MILNER (Associate Minister of Ravenwood Presbyterian Church) This series of articles on ministers and churches, with special reference to the license to preach but who are deficient in education and character, has brought a number of letters commending the work and making suggestions. Prominent Negro minister commends the spirit in which they are written. He says: "I think your strictures were mild and sympathetic. They were sure that well informed and impartial Colored person could complain of, although no doubt many who are the greatest offenders against propriety and deceit were not exactly that or were not written that as they needed more training shoul This minister also objects to the place "given to politics in some of the major cities should not preach at the behest of politicians and objects to the renting and use of the church auditorium for political meetings placed there by the languages of contending parties. A Colored layman writes indorsing the articles and says they are commended by his neighbors who have been involved in the war. If the editors of the Defender will get behind the movement to elevate the standards of scholarship and character of the Colored people, the leadership in the religious work among the Colored people they can accomplish epoch-making results.

Mrs. Ibel Mason, whose room is next to that of Mrs. Blakemore, was later arrested by the Stanton Ave. police and identified by Mrs. Blakemore. The police were told that Mrs. Blakemore was preparing to go on an errand and that when she opened her door to leave Mrs. Mason confined, she shoved the weapon in her face. Mrs. Blakemore retreated to her room, she said, and shut the door. Then the armed woman broke it open and shoved anything and Mrs. Blakemore ran to a window and leaped out. According to the latter's husband, Ben Blakemore, robbery is believed to have taken place. He played. He said that he told his wife that morning to go to the bank and he believes, that the Mason couple in the next room heard him laugh and thought he had some money in his flat. pose of helping men in the ministry who feel their deficiency as to education themselves. Some of these schools are worthy of special notice. During the summer of 1923 the Edward M. college, college of the Episcopal Episcopal school, Jacksonville, Fla., furnished a striking illustration of a successful venture of this kind. Bishop John Hurst in the college, Episcopal school of the college. It is reported that the bishop gave an invitation to the ministers of the conference to which that was not exactly an order, but a strong invitation that men who needed more training should come for four weeks of intensive study. President John C. Wright says that the students came from every part of Florida, from country and city, from the military and from missions. They came with euphonious degrees and unable to properly read a verse of scripture, but they were serving and had come for more training and new inspiration for their high calling". The 260 students were under a sort of military training program in battalions to their recitations. There were lectures and recitations in a great variety of studies intensely focused on devotional meetings with soul-string songs. Every problem connected with church work and life was discussed. In the afternoons the students there were games and recreations. The bishop told them to "take off their long coats and play ball, throw horseshoes, play croquet, run, jump red-blooded sport." It is evident from many reports that these men had the greatest fourteen years of experience, the least known with new light and new purposes of Christian consecration. Dr. Wright says if such schools were multiplied with the legal knowledge, superstition and blind leadership would disappear from the most powerful organization of Negroes in the country. We will have more about the signs of progress. POLICE TAKE 17-YEAR-OLD GIRL IN RAID Said She Was 'Roping' Some Business Sergt.

"I tell you that every intelligent Negro is going to vote for Coolidge." The disfranchisement plank in the 1920s called for "believing that the extension of the elective franchise to a race inferior in intelligence and without preparation for the wise and prudent exercise of a privilege so vital to the welfare of the nation, to a mistake, if not a crime, committed by the Republican party during the reign of passion and prejudice following the Civil war, for political endearments purposes, we declare the monarchy the most appropriate for amending the Constitution so as to preserve the purity of the bolat and the electorate of the state from the evil results of conferring such power to the electorate, we are unfit to appreciate its importance as it affects the stability and preservation of good government."

"This pain and misery every month had a weakening effect on me and I would have to go to bed and stay there for several days. When I would get up I didn't feel like anything and would just drag around the house.

He told little Paul that when people came there it was a sign that they had "let Nature take its course." He told it that the older it still, made him shudder when he heard of anyone "letting Nature take its course." It may be all right to trust in Nature taking the proper course in some cases, and it is not anything like that in Nature taking the proper course in cases of so-called "female trouble." But it is certainly far from advisable in the light of what we know now concerning the cause of these peculiar alliments, which have been definitely proven that at least nine out of ten cases of those common disorders of women, such as headaches, backaches, pains, in the sides, back and limbs, irregularity, numbness, numbness, cramping, faintning spells, dizziness and that awful run-down and worn-out feeling of anxiety and fear are caused by one dreaded malady, the Forsyth-Oryx or the terrible disease never "works itself out" of the system of its victim, but continues to grow and spread until the proper steps are taken to overcome and stump it out. The fact is what led the discoverers of the now famous St. Joseph's G. F. P. to make their medicine what is believed to be the first direct specimen in cases of the awful enemy of women—Catarrh. The tremendous advantage which G. F. P. seems to be enjoying over every other known method of treating those common ailments of women is the incredible power to overcome and stun out this terrible disease. Nothing which did not have extraordinary merit could ever hope to equal the power of over a million bottles achieved by St. Joseph's G. F. P. in the few months since it was first introduced to our audience. And this phenomenal medicine is growing greater and greater every day as the news of its wonderful power is spread by grateful patients, sickly, but who now are glowing with health and filled with ambition, strength, energy and youthful buoyancy.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1924 FAULT WOMEN TROUBLE That of Famous Doctor, Women How to Regainility and Keep It—Thou- Our Group Are Now Prov- the Miraculous Results A healthy mind in a healthy body was considered by the ancients the greatest gift of the gods. Certainly these two great qualities are no less esteemed today. Thus equipped it is much easier for men and women to climb the ladder of success; unfortunate, indeed, is the man or woman who is very far lacking in either of these gifts. The human brain is still a great mystery, but this wonderful body of ours is becoming better understood as modern discovery and progress reveals more and more hidden knowledge concerning its workings. The body of man is noted for its strength; the body of woman for its delicacy. Woman is man perfected. She is more delicately modeled; the adjustments of her nature are more sensitive and more easily disturbed. Her entire system is in closest sympathy, one organ with another. Every one of our women know how the derangements of one part of her system often sets her whole body to throbbing with pain. All of these things make it of the highest importance for our women to know and use every means to protect their precious bodies. A famous doctor once laid down four great rules for woman's health, which if followed cannot fail to lead women away from pain and suffering and into the ways of health and happiness. He says, "Women should develop habits of early retiring and rising; they should get plenty, but not too much, exercise, part of it out of doors; they should cold hats regularly and warm baths occasionally, and they should never, by any means, arise from the table that has overeaten. On these for four rules hang all the laws of health." All of these rules were laid down some fifty years ago. Perhaps it was easier for women to follow them, not allow women to care for themselves as they should. Nowadays overexertion in badly heated or ventilated rooms is frequently followed by which results in checking the perspiration and serious colds are the result. "These seemingly unimportant colds are women's most dangerous enemy," says the representative of the discoveries, who said the colds so frequently lead to Catarrh of the Female Organs, that dreaded malady which has now been proven to be the direct cause of at least a quarter of all women, and distressing ailments so common among our women and girls, such as headaches, backaches, pains in the back, sides and limbs, irregular, nervousness, nausea, cramping, fainting spells, dizziness, hot and cold sweats, kidney, liver and bladder trouble." Thousands of our women, who suffered from these distressing symptoms of Catarrh are now finding the use of St. Joseph's G. F. P., the wonderful medicine which is doing so much to release our women and girls from the pain, weakness and misery of Catarrh, and helps by nothing is more or less than Catarrh. Every day as St. Joseph's G. F. P. goes sweeping along on its wave of success and popularity, more and more of our women are discovering that this power will variably follow its consistent use, even in cases of longest standing. The enthusiastic and grateful words of thousands of these beaming, happy women are discovering of a doubt what a tremendous power this great medicine has over Catarrh of the Female Organs, and how quickly it assists all the more important female forms, thus restoring energy, vitality and youthful buoyancy to our weak, thin and undernourished women. If your druggist hasn't got St. Joseph's G. F. P. set aside for these vital charge charges to Battler's Pharmacy, Memphis, Tenn. for a bottle. depend on CASCARETS 10 SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4. 1924 NUMBER 13 IS UNLUCKY FOR MR.

Ku Klux Klan Holds on to Democrats Kansas City, Mo.—In what was regarded as a direct answer from the Ku Klux Klan, on the Ku Klux Klan, which had been made by John W. Davis, Democratic candidate for president, Impeachment in 1968, it is called the second annual klonovation of the Klan, a national meeting, gave out a statement which included the following: "We are in all parties for any party to read members of the Ku Klux Klan out. Evans laid particular stress on the fact that American citizens are in each party, according to their individual desires, and that the talk of disowning Klan support is all his complete statement follows: "The organization known as the Ku Klux Klan is in politics; neither is it a political party.

These two parties are the most powerful and most pressing of public opinion with regard to approving or disapproving administration policy of the party in power. Klux Klan, as individual citizens, naturally belong to one or the other of these great parties. We find ourselves now and ever read about and work with any American citizen or group of citizens whose purpose is to make of this a more enlightened, a more prosperous and a more homogeneous nation." We will permit no political party and no group of politicians to annex DISCOVERY WORLD. We conserve conscience as we will be found, regardless of who we find in the different political camps." 10-YEAR-OLD BOY IS FOUND DEAD IN BED Willie Edward Jones, 10 years old, son of Edwin Jones, 40.

AIRMEN LAND ON FLORAL CARPET THE FARMER'S WEEKLY NEWS Santa Monica, Calif., Oct. 3—Thirty truckloads of blossoms were spread here as a "flower bed of ease" for the landing of the history making U.

The blanket of California flowers were contributed by individuals and civic bodies of all nationalities and in place by Boy Scouts. Thousands of our Race were present to give welcome to the daring airmen. William H. Lewis Making Big Mistake, Declares Noted Writer I would like to ask Mr. Lewis what has the Democratic party done to enforce the fourteenth amendment? The Dyer anti-lynching bill is an amendment, fourteenth amendment, as well as the whole Constitution but hollow mockery and a mere scrap of paper? The Dyer anti-lynching bill is an amendment. The bill was introduced by a Republican and the greatest fight for its passage was made by Republicans. The dastardly effort of the Democratic party to defeat this bill was as well as cowardly notes that has ever taken place on the floor of Congress. Shortly after reconstruction it was the Democratic party Ku Klux Klan which terrorized and kept Negroes from the polls. Party Aided Lewis The political prestige that was once enjoyed by William H. Lewis was attained through the Republican party. It was this party that honored the real offices held by a Negro, that of assistant attorney general. Expressed Roosevelt appointed him assistant. United States attorney George H. Buchanan chose chusets and other honors have come to him from the Republican party. I cannot understand (and neither can Mr. Lewis) why any student of the Constitution should crises in its career to support a man like John W. Davis against Calvin Coolidge. The election of Davis would mean conditions worse than those under the Wilson regime, or he would blot upon the name of this country. Coolidge has proved his friendship with the Negro, and no one who has occupied the president's chair has more than he. His attitude towards more than he. His attitude towards the civil rights of the Negro in America was well expressed in his letter relative to Dr. Charles H. Congress on the Republican ticket. He showed his courage in pressing the confirmation of Mr. Cohen before the Senate for collector of the Negro in line with the policy of the Republican party in signing with Colored office holders of the South. Among other things he has done in the appointment of a commission of Colored men to investigate conditions in the Virgin islands, which is a political recognition of far-reaching the progress of the Negro in the sea which have been read before various Colored gatherings have shown deep concern for the rights and citizens of Colored people. The matter even safe under President Coolidge: it would not be under John W. Davis. The selection of Davis came about in disarray of discord and not because of a special din as Mr. Lewis seems to think.

Making Big es Noted Writer harmonious conventions ever held in America. The Republican national convention was united on Coolidge. They knew he represented a standard hearer that would inspire the concession that the nation brought to the election and proximity to the nation. The advice of William H. Lewis will be resented by every American who advises does not show sound and safe leadership, and hold out very little hope and inspiration to the nation. The Race is a step backward and if accepted will throw the Race back 50 years in its political, social, real and untimely and unwarranted advice of William H. Lewis is a tragedy. POLITICAL SKIES CLEARING The Republican political skies are rapidly clearing. Everybody seems to be settling down to work and whatever there might have been in the past has been put into the discard and the new guard and the old guard are working hand in hand to bring ultimate success to the ticket headed by Vice President of Massachusetts by Charles G. Dawson of the grand old state of Illinois. This situation will doubtless continue to the satisfaction of all concerned and do much to contribute to the satisfaction of the national Republican ticket. Already the signs are pointing to the waning of the early discontent which must be admitted had made considerable lure on the former loyalty of the Republicans to do so in the West. In particular there seems to be a general inclination to return to the old moorings.

It is conceded on all sides that Matthews is a good choice for the president, but he is favored. He is able, well educated and an eminent member of the Massachusetts bar.

Dawes" outspoken condemnation of the Ku Klux Klan and president Coolidge's indemnation of him, "done a great deal to warm the political cockles of the Colored voters' hearts. Current comment gives condescension to the Colored people of the Colored people on this momentous question have been allayed by the clear opposition to the Klan movement presented by both the Ku Klux Klan and the monomial nomination of the Republican party. It must be conceded that the bogey came very near dropping the fat in the fire. But the fine African American somehow been working to good effect and the "blazing cross" of the hooded knights no longer disturbs the Republican dreams of the Colored people. Here in Illinois things appear to be working better. The local situation has been clarified by the coming together of all the blacks who are very fair indicative that the Republican state ticket will be elected and that former Governor Charles S. Deneen will be chosen the entire Cook county Republican ticket will be successfully elected. The political skies are surely clearing.

C.—We have every reason to feel that Coulde's chances in November are good and we believe that we can win. We have a congress, Senator Porter H. Dale, Vermont, told reporters after an interview with the president Monday. Senator Dale is head of the foreign affairs committee of the national committee, a bureau somewhat similar to that headed by William C. Matthews to direct activities among members of the Fluor. Senator Dale said further, "that I was surprised at the extent to which these large numbers of comparatively new voters have informed themselves of the issues more than anything else has taught them the importance of American principles and danger of foreign concepts of government. They have seen more than anything else has taught them the importance of government. They do not want them here Of course, the uninformed among them vote for the most significant ticket, the most important safety, and that means Coolde.

It cannot vote for any Ballot by Statea It will ballot by states. Each state delegation will have one vote, making the whole number of votes in the race. Two presidents in our history have been chosen in the House of Representatives. No vice president has ever been chosen in the Senate. The vice president has never been chosen in the Representatives, trying to choose between Coolidge, Davis and La Follette, remains deadlocked, and if the Senate succeeds, then that vice president will be a vice president for just about one minute, says a political expert. "The Democrats in the House have been elected," he says, "the Republicans" he affirms. "Let Davis carry no state outside the Solid South, let him be defended in every state," he says, "lying in the House of Representatives he might be—and the chances are that he would be—elected president by the present House, if that only way to escape from Bryan."

Since the whole number of votes in candidate must get at least 25 votes, La Follette's Chance La Follette in the House cannot get a majority. The only vote which he can surely control will be the vote of the Republicans, and the control also the vote of North Dakota. This will leave 46 votes to be divided between Coolidge and Davis. Five of these votes are evenly divided between Coolidge and Davis, seven divided between Democrats and Republicans. These five states plus La Follette's two states produce a total of seven states neutralized the contest between Coolidge and Davis. Forty-one states are left to determine that contest. The determinations of 21 of them contain a Republican majority. The determinations of 20 of them contain a Democratic majority.

It is said that chaos would result in Washington is that such would not be the case. The supreme court. It is believed, would the constitution sufficiently fire the law question who should succeed to the presidency and act as president until a new election could be held. In any case that constitutional crisis does not seem likely to happen. WHITE STUDENT IS CAUGHT WITH GIRL Raleigh, N. C., Oct. 3—P. H.

Edmonds of Norfolk is entitled to is sympathy, is the opinion of the special court of appeals of Virginia, which on Sept. 25 affirmed the judgment of the corporation court of the city holding him for Bessie C. Edmonds, had a right to elect him from a room in a two-family apartment house erected by him on a lot of ground which she was the owner by gift from him. In giving its decision, the appeal court declared it was a novel one in jurisprudence. Eleven years ago Edmons built the apartment house and one of the two apartments was occupied by himself and wife and young on for nine years. In September, 1922, Mrs. Edmons, according to the records in the case, left her husband, and she would never return to him. On the other hand, Edmons was said to be willing and anxious for reconciliation. In November, she in her attire container to recover possession of one room in the house which he had continued to occupy, being already in the apartment and collecting renting. When decision was given in her favor in the lower court, Edmons appealed. In upholding this judgment, Mrs. Edmons any understanding that Edmons may have had with his wife as to occupancy of the premises was too vague and finite to constitute a contract. "He should have reduced its thoughts and intentions in the material world," he said, "and had the power to do so," the court added, "and appears now without legal rights and without having established a claim to avail him anything except sympathy."

The future of our church is in the country. We are marching side by side with every race and tongue and creed that enters in American nation. We may be, it is but a shallow implication of what we shall be in the future if we hold steadfast to certain principles in our faith in the justice of our God.

Flowers were plined on many of the soldiers and when headquarters were reached a volley of invitations greeted them to enjoy the celebration. All colors blended on the boulevards. Dark men strolled arm in arm with Irish beauties and were their guests at opera and theater and counted thousands of them. Fashionable resorts threw open their doors to entertain the men who had done honor to France to demonstrate that American tourists and other propagandists had not taken root. Several American tourists vacated cafes when the Africans and Moroccanus in accompanied by French beauties. Statistics show that several mariners have been contracted between the Germans and the soldiers said to be the result of long correspondence carried on while the soldiers were in the Ruhr district. It is also noted that the Germans numbered among their troops several marinages with German women. Officals in charge of the Ruhr invasion state that the Germans have often woken them to their homes and gave entertainments for large numbers of them. This is contrary to the German interest in newspapers published in Paris in American interests who, it is said, sought to brand the soldiers as a "pistolist" to further German promemoration. Chas. B.

The largest university in the United States for our people is Howard University, at Washington, D. C. It is a university that provides opportunities, under the jurisdiction of the department of the interior, and is a credit to our government. Toward it the ambitions student has come to believe that education that will enable him to take his place in the learned professions. It is this institution of learning that is the members of both the 67th and 68th congresses to cripple. They did this by attempting first to eliminate and then to reduce the government appropriations officials had requested. In the 65th congress, the attempt was successful in the house, where the appropriation was made upon a point under made by a Democrat. The Republicans in the senate, however, restored the appropriation over the opposition of the Democratic senator, Bennie H. Ack, and was provided $40,000 for Howard university—the largest appropriation it had ever received. REBECCA AUSTIN DIES Saratoga, Ark. Oct. 3—Mrs. Rebecca Martin, age 40, filled here, Sept. 12.

State St. called before Judge Howard Hayes in the municipal court, it appeared that Williams was charged with running a barber shop without a license. Attorney Westbrooks stated to the court that the city ordinance which requires barbers to obtain a license was void and that hundreds of barber shops were operating without regard for the ordinance. Mr. Westbrooks' contention was sustained by a recent Supreme court decision that required retail drug stores to obtain a license, was declared void by the Supreme court. Owing to the crowded condition of the district set for Oct. 6, at the time the matter will be argued and disposed of. This ordinance effects all barber shops and Westbrooks contended that the city had no power to require licenses from barber shops, as the barbers received their license and that the city has no jurisdiction whatever to require an additional license.

This production is directed by the Micheaux and it features Evelyn Preer and J. Hawkins, and should also feature S. T. Whitney, who is well known as a soothsayer and actor. This is one of the best productions that I have had the pleasure of watching that was made by Mr. Micheaux. In D. Ireland Thomas JOHN B.

Of course I expected good acting from such artists but I was not. I was Tatum and the others. It is really a pleasure to look at such a bunch of Race artists do their stuff and do it. I am not sure that that is why the photography could have been much better in many of the scenes, but this wag not the fault of the actors.

Dear Mr. Langston, Just received a Defender, the first since we left Chicago, Sept. 13. My how happy we were! It was very much shocked to read of George Platt's death. Platt was a friend of mine, and he could always be with me, and we would meet acutely at all times, and fought for many rights on the show that would have been denied us only because of our illness, which we all will remember, I could always bet on Platt. I can truthfully say I was more than shocked to learn about my family, and I corresponded with him since our show closed, April 25, but have often thought of my body as we called each other, and I have a pathy to his family as an old friend. These things are always shocking, although we know they are to happen. She knew Platt several years, and says she never met a more gentlemanly person in her life. Platt was different, liked and respected him. This leaves us in North Dakota. We play Jamestown and Billings, Mont., week of Sept. 23.

Rec DAVE AND TRESSIE Famous Dancing Pair Are Hits on All Bills Dave and Tressle have been shifted on the Keith Bills in the East so much that they have been covered by them. They are now used in fourth on the five-act line-up and are headlined in display ads all over the course. Here is what the New Bedford (Mass.) Times said of them last week: "Dave and Tressle are two Colored Men who have been seen to enjoy it as much as does the audience. They scored a tremendous hit and it was well deserved. The man covered the dance himself to death for a little aplause and for the thunder that greets his efforts; he turns out limitless and soldiers on parade. Houdini gestures out of a straight jacket, and as he says, 'never missing a tap.' He doesn't cease to dance and vary instruments in the orchestra to which it up.

Ryan led off with a clean single; Briggs bunted to Henry and pitcher hit a home run. Pitcher pitcher hit a home run. First, Ryan scoring, but Briggs was trapped between third and home run. Warfield also laid down a play of the game in the fifth inning, the grabbed Dixon's wicked grass cutter. Charleston played a faultless game at Harrison, with any of Ryan's benders for a safety.

MOORE BESTS BLACKBURN Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept. 26 — Jimmy Moore, returned yesterday from a trip to the United States, further laurals by defeating Young Jack Blackburn, in a spirited contest of 10 games. Moore handled Benny Soff, the Russian welterweight champion at a tournament of Biddy Bishop, manager for Moore and Moore has been matched for another contest at Lexington some time early, probably with Rattlesnake Williams. On my last trip east to attend the Firpo-Wills affair I was one of the guests. I met a party from New York to Philadelphia to witness the Renault-Golf scrap kit There was a crowd of over 30,000 watching a mixed contest. There were plenty of ladies, it was only too early to know which one were in such bad favor in this same Philadelphia. It makes the old heads think. The change did not only come from the audience, it also changed in the theatrical ranks. Back in 1905, from the outlook, it looked like the boxer and the rider, the showman of the big newspaper writers wrote them out of the game. And they had Andy Hamilton, Willie Sims, the Clayton boys, Supe Perkins and others, almost spelled the end of jockeys, because we have come back stronger than any—yet the theatrical end has made wonderful strides in the last THE KANSAS CITY MONARCHS Wilberforce Basket Men Start Work in October Wilberforce.

Today our boxers are men of high intelligence. They did this writer think he would ever sit in a multitude when the men were boxing and the majority judging or the black man to win. The boxing was big, big big thing the boxer must not overlook, that it was George Moore of Portland, Ore., that knocked down the color barrier in boxing, and good spots, Philadelphia. The Race boxers were in good in Massachusetts and New York, and they had good spots, New York and Philadelphia, were barred from mixed bouts by the boxing commissioners, who seemed to have more power than the boxer. Wm. Muldoon successfully, then turned to Philadelphia. He won the battle there by having Chas. Fred White appointed the boxing commission. Things have changed in the east. Changing the conversation, which is always agreeable to our boys, as to race drivers the writer never had, is that human endurance—but I had to take a back seat after reviewing the races at the Hawthorne race track. The Frank Young, the sporting editor of the Chicago Defender, who made the show a success with his life at stake. This writer has never seen a Spanish boy on death and blood. Well, these boys pulled that and some more. It was a show that had thrills from the beginning to the end—two men were killed and two were taken—that had no hearing—it was a case of go on with the race. It was here end there, somebody running into the arena, taken in the ambulance with a smile. Some of the old timers remarked it was a good thing the race was not over 40 miles more or nobody would have pennants to repair the fences. If there was any doubt of the gameness of our boys, one should have witnessed this race. It would have convinced him that the black man has the nerve of a lion. The Patrese loss lost one of its biggest thrills by not making a moving picture of the event. Every driver would have to die." Anyway, they tore Hawthorne race track all to pieces. Their next meet will pull one of the largest crowds since the American derby. They are auto desperados of high order. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER SWING CHAMPIONS son, outfield; C. Bell, pitcher; Q.

The Giants stalled for darkness, and as they did, the visitors kept piling up runs until the Giants hopelessly defeated, the Giants battled in their half, but the plucky Mendez caused Harris to force Bobby Peterson with the hues full. It was almost dark enough by that time to light a lantern to see. The hoodium element endangered the lives of several women and the park management is seriously considering the discontinuance. Now, while we are on the conduct of some of the men we will take a whack at some of the uncoach, use women patrons, especially the loud-mouthed sister in section D of the stands in left field.

Others charge it to the race problem which they regard as too vexing and complicated to admit of any solution. We do not think this is true. We firmly believe that this is just a case of meeting a situation Which is difficult, it is true, but which fair treatment and a little courage will solve. Gangs and their doings are matters which concern three elements—parents, teachers and truant officers. Where parents have had Uttle or no opportunity for education them- selves there is an additional responsibility placed upon the teachers. In this particular school where the. stabbing occurred and in many like it the children are left to their own devices on account of the neces- sity of both parents going out to work for the support of the family. ‘The mother com- plains of the fact that her boy was chased home by some white boys from the school and the windows of her house broken out with stones by these same boys. This trag- edy was the finale of a series of fights and disputes which had gone before it. Nowadays it is considered proper to teach kindness and consideration for all kinds of animals. They are learning how to do this even in Alabama and Mississippi. Why not apply that to human beings in Chicago? The majority of the teachers of this school where this tragedy occurred were white. Most of them know litde or nothing about the chil~ dren or families of our Race. They were educated in schools where our people do not attend—many of them in parochial schools. Our children mean nothing to them unless it be a problem which they detest and avoid. ‘They have little or no sympathy for their aspriations or handicaps, for they have no background based on normal contacts in their own youth or present day mode of life upon which to approach these youngsters a= a means of winning their’ confidence and respect. They base whatever discipline they exercise upon fear and punishment when, as all of us know, it should be based upon confi- dence and respect. Every teacher who is as- signed to a mixed school should be selected because of her experience and knowlédge of the people who live in that community. That experience should have come from his or her own school life, where they were accustomed to going to school with members of both races. They ought to have a knowledge and appreciation of our Race artists and writers. They ought to know some of our leading business and professional men personally. And above all they should have confidence and belief in our ability and future possibili- ties. Any intelligent far-seeing school super- intendent if he tried could secure such teach- ers fer these schools and assign them ac- cordingly. Automatically any white boy or girl in their classes would absorb from the manners and conduct of their teachers an attitude which would keep an ordinary scrap between children from developing into a race clash. When difficulties arise the parents would go all the way with the school teachers be- cause they would know that they were fair and unprejudiced. There would be a better understanding all round. May be the old- fashioned strap would be more in vogue and there would be a correspondingly less use of kmives and stones for the arbitration of dis- putes. Gradually we would develop families among our white neighbors who would understand the necessity for curbing the passions and hatreds of their children for the children of other races. Our schools would become centers of learning instead of head- quarters for gangs and tinder boxes for riots. The American system of mixed schools with mixed teaching staffs is the only solution when those teachers are properly chosen, trained and led. Jim Crow schools breed misunderstanding and ignorance and have no place in our American life. a al ra ae The decision of the Scottish Rite Masons of the Northern jurisdletion to recognize and co-operate with the Masons of our Race ought to mark a great ad- Nance in helping develop better understanding, and nore friendly attitude between both races.

New York Democrats brought up a smart rear in denouncing the Klan by name, but New York Republicans ted the assault by A full day. ‘The Klan. a hooded ignorance, keeps the politicians on tip toe while It takes care of the suck- ers.

It fs Republican where Republicans have the upper hand, Democratic where Democrats carry on thelr kind of government, and betwixt and between where it pays to keen the middle of the road. It came at a good time. It affords the test that had to come—the test between government by law and government by fraud. For 40 years it has carried on @ government by fraud. The war got between it and ite designs. Afcer the war it widened out. Its klowns and Kleagles are in silent agreement that It covered too much territory. Its days are numbered. If the Ku Klux Klan can drive the Race out of a political party in which 1s found the Race's only strength and prestige aa citizens, one of its objects will have been achieved.

In his world review, famous as “The Week,” Simmons did not overlook “Uncle” Jaggers. He Wanted te know what kind of a funeral would white South Carolinians give Bishop Chappelle when his time came to say adieu, ‘Many of the Southern papers are full of brag about the honor paid the aged servant of the Cross, The Tampa Tribune hus this to say: “Yet some Northern papers are still so fgnorant or unfalr ag to assert that the Negro Is without friends in the South: that the South habitually mistreats him, re. him Just credit where it is deserved, re- xards him as a lower animal, unworthy of help and Sneonrnzeisent Papers North that so assert are neither unfa.r nor isnorant, ‘They are uequainted with conditions und Yoldly tel the truth. Fewer Northern papers than formerly are now Aisposed to describe conditions as they are in the South. The good naine of the watton has heen ruined hy the South and merciful editors are willing 2 cover up the shame and dirt af the lawless section of our country to save our reputa- ulon. South Carolina mourned “Uncle Jaggers,” kind soul that he was, becauss he went around with his hat In his hand crying, "Low fs the way." There {s no rec- end that moursing avertook South Carolina when x prosperous, rave, self-respecting member of the Race met @eath in the streets af Abheviile a few pears Ick for tk. erie of having succeeded and Weing well dressed. “Unele Jaggers” didn't talk against the Jim Crow car. Te was silent on separate schools. He thought the robbery of the Race of its franchise all right and spent his indignation in praise of the Lord. South Carolina did well to honor “Uncle Jaggers.”| It will do better when it comes under the law and repents of Mix numberlest inexeusable crimes against an Inot- fensive Race and allows freedom of the press, free- dom of speech and the children of “Uncle Jassers'” Race in that state the sane rights at home that they ‘enjoy above the Potomac.

So often we note that children upon entering School need dental treatment. This fy not always due to the fact that the teeth have not been kept clean, but to-a large extent It ts due to the incorrect diet of the mother daring the pre-natal perfod—becauso the teeth start to develop as early as the fifth week of foetal Iife and continue to develop until birth.

If the first teeth are al- towed to decay and become ab- Scessed the parmanent teeth are xure to he damaged. And for this Feason we would urge parents to take their children regularly to the den- Ust_s0 as to keep the first teeth under close observation. Never lose sight of this fact, that the most important period In a child's life is the ficst 12 years. The growth and development up to the twelfth year is very rapid, and that fs the foundation on which we ex- Peet to bulld the man or woman. Without “good, sound teeth we can- not expect to build a good. solid foundation. Whenever a cavity ap- ‘pears it helps to destroy the masti- eating power of the child, and if the cavity is not filled it is not long be- fore the tooth Is lost. Unless the food is well masticated we cannot expect to build a healthy child. It fs cruelty to permit the teeth of your child to decay—to neglect the baby teeth that show decay merely be- cause the teeth are only temporary. Remember this—to your child. its temporary teeth are just as impor- tant as the permanent teeth are to the adult. “Nearly all the trouble Reople have with thelr teeth in adult fe Is due to neglect of the first teeth, Decay occurs more rapidly in the first set of teeth than in the second set. as nature does not seem to make the first set of teeth of as good material as the second set. This is due, probably, to the fact that the growing child needs more lime when the bones are growing and the sec fond set of teeth are forming: there- fore the first teeth do not have the resistance to fight decay. How te Fight Decay ‘The best way to combat decay is to ee that the child has plenty of tooth-building food, and to see that the mouth is kept clean.
