N. CAROLINA FACES FIRE ONCE MORE
Citizens Become Ashamed of State; Ask Governor to Save "Poor Old Man"
By a Staff Correspondent
Raleigh, N. C., March 17.—From Matthew Bullock to Wright Rouse is only a slight change of sentiment in North Carolina's leading citizens—something like graduating from humor to pathos.
Two weeks ago the city leaders in North Carolina rised to rise as one and demanded that the refugee in Canada be brought here, where, in all probability, he would have been lynched.
Today these same leaders have poured an avalanche of letters in protest. Morrison, pleading that he use his executive privilege and save from the electric chair old, decrept Wright House, convicted of the murder of Will Whitley and sentenced to die by electrocution March
Bickett's Friends
These white people are said to be pleading with Morrison to save what little self-respect the toterting community has lost. Some of them are friends of the late ex-Governor Blickett, one of the squarest the state ever had. Others are of a class who detest Bulloch and the say, just hate to see "the old nigger" killed. On several occasions Governor Morrison has refused to listen to petitions in behalf of the man, claiming an equality of injustice, rather than equality of justice.
This opinion was born of the fact that the white instigators of the crime of which House was accused, in unjust imprisonments, Rouse is held to be a sort of "conjure" doctor, a "warr man," and, until the time of the crime, was regarded as foolishminded. Sarah Kearns and Tom Hays, her sweetheart, contrived to have old Whitley murdered. They are the ones who made use of the old "conjure" doctor. At the trial in Snowden's case, the found House guilty enough to go to the electric chair and gave the white man and woman a second-degree verdict.
Morrison believes that all three men sent to sent to the chair that it was sent to let any of them off, and that if commutation of sentence were granted to Rouse it would only be equalizing what he believes to have an original mis-
The most powerful appeal in behalf of the condemned man has come from the commonwealth's attorney who prosecuted the three defendants. He admitted the probable miscarriage of justice in the jury's verdict against the condemned man. Heart, heart, heart, the would not and cannot suggest the idea of seeing the mentally deficient man suffer more than his white associates.
Say: He isn't Guilty
It is even contended in some quarters that Rouse did not commit the crime. Evidence has been adduced to show that Mrs. Whitley and Hays only used Rouse as a foll, killing the husband some time ago. Rouse is now Rouse around. Rouse declares that the man was dead when he came up.
North Carolina has a splendid chance to vindicate herself with mercy shown to this old man. Members of both races say so. During the 1980s, the office of Bledkei, matters have continually grown worse in the matter of race relations. The spotlight was thrown on the state in the instance of the Bullock case, at which time the commonwealth played a major role in time when North Carolina could boast of being reasonably free from hunching. That time has passed. A new order of Race persecution and injustice has made itself felt, and, in the case of House, has seemed to obtain official sanction. "White supremacy" want the governor to do something "to save the little self-respect of the white people of the commonwealth."
Much speculation is rife along the Stroll as to just what is the truth about the trouble that occurred in front of 2932 State street. George Parker, a former officer charged by Officer John Gaskins, charged with shooting John Parham, 38 years old, as he was about to enter his home at 2932 State street. Parham, who is blind, claims that it was a stray shot which caused the death of Officer Parker, 44. Parham's real street, was carried to the Provident hospital, where it required 15 stitches to be taken in a cut on the back of her neck which was inflicted by some one known as Willie May. Parker told Officer Parker that Oddie had just taken the gun away from some one to prevent a trafec

Cuts Off Dead Woman's Finger To Steal Ring
Washington, D. C. March 17—"Staing pennies off the eyes of a dead man" is such an old accusation that it is proverbial, trite and shopworn. Clyde Harris, formerly an orderly at Emergency hospital, had a contempt for this "old timer, small town pilking," consequently, when Mrs. Fred D. Shepard died of pneumonia, this orderly, with disorderly ideas on his scale, scaled the remains from a diamond ring valued at $150, mutilating the finger of the deceased in his operations. Of this there is a certainty, since Assistant District Attorney Presmont was able, not the police, to murder juries—despite the fact that the convicted man claimed he found the ring in a pile of trash near the room occupied by the dead woman. The crime been remanded pending a sentence on conviction of grand larceny.

Finds Wife In Arms of Man; Kills
Okulmgele, Okla., March 17.—Two men and a woman. The three points of the eternal triangle. Baleful influences set in motion by the converging lines leading from these three. A shotgun. And when the smoke had cleared away it was the woman, in jail charged with the Ruby Jackson, and one of the men, Napoleon. Ward, were dead, and the other man, Ned Jackson, husband, of the woman, was in jail charged with the Ruby Jackson, and one of the men, Napoleon and his wife were living happily together. Owing to the economic depression Ned was thrown out of employment. Things began to change when he determined to try his luck in some other town. He picked the neighborly city of Muskegon. He took leave of Ruby, promising that upon his return he would be caught and sent on his quest for money, he became associated with a party of moonshiners, and in a raid by the officers on their plant he was caught and sent along nicely. The couple seemed to have forgotten that such a man as Ned Jackson had ever existed. In due course the woman was taken away along nicely. The couple seemed to have forgotten that such a man as Ned Jackson had ever existed. In due course the woman was taken away part of Napoleon's lower jaw. Jackson was so enraged that he reloaded the gun and fired another charge at both, each with a gun. He walked calmly to the sheriff's office and gave himself up.

SAY BETHEL OPERA CASH IS MISSING
Church Raises $11,000; Only Few Pennies in Bank; Fires Treasurer
Following an audit of the books of Bethel A. M. E. church, 30th and Dearborn streets, by an auditing committee composed of Dr. A. J. Offord, chairman; James A. Reed, secretary; Dr. M. D. Miliard and G. W. Davidson, a shortage of $2,046.32 was discovered and R. A. Jackson, 5308 trustee board, was called to account. Jackson is one of the oldest members of Bethel and for more than nine years has handled the funds of the church, which has past 11 months, according to the huddles of the committee, a total of $11,567.56 has passed through his hands. The treasury has been the amounts of money raised from time to time the board found it difficult to meet the expenses of the church. The treasury was in a depleted position and is alleged, and padded bills from unexpected sources were often placed before the board for payment.
Rally Funds Missing
But the present board is a new one. It is composed wholly of young men with progressive ideas. Jackson and his colleagues of his having served on all previous boards as treasurer he was elected to this office on the new board, the first of his three years of his integrity. Because of their confidence in him they did not insist on him being under a bond. He had lost a considerable portion of $1,200 rally money raised last July, and the proceeds from Prof. Mundy's grand opera recently given for the benefit of the university and alleged to have mysteriously disappeared.
Suspicious Aroused
But suspicions were aroused over the treasurer's method of handling the church's funds in 1921, and because of various discrepancies the board ordered Jackson three weeks ago, of age 60, to give newspapers, etc., that had a bearing on Bethel's financial status. When the shortage was laid before him at a board meeting Wednesday night Jackson denied taking any money he was brought to the attention of the members at a church meeting Thursday night. The board was then given authority to take whatever steps it saw against the boardwriter. The new board gives out the statement that its policy is to be open and clean, exposing all crookedness. It has established a rigid system of record keeping and does not intentionally work as its procedors are alleged to have done. R. H. McGavock, under a bond of $2,000, is the present treasurer. It was learned that the church had one few pennies to its credit at its regular bank and its account was closed.

Pastors Agree ToCutSermons To Hour Limit
Atlanta, Ga., March 17—The A. M. E. Ministers' Union decided a short time ago to limit their funeral sermons to one hour. Undertaker David H. Howard appeared before the union and called attention to the fact that funeral sermons had been taking an extraordinary length of time and that the union had been giving five hours. Howard's unusual statement was backed up by the Rev. R. H. Ward of Allen Temple church. He is reported to have said that more than half of the sermons were more than three hours the dead than in preaching to their flocks.
A comparison was made in the course of the debate of the value of the time spent in attending funerals, and in putting in in hard work. One speaker, himself a minister, asserted that a man could earn money in the funerary services and in hour funeral services to support two-thirds of the schools of the city. Most of the ministerial brethren seemed to favor the proposal and unanimously voted to their sermons hereafter to one hour.
Washington School Fuss Is Quieted
Washington School Fuss Is Quieted
Washington, D. C., March 17.—Citizens here feel that the Colored section of the Washington public schools has just passed through one of the most acute crises in its existence; and they feel also that the move in behalf of the Race's rights in education here are also outspoken in their praise of the yocman district commissioners for the establishment of liberal provisions for our section of the educational system here, about 27 per cent of the whole Bedford area, which has been finished by the House, however, they had been reduced to about 14 per cent, and when the Senate had divided to about 7 per cent, they had divulged
When this became patent to the citizenry they immediately became alarmed. Efforts were made by some teacher, but they were informed that that body had closed its hearings and the decision was final. Matters seemed desperate, but under the guidance of Dr. J. R. A. Crosland, some leading legislators were reached and the case was reopened. Martin B. Madden, chairman of the House apportionment, said that there were an injustice, and he assured leading senators that any reinstated items looking to the equalizing of things for our Race would be removed and would be retained in conference, Senators Philps, Jones, Spencer and McKinley sat in the group that heard the reopened case. Col. Johnson presented Garnet C. Williams assistant to the Armstrong high school, and he in turn presented facts and figures which convinced the senatorial group.
As a result the following specialist training school, $100,000; for the purchase of land adjoining the Dunbar high school, $100,000; for the beginning of an addition to be created at the Armstrong manual training school, $100,000; for the purchase of land adjoining the Dunbar high school, $100,000; for the beginning of an Armstrong manual training school, $50,000; for the erection of an eighthroom addition to the Lovejoy school, including additional land, $140,000; room addition to the Phillips school, including addition land, $140,000.
Columbus, N. M., March 17.—A regimental review was tendered Master Sergeant George W. Winston and First Sergeant Eugene Harris by members of the 24th United States Army Rommel Army in addition of the splendid service rendered the organization by these two noncommissioned officers.
Sergeant Winston had been with the organization continuously for over twenty years, except for a period in the war as a captain during the World war.
The regiment lost, by retirement, First Sergeant Felix Buggs, who had put in 23 years in the service, with seven years double time.
Sergeant P. P. passed by order of Col. Schoolol and that these three noncommissioned officers served honorably, faithfully and loyalty both as officers and enlisted men and the records of each was one of which any man would be justly proud.
ORGANIZE DOUGLASS LEAGUE
Trenton, N. J., March 17.—The Douglass League with T. Thomas Fortune as president, has been organized in this city. The objects of the league are to keep alive the memory and services of Frederick Douglass and to concern itself with the social, civic and economic interests of the Race.
CLAIM RUSE DEFEATED CHAMPION
Discrimination Snags Nine Year-Old Head Speller in Detroit Schools
Detroit, Mich., March 17. — Are Southern methods of repression creeping into the North to prevent Race men in competition with white people from securing even-handed justice?
This question is thrust to the front by the experiences of George Nurse, admitted champion speller of the sixth grade in the Detroit public schools.
The Detroit News recently staged a series of spelling bees in the Detroit public schools, of which there are 158. Then these school champions competed to see who were the best grade spellers in the city.
George Nurse, the sixth grade champion, with the four other grade and high school champions, were left to contest for the honor of being champion of the city of Detroit.
Interest in Context
The Majestic theater was the scene of the final struggle. One by one the five grade champions dropped out for misspelling until there were left to spell correctly. With 9, and Justine Pearson, a bright child of Caucasian race of the eighth grade, aged 12. The word "peace" was given to Justine. She spelled it correctly and gave a third opportunity. She was given words from the grade speller. George was given high school words with several syllables, yet he continued to spell correctly and became most intense, as it was feared that a boy of 9 years would outspell all of the other students in the city schools of our great city.
**Discrimination "Appear."**
Finally, George began to word "Hawaii." He began with a capital "H," then he stopped and started over and forget to use the capital "H" when he started the second time, but spelled the word correctly, and then he stopped without being given three opportunities, or even two, to spell it correctly, as had formerly been done with Miss Pearsal, from all of which it appears he was the best speller in discrimination in favor of little Miss Pearsal and against the little boy, George Nurse, for had he been given three opportunities to correctly spell his name, he would have been spelling with her until now, as his principal, who was too ill to attend the final match, was confident that he was the best speller in the game, and spelled down. George is called the de facto champion of Detroit.
Students Stand High
There are, as previously stated, 158 champion spellers of their respective schools. Out of these champions 140 contested for the grade championships. Eight Race students won the championship, and the names or six of whom are as follows: George Nurall, Barstow school; Lucie Nutall, Duffield school; Claudia Brown, Capron school; William Robinson, George school; Robert Berry, Lyon school; Marjorie Pearce, Pitcher school; and the two others can not now available.
Catholics Draw Color Line
The family of the champion speller, George Nurse, are Catholic. When they came to Detroit they wanted to have George entered in one of the Catholic parochial schools they could not admit Colored students in any of the parochial schools they now had, but that they would soon have a Colored parochial school where he could attend. It was announced five or six years ago that the Catholics intended to have a Race Catholic school in connection with the St. Peter Claver Catholic church, but a campaign was issued to pull parochial schools out of business and compel all children of the city to attend the public schools between the ages of 7 and 16 years, or until they passed. The campaign is now being waged to amend the constitution of Michigan to this effect and will be voted upon in November. During the first campaign Michigan Catholics had Eugene McCormick and voters in this state in favor of the parochial schools despite their Jim Crow tendencies.

MRS. LUELLA J. SAUNDERS
Three years of married life came to a close last Friday when Mrs. Luella Johnson Saunders, 211 East 45th street, filed suit for divorce against her husband, Harvey B. Saunders, prominent druggist. She demands alimony.
Saunders, In Divorce, Gives Facts
Through her attorney, Frank W. Hoyt (white), Mrs. Lucella Johnson Saunders, 211 East 45th street, christopher, office in the 45th street building, filed suit or divorce from her husband, Harvey R. Saunders, prominent South Slide druggist. They have been married three years. Mr. Saunders has retained Attorney William L. Dawson over the petition, which charges cruelty.
In addition to allmany, Mrs. Saunders demands controlling interest in the two drug stores operated by her husband, 45th street and 50th street. State attorney questioned by a Defender reporter, Mrs. Saunders declined to make a statement, declaring that her petition set forth her grievances.
He then interviewed, discussed the affair fully. He declared that the charges of cruelty were unfounded and to him ridiculous.
There can be only one charge of cruelty proved against Mrs. Saunders, and then the author of that has no legal standing in court. It is a pet dog owned by my wife. This animal had endearled himself to her in such a manner that she wanted to be permitted to permit his presence and hurled him from the bed."
Mr. Saunders further asserted that his 70-year-old mother, Mrs. Sarah E. Saunders, and an adopted son, Mr. Sarah E., have been driven from his home by his wife.
"I tried every way to avoid unpleasantness, but a man's mother is dearest to his heart." he said, "and should have high consideration. I should have given up everything order that she may spend her last days peacefully."
Atlanta, Ga., March 17.—Seven persons were killed and nine injured when a passenger coach on the Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic railroad was derailed. Union City, co. was in trouble.

Klansmen Cut Capers Everywhere
Various activities of the Ku Klux Klan throughout the week consist of the following:
Atlanta, Ga.—A hearing has been begun on the petition of Henry B. Terrell and 400 others for a receivership for the Ku Klux Klan in the Superior Court before George L. Bell. The petitioners allege that the order is bankrupt and they were dropped from membership when they sought to investigate its affairs. Simmons charges that the petitioners have no property rights in the order.
**Whip Catholic Priest**
Slaton, Texas—A mob composed of men who protested that they were not klansmen took the Rev. J. G. Keller, Catholic priest, from his church, flogged him. After freeing him, they gave orders that he should leave town. The priest left.
**Give Church Money**
Taft, Calif.—Five automobile loads of Ku Klux Klaners drove up to the Baptist Tarchene of the Rev. Van Dyke Todd at Fellows, near here, during the regular service and created a scene by going to the altar of the church in their full regalia and depositing $25,000 men toil and deposit that they were and then departed. Only three men from the automobiles went to the altar.

MASKED MEN REVIVE HATE BY WHIPPING
Entire City Gets Scare When Smitherman Is Taken to Woods and Beaten
BY STAFF CORRESPONDENT
Tulsa, Okla. March 11.-Tulsa, the "city of riots," again takes the lead in the perpetuation of outrages. And, as is usual, the victim is a member of the Race. John H. Smitherman, a leading Democratic politician, was killed in a heavy armed white men, spirited out in the country, and there, flogged until he was unconscious, after which the inhuman fiends sliced off his left ear, ordered him to leave town, threatening him with instant death and drove him away and leaving him to seek medical assistance as he must be could.
Feared Power
According to reports, Smitherman had been instructing his friends and acquaintances in voting the Democratic ticket, and had been registering to vote in a transparent fact that in the coming elections, the Race would hold the balance of power in the community. This fact, identified the enemies of Smitherman, and any way clear to present-day determined to have their revenge upon the creator of the situation. Smitherman was in his room at the hotel when he was awakened about 2 a.m. by a vigorous knocking. To his inquiry, "Who is it?" the answer "Officers" was returned. This did not prevent Smitherman from for officers had numbers of times conferred with him on affairs pertaining to the district. He got up and opened the door, and to his great surprise, the door was open to two revolvers held in the hands of two determined looking whites.
Flash Badges
These men flashed badges and, stepping into the room, told Smitherman that he was wanted by the chief at police headquarters. His wife, a lawyer, the two men, he endeavored to explain to them that it would be easy to see the chief the next day, as he would still be in town. One of the men, menacing with his gun, cut him in half and get into your clothes." He was then forthwith forced to dress and in company with the two left the room. Down the stairs they went, a man on each side of him. At the foot of the stairs, he said, "You and I get into none of these four men was masked. In some way citizens learned of the kidding not long after, and, when upon inquiry at police headquarters, they found that the chief was not a man, but a lawyer, any officers to bring Smitherman in, they organized themselves into searching parties. Heavily armed they spread themselves in all directions, trying to locate the unfortunate man. They were successful. Gang after gang of searchers would come in reporting failure to ascertain anything at all as to his whereabouts. Groups of citizens congratulated and discussed the affair, they were heard and threats were made.
Smitherman Whipped
One of the men carried a blacksmake mule whip. This is what they used in taking turns to administer smithers' tools. He gave him from 40 to 50 lashes each. "You are a d — Democrat, and you've been registering 'niggers' as Democrats, haven't you? Smithers' father was a Democrat and that he had been instrumental in registering several as such. At this one of the assailants he whipped him for a solid half hour. When he was nearly unconscious they desisted and one understated fellow drew from his pocket a sharp knife to up to Smitherman cleanly sliced off his car. No arrest has been made.
"MANY PRESSING MATTERS"
BLOCK ANTI-LYNCH BILL
Boston, Mass. March 17—Determined steps are being taken by the National Equal Rights League to see that the United States senate, in the United States senate, shall not be allowed to die. Fearing that the measure would be treated indifferently, the corresponding secretary of state addressed a letter to the chairman of the senate judiciary committee, Senator Knute Nelson, including a prayers, an illness sufferer, and inquiries relatives to the present status of the measure.
Senator Nelson's reply stated that the bill had been put into the hands of the senate committee, of which Senator Borah, senate irreconcilable, was chairman, and Senator Overman of North Carolina, who is alleged to have watched the vote. Apology is given for this subcommittee's failure to act in view of the "many other pressing matters of long standing that have demanded attention."

FREE KICK IS ABOLISHED BY BODY ON RULES
Football Undergoes Greatest Change Since 1906—New Darkness Rule
IMPORTANT CHANGES
After touchdown, scoring team to try for one point by kick or run with the ball. In five yards from defenders' goal line. On shift plays, shifted players must complete enough atroces to lose momentum. Players in motion must be five yards from the rim of the image line when ball is put in play. At the start of the game, loser of the ball may advance off or receiving if winger scores goal. Ball to become automatically dead when it crosses goal line. Of captains may shorten last two periods after obtaining consent of captains. In the player's game in the half in which he was removed, but he may be substituted at half if removed in the first.
By FRANK A. YOUNG
The abolition of the free kick following a touchdown, substituting in the place thereof a play from the line of scrimmage on or back of the five-yard line of a defending eleven; clarifying the changes in the rules on shift plays, clipping from behind and other substitutions as well as other changes were announced Saturday in New York City by the Intercollegiate rules committee.
This is the biggest change in the great American game since 1906, when the forward pass was introduced. The action of the committee in scratching the free kick out of the kick formation sent them by the American Football Coaches' Association, which met in December.
The revision has been demanded by the majority of football experts for the abolition of the "pout out" two years ago many of the coaches have worked to have the free kick done away with all together. They have declared that the "pout out" was good and was harmless to the game.
There are still a number of coaches and close students of the game who believe that the one point scoring as it is now, with the rules revised, is not appropriate for a weaker team as weaker teams win games they are not entitled to win. Another phase of the rule that does not meet the approval for a forward attack is not allowed away with the individual shot who could boot field goals they have opened up an opportunity for another man who can successfully drop kick. One is an
Many Games Will Be Saved
Another rule that will surely meet favor with players and fans is the one that requires the referee to blow the ball when it is vined the ball has crashed the line. Heretofore clevens have lost chances for scoring by hard tackling on the part of the opposition when the ball is vined the ball. The new ruling does away with that uncertainty. The shift play has been one that has convinced the referee that the rule has been cleared up so that there can be no doubt on the part of the opponent that Clipping is no longer left "to the interpretation of the rule," but is made classified as "unnecessary roughness." The fortunes of the toss have been decided by the team chosen his goal, the opponent shall have the choice of kicking off or receiving the ball, and the opponent that won the toss decided which goal he would defend the opposing team against. By consulting both captains and when agreed both captains and when agreed can the quarters. This comes under the rule covering darkness, which is decided before the game started.
A player cannot leave the game and
get back into it. This will work a hardship, it is be-
loved, in cases where coaches would
look over a player's apparent injury.
A player must be, he in motion,

22. At no time game the game did either team get over a one point lead. It was a seasaw game, one full of thrills and one that kept the spectators on their feet during the entire play. Within forty-five seconds of the time for the game to end and with the Chicago hops leading by one point Rocky Anderson of Cincinnati sent the Ohio crowd into a frenzy when he shot a field goal. It was then that the Chicago Anderson pulled the game out of the fire.

FOSTER'S CREW ARE ON THEIR TRAINING TRIP
Left Chicago on Monday for Spring Practice in New Orleans and South
By MISTER FAN
The American Giants left Monday over the Illinois Central for the sunny South, where they will unloosen their muscles under the hot rays of Old Sol. preparatory to a series of games to be played in that city against the New Orleans Crescentes at the Crescent baseball park, which is owned by the leading business men of the Race in that city.
Those who bid farewell to the chilly March weather and boarded the rattler a few minutes before the conductor yelled "All a-ho-ard" were Tom Johnson, pitcher and overseer veteran; Big Whitworth, pitcher, pitcher of Darby, Pa., last season; Brown, pitching ace of the local club, and Ed Rile. Rile is predicted to break up the league this year with his delivery, but we got to see the team when we will stump our approval on him. Then came Dixon and Jim Brown, catchers; Hewitt and Holt, infielders with St. Louis last year, the greatest second baseman of all times, who has the party in tow until they reach Memphis, where Riley Foster will assume charge, Beckwith, who will be the first baseman and Jellyroh' Gardner, outfielders. Torrent, the center player, will join the squad upon reaching New Orleans. He will come over by the door, and the players on Stars, O'Nell, another crack pitcher, who is studying at Meharry Medical College, will join the club in Chicago after school closes. Green, a short-stretch recruit, will get a stint in troopers and ordered Marlarcher to quit playing ball on account of torn ligaments around the heart. It is a hard pill to swallow. He is a good ball player, but he does not chew, drink nor smoke. The Giants will arrive back in downtown April 15 and will open an event on Easter Sunday. For full details regarding outcome of games on Southern trip and concerning games during the summer watch these columns closely. The first game against the Crescent will be played Saturday afternoon.

IT'S ALL IN THE GAME
MIXED MATCHES
WHY. DO BOXING commissions bar mixed matches? That in itself is a huge question to answer. The players need to indulge themselves because they need to hide behind the color line. Claim matches don't draw. Well, how about in Boston? Ten thousand fight fans trying to get inside and the police and fire departments fighting them on the heels. How about the Green-Norfolk match in Pittsburgh? Selfish fight promoters are sewing the game on their backs, not his color. The public is sick of it. Fight commissions must recognize the black man as not fit to fight another black man he is fit to fight a white man, and if he is not fit to fight at all. Boxing commissioners are appointed. Politics. Politics has ruined lots of things. Maybe it will ruin boxing. When they cut us off the skifter—they'll cut us off anything.
COLOR MAKE A DIFFERENCE
CHICAGO UNIVERSITY is to hold a scholastic, basketball tournament, the Wendell Phillips High School kettleball quintet won the central division title in the Cook County High School League. They won against an opposing team, Lane Tech for the city title. Coach Sacks called up the officials at the university and asked to enter the an evasive answer. It was an invitation (2) affair, and Phillips was not to be invited. Lane, Austin and Sacks all right, but not Phillips. Phillips has a good team, all brown in color. The officials out at the university don't want to be in the game, carry off the teamship. The said university is accused of discouraging a Colored girl from taking up journalism. She didn't want to play in the school football team that canceled a game in Texas because the Texans refused to play against a Colored boy, or have enough Southerners and the Ku Klux Klan into power around the university to bring about this issue. Some white people are getting pretty darn "hilfatulin" these days.
GOOD-BY GIBBONS AND GREB
GOOD-BY TOM GIBBONS —
goodby to Harry Green. Fifteen rounds
at Madison Fence. Green Monday
was the day he lost the longer of Dempsey. Why? Simple

expected to win by a knockout. Fight

Gibbona. On the other hand, Greb
fought Kid Norfolk in Pittsburgh last
week. Greb lost to Norfolk. Greb
gave Greb the decision. Some gave
it to Norfolk. New York papers,

held Norfolk. Norfolk succeeded to Harry Willis

FOOTBALL RULE CHANGES
THE POWERS THAT BE have changed the football rules again. Just why they changed them the way they did is a puzzle to the show followers of the game. The Chicago Defender has advocated the abolishing of the goal kick after touchdown for the reason it does not show any decided utility in any of the team and oftimes causes a 7 to 6 win and the win does not go to the best team. It has a tendency to make coaches

develop individual players. The new change does not remedy this at all. We are of the opinion that the ball should be given to the other side after touchdown is made and put in play on the 20 or 25 yard line. We are still against the one point scoring after touchdown.
Another change that does not meet with our stamp of approval is the rule that says an injured player can not return to the game during the half in which he takes out. Before if a man showed any signs of injury the coaches have yanked him, and after looking him over have sent him back into the game the next quarter and in the last quarter sent him right back if player could continue the result of the change will work to a decided disadvantage to both coach and player. If a game is close and any star player should show a sign of injury in last half conches will have a tendency to let him stay as long as they can, knowing if he is put in it will play a second of the returning and players' loyal to their school will hide injuries to remain in the game. Wonder who caused the change to be made?
TOUGH LUCK
FLANK DEGAN, a white brownie, in the American Bowling Congress play at Toltec came within one pin which has been made only once during the annual meet of this association in 22 long years. Monday night, the 14th, he hung up a mark of 299 pins, and the 15th, he hung up a pin hit. Pin No. 7 and pin No. 4 swayed and swayed. The rest went down. Pin 7 finally toppled and pin 4 reached. It was decided not to win. On pin finished Degan's hard try. It was tough luck.

A MILD PANIC
How is Jack Kerners going to get out of having Jack Dempsey light Harry Willis? He and his friends have about shot all the loads out of their guns. He had the option.�, Rackel-belonging out the person purse A return match will poor Carpentier—everything possible. How can anyone get back back? Jack Dempsey is called the champion of all men in the world when he dodges or sidesteps one man who has proven beyond a doubt that he has been a man who has not said, and not sentiment. Will show that Willis should be a favorite over Dempsey should they meet. Kearns wants to be a small-middle-down gun man at Dempsey's and the meet. Wills That's all right if he can get it.
We have figured out a plan. If Jack Kerners really get back, our business can make over $600,000 and prove to the world he is a real sport. Let him stage the fight himself, give Harry Willis a dime and training a sense of control. He has a good time with the state of New Jersey and the government. It won't cost him one cent for publicity for press agents. Set the admission to the show on the other side, he will run away more money than Dempsey and Carpentier. A real game manager would make his chamberman a good time to the battle had to be staged in India.
That, heavy-hitting Damon Runyon came to the last one night last week for the same time, limited in the Atlantic ocean when he said that Harry Willis was the best man seen around here for many years. He has been a man of the same confidence to think soon that Dempsey will be been. There is another big town

New York, March 17.—The final bout at the weekly show of the 360th Infantry Friday night ended suddenly when Joe Boyken swung a right uppercut to the jaw of Battling Jones, formerly of Dayton, Ohio, for a clean knockout.

In the semi-final Ray Bennett was the winner of the second round because he saved him. Ware, who was forced to quit in the tenth round because of a sprained hand. The contest was more or less a "circus stunt" affair.

DANNY EDWARDS
Danny Edwards, the Lucific coast wonder, is living up to the advanced dogs of these "seasons," and the "Ladards" is the first little man from the Coast to make good since the days of Ate Alton. Californians sent them and sent them. Edwards looks like the best 118-pound boy in the East. He has taken the Best Edwards�s piled and three fights in New York and won two on points and one by a knuckout. He was sent to the Port of Bovins he's two on points and one by knockout. His last victory was over Aug. Fremont. The man who is the one who has been the man on whom the whole of Boston would have gone broke had he met Johnnie Bost Edwards, and piled on the "casualなの" in six weeks. To think of a man fighting the best men He was won three red buns and two in the next week something never heard of before. Edwards has picked up where Dixon has a chapter to do. He's a key to the style of fighting these days, but this for the "Little Chocolate," but all for the "Big Boards," he's a call for it. Bannie's second, the chairman's plan, hasn't knocked out a man in the last two years, yet he is the drawing card of the "Ladards," and he has had a day he had to be a knuckout and a man who is the public would say he was pulling. To say things are the same with that's enough—so go and win, Danny.

The Reese Automobile School is now in full session. Come in and prepare yourself for spring and summer positions. Calls are coming in almost daily for competent automobile men. No doubt you lost valuable time during the recent "labor crisis." Even with the scarcity of labor the chauffeur-mechanic succeeded in finding employment. The automobile profession is independent of all labor troubles and demands a good salary. Reese's graduates are often special consideration. Even if you are employed at present I am sure you have a few hours that could be devoted to learning an independent profession. School hours from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. All automobile owners and their wives should know how to drive their cars. For further information call Victory 4772, or write to: 26th Street—Advertisement.

for more than 55 years, the organization currently operated the days of the Knights of Liberty during the activities of John Brown and the underground mining company during that period rendered fleeing slaves out of the slave-holding states of the country of course, had it’s successes and its blemishes that activity it merged into new life after the memorable proclamation of the immortal Abraham Lincoln, the Rev. Moses Dickson, who had been active before that in this great movement for freedom, while activities through various phases of life from time to time he built and brought into operation the Knights of Liberty, which continued up until 1872, after which time the Knights of Liberty became known as the Knights of Liberty and Daughters of Tabor.
At this time the grand temple and tabernacle of the Knights and Daughters of Tabor was throughout the entire country. Working through this phase as an annual body at Mobile Ala., in 1857, just before the government practically placed the government of the order in each state under a chief grand mentor. Since that time, with a membership of Daughters of Tabor have gone forward to the welfare of our people, directing and organizing and teaching the students of Tabor the benefit of understanding government in all its parts. It has succeeded in accomplishing much good work for benefit of the masses, not indiscriminately.

FAILURE STRIKES HOME
Kreibel & Company, investment brokers, have passed into the hands of a receiver. This concern, regarded as one of the strongest in the city, is the largest in the nation and Third winds. One of the prominent officials connected with it was Franklin V. Babb, who began work in the organization nearly two years ago.
The bankruptcy proceedings are involuntary and are brought on by the insolvent company, not wholly responsible for the crash in its business. Frenzied conditions in finance throughout the company "Ponzi" schemes, resulted in an abnormal run on the assets of the Kreibel company. More than $900,000 in a month under an option providing for such withdrawals in their contracts.
The concerns were placed on $5,000,000 and assets at between $2,000,000 and $4,000,000.

THE CHANGING SOUTH
WHILE PERHAPS it is a bit early for constitutions, there are many encouraging signs to substantiate the belief that the South is slowly but surelyaking from her legarchy and groping on such ways and means of rehabilitation or, to be more exact, standardizing her states so that they canexemplify with the states in the other sections of the country. Whether there is any truth to the assertion that the South is fifty years behind the rest of the country or not, it must be conceded it is in the hands of HENRY POINT has contributed largely to this awakening with the government for the purchase of Muscle Shoe and the Albinism-like possibilities of this dormant Show that enriched the brain of even the Southern Rip Winkle and he is sitting up and taking notice of things round and about him. These signs of new life are as they are, and he must be recognized for his maltreatment of the meal ticket, but even in his inconsistencies the South's stagnation is due to the presence of the black man on the one hand while on the other he bitterly opposes his migrating.
THE JUDGE A. S. GRAFF, writing in the musculosa Gazette, proves very conclusively that he a friend, as his prejudices blind him to the situation that might show us in a favorable light, creating South, changing because the man of complying North, East and West, to where a Christian reigns, where it is glad recognized that he character from one living in an environment caused by men of the stamp of the judge.
THE ONLY PROPER answer to these ridiculous assertions is the monosyllable one. There is not a highest foundation for them, applied as they are, group as a whole. As truly might they be applied as they are, and they must have found the same qualities required for the successful farm such as self-reliance and strong love for home and family.
THE ONLY PROPER answer to these ridiculous assertions is the monosyllable one. There is not a highest foundation for them, applied as they are, group as a whole. As truly might they be applied as they are, and they must have found the same qualities required for the successful farm such as self-reliance and strong love for home and family.
A MAN of a mechanical turn of mind, who works at the bench might fall in any other occupation and we believe if there are any of our men who do not succeed as farmers that they fail not because of a lack of the qualifications enumerated by their criteria, but because of which they are failed, but so many white men have made, of trying to find man into a square hole, or vice versa.
IF THE ABSURD criticisms of this judge had a slight in them it might not be hard to find a reason to consistent and not always unsuccessful efforts, male men to prevent our men from enjoying educational and other uplifting advantages that would have limited their minds and equipped them for the very real challenges presented as having failed. But we emphasize that there has been such failure as charged with judge and those of his kind.
WHILE PERHAPS it is a bit early for congratulations, there are many encouraging signs to substantiate the belief that the South is slowly but surely awakening from her legarchy and groping about for ways and means of rehabilitation or, to be more exact, standardizing her states so that the North can compare her state with other nations on country. Whether there is any truth to the assertion that the South is fifty years behind the rest of the country or not, it must be conceded it is in the "21" class.
HENRY FORD has contributed largely to this awakening, especially in Alabama, for in his negotiations with the government for the purchase of Muscle Shoals, he persuaded the governor to penetrate the brain of even the Southern Rip Van Winkle and he is sitting up and taking notice of the things round and about him. These signs of new life, as gratifying as they are, must not be construed as meaning that the Southerner has abandoned his hobby — crushing the black man. Far be it from him to forget his meal ticket, even though in his inconsistency he holds the South's stagnation is due to the presence of other people on the other hand he bitterly opposes his migrating.
JUDGE A. S. VAN DE GRAAFF, writing in the Tuscaloosa Gazette, proves very conclusively that he is anything but a friend; his prejudice blinds him to any facts that might show us in a favorable light, creating rather a mileage of untruth. His article deals with the changing South, changing because the man of color is changing, and changing because the nation spirit reigns, where it is gladly recognized that one living in a friendly environment is a very different character from one living in an environment created by men of the stamp of the judge.
ACCORDING to this righteous judge the man of Color has no bent for farming; that, indeed, he is failing as a farmer for the reason that the discipline of slavery has left him only a "hand," possessing none of the qualifications required for the successful farmer, self-reliance and strong love for home and family.
THE ONLY PROPER ANSWER to these ridiculous assertions is the monosyllabic one. There is not the slightest foundation for them, applied as they are to our group as a whole. As truly might they be applied to the white race for the reason that of it are men who have failed because they, like their Colored brethren, have been ambiguous to rise, but have not always made sense of the means by which their desires might be attained.
A MAN of a mechanical turn of mind, who would shine at the bench might fail in any other occupation; and we believe if there are any of our men who do not succeed as farmers that they fail not because of any lack of the qualifications enumerated by their critics, but because they may have made the same mistake in the past, but failing to fit a round man into a square hole, or vice versa.
IF THE ABSURD CURSORS of this judge had any truth in them it might not be hard to find a reason—the consistent and not always unsuccessful efforts of white men to prevent our men from enjoying educational and other uplifting advantages that would have trained their minds and equipped them for the very duties in the performance that they were failed. But emphatically deny that there has been such failure as charged by this judge and those of his kind.
MORE SECTIONAL THAN PARTISAN
MANY OF OUR EXCHANGES in commenting upon her vote *y* which the Dyer anti-lynching bill pass. the house referred to it regrettably as having beaten a party measure—Republicans voting for it and Democrats against it as a partisan measure. This appears apparent than real. A careful analysis of the vote reveals the fact that it was more of a section than a party measure—the North being for it and the South—the PACT must not be overlooked that in aiding landslide of 1920 very few Northern Democrats were elected to congress. The bulk of the Democratic membership of the house, therefore, hailed far extreme South, a section in which elections do not and where lynch law had its inception and supported and sustained by local popular sentiment. THE NEGATIVE VOTE on this bill was 119—119 percent.
MANY OF OUR EXCHANGES in commenting upon the vote 'y which the Dyer anti-lynching bill passed the house referred to it regretfully as having been made a party measure—Republicans voting for it and Democrats against it as a partisan measure. This is more apparent than real. A careful analysis of the vote reveals that fact that it was more of a sectional measure—the North being for it and the south against it.
THE FACT must not be overlooked that in the Harding landslide of 1920 very few Northern Democrats were elected to congress. The bulk of the Democratic membership of the house, therefore, hailed from the extreme South, a section in which elections do not elect and where lynch law had its inception and is supported and sustained by local popular sentiment. Of the 172 of this number were cast by Democrats and 17 who were elected as Republicans. Of the 102 Democrats only two represent districts geographically classed Northern, to wit, California. Of the remaining 100 twelve came from the border states of Maryland, Kentucky, Missouri and Oklahoma. Half of that number came from Kentucky alone. The remaining 88 came from the extreme Southern states. To be more specific, attention is called to the fact that of the five New England states, only two of them Democrats, both from Massachusetts, one voted for the bill, the other did not vote.
IN NEW YORK there are nine Democratic members. Three voted for the bill, the other six did not vote, though some of this number are known to have been in favor of the Jersey City caucus coalition Democratic representative, both of whom voted in the affirmative. Illinois had three Democratic members. One voted for it, the other two did not vote. It will thus be seen that with only two negative votes north of the Mason and Dixon line the North was practically solid, regardless of party, in support of the South was practically solid in opposition to it.
THAT THE NEW Northern Democrats in congress could not be whipped into line by the representatives of the Southern oligarchy in opposition to this wilde and popular piece of legislation is a favorable sign and a hopeful beacon to deliver. He show the drift of pionn in the right direction, which will secure to American citizens, South as well as North, security and protection in the enjoyment of life, liberty and property. We are, therefore, looking forward to a speedy concurrence on the part of the senate in the action of the house in passing the bill. We have ever been in the limelight by doing some freakish thing, when Jack in reality is simply saving wood and trying to be a good citizen.
MOONSHINE is still on the warpath. Last week a youth after indulging in a glass killed his wife, baby and mother; now the gallows stares him in the face. Some people never seem to profit by the experience of others.

OUR WEEKLY SERMON [This space is devoted to the use of ministers throughout the country who desire to send a message of encouragement. 250 words, and may be sent without official notice.]
BE FRUITFUL AND MULTIPLY
By the Rev. Charles Williams
Pastor Shaffer's III.
Harvey, Illinois.
Gen. 1:27-28. "So God created man
image in the image of God created
a round female created by
them, and God said into them, Be
multiply and replenish the earth and
be moral standing of the twenteth
mong the modern, women is not to

multiply and replenish the earth is the
that God hath given. The physicis
scientists cannot eliminate the purpose
of the earth pass, one lot or one little
pass from the law till all be fulfilled.
Oversee therefore shall reject the co-
llection he shall be called the least in the kenn-
be shall but whosoever shall do and teach
one shall be called great in the king
." The causes of so many divi-
dory for the want of being a mother.
Text: Gen. 1:27-28. "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created him; male and female created the them. And God blessed them, and God said into them, Be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth and subdue it."
HE moral standing of the twentieth century among the modern women is not to come up to the Biblical standing of the text mentioned. And it is a question why? There are several reasons to be given, but none are justifiable with God.
To multiply and replenish the earth is the command that God hath given. The physicians and the scientists cannot eliminate the purpose of God. His word will stand. Natt. 5:18-19: "Till heaven and earth pass, one fot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law till all be fulfilled.
"Whosoever therefore shall reject the command of God, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven; but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven." The causes of so many divorces are usually for the want of being a mother.
THE HAITIAN SITUATION
WHAT EXCUSE has our government for its interference with the Haitian government? The answer to this question is: None whatever, except so far as it may be necessary to maintain the doctrine enunciated and promulgated as the Monroe Doctrine, which means that this government will not sit idly by and allow the government to impose its own authority, appropriate to themselves any of the governments or republics in this hemisphere or confiscate the revenues thereof, at least so far as the same relates to the governments the independence of which we had recognized.
THE APPLICATION and enforcement of this doctrine would necessarily be in the interest of human beings, and would not be in the interest of such governments. So far as Haiti is concerned the fact seems to be clearly established that our interference or intervention there is for a different purpose. In spite of reports to the contrary and partial whitewashing investigations thus far made, the impartial observer of current events can come to no other conclusion than that our occupation and intervention are not necessary for which the Monroe Doctrine is intended to prevent other governments from doing.
IN OTHER WORDS, our intervention seems to have been one of coercion, suppression, subjugation and destruction, not only of the independence of the country but of the lives of many of its citizens as well. All of this was and is unquestionably in the interest of greedy corporations in this country who are anxious to gobble up and appropriate the wealth by the country. To save our government from the shame and disgrace incident to the continuance of such a course, what the present administration ought to do is to immediately withdraw the American forces from the island and allow the people thereof to set up a government of their own, based upon the free and unrestrained expression of the will of its people and upon the recognition of the same by our government. The necessary treaties can then be made to be effective in protecting which the protecting care of this government can be invoked by that government whenever the same is deemed by them necessary.
NOW IS AN APPROPRIATE TIME for the inauguration of this procedure, because there is no present danger of interference from any European power. This is a subject which merits plain speaking. It is unquestionably the arrogant assumption that they are not only the salt of the earth, but that all other races and groups, wherever located, are their inferiorors and that the only way to demonstrate that fact is through brutal and inhuman treatment of any of the other races and groups with which they are brought in contact and over whom they may have temporary authority. THIS, IN ADDITION to the other reasons stated, accounts largely for the atrocities committed by those who represented our government. In consequence of this well founded impression and general attitude, we are incurring the ill will and displeasure, not only of the Haitians, but all of the other South American rebel governments, of the look of the government and are anxious to avoid being subjected to our control or mandate. In fact, we are being placed in the same category as the European powers with reference to their treatment of the peoples of weaker governments who are brought under their jurisdiction. Such, for example, as India, Egypt and under the jurisdiction of the British government.
THE SAME THING is practically true now of several heretofore foreign countries that have been brought under our jurisdiction, namely, Porto Rico, Portugal, and the United States, are now being made, and perhaps just so, by the Porto Ricans of the treatment they are receiving at the hands of our government, and while there are no open indications of revolt in the Philippine and Hawaiian islands, yet the administration to which they are subject is still in an indefective, thus making them career for independence or a local government based upon their own will and choice. Therefore, to maintain the good will and friendship of our neighboring republics and possessing the rights of their people, we must intervene and carry out a different policy that that now being pursued in Haiti.
MATHILDE'S HAPPINESS
THE WORLD, or at least a part of the REAL States, is agog over the impend of 18-year-old Mathilde McCormick to Oser. Said "agog" is caused by the is the daughter of Harold F. McCorm farm implement manufacturer, and of John D. Rockefeller, the world leader of a riding academy in Zurich. Swat nothing particularly strange at love has been finding its way through hardness of the differences in social position.

ALL THE WORLD, or at least a part of it called the United States, is agog over the impending marriage of 18-year-old Mathilde McCormick to 48-year-old Max Oser. Said "agog" is caused by the fact that the girl is the daughter of Harold P. McCormick, the girl's mother of John D. Rockefeller, the world's richest man, while the man in the case is simply the proprietor of a riding academy in Zurich, Switzerland. There is nothing particularly strange about this romance; love has been finding its way throughout the ages, regardless of the differences in social financial order. THOSE MOST INTERESTED are making less fuss about it than are the outsiders. But the doings of those in the upper crust make interesting reading to the other ninety and nine, so we find our newspapers devoting column after column of valuable space to an incident the like of which happens hundreds of times. The man being without as much as a line being written them. The only way this lower class can get their names in print is to fall out of an airship, commit some crime, discover where the wind goes when it doesn't blow, or something equally as sensational. The modern definition of "news" might be "anything the public interest in the general public can it interest," a public whom Mathilde Oser.

Joy and Wisdom
There lived a Man. In his Youth he opened a book; then plunged between Morocco and Cloth for Years. Seeking Wisdom. The answer to his question was: He found Theories, Facts and Reasons. Doing this, he left the Mass which Sang and Played.
One Day, he looked up from his Book and found himself-Alone. He looked through his Window, saw the Springtime, the happy Faces of sing-ing Heads, went to his Stoop. His Blood did Sung. The People saw him come down the Steps and they stopped their Caroling. Whispered to Each Other: "This Is He!" With outstretched Hands he came to them, with smile, face, and voice, "Come to Play!" They looked at Each Other with curious Gaze, then looked at him, the meanwhile scratching their Heads. While he waited for Them to bring him Companionship, they waited for him to speak to them from his Wisdom.
They gathered in Clusters and Wondered.
With bowed Head he turned Around and went up his Stoop to his Chamber. He looked at the walls lined with Volumes-Sets and Editions—went to his desk and laid his Head on his Arms and Wept.

We were somewhat shocked when the will announced all property, after we were told that we must pass to white people. With our own we may do as we please. Having earned a portion of this world's economic living, it is our own to bequeath, to leave unbequeaten, to waste or to hoard. We are thinking, beave labor from white people, give labor from white people the wages they pay us have no claim upon our bounty. Cases like the one at bar excute comment. Colored people almost quenchment, white people almost unanimously do not expect it. It is allowable to think that where white people devise testator were仁憲.

PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES HYGIENICS AND SANITATION In Some Areas and For Presentations In These Weekly Articles
FRIGHTENED—SPITTING BLOOD
monary tuberculosis—early pulmonary consumption, but it is not foolproof, and you should not rest day or night until you have a chest examination, together with a microscopic examination of your sputum expectedor on arising in the morning. If you are not able to pay your family physician for a private examination of sputum and your chest, you should go to the tuberculosis department to obtain necessary service in the way of examination and advice free. But do not delay this matter.
Mrs. B. J. writes: "I have spat up blood three times. Once about three weeks ago, another time since then and on last Friday I spat up a little blood all day. It has frightened me very much and I want to know if it is serious and what you would advise. Do you think I have tubercular trouble? I have been work- hard nearly sixten months general housework. About Dr. Williams
D.
Poor appetite. A poor appetite or loss of appetite is often the first symptom noticeable in the early beginning of pulmonary tuberculosis. This is due to the fact of poisons or toxicity being generated in the system. It may be a fact that you have gained 15 pounds in the last three years, and we feel safe in saying with your deranged appetite and in putting on weight you, that you are destined to have fever and the rapid loss of weight and strength. We would advise that you be weighed at least once each week.
three years ago I was sick with what the doctor called bronchitis, but he cured me in a little while. Now I am losing my appetite. Nothing tastes good. In the last three years I had a severe cough. I think I have tubercular trouble would you advise me to go South? I do not care to go to the sanitarium."
Reply: There is no cause for alarm or to become frightened because you have spat up blood three times; but there is cause for you to get busy and have a careful examination made—a diagnosis to determine the real cause of spat up blood. The spitting of blood to a person who has enjoyed good health and worked regularly for the past 16 months without losing a day is very significant, and should not be passed over as a trivial affair. You did not say whether the blood was bright red or yellow, and should not be blood mixed with particles of food, blood from the lungs is or a bright color, footh in character and mixed with air and usually is brought up by the act of coughing and has a more or less salty, stickening taste. On the other hand, blood from the stomach is a dark, glossy character mixed with particles of food and sometimes it has the taste and odor of the contents of the stomach. Tuberculosis is often ushered in by a moderate or a profuse hemorrhage from the lungs. This sometimes is a good thing because it acquires one condition, but it is not or him to seek medical advice, examination and diagnosis early.
Going South. In answer to your question about going South for tuberculosis, we see no reason why you should go South, as you can obtain better treatment where you are than anywhere in the South. Nearly all the Northern, Central and Western areas is not so much race discrimination—where you can obtain more human care and treatment than you can get in the various "Jim Crow" institutions of the kind in the South. Unless you have sufficient funds to properly care for yourself in the way of isolation, proper food, rest and treatment, the sanitariums is by all means the most desirable place for the treatment and cure of pulmonary tuberculosis. In the sanitariums you learn to live with and take care of yourself. You are under well trained, scientific attendants. You obtain information that will make you a better citizen when you leave the institution. People have sentiment against going to the sanitarium, but if you are able to gain entrance to the Municipal Tuberculosis sanitarium of Chicago you should be able to attain a cure in from she to eight months. This reason that they are opposed to taking advanced or fairly advanced persons.

veals a deplorable state of affairs existing in the French possessions which make him cry out for remedies to help these poor natives, and to help them to learn our small knowledge of history and the policy which has prevailed from the very beginning of empires when we read the sentiments of our friend, Jones. This is particularly true when King Saud. This policy is more concerned. We are not quite convinced that the exploiting companies of these nations have yet abandoned an inrained habit of sweating gold and silver. The intelligent policy is being sound since the lessons of the war. We hope so, anyway.
IT is sometimes confusing after listening to some silver tongue orator talk race pride and listen to the applause of the multitude more influenced by the amount of noise he makes than by what he says

A WORLD VIEW
WE heard a speaker describe a play athletic field of one of the famous schools of the country, boys on the field to you. He said on that field were over 200 boys at play and exercise, boys from all over the world, the son of the leader of the Japanese cabinet, the son of the ex-president of China, the son of the governor of the state of Missouri, two sons of one of the chief princes of the old Russian empires, were now serving their schoolmates at the dining hall to help earn an education, and the direct descendants of two of our country's presidents. It recalled the old saying that the problems of the British empire were settled on the playing fields of Eton. Will the future Washington play in the playing fields of America? The speaker, being an American white man without any particular blason on the race question of his own country, chiefly because he lives in New England and knows very little about it and also because he tries to practice righteousness and justice in his own life, naturally forgot to walk on the playing field, but boy was not yellow or red on that field. The biggest problem America and the Anglo-Saxon world faces is this question of color. No world view can be complete or accurate with the brother left out of the picture. If those boys from the ends of the world are to fulfill their proper destiny on the playing field, they must be a son of the people whom Abraham Lincoln freed to preserve the Union and the future of American government by the people.
dress memorial meetings for him for information about this sterling warrior of our very own whose life and career ought to have been common and Race. It is discouraging to have so much first-hand evidence of the ignorance of men striving to be Race leaders about one of the chief figures in the progress of the Race the present generation of the known people in the walking reading our own papers, books and magazines in order that we may free ourselves from the delusion of our childhood training that the world is a playground and a stage for white people to use in order to itself and our children to be familiar with the best we have produced and treasure that record as a promise of greater things to come. Highbrows who still look down on their own newspapers and books are trying to meet a very definite need and will fulfill their purpose better when the better trained among us grasp and sense their own deficiencies as quickly as they see and criticize the shortcomings of the fortunate everyday man in the street.
AFRICA
WE note with some interest the optimistic tone of Thomas Stokes Foundation concerning Africa and its possibilities since his return from his very recent trip to that little-known continent for the purpose of making an educational survey. Dr. Jones is naturally prone to see the bright side of certain angles of life, and he is glad there are some good things to be seen. They furnish some kind of taking-off place for making things happen, and they gladness. In the absence of a fuller report on the observations of Dr. Jones and his staff we are wondering just how that report fits in with the things revealed by Rene Maran in his sensational novel, Haitoula. Here we see that the study of one of the representatives nearest to the African in blood and tradition who has spent a large part of his life in Africa as an official of a colonial government staff, representing a race and nation which has a great point of view and policy in the world with reference to the darker peoples. Yet Maran finds and re-
HAVE YOU MET HIM?
HAVE you perchance among your friends one who persists in trying to form your opinions for you and commit yourself to most of his work. What is the interposition—"Don't you think?" and proceeds from that point as if you were in entire agreement with him. Especially is this true when he desires to take a mean little dig at you, but you give him a game enough to come out holdily with his own opinion without making sure of your position in the matter. When you protest by refusing to agree as tactfully as you can he appears to ignore you and proclaims to quote you without hungering for satisfaction—"As Bill and I were saying not long ago"—when as a matter of fact he did most of the saying while you were figuring how you could slidestep without hungering for satisfaction. Why did he not use the self-serving tribe and thereby ease the world of some of his troubles?

Aged Bandit Can't Fight; He Is Too Fat
Raisuli, African Leader, Is Ready to Quit; Fought America
Washington.—Railsul, the Moorish bandit who has just again offered to take the forces which are pushing an active campaign against him in Morocco, is State into action since drew the United States into action in that vexed corner of the world.
He figured in that celebrated inclusion when Secretary of State John Heyward "Perdicaris alive or Railsul dead."
That was 17 years ago, in 1904, Railsul had captured ton Perdicaris, the elephant, and kept him prisoner. President Roosevelt sent a fleet of eight elephants into action into the Tangier harbor while John Hay sent his famous message to the feeble sultan in nominal command. Grows Too Fat to Fight
Railsul, who now says he is "too fat to fight," and long been a leader of the wild tribesmen who have freted against battalions of a civilized power.
Perdicaris, a wealthy man, was stationed in administering affairs in Tangier city of his capture and it was recounted in administration affairs in Tangier graphic society bulletin. He was snatched out of his summer home by a mountain strangler.
From there the chieftain proceeded on a separate occasion to the city of Morocco, Portocarras' family and eventually in indirect fashion with the American government, concurring in his captive. The United States cut short the chieftain in the fashion desired by the American government, $70,000 in silver to Raisul, appointed him governor of a district, and Tangier jails and incarcerated some of Raisul's enemies in their place. The United States to express his thanks Prosperity, however, came close to ruining his erstwhile captain, Raisul, who had been about to capitulate about his governorship, was thrown out and promptly retaliated by Henry McLean, British commander of the Moroccan army. He arrayed his troops upon the coast, doing much damage to European interests, and in 1907 intertriggers in European diplomacy.
The French navy bombarded one of his captive towns, Casablanca, the now practically extinct Kaiser Wilhelm came to bat, sniffing, undue. From the pension in respect, but the matter was straightened out in a council chamber instead of on a battlefield. Raisuli was chased back to his mountain fastness, but news dispatches every few years record another of his eruptions.
Captivated Captive
"In many respects the man interested and attracted me in spite of all my personal motives of dislike," Perdlearis says. "Raisuli in the Geographic society report. 'Raisuli was gracious and dignified, not only to us, but to his own wild adherents, who evidently idolized their chieftain, whose position is among them intended in the head of his high and clan in old times. He was quick to see the humorous aspect of a situation, while his repartee was as immediate and to the point as though he had been born in County Galway."
Raisuli's self-control under provocation, all strayed a superior character.

Water appeared in places. The scene suggested the polders of Holland with high towering silver gray clouds in vertical layers, between which the in-visible sun, sent to its end, is in the landscape or seascapes of Van Goyen or Van de Velde, Francis Crucy writes in Illustration, Paris. (Trans. later for Kansas City Star.) Whenever the train showed down the place of the whole could be heard. The leveling of the land, the hitting of the sky, the following clouds in their silver light, the disappearance of the trees and, above all, the deep chant of the wind, all announced the sea.

What do YOU think Mr. Harding got tired about meat? Some say a stubborn Senate; others an ignorant Congress; while many say that worrying about meat is going to help without putting on the cash wore him down. Then there is the recent meeting to persuade intelligent people to give up their guns and sink their ships; that must have kept an awake until long after bedtime. Of course in trying to figure how to reward Colored Republicans without putting them in office, and how to get Colored leaders to forget the meat, you might have fatigued him a little, too. Let us pray for our ruler; wish him good health; be patient with him, and remember how brutal some of his enemies are.
A SOUTH AMERICAN scientist, arriving in New York, announces that he can change black to white; that he has already done so, having experimented on rats and humans; that says that he can pump blood out of a black rat, remove from it certain substances, run it back into the rat and thereby change the rat's color.
Now look for an advertisement of the scheme; calling to black and non-white people to come forward and be washed "white as snow." Do you ever think how inferior you look you try to become what you are not? Though called human, the first black person responding to the invitation to become white overnight will be the males the scientist has worked on a mere RAT. Change the heart; let your color be.
THE great Evening American, Chicago's organ of truth and fair play, prints from the matchless Brisbane an editorial on the new president of the Pullman company greatest American business, said Brisbane, "is wonderful, because he refused the invitation to become president unless all the men in his old company were taken in." This was many, strong, courageous, gunnery, the new president, we may honor and trust.
Then Brishane, always on the lookout for the under dog, asked the new president to remember the poor conductor, who is underpaid, underfed and underestimated. Moreover, whatever the Pullman president can do for them ought to be done. Our sympathy is very lively for a white man content to be a Pullman conductor. He needs attention, help, counsel and protection. The world reckons; but he looks good. He looks to look and promise of arm stripes. But as soon as the conductors have been helped out, let OUR president turn to the men who made the Pullman company; without whom there would be no Pullman business, the porters, the only Pullman ASSET.
The first night George M. Pullman opened his cars an old Colored man helped in selling tickets. He made down the first beds. Since that day, he has been porter plus and conductor. The porter puts the world to bed and wakes it up. He is nurse and physician, librarian, attendant, information bureau, barber and mentor in the school. He has educated, polished, all wool and a yard wide. Countless inferiorors call him "George." Any porter would be a loyal conductor who would be better conductors than many now begging at a generous gate. When the offer runs in "charge." Ask Pullman patrons about them; you will be told that the porter and the man make up the difference between coach and Pullman car riding. We hear porters, brakemen, flagmen, etc., talk about how Congress will be used to help them; relieve the roads to do this and that.
A better way for the porters would he to look up this new president; eye him, and tell him that, Congress or no Congress, they believe in their company and their new president, and that if they can't win his attention and assistance on their record, things have come to a pretty pass. YOU have read, doubtless, about the appointment of Frore as re-
corder of deeds for the District of Columbia. Free belongs in West Virginia. Senator Elkins, son of an ancient power in Republican councils, was the elder Elkins was a romantic figure. Other recorders: Frederick Douglas, Bruce, Taylor, Trotter, Chestam, John Dancy, Henry Lincoln Johnson.
Harding nominated Johnson to be recorder, but Watson, Georgia senator, told the senators that Johnson's confirmation would be a personal insult. Republican senators, as usual, got cold feet. Keep in mind now that in 1920 when Democrats were fighting to keep Harding out of the White House, the Republican that something crooked could be

Johnson was captain and king in the

way it was. This was a year or so ago.
Johnson is one of the 48 men in control of the Republican party, being member of the national committee, not only member, but brailest member. Let jealous and envious members of his own Race—a Race of envy and detraction—tell you what they will, Johnson, as a Republican, shines where his detractors would have cold face. The defeat of Johnson and the big to-do over the appointment of Free shows as plainly as the nose on your face what a bad fix the Negro is.

RAY STANNARD BAKER is telling the secrets of the Paris
peace conference. A few days ago he printed one of Mr. Wilson's "notes" in which some of his countrymen are referred to as "Niggers."
France, England and the U. S. A almost fell out over Colored士兵 a treaty to provide that France could call on her fighting blacks in case of war. Hold now, said Lloyd George; how far, he went on, does France mean to go? In chinched France and beating around the bush on a matter beyond his interest.
Finally, so the secretaries put down, the ministers and statesmen used so far; they might protect colonial possessions, but not on battlefields away from home.
Clemenceau remembered the million Colored troops of France; re-used so far; they might protect Varennes, Vedrum and Colmar. So he told the secretary to put back in the treaty that France would call to her children, without any thought of COLOR whenever France had to fight.

BRYAN can't even beat a dead one. It is the only one that Kentucky legislature, called on to decide a debate between Darwin, who is dead, and Bryan, who is living, went for Darwin. Bryan has lost Kentucky before.
Bryan says that man did not deserved to be criticized, but came directly from heaven; from the Great Purpose; and that it is an insult to his Creator to teach that man, monarch of all he surveys, must accept his ancestry in ape and toads. He has been called "Outline." You have read Wells "Outline."
Mr. Bryan may not have come down, or up, from apes or monkeys; discerning men in line to his viewpoint; but, as we remember him, and displays much rabbit, being constantly on the run, and as likely to be jumped up in one field as readily as in the other; Nebraska today, Florida tomorrow. But always running Mr. Bryan choose the rabbit.
No, says our great state secretary, Charles E. Hughes; no will not go to Genoa. Genoa is in Nebraska, and we can there start on off a hunt for a new world. What do you know about Genoa? What historical interest have we in that place? Think now. What is Genoa? What is the U. S. A.-would be out of place travelling to Genoa to set up a new order when we have an order in ourselves that seems to require close attention. Europe only uses us for a good thing, borrowing right and left.
On top of this, Marguerite Harrison, returning from Russia, says all this cry is about desolation in that place. What averages are Americans think of it.
Russia is not half as bad off as 10,000,000 American Colored people. They are happy in strange Russia. Russians go up in the want to. The American Negro, having put everybody else up, cries his prostration into ears closed to him, but open to it. It is closer to Washington to New Orleans than from Washington to Genoa. Let us get up to a New Orleans and start and start. We'll out our trapping our guns; redecaling the courthouses; sinking the ships of hate, etc.

When the pupil is considered fair, he may be placed in rooms in order to get some idea of the atmosphere of the place from the point of view of the cropper. From any other collection of human beings, the cropper must study its psychological curiosity or a mere desire for pleasurable sensation. Afterwards he is given charge of a table and his ca
Croupiers are of two kinds—the croupier who presides in the baccalary and the jointman over petits chevaux or roulette. Petits chevaux croupiers have in many ways an entirely distinct role. They are many who can act as croupiers for petits chevaux, roulette and baccalar.
Have Steel Nerves
They must be men of steel nerves and the tact of diplomats to combat or appease the claims of those who dispute bats. And what is even more important is the接待 with nimbleness and dexterity, for the wheel never stops, and no sooner is a number called than the must be cleared for the next spin.
The baccarat coupler has a double duty to perform—he must lift the cards and jetsons with the applewood knives at the same time deduct the cagotte—the 5 per cent proportion which the Casino and state take of the skill of these men is amazing. They will calculate the amount to be deducted in a trie, seeming to work like a treasure chest, played, with the slightest jerk they will draw half a dozen cards one on top of the other and drop them up by an almost imperceptible turn of the wrist.

Vancouver Mourns "Old Joe"
100
Most renowned life-saver in Vancouver. For two-score years Joe Fortes had been guardian of the city's children at English Bay. At his death, mothers and fathers whom "Joe" had protected when they were children crowded the church where the services were held. The newspapers of the city paid a splendid tribute to his community service and to his character.
Drive Secures First Bible in United States
Chicago.—The first Bible printed in the United States sprang directly from England and Wales in a manner somewhat akin to the Liberty loan drives, according to George B. Utley, a librarian at the Library here. The library has both the first American Bible and the act of the English parliament which led to it.
This Bible was a translation into the tongue of the Massachusetts Indians. For years John Elliot, a Puritan seeing from persecution the Mayflower had been sending back to England reports about missionary success among the Indians.
His sons came into power he found a friendly government, and in 1649, within six months after Charles I was executed, when he passed "An act for promoting propagating the gospel in New England." This created a corporation consisting of 100 men, which offered jobs on this work.
But more especially it ordered "a general collection in all the counties, cities, towns and parishes of England and Wales, required to be admitted to and to the help of their gregations and instructed them with others, to "go with all convenient speed from house to house to every parish and place, to parishes and places, respectively, and to take the subscription of every such person in a schedule to be presented to them for that purpose and accustomed to the time to collect and rather the same."
Better education of the Indians was also named among the purposes of the corporation. The four Indian towns with schools in Massachusetts and the "praying Indians" there numbered. This collection ordered by parishment brought in about 11,000 pounds, it is reported. This collection later in 1632, Elijah finished the first complete Bible printed in the western hemisphere. Its title page bears the inscription, "Of the most important of the consent of the corporation in England for the promotion of the Gospel amongst the Indians." The place of printing was Cambridge, Mass., where 23 years before Ellot had helped compile the Bay John book to come to off press in what is now the United States.
Knoville, Tenn.—Belated correspondence from Winfield, a remote mountain section tells of the alleged murder of a girl, Mrs. Nanna Strunk, a widow, her daughter and two small sons. The tragedy is said to have resulted from a fight between two girls were playing marbles. The onslaught of the mother and children bowed and an 11-year-old son is said to have stabbed Walker, in the heart.

STORIES INTERESTINGLY TOLD
Folks Refuse to Grow Old in These Days
They used to say that a woman is as old as she looks, and I suppose, as young as she looks. Her hair may be gray, and it may be difficult for her to thread a needle without glasses; but if her mouth is still mobile and does not withdraw itself into a frog look when she knits, if she has no double chin and her waist has not settled into her hips in that wide, deep way, we know that she is still young. Perhaps there are as definite age signals in men, but I think not, despite the significance of the expression of a man's hat, says a writer in Scribner's John Burroughs said, no one that enjoys apples is old. I remember one most charming idyl of youth when not many years ago the young brother of a friend of mine and John Burroughs himself sat on the sofa, discussing a certain peculiarity of a bird the boy had observed. The long white beard and the knotted hands were utterly negligible as one watched the fire of enthusiasm and youth in those keen, humorous eyes. John Burroughs had lent his figure.
Never in the world has there been so great a need of young-old men to learn to understand young to understand the young, and the young today are almost tragically in need of being understood. One is the young who are bringing up the question. It is such an old story, this problem of the younger generation—old as the hills are now. However, it is not altogether threadbare. No problem is while it remains a problem. Therefore, I dare make it audibly, that is the older point: that the young are always making, although they do not always make it audibly, that is the older point: that the young are always appointing. Perhaps one reason for this is that the Victorian era preserved so many old people. Timidity is astrous to chins. Think of the picture of Queen Victoria at 431. Elizabethan days men were young; in Victorian days they are trying to keep young, but in Victoria's day and the years that followed they seem to have become much shorter, minute they ceased to be children.

the death and incidents following it, of Joe Fortes, for many years lifesaver at English Ray, Seattle, Wash., furnishes a splendid example of the manner in which our neighbors to him honor and respect men, regardless of color, who prove worthy of consideration, any line. The following article, which was taken in its entirety from the Vancouver Daily Province by the city editor, is so comprehensive that any further comment is unacceptable. The newspaper furnished by the same newspaper. The writer wishes only to call the time of the death of the man his interment. This is mentioned only by way of contrast. The story, as reported in the issue of Feb. 7, follows:
This morning Vancouver did honor to the passing of Joe Fortes, the late mayor of Vancouver. Buy for generations. Loved during the whole of his life, his death was signalized by an impressive funeral. He was the patron of the proctaculum called Joe's friends to his last obsequies, but by that time he was dead. The exception of the seats reserved for the hall bearers, and people were standing two deep in the aisles. As the crowd filled up, the presence of the cortege the continually increasing crowds filled every avenue of approach. And Blohards streets were filled for a whole block in each direction with those who came from their business or from their homes. It was the last of their friend. It is a conservative estimate to say that there were at least 10,000 people present by 10AM. The identification of the requiem mass.
"Old Black Joe"
During the half hour before the celebration of mass the organist, whose theme was building with a stately dinge whose theme was the plaintive old plantation melody. "Old Black Joe" was worked into the fabric of the music; first quietly and in a subdued manner, and finally, gradually this note gave place to a stronger tone and a plush, plush, plush, plush, plush came from the deep heart of the organ, and finally all minor and sorrowful modes of expression were brought into the organ, voicing called Old Black Joe" swelled in a glorious major burst of triumph through poed wide and the casket containing all that was mortal of the old lifeguard was carried up the alba and allowed by Chief Anderson and Deputy Chief Leatherade to be placed on a bench by Chief Anderson and Deputy steps. The coffin was received at the doors by Rev. Father Thayer attended by acycles bearing the procession of Mayor Tidell with Alderman Frank Woodside, Tracy, Scrollins, the treller Dilkington were in attendance. There were also a number of Vanoucre's Colored citizens present honor to their well loved brother.
Father O'Boyle's Tribute
Boulum mass was sung by the choir and celebrated by Rev. Father Phipps. The close of the mass Father O'Dowley father, Father O'Dowley and delivered a short and touching tribute to the deceased. We are assembled today: we said this you are also honoring yourself by coming here to observe the passing of a guardian of young brothers truly built in the image of God. His one aim and joy in life was service. He was an example of industriousness and hard work of his best to all and without distraction for the sake of the community. This great fathering is extinct and brotherly love abiding in the great heart of Vancouver, when so many of all classes of her citizens leave for long gave his whole life to safeguard the lives of others." Father O'Dowley took occasion to teach the art and to dust thou shall return." At the close of the sermon the reverend father referred again to his parents and said: "He will not be denied the peace and comfort of eternity. Let us hope that some day a suitable monument will be placed in his memory."
Father O'Boyle then pronounced absolution over the body and the ball bearers here the casket out through the thousands of bareheaded mourners throning the street and placed it in the waiting hearse.
The cortege moved off down Dunsmull street, followed by the wonderful decorated float carrying Joe's boat, covered with floral offerings from Stanley Park. The procession, which passed down Granville and Hastings and on to Mountain View, via Main street, was headed by Inspector Hood, followed by the band of the Elks, playing Chopin's funeral march. A large number of automobiles followed the procession to the cemetery, where the final rites were observed.
The police commissioners, school trustees, park commissioners, the Vancouver Amateur Swimming club and other organizations were officially represented. The police department furnished the ball bearers, who were Inspector Long, Sergeant John Deleon, Constables J. G. McLellan, H. Morrison, A. Nickerson and R. P. McGrenna.
Wreaths were received from the following: Mrs. H. O. Bell-Irving and family Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Dickie, W. F. Marnote, Mr. and Mrs. F. M.

Motherhood, Once Said To Be Immodest, Gets New Hearing
Twenty-five out of every 100 people who die in Mexico are babies less than 2 years old, writes Mary Mellal, in the state in the New York Mail. That is, who became the most famous fatres de Pruneda to the United States to seek ammunition for the fight she is leading in Mexico against the high infant mortality rate.
Mrs. Pruneda, accompanied by her husband, Dr. Alfonso de Pruneda, secretary of the Mexican department of health, attended the recent meetings of the American Public Health Association in New York.
But Mrs. Pruneda did more than listen to speakers. She visited all New York's health organizations and held conferences with baby specialists and health experts wherever she found them, for the ammunition she must carry back to Mexico is methods and ideas.
"Mexican women are such good mothers," she said. "But they are not scientific. They do not understand the proper care and feeding of children."
When they were young girls such things were not taught them at school because the hare suggestion that they might some day become mothers was considered inmodest. Mexican women have always loved their homes and clung very close to the shelter and seclusion they found
This very timidity has made Mrs. Pruneda's task one that requires her to be won over opposition and prejudice which at first seem insurmountable, and which she both have such absorbency as to work together for the good of all less than 14, have been scientifically reared, and Mrs. Pruneda has found that a help in the campaign is essential, and the inclined to be skeptical are reassured when they discover that the exponent they have been trying to try on her own brood. Through the efforts of Dr. and Mrs. Pruneda, the student of the Mexican Society for the Care of Children, Mexico had its first baby week in September. The student of the Mexican Society for the Care of Children, Mexico had its first baby week in September. Mrs. Pruneda relates happily "Rich women who a few years ago worked, helped with the babies and poorer women would take no money for labors of love they performed." Women are also advancing along other lines in Mexico, Mrs. Pruneda said, an office at the last election, defying the tradition of centuries. She was not for other women candidates later.

stands out as vividly in my memory as my adventures with the dreadful African Buffalo, considered many of the most famous and most well-known and the spawning of all bigBirds, not excluding the black-maned lion and the squint-cycled rhinoceros. It was located near the native town of Buumrumō in Lower East Bulwayo, one of the wildest sections of the Dark Continent, and the most abundance of the most everly description. In fact, it is a veritable hunter's paradise and it was here that I secured many of my rarest specimens for the Hambonian Museum of Unmanned History. Such situation financed the vertical trip (and on which they still owe me dough). The summer of 1912 had been a very eventful one. I had lost more than a half score of men in my percerationa through the jungle and the wildness of the gos and the lively and the lively and the terrible cheered fever and it was only on account of my wonderful constitution and a liberal use of jump-stiddy that I am in the midst of you today. It was cheered over in something awful in White's squares and all over its victims' bodies and before he is the three days he looks like an animated checkerboard. It is impossible for the sick person to remain still for a second, he is the moving all the when he gets cheered in the native town. It is the most severe of it's his move, and in the more severe cases they have been known to jump.

I had made arrangements with Chief Eighteenth Cavalry, a mounted member of the African Buffalo. The chief was more than glad to have me work on these animals, but I was not confident that they were an actual menace. They never failed to take advantage of a chance to pursue and capture native animals that were caught in the path of one of these蛮狠 brutes. A full army of the shoulders and weights as much as 3,000 pounds. They can cover the ground at terrific speed and which hook out in front and their heads are set upon neck and shoulders of prodigious size. The small elephant that had been butted, goved and trampled by one of these beauties, the African Buffalo body had been broken. One of the peculiarities of the African Buffalo is its habit of wearing trousers, and instances are known to me where, after having been wounded, the animal would treat the wounds with fatal results. These these brutes must be done on foot, for no horse would be active enough to handle the Buffalo charges. I tell these things so my readers can understand the character of work I had done in my expedition.

clearing, acting for the world as if he were playing hide and seek with himself, uncompromising. He passed slowly under the branch in which he was standing, but he passed his back. With a most horrible below he spring into the clearing and then began as exciting a ride as he buildup, buckling bronchos of the wild and woolly West; they were just the same hardwood parlor floor by comparison. Up and down, around and around large circles, and then in a hurry he jumped out on the dead run around the clearing, making the circuit half a dozen times one way and half about the same direction, but I hung onto him like a Philadelphia rooming house chinch in the path which I had followed from the village I noted the cow buffalo we neared this path on our next go-round. I let loose a shot into the air; with this the cow whirled about the hull over the side of the head with the butt end of the heavy rife which his mate was running. It was a race which would have been worth a thousand dollars to have seen from every tenth jump. I would fire the
brush. These trackers were armed with assensia and were absolutely devoid of a loin cloth. They insisted upon this latter condition in order to be uninterrupted when they found necessary. I didn't have any too many clothes on myself, although I had a lot of them on my plans. We had progressed something like three miles when we met the camera, but fast as their long legs would carry them. I tried to make them hesitate, but they were not to be hesitated. At this point I heard a terrific noise from the camera, but they were not to be hesitated. This was the signal for the gun bearers and the camera boy to start moving. I didn't consider it anything short of cowardly—the manner in which my decided to show them exactly what real speed means. I think I covered the first mile and then reached a small stream which it had taken us ten minutes to cross on our way and was about to be hit by the camera boy when I heard another of those belows. I am not positive, but I think it was the friction which made the stream like a duck. Anyhow, when I reached the village two miles farther, I hadn't got my feet wet. Maybe it was the friction which made the camera boy out and the camera boy took a "snap" as I went by. The picture of bodies of my feet showed so grimly.
A BULL RIDING
The following day I armed myself with my trusty 4-11-44 Adams Excelsior all by myself. I had decided that I didn't care to be hampered by a bunch as slow as foot or foot as fast as few of them accompanied me to the edge of the jungle. The chief had given me silence, but might come in handy for me and I felt greatly measured despite my being alone. I had taken the day before and after recroting the stream above mentioned I struck bulky through the water something like two miles when I came to a clearing about a quarter of a mile in circumference, so absolutely as possible it was a good thing that I had done so, for there, in the very middle of the jungle, I found a dreaded animals. The wind was against me, so they had not got my snake, and selected a large kid-neyen tree which I climbed to the first large branch so that I could snake and selected a large kid-neyen tree I could watch the animals and act at my leisure. The cow and the elephant the dog and the male lay perfectly still. Take careful aim at the spot just behind the left ear of the dog and the gun was something awful, and when the smoke cleaned I looked toward the end of the car and the end of the second before, but they had gone, and I could see the dense underbrush still shaking at the point where they

We soon reached the stream that I have told about the. cow had heintended to bury the bull crushed into her with such terrific force that she sailed half way across the river and bounced into the mud and hung on like grim death. Up the opposite bank we went and then on our stealthy, kept a safe distance ahead. Straight into the village she led, both steadily, kept a safe distance ahead. Lowered. Several buildings were ripped through and then I noted that the cow was dashing straight at a square the square. The bull, with me aboard, was about 15 feet in her rear. Bang! I buckled up and fell in a heap, when BANG! crushed the bull. An he did not lose his house and allowed from his back up until it pretified and as any dove that ever flipped a wing. I lit up that tainted that both the animals were lying beneath the tree all humped up and camels.

The meat was seemed to enjoy it and the skin and bones of the two animals repaid me and the spirit spent and the risk run. Yes=No?
Climbing down out of the tree I walked, ride in hand and ready to shoot, to whites before, small aparturing of blood told me that I had made a hit. I immediately made it back to my tree, climbed aloft and was longing to wait, for in less than five minutes I heard a very wary rustling sound coming inside the jungle from the rift.

White Superiority Is
Refuted by Scripture

White Superiority Is
Refuted by Scripture
Says Writer
By MORGAN BLAKE
To arrive at any definite and intelligible conclusion relative to the inferiority of the Colored Race, we must in the beginning comprehend what is meant by the term "inferiority." This word, to all appearances, has been resolved into a stock term in referring to our Race by Southern writers and editors, and some Northern ones who have Southern proclivities. I have beheld it in all the relative degrees of its modification "marked inferiority," "comparative inferiority," etc., and after ascertaining its meaning find it not only to be an exaggeration, but an absurdity, upon reasonable, "inflogical and utterly fulec."
In defining "inferiority" I find it synonymous with subordinary, shortcoming, deficiency, ignoble, vulgar, savage, obscure and uncivilized. So after a protracted period of discriminative thought upon the matter take this means to present authoritative evidence, based upon careful inquiry and logical reasoning, which will demonstrate without a possibility of uncertainty, the ignorance and imbecility of the use of the term in this "its deceptive and untruthful"
Short-Sighted Writers
Some very narrow-minded, jaundiced and short-sighted writers say, and they must be indescerably so indeed to attempt to answer with such an unreasonable argument, that color is a sign of inferiority. That color is the sign of a curse placed upon the Ethiopian race. The curse of which slavery was a corollary, is an imagine no more fallacious, ignorant, idiotic statements than these if all this be true, then what about the Hebrews, who are, according to the Bible, "God's chosen people?" They were held in captivity by the Egyptians for many long years. Were they black? No, they were not. But Herodotus tells us that their captors the Egyptians, were a dark-skinned people. Can we doubt the word of Herodotus, the father of historians? The Greeks had slaves, probably all white, as we can nowhere find any others specified. The Romans had slaves, the Phrygians, the Africans, the Cretans, the Dalmatians, the Britons, the Seythians, the Ionians and the Alexandrians. We see at the glance were the slaves of the Romans numbered more white than black. So the statement that slavery is the corrally of a curse is thus disproved.
Bible Upholds Theory
And so far as color being a sign of inferiority, the Ethiopians were black statements are the Holy Bible, Jerusalem's heirotodus in his "Ethiopian," and Monsieur Volney, a celebrated French the Hebrew leader and prophet, married an Ethiopian woman. The Holy Bible again referred to chapter XI of his "Artiquity of the Jews," and Adam Clarke, in his Commentary on Exodus, all said that the Ethiopians were so logical that Moses, the eminens leader and lawgiver, would have chosen an Ethiopian woman for his eminens Ethiopians were deemed inferior, age.
Then we have that time-worn, arcade hallcane, the "Hamitic Theory," imagination to conceive that in this modern day of advanced intelligence man can still believe such nonsense cursed by his father, Nathan, and then he and all his progeny turned black, their hair all became woolly, their noses all became furry, and their heads were shaded. Shades of Genesis, can anything more sophisticated be imagined? If the first believers and dogmatic expatriates surmise, would give it just the least bit of intelligent thought, and a trilist of the time they use in prescribing to the people of the earth, and find that Ham was born with all his racial peculiarities, such as woolly hair, it, and the same place when Ham was over a hundred years old. And that the name Ham in antiquityl Adamic or Hebrew language means
Adam Not White
Then, how can the only true "Sons of God" he those white males who can be of pure-blooded ancestors back to Adam, when Adam himself was NOT white? Josephus and other antiquarians say that Adam was called "cured" for the name Adam in the antediluvian Adam means red. So the white brother, in the white brother's estimation, and solely because of color, I hope to have disproven any claim that the white brother is in support of this theory. And when the white man discovers, or is awakened to the fact, that—regardless of color—his ancestors were servitude—the Race is a vital factor in this large democracy of ours, he has made a discovery of inacceptable to the progress of American ideals.

Noted Men and Women
Mary Church Terrell
Mary Church Terrell was born in Memphis, Tenn., where she received her early education. She then went to Oberlin, where she received both her A.B. and A.M. degrees. She intended to become a teacher in modern languages, so she went to Europe and spent two years in France. Italy, Germany and other countries in pursuance of this object. When she returned to the United States in 1910, she was appointed a teacher in the high school at Washington, D.C. Mrs. Terrell is a national figure, having been president of the National Association of Women's Clubs for three consecutive terms, and is now a member of the board of education of the District of Columbia. She is very extensively traveled. This lady is an excellent model for young girls to pattern their lives after, and it can be said without fear of contradiction that what gained her the place she holds in the community will do the same for others—stern application and diligent study.
Truth About Us
It has been asserted that during the first and longest service of any American regiment and has had less training than in action. One of our regiments is of being the first unit of all the allied forces in the war, and of being represented in our people enlisted in the British and French armies before this country was formed. The French troops represented in every branch of the military. The French troops with whom we are most familiar are very fond of their black American coats, and many lasting friendship links. Rise soldiers would not return to the war, and entered into business in France. According to all reports, they are all dead.

"Tree and Rope Are Natural Weapons," Says American Woman in an Address
By LEON CORNICK
RANCE, the greatest democracy in the world, is under fire. Under the fire of opponents to her ideal program of fair play to all, regardless of color. Prior to the outbreak of the World War the attitude of France toward the black man was not so widely known, except to that class of Americans who were rich enough to tour Europe at certain intervals. During the war the rank and file of American citizenry were transported to France to serve in American armies. There they became acquainted with the policies of the French nation toward their black cousins. There they saw not only divisions composed of both black and white regiments, but regiments composed of black and white men. Members of the same companies, sleeping side by side in the same bunks, eating at the same mess tables. It seemed almost incredible.
American soldiers openly boasted that "that kind of business wouldn't go in the American army." American officers of the high command protested to the French government against it. It must be remembered that these protests came from men who had presumably come to France to fight for democracy. But France, whose components are people who believe in just two principles, justice and respect, would pay no attention to these protests. Her black and white soldiers continued their close association throughout the dark period when the German hosts were ravaging, burning and pillaging as they swept over northern France.
Mistreated by M. P.'s
During this period the American soldiers did not have much time for the extension of propaganda, as they were kept busy trying to keep back the German hordes. But during the months immediately following the signing of the armistice they gave this matter their full attention. Whenever and wherever possible they would speak in disparaging terms of the American black man. They related the most preposterous stories of his misdeeds. They painted him the deepest black. The American soldiery were united in this affair, those of the North with those of the South. American officers in charge of bases created general orders and special orders prohibiting black soldiers from visiting French homes. Military police had orders to "first knock h— out of them, and then arrest them," if they caught any Colored soldier coming from the residence of a Frenchman. The genuine politeness and gallantry of the Race soldier captivated the hearts of the French people before he had been long in their midst. He was a pleasing contrast to the white, who had looked down upon the French as inferior, which, by the way, is characteristic of the American of all classes. He looks upon everyone as inferior. They learned the French language with disconcerting rapidity, and their ability to make the people understand their side of the question was made less difficult.
But the French nation could not forget the brilliant exploits of these same men of whom the white soldiers now spoke so ill. They could not forget that the first American soldiers decorated with the Croix de Guerre were two of these same black men. They could not forget that four complete infantry regiments and one whole battalion were awarded the Croix de Guerre for gallantry in action. Neither could they forget the splendid fight waged by the 936 division, which for the most part was brigaded with the French troops. These men fought manfully in the Champagne and the Argonne, and were highly praised by their French companions. The 370th, our own Eighth, a part of this division, received more citations for bravery than any other American regiment on the field of battle.
Seeing that the seed of their promanda was falling in barren places, and that they could not succeed in turning the French nation against men of color, the whites then determined to have it out with their erstwhile companions in arms. Upon the slightest provocation, Race soldiers were set upon and beaten by gangs of white soldiers. Military police were the leaders in these outrages. They had their orders from their commanders and they endeavored to live up to the civil reputation they have gained through the years as marines. White soldiers and sailors have often been heard to express their dislike for a marine. They have often been heard to say that the only thing they "hated worse than a marine was a d**- nigger." White officers took no steps to stop or prevent these outrages. But one band a band of drunken white soldiers set upon an Algerian who happened to be garbed in a salvaged American army overcoat and gave him a severe beating. The matter

was taken up by the French government with the American high command and as a result of this action an order was promulgated that all such offenses in the future would subject the offenders to a court-martial.
Then, and then only, did they cease. Then the word went around. "Wait until we get them home." Letters were written home to friends and relatives that "this is a h—— of a country. These frogs allow niggers to stand on the street and talk to white women. We can't do anything to them over here, but just wait 'till we get them home, we'll fix 'em." This was typical of the attitude of the white all over France. He made no bones of telling what he intended to do just as soon as he got out of "this man's army." And when the vanguard of returning troops arrived in America they immediately began their "fixing."
Reports From Home
Soon reports began to filter through to the Race soldiers still in France that "John Jones of Sometown, Ga., had been selzed when he arrived home by a mob and lynched." Letters were written to some of the boys by mothers and fathers begging them, "Please don't come home." Every day some Race soldier in France would learn of the lynching or burning of some other Race soldier who had arrived home, and instead of being received with shouts of praise and acclaim was received with the rope and the torch. These conditions persisted in isolated cases and at intervals, until finally things were brought to a head by the riots in Chicago and Washington. These affairs taught the white man that the Race man was fully capable of defending himself, and if driven to it, would do it. It is safe to say that the whites of Chicago will think a long time, before they start another conflagration like that of July, 1919.
Then the grand shout went up that France was to blame. The French policy of liberty, equality and brotherhood' was blamed for the terrible
toll of lives taken by the Race in the defense of their lives and property. What is to be done? France must be discredited before the world. Americans in both private and public life assented to this. France must be made to discard such a foolish and (to the American) injurious policy, or be discredited in the sight of nations. They concluded that the best place to strike he was through the self-same principle that she persisted in main-
THE
A French Adjutant taining. A system of propaganda was promulgated attacking the French colonial troops on the Rhine. Cries went up that they must be withdrawn.
One woman, Ray Beveridge, glided herself and journeyed to Germany, there to extend her polsonous propaganda. Another, the wife of the Illinois congressman, Britten, started for France to show Marshal Foch "where he got off." But somehow the shoe was placed upon the other foot. Instead of showing the "Conqueror of the Boche" anything, she was told where "to head in." And in a statement that was given due publicity, the marshal told the world that in all things pertaining to the French army he needed no suggestions and took no orders.
Women Preach Lynching
Of the two women, Miss Beveridge was the most vultuperative. She landed in Hamburg and immediately made arrangements to make an address at the principal hall of the city against the "Black Horror." She pointed out the fact that the use by France of black troops on the Rhine was detrimental to the culture of the world. She said:
"The mere fact of their presence on the Rhine must fill us with just indignation and must appear as an unpallied blow to culture."
Everyone who followed through the press during the years of 1914 to 1916 the march of the Germans through Belgium and northern France kgows of just how much culture the German nation was possessed. Does the 'Beveridge woman forget the German atrocities during Easter week, 1916, at Lille? Or has she no knowledge of that affair? If not, then I take the liberty of referring her to one of her country-women, Miss Margaret Deland, who made extensive investigations and who can relate to her some weird and almost incredible facts. Does she know that the preferred victims of the Germans were women

and girls? Doesn't she know that many atrophied and many degenerate types of children were among the barbarous legacies left behind by the German invaders? Evidences show that the German barbarity in the sections of France occupied by the Boche armies was appalling. Is that culture? Germany is stained with inefaceable crimes. And this is the nation for whom a plea is made because of their culture.
During the course of this woman's remarks she repeatedly made use of the term "nigger," and jubilantly told of the way Race men were treated in the southern part of her own country. She said in part:
"Your weapons have been taken from you, but there is always a rope and a tree. Take up the natural weapons used by our men of the South. Lynch! Hang every black who assaults the white race!"
Then she went on to tell the crimes that had been committed by the French colonial troops during the period of their occupation of the

Rhine provinces. All of which have since been investigated by a committee, composed of the leading statesmen of both France and Germany. Such Germans as Maximilian Harden, Herr Breuten and Herr Schmidt, publicists and men of affairs. This committee found that the reports of these alleged atrocities were unfounded and were lies of the most unmitigated type. The bishop of Spire, an eminent German churchman, was also a member of this committee.
German Atrocities
But that same investigating committee would not have to look far to find evidences of the utrocities committed by German flends in human form. There are so many instances that we shall just take one at ranwiller, Alsace. The French arrived dom—the happenings at Bourzure Aug. 8, 1914. The Germans recaptured it on the 9th, because of their numerical superiority. On the morning of the 10th, between 4 and 5 o'clock, two half sections of the 110th and 111th Infantry Regiments, forced their way into the courtyard of a house where they had learned several girls resided. The aged father of the girls begged the soldiers to go away, and steadfastly refused to open the doors. The soldiers then turned their rifles on the house and fired into it until they had set it on fire. Naturally the inmates rushed out to escape being: burned to death. The father and two young sons were shot down as they ran from the burning building.
The three girls, aged 15, 17 and 20, respectively, were captured and compelled to accede to the desires of the soldiers. They were violated by nearly the whole of the command. The mother, aged 41, was also violated, and then shot. The three girls died from the treatment they had received. Isthis the culture to which Miss Beveridge has reference?
On the morning of the 14th of August, two companies of the first battalion of the 1536th Regiment were sent from Rixhelm to Bourzwiller. These men were under the command of Captain Derichs, First Company, and Captain Kuehne, Third Company. All the way to the town the soldiers conversed in lustful terms of the girls of the village and spoke of their intentions once they arrived. Burning and pillaging began the moment they arrived in the place. Women were seized and violated. All over the town these things took place. Houses to which the lustful soldiery could not gain access were set on fire and the occupants shot when they ran out.
Women and girls were chased like wild animals through the vineyards. "Kommen sie mit mi, du frechen freuenzimmer," the soldiers would shout at the harassed women. This translated is, "Come to me, you haussin." Captain Derichs, who was the ranking officer in command, strode through the streets encouraging his friends in their awful work. "Wenn dem wollen nicht, schlort
RN! AMER
sle tot, die hunde," was the order he gave. "If they will not, kill them, the dogs." And then when the soldiers had appeased their lust they would leave the women with not a strip of clothes on them. It was no common sight to walk through that town and see scores of young women and girls lying dead or dying upon the ground stripped entirely naked. Another example of the culture of the nation that Miss Beveridge so valliantly champions.

Bestial Deeds of Germans
Was it culture that caused the Germans to export homosexual girls from Belgium and northern France to Holminden, and there subject them to every immoral indignity that they possibly could? Only the most attractive were chosen for this particular camp. It seems that the officers who were stationed there were of more than the average rank, and they desired that their victims should come to them as unsullied as possible. The favorite practice of these men was to atlin the women naked

As for the impossible charges against the French black troops, made by the Beveridge woman, it is best to let the report of the committee of eminent Germans who assisted in the investigation of the charges answer her. They said: "The black troops are held in

Now, a word as to the status of the Colored man in the French army. All Colored men natives of the mainland of France, of Guadalupe, Martinique, Reunion Islands, and Senegal are French citizens, boasting all rights and liable to all duties deriving from said citizenship, and therefore subject to the military obligations devolving upon all Frenchmen. So ran the law, as a principle, 1848, but these regulations were not applied up to the last war, although the natives of these colonies clamored through the voice of their deputies in the French parliament to be allowed to share the honor and burden of military service. Even after the outbreak of the war the colonial natives underwent no compulsory conscription. Nevertheless, they enlisted in great numbers as volunteers.

flocked to defend France on French soil, a France that was to them a far fabulous country, on soil they had never seen.
Although only depending on voluntary enlistments, this mode of recruiting gave 32 battalions between 1914 and 1918, and official statistics credit the Senegalese region with over 200,000 volunteers, out of which more than 150,000 have been under fire. Such a result is one that the whole Race may justly take pride in.

To quote a few extracts from the Official Register: "On April 16, 1917, the French rushed the 'Chemin des Dames'. The 10th colonial division, composed of Senegalese, received orders to stand at any price. They stood. On that streak of shellplowed ridge they stormed and retrieved under a fearful bombardment and a deluge of pelting rain. 'A special homage,' says the official report, 'must be paid to these Senegalese troops. These brave men, half buried in mire on their line of fire, suffering untold agony in their shoes from frozen feet, their accountrements and rifles encrusted with icey mud, have without finching to their position, awaiting relief or death,

Another dispatch says: "The 66th Senegalese battalion has blocked the passage of the river Marne, and stemmed the advance of the enemy, who was crying 'Victory!' On May 31 and June 1, 1918, the same battalion defended inch by inch the suburbs of Chateau-Thierry, doing fearful havoc in the ranks of the enemy, and covering themselves with glory." These encomiums are culled from the Official Register, containing thousands of similar complimentary dispatches, the annals of the Colored troops of France shining amongst the rest with a dazzling brightness.
Brave Algerians
When the war broke out, France possessed two Algerian divisions: Tragic indeed in the history of these two divisions. The men went into a hell of fire untested, and they truly proved their worth. The Second division, which reached the front first, came into contact with the enemy at Rheims, about the last of September, 1914. The thunder of the big guns seemed only to arouse them, and the carriage left them unperturbed. From Rheims they were sent to Arras. In this sector, on Nov. 3, the division attacked "on ground as bare as a billiard table, cut every 50 yards by canals five yards in width and two yards deep." For three days and three nights the division went forward under a frightful fire of artillery, infantry and machine guns; wading canal after canal; wet to the skin; decimated by the terrific hull of projectiles, and ended with a superb attack at 5 a.m., in which the whole front line was mowed down by the last German fire, those behind rushing forward and taking the German trenches after a furious body to body struggle. So the Second division of Algeria died on the field of honor.
The end of the First division was equally as dramatic. It happened at Dixmude. With them fought the Senegalese. On November 10 they were defending, with the Belgian troops on the left, and the cemetery of Dixmude on their right, the allied trenches, which were furiously attacked. The roaring field gray tide poured suddenly upon them from the flanks. Two solutions faced them, to surrender or die at their posts. They chose the latter.
An extraordinary scene began. The madness of battle had seized the black soldiers; the intoxication of self-immolation. The mysterious call of their African blood was heard and heartkened to, and an elemental power, born of the burbaric life of the wilderness, lifted them above themselves. They roared forth to the amazed enemy their fury, hatred and contempt. A hundred African dialects fused into a savage and unintelligible harmony. A vast chant of war and death, it rose and grew, became formidable, terrible, dominating all the battle, a funeral paean of the

black warriors. And when the gray tide struck them they rushed forward striking, killing, dying. The German troops could not finish them. The German commanders ordered machine guns brought up, and from a distance of 50 yards mowed them down. Under the volleys the fierce hymn of war died away, and silence came. But history echoes with it still.
These are the type of men that France is asked to treat as slaves. Asked to remove her protecting arm from around. These are the men whose glory a certain class of Germans and Americans have tried to sully. Owing to the racial prejudice and hatred so rampant in the United States, these inexperienced character have found a certain amount of credence. But investigations have proven that there has been nothing in their accusations but low calumny. Blocks Foreign Offices.
Black French Officers
Now to pass on to officers of the French army who are not white. I will mention first that numbers of Colored men have risen to the rank of generals, which is contrary to the practice in the United States. As we well know, Colonel Charles Young was the highest ranking Race officer in the States, and only received the grade of colonel after enormous pressure had been brought to bear upon the administration and the military authorities. He was not permitted to go overseas, as it would have then been necessary to have given him the rank of a brigadier general, as was done in the cases of other colonels. Such conditions are shameful, and are the result of the racial prejudice existing in the United States.
But several instances clearly evince that for years and years past racial prejudice has been nonexistent in France. The French army boasts of hundreds of Colored officers, a few of whom have risen to the highest rank in the service, that of general. Some of these have passed through the special military academies, in company with the flower of the youth of France. Some of France's higher officers who deserve especial mention are General Dumas, the father of the world-wide known romancer, Alexander Dumas. Another who is particularly eminent in the annals of the French army is General Dodds. France is proud of him and his name is to this day reverenced throughout the republic. Then are Colonels Lecamus
A significant pamphlet on "Mob Mind vs. Civil Liberty" has just been published by the American Civil Liberties Union to show the causes of mob violence and the suppression of free speech. The pamphlet consists of extracts from a book on "Behavior of Crowds," by Everett Dean Martin, director of the Cooper Union Forum of the People's Institute of New York city. In introducing the pamphlet the Civil Liberties Union says: "In the pandemonium of propaganda in which we are living this picture of our thinking should serve the cause of tolerance. We commend the point of view equally to radicals, conservatives and liberals."
Some of the striking statements in Dr. Martin's study follow: "We are a veritable E簿 of gibbering crowds. Not only are mob outbreaks and riots increasing in number, but every interest, patriotic, religious, ethical, political, economic, cially degenerate, intoxicated, propposed, distracted into extravagant participation and intemperance. The effect of all this upon the individual is that he is permitted neither to know nor to belong to the crowd. He becomes a mere banner toter. "Upon the social peace the effect is equally bad. Unnecessary and meaningless strife is engendered. An endless silly game of bullying and deception is carried on among contending crowds, national, religious, moral, social. "The leader in crowd-thinking par excellence is the daily newspaper. With few exceptions our journals emit hardly anything but crowd ideas. These great molders of publication are characteristic of the vulgar mong orator.
"Every crowd is potentially if not actually homicidal in its tendencies. The projection of this hatred on those who are homicidal is to shield the subject from the consciousness of his own hatred, as to provide him with a pretext-for exercising his hatred. The pretext for homicides will display their homicidal tendencies quite openly.
Wars of Self-Defense
"The classic example of the killing crowd is, of course, a nation at war. There are, to be sure, wars of national self-defense which are due to political necessity rather than to think it is necessary, and such cases the phenomena of the crowd are likely to appear to the detriment of the cause. At such times not only the army but the whole nation becomes homicide crowd. And the extent to its pervasiveness the extent that its people may be made to think and behave as a crowd. Once a crowd, it is always in the right. The incessant haired of the crowd is that directed toward the heretic, the nonconformist, the traitor. I have

U. S. Refuses Race Men
G. S. Herrets Race Men
Race men in the United States are refused admittance in the United States marine corps, and the highest rating possible for them to achieve in the naval service is that of wardroom steward. This rank corresponds with that of headwaiter in a hotel. There may be one or two isolated cases of a Race man becoming a petty officer, say, for instance, paymaster's clerk or something of that order, but they are few and far between. As for ensigns, lieutenants, captains, commanders, etc., nothing doing. The higher ranks are for the white man and for him only.
This is the condition that certain citizens of this country seek to bring about in France. It is their belief that the Colored man in that country has too much freedom, he must be hampered in his activities. All this in view of the fact that the white soldiers and sailors who have fought side by side with their dark comrades vie with each other in extolling their bravery and patriotism, their acuteness and bright temper. This is the condition that Miss Beveridge and Mrs. Britten would like to see brought to bear in France, the one democracy of the world. And to do this they extend a propaganda supported upon a foundation of Iles. The more credulous of the United States may give car, but will France? No. a thousand times no. The French nation places these men so far above calumny that the lying sigma placed upon them by these people will have no effect. The two years that American troops stopped in France taught the French people a great deal about America. And it will take a lot more than a Beveridge or a Britten to destroy the implicit confidence they have in their black cousins.

The Crowd Mind
"The crowd mind is seen at its best and at its worst in revolution, new crowd. A true revolution occurs when the difference between the dominant crowd and the one which supplants it so great that to prey on it requires physical threat. In most cases the abuses, the existence of which a revolutionary crowd uses for propaganda purposes, are in turn it becomes dominant.
"A revolution occurs when the dominant crowd begins to weaken. I think we find proof of this in the psychology of revolutionary propaganda, which is made in a day. Each such cataclysm is preceded by a long period of unrest and propaganda of opposition to the existing order and its benefaction among conservative crowds to hasten their own downfall by the manner in which they deal with revolutionary propaganda. The seriousness of this issue is less in the crowd seeks to draw attention back to the old issue which it fought and won years ago in the hour of its ascendancy. The crowd-group contains in itself in the very nature of itself in things which sooner or later lay it low.
"It is a significant fact that a crowd's rule is generally challenged in the name of the very abstract ideas of which has long posed as the basis for democracy. Every crowd demands it when it is seeking power; no crowd permits it when it is in power. In general, then, it may be said that where the crowd is, there is tyranny. In general, then, it may be said that one agent or through many, but it nearly always comes from the same source—the crowd.
"No ;;ranny was ever for long maintained by force. All tyrannies had been forced to accept unceremoniously accepted. Democracy in America falls of freedom, not because of our political constitution, though that would doubtless be modified by a people who were more free to opinion, intellectual alertness, critical thinking about fundamentals, is not encouraged."

Don't pet and coddle, nurse or “doctor” such-nunning joy killers. Banish them quickly, painlessly, forever with “GETS-IT”
Not only hard corns or soft corns but every kind of corn or callus surrender to "Gels-It" and peels right off. It takes just a few seconds to stop the pain with two or three drops. Bold where eyes of drugs are sold. Get a bottle of "Gels-It." Your money back if it falls to peel them off. Used by millions. So a bottle. E. Lawrence & Co. Mrs. Chicago, Ill.
