REFUTES CHARGE IN GRAFT STORY Refuting charges brought against him by Edward Levy, who formerly served as a judge in the Sts. Maj. Adam E. Patterson, assistant corporation counsel, now under temporary suspension, strong opposition for or truth in the accusation. Levy carried his complaint to Corporation and had been ordered out of the city law office by Maj. Patterson when he demanded money alleged to have been paid to him. He had his cabaret all night. His place had been closed for not having a license. Lewy stated that he paid "Crip" Woods. 5058 State St., several hundred dollars upon the belief that he was an emissary for Maj. Patterson. Concerning the affair Maj. Patterson made the following statement to a Defender reporter: "The claims and representations of this man Levy are wholly false and untrue. I have no personal accountancy with him whatever and had no dealings with him personally. The statement that he paid money to me, or to an emissary for me, is ridiculous. I have no emissaries and never have received any money, from Mr. Woods or anyone else," for any services rendered Levy, I recall Mr. Woods requesting my leave, and the following permission for Levy to run his business after 1 o'clock in the morning and of having rendered some trivial service by writing a letter for him recommending that he be given this permission. I knew nothing nor heard anything more of the matter until this man Levy came into my office several weeks later, after his plan to sell a large number of untaught joint and for selling intoxicating liquors, and asked that I again assist him, which I refused to do. I finally ordered him out of my office and admonished him not to return again with the view of getting any aid from me." Maj. Patterson was appointed re-lieutenant of the United States treasury for the year 1887, and the President Wilson, was a major in the judge advocate general's department during the recent world war and was appointed as an assistant corporation counsel under Major Dever.

F. P. For years our girls and women bore their cross of pain and suffering from so-called "Female Troubles" in silence and without hope. They would be doing this today but it is no longer necessary.

PRESENT CUSTOMS AND HABITS OF OUR GIRLS ARE ALARMING MOTHERS WHEN THEY ARE LEAVING GIRLHOOD BEHIND THEM AND ENTERING INTO WOMANHOOD GIRLS NEED A MOTHER'S CARE AND ADVICE, NOW MORE THAN EVER BEFORE," SAYS FAMOUS AUTHORITY; IRREGULARITIES THEN HAVE LASTING EFFECT IN AFTER LIFE; HOPES RAISED FOR ANXIOUS MOTHERS BY PHENOMENAL SUCCESS OF METHOD INTRODUCED TO WOMEN OF THE RACE. There is plenty of reason for the alarm and anxiety our mothers feel when they see their daughters taking no interest in the games or pleasures of their companions, but only dragging themselves feebly around looking dull and drowsy; growing thinner and paler with each passing day. The surprising number of girls who are found in this distressing condition nowadays shows to what an extent modern conditions are causing young women to suffer from irregularity and suppression. YOUNG GIRL WAS TIMID AND AFRAID; NOW LEADS CROWD Prominent Race Woman Alarmed by Daughter's Lack of Interest in Pleasures of Companions Finds Real Trouble Due to Alliments Common to Our Young Girls; Irregularity or suppression in themselves are painful enough, but these conditions in the earlier stages are almost nothing when compared to what invariably follows if the unfortunate victim does not take prompt steps to relieve herself and insure the normal, regular functioning of her delicate female organs. Failure to correct these painful and distressing symptoms in the first stage is quickly followed by a more feeble, dull and drowsy feeling, nausea, acidity and sour stomach, loss of appetite, palpitation of the heart and a derangement of the entire nervous system, resulting in fits of melancholy and depression; the feet and ankles—sometimes become swollen, especially toward night, the sleep is restless and disturbed. If the derangement is long continued, it results in what women call "female trouble," which is usually the chronic stage of Catarrh of the Generative Organs. There is no more important period of a girl's life than when she is leaving girlhood behind her and entering into young womanhood. Her happiness and health during the remainder of her life are closely bound in this great event. At this time mothers should frankly discuss their problems with their daughters, giving them all the useful information which their own experience affords. Failure to do this invariably leads to a great deal of unnecessary pain and suffering for the child and much needless anxiety for the parent. Thousands of mothers who are now using St. Joseph's G. F. P. and finding it so amazingly successful in relieving them of so-called "female disorders," such as irregularity, dizziness and that awful feeling of weariness and depression so common among women and girls nowadays, are giving this remarkable medicine to their daughters when they find them showing those distressing symptoms which are brought on by their failure to assume the functions which mark their transformation into womanhood. The surprisingly quick and easy way St. Joseph's G. F. P. is relieving so many girls of pain, suffering and embarrassment at this critical period in their lives, and restoring them to robust, vigorous health, with glowing faces, sparkling eyes and the natural buoyancy and ambition of youth, who have been thousands of anxious mothers who had used everything else they could think of without bringing any real relief or help to their thin, frail and undernourished daughters.

MORTON IS GIVEN BOOST IN POLITICAL JOB Civil Service Commissioner of New York Receives Salary Raise From Democrats New York, Feb. 1. - Singularly attractive is the political height now captured by the Hon. Ferdinand Q. Morton, who is a civil servant in association of the city holds the distinction of being one of the highest paid political men of our group of our colleagues. This attainment was reached Jan. 1, when the federal military was increased from $3,000 to $3,000 of the recognition of merit from the entire party. F. Q. Morton Commissioner Morton's peculiar fitness and capabilities for leadership were recognized earlier in the politics elected leader of the Tammany Hall United Colorado Democracy, a relatively short time after his appointment in 1916. Morton received his first political appointment, being made assistant district attorney for New York county in 1918. Morton recognized the attorney. It was in this office that Mr. Morton distinguished himself for his excellence in the preparation of indictments and recognition of indictments against men in professional staff of the district attorney. So efficient and careful was he that before he left the office he was out at the head of the indictment bureau. On Jan. 4, 1922, Meyer John L'Flynn appointed Mr. Morton on the staff service for the city of New York. Mr. Morton emanates from Macon, Miss., where he was born Dec. 9, 1920, and graduated of 9 years, when his family removed from the place of his birth to Washington. He received his education in the public schools of Washington, and then in Howard University and Boston University Law school, finished his legal education as a law clerk in the office of the law firm, Frank & Co., which was duly admitted to the bar in 1910. Seated at his desk in the Municipal building one day last week, when our friend, the commissioner, the chat, the commissioner was apparently a very busy man, but in his usual good-natured way he was there many seconds passed had drifted into a congenial conversation. Among the things he said were the following: "During the last few years general dissatisfaction has been expressed by the colored people all over the country, because of the treatment they received in the National Republican party." Mr. Morton's intelligent and unassuming leadership caused thousands of our voters last fall to despair with Tammany hall and the Democratic party of New York state and county. Mr. Morton has done more than any other living man, with the possible exception of Charles P. Patterson, who has held hall, to elevate our voters of Haglen to the high plane which he now colors, and his endorsement has placed in office more appointees than any other office member, and these appointees have to date acquitted themselves with the dignity and efficiency commensurate with their appointment.

For once it seems our people have agreed and there is no issession among the ministers. The atmosphere is no doubt that we do not want a separate high school. More than 20 ministers were present at the meeting last Monday and all expressed the same views on the matter. The school board is attempting to screen its own activity in the matter by making it appear that the ministers have pledged themselves to make it clear to the board that such is not the case and at the same time let the voters of the city know just how responsible for this At the meeting William Pickend of the N. A. A. C. P. was the principal speaker and he attacked vigorously the policy of the administration of the plague, projecting before the people.

This according to those in authority to good work and efficiency. Some of the reasons given why congress should scale up the pay scale for postal employees are: (1) They are skilled workers; (2) They are paid of postal services and not from revenue.

Robert L. Ephiphani, head of the Indiana Department, 2113 Indiana Ave., declares that the undertakers of Chicago have entered into a conspiracy to crush him and to destroy his business. He asserts, for the warrant recently sworn out by J. W. Blackwell, at aftile, 551 State St., for his arrest and that of Isaac C. Brown, indirectly associated with him, charging the operation of a funeral burial business without a license. This grew out of a controversy that arose between Ephram and Andrew Jones, then accustomed to Ephram, John Moseley and John Moseley a casket for $150 to bury his daughter. Moseley was not able to pay that much, so he went to the Pyramid company and purchased a casket for Andrew Jones, Mr. Ephram said, refused to accept the casket or to turn over the body of the girl to her father. For this they were arrested and sent through court order. Ephram said. Meant a Loss When the public, through the advertisements of the Pyramid Casket company, finally awoke, Ephram teamed up three times more for a casket than it was worth. it acted accordingly. The undertakers were often company agents, not only as caskets from the Pyramid company" It meant a tremendous loss to them, Ephram declared, so they unanimously agreed not to any caskets from the Pyramid Casket company. To meet this situation the company secured the services Isaac C. Caskett, a city license, but not a city license. A city license was applied for from the health department, but refused. He had to be assigned to inspect from the department $1 to inspect his premises, said Ephram. The charges against the Pyramid Casket company, brought to the attention of inspector from the department $1 to inspect his premises, said Ephram. The charges against the Pyramid Casket company, brought to the attention of inspector from the department were scheduled to be alreded before a jury in the court room of the principal court. Tuesday the Pyramid company is represented by Attorney G. C. Adams and W. A. Cipriani.

Cohen as controller of customers at New Orleans, to put on the final game. Letters from all sections of the country pour in on Lincoln league officials and Chicagoans generally with the same story: "Coming to Chicago Many Victories Won Aside from its great program as arranged by the executive committee chairman, the league will make a report of its stewardship to the country.

Cohen; the restoration of rights of Southern Republicans in the Republican national convention, the greatest victory in the hungarian civil war; the version of President Harding from a lively white program; two big victories are in the plans of the Republican convention of Cohen, which is scheduled for Feb. 4, and the other is the vindication of Henry Lincoln Johnson, who is the only member of the American national committee not white.

Harmon can do little, Talmond can do little, and Daugherty, so he tells me. Therefore, in order to give him time to work, I have explained the situation to the colonel and he has agreed. Talmond does not get back. If this investigation can be stopped, Acuff can stop it—or get it done—reassured of that. Hits Politics The commission president Harding's attorney general with Ku Klux Klan activities in this manner lends additional interest to the action the Republican party will take to stop the Klan in the next presidential election.

Norfolk is home to 55,000 people of our Race, yet not a single physician among this number is employed in any capacity to aid in the local health program, this has caused a dispute. The attitude that has arisen between the doctors and the department of public welfare seriously affects the community issue. It has already resulted in the practical suspension of the clinic conducted at the Community center, a situation viewed with grave contempt, and those who realize that if the general health condition of any group of the city's population is neglected a serious monache is created, the welfare of the whole citizenry. Stop Charitable Work The unsatisfactory relation between the health department and physicians, which has been growing recently, reached the straining point, in so far as the doctors are concerned, and it is stated by them that until the department sees its way clear to accreditations of our professional men, they cannot, with honor, further extend their services in the matter of charitable work under the auspices of the health department. Holding to this view, the physicians have withdrawn their support from the Community center clinic, and the physicians are simply this: On the payroll of the health department are a number of salaried doctors whose duties are limited to circumstances make them charges of the city. No physician of the Race is employed, even though the population of the city is largely unpaid in health inspection system applied to the schools, an activity of the health department, no physician of our health inspection system complete the fact that 6,000 pupils are given physical examination annually. Want Recognition But, on the other hand, such as the free work, conducted at the clinic for our people and for which no salaries are required, only allowed to work, but are expected willingly to volunteer their services. Even to this they do not object, as they have stated positively, that they would recognize the worth of such services to the community; to the extent of placing on its payroll at least one member of the face, either as a volunteer or a community center clinic or a city physician.

MONOGRAM THEATER By Bob Hayes Boulah Benbow presents "Get Happy," a snapple, girl show, full of fun. She is a beautiful, elegant Evans and a beauty chorus of five, Ellenor Mantley, assisted by the chorus, uses "Who's Sorry Now," which goes over big. The comedy is a bit more serious, the Ordeal Irvin was extremely humorous and clean. Boulah Benbow used her own version of Louville Lou and made a hit. Floyd Young's dance was away above the average. The applause carned was deafening. The chorus, used "Real Jazz Rag" to good effect, she did some real jazz dancing to suit. Billy Cross was a typical countryside dancer. Evans made an excellent confidence man. In the cabaret scene Ellenor Mantley, as the country girl, kept the house clean and smoked. Evans made an excellent danceman. Virginia An, an Oriental dancer, gave us a touch of Egypt with fine results. She is an accomplished brown beauty, seemed full of pet, but did not have a chance to show her real merits. As a whole the show is well worth seeing—being from anything seen here for some time. Clare Campbell is with the Hunter and Cooper Co. playing the week in the league.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER Baby Peggy Goes Over Big in Her First Feature Picture asks a stranger to watch the child while she hurried away for her mother, who was in the girl aboard the ship, into the air. The gates are closed to the mother and survives too late to rescue the child. The stranger is a member of a gang of international diamond smugglers, and the mother conceals the diamonds in the stuiling of the child's doll and escapes convention, although he is arrested by the police when the boat docks in New York. The little girl is taken by a pair of the gang members, and her presence is obnoxious to the rough-neck leader of the crooks. He takes the girl and entertains her, before he learns of the hidden diamond. There is plenty of comedy to balance the drama and the entire picture, with entertainment and nationalism introduced as the anti-climax to the play, which is well built. The bagot and Raymond L. Schrock wrote the story and Bagot directed the film.

Week of April, Capital theater, Indianapolis, Folsha It is astonishing the amount of drama that can be woven around the body, that has a deep, human interest appeal; more astonishing it is to find a person whose personality can be molded perfectly into intensely dramatic situations.

So carefully she the baby star been handled throughout the picture, the audience, and the play when the interest lags. Attention is always centered on her or her doll which has such an important presence in the unfoldment of the story. The story reflects the experiences of an American woman who is dying in the care of her child, requesting that the baby be taken to her parents.

Ellis was a respected and law abiding citizen of the small town of Oxna. Racko was a little more of the same. Racko's Standard came to the Ellis home about 30 o'clock in the morning seeking whiskey. Ellis told him that he was a very happy boy, but his birth was isolated that he did, and that he had bought whiskey at the Ellis home before, but he was begged him to go to the standard return to theிரs room. Later Standard returned to the Ellis home and started using abusive language in the presence of his wife. He was a very good man, but he continued to be abusive and to use profanity. Ellis objected and when he did Standard struck at Ellis, he did not come to theிரs. He did not like it but it seems that Ellis was the quicker one on the draw and dropped his man in his crack. At the time the Northman was about to be a world war veteran, race feeling was very high. They "railroaded" Ellis and he was sentenced to the gas� to theிரs. The good will of the people of the state of California his sentence was commuted to life imprisonment.

He had the same line about his dream. I dreamed that you were unjustly treated owing to his look upon us all, not only with regards to color but as flesh and blood. Have faith in you and believe, and he will not be the way out in a just and right manner. Ellis has received many such letters from all over the state of California. As a consequence he has written. A Condemned Man's Prayer, and a poem, "The Wangling Man" are written to be and were written while he was confined in a "condemned" cell. Ellis has had his works printed and believes that by selling enough of them, it will enable him to secure the services of competent lawyers and in the course of the service.

Theatrically Speaking Brown, Bailey and Brown, being Herbert Brown and wife and Laura Bailey, are playing the Hippodrome theater the presenter was at the only time that he presented the bill, but the only thing that the writer saw on the bill was Brown, Bailey and Brown, and if applause counts for anything the audience was likewise of the same spirit. They have one of the fastest and nearest acts ever Dick and Dick are still working in the office, but they are reporting they are "clocking" them at all stands. I caught the act at the door. The riot. The same goes for Walker and brown. Working every day and booked a long way ahead. I think they will be back in March and then head for the East.

These two players are the Ackerman and Harris time, and are not particularly who they bite either. City of New Englanders cafe is in full bloom now and only two weeks old. Many after-theater and dance parties are staged nightly. It has proved the best bet for the entertainers, musicians and various visiting performers while in town. "Dink" Johnson has a six-piece orchestra that is proving one of the big hits every night. The person sonnet is as follows: "Dunk," Johnson, Robert James A. Jackson, writer of "Teddy Ben" Blues, a planist: "Buddy Petit, cornet: Geo. Washington, not the first president, trombone: Marsha; Royal, cornet, and Frank A. Raymond, drums—the "hottest" six-piece combination in California today. Wm. Mitchell, "Frisco Nick," Lawrence Ford, Vloin Warner and Louise Robinson have been retained as the enterican. Last week, forgo to mention that "Your Boy" Rufus S. Bishop is presiding behind the bar. In a kitchen R. Walls is the chef, with A. G. Taylor as the second cook, with a host of assistants. The motion picture colony of Los Angeles says there is only one place to go after hours and that is the Entertainment. The show was a long-time show of all the time, some nights and weeks now about to see inside a regular night and call it "Hollywood night." "SYI" Stewart, the millionaire sportsman, was on the opening night with a party of 13, and he told me that he was going to play the wicket, he left, but it looked to me that "SYI" didn't stop at painting it red. He invited the writer, down to spend the week-and with him and to inspect his work, and he opened. When fire destroyed the Juana some months ago, "SYI" lost $15,000 in the fire. He opened the Newport bar. Now he has the finest and largest place of his career, and he is one man in a mullion. He has been instrumental in raising over $100,000 for the Carrollton, the Colored boy held in the Mexican jail for the shying of two cases and says that he won't give up until Chester is free. He saved him from the jail, and says that he won't give up to save him from the tortures of being confined in the Mexican prison.

Packed House Sees "Liza," Big Musical Comedy Success Report taken from a daily newspaper. Youngtown, Ohio. — "Lizza," the two-nat Colored musical comedy act at the Park theater Thursday evening, established a record which may not soon be broken. Coming, as it were, from a clear sky, the act was practically unheard of until announced through the press two weeks ago, this musical play played night and undoubtedly many in that first night audience will witness another performance before the engagement closes. The variety and variety of entertainment in "Lizza" fully proves why the show enjoyed such an extensive run in New York.

"BLOW YOUR OWN HORN" Theatergoers who remember Owen Davis's famous-stage play, "Blow Your Own Horn," which enjoyed big business a few years ago, will see an amplified version of this amusing offer—a second of the most popular on Saturday of the present week. Feb. 2 The spirit of the original play has been retained by Rex Taylor, scenariat at the F. B. O. studios, where the picture was made. He has taken pains in making the adaptation to the new event that made the play such as success. "Blow Your Own Horn" is built around the efforts of two fond fathers to marry the daughter of one to the son of the other—one, to gain a well-known family name; the other, to build up a depleted family fortune. But the young people cannot be forced in matters of the heart, and the girl falls in love with a penniless doughboy, who, through the advice of her father, is "blowing his own horn" by posing as a young New York millionaire. The father thinks that things are going too far when the story of the imaginary wealth, of which he is himself the author, wins his own daughter away from the man to whom it is planned to marry her. But the boy, continuing his bally-hood methods, finally turns up the price which he has for him the approval of both families, and everything ends as it should. The cast for "Blow Your Own Names" includes Johnny Depp, names as Warner Baxter, Ralph Lewis, Derelys Ferdue and Eugene Crain, directed by James W. Horne.

Special mention must be accorded the dancing speciality. The entities of the underworld terplschorean artists, but the footwork of Ethel Ridely, R. Pierson, Lloyd Mitchell, Irvin Miller, Gertrude Saundes and Bill Mills, was little less than remarkable, combining grace, movement, heart, perfect execution and snap time. The songaters of the company are really exceptionally good. Every number was given hearty applause and the members responded with melodious nores. Con. Green, the first of the 1970s, will be the Liza Quarter, rendered several delightful numbers, but apparently did not appear frequently enough to satisfy the audience. The pace setting chorus also deserves a special word of commendation. Few musical comedy chorusers equal the double sextet in "Liza" for pep, clever dancing and fine singing. They wear some stunning costumes and are a major star of the new uplifting group of infuses. The show is in two acts and 11 scenes. There is an interesting plot carried out, sufficiently deep to sustain interest, but does not conflict with the run of humor and comedy when the sparkles with, true Darky originality. Aurora Greely, an Niz, is clever. She is a talented painter, Dandy, her lover, is a versatile artist, Alonzo Fenderson, Will A.

The footlight presentation was rescheduled because the screenings of New York and the screen version of the play is said to be to the screen what the play wants to the play.

With the town, the attorney gathers sufficient money together to erect a derrick and drilling is started. Leeds has a mortgage on the property, however, and sends word of the help of the land. If he goes on the room of the day it is due. Then the dramatic moments of the picture begin with the drillers striving to bring in the well in time. At five minutes to twelve the well is added and the money comes to the dead. The attorney finds he has lost his heart for Jane Hudson and Jane finds she, too, has fallen in love.

The man, who had changed to the floating catchel which contains the valuable papers which contain the company's Enterprise, had been left to guard. The rum runner, seeing the fare, joined the company. Johnshelvie with it.

As a consequence, J. Grant Roach, who acts and looks like a carpenter should, has been drafted for the third time for picture purposes by James Gruse, who is addressing the use of a Paramount feature. One of the episodes of the picture, adapted from the three-act domestic comedy by Marc Connelly and George S. Kaufman, which comes to the Vendor of the theater for a run of three days on Monday night, shows a large number of workmen helping a piano factor at the noun house.

The regulate number was obtained without difficulty, and those engaged were plainly delighted at the prospect of an automobile ride to and from location with a day's work that spelled a holiday for them. Before Roach left with the "unknowns" hired for the occasion his fellow workmen in the studio shop presented him with a chair such as is customarily provided for directors, stars and leading players. This was properly stenciled with his name as was also a make-up box, also fashioned by his co-workers, which they filled with sawdust instead of powder, with sandpaper instead of a powder puff and with an assortment of colored chalk in place of grease paint. Appropriate ceremonies, in which studio electricians, property men and others joined, accompanied the presentation. LETTERS Dear Tony: Just a line to let you hear from me. But first I wish to thank you for the appeal you made through the columns for me, and wish to state further that the profession has forgotten me. I received one peatal card from a Miss Violet Smith and be for the profession. I am able to sit up at this time, but not able to go out as it will be about April before I will get well. I must say I certainly have suffered, but I thank God for life. When I was well and able to help others I did so, knowing that some day I may take sick and so I did, but every one didn't care, I guess. When you have money they all will be glad to see you and hear from you, but when you are sick and in distress they all forget you. Some day I will be back in the profession, but I won't treat others as they have treated me. I was too good to some of the performers, but I will remain the same true pal always and God will see after me, so I will close for this time. As ever professionally Dear Tony; Just a reminder to let you know where I am and I am how I am. I am a Tennessee Slipper man. A. Williams, joined the V. A. Brown, Tennessee Slipper man. A. Williams, joined the manager, is one of the first men I ever worked with you could meet him.

C., where Wintz's Shuffle Along, with Edgar Connor, Edgar Martin and Emmon Jackson, played a fine engagement last week: "Shuttle Along," a musical comedy with a much heralded all-Colored cast was given in the Academy of Music last night; it will be repeated tonight. It is the first of the major music interactions to be offered in this theater in some years. For a Colored company it enjoyed the best white patronage from a quartet and the two members of the choir were beiled seated in the orchestra and in the balcony. Colored patrons fammed the upper calleers and hung onto the words "In the original, the world of the new" of the band. The new choir was called "Colored musicians under a Colored director." The energetic chorus of about 20 young roleole Negro women is largely urged in the performance is is clothed in fresh costumes. The fact that a minstreul sort of a dancing number is the part of the band's "extractions of "The Ham Tree, the old McIntyre and Heath success, is not detracting from its qualities of enjoyment. It is the best of the books, is doing the thing, is doing a donna role, is doing Nellin Brown as a leading soubrette and Margaret Scott as the chief character woman. Much of the control of the show is to Mr. Mirelnot, a CI Watts and Edgar Connor. The atmosphere of the piece is jazz with more or less elaboration of sym "Shuffle Along" is probably the beat all-colored attraction that has come to town in which Black Patriot (Madame Sissier) and the S.

PAGE SEVEN—PART ONE Friend Tony: I note in your last issue I got a slight "rise" from Mr. "Syncopation" Jones. He touches on my letter sparingly and in a somewhat timid manner, and well he might. He says I might at least refrain from prevailing. I reply. I want to say that if he can prove that one single syllable in my letter was not as true as holy writ. I'll give $1,000 to any charity named. Let Mr. Jones speak up! He further says, "There are quite a few things he wants to say to me." There's a helluva lot of things I want to say to him, and I don't want to pick the time, place or manner of saying them. I'm getting the Defender letter-writing habit, that I see afflicts so many other people, and its columns are quite good enough for me to talk through, and I'm willing to let the pop-eyed world be the audience. He says further: "He may publish my this letter,"—meaning I can publish his letter. Unfortunately, he and his letter having the same value, it was, "Good morning, waste basket." However, the substance of it was that he had mailed the money due Dr. Vaughn to him and that the doctor had it before I got the letter in question. Twelve hours after I got the letter I called up Dr. Vaughn and he said he had not received the money. I may be spending some of my last millions trying to help put the old show game over, but I've still got enough left for Mr. Jones to collect a good, fat judgment against me. I want to say further that it is the "open season" for starting suits and I extend to Mr. Jones a cordial invitation to start something. I'll be at the meeting of the T.O.B.A. at Chattanooga, Jan. 31, and I'll give Mr. Jones and Mr. Bolssey DeLego some free advertising. TROUBADOURS Wm.

ETS OF EVERY DESCRIPTION OPEN TIME—WE BOOK UTATION AND RECORD TOO BIG FOR US LIVER THE GOODS CHICAGO SOCIETY Nurse Stacey's Suggestions to Middle Aged Women Middle Aged Women MRS. H. STACEY GOLLINGVILLE, JAMAICA AMOST trying period of a woman's life is that of middle age, fraught with danger to some extent, and invariably with most annoying symptoms, such as hot-flashes, smothering spells, nervous troubles, irregularities and fainting spells. When a woman like Nurse Stacey after many years of caring for the sick writes a letter of praise for Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound like the following, it should influence other women who are passing through the Change of Life to try it. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is a root and herb medicine especially adapted to act upon the feminine system. It helps nature to build up the weakened, nervous system, and enables women to pass this trying period with the least possible annoying symptoms. Nurse Stacey's Letter Follows: COLLINSVILLE, IL.—I could almost write a book in praise of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. In the first place my husband induced me to try it and I have continued taking it off and on for years. I have become a well woman from its use and am now taking it through the Change of Life just to be on the safe side. I first took it for backache and a weak condition of the whole system and I think it saved my life and my health as a mother and takes it herself and I think I can count as high as a hundred women. I have recommended the Vegetable Compound, to as I am a practical nurse. Use my letter in any way you see fit for I will stand by what I write—"Mrs. H. Stacey, Collinsville, Illinois. "During the Change of Life I was always tired and weak, could hardly do my work and did not care to go anywhere or talk to people. After I began to take Lydia E. bottles of it I felt like I had not changed and before I had taken four bottles of it I felt like I had not changed in cases like mine." - Mrs. Jos.

I am a very good woman I want the responsibility. I am worked when he was here last year, but now I am unable to see so was full of from the work five months ago. But I am not in return the following week, but he didn't respond for that, so, nor would he look at me when Wee was put in the house days he would sleep until noon, and when I would speak to him, he would be more than a myself. I have never seen the consequences, I have even with my people live weeks and has never offered his assistance. Princess, can I be a good one? I have given him a number of trials. I have given him a number of trials. I have always been an 'Enhyperity Wife.' As to securing a divorce, you will have no trouble, but allimony, my dear friend, will be a problem to me. I am a very good woman for you when he was with you, how do you expect him to do so when you are in a状态. It is a very good thing to be made, and now you will just be forced to grin and bear it. It's worth everything for you to be as nearly old of him as you should be. I am a very good woman with him. Whenever every minute spent to do things, I have a very good time to do things. I am a very good thing to do for his wife, his love for her is built upon the real convenience she is to do with, and when he has not a time to do things, he is a very good straw.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 192 a otherwise Princess Mysteria I am a girl, 18 years of age, and with my mother's consent, I have been receiving company almost a year, and I met a young man whom I learned to care for and he, I am sure, cared for me, but gradually his affections began to cool, the cause of which I could not fathom, but I soon learned it: was my sister, a girl of 15. I let this go unneeded. Now for the past six months she has been coming between me and my boy friends. They go with her a while, and when they tire of her they try to come back to me, but I won't let them. The thing that hurts me so is that she delights in doing this contemptible thing and brags about it. She'tells them I am jealous and this makes a bad impression; she klases from good night and everything to provoke me. She is a fine sister and is indeed very kind and friendly, but when it comes to boys—good night.—Worried. Your sister is too fresh and should be careful. It's too late. I advise you to tell your mother. If she does not already know it, you should warn it to warn all of the boys who take liberties with her, even though she perseveres. You should power to have them punished for their freedom with her. What she needs is to be able to help her for her and to then force her to cheat it. She is old enough to realize that she will do the same to some other person the part of a traitor to her own sister, she will do the same to some other person you do. She is too young to become a love thief, and the game is too playful. She is so snuded away from you by her are lacking in every known way any I can. So you don't consider that you have lost anything. If she or any other fresh mother it's too late. You them are doing you a favor. Dear Princess: I have read your good advice to others, so now I am a married woman, 19 years of age. My husband is 25. We have been married changed towns, and now my husband seems to care nothing for me at all. I don't want to meet anyone I don't want me to go to any place. I like to have some enjoyment. I met a woman who takes me out and takes me out. I don't know whether to stay with my husband, or not.

But the woman who lets a woman descrive the sanctity of her home, no matter how self-lible to more unpleasant latees. Don't remain with your husband if you want to, but choose the man later.

The ingratitude of baseball players and the interference of outside people with players may ruin the game, undoing the work of many years that has been given towards the upbuilding of the nation's pastime among us. Newspaper men write columns and any semblance of a real face to work on. They are trying to sway the public to believe things that are preposterous. One sport comes under that one owner made $50,000 last year out of baseball and as a consequence the players are jumping. The truth of the matter is the man who made $1,000 clean his team, nor did any man West or any man East nor any set of men make $50,000 last year or any other year. The man who made patronage, and few made it out of white baseball. Let's reason a bit. The big gates are on Sunday only. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday parks. Saturday is only a bit better than Monday. It can't be done. A case of players may be cited in the disgruntled ones who are jumping in to know that many of those who let the Western league and went East are getting less than they received in good deal of the dissatisfaction. Take the case of Harney. Came out and wanted to pitch against the Detroit team, working on a co-operative basis during that series. Monday's game drew only a handful of people. Each player in his pockets and gave Harney $20. Later, he offered Harney a contract for 1924. Harney hesitated; that was not what he wanted. Some of his friends have told him that he is worth twice the amount offered him because he pitched a win. He was not the other eight men on the team evidently. When he returns to sign, he does. he will find that his hesitation in money, as the amount offered when the contract was tendered him cannot be had now. That is what your adverts can do for you with their advertising. The statement of Mrs. C. I. Taylor last week in the columns of the Chicago Defender and the salaries of the rinks of the fans, who thought Charleston was pulling down that sort of a salary. Charleston may go to Harrisburg that Charleston is not the manager, but a first class baseball player—there is a big difference. If he goes both player and owner will have action. John Lord goes to the Bachmann Giants. Last year he went to Hildale. His treatment there, he claimed, was injustice. He was injured. John is rearing some of the things he saved. Wesley not his release from the Havana club. He is now in Palm Beach. He is injured. Defender that he was glad to get his release because he was abused, cussed and humiliated by the Cuban manager, and as he was defended goes everywhere—in Cuba—and he wants the public to know why he is glad to leave.

The success of this exercise he has never overlooked a single athlete of our group in his detailed accounts. There are hundreds of our boys taking part in the high school events. Howard and Lincoln both won in their respective divisions last year and the followers of both schools are looking for them to represent the country and are watching for, some unknown athlete to spring into the limelight by either breaking a record or beating a favier.

E CLUB TO DERBY SUNDAY Competent judges will be selected and the clerks of the courses will be picked from a list of competent people. The park officials have again promised to aid the club, as in the past. Among the youngsters who are expected to cop first places are Eddie King, spinner from the Englewood High school, who won first place, and Cornell Norris, who copped two first last winter. Should the weather turn out to be too warm, Mr. Crutchfield announces that the races will be postponed until the following week. Enteries will be taken on the ground and up to the last minute. Last year 25 persons took part. Besides Norris and King, Wilbur Clark, Chuck Green Joe Lane and others have their intention of entering this year. muted a Cuban umpire's decision, in some news. Wesley would make a good reporter. The jumping ball player not only disgusts the fans, but he is making of the future. Managers and owners will not in the future advance money on cartes as in the past, pay doctors and hospitals for members these advances running into the grocery and rent bills and take it out bit by bit during the playing season. Too many players have received these bills and meet the hundreds of dollars, and when spring time came they hiked to another part of the country to keep from these debts. The future players suffer. Now all ball players are not bad—far from it. But those bad actors who make their living by playing ball. The sooner they are gone the better. The public is getting to the point that they have little respect for these men. The signing of a contract means nothing. Some have their names arraigned on the contracts and no one knows until sprigs hits here just what it will. Big leagues have profited by coming to the league and respecting the contracts signed. They have a high commissioner and have even caused the little leagues like the Big Leagues to respect the contracts during the playing season and not to raid any club affiliated with the national commission or organization to follow. It will be well for the Colored club owner to think of these things, especially those who have the game, and it will be still better for the public to weigh these things and act accordingly. To tear down the game, and to have who have formed a combination, and to build up the metto of another. The fan knows that the Negro, National team, will unite up and to develop baseball among our group. Think well and long. YONKERS QUINTET WINS Yonkers, N. Y., Feb. I.—The Tiger A.

From the start the Indiana five took the lead to the end of the first half, 14 to 6. At the beginning of the game, the Brown of the Tigers, with their one hand 'shots' made a change in the score, heading for victory. The game was defeated by clean playing on both sides.

S. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1924 SAM BUSH READY FOR FRENCH TURF; SAILS FEBRUARY 7 New York, Feb. 2. - Samuel J. Bush, ex-jockey and at present owner of two thoroughbreds and trainer for J. Colt, the American horse who recently started racing in France, who arrived here the latter part of December on the Roachambeau, will embark for a year's subscription of the local metropolitan trucks were visited by Mr. Bush and he also made a whirlwind trip to Baltimore to look over some thoroughbred stock for Mr. Bush. He has been in France, he has been very successful as a jockey, and since he became so heavy he has been just as successful as a trainer for Mr. Colt. On the closing day at the Prix Gafanf, with Argus, and third in the Prix de Clement with Deshaies a column in the European edition of the New York Herald had the December 18 issue of that paper: "I ran the other day into Sam Bush, the steeplechase jockey and trainer. Sam is beginning to take on weight. It gets to be hard work reducing, and from now on training it's just well from, and you'll be occupation. His training quarters are at "Gene" Leigh's place at Maisons-Laffitte. He has two horses of his own—Pincus, a 4-year-old, and Loustic, a 3-year-old. He is trainer for J. W. Colt, the American owner who has recently started running here," Bush has pretty�ly set an Epinard, the gold French champion, who he declares to be the best horse since Man of War. "But if they bring him to America to race," said Bush, "he will never be at his best. You can't bring him to a distance and have him at his best, because you have to break his training completely." Bush's rise to fame rends like fiction. The writer of this article remembers back in 1916, from Sam copped the international classic run at Belmost park on Belle of Bryn Mawr, and then repeated on the same mare in 1917. In 1918, he also won the gold cup run off at the Pipping Rock, L. course, a riding the winners in the two long-compromised races of 1915 was quite an accomplishment. We'll say. Sam, who is a very interesting chap, was in the Army. He called "Gene" Leath. It is quite a few years since he got into the riding game. Sam was working in a hotel in Sarajevo, and he was on. When he had spare time, he would go to the training quarters and watch the horses. He was asked many times by trainers if he wanted a job. He would say, "You can ride." Bush always told the truth and said, "No." Finally one man took the job and worked for him for seven years. At the end of the apprenticeship, Sam was an accomplished rider and he has made many friends. Among the horses in Mr. Colt's stable, under the careful eye of Mr. DePasart, Tamerian, Soope le Haut and Armus. Other French thoroughbreds added to the stable from time to time. According to Bush, Jimmie Winkfield has been riding in Russia, Germany and France and are the two premier flat riders on the French tracks. Winkfield has been riding in Russia, Germany and France and is the recognized leading jockey of America. He got his start with Paul Ride and he rode for T. P. Hayes, winning the Kentucky derby for him on His Emilian. He was born in 1902 on Allan-a-Tale for old Tom McDowell. At the time when Jimmie Winkfield was, but had shown prominence, it know it, but it was Jimmie Winkfield who started Frankie on his career. His apprenticeship landed O'Nell as star rider for Hayes, and a few years later he horses on the eastern tracks, bought his contract upon the recommendation of Frankie. O'Nell had a public stable and also handed horses for Pierre Lorrall, Durley and Europe. Frankie rode for Harry Payne Whitney and Herman R. Duryea in this country. He is committing to O'Nell married the daughter of T. McCaffery, a famous horseman he acquired. He met Frankie on the other side, the old friendship of the early 1900's was the old palks ever since.

CHRISTOPHER SPIRIT REVIVES AT PARISH HOUSE New York, Feb. 1.—The revival of the old St. Christopher spirit was vividly shown at the grand reunion and dinner given at the St. Phillip's parish house, 215, 133, 5th and 134 years before. Just 23, where songs, cheers, smokes and rousing talks completely captivated the happy gathering. The affair was impressive, as 150 present and former members of old St. C. "gathered about the festive board and people of sumptuous life." The din was served by the ladies of the parish. The purpose of the reunion was to revive the athletic activities of the once-famous St. Christopher club. At one time this club was the foremost athletic organization of your group that was turned out many young athletes. Some of whom are our finest young business and professional men. A few years ago the boys seemed to drift from the club, and "St. C." ceased to be a beacon light among the young athletes. In a far-reverend and plans were made to again revive the spirit of the club and place it upon a higher pedestal. Several impressive talks were made. Romeo Dougherty of the Amsterdam News made a brilliant address, as did Charles Bradford, chairman of the Father Shelton H. Bishop, who has died, did his best to make it pleasant for the guests. In his speech he suggested opening clubrooms in the gym and the dormitory for the members. He read several complimentary letters from former members about the country and read of the great reunion. Oliver diner a basketball game was held in the gym, and smokes were abundant. Between halves, the players swarmed upon the floor and, after teaming off, delighted themselves at a rough little game of "muscle-stiff." The committee consisted of Charles Johnson, Herman Foster, Sigourney Smith and James Ravennell. POWELL BEST FRIEDMAN New York, Feb. 1.

WAS RAVING BEAUTY A heartrending and yet interesting thing happened in a down town store when a middle aged lady got into a loud argument with a clerk. "I know what I want," she kept saying. "I have tried all those other things, but I know from what I saw it do for some friends of mine, that it is Black and White Ointment which gets rid of these pimples and blotches. I was just as pretty as any girl when I was young, but I got careless and now I am in the fix you see." So many people are now insisting on Black and White Ointment to get rid of pimples, blotches, eczema, rash, letter, ringworm. "Breaking out," etc. because they see and hear of the thousands of others who now know they can depend on it. And it is more economical, too.

Mr. Howard just posted Siki's photos here today. That was enough. Long before 2:30, the time that Siki was to appear, the crowd was packed like sardines, making it almost impossible to make passage for him to get to his dressing room. The crowd was composed of men in every walk of life—the business man, newspaper man, politicians, managers of boxers and wrestlers, etc. The managers of boxers and the newspaper men came to give this wonder from Paris the onco of her, for anyone who knows anything about the fighting game. Whether he says it or he must give it. Siki all around the same man, he was game to come to this country the first thing, after all the wild, ridiculous stories that have been written about him far beyond the bounds of reason. It's harder—for a good man to live down a bad name than for a bad man to live up to a good name. One would think that the pleasant little Siki was the "bad man from Borne" at large. He is pleasant and very attolable. He shows just what he's about and he will come back long it, in time to come. He left his dear home in France to get the needed American experience more than the American dollar. He is paying an average price of $1 and has known it. The American promoters have done all in their power, in a match-making way, to get him murdered. As a rule, all foreign fighters who come to these sites are sent into a few set-ups to accordance the U.S. State of China. But it was not so with Siki. He was sent right into Kld Norfolk, by far the best light heavyweight in the world, the wise heads to a man overwoven. Mission Square Garden see Kld Norfolk, Siki, Siki is a step-up week. To their surprise, Siki was there to the end with a smile, some experts say, in half condition. The next frameup was Rattling Owens at New Orleans, a heavyweight, right of the same pounds. So Siki's 170. Owens is insisted to first-place in the heavyweight division. Siki went up against him like a man and carried the light to his giant opponent with little or no training. He was there at the same place. This is to the common canvice any good judge of boxing that Siki is a wonder man lacking experience. Siki can speak better English than any foreigner in this country for the length of time he has been here. On his way from the Defender office to the House of Commons he had he had learned to speak English since arriving in the country. He also said that he had learned a good deal about our way of fighting; that he was going home and that when he came again, which would be soon, that he would pay everybody for nothing to his job. He was the general opinion that Siki can't be managed. No he cannot—from the American way of thinking, and never will be managed in that way. He has been his own man—succeeded in his way. As he is when, a man gets set, he never changes. Siki stripped for action shows up like a little gladiator; not an ounce of surplus flesh, would not weigh over 170 pounds. When in fine condition, evenly made up with a body like the once-famed Fred Morris Muldoon Cyclone. With hand like Sam McVey. His two big outstanding artists are that is that the puff and has sound hands. You can't judge a man in the gymnasium, or race horse in the paddock. It's the test in the ring or the haddock on the track. No reference has tolled off his natural needs yet on Siki. That's more than any of our present day champions can say. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER HANDLING OF ESTRIDGE WAS POOR IN BOUT WITH MOORE New York, Feb. 2. - Hundreds of fight nets that patronize the Ted Moody Larry Stridge game are not any too well satisfied with the Ted Moody Larry Stridge game. Some apparently feel that Stridge was badly handled from his corner, three games back, regardless of the fact that he injured his "money" mug. This position point out that Larry can hit, and for what reason he was sent in to hold, and was in there hitting Larry with everything but on particular Harlem fan, who has seen Stridge in many of his encounters both in the amateur and professional game, who has attended - every boxing contest in this county any year - and who has followed to say Thursday relative to the misdeeds of Stridge against the Bledger. "Of course I was not in the boy's corner, and often times a man's faith when things look adyant to the fan sitting in the audience. If you will sit in the audience of Larry's knockouts, which are about 30, including amateur and professional bouts, have come before me. These recent bouts he has been instructed to have been less instructed to take a beating, would let him be instructed that he has been the victim of an assault, and that he meant to be that way. One thing is sure, the boy did not put up his regular fight. He can believe that Estridge put up his best fight; not because I desire to detract from Moore's gallantness, but because Moore nor any other of the good things said about him, but because Moore nor any other of the good things said about him, have seen has any business beating Estridge in 12 out of 12 rounds, and the Commonwealth club club. "With Manny Seamon and Joe Jacobs, the latter the manager of Frank Carbone and Mike McTigue, in Moore's corner, and Tom O'Rourke sitting close by, with absolutely no concern as to the outcome, things did not look good to me. Another match should be staged between these two boys, and I'm of the opinion we all will see a different fight. Until that time I'll not be convinced that things were just right in that fight. I'm not blaming the boy, because he is like any other boxer that makes instructions from his seconds." DICK KENT IN CHICAGO: BUYS 20 NEW TAXICABS Richard Kent, deputy sheriff and part owner of the St. Louis Stars, will be on the field of the week to buy 20 new taxicabs and to pause at the Defender office to see how the sport department is preparing the training train for his home town where preparations are being made to entertain the league directors and new owners.

SENATOR JOHNSON'S PLATFORM SENATOR JOHNSON, President Coolidge's principal if not sole competitor for the Republican presidential nomination, has recently made public the formation upon which he is to make his race for the election. On some points we are heard to mention which we are not in accord with him are vital upon which we are not in accord with him are vital and paramount, from our viewpoint. They relate to our citizenship and our right to a voice in the government under which we live. SPEAKING OF REPRESENTATION in the forthcoming national convention, especially from the Southern states, the senator is responsible for the nomination and the visibility of a single Republican elector being chosen in any one of these states, and yet the Republican national committee recently, after it had reduced South Carolina to four delegates and other Southern states in like fashion, deliberately increased the representation again and spoke faith with the rank and file of the Republican party. The Southern delegates are selected, as you may see, in Washington to a very few federal office holders. TO SAY that Senator Johnson was frank, candid and honest in the use of the above language would be a reflection upon his intelligence. In the first place it is not true that the committee made any material increase in the representation from the southern states. In Mississippi, for instance, the number of delegates in 1916 and 1920 was 12 instead of 20. The reduction from 20 to 12 was in part in consequence in if not an indulgence of Republican factions with the ballot box—a vicious policy which a small element of Northern Republicans seemed to countenance and favor. WHAT THE COMMITTEE actually did was to reject the report and recommendation of a subcommittee which sought to reduce the number from 12 to 4, thus making the few scattering Republican votes that the Democrats graciously allowed to be polled and returned the basis of representation in the election, instead of being appointed, which Senator Johnson insists should have been done, the effect would have been to put the party on record as having fully indorsed and approved the complete nullification of the fifteenth amendment to the federal Constitution. IT HAS BEEN ASSEMBLED that the committee was somewhat influenced in its action by the fact that the majority of Republicans living with the Mason and Dixon line, especially those of our group, that they would resent this action at the ballot box. All of which is true, but it would not have been on account of making the actual voting strength of the party from the different states the basis of representation whenever and wherever the same can be ascertained, but on account of generally action of the party in giving connection to objection of our voters through constitutional nullification. SENATOR JOHNSON must know that but for this constitutional nullification there are not less than six United States senators and at least 30 members of the lower branch of Congress who would be of a different political complexion. When he asserts that not a single Republican elector can be chosen from any one of those states he is affirming a fact for the existence of which he and those who agree with him are chiefly responsible. History shows that the facts are correct in his assertion. In 1866 General Grant, the hero of Appomattox, would have been defeated for president if the South had been solid against blim. IN 1872 WHEN GRANT WAS RE-ELECTED he carried Mississippi and Louisiana by a majority of more than 30 in each state. The same would be true of them today and at a national level. He was also a democrat. Democrat machines in those states, which Mr. Johnson seems to be in favor of having the Republican party approve and indorse. Again in 1876 Tilden instead of Hayes would have easily won the presidency if the South had been solidly Republican. He was a Republican electoral votes of South Carolina, Louisiana and Florida, resulting in his election by the action of the returning boards, yet it is an undeniable fact that Hayes would have had a majority on the face of the returns but for violence and fraud in the elections. Democrats in a number of states and parishes. WHAT THE SENATOR alleges about office holders must be received with many grains of allowance. He seems to overlook the fact that the man in the White House who wants to succeed himself always has a decided advantage over those who are out and anxious to succeed him. He not only has the party machinery but the federal patronage as well, and the party machinery will doubtless be in favor of the renomination of the man now in the same is true of those in California. The only difference is that in Republican states there is usually a state machine in addition to the federal machine, whereas in states controlled by Democrats there is but one, the federal machine. WHERE THERE ARE TWO MACHINES they sometimes work in harmony and sometimes are an aggrieved party machine may be for Mr. Johnson, but the federal machine may be against him. In any event the delegates chosen will be the products of one of the machines, if not both. NOTICE: CHICAGO COPS AT ONE HUNDRED and Seventy-first St. BROADWAY, New York, there is a traffic policeman who has been on the force for 12 years, yet ever made an arrest. His record is high in department despite this seeming laxity. He dropped five runaways in a daring manner, rescued two ladies from under the wheels of automobiles defaced and burned. He regulated traffic corner in the city and lies by kindness. It seems to be a difficult man for many of our Chicago policemen to answer a civil question, and if perchance you innocently speak some traffic rule the language that is hurled you and the rough treatment you receive is such red-bloodedness that is determined by the thought that the scout in this case is more powerful before the car and the taxpayer who employs him.

His record is high in the department despite this seeming laxity. He has atropelled a traffic officer in the language that is burdens of his hinders from under the wheels of automobiles and restored five lost children to their parents.

It seems to be a difficult matter for many of our Chicago policemen to answer even a civil question, and if perchance you innocently you have a traffic officer in the language that is burdens of you and the rough treatment you receive is such that any red-blooded man would resent in a forceful way were he not restrained by the thought that the servant in this case is more powerful before the court than the taxpayer who employs him. A few lessons in courtesy would unquestionably be of benefit to some of our overfuelled minions of the law. BY A SIMPLE EXPRESSION of sincerity and the exercise of a little courage Mr. Coolidge has made himself the most notable figure of his country. The recipe is simple; you'd think more people would try it. ITS JUST AS WELL that bootleggers don't give free lunch with every bottle of moonshine; food and moonshine don't mix anyway. OPEN SEASON ON BACHELORS has started. Bag limit is one, and no hunts may have more than one day's bag in possession on any one day. THE FARMING SITUATION A CASUAL SURVEY of the farming industry in certain sections of the South discloses the fact that thousands of farmers are preparing to leave early in the spring for other sections of the country where they can follow their vocation more profitably from many points of view. The great bulk of them seeking to buy land in Indiana and Iowa, states where diversified farming is the regular routine. There is, of course, no reason why diversified farming would not be as successful in the South as elsewhere, and those who are compelled for certain reasons to remain where they are doubled never more will pin their faith on cotton or sugar cane alone. Since the COO of Indiana on the Sunny South will be quite different from the ones staged in previous years, in that the migrators will not all be headed for the large Northern cities, but a goodly portion will settle on farms as owners, share-workers or help. This scattering will solve many perplexing problems, lessen friction and pave the land for ownership on a large and profitable scale by CITY DWELLERS have come to a full realization of the fact that their prosperity depends largely upon the farmer, and that it is to their advantage to aid the business of farming wherever possible. In large percentage of men and women better fitted for this line of work than for any other. Again, the greater number of producers we have the greater is our standing as citizens. In short, our salvation lies in "diversified employment." "All of us should not strive to be single collar" workers, nor should we all work together. THE FARMER of today carefully studies and analyzes his business. He applies scientific information so he may do his work more efficiently. He looks upon his work in the same light as the manufacturer, as he does in the same light as the thief in on a haphazard manner is the one who is having the toughest sledding. A cut in the cost of production will more than repay for the analysis and study. It is a hopeful sign when our farmers in the South, weighted down with unhebable living conditions, do not abandon their earnings. The farmer in the congenial environments where they may continue to till the soil and live in every sense of the world. RUSSIA PROBABLY the most remarkable bit of writing from the pen of Tolstoi in his later years was that of his prophecy in respect to world political developments, and particularly bearing on Russia. Tolstoi clearly predicted the Balkan war of 1912, even to the year. And he was equally as astute as his contemporaries, which followed two years later. He forecasted, with remarkable clearness the overthrow of the Romanoff dynasty amid the European confaguration and the rise in Russia of a coalescent leader, whose armies, like those of Napoleon's, would sweep from one end of Europe to the other. TOLSTOI PROCLAIMED this leader not to be of the trained soldier type, but rather a general, who had recognized in him this figure, even though he was cut down by death before the balance of the prophecy was fulfilled. It is beyond dispute that Nicolai Lenin was during the last six years probably the most spectacular figure in European statecraft. A man of gigantic intellect, deep feeling and undaunted courage, the civilized world recognized and feared, in a moment of crisis he was invited to give information on the condition of our group in America. It was the late John Reed and the Japanese submarine Seal, who were forced for some time in America, who constituted Lenin's chief source of information on the race question. DURING THE LAST THREE YEARS there has developed a factionalism in the Russian Communist party and it has been the pessimity of Lenin to a very large degree which has avoided a split. What the subsequent situation will be, at present one can only speculate. The three outstanding figures to succeed Lenin are Trotsky, Zinoviev and Stalin. Whatever direction developments may take it is truly hoped that the suffering masses of Russia will find relief in a strong, stable and settled government. A BIT OF HUMANITY IT WAS A GRACEFUL ACT on the part of Mrs. and Mrs. Coolidge to visit the sick rick in their faithful valet, Arthur Brooks, who has a defined to his home by a serious spell of sickness, though in a humble position, is one of Mrs. Brown's valuable citizens. That the occupant of White House should manifest their apperence in this manner must manifest the importance of the role he has been a member of cascade race, nor would the public press him on notice of it. It was not a social call, but humanity; still in view of the narrowness of the white Americans on the so-called race issue it exhibited of courage as well as a humanitarian art to make the call. But after all the President leader minded man than many had been led to race. While he is not as bold, as outspoken in aggressive in the championship of human rights of the equality of all citizens before the law, would like to have him, still we have every rebelieve that his heart is right, his intentions are right, that he personally he is faced with social antimony. WHILE WE were seriously apprehensive we president appointed as his secretary a man against the Dyer anti-lynching bill that is intended that he was antagonistic to things we deal and paramount, yet that apprehension, we yet entirely removed, has been materially improved. We hope that prior to the assembling of the final Republican convention in June all apprehension in these lines will have been entirely saved, and that should he succeed himself we are in the White House for the next four years in upon whom we can safely rely to see us in every section of the country regardless of color or religion. IT WAS A GRACEFUL ACT on the part of president and Mrs. Coolidge to visit the sick room of their faithful valet, Arthur Brooks, who has been confined to his home by a serious spell of sickness. Brooks is a member of the White House's valuable citizens. That the occupants of the White House should manifest their appreciation of him in this manner would have been nothing out of the ordinary had he been a member of the Caucasian race, nor would the press press have been so interested in the nature of humanity; still in view of the narrowness of some white Americans on the so-called race issue it was an exhibition of courage as well as a humanitarian spirit to make the call. IT SHOWS that after all the President is a brooklyn citizen many had been led to believe. While he is not as hold, as outspoken and as aggressive in the championship of human rights and of the equality of all citizens before the law as we would like to have him, still we have every reason to believe that his heart is right, his intentions good, and that personally he is not afflicted with special antipathy. WHILE WE were seriously apprehensive when the president appointed as his secretary a man who voted against the Dyer anti-lynching bill that it indicated that he was antagonistic to things we deemed vital and paramount, yet that apprehension, while not being a serious offense, was benefited by subsequent acts and utterances on his part. We hope that prior to the assembling of the national Republican convention in June all apprehension along these lines will have been entirely removed, and that should he succeed himself we will have in the White House for the next four years the opportunity to even-handed justice is accorded to all American citizens in every section of the country regardless of race, color or religion.

NOTHING could have been more God-sent for the common people of England than the recent political victory of the Labor party. About 50 families own the greater portion of the land in England. Labour has been able to create state parks and hunting ranges while the working class are compelled to be tenants. England owns India, a large portion of Africa, Canada, Australia, British West Indies—in fact about one-fourth of the territory of India. It is a country that has undergone degraded condition of poverty among its people than can be found in the cities of England. FOLLOWING THE ELECTION of the Labor party there was some apprehension manifested among the upper and middle classes of society as to what is going on in the country. The civil revolutionist the British Labor party has always been significant for its moderation. Nevertheless one may be certain that from the new government shall flow many much-needed reforms. FIRST and most important no doubt will be the need to make the government handling freeholders possible among the working class. Ramsay MacDonald as the new prime minister will no doubt bring about better understanding between England and Germany, the lack of which has to a large degree been responsible for the unseen labor situation in England. The labor will have attitude on the part of England toward Russia. SUCH A POLICY should contribute much toward bringing about a peaceful condition throughout Europe. To its credit it can be said that the British Labor party has always taken a very liberal and democratic attitude toward the darker races, not only within the British empire, but throughout the world, and as our group is essentially of the working clauses the foreign policy of our new government will lighten our burdens to be material.

Times-Union] Born in the dark jungles of the Senegal, where the wall of the witch doctor and the beating of the tom- toms have sounded in his cars, Louis Fall, known through his prowess in the prize ring as Battle Sikl. is proving to Americans these days that he is a primitive man only slightly venered. A week ago he fought an enemy in the rain of the folk, and although Sikl fared second best he showed a saggyy of attack under a rain of punishing blows that proved he is not far removed from the unclivilized. On top of this Sikl garnered $1,000 from his manager and proceeded to stir things up in the black belt of New York's Harlem, later to be taken to the city. Not foreseen where he escaped his entrants and bid for 24 hours in the woods. Sikli left his jungle home to fight for the tri-color of France. Under fire he was the same savage fighter, as fearless in the face of death or injury as he is in the ring. After the war the Senegalese boxer conquered Georges Carpentier—the ideal fighter in the face of glare of pitiless publicity Sikli revealed in odd deeds along the gay and boisterous boulevards of Paris. A child of the jungle, carried by fate to the pinnacle of Parisian popularity, Sikli was overcome by his own greatness. And now he is in America where gold awaits him in the prize ring, but the fight was not over. Sikli is following the same route that resulted in his being tossed to the depths of bitterness in Gay Parce. Other prize fighters have had their queer twists, but none弥led Sikh John L. Sullivan's barroom stunts were greatly advertised. Bob Fitzsimmons' playing with lion cubs was heralded in the press by the column. The show was a came in for no little publicity. And Jack Johnson's wild joy rides were a source of news for hungry fight fans so long as the champion with the golden smile occupied the heavy-weight throne. But none of these men were of the Slit type. Born an aside those things which are his savage heritage. He is nervous, flighty and as changeable as the wind. He has a certain amount of boulevard polish, and he has a quick wit that enables him to pick up the latest tricks of elfique. But underneath the surface is the blood of the jungle the artistry simplicity of primitive man. Is the prize ring trying to prove the Darwin theory correct?

Democracy—Soak the rich. FAY. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1924 DR. A. WILBERFORCE WILLIAMS TALKS ON PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES, HYGIENICS AND SANITATION WANTS INFORMATION pose of dissolving these tumors, or what is known in medicine as syphilis gumma. Medical science up to date has discovered and knows only one really sure cure for syphilis, and that is mercury. 3. The modern method of treating syphilis by injection will actually cure syphilis if the right kind of medicine is used. That is preparations of mercury or medicine containing mercury. 4. The sources of the outlet of the poison are by and through the pores of the skin, the kidneys, the bowels and lungs. By the injection method—that into the blood stream—we render the course of treatment shorter and effect a cure in a much shorter period of time. The medicine placed directly into the blood neutralizes the syphilic poison—the germ of syphilis, spirochete-pulida—and throws it out of the blood stream and it is thus killed there quicker than by the taking of medicine in the old-fashioned way through the mouth. 5. We know very little about the public health institutes. A great many people patronize such places; some claim they derive good benefits and others claim they do not derive any benefit. We are not sure if they are reliable, others say they are not ethical. But if you have syphilis or if any of your friends have syphilis we would advise you to put yourself or your friends in the hands of a good, reliable, skillful physician and pay for the care of them on any public health institute that you know nothing about. What you want and what you need is personal contact—face to face—with an individual who will take an interest in you. In public health institutes no one is particularly interested in you by number—just like cattle—you become No. 1, 2, etc. You are treated; they accept your money and tell you to come back at a certain time. In other words, it is seldom that you get good service or any valuable article for nothing. You must indicate you on your intelligent letter and the timeliness of its contents. By A: LA JACKSON fed. His fine connection and affiliation with the Billboard, the recognized organ of the profession, gives him an opportunity for service both ways. He is the kind of man who by his personality and ability is bound to make the other fellow sit up and listen. He is naturally fair minded and considerate in his judgments. But we stray from our subject. Whether we happen to like "Roseanne" or not, this production is a valuable thing. Its very production and its survival, if it survives even for a brief period, is tough with promise for us. It is a fertile field for other products than musical comedy and black-face minstrels. The very fact that Miss Crystal Herne has taken a leading part in a play of this kind will induce others to seriously study this field for its dramatic possibilities, which all of us will find interesting but it has been so difficult to convince producers and actors who control the destinies of the American stage. We doubt that the Haitians will agree with the optimistic summary of the Haitian situation made by General Lejeune, who gives great credit to the American marines for the military conquest of Haiti. We suggest that people have been rescued from misery and now enjoy peace, liberty and prosperity. All this at the hands of the marine corps. We confess our inability to view our marines as missionaries of anything but military regulation and sudden death for the young officer afterwards declared inane by the body which investigated the charges made here by James Weldon Johnson after his visit there. We hope there is ground for the optimism of the general, but we are not sure that he has given a chance to go for themselves and the marines given a vacation as far as Haiti is concerned. Mr. V.

Thanking you in advance, I await your reply. Reply: 1. Yes. Syphilis can be treated and contagious by taking an absolute specific syphilic treatment.

The people in olden days, or before the discovery of the infection treatment of 606 and 214, relied on the use of a simple treatment of syphilis: Various forms of mercury internally and externally—and sometimes eternally.

A small number, about 50 to 125, favored preparedness as sufficient protection against war, obliged the expression of opinion was taken when a vote of the whole convention was taken on four propositions which represented the most abundant expression of opinion on the subject. Approximately 400 took A. L. Jackson A. L. Jackson the position that war is sinful and that they would take no part in it. About 90 declared themselves as out and out pacifists in a meeting held outside of the convention. This is not surprising, given that the fact that the Colored delegates were received on absolute equality with other delegates and welcomed at the hotels and so forth, as all of our own correspondents faithfully reported. A convention animated by the spirit shown in this note on the convention and an earnest enough to cry down discrimination anywhere. These young people represented good Christian homes and trained, intelligent minds. They knew what pacifists and sufferers during war were, and personal experience what war is. And they voted their convictions. As these young people take up their tasks out in the world they are bound to spread their ideas and win over their enemies. It is a time that statesmen are looking to the futures with clearer vision. A public opinion is evidently growing up in this country which will make the going for the old-time, loud-eyed, frightful difficult. Slogans and Fourth of July speeches are evidently losing their potency with these young people. This ought to give everybody food for thought. It is a fine thing that these young people are fighting against race prejudice and a finer thing to have set themselves against hypocrisy and hatred and the will to do murder for causes that were better lost if fair dealing and justice will not be possible. This ideal can be made practicable in this or the next generation, but it is refreshing to see it grow in strength and stature. ROSEANNE THE new play now at the Greenwich Village theater in New city, written by a Southern white woman, seems to evoke considerable comment. Less than the ministers of the Race and another critic thinks that it is very much overdrawn. Despite the fact that the members of the cast are Southerners they do not seem to be able to satisfy many of the brethren who have viewed the play. Even the southern family and black-face are not sufficient for characterizing the brother "as is." We have not seen the play. We hope it will stay on the boards long enough for us to see it on our next trip to New York. Meanwhile we await the judgment of our friend, J. A.
