GROCERYMEN GET BUSINESS HINT The spirit of Christmas descended upon the Associated Business club luncheon Thursday noon, Dec. 20, and pervaded the atmosphere so thoroughly that under the deft and genial guidance of Jesse Binga, who presided, all thought of a discrimination in local business places was tabled for the present and attention was focused upon the subject. "Why the group does not patronize Race business more fully," J. H. Hutton of the Wave company led off with an earnest little talk in which he argued that too often the buyer does not think. "Perhaps I want a cigar," he said, "and a fellow member's store is a block away, while right before me is the establishment of his competitor, I draw through the door because I want a cigar, and I fail to think of the value of walking that block to my compatriots' store. And again, too often we do not study the other fellow's methods enough. Our process, for example, should watch the daily quotations, so their competitors cannot take advantage by advertising policies a cent cheaper." "So often," said Carey B. Lewis, hotel proprietor, "we are impelled to group because they are not effectively brought to our attention; but we are turned the pages of the local weeklies. I saw a quarter-page advertisement of one of our merchants which minded to buy myself a Christmas present there. Our merchants should advertise, so on through the entire list of those who rose to voice their opinions—George Lorter, known as the spokes on competition in the drug business; J. Turner Wall of the Opal company; and Walter Abernathy, the Coal company. He stressed the need of "studying the business in which you come into your office and be able to tell you anything about your own business. Know it yourself," quoth M. "The club will omit its meeting next Thursday, Dec. 27, because of an announcement," but this is the last time we will miss meeting, even for a holiday," he said. "We need to meet the members of the splendid spirit alive, so we may be carried over the top in our effort to build bigger and better Negro business." A number of new members were presented and a list of the commemorations membership read by Miss Ethel Garvin showed a surprising variety. The new meeting will be held at 11 a.m. A the first Thursday in the new year.

SENDS RAIDING SQUAD TO FIND DESERTED WIFE Jealousy Arises in Man Who Cast Mate Aside; Thought Another Had Stolen Love. Following a raid by the Stanton Ave. police on an apartment at 335 Calmett Ave., on complaint of a jealous husband alleged to have deserted his wife, Mrs. Christine Horton, Mrs. Alberta Stevens and Ben Duplesis, all of the Calmett Ave. address, were taken to the house. The three were booked on a charge of disorderly conduct. An added charge of adultery was preferred against Mrs. Stevens and Duplesis. To this charge the woman's husband, Samuel Stevens, now residing at 3354 Rhodes Ave., was complainant. When the whys and whereforces were explained, it developed that after a five-year more less stormy winter, the wife was not a wife. She was not to have declared he didn't want her and was going away. He disappeared a month ago leaving his wife in straitened circumstances, according to John Holland, 3515 Calmett Ave. Mrs. Stevens went to work. Duplesis became friendly with her and a frequent visitor at her home and was soon able to get her home. Her morning he has seen his wife and her friend leave together from her home on their way to work, and each evening saw them return. This convinced him that Duplesis had taken his place and was living with Mrs. Stevens at the Calmett Ave. address. She was a well-known couple who failed. When they appeared in the Morals court, the evidence to sustain the charge of adultery against them was insufficient. They were discharged after Mrs. Stevens' attorney questioned the husband regarding a statement he is alleged to have made to the警长, and if she wanted him she would have to work and take care of him.

THIS NEWSPAPER CONSISTS OF TWO SECTIONS-BE SURE YOU GET BOTH OF THEM THE WORLD BEFORE YOUR EYES JOY OF JAPANESE GIVEN FULL REIGN AT KOMPIRA GATE Writer Swept Through With Throng of Singing Folks Enroute to Shrine Swept by the throng through the narrow, crowded gate of the shrine of Kompira, the deity whose aldea is implored by the weary, waiting mothers of sons of the sea, I was carried back by the crowd and the dancing lastern light and the rhythmic beat of many drums to my first days in Japan, back through the still night air of May to that wonderland of misty, mountainous, blossoming Japan, writes Frank M. Hedges in the Christian Science Monitor. It was the night of May 10, the day of the month on which the enclave always held the temple, the streets of the Kompira, which stands near the corner that men of another day christened the Gate of the Tiger-Torn-no-Mon. The Gate of the Tiger-Torn-no-Mon is a home place. Month after month, when the 10th day and the 10th night had come, I passed by the shrine and the garish wayside stalls that lined the street. The shrine had I missed. This time I did. The crowd caught me in one of its sudden eddies, and as suddenly had swept me into the narrow human wooden gates of the shrine. To right and to left were gaily lighted stalls displaying even paper warriors and wooden gates of sinning tones, but how was it possible for anyone to stem that tide of human beings to buy of them? On through the narrow gates and wooden gates, the grounds we were carried, the clatter of wooden geta forming a dull undertone far shrill voles, cries of pleasure and the thump of temple A Reverent Crowd Before the main shrine the crowd was dense, but it was a reverent crowd. The incessant beat of the drums was heard. Above their monotonous rose the rattle of the brass bells, meant to catch the ear of the deity, and the steady clink of falling coins as they were pitched outward and downward by the worshipers. The note of the heavier drum broke on the air from a street theater, and the voice of a young acolyte was heard chanting as he replaced the fast dying tapers. Shinto priests, in white and the more brilliant robes of their faith, sold tiny bits of mochih in twisted slips of paper, and prayers and charms. Those who surbed forward from the gate paused before the shrine, clapping their hands and bowing for a moment in the silent prayer of the Shinto faith, or murmuring some Buddhist formula, for to them there was no distinction between the faith of ancient India. They were the common people. Blue and white kimono or the dark blue shirrush-hanter of the workman in the village, little more than a blue cloth coat and white, close-fitting trunks, behind which their bare, brown legs glistened in the light of the lanterns and tides of onions and of dakon, testimony of the simple life of the worshipers, lay heaped before the shrine. The laughter of the children in the tiny hands and reverently bowed fantastically clipped heads before the spirits that were gone. Turning from the shrine, the crowd and tiny hands are nearly streets and tiny bits of park, where laughter and where happiness held forth, red baloons with Dharma's face in white; great heaps of hard-bolled eggs; doll and books and strips of cloth were all on sale, each in a little night-side bench, beneath a blazing lantern, or the cruer, unkindly glare of the teacher, to stool teaching her three children how to sing for alms. Poor people, ricksha men and laborers, who work for daily hire, swept past, but many of them copper in her basket of foe straw. Like Our New Years The crowd, swelled and edded. At times the press was great; again there came a moment of free space. The seller of mechacas came to the center of a group, but the few students who were there lingered near the stalls of books. The chants of sellers and their fresh fish and radishes was strong. The red and white striped hunting of Japan lent color to the dingy streets and dark pine trees. The gates of the American embassy the crowd surged on, but there I turned, retraced my steps to a quiet, tiny park. My eyes were on the King, "remembrance of the visit of the Prince of Wales, came from some childish mouth harp. The winding walks of the quiet streets were a vain bench. Two men, who showed that they knew work, sat down beside me. Both had little towels, for both were going to bath. One of them only his dark blue coat, his naked, sturdy less protruding as he stretched them out and let his knees rest on the white gravel on the ground. Only his appered, then he to go, and so did I. Back to the glare and glitter of the tinsel ship I went, but the romance now had gone. Somehow, in that still monolithic way, I was canvassed. I saw the books and students, the balloons and the gay charms. Interesting-yes. They showed the life of a strange nation. Fascinating-yes. No doubt, this lure of love, the wit and the writing brushes, the queer boxes and the dwarf pine trees in pots; these fascinated me, but I felt their interest only as a child. I smelled the smells and the weird noises—they were the same, but I had changed. I halfed a passing 'ricksha, hoping thus to entice back the thrill that I had lost. It was a no-no on shoes and sights and sounds, was interesting. They had the interest of a race which sought to blend its culture with my own. The incongruous mixtures I saw dank back and disappeared. THE WEEK Hard Heads Mr. Creager, Point By Roscoe Simmons ACCORDING to H. G. Wells, master of clear, simple English, author of the book on universe and authority on anything and everything, unless Uncle Sam and England join hands, and unless Uncle Sam joins partnership, and will happen in this world. Although Mr. Wells is interesting, don't worry if the partnership isn't signed up. Nobody knows what will happen in this world anyhow. Do you know much of Mr. Wells? He is called "the wise man," and if anybody is it is Mr. Wells. He owns his books, recently printed, make up a university education if read by THINKING men. They are, "The Outline of History" and "A Short History of the World." These books and read them carefully one page at a time. Don't skip, as most people do, from an uninteresting paragraph to an interesting paragraph. That interesting line or sentence may prove to be the milk in the cocoa-nut. Mr. Wells says the advent of Abyssina, a COLORED nation of all of Nations, "must surely fill the citizens of the United States with curious admiration." Everybody knows the weak point about our white people. Too bad Mr. Wells thinks it a low-down shame to shut door of the League in the United States and paint "Welcome" over it when Abyssina knocks. Three or four years ago our white people had you thinking that Germany was the low-down shame. Lasse week Mr. Hughes acknowledges of planning to fly the plane to the White House. Step lively if you want to keep up with our white people. First and last, unless they make a change, the world will have them stepping lively. That means you also, for you are, to work with them. Any other idea Your business is not to oppose our white people, but to reform them. While there's life there's hope. Down with the League of Nations, says Mr. Wells. He is late, is he not? So is Mr. Hirsch Johnson. The G.O. P. argue Uncle Sam will drop the条款 to the table of 740,000 votes and voices in 1829. Many of you took a hand. With Uncle Sam and John Bull in an English speaking alliance, and France taken care of the papers, then thanks. Mr. Wells would be relieved of the "nightmare dream" of "La France Negre." The cat is out of the bar. Mr. Wells doesn't want France to become "Negro." Newly on the map, Mr. Wells, although you can let France will never drop her Colored people, millions of them, for any "alliance." France was out on one lone and somebody sawed it off. Never again, says Palmeau. If any nation is to be feared because of its Negro element, watch Uncle Sam. His Colored children, Mr. Wells, keep a keeper of the world, Uncle Sam, Mr. Wells keeps one eye on the refracted stone. Do likewise. PERHAPS you overlooked the item that Clark Howell, great Georgia editor, benefactor of his section, made. Mr. Howell is the revelling exercises of the Joel Chandler Harris memoirs. Mr. Howell is editor of the Atlanta Constitution. The name Howell in Georgia ranks with other famous Georgia names, Lamar, Tops, Hill, Stephens. Who made the Young ladies and gentlemen may not be up on that answer, but they can be up on that knowledge and Grady woke the South up after the war and defined your status. You have been in hot water ever since, much for Mr. Howell. You will want to know of Joel Chandler Harris. Joel Chandler Harris may need a memorable name in the name he used to describe "Melisma Remus." "He put dialect in "Uncle Remus" mouth, many will say. So, he didn't do that. To be "Uncle Remus" he had to talk like "Uncle Remus" as well as think like him, imagine all, imagine "Uncle Remus" alone did imagine. "Uncle Remus" told all his stories to a little white boy, but print gave them to all little boys. Progress did that. "Uncle Tom" and "Uncle Remus" are names used to poke fun with; to show dislike through. Get other names for that purpose. "Uncle Tom," born in Mrs. Stove's noble brain, was mainly bird and brave. "Uncle Remus," the man by which Joel Chandler Harris still lives, will always live, was sage, philosopher, novelist, poet, teacher. His language was perfect. His monument may be seen unveiled at Easton, Ga. His monument may be seen wherever little boys of all races listen for "Brer Rabbit" and "Brer Fox" to start an argument. WHAT to do with and about the Japanese keeps our courts back on the United States Supreme court. The Washington court, answering California, tells the Japanese that they can't own land in the Golden state. They can own it in Mississippi, says the Supreme court here, says that court. Don't pass up the Mississippi court lightly. For more than half century it has been the United States Supreme court turned it down. Its judges know neither race nor creed. See again the difficulty of running a government on our plan. Forty-six years later the United States Supreme court must answer each state as they come up. Although they come up about the same matter. Don't worry as to how this will work out. Worry about being in it, let it work out one way or the other. Jump from California to Hawaii and, behold, the Japanese are there to worry Uncle Sam. Uncle Sam woke up Japan about the same time Lincoln gave you sleep on. Perhaps he wishes now that he had let Japan sleep on. Hawaii belongs to us, as you know. What great American greedy man, the benefactor of your greatest success, was born in Hawaii? The Hawaiians are dying out. American-Hawaiians are coming along fairly well, while the Japanese are running out with the island. Right behind the Japanese are the Filipinos, who are Americans, to let them tell it, by compulsion. Japanese make up 40 per cent of the population, 28,580. Another figure will interest you. 'Out of 13,137 births in one year, the Japanese claim 5,689 with only 1.645 deaths. No wonder Uncle Sam sleeps with one eye on the Pacific ocean. Americans want the Hawaiian legislature to follow California and pass a law prohibiting Japanese from owning Hawaii. They will have to hurry to do this. The Hawaiian legislature called itself rising to the situation in passing a law compelling Japanese children to attend school. Two or three hours a day Japanese children will learn from American teachers how great we are, what wonderful man Uncle Sam is, how the "entbattled farmers" fred the shot "heard and the world" ate. The rest of the day they may go to Japanese schools and unlearn it all. "Don't believe half you hear," Japanese teachers will tell their children. Blood is thicker than water, and Japanese children will remember the words of their own flesh and make faces at the red, white and blue. Hawaii, the Phillipines, Porto Rica, Cuba, Haiti, Santo Domingo, and so on, including the Virgin Islands—when the world gets the U. S. A. where it wants us, the fireworks will begin. Watch, listen, and don't talk too soon after those abusing you will run towards you, crying "Help; help." THE daily press prints a dispatch from Florence, Ala., saying that Wilson Price, non-write, fell 110 feet, landing on his head on solid rock. He got himself together. Doctors looked him over and said he was in good shape except for a fractured skull. The Lord temps the wind to the shorn lamb and gives Price's race stout hearts and hard heads. Deep hearts you would die of despair. If you had soft heads you couldn't last long, as many rocks Mr. Wells Alarmed "Uncle Remus" Now Hawaii --- --- (1) (2) (3) --- --- crying help help Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY as you hit or as hit you. One kind of hardheadness means you think you know it all. Hard heads like Price's can stand a lot. YOU are following the Mayfield case most likely. Be sure you see when the writer told you how hikings would turn out. Almost to a T they won't just as this writer told you they would go. Mr. Mayfield got his seat was sworn in. Protests were read and testimony weighing many points hardly worth an outrage. He had offered to the committee on privileges and election," said the president pro tem. Spencer of Missouri succeeded Dillingham as chairman of that committee. Mr. Creager, Republican national committeeman from Texas, a job once held by the greatest Texas Creager, Glen Cushman. The Creager wants Mr. Peddy of Houston to have Mr. Mayfield's seat. The Klan elected Mayfield. Mr. Creager tells the Klan that the majority of Texas were clued out of their rights. Very bad, if true. The Senate finds the Klan question a poker hit at both ends. Nobody there wants to handle it. Republicans of Texas will protest Mr. Creager at Cleveland when his delegation presents its credentials. They will say to Mr. Adams: "Mr. Chairman, Mr. Creager luked loyal Republicans. Mr. Creager will turn defendant. Makes a lot of difference whose ox is gored, does it not? No committee on privileges and elections at Cleveland, where the Republican fine lawyer, a U. S. district attorney now, must face the music. Since Colored men restored the representation of Texas in the national convention Mr. Greager may say to his followers, "What a sight will be at the overall night of the New York City Colored Men gave us what we would be fighting them about." Then everybody would bury the hatchet. A Ku Klux Republican is in the same boat with a Ku Klux Democrat. What is sauce for goose is sauce for the gander, as Mr. Greger knows. READ behind the debate now going on between the fundamentalists and the modernists, but pay but little attention to what is said. Arguing about religion is old as the world. Some have argued against it, and who've down below, while others have argued against and got a seat in the charter. Our white people know all things earthly but on heavenly matters, follow them to far, then quit. The fundamentalist and modernist argument? you ask yourself. A FUNDAMENTALIST believes everything in the Bible, I for I and I for I. He believes that Christ was born as is said of Him, of Mary and through the Spirit of God. MODERNIST believes only what he can reason through. He holds that you don't have to believe Christ is the Son of God either to be a Christian or to heven. The argument came to a head in the New York debate. On one side was John Roach Stratton, Baptist and fundamentalist. On the other side, Doctor Potter, Unitarian and modernist. The question was "Resolved, that The judges gave the argument, to Stirton but the points to Potter. This writer waded through the debate and said that he would not be said. Nothing new can be said on that question. Two more sessions of the debate will be held. Still nothing new will be said. Potter would have learned so many mottoes of science and are in possession of so many catch words of theology that they can't make a direct statement. The ablest debater that ever lived is Paul. Reading Paul is turned to Paul for light. Reading Paul is like going to a well of pure water with an empty pitcher. Matters got so hot in the Episcopal church that the bishops begged the brethren to stop fighting until after Christmas. Looking down from heaven we will say: Look at my children, fighting over faith, when they that faith without works is as shiva without water." Against this turmil stands the Catholic church, building him, and having the right to boast, that as Peter was born. As soon as the war opens again, watch Colored preachers get into it, some crying "I am a modernist," "I am a fundamentalist." Then business will pick up. "What if men take to FOLLOWING where He leads, Weary of mumbling Athanasian creeds?" No doubt as to our white people having religion. Getting them to use it every day is something else. Mr. SLEMP goes South. Doubtless the secretary to the president stopped in Virginia his home state. So, he was told to start his business to go to the South. Some say Mr. SLEMP has gone South for one thing, some say for another. The wise secretary keeps his business to himself. "I won't do," he said of Mr. SLEMP when the president announced the Virginian as his secretary. Old line Republicans said that. Now you hear this from the lily whites: "Slemp, why he certainly won't do." But he said, "I'm a well-developed group that will develop you that Mr. SLEMP might surprise you. It's a kindness and support have really shocked you. Too good to be true, you hear on all sides." I'm writing a strange bedfellows. Look at SLEMP and the Old Guard. Then take a look at Coolidge and Ford. Maybe Mr. SLEMP will tell the southern states not to come to Cleveland just of contest. This one is the old them. Also he might tell lily whites Republicans in those states that the only way to keep down contests is to quit trying to have a Republican party in the South with the other party. I shut down the South. Colored Republican North backing up white Republicans, trustees of the U.S. A., will watch the lilies and listen for a word from Mr. SLEMP. Mr. SLEMP is a organization in Georgia, the Collier-Kuntz organization in Louisiana, the Howard-Mullinville organization in Mississippi will help Mr. SLEMP in Texas, Alabama and Florida Mr. SLEMP and the president will have to speak frankly with the gentlemen. Never mind about Arkansas. Mr. Remmel ancient friend to ancient Republicans, declared himself. ALL Republicans in Arkansas, will take communion together in the future. He will see Mr. Phillips while visiting Georgia. Have you forgotten Mr. Phillips? Mr. Phillips hasn't forgotten you. He discussed you excitedly and interestingly in the Raleigh hotel. Washington, recently. Mr. Skip, Mr. Phillips that about discussion. Then the question, Henry Lincoln Johnson might come up for a talk. Hurry back, Mr. Skip. HOW did you come out with crops this year? How was your corn? wheat? potatoes? What did you do with corn? Did you market any fruit? What about cotton? Study these figures and turn them over in your mind. Do you keep any books? Many farmers don't put down coat. They leave that to the storekeeper. As long as you don't keep your own figures, you will come out behind. Study these figure: Acres planted this year were 350,698,100, the biggest acreage yet. The corn crop is 350,698,100, the 19,133,000. Spring wheat came to $181,675,000, while wheat came to $181,675,000. Potatoes measured in at $393,222,000, and tobacco in the leaf brought $282,936,000. Cotton is king and you are king in its production. The cotton figures: 10,081,000 bales valued at $1,563,247,000. Enough money to go around. Were you in the cotton? Keep your eye on fruit. A big, paying market waits on all the fruit that can be raised. Go in for fruit, perimeter, or center. The larger and bigger. Apkins brought $201,130,000; pairs sold at $31,000,000; while the peach crop brought $644,030,000. Keep your ear to the ground as to your "rights" etc, but don't forget the soil, the earth. The Bible says that the earth is full of the riches of the earth. Nobody can draw the Color line against the earth. Religious Debaters Mr. Slemp Travels Crops and Figures --- --- HEALTH SURVEY TELLS NEED IN MEDICAL FIELD Dean Ballock of Howard Says Woeful Lack of Physicians Endangers Our Health Washington, D. C. Dec. 21 "General belief that the Negro always is blessed with sound teeth is false," he said. "The school of medicine of Howard university, declared in a recent address, After more than 50 years' study of the race is afflicted with dental tils. Dr. Bailock's statement is in line with his plea that more men and women are trained on dentalists and dentists. statistics show that white citizens have one physician to every 533 of them, while the Colored Race only has one to every 1,000 of them. The dentist to every 1,000, while there is only one Colored dentist to every 20,500 Colored people, and that nurses about the same ratio as dentists: "Colored people," continues Dr. Bailock, "are prone to run after false teeth, and the quacks of the medical profession, who find them easy prey and infest their neighborhoods." Diane Point is made by Dr. Bailock that it is highly important to white citizens that the health of our Race is improved by the dan- He said that there have been frequent cases where family physicians have been treated twice for the same disease and they investigated the habits and living conditions of domestic servants in the household and found the sources in them.

Calls for Endowments **Calls for Endowments** The Cardinal has little endowment, and its teaching force consists largely of those who have remained with the institution throughout the years because of humanitarian reasons. To develop this institution, the entire nation" concludes Dr. Ballock. "Howard is calling for new medical buildings and equipment to cost $720,000; facilities for a department of $100,000; a physician cost $100,000, and a medical endowment of $3,000,000." WEATHER BUREAU FOUNDED MORE THAN FIFTY YEARS AGO The United States was not the first country to establish a national weather forecasting service, although forecasting by means of telegraphic reports were probably those of Prof. Joseph F. Lippert in 1849. The first national forecasting service was established in France in 1855, as the result of an enlistment in 1854, a severe storm did much damage to the French and British ships in the Black sea. The French astronomer, also the carrier of the storm, made a study of this storm and came to the conclusion that, with the aid of telegraphic reports, its eastward movement had been predicted so that the disaster to the ships could have been averted. This idea led to the foundation of Fronterra meteorological station in 1858, this country the establishment of a similar service was frequently recommended by the official authorities and in 1860 the Fronterra meteorological station was established in the Cincinnati observatory. These experiments in weather forecasting were so successful that establishment of a national service, one of the principal duties of which was forecasting the weather. This service was also responsible for the corps of the army, but since the year 1890 it has been a branch of the United States department of agriculture. Three Tramps Meet Death in Crude Shelter Massillon, Ohio, Dec. 21.—Three men were killed and three seriously injured Sunday afternoon in a crash which they had taken shelter from a runstorm, collapsed. The men were "knights of the road" and therefore unknown in Massillon. The two men gave his name as Marvin Davis of Ralston, N. C., and the other two have not as yet been identified. In the hospital have identified themselves as Earl Snowberger (white) of Darian Center, N. Y., Walter Whitman of Ashland, Ohio, and John White of Massillon. The white man has a fractured skull and is not expected to live. FIRES AT WOMAN.

St. house and demanded admission McClain's sister refused to open the door. Sutter heard McClain's voice calling for help on the woman. He broke down the door and fired two shots at her it is alleged. Both struck the brother WOMAN. NINETY-EIGHT JUMPS FROM 2ND STORY Pittsburgh, Pa., Dec. 28—Mrs. Anna Lawson, 98, ended her life, according to the verdict of the coroner's jury. She was a long-time store window of the Home for Aged Negro Ministers and Laymen at 637 Monroe Ave., Bellevue. She was found with her skull fractured. She was taken to Tuesday and died in Suburban General hospital a few hours later. CRITICAL MOMENTS WHY JIM CROW IS FLYING NORTH BY W. O. SAUANDERS (An Published in Colliers. The National Weekly) (Continued from last week) The Negro is flocking North to high wages, entering industries that pay him $5 to $10 a day for his work—and pay him in cash. To get North and get these wages and educate his children, he is forsaking a laid that too often gives him only a pitiful dose of corn meal and sorghum, declares him a debtor still to the landlord after his work of a year is done, and as a rule provides only a three months' school term for his children. We southerners have tried to look ourselves into a belief that the Negro was forsaking the South to flee into a field of industry in which he could not compete. This is not true. The Negro is proving himself a more satisfactory labor worker than the lower class immigrants who have manned many of the more important industries. He is hard, enduring and dole—and he can understand orders given in English. If the Negro had not proved his work as a day laborer the North would not be sending for him and paying his transportation. Again, we have been fooling ourselves with a lot of talk about the hard conditions confronting the Negro in the North. Our newspapers are full of it. It is mostly twaddle I have seen Negroes swarming in the most crowded districts in northern cities. But they are not worse than the cabins in which so many of these Negroes lived in the South. Have you ever seen a typical Negro cabin on a plantation in the Mississippi valley? It is usually only a diminutive board structure of two rooms, in which a family lives and sleeps. The common type of these cabins is called a "shotgun house," because of its single-barrel construction. The deep sleep in these cabins is next to impossible. When it rains the water often pours through the roof. I have never seen one of these cabins, but I have seen small farms have I seen windows other than a near-tight wooden shutter. Compared to these, the squirrel-like mammal in the skies. The roofs of the city tenements do not leak; snakes and lizards and insects do not crawl up through the crevices. It is not unusual for an illiterate black man and his family to work for a landowner for a year, grow a cow and permit him to grow no corn because he could steal the corn or appropriate a bit of it for his food. He can have no pig or cow must have grain or the scraps from a kitchen. There are no scraps from the poor Negro's kitchen. In a year, he would have 20, 30 or more bales of cotton. He and his wife and children's pick this cotton in the fall and carry it to the garden and it is pressed into a product of his labor over to the landlord and awaits a settlement. Sometimes the landlord says at the end of the year that Negro's good this year; you raised a good crop and you owe me only $40". For a year that Negro and his whole family constrain him to corn meal. This time they have lived on limited rations bought at the commissary owned by the plantation owner. The rations constrain him to corn meal. And at the end of the year the Negro is told he is in debt. He cannot challenge the white man's law. He suffers in slaves' own law because his own does not know how. He dares not appeal to the law, because the law is the white man's law. He suffers in slaves' own law because the law cones he steals away in the night. In the North he finds a city that provides a year-round school term for his children a community center for his students and a pennyary to give him drugs when he is THE WHITE MAN'S WORD sick and penniless, a public-health nurse and hospital care when he needs them and a dozen helpful agencies to which he can turn in emergency. I have before me a bill of complaint drawn up by Negroes in a mass mea-sure, giving the reasons why they are leaving the South. It starts with the statement that "the Negro feels that his life may be taken with impunity at any time by a white man. * * The Negro has generally despatched or right as a citizen in this section." The document goes on to particuliare, laying emphasis upon the fact that Negroes have opportunities. He complains of the fact that for every $20 spent for the education of white children in the institution of the Negroes; of the so con- consolidated schools in Mississippi, all are for whites; of 30 and odd agricultural workers; of one for Negroes; and there is not a dollar for the tubercular, for the fee-minded, for the blind or for the bereaved, for youth, though millions are on welfare. The complaints made by the Negroes of Mississippi are typical of the complaints made by Negroes in other southern states. And yet one seldom hears mention of the Ku Klux Klan by the Negro. The Kluckers are the least of his troubles. The fact of organized black resistance in the past pillow cases makes little difference to him. He was lynched before the night shirt and the pillow case were thought of. Only the best class of Negroes in the southern over the Ku Klux. The better class of Negroes see in the organization a sinister agency further to estrange the whites and the blacks in the southern settlements. I may come to that later. I have indicated the immediate effect of this wholesale exodus of southern Negroes upon the agriculture and effect upon the North? What of its effect upon the moral, social and economic progress of the Negro in America? These are questions which require consideration and answer once if the peace of the nation and the personality of the Afro-American is to 13 preserved. The North is temporarily profiting by the shift of Negroes to itself with a race problem in its hands that is as alarming as the race problem of the Potomac. WITH RULES REVERSED The Negroes attracted to the North in this and recent years are largely from the lowest classes. They are often emotionally, highly gregarious and grossly ignorant. They have been fed upon wild tales of equality, and they have experience hitherto unknown freedom and social privileges. The unschored Negro fresh from the South in his chine politicians, who make him extravagant promises which they never intend to fulfil. In the South a white man will put himself out to befriend an individual Negro. In the North the unpuffed of the Negro as a class, but he will put himself out to befriend an individual Negro. In the North his children may sit side by side with his wife and his wife are shoved aside as rudely in white hotels, theaters and restaurants as in the South. He finds his life in the North more confusing than in the South to believe that the attitude of the North is more broad and tolerant of the South. He finds that the far from being true—and the North far from being true—and the North had enough experience with the South. He finds that he can solve him and place him. Left to himself, he will work out a place for himself; fanatical leaders often misinform and infame his imagination. The race problem is no longer a local problem left to the South to handle, but it is a problem for the metropolitan centers of the North, and if I mistake not the signs and temper of the time the North is going to be in, it does not interest itself immediately. ... NATION'S MOST VALUABLE CROP IS GOLDEN CORN Cotton Ranks Second, With Hay the Only Other Crop Passing Mill Mark Washington, Dec. 28.—Larger acre yields and better prices generally of most of the important farm crops of the country, combined with an increase of about 600,000 acres in the aggregate planted area, lifted the total value of this year's crops $872,591,000 above last year. The value of this year's crops was placed at $8,322,695,000 by the department of agriculture in its final crop report of the year. The values were based on the farm price of the crops on Dec. 1. Corn is the nation's most valuable crop with a total value of $2,222,013. Cotton ranks second with an average of $1,698,365,000, the value of the lint being $1,563,347,000 and of cotton seed $205,837,000.

Dec. 25—Prohibition agents are not civil officers in any strict or constitutional sense. Federal Woodruff law requires a declaration in a court opinion.

Judge Woodruff held that approval of the warrants was necessary for the actions of federal dry agents by the commissioner of internal revenue had no authority.

MONEY ORDER PRAISES PRESS FOR PART TAKEN IN RAGE UPLIFT Youth Movement Pays Honor to Newspaper for Work in Racial Progress Washington, D. C., Dec. 21.—Observation of the part played by the press in the progress of the nation in the past two decades, known as the American Federation of Negro Students, to issue an informal statement lauding the past present-day achievements of our press. Co-operation, one of the purposes fostered by the movement, is one of the many who have made millions among those whose papers have been published throughout the country. A statement from one who has been a close student of our press for the past few years is one of the most important growth and development of business enterprises and other assets of the Race cannot fail to give great credit to the progress of economic, social, religious and political well-being of the nation. Its contribution to the creation and the development of the consciousness has been very noteworthy. "The Howard university and the Lincoln university football game are the greatest success the press as a powerful factor in progress and development. Six years ago the game between these two institutions interested to the public. Beginning with 1916 and 1920 powerful weekdays in New York and Chicago began to grow. The greatest social and athletic event of the Race. Its success then became a surety. To the press of the country, the University of Chicago and Dixon line, belongs the greater part of the credit for this and numerous other activities throughout the country. "Along with the school and the church, the press of the Race must be included as a third and important development of the Negro in America."

Short StorieS$ THE STORY OF EUCLID *Today* George Wells Packer has a few centuries to tell the story of the boulder that is supposed to be the world. When you have graduated from school, you will become acquainted in your second year with a study known as geometry. You will find geometry rather difficult at first, because all of us who have studied geometry are doing your home work, you will wish that geometry would sink to the bottom. You may even sometimes say that it seems to be the most foolish and use- ful subject, but not so. Geometry is a very important subject and, we might say, it is one of the most important known. When you stop to think that all our houses, great buildings, bridges, roads, streets, houses, parks, distances between worlds are beautiful, it will begin to realize that it be a very important subject indeed. You will begin to realize that it must be a very important subject indeed. No man or woman can ever become a great carpenter or engineer without knowing of straight lines, curves and angles. Now the man who discovered this sel- ence was an African and his name was Bob. We don't know just where he was born, except for the fact that he probably in the northern part. He lived somewhere about 300 years before the revolution. When he was made professor of mathematics at Alexandria, Egypt, in when he was made professor of mathematics at Alexandria, Egypt, in at that time, was the very center of the world's culture and knowl- sage.

We don't know just what Euclid did before he was made a professor of mathematics. He received the appointment he was able to give more time to study and to become one of the greatest mathematicians to world. It was the custom of kings to pay good salaries to scholars and not to pay them. Among his students was King Ptolemy himself. It is related that the king barbarous way of learning mathematics proposed to study and one day he asked Euclid if there wasn't some less barbarous way of learning mathematics there was "no royal road to geometry." So the king had to study it just the same as the students in school today. He taught geometry and it is said that his school lasted until the Mohammadani conference. Students came from all over Europe to Alexandra to learn the science of home and build their cities. Of course, Enfield did not invent tortures before he lived. The Egyptians had discovered the elements of geomancy and those many wonderful temples and tombs which are still the last place they ever lost and it fell to the lot of a black man to re-discover the science of geometry and start studying geometry, do not become discouraged because it is hard. You must learn the science discovered by your ancestors, perhaps that will make it a little easier to realize what wonderful things in the world are due to the science which a man founded for the modern world.

MAJORITY RULE THE RECENT DEADLOCK in the organization national house of representatives furnishes serious thought and consideration on the position American people. The fundamental principle which our government was organized is that our government must submit to and abide by the decision majority whenever that decision is asserted brought about through methods prescribed for that purpose. IT IS TRUE that sometimes the known with authority defended a tough adhere with legal methods; still, to prevent revolution they must be adhered to and the reward to stand. In the presidential election in instance, the Democrats believed and asserteduel J. Tilden was elected president; but it is denied that the returning boards of Louis with Carolina and Florida were invested to go behind the returns from the cities and parishes to change the result were the while Hayes to instead the election. While in this may it be inadmissible, that the suppression of our vote in Mississippi in Also politic other three states would have been east for Head of Willem, thus making the former president was done in conformity to law it being. OURS IS NECESSARLY A PARTY GOVERNMENT; we operate through party machinery by organization. We do not vote directly, directly, for president and vice president, partisan or other, whether for president or electors. These electors are bound to vote for the candidate for whom he is elected, but they are in honor bound to do no one of them has ever voted for any candidate than the one for whom he was elected in such a case as happened in 1873, since Greeley, the Democratic candidate, between the date of the general election and the date of the president's election. These electors are chosen in the same way and bound by the code of honor. Those who are elected publicans, as well as those who are elected electocrats, are in honor bound to abide by position of the majority of their party associate matters pertaining to the organization and duties of their party. The recent revolt on the small minority of those elected as Republican, discusible and indefensible. These electors by the decision are too consecrated to others. THE RECENT DEADLOCK in the organization of the national house of representatives furnishes food for serious thought and consideration on the part of the American people. The fundamental principle upon which our government was organized is that the minority must submit to and abide by the decision of the majority, nevertheless that decision is necessary and brought about through methods prescribed by law for that purpose. IT IS TRUE that sometimes the known will of the majority is defeated through a rigid adherence to such legal methods: still, to prevent revolution and anarchy they must be adhered to and the results allowed to stand. In the presidential election in 1876, for instance, the Democrats believed and asserted that the return of the slaves happened that the returning boards of Louisiana, South Carolina and Florida were invested with authority to go behind the returns from the different counties and parishes and to reject the vote of any of them which, in the opinion of the majority of the board, was tainted with fraud. IN THE ENERGICISSE of the authority in this instance, the efficient number of counties and parishes to change the result were thrown out, thus giving Tilden, instead of Tilden, the electoral vote. While this may have been inequitable, it was legal. Again, in 1016 it is an undeniable fact that but for the suppression of our vote in Mississippi, Louisiana and South Carolina the electoral votes of those three states would have been east for Hughes instead of Wilson, thus making the former president; it was done in conformity to law it was binding. OURS IS NECESSARILY A PARTY GOVERNMENT; we operate through party machinery and party organization. We do not vote directly, but indirectly, for president and vice president. Political parties nominate and the people vote for and elect presidential electors. These electors are not legally bound to vote for the candidate for whom they are in honor to do so, and no one of them has ever voted for any other candidate than the one for whom he was elected except in such a case as happened in 1873, when Horace Greeley, the Democratic candidate, died between the date of the general election and the meeting of the presidential electors. SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES in Congress are in the same way and bound by the same code of honor. Those who are elected as Republicans, as well as those who are elected as Democrats, are in honor bound to abide by the decision of the majority of their party associates in all matters pertaining to the organization and discipline of their party. The recent revolt on the part of a small minority of those elected as Republicans is excessive and unjustified, and is in disportion. If they are too conscientious to abide by the decision they should resign and give their seats to others. A SLIGHT MISUNDERSTANDING WO LONG AND LOUD have southern wives told "We know the Negro and know best how to him" that they not only have convinced the-minded northerners of the truth of their belief, but they are actually beginning to believe themselves. In a broad sense nothing could be farther the truth as applied to the younger generation many of the older heads. The black man tells the man some and keeps some. Circumstances him to play a double role—to see and not to see. He is not the only man who BUT THE WHITE MAN is no enigma to the black man; he knows him better than the white man to know himself. This is why he is digging himself out of oppression. To illustrate: Labor agents, Kaddele, Miss, and Athens, Ga., were so busy several hundred families now living inigo back to the plantations that they chartered station to avail themselves of the free trade. THIS IS BUT ONE of many similar attempts to show that there is a slight misunderstanding. This futile attempt to check my passing illegal ordinances, by arrests, by acting and actual threatening of life only matters worse. There is only one way it can be of the southerners know that way. Pride of kind always goes before a fall, and their postonomically photophy shy ably. The a man the black man will soon be lost to them the exodus continues on the scale it has been most two years there will be few of the "problem manage. SO LONG AND LOUD have southern whites shouted, "We know the Negro and know best how to treat him," that they not only have convinced some feeble-minded northerners of the truth of their assertion, but they are actually beginning to believe it. They are beginning to believe that the truth as applied to the younger generation—and many of the older heads. The black man tells the white man some and keeps some. Circumstances force him to play a double role—to see and not to see, to hear and not to hear, to tell and keep some. The black man knows him better than the white man knows himself. This is why he is digging himself out of the hole of oppression. To illustrate: Labor agents from Clarkeide, Miss., and Athens, Ga., were so sure of carrying several hundred families now living in Chicago back to the plantations that they chartered a full train, to find less than a dozen "shifters" at station to avail themselves of the free transportation. THIS IS BUT ONE of many similar attempts, all tending to show that there is a slight misunderstanding somewhere. This futile attempt to check migration by passing illegal ordinances, by arrests, browbeating and actual threatening of life only makes matters worse. There is only one way it can be done, and the southerner know that way. Pride of the kind always goes with a full and their position economic uprising a fairly abound. The art of urging the black man will soon be lost to them, for if the exodus continues on the scale it has been for the past two years there will be few of the "problems" to manage. PAYING THE BILL IF IS SO EASY to go in debt and often so hard out of debt. We vote on the spur of the money expend millions from the public treasury, making that the money eventually comes out of pockets in the shape of assessments, taxes, soldiers' bonus will only cost $80,000,000 the first—a mere bagatelle. The then no account of $80,000,000 would represent the first year's interest. $10,000,000 per cent bond issue. MAY or may not be possible to cut tax burdens the time being and still pay out several billholders, but it is clear enough that soon or not taxes must be levied, no politician or also has to pay taxes of having our cake and eating it, no one beceived; if billions are paid ove veterans the rank and file of the taxpayers—which in the long run will include us—we way or another have to hand over the funds IT IS SO EASY to go in debt and often so hard to expend millions from the public treasury, forgetting that the money eventually comes out of our own pockets in the shape of assessments, taxes, etc. The soldiers' bonus will only cost $80,000,000 the first year—a mere bagatelle; but this takes no account of the cost of the second, third and subsequent years; $80,000,000 would represent the first year's interest on a $2,000,000 cent bond issue. THE TAX or may not be possible to cut tax burdens for the time being and still pay out several billions to soldiers. but it is clear enough that soon or later those taxes must be levied, for no politician or anyone else has yet found a way to make something out of nothing or of having our cake and eating it, too. Let no one be deceived: if billions are paid over to the veterans the rank and file of the taxpayers of the land—which in the long run will include us—will in one way or another have to hand over the funds. In every real sense the choice is between tax reduction and the bonus. HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENT of mob violence will never cure it. What is needed is not homoeo treatment, but home treatment.

BLONDS FLIRT and brunettes are constant, says a psychologist, who is right if he means brunettes are constant flirts. IN A HUMOROUS VEIN THE EDITOR of the self-styled "W. G. N.

We are spiritly and advise them to stick to what the serious in editorials; they are humble. THE EDITOR of the self-styled "W. G. N." evidently was suffering from a slight attack of "brainstormwitrus" when he dashed off a remarkable piece of copy labeled "Some Job." We use "remarkable" advisably, for it is remarkable how the paragraphs hold together when there is no connecting link between the two. This style may be the latest in journalism. It may be futurist stuff. It carries a pathetic srain of self-importance, which brings long to the eye of the alabaster Billiken, Mr. Arthur Brisbane, at whom the shot was fired, should feel himself highly honored to receive mention, good or bad, by such brilliant word painters. But let us quote: "ARTHUR BRISBANE says that the Jews are the greatest people on earth. He thinks the mother of Columbus had some Jewish blood and he knows that because Columbus was a Jew he had the courage to keep on into the night on the dark waning night. Mr. Ford is the greatest enemy of the Jews in this country. He makes a business of it and a very silly business, we think. "WHEN MR. BRISBANE has persuaded the Jews to vote for Henry Ford he ought to persuade the Kluxers to make Lee Shubert imperial wizard, get Georgia to elect Oscar D'Priest or Dr. Dullols governor, make Mr. Bryan president of the Society Opposed to Prohibition and Lucy Page Caston president IF MR. BRISBANE thinks the world is made of green cheese, newspapers, he certainly has a right to his own opinion and to give, with his employer's permission, publicity to his opinion. The compliment antagonism his attacks were not directed toward them as a mass, but to a certain financial class of them, so they might at that give the automobile wizard, should he run for president, a substantial share of their votes. WITH ETHERH DEar Dr. Persl or Dr. Dubois in the chair Georgia, would rise from the mine of barbarism and take its place with the Northern civilized states; in fact there is nothing within the gift of the American people that one of our number could not fill and creditably—we, even, could edit the wonderful daily in question—and that, in the language of the street, is "going some." We offer this as a mere suggestion to the reader to "stay sharp, and advise us to stick to what they deem the best in editorials; they are humorous enough. THE OLD AND THE NEW YEAR I IS WELL that hope does spring eternal at man for without hope life would be monotonic. We build our air castles on tomorrows, while the realities of today sweet yesterdays find place only in me New Year finds us as a group standing more solid foundation than we did even this ago. We have advanced intellect IT IS WELL that hope does spring eternal in the breast of man, for without hope life would be dreary and monotonous. We build our air castles in the golden tomorrows, while the results of today and of tomorrow are still unfolding. The New Year finds us as a group standing on a much more solid foundation than we did even twelve months ago. We have advanced intellectually, socially and economically so rapidly, and in spite of almost unsurmountable obstacles, that the favorable environment of entire civilized world has been directed toward us. WHEN IT IS RECALLED that within the memory of the present younger generation barely a tenth of our number had left the fields of cotton and sugar cane; that in 1010 there were 2,277,731 illiterates among us; that almost up to the time when the World war began the great doors of industrial plants, North, East and West were practiced against us. The war has been reduced to 22 per cent, our men and women can be found in every field of endeavor, and that we are beginning to be recognized as a powerful political factor, some idea can be formed of the progress we have made. YET WE ARE FAR from being egotistical or boastful; we realize that we have many mails post yet to pass before we can take our place in the sun. We are not quicker than we did those in the past, because we are physically, mentally and morally stronger. The Chicago Defender from its very inception, some seventeen years ago, has championed every just cause and claim the group which it represents has had. Reaching, as it does each week, every nook and corner in this country, North, South, East and West, it can readily be seen what a powerful influence the group has on the hostile way, but rather with pardonable pride for having been the means of spreading the light in dark places. WE ENTER THE NEW YEAR with plans that are bigger, better and more comprehensive than those put in effect during the past year. The Chicago office has a dedicated expansion of the people as a whole whom it represents. Without the loyal support of our subscribers and advertisers we could do nothing. So we wish to take this opportunity not only to wish each and every person a chance to hold us but to thank you for that sustained support. THE POWER OF FEDERAL PATRONAGE THE ASSERTION is frequently made by those who are not well informed that federal officials control the selection of delegates to the Republican national convention from southern states and that this is not true of northern states. Senator Henkel of Nebraska, a contributor of the delegation of the committee in allowing increased representation from the South, pointed to the alleged fact that the federal controlled delegations from the southern states was a contributory cause of the split in the party in 1912. Senator Henkel also exhibited his lack of information on matters pertaining to that particular period. That federal patronage is a potential factor in the choice of delegates to a national convention cannot be denied; but when it is asserted that it is more effective in one section than another, the same is not borne out by the facts. The primary cause of the party disruption in 1912. IN THE PRE-CONVENTION PRIMARY of that year Roosevelt not only swept the state as a whole, but he carried every congressional district in the state except one. In comparison with the shrewd federal officials some of the Roosevelt managers were political novices and allowed themselves to be generalized in their views. In the state of Delaware were outspoken Taft men, but under instructions to vote for Roosevelt. As honorable men they intended to live up to and faithfully carry out their instructions, but their instructions did not obligate them to vote for a Roosevelt organization; so they joined the anti-Roosevelt men in the organization of the convention so as to make the nomination of Roosevelt impossible even with their votes. If the state of Delaware had voted for a Roosevelt organization, Roosevelt instead of Taft would have been nominated. THE SAME THING was practically true of Maryland, Indiana and Ohio, with the result that contesting delegates were seated from the state of Washington and from the congressional district in California where Taft did not have a corporal's guard. If Senator Howell will refresh his memory upon the state of Delaware he calls "the hand-picked delegates from the South" that disrupted the party in 1912, but that it was due to the use and abuse of federal patronage north of the Mason and Dixon line.

The number is fast increasing. Southern California's genial climate has strong appeal to the gentler temperatures. They come here to make homes in the city and to some extent in the country. The startlingly sudden great migration from the old Southern states has been directed towards the Pacific coast as well as the Central Valley. There is no indiscriminate inpouring here of Colored immigrants. Men of their own Race prevent it. Men and women leaders of the Race, many of them' long resident in Los Angeles, have organized themselves into the Commercial Council of Los Angeles to control immigration, to see that only the desirable come, and when they have arrived to assist them to become established in home and in business. The Commercial council performs for the Colored people the functions of a chamber of commerce and a bargaining and settlement bureau combined. Through its efforts there are coming, to this city industrial and thrifty men and women, many of them possessing considerable means, who engage in useful occupations and business; their energies and resources are directed towards fostering and creating manpower in a rapidly growing local business and subdivision and settlement and cultivation of agricultural lands. An announced purpose, of the Commercial council is to stimulate business intercourse and interchange within the group of the Colored people. The leaders hope and aim to so arrange that the present 45,000 workers of the Colored people expect to come here, may have the full advantages of the opportunities this splendid country offers. The leaders work for a worthy object. "WHY SHALL I MAKE ME BEAUTIFUL?" Why shall I make me beautiful? Why shall I plait my shining hair And go in raiment rich and fine? For you will not be there!

The polished silver, china, things that pass Half noticed by our hearts, and yet so dear That should we miss them sud- doward think. How dark the world has grown! Friendship, clear As flawless crystal; sleep and food and drink. A well worn doorstep, some old cherished book. A lighted lamp and love to hold us These joys—if these should go, we'd look To find that all life's happiness was past. —FAITH BALDWIN. I DID LOOK AT HAY I want to marry your daughter sir.

THE PROFESSOR Often I saw him, silent with his books, Gliding beneath the college oaks alone. A man of Samson build and Jovian looks And brow a Plato might not scorn to own. At night his study fire would glimmer late. By day he wandered like a ghost unfriended. He taught some learned tongue of ancient date— And none knew more of where his ways extended. Yet once I caught dim glimpses of his tale, When confiding mood, he said to me, "Better to clutch at starry spires and fall Than follow valley roads to victory!" And sudden, where he stood. I seemed to view Prometheus groaning on his crag anew. —STANTON A. COBLENTZ. Faith is not dead.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1923 TALKS ON PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES, HYGIENICS AND SANITATION ANGINA PECTORIS sion, tightness in the chest, a pushing or pressing condition on the breast, bone, and if it traverses upward on the left side of chest to shoulder and down the left arm on the inner side of left arm to the wrist and hand, and if you have a sense of pain, you may have the threat, you may know by these signs and symptoms that you have a severe attack of angina pectoris. Another symptom accompanying many of these attacks is a profuse perspiration. The poor victim is often stopped suddenly by the brisk, sweating, sitting or running; he is suddenly seized with tightness in chest; he is compelled to press his hands and arms over the region of the heart and to stand as though he is paralyzed; he is afraid to breathe, less he increase the pain; he is afraid to move; his face may be swollen, great dyspnea or difficult breathing, and in some cases hiccough. This is true of attacks that are brought on by hearty meals or some gastric or intestinal disturbance. As a rule these attacks are short in duration, lasting from a few minutes to the outcome of these attacks, but as a rule the victim survives many attacks, depending on his hygienic habits and his self-control. If one allows himself to become constipated, to indulge in over muscular activity or exertion; if he treats himself to much worm oil, and if he allows himself to eat, then he allows his stomach and bowels to become disordered (gastro-intestinal disturbances), flatulence to disturb him or accumulate in the intestinal canal, these will tend to bring on more fecal and severe attacks of his malady. Medical science has not yet found a sure-cure remedy for angina pectoris. There is much that can and should be done promptly for the suffering victim. During the attack the vicious patient will be treated with a large, strong mustard poultices should be placed over the whole region of chest on left side, extending from middle of breast bone in front to the spinal column behind. Hot applications to chest offer prove very satisfactory, with coffee, cocoa, milk, etc. have been known to give much relief. It is claimed that alcoholic stimulants sometimes help. Medically, pearls of nitrite of amyl by inhalation, nitroglycerine, atropine, morphine, is the court of last resort. These drugs mentioned must of necessity be used by a physician or by his order only. Pay strict attention to diet, exercise, eliminate worry and excitement, limit all muscular activity, and tend to raise blood pressure, and you will do much to relieve yourself of those attacks of angina pectoris. THE ONLOOKER By A. L. JACKSON crackers and a dozen wounded are admitted by the news dispatchs from Mississippi, which probably means that a few more corpses might be found in that fated canebrake. All Southern plantation workers know that a season's reckoning is sure to mean down home, namely, the news that you still owe the planter and are doomed to anarchy. There are fewer without any opportunity to question the word of the man who keeps the books. An increasing number of men have quietly made up their minds to die like men when they are not permitted to live like human beings. Southern people call it running amuck when one of us dares to stand up and fight with them when we know that it means death. A few more fits like this man threw down in Mississippi will convince some of them after a while that it is dangerous to presume in advance with everybody. This chap deserves a monument. He was ready. He has lived his life mobs can be made to realize that such a price is too high. Oklahoma tried to make up for Mississippi. The violation of one of those unwritten sundown laws cost the life of a white man and his wife. The police frightened off that mob with a little steel the day before. Both the porter and his boss were shot down without a chance to draw. This is the answer of the South to the plea of the president for putting down the violence. South inmates live by the sword and torch. You know what the Bible says about that. Teddy Roosevelt said something when he urged men to "Fear God and take your own part." The brother is beginning to confess that if that philosophy was correct that Teddy it good enough for him. WHILE the Republicans struggle to put LaFonte in his place in Washington, and at this writing with whom he engages, English king debates calling, in the leader of the British Labor party to form a new government to try where Baldwin, big business man and capitalist, failed. LaFonte has played a lone hand for a long time and has been the leader of the who call for him to be squashed. Congressman Nick Longworth finds that the job is too big for him. All right; maybe the other big guns will learn to look more kindly upon the Senate, so they so right. When they begin to bicker among themselves it is time to drive your bargain. The failure to control the Senate by the regular Republicans means trouble for confirming appointments of the brethren. So we have to deal with the Senate in the meantime do not fall to keep an eye on the English Labor party, Angina pectoris in a very serious, angina and thoracic disease. Angina pectoris may also occur in emergency. males past the age of 40 years more frequently than in females. It is a disease which is characterized or attended by a sense of choking or suffocation with sepsis or pain in the region of the heart, the upper part of the chest on left side, down the left arm to the Dr. Williams wrist and hand. This pain or sensation in the chest gives one the sense of pressure—just as though the heart and chest were being felt. The chest is often the sense of fear and one has the grewsome sensation of impending death. This condition may occur. In connection with a number of abnormal conditions of the heart, the heart blood vascular and heart muscle. The heart pectoris is not definitely known to the medical profession. Many heart specialists claim that angina pectoris is due to overwork or excessive stimulation of the vagus nerve. Most people that it has its origin in the heart muscle, and the best treatment is that directed toward preventing a diseased condition of the heart muscle. But these things we do know: that usually appears in the chest, and that is years of age; that the attacks are brought on by some form of exertion; that the pain always comes in spasms, and as a rule occurs suddenly. Some people who have had former attacks of angina pectoris in remission or sense of its incoming. The nature of the pain and distress is beyond description. The tightness in the chest is of such a nature that the poor sufferer feels as though he is pushed to the spine and that death may occur at any moment. Symptoms One can do much to ward off these attacks of angina pectoris if he has a working knowledge of the symptoms and what to do to ward off these attacks. First, one should be apprehensive of any and all pains in the chest and/or leg region. The doubly important in people who have heretofore enjoyed renexably good health and freedom from any sensation of pain or pressure of like character in the region of the heart. Should you be so unfortunate as to be overtaken with sudden, severe pain in the chest on slight exertion of the chest, you should pain coming on you late in the night, characterized by a sense of oppression. A NOTABLE VICTORY ROSCOE SIMMONS, Dr. Cannon, Line Johnson and their coworkers won a real victory in restoring the apportionment of delegates originally allotted to Southern states. It was a hard fought battle and cleanly fought and,won. It makes little difference what your feelings as a voter may be given, the decision and its possible later effects. You must recognize that these men had some real objections come when they set out to change the minds of the members of the national Repub- A. B. B. A. L. Jackson lican committee. It is bound to have one effect, we feel sure. Republican leaders in the North are going to give more attention, and you will have more attention. If they present the domination of Southern politicians in the convention they have themselves to blame. They have permitted the South to ride rough shod over the Constitution and everything else. They have given them a highly given their own stance voters little but crumbs except in those situations where they were to come across by strong leaders who know how to make themselves heard. This victory ought to be the signal that we have won and result in a closer and better understanding, not only in Washington and in the Southern wing of the party, but in the North as well, where we have votes not only during convention time, but at election time when the line may nominate, but it is left for those north of the line to elect, and in this coming election he is going to carry the result in his vasket pocket in many states, no matter who is nominated. The first line trenches have been taken by them. A word to those who sit in the seats of the scorful. Johnson, Church. Simmons and the rest may or may not do the things you want them to do in the way you want them done. Do you want your chairs and work with them? They are not so able and strong as not to welcome more help and greater strength. Perhaps you can help them and perhaps you can learn something from them by working with them. What we need is more teamwork. In the North we have to measure arms with this white man.
