May 16—The climax to the African Methodist Episcopal 27th quadrennial conference, in session here since May 3, was reached Tuesday in the election of bishops and general officers. Three bishops were elected after 11 hours of political maneuvering, while several able candidates were sent into town to await their turns and another chance. Those elected to the bishopric were the Revs. A. L. Gaines of Baltimore, J. A. Gregg of Wilberforce and Reverdy Ransom of New York, editor of the A. M. E. Review. The Rev. J. A. Hawkins was re-elected to the Ira T. Bryant was re-elected head of the Sunday School union and publishing house. The greatest ovations accorded any of the successful candidates were bestowed upon the new bishops and especially Ira T. Bryant, when it was finally determined who were the winners. Bryant, who had been the former president of the defined program and a thorough report concerning his activities as secretary and treasurer of the Sunday School union, received the least opposition of all the candidates and was swept to an impressive victory. One of the most significant items in the report was a statement that he had cleared the title to five pieces of property belonging to the church, by transferring the claim from himself as trustee to the Sunday School union at Nashville. He also recommended that one of the buildings of the union be converted into a home for indigent retired minors and a commendable apothecary greeted the referring of the report to a committee. Last week the conference adopted unanimously a resolution to grant a gratuity of $1,000 to the Rt. Rev. Benjamin Franklin Lee, Lee, bishop who voluntarily retired after 32 years of service. On Tuesday, last week A. J. Wilson was elected as head of the Episcopal committee. The biggest surprise of Tuesday's session came when R. J.

Mabene of St. Louis, president of a millionaire toilet manufacturing concern. The election turned out to be a fight between the northern and southern states for a greater representation on the floor of the conference, suffrage for women and the standardization of educational institutions. This program was led by George W. Bush, president of Los Angeles and J. M. Avery of North Carolina. At present women are not allowed to participate in the voting and are confined to sitting in the gallery. Tuesday 500 women left the galleries with banners and plaques. A woman staged a spectacular demonstration for women suffrage. Financial Statement The financial statement was read by the Rev. John R. Hawkins of Washington, D. C., who was reelected Tuesday. It showed an interest in the research, which brought the wildest demonstration ever seen in a general conference. He recommended a revision of the entire financial system along budgetary lines. The church has about 700,000 members paying between 50 and 60 cents a year for the general work of the denomination. In the last four years $1,371,003 was raised. Dr. Hawkins recommended that the conference provide for the standardization of the theological seminaries and colleges so that they will do the work they are advertised to do. He proposed that teachers and administrators as a first step in strengthening the schools and increases for pastors in the interest of the church. Every member should pay at least $5 a year to provide a fund of $2,000,000 to carry out the educational mission. He proposed that the general permit salary increases, Dr. Hawkins said. He favors paying the bishop $1,000 a year in addition to their expenses, and that the salaries of the general officers be raised. His suggestion was met with booze from the students. The conference closes next Friday, May 23. Other elections will take place before that time.

And the fact that no other medicine has been able to overcome this disease only emphasizes the reason for the great popularity of St. Joseph's G. F. P. More and more, our women and girls are finding that the use of this great medicine is making improvements in their personal appearance, increasing their vitality and building up their health and strength. more than they ever dreamed was possible. The rapid spread of the fame of St. Joseph's G. F. P.; the astounding sales record of more than a million bottles in the few short months since this medicine was first introduced to our women and girls and the tremendous and hearty interest shown by our women who are using it, in getting other weak and sickly women to secure the relief this phenomenal medicine affords, proves beyond a doubt that its discoverers are right in their claims to have found the thing which overcomes and stamps out that dreaded malady, which has been keeping our women from enjoying the fullest pleasures of society and the blessings of motherhood. Every girl and woman wants that girlish buoyancy, that bright, attractive face, snappy eyes and vigor of youth and to regain that lost vitality and ambition; to be rid of that rumdown and depressed feeling and that unexplained pain and cramping many women suffer. Since St. Joseph's G. F. P. is proving so successful in overcoming these ailments there is no further need for our women and girls to drag themselves around the house, too weak to even care for the society of their neighbors and friends and to care nothing about their personal appearance because of pain and misery. The cause of these nerveracking irregularities, headaches, backaches, pains in the back, sides and limbs, nervousness, dizziness, fainting spells, hot and cold flashes, nausea, cramping, swelling of the limbs during pregnancy and that terrible run-down and worn-out feeling of fear and depression, so common nowadays, has been definitely proven, in nine out of ten cases, to be Catarrh of the Female Organs. And there is a real medicine at hand to overcome and stamp out this disease. This is being proven more and more of our women and girls. In all sections of the country and in homes of every sort, from the richest to the poorest, we are seeing their health and strength through the use of this marvelous medicine. In social gatherings between neighbors or friends, the wonderful effects of F. are becoming the chief topic of conversation. And the wonderful changes in the improvement of those neighbors, the glowing with health and full of ambition, energy and vitality through the use of this great medicine are the reasons why they were formerly unable to do their housework are now well and strong again; giver are now admired and happy; undernourished women are now healthy and vigorous with rich blood coursing and throbbing blood in their arteries.

Bankett's election has put a populist before Race voters of Indiana, likely known that very tative, was was Bankett has for 25 years been with the Democ- ratic party and the Race Candidate Race candidate Bankett has has put a peculiar angle in the politics of Indians. It is clearly that very know support came to him from his own people. He was elected entirely by the Republican ticket, and the Republican ticket were two Race members—Dr. James Norvell for state senator and Thomas Dexter for state representer. Both these were defeated in this election as in the older four years ago. It is clearly known that the Republican candidate is dominated by the Ku Kux Klan and "white-lythism" is the dominant factor. The Democrats will make a strong appeal to the voters in the state while the white Ed Jackson, who was named on the Republican ticket for governor, was nominated almost entirely by Klan votes.

We will be here who caree Readers of this newspaper have been made acquainted with the A. J. L. E. conference held in Louisville, Ky., during the present week. There is but little doubt that a tremendous amount of work will be done by the leaders of that great denomination during this season and it is to be hoped that some action will be taken which will lead to the elimination of conditions such as the one which inspires this article. There never was a time when action of the sort was more needed than now and the writer wishes to call attention to the fact that "churches" of every sort are springing up on every side like mushrooms. Shacks which are not fit for dog houses; tumble-down shanties which any self-respecting hog would look at twice before entering, and old ramshackle stores which reek with the odors of rotten wood and flith are being turned into so-called "places of worship" by a group of exhorters whose strong hands should be operating a pick or shovel instead of, polluting the Holy Bible by their crooked contact. The entire idea is as much of a racial disgrace as it is a religious one, which is saying a great deal. No man, regardless of creed or color, should be permitted anywhere to preside over the purpose of prescribing who has not received proper education and who has not been named for the purpose of prescribing their thorities. If ministers are to be sent into suburban, or outlying districts where there is any doubt that they are competent to carry out their civil support from the congregation served, they should be paid in sufficient amount to carry their decentralized bishops responsible for their appointments. This should be adopted by all denominations and there should be no shortage of bishops augmented for the purpose of driving out of the "religious business" the parishes to thrive through conventualism, such as those referred to above. There should be no middle ground. This class of bishop steeves is a disgrace, a detriment to the people at large and to religious institutions in particular. The Chicago bishop should at any time to add a born campaign of elimination. It is needed. FINED FOR FIGHTING Mrs. Fannie Holland, 121 E. 33th St. station.

He was treated by the company physicians for several weeks and then discharged for duty, but he found that he was unable to return to his occupation. He was forced to seek lighter unskilled work and was unable to earn the amount he had earned before his injury.

The most pusistant sovereign grand commander not only dealt with the organization, but was one that would tend to increase race pride and solidarity. He said in part, "the feeling of migration of our Race from the Southern to the Northern states is presenting new problems and new challenges. We must try to educate these people to their duties and opportunities of their new homes. They must be taught thrift, the cure of their physiology. They must be taught to emulate the best and not the worst of life with which they are surrounded and by doing so become a better type of person. They must be trained in maternities and our churches, and we must extend them a welcoming hand with the assurance that with their help we will overcome problems confronting our group today." "The 33d degree," said the sovereign grand commander, "is not a prize to be awarded on the basis of favoritism any more than it is to be won as a result of successful lobbying or political masonry.

Rucker, Great Republican, Is Dead Atlanta, Ga., May 16.—The Hon. Henry A. Rucker, Sr., for over 40 years a leader in Republican politics in the state of Georgia, is dead after an illness covering the greater part of the state. He was one of one who for this 40 years has fought locally and nationally for the rights of his people politically and economically. He was stated that the Georgia delegation, aided by a few others from the South, has practically dictated the nomination of every Republican president from the time of Lincoln to the present. In this procedure Mr. Rucker has always been a leader in the conventions between 1888 and 1912.

He refused to raise the rent of his properties until he was able to afford the times because he "felt that he did not want to take advantage of another misfortune. He once called Mr. Trent to ask him the "Y" to his house when he was unable to walk to the "Y". He had heard that Mr. Trent had put pool furniture in his house and the city of its members voted for their installation. He had heard that some of the financial support of the installation was due to effort to keep boys and young men out of certain dives. He voluntarily gave Mr. Trent a substantial check that he conceived to be a good work. Henry A. Rucker was born in Washington, Ga., Nov. 11, 1852. In 1871, he graduated from Jefferson D.

ZION CHURCH CONFERENCE AT INDIANAPOLIS, IND. Man 114 Years Old Has Never Drank a Drop Man 114 Years Old Has Never Drank a Drop Alamo, Ga. May 16—Another contender for the world's old age championship has been found in the person of Dempsey Harris of this city. The super-centenarian claims to be 114 years old, and says he can readily remember the day of General Lee's surrender. He says he was there and it was on his birthday, 55. One Dempsey has been living in Alamo for many years, having moved here from Virginia with John Jones, a turpentine man. He is a model example of what does not use tobacco, curse nor has he ever used liquor. He is a stanch Democrat and has been all his life, and has never been to Georgia. Before coming to Georgian, Harris was a slave of Ed. Harris, a prominent Virginia planter. SENTENCE ROBBERS FOR BOLD HOLDUP St. Louis, Mo., May 16—A jury in Circuit court gave Reardon, 53 years old, 1518 Belle Glade Ave., a lighter sentence than Mike. He replied on a plea of guilty to the same offense a week previously in the same court. Reardon was given two years in the penitentiary on the jury's verdict, while Neary was given three years on the same. The two men were white and notorious "footnads" with police records. They were caught in the act of holding up Mrs. Bessie Thomas, 2368 Wash St., 2327 Wash St., on January 31, by William H. Pryor, a night watchman of our Race, of 4326 F. Sterdinand Ave., who slipped up behind the robbers as they solved on Lanum and his companion. Neary had a drawn revolver while Reardon was going through Lanum's pockets. Pryor, who is 60 years old, knocked the robber with his pistol and so completely unarmed the other white man that he surrendered. SHOPLIFTERS CAUGHT Philadelphia, Pa., May 19.—Misses Georgia Brenooff, Lombard St., and Mabel Cox, S. 11th St., were arrested after a chase along Market St., after they had stolen three dresses from a central department store. A. B. JUDGE FREES MAN ARRESTED WITH LIQUOR Says "Hip-Pocket Not Subject to Search" Philadelphia, Pa., May 16—A saloonkeeper who was arrested with a half pint of whisky in his hip pocket on one occasion, a judge Judge Brown in Municipal court recently upon a ruling that search and seizure warrants do not permit him to buy liquor, the decision was Judge Brown's second interpretation of the law within a week. He discharged a Pelletier in the courtroom, 90, although the boy admitted buying liquor for a guest who concealed the fact that he was a detective. Judge Brown took the view that he was not a suspect or influence others to break the law, Argues a Man Is Not a "Thing" The hip pocket ruling was made in the case of Martin Miller, a saloonkeeper, of 608 S. Front St. Miller was charged with possession of a firearm, and a judge had entered his saloon, supported by a search-and-seizure warrant. No liquor was found on the saloon premises, but as the police were about to arrest him, whisky protruding from Miller's pocket Quoting the Snyder enforcement act, regulating search and seizure warrants, Joseph L. Moss, counsel for Biller, contended before Judge Brown that a warrant could not be issued for the search of a person because he was not a "thing." The Snyder act reads: "A search warrant shall be issued for the search and seizure of any mash, still, implement or other property, which is possessed in or upon any room, house, building, boat, vehicle, receptacle, premises or any other place or thing whatsoever." “Is man a ‘thing’ within the meaning of this act?” the attorney queried. “Certainly not. A man cannot be called a ‘thing.’ He asked Judge Brown to order the jury to return a verdict of not guilty. James W. Tracy, assistant district attorney, replied that the contention of the defense was “ridiculous.” The uphold it, he said, would mean that “any man could sell liquor from his hip pocket and be immune from arrest.” “If you are going to construe the law in that light,” he told Judge Brown. “Then it is a farce.” Judge Brown took the view that a man was not a "thing," and not being referred to by any other position, he could not be the object of a search warrant. He ordered the jury to acquit Miller. Judge Brown's charge to the jury in the bellboy case last week exited much unfavorable comment. The police were told by Judge Brown that they made themselves liable to barring the bellboy from encouraging litigation, when they induce others to soil their liquor. Husband Saves Wife and Family in Fire Philadelphia, Pa., May 19, 18—Martin Stewart, his wife and four children escaped through a second-story window when he started in their home, 332 N.

St. Louis, Mo. May 16—Governor Hyde's refusal to permit election of a governor to large to the national convention by the Republican state convention at Springfield, which he controlled, drew 1,000 delegates. The citizens here last Saturday. None of the 65 Race men attending the meeting, held at 2312 Market St., opposed the resolution. Citizens were present from St. Louis county, Kansas City, Jefferson City, Hannibal, DeSoto and Sedalia. The meeting was held by J. E. Mitchell of a local newspaper, Dr. T. A. Curtis presided. A resolution was adopted request- ing the governor to national convention to oppose the governor if his name gets before the governor as a candidate for vice preside- nent. State Representative Walthall M. Moore was the candidate of our voters for delegate-at-large and had been placed on the slate which had the governor's approval until a few hours before the convention. The resolution blamed the governor personally for failure of the state convention to elect a Race man, stating that he had complete domination over action of a majority of the delegates and dictate the action of the convention. Moore was eliminated at the elevator, and he was sent to the ville, an appointee of the governor, might on the slate. Pierce subsequently was elected by the conven- "This action of Governor Hyde," the resolution declares, "is a culpination of acts of unfriendliness toward Missouri, in that his administration has been a complete failure of no practical good in the interest of the Colored voters of the state, whose support made his election possible. The fact that he is not entitled to the confidence or support of the Colored voters of Missouri for any office in the future." The resolution provides that delegates The Republican state committee, meeting here early in the year, adopted a resolution requesting the governor to delegate-at-large. The governor's influence dominated the committee meeting as it did the convention. A delegate-at-large of our Race from Kentucky in 1920 Republican national convention. RUMBLE OUT FOR DR.

But is satisfaction, obsessive nose affect nose affect real feelings? keeping up with the times as de- veloped old fossils from the human of human kindness has been de- signed. M. One has only to sit in a theater and watch his fellows during the progress of a deep emotional play: one has the garment of human passions and plums our emotional depth. Then one watches one's neighbor as he glances furtively about, reaches surreptitiously for his handkerchief and dals sily at the tear that is making its damp and shameless passage down his cheek. Then one is justified in doubting that sentiment is senile, passe and obsolete. We wonder what the non-sentimentalist and the K. K. K. K. K. thought about the enthusiastic demonstration indulged in in honor of the new cardinal. It tends to prove that the good old fashioned sentiments love for the upright, honor for the courageous and applause for high achievement are not dead, nor even dormant.

He thought new scenes would stimulate his failing health and with Mom's consent, even when his life was at a low frequency, his thoughts turned to Mom. You who doubt the constancy of man's affection, the strength of his life, the need for the help of the man, he known Henry in these days when he was slipping slowly but surely over life's urging into the body of the unknown, but the difficulty to Mom's hand, smiling lowly into her eyes. Such was his vitality and strength of willing to do his work, looking for the help of Mom by allowing. Mom will now be in due upon the road. Not until he saw Henry looking dauntlessly into the eyes of his child, he was soوحام. His indemnitable will carried him over the trip. He was quite unconscious when he penced him upon the head. When he went to the bedside and took his hand in her wrinkled, worn palm, his spirit struggled, wrenched itself from death's reach and greeted Mom with a brave smile. "Henry," Mom, then the weary eyelids clouded, momentarily, "Mom," This is—the finish "No, Henry, it's the beginning," "You're always right," it's the beginning. We who watched thought he was gone. Mom elung desperately to his aid, disputing with death for possession, again his eyelids flattered and owned. "Mom," In an anguished whisper, "I know you when I gone?" "Did, bud." "You're always right—you're always right—you're always right—" it won't be long, Henry. "A smile, a long drawn sigh, and I listen to you on the phone," Henry. "Henry," Henry. "Well, really, we withdrew, and left them alone, the living and the dead, and then Mom, her mission ended, soon followed Henry. "There any who could know such people and look upon such a scene and there be any, to such we would say. It is you, who through living, are you you."

JOHN C. HARRIS "Ragtime" Billy Turkish He controls the Chicago, Newport and Iona Inn bars and rates. The prettiest places in The Juana are the Red Mill and the Newport, and you haven't seen The Juana should be displayed on the two places. Like any other place in this will be world you will find Race hatred. Some Southerners also have invaded Mexico and even here you will find a simple stagnation of the people who down that "Colored trade not solicited." So far I have only found two such places, both owned by the white brother. As a rule the Mexican people don't give a rap how dark you are or what you were. In fact, they are inclined to be more friendly towards the Colored brother. Every place of business in town has some kind of music—every kind of a band you can mention. Some Haalians, Spanish, Italian, white, and black, but the least, bands are often used to be the same. Race. There are the same bands in town working at Syl Stewart's places. Eddie Rucker, one of the Race's foremost entertainers is working at the Palace bar with a white band. The same band is the White Band and Eddie keeps the business up to the standard. If he should leave he would carry most of the trade of the Palace with him, for wherever Eddie goes n certain amounts of the business goes. He is one of the biggest priced entertainers in the Juana. Most of the business comes from Los Angeles, the city where the tourist from the East. The fare from San Diego is 50 cents, $1 round trip. The itinerary is 12 cents from the line to city center. The bus is 10 cents down here. A person can learn more in a day in La Tijuana than he can learn in the city. So if you are seeking excitement The bus down here with thousands and double down here with thousands and double down here with thousands and back go penny-piles. They call the bus. You'll have to go for yourself. Like most others, I came, I saw, and I'm ready. Los Angeles has the 'greatest two races in the form of amusements.' The Golden Bowl, home of the 55 in attendance, last Saturday to run for 14 days and charity events. It opened last Saturday to run for 14 days and decorations and flaring lights in honor of the 55. It will decorate the dorms. If one should chance to go to the lot where the pageant is being held, the parade will show, concessions and rides galore, and everywhere. The parade on the opening day was a treat, with the center of attraction all over town and the parade lucky enough to view it. The pageant is La Vavitt, who is well known in the amusement world and who has staged the country. 'He deserves credit for the manner in which he put over this Monday night also was a great night at the Philharmonic auditorium, where the ladies' ministrole is full, a number of children of Mrs. C. Bilbrew. It was even greater this year than ever. Herefore they have been holding the ladies' ministrole at the office of editor of the news year, and the editors have been increasing steadily and as the Philharmonic is the largest house in Los Angeles, so far as the second half of this month, and which turned out to be the best after all. Long before time, for the doors to open the throngs, was working their way. The auditorium. Our old friend, EA Tolliver of Georgia, ministrel fame. But the finishing touch on the show and your could see his words of the young man, "A day to do it." Bilbrew held down the middle and had all the support in the world with the following on the end: Lottie Holtzman, the first of the 19th century, the springtime Brown and Pete Beavers. The ladies quintet was one of the outstanding features of the show. In 1980, it was the first of the show of the year. The V. Howard description of the show, and the first of the piano, is in many specialties we were offered and all went over with a bang. All in all, it was a "ெhang" of a show. Fulton Alexander, whose name is here when he was the first of Jackson's Trio last year and married one of our Los Angeles girls and developed her into a fine little actress, has formed a team with the name of the first of the first-time in her life. In Los Angeles for the first Levy Office, Fulton has one of the most pleasing personalities that I have ever had, and he is a dance of exceptional ability. Los Angeles is eagerly awaiting the arrival of his wife who is in to make his Los Angeles debut at the Philharmonie auditorium Wednesday. He is the music lover of Los Angeles and tickets for the music lovers of Los Angeles and tickets for the music lover of Los Angeles. It is going to be one great night for Los Angeles, as Glorence Cameron over the Pacific coast and is sure to have the success he has enjoyed for so long. Well, Tony, think I will bring it to a nose.

Box 864, Dept. 1 --- --- "Each His Brother's Severest Critic" Paraphrasing the classic line of the stage success, "Merton of the stage" describes the true situation with Ernest and David Torrence, features, who have adopted a policy of mutual criticism in their screen work. "Each of us," declares David, with Jacqueline Logan three years older, "has a Dawn of a Tomorrow," a George Medford production which opens three times on Monday, "is both constructive and inspiring in our comments on our respective pieces on the stage for years and we feel that we know good acting from them." "We will never be ecstatic or sarcastic. We are certainly interested on the stage for years and we feel that we know good acting from them." The lay gritic does not have. So when David interviews each other's work, either in the projection room or on the stage, he views each other's work, either in the projection room or on the stage, in a memorandum of our analysis. And David without hesitation presents his work in several scenes of "The Dawn of a Tomorrow." Watch your feet—an actor is not supposed to fidget when his work is in action. See you tonight—Ernest. "The Dawn of a Tomorrow" is an award-winning love and regeneration, an adaptation of the novel and play of the musical Burnett.

The review of Dudley as referee and of the Old Roll Top Desk Man as bottle holder, could be secured and a glorious time would be held by all. The Kid should give the idea to be broken only by Snow replaced Eva Smith Brown in the act some weeks ago. Eva went home to attend her mother, who is ill and will rejoin the Kid in the near future.

GIANTS TO PLAY CUBANS NEXT 4 GAMES Islanders Open Series Saturday Afternoon The Cuban Stars, none needs any explanation—from Cuba, yes, and full of pep. Same old bunch, always troublesome and always playing Foster's men harder than any club in the future. For more, the Saturday, May 17, for a four-game series. Off in the rut by virtue of their losses at Birmingham, the Islanders showed their strength Monday by handing the St. Louis Stars their first defeat of the season when Peter Ivy was ever in misseason form. A number of new faces are with the Islanders. The Giants need all the games they can win because Kansas City is raising need all along the circuit and the Giants want to be in a comfortable position. They have March to turn to Chicago on May 30 for five games. Sunday's attraction is the last league games until the Monarch series, the Giants going to Port Wayne, Ind., on the 24th for one game and recurring here with Fort Wayne. The team's Sunday is the 5th. Molina will send his best pitchers against the Giants starting Saturday, in an effort to gain lost ground. The Giants believe they have hit their stride by the way they have hit against Cleveland, but one can never tell you how much out and pull for them to win unless they want Chicago trailing in the dust at the end of the league season.

SUNDAY'S GAME Playing like a lot of sand-slot batters, the Giants played some good baseball. The land Browns lost to Foster's crew, 12 to 11. He wilted best out a hit to Francis. Playing like a lot of sand-lotterats at times, missing easy outs, the Cleveland Cavaliers, to 2, in an uninteresting game, which with the exception of two or three of the visitors, would have been chalked up as an lustless, nonthreatening infancy, however, that there is the markings of a Singer, who was brought in from center field to play second: Ray behind the ball, who was the second two named beitners, show ability and form. But in right field and other places some new timber is Torrent doubled to start the second. The Cauzah was caught in the net. Franks, Grant singled over second. Evans fled out to Miles. Then Gordon went to the net. Then he went right. He played the ball was in the beginning and to make matters worse he took his time and carelessly as he sang. Singer at second. In the meantime he threw third and beat it safely for home. Marlarcher's single in the ninth was wasted. McDonald erred on into a double play. Cubans next. Fields got the rankest kind of sup- pression when the Giants began to play "horse" with the Forest City lads in the 1960s.

TUESDAY'S GAMES Notwithstanding the heavy deluge of rain which came down in the morning the sun shown sufficiently by 1:30 to dry the diamond so the series could continue. The first game of the twin bill was started shortly after 2 o'clock. Whitworth master pitcher, who is staging a comeback, worked against Johnson and both breezed along in big league style until the sixth when the Giants got to the Cleveland twirler for five hits, totaling four runs. A double play and a base on balls were also added in the excitement. But those Giants—killed to the extreme by the local fans for the way around by those Monarchs—they went to it in the first inning. With the ball around by those Monarchs, they through second, Marlacher fled to left. Brown's double, which hit the fence and bounded back, scored a crispe and dumped one in front of the plate, at which time Catcher Haves and got the other's lees out of the way in time and when the ball was finally safe in Fields hands, he got the other's lees out of Brown on third. Torrenti slammed one into left field, scoring Brown and Wilkinson. Even with the three-run lead in the Giants second frame it looked as though he was going to leave with Evans in single, McAdoo singled to left and a quick bit of fielding by Harris to get Evans off the bag, Gardner walked and McAdoo took care of Harris gathered in Marlacher's fly. Howitt started the trouble by shinning a good stop. Marlarcher caught McAdoo playing in for a bunt and a good shot. Marlarcher caught up at third. Marlarcher stole second. Brown worked Johnson for six minutes and a triple to scoring three runners ahead of him. McAdoo played a double. Bobby, Grant hit into a double. Johnson to Singer to McAdoo. Evans scored the ball out of the wind carried the ball out of the Whitworth was safe on Perry's error. Howitt led to Johnson. Howitt led to Then came the "comedy of errors" — "quarrels" — who really "doing his Jones" on Mother's day, poked a single to left, and fielded the field, who beat Bobby to first. Torrent bounced a drive at Perry's feet, and he put his hands to handle and for a bib. Brown's walk and theft of second was followed by Bobby Williams' catcher to romp home in the seventh in the eighth the Glants gathered a two out two out Gardner doubled. Hewitt's single to a single to center. Marner walked after Hewitt stole second singled to singled to, scoring Hewitt. Harris reried on Grant's easy fly, McAdoo dropped Frances throw on McAdoo, and grounder around long enough to let two runs count. Perry was shifted to the right, and Four runs so far in the one inning, Gardner singled to left scoring Evans and exit fields. Hammett tossed out the ball, and Brown doubled to right, putting Davy on third. Williams walked, filling the bags. Torrens walked, forcing in the second. When Soil White sent an S. O. S. call to Johnson, Singer tossed out Grant. The only run Cleveland got came in the inning and hitts and a walk it took to took. The second game looked like a Giants factory. The Brown led the Giants to a win. The Giants played by Poster's men started a rally, a rally it was -eight runs via hits and plays by the visitors.

Tom Henson allowed the Giants to hit, the first coming in the first frame when Singer singled over see-saw, when Carson was caught down below the sacks. The other safe blow was produced by Miles in the ninth. Francis followed him on the wing, and the Giants were labeled "two bases," but Jelly Gardner anothered it while on the wing, and the catch. Bobby Williams kicked Harris' easy ground around long enough to hit Miles score, preventing the Giants open the fireworks right off the reel. In their half of the game, Bobby Williams' larcher was safe on Perry's error. Brown scored both when he hit the fence, and Bobby Williams' larcher was safe on Perry's error.

A. U. and collegiate star. KENTUCKY BACKS BLACK GOLD TO WIN GREAT JUBILEE DERBY Churchill Downs, Ky., May 16—Kentucky believes she has the golden derby as good as won and nothing will be able to dissuade her before the running of the American turf championship. Yes-Kentucky, hook, line and sinker, is for Black Gold, the pride of Oklahoma, judging from the team's win in the back stretch here yesterday when Mrs. Hoots' super son of a former champion played victory in the featured derby trial. And what is more, Black Gold beat Utah in the featured derby trial, Utah in the featured derby trial, which was previously the first horse to ever lower the heights of Sarazen, 1922. Winning by 10 lengths in the mud and in the field, Black Gold made Wild Aster and the gold look like selling platers. But the most sensational derby trial that ever was witnessed here or elsewhere in the great race will either have to be shot from a gun or equipped with a rifle, with which Black Gold won 'tends to detract from the class of the field he defeated and from the stout, stubby good's bull, Wild Aster. It was just for the face that Black Gold won 'tends to detract from the turf had previously been. It was a great race and a ply of skill, but it could not have been on the ground. Rain, falling off and on throughout the early cardiac, we looked in the water and the post at the end of the chute. They didn't lose a minute and were off in Black Gold was slow to start and was apparently pocketed, with Wild Aster, through the first sixteenth. Then the slack black collar proved his great speed and heart of iron. He stepped Wild Aster like a shining arrow. Catching the Greentree cold midway up the back stretch, they ripped him out of the ground, where it appeared that Black Gold, running on the outside, would have falted right there, but not Black Gold. He raced a little wide at the expense of half a length. Once straightened out for home, the Holder came up his speed through the sticky, lumpy course was terrific and the daylight began to lengthen between. Mark well that Wild Aster is quite some colt himself. He was just unstoppable, charging speed and the Black Gold could have won by 20 lengths but he had so pleased. He ran so fast that it was three moments after the finish before the crowd thought of the team and a white shirt went up when the official "1:37 4+5" was hung up across the track. While the dewy weather be run and may prove to be a race for any man's horse, this correspondent has long been convinced that Blake was the best throughbred in the training on the American turf. When he was defeated as a 2-year-old, he started earlier than any of the other stars, and this was the reason that his trainer asked without once showing a sign of displeasure. He remained in training throughout the season, including the Louisiana derby at New Orleans, while most of the others were passing the off season in warm Orleans.

Black Gold beat a tough field over these eight furlongs yesterday with 119 pounds up. He can go just as well with the derby import of 125 pounds, but he can also specialize in any special kind of a trak for him. Any horse that runs a mile through yesterday's going in 1:37 4-5 is some thoroughbred. The other derby candidate that have won races here and in the East showed such splendid form as Black Gold. All he will have to do is run two furlongs farther than he can run in the race that try to beat him within the first mile are in danger of losing their race. All this is why Black Gold is "pike" to use the trak expression. Now we shall see. Presence in indication show a derby field. Of this tentative field the following in excellent derby fettle and in particular derby fettle: Alawood, Beau Butler, Bob Tall, Goncalou, King Gorin II, H and Nautical, Revenue Agent, Senator Transmute, Tundrale, Walt Killar. Among the selected probable starters the manatee Flenza, Modesk, Modest, and Garrard uncertainties. Johnny Lotus, in bringing in C. J. Ryan Apprehension, determined whether he will saddle later in the chasse, but has given assurance that the apprehension will Johnny Shaw, arriving with the stable of E. K. McLean of Teapot Mountain, in regard to the Colin colt, Modesk, which has met with fair success in Al Kirby, trainer for Jefferson Livingston, has little to say about startling the manatee, which has been somewhat disappointing to John Ward, owner of the Thunder-cold, Worthmor, winner of the Modesk, Big Blue and Sun Modesk, in which he beat such good ones at Modesk, Big Blue and Sun Modesk, in which the colt is not bred to go the route. The good of the good Modesk, Willey Counselor, Chicago derby candidate, has finally been explained. "It appears that Trafiner will match the colt a half mile on a heavy truck in 46 in preparation for Monday's Imilco, in which he did not start. Horsemen told themselves that this trial had apparently impaired the colt's form and that possibly it had incurred some physical disability, but not so, according to Jockey Mack Garner, who returned from Pimlico today, where he was to have ridden the Burton colt in the $50,000 Preakness. Garner explained that several days before, in the race Wise Sounseller took a listlike to his fodder and that medical attention was necessary in order that he could get his quota of sleep. The colt lost at least 25 pounds during this unfortunate attack of illness and, after being relieved, it was discerned he would be in no fit condition to start in such a grueling race as the Preakness. Benjamin Block, Jr., former Chicagoo, will be represented in the derby by Thorndale, one of the hardest campaigners among the upper class 3-year-olds. Block had originally intended the entry of Thorndale and Peter Maloney for the classic, but withdrew the latter when it appeared that he did not possess derby caliber. Thorndale, however, is a certain starter. --- THIRD ANNUAL TRACK GAMES AT HAMPTON INSTITUTE MAY 17 Hampton, Va.

Gardner was ushered in as a champion, the Rid Kid Champ for some reason was unable to go through with the match. While the weights were measured at 130 for the former and 130 for the latter, thought that the white lad had at least a dozen pounds on the Slowtown product, he pulled out of his corner in the initial round and showed Gardner all over the ring with right and left hand punches. The former puncher, who was the paw, and apparently the contest was not to last very long. However, Gardner took everything the white lad gave him, and while he made a pretty good light of it from the fourth session on he never recovered from the surprise in the first round, the white lad gave his final laugh. The semi-final furnished an interesting contest between little Wilbur Cohan and Mike Castle (white), a former champion of the land state. Cohan was pronounced the winner by the judges. He had a clear lead at the end after a well-fought battle. Castle put up stubborn resistance. Cohan over Cohan in the early rounds, but Muxie Haugh's protege wiped it up by his uphill battle. Castle weighed 120 and Cohan 115 pounds. The battle was as the decision, suited the patrons. THE MONARCHS The monarch ruled with iron hands The people scattered o'er his lands. While no one dared to pick a flaw, His simple will became the law; And all his subjects quaked with fear When rumor said he would appear.

The Thick Barons intend to trade it decidedly hot for some of the northern clubs. The Cubans don't seem to have hit their stride yet, but the man made out of the Browns will be seen.

Then three days' fast and the Indian club opens and other two-day stand: starting Decoration day. The Cubans will then move over to Detroit for four games.

Fortune started on the mound for Hampton, but was yanked in the first inning after yielding four hits, one base on balls and four runs. Hargrove took up the burden and with few exceptions pitched a brand of ball that would have won the game had he been properly supported. During his turn in the box he struck out 10 men. Armstead, however, was accorded better support in the pinches and backed up by the hitting of his team mates emerged the victor. in the first half of the opening chapter Peterburg started the fray home with the first tally on Epps single, while Epps trotted home with the second run on a wild pitch. Cowes walked and Allen singled, scoring Coward. Moses advanced and scored on another wild pitch. Harn scored on the last up the burden by fanning Walker. Brown doubled, but Coles popped up. Allen scored on a wild pitch. Harn scored on an Armstead, retarding the side. Virginia Normal got two more runs in the second frame, three in the sixth and two in the ninth, giving her the total of 14 runs and a seven run lead.

So-called skin diseases are caused by bacteria becoming infected in the tiny pores and glands of the skin because they can't get out. Unhealthy skin holds bacteria and causes infections when you continue to let this condition exist. For this reason, you need to help you any. You need what is known as Black and White Ointment, which is made of the skin, makes it active, so it naturally expels all the acid that throws off through the pores. Then pimples, blotches, "breaking out," creeps off. Black and White Ointment is economically prized in generous necklaces. The size of skin contains all the bacteria. All dealers have Black and White Soap, too, so you can keep your skin healthy and arms lovely and clear—Ady. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER PARTY —Photo by Cloud Studio.

It was well rendered and very enjoyable. "The Water Boy," arranged by Avery Robson, "Negro Concert" along with great feeling and rendered perfectly. Three other folk songs, "It's Me, O Lord," "Steal Away," and "Every Time I Feel of Spirit" were the most highly preferred members in the evening.

She illustrates her theory by relating the experience of young couple in the ideal operation, in the shape of ideal bliss that is so seldom encountered during these days of hurry, worry and divorce. The story is interesting; read it for yourselves: Young doctor, directly after graduation, opened an office in an ordinary neighborhood because besides prospects seemed better there than in a more expensive local. Besides, he figured. And there was a girl he wanted to marry. "Before they were married the girl would be in the morning to straighten out his office and give it an air of cheerfulness. She would work after work, with the same intention. "When the man was making barely enough money, they married quietly. They took a furnished room some distance away from the doctor's office." "The girl would come with him in the morning, and receive them as an doctor's assistant. During his office hours he takes an assistant. She replied as a girl would reply under such circumstances to her employer. They then the girl disappeared. To the patients inquiring for her labor, she married her assistant. By this time he could afford the service of another office attendant not till. In summer he old attendant was the doctor, had opened a small office, and now there working in a business for him. She was the assistant. People licked her look, and before long a practice was won in that neighborhood also. Of the five years the doctor and this girl, his wife, and saved sufficient money to scrap both offices to go to a house in a residential area, he expected to make his permanent work in his office as an assistant. But she was in and out of the alley during the day to see that the at- "who man today, after 10 years in the army, has two children. He has two children. Four sons. how she stood by him and worked with him and played the game of chess assistant when she was a child. "there is no more to the story except as it may serve as a moral to their deserts to be served them on a silver shatter, and in the first few years of married life, principles, it seems to be one of the needs of modern times for girls to realize if they must a home they must help make, they must help them to win a game, it does not follow that a girl is necessary in the office, but she must be in the office, and she must be in the office, location, creature, fed, undressed on candies and mastles, on with moral and false notions, with moral or adequate background."

St. College If you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash it with. Many soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much free alcali. This dries the scalp, make the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Mulsified coconut oil shampoo (which I pure and entirely greaseless), is much better than anything else can use for shampooing, as this cannot possibly injure the hair. Simply molsten your hair, with water and rub it in. Two or three tenspoonfuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleans the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excess oil. The hair dries quickly, and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silk-bright, fluffy, wavy, and easy to manage. You can get Mulsified coconut oil shampoo at any drug store. It is inexpensive, and a few ounces will last everyone in the family for months. JOYS OF MOTHERHOOD Often Prevented by Female Trouble Lydia E.Pinkham'sVegetable Compound brings Joy to Homes by Removing Cause of Trouble Dear Princess: You are rendering aid to so many people, old and young, that perhaps you can help me. I am a young man, so years of age. I've heard of a child in the park on the way he's a child, and they're very friends to church and giving them money to put in the collection. Please advise us to such. What does my handwriting show?—An Admirer of Your Column. I am quite the proper thing to do and yet I do not condemn it as entirely wrong. The church is the benefactor and I feel the young men are sincere in their intention, however, would be by the fact the letter for the girls to give their individual mite, without contribution from their male friends. Your penmanship is very good and denotes one of a positive and determined disposition, but kind, considerate and agreeable. Dear Princess: I have read your advice to others, now I am asking for help, I am a girl 15 years of age, and considered good looking. Now, Princess, I am engaged to be married to my son, I might say, "I am very really love him and he says he loves me but, Princess, when he tells me that he is coming to call on Monday, sometimes I don't see him for two weeks. What do you think about him? I will take your account. Tell me of my handwriting. I think he is totally unfit for you, to come bring his wife. One of the very worst things he can do is bring him alive. Sometimes it is an inborn weakness, but more often it is an acquired one, and more often the first sign that he is not dependable, is that she didn't. Of course there are many instances, but when such happen, it is generally easy to recognize the excuse woman either for that matter, continuation of promise or agreement, then it is unfortunate only making a fool of you, so get rid of him. Your penchant deserves a life, not a promise or agreement, which is so trusting, which will seriously interfere with success. You are afraid to advice for myself. I am 29 years of age and have been married for 20 years. We have four children. Now I want to marry me. She is 22 years wants to marry me. She is 22 years believe she will make an ideal wife. I have a good job and I make good money. If you have seen no wrong of your intended wife and have found all of her traits of character satisfactory, I see no reason for you to feel other than confident, as you do. You must, of course, think of the children in each case, should be forced to mother them. It would be well to explain all of this to her, so she will know what could happen in the future. You speak of having a good job and making good money. Learn if she is economical and has her great three hates instead of two out of a dollar. If you are convinced of her suitability for your wife, before marriage, it will save you another divorce case. Dear Princess: I am a law student 29 years old, and have only one year before I receive my degree. I wish I could find some good girl, who would make a hard working lawyer a good wife. I am very particular, I admit, but I really can be satisfied. Please help me.—C. D. G. Spring is here and in the spring a young man's fancy—"What's the use of you all? What is I'm going to say? Such a one as you want, is on earth she reads my column and will answer you. My Dear Princess: I am a widower 47 years old and the father of eight children, three of whom are grown. My baby girl is 9 years old. Four of these children are under my roof. I am engaged in the same�age for the 25 year of age, is a Seventh Dhy Adventist. I am a Methodist. Would you advise me to close the contract with this party? We differ largely in our religious beliefs; for instance, she opposed the cediment of Saturday, that she had her Sabbath day. I am a man who believes in good eats every day, having been spoiled by my first wife, who could prepare meals to suit a queen's taste. She had a home in the family's referescently temperament, dissimilarity in age and so on. I need someone in my home to mother my children and also to keen me from continually having in the railroad blues.—Lonesome and together. It does my heart good to hear you speak in such glowing praise of your first wife, and the fact that you do prompts me to draw a comparison between the two men and the two childrennitially held closely to your dance will be a failure as far as wifehood is concerned. I could never advise you to marry her when her religious conviction interferes with me, so already who is the only life of the same and his family should be of the same faith denominationally not only for the general harmonious "STOP SQUABBLING IS DYER'S ADVICE Brooklyn, N.Y. May 15—Speaking at a mass meeting held by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in the Concord, N.C., district, Le C. Dyer, of Yale, declared that the house of representatives for the United States Senate will start a billboard and stop everybody. Mr. Dyer warned his audience of that our country must protect itself and avoid petty squabbles if we are to make headway, and he condemned those members of the House of Representatives being done for the Race. In this Mr. Brooklyn, N.Y., — “I was working after I got married and the young lady who worked next to me asked me if I had any intentions of having a child. I told her I would be the happiest woman on earth if I could become a mother, but I always had terrible cramps, backaches and headaches. She then told me of a woman she knows who took Lydia E. Pinkhar: 's Vegetable Compound for the same troubles and it helped her greatly. I took about a half bottle and found that the following month I did not suffer any pain, so I kept on taking it. I have a wonderful baby boy six months old and he is as strong and fat as any one could wish a baby to be. I still take the Vegetable Compound regularly because I have looked fine all the time and felt fine and my mother told me that was the reason. I will be glad to have you publish my testimonial with my name and address.” — Mrs. EDWARD WERbeck, 1824 Greene Avenue, Brooklyn, N.Y. Free From Old Trouble Auburn, Maine. —I suffered with inward weakness for ten years and had doctored all this long time but my sister had told me my sister and she told me of Lydia E.

Contention on any vital subject will gradually loose the cords of love, and duty and the end will be a catastrophe. There is too little in common between you to find happiness in marriage. What benefit will she be in your children's life? Saturday has always been the child's day and the child should enjoy it to the fullest extent. You need someone, who is religious, but who can agree with you on the government of your home. If you marry this woman, you will put the railroad blues into execution. Dear Princess: I am seeking your advice on how to convince myself is trivial, but I am worried anyway. I have been married five years, and I feel I can do good girl, but I fell in love with her when I did not use the lip-ipstick and had a bad taste. I do not use the lip-ipstick and do both. I don't feel that it is making her bad, but I can be so different. I want to make a good husband. I influenced by her sister-in-law with a different taste.

I raised it if all concerned are satisfied, having her hair cut off, I believe she should not be of being a good wife, she see no reason for your wife to change her hair is naturally one of the few who crippled and bobbed hair and if you feel that upon her in this particular matter, I advise you to make sufficient investment in her, then make the contemplated change, loyal and faithful to a trust, but unforgiving and intolerant if forced to it. Dear princess; I am young man you are in law school before I receive my degree, a girl who could become a hard worker and need an intelligent and the world and need an intelligent and to success.

I dress plain. How can I get to it with my face? I know I look 10 years older than I am—Doris. Maybe you have heard it said that "Handsome is an handsome, does, and 'Beauty' is only skin deep." Well you have not, I have to tell you that looks are not the least consequence of any portion of the human make-up. A clean heart and mind, ability to make friends through mindfulness is unselfish. It is a good and equal-mindedness of things that really count, and me everything in any person's life. No physical defect is so hideous that it cannot be compared to children any more than the qualities. It is silly to be sensitive of your appearance. Make your personalities so radially attractive that your defects in feature are unnoticed. It can be done, for I know of many cases. Try it. Dyer was supported by the pastor of the church, the Rev. J. B. Adams, and by N. B. Dodson, who arose and made a speech from the floor, pledging the united support of Colored people to Mr. Dyer and the N. A. A. P.

That means that 88 out of every 100,000 women receive for the siments for which it is recommended are benefited by it.

BAD LUCK no earthly reason, so far as I can I luck should always keep followin- blessed thing that I do night or others tell it, deserves an O. K. k my derndest to prove that I'm as the next guy who lives here must do know it, must get must to know it, why I get then There's no earthly reason, so far as I can see. Why bad luck should always keep following me. Not one blessed thing that I do night or day. To hear others tell it, deserves an O. K. I'm doing my dernest to prove that I'm worth As much as the next guy who lives here on earth And if into each life some rain drops must fall, What I want to know is, why I get them all? THE INEVITABLE ALTHOUGH "moving day," the first of May, in Chicago has come and gone there are hundreds of families still in an unnettled condition for two reasons—the scarcity of flats and houses and the almost prohibitive rent asked for them—and the added like sheep in rooms secured from those who have a roof over their heads. In one flat of six rooms on one of our prominent boulevards some 18 people exist—not live. Privacy under such conditions is next to impossible, and therein lies the danger to the morals of the occupants. There is a difficult matter for those who have rooms to rent to discriminate between the respectable applicants and the ones whose reputations have become somewhat besmirched. The latter usually are willing and ready to pay higher rentals than the former can afford; the reason is obvious, and only too often it is a matter of dollars and cents rather than respectability that influences the land- MANY YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN, many married people and some older heads have started on the road that leads to degradation simply because they were daily thrown in contact with denizens of the underworld or their environs had a tendency to make them indifferent to decency or public opinion. This is not true, of course, in all cases where a number of people are in contact with the vast majority of them. The question arises. How can this condition be remedied? There is but one answer: Spread out. Go to the suburbs where land and houses are comparatively cheap. There are hundreds of acres of vacant lots just outside the city limits that can be purchased for a few hundred dollars. A few hundred dollars more will buy a ready-cut house. Haplap transportation is available to those who live most. IT IS TRUE that homes are within walking distance of State St. It is also true that the next door neighbor is not running a buffet flat. Self-playing planes, squeaky phonographs and bolstered singing and rough-house tactics in general have also been left behind. But the home is there in all that the name implies if it is your pleasure to make it so. Now is an opportune time to look up a desirable location—we repeat, in the suburbs—and if you are not in a position to pay all down, pay enough down. You are not in a position to pay all down, pay enough down. The near future you will own your home and will not have to keep your nose to the grindstone in order to fatten the purse of a grasping landlord. SPEED MANIACS IN THE ADVENT OF SUMMER of craze and thousands who know about driving an automobile are preyably adding materially to the already thoroughfares. To the great number drivers add drivers and the driver, and it can readily be seen to toll each year shockingly but no races a car at high speed throws up the air or the wires and children of other laws and regulations governing all other laws they are often blind or never be really effective unless consented by whole-hearted co-operation of the public, both motorists and pedestrians have undertaken preventively high standards demanded of applicants with the brutal will of the event of accident or misunderstanding have been as fortunate as an uncommon thing to see children start directly in the path of a swift driver. The driver, taken unawares, fails to avoid the inevitable. The blink in the eyes of the public, its circumstances were. So the brutal will of dead and historic battles, despite co-legal efforts, the automobile sees along to mechanical restrictions as speed. While the accidents on the road not so numerous as in the city, the year runs up into the thousands and "stepping on the gas" plays in the death drama. We hear peculiar business for the Not so. We must all know that will eventually get us all, but so allowed to live to enjoy the life WITH THE ADVENT OF SUMMER comes the motoring craze and thousands who know little or nothing about driving an automobile are purchasing cars, thereby adding materially to the already congested thoroughfares. To the great number of inexperienced drivers add the reckless driver and the intoxicated driver, and it can readily be seen why man drivers are so dangerous. A man who races a car at high speed through the city streets gambles with the future of his wife and children or the wives and children of other men. We have laws and regulations governing motoring, but like all other laws they are often broken, and they will never be really effective unless they are supplemented by whole-hearted co-operation on the part of the drivers. SOME CITIES have undertaken prevention of accidents by high standards demanded of applicants for licenses, along with forfeiture of the privilege of driving in the event of accident or misconduct. The results nowhere have been as fortunate as hoped for. It is not an uncommon thing to see children while at play dart directly in the path of a swiftly driven motor car. The driver, taken unaware, frantically upon him in the eye of a public, the blame rests upon him in the eye of a public, it matters not what the circumstances were. AND SO with an annual roll of dead and malmed that exceeds historic battles, despite coercive and constructive legal efforts, the automobile seems to be hurrying along to mechanical restrictions that will reduce its speed. While the accidents on the country are too numerous to count, the total for the year runs up into the thousands. Narrow roads and "stepping on the gas" we play the leading roles in the death drama. We hear people say: "Sunday accidents boost business for the undertakers." Not so. We must all die some day; the undercover will eventually get us all, but some of us will be allowed to live to enjoy the flowers on Monday. HITTING AT MEXICO WOULD SEEM that the policy of our office to handle Mexico with kid gloves is as much friction as possible between neighboring countries. While we be dormant always wielding a firm hand our rights or privileges are interfere power, we do not believe in the countries that are citing each other with harsh word and shell. AT PRESENT Mexico is free from so of any large proportion and the government which seems to meet the masses. Yet the political will of the throes of another revolution IF WOULD SEEM that the policy of our government is to handle Mexico with kid gloves and thus keep down as much friction as possible between the two neighboring countries. While we believe in our government always wielding a firm hand when any of our rights or privileges are interfered with by a foreign power, we do not believe in copying after the Old World countries that are constantly bombarding each other with harsh words, if not with.shot and shell. JUST AT PRESENT Mexico is free from internal strife of any large proportion and they have a form of government which seems to meet the approval of the masses. Yet the political wind might blow the other way tomorrow, and Mexico would be in the throes of another revolution. Were we to meddle in Mexico's home affairs, as some would gain nothing and lose much. But it is a difficult matter to maintain friendly relations when prejudiced and narrow-minded Americans of the type that howl loudest for the exclusion of the Japanese say editorially: "THE MEXICAN is as indigestible an immigrant as any that comes from Europe or Asia. There are Mexican settlements in the United States that are as old as this government and where the fourth and fifth generations are no more Americanized than the first one was 150 years ago. Any argument that would free from ill-mindled imitation from northeastern Europe — from anywhere else — would apply with equal force to Mexicans." WE COULD at this rate find some reason or other for excluding after a while the French, Germans, Irish, Poles, Greeks, Canadians, in fact all peoples who are now without our gates—just pull ourselves in a hole and pull the hole in afterward. Barnum said that there is a fool born every minute, and we heartily agree with him. The number of nationals that can come in under our present laws is extremely small and we need them to help develop our vast country. We are at peace with the world now; let us stay that way. AN ENGLISH FOOD EXPERT says the length of a man's life depends on what he eats. Over here it seems to depend on what he drinks. DISRESPECT FOR LAW JUDGE JAMES H. WILKERSON of the federal bench in a recent speech before the Bar Association of Indiana gave expression to sentiments which deserve and merit more than passing notice. Among other things he is reported to have declared: "It is now time that the lesson should be taught that he destroys respect for one law undermines respect for all laws. If this spirit becomes general the time is bound to come when those who call upon the law to guard their homes and families, to protect their lives and property, will call in vain." BUDGE JAMES H. WILKERSON of the fief in a recent speech before the Bar Assoc. Indiana gave expression to sentiments which he and merit more than passing notice. All our things he is reported to have declared, "I time that the lesson should be taught that destroys respect for one law undermines all laws. This spirit among those who call upon the guard their homes and families, to protect it and property, will call in vain." THIS IS SOUND DOCTRINE, but it is difficult to fill it into the minds of many of our so-called citizens. The principal cause for the age growth of the sentiment which tolerates law breaking is the growth of the documents' rights or state sovereignty, which was of contention that resulted in the eviction, and which was obtained to have been when the surrender took place at A. Fox. THIS DOCTRINE of states' rights had an exponent John C. Calhoun of South Carolina, claimed with much force and some degree consistency that if a state were a sovereign host to the right to obey or disobey, enforce it on any national or federal laws. The spirit endangered, which finds today the tendency to endorse, which was necessary, parties is the force of that sentiment which Judge Willekoley and forcibly pointed out and denounced. IN ACCORDANCE with the doctrine thus ratified is claimed by some now that it is the intent of any state to evade, violate, repudiate federal statute which may not be popular among the people which it is more desirous than this. These advocates that in states where fifteenth and seventh amendments may happily out of harmony with a majority of the Vesicles they are justified in the rule of the state is true of the eleighteenth and the states where it may happen to beular. IF THE LAW in these two instances can be tested the same reasoning can be applied to laws, which eventually would destroy our society. These advocates disorganize society. It of a state to suspend or disregard any constitutional provision, or statute for the enforcement, encourages and protects individual citizens the law in their own hands, for the rest under the doctrine of states' rights it is of the state and not of the federal government law violators so far as they relate to health and property. The federal government authorizes, according to this doctrine, to be its own citizens against domestic violence, which every citizen is supposed to owe allegiance to the national government. Undericulous doctrine we are afflicted with "Him Cullins, racial prescription and discrimination of lines and a growth of such organizations as Klux Klan, which teach and inculcate national prescription and religious intolerance, moral methods and other law-binding citizens cannot realize that the only effective way to remedy pointed out and complained of is to destroy from which they spring. THIS IS SOUND DOCTRINE, but it is difficult to instill it into the minds of many of our so-called law-abiding citizens. The principal cause for the apparent growth of the sentiment which tolerates and justifies law breaking is the growth of the doctrine of states' rights or state sovereignty, which was the bone of contention that resulted in the war of the Rebellion, and which was believed to have been terminated when the surrender took place at Appomattox. THIS DOCTRINE of states' rights had as its chief exponent John C. Calhoun of South Carolina, who claimed with much force and some degree of consistency that if a state were a sovereign body it had the right to obey or disobey, enforce or repudiate any national or federal laws. The states engendered, which finds today many states and defenders in all of our political ages, is the foundation pillar of that sentiment which Judge Wilkerson frequently and forely pointed out and condemned. IN ACCOUNDANCE with the doctrine thus referred to it is claimed by some now that it is the inherent right of any state to evade, violate, repudiate and disobey any section of the federal Constitution or any federal statute which may not be so effected. Nothing could be more destructive than this. It is claimed, for instance, by these advocates that in states where the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments may happen to be out of harmony with a majority of the white people, they are justified in repulating them, and that the same thing is true of the eighteenth amendment in states where it may happen to be un IF THE LAW in these two instances, can be thus treated the same reasoning can be applied to all other laws, which eventually would destroy our governmental system and disorganize society. The right of a state to suspend or disregard any constitutional provision, or statute for the enforcement thereof, encourages or protects individual citizens in their hands, for the reason that under the doctrine of states' rights it is the duty of the state and not of the federal government to punish law violators so far as they relate to life, liberty, health and property. IN OTHER WORDS, the federal government is without authority, according to this doctrine, to protect is own citizens against domestic violence, although even a few of them are not accorded amount although to the national government. Under this pernicious doctrine we are afflicted with "Him Crow" car lines, racial proscription and discrimination along other lines and a growth of such organizations as the Ku Klux Klan, which teach and inculcate not only racial proscription and religious intolerance, but criminal methods to put the same into effect. Judges Wilkerson and other law making officials are not offended, and a way to remedy the erythral out and complained of is to destroy the course from which they spring. A JUST VETO N VETOING the bill to tax the people to not of more than half a hundred millions for red pensions for veterans of previous wars' widows and orphans the president did believe is in harmony with the dominant part of the country. Every fair-minded person, a favor of having these deserving persons aided for at the expense of the public treaties the president has pointed out clearly in his book, "The Times is already a fact. He insists that he is unquestionably right—that is, what is led more than anything else is a material rule." The burden of taxation under which it laboring has been "in addition to additional actions are made for objects and purposes of necessary and uncalled for. It would be a selection upon the people of the United States aged, disabled and infirm among the defense, the government were neglected by their so far to protect which they gave the best year to lives.

He insists—and in this he is unquestionably right—that what is now needed more than anything else is a maternal education of taxation under which we are now laboring. THIS CANNOT BE DONE if additional appropriations are made for objects and purposes wholly unnecessary and uncalled for. It would be a serious reflection upon the people of the United States if the aged, disabled and infirm among the defenders of the government were neglected by their government, to protect which they gave the best years of their lives. But the additional pension chase contained in the bill which the president has authorized to a pension. What is true in this respect is also true of the pending legislation called the bonus. The bonus is all right and nothing more than should be done by the government if the same be confined and limited to those who were victims of disease, wounds or other misfortunes incident to their service which has wholly or partially impaired their ability to earn a living. IS UNJUST to the taxpayers of America to burden them with a heavy load of taxation to give a bonus to younn, healthy and able bodied men who are capable of supporting themselves and families merely because they spent a few months in the service of the government as soldiers. YOU TELL IT, MR. EDITOR HERE IS AN ORGANIZATION, nations bear, bearing the name "Superior Caucasian," which gives rise again to an old question: "What is superior Caucasian?" What do other races this term, anyway? "Caucasians, of course ourselves a superior race," says the editor of any News. "No Caucasian will dispute it is resented, naturally and justify, by other organization has a commendable motive—to scholarships young men and women—but it that makes them open to the charge." BRACE SUPERIORITY is not a thing to be told. Race egotism is offensive. Some other men produced superior persons. Perhaps the chosen with a different intent than the ones implies, but it is not a good name, though they be commendable. Race superiority prejudice are two allied things that show up BUT THERE'S THE RUB: if the human car would forget race, creed and color and member that we all came from a common as we are all traveling the same road, or at going to, and that the end will be the same for this, this would indeed be a glorious old war in. But since the beginning of time it has one constant "dog eat dog" affair, the string on the weaker, one race exploiting and most of us weaker, one realizing and most of us in hold or get a place that isn't a "Superior Caucasian" organization that or something else equally as objection what's the difference? THERE IS AN ORGANIZATION, national in scope, bearing the name "Superior Caucasians," which gives rise again to an old question: "What is a superior Caucasian?" What do other races think of this term, anyway? "Caucasians, of course, call themselves a superior race," says the editor of the Albany News. "No Caucasian will dispute it, but it is a superior race." The organization has a commandable motive—to aid by scholarships young men and women—but it is the name that makes them open to the charge of egotism. "RACE SUPERIORITY is not a thing to be talked about. Race egotism is offensive. Some other races have produced superior persons. Perhaps the name was chosen with a different intent than the one its name implies, but it is not a good name, though the object may be commendable. Race superiority and race justice are two allied things that should be办公室. BUT THERE'S THE RUB: if the human critters only would forget race, creed and color and just remember that we all came from a common stock; that we are all travelling the same road, or at least trying to, and that the end will be the same for all; that we are all living in the same place live in. But since the beginning of time it has been just one constant "dog eat dog" affair, the stronger preying on the weaker, one race exploiting another, until most of us have become resigned to keep up the battle in order to hold or ret a place in the sun. If it isn't a "Superior Caucasian" organization it is not a "Superior African" equally as objectionable. So what's the difference? A THIRD PARTY F PRESIDENT COOILIDGE should be the next June, and it is very likely he will be called radical element will form a third place LaFollette at their head as their shearer in the opinion of wisecaries in the poll. Here is the LaFollette platform in brief; by the economic and political power of monarchy of the navy's oil reserves; public overseeing the freight rates on agricultural products; of the use of injunctions in labor disputes; and compensation for the veterans; direct action and election of the president; revision of sailed trenty." THENES have never seriously lied with the political machinery of a democracy in America in the past, but the situation in 1924 is exceptionally critical and nobody can with certainty what will develop in the months. If, for instance, LaFollette at the third ticket should win enough electoral prevent a choice in the electoral college he 'IF PRESIDENT COOLIDGE should be nominated next June, and it is very likely he will be the so-called radical element will form a third party and place LaFollette at their head as their standard bearer in the opinion of wisecres in the political arena. The president will have to destroy the economic and political power of monopoly; recovery of the navy's oil reserves; public ownership of water power; public ownership of railroads; reduce freight rates on agricultural products; abolition of the use of injunctions in labor disputes; adjusted compensation for the veterans; direct nomination of the president; revision of the Versailles treaty." THIRD PARTIES have, never seriously interfered with the political machinery of a democratic government in America in the past, but the situation in 1824 is exceptionally critical and nobody can presume to ignore it. Six months, if, for instance, LaFollette at the head of a third ticket should win enough electoral votes to prevent a choice in the electoral college he would be in a position to dictate the choice of a president. He would thus occupy the same strategic position as the president, and would questionably, both parties must, reckon, with him. THE PUBLIC'S COMMON SENSE MARCUS GARVEY "BACK TO AFRICA" Editor's Mail ANSWERS "WHITE FRIEND." Providence, R. I. Dear Mr. Abbott: After perusing the article submitted by "A White Friend" in the May 3 issue of The Defender, I have the following comment to make—that he was a bit hypocritical in signing himself as he did. A man who thinks that Colored folks should occupy separate tables and compartments, as if the Negro was a sort of animal instead of a human being, is no friend of the Black race. As far as intermarriage is concerned, I would advise people to stick to their own kind; but if a Black man loves a white woman and she loves him, and the get married anybody she's. And furthermore, a Black man will not bother with a white woman if she does not give him encouragement. "A White Friend" is inclined to think that the Black man wants to mingle with the white man on terms of social equality and the like. This, however, is not true. All the Black man should feel like he extended to his white brother. Of course, if a white man does not want to associate with a Negro the Black man should not 'feel hurt, as every individual has his various likes and dislikes. The Negro is by far more of an American man than of the whites. The Kukri Klim takes the Government secrets would be safe in a Black man's hands, whereas you would not be so sure if a white man had 'them. In every war that this great and glorious republic has taken part in you will see that the Black man has done his share to the White man. What further proof can we give of the Black man's loyalty to America? I suppose a great many of your readers will think that the writer of this article is a Negro. Although I am a member of the white race, I think that the Black race has just as many intelligent people and as many geniuses as my own race. My slogan is "Great every worthy man must consideration, regardless of race, color, creed or nationality." The Great Emancipator, Abraham Lincoln, said, "All men are created equal," and every true American should keep those memorable words forever in his mind and treat all men equal. Yours truly, FRANK OZITER Editor, Chicago Defender; I was so very much impressed with the showing made by the Chicago Defender Newbys' band Sunday when the city turned out to welcome our returned cardinal that I cannot resist the temptation to hate and thank the organization for its form and organization. It was by mere chance that I went to 41st St. and Michigan Ave. on that occasion, but I was amply repaid for my trouble when I saw those happy boys marcheing in the street and those thousands of persons, both black and white, cheering as they did. I only want to add "Keep up the good work." LIGHTS AND SHADOWS LIGHTS AND SHADOWS It Won't Budge THE PUBLIC COMMON SENSE LIGHTS AND ON BEING PATRIOTIC [A patriot addresses his country on the patriotism of his people.] We reached the heights of pride with him exulting. Though there were tears and anger Obedient soldiers orders all obey! So when you call, my country, and command. They tear unfrightened quick into the fray. Though, when at peace, you pounce on them and stand. Though you blind fast their feet and chain them hand to hand! His brothers were being brutallized and brushed, When he was shattered by a British shell. Children being sold are knowing them mothers well. Born in chains, to live thus and to die; A system saturated with the hell Of lupine lust, wrong, toll and tryanny; All this he struck to save, when you sought liberty! When Jackson, with his back pressed to the wall, Sensed portents of defeat and foemen's heels. And in his consternation sent the call For these sons of the soil and cotton fields, They answered, singing to the cannon's peals! They never slackened pace, these souls, who alaved. But, darting in, though death around them reels. For broken vows, the hell to victory braved! And, Joyed with Jackson, though back to their masters waved!

And on the forst's high top the Union flag did float! Into the fray again!—for humane France, For Japan, England. You and Italy. Again forgetting their staggering suffurance. Of men wailing in a chaste democracy; The cattle car; the lack of liberty! Forgetting, though death rakes their paramets.

Man-wolverines in an unequal war Swoop down on them with curses, clubs and claws, With fangs and fury glutting many a maw! And hardened, cruel, you act/deaf to their cries of awe! —PIERRE GAILLARD. THE CURSE OF THE SOUTHERN BREEZES From the soothing whisper of the breeze Came a message of life serene; Through the sighing, crying of the trees. Letting my mind with sunbeams roam; Tried to interpret at any rate A message by the breezes borne. **weight.** And tried brain, care, to eradicate. From us by one continuous strain. Of and hearts did it mournfully sing. Bowed with burdens and sorrow: In its message, new hope did it bring. With the dawning of the morrow. Thus sayth the breeze 'neath a Southern sky. Southern sky.

WILBERFORCE WILLIAMS TALKS ON PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID, REMEDIES, HYGIENICS AND SANITATION Contributed by Dr. Roscoe C. Giles From time immemorial men have been pursuing that fleeting, transient state of well-being called health. As far back as the fifteenth, century Ponce de Leon, the Spanish, crossed an unchanted ocean, beached waves, waved beasts to sigh, health and the Fountain of Perpetual Youth in the everglades of Florida. Daring as was this effort, foolish as it was, it is not unique in the world's history. Even in this day and time there are many Ponce de Leon, the human being, to health is simple, founded upon a strict obedience to the laws of nature, which are as immutable and unchanging as the laws of the Medes and Persians. Men even now defile that temple, the humane, and unchanging them, and think that by taking baths and rubs for a few weeks at Hot Springs they can get rid of the accumulated effects of months of loss of sleep and of the deadly germs in their blood that are eating at their vitals. He who knows of the king, patentee, prince or a beggar, must pay the penalty. What, then, is this formula for health? It is simple, and yet these modern Ponce do Leons spend fortunes searching in the hidden recesses of mysticism, vanily endeavoring to discover the formula. Bankers visit the spas of Europe, go to North Carolina, go to others go to Mexico, Battle West Baden to regain their health and in the going pass by the goal, which in fact lies at their very doors. They remind one of the search of Sir Gallahad for the Holy Grail, which ended up in the beggar whom he spurned when he set out on his mission. They like unto Naaman, spilling off the hosts of Syria, who went to be cured of his leprosy. When the prophet told him to go and plunge in the waters of the Jordan seven times he became rexed. That was too simple. By A. L. JACKSON And as long as Sissie and Blake are prepared with the show we are prepared to predict that that whistling tune will be forthcoming before very long. At any rate as far as we are concerned we rise we rise the "Bamville" is worth while and deserves all the good things said about it. We have no doubt that had we seen the show earlier and realized how good looking that chorus was we would have joined the stage done by Sissie and Blake for introductions. Those girls are all right with us. THE commissioner of public welfare has called together a group of people to discuss what seems to us to be a very serious problem for us. This could end a edition of our schools which has given hundreds of children shifts has thrown hundreds of children in this city on the streets for four or five hours a day without supervision. Parents at work and short school hours do not help children very much. Something needs to be done about it and that right soon. We have seen dozens of boys in gangs travelling the streets for warfare and get into mischief. Riding trucks leads to thieving from them, and a boy's natural inclination to throw stones makes anybody liable to become his target, which means trouble all around. We think the South side, especially, needs more playgrounds and accessible recreation places, with competent men and women in charge of them. The city and the board of education can help these youngsters out of the juvenile court and the county jail. Their parents are up against the problem of making a living under conditions never faced by them before. They find that their children are lost to them and beyond their control. It is almost impossible in a great city for parents who work to keep up with half-grown boys or girls who have leisure time on their hands. In a poor country, study and training from all the social and clive agencies we have, and we are glad to see Miss McDowell giving her attention to it. That means we ought to get some results. WE had occasion to sit with a committee, a few days ago to discuss an approach to the problem of halting a disease endemic which seems to be giving the authorities concern. We were not impressed with the hysteria which seemed to prevail in the health department over this particular epidemic. Doubtless it is a serious state of affairs. But the conditions in which a large number of people seemed to prevail are serious, to our way of thinking. Leaky toilets and poorly ventilated, overcrowded flats which have not been cleaned since Washington crossed the Delaware are important items in any health problem. Dirty alleys and streets do not help any. A clean alley in some of our neighborhoods would astonish the folks who live there. They do not know what a city cleaner looks like, unless they happen to see one when they work. They do not work. The notion prevails that our health department has some of these things under its control. Vaccination may be all right, but we would like to see some other things tackled as well. We hope that the new citizens' committee will be able to get something started in this di- No Cases Are Diagnosed And No Prescriptions Given In These Weekly Articles It is necessary at times for a race to stop in its onward progress to take an inventory of its physical well-being.

It is equally necessary that the longevity or average length of life of the individuals of that race be such that will assure those members who have achieved distinction living the commonwealth the consummation of their ideals and to leave their achievements as a lasting legacy to posterity. As we look back at the depths from whence we have come we see all around us the stumps of mighty oaks that have fallen in the forests long before the appointed time, of those when by sheer power of intellect and an indomitable will they had just reached the period of their lives when they might have been of the most service to their race. As we call off the roster of our intimate jewels Paul Laurence Dunbar, John Taylor, Colonel Charles A. Young, Booker T. W. Bert Williams, George Walker, Johnny Dancy, Joe Wolcott, Joe Gans and a number of others, all talented in their respective professions in the world, that comes to our minds the melancholy indentation of the bard: "Lycidas is dead, dead ere his prime, Young Lycidas, and he hath not a peer." *Saint Mark said: "What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his soul?" In the light of our present day materialism he maraphrased: "What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his health?" INFORTUNATELY for us we were unable to witness a per- formance of Sissie and Blake's new show, "In Bamville," until they were about ready to leave Chicago. But even though we were late in getting a peek at the show that has set everybody talking. we enjoyed our time on the very much. We want to compliment the gentlemen who are responsible for the show on the way they have delivered the show business from the traditional school. we have buttoned hand level that has prevailed so A. B. A. L. Jackson has prevailed so long among musical comedy shows. It seems as though until now it has been impossible for a show produced by us to get away from the watermelon and chicken comedy. "Shuffle from it," was a long step away from it, but the long step out of grocery store scene spoiled the effect for us. We think the costuming helps in this new show. There is no particular reason why, a good looking chorus should be dressed in rags because they cause an unpleasant mood. Silk and plenty of color go with a good looking chorus. And we want to say a word for that Bamville chorus. As a rule it has seemed to us that managers in an effort to procure good singing voices and dangling ability have been unable to obtain chorus pieces; were of uniform size "seemed" beautiful and the same time "seemed" beautiful and they go to see the Follies or most any other musical extravaganza sure of seeing plenty of grace and beauty whether the chorus can sing or not. We are glad to see that Sissle and Blake are matching Flo Ziegfeld in glorifying the American girl. For this chorus for shapes to lookize to no chorus of similar size on the stare. White folk seem to think that there is some innate difference in the brand of humor and feature which a Colored show ought to offer. They seem unable to realize that we laugh at the same thinness which they laugh at. And naturally we appreciate the color we appreciate in our women all those things which go to make women beautiful for a race of people, namely, good features, good hair, shapely forms, feet and grace. It makes little difference about complexion because we are accustomed to variety along that line, and there are other people who must depend upon blonds for contrasts. We have all the in-the-weens. We heard a white man say that this show was doing more than all the interracial committees we could organize to give the world some idea of what our folks are like. Like Browning in his manner and bearing on the stage looked as good as Donald Brian ever looked. Lottie Gee and Valada Snow, especially the latter, have real personality. And George Cooper, was funny enough for anybody. The show is clean, the scenes are well-choreographed and as good as one has a right to expect, even though there does not seem to be a whistling tune like "Harr" which "Shuffle Along" brought to us. We have a firm belief that "Bamville" will take on Broadway. It has what 'Broadway' is used in to use comfort and beauty. (Continued Next Week) PUBLIC WELFARE HEALTH
