5 AND 10 CENT STORE IN HANDS OF RECEIVERS Negroes to Be Known as Americans, IN THE great world adjustment and the new reconstruction in our own national affairs, what part do Race men play? No nation, no race, no group, has ever attained its destiny without placing its case before the people. True history is unerring. Some historians distort truth and produce unjust results in the minds of those who are not clear thinkers. During the recent World war period there were many seasons of wild speculative programs to develop a sane, loyal Americanism. In many directions this was necessary, for in our midst we be held thousands of alien-minded people. The National Security league came into existence, radiated its organizations to all sections of our country. In Chicago, in frantic zeal to overlook no racial group, an unnecessary but important gathering was held at the Coliseum, where 10,000 Colored men and women assembled and listened to appeals for loyalty to flag and country. Those were hectic days, filled with love and hate, courage and fear, confidence and distrust: THIS NEWSPAPER PER latest those people S IT EVERYBODY READS IT WEAL 5 AND 1 Color Line Is Southern Durham, N.

Hart & Co. 5, 10 and 25 cent store, the largest store of its kind in Harlem, was taken over by recoverers on an involuntary plea of bankruptcy. This marked the passing of another great enterprise undertaken by members of the Race on a co-operative basis. It was founded a year ago when Mr. Hart, the manager, succeeded in getting enough capital through a syndicate method to the business and form a corporation. According to information given out by the manager on the day that prosecution came, she were started training losing firm, she was taught losing battle due to indifference of those whom it depended and for many days na*m* been losing upwards of $40 per day. Those who were those in charge to sten the crash, but it was impossible to hold out against the great overhead. At the time that they were taking a special meeting in Montserrat hall, at 10:37 a.m. they arrived with a late hour, holographic for his tardiness by explaining that the store had been seized just as he was about to close for the day and transport to the receivers. He then went on to explain that he had done everything in his power to make the business successful, but that conditions had not been met. He talked the stockholders adopted a resolution to the effect that they did not hold their manager at fault for the loss of a banquet in planning a banquet in his honor for the near future. They also went so far as to assure Mr. Hart that they stood ready to back him in an effort to project if he cared to undertake one. When all reports were made and all outstanding debts were checked up, Mr. Hart assured the men that they would receive at least a part of their money back. At the close of the meeting many of the stockholders who had been present prefect personally of their confidence in his integrity and honesty. Baltimore, Md., Jan. 4.—(Special.) Pleading guilty of systematically taking $1,500 worth of goods from Hutzler Brothers' Department store over a long period of time, Henry Brown, theological student at Morgan college, who lives at 271 W.

Both men were employed at Hutzler Brothers as porters, and they are said to have taken goods systematically, with wearing apparel) and all kinds of so much so that intelligence officers and volunteers, individual and collective, were in evidence on every hand. The need of loyalty became so paramount that even in the nation's capital special guards of soldiers were selected for duty and those soldiers were sent forth to meet America. America is for Americans. Not white Americans, not black Americans; not Polish-American nor Scandinavian-American; not Irish-American, German-American nor French-American. In banishing the hyphen from our Americanism, it needs must follow that Americans are not white, they are not black; they are not American, they are not French or Swedish, but ALL AMERICAN. When our forefathers wrote the immortal Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation and "We the People" in presenting the great American Constitution, they were building an American for Americans, then those same forefathers and loyal Union men, who under this Americanism threatened, they dipped in ink and wrote two new chapters into that great American document and straightened out some things that threatened the foundations of our America for Americans.

Howard St., is charged with attacking a 9-year-old white girl when she hoarded an elevator which turned on during tailline establishment, Monday. Edwards, it was alleged, attempted to assault the girl after he had stopped the elephant and according to the story told by the girl choked her when she screamed for help. He escaped following the outrage, but was later arrested by Officer Louis Klingerburg of the Western district.

He was 83 years of age and had spent more than 60 of those in New York, where he held thru-steady work and judicious investments, accumulated a fortune various esti-mates be-tween $200,000 and $400,000. A. B. B. Mr. Smith was born in Balti- town in 1836 to Md., in 1836 and moved to New York during the gold rush to the Pacific coast, about 20 years later, he became a partner in Saratoga and Albany, and then Mr. Smith moved to New York City, where he began his routine ketchup.

The men were cleaning the pressroom when their attention was attracted to a woman about 50 years old, who hurriedly deposited some money, and walked away. They thought the woman dropped something and had gone to get it, and they continued with their work. Noticing that she did not return, they decided to investigate, with the result that the moned Lew Thomas, assistant superintendent of the building, who opened the satchel and discovered the body or an apparently new-born child. The police asked whether the child was white or Colored. A park policeman was called and the satchel, with its contents, taken to the Sixth preset station. years of unrequited toil planted the foundation stones of a great America. Three score years and more ago historians record that man struck the shackles from the limbs of four million slaves. Not so! Again good Providence stepped in and with infinite wisdom did it. Man was but an instrumentality, recognizing in his subconscious self that Americans cannot be slaves and that a freeman in this country is an American. The American expeditionary forces serving in the great war were Americans. We sent not Irish-Americans nor French-Americans; we sent not Polish- or Italian-Americans; we sent not white Americans nor black Americans; not Americans of any group, or class, or race, but AMERICANS, fighting men of the A. E. F., units of the American army. The edict went forth in some fashion to classify the black soldier. They tore off the corner of our registration cards, but thank God, that did not blot out our Americanism, for when the first Illinois combatant forces returned it was the 370th U. S. Infantry that made people frantic in their mad desire to shelter praise and appreciation upon those soldiers. What a day it was! What a sight to behold! American soldiers who had been on the firing line had stormed the Hindenburg line; they were the men whom the populace of Chicago greeted without stint or saving—American soldiers.

RAID STIRS SOCIAL SET OF CAPITAL Washington, Jan. 4.—Twenty-five policemen raided an alleged dove joint early New Year's morning and arrested 50 men and women, said to be civilians, and detained the names of those taken are closely guarded by the police and if disclosed would be the largest scandal in the history of famous Moens case four years ago. The raid took place in the most secure part of the city, and took three wagons to convey the revelers, clad in pajamas, to the station. It is believed that the place was a place for some time. Large quantities of liquor and dope are said to have been discarded according to the police there were many spoonning nooks in the place. Two scantily dressed girls in oriental dresses supposed to be servants were seen. A woman 35 years old known as Bobble gave the name of Mrs. Roberta Babbage, a police officer conducting a disorderly house and illegal possession of dope. Several couples were scantily clad. Police officers were by wearing apparel left behind. France numbers as its nationals every living Frenchman, whether of France in Europe or of her colonies. A Frenchman is a Frenchman, not a black Frenchman or a white Frenchman. British subjects are as such, not white, not black. A Brazilian is a proud Brazilian. There is no line of tint or pigment demarcation modifying a Brazilian one way or the other as a hyphenated Brazilian. So it is throughout South America and in all countries save the United States. America, black men salled the high seas with Columbus when he discovered America and the real American red man; America, black men were with you when you planted the colony at Jamestown a year before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock; black men gave of their brawn in unrequited toll. America, black men fought, bled and dled to save the Union in the great civil struggle, yea, they even proved most loyal to the confederate heart in a way that was loyalty in the most superlative degree. America, black men before the Civil War shed their blood for liberty that this land might be free; the stream leads all the way from Boston commons where Crispus Attucks fell, to Belleau Woods and the Argonne. America, black men stand ready to answer the Nation's call whenever it is made. The corners of our registration cards were torn off, but that act did not for one moment mutilate our Americanism.

Why then, America, deny us that birthright and heritage that is ours, so rightly won, so lovingly maintained, unattached by the flag of anarchy, the role of trutor, shucker or conscientious objector. America we challenge these today—AMERICAN, NOT NEGRO, FOR 1924. Beginning this promising and auspicious year of 1924, it is to be "American" for the erstwhile American Negro. Hyphens are dropped, prefixes and suffixes forgotten. Editors, publishers, writers, orators, speakers and publicists, take cognizance of this fact that the American Negro no longer weighs himself with a peculiar racial stamp, he counts himself none other than an American. Rallying, recognize our fond hopes, our cherished wishes and fervent prayers to be part of the body politic as Americans, we now let it be known that we shall resent as an unfriendly act any reference to the group as Negro or anything other than American. We have carried it, we merit it, we written in American of blood "American, not Negro, for 1924." Remove the blot of the hyphen, destroy alien-mindedness; develop one America for all Americans, including over fifteen million citizens herefore classified as Negro, making a real nation of over "one" undred million Americans.

S. Bull, known familiarly as "Scrub," was found guilty of roohing hard-working farmers and their families and was sentenced to be beseeched immediately. It was brought out by County Agricultural Agent M. H. Falbank, who acted as prosecuting attorney, that the accused had been depriving the people of this farming community of many luxuries, taking the butter from their bread and cream from their milk. According to a representative of the United States Department of Agriculture, "Scrub" was well represented by counsel appointed by the "court," but no argument could prevail against the overwhelming evidence presented by the prosecution and the damaging testimony of a large number of farmer witnesses who had been robbed and had seen their neighbors robbed in the same manner. The jury was unanimous for conviction, and J. R. Dawson of the dairy division, United States Department of Agriculture, delivered the funeral oration. Scrub bull meat is not of the best, but it was well cooked, and a hungry crowd enjoyed it in a measure because they had a sense of doing a good thing for the community. The trial was followed by a sale of One of the unusual features of the day was the varied appropriate music during the day.

J., Jan. 4—Mob rule and southern justice was given another setback recently when Sillas Pannmor, who has been wanted in Georgia for the murder of I. Jefferson Williams, chief of police of Iron City, since last May was granted a writ of habeas corpus by Chancellor Buchanan after the intention of honoring the statement issued by Governor Walker of Georgia that Pannmor would be trial if returned to the Dixie state. The case has created widespread interest, and the extradition of Pannmor was previously by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People on the grounds that Pannmor, if returned to Georgia would be able to show that the accused man could not get a fair and impartial trial in Georgia. Several instances of Pannmor returned to southern states only to be taken from trains and lynched. MRS. ELIZA MITCHELL HURT The car, containing two men, accorded a message to the president.

(Send for Agent's Money-Making Profit Plan) SATURDAY, JANUARY 5, 1924 Request for Photograph With Application for Position Keeps Dark Men Out A rule which should be considered obnoxious by men applying for certain classes of government jobs throughout the country is the one demanding that the photograph of each person accompany his application. There is but little doubt that the rule was made for the express purpose of giving the heads of certain departments and the straw bosses of others quality information to the government, thus allowing racial prejudice to have full sway in the matter of acting upon applications. Men Complain There is nothing peculiar about the fact that when this government found it necessary to call for men to send abroad for the purpose of upholding the principles of democracy the questionnaires which forced millions into the ranks carried no demand for personal photographs. Men were needed and were accepted as such without any ridiculous formalities or punish references, because the lowest job and the marching to the front of the Black boys. North and South, was accorded the same amount of applause and inspired the same sort of admiration as did that of the white boys. And by the same token both fought and died in the "great cause" side by side, without a hint that one thought himself above or below the other. Different Now Things have changed since then and we would like to have an explanation from some person with the needed knowledge as to why and by whom this obnoxious ruling was put in force. What difference does it an applicant have in a bruise, weak chinned or square jaw, knock-lined or bowlegged, so long as he qualifies as to citizenship and actual ability to hold the job for which he aspires? A blind man could see through the situation and we think that the idea employed is very useful to the job for this brief article. Colorphobia and Race prejudice is the answer, or at least we will believe so until some one can give a more reasonable explanation. JUDGE SHOWED WILLINGNESS TO DOUBT STORY OF HOLD-UP JUDGE SHOWED WILLINGNESS TO DOUBT STORY OF HOLD-UP Caleb Harris, $645 Rhodes Ave. was severely beaten and robbed of $21 and a pair of gloves by three white men — Thomas Kelly, John Hammond, and Michael arrested by the Third district police and charged with robbery on complaint of Harris. When Harris, with his face bruised and eyes blackened, appeared in court and was taken to the 48th St. court and positively identified the three men as the ones who had assaulted and robbed him the judge was not incured to believe Harris story. He was on the erse charging the men when the arresting officer declared that they had threatened to "give him" They made this threat, said the officer, at the time of their arrest and on the morning of their hearing in the courtroom. Why didn't you tell me about it then? "I'm telling you about it now," the officer replied. "I'm minute's reflection the judge continued the case to Jan. 9 and placed the men under $2,000 bonds.

BRAVE MEN, UNARMED IN CABIN, DEFY MOB UNTIL HELP ARRIVES Van Buren, Ark., Jan. 4.—This city is in a comparative calm following the attempted lynching of two men accused of the assault and murder of W. White, a woman, and a woman, at her home near Catcher last week. A checking up of events shows that beside the three men arrested for the crime 11 others have been placed in the county jail and another is dead from the gunshot wound received at the mouth of one of the members of the molt. According to the police the trouble started when Mrs. Lattimer was found dying in her home Saturday the night and shot in the back by some one standing near her with a shotgun. At once the authorities began rounding up possible suspects of whom are members of the Spurgeon Ruck, William Bettis and John Clay, a 15-year-old boy. Is No Proof. There has been nothing definite learned as yet by which the men can be charged with the crime except what authorities claim is a confession. Ruck, badly deformed and Ruck is the only person to make a statement at all. In their haste to prove these men guilty authorities have overlooked the fact that the woman's husband defended the man, most of the provisions from the home. Since the death of his wife he has not returned, nor has he sent any inquiry to the police concerning the affair. Ruck and Bettis had been arrested authorities accompanied by a large crowd of white "deputies" attempted to question Charles Ruck, 65-year-old father of the accused man, and upon his refusal to leave, was shot down. The mob was waiting while later, information was then received that feeling was running high among citizens of GIRL KILLED WHEN THROAT IS SLASHED Kansas City, Mo. Jan. 4—On the morning of Dec. 22, a big maroon Marmor automobile stopped at Eighth St. and Paseo and a man and woman alighted, followed Irene Bristol, a comely young woman, a few steps and then flew when the victim of their assault fell to the ground with a slashed. It is thought that the man held the girl while a woman did the cutting. The police have been unable to find any clew to apprehend the slayers. One witness at the inquest, a little girl, said she saw the man hug the woman and then "the lady fell to the ground." The dead woman's pocket-book was found near the scene with $8 in money in it. The car is told to have disappeared north at a high rate of speed. The police did not arrive on the scene until 54 minutes after the murder took place. Fisk Univ. Instructor Wins Prize Nashville.

Word was brought to Sheriff Maxey of Crawford county that a truckload of white men was halted by Gus Richardson and that the man, single-handed, carried the army's arms. When none was discovered Richardson allowed the truck to proceed. Upon the strength of this the sheriff went with his posse in search of Richardson and found him in a log cabin and then ordered to surrender, but refused until they were assured that they would be given protection. This step was taken by the men after they were assured that there would be no lynchings and when they made Olivia O'Dorek a gun was sent with a machine gun and 10 men from Little Rock to assist the authorities, not as a National guardman, but as private citizens, threatened to open fire on the house with his machine gun, they would not give up their arms until they were placed inside the jail and pronounced safe. Held for Trial Ruck, Bettis and Clay were spirited from the jail here and carried by a high-powered Jackard to Little Rock, where they will remain until the sessional court is called in Buren, when it is thought that it will be safe for them to return. Judge R. S. Wilson, who will call the grand jury, has explained that the cases of the 11 men who are being held will not be prosecuted this season. They are charges against them, according to authorities. No action has yet been taken to determine the cause of the shooting of Ruck, the aged farmer. All investigations into the death of Mrs. Lattimer have centered about an extent that Lattimer, the husband, has been forgotten and is being allowed to go unquestioned. 10TH ANNUAL MEETING OF PLU SIGNORS Nashville, Jan. 4.—The Phi Beta Sigma fraternity held its 10th annual convention last week at Mchary Medical college, Nashville.

"ROCKET TO REACH THE MOON LATEST SCHEME OF SCIENCE Cincinnati, Ohio, Jan. 4.—Professor R. H. Goddard of Clark university, whose attempt to build a rocket that would sail to the moon, attracted wide attention several years ago. is still working on plans for a high altitude rocket for the moon, and records of air conditions 50 miles above the earth, he told an audience here recently at the convention of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Both the weather bureau and the Smithsonian institute at Washington are said to be interested in Prof. Goddard's plan, which is now nearing completion. He said he was only one more step up that he can provide a model for flight. Prof. Goddard proposes to shoot a rocket into the air. It will carry a delicate apparatus which will open and close automatically when the rocket reaches a certain altitude. The closing of the apparatus will lock into a chamber a quill that will propel the rocket, infalling to earth will carry with it, therefore, the first sample of air man has ever brought down from such a great height in space.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER MARCUS GARVEY TO SEND DELEGATION TO LIBERIA AGAIN However People Believe He Only Seeks Prestige in Far- Off Country of Africa [CRUSADER SERVICE] New York, Jan. 4.—Despite the terrible experiences of their predecessors, Elenzor Cadet, who nearly starved to death in Paris where he had been sent; Eile Carcia who had to spend hundreds of dollars of his own money to return from Africa, and Crichlow, who had to be helped to return from America by the U. S. counsel in Liberia; another group of people expect to sail for Liberia as a consequence of the movement association, but really, as we are informed, as pawns in the great chess game that is being played between Marcus Garvey and Dr. W. E. B. DuBois. The delegation is expected to consist of R. L. Peston, Miss Garcia, Marke and a prominent member of the Detroit division of the organization. While the proposed trip to Liberia is veiled by the word "diplomatic" it is no secret to those who are familiar with Garveyian politics that its inspiration had birth in the announcement made in a recent issue of the Crisis that its editor, Dr. DuBois, has written. Realizing the prestige that would accrue to the N. A. A. C. P. if its leader, who has talked but little about Africa, should actually go to the continent while he, the "president of Africa" had never seen the soil of his wide domain, Marcus Garvey immediately initiated the new scheme to send a delegation to offset the possible effect of Bois's trip and at the same time start Bois's tour of the lands and totals of which are never published. It appears, so the story runs, that Marcus promised to support one side in the recent election in Liberia, but being careful always to keep for himself what it takes to run elections, did not make good and is so is persona non grata with the Barclay and King factions, with the latter, whom he hostile to him and to DuBois, in control of the government. Realizing the state of affairs, friends of the delegates are insisting that there shall be no repetition of the Cadet-Circhow tragedies but that financial guarantees as to their return and the maintenance of their dependents during their prolonged absence, even if it has to come from the many thousands of dollars that were subscribed for Garvey's defense of the state. Safely deposited, it is alleged, to the personal order of the unselfish leader, Friends of Dr. DuBois are referring to the fact that Garvey has launched the same kind of bitter personal attacks against the head of the N. A. A. C. P. that preceded and culminated in the cold-blooded and cowardly assailments a year ago in New Orleans. It is known by many sons in and out of U. N. I. A. ranks and was asserted by District Attorney Mattuck in open court that the N. U. I. A. engenders violence, which seems to influence distant sympathisers even more than those near the headquarters in New York City. Janitor Put Xmas Mail in Ash Can New York, Jan. 4.—Many families living in the vicinity of 135th St. and Fifth Ave. experienced a disappointing Christmas as far as mail was concerned. Last Monday afternoon a heavily laden postman left one of his parcels in the house and the mailman Fifth Ave. while he cross the street to deliver a package. When he returned the bag was gone. After postal authorities made an investigation it was learned the fanitor of the building had taken the mail and thrown it into the ash can. The mailman and the can were missing is not known. However, the whole neighborhood is worked up over the incident, as they all think their mail was included in the loss. The fanitor was arrested. GIVE WHIST PARTY Misses Corinne Robinson and Bennie I.

Prejudice Yet High But Race Makes History Dr. Durkez of Howard Voices Great Prophecy Relative to Achievements of Race Washington, D. C., Jan. 4.—Recently Dr. J. Stanley Durek, preacher, asked to prepare an article of some 500 words upon the theme, "The Negro." He wrote to the president to guide to write from his vantage point at Howard university, where beat all the tides of racial life in America. "The Negro faces 1924 with a new racial consciousness. His history of racial consciousness. His history of great history is. Reasons for the long night of racial captivity are clearly appearing. They are the same as the captivity of every race in history. Now the Negro thanks God that his captivity of every race is minded to consolidate his powers, mass his strengths and overcome his captivity. Now he will win world recognition because it contributes to world betrayment. Just, in science: Hayes, in music: Durek, in socialism: the social settlement—these men and countless others of the Race are contributing largely to the sum total Improved Opportunities "The Negro Faces 1924 with the improved opportunities for national inherent capabilities. Prejudice and ignorance of history have reterrited their thinking to include any possible contributions from the Negro. The Race has produced a few exceptional men and women, but by revealing the fact of inherent powers which feed civilization. Howard university, rated in the universities and hence accepted as such in England and on the continent, draws to herself this year over 2,500 who everywhere demonstrate their ability in science, art, literature—in all the trades and professions. The fact of restricted immigration does not render closed. Of course the worthy achievement can keep those doors open. Negroes are crowding into the city. Negroes do the work better than one of another race, then the position is secure. Negroes do the work loses his place and the door closes. "A thoughtful review of the last 10 years must reveal to an unprecedented mind the vast increments of gain to this Race. Wrongs there are injustices abound and human prejudices are still blighting; but the Race steadily advances to a future which will outrival those great centuries of the long past. "The Negro faces 1924 with the largest co-operative agencies. That old phrase, 'A friend of the Negro' is in good faith. The Negro does not want a friend any more than does the white man. All he wants is a fair field and no favors. As a race he is a long way from that; yet there are more agencies at work demanding it for him than ever before. Those agencies are not advertised as they used to be, but they are greater and stronger than ever." "He as discouraged as our pessimism or chronic indigestion disposes, yet the fact remains that a new air is sweeping through the world and a new brotherhood is coming in the years as meet us. All you are brethren't is the word of God. Poetry translates it, 'A man's a man for a that.' "Ability, training, character and good old New England horse sense is bringing on the fulfillment."

Now that his musical ability has been demonstrated it is pretty sure to be an major project. The future by "The fact that Blind Torn was an outsider away from his concerts, Roland Hayes bears his honors. Why should he not become generally popular in the South?" He is a great credit to his people and due recognition should not be missed. -Indeed, recognition of any Nero's worth-worth achieved is a joyous feeling.

I now hear that there is an old man who wants to marry her and has taken her East. I hear that she got a license here. Now I want to know if I can get my divorce without putting her in jail and do you think I should put her in jail? I also want to get married, but I am a law-abiding citizen and I don't want to do the same thing she did. I am Worred. All of your information seems to me to be in the most unreliable of any, so I advise you to consult a competent lawyer. I will not be able to help you. I see no reason why either one of you could not obtain a divorce very easily, and I will not choose you to choose. It will not benefit you any to place her in prison, so she will be sent to jail. Your only wish should be to free yourself from her with the very least puberty. Dear Princess: After reading the pleasant grandpa letter, I could not help from writing to you. Could it be the year ago? If so, I still love him, although I am now married, but in my own life he was not my age. I was 17 then, am 18 now. I never felt that he loved me as why I loved him, but he did not answer. My heart was broken even though I loved him, but he did not answer. If I could not hear one word I would be a happy little girl, but I told him, I did not—Waltles. The person you loved is not the same one who wrote the "Grandpa," letter, so rest easy once again, and try to feel the effect of being so much as possible. It is composed of false-dreams and broken idols, but if you cling to the unreality in life, you will never arrive any place. You can only be in your own room, and if you want it will soon pass on, and if you want ever to be happy, you must begin now doing your duty. If you forget all things you need, you should be here for a long-hand and doubtless he cares more for you than any other man does. He at least proved his principle true to honor by making you his will with a mindless heart. You are the most good thing on the side. There is a lot much that you must accomplish if you wish contentment and peace of mind so clear as you should be. But you can't ideal Life is just like seeing yourself in a mirror—the reflection you cast will be cast back upon you full-fold. My Dear Princess Mysteria: As you have helped so many others, I am coming to you for help. I am a widow, 44 years old, a man who is a 18-year-old little man for the past eight years, a thinking child could get along better by myself, but I have found it very hard and lonesome so far. I am a different light and would like to correspond with a man of my age. I want him to be ambitious and fairly well educated. I am a man of my handwriting education. —Very Lonesome. I will do whatever I can for you. I am sure you won't be lonesome long now. You am relationship with a very kind and regular, deities midly patience and stability. Dear Princess Mysteria.

West St. PAGE FIVE—PART ONE Otherwise Princess Mysteria Iing to you for a little information, because I believe you can help me. I am a married woman, 23, and I have a good husband, with one exception. He is a wonderful provider, never quarrels about anything, but, oh, these wretched Sunday papers are driving me mad! We are both educated, but, never read unless he starts first, because I know what it will mean. From the time the newboy passes early Sunday morning until long after I am in bed, he has his head over the papers, only stopping to swallow a bite. Frequently I am in recitals, and he is always too tired or sleepy to go, but when I return he is still bending over the papers. Some times I want to throw up both hands and run to the end of the world. It's driving me wild. Help me, quick. Yours is a very unusual complaint, and I have not touched Sunday is the average man's day of rest, oftimes his only one, and he is not a man of fitness, so long as his pleasure is decent and harmless. There is no better way to do it than reading and I appreciate the association or friendship of a well-read writer than reading and I appreciate the imitation of them. Perhaps your husband does peruse the papers to your side, but you ineffectively he might be spending his Sundays. Grow accustomed to Sundays and molested. He will tire of the papers much sooner than he never did of them, try to make the best of it, for a person who knows not to get angry and is very poor companion. Dear Princess, I am a married girl of 18. I am disatisfied because my husband stays out late nights and, in the meantime, I get angry and says I must be fired of him. I can quit him, but he says I want to go back under her rule. Please mother and under her rule. You can hardly become subject to your mother's former dictates again, as you are no longer a child, so you do not have a child from a woman. I have no doubt but what your mother would restrict your actions to some extent, that is a mother's privilege—but if you do not have a child, you are not going to act, you will be thrown on your own for a livelihood, consequently, you will have no one to account to. You should not object to being advised by you whether you are the mother, the child, or the son, and again, you should not crave only the right, and if you do, you will find mother the best friend you ever had. That is only an excited year of love and love for him, so he's wrong doing. If he is dealing unfair with you, I advise you to seek the loving protection that only a loving mother can give. Dear Princess Mysteria: I am coming to you for advice, as you have helped others. I am 25 years old and married. I have a baby girl years old. Now I have a baby girl, I have a true wife to my husband. He is just half my age, with a few years added. He does not seem to appreciate anything I do. I always have a quarrel with my mother for it. I will say that I don't pay any debt. He doesn't fight me, but always says he will and threatens to kill me and says he is going to steal our baby from me. I am very very well a child. I don't love him, I was long as I can. I don't love him. I was very good to marry him, but thought I would learn to love him; so, dear Princess, please advise me.—A Lonely Mar Patience ceases to be a virtue at times, but yours would substantiate this fact. If we no reason to hamper your possibility, with a man who shirks his bounden duty and it he has utterly fallen up to it, to make him what you wish him to be. You don't love him and you haven't lost nothing. There is room in this world for all of us and there is someone you can love. There will love you, your suit should be loved.

He ordered her placed upon the witness stand, where he undertook an intensive investigation of her life. Step by step she is led over her past and more and more the attorney sees a resemblance between this and his own case of years gone by. A word placed by the mother of the boy startles him into the realization that this girl is his own child, whom he had thought had perished, unborn, with its mother. It is a tragic situation and one which you will have to witness to appreciate. The way in which the story works out to the satisfaction of all will make you leave the theater happy, despite the many thrills and startling episodes through which you will be carried. Don't fail to see this great drama. Ethel Waters & Co. are the headlined attraction here this week. The celebrated Blues singer was never missed, and this special engagement has brought a list of brand new songs, all of which she puts over with character, accompanied by a clever lady pianist, Ethel Williams, the famous esthetic dancer, provides entertainment between numbers. Miss Waters wounds her throat and gets among the feminine patrons with every change. Mason & Zudora, a young team of singing, dancing and playing girls, feed and go over nicely, Mahdara, a telepathist, mystifies; he is exceedingly proficient and is able at times to joke, joke, joke from DeBurg Sisters, in a good magical novelty, the regular stock musical comedy is done.

These include Crackshot & Hunter, one of the cleverest pairs of comedians in the show business. These boys travel over all sorts of circuits and press notices indicate that they register at all stands; Boatner & Boatner and Strong & Jenkins, two singing, talking and dancing "mixed" teams of splendid ability in distinctive offerings, full of new dialogue and clean comedy, and our own Charles Anderson, one of the greatest yodlers of all time.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER "SHUFFLE ALONG" Plenty of Good Material and Plenty of Talent at Academy Richmond, Va.—Some three seasons ago, the orchestra falled in New York; then it hit Chicago in the right place; then Boston, and so on until last season it was presented by a road company in Richmond. And now it is again for three more performances in the city, night at the Academy of Music. There are many changes in the cast, but it's the same fast-stepping, intensely and intensively syncopated, ragged and loud music that has taken whose cast and chorus range from the highest yellow to the blackest black that burnt cork can produce. The subjects, the actors, show last season's success, but the chorus number is increased by several and the orchestra is enlarged to ten, including a genius with drums and trans and the same able director, T. L. Gould, who will help to keep them all rereading last season. Maybe, almost certainly, the big mistake last night and something to do with George Cohen himself never worked a show with any more speed, zest and flair. He ordered men and women displayed last night. Strut their stuff? Why, they didn't do anything different, and they were so focused while the saxophone mono once. There is also an actor of sorts in the cast. His name is A. F. Watt; his name is not A. F. Watt; no means of determining; but in his character he is not a Colored man, not a Negro, but just a big, gangling, as inscrutable as it is inscrutable to the balcony and gallery as it does to the orchestra. Last nights' audience was also much more dramatic than the same partner, Edgar Connors, who has the same role he had last season. Then the principals and chorus go down, and dancing jazz as it should be sung and danced, the whole of Tin Pan Alley can't write music fast enough to match the material and there plenty of talent in "Shuffle Along" the two are combined and everybody steps on the gas of Jessica Gordon, in Times-Dispatch. Baltimore, Md., "Dinah," Irvin C. Miller's new Colored extravaganza, at the Gayette, is a musical, singing, joking, and dancing. There is a plot to "Dinah," or rather a legacy that pops up now and then. It seems that Dinah's guardian the money she receives the money she is to receive on her 21st birthday in a dance hall project. The guardian isn't wise to it and bribes her as her curioeuse, and she dances the dance hall starts to fall. Three of the townfolk save the bank, the dance hall and the scoundrel son, who isn't sure what to do. There is a love story, too. It certainly did seem real when the two sang "Dixieland Dreams." by Doe Doe Green with his Bert Williams walk; Irvin Miller, tail, slender and funny, and Billy Mills, who sings "The Ghost of the Blues," the haunting music Myrna Jones goes to the haunted house and get the buried money that saves the town. The cast of characters includes Lemuel Callow, Cook, Lawrence Benson, Myrna Jones, Sterling Grant, Archie Cross, Ethel Ridley, Gertrude Saunders, Harry Smith and Alozon Fenderson. Four brings out the real harmony. Lyrics and music are by Lieut. Tim Brimm. "Bolanges" Bill Robinson, the only act that ever was accorded a perk on his way to Broadway, New York city, and who showed the writer a bunch of consequential vaudeville circuits, Orpheum and Kelth, sent a wire carrying New Year's greetings. The message was signed by both the "Greatest Single in the World" and his friend through with him. "Be" is the highest salaried vaudeville artist the Race has ever had. The contracts mentioned the song "Be" and the aggregate salary amounted to the snug sum of $48,500. Since "Be" is salaried, it is safe to say that when he has worked out the above mentions, he can make to make the well-known wolf do a back flipon. If he comes poking his nose over the old kitchen door. Contrasting Team Makes Hit With "Talk of the Town" Here we have a pair of the Race's most accomplished performers, James Comedy and Little Jeff, known the world over as "The Hammered Down Hoglet. The boys are featured with Harry M Strouss" "Talk of the Town" on the show: on the Columbia burlesque A wheel, and judging from press reports they are creating a great name for the team. "The Long and Short of It," Slim and Jeff take an active part throughout the show besides doing the real joy for the ticket buyers.

ODIS PROSPERS A letter arrived from Odis Hannah last week and the well-known Cuban magician and contortionist states that is offering success touring Southern Illinois with a book titled "The Spirit of the Unmasked World Introducing 10 Minutes in Hell," so you can see that it must be red hot and the letter came from Carbondale, IL. "DINAH" IMPRESSES "BOJANGLES" SLIM & JEFF SLIM & JEFF Here is a letter which arrived a few days ago. It tells of the old timers, Brooks & Duncan, who have been abroad ever since Hector was a pup: "Dear Friends: I arrived in Calefo, the mother of civilization, in 1815 and died; where Pompey and Anthony finished their dreams of empire and lives—this prodigious country, born of war and peace, by the blood of many people. I had visited the pyramids and other places of interest and figured that I was ready to leave, was standing in the street, was stopping, I was stopping—on an Egyptian guide pointed across the street and said, "There goes an American," and I told him. I found him to be Mr. Setz Jones, an artist from American. I "WHEN ODDS ARE EVEN" "WHEN ODDS ARE EVEN" An actor is nothing if not versatile, and William Russell, coming to the stage in "When Odds Are Even," his most recent William Fox production, proves it. Mr. Russell has acquired a tremendous following by sheer merit and in enacting a new character in "When Odds Are Even" hazards a well-known character, customized to seeing him in crook roles, or in parts that are essentially in keeping with city localities. He has been seen as a character but in the "When Odds Are Even" he gives his initial characterization of the modern chauverie. He is particularly well known for his background with which he has been long associated is removed. Manager Paul in presenting "When Odds Are Even" expresses the hope that this anomalous Russell will be liked no less than the familiar one. He specifically bases this hope on the fact that the product itself. He says: "When Odds Are Even" embraces a romantic story of the race of two oceans, the Pacific and the oceansal mine in Australia. The scenes are multifarious and colorful, ranging from San Francisco to the South Sea and from the Antarctic to the abyss aboard a jauce ocean liner, and an ancient sail-schooner also comes in as a frame for some highly dramatic epilogue. "William Russell is given opportunity to display real talent in characterization, and his vehicle is fraught with complications," Supporting Mr. Russell is Dorothy Devore, who will delight the feminine eye with a gorgeous display. In due course, the film will feature both in the ship scenes and those taken on the South Sea Islands. She is famed as a former Mack Sennett star, and more recent notable dramatic work.

"FOLLOW ME" Memphis, Tenn.—I. Welgarden's great musical comedy production, "Folly and the Giants," will be on Monday night to a capacity house. The Venus theater, owned and operated by the company, has a better attraction. The show is all that the well known writer, Tony Banks, has done in the season, and then some. Artists like Clifford Ross, Billy Higgins, Susan Kearney, and the like-up could not help but deliver and "Follow Me" bids fair to break all local seasons.

After a walk of 20 minutes we arrived at our objective and there I met two of the Brooks and Duncan who said that I ever saw.

The story is of intense intensity, which a young American mining expert secures the location of a forbidden mine from an aged Mexican who is stricken to death in a large cave burial and heads for the Republic to the South in accordance with instructions carried on a piece of paper. He is surrounded by reopens it, financing it with his own money. He immediately finds opposition to his plans and he and his servants are increased on every slaying he encounters as the adventurer as a "mine jumper." The daughter of the original owner of the mine is located. She is a beautiful woman who immediately falls in love. The attraction is mutual. Things are moving along quite smoothly when a noose is thrown on the floor and a secure possession of the mine. He is frustrated and in revenge he kidnaps the girl. This leads up to a sensational a series of episodes as could be the story of the bandit and final rescue of the girl by her lover is certain to stir the blood in your veins and cause you to also be the victim. At the fall of the curtain, Andrew Bishop and Cleo Desmond play the leads with Sid Kirkjatrick handling the bandit and the act is a great deal of comedy throughout the play, relieving the tense situations.

Although the deed has been done and the movie men have packed up their Indian paraphernula and stolen back to Hollywood with thousands of dollars, the treason is not yet. The incident will certainly be brought up in parliament, and some government officials are in the minister or two are in a forbid half day. Protests of Societies A report, circulated weeks ago, that a concession has been granted to film a movie about a soldier's fable with Indians shooting with arrows, sometimes killing and some not, and protests from humane societies, game associations and churches all over the country. The Hon. W. S. Fielding issued a statement which the public understood to mean not only that the movie was based on a human modern method, but that there would be no filming of the scene. In a few days ago, announcement was made that the great moving picture stunt had actually been filmed. The buffalo had been stamped, that Indians with bows and arrows had been stamped, that buffalo had been stamped, that Indians in the ensuing panie 30 instead of 20 buffalo, including some cows and calves, had been slaughtered, the buffalo with assailants and indignation. Occasion as Described According to one description, here is what happened: In preparation for the killing scene 25 riders and cowboys were hired and armed by the Gee Indians, brought from the reservation at Hobbsena, spent the week in the Hobbsena Indian Hide, led toward the "location" a large belfast of tama buffaloes was driven down a wedge-shaped ridge and the riders toward the coules, where a few riflemen were concealed in pits. In all their war paint and helmets, the riders along the flanks of the rushing herd, shooting harmless arrows in profusion. Before the buffaloes had reached the appointed spot riffles beheaded, the riders paused in its rush and all was confusion. Cowpunchers fired with their rifles. Frightened and untried causes and ponies of the Indian braves bolted, hudded into whirling groups and mingled with "with their 'wind up' the riflemen Anyone Knowing the Wheebots of GUS BUTLER Please Write Me Quick, As I Have Been Told He Ne Dead.

The heads are to be stuffed to adorn the studios of Hollywood and the movie houses of Cincinnati. Secretary's Version The secretary of the moving picture party gives a slightly different overview. "Every one, including government and park officials, appears to be quite nervous. We have carried out our share of the contract. 'It took us seven months to get all details worked out as to just what we needed, and everything.' I repeat everything—was actually done by or directly under the supervision of park officials." Huntsmen in Pits "And here is how the buffalo were kept." In "concealed pits, two in number, were three expert hunters and one expert rider." J. W. Stainbaugh, Tom Wilson and Jack Coates. These were armed with a rifle and a sword. "Several score of expert riders were engaged from the ranches of the buffalo, of whom are well known at western stampedes. In addition there were three expert hunters and 25 squaws from Hobbema reserve. "It was necessary to have at least five bisons shot directly in front of them, but they were instantly; an fifth dashed away wounded, but was followed at once by riflemen on horseback, who shot them altogether. Altogether, 24 buffaloes were killed. Wounded Animals Killed "Within 10 minutes of the time the calves were tracked down and killed. The carcasses were cut up and cold.

The animal picture company's concession was the first contingent. It will be removed by less spectacular methods. KILLS A "BAR" A letter from Dave Pleket, the faction's leader, tells Frank Clark, stopping with Pleket, killed a black bear weighing 150 pounds through the woods near that place.

A curious and revealing stitement picture exhibitor of this city recent film for the following week. "This year we have a new picture of summer, but at the height of the sheer significance of this is in the exhibition exhibit by his summer tumult, and admittedly below the required stand of the theatrical season," films with and included productions. Last summer the motion picture throughout the country, suffered the highest tumult, and Every reason conceivable was given. The extreme heat was blamed, the city, the influence of the exposure of picture exhibited. Films which had never in the projection machine were sent, represented heavy investments and their contention that they will not attend provided the movies are of the right quality, and one of the most interesting one of the highest and most unhouses on several nights had shown was of a fine quality, realizing the make them rich and the rest of the summers in the city—New York Man. A curious and revealing situation came from the office of a motion picture exhibitor of this city recently in the announcement of his feature film "The Influence," which was the first of the type which ordinarily would not be exhibited during the summer months, but at the height of the theatrical season." The significance of this is in the fast that it reveals the attitude of the audience. The movie is the worst in attendance in their custom to "dump" on the summer market pictures which are admittedly below the required standard to attract audiences "at the height of the theatrical season," films which have been on the shelf for months. Last summer the motion picture houses, both in New York and throughout the country, suffered the worst slump in attendance in their custom to "dump." Every reason conceivable was given for the slump, except the right one. The extreme heat was blamed, the absence of many residents from the city, the influence of the exposure of some "inside" affairs in the motion picture, all these contributed to the event beyond doubt. But in the last analysis the real cause of the slump was the poor quality of the pictures, the lack of quality in the production machines were sent out broadcast, simply because they represented heavy investments and the producers wished to realize on their expenditures, a double rebelled, producer and exhibitor alike looked upon the situation with sorrow in their eyes. The contention that people do not attend movies in the summer is only true to a limited degree. The contention that they do not attend movies in the summer is all wrong, because the picture is one of the right quality. This was proved most emphatically only a few weeks ago, when, during one of the hotest and most comfortable weeks, one of the local exhibitors was at a noisy quality. Some exhibitors are realizing the truth, and the realization of it will make them rich and the result is more content with spending our money. "ONLY A SHOP GIRL" "ONLY A SHOP GIRL" Rather The Shop Than the Jungle, Says Estelle Taylor Famous Minstrels Popular on Circuit Estelle Taylor, featured as one of the million dollar cast in "Only a Shove Girl," is the picturized version of Charles E. Blaney's great stage success of the same name, is a regular woman. Among other screen plays she appeared in "The Return of Zarzan," the four-year-old's reeling a required some pretty rough handling of the various members of the cast, and the two-year-old's reeling the most-billed "Charles Wood, J. S. Reeves," Tommi Harris, Bossie Gray, Billy Cauz and the other members of the showground in strenuous fashion. Asked how she liked being "Only A Shove Girl," the showground asked the women of a jungle monarch, she replied, "That is a quer question to us." In this picture I have the pleasure of wearing some of the most beautiful things I can do in the most beautiful way of being a story of "Only a Shop Girl" so interesting that I was really sorry that she was finished and was come East again. "When I saw the finished picture on the women really envied myself," she�ed the picture of wearing those gorgons costumes. The shop me, as compared to the North roars of laughter. His discourse "Only a Shop Girl," with Estelle Tullman, Baty Baby Josephine Adr and others will be shown on Monday January 7, Jan. 7, and 8, in the States theater. OKEH NOTES Piron's Orchestra—Piron's Orchestra of New Orleans, one of the most noted orchestras in the country, has joined the ranks of Okeh Race record stars. The entire orchestra is now in New York City, making Okeh records and playing for dances in one of the famous New York cafes. A. J. Piron, leader of the orchestra, has been famous for many years, both as a composer of remarkable music and as a musician of the talented Master of the Race will be employed to know that they may now purchase Okeh records of the famous Piron's orchestra, to have in their own homes. Charles Anderson, well known singer and "hon hoo" man, is now an Okeh record and has with whom he has the money. Anderson received from the Okeh company the purchased a new wooden leg, so now he is able to navigate almost as well as a man with two regular legs. Anderson produces the object and singing duets with himself. His voice has an infinite and low the next and he switches so rapidly from one voice to the other that people think two men are singing.

Situated over the Theatre Daunou, the Club Daunou is operated by the Tomson Twins, English dancers. The seizure of the funds was instigated by Charles Brazell, an American theatrical promoter, acting on behalf of the International Five, American Negro entertainers, whose contract with the Thomson Twins, he claims, the latter refused to fulfill.

Another band was engaged to play at the Club Daunou. Reason Given for Refusal On the other hand, the proprietors of the Club Daunou insist that their reason for refusing to accept the Negro band was because of the fact they踊跃 to return to a musicians and not entertainers. To a reporter of the New York Herald they said: "During the rehearsals we noticed that the boys showed an inclination to join in the number of a singing. Co-writing them all together has have here, we could not have Negro entertainers. Then, again, they were frequently late for rehearsals. Finding that we could not use them here, we made them several times on our own time which has paid them 1,500 francs a week more than our contract." Both parties suggested submitting the case to a third person for settlement. An arbitrator was chosen in Joe Zelli.

Norfolk, Va., Dec. 21—Victory smiled upon Hampton when she won her initial game of the season over the Shaw five by a score of 24 to 14. "Some game! Some teams!" was the verdict of the Norfolkforkins who saw the first Colored collegiate basket ball game. In thrills and brilliant playing the game was equal to the host that any early season game can produce. At times it fairly sparkled with lightning passes and sensational shots, not to mention the moments of dazzling work. Gunn for Hampton scored first with a foul shot. McNichols followed with a field goal. Lytle, Shaw's star, next scored a beetle to score 3 to 2 in Hampton's favor. He ducked and twisted his way down the floor again and, whiff! the score became 4 to 3 in Shaw's favor. Shaw registered another field goal and the seasliders in his favor. Things were looking bad for the Seasliders. Hamptonians were begging for a shot and Hampton rallied. Hargrove started the free throws with a lightninglike shot from Shaw. The goal point, score 6 to 5 in her favor. With a bewildering series of passes Hampton worked down the court and McNichols caged the goal that put Hampton into the seat. She scored the goal but out an impenetrable defense and a winning offense. Again there was a thrilling exhibition on the "tries and wins" Gunn scored 10 and the score now 11 to 6 in favor of the Seasiders. McNichols scored a foul Shaw in turn scored one point on a foul. She ran the ball to the Hampton quintet. Hampton registered another on a foul at the close of the first half. Hampton was leading by 6 points. She ran the ball to the second half Shaw was unable to break through Hampton's defense for field goals until near the end of the game the game ended by staging a threatening rally. Substitutions were made but to no avail. Forte scored two field goals for Shaw and ran the score to 14. The score on this score was made on fouls in this half. McNichols registered a perfect field goal from the center of the floor. Very soon after this play came ended and Hampton was victor. Lanneston, McNichols, Harrove and Jones were the outstanding players. Lytle, McNichols and Falkenstein. Hampton-24 **Shaw-14** Gunn.....R. G. Lytle Cynthia.....L. G. Falkener Harrrove.....C. F.

BOXING COM RACE REPRESENTATION ON N.Y. BOXING COMMISH URGED BY J. B. HARRIS Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 4.—The annual banquet to the football team of Morehouse college was given Saturday evening, Dec. 10, in the college dining hall. Dr. A. D. Jones of the class of 29 acted as toastmaster, and some toastmaster he was. He kept us bursting our sides as he introduced the various speakers of the evening, giving all the old-time players the cognomens they had while in college. The first speaker was Dean Archer, for a long time one of the early interest of the students, viewing of football at Morehouse from the first team to the present writing. Dr. Archer also paid high tribute to Coach Harvey for his splendid record as coach for the last eight years. Coach Harvey the best we ever had, and the rest of us echoed his statement. Other speakers were Messrs. Toomer, C. V. Green, M. Russel, W. C. C. Green, and A. M. Russel of the school, who commended the team on the good record they had, and each of them hinted in his discourse that he, along with others of the alumni, had on foot plans to erect a grandstand on the athletic "Let us hope the plan will be perfected," said ex-Manager Harris, as he spoke to Coach Harvey told of the enjoyment and pleasure he had gotten from coaching and how the spirit of the game had affected his life. He also presented the following men's names as eligible to wear the coveted M.Capt, Charles H. McCarthy, Gayles E. D.Hutt, W. Howard, A. Williams, N. Cooke, G. Turman, G. Davis, T. R. Stair, J. Jordan, E. L. Tondee, C. D. M. Greggs and S. N. Archer, Jr. Assistant Coach Warner commended the team on the way they fought during the season. He also battles, said in his talk: "As the curtain fell on the football season of 1923 I, along with Gayles, Howard and Hutt, departed for the game. We selfish idea with us that the team will decline with our departure." This is true enough, but too much praise can be given to the entire varsity squad, many alumni and Manager-Elect Crawl were present and enjoyed the affair. REGINALD SIKI PINNED TWICE BY JACK TAYLOR Winnipeg, Man., Jan. 4- Jack Taylor, heavyweight wrestling champion of Canada, took two straight falls here on New Year's night.

In addition there will be at least one other incumbent to serve as chairman, and for mer chairman, and Frank Dwyer, are the two men whose terms expired Jan. 1. It is also reported in boxing circles that most anything might happen in this state, and it is reasonable for the reviving of boxing in this state. Conflicting reports have it that the law is to be killed; that legislation is to be enacted improving the conditions for the boxer to be made to remove existing causes and complaints. The cause of the proposed shakeup is supposed to emulate from Tammany Hall and naturally incurs the controversy of this kind, even if used only for an alibi, the "insiders" say the commission wasted a lot of energy and time in not coming out openly and sane, and wasted the scrap. That might not be all as the political forces of both parties have already begun to line up for this year's presidential campaign, and be prepared to attend the appointments, several well-known Tammany Hall Democrats have been mentioned to fill the vacancies. For many years Tammany Hall has been among our group and in turn have handed out several political plums, and then again there may be pressure brought from certain angles that they are not willing to admit it is a sure thing that the entire personnel of the boxing body will be Democratic in its politics. The above statements may be taken with a grain of salt because at least giving indemnity From our way of looking at the situation there should be a member of our group on the commission. Pennsylvania has seen it to make such move and move forward, it is now afficial to the public as well as to the protection of Race boxers. Had not such been the case, our group would be entirely eliminated in the present Quaker State controversy. This is food for thought. This group, Smilil will give consideration to our viewpoint. The time to act is now, as the boxers and NOW I'VE GOT IT — I'LL JUST ACT LIKE I'M FULL OF GOOSE, AND THE FIRST COPPER THAT COMES ALONG. WILL THROW ME IN JAIL — THEN I GET PLENTY TO EAT.

If not the continual camouflaging of the public meeting of Wills and Dempsey will sooner or later kill boxing in this state. New York, Jan. 4.—According to a rumor said to have originated in Philadelphia early last week and which made it the 4th most successful St. Andrew Mitchell, a former St. Christopher club boy when that organization was in its prime, is being backed from several sources as a candidate to become a member of the St. Andrew Mitchell board. Just how much the rumor is worse is a question. BAR SIKI FROM RING: HE SEES FIGHT AS PAN Grand Rapids, Mich., Jan. 1. Al-Arshawi, Bob Levy, had early in the day declared their intention to make a test case of the ruling of State Boxing Commission, prohibited the Senegalese fighter from entering the ring here, the pair were then when Joe Lohman of Toledo and Soldier King of Grand Rapids fought a 10-round draw. He authorized the decision of Piles, in which he stated that Siku was "no fit person" to enter the ring, as he had been recently to abide by the decision. Siku had declared that he would be in his ring clothes, commissioner or no commissioner. The decision of the state commissioner barred Siku from any Michigan fighter in a match or as part of an exhibition.

League Has Done Well With less than $12,000 to work with or on, all of this for individual clubs, not one cent was used for projections to function and has paid out to players $23,000 and the for use of parks $155,000. For railroad fares, sleeping car fares and boarding fees with the incidental expense of each club, advertising, balls, bats, equipment and help at the ball parks, umpfers, etc. for the games and holidays in the playing season. It is a proven fact that on Sundays only have clubs been able to play at a profit. Detroit and Chicago have 18 Sundays during the season that can be played at a profit. Kansas City, Indianapolis and St. Louis have 11 Sundays. Week days have on many occasions been a complete loss and many times the clubs after playing have had to dig down in their pockets and have to help too small to even pay expenses. Yet four years ago the combined salaries of the clubs we had West did not amount to $15,000. These are are worthy of your consideration. There is a demand for a schedule, the things the big leagues are doing and continue with what big leagues are doing, and why we should do the same things. Probably you have never taken into consideration that we are rich men. Their wealth can be counted in millions, that a man can not own a big league club that has not millions of dollars in the weather man and cannot see our way clear to do. We are willing and know what can be done, but have nothing to do with it. We can buy for sale on Sheridan Rd., also on the North side; plenty of places for sale in the Loop. You could own them easier than we could afford to operate the league clubs or minor associations. Constructive Criticism Is Just Criticism either makes or breaks one and many times prepares one to do better. We have been seven times by chance, and some critics cannot even make a living themselves. When one so criticizes just ask him to show you what he has accomplished, you will be responsible for. When he answers you you will have a better chance to see why some people knock. If conditions are wrong I for one welcome a chance to learn. If you are unlucky you have something equal to give in return. Several articles have appeared in different newspapers that have been very detrimental to you, any truth, just deliberate lies, yet it was considered good news and, yet it was the people.

PLOP Our people mostly believe all they road, but are fast walking up to the belief that reading a thing does not mean they are afraid and are thinking some for themselves. I take great pride when I refer to the American Giants. They have done wonders. When there are places like Giants traveled thousands of miles to play ball. Each trip has brought renown to Chicago. Anyone familiar with such trips knows that the loss of money. Yet we believed a better day was coming and set out for California and the far Northwest to make the Colored Giants the best team of money. These successes are now history. The Giants have done more to keep a friendly feeling between the Negroes and whites than any other institution of sports. They are the best card in baseball from merit and accomplishment. Color Line Not a Barrier Mr. Schlegel is one of the best and most honorable men I have ever come in contact with. He made it possible for us to enjoy baseball in the city. The park has been the choice for us has been used the same way, and is an investment that runs into thousands of dollars. He has allowed to be paid through my pocketbook for us. I have been alone. In our 12 years together there has never been a difference of opinion. He has never asked me why I did anything to make him take me. He told me more than any man before; has given me many thousand$ of dollars that I knew did not come from the games, and that I could go we were able to pay for the park. You can see or better judge the type of man he is when you take into consideration that every game, all contracts and agreements, work, what anyone receives, all help and employees, rental of grounds have been trusted to me, and no one has been able to do any business with him until they came to me. This will give you better night life than you would. When he wanted me he said, "I am fixing to invest lots of money in baseball. I want you with me. Name the terms." I told him. He said: "If that's what you want you must be worth it." That was our last business talk. This was 12 years Appreciating the many favors and patronage we have been accorded by the fans everywhere, especially at Chicago, want you not to overpay for the club. We always given you the best; we will make efforts to continue. You have seen the stars leave here. Some criticized me for sending many of the best players in the world away, yet, we have seen theiruit developments, and have seen developed the greatest players in the country.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 5, 1934 PAUL QUINN IN XMAS WIN OVER BISHOP COLLEGE Defeats Old Rivals, 10 to 0, Before Crowd of 5,000 Students and Friends Waco, Texas, Jan. 4.—Led by the sensational "Hub" Tinsley, Paul Quinn tamed the Bishop Bears early Christmas afternoon before 5,000 wild fans. Crashing, sliding and squirm- ing over the sure, solid turf, the Tigers, playing with their usual mach- 机-like grace, scored their touch- down in the last minute of the first game, although the opponents came as the result of a 40-yard drop- kick. In the face of a driving wind, Sheppard the Paul Quinn back. The final count was: Paul Quinn, 10; Bishop, 0. The game does not indicate the merits of the two teams. Bishop was outclassed. They fought gamely, but had no chance against the Wacoans. The Bears made but one first down during the game. The Tigers had merits 15. The Tigers had their punch and used it to good advantage. King, the flying Bishop back, was stopped, while Jermany, with his back down, ground than all the other Bishop backs put together. There was not a running back on Paul Quinn's team that did not gain more ground than each other. Every pass but two put on by the Bears was smacked. One pass from King to Jermany netted Bishop 20 yards, but that was all that Bishop could do in the afternoon in the way Bishop, however, had its star. There was Brownning, the Maroon center, who wormed his way through the Tiger backs for losses. The brilliant Kenyon was boxed in time and time again, and the Paul Quinn backs ripped off large gains over the left side of the Bear me. In which Capt. Tinsley directed his team in the first quarter, when he realized a touchdown made early in the game would have much to do with the morale of the Bears, was a revelation to local followers. Juquin L.

They were forced to walk the street and alley, rulling thousands of dollars in clothing and suffering so much that whenever they came to the station and saw that sign "White Waiting Room. As if the sign was not insulted, the cop was stationed there with his billy which he used freely to instruct the trainmen, so might happen to be unacquainted with the wishes of the railroad officials. The entrance. Men were beaten up and women pulled and jerked by an officer who glorified in an opportunity to women. And all this in spite of the fact that this station was built with money furnished by our taxpayers. At last the strong, courageous men of the community resolved that they would see this regulation abolished if it took a riot and their blood to do it. They were tired of being treated like cattle and excess baggage. These men met and decided to employ every peaceful means in their power first to bring the railway officials to reason. They were determined that this thing would be stopped. So with the same courage and wisdom that guided the members of the famous Boston tea party of pre-revolution days, they set themselves to this task. Courage Brings Results. They called a meeting at the Savannah Homo association. The editor of Savannah Homo magazine, Mr. Johnson, was the chair as presiding officer.

This society men of foresight and suts can do when they make up their minds to help the war, and upon them by cheap men. This same thing can be done all over the world, women, too, would get busy and attend to these matters with determination and wisdom.

Dearborn EDITORIAL PAGE OF THE THE Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY Founded May 6, 1900, by ROBERT S. ABBOTT, LL. B. Published by THE ROBERT S. ABBOTT PUBLISHING COMPANY (INCORPORATED) VISION What a world of consolation It must ever be to those Who remember summer's glories Midst the winter's ice and snow; Who can see the silver lining; To each dark cloud passing; by; Who can find in death a passport To His mansion in the sky. --- THE ROOT OF THE EVIL UNTIL A FEW YEARS AGO the basis of representation in the conventions of the two major parties was double the number of delegates that each state had senators and representatives in Congress. This is still true of the Democratic party. Representation in the national House of Representatives is based upon population and the appointment has been abandoned by the Republicans for the alleged reason that the states composing the solid South not only furnished no Republican electoral votes, but that very few votes are polled even in presidential elections, which resulted in giving those state representation out of proportion to their voting strength, which is unjust and unfair to the Republican states. TO THE CASUAL OBSERVER this objection has the appearance of being both reasonable and fair, yet when carefully analyzed it has no equitable basis upon which to stand. Unfortunately there is a potential element in the party represented by some influential newspapers headed by "the world's greatest statement of our voters as a factor but that the Republican party should sanction and approve the same. THEY SAY, in substance, to the Southern oligarchies, "Keep the Colored voters from the polls, allow them no voice in the government under which they live, to support which they are taxed, and to defend which they are expected to die if necessary." The alleged reason is that Negro domination would otherwise be the result in Southern states, a statement every school boy knows to be false. THOSE WHO MAKE IT are guilty of unparadigmable ignorance or else their purpose is to mislead and deceive the public. In accordance with this advice Southern Democrats are far back as 1875 proceeded to practically reorganize the late Confederate army and by the adoption of Ku Klux Klan methods forcibly took possession of the different state governments at the South by violent means. For a number of years they maintained their ascendency by lawlessness at the polls, fraud in the count and perjury in the returns. These methods have been used in the illification and "grandfather clauses" substituted, which the United States supreme court declared unconstitutional, but which are still being used. WITH A FULL VOTE, a free ballot and a fair count, for which the Republican party has uniformly stood, such returns would show that at least 25 percent of the white voters and 80 percent of our voters would vote the Republican, and at least 25 percent of the black voters Mississippi, Louisiana and South Carolina would be as reliably Republican as the State of Vermont, while the chances would be in favor of the Republicans in Alabama, Florida and Arkansas. But through the exclusion of our voters in these states only a hand of Republican voters would be allowed to vote the Republican vote is not because Republicans are not there, but because; they are not allowed to vote; yet the so-called Republican papers that advocate the exclusion of our votes have the effort to call the attention of Republican leaders to the official election of the party, and to make sure the same as revealing the voting strength of the party therein, and to make the Republican votes as thus returned the basis of representation in conventions of the party, which would have the effect of putting the party on record as giving its approval to the extension of our votes through Constitution mutation. Can anything more ridiculous and absurd be conceived? DEBASING THE BENCH OR THE MOST PART the men who medicary are intelligent, broad-minded and fortunately there are a few who have this mobic calling utterly devoid of all life or fair play. Their decisions are given form of prejudice, money, fear of titer to powerful outside influences or fear. In consequence of having these men each hundreds of people who are guilty to suffer. IN INLLIOIS strong laws descend all citizens against any form of danger or reason of white race, color, creed or FOR THE MOST PART the men who compose our judiciary are intelligent, broad-minded and fair, but unfortunately there are a few who have crept into the courtroom and have made justice or fair play. Their decisions are governed by some form of prejudice, money, fear of running counter to powerful outside influences or personal hatred. In consequence of having these misfits on the bench, hundreds of people who are gullibrass are made to suffer. WE HAVE IN ILLINOIS strong laws designed to protect all citizens against any form of discrimination by reason of their race, color, creed or religion. And for any judge whose very oath of office binds him to the sacred duty of administering the laws as finds the need to book in the courts some serious criminal discrimination in case being tried before him and publicly advise the members of one group of American citizens to stay out of the business places operated by whites when the latter object to their presence proves him to be a wolf in sheep's clothing and a man to remember at the next election. HOME so-called courts below the Mason and Dixon line a dark face counts 39 points against the prisoner the moment he stands before the judge (2). Recently he had a taste of this sort of thing in Chicago, not by any of our judges worthy of note, nevertheless by a man who somehow got into the judiciary. Fortunately his term of office ends in the near future. The road to political oblivion finds many public servants who permit their prejudices to run away from the law. The judge is strong and powerful, and when the cross is once placed on an enemy it sticks till doomsday. SMUGGLING ALIENS IN THE COUNTRY ONE THOUSAND a day is a large number of people to land upon American soil contrary to our immigration laws, but according to a recent statement credited to Secretary of Labor Davis this is the condition we face. Many, of course, are snugged across the Canadian border, some from the countries to the south, while the long stretch of Atlantic coast affords excellent opportunity to work, and may almost an impossibility to entirely stop the leakage, although the government is bending every effort to do so. IT IS VITALLY IMPORTANT to keep the immigration gates partly closed until our working class gets a strong foothold in American industry. Only since the war and through necessity we have given a chance to prove opr worth in occupations other than those found on the plantations. The scarcity of labor creates a high average of labor on man's turn of mind the white foreign laborer is given preference over the black home product. When the former is not available the better gets an inning. IN SPITE of the assertion that the country as a whole is prosperous, labor agencies report thousands ob able bodied men and women now out of employment and we, of course, bear the largest share of this burden. The smuggling of 1,000 immigrants a day into our country means just that many more the American laborer has to pay the moneyed interest he means a larger club to hold over we. There was a time when we wereads as cats' paws, but since organized labor saw we, to engulf in this condition no longer prevails. FORD BOWS TO COOLIDGE EVERY FOUR YEARS in our drift toward the presidential campaign there develops a vigorous agitation for the establishment of a third party in need of a third party to be the need of a third party, but seldom if ever stoves to reflect as to upon just what basis, an American third party could be organized. Many an intelligent citizen believes the Republican and Democratic ideals are morally bound to their respective ideals of yesterday. THE IDEALISM of the middle nineteenth century was a straitjacket to our economic life which we have burst asunder and long outgrown. Ideals grow out of economic arrangements and only those are practical that are in perfect harmony with the rest of the world, a particular time. The politics of a community or a nation is the reflection at all times of the dominant economic or business interests of that community or nation. THERE WERE NO GREAT CORPORATIVE business enterprises when the Republican and Democratic parties came into being. It was a time when the government was large or large. The government was quite close to the plain people. But since that middle nineteenth century period great fortunes have been made, monopolies and trusts organized, and an unseen power has arisen, standing between the people and their government, more powerful than the government itself. It is big enough to be a class war, for a political party must have an economic foundation. And in our present socio-economic history there is only one of two possible grounds upon which a third party could be established: Either that of protecting through legislation the interests of the small or middle class business people against the large or middle class business people of the working class against heartless exploitation. HAD HENRY FORD not decided to give up the race in favor of President Coolidge and had he entered the campaign for president at the coming election it would have been on the platform of a third party espousing the interests of the people, rather than the classes, either of which is liminal to his own personal interests as a thorough member of the capitalist class. But Mr. Ford's idealism does often carry him quite contrary to his personal interests as a business man. The fight against him, had he attempted to run for the presidency, would have emanated from two prime ministers. Mr. Ford would have his friendship to labor; the latter believe him to be prejudiced against his race. ASIDE FROM M. FORD'S FINE SENTIMENTS toward labor there is one other thing that commends him to many who are scattered throughout all classes, and that is his strong conviction that our government should be more responsive to his possible this? In the past if America has been able to keep out of European politics it was because there was little or no cause for her entering it. We had our hands full in developing the West, which in territory has amounted to an empire. But today, beginning at the close of the Spanish-American war, American capitalist interests extend around the THROUGHOUT EUROPE and in almost every other country there are to be found large American invested interests. And certainly the political policies of the particular countries must ever be of much greater importance than the bound to protect the property of its citizens. More, through its diplomacy it must create opportunities for an outlet into foreign areas of surplus capital at home. This is inherent in the growth of modern economic systems, coming presidential elections to be one of the most interesting in the history of American politics. RELATED APPRECIATION WHILE IT MAY BE TRUE that it is not necessary to try to make BEAMES for a wrong dorm in kind for a sacrifice made, there is as damning as doing him with faint praise or with collateral that has a string to it. For the wake of the movement inaugurated by fighters of the Confederacy, who tempestuous plans for their plan to create a monument in love of the "black manniles" in the South, the old guard planning to celebrate the victory of the conflict staged in Chalmette, Andrew Jackson, in which battle we plan important part, which is the reason to be for us—at this late day. NUMBERED that in Naval Jackson was commissioned as major, the regular army to serve against the Brit军 he captured Pensacola, Fl., then pain, but used by the British as a base on enslave, on the 5th of January, 1815, he by the aid of the black troops, a severe enemy before New Orleans. These blues had been led to believe that for their success in the smoke of hattle had been cleared from all and was calm and serene. General Japus, bedecked with glittering trappings and while he gave them a bit of the praise them, he hede them go back to their mule and subservient, and resume their stupefaction as best as possible. AS HARRY ONE MAN may to look upal southern as holding good will dark brother, his daily words and his eye that while he comes with an olive brine behind his back with his other hand a big club to beat this dark brother's. We have entertained the hope that as the conditions would change for the better, the evil will soften the hearts of our oppressors just when the skies seem to be clearing an angry dark cloud and the storm comes a full due respect to the good element in the perchance mean well, we suggest that they more time or money building monuments to mimes" or hold no more love feasts of a dare, in our behalf, for they are not appreciate parties in whose behalf they are given. WHILE IT MAY BE TRUE that it is never too late to try to make amends for a wrong done or a payment in kind for a sacrifice made, there is such a thing as damning one with faint praise or paying a debt with collateral that has a string to it. Following in the wake of the movement inaugurated by the Daughters of the Confederacy, who temporarily jumped into the public spotlight not so very long ago, with their plan to erect a monument in loving (?) memory of the "black mammies" in the South, we find the old guard planning to celebrate the 1959 death of the first black man on Oceano, Andrew Jackson, in which battle we played an important part, which is the reason to be for honoring us—at this late day. IT WILL BE REMEMBERED that in May, 1814, General Jackson was commissioned as major-general in the regular army to serve against the British; in November he captured Pensacola, Fl., then owned by Spain, but used by the British as a base of operations, and on the 8th of January, 1815, he inflicted, largely by the aid of no-shoot troops, an severe defeat over the enemy. The soldiers of the officers had been led to believe that for their gallant services they would be accorded full liberty. But when the smoke of battle had been cleared from the sky and all was calm and serene, General Jackson, pompous, bedecked with glittering trappings and inflated with success, stood before these loyal soldier boys and while he gave them a bit of the praise justly due them, he had them go back to their masters, and then he gave them back their status as slaves, the same as before the war. TRY AS HARD AS ONE MAY to look upon the typical southerner as holding any good will toward his darker brother, his daily words and his every act prove that while he comes with an olive branch in one hand behind his back with his other hand he is holding a big club to heat this dark brother's brains on conditions would change for the better, that old sores would heal, that returning on our part good for evil would soften the hearts of our oppressors, but just when the skies seem to he clearing along comes an angry dark cloud and the storm comes. So with all due respect to the good element in the South, who perchance mean well, we suggest that they waste their time and energy in the mammids" or hold no more love feasts of a belated nature, in our behalf, for they are not appreciated by the parties in whose behalf they are given. THE MEXICAN MUDDLE SENOR DE LA HUERTA gives as the reason to revolt against the Obregon government that he is becoming essentially holistheistic in this. This is a hit entwinkle when one recalls that at the advent of the Obregon governs La Huerta, who held the portfolio of finance the most socially radical in that garrison. A PERIOD of only two years has been a complete about-dee. The reasons of Mexico are lined up behind him, a land owner sees in him an efficient instruc- which to bring back the old order chars the long administration of the late Portfollio THE WORKING CLASS of Mexico is by noep. No sooner than the Fascist uprising Huerta and his followers made itself free was ready response from the Mexican Com- sider of the Argentine party, and scores of men. SENOR DE LA HUERTA gives as the reason for his revolt against the Obregon government that the latter is becoming essentially holeshevistic in tendencies. This is a bit enigmatic when one recalls the fact that at the advent of the Obregon government the war with the French was financed, considered the most socially radical in that government. AFTER A PERIOD of two years he is exhibiting a complete about-face. The reactionary classes of Mexico are lined up behind him, and the great land owners see in him an efficient instrument with which they can order older characters for financial administration of the French Dix Diz. THE WORKING CLASS of Mexico is by no means asleep. No sooner than the Fascist uprising of De Le Huerta and his followers made itself definite, there was ready response from the Mexican Federation of Labor, the Labor party, the Communist party, the Agarian party and scores of unions and labor unions. Obregon also the picturesque organizations of intellectuals known as the League of Revolutionary Writers and the Union of Painters and Sculptors. THE MENICAN PEASANTS were already armed—at least partly—dating from former revolutions, and they are simply appealing for more and better arms. General Guerrero Sanchez in Vern Cruz and General Estrella Falcos are the military leaders of this Fascist revolt. IT CAN hardly be charged as yet that American capitalists are contributing any support to the rebels. American interests have to a very large degree been a part of most latter-day political disturbances in Mexico, and more than it is generally thought. But with all this history he own capitalist class, sufficiently self-conscious and powerful, to undertake through physical means to establish a government consistently partial to capitalist class interests, and without foreign aid. WHY NOT put a few of your New Year resolutions into use now and sort of get them under control before the next New Year starts? CLEANLINESS may be next to godliness, but when it's next to zero it's time to cancel your frigid obligations. Open That Door! AMERICAN FEDERATION OF LABOR OtherPapersSay FRUITS OF RACE HATRED [From Chicago Journal] Marlow, Oka, evidently is one of those rare communities that would rather be known for infamy than not known at all. It has established an "unwritten law" that no Negro may remain within its sacred precincts over night, and has numerous signs posted to warn all corners of that precinct. The hotel of Marlow hired a Colored porter, who worked for him three days. At the end of that time a mob of unmasked white men rushed the hotel and murdered both the Negro and his white employer. For sheer barbarism, and apparent deserves a skill and crossbones model. it doubless impossible to reach much limited and jaundiced minds with any appeal based on common decency and common sense. It is in order, however, to point out to prejudiced but still rational people whether the gospel of race hatred should be to be a matter which can be left to the South to worry over. It has spread to every industrial section of the country. Negroes are leaving the South every day to work in Northern mills, and their coming—like the advent of any sharply marked and easily distinguished type of men—prouses antagonism. The mob hurries upon them, and even if that antagonism is cultivated and cherished and given free reef. Citizens with somewhat broader vision would do well to consider the international complications which come from these race murders. The interests of the whole world would be required that protectorate over divers West Indian islands now held by British and France. Such a shift of sovereignty would leave fingeres with no excuse for maving. Insure the trade and the trade, and, Incidentally, give those two European countries an easy way of paying a part of their debt. But the population of both British and French West Indies is mainly Negro and no Negro community is likely to vote itself under a flag which tolerates such episodes as that at Marlowe. PEACE! PEACE! PEACE of MIND! IS the SUBLIME Transparency Of a SOUL DIVINE PEACE—to acquire— IS life's GREATEST desire. To have PEACE We MUST Love GOD With ALL our HEARTS; With ALL our SOULS; And—lest we DEPART, Above ALL ELSE.

The animal is classified as a Boston terrier, and whatever gender it has is feminine. From the day we got her until the moment we have been trying to give her a name that will stick to her. The result is we have called her Butterfly (Butter for short when we are in a hurry), Mary Ann, Cherry Bounce and a number of other things. Yet we persist in calling her "happy." We are the kind of allowing the miss—if you can call her that—to join the Kennel club; but she has just got to have a name. Will my readers help me out by making some suggestions?

SATURDAY, JANUARY 5, 1924 TALKS ON PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES, HYGIENICS AND SANITATION SEASONABLE DISEASES tion of the left elbow or shoulder subsides the infection of the right hip, knee or ankle apparently grows in severity; and again the right arm and hip muscles may be attacked or itself on the left side of the body as the infection of the right arm and shoulder subsides. The poor victim is absolutely helpless. This disease is so painful that one cannot bear the pain of the infection of the affected parts. Often the heel in the region of the tendon of Achilles is so tender that it is necessary to make a cradle to relieve the pressure of the heel from the foot (fever), but at the same time you are wet with profuse perspiration that has a sour, peculiarly unpleasant odor. Hence it is very necessary to bathe the patient to rid him of this awful This disease attacks young adults and children. They seem to have a peculiar susceptibility to acute rheumatic fever, or what you call rheumatism. Although this disease may attack people in later life, middle life or middle-aged persons seem to have a much milder attack, much more prolonged course, and it is more likely to develop into what is known as orchitis, a severe rheumatic sores and affinities in certain joints—in old people than in children and young adults. Males are far more often attacked than females. This may be due to the fact that males are exposed more, but the condition prevails, however. Among the males more often attacked are coachmen, chauffeurs, all kinds of drivers, curtains, and fridges. Among the women, fashions and scrub women in large buildings; it is also claimed that certain families have a peculiar susceptibility to rheumatic fever. As stated previously, one should firmly adhere to the idea that rheumatic fever is a focal infection. We know that many rheumatic conditions clear up and the patient is able to recover from the infection, clearing up and cleaning up of the infected sinuses by treatment or removal of disease tonsils, by riding the mouth of decayed and abscessed teeth and all infected foci in the region of the mouth and throat. The patient is also infected with chronic infected,pus tubes and other diseases of the genitalia have been cured in badly infected rheumatic individuals and immediately their joint infection (rheumatism) has disappeared. The body is usually riddled of the body of the various foci as above mentioned. THE ONLOOKER By A. L. JACKSON Virgin birth is a myth let's scrap the myth. There is no good reason for believing less in the teachings and life of Jesus Christ simply because He may happen to have been of mortal flesh and blood like one of us. We wish we could see some signs of intelligent interest on the part of ministers of the Race in this subject. Religion is as vital a force as science and has needed for a long time more intelligence put into its leadership and policies than emotion, of which it always has had a surplus supply. A generation from now when these modernists all have won their point of view, we will be able to church polity we will come trailing along to shout "Amen!" Young people who are discovering for themselves every day that those things which their fathers and mothers believed or professed to believe are being used and good men are more or less at sea when it comes to finding a mooring for their religious thought and conduct. If ever there was a time when we needed big, well informed, and good men, we are it now. Our own preachers and ministers must realize that the daily press, which is so powerful an educator in other things, is stirring up the minds and imagination of these young people with accounts of what they are thinking and saying on these matters. Why wait until the battle is won to speak out? EMMA WASHINGTON and her crew flashed to the world the colorful uniform of the favor of Pullman officials. They were dependable in a crisis. After all, what more can you ask of human frailty than that? You know the story. We will not bother you with a repetition. If more arguments were needed to convince the Pullman and railroad officials, that these men and women ought to be more engaged in their labor they have it. The Pullman company has been doing some commendable things in its shops, and under the leadership of Perry Parker will undoubtedly do more. But we all hope that the time will come when those stripes on the arms of the porters wear out, and the man must clean a record and long faithful service. They ought to be a call to come up higher in the service. There is no good reason why the man who takes your ticket and looks after your safety while you sleep should not be able to wear that gold stripe which makes him look more mature to the travelling public. They are as fine and as competent a group of men as the white conductors and deserve to be given recognition as conductors. What conductor could do more than Emma Washington or Parmell?

No Cases Are Diagnosed and No Prescriptions Given in These Weekly Articles At this season of the year we have a great prevalence of certain diseases and it is the part of wisdom for us to recognize these diseases, prepare to prevent them as far as possible, and cure them in the earliest possible stages. M Acute rheumatic fever is an infectious disease the origin of which is notably known to the medical profession. We know that its onset is Dr. Williams sudden, marked with a great febrile reaction, often aching and general soreness all over the body following exposure to wet, dampness, chilly winds, or sleeping in a room that has a window. We are not aware of the house and not used, which becomes cold and damp. This disease, rheumatic fever, is more prevalent in what is known as an open or green winter, when there is much rain, lack of sunshine, snow and zero temperature, and the disease worsens in winter. These conditions are known as predisposing or exciting causes. Rheumatic fever has a great tendency to attack the joints and is often known among the laity as inflammatory rheumatism, articular rheumatism, rheumatic arthritis, tenderness and very painful. It is claimed by some that there is a definite organism that infects the whole system, but seems to have a selective property of attacking the larger joints; it is known as micrococcus by some, and by others as the diphecococcus by some. We care for these big names? What we are most interested in is how to prevent and keep from having this rheumatic fever, how to cure ourselves in case we become victims of this disease. What we want is common sense, and the prevention, as far as we are able, and the management of this disease in case we are attacked. There are many peculiar aspects about acute rheumatic fever that often lead one to think that it is a focal infection—that there is a focused location or situated somewhere in the body—as this disease has a great tendency to attack different joints at different times. For instance, this disease may attack the elbow or shoulder of left hand or right hand infection; sometimes simultaneously you have the same character of infection in the right hip, knee or ankle, and for a time it is seems that an the infece- ADVANCING YEARS THE season is upon us when an- anniversaries seem to multiply along with stray gray hairs and a disarray on the roof. Naturally resolutions seem to have less potency than they possessed a while back. There was a time when we would not have hesitated to have the Y gym at least once a week during the winter and to do at least 36 holes every week during that holiday. Also, we know that the flesh will weaken and the spirit desert us at the crucible time. Our resort offices on disturb- while back. There was a time when we would not have healtated to have resolved to go to the Y gym at least once a week during the winter and to do at least 36 holes every week during the summer. We know that the flesh will weaken and the spirit desert us at the crucial time. Our class secretary insists on disturbing our holiday cancer with noticees our weekly decemnal reunion plans and queries about the number, age and idiosyncrasies of our offspring. We are not sure whether he expects to have us report one for each year or not, or whether his bootlegger agent insists on getting some gauge on the probable thirst of the cancerous anxiasts and drown their woes in anything with a convincing looking seal on it. We did resolve last week to acknowledge all the season's greeting cards which our friends were kind enough to send us, but we were reminded that we failed to keep that same resolution last year. Moreover the flood around us made us unaware of ours, us Santa Claus did not leave us enough energy or change for postage stamps to keep up with the pace. So we hope that our friends who read this column will take our plight in consideration when they fail to hear from us. Next year we may be able to catch up, with the assistance of our friends and a secretary, with whom we somewhat disturbed when some charming lady has attracted our attention and who, when we have received an introduction, says, "Oh, yes, I think I met you in Baltimore or Boston back in 1914 or thereabouts." You see that "back in" kills us. For it accounts for our lack of interest with baked hair who now set the pace at the dances and parties and who walk all around old gentlemen of 30 or thereabouts. Jumping the hurdles was a clinch compared to the hazards of the average dancing party these days. FUNDAMENTALISTS THE dispute between the so-called Fundamentalists and the Modernists waxes hotter each day. The Episcopalians are massing to march upon the house of blisops and the Freshyterians are scrapping new articles of faith while you wait. It seems as though the days of Bob Ingersoll have returned, with the chery themselves playing both leading roles on and off the course, impossible to carry a religion on by teaching falsehoods and untruths to the young.
