The magazine will recognize no color line; will aim to be broad enough to reach every American home; will not be a radical, but a sane and logical journal, seeking the co-operation of the fair-minded of every race in its efforts to better relations between the races; will publish worthy achievements of Colored people and seek to influence public opinion through the power suggestion rather than by baldly asserting facts. Its keynote will be action—something too long neglected by those who would solve the race question. Everybody knows what Uncle Tom's Cabin did for the slave. Yet Eliza's grandchildren are still crossing the ice. A Safe and Worthy Investment Those who have money to invest will find here their greatest opportunity. Circulation of The Saturday Review will run into millions, increasing, the earning powers of the stock enormously. The company is being organized under the laws of Illinois. All monies paid for stock are deposited with the Illinois Trust and Savings bank and secured by the company's treasurer, Henry W. Hammond, who is bonded by the American Surety company of New York. The magazine will not be published until the company is incorporated and there is enough money on hand to insure success. In case of failure to incorporate within a reasonable time all stock money will be refunded with interest. The committee, paying promotion expenses, consists of Thomas S. Ewell, Henry W.

This Beauty Treatment was put to every test before being offered to the public. When used according to directions, it will not harm the most delicate skin. This has been proven by thousands who have used it with satisfaction. No other treatment has attained such wide-spread popularity in so short a time. The BLACK and WHITE Beauty Treatment is composed of a creamy ointment and a pure complexion soap. It is just as delightful to use as the many face creams and lotions so often employed. Just before retiring, the skin is thoroughly cleansed with warm-water and a thick creamy lather of BLACK and WHITE Soap. After drying thoroughly the ointment is applied according to directions given on the package. The next morning, the ointment is removed from the face, hands, neck or arms and again cleansed with warm water and BLACK and WHITE Soap. The result is the tint and freshness of youth in the complexion. THE CITY CO DEFENDER EAUTY reaches its height in woman.

"We do not want equal opportunity, we want the same opportunity; we do not want equal accommodations, we want the same accommodations; we do not want the same rights as every American citizen"—with these stirring remarks Dr. George Cleveland Hall of Chicago, who is the surgeon at a great hospital, and a great city worker in that city, aroused the large audience of white and Race people who were present at the fourth annual public meeting of the Chicago Negro and the Community", and gave from the Chicago riots. He made the point that we, as a Race, may be given what is termed by the white man equal rights; we want what we want; we want the same rights; for can have what is classed as equal rights yet they are not the same rights. Riot Neglect of Law In touching on the race conflict in the Windy City, Dr. Hall stated it was the result of the neglect of law and order, and the fact that the white ammendments in general Race labo made no attempt to give him the rights to tensions, and classed all types alike—through this medium the Race citizens were at high tension and the conflict started. The churches of Chicago did a hop the race riots than all other forces. Dr. Hall also spoke at length on the service and sacrifices of the Race, and his appeal for a square deal for the "Colored American." Another speaker was Mr. Jackson, educational secretary at Harvard, who talked on the spirit of the Urban League movement and demonstrated the importance of one group of the other, and by improving the conditions of the Race and thereby improving conditions for all. He brought a happy solution of the problem. He painted a beautiful word picture of the Race eventually coming into its form as a Race but as American citizens. Secretary Elzy Makes Report Robert J.

Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., son of the late President, statesman and naturalist, Theodore Roosevelt, James Weldon Johnson, poet and writer, made clear the keynote to young Roosevelt's speech at the Walker Memorial Baptist Church, when he referred to the slogan of Rooseveltism as being "all men up and no men down." In fact, Roosevelt, the principal speaker, emphasized the necessity of his living as nearly as possible to the grand idealism and Americanism which his father was known to be a champion of. The church was entirely too small for the attraction, as thousands could not get in. The affair was held under the auspices of the Circle for Negro Relief, and its members were continually praised during the remarks of the various speakers. Harrison Rhodes outlined the process and its findings. Then Miss Ann Lindsay and Mrs. J. Bushnell rendered the audience to an uproar of cheering when he said in conclusion, "No single Negro in this country is free or safe as long as members of the Race in the South are persecuted simply because they are black." Prof. Fred R. Work sang a solo and James MacNamara (white), sang a group of melodies. Rev. Bushnell, pastor of the church, did much toward making the affair a success. Desiring to get the information of a few prominent New Yorkers upon the plan to run a man of our Race, and for a few minutes in the 19th Congressional District, recently sought an interview with a Honorable Chas. W. Anderson, to merely collector of Internal Revenue this port, and, though many years the political game, still one of the strongest politicians of the Race. The first question asked Mr. Anderson was, "Do you think one of our people could win the congressional election in 19th district?" "Only if he is nominated on the regular republican ticket." Additionally, the public, who explained that the 19th district, which begins at 5th avenue and 126th, was run over to the Hudson river up to Sputon Dyall-creek, down again to 5th avenue and 125th, street, has always been a democratic district, and the entire republican vote of our people is only about 7,000; while the voting strength of the entire district is about 70,000. Backed however, by the regular republican nomination, the Race candidate might succeed this year. However, the former collector doubted much whether the democrats of our Race in this district would support a republican candidate, even though he was of their own race. For example, the 19th district, which would not consider being a candidate himself, but he was willing to do anything in his power to make the thing possible. Berkman at Garfield Pharmacy Folks Theodore Berkman, formerly with Paul Borchard's pharmacy, 1830 street and Lenox avenue, is now conducting the Garfield Pharmacy at 488 Berkman Street.

He will willingly contributed to many worthy causes in the community and has a host of follow-up problems. The problem is solved when they give their patronage. The store at the above address is well stocked with medicines. So what you cannot get elsewhere, Dr. Berkman is sure to have...AdvT. Asked if he thought it possible to run successfully an independent candidate, Mr. Anderson said: that if that candidate had been handed the election to the democrat. Summing up, he said that if our people would wholeheartedly get behind some good man, get the republican man, get the republican man on the republican ticket, the Race did have a chance to send one of its representatives to Congress; no other way, said the former colleague, could he see a possible chance.

WALKER'S HAIR GROWER THE CHICAGO DEFENDER --- EVERYBODY appreciates a good complexion and ninety out of a hundred can have a good complexion if the health of the body and skin are given proper care. The skin, being subject to the elements, wind, rain, and snow, requires careful attention to preserve its natural texture and delicate coloring. The first essential in the care of the skin is proper cleansing. The skin must be kept free from impurities, as the glow of health will not shine through a neglected skin. As an aid to the proper care of the complexion we have added to our line five preparations of unsurpassable merit. These preparations are compounded by expert chemists from high test material, cost not being considered, and are entirely free from anything that would injure the most delicate skin. MADAM C. J. WALKER'S COLD CREAM is composed of the best materials found in face creams and will retain its freshness and fragrance indefinitely. The continued use will keep the skin in a healthy condition and is very effective for toning and firming the skin, imparting smoothness and brilliancy to the complexion. (State) MADAM C. J. W VANISHING CRE MADAM C. J. WALKER'S VANISHING CREAM is free from the objectionable features of oil or grease and will not promote the growth of down on the face and is a valuable aid to those who have difficulty in retaining powder on the face. MADAM C. J. WALKER'S CLEANSING CREAM is an article all women should use. Apply a small amount on the tips of fingers, rubbing in well, using circular motion. The movements should be in an upward direction and away from the center of the face. Do not neglect under the chin, where women show their age so quickly. Do not rub too hard. Wipe off with soft cloth. The treatment, if carefully followed, is excellent for restoring and preserving a youthful complexion, removing blackheads, pimples, and enlarged pores. ced millinery fails to make a good effect if your hair is not rately priced hat may look twice its value if your hair is Woman Can Have Beautiful Hair K AVE., N STREET with beautiful hair.

It is a gripping melodrama, and the story really begins some years before the curtain closes on the first act, starting at a time when a half sister of the hero, Jules Peauhien, has been led astray by an American advenience. The man has disappeared with the woman and all traces of them have been lost. The disgrace brought upon Jules's father weighs upon him, and he receives a promise from Jules that he will find his sister and story really begins some years before the curtain rises on the first act, starting at a time of the hero, Jules Penulien, has been led astray by an American adventurer. The man has disappeared and all traces of them have been lost. The disgrace brought upon Jules' father weighs upon him, the promise from Jules that he will find his sister and care for her. He Conv Lanston sets forth in the first act, and finds him on the home of Andrew McTavish, on the home of Andrew McTavish, on the home already of Vind river. The brother has already been willingly found death in a wrestoman and now, accompanied by Baptiste LeGrand, a nomad of the Northwest, he is searching for the adventurer that has brought woe upon him and his kin. At the MacTavish home the wanderers william MacDonald and his assistant, George the construction of a rifle. The former has been making love to MacTavish's daughter, Hilda, born of a Swedish mother, but hated by her father because she has been born a girl. Although a married man, he declares that he will win the girl, and, because he has the father, is about to carry out his task, he is interrupted by Jules, who is himself in love with the girl, but has never mentioned the fact. During his boasting MacDonald lets slip the fact that it was he who wronged Annette, and from that moment his fate is sealed. In the light which follows Huntley takes sides with MacDonald, the trio escape along the Little Ben. When they are safely out of danger Jules leaves the others to go on while he returns to the MacTavish home to kill MacDonald and average his sister. Before he can start, however, MacDonald appears to regain Hilda, and a fight occurs in the dark, and is the stranger some of the play, with the ominous howling of the wolves in the distance. Arthur Simmons as Jules Beaubien, the young French Canadian, has a splendid chance and takes full advantage of what could not be improved upon, and from there he sustains the characterization in a way that holds strict attention. George Allen, seen for the first time in a local muncip, makes a good impression as the young Frenchman Edward Thompson, as capable a young actor as could be found in a lot of 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 fining. traveling, has the light comedy 'part of Huntley, and delivers it perfectly, Charles Olden as MacTavish, the father of Hilda, does a fine bit of character work. His hatred for the girl, who is innocent of any wrongdoing, is brutal in the extreme, and Olden qualifies for the Prize. The daughter, is well cast and has the symbites of the audience from the beginning, and her happiness at the end is shared by those who follow the interesting story. Clarence E. Muse as the villain, MacDonald, also does some splendid work. The part is a concoction that unintently well deserved 'finish' refers to the large Monday night audience. It is a play that should be seen by all lovers of the melodramatic. THE GRAND "Tunes and Funnies of 1920" is the name of a fine musical comedy offering at the Grand this week. The Miller & Lyles company is thoroughly qualified for an entertainment of this sort and the setting is one of great moment at any time from curtain to finale. As might be deduced from the title, a melange of singing, comedy and dancing is presented, and all the biggest hits and best numbers of the past few years are done, along with the very latest in some of the best of minute. The comedy is being well taken care of by Miller & Lyles themselves, and they are aided and abetted by Andrew Tribble, always a great favorite with Chicago audiences. In addition to the comedy, as Leon Diggs, Df Enfiction, Lom Ross, A. J. Twiggs, Edna Hicks, Rose Gordon, Bessie Tribble, Julia Rector, Trixie Butler, Ethel Patton, Mary Carpenter, Cordelle Richardson, Alma Jones, Essential and others.

Gant & Perkins, considered by many as being the best stager act in all vaudeville, are presenting their new offering, "The Nurse Maids," and it is going over in great style. Peat Stuart, who plays the act as an act, are hitting them hard with their Chinese and Smoke offering, and the new act of Jerome & Williams is coming in for a world of favorable comment. The singing of Jerome and the banjo playing of Williams are features, although the dialogue is original. This act should be heard funny in the near future. The big novelty for the week is The Only Jalvan, who has an Oriental offering that covers a wide variety of work, juggling, top spin- "PRINCE AND BETTY" Walter Perry, that stoning character actor, without, whom he jokes D. Hampton production is entirely complete, is one of the important members of the supporting cast of William Desmond's newest picture, "The Prince and the Queen." In this picturization of Polham Granville Wodehouse's widely read novel Walter Perry portrays the role of the president of the small republic of Mervo. The president has an itching palm and finds palm in the good American cane who never missed a chance, however wild and daring it might be, to make money. The schemer's present plan is to turn the eyes of the world in Mervo's direction by staging a revolution and one back of the Prince royal. And who can believe that the Prince will be William Desmond, a penniless American who aspires to the hand of a beautiful helress. Mary Thurman is "Petty," the Prince and Betty. It is announced, will be shown Sunday at the State Museum. It's a Jesse D. Hampton production distributed by Pathc. ning and other things far out of the world is an interesting and well balanced one. the Milcheau of the Milcheau productions, "Within Our Gates," will be seen for a four-day run beginning on Monday, Feb. 2, at Dooley's The Atlas theater, 4711 Stale Street. This is the picture that it required two solid months to get by the Cannon Bard, and it is the claim of the author and producer that, while it is a hit radical, it is within the biggest protest against race prejudice, lynching and "concubmage" that was ever written or flamed and gripping, holding moments than was ever seen in any individual production. The scenes are held in the south where the outrages are most predominant, and the author has not minced words in presenting the facts as they really exist. To give you a slight idea of the situation, the author publishes the following paragraph taken from the middle part of the scenario: "It was late September in Mississippi; the cotton had been picked, ginned, baled and delivered. There was to be a picnic and night festival, and on the preceding afternoon, Jasper Landry, who was by his daughter, Sylvia, who was "going away to school" went to the plantation offices of Philip Girdlestone white, to make a settlement. Now there was a worthless, unlikable fellow named Eph. He was known as a spreader of some who had been something else and fainted the name of hatred in his breast against Landry. Eph. secreted to peep upon the controversy which he had planned, turned away to giggle when a shot rent the air. He whirled and saw Girdlestone falling to the floor, and saw Girdlestone jumping over him holding a smoking revolver. So away went Eph with a greater tale than ever to tell." What thon happened, you may guess —but not all! People interested in the welfare of the Race cannot afford to miss seeing this great production, and remember, it TEILLS IT ALL.

Adams. She is seen as Mary Murphy, the oldest inmate of the orphan asylum, poor poor poor years formented in a fiber that the beseked calico of the institution. On clothing the matron's room she is fascinated by the woman's gaudy clothes and cannot resist the temptation to try on one of the dresses. That afternoon a dishou- tured girl in the institution leans sum of money in the matron's care, intending to steal it from the safe that night. In the middle of the night he steals the money and perceives Mary slipping away from the institution with the matron's new clothes. He ignores girl's escape, knowing he can fusten the robber of the money on the innocent wolf. Mary arrives in town, and after many trials obtains a position as assistant to an eccentric old man, whose hobby is collecting bugs. To obtain this job, however, she is compelled to disguise her good looks, as the old fellow insists on plain, middle-neged heels. His pliability allows deception, and a pretty romance develops. When things look brightest for Mary, the shadow of the asylum robbery crosses her path, and she is accused of theft. How her innocence is established, how the guilty meet their just desert and how Mary finds happiness and how Mary MacLean's leading man in the picture is David Butler. Others in the cast are Johnnie Cooke, Carl Stockdale, Lydia Knott, Charlotte Woods, Lillian Ribb and Camilla Clark. "FINE FEATHERS" "FINE FEATHERS" How many times have you oh reader, picked up a newspaper and observed where some poor "devil" of a man or a woman had ruined his or her life and become ensnared in the talons of the law all because they had a taste for luxury beyond their means? and when one lives beyond their means what happens? A resort to nipulation, and oftimes to satire the ever hungering, never appeased desire, for "Fine Feathers." The desire for "Fine Feathers" has caused many a girl to give up the struggle to traverse the "street called straight." For try as she might to win her way to the city she road in her sleeve she grew weary of the attempt to see her clothing becoming threadbare on the nagre salary she was earning as a cog in the industrial machine. And when a chance, a flattering offer, came to forsake this life of toil when she closed it, she would be the "Fine Feathers" that would be her lot if she yielded; she chose "Fine Feathers." Many a husband has found himself bowed beneath a burden of debts as persistent as the proverbial old man of the sea, all because his wife and family feathers. Such is the case in the domestic history of the Reynolds—the wife, Jane, though not sinfully inclined and loyal to her husband, is cursed wife theacteria of self indulgence, the mental vision and is rapidly spreading poison through her whole structure of character. She is no more nor less than the average wife, who by unhinging extravagance and unusual deprivation, production, is causing the American nation to become one of debtors—not the debtor who by an assumption of credit promotes progress and civilization, but the man who is driven highly any possible beyond his means without ever squaring himself with the world. The situations in this play are strong and are so built as to show that in many cases in life it is a question of yielding to the desire for fine feathers to acquire lead to eternal damnation. As presented by the present company of Lafayette players at the Avenues, Feathers," for it opens before your eyes a page from life's book that would remain forever hidden if it were not in stage and plays like "Fine Feathers."

S. Hurt, and he will be seen at the States theater on Saturday of the present week, Jan. 31st, in what has been called the greatest "Hart" production of them all. The feature is "The States all the Doll," and as hight be imagined from the title, it is evenern drama that is so full of the regulation Hart situations that it will keep you on edge during its entire length. There is something peculiar about these Wm. S. Hart features; we have considered real stars playing western there are none who seem to be able to get the real atmosphere in the screening of their offerings. Whether it is because they have not been raised "amidst the surroundings which the leading parts, or whether there is some deeper reason, is hard to tell. Anyway, a "Hart" picture is a "Hart" picture, and there is nothing that comes anywhere near resembling it, a fact which is not to be denied. Do not fail to see "The Devil's Double." LULU COATES & CO. Brooklyn, N. Y. Jan. 30. - Lulu Contes and Crackerjacks are the headlined feature with the Hurtig & Seamon Social Malds Co. playing the Empire theater and the unassuming sensation and carries several new and novel offerings, presented in a way that makes the turn a veritable show stopper. The entire company is an amusement entertainment seen here during the current season. J. J. BOSENTHAL J. J. Rosenthal, manager of Woods theater, the newest and one of the most successful theaters in the loop, is a marvel, if all that is said of him in a brief article in a late issue of "Women's Apparel Review" is to be believed, and the results that he has achieved would run upside down. His story runs all through Mr. Rosenthal's spindle career and tells, among other things, of how he made $1,000,000 for Al Woods in a short space of time by starring Julian Elfinger in "The Fascinating Widow". But the most appealing part of the leader is that he tells you, for the age of 3, "J. J." but one over on the editor of the Cincinnati Enquirer. When that individual absolutely refused a small贴 that Rosenthal had for the Cincinnati opera house, which the young hustler had promised front page space; he went on to purchase other stamps with the aid of another aid of a mob of newsboys he stamped his ad in red ink on every copy of the big paper. That was 25 years ago and the circulation was not as large as it is now, but the proceeding had its effect and the show played to caress. He was so successful. He is only 50 now, so he isn't through yet. He surely has done wonders for Al Woods as well as for himself. Leonard Eckner has organized a dramatic company and the first offering, being played in and around Cairo, in the drama, "The Cricket on the Hoof." JANUARY 31, 1920 VIEW "EVERYWOMAN" The showing of the lavisy picturisation of Walter Browne's famous morality play, "Everywoman," at the New York theater this week recallably traced circumstances in which a gifted author, Mr. Browne was a newspaper reporter on a prominent New York daily. His burning ambition was to write a great play for the stage that would something wonderfully different and work with the audience received the brilliant idea of transforming the old morality play of the sixteenth century into an elaborate modern counterpart. The conception of his play was his brain and became a vital, living tool worked upon it, feverishly for years—every moment that he could spare from his newspaper duties—writing, revising and polishing. It became an obsession him, and his life was bound up with the success or failure of his great venture. At last it was finished and in the manager's hands. The latter saw its immense possibilities at once and enthusiastically went about the staging; the manager worked for weeks upon the preparation for the initial performance, helping in the selection of the cast, the construction of the great settings, and the cuttings. But the last it was ready and Walter Brown was like a man about to realize his heart's desire. Suddenly by a grim turn of fate he was strenched with a mighty illness, very night of his mighty umph at the Squaro Square theater he passed away. THE GRAND STATE at 31ST ST.

The doors will open nightly at 7 and the shows will start at 7:15 and 9:30 sharp, with the vaudeville bill being the highlight and the feature pictures changed nightly. This theater should have great success under the management of Mr. Klein and with the policy which he has laid out for it. The offerings are reviewed each week in the Defender. REAL TRIBUTE The following glowing tribute, written by the Race's leader in his line, T. Wallace Swann, appeared in the anniversary program of the Standard Philadelphia Rite. The guiding principle of the New Standard Theater is to give its patrons the best the stage affords. The people who appear before its footlights must excel in all kinds of work. They must be the best and present the best to amuse, entertain, instruct and play. The standard set by the Gibson management is now recognized and followed by the chief factors in the amusement world. The morale of the stage has improved a thousand fold. Patron, playwright and player have been benefited. Better productions, better consideration for both player and playwright, better pay for all con- ditions and better appraisal by the public is now the rule and not the exe- cption. In the six years which cover the control and direction of the New Standard Theater by Mr. John T. Gibson, he has given to him more than to any other living individual, is due this remarkable triumph. He is a master of the profession and devotes his entire personality to the consumption of his art as a consequence, the creator of love. I asked Mr. Gibson what was his chief desire. He replied, slowly, but firmly: "It is to pluck a thorn and to plant a rose where a flower will grow." More power to this deserving Son of Joy!

Beautiful, Long, Soft, Glossy, Wavy Hair The Greatest Desire of Every Woman Whose Hair is Short, Coarse and Wiry Most of a woman's attractiveness depends on her hair. She may have a lovely complexion, her clothes becoming tailored, but without pretty, soft, glossy, wavy hair, she would lack that charm so much desired. First wash the hair thoroughly with a good soap or shampoo. (There is nothing better than Black and White Soap.) Then apply Black and White Hair Dressing in little pieces night and morning, rubbing well into the scalp. Brush the hair thoroughly, several times a day, if possible. Wash the hair again in one week. The regular and continued use of Black aand White Hair Dressing will so improve your hair that you will be proud of the day you bought your first package. You will be more attractive, popular in social life, successful in business—you will be admired by everybody, if you will care for your hair properly so as to make it grow longer, softer and dress it to become your style of beauty. HOW YOU CAN IMPROVE YOUR HAIR. If your hair is dry, wiry and coarse, it is necessary to use a treatment that will feed the roots of the hair. Dandruff will cause your hair to become dry, wiry and brittle and soon fall out. and a preparation that will also relieve this scalp trouble is very important. While the creamy lather of a cake of Black and White Soap is superior for relieving dandruff and cleansing the scalp and hair, some people prefer a liquid shampoo. You can make your own shampoo by shaving a quarter of a cake of Black and White Soap and dissolving in a pint of boiling water. When cool it is ready for use. This pint of liquid soap costs but little and lasts for a long time. Get a bar of Black and White Soap and try it. The proper washing of the hair and scalp must be given every care and a pure medicated Soap or Shampoo used once a week. THE BEST HAIR DRESSING. Black and White Hair Dressing is a new white preparation composed of the purest and best ingredients known by specialists to relieve dandruff and make the hair grow soft and glossy. Some time was spent in testing the merits of this new hair dressing, and the manufacturers believe that they now have the best preparation on the market. Certainly there is no dressing just like Black and White for hair troubles. Black and White Hair Dressing can be bought at any good drug store, but if your local dealer will not supply you with this new white hair preparation, bearing the Black and White Label, accept no substitutes—send the Plough Chemical Co., Memphis, Tenn., 50c for a package of the Hair Dressing and a bar of Black and White Soap, or,3 packages Black and White Hair Dressing and 2 bars of Black and White Soap will be sent you postpaid, for $1.00.

LONE IN, Jan. 29—William Marconi, inventor of the wireless, discussed in more detail the mysterious signals caught on the more powerful wireless apparatus which yesterday, he said, might possibly be signals from another planet. Moreover he be signals; we do not know. They are not what operators call atmospheric, and we have nothing to guide us at present as to how they are caused. "We do not get them unless we set up a special wave length. These sounds occur when we are using a wave length of approximately 100-kilometers, which is three or four times the length used for commercial purposes. "We haven't gone out of our way to look for the signals because they are no good to us, but they seem very persistent. Three short rips are often made into the letter 'S' in the Morse alphabet, but there are sounds also which might stand for other letters. I want to make it clear, however, that nothing in the nature of a message can be accidental or the fact that some one is trying to signal, and it isn't wise to build too great expectations." Marconi said the sounds were curiously musical and appear to originate at a great distance, which might be the result of the noise he had no recent reports about them because the great wave length necessary was not usually in operation.

State St., Chicago, IL Phone Kenwood.6305 RDAY, JANUARY 31, 1920 RED AND BLACK BEAT SPARTAN BRAVES By Wm. White New York, Jan. 20.—On Wednesday evening, Jan. 21, before a crowd of 5,000 frenzied fans the Spartan Braves "gold and green" machine went down to defeat before the stellar playing of the red and black machine of St. Philip's parish house by the score of 40 to 23. The game, as expected, was furious and fast from the beginning, but did not measure up to the expectation of the crowd, as it was previously thought the score would have been closer. The Spartan boys did not appear to be as fast as they were on New Year's afternoon and were either sloppy or sluggish stage. From the great Slocum, said to be one of the coolest as well as the best forwards in the game, was yanked out in the second half by Manager Bob Douglass, being unable to keep pace with the lightning-like attack of the 133d street boys. Famous Bradford System. Paramount Before 10 minutes of play in the first half it was becoming more and more apparent that the teamwork of the red and black, or the Bradford system, was better. But the Spartans showed their gameness by trying to stop the onrushing of the machine, but it was useless. The only time the Spartans were in the lead was in the first half when, with the score to 10 to 10, Captain Bradford laced the ball. The St. Christopher lads again forged to the front, the first half ending 19 to 13 in favor of St. C. As the Battle Raged At the beginning of the second half teams took on new life—both determined to be returned the victors—but the Spartan boys soon lost their stride and went entirely to pieces. At this stage the Bradford system had been recolled and were playing rings around their opponents with the greatest of ease. Little George Flah was ever in question and light in question and caged many difficult baskets. Harold Jenkins outfitted the great Hobey Johnson at home and counted for six field baselines both were eliminated in half, Gumbs and MacDon's places. The game was right from beginning to finish, free from clearly demonstrated that Year's day affair was unfrom every point of view, primary contest between the Cubs and the Spartan Cubs at tie, 11 to 11.

Jersey City Independents Win Jersey City, N. J., Jan. 30.—Last Friday night, despite the ice and snow, a large number of fans journeyed to Kingston hall to see the Independents meet the Moravian Boys of New York. And I mean they did meet, but to the sorrow of the Moravians, and Jersey really cleaned up. In the first half the Jersey Tigers went for the New Yorkers and the second half saw beeler, Wallace, Ford, Fowler and mayon for Jersey line up, then the play began. The final score was 23 to 17.

Jan. 30—The Indianapolis Y Mascot A basketball tossers fittingly picked out the skidday day of the month to chase the losing jinx and again take up their winning wins at the expense of the "Y" squad from Springfield, Ohio. The final count, 38 to 15, tells the true tale of the game which, coming after the Vandal affair, seemed a rather tame exhibition of the lineup made. The visitors presented a young material, but it must be said to their credit that they displayed symptoms of some day rounding into "big league" performers. The first half started with the Buckeye boys playing a rushing game, but soon found out that a real floor was too high. The players band-box at the old home town and by this time the Hoosier machine was warmed up, although it was plain that the locals had already found that they had something easy and were playing a listless game. Baskets by Hozzard and "Pep" Bryant ran the tally up to 17 to 10 in the home guard's The Mid-West Champs The Mid-West Champs evidently had heard some pretty strong "English" during the rest period for they appeared for the second act with the old dash and vim and proceeded to "ice up" the thing in short order. Conch D. Frantz at this stage pulled out the "Varsity" and Dangerfield and Jackson took the lead in opening up twice while Dangerfield and game fight that the losers put up of young Heath was the outstanding feature of the evening's performance of the "Springers."

"I am of the opinion," said Mr. Hueston, "that Gary offers a wonderful opportunity for our people, and the object of the organization with which I am identified is to take advantage of this opportunity. You understand that we only hindrance which we have in Gary are to get houses, for there are no vacant homes, our objects is to build these houses upon such terms as our people can handle. Our corporation is capitalized at $500,000, with nearly half of the common stock paid in, so that we are ready to begin operations.

The game was played at the City Auditorium in Raleigh, which is one of the finest basket ball courts to be seen anywhere in the country. The Shaw team, playing before its student body, which cheered and pleaded for victory, gave the spectators the demonstration of the indoor sport seen on the field. Shaw had defeated every team that had neyed to Raleigh except the Hampton aggregation, therefore this game was one of great interest. First Half 13 to 7' The first half ended with the score 13 to 7 in Hampton's favor. The second half began with playing that electrified the spectators. Time and again they were brought to their feet by the spectacular shooting, particularly of the Shaw team, who made several successful baskets from one end of the court to the other. The Hampton team kept the lead throughout. The game was clearly played and a fine display of spirit was constantly in evidence. The line-up was as follows: HAMPTON SHAW HAMPTON SHAW Phillip (Cap).

"I am of the opinion," said Judge Rudkin, in ruling in the case, that the amendment was entirely within the competency of congress and the several states to propose and ratify; and that both the amendment and the national prohibition act were in full force and effect on the day in question. Ohio's referendum election to overturn the amendment in that state, and the anti-prohibitionists, has no effect on the amendment, Judge Rudkin held.

Doctora predict that this is the beginning of an Influenza Epidemic such as we had last year when hundreds of thousands died as a result. Influenza can be prevented; last year should prove that. Doctors recommend that people should be used frequently. Probably one of the most successful germicides used during the epidemic last year was Turpo, which is a combination of the old-time remedies of turpentine (which for years has been the best known remedy) and menthol in a pure mineral base. Physicians and hospitals use and recommend Turpo. Sniff a little Turpo up the nostrils once a day and the fur gums will have little chance of getting a lodging and breeding place. Remember that Influenza, in a great mass, causes colds into pneumonia, so prepare now. the art of Turpo of your drug gist, which is a supply on hand, and use as directed.

Ellis, who served as secretary of the American legation at Liberia. For his services he received high commendation from those in charge of the mission.

Impresses Love With Flatiron "WE COVER CHICAGO LIKE THE MORNING DEW THE CHICAGO DEFENDER THE POLITICAL POT By A. N. Fields The large number of our people who have migrated to this and other cities in the north, east and west in search of opportunities to work out their destinies will fall in their travel unless they avail themselves of the opportunity of living in their environment through the exercise of their suffrage as voters. This can only be done by going to the polls on registration and meeting the requirements essential for the completion of your citizenship. Unless you register Feb. 3, in Illinois, those who live here will be unable to vote. Representatives will be in the state and national government for the next four years. The man who fails to avail himself of the vote in the interest of the things he believes to enhance the success of the government is unworthy of having the opportunity to chise yourself by your own negligence. The political information is going the rounds out in the Sixth ward that the cohorts of Roy O. West, candidate for governor, and the people that Mr. West is a Thompson and that he is one of the mayor's best friends. Just the reverse is true. The mayor is represented in the Sixth ward by a man with an ability and intelligence. He comes from a school of thought, culture and refinement, which enables him to breathe an atmosphere entirely different from the life of Mr. West, during his political career. Mr. McLaughlin lives beyond the hampering influences of petty prejudices and respects men in his community, and proportion to their racial identity. If members of our group believe in the policies of Mayor Thompson, then the political future of Mr. West will be elected. Hon. Edward H. Wright of the Second ward, William A. Bither of the Third, James W. Breen of the Thirtieth, Dr. W. H. Reed of the Thirtieth, trustees of friends and deserve the unstinted support of our people residing in their respective wards. It is essential that wherever possible for our aid to be effective to see that it is used in the interest of men and measures with them the hardest possibilities for the advancement of our people.

The salesmen lars took the wheel and in a few moments was speeding to 3500 State street. There may be better cars on the road, so a meeting committee has been out for a number of days to find them, without avail. A Man on the Bench It is high time that the powers that he should look with favor upon giving to the government a serious department of the government where our numerical strength justifies it by reason of our votes. Every other principal court bench except ours, even those with much less political strength whose whose patriotism and Americanism are holding positions of confidence largely in excess of their voting power, who who have proved our loyalty, are not permitted to enjoy our just deserts.

Hospital Nurse Training School has graduated, since its inception, about 170 young women, and it has yet to record an instance where it has been made. In every section of the country these young women can be forging responsible positions or successfully working in the private nursing field. Miss Jessie Fite, a recent graduate, is a fair sample. A call came for a company to supervise from the Muskogee Tuberculosisarium, and Miss Klimmel, superintendent Provident Hospital, recommended Miss Fite. The following communication superintendent at the Muskogee Institute speaks or itself: "I want to tell you the perfect satisfaction the nurses, Miss Hassie Towler and Miss Jessie Fite, are giving in their work here.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 31, 1820 Rufus Wallingford Must Take a Back Seat It happened in the Colonial barber shop, 3447 South State street, a place largely patronized by the great and near great. Information was brought to the city editor that a certain well known celebrity on the "Stroll" had suddenly acquired considerable finances by reason of a small investment in "Ivory" stock. "Pink Tea," the dry reporter, was told to get out and get the dope. Pink wandered into Buck's place and was all eyes focused on the quater chair, which reposed on certain well known epicurean artist surrounded by a coterie of servants administering to his delicate and artistic design and manure. Was pulling each hand, two porters shining his shoes, and two barbers working on him, one applying the hot cloth while /I/ went into the possession of several hundred thousand dollars through an investment in "bones", and just happened to be on the right side of the market. It could not be learned in which of the places of chance this little fortune was going to have, have plenty of dough and spent it freely. Buck, the proprietor, was a little nonplussed at the lavish expenditure of money, and when you surprise Buck you are going to give it for he has been all around the world. Street Department While the conduct of the members of our group when in public places in the city do not seem to realize that they are a civilized community, in the street car, in places of amusement and even in the school, talking and boisterous laughter murks them as being devoid of home training. In the matter of dress there is no difference, even when one is as poor as the proverbial church mouse. And the quicker this class learns that they are a central entire community the better it will be. Watermelon Famine If the high prices during the coming summer months continue our favorite faux-luxury fauxwatermelon, will doubtless be the most expensive with no discount off for the seed and rind.

State St. Chicago, Illinois THE CHICAGO DEFENDER "WE COVER CHICAGO LIKE THE MORNING DEW" EIGHTH REGIMENT NEWS The strength of the regiment at present is approximately 800 officers and men. For the Chicago units there are urgently needed at once 75 automatic rifmen, 30 machine gunners, 22 clerks, 20 cools, 18 mechanics, 15 buglers and signal men, 10 bandsmen and 50 privates. Among these men there are especially wanted men who can play football, football, and football base-ball, lawn tennis runners, jumpers, pole vaulters and other track team men, boxers, wrestlers, etc., in order to carry out successfully our athletic program. Every opportunity will be given men to advance themselves to the non-commissioned grades. Now that official orders have been received it is hope that the general public will lend their active support to the regiment and send them a summary of enlistment and their涵y bands and sweethearts to be a part of the only regiment in existence ofhelered throughout by our men. Every religious, fraternal, civil, political, social, patriotic, charitable, athletic or other organization should be represented in the 5th regiment, and we ask each of these organizations to spend us as many recruits from their organizations as possible. Send them in at once. We are asking this in order that the 5th regiment may be a representative regiment, capable of preserving the tra-mment of the 5th, for which so many men have yet already and heroically given up their lives and that our men may be prepared for future war. We enlist them from the ages of 15 to 45. During our service in the late war, enlisted men of the regiment received commissions as first and second lieutenants, thus proving that service in this regiment, and the training received in the regiment under our own officers, was sufficient for the commissioning of these officers without examination and with simply the recommendation of the regimental commander. The regimental basket ball team is now in the City League and games are being played weekly at the 8th regiment armory and elsewhere with other league teams. The annual military ball of the "Old 8th" will be revived this year after a lapse of several years on account of the war, and will take place at the 8th regiment armory on Lincoln's birthday night, Feb. 12. When your friends visit in the city bring them over to the 8th regiment armory to inspect the building. It is one of the show places of the city and was erected at a cost of more than $250,000.

Church RACIAL QUESTIONS discussed by prominent leaders from all parts of the country PUBLIC INVITED ROSCOE SIMMONS, Pres. R. S. ABBOTT, Chr. State Executive Committee INCREASE IN INTEREST RATES MAY CUT H.C.L Many Begin to Feel That Federal Reserve Action May Have Good Effect Some local bankers who have large commercial accounts believe that the general stiffening in interest rates, which has followed the reserve boards' advance in discounts from 4% to 6 per cent, will result in the slowing up of borrowing and a disposition to be careful in the buying of additional merchandise. These bankers now give greater approval to the advances made by the reserve board than they were at first inclined to extend. So far as the banks are advised, there is not in the west accumulation of raw materials for speculative purposes such as obtain at the seaboard, in the mid-season today. The overbuying in the mid-season may then due in part to stocking up against contingencies in railroad transportation. Merchants claim they have bought more stocks in the last six months than desired because of inability to transport for goods when needed. The bankers have blamed for whatever of undue volume of stocks that is being carried. It is thought that as merchants begin to calculate the increased cost of buying goods because of increased interest charges, they may begin to reflect before trying to pass the new charge again to the ultimate consumer prices are already high; that further increases in interest about a period of individual curtailment and that possibly it is better to marking down prices rather than adding thereto. This latter spirit, or, rather, the wisdom of it, is beginning to be noted in the situations of those who are in touch with business conditions. There is always a question concerning an actual movement, and the "high price for everything idea" does not meet with the easy favor that characterized it a few months ago. Everybody Profiteered And to state the matter frankly, it is being generally conceded that everybody has been profiteering. This has been brought about to make high prices and high wages and through the even has established a fixed high cost for the undue profits has been the penalty for the undue profits has been a permanently increased first cost. As to the banks themselves, the increase in the federal reserve discount rates will shut off one source of ruthless protective profit. That is, while a bank holds a reserve bank and lend at 6, the spread in the way of profit was more easily made than to borrow from the reserve bank at 6 and lend at 6½ per cent. Another set of financial transactions that will soon begin to meet with disclosures is the constant fluctuation of new securities not backed by adequate assets.

TO THE EARTH THE PLANETS IN A LINE SUN TO URANUS TO NEPTUNE TO JUPITER TO VENUS TO MARS TO SATURN VENUS JUPITER AND MOONS MARS SATURN MERCURY Just before dawn one morning, when rumors were affloat that the world would come to an end, all the planets in the solar system, the earth alone excepted, swung into an approximately straight line. Astronomers watched the maneuver, which was the grandest that has occurred in the last twenty centuries, and found it quite as planetary conjunctions usually are. MODERN FARMER USES MANY WORDS NOT YET IN THE DICTIONARIES A great many terms in common use to agricultural discussions have never found a place in the dictionary. So widely used and important a term as "vitamin" has not yet found its way into the principal unabridged dictionaries. For the public, therefore, there exists no approved spelling, no approved pronunciation, and no approved definition of the name of a thing that is vital to all living things. There are scores of terms, independent of agricultural writing or speaking, that have not been recognized by the lexicographers, and there are quite as many new usages of established words. "Blood line," "overrun," a term widely used to express the thing that is practically the determining factor of profits in creamy establishments; "standardbred," "trap nest," and any number of other commonly used agriculturists, remain undefined for the accurate information of the general public. Government experts have begun a movement to standardize the use of such terms, and about 30 of them are on the griddle now. Three points of view are taken—that of the fieldman who knows the common usage of the layman, that of the scientist who has a viewpoint of the specialist, and the point of view that looks merely to the use of good English. Each word is submitted to the various classes of persons interested, together with the proposed usage and the authority or lack of authority for it. From the suggestions received in reply the finally approved usage will be determined. The first agricultural term to be actioned is the unintended descriptor was "corn belt." That was considered more appropriate than com-belt or cornbelt. Taking Ways When mother and her brood started to town the weather was threatening, so she did not go unprepared. In due time they stepped off the crowded train at the south station. "Have you got all the umbrellas, Johnny?" was her first question.

There is hope for this fellow, for when he comes near the earth next summer he will outshine every other light in the sky. TRANSPORT POWHATAN IS SAFELY DOCKED IN HALIFAX HARBOR HALIFAX, N. S., Jan. 28.—The American transport Powhatan, disabled and deep in the water, was today docked at the ocean terminals here after ten-day battle with terrific blizzards for miles as and zero weather. The crew of 255 men and 16 officers were safely ashore. The Powhatan was towed into Halifax early last night and after lying in the stream two hours was docked at the government pier at the south end of the amphitheatre, scores of ambulances and attendants ached at the door to remove the sick to hastily prepared hospitals, but they were not needed. Only two or three were slightly ill. None was frost bitten. The crew was immediately taken off the sterner and lodged and fed at Camp soldiers'-civil establishment hospital. Members of the crew were paid an extra $20, to be used for a celebration. The Powhatan will remain here until a new propeller is installed. The moderating weather of yesterday (totally clear) covered a large portion of covering of ice which had accumulated during her battle with the wind and rain and seas.

KAISER'S BIRTHDAY FAILS TO DEVELOP BERLIN, Jan. 28.—The birthday of former Kaiser Wilhelm apparently was destined to pass without incident. Rumors of unarchief outreaches following the shooting of M. Erzberger, minister of finance, showed no signs of becoming real, as the troops of Gen. Noske patrolled the streets. Wilhelmstrasse was guarded with hosed wire entanglements, while troops were sent to each entrance, forbidding the public to approach government buildings. The condition of the finance minister, while more dangerous than at first, was described by his physicians as "favorable." Erzberger spent a good night in the prison, but examination has revealed that his expulsion blade was spintered by the bullet fired by Otto Hirschfeld, the young German student who attacked him in front of the courts building. Von Hirschfeld sits in jail. Physicians believed Erzberger will recover safely unless an infection develops.

Ex-Keiser Wants to Stay in Holland THE HAGUE, J. .. 28.—Former Emperor William observed his 61st birthday—his second since he has been at Haguenau. In a Letter Count Hohenzollern sent from Amerongen on Jan. 2 to Prince Fürstenberg and published in the Neue Zeitung of Berlin, the former emperor stated he had no desire to return to Germany, but he believed even by gen. Ludendorff, Field Marshal von Hindenburg and Admiral von Tirpitz. He said he could not bear to see the ruin in his country and that he looked forward with pleasure to living at Doorn. He and others, say the Dutch officials, reflect exactly the former emperor's attitude so far as they know. The Dutch press is beginning to show signs of alarm in consequence of Holland's refusal to grant the extrajudicial former ruler, but it is learned that the emperor and determined to stick to its attitude. 50 ```markdown ``` SATURDAY, JANUARY 31, 192 HOR-TONA For Skin and Soalp Every woman wants a beautiful head of hair.

ETTA JOHNSON, BEAUTY CULTURIST. Pry System used and taught. Full line of toilet articles and hair goods on sale. 00 Egg Ars, Jersey City, N. J. 32-30-65 A few months ago a man saw an advertisement in a paper which stated that a tailor, shop was for sale in a good location. He made an investment in the business, so well satisfied with the prospects that he withdrew $500 from the bank borrowed some more money and purchased the business. He made some of the materials and was beginning to build good trade when he was notified by the landlord that his rent would be raised. He was also informed by the landlord that if he didn't pay the interest, he would have to move inside of 30 days. The tenant soon found out that he was in a very serious position, because he elder had to pay the increase in the rent or move to a new location. He had to pay the increase again. It is a splendid thing to see any of our Race go into business, especially when he is trying to conduct a business which will be a benefit to himself, his family and the community in the same way. He must learn the same time we ought to learn to do business in a business-like manner. And one of the first things every business man should do is to have a lease of the premises which will enable him to build up a good business and also keep the trade he has developed.

The relations of the races were discussed pro and con by leading members of our group. Governor Thomas W. Bickett of North Carolina delivered the ablest and most comprehensive address, among things, he said, "The white man owes it to his own tradition, to his own self-respect and to his own self-preservation to guarantee to your race South, in denying to your people any participation in the making and in the administration of the law, makes them the law. It requires sense and sympathy and patience to work out a reformation; real greatness and progress or men, or of nations are assumed, not by their contribution to the forces that make life brighter and sweeter for the average man."

Views of Mr. Smith of Tennessee THERE IS NO REASON in the world why Mr. Bolton Smith of Tennessee shouldn't have views on the eternal race question. Everybody else has, but unfortunately the columns of the Congressional Record are not open to every one. Congressman McKellar paved the way for Mr. Smith and readers of this government journal can digest at will his "Philosophy of Race Relations." One of the first things to do in writing an article is to get a start. It doesn't much matter whether you take a hackneyed subject and clothe it in a new dress, or spring something entirely new, after you get a start you can roam about at will. Mr. Smith chose the former and starts out thus: "When we think of Negro progress we ask ourselves: Will not his progress result in a growing demand for social equality, and since we will never consent to social equality, why should we make our problem more difficult by aiding the progress which would seem to lead to it? So firmly fixed is this thought that as soon as any one begins to discuss the lynchings of Negroes or to call for their better education many people at once conclude you are an advocate of social equality and intermarriage as the ultimate solution of the Race question." LIKE A DROWNING MAN grasping for a straw, so the white American clings to his nightmare, social equality. Without this specter ever before him he would be at a loss for an excuse to harass us. It is so filimay, so utterly absurd, so far fetched and idiotic, we gasp in amazement at these "superior" beings and thank our stars that our education along these lines at least has been sadly neglected. There is no such thing as equality, social or otherwise. Nature abhors equality, evidence of which is everywhere to be found. Within the ranks of the white race there are stratas and stratas, only the line of demarkation is not emphasized by color. IT IS WITHIN THE POWER of each individual to surround himself or herself with those and only those who are congenial. This being true, why fear and discredit others? As far as the thinking class of our group is concerned, there is absolutely no desire to mingle in a social way with white people. We are selfish enough and particular enough to mingle with those of our own, and we would thank many of the whites to follow our example. To rub elbows with us in a ball room, to dine with us in a cafe is too close contact, it spells social equality; to prey on our women, to mongrelize our Race—well, that is a horse of another color. Consistency, thon art a jewel. LET MR. SMITH again have the floor. "One advantage accruing to the Negro from Race separateness. Consider how harmful to the Negro girl and how destructive of the purity of the Negro home it would be if white men with their superior manners, education and wealth, could freely mingle in Negro society without loss of standing in their own; yet this is exactly what social equality would bring about. Some may be surprised at the suggestion that there may be purity in the Negro home, but all things are relative. * * * * It is plain that the introduction of white men into Colored society would make progress in self-control much more difficult. * * * * The white man moving in Negro society would be as Louis XIV moving among his vassals. Nor is it necessary to assume that the white man is especially bad, but it does seem that when brought in contact with a woman possessing any element of physical attraction, but for whom he feels no respect, the sexual passion in man does assert itself powerfully." SURELY MR. SMITH does not mean to say the white man is so morally weak he cannot be trusted to play the part of a gentleman when thrown in the company of prepossessing women, even if those women are not in his social strata. Surely he does not mean to belittle the charms of the fair sex in the white race? White men with "their superior manners" seem to be not averse to certain forms of "social equality." In the light of these facts how could we assume "the white man is necessarily bad?" Certainly not. Society winks at the caprices of the white man, while the mob lynches the Colored man when they suspicion he even looked at a white woman. Pleasant facts to contemplate, but facts nevertheless. "AMERICA IS AND MUST REMAIN A WHITE MAN'S COUNTRY. The only question is, Shall this end be achieved by the Prussian method of pure coercion or shall we give sympathy and justice a fair trial?" With all due respect to Mr. Smith and others of his ilk, we are forced to take issue with him on the question of ownership of this country. Might does not make right and it is well to remember that there is a vast difference between the Indian and the black man. The Negro is not "a ward of the nation," never was and never will be. Better say the white people of the south were wards of the Negro, for it was by the sweat of the black man's brow the southern white man lived and had his being. WE AGREE with the writer in this point, that there is a middle ground, but that middle ground must have none of the earmarks of the "equal accommodations" that are a part and pareal of the high-handed methods in use in certain sections of this country. Our sole request has been for an even break, politically and industrially. We long to be let alone that we may work out our own salvation. If we could but impress on the minds of harmful racial agitators that social equality is more obnoxious to us than to them, they would cease their mouthings and peace and harmony would prevail, but we fear our labors along this line would be fruitless, so we will be charitable and console ourselves with the thought that when we are the subject of their wrath they are not panning other innocent people. "VENGEANCE IS MINE, SAITH THE LORD." The report from the health department shows that 495 people died from the Flu in the Kenwood and Hyde Park districts. The highest record of any section in the city. HOLDING UP WOMEN on the streets and relieving them of their fur coats and jewelry is one of the tricks of the modern robber. To avoid this unpleasant experience those who have business calls them out rights should either manage to have an escort or leave their valuables at home. CORPORATION COUNSEL FETELSON's fight for a 5 cent fare on the Chicago surface lines has solidified his position with the people to such an extent that regardless of party he would secure enough votes to elect him to any position within the gift of the people. "TOO MUCH PRECAUTION can't be used by the public in making sure that the census man is not an impostor," says a writer in a New York daily, this is a very simple matter. When the stranger calls give him the complete information about his money you have and in what part of the house you keep it in. You then wasted hours. If you still have the money you know he was a census man, otherwise you he was a leading burglar. OH, FOR THE OLD SLEIGH, the old gray mare and those country rides of those sweet yesterday. CHICAGO DEFENDER OH YES, THEY'RE BOTH POLICE SERGEANTS, BUT ONLY WHITE ONES ARE ALLOWED TO WEAR THE UNIFORM AND STRIPES HUH! CHICAGO J. ROGERS + A.M. FIELDS A LIFE FOR A LIFE WHETHER CAPITAL PUNISHMENT acts as a deterrent for crime is questioned by many authorities on criminology. It is held the taking of a life for a life is a relic of barbarianism and is not as effective as placing the criminal in prison walls and giving the public the benefit of his life's labor. The laws of prison are being carried out to the letter, yet we see no better results than we shown by states that do not make out the extreme penalty. MUCH COMMENT was occasioned when some two or three hundred dangerous inmates were held at Chicago were permitted to witness the hunging of a fellow criminal, the man who could this same line of reasoning be extended to those who form the numerous bunching parties in the South? When they have dragged a human being through the public streets to the spot where the "festivities" are to be held, the inmates are to be held in a guise of gangsy as he burns to death, are they better men and women for having taken part and witnessed this orgy? Arthur Brishane in the Herald-Examiner says: IF YOU MADE two hundred gorillas look on while you strangled one of them, you should not be the gorillas say to themselves, "Good idea. I shall choose the white man for the first." Mr. Brishane's point is well taken. The one who joins the murderous mob the first time finds his conscience troubles him less each succeeding time, he son develops into a hardened criminal and turns from his natural pray, the gorillas say to himself, "The man who was the first instance of this was the case of Leo Frank, a prominent Jew, who, though already in the clutches of the law, met his death at the hands of such barbarians. In late years we have had many such instances. The voices that have remained silent when we were the sufferers are raised to the skies when the cries reach OF COURSE WE HAVE LAWS designed to fit this class of people, but of what awaits is a law if public sentiment is against carrying it out? We have never asked for new laws, simply an enforcement of old ones. We have never asked for new laws, but we have never dealt. When an offender once gets in the clutches of the law, the mob need have no fear of him not getting full measure, but whatever the action of a properly constituted court we accept it and uphold the rulings. The can white man say, I BELIEVE FOR A LIFE is the modern and most effective way of lessoning crime, let us have our share of executions done legally the same as our white brothers. If there must be spectators let them be confined as criminals the same as was done in Chicago and not men and women enjoying the freedom to fight to disrupt by forming mob and taking the law into their own hands. Gorillas are all right in their place, but their place isn't among civilized people. SUPPORTING OUR OWN INSTITUTIONS THE QUESTION IS OFTEN ASKED, what are we doing in the way of rendering financial aid to our various institutions of learning, and the question in most cases goes unanswered, for the reason that very many we have interest in, and expect to remain wards of the white people, Hampton, Tuskegee, Fisk Howard, Talladega and scores of other schools have been made possible by their generosity. Only a comparatively small sum—and that within the past few years—has been contributed by those of us who have been directly or indirectly benefited from the REACHED the point where we are able to render greater financial assistance and our friends of the other race have reached the point where they expect us to relieve them, partially at least, of the drain on their purses to support seats of learning devoted exclusively to our uplift. To the philanthropic men and women who made possible for us to get to schooling in a school where we are not able to do so, to adding us, we are deeply indebted, and now that many of us are in a position to not only help ourselves but our brothers also, it should be our sacred duty to do so. WE HAVE REACHED all forms of segregation, conditions in the south make it imperative that we have our own institutions supported in the main by our own efforts and by the efforts of the charitably inclined white people of the north. The school facilities for the white youth of the south are far below standard. What then can we expect for our youth? The burden of carrying on our work for the generosity of us gives them there in the educational world that we cannot afford. NOR SHOULD WE FORGET the appeal for funds made by northern universities that have exceptionally fair to us. For instance, right here in Chicago the Northwestern University has just sent out an "S. O. S." call for funds. When we remember that many of our young men and women graduated from our schools, we should close our purses to their request for help—certainly not. We are prospering, let us not forget the bridges that carried us across the turbulent streams. ENVIRONMENT is everything. In San Antonio, Tex., Jack Johnson is socializing with the upper ten and living on the fat of the land. In America he is regarded as an outcast and a fugitive from justice. Some difference. KEEP YOUR FEET DRY is our Dr. William's advice and the chances of the flu fluing your way are slim. THE "NOT A NICKEL" CLUB is enrolling thousands of members and its plan of having each member pledge themselves not to spend a nickel unnecessarily should bring down the H. C. of L. THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING to take the joy out of the white man. Middle Europe is now agitated over the possibility of the "yellow peril" overcoming it and Japan in due time, it is feared, will be supreme authority' in the Far East. BY PATRONIZING business houses owned and conducted by members of our own group we are building a solid foundation for the rapid advancement of our young men and women in the commercial world. If we do not help each other we might just as well give up the fight for a place in the sum. Individually our power is practically nil. Collectively we can demand the things we now plea for. Let us be a living example of LePage's glue (not an advertisement). IF THEY REALLY WANT a "dark horse" to trot up and nab the nomination for president, why not pick him from our group? AS THE DAYS ROLL ON it becomes more difficult to predict other party nominations as a result, both besides having a favorite son, is putting to the fore one or more of their prominent men. There is confusion in the thought, however, that the country will have a new administration. KEEPING UP THE FIGHT THE SAVANNAH CHAPTER of registry registered their protest against a of James Russell Lowell, an ardent and directed by the Savannah Women's F County men who served in the late war priate to use an inscription written by R.

If so she has not lost much the womanly position she has taken. connected with all things that interest visited we were on the job and strata certainly are great people. THE SAVANNAH CHAPTER of the United Daughters of the Confederacy registered their protest against the use of the quotation from the works of James Russell Lowell, an ardent abolitionist, on the memorial tablet to be erected by the Savannah mourners Federation, the memory of them chosen to them. They are supposed to them accordingly appropriate to use an inscription written by a northerner when something from the pens of such southerners as Father Ryan, James R. Randall, Sydney Lanier or Henry W. Graddy could be found. Because that inscription made sure that the gulf between the two sections is still far from being bridged, and while they claim "the action is taken without malice or prejudice" the effect is the same. Presumably the tablet will be recast, as several initials were incorrect and one name, in the wrong place—that name was that of a Colored man, among the names of the white men—shocking. But of that mistake Mrs. Graddy says, it seemed rather inconsistent. The man who was the first to insist that necessitate correcting or recasting a tablet—did he not serve the cause as the white man? Did he not give his life for his country and for what he believed to be right as did the white man? Why need there have been any distinction why not an alphabetically arranged set of names, if we must maintain that fine distinction? We ECHO WHY INDEED, but we fear Mrs. Grady in expressing this lofty view has invited the wrath of the narrow minded Daughters of the Confederacy. If so she has not lost much, for the rest of the world will applaud the womanly position she has taken. Some Americans, when they visited us were on the job and straight on the line to dog fight. We certainly are great people. Blacksmith Who Earned Thousands Dies Suddenly Anderson, S.

Our Advice We advise that you observe/classifications of person, keep your hands clean. Do not wipe your nose on your hands. If your hands come in contact with a solid naphthol or handkerchief that you use to expectorate, immediately wash your hands before handling (lights or shaking hands with your neighbor). The health commissioner of Chicago advises you not to shake hands, but only to salute. Spend your evenings at home reading and socializing with your family and avoid overheated, overcrowded places of assemblage. People can catch influenza in a home overcrowded revival—in an overheated church—and more people are sneezing and coughing without properly covering their nose and mouth, as easily as you can at an overcrowded movie theater's poolroom and other places where people do not observe the laws of bylene and right living.
