April 2—The price of boys has greatly slumped since "before the war" in this part of the country. Then a good, healthy boy brought $2,000 under the peonage system which is prevalent throughout the South. Today Theodore Smith (white) interposed the plea in a trial over the possessor of a brown skin boy that he mother purchased for her mother last fall for $5, and a shoot. Held Slave Temporarily The little bright eyed fellow, held a slave temporarily, is 15 years old and just the right size to be hendy with the little girl. He swore after the sale and the grandmother swore out a writ of habeas corpus for the boy. The court held that, while the mother's fondness for knowledge of the mother's fondness for the child owing to the prevailing high price of everything, he would be forced to hold that $5 and a shoat was too little to afford. The judge judgment put the grandmother into possession of the boy. Smith to Take Appeal Smith was very much disturbed over the ruling of the court and threatened an appeal to a higher tribunal, where, he declared, one's rights acquired in a purchase would be amply protected. He cited several cases where white men had purchased Colored boys for less than he had paid for the had in question. Slavery in Memphis The same condition is said to exist in Memphis, Tenn., and neighboring towns. A condition of slavery equally as asexacting as the slavery known before it exists today in Shelby county. Boys being picked up by the juvenile court for trivial offenses, are required to serve longer terms at hard labor than many men who have been convicted of serious crimes. They are sent to the Shelby county industrial school at work that "bound over" to work for influential men in the county without pay until they become 21 years of age.

It was this way: In January, 1919, I got a little Negro from the industrial school. He got bad I had to send him back, I applied to Mr. Lloyd to send me another.

COURT Want Chambliss Bonds Lowered The fight to reduce the bond in the case of Ex-Policeman Dorsey Chambliss, held in connection with the death of Bortha Wiebeck, 22-year-old white woman of Pawnee Rock, Kan., began Wednesday morning before Judge Renee Pam in the criminal court. Attorneys F. L. Barnett and J. G. Cotter, representing the defendant, closed cases to show that the former policeman's bond of $50,000 for seduction and abduction was far in excess of bonds allowed in similar cases. The Judge Hugo Pam BERTON Wiebock, 22-year-old white woman of Pawnee Rock, Kan., began Wednesday morning before judge Benson Pam in the criminal court. Attorneys F. L. Barnett and J. G. Cotter, answering the defendant, cited cases to show that the former policeman's bond of $60,000 for seduction was far in excess of the bonds allowed in similar cases. The bond imposed that the highest bond did not exceed $5,000, and this covers a period of over ten years. McShane Maker Objection Assistant State's Attorney McShane objected to the lowering of the bonds, stating that it was upon the recommendation of the grand jury which Chambills received the original liquor charge. Judge Pam requested McShane to show reason why the bonds of Chambills should differ from those in other cases. Chambills argued with the same offense, regardless of the instructions of the grand jury. Court Demands Evidence "I am going to give this man every opportunity under the law to receive a fair and impartial trial," said Judge Doe, who cannot believe he should be subjected to any more than any other citizens in the ordinary walk of life accused of crime. I see no reason why this man should be subject to his temporary freedom pending the hearing of the court simply because the grand jury recommended the bond remain, unchanged, and I shall look to the state's attorney's office to offer conclusive-proof to this court in order to ensure that the bonds in this particular case are not excessive." Proceeding the remarks of the judge O'Connor Barnett produced evidence to show that the bonds ranged from $3,000 to $5,000. Court adjourned until Thursday morning at which time time Assistant Judge Attorney McShane is expected to show evidence. Chambliss should be held in jail pending his trial under such a heavy bail.

C. Error in Case Cited That plain error, of such a nature as to indicate undue haste in the conviction of the twelve men, and prejudice the entire procedure in the Phillips County Circuit court, was shown in the form in which the jury returned a verdict in six of the twelve cases, was the contention of Col. George W. Murphy (white) of the firm, M. McMahon of Little Rock presented in an address to the Supreme court, regarded by attorneys who heard it as one of the most masterful ever heard in this section. The chief error assigned by Col. Murphy as a reason for reversal was that the jury, in six cases, returned a verdict of "guildy as charged in the indictment," instead of "guildy of murder in the first degree, as charged in the indictment," the form used in the other six cases, which Col. Murphy declared that inasmuch as the indictments charged the men with everything from first degree murder to manslaughter, the jury was under the necessity of Kills Wife, Shoots Her Sister and Wounds Selt Bessener, Ala., April 2.—Without displaying the slightest anger, John Humbles, formerly of Birmingham, entered the home of Mrs. Nathan Banka Sunday afternoon, shot and killed his sister, slightly wounded his sister-in-law, fired at her deceiving, husband and then short himself.

Verdict Not Clear He contended that their failure to so make their verdict clear was only evidence of conditions of which he said the entire state was cognizant, "that undue haste was inevitable, in view of the general state of the public mind in Phillips county." This haste, which he said was of necessity, nature of the trials at Helena, was proper to strict justice. "Everybody knew these verdicts were rendered just what they would be." Col. Murphy said. Makes Eloguent Plea The specific error in the six incomplete verdicts, Col. Murphy contended, was evidence in support of the genius of the conditions prevailed which made a man the only trial impossible. He concluded his address in an unusually eloquent fashion, declaring that because of the Race of the condemned men, because of which the outside world was watching him, he had the cases, and because of the well known state of mind that was prevalent following the Elaine troubles, it was unusually important that every requirement of the law, every technical skill, be rightfully the interest of the twelve convicted men. Attorney Scipio Jones, prominent member of the Race here, is keeper of records in the cases. There are 22 cases yet to be tried.

Police Fire at Pickpocket A young, stylish looking youth dashed from the Black Star Line meeting hall on West 135th street last Friday evening, with a crowd of men in pursuit velling, "Catch him!" The two who proved to be Frank Brown, 212° Johnson avenue, ran through W. 177th street and passed by H. Lewis, a reserve of the 83th precinct. By this time several hundred persons were running after Brown. The sergeant called to Brown and other officers joined in the Chase. Lewis dung five shots that did not cause him to be hit. He was afterward captured at 5th street and a street by other officers. Thousands were attracted to the scene during the excitement and the policemen escorted their prisoner to Liberty hall, where the meeting was in progress. An angry crowd congregated in front of the hall and they only set free for lack of evidence from the men who said they had seen the culprit put his hands in a man's pocket during the meeting.

Many people out out the services. Dr. Heyder discussed the triumphal entry of Jesus, the prophet, into the Holy City, 2,000 years ago. The pastor drew the picture of how the Christ is still entering the international climate, and international life and drawing tude after him in the service of humanity. Three persons joined the church at the close of the sermon. At the evening service the pastor reached the annual sermon to Hannah and the offering for the day was $175.50.

If it is found to be impossible to take outdoor exercises then they should take gymnastic exercises such as provided for in the physical departments of our Y. M. C. A's., Y. W. C.

Deep breathing and vigorous exercises such as above indicated sends the blood to all parts of the body, taking off waste matter and giving a healthy tone to the muscles and skin. The general health is an important factor in the care of the skin. One of the duties of the skin is the eliminating of the poisons of the body. If you keep your skin in perfect Americanism has been defined as the "Love of American citizens for their country, or the preference of its institutions." But true Americanism is obedience to law and order. The Negro calmly submitted to slavery. Even when that was imposed upon him, even as a slave, with docility, patience and fidelity, he did the bidding of his master. And when these inhuman and unnatural bonds of slavery were broken he transferred his allegiance to the government. He does not believe in industrial unrest, but in the right to live and to let live. Having this disposition to recognize and to abide under organized government, he then contents himself to enter upon peaceful duties, occupying himself with those pursuits which best such a manner of life. Who else of all our varied population has lived so close to Mother Earth? Who else has caressed her hills and valleys and coaxed from her furrows the food, the clothing and the crops which are the main props of the nation? As an artisan and as a professional man he has thoroughly imbibed the spirit of America and is today standing second to none. In the religious and social world he has made rapid strides. His spirit has gone out, as it were, and caught hold on the less fortunate in all climes. His love for humanity goes beyond the bounds of a race and takes in suffering mankind everywhere. As a result of his Christian spirit, schools, asylums and almshouses dot this and the beighted continent of Africa. A strain of Americanism flows through his very being. As a race the Negro participates in almost every phase of government activities. In 1910 the Negroes throughout America held 7,500 government positions and furpished four regiments to the standing army. His preference for American institutions can best be adjudged by his willingness to serve America in the best manner in her hours of peril and by his fervent desire to protect her interest on land or on sea. In the various Liberty Loan drives his dollars have flowed in an unbroken stream until they now reach far into the millions. Aside from these peaceful pursuits in which the Negro has acquitted himself with the true qualities of Americanism, he has stood the test in the great crises of the nation. When the tocsin of war was sounded and the roll of the drum was heard throughout the land, the love of the Negro for America and America's institutions did ```markdown ``` --- ```markdown ``` FIRST PRIZE, $100.00, UZZIAH MINER, HOWARD UNIV., WASHINGTON, D.

EDMONDSON Lincoln University, Chester County, Pa. not wane. Unlike the foreigner who comes to our shores for selfish interest and gain and who is content to remain outside the pale of American citizenship, he has no fatherland to usurp a portion of his love. America is his home and to America is due his love, his loyalty, his protection and his service. The Negro is 100 per cent American. He is not a bolshevist, nor does he believe in anarchistic practices. His highest interest is in the principles upon which the foundations of the government rest. Life, liberty, domestic tranquility, common defense and the pursuits of happiness are ideals which bind his heart and hold him as true to them as the force of gravity does the planets in their onward sweep through the vast immensity of space. For the Negro to prove false to these ideals is as impossible as it is for steel, without the aid of some other attracting force, to rush heedlessly from a magnet. At the outbreak of the great war with Germany it it was a question in the minds of many as to what steps should be taken in regard to the Negro. Some Race haters challenged the patriotism of the Negro. German propagandists extended their arms to entrap or to curtail the powers of the Race and to mar the immaculate record of ages. All eyes were turned, as it were, on the attitude which the Race would take against the government which had for centuries abused and curtailed every right and privilege that belonged to any race or people in a free and democratic country. Congress stood mute, as if turned into wood. So keen was the sense of injustice, crimes and atrocities that had for years been heaped upon the Negro, that even the lawmaking body of the land stood powerless to say or to act in regard to the Negro. But all of this fear and unrest was uncalled for, because the Negro, as a race, has never failed to respond to the exigencies of the government in time of a crisis or any impending or threatening evil. Notwithstanding the fact that he has President's come and go, has seen promises rise and fade like the aurora borealis, his star of hope has been raised, as it were, to a dizzy height. Buoyed up by the promises of democracy, his star of hope appeared only to shine during the hours of necessity; then, like a sweeping meteor, to fade behind the horizon of race hatred and crime and to be forgotten by that very power which has caused it to rise. He is burned at the stake, Jim-crowed and disfriended. His young and tender maidens are left without the shield THE CHICAGO DEFENDER health it will be better able to take up part of the work of the vital organs such as lungs and kidneys. If the lungs and kidneys are defective the work of the skin is much increased. The skin absorbs certain poisons and substances, the skin regulates the temperature through the sweat glands and is the most important organ. Over 90 per cent of the total loss of the heat of the body is through the skin. The March winds are known to injure the most healthy skin, if it is not properly cared for.

We as a race are subjected to all the evils that can be conceived to exist in a democracy, and yet—he remains steadfast and immovable. The qualities of love and devotion in the Negro are not strained. His patriotism flows in a constant and an eddying stream from Boston common to Chateau Thierry. He has never been a partner to the gangs who have dynamited government buildings or sent bombs through the mail to congressmen. He has never failed to uphold the ideals of this country, whether local, national or international. He has never failed to shed his blood on every battlefield on which Old Glory has waved. His hands are not stained with the gore of Presidents; he has never betrayed his country or failed to answer its calls. All of these crimes have been committed, but it was not a black hand or the soul of a black man that offended in these respects. During the great war the Race gave 400,000 men to the nation. Of this number 200,000 served overseas, with 1,500 specially trained officers. (Literary Digest, Dec. 20, 1919, p. 142.) Thousands of black Americans, along with the French, Belgians, English and their white Americans, have gone on that journey from which no mortal returns and are now closed in behind those gates from whose portals no mortal ever escapes, in order that American institutions might live and that democracy might triumphantly march on. Our women, though not wanted and discouraged by the Red Cross at first, volunteered their services unstintingly, willingly laid their lives upon the altar of service, exposed their bodies to diseases, to the risks and hazards of war, in order to prove to the world that the Negro as a whole was 100 per cent American. When we consider the evils to which the Negro woman, as well as the Race, is subjected, can there be any higher expression of Americanism displayed by any race or people than is exemplified in the spirit of love and devotion as is manifested by the women of our Race and by the Negro in general? A spirit of love and devotion has swept over the entire Race, as it were, a huge tidal wave, carrying before it all hate and malice and leaving pure and undefiled Americanism in its wake. And as the Germans exclaim, "Deutschland uber Alles," and the French, "Vive la France," so does the Negro fervently and vehemently ejaculate, "America first, America last, America forever; for you we will live and for you we will die." THIRD PRIZE, $50.00, RALPH EDMONDSON, LINCOLN UNIV., CHESTER, PENN. FOURTH PRIZE, $25.00, J. EGERT ALLEN, OKOLONA INSTITUTE, OKOLONA, MISS. FOURTH PRIZE By J. EGERT ALLEN Okolona Industrial School, Okolona, Mississippi The 300 years of American civilization and progress have been deeply dyed with the honesty, integrity and labor of the Black Man. Her rapid rise in the Economical world; her supremacy in the financial world; and her leadership in the moral world cannot be explained unless the Negro is given a place of pre-eminence. It is useles to produce his War Record, dating from the Colonial Wars, of 1704-59 to the World's War of 1914-18. History will relate and has related his readiness to respond whenever the Flag of our Republic was dishonored or the life of the Nation was at stake. Then does not the Negro recognize true Americanism and has he not practiced it for the last three centuries? Other races have given their "Benedict Arnolds" to desert the post of duty for a healthy remuneration, but not the Negro; other Races have given their "Assassins" to destroy the Executive Heads of our Country, but not the Negro; other Races have given their "Goldmans" to stir up industrial and social upheavals in America, but not the Negro. Then again I ask, does not the Negro know the true meaning of Americanism? Yea, more so than any other people. Americanism means Humanitarianism. The intuitive, sympathetic feeling, that courses through every tingling nerve of the Negro, creates in him a love for humanity as in no other Race. His conditions and present status serve to enlarge his sympathy because he has been and is still going through the mill of oppression. The "Call of Macedonia" is never heralded but that the Negro is present and ready to respond. Love of Humanity means oftentimes The use of these preparations make the Winter's wind seem as May breezes to the face. These preparations not only protect the skin from the effect of extreme cold and heat but soften and promote the velvet-like softness that is the desire of every woman. Busy housewives very often neglect to properly care for their hands, plunging them into all kinds of hot and soapy water with little thought of the after effect, resulting in unsightly rough hands. To all such we advise the use of Madam C. J. Walker's Witch Hazel Jelly. There is nothing better on the market to preserve and soften the hands. Just a pinch applied to the hands or face after exposure will preserve their natural healthy condition. Try them and if our agents cannot supply you, write to the Black man self-sacrifice. Were the Millions contributed to the Red Cross, Armenian and Syrian Relief, Jewish Relief, War Work and various other funds not needed, in a large measure, for his more unfortunate Brethren? Still, to hold high the banner of pure and unexalted Americanism, he gave "until it hurt." Americanism means Industrialism. The wheels of Progress would loss 40 per cent of their Efficiency in 24 hours, were the Hand of Race Man removed from the Cotton fields of the South, the manufacturing industries of the North and the general Industrial program of our entire country. These are the enterprises that place America at the acme of the Commercial world, and to a very large degree Negro America has placed it there. Will our Country ever be able to repay the debt to our foreparents, who, by the sweat of their brow, in the early years of American life, brought health, happiness and prosperity to their Masters? Negro Americanism will not ask this debt to be paid in gold or silver but in protection, liberty and the peaceful pursuits of happiness. Will the White Man's Americanism measure up to the Race Man's by making real that motto of America's greatest American—Roosevelt—in these words, "a square deal for all"? Will the White Man's Americanism be able to say, in the words of the greatest Humanitarian, "with malice towards none and with charity towards all"? Then will a new meaning be put into Democracy, renewed life into American industry and increased vigor in the American Negro. Americanism means "Educationalism." Although seriously hampered in the PAGE FIVE 二、 Educational world in many places, the Negro's star shines just as bright as any other star in the galaxy of intellectual power. Fifty years of limited opportunities have taken away nearly three-fourths of our illiteracy. We speak but one language, and that is American. The "Louvre" of the world has many representations in the fine arts, contributed by Negro brain and intellect. The days of Social unrest are present. All classes and creeds are flocking to the Socialistic Standard. The clarion call is pleasant to the ear, but the Negro recognizes the Siren's voice in it and realizes its unsteady foundation. His pride and patriotism refuse to allow him to forsake the Flag of Lincoln and Roosevelt. In spite of the thousands of illiterates in the far South, none will rally to the bloody "Bolshevik" battle cry. They promise him freedom; they promise him protection; they promise him wealth; they promise him political recognition, but he holds high the fluttering Stars and Stripes and loudly exclaims, there is none other besides her. In conclusion, let me again point out the 100 per cent American. The Race whose universal confidence is dogmatic in its assertion that no obstacle can thwart its progress, dull its hopes or blur its vision of its future. Their platform is firmly constructed upon the principles of Americanism and to them they will adhere or die. They may not taste all the fruits of Americanism in this day and time, but by their conduct and attitude they will surely reap the harvest for the millions of Negro Americans yet unborn. ; TWO GREAT BIG ACTS 14 BRAND NEW STAGE SETTINGS ENTIRE NEW WARDROBE BEAUTY CHOR HT, 8:15 SHARP 50c & 75c AY, 6 AND 9 P.

The engagement does not end until Sunday April 11, but don't wait too long. The Happy Cake Trio is playing here for the first time and making the patrons sit, up and take notice. It is a clever three-act and has many lines that can be recommended. Thomas & William are their neat singing, talking and dancing, back after many months' absence, and are making their usual fine impression. Thomas is a clever comedian, with his ideas, and his partner is his pretty aunt, who is in the business, with ability to match her looks. Russell & Russell, our old friend Joe and his clever partner, are so well known their work standing out in the business and individuality. One of the best women ever seen here is Jolly Joe Saunders, billed as the Juggling Jester. He was preceded by a fine reputation and is up to it. He completes as good a bill as has been seen here for some time. Rev. James M.-Webb, now of Seattle, Wash., and formerly of Chicago, IL., is at the head of the new Liberty Studio Film Co. of Los Angeles, Cal.

The Pollies and families of 1329 have "turned the ballroom into a place of record breaking, both in point of attendance and length of run. Never before in the history of a local theater has anything in the way of a show been so successful, but this group seems to have really is wanted, for there has not been the least slacking up in attendance, despite much bad weather and other drawbacks. The sort of entertainment of present day showings, for that in the loop the biggest hits of the season are the musical comedy and review variety of shows and the same condition holds good all over the country. The stereotyped vaudeville show and the different presentations have been so excellent that it would be hard to choose between them. You have not already seen "The Pollies" for busy, for this coming week is absolutely the final one. If you have seen it, see it again. It is well worth while. Buddy Brown is doing a single on the A. & H. time, and is playing the week at San Diego, Cal. Buddy had a long rest at his boyhood happy home down on the farm. He sent a fine picture of himself and some poultry (treat chickens).

Love, hate and romance is what "The Confession," which is the week's offerings at the Avenue Theater, covers, and it surely is a thrilling and of ordinary, the most impressive feature being the confession of a murder a priest, from which the play derives its title. The confessional is something strange to the stage as well as to us in the everyday routine of life, and this play gives us an insight into the sacred ceremony between priest and parishioner. PETER H. the confessional to absolve himself of his crime. He receives absolution on the promise to give himself a fide, and give himself up provided that suspicion over falls upon an innocent person. Afterward the priest learns that his own brother is accused of the crime, having been in a scuffle with the murdered man at the time the shot was fired. He knows the innocence of his brother, and the guilt of the confessional he cannot clear the accused man. Thus the guilty man is safe and the priest is powerless to save his own brother from the gallows to explicate a crime which he did not commit. It is one of the strongest themes that an author could possibly best, and is presented in a way that is most likely to be offered from the fine plays being done by the present company. Andrew Bishop has the leading character of the priest and does exceptionally well with it; it is a character away from anything that the popular young star has been called upon to portray. He is the most famous of many fine chances. J. L. Clerner, as the French Clanuck, is never better cast; he its the type exactly and demonstrates again that he is far above the ordinary as a character artist. Thomas Hartlett, brother of the priest; he very done by Lienal Monague; it is a part full of difficulties, and the young man shows his fine ability all through. Cisco Desmond as Tom's sweetheart, Rose Creighton, is playing right up to the high standard of excellence which Jesse Desmond's glorious figure is the cause of a great deal of comment among the lady patrons. Elizabeth Williams as the mother of Rose handles the part very capably, as is her custom, and Arthur Ray as the prosecuting judge and later as the Cooke as the judge and later as the spendlessly. Charles Moore, the old master, is well cast as the sexton, and H. L. Pryor as the detective is well fitted for the part. Newton Burke has a couple of minor parts with which she succeeds well, and the cast is finished. She goes good out of the characterization of Blackburn, the lawyer. THE GRAND "Tollies and Frances of 1420" is on its third big week here, and pecking them in, as usual. Both houses were sold solid on Sunday night, and the saga was right back on Monday. Frank Montgomery and his clever bunch are approved fashion, and this is the next to the final week. Never in the history of the Stroll has a company hit them as hard as has this one. It truly is all in the offering and in the manner in which it is being presented. The fact that the same faces are seen often shows, for it is on them we will stand, repeat. If you haven't seen it do; so if you have, look it over again. It is out of the ordinary, and if there is anything on its way that will stand one-half the run and enjoy one-band the popularity we will wait for it with The Buzzer' Burton Co. are the big nose at the Standard theater this week.

BIBLICAL FILM FINAL WEEK --- The Greatest Musical Success of the Decade "THE FORGED BRIDE" A new Mary MacLaren picture always is welcome. The States theater announces for Easter Sunday "the late production production starring this American beacon," and called "The Forged Bride," and is based on the story by J. G. Hawks, "Sins of the Father," and deals with life on both the seamy and velvet sies. Douglas Gerrard directed the production, and the charming star is surrounded by a cast of superior excellence, including Barney Sherry, Thomas Jefferson, Harold Miller, Dagmar Godowitsch, and John B. In "The Forged Bride" Miss MacLaren is seen as Peggy Reynolds, a soda fountain girl at a summer resort, whose popularity attracts many customers, especially the young men of the city. Peggy's father, Bill, is a notorious forger, and long a term in the state legislative Dick Van Courtland, fresh from college, is smitten with Peggy's charms, woo her in lust and overcomes the immediate marriage. Dick takes his immediate palatial home, where his mother, an aristocrat, keeps house for Judge Farrell, the boy's relative and guardian. Dick, who hopes to become Dick's wife, Peggy is put on a year's probation in the home of wealth, white Clara Ramirez tries to undermine the girl by discovering and revealing her anticlerical nature, prison walls, learns of the plan to shatter his girl's happiness, escapes, and by the cleverest piece of forgery of his career, makes it appear that Peggy is not the boy Dick Farrell, who had been kidnapped as an infant. Dick and Peggy are re-united.

The Versatile Four are playing the first of a four weeks engagement at the Lyric theater, Kansas City, Mo. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER REAL SINGERS D THE STRONGER THAN DEATH Nazimova, the brilliant Russian star, in her newest production, "Stronger Than Death," is announced by the management of the Vondome Theater as the special attraction, beginning on October 1 and ending on three days. The presentation of this great artist in a great photo-dramm is described as a particular treat for motion picture-goers. In "Stronger Than Death," Nazimova returns to powerful emotional roles and captures the spirit of the chorus walt in her picturization of Maude Fulton's Belasco stage play, "The Brut." Nazimova is cast as Sigrid, a London music hall dancer, who finds love in the almost wilderness of India, where she goes for a rest. The story is an adaptation by Chas. Bryant of L. A. R. Wylie's brilliant novel of Anglo-Indian life. It is said to be replete with thrills and compelling dramatic climaxes that grow on an abortive mutiny and massacre of an English planned by the fanatical natives. Nazimova's biggest scene is her dance on the steps of the temple—a weird dance in the moonlight which stills dance and terror to the hearts of their uprising until the British garrison comes to the rescue of the civilian community of Gaya. Her sacrifice is rewarded by the devotion of the hermit doctor, the strong male figure in the scene. Herbert Blache and Charles Bryant directed the star in the big production, which is one of greatest beauty from the scenic and photographic angles. It was produced under the personal supervision of Maxwell Charger, Nazimova's director of theatrical. Mr. Bryant plays a major Tristram Boucleau, the hermit doctor. Others in the superb cast are Charles W. French, Margaret McWade, Herbert Piller, Millie Davenport, Henry Harmon, Jibogwan Singh and W. H. Orlala. The picture is a Metro release. FINE NOTICE Here is another splendid notice for the 20th Century Four, headed by Walker Thompson, and featured with the great broadway musical comedy success, "See-Saw," now playing the final week of a long engagement at the Colonial Theater, Chicago. The See-Saw musical comedy, gets away with a slow start, but with the introduction of a black-face quartet at the opening of the third act, things begin to hum and the piece goes on. "See-Saw" lacks an outstanding comedian, but it boasts something of a story, hard-working principals, two or three Louis Hirsh melodies that stick with you, and the black-singer. The latter named opus with both good and bad songs, and their best bit with a crooning tune, at the same time putting on a very realistic erap game." A fine letter arrived from Joe Loomis, with Lyric road show, now playing Bessamer. The cast includes Sid Pewis, Shirley Henderson, Jhnnie Spear, Rosa Henderson, Leather Bison, Dearice Bruce, Iris Hull, Long Boy and Joe Loomis. The latter wants to hear from Arthur Winn of the Merry Makers, and Walter Jones of Jones & Jones. MON'S RES. BELL POPLAR 905 RD THEATER er and Directing Manager PHILADELPHIA, PENNA.

The act has been a familiar one to Hurtford audiences for years, both for dances and burlesque, but it never went the same way. The young present engagement, as the proud young star and her clever dancing and aerobic boys are stopping proceedings at every performance. It is a good show throughout, many burlesque headliners being in the east. Next week, the Jacques Theater, Waterbury, Conn. 'SOLDIERS O' FORTUNE' Extensive travel, wide newspaper experience, and the faculty of observing life, made the late Richard Harding Davis one of the leading figures in American Literature. One of his best known novels, "Soldiers of Fortune," has been selected by Allan K. Moore for feature production as an independent author and will soon have a run at the States and Owl theaters. Mr. Davis was born in Philadelphia, Arkansas, and educated at Lenox and John H. Moore, who can his career as a correspondent for New York newspapers, and in 1888 joined the New York Sun, to which he contributed his early fiction. He was managing editor of Harper's Weekly for many years. Some of his best known books were "Three Gringoes in Central America," "The West From a Car Window," "Our English Cousins," "Cuba in Wartime," "Cubers of the Mediterranean," and a work by the Boer War. He died April 11, 1916. Mr. Davis' descriptive abilities made possible the popular success of his book, and Director Dwan's keen perception made the translation of the book a success, as measured by tumph. The story lends itself particularly to the art of photoplay. Full of colorful situations, verile action and artistic atmosphere, the Davis theme supplies Mr. Dwan with materials that make this production one of the best view on local screens this year. Tommy Carter, with the Farrell Taylor Co. is playing the week between Kenosha, Wis., and Terre Haute, Ind. Tim & Gerrie Moore's Stock Co. is playing the second week of an indie production by Grand Central theater, Cleveland, Ohio.

FRANK MONTGOMERY LAURA BROWN, MUSICAL DIRECTOR ADDITIONAL MUSIC BY JOE JORDAN HOME OF REAL ENTERTAINMENT STATE STREET AT 31ST PHONE DOUGLAS 500 "HEART STRINGS" Proof that William Farnum, whom William Fox will present in "Heart Strings" on Thursday and Friday, April 5 and 9, at the States theater, April 5 and 9, at the States theater, United States, is furnished by the book of correspondence which followed the publication in a London motion picture magazine of a short paragraph to the effect that Mr. Farnum was exhancing difficulty in getting new materials to be printed; he is pleased to consider original stories for photodramas. From the voluminous mail daily received by Mr. Farnum it would appear that the British Isles have settled down to write stories for their favorite star. Situations involving heroic sacrifices and perilous situations abound in these manuscripts. In fact the star's life was tempted to film all the stories offered. In one story the action called for Farnum to pursue the villain in a swift airplane, overtake him in midair, jump to his machine and overcome him in a firecattle, finally subdue him just as they reach the earth. A Scotch lassie submitted a scenario in which the action took place in the heart of the African jungle, Mr. Pumum recording "battle with a fierce lion, grasping the jaws of the great beast and with his mighty strength ripping the jaws apart." JUST LIKE DAD The accompanying picture is a fine likeness of Robert Slater Jr., son of Bob Slater of Slater Bros. fame. The youngster has a theatrical break right and seems destined to live up to it. He is playing a juvenile part, that of "Phineas in the big production called "Little Miss Charity" and is on the fifth week, the show having opened for a breakout hit late in February. It is now at the Crescent, Brooklyn, N. Y. It goes from likeness of Robert Slater, Jr., son of Bob Slater of Slater Bros., fame. The youngster has a theatrical birthright and seems destined to live up to it. He is playing a jovial part, that of Phineas, in a big production called "Little Miss Charity" and is on the fifth week, the show having opened for a brief time late in February. It is now at the Crescent, Brooklyn, N. Y. It goes from there to Broadway for an indefinite run. Bobby Jr. has done so well with this great musical comedy that he has had many special mentions in the press nadays. He is an actor more than ordinary good singing voice and is a dancer of more than passing ability. Green & Pugh, the Boys Who Stuck, are setting pretty on the Pan and playing the week at the Pantages Theater, Oakland, Cal. SATURDAY, APRIL 3, 1920 TO SEE IT! AIN 1920 S AND LYRICS BY MONTGOMERY IN, MUSICAL DIRECTOR MUSIC BY JOE JORDAN ANS ENTERTAINMENT STEET AT 31ST DOUGLAS 500 'SMOLDERING EMBERS' Much has been written and sung about the greatness of mother love, but seldom do we hear of the strong, and watchful, love and care of a father, and the potent forces which, unheralded, unsung, guide the destinies of human kind. In Frank Keenan's latest Pathe reel "moderling Embers," announced as the foremost eminent lily, the Owl theater on Sunday, father love is amplified to the highest degree. Frank Keenan portrays a vagabond who finds only and lost son reared amid wealth and poverty, and care over the boy, his yearning take him in his arms, his self-sacrifice, is bound to touch the heartstrings of those who see. He is written by Kate Corbatey, who wrote Keenan's "Gates Brass" and "The False Code," is a romantic one centering about the vagabond's son and his love for the co-bachelor. The plot is complicated by the beauty he brings to marry a girl he does not love farther his stepfather's social ambitions. Jay Belasco and Kate Van Buren recount the young shoulders the romance burden. He and Frances Raymond. Hardie Kirkland, Thomas Guise, Russell Powell. Gra- tine and Burwick Hemrick are others necessary to the telling of this tender romance.

Dudley, known as the "Live Wire of the Middle West," has made a "sweet skier," Hearts" for all of men. This is the picture that broke many attendance records in the East in the past few weeks. It is a remarkably interesting feature, the story being of tense heart interest and full of exciting and thrilling moments. Dudley does not allow expense, time and ability to interfere with his "best for my patrons" idea is testified to by the fact that he traveled all the way to New York City to sign contracts for the engagement. It is also understood that he traveled the booking for the picture in this territory. The Vaudette is located at 244 Gratif avenue, Detroit, Mich. Los Angeles, Cal.

VISITS MOLINE Moline, Kan., April 2—Mrs. Leon H. Williams, Kansas City, Mo., is spending a few weeks with the town, Mrs. Charles Gholson. While in city she has been highly entertained and has taken in all the points of interest. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER INEZ CLOUGH Popular Lafayette Player Has Had Successful Career Among the members of the Lafayette Players not one hold more popular favor than the subject of this short sketch—Inez Clough, or Mrs. H. P. Hogan, as she is known in private life—her husband being one of New York City's most popular railroad men. The I lady is a New Englander, having been born some time ago at Worcester, Mass. She was educated in that town and at Boston, specializing in vocal and piano, being coached in the former in London, England, and Leipzig, Germany, before aboard her first experience in the school. Her first experience was gained with Isham's Oriental America some 24 years back. After a season in America the troupe made it to Europe, where Miss Clough remained, after severing connections, as she lived in London for years and sang in the principal music halls of the Britishies. For five years she worked in the English pantomimes, three as "principal boy" and two as fairy queen, the offerings being the celebrated and eminently successful presentations of Red Riding Hood, Dick Whittington and turned to America and toured with Cole & Johnson's Shoo Fly Regiment, leaving it to join the Williams & Walker company, with which she remained for five years or up to the time of the death of George Walker. She then turned to vaudeville and covered a section of the U, B, O. At the time of the organizing of the Lincoln stock company, in New York, Miss Clough was one of the first enrolled. She later signed as one of the initial members of the Lafayette Players and has continued with them since, with the exception of a member of Mrs. Happgood's Negro Players, who were a sensation on Broadway. Her work with this latter company was of such class that she was listed among the ten best Broadway actresses by the critic representing The Smart Set magazine, and the actor, said that Miss Clough had one of the most perfect speaking voices that he had ever heard. Inez Clough-Hogan is one of the handsomest women on the stage and despite the fact that much of her time spent on the stage has a beautiful appeal at 2258 Seventh Avenue New York City. She is a great student of the times and keeps right up to the minute by reading the Defender every week, even as you and I. Robert W. Chambers, one of Indianapolis, Ind.'s most popular young men, was a caller at the Old Roll Top Desk late last week. He was visiting the theater and told me that Wabash Avenue, and thought that he get acquainted before the summer rush, which pleased us very much. The Maffie Dorsy Duo is playing the week at the Standard Theater, Philadelphia, Pa. "THE SPENDTHRIFT" This play is another of the masterpieces of dramatic skill from the pen of Porter Emerson Browne, the author of "A Fool There Was," which created a sureure of favorable comment when he uttered it at some time ago, with Abbie Mitchell and Laurence Chenault in the title roles. "The Spendthrift" even goes "A Fool There Was" one better, being ruled as an even better success than the "Vampire" creation, founded on Mr. Kiplinger's poem of the same name. The story of the play is that of Frances and Richard Ward. He is a prosperous stock broker, of working, saving, and home-loving instincts—saving the butterfly, to whom a new motor car or a new house is most important. By humoring her extravagant whims, Ward brings himself to the brink of ruin. Severe retrenchment is necessary. With his eyes open to his foolish course he prepares to make the necessary sacrifices and sacrifices, ignorant of the simplest rudiments of her husband's business and unwilling to accept the condition of comparative poverty which threatens, attempts to rescue them by seeking the aid of a man friend, who is more able with money than discretion. She borrows money from this man and by doing so she earns the distrust of her husband. From the chaos that has been precipitated by the wife's foolish action three shapes shape a new condition in their life. Frances is taught an awful lesson. The curtain shows a woman transformed. Folded in the arms of her forgiving husband she sees the prospect of real happiness for them both. You will never forget the bedroom scene, when the husband, discovering that his wife has borrowed $20,000 from a man of doubtful reputation, and believing him to be her lover, force the husband to begin to弱智 and call her supposed lover on the telephone inviting him to come at once to her boudoir, where the husband is in hiding behind a curtain. This scene is the strongest single scene ever presented in stage and will hold you in rapt attention. In this tense, gripping drama, spiced with laughs, will be seen to good advantage Mr. Bishop and Miss Desmond supported by the present capable comedian, Mr. Howay, at the Avonon including Mr. Moore, Mr. Pryor, Mr. Ray, Mr. Criner, Mr. Monagas, Mr. Cregg, Mr. Cooke, Mrs. Williams, Miss Jackson and Miss Carr.

Arch Williams, candidate for committeeman, who is responsible for the distribution of $30,000 annually in positions to our group, is in itself an evidence of his favorable consideration of our people if elected on Tuesday, April 13. To the "Levy Boosters"—Tell the people the truth, let them have the facts. How can you men and women of our group find the face to ask our support when in all the eight years of his occupancy of the position of committeeman he has awarded us by the appointment of one man, Samuels? And that within the past two years, Eight years and one job. Can you beat it? Don't attempt to fool your neighbors. It is not fair. How can the face of the past evidence expect anything to the effect of this man. Now let us take a look at Bither's record. What representation have we for supporting him? Let us consider facts, cold-blooded, concrete facts. With one exception, that of the second ward, the third ward has the largest Colored vote in the city, in fact the balance of power. For the sake of emphasis, we repeat the third ward has the second largest Race vote in the city. Mayor Thompson has on many occasions publicly announced that to the solid support of our group he owes his election. A plain statement of fact, isn't it? What have we in the third ward to show for this splendid effort? Why the mayor owes us the wonderful salve artist, William Bither. What has Bither so generously political and profitable ascendance? He claims credit for the appointment to the lofty (2) position of switchboard operator, a highly educated, cultured and refined Race woman, whose activities in his behalf have been unceasing. Do you know that such a position is ordinarily given to 16 and 17 THE EAST INDIA HAIR GROWER WILL PROMOTE A FULL Growth of Hair; WILL ALSO RESTORE THE STRENGTH, VITALITY AND THE BEAUTY OF THE HAIR If Your Hair Is Dry and Wiry Try East India Hair Crower If you are bothered with falling Hair Dandruff, Hair Sealth, or any Hair Trouble, we want you to try a jar of East India Hair Crower.

Ed Wright Meddles Now our friends of the second ward, Carey, Wright, DoPriest and others, more shune to them, are coming into our ward advising us simultaneously the same things for which they themselves fought for so many years in their own ward—adequate reward and representation. Bither has been Mr. Thompson's representative for four years, and we the "Goats" and "Bag Holders" are told to support him because "He is the mayor's friend." Is that sufficient cause for our continued support? We think not after his repeated failures in our behalf. Who is C. Arch Williams, candidate number three? First of all he is regular Republican, 365 days in the year, hailing from a long line of ancestors noted for their loyal Americanism and Republicanism. His grandfather fought in the Mexican War, his father served four years with the Union Army in the Civil War, fighting for our freedom. So you see he is 100 per cent American. Born in Bryan, in the state of Ohio, he received his early school training in his home town, studied law at Lake Forest University, afterwards teach- ing in the same institution; served as Master in Chancery ten years and is now chief attorney for the Sanitary District. An honorable man with an honorable record, clean in private life, clean in politics. But what has he done for US? He represents an organization which is responsible for the appointment of 18 Race men and women to responsible positions, not one of which pays less than $125 monthly, from that to $175.

There are several diseases which are c Rheumatism, Gout, Sciatica, Chronic Eczema troubles. No permanent relief can be expected those poisons responsible for the disease. One of the best known blood purifiers thousands—is the treatment which was long Prescription C-22 Blood purifier is rather a hazy expression, for anything that corrects digestion and relieves constipation can be said to be a blood purifier. But a treatment designed to restore the vital organs to their natural state and regulate the liver and bowels is a blood purifier in every sense of the meaning of the term. Your blood is made up of the food you eat, the water you drink and the air you breathe, but even when the purest and best of these essentials to life are used, the blood may become poisoned from other causes. There are several diseases which are caused by poisons in the blood, known as Rheumatism, Gout, Sciatica, Chronic Eczema, Chronic Catarrh, Scrofula, and similar troubles. No permanent relief can be expected until the blood has been cleansed of those poisons responsible for the disease. One of the best known blood purifiers—one that is giving satisfactory relief to thousands—is the treatment which was long used by a successful physician. This treatment was never intended to be sold ready prepared, because the physician—a specialist—formulated the prescription for those who came to him for relief from those diseases caused by poisoned blood. So great was the success of the prescription that the owner and originator, upon retiring from active practice, permitted its manufacture and sale in convenient packages ready for use. When, therefore, you buy a bottle of Prescription C-2223 and use it as a blood purifier for Rheumatism, Sciatica, Gout, Chronic Catarrh, Chronic Eczema, Scrofula and similar diseases, you get the benefit and the experience of a specialist and a time-tested medicinal preparation for less than the prescription would cost you if compounded by a pharmacist.

RIFAS & FOX, PROPRIETORS . 315-317 EAST 35TH STREET 6ATURDAY, APRIL 3, 1920 LIVE S BASE BALL, BO SUCCESS OF IS UP Will the Many Hardships Be Acknow AT THE TURNSTILE? By Dave Wyatt If as recent as two seasons ago a fan ventured to say that Bill Francis, Whitworth, Hill and Oscar Charleston went on their clubs without a vast protest on the field of fans, he would have been recommended to the madhouse. Yet in this brief period the American Giants' greatest one of their most wonderful infielders, outfielder have passed on to other fields of endover. Salvos of indignation may be fired at your uncle "Rube," no doubt he justified his stand. Post-winter the good of the game than all the managers together, who at present constitute the personnel of owners and all those who may come. During the winter the good of the team headed a club the Chicago manager has been the chief benefactor to a few hundred players and promoters who have basked in the sunshine of baserunning times. He has been with player and owners alike, as well as the fans. Congenial and Considerate Foster broke up one of the greatest playing teams that baseball is planted upon a firm basis in Detroit. And sighting the necessity of organization, he decided to adhere to the rules of the game of sacrifice. When the idea of a foundation for a Colored baseball league was conceived its sponsors at once heartened to the populist demand for a league that played strength as was possible. It was seen that success could only be attained by the distribution of players to the league at least acquire one, two or three players of such established prestige that it would at once arouse the interest to a point where there, could be no possible doubt of a complete evolution of antiquated ideas into a full realization of modern methods of baseball governance. Vesittitudes and Operation Foster has been the rock against which many a wave of adversity has been thrown. He worked without the storm of decier criticism; he has sailed smoothly over the GIANTS MOBILIZING That American Giants will be the club that National League clubs will have to beat this season to win championships, is the opinion of all the wise heads of the different clubs. The club Foster will present to the fans shows all the class of all former clubs, for the first time this year, the players sure to be retained and who are here published, are Dixon and Brown, catchers, best in the business; Grant, 1st; Demoss, 2nd; Bobbie Williams, s. s.; Malcherer, 3rd, the greatest infield in history of Giants. The outer gardeners are Rose, Torrent, Gans and Chalney White. The pitchers are Tom Williams, Tom Johnson and Dave Brown. Of the newcomers, Orville Riggins, a speed marvel, Jack Marshall, James Edwards, O. Singer, these players have the class to make any club and will be kept on the Giants payroll, even without these players the Giants could beat any ball club, yet the preparedness for the future warrants such players being hired. With the departure of several of the Giant heidliners, Rube said he had no fear of the future of the Giants, that their superior instyle play will tide them over. But going back, going he hard, yet ultimate success is sure. It will be a great season, and when the fans see the club they will marvel at the fastest club in the world. The fans are invited Sunday to take a peep at the many strange stars that will represent them. They will practice from 1 to 3 Sunday. Also orders for season boxes will be taken. Those boxes will have to renew the reservation. Baseball Season Opens THIS SUNDAY, APRIL 4th CAPITAL GITY GIANTS Washington, D. C. VS. JEFF TESREAU'S BEARS AT DYCKMAN OVAL 207TH ST. & BROADWAY. Watch for Brass Band. Admission 50c —STRAIC many obstacles that the combined power of his adversaries had placed his path. For the season of 1320 he is fond of the organization of a life's dream. But his hopes are not fully realized. True, all of his former foes are gleefully陷ed under his baseball banner. But what is more important, unto the call of organization, and with the high cost of operation, as well as the high cost of existence, will they be able to turn the turnstile lubricating and shining? The American Giants' park is operated upon a basis that makes it easier different from any similar field in the league. The high cost will equal, if not surpass, many of the high class minor league plants. Production in baseball has reached such a high level that many of other leagues are cutting off the bleacher accommodations altogether, while those who retain a few seats in the sun sections are negotiating an anse in admission of former seasons. Baseball paraphernalia, salaries and incidentals necessary to operation have about doubled in cost in the past few years, and sleeping accommodations, are extremely menacing to an owner's pocketbook. Therefore, it would appear that in those cases where conditions warrant it, where a locum lorem is required and elaborate plans for the accommodation of the fans are in the making, if the new venture in baseball is successful, the price of admission must be met by the public; for with the clubs playing to crowded stands on one day of the week and to practically empty seats of the league operation cannot be met with any amount of satisfaction to the owners. No doubt, whatever exists in baseball, the good, fast, clean baseball, and if they can operate with the men who are making such things possible, they will soon be in a position to allow the fact of admission as the promoters deem just and fair and their acquiescence in that respect will go a long way in the forge of cities that are to form the Negro National Baseball League.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER DEMPSEY-CARPENTIER AND HARRY WILLS THAT'S THE PROGRAM OF THE PUBLISITIVE WORLD By Juli Jones Jr. Corbett got the call rightfully. First a native son; secondly, young and popular. There’s no end of trouble when one calls a real Irishman a quitter. A careful note of champions in America, with the exception of John Morrissey, the world champion, no matter how popular. They asked for the scalp of the mighty John L. the greatest of his day, and moral and physical power, created a world-wide furore, but soon the public tired of him. One reason, because he press condemned him so closely that he made the mistake of his life taking on Bob Fitzsimmons, a very down-done Corbett. On the Irish rule March 17, Jim was knocked down and out and disgraced by a middleweight. Here he met the star of stars, the winner of the Open, his Open declaration—open doors to all, color, race or size. First come, first serve. This alone made him a champion. It came to Peter Jackson. He made his statement long before he won the crown and very good reason—he did not chance a chance in a thousand to beat him. Next installment will be the passing of offries and the coming of Jack Johnson. A. B. C.'S OFF FOR 'BAM C. 1.

WHITWORTH GOES Richard Whitworth, pitching ace of the American Giants, said good-bye to his many Chicago friends last Sunday, where he will play the commissary as a member of the Detroit Stars. There is no denying the fact that Whitworth is today one of the greatest players in the game, but he met and defeated all of his clock rivals races, beating such twirlers as Cyclone Williams, Cannon Ball Redding, Padron, Cockrel, Tom Williams and other players of type. When Kube Foster landed the ball, his transportation it was plainly evident that the latter realized what a loss to his team was taking place, but in his usual good natured way said: "That you have even better success in Detroit than you have had with me." Whit, as we call him, was idolized by the fans and it is a certainty that when he will be given here this summer he will be given a royal welcome by his legion of friends. PATTERSON WINS Springfield, Ill., March 31.—On points of cleverness and on the fact that he carried the battle all the way, landed on the opponent and outlasting him in ring.

The Brooklyn A. C. team, which not see anything to their advantage in playing another game on account of Spartan's attitude. However, in a recent letter from a prominent member of the team, the question is asked, "What particular good or purpose would a game between St. C. and B. A. C. serve now?" Under condition, Spartan is holding out a technical challenge in games won, and St. C. is willing to play B. A. C. and should they lose—from the Defender's point of view the team is St. C. is now. Another point view taken by the writer: Is there any public demand for the game? It is admired the season is rather late, perhaps the season of baseball or basketball ball, but let a game be decided upon, and there is little doubt but that one of the large crowds of the season would turn, especially for a championship affair.

Lelia Hubbard Question—Will you please tell me how I can dry shampoo my hair, as I have such a cold I cannot have wet one? How can I have an egg shampoo?—S. A. Answer—First spray alcohol on the head, use towel absorb, next silt ohrs root into hair, brush out with soft brush, taking small portions of hair at a time. For an egg shampoo use two whole eggs, beat thoroughly, apply to scalp, massage thoroughly, then rinse hair. Egg shampoo feeds scalp, gives luster and softens the hair. Question—How do you singe hair, and what benefit may be derived therefrom? Answer—Hair should be singed once a month. Singeing is for split ends and oily hair. Take a small portion of the hair and twist tightly. Use dripless tapers and be careful not to burn one's hair. It is best to have an experienced person show you. That's Many a Woman's Complaint It'S Work All Day Without Rest. Sometimes the Feet Swell and Ache-or the Head Aches. It's all due to an over-abundance of that poison called uric acid. The kidneys are not able to get rid of it. Such conditions you can readily overcome, and prolong life by taking the advice of Dr. Pierce, which is avoid too much-meat, or tea. Drink plenty of pure water, preferably hot water, before meals and drive the uric acid out of the system by taking "Anuric." These antiuric-acid tablets can be obtained at almost any drug store, in tablet form, and will dissolve uric acid as hot water dissolves sugar. small and often overlooked courtesies of life which he purgeys so unconsciously and gratuitously. His years of devotion to his little mother in all probability gave him that touch of humanity which is so often thrust out of the life of selfish and grasping ambitionists. Particularly did this virtue shine through his interpretation of the C minor Nocturne by Chopin, while the Debussy and MacDowell numbers revealed the more poetic side of his nature. It was his annual musical message to friends, old and new. Mrs. Willa Sloan, a comely attribute to a program, and altogether too little seen and heard, gave a charming revelation of Massenet's "Then Weep" in English to the delight of the audience and in a clear soprano voice which has broadened perceptibly in the lower register since she was heard last. Her encore number however was the greatest attraction, as she took a high note planissimo and called forth a storm of applause. In this particular type of vocal transition Mrs. Sloan has no peer and to include several songs of this style in her group would not be amiss. Miss Estella Bonds, who is, as all accompanists should be, a thorough pianist, gave admirable and satisfying support to the singer. Mme. E. Azalia Hackley, after an illness extending over a period of several months, has recovered enough to resume her musical activities and gave a folk song festival at Okmulgee, Okla., March 16 to a large audience. T. Theo, Taylor, pianist, and George L. Johnson, tenor, are booked solid from April 1 to the middle of May including New Jersey, Washington, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia. * Easter Morning Music Fulton Street M.

Her mother, Mrs. Saddle Cole, was of the widely known Chandler family and herself a beautiful singer; a woman of great refinement, high ideals and Christian character. Her grandmother was the possessor of a high voice and a member of the first Colored choir in Cincinnati. ```markdown ``` Mme. Talbert's first voice teacher was Gloria Mayne Windsor, after which she attended the College of Windsor, after Mme. Talbert which she attended the College of Music at the University of Southern California, where she specialized in oratorio with Mrs. Rockhold-Robbins During her graduating year she received a call to the Midland Concert Company on account of the sudden illness of their soprano. Thus the great career of this young woman began. While with this company she met her husband, Wendell P. Talbert, son of the late Rev. Horace Talbert of Wilberforce University, a graduate of that institution and an accomplished student at Oberlin. She then later severed her connections with the company and entered the Chicago Musical College where she won the diamond medal in the annual competition with high voice students. She has a high soprano voice of rare quality and has appeared in every large city in this country. A beautiful asset to Theo. Taylor's musical career is his balanced standard, musical and personal, which serves to surround him with warm friends, who make his annual recitals intimate affairs rather bordering on chamber music atmosphere, so replete are they with musical refinement and understanding. On Monday evening at Grace Presbyterian Church he repeated his successes of past years and obviously displayed a new depth of feeling that comes only with absolute music relationship. Probably the one thing that has so lifted him in the esteem of every one is his self abnegation which extends even beyond musical confines and reaches to the Every day we see faces that would be beautiful but for some skin blemish, however slight. No matter how perfect the features, how attractively she is gowned, a woman cannot be considered beautiful whose complexion is marred by even the tiniest pimple, black-heads or a dark, sallow, faded, muddy skin. Those not endowed by nature with a clear smooth complexion, or who thru neglect have allowed their skin to lose its freshness, can regain that youthful rose-leaf tint so much desired, by the use of two simple and safe toilet preparations, known as, the BLACK and WHITE Beauty Treatment. 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. NOTES EAUTY reach its height in woman. "To Eve was given two-thirds of all beauty," so the Mahometans say. Artists try to portray her, the poet makes verse in describing the beauty of her. A beautiful woman is a practical poet, planting tenderness and eloquence in all whom she approaches.

PAGE TWELVE Ald. Jackson Pleads for the Underpaid Employees At the special meeting of the city council Alderman Jackson of the Second ward spoke as follows: The Mayor, Peter Gentleman of the City Council. Peter must give one hour we have been discussing the budget and the conditions of the budget, and no reference whatever has been made to it. "I simply feel this way about it: We read in the papers of a meeting of the clerks being held in reference to their cause, and might well agree with it. We have a degree, public slaves. You take the clerks in the departments of the city hall earning $100 a month or $110 a month, and might well live on that salary, especially if he is a married man. You take those young fellows, they are all $125 a month, you only drive those men into the Morris Plan bank: you drive them into the pawnbroker's shop to borrow in order to make money. $3.35 a month, when he goes to the butcher shop on Saturday nights, and pays his rent every month, he is in bad financiality. He have gone in the service of the city. "Now, in the language of the street, there is but one thing to do this morning: table and let everybody have a hearing. Do not send the budget back to the council, simply sending a bucket back to an empty well. They have performed their service well, they have done all that they wanted to do, things to do is for the council to take up the budget this morning and see if the council amended and we cannot then find the money we can come in here and reconsider this matter and do the best we can. By all means these employees should be given consideration. They are entitled to it and they must have it in writing. If they do it here, do it now." (Applause.) Ald. Jackson Scorea Again Frank C. Long, 3400 Forest avenue, attached to the volunteer community service of the health department in the city of Jackson. He was a commendation of Ald.

Bither, residing at 4400 Wilmington, NC, was a organization candidate for third ward man, whose picture is printed herewild, has been accused of third ward for 39 years last past. During that time he was active practice of law, is well known in the legal prosecution, he received an enviable reputation throughout the country, ago by his victory in the case of the City Company, where man, whose picture was printed herewith, has been a resident of the third ward for 28 years last past. During that past, he has been in the active practice of law, is well known in the legal profession, and proceived an envi- able reputation throughout the city two years ago by his victory in the case of the City Cleveland Park Company where Kirk Company was claiming $2,000,000 for their soap factory and was offered $433,000 by the City in settlement but refused it. They finally received $433,000. Erse From Scandals Mayor Thomas Scanlan appointed Mr Bither as attorney for Board of Education last May. Since he has been appointed, for the first time in the last 20 years, there have been no scandals worey battles in the Board of Education and in the children of the City of Chicago are receiving the benefits of a public school education without the intervention of political bickerlings and dissensions. A Real Friend For the last five years Mr. Bithier has been the Thompson representative in the third ward and during that time he grown himself and a friend of the town and especially of the Colored race in his ward. During the recent Race riots Mr. Bithier came back to Chicago from his vacation, went into the third ward and for the first time he was in the cases of all the Colored people in his ward and in other wards. He was successful in every case he undertook, releasing 65 Colored men from the custody of the police and the management of a cent of costs and without any recompense to himself from any one. Mr. Bithier was instrumental in having the mayor send the militia into there and and from that time on there were two more persons or lawlessness on the south side. Flays State's Attorney Mr Bither is very much worked up over the bombing of homes in his ward. He lays the entire trouble to the aid of assistance to a coroner's office, prosecuting the criminals. He says if we had a state's attorney who would prosecute the bomb throwers as he prosecuted the bombing, he would have no further bombing; that a conviction, with a severe penalty, of one bomb thrower, would end forever the throwing of bombs in the ward. Mr Bither is advocating to all his constituents in the third ward that special attention be paid to the cannons in order to secure someone who will pledge himself to do all he can to apprehend and convict these bomb throwers. The members of the Colored race in the third ward should think twice before they refuse to vote for Mr. Bither. Mayor Thompson's candidate for third ward has been appointed to that has ever befriended them in the history of Chicago. If the Colored voters have the best interests of William A. Bither for third commissioner on April 13, 1930—Advert. Bethel Literary On last Monday evening Bethel Lifelong Academy is highly entertained by Hon. Bennett, H.

HEALY TO WIN Sentiment in the 30th Ward Strong for their performance as a Splendid Record Among the many candidates for ward committeeman none stands out in bold relief than Thomas J. Healy of the University of Chicago, a resident of this ward and an active participant in all of its social and business affairs. When Mayor Thompson campaigns one more to manage his campaign in his district, he choice fell upon Mr. Healy. How well he did his work is shown by the splendid vote given the mayor in this rocky district. He also managed the campaign of Alderman John Burns with signal success. Mr. Healy is the unanimous choice of the mayor, an organization of his ward and his fraternity bors are putting up a warm fight for him. In traveling through the ward one scarcely meets a member of who hasn't a good word for "Tom" Healy. Not only is he liked for his stance.

CIRCULATION DEPT. BUY A HOME We all know that when a person starts to purchase a home, that they are compelled to assume a great many costs, including the cost of their home they must make a thorough examination of the physical condition of the property. They must also have the lawyer look over all of the papers before they sign them and make their first payments. When they begin to buy a home, before they are confronted with the question of making repairs on the place, they also have to pay the cost of a good supply of fuel for the winter, decorate some of the rooms, collect the rent and attend to other things which they must chase a home. But notwithstanding the fact that all of these things may seem to make the purchase of a home more difficult, one fact we cannot deny. It makes no difference whether you are renting a home or buying a flat that costs us much to meet our payments when they become due. Moreover, the rents have been raised so much during the last two or three years that we must rent our flat to a docent in my opinion, as long as we have to pay the landlord from $50 to $55 on our first day of rent, so that rent money into the pockets of the landlord, it would be much better for us to pay the same amount of money, but we would not pay the penny that we spend to go toward the purchase of a home for ourselves.

NEGRO of the world in general and of America in particular fought in the war to secure a safe for democracy. It cannot be abducted as to whether "the powers that be" intended that Black Americans should sham in this much talked of war, so they have democracy. Universe has taken matters into His own hands. He has decided that the Negro in the South has suffered long enough to shalt have democracy the largest in the world. The Great Prime Minister of Heaven has forced prohibition in the United States, thus making the forcible slave trade a foreign duty, how may leaving America for the home He has restricted immigration, thus making it necessary for northern captains of industry to throw wide open a door to the slave trade. Surely there is a Just God. To western New York is crying for 200 single and 10,000 steady and reliable southern Race workers with the citizenship and will become permanent citizens and home owners.

LAND OF MAKE-BELIEVE The story books tell us there is such a place As the land of the Make-Bellove; Where things never are what they seem on their face But fashioned to simply deceive. So why waste the time to take trips in our dreams, for they are not worth the journey. When humbug and sham on all sides—so it seems— Do we find in Life's real story books. LABOR UNION MOVEMENT THE EVER RECURRING QUESTION of entering the labor unions is again being presented to our workers. Signs of renewed effort on the part of the leaders of the trades union movement are manifesting themselves in every place where our people are employed. There is no doubt but what a determined effort will be made in the future to enroll our workers in the ranks of organized labor. WHILE MANY OF US are already affiliated with the unions, the great mass are still outside the pale. The matter is of such transcendent importance that it cannot longer be ignored. With the coming to the North of many thousands our labor has become a very considerable factor in the industrial world. The situation is such as to be fraught with many evil possibilities unless properly handled. EVERYTHING POSSIBLE must be done to meet the situation in such a way that racial antagonism will be avoided. It would be unfortunate indeed if the conviction was forced upon the white workman that large employers of labor were using us to break the power of unionism. The fortunes of the laboring man, both black and white, are too closely interwoven to permit of any such condition. Whatever is good for one group is good for the others and everything should be done to bring the two forces together in agreement. IT HAS BEEN our wont in the past to look with suspicion upon all overtures from the leaders of the labor movement. We could not be convinced of the honesty of their motives. For this we were not to be greatly blamed, in the light of some past experiences. In a number of instances, notably those pertaining to hotels and restaurants, where our workmen left their places for better working conditions, they were supplanted by whites. And this, too, in the face of the fact that we had taken the step upon the advice of white labor leaders. THERE HAS BEEN a noticeable change, however, in the attitude of white workmen toward their Colored brothers. The far-seeing among them recognize that we are a factor too great to be longer ignored, and they are preparing to put forth a mighty effort to bring us to the point where we will see the advantages to be gained by an active alliance with the labor movement. Instances are pointed out where many of us who have found employment in factories and shops are receiving noticeably less compensation than white workers in the same line. A case in point is that of the mattress makers, where the difference in wages ranges from $5 to $10 per week. IT WOULD SEEM THE PART OF WISDOM, in view of the facts above stated, that we speedily address ourselves to this situation. It may not be generally known that much of the trouble that culminated in the race riots had its inspiration in the industrial situation, and unless something is done to bring about a more harmonious working arrangement in the labor field there will always be more or less racial friction. At any rate, the experiment of unionizing should be tried. No two races can live side by side in antagonism. The white man needs our help and we need his. In times of national distress we fight side by side in a common cause. In times of peace we must work side by side for a common cause and a common destiny. GETTING THEIR EYES OPEN NONE ARE SO BLIND as those who are very shock to awaken some people away of their own progress when the sense that is immaterial in life's grief is a discordant note in nature or a discordant note in situation. Man, perhaps just so, sets himself haunted in his flights by the hand of that thou go and no farther." D. Farners complains that it is next element that kept the labor much and of entering our ports thousands to toll for centuries has been confined by northern capital to that it that has been confined, cotton gins and mills are the seen signs of the depression. THE WORKERS of the depression have left the SO BLIND as those who will not see. It takes to awaken some people to the fact that they own their progress when they cater to a prejudice is immaterial in life's great schone. There are always nature abhors sameness, but the ability to choose the right harmony, harmony justly so, sets himself up as a great craft his flights by the hand of Providence that writes go and no farther." The journey throughout the count compulsion that it next in order to secure that kept the labor machinery in balance, bringing our ports thousands are leaving annually, centuries has been confined in the main to souls by northern capital to sock newer and greener gin and mills are limited in their output and ans of the depression. KEHERS who have left this section have been NONE ARE SO BLIND as those who will not see. It takes more than an ordinary shock to awaken some people to the fact that they are standing in the way of their own progress when they cater to a production based upon any difference that is immaterial in life's great scheme. There are no two things which are equally alike, nature abhors sinnesness, but somehow over thought u-discretion and now and then, harmony in the main precepts. Man, perhaps just so, suts himself up as the great earthly ruler and is only halted in his flights by the hand of Providence that writes on the wall, "so far shalt thou go and farther." INDUSTRIES of every description throughout the country are short of labor. Farmers complain that it is next to impossible to secure hands and the foreign element that kept the labor machinery in balance, is no longer a factor. instead of entering our ports thousands are leaving annually. The black man, whose name has been confined in the main to southern plantations, has been entiled by workers who never and greener fields, with the result that the South is in dire strata for help, large productive fields are abandoned, cotton gins and mills are limited in their output and on every hand can be seen signs of the depression. THE WORKERS who have left this section have been of the best; the drones and the shiftless and indolent type have remained in the South. The South would be lost without a problem so this nucleus is left them. The white drones will slowly, but surely. The burden that has been thorna for so many years and has been striven to extricate themselves, is being lifted, but do they relocate, or are they grateful? Not they; from their lips come the cry, give us back our black wives and perish. Nothing strange in this; the South is running true to form. When you take what they don't want they're angry, when you leave it they fuss. THE WORLD knows why the migration from this section was so large, why thousands are now leaving monthly. It knows the South, blinded by prejudice, too, just blinds the goose that had the golden eggs. There is a remedy and it is in it. We will they have the backbone to administer it and still continue to cut off those from the standpoint of climate we agree the South is an admirable place where we can something more than a bite to eat, a parcel of clothes and a security shelter. We figured out. Just give us human treatment in any section of this country and we will be worthiness to be classed as the one group worthy of the "hundred per cent." INCREASED PAY FOR CITY EMPLOYES THE CITY COUNCIL is having its troubles in trying to meet the demands of the employers for increased pay. The whole question seems to be one of how long should he do to help the fellow drawing the small salary. Under the law, living the man of small salary is finding it hard stepping to make ends meet. The council ought by some means find a way to lessen the strain for the men in the city. The reason why men, drawing a salary of $2,500.00 and upward should be chlamyne in the present financial condition of the city. To raise the pay of men in the series of six and seven thousand dollars seems a little posteratous at this time. IF IT BE TRUE, as it is claimed, that the payrolls are leaded with an army of sixty day apprentices for the purpose of building up a political machine, the law in justice to the taxpayers should use the pruning hook without fear or fave. The civil service employees should be protected. The civil service law should not be made a joke of. The addermust not forget that something is due the taxpayers, who are the real paymaster. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF SOURCES from which increased revenue there are be defended. We may not tax the many fruit and ice cream parlor controls in many instances, but not even citizens. What is to prevent the city from imposing a substantial license upon drug stores engaged in the liquor traffic? The saloons were compelled to pay a license of $1,000, while the drug stores are paying but a mere pittance. Many did in the heyday of their existence to say nothing of the saloons profilerizing. Surely in a city of the size of Chicago ways and menus can be found meeting the demands upon its pocketbook without resorting to the methods proposed by some of the councilmen for raising needed revenue. THE DAILY PRESS seems to be taking a back handed slap at the city administration. It will be remembered they took several slaps when Mayor Thompson was running for a second term; it will also be remembered that he came out victorious. Nuf sed. ALDERMAN LOUS B. ANDERSON made a ten-strike with the great arms of city employees when he engineered the deal to liberally increase their pay. We have to putting things beneficial to the masses you can always count on your "Uncle" Louis. A MODERATE ENFORCEMENT of prohibition can't mean anything but encuring prohibition on some people and not on others; which, to say the least, is very undemocratic. IF ALL OF US are ghosts, as Sir Oliver Lodge claims, we can understand why many people are afraid of themselves. GEORGE WASHINGTON didn't talk much, and in that respect as in a few others, he hasn't many initiators among the politicians of today.

Through PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES HYGIENICS AND SANITATION CLEAN UP WEEK--KEEP CLEAN A few days ago the following resolution was mailed to us as coming from the Tuskegee Annual Negro Conference: "The observance of National Negro Health Week was established er T.

Moton, in order to have the purpose of the resolu- carried out, has asked the hegyri-co- operation of all public-spirited citizens to make the 1930 Health Week observance, and good wishes says, "let us all join heartily together in the effort for health improvement." It is suggested that we do this year as we have done in previous years—appoint a clean-up committee of a range of members—ranging from the parson, of course. We hope that, this has already been arranged by every community and there may prevail a "surplus" of property, rivalry to see which shall have the cleanest, glimmer, the cleanest, backyard, the cleanest and prettiest. Front yard or plot, and the most sanitary basement, with all of the old shoes, old papers, ashes and other debris removed. That the said committee will see to it that all the pickets and boards be nailed on the backyard, fences, and that you give your bookyard fence a coat of paint or white wash, and that you take your "rake and rake your backyard, or move from it all broken bottles, empty-in-bottles, old cans, old bed spring, and other debris that have been put by covered over by the snow and ice of the winter, and get busy and prepare the soil to sow grass or flowers so that you may beautify your place of abode. Clean up the entire premises and keep it clean, not only during Health Week, but also during the week of the year. Do not overlook having your chimneys, doorways, and doorways such as the "cloth" big Ben, and do not forget to clean out your refrigerator and give it a good airing. Health Sunday. It has been suggested that April 4, be designated and known as "Health Sunday" and that sermons, be preached that Sunday on "Health" and direct them to keep clean. Of course, we know that April 4 this year is Easter Sunday and that a great many churches will not deviate, from the usual Easter services, as much good may be realized to preach to the people on hygiene and Levy Exposes Bither's Crude Political Tactics I listened to an unusual speech Sunday afternoon delivered by the mayor at 3556 State street, in the Masonnah hall, in interest of Mr. Hither. The tone of the speech indicated that Bob Hither was running run. Looking at it from a disinterested point of view and summing up the speech in his entree, it was an amusing and humorous statement not because Hither had done anything for the benefit of the people, but ruthlessly political dish with the same political dish with the mayor. The mayor said in one of his passionate appeals that if he were a Colonel of the Army, he would have colored man. April 13th coursing Loye badge he would smatch it. It is presumed that the great mayor of the city had taken the statement had he taken the second thought. He surely did not intend, to the chief ollocal of the city, to outwardly cause outwardly likely cause bloodshed. mayors Address a rattle he said, because he uses the mayor said, "Every vote for Levy is a vote against the constitution of the United States."

Three years ago I was, operated on and since then, have never felt entirely well, although I think the pictures of health. I would 225 pounds, nover did weigh that punch, before. Is my fat natural? I notice, that on my lips the fat, shakes just like jelly. My flesh is only around my lips, and must be very small, and feel, and face. Just below my eyes my legs often look as though they were swollen, seems forgetful worse when I stand any length of time. I suffer quite a good deal with my kidneys. Do you think that has anything to do with it? I do, often, have a first feeling. I suffer also with a roblick, sound in my left ear, just like water rushing favor, full or sea, a bad crying, or not the wind whirling on a stormy night. What causes these various sounds in my ear? Just a few days ago I noticed a knot came on my right thigh. In another day a dark place came—looked like pulsed blood, at the same time. I have never given birth to a child. Would-thank you to enjoy some information and advice now? Reply—I. Mrs. L. B., do not worry; your fat is natural. 2.

Matching this information against the statement made by him, the campaign is heart of a political campaign刺兵入城 and leaves it a more-shadow of campaign slander unworthy of emanating from so high a source. He attended the meeting, and heard the mayor's address expressed themselves as being out of harmony with the methods beaten by his opponent. His representative to enhance his campaign to understand why it is necessary for such a campaign of slander and abuse he made against Levy in order to be elected. During his four years as the mayor's representative in the ward, and accomplished anything for the people, he would be able to stand his own record as a public official. Mr. Bither in the course of his address said that he was not seeking political favors, but he wanted to make the Third ward a better place in which he live. He did not explain why he had been unable (though he was the mayor's representative) to give the people who live west of Indiana avenue better protection from the ruthless and brutal conduct of the police traveling out of the 48th street station. Nor did he clearly indicate his attitude on the bomb throwing in the Kenwood and Hyde Park districts. He did, however, charge the voters of the ward, especially those representing our group, with being a purchasable political commodity. Mr. Bither did not explain what caused him to gain favor with Alderman Schwartz, who is alleged to be the attorney of the Hyde Park and Kenwood Association, and who is an ardent supporter of Mr. Bither. Nor did he give any reasons why he (Bither) used his political influence to get Dr. Finn, the regular Republican candidate for Alderman, off of the ticket. In conversing with some of the people, they desire to know if the policies of Mr. Bither, in event of his election, will be shaped by Alderman Schwartz, who is known to be in sympathy with principles detrimental to our racial advancement. The desperate strides to which the Thompson candidate is being put in evidence by the methoda used in try-houses, and the people who secured places in which to meet meetings. I was informed that no later than last week, after a Lovy representative had engaged the Forrestal, the Lovy meeting was notified 24 hours thereafter that the assembly rooms could not be used and his money was refunded. Another instance of a church in which an attacker was to prevent a Lovy meeting which had been scheduled and arranged; in this instance, they failed. They succeeded, however, in the school, because of the attorney, who is the attorney for the school board. The failure of the Bither methods of campaigning has been observed and clearly indicates itself in the talk I gave to the audience throughout the ward. They say Bither's weakness is displayed by the self-confident fact that in order for him to get a hearing it must come through the Bither platform. This is further emphasized by the fact that when Bither stands alone there is not a corporal's guard to hear him. The voters show this weakness in having others to plan for and fight his battles, will he not be as weak in the discussion of principles wherein the interests of the electorate are considered? I find that there are many empty wagons rattling on Bither's political highway, whereas Levy is supported by the beat element and right thinking of the electorate, hence his election is assured. Adk
