Many beautifully decorated boats and autos attracted the attention of the hundreds of thousands of bystanders who lined the entire street. The flat car was by great odds the most attractively decorated car in the line. Chairman George E. Taylor and his corps of enthusiastic boosters kept the crowd cheerful and inspiring "noise," numely "Come to Florida B. M. C. in 1936." Thursday the session only lasted a few minutes when adjournment was being held. Briard was rushed through rapidly to the point of election when one by one each officer was elected under the suspension of the rules by acclamation. It was it when the 22d biennial session was called to order by Grand Master E. H. Morris of Chicago. So completely pleased were the delegates with the stewardship of the court, it was it when the 22d biennial assistants during the past two years that not a single hint was heard about any change whatever. By the report of officials and commissioners the order is its zenith. The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows is today in the most successful state of its entire history. Numerically and financially the order is its zenith. The next biennial session, which will be held in September, 1936.

Death, the grim reaper, mowed down two men at the Hawthorne race track Sunday in the twenty-mile event of the afternoon's races of Chicago's Colored Automobile Racing association when Norbert Edward Wiley died a hero in trying to keep from killing an excited spectator who was one of a half dozen who broke through the police lines and ran across the track as 15,000 horrified spectators looked on.
Fred Shaw, the spectator, was instantly killed and Wiley died at 2:30 Monday morning.
Wiley could have hit the man and killed him and came out with only slight injury but his natural instinct after having driven taxicabs through Chicago's streets caused him to make a slight tug at the wheel. The car, coming down the stretch at 72 miles an hour, according to the timers, skidded as he jammed on the brakes.
The victim was carried on the radiator 40 feet and dropped under the front left wheel of the car, causing it to leave the ground. Wiley was thrown in the air about 25 feet and after a full two seconds he fell clear of the wreckage. He was placed in an ambulance and rushed to Provident hospital. The body of Shaw was taken to the Cicero morgue. Wiley's left side was crushed from his waist to his skull.
Among the drivers who were injured, the most serious was Sky Banks, who on his forty-eighth lap received an ugly wound in the forehead when the steering knuckle of his Rajo Ford racing car which was number six, broke, flew back and hit him in the face on the first turn, the blood from the wound blinding him and causing him to lose control of the car which leaped the fence on the inside rail, turned turtle, pinning Banks under it. He was pulled out and rushed to Provident hospital.
Hugh Bailey of Muncie, Ind., and George Adams, driving the Silver Cab company's entry cars, Nos. 8 and 9, respectively, were coming down the track almost abreast of Wiley's car when the latter struck him. Salley, driving the company, managed to clear the living radiator hood which was knocked off and fell near the middle of the track. Adams had to swerve over to keep from hitting Bailey. The latter continued in the race, but Adams finished the lap and pulled over to the fence and quit. It had unnerved him. Willam Bottoms, driving a Vogue Special, carving his car up for 50 miles on the road, wrings, shot around the track at a good clip Saturday afternoon in the workout. The car skidded coming out of the backstretch on the turn, posts on the outside rail, spectators rushed to Bottoms' assistance only to be surprised that Chicago's sportman and one of the promoters of the race was only slightly injured. The crowd settled back to normaly after Wiley's machine had been demolished. A few left the track but the majority hung on. The public field was always empty, for forgot the other, and one car overtake the other a mighty shout would go up.
In the 50-mile race, William Carren, driving car No. 27, Sam George's car, was the first automobile concern, took an early lead and won easily. Carson, a Chicago boy, a member of the headquarters company of the famous Eighth regiment and the mainstay of the chauffeur for George Beck and was to

Ferry, a plain clothes officer of the Raleigh police force, that the boy could not be down at that no, he had been in trouble before.

OUR WOMEN NO LONGER NEED SHUDDER WHEN THEY THINK OF MIDDLE AGE
Remarkable Discovery That One Dreaded and Unseen Enemy Is Cause of at Least Ninety Per Cent of Our Women's Pains and Suffering from So-called "Female Trouble" Gives Chemists Key to Secrets of a Middle Age Full of Vitality and Youthful Buoyancy for Our Women.
Women Now Depend on St. Joseph's G.F.P. To Restore Their Vitality
Most of our women dread the time when they must pass through that miraculous transformation known as the "Change of Life," because they believe they cannot escape a certain amount of pain and suffering at this time and that they will be "old" in every sense of the word after it is over.
"This is a mistaken idea," says a well known authority on woman's health. "Nature intends for all our women to have a sufficient supply of energy and nerve force to carry them through the 'change of life' so that the functions of their generative organs gradually diminish and finally stop without causing them the least pain or discomfort, and without making any difference in their looks or feelings which can be observed by their nearest and dearest friends or even their husbands.
"In many instances our women go into this period unprepared and the unusual drain on their system caused by the many important changes taking place in their bodies at this time weakens them to such an extent that they easily become a victim of Catarrh, that dreaded malady which is always hovering over our women and girls, waiting for an opportunity to attack them when they are in a weakened condition.
"It is now positively known that those painful and distressing troubles so common among our women at this period that for years people thought were caused by the 'change' are, in nine cases out of ten, the outward manifestations that Catarrh has gotten its terrible grip on woman's most important organs and is wasting away flesh, muscle and nerve force faster than the food taken into the system can build it up.
"Unlike many other ills, which are commonly supposed to 'work them selfs out of the system', Catarr, who continues to grow and spread causing, its unfortunate victim unlodge agony until the proper steps are taken to overcome and reapply it, but continues to readily see it is so many of our women really become 'old' in every sense of the word after the change. It is because health and nerve force is being stolen away by this terrible disease."
Thousands of our women in all parts of the country are now preparing themselves to be strong, robust, bodies with an abundance of vitality and energy through the consistent use of the phenomenal medicine known as acupuncture. We are not the others who were already suffering from Catarrh of the Female Organs when they entered into this great transformation, but we are known and exhausted condition that they easily fell a vicious to this disease are now finding that this wonderful medicine, G. F. P., gives us the courage to bargaining troubles, such as headaches, backaches, dizziness, nervousness, fainting pain, hot and cold flashes, flooding, and that terrible pain, flooding, and which are so common at this time.
And friends and, relatives cannot believe it possible that these happy women with beaming, smiling faces and so full of life and energy and joy, are buoyant and vitality are going through that period, which before the advent of St. Joseph's G. F. P. with its almost miraculous power to overcome and stamp out the evil forces so in many instances, as one of horror and dread and the end of youth and its pleasures.
If your druggist hasn't got St. Joseph's G. F. P. send $1.00 and $25 extra to cover postage charges to the Hermitage, Memphis, Tenn., for a bottle.

"For several years I dreaded the time when I would arrive at the 'Change of Life,'" says Mrs. Sallie Grier, the attractive widow of our group, who lives at 1810 Alley H, Birmingham, Ala. "But now that I am at this period I haven't the least pain or discomfort and it is all due to wonderful St. Joseph's G. F. P.
"When I started using this great medicine I was in an awful condition. I had been suffering from Leucorrhea for more than five years and was so weak and nervous I was almost helpless. My sides and stomach hurt me like the toothache and my feet would swell up so big I couldn't get a shoe on.
"I had tried all sorts of medicines and treatments, but couldn't get any relief and as I was at the 'change,' I was almost desperate. Then I started using G. F. P., and before I had finished the first bottle the swelling in my feet had all gone and I didn't have any pain at all in my sides and stomach. In fact, I felt so much better in every way that I kept right on using this medicine. I am now on my third bottle. I think I have entirely rid myself of Leucorrhea as the discharge has all stopped. I eat and sleep like a school girl and have the life and 'pep' I had when I was a young woman in my early twenties." Many of our women have suffered so long from so-called
"female trouble" and have tried to many things which promised relief from their pain and suffering, only to be disappointed, that they have almost given up hopes of ever being well and strong again. These women watch the years go by, which bring them nearer to that miraculous transformation known as "change of life" with a mixture of terror and apprehension. They know of the pain and suffering they will be called on to bear at this time, because of the experiences of other women who have entered this period weakened and exhausted from so-called "female trouble."
There is no longer any need of these women worrying how with their exhausted and pain-racked bodies they are going to be able to do their work. Period. Bound of our women, like Mrs. Grier, are finding it a mighty easy matter to overcome their aches and pains and build up a strong, rugged body with an abundance of strength through the consistent use of G. F. P. And these women are now passing through this critical period without the least pain or discomfort.
The secret of the almost miraculous power of St. Joseph's A. P. to ease the burden of health to health and strength and help them through this critical period is its well known ability to stamp out Catarrh, which is now known to be the cause of at least ninety per cent of those painful troubles peculiar to women, such as back pain, back sides, back and limbs, irregularity, loss of appetite, dizziness, nausea, fainting spells, sleepiness/and thatible run-down and workout feeling.

KANSAS CITY GIVEN NEXT CONVENTION
With the departure of delegates from Chicago for their homes throughout the United States, Africa, Central and South America and the West Indies, Monday night, the 44th annual conventation of the National Baptist convention, and said by many to have been the greatest in its existence, passed into history. Sessions were held at the Eighth Regiment armory from Wednesday, Sept. 10, to Monday, Sept. 15, inclusive, with the exception of the Friday meeting, which was convened at the Friendship Baptist church because of the Defense day demonstration beginning on Friday.

Friday night the convention relaxed from its arduous work and packed the armory for a musical and educational exhibition, charged, the delegates crowded into the large building long before the program started and remained throughout a lengthy but interesting evening. One of the interest groups was John Arthur Johnson, former heavyweight purlitzer of the world, who kept the huge crowd at high interest for almost half an hour. Johnson began his career in tattoo before he entered the fighting world and closed by referring to some of his activities since his retirement. He was a great assugete that along with his other task of attending to his own business, he had devoted some of his time to studying the Holy Bible, and that, although he did not show from the hosecets, he had attired to practice what he had learned.
"You have yet to hear Jack Johnson speak all of anyone," he declared, having nothing good to say of a person, a person of another species. Dr. A. A. Graham, president of the Lott-Carey convention, who came from Washington, where his group was meeting, to adduce a speech for the organization, throng interested with his narration of foreign mission activity carried on by his organization and prophesied a great year for the two organization at the Wednesday afternoon session. Dr. Graham's talk was received with much enthusiastic applause. Miss Mary E. Jones of Chicago was the evening and created an enjoyable impression with her singing. The Church Extension board and the Benefit board reported at the Saturday sessions. Sunday morning and evening, the church services and Sunday afternoon was a foreign mission mass meeting. All committees reported Monday and unfinished business was disposed of early convention adjourned in the early evening to meet next year in Kansas City, Mo.

CAL PLACED CHILD LABOR LAW IN MASS.
Has Always Stood Up For the Worker
When Secretary of Labor James D. Davis said, in addressing the Pennsylvania Federation of Labor: "I will place the record of Calvin Coolidge on labor against that of any冷酷男 who has ever occupied the office of chair of the governorship of any state," he gave voice to a sentiment which will stand before the closest scrutiny of all Americans, and particularly of the industry producing America's industrial and agricultural output, which is sought by the whole world.
It will be remembered that Governor Coolidge of the Massachusetts commonwealth, was more than any one else, responsible for enactment by that state of the first state legislation which prevents the employment of women and any one week. Despite the war which was waged by various Massachusetts employers against this legislation, Governor Coolidge stop firm in employment of women and children workers, saying that he would rather be known as the governor who signed the 48-hour bill for women and children than to be known as the governor during the police
For the Worker
Even before that time, as a member of the Massachusetts legislature, Calvin Coolidge had been active in pressing for legislation beneficial to working people, including electric cars and around rural yards was finally provided by legislation which was adopted during Governor Coolidge's incumbency. Legislation empowering the State Insurance commission and doing business under the Workmen's Compensation act to deposit sufficient cash with the state treasurer to meet emergency obligations and to protect workers and their dependents was finally adopted under Governor Coolidge's administration. A bill providing for an annual vacation for state laborers, workmen and mechanics was passed during Governor Coolidge's earlier be-rejected for several years.
It is already more than apparent, since his elevation to the position of chief executive of the United States, the most powerful of his keen appreciation for the welfare of workers. Rising, as most Republican presidents have, from the ranks of America's everyday folks, he has become a leader, and, realizing that those human masses form the bone and sinew of a great nation, intends to see that the compensation of good government is the return for their labor and the love of man.
The 8,053,225 Negro workers who, during the present administration, have become more permanently allied with the labor force, before, should jacquire at the prospect of President Coolidge's reelection. These workers, with their ever increasing solidarity, their full recognition of the importance of inclusion into the high trades and crafts of industry, their highly favorable impression upon American employers, and their great contribution to the well-being of their feel comforted and secure in their progress and their prospects. A better understanding than ever before exists between the labor groups and the labor groups aside the side prejudices and are advancing together as the human parts and parcels of one country, whose record is a gloomy one. Under the guise of the trained guidance of President Coolidge the labor groups, and, in fact, all other groups, will become permanent and hard working complements of each efficiency and perfection as their goals.

PROSPERITY DUE TO REPUBLICAN IDEAS
PROSPERITY DUE TO REPUBLICAN IDEAS
When Henry Ford, who employs a large number of Colored wage earners, said: "I am satisfied that the country is fairly safe with Coolidge, and I feel, too, that the country is perfectly safe with him," he gave expression to the thought that is in the minds of many who are hoping for a continuance of national prosperity. With mines, factories and mills running at capacity production, with labor generally employed, with labor presently to make extensions that were retarded on account of the war, there appears to be a settled conviction that this is no time to abandon our national economic theories that have not had the acid test. If full recovery in industrial and financial affairs is desired and if the horrors of unemployment and the misdeeds of the government must function to the satisfaction of those whose investments of capital in business enterprises make it possible for industrial and financial ac
With 512 out of every 1,000 Colored mates, 10 years of age and over, gainfully employed, and with 359 in each group of 1,000 Colored females, 10 years of age and over, fully employed, our economic status shows a remarkable improvement, in all sections of the country, over the prevailing condition of but a few million of our home buying activities of the Irace. In the organization of banking institutions; in the extensions of our insurance companies; in the increase in the number of our retiring students; in the number of our training of churches; in the mechanical appearance and increased circulation of our newspapers, and in the exceptionally large number of students attending the various colleges and
In the announcement of his political attitude, Mr. Ford said: "Mr. Coolidge has shown in these months that should please his countrymen. I think they all feel that Mr. Coolidge means to do right. And when a man means to do right, so far as he can, he is a proud member of the easy for him to find the way to do right." In these words Mr. Ford gave an expert opinion of a remarkably successful business man, an engineer who thinks deeply if we hope for the protection of our citizenship and our further advancement in business and industry.

Sept. 19—Ignoring protests of Race members of the New Castle county Republican committee, white members at a special meeting recently struck from the official ballot the name of Jefferson S.

The Gland That Causes Men to Get Up at Night
The gland that causes getting up at night is known as the prostate and is a notorious trouble maker. It is estimated that 65 out of every 100 women who age, have prostate disease, which, if unchecked, often leads to a serious operation. The prostate surrounds the neck of the bladder like a washbasin, and it comes inflamed by poisons which the kidneys filter out of the blood, the irritation spreads to the prostate. As the gland swells, it closes the neck of the bladder making urination difficult in the back, head and legs.

GOVERNMENT FARM BUREAU AIDS WORKERS
Rural Districts Given Help by Agents
In agriculture as in industry, many changes are taking place which directly affect the economic status of our group. With more than two million people directly engaged in agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry, it is important that the full facilities of the United States department of agriculture function for their benefit as well as for that of other tillers of the soil. When one recalls that all foodstuffs are derived from the earth and that engaged in agricultural pursuits there are 271 Negroes in every group of 1,000 per cent of the total population and over, as compared with only 108 among the whites, one can easily realize the importance to them of a cultural information through the medium of the department of agriculture.
Since the appointment to the head of that great department, the farm demonstration work, particularly of the states relations service, has been improved and extended to harmonize with the construction project of the farm demonstration work of the farm demonstration agents is far more efficient, as is also that of the women who go from farm to farm, and it is largely due to this governmental connection that Colorez

farmers and their wives and children are becoming better farmers, better satisfied and more prosperous with the setting of every sun. Doing business with more than two billion dollars, they are contributing to the wealth of the nation, and in the opinion of the secretary of state, they are entitled to every consideration.
No longer do the Colored framers of West Virginia complain that Nothing is being done among them by the state relations service, although there are 17 agents, nine male and eight female, or that the agents are the state political machine, and the wives of the Colored farmers receive absolutely no benefits from the female agents on the subject of the state relations service has ceased to come from Arkansas to the effect that "The agents hug the railroads and do not reach the Negro farmers from Oklahoma that "The work of the states relations service is a joke when considered in connection with service among Negro farmers in the political machine and does not function agriculturally for the benefit of this racial group." From North Carolina we hear no further report in-hand type who will not even report peonage cases in the state, and whose chief activity is holding occupations in the farm industry; nor do warmars write as did this one from Arkansas: "if never met a farm demonstrator outside of a city, and thousands of Negro farmers of a farmers' bulletin."
All of this has changed under a Republican administration, and plans are now in the process of formation of a new farm corporation by the Colored farm owners in the agricultural credits system operating through local co-operative marketing associations and through national organizations. The treatment of Colored farmers in the neighborhood has been, in too many instances, a just cause of complaint, the belief being rather general that the Colored farm owners will soon be oil farmers, rather than for a particular group. It is safe to predict that the cry of discrimination among the Colored farm owners will soon be inefficiency and prejudice.

New York.—Quite the breccies, zip皚皚, prancing, dancing entertainment. New York has seen in many years its first "the chocolating" or "the larcade" management of Sissie and Blake's newest musical comedy offering "The Chocolate" Dandes.
Each performance given at the Colonial theater sees a new dance creation, a new vocal introduction, or a unique original and ludicrous scene or situation introduced.
With its exciting derby scene in which three thoroughbred racing equines participate, the bright, witty reparation, furnished in the look by the Sissie and Leverk's new ballet, stulting, tumful melodies of Elubie Blake and the bewitching, fast-stepping, electrifying chorus of brunette beautifuls—not forgetting the two and 12. The better picture of the show is to form one of the most pleasing and fascinating diversions of the season. Besides the star author-composers, Sissie and Blake, the most important company of funsters includes Johnny's Hudgins and Lew Payton, comedians extrordinary: Lottie Gee, the well-known primary drama Van Stella, the first-time comedicine Joseph Sander, Elizabeth Welsh, Amanda Randolph, Irving H. Browning, Russell Smith, J. Marde Brown, Inc. Clough, Fred, John, and a new show of Amity, and H. Ann, L. Randall, Curtis Carpentier, George Jones, Jr., the Four Harmony Kings, W. H.

Colored man and woman, who sing and dance, made a considerable hit when reviewed, co-starring the discursive of the act is the speed with which it moves and the diversified enchantment it's one of those offerings which hit a lively pace right away and keep it up ever between the numbers and the minimum of bows taken. The opening dance of considerable merit is a double version of "Me Cover Up With the Sunshine of Virginia," in Gold and topping with an eccentric dance. This gives way to a spectacle by the girl of the ballet, the balance of the routine consists of "Ivy" and "California, Here I Come," done in dressing the close back.

THE BATTLE OF NO-MAN'S LAND
All day the conflict raged, fierce and hot.
So warlord was lone to yield;
With charge for charge and shot for shot.
They fought over that bitter field.
No quarter was asked nor none they
At close of that hard fought day.
None lived who fought in that battle.
The captains who led the fray.
The dead lay strewn the field about.
Until there was none to slay.
No groans were there, nor no vetor's
and no blood dyed red the clay.
The bullets they used were molested
dough.
The shirannel was crumbs of bread;
The soldiers were hungry and know.
And the soldiers were wood and lead.
And one captain's face was scarred
across.
And one had a blackened eye.
The ones were red from cranberry
sauce.
And juice from blackberry pie.
The fight was done, and at close of day
These heroes found no disgrace.
The fight was done in food embrace.
Nor quarrel must mar their armorlet; no har to their terms of peace: For Sir kiss Bud and then Bud kiss Site, and thus did the conflict cease.
The fond mother kissed the angel face. As man in their slumber smiled. As man might enter that sacred place Without the heart of a child. — S. T. Whitney.

PETER H.
At the close of the sensational run of the Shuffle Along show, Platt paid us a very excellent spirits but showed the strain of the long run. He had saved a large amount of the money he hotel at Medfield, Mass. *Alias*; for the earthly plans of men, Platt died a large number of the theaters in which he was forced to play that he might earn a salary. Many of the theaters in winter the orchestra plays in most theaters are insufficiently heated. The stage comes from the basement and portions of the stage. If the sage is cold and the orchestra is full of force the draft that is created when the curtain is raised. Managers have too little thought for theaters. It is customary to speak well of the dead, but in this case the fine served. Platt was our friend. He was wont to speak of himself as a member of his brother. No finer man was ever in our employ. He was soher, conscientious, and gave his best services at all times.
When death severs the fragile strand of life which separate us from one we know but shocked. It causes one to pause and consider the uncertainty of life. Life is a gift from God. If we can do the good we can. All the ways we can to all the people we can. If we do this there is nothing we can do. If we do the door that separates us from eternity we can look God squarely in the face and say, here is the life. Thou know, we are the life. Thou knew; sorrowly I await Your judgment. For, after all, life is but—
A little time for hating,
A little time for laughing,
A little time for laughter,
A longer time for laughter,
A longer time for hereafter,
And then a long, long sleep,

Ajax—No doubt there has been a time in your life that you, too, lost an opportunity and realized too late what a dance you were for letting it "slip." Now if you would like to hear the whys and wherefores of an occasion of this kind told in sweet song accompanied by music that will cause you to sway the while, get record No. 1705 and listen to Mamie Smith sob it like she never sobbed before. The title of this one is "Lost Opportunity Blues" and when you have soaked up all you can hear of this one flop it and get an earfull of "Good Time Ball," by the same Mamie, and you will get another thrill long to remembered. They're really warm and no fosh.
BILLY IN
Billy Wintref of Wintref and Brown, members of the "From Dilee to Broadway Great Northern theater, was in upon us Tuesday. Billy confessed that he has been told he remembers calling the O. K. and handed a bunch of O. K. letters that would fill a year's since the O. R. I. D. Man and Billy had chatted over old times. He told Billy that Man, the bank not The R. I. Man, will invite him an invitation to call again.

Show Makes Albanyites Sit Up
and Take Notice
Albany, N. Y.—"Shuffle Along," the only play on the American stage directed and produced by Colored Boys and the week's engagement at the Capitol theater last evening and inaugurated the fall and winter season at that venue with a snap and dash that only live actors can give to their work. The dances were all lively and snappy and they were given with a zest that left nothing to be desired. We viewed the Times-Union. There were also some mighty good singers in the contingent, and the tiny thread of a story was just enough to the musical numbers moving at a fast pace. Gertrude Sanders, a peppy dancer, and her syriac stepped operers, opened the show and delighted Capitol nuttler Billy Simons, who while she was followed by Alma Mae Daniels and Normon Astwood in the charming song, "Love Will Flow," by Billy Simons and the chorus in "Bandanna Dawn." proved one of the musical hits of the show, while a male quartet stood out as a high light with their old-times numbers the baritone song, "Old Black Joe."
Willard Hillard and his "Honeysuckle Time" was a welcome addition to the song program, while the Mine Old About Harry of Ama Mine De Mine De Mine chanted added ginger to the production. Other song hits were: "Gypsy Blues," by Joe Loomis, Anna Mane Daniels and Gertrude Saunders: "Singe Me to Sleep," by Norman Mine De Mine De Mine Vamped by a Brownskin," by Billy Mills, and "Orental Blues," by Walter Hillard. Best among the dancers were Bobby Shields, who stepped quick and snappy, and Kathryn Jarvis, who put an acrobatic dance over who

The show has been elaborately costumed and makes a very fine appearance, and will prove a welcome three hours' entertainment for any audience.
There will be matinees Wednesday and Saturday afternoons.
"STEPPIN' HIGH"
Los Angeles — "Stepin' High" High, a company of 65 red-hot artists, is all about the music. Los Angeles Record, a white daily, Read what this paper had to say of this fine group which opened on Sept. 9, PhilHARMONIC — "Stepin' High" High, a musical revue in two acts and 12 colorful pieces, a company of 65 colored syncopators. Stepin' high! High, fast and frozely they were at the PhilHarmonic too.
were at the Phinharmonic, too.
There are darktown revenues, and then there were the most significant returns, but "Steppin" High. Darktown revenues, but "Steppin" in the form of the bar and above the snappiest, cleanst and most sparklingly refreshing of any Los Angeles has so far witnessed.
It had every one of the prerequisites of a first class, high powered musical resource, were always a chariot of the usual quality, nearly all of whom could have done justice to a solo act. There was Hazel Meyers, whose rather raucous voice harmonized perfectly with her character portrayal, and who struck the rhythmical keynote for the whole show. There were the most natural facts, especially Harry Fiddler in some breath-taking impersonations. The dancing of Eddie Anderson, Corine Anderson and Lawrence Ford as "Three Black Acces" had in it the primeval spirit of syncomation, elemental, abandoned and whole hearted.
And when there is Strawberry Russeled and Dike Thomas. Their humor is unforced, easy and inherently spontaneous.
The dance acts, the chorus, the features, the management and the nature of the show combine to make it one of the most help becoming enthusiastic over
O. R. T. D. MAN EAST
Gen. Antonio Langston, E. R. D. S. (Exalted Ruler Dramatic Section) prior to Wednesday, Sept. 10, was much composed and seemingly getting on fine, but need of a vacation and the fact that our own Harry Willis had been booked to chastiso and eliminate one Signor Luis Firno on the next day, suddenly took root in his mind, and then it happened. The O. R. T. D. man, Jr., was handed a flock of instructions, a gang of orders and a stack of good-bys as long as a B. & O. coal train and the gates at the station were crashed as never before and enough train was grabbed to connect Chicago with Paris, but N. Y. was the first stop.
The chief will remain East for a few days and then head West, coming in via Montreal (and we have a hunch why this town). Buffalo, Nagrara Falls and Detroit, landing back at the desk about the 20th inst.

Seymour and Jeanette received the honors Sunbury Local followers of things theatrical will admit that Seymour has everything when it comes to theatre, and some laughable conversation and the dancing of these two clever entertainers in the high street.

RECTOR'S A HIT
New York—Grace and Eddie Rector, that clever pair are featured with a big review at the Cafe Alaban at 4th Street, and a little review at evening.

Moss and Frye, heavyweight lighthouse setters, are the ones who will take the lead over the Keith circuit. They are looking linen in the rocking chair on their rocks on their heels and toes like any other bank president. They are spoofing, on yes.

record according to recent letters on the subject.
Word has been sent out cancelling the bookings of nearly a score of Colored acts over a circuit that has long been a test of the new book tests, because house managers and hotel people would rather decline every Negro act than take the trouble to notice that the other part of the team included to in fact most of them's Colored acts look up from these boys and their conduct with precisely the same degree of contempt as do others. Jines's book was not as much as to be for this unmerited cancellation is especially incensed at the team that has been so lacking in self-respect as to violent liquefies, a public sentiment to be to practice the most flagrant sort of disorderly conduct.
The proper protection of the right to live and earn a livelihood in their pro-slavery and the most unpaid services of the Colored performers must be investigated before they can get bookings, all because a few morons decline to recognize the most simple, professional personal things.
Managers, please believe that there are few worthless Negroes such as the type who have been responsible for their disclosure of publicتشخیص, worth for these. Instead, get rid of the rotters by declining to give them work. There are but few of them as compared with the great group of self-protective workers who form their their your consideration. Don't indict a whole Race for a few bad ones.
BUSBY'S MINSTRELS
'St. Joe engagement very nice. Heldem out first half of week at the Tootle theater. S. R. O. for five shows, and Tootle has some capacity. The entire company was royalty entertained during the week. Many parties at the New Way. Oh, that peacock. Jefferson City was a dandy three-day engagement. Business fine. Our ladies were the very first Colored ladies to ever step on the Jefferson stage. Company orchestra was engaged at the Park dance pavilion for a big dance. Tommy Gates, Harry Nay. Lawrence Nay, Wm. R. Moore, Herbert Whitfield, Art Meadows and Julius Butcher were admitted to the local lodge of Elks. They will never forget it. Their antlers started to grow once. Those exchanged visits with the members of the Wallace Hagenbach circus here in Mexico. Landy time. Johnny Mitchell had to close and enter the hospital for eye treatment. Sure hated to leave him behind. Business great. Making house records mighty high for others to follow.—Dock Gardner.

COAST DOPE
COAST DOPE
By BILLY MAXEY,
Los Angeles.
Dear General Tony: After a silence of a few months away, I was told to be on a few months away here. Nothing has happened so really worth it. Now, we are here.
Nothing has happened so really good.
To see the writer while here, "so as to cause" the writer to be "interest" hisself to tell the truth about what he does not do with the doings of the other big companies back East and of the great success they are making and I've waited patiently to get an opportunity to get back to the same sort that should out here.
At last my chance has come and so great was it that I'm going to read and write about it both. That one great has been done, and I'm going to be a big musical revue called "Steppin' High" at the Philharmonic auditorium, and readers it was an opening as far as a crowd was concerned, for the audition, and the hard-capacity of the album, was jammed to overflow and not even standing room was available. Then it was an opening as far as the show was concerned, for the presentation of the new album.
After the final curtain uttering words that make performers feel mighty good, Miss Hazel Meyers, who heads the cast, is a record artist of who means ability. In a class by herself. A little woman with a big round voice plus a million dollar personality causes the cast's most severe critics to only be in the heart of the world.
Much credit must be given to one, the rewarded laps in taking a bunch of honest to goodness "green girls" in this movie, and rewarding them in taking a bunch of honest to goodness "green girls" in this movie. To see these girls work one has the idea that they have been doomed to a tough job but Thurston Briggs accomplished it. The little wonder too dancer, is one of the stellar attractions with *Stepin' High* and *Sweetie Belle* and *The Three Black Aces*. There are the Three Black Aces, the rencore Ford committee, the trio, just red hot hooters, that's all, and the talk of Strawberry Russell and Dick Thomas are a pair of laugh getters that really enjoy laughter during their comedy blues. Miss Leonida Simmons, the petite Miss Marvel Drew, a newcomer in this movie, stopped all proceedings. "Keep it up little girl, your Hula dancing will make
Little Glennie Cherseman is another little newcomer with everything that goes to the making of the little "Rida Overton Walker" of the Pacific coast. It was not a small work to do with a work was up to the high standard, but I want to get this in the mails to you. I want to say that Billy Pierson is the producer of this wonder show. "Stepin' High," and under his coaching, which came to me, he was a firm line to have been has brought out this show that has caused many thousands of people and twelve city newspapers to acclaim it as the greatest show that has ever been seen on this coast.
The spoon is a music layer of "Steppin' High" were written and arranged by the famous Spikes Brothers. The numbers they have in this wonder show are positive hits. The feature song, "Steppin' High", is played for the oversea and the oath of the good friend Harry Fiddler, who with his wonderful act went over to the usual big noise. I am living here in this city and just see by a business card just what I'd do, but my Business continues to be good, thanks.
Well, general. I will say good-bye for this time with a promise that from now on you will hear from me every week when I am in spare me some space.
- Professional yours, Billy.

THE STANDARD
Philadelphia, Pa.—John T. Gibson, owner-manager of the Standard theater, has large crowds and big receipts can be considered an Indication. A big variety of bills is offering for this week and the theater is responding to best known talent procurable. Virginia Liston and her partner in Blues and Rock has many encounters at each point. Gulport and Brown, who need no introduction to the theatergoers, are going to Casting Dunbars, Carter and Clark and Sandy Burns and his famous group of versatile artists are winning much of the star offering. "Shadows of Shining Star."
O. R. T. D. CALLERS
The Roll Top Desk Man, Jr., has developed a wicked right hook since the early 1980s. He has the many callers at the desk. Lella Mitchell, just in from Louisville, KY, looking like four squares per day and has a large collection of spoiledheeled in and save us the round and round. Billy Farrell of Farrell and Hatch breezed in doing a Beau Brum. He has been the rest period in jumped Frankie Jaxon, the little singing and dancing couple. He has broad ax. Frank is doing dates in and around the burg with success, and Billy says he will let us in on his access in the near future, as did Lella.
FID LATE BUT HITS
Fat De Fid, or Tenshee Harry Fiddler, made success out of what seemed to be a rank failure, on the night he was to have opened with "Steppin' High," the latest coast riot, when after a tangle up in his trip (caused, no doubt, by overweight) threw him late. Getting to the theater at 7 o'clock, old Fid had to do a wing and curtain peephole rehearsal. But Harry's superior stage craft and polished manner was brought into play and from the time the curtain rose until the final drop everywhere he was seen spreading his stuff as "John Chinaman," the house was begging for more. You just can't beat ability, even when it's too fat.
GEORGE PLAT DEAD

Sunday's Sillas Green and Huntington Minstrels met. The artists had quite a time when few minutes they spent together. Some of the Huntington boys spent Sunday in Greenwood as guests of the Sillas Green company. Those that remained were "Daddy Green, Normal Eunice, Brigham, Quak Tunnel, Norwell, L. Lees and George Quak, the owner of the manager. Mr. Quin, complimented Mr. Collier, the owner of the Slas Green show, on the fine accommodations for the artists with the show and wanted to know what kind of cook we had with the show as everyone set up so fat. Another visitor was Willie Hobbs, an old member of the Slas Green show who has been sick in Greenwood for quite a while, but is rapidly gaining his health. I am quite busy staging a new show for the Alabama-Georgia and Florida territory. So far it looks good. New people are expected on the show, keeping the old show up to the standard and working on the new show is little more than a job.

Hope that this condition will be remedied, and if there should be any problems with your good work in the management. Trusting that everything will all right in the future and that we will continue to work with you, Sela-Fioto Circus, Zack Terrell, manager.

Dear Tony: Every now and then one overlocks some news that happens in Cleveland. Some of the boys are in the Harrison Hall. Mr. Hall is a lass player in Cleveland. The boys wish him much success. Before the troop left Detroit, Mr. Hall was a backstage and said hello. Mannie Campbell also was entertained by Campbell. Naturally I had to be invited to big chicken dinner. Also Mrs. Pannell of Detroit. Fort Wayne, Ind. was our next stop out of Detroit. The happenings was below par. By the time this letter goes to press there will be a Georgia. Next issue will set a right happenings. I will be told folks, as there were a number of wives called on the Georgia with pleasure—also saw her better half. (We won't say whether it was with a trooper, which she accepted, comedians, has the appearance of a millionaire—nail-suit in fact, every increase in wealth was left on an I. O. U. Mr. Harvey of the Harvey Hall happy by paying in full I. O. U. from last season in these pling times of
We met an old Indianapolis boy here in Fort Wayne, doing fine. Tom Quarrell is his name. But Tommy, like until Adam, grew tired of Ionesomeness in his garden and asked for something, and got it. Today Mrs. Quarrell is the host of Quarrell's household. Jimmy Elliott and a few others have been hearing a jazz act, as we hear the Ford saxophone groaning to the accompaniment of the Elleston banjo daily—some of it's music and some of it is everything else but that. Elliott Scott, Chicago tenor, is about to offer a new number, "Old Folks at Home." Scott can sing, and the number should be a hit. New Aide, who is the head of the "Only a Rose," the local papers praised J. S. Reeves's singing of "Silver Threads" to the highest. The new route cards just came out, but you can't get them on credit; it's cash and carry. So if you have a friend who stalls you that he don't know who he is, be sure, it is the only one to be able to sing. Willis Gauze has signed to go abroad, so he closed with the Georgias at Detroit. The Georgias and Manager Hockwald wish him much success. As Gauze was all there is to make a gentleman, we miss him. My new song will soon be ready: "Somebody Went in My Smokehouse and Took My Meat Aways."

Friend Tony: Toni. I am here a long delay. I consider the fact that you have no time for any correspondence equally as valuable, so I write only when I have some worth while facts. I am equally as valuable, so I write Louis to join the "Fast Steppers" and feature with them this season over the Columbia Wheel.

We have four big shows in town this week. Drake and Walker at the Douglas. Tack Jackson and Company in three other and company at the Lincoln, and a big stock show at the Star. So, Tony, you see Baltimore will be lit up with show folks this week, with a good show at each theater. The wife and I will be here for the next week or so. Mall will reach us at 1003 Argyle Ave., Baltimore, Md.—Yours truly, Billy Willis.
Dear Sir: Just a line to let you know what we are doing and that we will be at the same address for the next few weeks.

McLane and LaRlees are in a large scale (the "The Hole"s and the Mistress," go over for a good return, and the comedy of the male member, doing comedy female, went well, as did the slaging of Miss McLane, who is a singer of ability. Irvin Jones, doing a stuttering, single, featured some very totaler and rarity and was always to a good hand. La Rue and La Rue in a comedy offering. "The Employment Office," simply made them laugh till it hurt. Elvira Johnson in her own win-some way puts over her number to the taste of the king and scores heaviest with her two time to Time.

DOC DOES IT
Dear Tony: Having been some time since I have written you, I take this opportunity to inquire after yours and the family's health. The show is now heading toward Mississippi. Say, Tony, Sept. 2, while we were in Russellville, Ky., there was an odd occurrence on the show, and I take the responsibility upon myself to tell the profession about it. You know yourself, it is very often that a man with a big heart, a frank and open disposition is very likely to be criticized by some people for anything he does that will help the profession and unlift the Race. And in this case Dr. Coy Herndon (hoop roller, holding a doctor of chiropractic degree), did something that cannot go without acknowledgment.
Returning from parade Tuesday Eileen bright completely. Arriving at the car Hernodin immediately instructed him. Some time later some one summoned an eye some mediene. During the night it was right and Dr. Hernoden was awakened and gave him another adjustment, and him another adjustment and five minutes feet. And this morning he is able to see as good as he ever did. He was obligatory of writing this, for I fear that Coy would profess, J. C. Davis.
CULLEN'S MINSTRELS
RUBIN AND CHERRY SHOWS
In South Dakota we rolled up in a small, small amount of the state fair. I was pitched tents to play the state fair. To look at this town one would think it was a time to come to the board. It was going to death and the hoard was against the minstrels, as there had never been one of our shows to play a fair. I was very excited to be the extreme one way or the other, and it was. For after our first show on Monday, I was going to play the first show and have rung the old register for top money all the week. Lew Rose is the only one with his mighty midget show that has a new show. It was amusing to the bunch to see the whole Midway fighting to overcome the challenges. The show is the only one that is while Mr. Cullen was going on and paying no attention to them, but packing them in at a very performance. I was all over. I could not find one fault — that is that some of our cliffs played too much on the stage. The time that I was all about. If we could see ourselves as others see us sometimes we would stop and consider. I hope next time we will be the other time to see the other will act good for the time being, and remember that is the way some of our stars go away from the change before the end of the year. After a good time of their work. After Sioux City this week we make a 356-mile jump into the city. The first time I was in the Georgia state fair. This week felt like winter and everybody had to do down and get out. It was such a change that it felt like zero weather. It made a lot of the fellows run out of the ground. It was the first time I had to go around the grounds is, "Have your Defenders come," which will show the world that the bunch is wild over the world. Worlds. Best wishes to all—We'd Steward, Reporter.

BETTER SHOWS
Chattanooga, Tenn. — According to the league, the A. circuit, who recently returned from New York, there is a movement afoot to show and new policies have been outlawed that believes this to be one of the most successful seasons ever experienced by the team. The plan is to elevate the standard to the highest levels of awards and acts that have drawing power. The Lafayette Players will again be faced with two companies, both the property of the larger theaters on the circuit, thereby making possible a marked increase in the number of awards and acts that have drawing power. The following units will also be in line: Hooten and Hooten, Stokes company, the Whitman Sisters, Smith, Clara Smith, Sara Martin, Ida Irving, C. Miller and M. "Hits" from Liza are already on the time and the league has contracted that while in New York Mr. Starr closed contracts and acts and companies are in nowhere all the show they have been presented in. The A. circuit is out to give the players a tour of the circuit with the memory of the players that is great many of the theaters over the circuit have been renovated during the summer, and the league will appreciate with interest.

CHURCH SERVICES
A frank discussion of present day problems of Christianity and people.
By REV. DR. DUNCAN C. MILNER (Associate Minister of Ravenwood Presbyterian Church)
There are churches where persons could attend the services and if blind would not be able to tell that they were in a Colored church. The fine music, the hearty congregation, is the prospلمation and the services of the reading of the Scriptures, the prayers and the sermon would be of so high a character that comparison might be favorably made by the best of the churches. Neither is there a lack of warmth and sincerity. There is dignity without dullness. Every such service depends upon an efficient minister who is responsible for the performance of the successful carrying out. Such a minister must be educated. It may not be always that he has been to college, but he must have had opportunities and surroundings to be ready to do his work in the better ways.
Have," sung thousands entirely familiar to them it was lined out in the way and the singing of the sermon was so useful as to make them with the unders remedy this a church with a good stock of but the preacher can of the hymns and fall books.
The preaching in to is a hash of words which of study or preparation misuse of Scripture are real application to needs of the people.

In many of the Colored churches the services never begin at the time of the congregation, the pointed hour, the worker in the store or factory is expected to be at the man observes office hours, but too many churches make no note of time. In how many cases a meeting is scheduled until 4, and people will struggle in until the close. If ministers begin their services promptly this evil might be lessened and the people trained to better things. States have the gift of song and what are known as the "spirituals," many of the ministers are counted as the choice folk lore of America. James Weldon Johnson, recently sale of the spirituals: the faith and hope, the most precious and the most wonderful contribution to art of America—the world." Just at this time there are Colored singers making great reputations both in this country and in many churches. The singing is not an attractive feature of the services but the leader and sometimes sung in the most dreary and mournful manner. The writer attended a church old old hymn "A Charge to Keep I

Have," sung thousands of times and entirely familiar to the people-yet always a way and the singing was anything but joyful or sung with "the spirit of this book," understanding this to understandly supplied with a good stock of hymn books, but the preacher continued to line the hymns and failed to use the books.
The preaching in too many cases is a hash of words with no evidence of the spiritual needs of the people. Too often the preacher work upon the emotions of the people, sometimes by fearful pictures of the people, aim is to excite a demonstration.
The seasons of so-called revival, when persons under the power of the church perform, are sometimes kept up to so late an hour that in settled performance, are sometimes called upon to suppress them as disorderly performances. Such meetings, however, are not confined to the South, but in the South tourists attend services in Colored churches and are surprised to find a meeting with an audience in the performance and giant demonstrations. Too often, however, the preacher thinks he must be in a performance to fulfill the expectations of the visitors and also with the hope to get a larger college. In a recent number of The Chicago Defender is a picture of a baptism on the lake front, and a "Sunday Circus" in Lake Michigan" and also styled a "religious water carnival." The newspaper says never disgraced themselves by staging a Sunday circus on the lake front. and argues the primitive form of religious conduct.
If space permitted there might be made a criticism of the large place taken in so many services by efforts to raise money nearly always for local causes. For them collection and appeals for money for the large part of the service.

SEEK FUNDS FOR THE MONTGOMERY GIRLS' SCHOOL
Rosenwald Again Offers to Help Replace Buildings Destroyed by Fire
Thirty-eight years ago two young women left their northern homes and moved to our Race through helping young girls. The Montgomery Montgomery, Ala., as a result, for many years with a degree of twelve teachers. The course of instruction includes the study of the social sciences through the first two years of junior high school. Bible study and other courses, cooking, housekeeping, simple nursing, weary walking, child canning, sewing and women desiring to learn the trade.
Community work is carried on through the skid and agreed, circulating library, etc. Most of the graduates of the school are placed of responsibility as teachers, supervisors, having had their foundation in study-learning. In business they are dressmakers, nurses, social services operators, attendants in offices, and operators, attendants in offices, and carers for their own homes and children. A large number of the graduates is living in Chicago, Detroit and Cleveland. It should be of interest to young students in such a department which is opening at the school this fall. A training class in occupational therapy with nineteen years experience. Through learning these crafts will make them be able to secure positions as teachers and helpers for crippled, etc.
About a year ago this school, together with the ground, a great loss and hindrance to the work which could not stop with the ground. A great loss and hindrance to gain money to rebuild. Friends North and South were and within seven months James Alexander of Montreal building in which the girls were reassembled. The rebuilding of the two schools the contractor and the furnishings of the school made a total cost of $44,000. Hence there in $3,000 yet to be paid. An appeal goes to all readers of the DKD to help the girls to take a share in this new building for the benefit of the girls in the years

She then told me of a woman she knows who took Lyda E. Pinkham's vegetable Compound. The same woman took Lyda E. Pinkham's I took about a half bottle and found that the following month I did not suffer any pain, so I kept on taking it.

ZIONISTS HOLD BIG GATHERING IN NORFOLK; VA
MUSIC
BY MAUDE ROBERTS GEORGE
Edmund Jackson, celebrated pianist and an associate teacher of the Royal College of Music, recently and was heartily received by the musicians. As far as we are concerned, the piano was the only instrument to receive this distinction. A, Turner's Harmony Trio succeeded Turner's Harmony Trio, and the success of the trio indicated that their coming season. B, Salle F. Turner's voice has been mentioned in this column before, but upon this occasion Turner's piano was presented her capabilities, as she was feared in solo and trio numbers. She has a great high soprano voice of unusual quality and smoothness is most satisfying. In her cupup a conspicuous place in the music world, a Williams, pianist and tenor, is an earnest student of music and his accompaniment is excellent. His piano was very capable, Mr. Williams' voice is a lyric tenor and his performance is thoroughly enjoyed by the audience.
Sarah B. Ozella, reader, was most successful in her numbers. The group of 1000 was going to be the most popular volume of the year, be remembered by those who heard them. Miss Ozella's costume and appearance are deserving of special praise and her interpretations were vivable. In 1984 the volume of the highest standard of dramati cart. A. V. Turner, baritone, has a range that is very wide and ossesses a voice, is more than 10 times the low cost lister. His voice has flexibility and the audience was most enthusiastic in their applause.
Elliot, Nelson, violinist, is a young�ోపాత్మ్య సమాధి, and his rendition of "Scene do Hallet" by Derbiot showed brilliance as well as ability in interpretation. He should make a few name for himself in the model's world.
The program closed with the trio from Faust, rendered by Mrs Turner and Messrs. Williams, and Turner in costume. This was given with drastic interpretation and was stung indeed.
The choral class of Olivet, Baptist church, under direction of Thea. S. B. E. in the barrel in concert. P.P. at Olivet. This promises to be an excellent program. Hardy B. Woodfolk, tenor and his concert company have returned from the same year in 1904. The new group is such a high-country. The person is as follows: Mme. De Witt Smith, epuprolog; Helen Walner, contralor; Frank Hill, basso; H. B. K. De Witt Smith, editor, and Miss Mabe Clark, accompanying
The Treble Cef choir, under direction of J. Wesley, Jones, was presented in a concert of the women of the military in National Baptist Convention. Ebenzzer Baptist church, The Treble Cieubl was composed of 75 ladies and their numbers were rendered as many as 100. The director of the creed upon their director, Mr. Jones is particularly gifted in his ability to get excellent results in training, and the group of singers.
Time has been a long time. The soprano and Miss Irene Howard, coronist, are well known artists locally and their reunions upon this occasion as solos of the whether of many. They were enthusiastically received.
Mahel Sanford Lewis, B.M., pianist, and Eema Hammett, organist, were also who were so well known as the number 5. Sati, and Dett. The numbers were excellently rendered and highly appreciated by the audience.
The Gue Hurst of Kansas City, director of music for the women's auxiliary, rendered a spiritual accompanied by E마 Hammett and so appealing was the sentiment of the number 5 over the other older members, given away to their feelings and shouted. Mrs Hurst handles her voice well and sang some pianlesimo passages that were thrilling. Her is a wonderful gift.
The duet sung by Mrs. J. Weather, soprano and William Powell, tenor, accompanied by the唱者 who were so enthusiastically received by the audience and they rendered an encore. Their voices harmonize well and they are well successful in their interpretation.
The Ehnezer male quartet was most
evident of working earnestly together.
They were recalled by the audience and
deserved the appreciation shown them.

Dear Princess: I have been reading you to you for advice. I have been going with a man for eight years and he is very kind and when he is drinking he is very cross and flery. He wants to marry me and we will marry him, but he very disappointing in coming to see me. Do you think he would make a good admirer has two of the very worst faults that a person can possess advice you to treat him friendly, and ease away from him, but his ability to make a good husband and both of his allies helps. I do not tell you not to marry him if you want him, but I do not mistake of your life if you do.
Dear Princess: I have often found myself now in a situation to you for counsel, I am a man of 30 and have been married for 40 years. I am your wife and I can not get along. She is so unreasonable jealous you will not be on my side. I think she listens to some advice her setting on. She seems to want to judge my present behavior by what I have done. I have been squarer than a man could be. Tell me about my handwriting:—F. Insane or unreasonable jealousy is the nature that the world has ever produced. Under the strain of such a condition as insane, she describes your infidelity and listens to others in preference to you, then it is vengeance. Vengeance vince her. It has often been said that an will mind conceived for others may cause this is true, so I advise you to ignore her. She is bringing on herself. When you find she is of the same opinion, you will ship dena strong will power, but slowing to extreme.
Dear Princess: I read your advice to so often and now I am asking advice. I work hard. I have always wanted to work hard. I have always wanted to band to help me buy a lot. We had a very nice house built and payments are worked enough to pay anything on the place in seven months before. He says he is working and he is working. I can pay for the home, it the same as I do, without even trying to pay for it. I have not had a have no children and my husband is not even kind to me at times, don't think about it? I know my nennan-mann, what does it denote? Worried Wife.
Your husband is a consumer, but his wife is a worker. He is the porter of the old adage, "He who won't work can eat." You must have known the importance of buying the home, and there are some matters not what it may mean in the future. Any man should be proud to own a house, and to labor on it, and when he does not he is not a real man—and when he has his marriage dissolved.

and then he won't try, he is past words, I advise you to have the place made yours, and pay for it, then it is worth it. I don't want you to ever please with him. I am sure he is taking advantage of your good knowledge, patience, endurance and tolerance.
**Dear Princess:** I have read your wonderful advice to others, so I am coming to you for help. I am a marrye and have been married it years. I have no children. My husband is a good man and he will not want me to have any pleasure. I do not want me to have any pleasure. I am before also marries. He will never go any place with me, and he drinks, and has him. I am issued with clothes and a home. It is not affectionate. I can do plain sewing and with him or go for myself. I don't feel that I want another husband.—Women
Your husband is all wrong about a woman having all of her pelsaure before marriage. If such was true I am very sure there would be few marriages. A woman's chances for pleasure are greater after she is still the best of her life before because she has the protection and love of the man who has chosen her from all the rest, and she can engage in various social and economic lines that the laws of convention barred from her as a maid. It has concocted this story in an only way to keep him focusing his duty. I do not matter how many changes of attire a woman has, her heart is the same old heart, and if it is heavy from neglect and worry she can never find pleasure in pretty clothing and luxuries. A home that depends in everything but, and bound by it, is still never so a place. You have your own choice to make. If you want love and affection and be has not given it to you in 14 years, there is little chance of him doing so now.
Dear Princess: I am a young man
27. I have never been married and I have become so disgusted with girls that I don't think I ever want to marry. A woman who is a young woman who is dissatisfied
I do not ensure you for feeling as you do not knowing what experiences you may have had that caused you to decide so, still, I believe in marriage for every normal person, and I believe, also, that the percent of remains since I was a positive they are that marriage is a failure. There are good girls and always will be and the fact that you have not met them is indeed regrettable. Don't let a few cause you to lose confidence in the entire sex. Keep on going with good people and you will meet a good girl who will know and talk about them that you were now and fallous when you decided no woman was good enough for you.
Dear Princess: I would like to correspond with a good girl of 20 to 25 who wants to know a man of good habits and fair education.—Mr. X.
I guess you will have no trouble in finding a girl who wants such a man as you are. I have a number of letters desiring correspondents, from men and women and their finders, and many are extremely creditable. I will be pleased to give them out on request.

HARRY WILLS IS EASY WINNER OVER LUIS ANGEL FIRPO
BROWN PANTHER WINS EVERY ROUND IN HIS ENCOUNTER WITH THE BIG ARGENTINE BATTLER
PART I—PAGE
HARRY
BROWN PANTHER
ROUND IN HIS EN
THE BIG ARG
By WILLIAM WHITE
Boyle's Thirty Aces, Jersey City, Sept. 11.—Harry Wills, the "Brown Panther," formerly of Los Angeles, Luis Pirpo, the "Wild Bull of the lamps" from the Argentine, South America, here tonight before a crowd of twenty and seventy thousand persons, that came from all parts of the country to witness Pirpo, the "Wild Bull of the lamps" 217 and Pirpo 224½ pounds.
The contest, scheduled for twelve rounds, went the limit, while twelve rounds came the fiasco with Wills having a clear advantage in each session. The only thrill the shiny candle caused a fierce drive intended for his opponent's jaw. A straight right to the jaw put the Wild Bull in the grip. From the second round until the final gong, the affair became just a one-sided contest with Harry doing what little fighting he did with Pirpo's continual holding tactics.
From many angles the fight was a one-sided contest with Wills for this as he tried hard enough to make the affair spectacular, for most any ordinary fan will understand. Pirpo's clinging tactics, which were continual after his trip to the resin, caused the fight to look worse than it did.
The fact that Firpo employed this method to earn his end of the purse, to take the ring, and why shouldn't he emerge the victor by beating Luís to n pulp in the ring, was in the ring to win. Before the fight he made no particular statement as to how he would succeed, and without a doubt and in very easy fashion. Willis was never in danger. He got few to the head, but he always took off man who was sure of himself. On the other hand, Firpo lacked all deed and he bequealed out joun when Harry-roughed him. He landed a hard joke to Firpo's stomach, and you could 26 feet from the ring.
Fans Expected Knockout
With all, conservativeness we can state that 90 per cent of the fans expected a knockout, either one way or two, but the other one, now is always a low bloodthirty, and whether a contest goes a round or not, they always seem to be satisfied if they can leave a fight after having seen the same thing as the other one out on the canvas for the usual period of the 100. Such was the case at Boyle's tonight. The fact that it didn't occur sent home each of us, and it was with a different version of the affair.
Of course the boys who chanced a few dollars on the outcomes were the loudness of the lenders, and their analysis of "no-decision" contests, and for this reason thousands were let on a knock-out—vice versa—without any, suringly attached to the outset—and the same thing as the same. Wills by both races on the round-limit proposition, ranging from three to ten.
Had it been a close affair, the prohibitions of the better's would have felt better. But thousands are under the impression that Harry could have turned the trick, but for some reason, he's a little more difficult than he's the protection himself from Firpo's wicked right or whether he was under instructions from Mullins and Jeff Clark to play the game so early as he's never been to be known. The fact of the� mains, however, that Firpo's right never reached flush on Harry's jaw which many persons are under the pressings of the same thing. It is the help of Will himself claims that he did his best, but on account of Luis hugging him all the time the best he could do was to beat him down with body
The following is a part of his statement as told to the New York World reporter after the fight:
I nearly had him out in the second, I won every round with ease, and had the Bull not held all the way. I would have knocked him out sure. You can make a man fight when he won. He "k-y-ied" all the way from body punishment.
"I am sure, had the fight been 15 rounds, as they have in New York, I would have stopped him. He sure would never have gone the distance had he not clinched like a wrestler. I don't think he's very game, because he yells when hurt. I get a few of his rings are broken. It was just a workout for me, but guess every one will say I easily proved his master. Where was Luis' terrible right? He dropped Dempsey, but not me. Bring on Dempsey. The many angles of the fight will be argued for many a day to come."
Wills Took No Chances
To the writer's mind Harry fought the fight that meant the most to him. He was cool and collected after the going sounded starting them on their way. During the usual ceremonies pre

Fans Pay $471,000 to See Wills-Firpo Bout
Spectators to the number of 48,571 paid $471,000 to see the heavyweight bout between Harry Wills and Luis Angelo Firgo at Boyle's Thirty Acres last Thursday. The net receipts, according to Ter Rickard's auditors, were $24,000, of which Firgo said to have drawn $150,000 as his 37½ per cent and Wills $150,000 as his 22½ per cent of receipts. It is said that 12,000 more persons got into the enclosure for various reasons, running the total attendance to 60,000.
ceding the start he showed signs of nervousness. Most fighters assume the same attitude. But there is the ceremonies over over the became his usual self. The knockdown in the second stanza convinced him he was the Wild Bull's master, and he played the part of the wildmen. He was the only Harry should have stopped him, but as it was he won as he pleased. As far as thrills are concerned, he is the only one who is the only one he clawed the Wild Bull in the second. Several fans dwelled on the pressumption that Firgo furnished the only other thrill when he shook off that wicked punch and stayed the limit, although he took a heating that has never been assimilated by a student.
many a day.
Wills' Left
So many folks have been arguing pro-Left. The answer, to the writer's mind, would be that he had absolutely no reason to leave. He especially when an opponent boxes him, as Lulis did—and with him on the opponent's right and then pummel him with his own weapon, then waken them from one clutch. Firpo would immediately go into an argument and then told him to prevent him. He had no use for his left, so he used his right. Ask Firpo, he worked under instructions from his coach, seconds had told him at any period during the fracas to "go out and do the work." It is the consensus of opinion that Harry made quick work of Bastien the Queeniello club it would not now be a major criterion; decisively loked the Wild Bull. Who knows but that the combination may be shrewd, out of the way, and giving considerable thought to that the heavyweight championship crown.
Prelude to Hostilities
Firpo was first to enter the ring. He wore his old checkered satin robe with the purple lining and great black and yellow cheeks.
He danced about the corner limbering up his legs. His hands were taped in white handages and he kept dancing on his toes as the camera men lined up to take his picture.
Harry came later, in blue and white robe. He, too, took to dancing on his toes in the corner. Firpo wore purple trunks. He stood in the ring as the gloves were being adjusted to his fists. Wills took the wise man's course and sat in his corner as the gloves were being laced.
Dan Washington. Firpo's unofficial trainer and the pet of the Luther camp, saw to it that "Firmie's" gloves were properly put on. Wills wore dark green satin trunks. The two posed, arms down, with Sullivan standing between them and Messrs. Washington and Wills.
The Bare Side
Mixed in that midsize multitude of sons of our group who came, to this from all of the West, to California, from as far South as Texas, from as far all parts of the East they then all women in that glamorous throne. As early as Monday of last week mourned in the nation's metropolis, Harlem, morning, was a portable surging of humanity during the period of any 24 hours.
Cabarets Do Big Business
Over in New York the Harlem cabaret, the exclusive club, which recently opened its doors again for business was the place of the most important, probably because of the recent murder of Barron Wilkine "the grand old man," who never missed an important fight. He was too bad that the old fellow was not part of the group from all parts of the country, but he was part of the group to have to say about a scorpion when it was held around these parts. He made his reputation interested in Jack Johnson, before Jack caught Jim Jeffries for the heavy-arms. The "Nest," Happe Rhones, Herman's inn, Conn. Inn's, John "Owl" Johnson, and other places of amusement also were interested in the handling of the thousands of visitors.
Big Wagers on Fight
The scarn probably brought between $100,000 and $200,000 into Harlem. Race people probably won around $300,000. Several wagers made by out-of-town sports ran into the thousands. A certain gent from Omaha, Neb. wagered $5,000 on Wills to win, and he won. He bet on Wills as a winner, not on a knockout. Several hundred thousand dollars changed hands in Wall St. and in other sporting places where bets are made.
The fight is over, and now, interest must be centered on the Wills. Dems set scrap-to-be, because as sure as the sun gets Dempsey will now have to retire or fight the "Brown Panther." Public sentiment will force the issue. Dempsey will probably call on Harry to polish off Jack Renault. That will be an easy proposition for him, and at the same time give him ample opportunity to sink away some more bucks. Mr. and Mrs. Wills left the city Saturday for Petersburg, 14, where they will spend three weeks at the meeting on a fair. Mrs. Wills has stuck by Ser husband since he started training at Jones' casino. Southampton, 14, about eight weeks ago.

The bull was tamed by Harry Wills.
Speaking of melting pots, Boyles' 30 acres was "bolling" over with mixed humanity of colors, creeds and races. Royalty gladly rubbed elbows with paper, and grinning excitedly blew (rope) smoke in each other's faces.
The bull was chilled, overcoats were much in evidence. So were 'brown bottles' which contained a heat producing fluid. Also an argument stimulator.
Hundreds of beautiful and well dressed women graced the middle bank with white light. They were products in a gun waiting. Fortune teller inspection.
An occasional high pitched scream from the feminine spectators took the chilliness from the air and sent it rippling down one's spine.
The well known Miss Mae C. Walker of Chicago and the cultivated voice pitched to a marked degree. She was quite free with her broadcasting and caused the Prince of Wales to turn repeatedly to locate the Bronze Beauty.
Judging from the White Wills save Finley's Brown Pashers, must have been the "King of Whales."
In a preliminary Bill Tate and Joe Casanova were scheduled for six rounds. Tate resembled a truck horse and Joe a pony.

Tours truly, ringside to Harry Wills and Firpo contest at Boyle's Thirty Acres in Jersey City last Thursday night. Up to date I have read about 30 different opinions of writers of note on the contest. The writer differs with about 27 of them. In the way of thinking, and known as much about the high game as any writer, it is experience that has taught them. I went to that same school.
I consider this bout one of the best I ever witnessed. When one considers the improved modern day of boxing, it was not a prize fight. The present day of boxing has put the game on the same bar as grand opera.
One would be adjudged crazy 20 years and the� had a predicted that boxing would draw this class of people. They went because the boxers of today have class. The majority of the newspaper writers knocked the contest. Some went as far as to say neither man had a chance with the boxers.
They were very small to win on opinion, but this writer will say that Harry Wills can knock Dempsey out any time he meets him when in the same condition he was on the night of Sept. 11. What's more, Luis Firpo will be the champion of the world in two years' time if he retains Bill Tate to Instruct
Wills did not knock out Firpo, he only had one chance, that was in the game for the count of four. Had he cared to follow up his lead, financially it would have cost Wills thousands of dollars. He knows from experience that a knockout fighter gets a little to do. He has seen that he has such brains both would be better off today.
In my age I have seen four great champions that had brains of their own—Peter Jackson, James Cornett, Jack Johnson and Harry Wills. They all past masters, men of high intellect. Outside the ring, Wills has made a study of the past, in the present, years, retire and the richest boxer of all times. This is the day he is to the statement that Luis Firpo will be the champion of the world in about two years. It is a new game, Wills and taking his past performance, he was entirely a new man. Bill Tate has taught him how to hit and clinch and has got the Idon of his head that his right-hand swing would have knocked out. Tate knows Wills, Had Firpo fought Wills as he did Dempsey, he had clinched out before he lifted a flawed knee.
If Firuo had fourd Dempess as he did, he would have been at the end.

or in-fighting, and his left hand is useless as he can't even, lab with it.
Born fighters don't get anywhere—it's the fellows who learn by experience. It takes from five to eight years to make a champion. It can't be done in two or three years.
One of the most noticeable things about this contest that makes one feel good is that public sentiment has waved back into our favor. Wills was the popular favorite. It seems as if all the ladies were shouting, "Wills, Wills, I just the opposite to 20 years ago, when a Colored fighter was called all kinds of names if he was fighting a white man. Even the little children on the outside were rooting for Wills.
Another noticeable thing was the last bout on the card which was referred by Joe Bennett. When his name was announced to officiate he received a nice round of applause. Things have certainly changed these days quite a bit over those of a few years ago.

HAMLET B. "KID" BOWE
Boyle's Thirty Acres, Jersey City, N. Sept. 11, 1989. A 14-year-old Argentine boxer, in an interesting 12-round bout here tonight. About 75,000 persons, including 10,000 giganteus fastic bowl, the largest in the world, to see these two gladiators will be Jack Dempsey's next opponent. It was in this arena that Champion Dempsey made former heavyweight champion there championship aspirations two years ago and a year later Kirpio made former heavyweight champion there championship aspirations. This is the first mixed bout of any consequence since the Johnson vs. Dempsey fight rounds. Will's victory tonight precludes the possibility of anyone other than Jack Dempsey's next opponent. Tonight's battle was, from the fans, a fight between a white and a black man. Announcement of preliminaries introduced Jack Dempsey and Mickey Walker—heavyweight and a welter-
Firpo entered the ring first with Bill Tate and his other seconds; and then he proceeded by his manager, Faddy Mullins, and received twice the Wills. Firpo, their managers, seconds, Announcer Joe Humphries and Referee Danny Sullivan, joined the Wills and Firpo started on their scheduled 12-round bout. Firpo seemed nervy and cold, and confident.
Knocks Firpo Down
After two minutes of fighting in the second round, Wills cut loose with a right to left to the right, and a right to left to the hand with a trumpeter force and accuracy. Firpro drops and it looks like the beginning of the end, but Firpro sticks in and pushes fans into elcinn; many fans were on their feet clamoring for a knockout but Firpro sticks as tight to Wills as barnacles, and he combined efforts of Wills and the referee to break him loose. Round two ends without further damage to the referee, and the referee for Wills proves seems to increase as the confidence he has in himself evidently begins to wane. After the fight progresses, the referee presses the prescribed 12 rounds.
Wills Attacks Body
Wills gave Firpo some terrible body punishment throughout the game, left side, kidneys and back. Firpo's body was lived from the incessant occasional Wills would try Firpo's head and jaw, but as a rule he favored his hands by giving them a round Wills, after receiving a hard right to the jaw, stepped in close to the left of the skull and in quick succession sent two terrible rights to the jaw which stung. Deer dug in, but Wills with one arm free almost broke Firpo into halves with his might, but it would not deer dug in, but Wills looked like a piece of raw meat. Firpo tried time and again his right, but it would not deer dug in, but Wills simply without doing any damage. He rarely connected. The "Brown Panther" dealer in every department of the game. Whether they coughed it or boxed, the result was a game through with the better of the argument.
Harry Deserves Credit
In Philadelphia Sept. 8 we saw Jack Renault and George Godfrey try to meet the winner of the Firpo-Wills bout. Renault won but it was a little fiasco. Either of them won the bout, but Firpo did not providing they gave their best Monday night. Ergo the comment that many of our group because Wills failed to stop Firpo is indeed unfair to Harry. Wills deserves a worst worst beating of his career, and after twelve rounds of fighting left the ring unmarked, he was when facing Dempsey at the Polo Grounds a year ago and fought Wills entirely defensively. Dempsey in that fight, after being knocked out of the ring was assisted back and finally won, was the result of his own efforts and he was neither knocked out of the ring or even staggered-unmarked. Not a single round went to Firpo. Editor George A. Borton, Minnesota State University of sports writers in the Northwest, told the writer that Referee Danny Sullivan by his unfairness to keep him from stopping Firpo.
By every law of average, Harry Wills is the next logical contender for the heavyweight championship of the world. His decisive and clean-cut victory has earned him the right to face Jack Dempsey, the best man in the world, the best man win, for the winner will be an American and the championship will remain in America. Janette, New Jersey state referee, was the third man in the ring in the final bout, which was between Charley Kane and Jack Dempsey. This match will be remembered as being one of our best fighters around ten or fifteen years ago.

"Let's keep the men off, slelling off until the next Fletch del Toro (which, translated, means a Jolly Fletch). Let us use that Spanish."

OLD ROLL TOP DESK MAN IS ON THE JOB
Tony Langston, Fight Fan, Sees Scrap
By TONY LANGSTON
Firpo was introduced by Joe Humphreys as "the undisputed champion of dance," and he weighed in at 224% pounds, the excess showing in a roll of fat about the waist line of dancing and setting up exercises while the photographers were straightening out. Humphreys then instructed the dancers to "be the premier Colored fighter of the present day." Wills was trained to the minute and plainly did so along the line of getting perfectly conditioned. Following the usual instructions by Referee Danny Fitzgerald, sending the fighters on their way.
This writer will not give the contest round by round, would be able to give the result, the 12 sessions were practically repetitions of each other with the exception of the second round, which was knockdown of the fight. It occurred as the men were separating from a clinch and resisted calling for the fight. Firpo took a count of five. He was wrably, and wisely hung on, in the clinch which followed. This incident and a bit of long-range work in the seventh by Wills, through which Firpo's knees were broken, the high lights of the contest. Here are the second and seventh rounds as scored by the writer:
Second Round
Firpo rushed wildly from his corner, swinging a right for the jaw Wills casually in the clinch. The clinch again without striking a blow. Firpo landed a right to the body and Wills a right to the neck, and on breaking left legs and rights without damage. In a clinch Wills landed terrific body blows, and on breaking left legs and rights with no damage. His opponent for the count of five. After hanging on Firpo drove a right to the jaw and Wills a right to the neck, as he went to his corner—Wills round.
The men rushed into each others arms. Wills planted a hard left on feet and kicked his lefts and rights to the body, clinches following each lead. Firpo shifted and ran, and he ran again. Wills avoided all of Firpo's swings, and in a clench drove his right to the body. Firpo's body at long range, and closing in, landed two terrific smashes to the body. Firpo was under him and the song was a welcome sound for him—Willa's round.
And so it was all through the fight. Wills demonstrated from start to end. Firpo in every department of the game. He outboxed him at long range, repeated and far outclassed him at infighting that the exhibition at times was pitiful. He used a perfect effort to the Wild Bull, his famous right look ridiculous. By so doing Wills proved him the next contender for Dempsey's world championship crown, as far as the present, the heavyweight bruisers.
The writer has seen both Wills and Dempsey in action on more than one occasion, taking any credit from Wills for his inability to land a K. O, on Filipo, half a dozen different occasions during the contest. Whether there is any credit to Paddy Mullins that Wills injured his right hand in the four rounds we will see, we will say this, and without fear of competent contradiction: If Wills and Dempsey are in contest, Wills will have to bring a great deal more into the ring than he will, and he will get nowhere. He will not be facing an over-rated dub, whose only asset is a right long sent is; he will not be closing in and whaling away at the kidneys or defense at close quarters, who will cast eyes of distress toward the referee, what elicites, if any, might occur.
On the other hand, he will be facing a batter who knows every trick of the game, and will deal with a peculiable hands; one with a world of science and speed, as much at home at close quarters as he is long gone, and will deal with a dwelling wall in each mitt, with the heart of a lion and the vicious, kill-ying predator in his grasp, to find in Dempsey is directly opposite type of opponent from the Wild Bull. We have but little doubt that Wills will be a good reader, to serve him as he always seems to be "under. wraps." in a manner of speaking. If such is the case, when he meets the opponent, he will be unbuckle or there will be no change of title. P. S.—How many of our readers will be able to finish the final bell had been being Sam Langtord, Jack Johnson or even Joe Walcott when those boys, were "right?" You tell it!

A shout went up as the pacemaker's ear with the starter in it got the cars away at a good start in the main event, the 50-mile national derby. Casey Jones of Hallock, Minn., piloting a Frontenac entered by William Hottens after it was found that the latter would be unable to drive, shot into the lead on the jump, with Carson in Sam George's entry a close second. Bailey of Muncle, Ind., in his yellow Front Ford, was next and the order of cars was as follows as they flashed by the checker's stand ending the first lap: Casey Jones, William Carson, Hugh Bailey.

Headen, Chicago, driving a Smart Special, made by Ben Mack of the two Colored men's make of cars entered. No. 19. Charlie Jones (Bite Britches) in a Ball Special, entered by the Fifty in his Raleo Ford, No. 6.
The first two cars held the same positions until the third mills. Harvone whose car was leaking water, and Hannon had shot in front of Valencon whose car was leaking water, and Buford had chained positions. Jackson, Tyler and Heiden remained the same, the same. Ranka Chakra on the front. At the end of the third lap Barnes flashed in front of the stands in third place, let him have the first turn. Buford followed, with Hannon, Jackson, Tyler, Heiden, Hargrove and the rest of the cars. Casey Jones hit the fence and his car went out of the race, leaving the turn coming up. Bufords car, had chucked a trollef and in trying to steer clear of the tire Casey took the wrecked wheels. He was slightly ablured. Carson took the lead. Cliff Jacktime and the field followed, with Hargrove of Gary dolls some clever driving.
There is trepidation and humor in life. So in this particular race came a humorous incident following the tragedy in the 29-mile event. Buford after losing his tire and going into the fence not another tire and got back into the race. The judges had to laugh at the continued two or three laps after being waved off the track. Barnes struck some touch, and the other was not to be seen at the lap. When he lost his head and after a lap was forced to the pls to get one on. No. 27 with Carson driving a steady race still in the lead. Headen and Smart move up. Banks gained and so did Harper.
Headen was forced out of the race on ninth lap with a broken erank stint.
Carson passed three cars on the back stretch and the crowd suddenly shifts to him. The dust on the turns was blinding.
Hargrove on the twelfth lap had worked into second place with Valentine and Cliff Jackson were trailing. These positions remained the same until the next the end of the race, while leading cars lapsed some of the other's Bailey went out of the race early when his car hit the fence after he had avoided a collision on the turn. Sky Banks in his red car. No. 6, is raising the dust and he's likely to place in the money.

Forty-eighth Ian: Sky Banks turns over when the knuckle on the bleeding arm is in the face. He lost control of the steering wheel and the car turned turtle as he was under pressure underneath. He is rushed to the hospital. The race continues. The excited fans insist on running across the street to the Cicero police start club them. Carson wins the race amid a great ovation. William Kearns, dumbbell Jack, Clifford Jack of Chicago is third and Harroge of Gary, fourth. The first race is the afternoon's dumbbell jack consolidation, for all cars falling to qualify in the morning trials.

Edwin Daunden of Muncie, Ind., with a Cheese special, broke his steering gear in the trials and couldn't get his car running.
Walthall jumped into the lead in the 10-mile consolation and was in the lead when the Headers pressed him closely on the first turn, but after that it was Walthall all the way. At the finish Walthall was the winner, and who was followed closely by Harroves. The winner lapped Banks on the eighth lap, and did the same trick to Tyler on the second lap. Event No. 2 on the program was

Harry A. Earl, financial promoter of the Indianapolis 100-mile derby, and manager of the same race, who acts as secretary and treasurer of the annual race, drove here in the Chelsea Sox in the running of the national 50-mile derby. Earl was introduced to the crowd and was given a big ovation by the folks in the stands and inclosure. He acted as pacemaker in the 20- and 50-mile events. Earl will be heard from in the near future. Besides already planning for the national 100-mile race, Indianapolis he will say in the near future that will aid automobile racing among our people throughout the country.
He run off second and the distance was run off second and the distance was to live. It was a match race between Jefferies, auto race driver and general manager of the Chicago Cubs in the George Reckk who holds the dirt track record at Hawthorne. Beek was in a Betz special who carried Beck in the Carlsbad Rock chauffeur qualified in the morning trials.
Beck's ability to take the turns at lead by the third mile, but on the last lap Jerseyes creep up and hit the stretch on the second mile. In a driving finish Beck won by a car length. No time was given on this race. Beck went on to next it. It was the Dreamland Derby, for the six fastest cars qualifying in the tryouts, offers fees and his request was granted. The following drivers faced the starter's flag: Doc White of Chicago, Minnesota, in a frontal; William Carson of Chicago, in a Betz special; High Bailer of funerals, in a Betz special; Bailer of Indianaapolis, in a Barnes special, and Sam George, in the Lewis Brothers' Cliff Woodbury's Premier, won, with Casey Jones, in the Lewis Brothers' Frontenac, entourage, and Bailey of Munice was third. The position of cars finishing one, two, three was the first mile until the finish of the race. Then came the 20-mile event, in which the injured and outfitted
Jefferies, in the Zepp No. 1 fast special Ford, and Johnny Arrington, driving an Essex No. 30, were forced out of the 20-mile event early. Arrington hit the fence on the first lap. Carson didn't enter because the clutch collar on his Betz special broke. Jefferies skidded into the fence on the third lap and came out of the accident with a bruised shoulder.
Jefferies led in the first three laps until he took he fence. Casey Jones was following, with Doc White in his Premier car in third place. George Adams, in the Silver Cab special, followed, and behind him was the field.
On the second mile the first four cars held the same position, but on the third mile White had dropped into fourth position and Hannon had moved into second place, with Jones third. The end of the fourth found Jones leading. Doc White caused up into second place. Hannon third, Bailey fourth, and Adams fifth.
Doc White shot into the lead at the end of the fifth and beginning of the abreast of him. A frenzied shout came from the excited crowd. Wiley, who was in a cloud of dust, at this moment a half dozen spectators broke through the police lines and started to neck speed. It was here Wiley met his fate and Fred Shaw was killed. Doc White, who was in a cloud of dust, went into the fence trying to avoid the neck speed. The public soon forgot the accident after the limp bodies of the two men had been hurriedly taken from the scene in hot pursuit, passed car after car. Right after Walthall, in his Marmon, the police were forced to the wrecking of Wiley's car, forced into the pit and out of the race, because the water jacket broke. Doc White, in his Marmon, the buttons entry, capped the Dreamland Derby in 16:45 15, which wasn't the Robeys race, but the Robeys race was 17 and a fraction for the same distance.

Tiger Flowers Signs Life Contract With Walk Miller
BY JIMMY BURNS
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 19—In self-defense and out of gratitude to the man who made him what he is in the fight game today, Tiger Flowers, the sensational middleweight, who has added a newspaper decision over Harry Greb, world's middleweight champion of the world, to his growing list of honors, has signed a life-time deal with Walk Miller, his manager.
Flowers decided that such action would further worry at the hinds of fight managers who are without seropiles and who want to add the Tiger to his list. As much as $25,000 to jump Miller. They have pointed out that they can care for his services better than Walk.
But Flowers, in the face of all these alliances has laughed and allowed as how he will stick with Misi-
One large syndicate of New York managers sets out to develop a shady business deals rather than the development of real top-netchutters, only recently offered by the company. Immediately after Flowers fight with Harry Groeb at Fremont he received the offer of a $5,000-auree plantation in the management of an Atlanta man, who knows as much about managing fighters as about Mars and possessing inhabitation skills, a persistent bidder for the Tiger. But the efforts to get possession of Flowers have given great drawing cards in the fight game, have not stopped with overtures to Flowers. One manager who have vainly tried to entice Flowers away from Miller have offered the latter a life-time offer to the Tiger's services. The same New Yorkers that approached Flowers offered Miller $2,500,000 for his contract and offered the Tiger the services. The same New Yorkers that approached Flowers offered Miller $2,500,000 for his contract and offered the Tiger the services. Signing a life-time contract that would allow him to long as he stalks to the game was done at the repeated insistence of Flowers, who was tired of being worried by the sales of his manager. He said to Miller:
"Mister Walk, these managers is worrying me to death. They pester me, and don't want to leave you. I have a hard time telling them why and if we had a life-time contract, could turn them off. But Miller was reluctant to tie Flowers up to such an entangling, and far-reaching contract. But Flowers contracted. But Miller is a mark of appreciation on Flowers' part that has seldom been seen in the big business. Jack knows, who has a life-time contract.

"See Mister Walk," is what Flowers tells the men who would be his boss. Flowers, while lighter produced in the South, every man who has fought under his leadership has money. This condition has finally established Miller as the Tex Rickard of the South, for he has promoted all men in the South, and the South, Miller is one of the few men in the fight game in whom the sport writers of Atlanta have come to depend on. The bad matched Flowers with Jack Dempsey I would print the story, because I know that Miller only gives out flowers.

When the latter returned to Atlanta, exhibited a new skill, he got he that way, Walk immediately forwarded transportation to the Tiger.

He would debate and train a long time before growing so bold as to take a return fight, under any conditions. But success has failed to turn Flowers' head.

He was on the second of the 2nd-six-victory in the ground for the postman and lasted until the fourth inning, when a� disliked dressed four-off off-field tying the score. John Taylor relieved him and was able to check the scoring until the eighth inning, when a baking rattled the second.
The second game was a pitchers' battle between Vann, for Philadelphia, and Evans for the Lincoln's. Neither side was still still in the second inning in the single of Goldblatt and an error by Williams gave the Hebrews one run.

TUSKEGEE OPENS SCHEDULE
OCT. 4 AGAINST 24TH INF.
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Sept. 19, 1920. Washington held the training ground of the Tuskegee Tigers, is the second of the top players of the team of Duke's Abbott. The crafty Tiger mentor, puts his charges through the pace of the pre-season, and is prepared to support the Go. When the strong 24th-infancy, eleven invades the lair of the Tiger. Remembering the scare the soldiers, when they were at the top of the team, when they held them to a 10-10-7 score. Coach Abbott and his staff are working overtime in the effort to get the team back to the end of the next day. In addition to the project, you play for this particular game. Frequent fumbling, marred the game last season, and much stress is being placed by handling the ball and in returning points.
Never before in the history of the Institute has a squad worked as hard as the 1924 aggregation of two. In the early days of the aid at a 430 a. m., this is followed by a lecture period. The second grind starts at 4 p. m. and this too is followed by another lecture period.
It is evident that Coach Abbott is emphasizing mental alertness and unلهing, and the control of the team's development is being spied in every department of the game—starting, stopping, side-stepping, and reversing.
The application of the indication is that the opponents of the Tigers this season will have to stop a baffling aerial attack as well as the onslaught of the big and small field. Most of the team is being placed upon this phase of the game, as for further indicated by the shifting of Robinson, a big tackle who is an offend.
The squad now numbers 61. Among them are Jefferson, guard: Brown, guard: Jen-Clay, end: Willow, halfback: Clay, end: Willow, halfback, and Jones, quarter back. Gillen, end, and halfback, are expected into camp daily.

No situation was too hard for them, many of the 24th, and they were many; run bases with feet, and they are the victors as well as they could think baseball as well as the Great Elmer Trammel was on the mountain was all but perfect, allowing but one hit; but he was as wild as the batters and batters hitting three. His infield made costly errors, and when the 29th held them playing into every trap of the Little Grady Tale, for the 29th, pitched a powerful game. In only two innings, the 29th rallied around him and he took courage and sullied the 29th in fifth innings. He allowed seven hits, but was defeated. The 29th infield again played a remarkable game, especially Killie. The 29th infield again played a remarkable game, especially Killie. No errors were made by the winners.

REPUBLICANS FAITHFUL TO THEIR TRUST
Have Tried to Uphold Our Constitution
Negro voters, as representatives of a number of ethnic groups, by dint of circumstances, are the first to feel the touch of adversity and the last to reach the reward of endeavor, are the first to understand the responsibility is two-fold in its scope, and that there are ample precedents for a full knowledge on their part of the issues under which they has opened the door of "opportunity" to the groups for which they are electoral spokesmen. They are under a representative form of government, pledged to function for all the people. Colored voters have a primal interest in America and America's protection, to them promised; and as trustees of the hopes and desires of a struggling nation, by Lincoln and added by his party successors, the duty is theirs to see that the principle of freedom by legislation, for them and their followers, is
Ever since they became freemen, the Colored citizens of the United States have made their chief ad- dressers the open ones were open by legislation. Though the courts were busy many years in interpreting the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and S. Constitution, the legislative inten- sions of Congress were finally clarified in favor of the Colored citizens. In 1857, the United States of Delaware for his constitutional right to serve on a jury, until now when the rights of Colored people to secure a judicial decision. The right to be wherever they will, legislation has been the forerunner of an opportunity to secure a judicial decision. The right to be Ohio. the rights of Interstate pass-engers, the distribution of taxation, the anti-lynching bill and many other legislative attempts are examples of the tendency of progress upon legislation.
Negro voters, however, who have access to the unrestricted use of the ballot, can easily and effectively influence the type of legislation which they desire, and can decide whom they will select to carry out their wishes in the legislative chambers of their state and their congress. Not only are they not to be so far from the point of view of the National Congress's session of the exception of a few private bills, nothing has been done in the way of legislation. They should note well that the combination of Democrats and rudicals has turned a deaf ear to such important items as agriculture, anifying and the like. Negro voters should take an inventory of the needs of their farmers, their school that is not the best of their education, and they will recall that these entities of supreme interest, and within the pledges of the Republican party, which has ever promoted a constructive legislation for the welfare of all the people, have been locked up in the safe deposit vaults of a blockade movement, and zealously guarded from the Republican legislators by a band of radical Democrats, unmoved by duty, unschemed by loyalty, and strenuously so to the pastime of creating political sensations rather than enacting laws.
Negro voters cannot forget—they must not forget that the privilege is not a right, but a necessity of progress and the battles of economic freedom, and to replace them with the Republican legislators, in the Republic's superpower, loyal to its doctrines, will safeguard and promote the cause of the lowest and the most human burden. To exercise this privilege is to have failed to honor those heroes, who were the "sults" onward, invoked legislation as a cure for the lilts which have uset them.

Movable Schools Bring Modern Farm Methods to Rural Homes
Extension Work for Farmers Is Conducted Under Co-operative Direction of U. S. Department of Agriculture
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 20. 1924
---
Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute was an important part in the beginning of extension work among Negroes in the South, and it also provided activities by the Republican administration at Washington through the Negro community. Being an industrial school, it was comparatively easy to converse with the students in the communities in which it is located. In fact, Tuskegee institute is located in the city of Tuskegee, and its students worked. The first house it occupied was that of the landlord who owned the plantation, known as the "56 hogs."
As far back as 25 or 30 years ago, Dr. Booker T. Washington, then principal of the importance of in some way getting hold of the Colored people around the school who lived, many of whom were out a bare existence on their poorly worked farms. It was this condition that gave him the inspiration to work with the farmers and to begin the organization of little local farmers' conferences. He would have groups of people, beginning with the organization and annually to talk over their problem, at which time simple and yet attractive exhibitions of farm equipment were presented to the object of inspiring them to go home and grow as good products on their farms. Equipment grew, Doctor Washington was anxious to extend this kind of information throughout the county in the county, and adjacent counties, so he went to a rich man in the North and obtained some funds with which to carry equipment and specimens of good products for demonstrating farm equipment. In the course of the year he had been brought from year to year by the institution, those who were not have the moral courage to attend these meetings. So he bought and fitted out the "Jesup Agricultural equipment and utensils to show the farmers and their wives some of the fundamental things they might themselves to improve their condition.
The Ball Weovil
The coming of the Mexican cotton bolt weevil across the Rio Grande river into Texas possibly had more to do with accelerating extension work than any one thing. The Mexicoian�ish is coming to the same way, by the coming of this pest threatening the entire cotton belt, looked about for some means to remedy this condition. Representatives of the Department of Agriculture were prepared to send in this infested region to study the situation, finding that the only substantial way to light the pest was through a system of educating those who consider the potential of the cultural methods. In view of the fact that cotton is largely cultivated by Negro labor, it became necessary then to work out a scheme that would round the mean of the Neurosons of the cotton barns at the same time an effort was made by the depart- to encourage the Negro institutions to give some kind of instruction along that line to enable a significant and more likely to teachers going out from these schools. Dr. Seaman A. Knapp of the U. S. department of agriculture was sent to Tuskegee in a visit to confor with Dr. B. T. Washington 1905 at the B.A.C.P. at that time to employ agricultural leaders having the advantage of industrial training to go out into the rural districts and instruct the people of the country to do what they could to control to that they could grow cotton under 2000 percent of the same time encourage them to increase their food and feed production so—at the same time as the associated people will be making these short, sچبون, crom.
Beginning in the year 1906, then, the state and federal departments of educationary purposes the local plan that Tuskegee had been operating and beaten up by the work among Negroes throughout the cotton belt. As the work proved successful, the department began putting money enough into the work (formerly finance department) with Tuskegee institute furnishing headquarters) to make it felt in a general way in the states, all the more educational by making its local headquarters at the various Negro educational institutions of the Southern States.
Co-operate With Tuskegee
Tuskegee institute has always been somewhat of a "proving station for education" and the federal and state department has helped to develop Negro rural life and the federal and state department kept in close touch with such activities and have been quick to adopt any of these plans, and ideas that have been carried out in an extensive way the things worked out there in an inter-departmental effort. U.S. department of agriculture has taken over the co-operative direction of Negro extension work, much has been done in the area of teaching the mass of the people. Extension work carried on in Alabama among Negro men, women and children, divided among four general heads—county, agent, home demonstration, boys' clubs, and movable schools of agrifolio.
The county agent work is directed mainly towards the grown-up farmer on the farm, and carried on through a local agent who resides in the county. The home demonstration work, carried on by domestic external work, is the external problem of Negro home life which is so sadly neglected. It is safe to say that the meat of most domestic external work in the rural district can be traced to the lack of a well organized home life. Work with boys' clubs is carved out of the curriculum, the object of inspiring them while they are young to study the subject of farming while at home and when encouraging side of the Negro boys' life on the farm is the fact that the monotonous work, absence of recreational sports, and the lack of money in these boys from the farm for good. Movable schools of agriculture, cultural Wagon, is proving one of the best means adopted recently for proving to the people generally that they can improve their own condi-
Work With Poor
This phase of work is carried on by a man agent, a woman agent (home economics teacher), and a rural instructor in meetings at churches and schools in a community, to go directly to the home. Most people not familiar with the work would naturally think that the best way to improve the best home in the community
to work with, but they do just the opposite. Through the local agent the offer of a rather poor home is obtained and for about a week this house and its surroundings are used to make the house with a table.
The community to learn how to do many simple things, so that they may each be able to go home and put the same into practice.
The man agent takes the boys and men of the community who come to this home, organizes them into groups and gives them practical instruction to the children down the hill on aۈkib.
The family, building sanitary toilets, sanitary poultry houses, and, when in season, instruction is given in curing and killing sweet potatoes, pruning the orchard, terracing land, or in-occurring hogs. An effort is made to give a serious group as nearly as possible what they would like to know, the people of the community doing the work, themselves, under the guidance of the members of the movable school force, so that they may be able to continue it after the school is gone.
The women are organized in groups and are given instructions in cleaning the house; they wash the cast-away rags and from them make rugs and mats; they learn to make useful articles from corn shucks; basketry is taught; they are given instructions in cooking, remodelling of the kitchen and making a new work.
The whole process is also given in noultry raising.
During the stay of the movable school force in the community the rural nurse makes community surveys and provides first-hand information on home sanitation, giving specific attention to baby welfare, the eradication of vermin—fles, mosquitoes and hedgehogs, and local physicians in the community.
Taught to Play
At the close of each day of these schools, the whole group of "students" instruction on how to play. They play simple games in which all can participate, such as volley ball, hula, juggling, and various other games. It is interesting to notice how even the old, infirm and decrepit finally take part and force themselves in the school was not this extensive when it depended on the "Jesup Agricultural Wagon" for transporting one person to a small capacity vehicle carried only farming equipment and an instruction force of one man, whose work was done by the students. The success of this venture was so successful, however, that when Tuskegee extension work be carried out by the state agricultural extension work carried on by the United States department of agriculture and the state agricultural extension work known as the "Knapp Agricultural Truck" was substituted for the manger man and the state agricultural extension work carried on by helpers. This truck during its years of service has visited every community of Alabama having a Negro agricultural agent.
Then in January, 1923, on the "Farmers' Day" instituted by Doctor Barnett, the farm was donated to the co-operative extension service a larger automobiles equipped for extension work, to be known at the "Booker T. Washington School on Wheels." bought and fitted a 100-horse Neroz farmers and their friends as an expression of their belief in this method of teaching better farming. They were also as a memorial to its originator. This new truck carries a complete stock of farm implements and home equipment that the farmer would be able to purchase or construct and operate. It also carries a picture quiet and a suburban picture quiet and a suburban picture quiet.
Movable school work is especially adaptable to the needs of Negro farmers for the simple reason that it reaches "the man furthest down" who lives in the most remote sections of the rural districts, and the instruction is elementary so as to instruct this class of people. The object of these movable schools is to place before the farmers concrete illustrations proving to them that they can do better work, raise more produce on a smaller number of acres of land at less expense, and at the same time have an attractive, comfortable home. In conducting these schools there is very little lecturing or other formal proceeding. The time is given to actual performance of the work. These simple and practical demonstrations go far towards stimulating the interest of the Negro farmer in his home and strengthening his attachment for it, even though he may not own it. They also stimulate the desire of a tenant farmer to own property and lead the farm women to adopt more industrious and thrifty habits in home making.
"To belong to this system of traveling through the rural districts of the country, to be a member of the movable school force, "is almost a sacred privilege. The domestics are a medium of agricultural instruction but a social stimulant in the backward communities. He gets to know the farmers. He gains their confidence. He talks with them in their own language about their many problems; he hears their stories and listens to interesting stories about the local history; he encourages parents to send their children to school; he breaks down superstition; he helps make the sympathy of the children; and he does untold good towards gaining for the South more intelligent, peaceful and celiac.
Details of the School
The regular Movable School force consists of four workers—one woman instructor in home economies, one health nurse who devotes all of her time to health subjects, and one man in charge of work for men and boys. The fourth worker is the local agent of the country in which the school is being conducted. This agent joins the Molable School for work when they enter his other country and the member of the force while in this county, which is usually from four to five days. Where there is a woman and a man agent in the county, they both join the force. The territory to be covered by the Movable School in Alabama is 24 counties.
The program as carried out the past year covered health and sanitation, farm and home improvement, care or poulting, care and impairment, and livestock.
The movable school force travels over the state in a two-ton motor truck which is equipped as follows: Equipment for men and boys; two farm levels for teaching farmers to terrace and drain land level; up buildings and lay off lines for fences, etc.; set of carnentry tools used for repairing homes, building door steps, poultry house, sanitary toilets and smoking toilets; a small toilets for treating horses for cholesterol.

"One of the agents started to the kitchen, was met at the door by the housewife, who seemed to be very much embarrassed because of the cold, gritty water out to her. The agent waited on the outside, for she knew outside appearance of the old, dilapidated log room that the inside hipped and said: 'Well, Lord, I jest don't know what to do.' The agent asked me to fill in the form, and I didn't piled. I didn't get nothing for you all's dinner. I saunted my boy to do store (which was six miles away) and came back and tells me dere'n't none. The agent said: 'Why, I was beautiful. Suppose we gather vegetables from it for dinner.' Upon which you reckon you all would like 'en'? You know I jes likes to get something from de store when we company goes out to the garden. glad you likes what dere' in de garden.' The agent said: 'Just ber of the force must eat his or her share of vegetables and fruits, not wholesome milk, so along with other demonstrations we are delighted to demonstrate the cooking, serving and eating of vegetables from your garden.'
Cook Meal
"The agents, local and movable school, prepared dinner of vegetable bread and baked apples. One agent with a group of women prepared the vegetables; the other with another group of women cooked utensils. This is what we found and used—one iron pot, one iron skillet, one iron baker, three tin pans, one tin pan. We managed to prepare dinner by having the classes to come in the kitchen in relays. The kitchen was very small and filled with things
"With dinner about ready we were puzzled about a place to serve it; we could not think of serving dinner in that little kitchen. One of the agents asked the housewife if she might move the table under a shaded tree so we could give us demonstration to the women and girls together, seeing a table unglued by a small. This demonstration gave us chance to have the dishes washed, rinsed and dried before setting the table. Some of the equipment was used which is carried in the truck, to complete the demonstration, such as dish towels, napkins, knives, forks and spoons. Of course we talked at length of what we as wives and girls could do to make the eating place clean and attractive. During the dinner hour the other house talked freely. Among other things he said he had never tasted soup like that and asked for a second serving and wanted to know if his wife had learned to make soup from our receipt (meaning recipe). While eating dinner he asked for bread and one of the agents passed it. He said: 'I don't mean the sweet bread. I want to be a good bread.' When told it was could be a book a piece and a reel. What, where hope you left the receipt, for making dis bread with my wife.

A FINANCIAL DEPARTURE
That Doctor Moton heads a financial venture lend interest to any scheme or plan to relieve or advance the people. The Negro Finance corporation, which was heralded with great confidence by the late men of the National Negro Business league in Chicago on the boards as the latest effort to put the Race beyond want, but beyond wanting for any outward plan for his financial redemption. Sound finance inside and outside the Race join in the opinion that the plan will work. The people, from whom the money will come, await the plan. When they get, they will study it as they have studied no other plan a history of many "plans."
Gentlemen behind the corporation are themselves successful business men. Men diligent and successful, their own business ought to be highly so in business conducted for the people. The experience of the Race has, been such that it may be excused for not pushing into any scheme without study and investigation. As practical business men, many large wealth, the sponsors of the Negro Finance, were not sensitive to the inquiry imined at their proposition. The name of the venture, we take it, is not to circumscribe the effort the business, but rather to school the country in expectation of important successes from the Race. Million dollar concern could hardly draw the color line. As ever, business is business.
The resources of the Race have scarcely been touched. It we consider the sad experience the Race was encountered in its short life of ups and down that must declare it to be a people of unlimited fail never says "No," not even to lively schemes of dubious hopes. Doctor Moton and his friends must expect a ready and full response to their appeal which is made, not only because of the character and standing of its backers, but particularly because the Race is determined to establish its independence as competency in the world of dollars and cents.
What, then, is the Negro Finance corporation whose fathered the idea alone can set it for the bright particular hope lies in the fact that amoins backers we find neither plungers nor parasites.

OF THE MAKING OF BOOKS

Ages before Solomon is reported by historians, spoke truthfully: "Of
Addison, by many held to be the brightest observer in English literature, gives us the thought: "No man writes a book without meaning something, though he may not have the faculty of writing consequentially and expressing his meaning." Ages before Solomon, as reported by historians, spoke truthfully: "Of the making of books there is no end." If our ancestors had been as ready with the pen as with tongue and voice much of the contempt we now face and fight would have been unknown. A certain sign of the progress of the Race is in its awakening as expressed in books, historical, poetical and romantic. A book-writing people means a thinking people. Chains, neither for body or mind, can be forged for a thinking people. "Momentous, wonderful, worthy are the things we call books." wrote Carlyle.
The Race in the United States is perhaps the first division, or semidivision, of man that has produced a "Race literature." That fact, by some deemed happy, may be our intellectual undoing. Literature is impossible of confinement to sect or tribe. Letters is universal and the soul, though encased in a natural body, takes on the spiritual body and will not be imprisoned. Maybe such books as we have written, such literature as we have produced, necessarily had to be "racial," because of the conditions of our daily life. Struggling against odds beyond the computation of man we have cried aloud in all ways we knew, first by prayer, then by speech and finally by the pen of indignation. Whether the "literature" so produced will live as a genuine contribution to the letters of America only time can tell. None living will be present when the award is made or the controversy over that "literature" begins. Sufficient unto the day is the civil and the controversy thereof.
How long this burst of racial indignation will run none can tell. It will last, one may be sure, as long as "man's inhumanity to man" is the religion of our country. It is not for us to discourage either debaters or writers from the task of noble defense of their people. On the other hand, we do glory in the readiness with which our brightest minds judge the offense to be against them when aimed at the whole. The arts of defense have often been learned in the school of the prosecution and those who have spoken, best for the Race have been those who listened most closely to teachers who had in mind strange thoughts of men and their co-relationship. In such an environment philosophy is born.
Our great contribution to American literature remains to be made. Our figures in imaginative writing, in historical production, in poetic power are yet to come. Two of our greatest minds, Douglass and Washington, are already judged and accepted, not only by their country, but by the world. Dunbar, as the poet who looked into the soul of his people, will hardly be surpassed. But the poet who can also look into the souls of all people will yet appear. The novelist or romancer capable of looking out into the world and embracing the moods and passions of men, the virtue and designs of woman, will claim the attention of society and literature as serious contenders for recognition for genius or talent rather than the story teller or word photographer speaking his own anger or picturing a world in which he himself is the sufferer. Dryden, who gave us Virgil after Virgil had given the Trojans to immortal place, said, "Books are spectacles to read nature." Hope, then, that the day is not too distant when the gull of our Race will begin to fashion spectacles for all who desire to see more clearly and read nature with eyes that will speak immediately to the heart.
More than two billion dollars' worth of crops in the United States are destroyed annually by insect pests. There are more than one hundred different kinds of these pests, most of them being immigrants from foreign countries where control measures are not rigidly enforced.

BUSINESS POINTERS
THE "UMPIRE"
WE ALL remember when Judge Lance appointed as the chief umpire of our baseball. And most of us know who owners of baseball plants and franchises are the "judge" for this important "job." Baseball needed just such a man! N Questions his honesty and fair-mindedness is not only the friend of the owners, but the wise the best friend the players have ever. Every game and every business, great or must have an "umpire," must have the greatest "declinations" and she the greatest "players" accept those "decisions in good grace—whether they are called "gout."
WE ALL remember when Judge Landis was appointed as the chief empire of organized baseball. And most of us know why the owners of baseball plants and franchises selected the "judge" for this important "job." Baseball needed just such a man! No one questions his honesty and fair-mindedness. He is not only the friend he has, but is like wristbands to the players have ever had. Every game and every business, great or small, must have an "umbrella."
Somebody must make "decisions" and some of the greatest "players" accept those "decisions" in good grace—whether they are called "safe" or "out."
That's part of the "game."
That's part of the game.
Every business organization has its disgruntled "player." We've got to get to them. We've got to appeal to their sportsmanship. We will succeed more often than fall if we go at it in the proper manner.

BEING RESPECTABLE
When that Arkansas judge attempted to Chicago young lady with, "Well, Miss Nile is to be white, ch?" she encouraged the philosophy of the race problem in her reply, and, "No, judge, I want to be respectable, bring lady on her way to serve as maid to her sister in Dermott, Ark., purchased a broad ticket, which supposedly insured her comfortable journey to her destination. She found a condition, which, as a self-ridman, she could not stomach. The Jim Crawford aside for her and her people was monopolized to train "butcher" and his wares. Howawful over the few available seats drinkable and befoiling the air with their only stories. In a vain effort to protect her, critically nurtured young woman travelled without the benefit of male protection took the coach reserved for white people. In this peace and quiet and cleanliness—a place respectable person could be protected, they were white. This desire cost the young family a hundred and fifty dollars and an amount of the fine which a Southern judge necessary to show the world a real example of chivalry. When people tell us to trust good sense of Southern people we distances like these and ask them if the Soy such article or knows that it exists there is no way under the sun for us to throw white that comes out of the South unacquaintances. For the South, despite all efforts of its leaders, its does not want us to be self-reliant. Its whole system is shaped by any sense of manhood or womanhood. Young woman had had the protection of our men and he had dared to stand by us to have been another lynching party and to worry about the unnameable crime would have outside world. As long as these conditions the South there is no excuse for men and we want to be what God gave them every time to remain in the South. They cannot be be anything else and chattels. The Soy permit nothing else. According to the South respectability is for white only. The law institution mean nothing to a Southerner is concerned. If we stay in the South we better to starve in the North rather than lose men holds most dear—his self-respect. White men North and South are made to recountry can exist with one law for which another for us can we be sure of what most white men know only one supreme law the dollar. When you leave his fields and talk a language which he will understand for he may be. We have long counseled us come out of the South. We see no good ranging that platform. Every day our pursuit. Jim Crow cars must be abolished.ools must go. We propose to fight this bad monster of prejudice and oppression it is won or until we draw our last breath it is foul and cowardly. It knows no law in the law of passion and hatred. Being like a large part of life. Better to die self respect.
When that Arkansas judge attempted to rebuke the Chicago young lady with, "Well, Miss Nigger, you want to be white, ch?" she encouraged the whole philosophy of the race problem in her reply when she said, "No, judge, I want to be respectable." This young lady on her way to serve as maid of honor to her sister in Dermott, Ark, purchased a first-class railroad ticket, which supposedly insured her a safe and comfortable journey to her destination. Instead she found a condition, which, as a self-respecting woman, she could not stomach. The Jim Crow coach set aside for her and her people was monopolized by the train "butcher" and his wares. White men sprawled over the few available seats drinking "white mule" and befouling the air with their oaths and filthy stories. In a vain effort to protect herself this delicately nurtured young woman traveling alone without the benefit of male protection took refuge in the coach reserved for white people. In that coach was peace and quiet and cleanliness—a place where a respectable person could be protected, providing they were white. This desire cost the young woman's family a hundred and fifty dollars and costs, the amount of the fine which a Southern judge felt was necessary to show the world a real example of Southern chivalry. When people tell us to trust in the ultimate good sense of Southern people we point to instances like these and ask them if the South has any such article or knows that it exists anywhere. There is no way under the sun for us to trust anything white that comes out of the South under such circumstances. For the South, despite all the protests of its leaders, does not want us to be respectable or self-reliant. Its whole system is shaped to rob us of any sense of manhood or womanhood. If that young woman had had the protection of one of her own men and he had dared to stand by her there would have been another lynching party and the usual story about the unnameable crime would have reached the outside world. As long as these conditions obtain in the South there is no excuse for men and women who want to be what God gave them every right to be in the South. They cannot stay there and be anything else but chatels. The South will permit nothing else. According to the Southern code, respectability is for white only. The law and the Constitution mean nothing to a Southerner where we are concerned. If we stay in the South we perish. Better to starve in the North than lose all that man holds most dear—his self-respect. Not until white men North and South are made to realize that no country can exist with one law for white people and another for us can we be sure of our future. Most whites know only one supreme law, the law of the dollar. When you leave his fields and his plows you talk a language which he will understand wherever he may be. We have long counselled our people to come out of the South. We see no good reason for changing that platform. Every day our position is justified. Jim Crow cars must be abolished. Separate schools must go. We propose to fight this hydra-headed monster of prejudice and oppression until the fight is won or until we draw our last breath. The South is foul and cowardly. It knows no law other than the law of passion and hatred. Being respectable is a large part of life. Better to die than to lose self respect.

Our mayor has had a good deal to say about the future of Chicago and its great name. He has made a great name for himself as an upholder of the law. We would like to see his fame enhanced and take the liberty of suggesting one or two ways in which that could be done. In this great city of ours live some hundred and fifty thousand of our people. Mr. Dever knows them for they voted to make him mayor in very large numbers. He promised among other things to give them representation on the school board. He promised to see to it that the laws of the city should apply to them just as they do to any other group of people. In a word he expressed his belief that there should be one law and one code for everybody. We still await the fulfillment of that promise with reference to the school board. Meantime we are just as much interested in some other phases of our civic life and organization which vitally affect us and our well being. Mr. Mayor, when will you see to it that our men are given a square deal in the fire department. That Taylor Street Jim Crow company is a disgrace to you and to the city. There is no good reason why the fire department should be any different than our police department. Both are supposed under civil service regulation. Yet unless a man dies at Taylor street there is no place in the entire fire department for one of our group who applies and passes the examinatio. Our men work throughout the city in the police department and do so with little or no trouble or friction. They have made a record of which the entire city is proud. The fire department is or should be on the same basis as the police department. It can be made free from Jim Crow methods. Mr. Mayor, if you will use the influence of your office to see that it is done. We ask no favors, Mr. Mayor, just a fair show and even break in a municipal service for which we pay and from which we have a right to expect fair play for our young men who have ability and a desire to show it in this branch of the city service.
And, Mr. Mayor, you might look into that disgraceful jail where our boys and men are herded together like cattle, as if color could make any difference in criminals. What right has the thief or a murderer to draw the line on his comrades in trouble. And what right has a public official to aid and abet such a theory or practice. We look to you, Mr. Mayor, to remedy conditions such as these which are wrong and harmful. We remember your promise to be mayor of all the people and all we ask is the fulfillment of that promise under the law.

MODERN SCIENCE
Science! Oh, wonderful science! It is the findings of scientists, who are men with broad, feet, and foreheads and narrow appetites and for the most part possessed of bald, pates, upon which rest six-quart hard, shiny hats.
Some of the scientists, better known as "joy killers," have crops of white hair, rendered so from working the brain overtime trying to discover a new meal crumbs. The bald ones devoid of moss on the summit of their think-jugs through direct connection or contact with rattle pins in the hands of their rattle wives, whom they
try to convince that they have been chasing stars and not chorus girls.
Science has destroyed more good food and rendered more good swimming holes useless than any other known cause or reason. It is the mother of germs, chief necessity of life, and the greatest misuse to humanity. Before science got into the game regular fellows bit off one another's candy; but science has produced so many germs that they are on that, too. Poor germs! I wonder where they lived before science began looking out for them!

Beauty must fade. But beauty can fake, and when Father Time refuses to concede that her face is neutral territory woman cooks herself a fresh complexion every day. Man is really vainer than woman. But he denies with gestures and unexpurgated editions of language. For nature intended that man's face is more refined than man realizes of clinging whiskers and bungles of twining beards. But does man allow his whiskers to grow and hide his strong, sloping chin and his virile but invisible upper lip? He does not. Because, for some purposes, man must conceive that his face is good to look upon in its raw state, even when it scaves horses, frightens babies and causes cats to throw sympathetic fits.

LIKED GIRLS' CAMP
Chicago, Ill., Sept. 3, 1924.
Mr. R. S. Abbott, Editor Chicago Defender:
Dear Mr. Abbott—As the editor of the largest Colored paper in the world, I should like you to know, from a spectator's point of view, about the program of the HandCamp that has just closed. This camp was under the direction of Mrs. Lulu E. Lawson of the Young Women's Christian Association.
I was there Friday night (stunt night), and the program prepared that afternoon for the visitors that night could not have been excelled. Truly it was fine. The girls imitated "Tunnin' Wild" with all the grace and tuneful melodies that genuine professional artists could have done. Helen Ford and Theo Garnett impersonated Miller and Lyles and their jokes. The way it was enjoyed could only be told by the screens of laughter from the audience. An artist could not have danced with any more grace than did Helen Ford, who has been interviewed by the Dunean sisters and amused by the forms in the big shows in the loop. She is a born artist, for music is in her bones. She sways in just the right way to remind one of the movements of a bird. She is really great, and has never had a lesson.
Dorothy Jackson, Marcia Wilson and Frances O'Neill were very fine. Their numbers were unique, putting it mildly. They are students of Hazel T. Davis. Miss Robertine Simons, in her Spanish costume, was wonderful. Miss Simons has never studied interpretative dancing, but is gifted in such a way that her facial expression speaks in the same language as her dance. She is also very fine. The mandolin and guitar duet played and sung by the Lecs sisters was a treat all by itself. Those girls left us all wanting to hear them again, even after the second and third encore. The happiness that seemed to reign in the camp could be felt keenly by the rebels from the girls because of its closing. We delighted for these girls to know just how we appreciated their program and talent, and I feel that you will be kind enough to mention it in your paper either this week or next week. X. Y. Z.
P. S.—I shall watch for your publication elgely.
CONGATULATES OUR PAPER
My Dear Mr. Abbott: I want to congratulate you on your splendid plant. It is the best I have seen of our group. You deserve all the praise that we can give you for such signs of Race progress. No man is doing more than you to solve the problem. Race problem is found of people. We are proud of your accomplishments and of your ability to do great things.
Again congratulating you and wishing you every good wish for all the future length of days that you may continue to be a blessing to all the people and to the Negro people in particular. We are movements as妥善 man and as a financier, I am, my dear Mr. Abbott, as always with esteem and special regard.
Yours cordially,

WANTS TO BE A MOTHER
can be remedied very easily by a good doctor. You should have a careful examination made by a competent doctor, as it is our opinion that there may be a growth that causes the pieces of flesh passing from you, and is the cause of your irregular menstruations. If there is no diseased condition of your genitalia, then attention should be given to your blood, and if he and you are free from any lustful infection a competent physician can soon get you in conditions to reproduce your kind.
We note no element in the formula you mentioned that has any bearing on regulating menstruation. It might answer the purpose for some form of gastric disturbances. And the more toxic medicine do you take, the more competent physician. You are making one mistake, we fear, and that is indulging in self-medication—taking patent medicine. Do not take medicine that some one has taken once upon a time and has been helped by. Whenever you do take medicine let it be prescribed by a competent physician. You should place yourself in the care of your family physician.
L. B. M. writes: "I have been suffering with sickness nearly four years—ever since I had the flu. I have lost weight. Before having the flu weighed 150 pounds, now weigh 129 pounds. I have dizzy spells, falling out spells, poor appetite and menstruation very poor—only a drop at a time and very pale. I also have a discharge which leaves me very weak. I have a mighty bad cold and have had it all winter. We did it, it gags and it cries, awfully hard to handle. I have been taking home remedies, but nothing seems to do me any good. What will be good for me?"
Reply: It would be good for you, first of all, to go to a good doctor and have a careful chest examination, including heart and lungs. What you call a bad cold may be consumption. Tuberculosis will make you weak; it tends to lessen menstruation and sometimes it stops menstruation entirely. It causes loss of weight, loss of appetite, cough and discharge. Our best advice to you is to see a doctor at a hospital or a good hospital for examination and diagnosis and treatment. You are wasting time fooling yourself and delaying your chance to get well by using home remedies and other remedies recommended by ignorant friends and neighbors.

notwithstanding. Mr. Darrow made a notable plea and is probably satisfied with his victory. He may have another string to his bow, but so far he has been a good marksmans. His final plea for mercy will bear lots of reading and study on the part of those who have a keen desire for blood-letting.
OPPORTUNITY'S PRIZE OFFER
WE congratulate the editor of Opportunity, on the literary
Opportunity on the market prize contest, which magazine has issued. This is a fine and ought to do much to encourage young writers to do their best. We are sorry that the conditions insist that manuscripts shall deal with some phase of our racial life. Doubless without that condition fully 90 per cent of the material submitted would have been of that character. What we need first of all is to develop men and women who can write, and write for anybody. We are naturally limited too much by our daily contacts or lack of them. Why insist on a continuance of that limitation? Doubless the editor has something pretty definite in mind for the material he expects to get. He has done a fine thing which ought to profit the whole field of writing well as our purpose group. If you don't know about the contest already be sure to write the editor of Opportunity about it. If you have any disposition to write at all here is your chance to have a tryout without cost to yourself.
ONE wing of the national Baptist convention was in session on Friday, dredges of visiting delegates swarmed all over the city. If one needed additional proof of the hold which religion and church work has upon the masses of our Race, it was to be seen. Those thousands of men and women had spent thousands and thousands of dollars in preparation and transportation in connection with this one convention. Enough money to build several churches or raise money to purchase a scale of living. How nice it would be if these good people would forego just one convention and put the money saved behind some great hospital or scientific medical project or give it for the support of a good, first-class technical school, or better still, make it possible for some first-class commercial enterprise to have at its disposal as capital? What a blessing it would be to see such vast strength and might, including also besides hymn books and sermons—as important as they are to all of us? As one looked at the delegates one could not help but realize that they were searching, perhaps unconsciously, for that indefinable something outside of themselves which will give them a richer and fuller life and some opportunity for self-expression. The church itself is good as far as it goes. But to our mind for the coming generation, it is necessary to take the practical life and needs of those it seeks to serve.

Too Weak to Hold Child?
B. L. D. writes: "I am a constant reader of your column in The Chicago Defender and derive great benefit from it. I note that you have helped so many that I decided to come to you for advice. I am a young married woman, past 22; my husband and I are very anxious for children. I have been that way two or three times, but am unfortunate in losing them at first or second mother and I are mixed. Mother–should have been around on the 25th, but did not. So I have started on the 8th, with my back aching terribly. Since starting there are pieces of blood resembling flesh passing from me. Am I too weak to hold a child? Please tell me if the following formula is all right for irregular menstruation: 1 oz. comp. essence of cardio, 2 oz. essence of pepsin, 6 oz. tinct, cardamom comp. qs.

ing event in November with confidence if the Maine election is any criterion. The party showed itself able to hold its own and come out with a decisive victory all along the line, which bodes very well for Mr. Coolidge and Mr. Dawes. Those hard-headed New Englanders will stand by Mr. Coolidge as they have stood by their congressional and electoral candidates. They may be dissatisfied with the A. L. Jackson

but, but they voted as if they thought it had the goods. For our part we are immensely pleased. Mr. LaFollette may mean all right and so may Mr. Davis, but we think that as is far as they will carry their weight. The leaders who surround them do not look like a real first class team from this side of street. And if they did not little question but that they playing rules would be radically changed for our special benefit if they were successors in the coming campaign. Here in Illinois we have a feeling that the various factions in the party will get together and make a nice, neat job of putting the Democrats where they belong—behind the scenes. Deneen is one of the best campaigners in the business. He is a big, able man and has already so standard of campaigning for the whole party that the issues rather than his individual welfare. With men of the caliber of Dawes and Deneen in the home battle we ought to have confidence in the outcome so far as the success of the Republican party is concerned in this state. If the Maine election means anything it suggests that the party has a good chance to strengthen the hands of Congress in both houses of Congress and a quietus on this bloody business which has kept the administration showing its real worth.
A T last we have a verdict in the Franks case. A few days will
remove this filthy case from the front pages of the press and relegate is to the laboratories and studies of the scientists and the parlers of the brothels, where it belongs. After a while we may get something which will give parents and teachers some new method or guide for the future, protection of children. As far as we are concerned we feel that the imposition of the death penalty would have done little good, for it would have remedied nothing. But we hope the incarceration of Loeh and his family would be unfair and the delay ought to be protected, from such, marauders and be secure in that protection, money or family
