She was a sort of angel for the poor, and would come to "Mother Bright" as she was affectionately called, to hold their yearly Christmas savings. Sometimes as many as 100 accounts would be turned over to the little tots during the Christmas season without an error.

New York, Jan. 18—After an illness lasting just 12 hours this city lost one of its many curiosities in Mrs. Lillian Russell Smith-Bright, a 511-pound fat woman who had only been out of her apartment at 411 West 52d St. once in seven years, and that was on last Christmas. She died Jan. 18. Mrs. Bright had been offered large sums of money to appear with circuses, but steadfastly refused. Her death resulted from pneumonia. Known as a heavy eater, she could and would consume large quantities of food four or five times a day, sometimes devouring as much as four to six pounds of meat during her period. Mrs. Bright was very small, almost a pygmy size, and the fat accumulated upon her shoulders almost reached the top of her head. She was active about her tidy home, keeping house for her devoted son, Frederick, who was her constant companion. Mrs. Bright was well informed along many lines, was a constant reader, being a graduate of St. Stephen's School, Van. She was born and reared in Bordentown, N.

Court Decides That Wife No.2 Had No Claim On Estate New York, Jan. 18.—Two years ago, a man named Robert Wethers, 273 W. 143rd St., was killed while working as a stevedore for contractors of the New York Central Railroad company, 11th Ave. and 33d St. He was crushed while passing between two trains. Wethers is said to have been happily married for six years and lived with his wife and child at the foregoing address. A short while after Wethers death, another woman arrived in New York and said she was Mrs. Mary Wethers of Baltimore, claiming to be the first and real wife of the deceased. She brought along with her two children, William 18, and Bowie, aged 14, putting in her career as beneficiary and filed papers for Wethers' estate. About two months prior to Wethers death, his wife contracted an illness from which she died, hence her little girl, Bobbie, was left an orphan. The New York Central railroad made financial arrangements to pay compensation and had started to give her monthly allowances, pending the final payment, after she was made. Mrs. Mary Wethers was made, the company refused to make any more payments until they were certain that they were paying the right parties. Mrs. Wethers produced a marriage certificate and so did the family of wife No. 2. The fight was carried to the Supreme court, and Mrs. Mary Wethers, it is alleged, was granted $50,000 damages. Among the things wife No. 2 claimed were that she was married to the deceased in Delphi, plane. Wethers went and that Lilian and Beatrice were the result of their marriage. She also declared at the first trial that she knew nothing of another wife or child; that the deceased had supported her the seven years while in New York, sending her by registered mail $25 to $30 a week regularly; that she had visited him often and that he had in turn come down to see her and the girls in Baltimore. New York Central railroad then engaged the services of the Boulin's National Detective Agency, 2376 Seventh Ave., to conduct a thorough investigation. Several of their operatives were sent to different points in the South and discovered enough evidences to warrant the court to grant the company a new trial. Among the things the agency unearthened were it is alleged, that one child, children, Wethers were to be their daughter, was the child of another woman, Grace Proctor, who was living in Manasses, Va. They also brought all the mail men condition of the unemployed and the F. Coage of Washington, W. H. C. Richardson of Indiana, George H. hier and secretary of the West Vir- week. Their stay will be indefinite, party. That had No in Estate from Baltimore, who made deliveries along the route where Mrs. Wethers lived, to disprove her statements that she had received weekly registered mail from the deceased. They fur- her located several of the former tenants of 273 W. 143d St., many of whom were friends of wife No. 2. This was to offset assertions of Mrs. Mary Wethers of Baltimore, who said that she had made several visits to New York during the lifetime of her husband at the 143d St. address, but never saw another wife or child there. The real aunt of Lilian was located by the detectives in Sykham, Va., and brought to New York. When the case was again called for trial in the Supreme court on Monday and Mrs. Mary Wethers placed on the stand to testify, the large number of witnesses were ushered in. It was such a surprise to the other judge that Mrs. Wethers was equally embarrassed. It is alleged her nervousness reached such a point that her speech left her for awhile, upon which the judge not knowing the cause, asked the witness if she had something in her mouth. The case lasted until Tuesday, resulting in victory for the railroad company and the judge, being the company man. The company man to continue to take care of the little orphan girl, Bobble, and make the financial settlements on her. St. Louis, Mo. Jan. 18.—What is believed to have been a precedent in a St. Louis court was established last week when a jury in Circuit Judge Shawney awarded Mrs. Cora McKinney, 2326 Walnut St., who was injured in a railroad accident near Wittenburg, Mo. In 1922, $15,000 instead of the $10,000 for which she had instituted a suit against the St. Louis-San Francisco Railroad Co. The accident occurred in September of 1922, when rains had weakened a tree each an extent that it gave way while a train was passing over it. Four people were killed and 75 severely injured. Mrs. McKinney, according to witnesses, was in the third car, a day coach, which went over an embankment. She sustained injuries from which she is still suffering, it was not known. The defendants in the case attempted to win the suit by proving that the wreck was an "act of God" and that it was unavoidable. This argument was overbalanced by that presented by Attorney Edward W. Forlestel, representing Mrs. McKinney, who produced a newspaper article and investigated the bridge at the time of the accident and found that trespassing the bridge over which the train ran had decayed. The award was raised from the figure named in the bill to $15,000 when the jury awarded the case to Mrs. McKinney's injuries were of a more serious nature than was at first believed by the railroad officials.

N SCHOOL WINS FIGHT SCHOOL BOARD passing interest among teachers and prospectus and around Washington because of the methods that have been employed to keep many young women from getting actual employment in the schools even after they have qualified by examinations. This practice has been going on among white teachers as well as others. According to evidence/brought out at the hearing, the board would allow a person to reach the head of the aligibles and then disqualify them by giving them a temporary substitute job that would force them to the bottom of the list.

FINDS MAN DEAD IN ROOM; MATE IS NEAR DEATH Poison Liquor Kills Man on Spree With Married Woman; Three Held by Police In a bedroom at the home of Mrs. Adeline Green, 4402 Dearborn St., Alexander Evans, 28 years old, who lived on the second floor at the same address, was found dying shortly after 9 o'clock Monday morning and a woman who occupied the room with him was found unconscious by Mrs. Green when peculiar molasses attracted her attention to the room, which she had rented to Evans, who engaged it for the woman at 3 a. m. Monday. Immediately after her discovery Mrs. Green summoned Dr. O. F. Roberts, 4358 State St., but Evans died before the physician arrived. Following investigations by Officers Williams and South of the Third District police, who responded to the police alarm, poison from the drinking of moonshine was said to have been the cause of the man's death and the serious illness of the woman, who was later identified as Mrs. Martha Hope, 35, 3733 Langley Ave. According to his wife, Mrs. Martha Evans, Evans left home about 6 o'clock Sunday afternoon. She did not see him again until after his death in the apartment below.

MEMBERS OF CHICAGO POLICE BAND SCHOOL PRINCIPAL IS ATTACKED BY ROWDIES Last week Chicago daily newspapers carried glaring headlines stating that 50 pupils of Wendell Phillips high school, which is composed of 95 per cent members of the Race, attacked the assistant principal. I've got, Frederick W. Schacht, after having been ousted from a hall room dancing class; that a near lot resulted, and that Eugene Eaves, 17-year-old student of the school, who lives at 533 East 44th St., was the ring leader of the gang. These papers further stated that Miss Amanda Geighly, dean of girls, was involved. According to Prof. Schacht, these statements are untrue. Investigation by a Defender reporter disclosed the fact that the newspaper reports were an exaggeration of an almost negligible incident caused by some hoodlums invading the school. There was not a near race riot, but merely an alteration between authority and some members of the outlaw gang. Prof. Schacht in his interview with a Defender reporter said these boys who did the attacking are members of a well known gang called the "Prairie Ave gang," which has been terrorizing the neighborhood for some time. He also declared that there are several such gangs and they are constantly causing trouble at the school and among the pupils. The trouble started when members of the Prairie Ave. gang invaded the assembly hall, was conducting a class in dancing. Previous to the dancing lesson an entertainment had been given in the hall for eight grade students "On my way home I walked into the assembly hall and saw some boys who did not belong there," said Prof. Schacht. "I ordered them to leave, telling them that the entertainment was over and the guests had gone home. All of them left the hall quietly except one boy, who looked to be about 12 years of age, who became impertinent. I shoved him out of the front door and turned to go back into the building when I was struck over the head by one of the boys. My glasses fell and were broken. Some one fired an automatic which I believe contained blank cartridges, as no bullets were in evidence. I ran after him and he threw the gun away. Another boy picked it up and pointed it at me and fired several more shots." Last Tuesday afternoon an anonymous telephone call brought a squad of policemen from the Stanton Ave. Called by Death JAMES T. PETERSON The Hon. James T.

A NEWSPAPER SCOOP VERSUS REPUTATION OF A SCHOOL When some of the daily papers tried to drag Phillips' name in the dust, wasn't it a good thing for the school to have a name? That the only result of the false motive was to bring all pupils closer together to "rally round the standard, Onward, Phillips, Forward," said the headmistress of Phillips. Friends must be even as loyal and join in the work to rout those hoodlums who are beasmirching the school's fair name. We do not feel the need to rant about the conduct of Phillips' student body, nor need we waste time by pointing out the utter falsehood of the daily papers who spoke of Phillips as a teacher. The teachers found hard to discline. Indeed, our paper has been appealed to by many teachers of Phillips, as well as students and friends of the school, to tell the truth to our community. Now we find this unnecessary. We know the intelligent people at all acquainted with Wendell Phillips and his motivation for the school, which, composed of over 90 per cent Colored students, has risen above color prejudice to compel respect as a part of the school's scholarship. In athletics, in school publications, in dramas and every other line of student activity. Indeed, because of the access of the students being visited by outsiders for information and precedent. It has been pronounced by one of the members of the board of education as a high school he had visited this year. But there is one thing that every Colored person must do, whether he is personally connected with the people or the "toughs" who are responsible for the trouble and fights that Phillips is not at all connected with, but for which as a "Colored" school, it must the conserve by prejudiced people.

BY A TEACHER DR. BURNS VISITS PAULINE JAMES LEE HOBO PUSHED OFF CAR; BRAKEMAN IS PUT IN JAIL Peculiar Law Puts Blame on Brakeman Who Forced Man to Jump From Train Clarkside, Miss. Jan. 18—It cost Joe Brannon, a young white man, his right leg when he attempted to hobble his way from this city to Cleveland, Miss, according to reports of officials at the Clarkside hospital, where he was brought for treatment. Brannon, it is alleged, was caught by Dave Taylor, by Dave Taylor, a brakeman, when the train was running at high speed, Taylor, who is not white, yelled at Brannon to get down. The latter rejoiced when Taylor, the brakeman's head, who rushed him and cause the white man to lose his balance. His right leg was caught in the wheels as he fell down the side of the car. His leg was so badly mangled that amputation just below the knee was necessary. A transfusion was given Brannon by his brother. Since local authorities learned that Brannon was a white man, and Taylor was of another race, warranting an arrest, the latter is now in jail on a charge of attack with intent to rob. All brakemen have recently had strict orders from railway officials, and Brannon caught "riding the topo." No particular method was outlined, and in some cases white brakemen have shot to death men caught beating them in the event Brannon dies Taylor will be held on a charge of murder. MRS.

All Annoyances and Troubles Are Gone as She Gains Strength and Mind. We Are More Secure Known as St. Joseph's G. F. P. Which is Helping So Many of Our Women and Young Girls Face Life With Providence with Renewed Health and Vigor. Many women of our Race are be- weakened by the necessity of every one in the family bearing their Because of the hard work, they go for a long time, weak, nervous, rundown and worn-out, believing they will succeed in reality they are ill and suffering. Their work becomes harder and harder to do and they become lull, dull, discouraged and listless, and feel like they are not in reality. That is the reason that so many women nowadays want to get away from the farm. They believe when they are weakening and embarrassing symptoms, such as headache, backache, pain in the back and side, nervousness, nausea, crumpling, dizziness, numbness, and irritability and that awful feeling of weakness and despondency that nothing will relieve them but to give up their dependence and get away from the farm. One of the greatest discoveries in its bearing on the health, happiness and independence of our women is those who are responsible for the perfection of the phenomenal medicine known as St. Joseph's G. F. P. that one dreaded malady—Charlottie of the village—nine out of every ten of these cases. By making their medicine what is believed to be the first specific for women, St. Joseph's G. F. P. is plain from the sensation it is creating everywhere, the discoverers of G. F. P. have succeeded in giving our women that long sought something to restore their health, vitality and energy, even in cases of years' standing where everything else has been tried and found waning. How quickly our women have been to take advantage of this opportunity to escape from the sickness and suffer from the sales record of St. Joseph's G. F. P. which has reached the astounding total of more than a million bottles since it was first introduced genetically, and length and breadth of our country. There can be no more convincing evidence of the merits of the St. Joseph's G. F. P. in making the women of our Race strong and healthy than the testimony of Mrs. C. Lee Williams, the mother of three children and owner of a prosperous truck and poultry farm just outside of Marion, Ark., who says: "I feel that St. Joseph's G. F. P. has really saved my life or at least a long spell of illness which would have resulted in the loss of my farm. For over a year I felt myself going backwards. First I was bothered with pains in my back and head. They kept getting worse and worse and closer together until there was hardly a minute of the day that I was not in pain. I could not sleep and ate very little. In a short time I was so nervous and weak and suffered so much I could not do a thing and everything was going to piece. I was so blue and discouraged I did not know what to do." "A neighbor suggested that I take St. Joseph's G. F. With almost no experience I could feel coming back. I am on my sixth bottle now and feel better than I ever before. I have been before seemed almost impossible is a pleasure now. All that weak, dizzy feeling is gone, and I am never bothered. I have never felt worn-out and tired and my farm problems do not bother me even at my — time, as these are a stock work and absolutely painless." If your drugstress hasn't got G. F. P.

HOME ALMOST RUINED BY WIFE'S TROUBLE "I was so nervous and cross for over four years that my husband and son could hardly live with me," says Katie, who leads a leading Farmers out of Waelder, Tex. "Four or five days before my would start, I would cramp and have to go to the lower part of my stomach that I would have to go to bed. These spells left me so weak that I would go to bed every day at a time. And when I got up I would be so weak I couldn't do a thing around the house. Every time I would stoop over I would get so tired I would feel like I was going to faint. "I was getting worse every day, and it looked like I never would get well. I had tried almost all the medicines I could hope, when a friend, who is using it, told me to get some St. Joseph's G. F. P. and take it. Before I finished the first bottle, I was surprised to see that I had a better appetite and sleetter, but I got up in the morning feeling fine and began to do my work again. Today, I am on my fourth bottle of this wonderful medicine, and I thank you than I did a few weeks ago, and I am getting stronger and healthier all the time. During my time, I am not bothered by any symptoms, and I never think of getting in bed but go and do just as much as then at any other time." If your druggist hasn't got G. F.

"THE ONLY SURE WAY," REASONED THE DISCOVERERS OF G. F. P., "IS TO FIND THE THING THAT IS CAUSING ALL THIS PAIN AND SICKNESS AMONG WOMEN."

P.; Atlantic City Nurse Tries It and Is Getting Same Wonderful Results in Increased Vigor and Strength as Thousands of Our Women and Girls Who Are Using This Wonderful Treatment for "Female Trouble." "I suffered with cramps so severely during my — time that I could hardly bear the pain," says Mrs. Wally Marshall, 301 Penn Ave., Atlantic City, N. J., a pretty young nurse, who is prominent in social circles of the Race, there. "Sometimes I would have to draw up double and lie in that position for hours and when the pain would leave, I would feel so weak and tremble I could hardly get around. "I had tried different medicines and treatments for over two years, but instead of getting better I was getting worse. I read about St. Joseph's G. F. P. and how much good it is doing but never thought of taking it myself because the women it is helping seemed so far away. Think of my surprise when my druggist's wife, whom I had known for years, said, 'Yes, I am taking St. Joseph's G. F. P. and that is what is making such a wonderful improvement in my condition. Right then I bought a bottle and it was the luckiest day in my life. "Right from the start I felt better. I am now on my fifth bottle. I am never bothered with cramps or weakness and am growing stronger and healthier in every way. I eat and sleep well and have gained 13 pounds since I started taking St. Joseph's G. F. P." Mrs. Marshall is one of the thousands of our women who were troubled with the painful sufferings, and have been called "Female Troubles," and which it has now been definitely proven are nothing less than Catarrh of the Female Organs, in nine out of ten cases. Mrs. Marshall gets a foothold in woman's delicate organs it never lets go until the proper steps are taken to overcome it. These distressing disorders are often known as *St. Joseph's G. F. P.* to such an amazing extent that thousands of our weak, sickly women, who have been suffering for years, are unable to maintain utility, using it. Others are doing like Mrs. Marshall did. They are waiting in suffering until they actually see the improvement St. Joseph's G. F. P. has made in condition of their health and neighbor. If you are one of these weak, suffering women who feel tired, nervous, and weak, you suffer with backaches, headaches, pains in the back and sides, nausea, and terrible feeling of pain; you have terrible feeling of hension and dread of something about to happen; don't wait for someone to help you; you have to take the word of your sisters in suffering, to, to save you pain and misery, are so怒意 telling of their suffering, with this remarkable medicine If your drugstreet hasn't got G.

ASSONED THE DISCOVERERS THE THING THAT IS CAUS- SICKNESS AMONG WOMEN." INVESTICATION IS NOW RE- , AND NEW HOPES ARE UNFORTUNATE GIRLS AND G. F. P. RELIEVES. IN QUICK Thousands of our women in all walks of life are now praising the wonderful merits of St. Joseph's G. F. P. Stories of almost miraculous relief given them by this great medicine are being told in increasing numbers every day. Mothers who had weakened since baby's birth tell stories of regained strength and health. Women who have reached that period known as "change of life" relate experiences of easy transformation to -a robust, happy age. Business women and working girls tell how much more they can stand without getting tired out so quickly. In fact, they all seem to be so grateful for the freedom they now enjoy from that ever-present fear of periodical suffering of irregularity, pains, cramps and having to give up entirely at times. There seems to be no end to the good which this wonderful medicine does for womanhood. Those who tried operations and many other means that promised relief from the ailments which plagued them so and were unable to get relief are finding that they get quick and sure results by the consistent use of St. Joseph's G. F. P. For years before the introduction of G. F: P. women thought that possibly Nature intended they should suffer, because nothing seemed to given them any relief. This has been proven false by the discovery of this phenomenal medicine, which though it acts quickly and positively, nevertheless works in a natural and easy way. It gets rid of the cause in nine out of ten cases of women's weakness and sickness and stamps out the catarrhal inflammation of the generative organs, which has been proven brings about most of women's suffering. It further strengthens and builds up nerves, muscles and tissues, finally restoring the delicate female organs to full, natural and healthy condition so that they can function as they should. But, in order to get the results which the discoverers of St. Joseph's G. F. P. intended you should, it is necessary even with a medicine of its unusual merit to follow common sense rule of living, eating and pleasure. It is not sufficient just to take the medicine just as directed. In most cases it took time to tear down and weaken muscles and nerves, so it naturally takes time to build up and strengthen these parts of the body, until they are again normal. Nature is the greatest ally of medicine. Plenty of fresh air and sunshine along with well-prepared food and sanitary surroundings have proven of great help in many cases to the action of this wonderful medicine, St. Joseph's G. F. P.

Ten days ago four men were indicted upon the strength of "partial confessions" claimed to have been obtained by the county officials. The method in which these alleged confessions were received and given out to the public has been severely criticised. Hypothetical questions intricate enough to tangle an expert mind were showered at the accused, and they are believed to have signed statements condemning themselves without knowing the proper legal meaning of them. According to Sheriff Thomas Shirley and Solicitor Davis, the five who "confessed" were Peyton Johnson, Odell Jackson, Fred Glover Harry Reed and Mrs. Pearl-Jackson, wife Peyton, Shirley Alleges that he is the well-organized gang that held secret meetings and planned the whole-society murder. The weak link in the sheriff's statement is that no definite motive was established for the murders. No one has been able to communicate with the prisoners. When asked how the confessions were obtained, Sherif Shirley replied that he had used WordPress to create a secure system in the South is the worst type of third degree and has been known to bring confessions that were later taken. He said here that the accused men were tortured to such an extent that they sought relief at any cost, and citizens are the real criminals are yet at large. This theory is supported by statements that the type of persons accused were a character for three years. Persons here acquainted with some of the accused treat with indifference any reference regarding their guilt. He said here that for three years embarrassed the law enforcement officials and that so many people have been arrested and later released gives ground for further Citizens of Birmingham are considering raising a defense fund for the county to make the statement that he intends to file a damage suit of $50,000 against persons responsible for the death of Jonathan Johnson. All of the prisoners declared that they had been taken from their cells early one morning and dope was injected in their arms. All became unconscious and did not remember what happened, they said. He was sent to several days following this "truth seeking" treatment and were denied the privilege of communicating with the accused to see them. Attorneys, retained by citizens to defend the accused, were refused interviews and were arrested in connection with one of the ax murders, filed a suit against Tony and Ernest Romeo for alleged involvement in being arrested. He says he was kept several days in the city jail and later to the county jail to be held in his arm. He was later released, but claims he was severely injured by the injection and that it affected several parts of his The drug that is being used in known as scopolamine, and is the "discovery" of Dr. R. H. House, a doctor who declares it is without value, and morphine or cocaine would produce the same results. The experiments are being made only on persons who have been given the alleged confessions will have no standing in court, due to the fact that they were obtained under duress. Washington, D. C.

Its story is a chapter of Chicago history and likewise the story of Colored Chicago. Rub out one and you would read instead of great suffering, of unchecked disease. Erase the other and instead you would have a paragraph or so devoted to a trading post. Think back, but look forward; also press on. The fame of St. Luke's hospital is world-wide. Even doctors look up to it. In free, great, equality-boosting Chicago, Uncle Same's second city, St. Luke's is the only hospital where the color and race line is unknown. "Come all who suffer" is its motto. Jesus recognizes St. Luke's without much effort. The blood, the character, the intelligence of white, black and St. Luke's.

Thirty thousand Colored people have knocked on the door of St. Luke's since the Rev. Clinton Locke started that refuge "for the sick poor," and he has been knocked to every knock. Many places close up tighter when YOU knock. Is not that so? You are bound up in the history of St. Luke's first and second homes were in State St. Is not that a great street? It is called the artery of Chicago, but is the heart of the Promised land. Let the poet immortalize State St. Locke's daughters and mothers of soldiers fighting and dying to break up slavery and make you free—answered the Rev. Mr. Locke when he asked for help. After a while that same Rev. Mr. Locke asked for aid in helping Colored churchmen to build a Chicago parish. The church, the husbands and sons, gave you, under spur and lead of Locke, prince of priests, the, great St. New Orleans, La., Jan. 18—This city is up in arms at the prospective invasion of the barber shops by the feminine contingent which demands shampoos and hair cuts at prevailing barber shop prices on account of the high tariff charged by the beauty parlors. The leaders among the barbers have been putting their hands together to wield the power of the invasion of man's privacy. Now that the saloons are out of business the only place left for the poor man's club is the neighborhood barber shop. And now the women of the city tend to rob them of that last resort. It is rumored here that the barbers have hit upon a scheme to block the doorway so as to allow more as barbers to do the shaving and haircutting for the southerners in this city. The barbers are sure to have a special dare to foul southern tradition and prejudice in order to have their barber work done by Race men. Thus they have to keep the customs to keep their women in slavery and as usual use the Race as pawns in the game. The only voice who can stop them is to store them to their old position in the trade which they at one time controlled. It is an ill wind that does not blow somebody some good. BEATS WOMAN TO DEATH THEN COMMITS SUICIDE Massillion, Ohio, Jan. 18.—A series of domestic difficulties came to a tragic end last Thursday morning when George Russell died from drinking carbolic acid after having beaten Myrtle James, his paramour, to death at their apartment, 202 Lourel St., the night before. Russell, who was employed at the Hotel Sailor as janitor, came to work as usual Thursday morning, according to officials, but remained on board while he was in the long-awaited and returned that he bought a bottle of acid and returned to his rooms, where he was discovered a few minutes later by policemen, who had been called there by neighbors to investigate unusual noises. According to people who occupied the same building with Russell and Miss James, the couple had quarrelled and fought so often that no one paid any attention to them on Wednesday night when they were heard fighting. About 20 of the clock the next morning groans were heard in the room and the authorities were notified. Russell was found in a semi-unconscious state lying across the lifeless body of the woman. He was rushed to the City hospital, where he died at an hour and a half later. The room occupied by the couple was filled with officers arrived, giving mute evidence of the terrific struggle that went on and that a struck that queued Alison James' death. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER DAUGHTER USES GUN ON'DAD' To protect her mother, who was being assaulted by her enraged stepfather, Miss Margaret Rickmon, 21-year-old daughter of Mrs. Bessie Haynes, shot her stepfather, Robert I.

Miss Rickmon was placed under arrest by the Third district police department. Investigation as to the cause of the altercation and the subsequent shooting revealed the following: Accused was a woman and who intends to soon undergo an operation, her husband had been drinking Thursday. He overheard a conversation between her and another woman about her husband, Mrs. Haynes was teasing the other woman about him, she said, and her husband jealously accused her of An argument developed, then an altercation, in the midst of which Mary Hayes said she was knocked to the ground and told him to leave. Then her daughter seized a .25 caller automatic pistol and fired one shot at Hayes, bullet penetrating the back of his neck.

Household life, the lair the Jim Crow car, the MADMEN of Dixie, crief "Home free!" From Dixie came the old life, the old hearted life and the lair the daily press, that black and yellow Americans, men and women, who had fled from the land of oppression of men, from the white snow and the posthumous prosecution, were running from the first blast of Northern winter and racing away from the white snow and the back; God bless them, they are coming back home, Southern despatches, prepared by the KEPT HANDS OF SLAVERY, informed by HOME! BACK TO POVERTY AND DISEASE! BACK TO SHAME, TO DEATH, BACK TO THE ROPE AND THE TORCH! But the lie died in the wild winds of FREEDOM; died on the ground; that uttered it could close over the vulture teeth of revenge. THEY HAVE NOT GONE LOST. By the God above LOST ONES, they ARE NOT GOING BACK. "The cold, bitter North." Dixie RobBERS call Chicago, begging the burden bearers to stay or to return to the slime of former North.

The North is chilly, but the great, golden heart of the WHITE North is kindled by the POLLOCK PAINTS CHRIST AS A RAGGED JEWISH PEASANT Tuskegee, Ala., Jan. 18—Channing Pollock, author of the sensational drama, "The Fool," relates clearly the story of a young girl who, Dr. Robert R. Moton recently, when this gripping drama was presented by Mrs. Robert R. Moton, featuring the young girl, Katherine Kegge Players," comprising other members of the institute faculty. The telegram was as follows: "The telegram was as follows: my attending your performance of "The Fool." It seems to me the character of Gliclerr seeking to interpret the nature of the world through the aesthetic understanding in your Race. Christ was not the physically immaculate figure of the stained glass windows, he was a ragged and problematic child. He was rejected, persecuted. His appeal for brotherhood came from the experience of its lack. Our community may be unhappy to forget and exclude the Negro. Christ certainly would not. It is my earnest hope that in whatever my play may be, I will be able to imagine there may have been something to suggest higher aspiration in your Race and warmer sympathy under the guidance of the Negro (Signed).

THEY ARE NOT GOING BACK. The (ew—cur-like wanderers—who might return to slavery, the JIM CROW car and the land of concubinage at the first rattle of hearing made to SLAVES. Let them go and pray God that THEY WILL GET WHAT IS COMING TO ALL COWARDS.

PAGE FOUR—PART ONE BOY SCOUTS IN DRIVE FOR $1,000 The Chicago public is again applied to interest an interest in the moral, physical and intellectual development of its growing boys of today, who will be the men of tomorrow, and how to make of them the type of men who will be an honor in any community, is a question now confronting parents, school teachers and organizations. Not only is this a question, but a problem as well, and its solving presents a difficult task. The cause the boy is more susceptible to delinquent influences and, environments than he is to upplifting forces of character development. And because of this fact, and in order to halt the natural tendency of gambling dens and other resorts, all resorts so prevalent in Chicago and all large cities, and to offer him a lifelong lifting substitute, there came into existence a great organization known as the Boy Scouts of America, supported by the citizens of Chicago throughout the civilized world, who willingly and freely give their efforts, and means to save and make a boy of today the man of tomorrow. Molds Character The object of the Boy Scout movement is to train and mold the character of boys to be outwardly that they may become outwardly that they may become more man and useful citizens. The scout is more spiritual than fundamentally religious. It for boys of all races, classes or creeds, and speaks the universal language of the world to keep himself "physically strong, mentally awake and morally upright, to keep himself calm and turn daly. He is trained to fight fire, control crowds, give first aid and to save life. He is taught to think critically, to can institutions and ideals; his teachings tend to minimize racial prejudice and discrimination. The Scout is just a brief introduction to the Scout movement, of its principles, which are instituted into the heart of the Scout movement, to appeal to every mother and father in Chicago, who is interested in the development of right thinking and right conduct, and should be an incentive to the means in support of the movement. Launches Financial Drive In view of this fact, the Chicago council of the Boy Scouts of America is launching a financial drive in the city to offer the organization on the South side. To this end an initial campaign meeting was held Friday at the Michigan Street St. and Michigan Blvd., at which a coterie of representative citizens was present. They were George R. Bush, Jr.; M. C. A. C.; Samuel E. White; Attorney Henry H. Wammond, counselmaster of the Douglas district; Dr. Joseph D. Bibb, commissioner of the Boy Scouts of the Douglas district; Dr. H. Reginald Smith; Joseph D. Bibb; Carrol C. Bibb; and the South district chief and Prof. Nathan Plimpton (white) of the University of Chicago, chairman of the organization. From these men will come an appeal to the Chicago public to aid and thus save Chicago boys through this organization. The cause is a worthy one and because of its worthiness the public is expected to re Too much cannot be done. Scout representatives say, to keep the boys out of the slums that infect this city, to keep the boys of boys to see to it that sooner or later they become affiliated with the Boy Scouts of America. If this is not done, the boys will want and seek to make many men of their boys, will be much easier.

The main theme of the speech was a contrast drawn between conditions as they existed 20 years ago and as they exist today. Emphasize was laid upon the fact that much is expected of those who have had opportunities that were denied the passing generation of the Race. "There are 50,000 men and women of our Race who have hoped and prayed that their young people would be trained, not only in Clark, Morchouse, Atlanta university, Howard, Lincoln and others, but in the best institutions; side by side with young people of other races who have had the opportunities that you have been denied. But these people have not prayed that you be trained from them—but TO them." And the speaker explained that there is a tendency for the younger members of the Race to take their training too lightly and when it is too late, they regret it. "You are trained, if trained at all, for service," he concluded.

CHICAGO SOCIETY Her Dream Realized- EVERY young woman like Mrs. McAndless before her marriage dreams dreams and has visions of her ideal home with her husband, and healthy, happy children to make her joy complete. But as time goes on her dreams are not realized, she has no children, her life is embittered and it is hard for her to be reconciled to the conditions as they exist. To every young woman who is in this condition the following letter should bring hope and encouragement, as we know of numberless homes that have been blessed with children, just as this home was, after all hope had been abandoned. Here Follows Mrs. McAndless's Personal Letter: "Just a few lines to let you know Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did for me. I was married going on three years without having any children and finally I went to a doctor and was taking treatments twice a week for pains every month. I used to lie in bed three or four days with them and the doctor would call and inject something into my arm to put me asleep so I would not feel the pains. At last she said I would have to be operated on if I wanted any children. Well, I just happened to go to see a friend with her first baby and he I was going to the hospital, and she said, 'Don't do it! You need get a bottle of him vegetable compound and you need any operation.' So my husband gave me a little rattle. No I want two lovely children. Believe me, I recommend the Vegetable Compound to any woman I know has any kind of female trouble. It has helped me and a lot of my friends." -Mrs. A. McAULENES, 1709 S. Morgan St., Chicago, Ill.

McCormick to Get Votes of DePriest Club South Side Voters Pledge Their Full Support for the Republican Senator B. DEWEY B. JONES BY DEWEY J. RONES In a speech to the Ward Republican organization, headed by Oscar DePriest, at the Greater Bethlehem A. M. E. church Monday evening, he criticized his campaign for support of the South siders in his drive for re-election to succeed himself. Mr. McCormick spoke for an hour, setting forth his reasons for the different acts of the South siders, and adversely criticized, and recalling those acts for which he has been praised. He also criticized those he concluded, he is entitled to the support of the Third warders. "I cannot be other than your friend," he said. "Every other true American—whatever his origin may be. My mother was brought up on the underground railroad, and I broke with his great friend, Abraham Lincoln, because Lincoln postponed the Constitution's annulance of the In speaking of criticism directed at him because of the heretofore unheard of the Senate, towards our people the Senator said: "I am accountable to you as citizens of this state for what I do in a public manner, for what some other person does." Has Little Hope for Dyer Bill Mr. McCormick next touched upon the subject of the Dyer anti-lynch bill. After telling of some of the reasons for his last session that thwarted the passage of the measure Senator McCormick introduced again. It may pass the House, but I would be false to you if I said that with so much pressure the Senate I love it will be brought to a vote before the presidential election. I'll not be surprised if the Senate He then expressed an optimistic opinion that American conscience is becoming aroused by the crime of an unchanging is dying because of public disfavor. The senator cited as his evidence the killing in 1923 as compared with 1922. Mr. Abbott Speaks And on through a correlation of points, speaking with an almost inimitable appearance of sincerity, Senator McCormick spoke of his nomination six years ago—of his election and of his speech by saying: 'I am your senator. If I have failed you in aught, rebuke me; if I have discharged my duty as a senator, when I return me so that my growing influence may be strengthened.' Shema greeted me upon the platform and rousing cheers followed him at the close of his speech. Immediately following the subsiding of the applause, he sat upon the platform andSummer in which the organization pledged itself to support Senator McCormick. The speaker was preceded upon the platform by Robert S. Abbott of the Chicago Defender, who presented one of the most powerful speeches Abbott's speech expressed an impatience with certain American conditions that make it possible for the American to be discriminated against while they possess the only means of curing that evil—the ballot. The South side votes Other speakers were Bishop A. J. Carey and Colonel Franklin A. Denison, who introduced the speaker of the evening. Oscar DePriest presided over the service on Monday night.

Dear Princess: I have come to you for advice. I am 25, my husband is 40. He does not make much money, but he wants me to stay at home and not work. I love him dearly and he does all he can for me. There is a man who wants to buy me nice things to buy. Do you think I accept his advice? My husband tells me to wait, it won't be long, but I am so tired of waiting for the change to come. I love my husband and he loves me. I don't know what to do. Whatever you say for me to do, I will. —Worried Girl. I realize that it is very discouraging for any young woman to be shabby and clad these way, when it seems that women lie with each other in wearing expensive clothing, still honesty and respectability are the greatest covering that any female can have, so therefore I advise you to resist all advancements from men who claim they want to "dress you up" and make a queen of you, when in doing so they always look as if they were a girl. Your good male and your chance to hold your head up as other clean and decent women do. This man might not buy you any more clothing than your husband can just now, he might be only making his strong point on what he knows you are weak on. Clothes don't make the man; they simply decorate him, and I am sure if you are patient and true you must be more than you can do. You have a clothing and an unstained character at the same time. Princess Mysteria: Please tell me if I have taken the right course. I will abide by your decision. I loved a girl and we wanted a friend. I was very 老成, with married woman and we finally agreed to go away. This was two years ago. I never did love her. We returned to the same town and my assessor told me I felt it not to go away toward me. I felt it keenly and it hurt me. I went to see the girl I had loved and still love telling her all and she was so very, very good, very 老成 and am trying to make a new start in life for my future wife and myself. My married friend learned of my great health and was very good to love the great deal with letters of love, threats and pleadings. I have paid her little or no attention. I am sorry and ashamed of it all. Please tell me what I am an orphan since infancy. Philander: To sow wild oats is to reap sorrow and oftimes disgrace, but when one is willing to be in love, I need to be a mistake that were made, there is sympathy due that one and assistance should be given if needed. A girl who can forgive is to try to give a wrong way. It was the one you did her worth her weight in gold, and I hope you will make her glad that she did forgive you. If you were the woman I just would be only of sin of you to care. So, she has no quarters to ask and none should be given her. If you wish to do right now and she wish to continue her strong-whelpers, she is here too long. You are not responsible for it. You are in the right path, keep going. Dear Princess: Please help me. I. have been a student. I have been married and I have been married to me. I to be married. --- PAGE FIVE—PART ONE otherwise Mysteria **Princess Mysteria** u that he was anxious for a home, so I went to work and made a home for him, and I slight, for I wanted a home more than I did anything. I had plenty of clothing, so I went to work and made a home for me, a months ago. I had an operation and she have not been well since. My work he seems unwilling to do the slightest thing for him, so I told him it was like slavery, so he gave it up. What do you think of a home to give to a sarming man? He has husbands and home. I believe he fears he will hurt his husbands and home. He has no bad habits, but because of his stupid unconcern and selfish people, I failure, ill with no one to care for me. What shall I do? 50? I sometimes believe mine is bad luck as everyone seems unkind to me for no reason at all. There are many men who are prone to laziness and would rather simply exist than to live. These men are usually the kind who get good wives who sacrifice and wear themselves threadbare for nothing. There are men who look for the easy and smooth road to success and will console themselves year after year into the belief that something will come their way next year. Your husband is one of this kind. He is doing as well now as he will ever do, so you are wasting time expecting more of him. He will listen to those who have no interest in his rather than use his own brain in accomplishing something. I agree with you when you say you are out of patience. You would be a wonder if you were not. Try to get your health back and then you can show him that you are capable of doing more for yourself than he has ever done for you. Each and every name means something, but not in the light of good or bad fortune. Your surroundings are detrimental to your well-being, consequently unhappiness and misery at tend you. Above all, fight melancholy and lack of faith. As we trust, so shall we be rewarded. Dear Princess Mysteria: I feel downhearted and I am asking for your help. I am not sure if I will be separated from my wife five months. I found her unfailable. With her, I was not sure if for divorce, but lost the case. Now she is very sick and I am asking for my help. I would not wait until she got well, but that I would never come into the house where she was. I will serve this to you. D.B. that you are absolutely right in your stand against your wife. It is very gracious in you to care for her. I will serve this to you. I serve this from you. Her 'sweet' letters are nothing more than insults to her. I am not sure if I will enough to believe that she means what she says. Let her alone or she will ask what happens next time than she did before.

But the main reason for it usually is that they let such things as pimples rash, 'breakening creases over face, and face, neck, hands or arms make them feel that they are not wanted around and they keep to themselves too much, life as anyone.

In the East last year and the critics were a unit in declaring it to be one of the greatest plays in the past decade. The story tells of the manner in which a man of wealth and prominent in society declares to his friends that he can marry a woman of questionable character and bring her to his level through association and direct contact. He selects a woman who has had many affairs with men and who had carried from time to time, half a dozen different "Mrs." He marries her and to her credit it can be said that she made for him a true and faithful wife and by her actions actually gained his love and respect. His friends, however, desert him one after another until he is almost a social outcast. There is a beautiful young daughter, the fruits of his first marriage. She returns from a school where she had spent many years. She fails to show friendship for her foster mother and in an interesting scene with the latter she declares that she can see through the veneer of decency the true character of the woman. The efforts to bring the two to an understanding show the man to be a wonderful character. He fails, however.

The band consists of piano, clarinet and saxophone, trumpet, trombone and drums. Thompson is the drummer and he is a good comedian as well. The band plays a lot of jazz stuff and they get the sort of Ethiopian kick into their musical stuff that only Afro-American musicians can produce. Thompson interpolates some eccentric strutting that's the moods, and the jazz numbers by Miss Kemp are also extremely well delivered. The Thompson turn was a riot Tuesday night.

Burdensome taxation takes money from the government, and it is difficult to hide or into tax-exempt securities; prevents development; causes hoarding; injures business; puts the greatest burden and hardship on the wage-earner; kills prosperity; lessens productivity work; raises prices and the cost of living.

I have often wondered how State Wright and his famous orchestra could secure enough work in three states to keep them booked solid year in and year out. Well, the secret was exposed last week. Mr. Wright secured my services to sing with his orchestra at the Progress club, which is an organization consisting of the wealthiest Jews. Well, it is like the old story about good whisky or wine—the older it gets the better it is. I will state that this is one of the best orchestras of its size in America. I asked State Wright how old he was when he organized his first orchestra. He stated that he was just 21 years of age. I didn't have the nerve to ask him how long ago that had been, but I felt in my pocket and found that I only had a medium-size lead pencil in length, and I realized that I did not have enough pencil to figure out this mathematical problem. But, nevertheless, State has an orchestra of real merit. This is why he is booked for life. Jack Taylor that fighting boy from Omaha, Neb.: Joe Lawson, the heavyweight who was sparring partner with Jack Dempsey two years ago, and myself had quite a pleasant time together the afternoon before his fight here at the Chamber of Commerce with Tute Jackson. Oh, Tony, that is some fighting boy. It was really lucky for our Ohio boy that he was fouled, because it looked bad for him from the first round. This Mr. Taylor is a real fighter and a gentleman, which means much for the success of a Negro pulpitist. I'm just in receipt of a letter from Russell Smith, the chorus director of the Sissle and Blake "Shuffle Along" company. He states that the show is hanging up the sold-out sign at every performance this week in Syracuse, N.Y. I have just finished a new composition entitled, "If I Could Only Hear From My Boots." The same will be of the press in two weeks. Since the dawn of history mankind has been searching the future for ideas and remedies. We know that remedial agent menthol comes from a distant land across the sea. Japan: camphor from the mountain jungles of Formosa. The oil of eucalyptus comes from Australia, oil of Juniper tar from the stony waste of northern Africa, land of Arab-shelf and wandering Bedouin; but pray tell me where the idea brightened, and what will be the remedy? No cure, the so-called small town orchestra booker who tries to rob the traveling orchestral of its own name by saying that this is one of his persons. A traveling orchestra coming through Columbus will call upon Mr. A., who is known to have an orchestra and plenty of work in the seafield territory. The manager of the traveling orchestra decides engagements for his band. Mr. A. tells him that he can give him a job for a few engagements, but he cannot use his original name. It will be necessary that the traveling orchestra be called Mr. A.'s Famous Snappy Ten, because the people would not dance by an orchestra unless his name was upon the drums, regardless of merit. Yet these same orchestra bookers' names have no professional merit or recognition and they have hardly seen Broadway, N. Y. in the history of the world. After two years of experience in the music industry, I wrote a quote that I now am associated with one of the largest booking associations in the music industry. The Nero theatrical and orchestra department performs, musicians and organized orchestras that we have a remedy for. And organized orchestras to get in touch with them will be in the "old reliable" week after next. Well, old pal, I will not worry about hearing of me singing my blues. I will hear of me singing my blues, even your pal. Howard C. Washington, Washington Musical Bureau, Columbus, ANNIVERSARY SHOW By BILLY PIERCE New York, Jan. 18.—The anniversary week offering at the Lafayette theater by Messrs. Coleman brothers was one of the best bills that Harlemites have had the pleasure of enjoying for some time. A vaudville bill of excellent attractions was the offering. It is frequently said of prominent performers that once they have achieved success among a certain beaten path it is almost impossible for them to change and they are content to go on playing the same old act notwithstanding the retarding effect it has upon their artistic growth. Not so with the Watts brothers. If versatility is a test of players, then the Watts brothers who have for possibly 16 years done a purely musical act under cork, launched into a surefire talking act that went over blue, augmented by a hit of playing on their cornet and trombone. Cook and Smith were the same laugh getters in the "Bootlegger." Miss Eileen Flory, a singer of songs with a wonderful personality, pleased, and she could dance. The "Blue Devil," a pyramid act, and an excellent balancing act, were the features of an out of the ordinary bill. Monte Blue is entertaining at the Lincoln Inn, Duquesne, Pa. KNOWN AUDIENCE OF DEPARTMENT MOTION PICTURES. OVER 4,000,000 CONSTANTLY growing audience is one of the surest signs that the actors are "putting their stuff across". Such an audience will be able to see and interact during its short activity in the motion picture industry, in which time it has acted as a scenario writer, film director and maker. This is an important aspect of making and showing of motion pictures. All players are anxious to know how their efforts are lined and are immensely pleased at large and the success of its efforts by recording wherever practicable the number of places where department films have been shown and the number of people who have seen them. In the United States numbered 4,460,000, but the probable audience not on record was many times that number. The audience is constantly growing, growing by the requests for more movies. Access to more department films are being sent out to county agents, extension leaders and other agricultural workers, and more and more people are involved in the messages of better agricultural practices which they carry. The motion picture has likewise been of the greatest service in the field of motion picture making. The department's collection of motion pictures now numbers The department's collection of motion pictures now numbers 172 distinct subjects on major agricultural activities. The popularity and effectiveness with which these films have been used is no doubt due in large measure to the care with which they are produced with regard to facts and details. The educational film classes are being regularly used is the system of visual instruction classes in the District of Columbia public schools. These classes are conducted by the school officials in co-operation with a chain of commercial theaters.

This is ETHEL WATERS Ethel Waters is to the popular song world in the "Blue" line what Roland Hayes is to the concert world. Assisted by an accomplished pianist, Miss Pearl Right, and the clever dancer, Ethel Williams, she turned them away each night at the Washington and packed a midnight show. Ethel Waters possesses a personality all her own. Crackshot and Hunter were the outstanding comedy hit of the bill. They are favorites here and gained for themselves a reception on their entrance. The bill opened with a novelty, Alfred Drew, who does a neat little juggling act, using clubs, battle axes, balls and hoops. Every trick was heartily applauded, which shows that Indianapolis is hungry for acts of that kind. Seamore and Kitchen, a new act—man and woman—went over for a solid hit. The male member is a good talker and dancer, while the little lady did a contorsist dance that went over with a bang. Lonnie Fisher did a single, and so much has been said of Fisher in my column It is unnecessary to say he had difficulty in leaving the stage. M.

DELANEY AND DELANEY One of the best, and naturally one of the most popular turns on-the-T. O.-B. A. circuit. Is that of Delaney and Delaney, Both Tom and Peart Delaney claim, Baltimore, Mid., as they "home town," and their old Balto should be as proud of them as they apparently are of it. Tom is a real comedian and the support given him by his pretty and accomplished wife in their "Fifteen Minutes out. They carry a line of new talk; a word of clean comedy, do a bit of all sorts of dancing and put over their own original song numbers. No audience or manager could ask for No audience or manager could ask for DELANEY AND DELANEY more. Add to, this the fact that the turn is one of the best dressed in the business and it will be plain to you why the Delaneys enjoy so much popularity and why their route is "consecutive." Among the songs for which Tom is personally responsible and which are used in the act is "Miss Lizzie Can Strut No More," and "I've Cried My Last Time Over You." Both numbers are timely and go over with the well-known bang. He also wrote the famous hit which made Ethel Waters, the record star, famous. "Down Home Blues." Keep your eye open for this pair. THE GEORGIAS Eldmont, Alta., Canada. Friend Tony's - A few lines to let you know the Georgians are still moving and not froze up, although it has been very cold in the weather, last 10 days.

Next week, first three days at Calgary, Alta., then three one-nighters into Spokane, Wash., week of 20th.

Old man Jameson has established himself in the village of King's Creek like a car, brooking no outside interference and the form of official law, especially the Texas Rangers, who he has much cause to fear on account of his many injuries. The hero of the story, Tom Hardy (Leo Maloney), is one of the most famous Rangers and is a victim to inquests. He and goes to the ranch from which the complaint is received but finds the spot by the rancher's dog, Bullet. In the rancher's death agony, he has managed to scratch on the sand and ultimately acts out accompanied by the dog, who has attached himself to the ranch, but the sheriff refuses to go on account of the bad reputation of the Jameson clan, so Tom goes without On the way to King's Greek romance creeps in. A girl fishing in the lake and in so doing hooks Tom in the hand, making a bad wound. The girl is coming up to house to have his wound treated in it and he is amazed to find himself in the Jameson home and the girl is scared. Complications quickly follow thrilling drama and senational episodes and Tom uses all his strategy to save the girl. The escape is consummated by the arrest of the assassin of the rancher. Tom wires the girl and also convicts her. The law of the state is above all. SMITH AND JOHNSON The following letter arrived from Dear Friend. Just a line to say we are happy New Year.

GUMMED UP A letter arrived late last week, sent by Gene Bell of Bell and Bell, the well-known vaudeville act. Gene is all locked up in fall at Corpus Christi, Texas, and says that it will cost him $25 to hire a lawyer.

JANUARY 19. 1924 When Syllia Billings first saw Cyclone Jones, he was wiping up the earth with an adversary. A woman's under the under dog, and Syllia came upon the scene to see the unprovoked and unexpected assault upon Jones. So believing him to be a bully her heart was torn up and she fought友利 advances and landmishments. Nothing daunted. Jones persists in acting cordially toward Syllia and tries to help her father, whom unfriendly cattlemen seek to drive out from the country. Not until after Cyclone has her life once more been father's hard place due to the hands of an unscrupulous gang, does Syllia realize that the audacious cowpuncher has won her love. She escapes and cowboy exploits render "Cyclone Jones," featuring Big Boy Williams, a red-blooded western attraction, will be shown at the Staten theater on Saturday of the present week. DAVE AND TRESSIE Dave and Tressle, with their great jazz band, are proving to be a complete knockout all along the line. The bunch, aside from the two stars themselves, includes Stanley Williams leader, saxophone; Jim Palco, saxophone; June Clark, cornet; James Harris, trombone; A. J. Spaulding, piano; John Lee, banjoos; Raymond Green, drums. The act is headed for the East with contracts taking them directly into New York City. Here is a clipping from the Lansing (Mich.) State Journal: "Jazz from start to finish is the act put on by Dave and Tessle and their Syncooped Gingersnaps. The Ginger-snaps make up an orchestra just about as good as any heard here this season, while Dave and Tessle dance and sing their way through the act in a manner that draws lots of enthusiastic applause. Several members of the orchestra prove themselves real comedians during the course of their performance, and in every way the act gives a fitting close to a good bill of entertainment." The act is playing the present week at the Palace theater, Detroit, Mich. NEW SHOW Joe Simms, one of the comedy stars with Sissie and Blake's "Shake Along," will be playing the Welding theater. Syracuse will play into hearsal for "Shuffle of 1924." The show will be for Joel and John, those that are wonderful.

I've been very old. I came, I saw. I conquered. These are the words that are being used all this week by three of the greatest novelties or the American stage, a national start of all that great American musical organization. Shuffler, Albany, next to the one and only. Initial Bill Robinson (being our old pallet jangles), and last but not least, your humble servants, Naomi and her Brilliant Boys. And in answer to our beautiful "S" in the "came". I saw. I conquered. The native is the all added the time-worn slang phrase: "I'll stay with you." Tony. I hope to smoke the rubber boot if it wasn't one of the durdest show weeks the Capital Twinkled. I even if it was an array of Racial�s. I could only swoop down on more cities like it did where it is the week. I think that old man prejudiced would have to take the count. And the beauty part of it is, there are to be great aftermaths which some times have not been many of the brethren rather at once. Everyone left a beautiful name and I say the town people are mourning the loss of such a wonderful bunch of people. We alarmed, oiled and greased (also gassed) our famous Buck Six last Sunday morning and started for the last two days. (Albany). It was a beautiful day and the sign of snow. But after we had jaunted to some kind of up to Peekskill we ran into snow and plenty of it. Then we got out and chained all four wheels and coaxed our team to act, to a sensible, promising life that if it would only be a one-hour on an extra quart of alcohol, a bath, and also allow it to remain in a garage for the week. Tony, I don't know which one who the three inducements caused (the good water) to be accident (little guess) we arrived in Albany. But here begins a sad tale. I had never lied to my car before and now I know my car is no good as a bribe to the motor in case of an air condition on a motor home. I put it in a garage as I promised and I also ordered a wash and polish fob put on her. But when it came to putting in a quart of alcohol, the one-Selling (being Tash-Hammed) and Geeking-Selling. Shek of the Underworld) said that if I put a quart of alcohol in a radiator and not in them after freezing them for six hours, it would be Naomi and Her Brilliant. It is not, boys. Well, as we are still using the biting "boys," you can age your own. Imagine our surprise to find Bobi Jones here and also Shuki Along. Here we play Albany and are switched on Thursday. We left the stage hot here and the room cold, and we degrees hotter for us over in Troy. Shuki Along packed and jammed up, and we were a number of the stars, including Miss Lotte Gee and our old friend, Joe Jacques. A number of the girls,ances. Joe told me to tell you, Tony, that after seeing the act he now knows why we have no open time on our route, Joe Jacques is dressing room we had to put on our sun goggles as the old boy is all lighted up. We say that they say are mixed in Africa. Shuffle Along closes in two weeks and goes in rehearsal for the 1924 edition. From what little I heard of the book it is going to be a whing. B. C. Washington's millionaire's lack of the new show. More power to you, boys, and may your seasons be numerous and prosperous. We are motoring today from here to Binghampton. N.Y. for the first half and I thach the last half. Did you receive that, sent you for Christmas? I never heard from you, so I guess you figured if you couldn't speak well of them, you wouldn't speak at all. Ha. ha! Just for that I hope all your children are acrobats and stay on our shoes. I will now close. Remembering my wife and self to all our friends along the route where we have stopped. With lindest regards to yourself and the "World's Greatest Weekly," I am.

I am very happy to see you at home later, some live boy to keep you posted about our town from now on. Some wiseacore took it upon himself to answer the question of my theater for my theater, the Dixie, a simple, because closed it down for a while. I have not advertised for any managers and men to see it. I am hopeless to want to pull, few more fights there and train my boys. I have staged 'six goes there and have had success thus far, many of the Rays of New York and Billy Sower Jack Rays, and I have been a banner house. Ray won over Hooper in 40 sessions I still have him in the town and am pulling my next shot to go to the Laurel Park. I just justதly lasted a two weeks engagement at the Grand here and played to good houses both weeks. I don't bear on your good nature further, but will have something worth while for you next week. Hope all the boys that are writing in here looking for a job as manager, turn their old manager to direction, and am still manager of the Dixie theater. Wishing all a prosperous new year, and hoping that your avoidance will not hamper your progress, remain Yours ever. You are ever. JACK L.

YOUTH AND THE daily attendance at America William A. Johnston in the 6,000,000. Mr. Johnston thinks that the duty of those who read them, starting quality, like the total of a correct, but looks much larger who hazard recollection. This important character of his admissions to the dominance of an art strain in easier of understanding. The "fegit 15,000 stages and 6,000,000 daily dined churches of America never a week from anything like 85 per students. Mr. Johnston is in a wholly an apologist for the existing citing to read his admissions to both of production and distribution says in summary, "is largely gue largely a potter game." But he p (he believes that the system of distires, has rushed some producers ones. Just what can be done he recommended, a very clear diagnosis. Mr. Johnston's article, however, defining the nature and size of our he presents, it is difficult not to the social importance of the motive work and as a coercion it may public responsibility has been very variation which the cinema in American Globe. YOUTH AND THE MOVIES HE daily attendance at American motion picture theaters, says William A. Johnston in the Saturday Evening Show, is 6:00 p.m. on the 100-km�ka's road, 6,000,000 "youth" for the most important element. He quotes a Russell Sage foundation committee on a questionnaire covering 37,000 high school students, showing that "83 per cent of the boys and "30 per cent of the girls, the most important movie theater. These statistics will probably accord with the daily observation of most of those who read them. Yet they will probably also have a startling quality. The little total of all will be more than the total of all, and the total of all will be more than the total of all. The information of the footed up than it did in happazard recollection. The importance of Mr. Hays' efforts to make cheaper and better pictures, and of Mr. Zukor's attempts to secure the information of the art, the information of the "fugitive" theaters never commanded to enter your understanding. The "fugitive" theaters never commanded to enter your understanding. The "fugitive" theaters never commanded to enter your understanding. The "fugitive" theaters never commanded to enter your understanding. Mr. Johnson is in a wholly sincere and straightforward fashion, an apologist for the existing cinema order. It is accordingly Interstating. It is the most important media, especially the film, both of production and distribution. "The manufacture of films," he says in summary, "is largely gueswork, and the selling of them largely a poker game." But, but point out, the "goods" of the film are, "it is the most important one to be increasingly good, and he believes that the system of distribution by demanding many pictures has beversed. He has been unnecessarily poor one, and when some producers into making unnecessarily poor one, they have to be very clear diagnosis of a rather beafishing case. Mr. Johnston's article, however, does a recognizable, service in defining the nature and size of our problem. Looking at the figures in the article, it is clear that the social importance of the motion pictures falls far short of the truth. And as a corollary it may be assumed that the acknowledged public responsibility has been very law in proportion to the obligation which the cinema in American evidently represents—New York The Famous Georgia Minstrels are playing the week at Alcatra, Albuquerque, and Delaware are playing the week at Loew's theater, Montreal, Canada.

The Keith circuit, which a few weeks ago opened the great Hippodrome as a showing place for world's greatest saudilling market, was the place of the Palace. New York's vaudeville house de luxe, to their own program immediately following the first show of the week at the latter theater. The following clipping will tell you the story: Thompson and Covan. Colored boys, who were too late to find Monday night. The official on it is that they stopped the show Monday matinee with an act so pat for the Hip that the pair were moved there instanter. Meegan and Newman were rushed in, but not fast enough to take the place to do so for the morning to advance. Because their plane couldn't be shoved through the Four Casting Stars' set, all choked up to the curtain line with intricate wires supporting their perches and irrappolling net. So the Pathe news steel followed, and the pinch-hitters went on fourth for that session. "Hot Feet." with Will Masten.

This amount has been recommended by Hutgert. Work, secretary of the interior, the department under which the university government appropriations are expended and by the United States. This appropriation asked for the coming fiscal year is more than three times the amount provided for the current year. New appropriations proposed include $212,500 toward the construction of a gymnasium, urinary and administrative headquarters for a departmental increase of $78,500 over the current account; $370,000 for additions to the medical school building, and $130,000 for equipment.

WOMEN'S EXCHANGE NEWS Running and developing a magazine is no small undertaking, as the record of many failures in that field will show. Mrs. Joanna Snowden Porter, who for years has been an indefatigable worker in various good causes, is the editor of the Colored Women's Exchange News in Chicago. This magazine is dedicated to the interests of the Northwestern Federation of Women's clubs and to the interests of women generally. The 16 pages which go to make up the magazine are printed in workmanlike fashion and the paper used is of better than average quality for a magazine of this size and clientele. The editor keeps her organ abreast of the leading topics of the day and the race. Race interest she can be depended upon to give her readers the latest news and the strong organ of this kind for our women and for our homes. This and prosperity which ought to come to a worthy enterprise run in the proper spirit of pride and service to the advancement of one's fellow men. A BAD COMPLEXION MAKES PEOPLE SHY A heartening and yet interesting thing happened in a down town store when a middle aged lady got into what I want, she wanted. she kept saying, "I have tried all those other things, but know from the experience of mine, that it is Blank and White Ointment which gets rid of these pimples and blotches. I was just as pretty as any girl when I was in the store, and now I am in the fix you see." So many people are now insisting that rid of pimples, blotches, eczema, rash tetter, ringworm, "breaking out," etc., because they see and hear of the rid of pimples, blotches, eczema, rash tetter. they can depend on it. And it is more economical, too. The 50c size contains three times as much as the liberal 25c size. All dealers have it— May Song ALBERTA HUNTER she has a ha That's why she mount Records.

This gives an average of 3.6 persons per square kilometer. The area of Brazil is just a little less than that of China (greater than that of China proper), with her 400,000,000 of people.

SANHEDRIN IDEA DRAWS APPROVAL OF JEWISH RACE Washington, Jan. 18.—An interesting and thoughtful reflection on the coming all-Race conference, or "Negro Sanhedrin" to be held in Chicago, Ill., on Feb. 17, 2014, received by Dean Kelly Miller, chairman of the committee of arrangements, from Dr. Abram Simon, president of the central conference of American rabbis and former president of the board of education of the District of Columbia, to the letter sent by Dr. Simon follows; "Your pamphlet on the Nerger Sanhedrin is a sane, vigorous and huming book. The plan presents an excellent opportunity for dynamic unity and spiritual self-expression. Your book is a reflection by the traditions that clustered about the Napolonic Sanhedrin. Remember please, that the Jews in their body of doctrine, civil practices and rabbinic legislation that were hangovers from the days of their independence, the construction of the Jewish state by Rome. Congress of Notables. "Because of the disparity between century long practice and the entrance into the rights of French citizenship a new reading of the relationship between citizenship became a necessity. Hence, the wisdom of Napoleon's convolution of the Sanhedrin, which however, was shortened. The Sanhedrin was a new institution of Notables which used the Sanhedrin as a vehicle for interpreting the Jew's newer understanding of the law, and pered by the traditions of an ancient legislation. You can begin afresh. The various national civic institutions of Negro notables whose scholarship, leadership, and civic qualities will command the respect of all. Such a commitment is the need if properly organized without the necessity of fashioning a Sanhedrin which resembles too much of a supreme court, and will be an impertinent judge of an imperialio in imperio. "At any rate, I welcome the call for a new generation of unified dignity. I shall watch the growth of this awakening race conceive of a soul-culture with keenest interest." College Men Join In addition to this evidence of the increasing interest being manifested in the movement, Dean Miller has received word from a number of imitators of the country signifying their intention of sending 10 delegates each to the conference. Among the various organizations sending such notification, the first and oldest Greek letter society organized by Negro college men. According to a statement by Dean Miller the sending of this information to the conference on the part of this fraternity is highly significant in that it indicates that the Negro college youth is awake to the responsibilities which he must take in order to prove proper recognition of his race in world affairs." CHAPLAIN STEWART, OLD ARMY MAN, DIES AT: WILBERFORCE Wilberforce, *Ohio*, Jan. 18.—Rev. Theophilus G. Stewart, D. W. $8, one of the professors of Wilberforce Theology and a retired chaplain of the 25th United States infantry, died suddenly at 4 o'clock Friday after home of Bishop Benjamin P. Lee. Rev. Stewart suffered an attack of acute indigestion Wednesday night on Thursday. On Friday morning he was feeling much improved and went to his classes. On returning to his classroom, he struck, resulting in his sudden death. Rev. Stewart was one of the leading ministers in the A. M. E. church writer. He was vice president of Wilberforce from 1908 until 1918, when he asked to be transferred to the church there until his death. He was chapman of the 25th United States infantry from 1881 until 1907, when he removed from Wilberforce, where he resided his home. He was a well known writer and his works are used in a number of books written "The History of Hall" and "Fifty Years in the Ministry" which was completed a short time after he was a Negro Soldier of the United States Army. He had taken a number of trips abroad and made trips around the world, where he was proficient in French and Spanish, which he taught at the university. Stewart was born in Gouldon, near Bridgeton, N. J. April 15, 1843. He was married twice, his first wife having died a number of years ago in despair about the life he preceded in death. He was Dr. Maria Stewart, a well known physician in New York city, who was the number years the resident physician Stewart is survived by five sons, Charles Stewart, a dentist in Boston; Frank Stewart, a prominent lawyer in Kansas City, Mo., and Dr. Stewart, a chemist in Chicago; Prof. T. Bolden Stewart, teacher in the high school in Kansas City, Mo., and Prof. T.

Short services were held with military honors in the auditorium of the Hall Sunday morning and the remainng taken to Gouldown for interment. --- How Congressman Wm. Upshaw and His Ilk "Steal in Politics" It is not at all surprising to hear such men as Congressman Upshaw, who represents one of the worst states in the Union, uphold the methods used there to hinder the Race. If all the methods and ways used to keep the Negro from voting in the Union, uphold known his statement would not be so bold. He knows that there is a very small chance for Congress to investigate Southern violation of the law, and that all that any other person says will not make it any better for the Afro-American, for Congress Relf has passed that question over so many years, and that he would bold to answer and I dare any man on this floor or any editor in the Union to give evidence to the contrary, that not a single state in the Union has ever been by statute or by racial intimidation." His attention should be called to the attempt of the state to rid itself of the majority of its Colored voters in the election act; if he reads Hone, Hoke Smith's last message to the legislature, June 28, 1909, he will find that his honor says: "The new franchise of the state will be thirds vote, was ratified by the people (white) at the ballot box, and now is a part of the constitution of the state government law." It prescribes qualifications for the exercise of the right to vote which will protect even the smallest community of the state from the disfranchisement themselves are entirely unfit to vote upon the rights of others. No legislation since the days of reconstruction will be more beneficial in its far-reaching effect than the jot boy but also in the solution of the race problem." Not only did the state discriminate against us at the ballot box but also discriminated against the Colored children in the same message: "I do not mean any unkindness toward the Negro by this act, but I do not mean that instructions from books except of a simple character is of benefit to a considerable portion of them." The difference between the two races is recognized by the county school commissioners." Some years ago the state executive committee met in the Kibbutz village (lunatic asylum) of white, of course) and fixed Aug. 23 as the date for the state primary and Sept. 1 as the date for the state convention, where "white electors who have duly registered according to law, irrespective of past political affiliations, and who intend in good faith to vote in the primary and support the nominations thereof are hereby declared qualified and are NEWS OF THE MUSIC WORLD the twilight musicale Sunday afternoon at the National University of Music, l of which Miss Pauline J. Loe is president, was attended by a large and appreciative audience, and was addressed by the members of the faculty and Mr. Buchanan, the chairman of the program committee, and Miss Hicks is deserving of great credit for the success of these programs. The program opened with Mrs. Ione Loe, and Miss Hicks, by Debussy. This composer's numbers are always extremely difficult to arrange, and artistry in order to mean a great deal to an audience. Mrs. Trice is truly an amazing and beautiful tones and excellent technique. As accompaniment later in the program, Mrs. Trice is being able to absolutely feel and express the interpretation of the artist. Mr. Amourreuire, tenor, continues to distinguished himself as a soloist and Harrison Emanuel, violinist, whose name stands for all that he has achieved in the musicale a rare treat in his wonderful renditions of "Eline Tanz," and particularly the Stering Todd, who is a gifted musician and is a leader played a saxophone solo, accompanied by Mme. Talbert. His number was a number of singers present was especially attractive. He played the violin, which was a demand upon skill in handling the saxophone. His gifted and accomplishments have been recorded in this column recently, gave Titulaire "from 'Mignon'. So great was the demand of the audience that Mme. Talbert, who displayed her ability as a tyrlic singer, was enlisted. In two numbers and gave evidence of his superior training received by his wife, who also studied piano in Germany. He read new laurels to her reputation as a particularly gifted artiste, and the presentation. The audience was held with the charm of her graceful features and the force of her dramatic melism. As an encore she read a number impersonating the artist of the music.

ROLAND HAYES Roland Hayes' return engagement at Orchestra Hall engagements in Chicago. Although it was just four weeks since he met the hall, which almost completely filled the hall greeted him and enthusiasmately Mr. Hayes' program was composed of numbers which only an artist could understand, and when we consider that this program was entirely new and made famous, we consider that it marvelous and gives evidence of the years of close application that have made him master artist. The absolute hunch that had been entertained was evident here as before, for the audience seemed not so beautifully produced. The wonderful diction, which made every word so uttered even if in a foreign language, that they were not able to understand, was given with the ease and accuracy of a native of these countries, and Mr. Hayes speaks French and German. Encores were many and still more were desired. They were taken from the request list. "It was a Lover and His Lass" followed the first group. "Un Reve" from "Manon" was so thuslistically applauded that the second encore followed. "By and was" "Die Forenoelle." Burleigh's "By and By" followed the third and "Every Time I Feel the Spirit" after the last group. Although many had gone a persistent group in the boxes which had a main floor succeeded in hearing a second encore, which was requested by a lady who rushed up and asked personally for a repetition of the second number upon the program. Mr. Hayes very graciously sang it. "Eviva Rosa." Edward Moore of the Tribune has this to say of the number: "One number in the group is seldom heard, and he becomes intended to other recreational elders. We agree with the group well enough." We agree with this expression for it will be found that many of these songs that sounded like gems when sung by Mr. Hayes would be unrecognizable undertaken by one of the United Training. The boxes were occupied by many whose names stand at the top of the North side social register. The evening attire and magnificent furs and evening By BLOOMFIELD BERGEN By MAUDE ROBERTS GEORGE Invited to participate in said primary elections. That is, all white people who will agree to vote against the Negro in the general election could vote in the white primary, "irrespective of past political affiliations." Who cannot see that the state committee was begging white people to help them in the general plan of intimidation and disfranchisement. On Feb. 24, 1923, the white citizens of Pooler, Ga., went with faces masked and informed two Colored men who had opened a repair shop near the depot, respectable citizens of Savannah, of the fact that no Negroes were allowed to reside in the corporate limits. The whites with faces masked gave these two respectable citizens until the 7:05 train for Savannah. They do not mind the Negroes living in Seabrook and Skinner because they are outside the city limits and can go back and forth to work in the Pooler kitchens, but when the time comes for voting he will be out of it. It is very interesting to note that we have some friends even in the South among the creators of the Negro press, to education of Negro preachers", and demanding that "the Negro shall have equal protection of the law - with every right - of the Negro." J. B. Gambrell of Fort Worth is reported to have said to the Southern Baptist convention that met in Atlanta May 15, 1933 at 10:30 a.m. some politicians in the South who have ridden into office on the backs of the Negro and made themselves popular by inclining to vote. The Negro Race that has served our flag and worn our uniform I have the greatest love and respect and I have that, too, for the individuals of that face wherever we have proven them- Of course he did not say Georgia, but he was in the right house and let us give three cheers, for he was certainly in the right state. Georgia, who cannot now move to Georgia, leaders remarks against us when they were seeking political office? For mery's sake, he would be better good shot at them. We would be a little more merciful than the good doctor wants the government to do, and then a passport would be too severe. It is an established fact that some crackers are tough to touch back among the stately pines of Georgia than sitting up among such intellectuals as the national Congress represents. That is, it would be better for them to be in Georgia than to be in Florida or for they have hindrance to all legislation affecting our people. wraps of the bookkeepers and the auditor think of the auditor at this session. Mr. Hayes left at midnight for Detroit, where he sings Thursday night a return recital. Mr. Lawrence, the accompanist, shared the applause of the audience and his accompaniments were as perfect as before. AT THE OPERA The past week for the opera-goer has been full of interest and wonderful artists. Claire Dux and Pareto, sopranos, who have given debut appearances, and Charles Hart and Charles Hackett, guest artists. The excellent singing of Muzlo, the South American soprano, in "La Forza del Destino" surpassed her former appearance and added new laurels for her. Mary Garden appeared in four operas during the week and scored decidedly in her characterization of a youth who is turned from a life that is reckless to one of religious sincerity from "Le Jongluer De Notre Dame." One can realize that wonderful ability of this artist when she is such a successful interpreter of Cleonatra. The farewell performance of Gallion Doubt, the most attractive opera listed, Chicago opera-goers had hoped that the show would return with our opera company, but Friday proved to be her farewell inning. The "Jailer" is naturally very long and the midnight hour had arrived so many curtain calls that it was impossible to keep count.

According to an article by Matchmaker Joe Sarno of the Avenue A. C. Joe Woodman, Russell's manager, says his charge is a husty jounger. The former coach he claims Russell has never been knocked out and says he has defeated such fighters as Buddy Jackson and Jack Ward.

All the rest of the Colored heavies Wills has met and refused to take the match while Wills refuses to box Bill Tate again because of a personal grudge.

However, since that time I have been engaged as coach of football at Virginia Theological seminary and co-legger of the team. I have come to the progress of teams in our college. The past season has produced many stars whose prowess will often be rehearsed. My team has been a well-enthusiastic football fans. However some of the stars of past seasons have failed to hold their own when placed in the firmament; he also has the glarities who have hitherto been unknown. Having seen a large number of these men in action and secured information from competent critics concerning others, I place them as above. The number of the new-born, though small, would on end runs, though some In Crudup and Brown we have the pick of the season for the wing post-position. The former is the standing bank of the year, a sure tackler, a streak on offense and a place kicker of remarkable ability. Though Brown is not the type of outfielder superior to other wingmen. Williams of 1920 fame and Corruthers stand in line as worthy substitutes. Both 200-pounders, are able to stand the bombardment that any human backs can launch at them. These men are reliable in every sense of the word, and their opponents behind the line and powerful at opening holes. Costen, the veteran, and Morgan need very little advice for them too are a formidable pair. Mori is rightly considered the best BATTLING SIKI WINS FROM YOUNG NORFOLK Memphis, Tenn., Jan. 18.—Battling Siki, the Senegalese, proved to fight fans for the second time within two weeks that he still retains some of that punch that lowered the "idiol of France" when he clearly outpointed Kid Norfolk, the New Orleans batter. In their eight-round bout Monday night, Siki's style of fighting and his ring sportsmanship made for himself many friends of the Dixie fight fans. Although Norfolk outweighed the Senegalese by 20 pounds, he seemed to have been baffled at Siki's crouching attitude and the way he moved across the mat. In the third Siki knocked the Southern boy to the floor but refused to strike him when he arose. Instead, he walked to his corner and waited for the gong. The only time Siki was on the mat was in the sixth when Battling Norfolk, with a right cross swing to the jaw, floored the Senegalese. Siki was up before a single count and seemed none the worse for the blow. SANTA CLARA, 4: HAVANA, 2 HAVANA R. I. F. C. Gonzalez 2b M. I. F. C. Gonzalez 2b Ildaq ss. O. 0 2 2 Ildaq ss.

Brought him out by Miller tought the other guard, being quik to fathom plays, a hard tackler and can break through any team's second honors to Gill and Butler. The outstanding centers are few, none coming up to the standard of past seasons. A ninety percent of them have such a high mark that centers find sailing mighty hard when they attempt to sail a pair of pysical geniuses. However Williams of Morehouse gets the call over Morgan, both having a slight edge over the experienced and weight. The elusive Byrd of Lincoln was the pride of Orange and Blue, a terror on end runs, though small, would be a great challenge on any team. Because of his generalship and individual prowess he gets to call the signals. In Wheedbees of Morgan, Byrd had plenty of opposition. Doneghy's praises have been sung far and wide. He was the sensation among sailors aboard all backs of today. He will place his name beside the backfield heroes of all time. To Drewery (deceased) he coded the instructions to his love for his school, his team and football, he gave his life. He was one of the fastest men that ever donned a uniform and he would be tender in our heartfelt sympathies. Johnson of Fisk and Parker of St Paul divide the honors in their ability to plow the line. Johnson being a triple threat man receives the call. MOREHOUSE 5 DEFEATS BY L. SLATER BAYNES Atlanta, GA. Jan. 12. -The Morehouse over the Morris-Brown basketball.

BISHOP COLLEGE GAME SET FOR THANKSGIVING Pitching Staff of Foster to Be Drawn From 10 Men Marshall, Tex., Jan. 18.—Wiley's 1924 athletic program will be one of the heaviest that any Southern Athletic conference team will attempt. Fourteen conference baseball games have been arranged for this spring, and many exhibition contests will undoubtedly be played. The most important of these exhibitions will be the appearance of Rube Foster's American Giants in Marshall for the first time in history. Other professional nines will be engaged including the Dallas Black Giants and the Houston Buffs. The football schedule is the heaviest that any Wiley eleven ever undertook. Nine games have been scheduled and the championship purple and white eleven will be tested thoroughly. It is able to win another championship. Langston university champions of Oklahoma, Southern university, champions of Louisiana, Louisiana, the newcomers on the Wiley grid card. It can easily be seen that the authorities at Wiley are picking real opponents and dodging setups. Unusual effort was made to get one of the leading eastern elevens on the 1924 Wiley grid card. Morehouse, Flske, Atlanta and Talndega were asked for games, but to no avail. It When the American Giants hit the trafic for the Sunny South in March many of the fans will wonder who the team as pitcher's this season. It is true the best of the season has to come from is one of the best, but it is a known fit one. Five twirlers are needed on the Chicago club. The team will make the trip are. Rile, Owens, Padrone, to be a few. Williams, Dicta Johnson, Strong, Harney, Whitworth and Williams. Roth 176 club in the major leagues would be glad to have such an array of talent that means that he will probably rank with the leading pitchers of the league.

A. to compete in that organization's outdoor, games in the Yankee Stadium, has been training diligently for the first time, regaining the form which made him the most feared of all the foreign sprinters in the last Olympic games in which he took place in the United States in the 100 meters and third to Woodring and Paddock in the 200 meters will probably make his first start indoors in the sprint series at the Wilco A. A. games next month. The conditions of this sprint series are not ideal, select 150-yard distance and qualifying in the heat at that distance he is eligible to race. In his best form Edwards is almost certain to break the 150-yard distance and be by McBallister two years ago. If Edwards is able to regain his old form it is quite likely that the British team will back home to race under the Union Jack in the Paris Olympics. His showing in his races during the indoor season will well as the sprinters of the United States a good line on his form. SANTA CLARA, 6; HAVANA, 3 Havana, Cuba.

The great general, and the great surgeon are still necessary in the social and physical lilies which affect mankind. But war is looked upon as a glorious thing, while the surgeon is looked upon as a miserable evil. Who remembers the name of a single one of the surgeons who amputated the shattered limbs of the sick dog? Lee and Meade are remembered, but the surgeons are forgotten. The great soldier who uses his talents to defend himself is entitled to honor, but the thing has been overdone. For this is that the cause of war is not given the cold scientific scrutiny which the cause of disease is given. It has been the cause of war since true causes in their sordid origins and siege on some incidental contemporaneous cell and point it out as The degrading brutality of Necro slavery in the South was not the cause of the crisis, but cleverly implied to be in the school histories in the North. The Southern states whose industries were to be exported to buy its manufactured articles in the buy trade world market, but the Northern manufacturer, was to be exported to Congress wished to compel the South to buy their protected products. The Southern states ordered that they could set aside the tariff laws of the North. The United Two Might Have Been Dead but HerAim Was Bad Philadelphia. Jan. 18.

States government went to war with them for the purpose of freeing the colonies, and John Scolm said to "preserve the Union." **JOHN MIDDONOUGH, Edgewood, Iowa.** Editor's Note: We hee to differ with the letter. To be sure all wars have been some impounding economic or religious surest for a long time before a war is realized into some great spiritual or moral issue before people will get excited for it or compel others to do so. The South was committed to slavery and its enslavement, its lives for it or compel others to do so. The South was committed to slavery and its enslavement, its lives for it or compel others to do so. A man's worth was measured in the degradation he fenced to own simply because he bought Garrison. Phillips Brooks and Harriet Beecher Stowe who supplied the spiritual impetus which made the North a crusader under Lincoln for the abolition of slavery cared nothing about the economic aspects of slavery because they did not see a way successfully to settle that phase of it until men were convinced in their hearts that slavery was actually wrong. The South, stubborn in its ignorance and pride, refused to listen to any kind of reason, economic or otherwise. The political contest for western influence and tertiary ending the Misses Comprimale made slavery the issue. Lincoln had to make emanipation the issue because slavery was the thing which the northern armies set out to destroy and the South was convinced that the destruction of slavery meant her ruth. History has held slavery up as the issue of the civil war and viewed as a spiritual, moral or economic question it nevertheless remains that slavery was the issue over which the war was fought and lost by the South.

HIRAM JOHNSON'S MISTAKE THE ANNOUNCEMENT that Senator Hiram Johnson of California would be a candidate for the Republican nomination for the presidency was favorably received by thousands of Republicans through a series of public meetings. It be a typical representative of the principles and policies for which the late Theodore Roosevelt stood. This impression was strengthened by the fact that the senator Roosevelt's run for the presidency in 1912, Mr. Roosevelt's shortcomings may have been—and he was not without them—yet on questions and issues deemed vital and paramount by the great mass of Republican voters he saw. HE ADMINISTRATION as president he would not tolerate the drawing of the color line, nor would he by word, act or deed sanction the evasion or nullification of the fifteenth amendment to the Constitution. So far as we are concerned our policy is to support our friends and oppose enemies in the state. That is what at least 90 per cent of our voters supported Roosevelt, the progressive, against Taft, the old guard, in 1912. It was due largely to this support that Roosevelt defeated Taft in the popular primaries in the state of Illinois. HOPES WERE ENTERTAINED that on the vital questions involved, which contributed materially to Roosevelt's popularity, Mr. Johnson held the same views as Roosevelt, but his recent utterances in condemning the national committee in refusing to countenance the disfrianchment of the war, and in proportion to their disfrianchment by Southern Democrats would seem to indicate that the senator is identified with that wing of his party which advocates acquiescence in if not indorsement of the nullification of the fifteenth amendment by any state which may see it to take that action. The senator would not take that part, which will not only prevent his nomination but would largely contribute to his defeat. It nominated. OBREGON THE REAL TRAGEDY OF MEXICO is that the people never seem to know when they are well off. After several decades of internal strife and a series of administrations that more often than not were worse than no government in the country, he was given the avowed purpose of saving the people. He came not only with a clean record, but with the luster of an undimmed reputation as a great military leader whose success in the field has seldom been equalled by our greatest generals. And such a confidence in his hand is hard to be as the dawning of a day of new hope for Mexico. THAT CONFIDENCE seems fully justified. It was not long after his establishment in Mexico that order began to evolve out of the chaos that Oregon found when he first took into his own hands the reigns of governor and governor to revive; the blood-stained battlefields became white with grain rife for the harvest; and perhaps best of all proofs of the nation's regeneration, diplomacy hacked by a profound respect for the country's patriotic executive had its triumph in securing a tardy recognition of Mexico from the United States and the reception of its minister, at Washington. JUST AS ALL SEEMED WELL a black cloud appeared. The kin of a former and disreputable president gathered around him an army of far too easily persuaded Mexicans, who for reasons that are hard to comprehend withdraw their allegiance from a great chief and transform it from work to service, and sent sentiment favoring intervention by this country into Mexican affairs. Recently Obregon was able to secure a large quantity of firearms and munitions from our government, an incident which shows which way the wind is blowing. IT IS EVIDENT that the welfare of Mexico depends on a continuance of the Obregon government. We hope Washington will do all in its power to support Obregon in the gallant fight he is now making, not for himself we may be sure, but to save his beloved country. THE KLAN BACKS WATER Mt. E. Y. CLARK of Atlanta, Ga., who largely responsible for the organization and action of that criminal organization known as the Klux Klan, now comes forward in a letter ad to President Coolidge with the statement that the organization has degenerated into one of lawless and violent groups and violate the sacred rights of indian He is anxious to co-operate with the federal cities in an effort to wipe out the entire organ or the lawless element there. He states: "I HAVE RECEIVED authoritative information that the Klax is rapidly developing nationally, in the police, in the justice, and, in sections where it is strongest, in and aptly superseeing the authority of cou Mt. E. Y. CLARK of Atlanta, Ga., who was largely responsible for the organization and formation of that criminal organization known as the Ku Klux Klan, told President Coolidge with the statement that his organization has degenerated into one of lawlessness and one which inculcates a spirit which would disregard and violate the sacred rights of individuals. He is an ambassador to open-ended authoritarian efforts to be out the entire organization, or the lawless element there. He states: "I HAVE RECEIVED authoritative information that the Klan is rapidly developing nationally as a chess club, and, in sections where it is strongest, brazenly and openly superseding the authority of courts and through character assassination and intimidation and actual physical violence is depriving American citizens of a sense of security and the process of law or trial before a jury of their peers. OF COURSE Mr. Clark would have the public believe that those who were responsible for the organization of the Klan were actuated by high ideals and patriotic purposes and motives. But the intellectual purpose of the primary purpose was the accumulation of wealth without earning it, and that the intention was to prey upon the ignorance, cidity and prejudice of certain classes of persons solely with the view of having them part with their money, yet it was perfectly apparent that intelligence and intelligence organization could not be otherwise than mischievous in its operations, if not disastrous in its results, because it was founded upon and was the incubator of racial antipathy, religious intolerance and sectional bitterness. It is high time for the organizers of the Klan to back water. A CHICAGO MAN had his watch stolen on a State St. car. The police, we learn, have the case in hand. Who has the works? IF A MAN dodges flirters he is a pedestrian; if he dodges taxes he is a financier; if he dodges responsibilities he is a statesman and a diadrom. THE K. K. is already learning that most organizations thrive best in sunlight. THE SOLID SOUTH MANY EXPERIMENTS have been tried by different Republican administrations to break the "Solid South." All have failed because they were predicated upon an erroneous assumption. That assumption was that Southern Democracy is the presence of the Colored man in the Republican party prevented white men from joining it. Every intelligent person who is familiar with the facts and not blinded by prejudice known this is not true. The problem is a political myth and held as a scarcely frighten the limelid and to deceive and mislead the ignorant among the whites. The sole purpose is to create and maintain a popular sentiment throughout the country which will sanction and tolerate election methods and practices in the interest of the local Southern oil companies that would otherwise be denounced and condemned. THE WAY to build up an effective organization in that section in opposition to the present political machines is to have the Republican party come back to its original moorings, take a bold and aggressive stance, and make sure that its actions to the federal Constitution and no longer tolerate their violation, evasion or nullification. In this way the minority of the white voters of that section who represent the best blood and manhood thereof would come to the front in an active way because they could safely depend upon our voters to support THE PRESENT LOCAL MACHINES are under the domination and control of the worst and most undesirable element of the white race, an element that has been the focus of the aristocrats, although those aristocrats were numerically in the minority. This latter class and our voters would be natural political allies, but with the suppression of our vote they have no incentive to vote. We are not going to reinforce RE-ENFRANCHISHE our voters through the enforcement of the war amendments to the Constitution. It will then be possible for an effective organization composed of our voters in co-operation with the Republican leaders to throw the present regime in those states. The Republican leaders ought to know by this time that nothing politically is to be gained by trying to win the friendship and support of Southern Democrats. We are not going to reinforce the present voters. This cowardly policy should be abandoned. SILENT HEROES HER GREATESTTEST are seldom they do labor and suffer and achieve unknown. But the fruits of their labor are left behind, a legacy of blessing it. It is not hard to be heroic on the busan admiring world gracing upon us, but an admiring mother wears herself away with aching body and heart, her sole reward too of ousiness of her weary task well done, and men and women teachers of all natives have sacrificed their fortunes, their soils, their economic chances, their all, to the lowly and the oppressed; who have the light of intelligence at a tremendous rate and are armed with such cane states. The great outside world of them, never gives them a thought. THE SILENT, PATIENT HERO, too, is far great medical laboratories. Few did more greatly bless the human race than the fall disease is revealed, the cause is the means of cure suggested, so that consequence were known as highly fatal and a threatened life prolonged. The LIVING LIFE is known as the altar of the X-ray. How many who never known, but now and again case of martyrdom is brought to light by sympathetic press in a few carless life days ago the paper had to be ample sequence of his earnest work in further power of the X-ray and enlarging the sacrosanct usefulness. His sacrifice is no noble. Some day these silent heroes may be remembered in the mean little; it is the final reward that OUR GREATEST heroes are seismic heard of. Too often they do labor and suffer and achieve, then die unknown. But the fruits of their labor and suffering are left behind, a legacy of blessing to mankind. They are the ones who make with an admiring world gaze upon us; but in the humble home with none to see or praise, the wife and mother wears herself away with aching brain and body and heart, her sole reward too often the gift of life. IN OUR SCHOOLS in the South, especially, can be found men and women teachers of all nationalities who have sacrificed their fortunes, their social positions, their economic chances, their all, to work among the lowly and the oppressors, to help the most vulnerable, to tremendous cap of self into the darkest corners of the cotton and sugar cane states. The great outside world never hears of them, never gives them a thought. THE SILENT, PATIENT HERO, too, is found in the world where discoveries have more greatly blessed the human race than that of the X-roy. By its mysterious magic the hidden seat of fall disease is revealed, the cause discovered and the means of cure suggested, so that complaints that once were known as highly fatal may now be MANY PRECIOUS LIVES have been sacrificed upon the altar of the X-ray. How many will probably be never monochromatic and again burn so far from sympathetic press in a few careless lines. Not many days ago the papers chronicked the case of a Paris surgeon whose arm had to be amputated by a stabbing wound. He was the power of the X-ray and enlarging the scope of its miraculous usefulness. His sacrifice is as great as it is noble. Some day these silent heroes will be sacrificed and again burn so far from man mean little; it is the final reward that counts. OUR EMBLEM OF LIBERTY ME THIRTY-SEVEN YEARS AGO the berty, which stands on Bedloe's island harbor, and which was presented to this France, was dedicated with much power. The uplifted torch which will be more than 300 feet above the the light the oppressed peoples of all and of freedom. It is fitting that the can should reflect on what it means to ion—on what liberty has meant to a every clime—since the early dawn of It is not to be thought of lightly, but as and quietly. TE LOVE OF LIBERTY as an abstract ing; the administration of the laws of ercy, the living of a life of liberty is in France there is a Statue of Life that mocked the pathetic figure of as she ascended the guillotine crying by, Liberty, how many crimes are co rby name!" In our New York harbor state of Liberty, torch in hand, that could stretching the imagination, symbolize the it the stake, the lynchings, so frequent democratic land. When it comes to mo fference very great between the Statue of France and the Statue of Liberty on SOME THIRTY-SEVEN YEARS AGO the Statue of Liberty, which stands on Bedloe's island in New York harbor, and which was presented to this country by France, was dedicated with much pomp and splendor. The uplifted torch which will hold 12 people is meant to light the oppressed peoples of all races to the land of freedom. It is fitting that the warped American should reflect on what it means to us as a nation—on what liberty has meant to all races and in every clime—since the early dawn of civilization. It is not to be thought of lightly, but seriously. The LOVE OF LIBERTY as an abstract idea is one thing: the administration of the laws of justice and mercy, the living of a life of liberty is quite another. In France there is a Statue of Liberty, a statue that mocked the pathetic figure of Madame Roland as she ascended the guillotine crying "Oh, mercy!" and the burning in them name!" In our New York harbor stands our Statue of Liberty, torch in hand, that could, without stretching the imagination, symbolize the burnings at the stake, the lynchings, so frequent in this free, democratic land. When it comes to mockery is the difference very great between the Statue of Liberty, France and the Statue of Liberty on Bedloe's island? SIDE-STEPPING IS QUITE EVIDENT that the feeling around that Jack Dempsey cannot much meet meeting Harry Wills to defend his heavy weight boxer of the world. The showings of Dempsey have had the effect the estimation in which the public hears him many pounds lighter than the champion him for 15 rounds and then leave the red suggests that either Gibbons has made improvement or that the champion is far more believed him to be, and that he has raw restraint and an acknowledgeduffer as to the role, was able to knock the champion through into the laps of astonished press reporter it looked as if a new champion had fairly mean or foul Dempsey obtained his record, and that he was not shown any reductance to print that it wasained by foul means. Unless instances it is hardly to be wondered should be a change of heart toward record is wholly clean and who had the champion. Silvester cleaned the issue. IT IS QUITE EVIDENT that the feeling is gaining ground that Jack Dempsey cannot much longer avoid meeting Harry Wills to defend his title as champion heavyweight boxer of the 1920s. Jack Dempsey had the effect of lowering the estimation in which the public held him. The fact that Tom Gibbons, a clean, honest fighter, but many pounds lighter than the champion, could not be beaten, the scatched suggests that either Gibbons has made marvelous improvement or that the champion is not the wonder many believed him to be. AND AGAIN, when a champion raw recruit of the 1920s had the scatcheduffer as to boxing science, was able to knock the champion through the ropes into the laps of astonished press representatives it looked as if a new champion had arrived. But by fair means or foul Dempsey obtained the veritable champion, and the press has not shown any reluctance to print many hints that it was rained by foul means. Under the circumstances it is hardly to be wondered at that there should be a change of heart toward Wills. But the champion has never, like the champion, distested the issue. REDUCING TAXES THE PLAN suggested by Secretary Meling the national taxes is meritorious and the public approbation and be enacted if congress. It has been clearly demonstrated small taxpayer would be the principal bearer. The only objection to the plan is that any man would also be a beneficiary, believe that wealth should be pro-property, believe that property should be class government, yet it is unfair and unjust to son simply because he or she happenly. TAX one person out of proportion to income simply because that person hap more than his height, because he class him and applicable to all alike, based upon equitable assessment upon the property of each individual or group of indi in substance is the Mellon plan which nation-wide attention. THE PLAN suggested by Secretary Melton for reducing the national taxes is meritorious and should receive public apprehension and be enacted into law by Congress. It has been clearly demonstrated that the small taxpayer would be the principal beneficiary of the tax plan, and it is if that the wealthy man would also be a beneficiary. While we believe that wealth should bear its proportionate share of the legitimate expenses for the support of the government, yet it is unfair and unjust to punish a person simply because he or she happens to be wealthy. A PLAN one person out of proportion to his or her income simply because that person happens to own more than his neighbor would be class legislation and unjust if not illegal. Taxation should be uniform and applicable to all alike, based upon a fair and equitable assessment upon the property or income of each individual or group of individuals. This PLAN plan which is attracting nation-wide attention. THEY SAY homes are cleaner now than they used to be. Well, we hate to think that all these vacuum cleaners had been working in vain. ANOTHER THING: you have to watch your trains of thought unless you want a nervous wreck. Race Hatred's Part in American Geography U. S. A. In 1783 the United States of America was recognized as a nation, all states of which were subject to federal laws. Allegiance to the flag and respect for the Constitution were demanded. PACE HATRED But in 1819 the hand of race hatred drew a line (the Mason-Dixon line) which divided those states wherein every citizen is given the protection and privileges set forth in the Constitution from those wherein the color of one's skin subjects him or her to lynching, disfranchisement, peonage, jim-crowlism and mob law. THE SOUTH AND THE PRESIDENCY [From Chicago Evening Post] One thing present in the campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination ought to be grateful to the American people. Seeing there is no Northern influence in the nomination of Oscar W. Underwood or of William G. McAdoo on the ground of their Southern birth, upbringing and sentiment. Neither Mr. McAdoo nor Mr. Underwood may be the choice of the Democratic convention, but we are sure that the prize will be because he was brun south of the Mason and Dixon line. Things are not as they once were. in the highest sense the Union seems to have been perfected in 1865 when it was known pretty definitely that William H. Taft was to be the Republican nominee for the presidency, a strong sentiment developed in his party for a Southern man as a ticket com- mender in the first place. The only objection which was heard in the ranks of Republicanism at that time to the naming of a Southern was that there was no upstanding man Republican. Republicanism could not be challenged on some ground. This may or may not have been true, but it is true that one or two of the prominent Southerners who were named, as likely candidates for the vice presidency were suspected of mugwumpism, or of something equally evil in the eyes of the lovers. Of them all, the enterant any objection on the ground of Southern birth or Southern unbringing. FOR CHICAGO'S WELFARE Dear Editor: I noticed an article in the Herald-Examiner saying that the three Colored men who were accused of the holding of the firearms only shooting a South Chicago policeman narrowly escaped a lynching. Being a Chicagoan, naturally Chicago's welfare is a matter of importance to me. The spirit of fair play and justice is an institution of Chicago as old as the Constitution, and the assembled itself in open defiance of constituted authority. must and will be taught a lesson should it ever attempt to execute their dastardly plan. And the Constitution of the 1819 riot. And each law abiding citizen owes it to himself and the commonwealth to leave no stone unturned to avert it. But if mob law decides to invade the sacred pretexts of the Constitution, it will be awful retribution is sure to follow. There is no difference between a Georgia lynching bee and an Illinois lynching party. Both are lawless and must be treated as such. When legislators are slow in passing laws that will insure the citizens protection from fear, they are not properlyness, then well-directed shots from fearless guns speak a language that those heathens are bound to understand and respect. If those men are guilty, justice must not be thwarted; if innocent, their names will be cleared, for Chicago's sense of duty and justice is second to none. Respectfully yours, KING BUSCOE. Servierville LIGHTS AND SHADOWS [To the memory of those soldiers who fell fighting for democracy.] Fearless and undaunted by old op- pression's hee, Milton hee rushed into the thickest fray; On to death or victory with undaunted zeal, Gashed and bleeding; smiled as the' they play; Smoking the wave of hatred with an iron hand, Holding the cup of freedom to a world in strain. Yet slipped they not the portion aligned for every man— Glad martyrs; hold and dauntless, Smiling through their pain! When red-hot hate was roaring and the clank of steel— Life was like a king from their limbs so bare, Called out Death, the reaper, to labor in the field. They wore a smile forgiving for all and fair. And for all they've given they ask a lone reward: A level measured freedom for every race of God! J. W. JACKSON. ASSORTMENT OF WISHES [From New York Times] A happy prescient New Year, Dr. JOHN P.

HOPE THE GLEAM of HOPE: WEARIED, I fell Asleep in a chair Near the window. For MORE than an HOUR, MY HEART REST; Not a THING seemed to EXIST. Then—I AWOKE. There CHATTERING Pleasantly Sat MY WIFE and two DAUGHTER. The VOICE of their SWEET VOICES— THE MUSICAL NOTES Of the WORDS they SPOKE To EACH other SOUND So HARMONIOUSLY to ME— That WHAT I weared OF PASSED from my MIND. I peeled through the window. THE BRIGHT MID-NOVEMBER SUN shine. With A WARMTH that seemed to INVITE me OUT. —J. STEPHEN AGENOR. RATHER ROUGH Washington, Dec. 30. — Magnus Johnson and Secretary of Agriculture Wallace attempted today to settle a dispute over the result was so inconclusive that Senator Johnson challenged the secretary to a further contest with a buckskaw. That electric fish that shouts and carries 350 lights is nothing new. You can get electric fish any day if you know where to fish for them. You can get electric fish is, obviously, at the Battery. The sun-god with his myriad train Tinged all the earth with golden hue And promised to return again. Today the earth is dark and drear And winds sweep rudely over the mountain. The sky has lost its warmth and cheer. But soon the sun will shine again. Although my dreams have come to naught, And I have fondly hoped in vain. I will not languish at the thought Because the sun will shine again. Today may bring its grief and care. Its doubts, its conflicts and its pain; But why should I at these despair? The sun will surely shine again. In the guide book for prohibition in the United States, he entered: All goods lead to Irum. AT MY DESK At my desk you see me sitting In my cozy swinging chair. While the busy hours are fitting And work permeates the air. But you do not see the longing That is hidden in my heart To be with the masses thronging In the city's crowded mar. And you do not know the aching Just to feel you at my side. All the present things forsaking And to wander free and wide. Where the sands and waters glisten. While the winds chant low retrain. As I sit and eager listen To your tender voice again. But, alas! you only see me Sitting in my business chair. And your blinded eyes cannot see That my soul is there. -AILEEN WARD. The last time there was a big war In Mexico the revolutionists got the American army into Mexico without even asking to borrow it. JANUARY SECOND With tender tela and care, And vowed I wouldn't trade it For countless jewels rare. Alas, for good intentions! At certain time I know Is paved with such conventions, As all the records show. And so my new born glory Became a sham, a bluff; It was the old, old story— A buy in booter stuff. —O. C. A. CHILD. TO ALONE Alas, how easy the world goes wrong; A kiss too much, or a sigh too long; There follows a mist and a blinding pain. And life is never the same again. FAY. SATURDAY, JANUARY 19, 1924 DR. A. WILBERFORCE WILLIAMS No Cases Are Diagnosed and No Prescriptions Given in These Weekly Articles TALKS ON PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES, HYGIENICS AND SANITATION Broadcasted by the School of Public Health, Howard University, Washington, D. C. Algernon B. Jackson, M. D., Director ARE YOU AS GOOD AS YOUR CAR? Confidently, what I really meant to write as the heading of this article is: Are you as good to yourself as to your plugs at regular intervals, have the carbon burned out every so often, and do the many things necessary to keep it in good running order. Why not give yourself the same care? Do you think more of your car than of yourself? Are you as good as your car? [Please note return to text.] How I am going to do it. I am going to years of age if you should go see your doctor once a year for a complete examination. If you are, perchance, over 10 you should seek the advice of your doctor or love you, to have a physical examination. It doesn't matter how you think you feel, it is best for you, your family and those who are dependent upon you or love you, to have a physical examination. Perhaps you are not "hitting" on all cylinders, your spark plugs may be fouled, your carburator needs adjustment to keep you from burning too much gas and getting too hot. It will put the car to get rid of that carbon in your cylinders. That "knocking" tells you there's something wrong. Better get the bots tightened up a bit before you have to put the car in your car more to put the old car in the shop for a long stay than does a periodical looking over by an expert. If you are wise you will take the other words your car not wise, and other words and indifferent, you will take the Yes, your car is a wonderful piece of machinery or a wonderful bit of junk—all depending upon the care you give. But your car is a wonderful piece of machinery any car ever built, and will fight like blazes to keep from going to the scrap heap, yet you must give it a chance, for when it goes it has a habit of taking what you want to be junked and put upon the scrap heap hold up your hands! Then remember—if under 40 go to your doctor once a year, and if over 40 go to your doctor twice a year, you will be the truth about the "old loot." THE ONLOOKER By A. L. JACKSON that have come out so far. But they are using a fine quality of paper and when the press work catches up with the high standard of the editors' ideas this publication will be some distance from read and display anywhere. It would not be fair to omit mentioning the organ of the National Urban league. Opportunity, over whose destinies Charles S. Johnson presides. Of course some people have a special interest and rather limited appeal to the reading public. Possibly this is true, since like the Survey it is primarily devoted to social welfare, excepting in this instance that the interest of a periodical is ought to be of interest to all of us if the discussions are not too academic. We think $\textcircled{1}$ very large part of the reading public will be interested in Miss Allison's article on the artist, A. B. H. Aurélie, and Alain B. B. Aurélie. We refer to the Black Watch on the Rhine. These magazines give promise of adding something to the literary field during the coming year and we hope that the desire of the editors for larger support from the authors is evident. They need and deserve your support and encouragement. THE New York World means two things to me. They are "This Things to me. They are "The Conning Tower." by F. P. A. and Heywood Brown's column, "It Seems to Me." The fact that Mr. Brown is a Harvard man may have something to do with it, but we prefer to think that it is the very genial and whimsical good nature which pervades the things he writes. We want to quote just a few lines from his account of the recital Roland Hayes gave at the Town hall, New York. We think they speak for themselves: "Roland Hayes sang of Jesus and it seemed to me that this was what religion ought to be. It was a mood instead of a creed, an emotion rather than a doctrine. There was nothing to define and nothing to argue about. Each person took what he liked and felt whatever he had to feel and so there was no heresy. And as for miracles, music itself is a miracle." For that matter I saw a miracle in Town hall. Half of the people who heard Hayes were black and half were white and while the mood of the song held they were all the same. They shared together the close silence. One emotion wrapped them. And at the end it was a single "It was inevitable that the newspaper reports the next day should speak of Roland Hayes as a 'Negro' man, and that he is not quite truthful, for he is essentially a 'singer'." "I had never heard Hayes until Thursday and almost all my preconception was one of great natural power and vitality, with a few rough edges here and there and a distinctly rugged, earthy quality. As a matter of fact, it is rather a Hayes man and is thoroughly sophisticated. I am not using 'sophisticated' as a term of reproach. There is no sense in using it that way. I mean that to me the acquired skill of Hayes is greater and more noteworthy than his natural equipment." If our friend Henk Johnson perseveres he might frighten somebody. Inkkeeping in Cleveland should be pretty good next June. Sentiment is the quality that makes a woman prize the article she selects in exchange for the gift you sent her. Confidently, what I really meant to write as the heading of this article is: Are you as good to your car? But that title took too much space, so I am going to put my system in the first paragraph. You can choose either title you want or title better, but I am going to write what I please. I have known other people a text, close the book, whoop for Dr. Williams car? But that a title took too much space, so I am getting it out of my system in the library a graph. You can choose either title you wish or like better, but I am going to let it be I. I please. I have known other preachers to take a text, close the book, whook for words and never say a word about the text. Here's where the whooing begins. In these "diver" days most everybody has a car or a Ford and everybody who is anybody can talk and understand "car talk". Now-about the condition of their cars than about their own physical defects. You insult a man when you tell him his car rattles like a all storm upon a tinnnion "missing" "drawing in oil" the car's tires need adjustment and shows many evidences of mechanical deceptive. On the other hand, he usually thinks you are "kidding" him when you tell him he is losing flesh, has a cough, poor for and that he better see a doctor. Everyone who has a car wants it to last and perform perfectly as long as possible and he is willing to follow the rules laid down for the attainment of this end. Almost everyone wants to live the old age and is very freely free to spend through the years. But how few give their bodies the same care they give their cars. Rules of health are neglected and good advice goes unheeded. Your car, that you all over 400 or 500 miles, you clean the sparks COLLEGE FRATERNITIES the term used to describe a sorority and fraternity organizations during the holiday weeks brought together representatives of the future leaders of the Race in this country. The attend- ance and programs of them all were notable and inspiring. These young men and women training and enthusiasm upon which progress of any race or group must depend. It is a fine thing for them to get older and to exchange of ideas and to work out programs for the good of themselves A. B. A. L. Jackson and of the Race. There was a time when it seemed as though there was some danger of these organizations being in small town rivalries. While we do not think that danger is altogether removed we do feel that these young folks are more sure of what they are doing and more sympathetic in their derstanding of their fellows. A college degree does not of itself make a lady or a gentleman, or a scholar, for that matter. You may aspire to a degree nowadays in almost any field. Diplomacy is 'handy' and achievements have made a place for themselves among the leaders in their lines of endeavor and in their home communities. It is gratifying to see a disposition on the part of a diplomat who nevertheless give recognition to these men and women by making them members and paying them some consideration. There are limits to this, of course, but the organization is to retain the savior which gives it distinction. But it is a good thing to let the bars down now and then for those whose early handlers may have deprived them of status their record and ability merit. MAGAZINES IN THE NEW YEAR THERE IS no doubt but this real magazine is the most important magazines which will give young writers and artists an opportunity to develop. The make-up of existing magazines and their monotonous. The reader gets little for his money in the way of variety or novelty. The Messenger for January comes nearer to being a magazine and we have seen in the last few months. The editorialists of this magazine are always stimulating, and the high quality of paper used makes us feel that we are impressed when you handle this publication before reading it. This particular issue has a real life punch in its dramatic design, and the different types of young womanhood are excellent and ought to aid tremendously in the campaign of the editors for a larger circulation, and try to help put the other fellow in a favorable light, as does the series of articles on our business men and their enterprises now run by the magazine you are bound to build a following. Opinion. Black and White, publication. We respect the commendation and support of the reading public. We suspect that the issues are well-talked about, but not well-talked with the quality of the issues. HEYWOOD BROUN AND ROLAND HAYES
