted upon, but not given for fear of disturbing the musical continuity of the choral work. Two organ numbers by Harry Jackson, as well as the contralto solos' by Annie Davis, were pleasing and well received. The establishment of choral clubs in the churches is to be commended and supported, for the time has come for a definite musical platform in the church, and the club seems a means to develop it. Many churches should realize that the choir is a necessary adjunct to the services when they ask for one night out of their program, every member should support him. Mr. Tinsley has a well trained choral club, one of which any church should feel not only proud, but also able to teach the courtesy due them as learners in the musical services of the church.

Turpo is an effective germicide, combining the old-fashioned remedies of turpentine (which has always been known as the best home germicide), camphor and menthol in a pure mineral base. These ingredients have long been recognized as effective remedies for treating really wonderful qualities in relieving colds and congestions.

Dr. Robinson Sues for Intrigement of Patent For a great many years Dr. E. R. Robinson has been having legal battles to establish his right to certain court patents worth up into the millions of dollars. His statement follows: "On May 25, 1900, Hon. Judge C. T. Kohlstaff handed down an opinion in case No. 24886, E. R. Robinson vs. Ch. Kohlstaff. Company and the Wells and French Company brought the intrigement of patent No. 594288 to court; provision in casting composite and other wheels, and other castings." The said opinion set forth on all molds were fitted to make finished castings being carried to the circuit court of New York on the sevent day of November, 1902, the court upheld the patent valid. "I started the same suit against against the said corporations, the Chicago City Railway Company and the Chicago Boundary Company. The declaration asks that he gains and gains made a result of using the new mold over the old, and $10,000,000. Because it was necessary to prosecute my suit on patent No. 5694 to that had no ownership and complained to the court and state's attorney, and had me indicted for playing a confidence game. This hung over my head for a judge Scanlon called for all cases that he books for a long time to come before him. I appeared with motions to quash the indictments on the grounds that they did not state what it was I had done. I also termed a confidence game. The Honorable set the matter for the sixth day of December, 1919. I appeared, but was informed that the judge was on the ground of having other cases. I hurried over and made a decision before his honor reached the bench. The case was not called, the state's attorney nor his witnesses being there. The judge refused, made no ruling. The judge resisted to give judgment by default; no one was in court except me. "The above is the status of my case and the judgments that were given on the 25th day on the 7th day of November, 1902, are clear now, for $10,000,000 and interest for 17 years." Signed, E. R. Bohnsack Calumet avenue, Chicago, IL--Adv.

Prof. Jones is well known to the musicians and music lovers of Chicago and countryside, having been the first conductor of the daily press, to ever conduct a choral in rotunda of the Federal building; one of the first to conduct school community center singing, and the first Race in Vendell Phillips High School. Mr. Jones has made a special study of the voice and choral conducting for a number of services are in such demand that we open a studio for voice on the West Side, and plans are under way to open a Side Branch.

THE POLITICAL POT By a Young Politician From all indications there will be a free for all race among the candidates for representative in the illinois legislature. Some of the politicians who have been elected as a vote on the "wet" question did not satisfy his constituents. M. T. Bailey says that he expects to "throw the ball into the court" and the associate of the Defender, is being groomed for the legislature in the First district. The organization, it is said, will not indorse any one in primary, making it a "free for all right." Over in the 14th ward, where the "brethren" have a large vote and where Rev. Carroll holds a big hand, he would not be a man for the legislature. They have a splendid chance to send a man of the Race to the constitutional convention, but, unlike the Second ward leader, they would not get together. Wake up, 14th. Out in the 3d ward citizens are still talking about ward committees and say one must be a member of the ward, and another must be the lighthouse its eyes open. A little pull, and all pull together—something surprises may happen in the 3d. "They shall not be wielded by your regiments of Chicago," he wrote, France, and many of them live in the Third. They want representation. With three men in the light there is a big chance. Nelson, "Political Pole" editor, has gone to Frankfurt, Ky., to witness the inauguration of Gov. Morrow. The "pot," however, continues to boil during his absence. Nelson has been appointed assistant corporation counsel of the city of Chicago, to succeed the late George W. Ellis. Capt Nelson is a member of the People's Movement and appointed appointments, so say the "wisecases." Warren B. Douglass, member of the Illinois legislature, was not at the speakers' table at the harmony banquet. Perhaps there was some mistake. He is too strong a man to be overlooked on such an occasion. May be the organization does not expect all of the voters to right all with the voters, and when comes to "husking" he has but few equals in this "neck of the woods." Roy Pope was called upon by Toastmaster Ed Wright at the harmony banquet for prayer. In the absence of J. Carey, Brother Pope started with the letter to the editor and continued until Brother Fields yanked his coattail. This is the first time in the history of a political meeting that a prayer was applauded. Some say if Brother Pope's prayer will have been personally demonstrated when a trial occurs, Brother Wright as ward committeeman "Honest Ed" will have to get up and hustle. The old saying, "They all, flop sooner or later," was personally demonstrated when a trial occurs, Brother Wright as ward committeeman who were present by "throwing up the sponge." Some say political leaders lured Travis into the hall of festivities and made him "eat his supporter's food." The writer was at the city council meeting Monday afternoon and while in the committee room met Alderman Jackson, Anderson, and Passmore. Anderson, Jackson, as usual, had several bills to his credit. He warden. When it comes to looking after their constituents, Mayor Thompson says they take the "palm." He seem to be "stitting pretty," like "Both House John" and "Hinky Dink." S. B. Turner says he has things sewed up in the first district. Others run, but Brother Turner seems to come out the wire like a Kentucky derby winner. Visitor Here from Buenos Aires Miss Graham formerly of this city, has returned from Buenos Aires, South America, where she has been for some eight years or more.

Chicago contains a larger number of Colored people than any similar area in the United States; these are the Urban league as stated in its annual report by the secretary, T. Arnold Hill.

As was Chicago's new total of 125,000. Ranked Fifth in 1910 "In 1910 Chicago ranked fifth among the cities of the North having large Colored populations. Today she is second only to New York and Philadelphia, by population. We also include the population of Manhattan Island, Brooklyn, the Bronx and certain other Long Island towns. The greater part of Chicago's increase in population at the close of 1918. While we have had a steady, increase of population since Jan. 1, 1919, the new arrivals have come in smaller numbers and we have been able to give more personal supervision to spend more time with individuals. Employ Many Colored Girls "Since Nov. 1 of last year the 2,815 occupate individuals used our office for a total of approximately 37,350 different times. Most of them were people look- alike in our office and the men who were in greatest respect needed vocational guidance, a friendly hand, a constructive suggestion." Mention is made of the employment by Stars-Rebuck & Co. of 1,400 Colored girls. The street at the same place there were employed last year 660 Colored girls, and the company said it was willing to again employ during this holiday period, because the girls were found, however, the less than half these were available, although wages were $2 a week higher than last year.

In intrastate travel I concede tho right of the state to say what the conditions of travel sball be, but ‘tmmediatoly tho passenger gets beyond the boundaries of the stato on a passage that involves the transporta- tion ‘beyond the boundaries of that state, und enters another state, f main: fain ‘that it is within the power, and only within the power, of the govern- ment of the United Stites to say what tho conditions of travel shall be, and that no stato in the Union has the Fight to interfere. °* Afr.

HEATING PROBLEMS Eugene J. Marshall Whenever tenants do not receive adequate heat in their apartments, there are several methods by which they can obtain relief. First, they can be given a complaint to the owner or the agent of the building. In some cases this is all that is necessary to be done because I believe that the great majority of owners and tenants are not willing to cease to their tenants. Moreover, I believe that the great majority of owners and agents are giving satisfactory service when we think of the many problems that arise, such as coal strikes, fuel shortages, government regulations, labor troubles, high prices and inferior grades of coal. Sometimes however we find agents and owners who are to blame for inadequacies. What can tenants do in such cases? One of the best things they can do is to make a complaint to the Sanitary Department in the City Hall by telephone or by a personal application. Either one of these methods will receive the best of consideration from the inspector, and the department immediately sends one of their inspectors to make an investigation and report. But tenants must bear in mind that the inspectors make their reports public, and they must find them and not according to the words or opinions of the tenants. It makes no difference whether the flat is owned by the owner or not, gives, he reports the conditions as he finds them. If he finds that the heat is not adequate, the owner is notified and if relief is not given after due notice, the owner is notified that then summary action is taken against the owner. In my next article I will discuss the best way to make a complaint to the Sanitary Department does not secure the results which the tenants desire.

It recorded the Jews in the old world that meted out to us in the rising in spite of our hands of Jews have been massacred but they were Jews. American discrimination has met them on the greed for the dollar or foothold they have. IT SEEMS TO BE a part of what we have a human football to kick out of the earth the cry for older dogs, and we find every evidence reaching out and pitting been especially unkind to them today is the most striking natives of her African colonies. What is her own country, people, those who do not rest on four corners of the earth. WHILE WE HAVE no speech has our interest at heart in the ucranian, still our sympathies get herers, are linked at least in the following words of Rabbi to his people: "There are an between the different denomination; there is the different one, really all the Jews." We know there is on earth. We meet them is: Have raised their perpetuated by their coreligionists WE WEER LATELY TOLL upraising funds to Christianize in humanizing those who now that anti-Semitics will tell sheviks. Well, if this civil wars of Jewish blood are to be exterminated—we may become Bolsheviks, but participants in a system and watches with indifferent days of the week. The sheviks arrived at a point where the. THERE IS NOTHING LIKE the God given rights of man in these wolves in sheep's clothing in Christianity, and like curd the church done to lighten gro? Has the voice of the God testest? Here and there an iso divine, fearing the wrath of man, strikes out from the should be a telling blow, but the great, or something even worse WHAT HYPOCRISY, what Sunday and fostering hate are days of the week. If this is it. It isn't a far cry from "an and mobs have been successes. The new day for the hand. No longer will the lair in the breast of either. side with the greatest number later prove to be an expert said of us. THE ABOVE CAPTION appears over an article by Rabbi A. Cohen in a recent issue of the Herald-Examiner. The troubles of this long persecuted race are still far from being over, though the social upheavals throughout the world during the past four years have done much to lessen the barbaric treatment of many subject races. In many respects the treatment accorded the Jews in the old world countries is far more severe than that meted out to us in this country. But we, like they, are rising in spite of our handicaps. Thousands upon thousands of Jews have been massacred for no other reason than that they were Jews. Americans have not gone to this extreme but discrimination has met them at every turn, and it has only been the greed for the dollar of the Jew that has given them the foothold they have. IT SEEMS TO BE a part and parcel of the human family to have a human football to kick around at will. From every corner of the earth the cry for deliverance is sent up by the under dogs, and we find every once in a while the hand of Providence reaching out and pulling down some power that has been especially unkind to those under their charge. Belgium today is the most striking example. Her treatment of the natives of her African colonies for cruelty beggars description. What is her own country now, a barren waste, and her people, those who do not rest beneath the soil, scattered to the four corners of the earth. So is the law of justice. WHILE WE HAVE no special reason to believe that the Jew has our interest at heart any more than the American Caucasian, still our sympathies go out to him and we both being sufferers, are linked at least in that respect, by a common bond. The following words of Rabbi Cohen are as applicable to us as to his people: "There are a thousand and one differences between the different denominations who live in eastern Europe; there is, however, one rally call which unites them all, 'Kill the Jew.'" We know there are many good and Christian souls on this earth. We meet them every day. But the question is: Have they raised their voice against the massacres perpetuated by their coreligionists? WE WERE LATELY TOLD that a certain denomination was raising funds to christianize the Jew. Why not spend half of it in humanizing those who pretend to be Christians? We know that anti-Semitism will tell us that most of the Jews are Bolshevik. Well, if this civilization is so constituted that oceans of Jewish blood are to be shed and half a million of Jews are to be exterminated—then I would to God that all Jews may become Bolshevik, anarchists, or anything; anything but participants in a system which preaches love on Sunday and watches with indifference wholesale murder on all the other days of the week. The situation is so horrible that we have arrived at a point where the silence of the Jew is criminal. THERE IS NOTHING LIKE LIGHT. Let every infraction of the God given rights of man be exposed to the light. Show up these wolves in sheep's clothing, serving the devil under the mask of Christianity, and like curs they will sneak away. What has the church done to lighten the burden of the Jew or the Negro? Has the voice of the Christian world been raised in protest? Here and there an isolated case can be found where some divine, fearing the wrath of God more than the scorn of man, strikes out from the shoulder and deals the demon prejudice a telling blow, but the great mass laugh and call him a fanatic, or something even worse. WHAT HYPOCRISY, what mockery, this preaching love on Sunday and fostering hate and condoning murder the other six days of the week. If this is Christianity we will have none of it. It isn't a far cry from "Kill the Jew" to kill the black man and mobs have been successful in making records in both instances. The new day for the Jew and for the black man is at hand. No longer will the lawless element find a lamb-like spirit in the breast of either. The fight isn't always won by the side with the greatest numbers and "killing the Jew" now might later prove to be an expensive pastime. The same can be said of us.

Gas, telephone, elevated and surreal public utilities have brought monopolies and having political preference, it has been on an easy to enter scheme they saw it that would enhance their earnings regardless of the walls of the taxpayers and citizens. The city traction companies is the straw that broke the cannel's back. An increase of forty per cent for one and sixty per cent for the other was too much even for a patient public to stand. After a preliminary fight a small reduction was made by the Public Utilities Commission. By buying $5 worth of tickets at one time the price per ticket would be six cents, and by buying a daughter or son receive no benefit if they wish to travel alone.

But it is their duty nevertheless, as loyal citizens, to come to the aid of class who so frequently is imposed upon. The car fare argument should be settled at once by giving the people what they are justly entitled to, a 5 cent fare. SELF-UPLIFT WITH MANY of our racial group equality has ever been a favorite subject for consideration. It has appeared to them that if they could but persuade the Caucasian to acknowledge their equal their troubles would all be happily resolved. We have known that their troubles go to meet out to rather than to seek from others. Let him whose use of love me most in loving, and likewise like that Race which for so many years has striven to prove mere equality with the other races hereafter take the lead in that noblest of all pursuits, "self-uplift," but we do need to be recognized for the worth of what we are before all else, men and women must be first to realize the divinity of our origin, and act in our own behalf, for after all, our problems can never be of as much concern to the Caucasian as they are to us. NOW READY for a better policy than that of "watchful waiting." We must be up and doing, with the old attitude of "I can't stay in circumstances—I am a victim of prejudice," replaced with the spirit of "I will ahead somehow," for the Lord does help those that help themselves. We must educate ourselves and our children in the ways of love, for God is love. The reading of worth-while literature, the association with ambitious, broad-minded others, will help for ourselves and our family. These should be characteristics of our daily life. WE CANNOT AFFORD to wait for others to look after our health. We cannot afford to wait for others to offer us schooling or anything else that is benignal. The "others" have all they can do to properly attend to their own affairs. When we have prepared ourselves, then our day of perfect peace with the world will dawn and not one moment before. IF YOU ARE GOING to get her anything for Christmas be wise and make your selection now before the stock is all picked over—a hint to the wise, etc. CHICAGO DEFENDER THAT SUPREMACY STUFF DOESN'T PAY, OLD MAN. I TRIED IT ONCE MYSELF. THIS BEING A WHITE MAN'S COUNTRY, WE ARE SUPREME, AND THE NEGRO HAS NO RIGHTS THAT WE SHOULD RESPECT. STHE WHITE SOUTH THE EX-KAISER. Condemned Arkansas Rioters Look to Chicago for Help GOV. BROUGH'S PROMISE TO LET SUPREME COURT REVIEW CASES GIVES HOPE TO ALLEGED RIOTERS By IDA B. WELLS-BARNETT The following press dispatch under date of Nov. 23, is interesting to all of our people: "Of twelve Negroes sentenced to death for participating in the uprising in Phillips county, six are scheduled to be executed Dec. 26 and six are Governor Brough, however, has announced that he will not accept the presidency of the National Equal Rights League. The Defender declared that he desired to have the Arkansas Supreme court pass on the cases of the Negroes in order that they might no doubt that they received justice." This is especially gratifying to those of us here in Chicago who are pre-occupied with the resolution we passed a few weeks ago. We have resolved and protests sent from other parts of the country simply protested against the outrage of conspiracy men to the electric chair in eight minutes to the governor of Arkansas and to the President and congress to do something to save these men, whose names are that they had organized their forces to protect the labor of their hands. as Arkansas, churches and lodges have been burned down Driven From Homes Already in Mississippi N. S. Taylor has had to leave his home and the accumulations of thirty years—without even acknowledging that he accepted the presidency of the National Equal Rights League. The Defender reported last week that a prominent educator of South Carolina, who had been a member of the community for thirty years, who had built a school which was an honor and credit to the Race and state, was driven from his home because of an organization he had appointed of an organization, and the whites demanded his resignation. Is the Race going to sit still and permit these outrages to continue without doing something to own himself? I do not believe it. What Can You Do? You ask what can you do? And my reply is, send me the money and I will show you what we can do. You push him on the sinews of war and fight. The resolutions passed by the Equal Rights League, the People's Movement, and the Negro Fellowship League said those men were electrified because they were fired upon, the people of those organizations would immediately take steps to see that thousands more of our people who had enriched the South by their thirst for art never to return. That was the resolution which caused Governor Drought to call a meeting of whites and blacks and try to get them to say that it was the race of the cloven of our Race for the killing of two whites who were firing on them. Unity Shown This show of unity among Chicago Negroes has already brought forth splendid fruit. Especially so when the Chicago Negro goes everywhere to tell whites what he believes in. No wonder Governor Brough took occasion to denounce the Defender before the State Baptist Association. But the Defender goes on to the rights of the Race, just the same. But while we are thanking God for this repretoire for those eleven men who were fighting for the right to organize the Arkansas Supreme court, we must not sit down in leness, believing it well. The Arkansas Supreme court may affirm the decision of the lower court, does, the Negro race of this country, does, the Negro race of this appeal the case to the United States Supreme court. To do this will take us to the country. We should begin raising that purpose right now! I have already spoken to some, and as chairman of the publicity committee of the National president of the Negro Fellowship League, he be glad to receive and acknowledge receipt of said funds, and solemnly that every dollar raised will be applied to the purpose for which it was given. Wealthy Societies and Churches Every organization in the country, which has thousands of dollars of the people's money in their treasuries, $500 and quickly get a fund of $10,000, purpose of defending these men. The principle at stake involves every one of us—the right to organize for our own protection! The man or woman does not see that does not deserve the liberty to be stained. They are not willing to aid in this fight they will not long enjoy that liberty, for already word comes that all Negro organizations which whites do not app- reciate stained cloths that's why they killed Johnson as well. Already in Georgia, Alabama as well. PRESIDENT WILSON'S MESSAGE UNFORTUNATELY, ILLNESS prevented President Wilson from delivering in person his annual message to congress. While this piece of literature was replete with suggestions on questions of vital importance to the nation as a whole, it was noticeable that nothing was said of the Mexican situation, and the peace treaty with this league of nations covenant was only slightly touched upon. The disposition of the railroads was omitted entirely, but it is understood that this will be left for discussion in congress later. It was pointed out that the war left us not an isolated country, as heretofore, but our whole economic future is linked with the commercial activities of the entire world. THE PRESIDENT OFFERED to Congress some wholesome advice along the lines calculated to reduce future taxation, and urged that congress give its immediate attention to the simplification of the income and profit taxing system. The questions of tariff, food control, labor and general unrest throughout the country did not escape attention in the chief executive's recommendations. He pointed out with strong emphasis the widespread conditions of political restlessness in our body politic, and offered what he believed to be essential remedies for the same. HIS RECOMMENDATIONS ON the whole-evidenced the remarkable breadth of the man as well as signalized new constructive policies for governmental procedure. He asked the establishment of a legislative budget system having as its aim one single authority responsible for the making of appropriations. This recommendation showed comprehensive thought and the proper care for the guarding of the nation's income. Pass Resolutions A ROSE BY ANOTHER NAME. Unity Shown THE PITY OF IT ALL that here in this country where the highest order of intelligence is supposed to prevail we find a narrowness born of color prejudice that is appallent to our students of this divine nation that have kindred souls, whose abilities are only standard, it is discouraging to find such narrowness. And yet in this country we should not be surprised when the Caucasian fosters anything inimical to our best interest. The suggestion that she pass for Spanish or any other language is not only fault not only to the young lady but to the group with which she is identified. RATHER A THOUSAND TIMES she remain in obscurity, so far as this country is concerned, than to ride into popularity by masquerading, by selling her goods, by concealing herself in a concealed spot on this globe; the outer world is big and broad. Her talents be hidden under a bushel so long as there are railroad and steamship lines to carry her to foreign shores where people are judged not by the color of their skin, not nationality or creed, but solely on their merit. In the halls of dim America she not many representatives, so she can ill afford to overlook a worthy aspirant. Will Appeal Case IN THE GENERAL UNREST that has swept over the world the elements are playing their part. In Rome two earthquake shocks were severe enough to wreck buildings and drive the people to the streets. Floods in this and other areas have claimed the lives of hundreds, while from our northern states there comes reports of severe blizzards and cold waves, making true the old adage, "It never rains but it pours." GOV. FRANK O. LOWDEN is looming up as the man of the hour. In casting about for president timber the leaders of the G. O. P. say Illinois' more than any other man measures up to the standard required of the chief executive of this great and glorious nation. President Lowden doesn't sound half bad. FEDERAL AGENTS are hot after radical agitators, and wholesale raids of their honeys are of daily occurrence. Every good citizen should take part in ridding this country of anarchists and of marshalic tendencies, and the federal authorities can not be too severe in their treatment of these snakes in the grass. THERE MAY BE plants of the "forbidden fruit" in the cellar but Mr. Barkeep is a little shy about putting it on top of the malagany. There is something uncanny even about the name—federal prison. ASTROLOGISTS have set December 17 as the day when the earth will be wracked with earthquakes, volcanoes, floods, unprecedented heavy fall of rain, lightning and thunder. Next. WE HAVE LEARNED to distrust Mexico most when she is quiet, for usually at that time she is preparing to break out in a new spot. Maybe she is waiting for us to go down there and give her a good spanking. We can do it with case. THE GOOSE didn't hang so high but what some of us were able to reach it.

Driven From Homes Already in Mississippi N. S. Taylor has had to leave his home and the accumulations of thirty years—without time to realize $a dollar—because he had to leave his home to attend the Equal Rights League. The Defender reported last week that a prominent educator of South Carolina, who had been a teacher and respected citizen, had built a school which was an honor and credit to the Race and state, was driven from his home because of an organization and president of an organization and was manned his resignation. Is the Race going to sit still and permit these outrages to continue without doing someone own behalf? I do not believe it will. What Can You Do? You ask what can you do? And my reply is, send me the money and I show you what we can do. You turn up your car and I will fight your battles just I have done for twenty-five years—only this time you will be helping. You will do it? If you have Supreme court rulers the decision of the lower court the cases of these eleven condemned men and the three score who are in prison for long terms will be tried these men must have the best lawyers country to take their cases again. This will take money. If the Arkansas Supreme court affirms the finding of the lower court we should be in position to take their cases. The prime court.

Our Advice ```markdown ``` JUSTICE TO THE NEGRO Speaking to the convention of the Negro Organization Society in session at Lynchburg, Va., last week, Major John H. Institute, made an oloquent invisive appeal to the Southern people for just treatment of his Racist and for full equality before the law. He pointed out that the South has in the Negro borer, and how easy it would be for the Southern people to grip him to the section by Hindy and sympathetic officers. It was not fair, it was not just, it was not Christian to make the vast majority of the Negroes in the South the scapegoats for the crimes and the vices of the South. It was near when the Southern people would realize the dependable value of the Negro's loyalty and identity, after which he expected to witness a better relationship between the races. Coming to a concrete ground for complaint, he said: "It is unfair, it is un-American, it is un-Christian to stifle, stifly, wooden cushion which people are riding in a clean, well-ventilated, well-appointed steel coach, and yet to charge the Negro the same price to the women of our Race, it is not fair to the women of our Race, it is not fair to the white race." Who shall say that this statement is not true? Who shall say that if we are to have segregation on the races in our railroad trains that the Negro is not comfortable, the same security and the same treatment, when he pays for it, as other people? There is no protest here against the separation of the races, there is no comfort, there is an element of unfairness in classing all Negroes together without discrimination—but there is a very just protest against injustice and misuse of the Negroes, and provide the proper equipment for the Negroes who ride their trains, there would seem to be a very proper cause for appeal not alone to a just public opinion, and this occasion is due the Negro either in better treatment or reduced fare. We are quite sure that the appeal of this vile and conservative leader in the North is not here in the South. The Negro is entitled to justice and fair play: more than that Moton does not ask, but he asks. He asks people counsel with and advise and encourage those of his Race who are trying to meet the responsibilities of citizenship: do their part honestly and effectively, effectually and consistently,—permanently—Chattanooga Times, Nov. 25.
