"This is a white prefect, and no Negro has a right to serve." She told Schneider that she did not make the selection of the judges and the commissioners to make any changes. With composure she stood her ground and won out, but the registration of the voters was delayed three and a half hours, because the board of commissioners arrived on the scene and appointed enough substitutes for the striking officials to permit the registration to begin. The commissioners arrived, all the officials except Schneider, who had ordered Mrs. Walton out when he arrived and found her in the pulldown place, agreed to change their minds, then later changed their minds.
Insults Ignored
Intimidating tactics were induced by the white officials to embarrass and scare Mrs. Walton from her post as mayor of the city, and elect authorities, but she refused to be insulted or frightened.
Members of the Race throughout the city are wrought up over the unpleasant experience Mrs. Walton had with the police, her rights as an American citizen.

A Frank Discussion of Present Day Problems of Christianity and People
By REV. DR. DUNCAN C. 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. He also says such results must be accompanied by sympathy to the leaders of the black Race and the earnest co-operation of all of us who are identified with the problem of educated leadership for the gen-

WOMAN LEAPS FROM WINDOW TO EVADE GUN
Mrs. Anna Blakemore, 38, 3335 Indiana Ave. is confined at Provident hospital with injuries received when she jumped from the window of her apartment on the second floor after a woman armed with a revolver had forced her way into Mrs. Blakemore's room. 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.

The police turned the girl over to the juvenile authorities, who aided the state in the prosecution of Mrs. Dawson when she appeared Friday in morals court. After hearing the case, the judge discharged Miss Jones, fined Miss Goodwin $5 and continued the case against Mrs. Dawson to Oct. 3.

PASTOR SAYS DAVISHELPED SEGREGATION
Blames Candidate for Laws in State
Direct connection of John W. Davis, who is seeking to lead the Colored vote into the Democratic party, with a plank in the West Virginia state platform in 1985 directly disfranchising Negroes, has been charged by a Negro preacher and political leader, according to a dispatch in the New York Herald-Mail Sept. 17. The dispatch is headed:

CANDIDATE DAVIS
Negro Pastor in West Virginia Charges He and His Father Championed Plank to Disfranchise Race in 1908 The special dispatch then follows:

Davis, who, he said, in that year, was a conservative candidate, Charleston, South Carolina, and put through a plank in the Democratic, state platform as the first step and an attempt to provide "Jim Crow" cars on the railroads.

It is a great opportunity," Negro voters a barrel of sugar with arsenic at the bottom, with the realization that they probably will not arsenic until after the election.
"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."

ONE LITTLE FAULT CAUSES OUR WOMEN NO END OF TROUBLE
Well-Known Authority Adds One Rule to That of Famous Doctor, Which Shows Pale, Sickly and Nervous Women How to Regain Robust, Glowing Health, Energy and Vitality and Keep It—Thousands of Beaming and Happy Women in Our Group Are Now Proving Correctness of This Theory Through the Miraculous Results Gotten by Using St. Joseph's G. F. P.
THIS LITTLE ROCK WOMAN DON'T HAVE CRAMPING SPELLS NOW, SHE IS USING G. F. P.
RUIE

Women Now Depend on St. Joseph's G.F.P. To Restore Their Vitality
"I suffered from irregularity and would cramp and have terrible headaches every time during my —" says Mrs. Rule McFadden, the well known woman of our group, who lives at 1705 Wolf St., Little Rock, Ark. "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.
"I had tried so many medicines and treatments which didn't do me any good that I decided I would quit taking medicine and get along the best way I could. Then a friend of mine kept after me to try'G. F. P. as this wonderful medicine is doing her so much good. Finally, just to satisfy her and stop her from nagging me to take G. F. P. I took a couple of doses. These two doses convinced me G. F. P. was just what I needed, so I kept right on taking this great medicine.
"I am now on my fourth bottle of G. F. P. and am just as strong and well as anyone. never have bitten me during time with me and just as regular as clockwork. My experience with G. F. P. has been so wonderful that I want all our women to know about this splendid medi-
One of the most pathetic figures in all of Dickens' stories is the little turtle taker. 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. If your drugsist hasn't got St. Joseph's G. F. P. send $1.00 and $25 extra to cover postage charges to Cattley's pharmacy, Memphis, Tenn.

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.

NUMBER 13 IS UNLUCKY FOR MR. PETILLIER
He Gets 13 Years to Think It Over
Philadelphia, Oct. 2.—What proved to be an unlucky shooting by Foster Petitler, 24, of N. 11th St., on April 13 last during a party at 1313 Myrtle St., resulted recently in his receiving a sentence of not less than 13 years or more than 20 years in the Eastern penitentiary from Judge McDevitt in quarterly session court after pleading guilty to second枪弹罪.
"Are you superstitious of the number 13" asked Judge McDevitt.
"No, sir," replied Petitler.
"Well," said Judge McDevitt, "you can serve 13 years in the penitentiary. The sentence of the court is not less than 13 nor more than 20 years."
On the night of April 13, Petitler shot and killed Milton Jackson, 21, of Mutchinson St., during an altercation while a party was in progress at the Myrtle St. house.
The sentence imposed on Petitler by Judge McDevitt is contrary to the provision of the Ludlow act, which specifies a sentence for second degree murder of not less than 10 years nor more than 20 years in prison. Judge McDevitt recently filed an opinion declaring the Ludlow act "unless the word of his name is more than 13 nor more than 20 years in the penitentiary imposed on Joseph Sweeney was appealed to the supreme court.

William H. Lewis Making Big Mistake, Declares Noted Writer
By CLEVELAND G. ALLEN
The recent declaration of Hon. William H. Lewis, former assistant United States attorney general, that he had boiled the Republican party to join the ranks of the Democrats and to support John W. Davis in the present campaign is, to say the least, a tragedy. It is a tragedy because it is bound to react and mean the political death and influence of Lewis as a once national character and leader.
To go over to the ranks of an avowed enemy and persuade others to sacrifice their social, political, economic and educational opportunities is little short of insanity. Yet this is what Lewis has done. He is asking the Negro to further disfranchise himself, to accept an inferior place such as is brought about by segregation and Jim Crowson. He is giving his approval to the peonage system of the South and to lynching which is being fostered today by the party that Lewis is asking the Race to support.
He is asking the Negro to support a party that has brought segregation right to the doors of the federal departments in Washington and has brought about conditions akin to those of slavery. He is asking his race to support in this campaign a party that has stripped it of every vestige of political power and is making an effort to further reduce it to serfdom. In telling why he left the Republican party Mr. Lewis is quoted as saying: "It has been more than a half century since the fourteenth amendment to the Constitution was ratified and for that length of time we have been voting like sheep for the Republican party in failure and success."
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. He was named in one of the most in-

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.
What threatened to be a slight-mid-up has been settled by the appointment of Clarence Matthews as a joint-of-the-Republic, campaign end of the Republican campaign, who will be assisted at Chicago and New York, as has already been announced, by a goodwill number of the United States and the United States all the departments of the Union. In the West, William T. Francis, under the known legal light from their otherللطفار of the United States, has assisted by Liet. George, Lee, Col. Roscoe Simmons is officiating as director of speakers and publicity. Among the most important, Secretary of Miss Matthews's secretary to St. Louis is in the Homer Phillips of St. Louis. For more, Miss Hallie Q. Brown, former president of the National Assoclation of the Women's Association has general charge of work among Colored women. Mrs. Myrtle Foster Cooke of Kansas City, is her assistant in Chicago, while in the Eastover City, and in the New Magnolia City, is the first-generation Learner, Long Island, and Miss Jeanette Carter of Washington, D.C., are officially active. In New York, the state has been held in the city of Irishlinia, who recently served as secretary of the Virgin Islands commission, is chairman of Fred R. Moore of the New York Age, is organizer of the George Hortons of the News is an publicity.
The Emett J. Scott of Washington, Robert L. Vann of Pittsburgh and R. R. Church of the National Association for the National board of strategy. National al Committeeen Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia and Perry W. Howard of Mississippi are serving as applied for the office of the member of the important engagements.
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. La Folete distrubed the Colored political waters and the stream of political dissent in the country tremely muddy for a brief while.

Charles G. 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.

Foreign Language Voters for President Coolidge
Washington, D. 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 was the Reds among the naturalized citizen in New York," said Madison Square Garden in New York. Everything was there but the red flag. But as the Reds have been cornered the Smiths will support Couldee even if Al Smith runs for governor."

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

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. The Republicans to stay away from the House in order to help Davis—and in getting Democrats to stay away from the House in order to help Coolidge.

JUDGE GIVES HISSYMPATHY TO HUSBAND
But Upholds Wife in Her Fight
Richmond, Va., Oct. 3.—All that Maurice L. 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."

SOME FIGURES ON RAILWAY EMPLOYMENT
Many Positions Open to Our Workmen
Figures showing the number and classification of Negro employees of steam railway lines, as summarized by the office of the secretary of labor, conclusively show the entrance, advancement and permanency of employment of Negro workers in one of the most important industries of the country. In all, there are 135,055 Negro rail workers, who are directly engaged in handling or safeguarding the transportation of persons or property over the lines of the vari-
Railway employees of our Race are usually thought of as porters, and the 136,055 total contains tragl and 10,000 total contains crew members, of whom 20,224, of whom 23 are Colored women. The other classified railway occupations, however, show that rail transportation workers of the Negro race are Negro and superintendent of traveling comforts and performing domestic service for passengers. In fact, the summary shows that 136,055 total contains tragl and 10,000 total contains crew members and property. There are 111 engineers and 6,478 firemen. 202 inspectors of way and structures; 202 telegraph and telephone lines; 330 mail and freight agents; 2,874 switchmen and flagmen; 1,195 foremen and overseers; 2,377 holter washers and engine holders; 1,851 firemen; 5,133 mail and freight agents; 2,874 employed at miscellaneous occupations such as ticket agents and station hands, who are not classified in office; 1,851 mail and freight agents; 2,874 appreciable number of female employees who work as porters, laborers telegraph operators, etc. The New York state rail lines, in fact, board employees of the Illinois, with the veteran J. H. Ketley, who for more than 40 years has been a telegrapher for the Illinois Central Railroad company, takes first in the period of employment service.
Geographically, these 136,065 Negro rail hands are well distributed throughout every state in the Union. Georgia leads, with 10,865, and is followed by Louisiana with 9,141; Virginia, 9,010; Alabama, 8,844; Texas, 8,381; Tennessee, 8,100; Mississippi, 7,744; North Carolina, 5,321; Florida, 5,091; Illinois, 4,554; Arkansas, 4,184; Kentucky, 3,916; South Carolina, 3,558; Missouri, 3,708; Pennsylvania, 3,569; Ohio, 3,219; Maryland, 2,221; West Virginia, 2,052; Oklahoma, 1,507; Indiana, 1,167; New York, 1,127. Each of the remaining states has less than 1,000; Negro rail workers, New Hampshire, with its one brakeman, two laborers and one switchman, completing the list.

A. M. E. CONFERENCE PRAISES COOLIDGE
The Chicago conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church, presided over by Bishop A. L. Gaines in favor of a resolution prepared by the Rev. C. M. Tanner, pastor of Bethel church, one of the largest African American churches in the resolution reads as follows: "We are passing through a period of great transition. 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.
"A great political upheaval now marks our land. New divisions are being made. New alignments are seen. New forces appear. New leaders ask your patience, your confidence and your suffrage. It is necessary that every step we take shall be carefully measured, that every chance we contemplate shall be performed. This is a government of the people, for the people and the people. Fortune is a nation whose God is the Lord. Fortune is a nation whose ruler knows justice and whose heart has underzone change, rebirth and Christian resecervation. Such a ruler, it is our conviction, we find in the president of the United States, Calvin Coolidge of Massachusetts. He halls from New England. He is a Purritan, though he speaks little of his interests. He stands him is the unmatched story of the pilgrims who landed on New England shores with a prayer upon their lips and liberty in their hands. We have confidence that President Coolidge will do justice. He declares himself to believe in the common citizenship of a common people, and when the challenge came he met, declaring that neither race nor race nor race should be affixed to him in the administration of the law or the exercise of his high influence.
"Therefore It is the sense of the Chienge conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church that the Chienge conference has served by the retention of Calvin Cooleid as president of the United States. He represents the Christian character of this nation, and we appeal to the constituency of our great people in his sentiments for the people within prejudice to race or color."

News of the Music World
Sunday evening marked the beginning of Sunday musicals once each month, at the South Park M. E. Church, under the direction of Prof. Edward Morris. The facility audience filled the large auditorium and among those present were many of Chicago's foremost musicians and former pupils of Prof. Morris. Their present must have been inspiring to their former teachers through whole invitation they had come, and was interesting to hear these young and talented musicians, members of the opera company.
Space will not permit a detailed accident the work of each of the numbers of the program was very enjoyable. Mme. Vireinia Green, formerly with the Williams company, and Harrison Emanuel, violinist, were the guest artists. Both artists were heartily�rn-funded and their numbers were significantly representative of their standard as artists. Mrs. One Triece was the excellent accompanist, Maj. X. Clark Smith accompanied one of the soloists upon the cello, always lending his talk when he spilled.
The Carole Throned Blue a new soprano, was heard in the Soul's Awakening. Mrs. Blue has a beautiful voice and will become an exceptional soloist, as she has natural ability for interpretation of the messages a great amount of.
Other soloists, who have been reviewed in this column, were: Maz-dalene De Acklen, soprano; Milter Porter and Boone, lines head to solo numbers with the opera company, and were well received by the audience. The male roles of the唱者, in his case, their voices harmonized well and the hasses were exceptional, indeed.
Miss Neibn, Allen of Riverside, "A.I., competed with 60 students at Chicago Musical College and won one of the four scholarships as a member of the noted teacher Victor Saar. Musicians are also the first-hand artists from the 17-year-old girl, as she was the one representative of color in the competition. Miss Allen possesses a lovely contralto voice, and at the time, the band is a well-written band with Burton Thatcher. She will confine herself, however, for this term to her piano work. Miss Allen is a piece of T. P. Bryant, well-known baritone and tech.

Miss Simons handled the magnificent sermon with facility and in the three members and were who were also the most well-doled and opportunity of showing her knowledge of this difficult instrument. She was thoroughly equal to the occasion. The audience was most enthusiastic in their appreciation.
Mr. Burton has a great deal to recommend him to an audience. His tenor voice is not a large one, but one that carries well, and pianissimo passages are sung with unusual beauty of tone.
As I had to attend the Williams concert, I did not hear Miss Allen or the chorus. Mr. Bryant deserves great credit for the success he is having with this group. Since and when he has mixed quartet, he composed of members of the chorus, showed careful training. The trio sung by Mrs. Melba Bryant Williams, Mrs. James Howard and Walter E. Gossetton were and experienced singers, was heartily applauded.

The Famous William Singer wore a blue jacket under the management of Miss Mary Jones, well-known soprano. The vast orchestra, with a bandstand, gave evidence of the success of the management and the popularity of company was one of the first to make a successful tour abroad and they have grown to be one of the most and of artistry. For many years they traveled without a change and they have made themselves famous. Whenever changes are not available, thereby assuring their patrons all over the country that a band they heard two soloists and some ensemble numbers, regretting that I could not all the singers who were now to me.
Mrs. William's wonderful contralto was a delight to hear. The Bollywood Man was a delight to hear. The Bollywood Man brought tears to the eyes and was still with me even after they easily followed every word. She was forced to sing an ennue. Mrs. William's excellent range and has a very pleasing stage presence and her inter-relationship with Homling was very effectively eleven.
Treading, rendered by the combination given by the audience, William has prominence in this number and artist, for a noisy time was the number over-acted and tonal quality was never forgotten. The album, with the Italian street song which gave the opportunity of hearing Miss Bomar, the composer, which easily carried the oblige in the excellent ensemble and made this the high marks upon the program. The male quartet gave an artistic buzzerily ambushed. The Williams company will be a great pleasure to look back in, packed houses throughout the country. The accompanist is far excellent.

He had been in the eminence of the company about three weeks, having transferred to the St. Mary church job early Friday morning Jackson Sand Lime Brick company. The tragedy is said to have occurred when a workman carrying heavy stones in a wheelbarrow to a building block struck the highest points of the church, allowed the wheelbarrow to tilt over, thus throwing one of the stones to the ground. The construction crushed Miller's head and knocked him to the ground. Other workmen rushed to his aid, and he was sent to the Mercy hospital, where he died because of the accident.
Mr. and Mrs. Miller formerly lived in Mason City, Iowa.
DEMOCRATS IMPERIL INDUSTRIAL BOARD
Democrats, who have always oppressed the Colored citizen and have always denied him his constitutional rights whenever they had the power, dislike President Coolidge. They dislike him particularly because he has always stood for the equality of all citizens, including those of the black race.
President Coolidge's first message to congress, delivered Dec. 6, 1923, especially aroused the ire of these Negro-haters. In it the president specifically requested that a commission be appointed to foster good-will between members of the white and his Colored races. The president said:
“On account of the migration of large numbers into industrial centers it has been proposed that a commission be created, composed of members from both races, to formulate a better policy for mutual understanding and confidence. Such an agreement is concerned. Exercises would rejoice in the accomplishment of the results which it seeks, but it is well to recognize that these difficulties are to a large extent local problems which must be worked out by the mutual forbearance and human kindness of each community. Such a method gives more promise of a case that is more likely than outside interference.”
Aside from this expression of his support for humanitarianism, the president supported a bill to form a commission for two members, three to be members of the Negro race. This commission was to economic condition Negro and eseguency and other problems in which he is interested and to submit its recommendations to Congress. The Negro industrial commission bill was reported favorably in the house from the committee on the economic condition, and elected to support the bill and enough Democrats are defeated to prevent them blocking the bill. It will become a measure promulgated by the Republican party for the benefit of American Colored citizens.

PARIS WOMEN GREET TROOPS WITH KISSES
African Soldiers Get Grand Welcome
His Continental Urban
Paris, France, Oct. 3.—All parts of Paris turned out to welcome home the 200,000 African natives and Moroccanus who returned from the Ruby Sands for the past few years enforcing the terms of the armistice on German subjects.
Amid roilous acclimatum the troops marched through the streets of Paris and French leagues. French women. 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.

Louisville, Ky., Oct. 3.—Dr. Horace Morris, one of the leading physicians of this city, has started a program here to give a nonnouncement that he was a candidate for membership on the board of education. Members of our group are very much interested up here because of the treatment accorded us by the present board. The incident regarding the arrest of two teachers in the park durdure summer in the school are two good reasons why Dr. Morris should be elected. Dr. Morris has one of the largest populations in the host of friends and is a member of the Alpha Phi fraternity.
DEMOCRATS ATTEMPT TO CRIPPLE HOWARD
Democrats, who first denied the Negro freedom and later the right to vote, now attempt to deny him an opportunity to be a member were able to defeat the scheme of the Democrats, the scheme itself forms one of the stains in the record of the 67th and 68th congresses. 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.

In the case of the City of Chicago versus John Williams, 4646 S. 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 was stared by the old master, Jerry Mills, and he has lived right up to the moment. The music is splendid, the costumes new and nifty and the settings adequate.

THE MONOGRAM
The show this week consists of all-star vaudeville, each act being a House & House; after a line of new chatter, Bert sings an original song number. He is aided well throughout the House, and the turn ends with some eccentric dancing. Next on is the one and only Chinese Walker, and the turn over big, Berlina Blanks' Three Dixie Song Birds occupy the feature for the Ford, Laura R. Hall and Miss Blanks herself, and no trio ever seen here could compare with this clever singership and the ability to be known to need "spreading" over. The jokes used, songs sung and dance performed, new week comes a return engagement of Harris' Hits and Bits,
Dick Sherman, whose address is Box 1010, Grosse Pointe, MI, effect that the G. R. T. D. Man is the only one who has dropped him a line and is now in effect with him. He presumes his appreciation for game. He wishes it known that he does not feel that he should want to ask that they write him to hear from Madeleine Bolt, Ethel Ridley, Dorothy Rhodes, Vola McCoy, William Williams, Tiny Ray, Bill Moore and many others with his friends too numerous and in line, friends, a postcard heats a blank.

The game of life and the game of death if one cares to make the application. The team in the field represents the game of life. Each game has an unpure with this difference. The game of life does not require an enmersion; and there is also this similarity; and there is also this similarity. Cinks on the bleachers, as well as some of the players, kick against some of the players. The player steps in the batter's box, nerves on edge, muscles tensed, eyes wide, and arms up. The expert, but he is ready. The ball comes swaling up to the plate, the batter has another chance under him in the game, and the umpire calls out the strike, but the batter has another chance under him in the game, and the umpire calls out the strike, but the batter has another chance under him in the game, many a joekoode who deserves to play, just because his foul is not caught.
Always there is some one out in the back, and a player can do. Sometimes the batter connects with the ball; but it stays in the back, and the batter does not obtain to his diracide, and oftimes his effort advances another, runner; but the batter must stay in the back, and the batter other than inning. So it is in life. We may try hard and fail, but in so doing we must learn to be a successful Umpire credits us with a sacrifice hit. Sometimes the batter touches the field and the ball is missed, or the race must to be the ball to first base. Or he may make a base hit and be safe.

every stage of the game we must have the assistance of others before we can make the home plate. It is a lucky joodoke who hits a "home run," who does not have to bat himself to first, be sacrificed to second, steal third and then perhaps be caught sliding to the home plate.
Like in the game of life, it takes real men to play baseball—men of courage, patience, skill, brain and brawn. In either game the weaklings, the cowards and the crooks are soon eliminated. The squarer one plays the game the more credit one receives, and neither game is over until the last man is out.

Nashville, Tennessee, Sept. 24—The theatrical season of season 19 was unheard on Monday, Sept. 22, with the Parampolis production known by her host of friends. The show she carries this season is one of the most popular operas. Every act, even the cellist's son's opening. Every act, even the cellist's share of praise for the work he has given over her number.
Notable among the vaudeville artists is champion dancer, "The Black Sheeky." He needs no introduction to the patrons of the show, but he is a talented Xashville. He still retains noticeable attention as being a prime favorite of the show's patrons, and others on the hill, as follows, Dick and Dick, who do a very clever sing-along. The show's heroes are all good. The team of Hirgins, George and Miss Helen, doing a dance that was done. In short, the show, Madame Rainey headlining every act, also the jazz band, doing a good.

My Dear Teacher, I hope that you will excuse my long delay in being in France but after one re-reading of the habit of keeping their correspondence to be my case. But at the best I hope you are enjoying good health and if you put your foot on the "braces fall" each put your foot on the "braces fall" each give and barkeep the wink for fun and afraid that he would give you an eye-ball for fun and afraid that he would give you an eye-ball for fun and afraid that he would be 50 of 1 per cent letter.
I meet a number of Americans, Tony, but they are all Olaya. Of course I am always sharp and keen, so the Olaya's are more over-joyed. I return complacency with me.
But from what I read and hear the World's Greatest Weekly. The Chicago Defender, has started the hall to roll in gand in 20 years, maybe sooner (let us hope), things won't be the same, and the sooner the better. It was at the end of the government and the public at large, adop the Defender's platform, you will wake to see the strongest nation in the world. A government that can not fall will be the result. But until the U.S. A. adopts the law of this great, grand and glorious republic, which he has called "Estate of a Fronte" for all regardless of color, and the Defender's platform. It won't be.
You have only to recall the case of Monsieur Bullard of Paris and the Monsieur le Prince of Dahomey to test the strong laws of this country. Now French person with a grain of self-reflect trough built a gentleman of Color. We have a few over who have been poisoned by the Southern white gentleman of Georgia and a few other Southern states, but he soon finds out to his sorrow who is the best in the long run. For Mr. Southerner only stays until pocketbook gets the cramped armouringடன், but, wherean Mr. Gentleman of Color is still hero.
But, of course, the tourist with his change, causes a lot of hardships to fall upon the brother who makes the American who sails from any port to France during the summer always country than one who has been here from three to ten years, someone wants to rob him. Fifty dollars at the present good and sleep well. Of course if a person is going to mail 100 postcards it can not be done with 1,600 a day. A Colored boy from New York city with enough American dollars to keep him in France for one year and enjoy where each of us owned our own car was afraid of me and the other boys, where each of us owned our own car he could not be told one thing, so he, like plenty white Americans, fell in love with a group of people around to me. He looked like something to a group of people between the seven of us to ship him home second after reaching little old New York.
Tony, there only seven of us here are rescued of white and black—just talk United States—not English, but United States or count them. Here we are, seven Americans, and eat three meals a day which is 17 francs, and carry a roll of 100 to 1,000 francs, not as that would be for a meal when we can get one just as good for 5 francs. But, of course, a meal is high. When coming to France, Tony, if you want sights go to Paris; if you want to study the French people from an economic point of view, you can see the part of France that belonged to the Romans and the Engels; buildings that were built in 1500 are inhabited today and will be for many years not so long ago and their home was built in 1515. Of course many a famer and there are many people to come.
We have here Old Bordenaux and New Bordeaux. Today the poor live in Old Bordeaux, which was built back in 1000 in 1000. We have the rules of the old 1500. We have the rules of the old Roman arena which was built so long ago that history falls to give the date, but it was said that in this good area, it will be the great year of the old lions and tigers. We have not the kings' mallsions and parks, 300 or 400 years old. We have a Catholic cathedral that was built by the English beforer of the church in 1000. We have a chief chief of the old disaggress, and from the looks of things it may again turn to former days. Before one can see or speak to the pope in Rome they must less his ring on his old gold tray by his private secretary, who is a cardinal (deep reel) and commands the military guard of the Vatican at Rome. Well, King George and Queen of the Kissos, the most major pre-Roman and the English are still making a big noise about it. Maybe you will be surprised to learn that I am a Catholic—well—am. The English is the most chالo of the world's second son. It is here so I turned Catholic and the other boys are, too, and the world will be Catholic in 50 more years.
Well, Tony, you have heard the story about the whole world, but not worth a 5-cent piece with a hole in it. Well, I am sending you 5 cents with a hole in it, cut in by the French government. It reads 25 centimes and is called "single-point" so I don't say never have you anything.
Remember me to "Gang" Jones, Ras Time Billy Tucker, Cov Herndon, S. T. Whitney, D. Ireland Thomas and Jacob of the City. I very very much look at the death of George Duncan in Egypt. Enforced reading their articles, and most of all "Play Time," Billy Tucker, D. Ireland Thomas and S. T. Whitney really criticised the reticule which could be of help, many members of our group on and off the stage. I read their articles so much that it seems that I know them. They see the clowned people, the common man, ask them to keep up the good work, ask their articles are read the world over in the W. G. W.
At present I am sending a few copies of the work in the public works and published hotels and publishes houses in Spain and Italy, where most Americans go. The Tribune of Chicago follows them—why not the World's Greatest Weekly—the Chicago Defender? If course I know that my new "Voyager" Defender on sale at news stands in Paris and Bordeaux. I because of the exchange rates. They refuse to remit in American money so that I say it is. I wish you were in the office. I read and best wishes to the editor, publisher and staff, and my best wishes to you with my best regards. Put, Tony, you are getting the fat. Oh, yes, before I find it about the book I have a party, I don't know your "Voyager." I am in town and you work in "Voyager" Brown and God bless her. Your friend, Albert Curtis

Orpheum Star Just Needs Stairway to Make Crow Roar with Glee
Our friend “Bojangles” Bill Robinson, whom the Old Roll Top Desk Man named “The World’s Greatest Single” many years ago, gets more “press” than the Prince of Wales as a regular thing and ranks right up. "Bill" McClough, Professor, Volted, Lydia Pinkham, The Denver (Colo.) Rocky Mountain News, which also ran Boys picture, printed the following one day last week:
Lead Bill Robinson is the first of the state's most young drama from them with its toes as Sarah Bernhardt could out of the tears of Camille.
Ricci, who comes from a jovial race, calls himself “the dark cloud of joy,” has an ingratiating smile which illumines his natural ebony countenance and is a dancing marvel with a wonderful sense of art. It is one of movement. He uses a small stairway in the climax of his act as the Orpheum theater this week. There are six steps and each plays a part. A turn up, two steps, and three steps, will be the second in the event. In an exceedingly humorous manner.
With a yellow cane, a pearl derby and a brown spot suit all the struts of the stuff, sings a bit gives mosquitoes and jazz trombone limitations, and has an irresistible line of patter. He is a natty lad with the combined gifts of dishonestness of personality and comedy in a carnace.
The "dark cloud" makes the usual buck-and-wing dance a pedal symphony, interpreting the "Spring Song" or Schubert's serenade with the same ease that he clogs to "stop time" and jazz. He is as elastic as a rubber ball. A sensational bit is his imitation of a pogo dance, in which the customary pogo pole is discarded in favor of his own versatile pedal extremities.
Bill Robinson is individual in his status with the theater. He is alone in his field of amusement endeavor, without a second or an imitator, a jewel in the crown of achievement, and some of the most precious of jewels are black.
Robbison, besides being a wonderful
robber is a fast man on the clinder
"Boylejammer" is headlining a great bill at the Palace, coming into the Palace, Chicago, for the first time.
CALLS US RABBI
and Karle "Moneycraben" Cooke, the famous comedian, sent a Happy New Years (Hebrew) card to us addressed to Gabbli Tony Langston. That Karle feller is the limit; he is always pulling something original. We saw him in the offices of Henry Troy, now a song publisher, and Harry Collins, his manager, while in New York city recently. We expostulated with him for not sending us word that he had recovered from a serious illness in Cleveland. Ohio, some months ago. This is what he hauled off and said: "Well, brother, you didn't publish that last letter telling the folks all about how worse I was, so I thought I would let you and the rest of 'em guess whether I was dead or not. Can you beat it? But that's the way with Karle. He has never died yet.

THE GEORGIAS
Dear Tony: We are not Tulsa, Oka-
dah of sunshine. To some it is a land of
hapiness, to others, a land of sorrow,
happy are some to he in the land of
the living. Sorry are outliers because
he lives in the city. He lives in the
and life. There is liberty down here,
but it all depends on what race you
belong to. The word liberty to some is
only used to tell of a certain statue that
is in the city. While White Ade did all he
could to bring about freedom to all, yet
some of us are "on loose." In some
cases it is our own fault. As in most
the progress of our brother that we
sooner or later find ourselves no better
off than the rest in the end. O that
race could be "all for one and
one for all." The Georgians open in Mo-
Sunday for one day, I only mention
this town because it was on the route
to Atlanta. We are big business.
We find the Race people have made big
stirres commercially in this town.
ELLA HOUSEKEEPING
Show fans of a few years back are certain to remember charming, sweet-voiced Ella Anderson, who used to sing in the band The Beatles, and mental hits of former days as a member of the Williams and Walker, Cole and Johnson and Smart Set shows. Ella is now residing at 134 Rhode Island Avenue, where she presides over one of the most beautiful homes in the Capital City. She features accommodations for the leading professional folks, so don't forget her the O-D when you visit her town.
ABRAMS OUT WEST
Dick Abrams, well known in moving businesses, gets his mail at 1723 tross St. Oakland, Cal. Dick and his handsome room business, and they have a dancing pavilion in connection with their place, a hotel, and a popular resort of its kind in the West.
MUCH IMPROVED
We are in receipt of a letter from Baby Nannie Longshaw, who is now getting hers at Warren, Ark., to the effect that she is now much improved and long since gone to a long sleep. We expected to join a big review in the near future.
Motion Picture News

"Birthright," a 10-reel Race production, released by the Micheaux Film corporation, was given a showing at the Charleston at Charleston, S. C., last Thursday. 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. HARRIS
Race production we have noticed some amateur actor "kill" some scene in the picture, lain in "Birthright" there are actors who are not born in the start and "say hold the audience all through the 10 full reels. 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. An increase of $7,537,376 admission taxes for the fiscal year ending June last was announced by the bureau of internal revenue at Washingto-ton, in taxes to all places of amusement in taxes ending June, 1923, were $70,175,117 for the year ending June, 1924, the Harry J. Price, manager of the Lincoln theater, Fort Smith, Ark. advises that the theater is now closed and the winter always was of the opinion that theaters (some of them) closed for the summer and opened for the winter, but this, Harry. Tell a fool something.
Mis Velma Howell, known as the girl with the million dollar smile, who is the owner of the coin theater, Fort Smith, Smith, and advises that she is real sorry that the theater had to close. I feel that she is a bit nervous, so hope so, anyway, as it is very difficult to hope a girl with a million dollar smile out of a job very long. Miss comes to me that there is still a hit show to transfer to the Lenox theater, Augusta, Ga., to Mr. Logan of New Horn, N. C. He is a hit show and is hoping that he succeeds in closing the theater. Miss Amle Jones Thomas, once a cashier at the beautiful Princess theater, Augusta, Ga., now residing in Chicago. The theater is not closed. The operators informed me that they could not make it pay. Miss Amle Jones Tenn., requested on Sep. 22 with William Miller's Broadway Tastus company. The playhouse is newly painted and every piece of scenery is new. The play will be as before, vaudeville and pictures.
Over 200 theaters in the coal region near St. Louis have closed down on opening a new theater. A few are running on part time. I acknowledge receipt of a copy of the Emanuel edition of the Daytime Theater, but I very carefully, am still waiting to solve a copy of the Screen Guide that was promised me some time ago. The famous Jolly Bobby orchestra of the Daytime Theater is making a tremendous hit. They are Hazel Walker, piano: Josiah Brown, cornet, and A. Waring, trumpet. Josiah Brown, cornet possessor of a new silver trumpet cornet and he is working it overtime.

Though we are all given to wearing a grouch, 'it's well that we do not wear it.' Wise men say that constantly framing an allot for poor work and failure to deliver never brought about a promo. After careful study we have found out that the fellow who boasts of allowing nothing to worry him seldom does anything worth while. It is great to feel that we are not getting older. 'Tis well, though, to set back our years. 'Tis well, though, to remember that 'tis all a lie. The four big guns to be used in the battle are intelligence, resourcefulness, thoughtfulness and wisdom. The greatest rampart is a bank account. 'Tis very easy to make our presence known through speech and actions, but the best way to make it is to produce something. Then watch the handshakes.

Dear Gen: This leaves myself and gang enjoying a pleasant week with Joe Boots) Marshall and I, both of us, headlining this week at the ian house, and from all reports they are knocking them for as "hop and Syrconation," and they sure live up to their billing. He has wikih him the following persons: Eddie Hoyle, as he sure stings a wicked hand in a whist name, but never gets a book; Liam Hoyle, as he sure stings a wicked boy who always skates at home; Marguerite Simms, the fasching soulrette; last but not least, Lee Boots, who also makes the cheeses; more bending.
Well, Tony. Portland is looking forward to coming of "Stepping High," and allow me they are sure going to them a grand reception upon arrival.

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. Please send us rates for a few books and supplies for your invaluable paper, as we can't possibly miss an issue. You can start by sending us the next edition with your answer and expect money order. Many thanks. From yours truly, Ted McDonald of McDonald and Leggett.

Dear Tony: We, the Sunset Four, closed our week's engagement at the Lyceum theater here Friday night, Sept. 25, as we opened here Saturday, Sept. 26, out this afternoon for Gays Fair, WS. where we play our final fair date. Well, Tony, we have had one big week here, beginning with a different club: the Wednesday meal. Monday we entertained the Insurance Commercial club; Tuesday, the Industrial Workers' club; Wednesday, the Rotary club. I am sending you a program of the Industrial Workers' club, their dinner which was given at night we were with our folks. The weather is nice and cool up here. We expect to be in Chicago about Oct. 1. a few days, he call me home, my house lived in, and met quite a few of the old timers. They call me "Beware" here because I used to sing "Asleep in the Deep" for them and of the Sunset Four in an out of doors profession. Regards and best wishes to you. From yours, Hoss Crawford.

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. Tressle is grace personified and has all kinds of energy." The week between the Waldorf, Waltham, Mass. and the State theater, Pawtucket, R.I.
New York, N. Y.—Judging by the large patronage accorded the Sissle and the past month the Colonial theater, their entertainment, the *Chocolate Dandies*, has caught the popular fringe. Being entirely removed and disbanded the past month, the authors have endeavored to present something out of the ordinary and by results they have succeeded. The *Chocolate Dandies* have grown their gradients which go to make a delightful evening's diversion. Owing to the extreme length of the program the management rise impatiently to the curricular rise promptly at 8:20 o'clock and at the only matresses, at Saturday, at 8:20 o'clock. The second month of this limited stay the program ranged by theater parties. This clever blend of Dixie funnies includes the pick of the best in his or her individual ent�ments, fast-stepping, peppery, and unusually realistic and exciting horse race. Emble Blake's funnies, and the splendid book, rich in comedy, by Nobile Sissle, added by the clever author, have all its predecessors who have attempted entertainments along colorful lines.

THE TATTLER
Flashy New York Publication Popular With Performers
The Tattler is the name of a weekly pictorial published in New York city which promises to take its place in the world of journalism and to ascribe circulation and popularity. Already it has gained a fine amount of success, being the official organ of the Hotel Men's union and enjoying a wide circulation through that fact alone. In addition it has a sporting department, edited by Bennie Butler, a wide-awake journalist. The Tattler is also a fixture in his particular line; a theatrical department of most comprehensive value, edited by F. J. Accoe, who knows exactly how to give them the "once over" and tell about it properly afterward; political and general" column edited by the writer; and a wide-edge and judgment is seasoned through years of high-class contact and newspaper experience; a health column presented by one of Gotham's leading medical promoter member of the New York Medical association, and a list of "State" and "Town" correspondents that would do credit to a daily newspaper.
Every page of The Tattler sparkles with class and originality. Many of its photographs of timeless fine distinct leasing toward theatrical, musical and sport lines. From front to back it shows that its editor-in-chief rounded himself with a corps of aides with the "news noses" needed to make any sort of publication worthy of the title. This man is Seymour Jordan, known in New York as one of the most popular men in New York. Despite the fact that the publication is less than four years of age, Mr. Jordan has brought it up to the top of the list of his success. The Old Roll Desk Man is proud of the fact that Seymour Jordan is among his long list of New York friends and that he is always made to be a part of the team. The Tattler. It means much in a big, lonesome dry town like Gotham

Popular Theater Resumes Business Next Monday Night
H. B. Miller, owner of the Monogram and one of the most popular and prosperous theater operators in Chicago, will reopen the Grand theater, 3110 State St., Monday night. Mr. Miller bought the house and closed it for a week in order to put it in first-class condition, the heating and ventilating systems have been thoroughly overhailed, the aisles occupied, new seats installed, new draperies placed upon the boxes and a thousand other things have been done to make the house comfortable and attractive. Martin Klein will manage the theater, a fact which insures against everything but the best in the line of the best. The show will be the famous "Smarter Set" company, headed by Scaled Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt, who are surrounded by a fine cast of principals and a great chorus. They will present a musical comedy called "Up and Down" and a fine success at all stands. Two shows night at pop prices will be the policy to start with the new management.

* BUSBY'S MINSTRELS
St. Louis, Mo.—The past week was not so lad, all one nighters. Wellesley sound; opened a two-week engagement here at the Palace theater, St. Louis; and Mily Blue (the "Break Eim Down Kids") closed. Joined Hagenbuck-Wal-Al and the Whispering Fire Jazz orchestra, Harry Johnson, Edward Carr, Mivey Walker, and believe me, they are not. Word from Johnny Witchell that he will soon be ready to leave hospital has been made for new 76-foot Julliam combination sleeper and dinner. Several added. We still are not satisfied with title of show. Another change is to hire Creed Stippers.
The show the past 10 to 15 weeks has been on the Gus Sun circuit, but they are getting off the circuit, joining the Izzy Weingarden circuit which is now being formed. We may open the new Rialto theater, Kansas City—DoS.

Friend Tony: Just finished what he called the call to my only side of route. They give me the best spot on the bill opening the show. With all of that I pulled laughs and applause as each scall of the show goes. He had the same of the booking agents play, with marked cards. I'll never learn. My agent had me thinking up to when he told me to stay off the bus. Louis was in the room and I was just on for Oct. 9, 10 and 11, then asked for my nine sets of photos and told him to let me have the ax so I could chop a pack to Jacksonville. He said he had been you to mean he said since yaudeville has reached the hands of 2maters and they get the first shake I give my room to only more poor soul. Even I have followed how low to go to a real performer unless he has appeared on Broadway. I remember the day when we minist men were looked up as a food準行者. Just off the bus. Colored shows were cut off of hookings. Then those same big fish came swimming after us minnows for a feed and we, open-hooers minnows, men, always were in good to swil and the same thing. I like to happen again.
This always been my motto to live and let live, for some day the other few years have come to us. It has been started swimming this long stream some 29 years ago, and I intend to keep swimming and pushing all the brush aside. The best time for the land is the new I'll be the same. Frank's off the yesterday. Yours very truly. Frank Kirk, Jacksonville, I. P. O. Box 145.

Dear General: Just to let you know we are still in the land of the living. Had a wonderful trip up Michigan way, but the birds saw something and headed the way away as usual. I had to go to The New York City. Herndon—stop here and go to school. I find after this thirty-third season I need a lot of it. The wife and myself are doing our Electric and smoking and much in the round town and are busy every night. Quin-tard Miller is the big noise at the Washington and they seem to be as popular as ever in their second week. I need a good show also the best Colored burgeque show for its size I've seen. Eddy Lemons is in good trim and making 'em yell with his comedy, while Overstreet, the following day, is the best of the show. The barns legged chorus is full of top and seems to be.

THE STANDARD
Philadelphia, Pa.—The bill here this week includes Carmelo and Mitchell's "W Got It" company, which now features, *Jumple and Willis*, rightly billed as "Laugh Proof" in a great comedy offering; *Alberta and Dewy* in a singing, dancing and jazz; *Spectacle comedo* duet; the Cassette Rydell musical comedo; the Lelleuse, a great cycle novelty.
"South Bound Blues" was written especially for Madame "Ma"Rainey — Paramount's Mother of the Blues — by the famous composer, Tom Delaney. He made a special performance of Madam Rainey to sing "South Bound Blues" as he believed "Ma"was the only Blues singer who could do justice to this great masterpiece. This is unquestionably Tom Delaney's biggest hitin' hitches "Down Home" made famous more than two years ago by Ethel Waters who is now a Paramount star.

ROGAN TO PITCH OPENING GAME AGAINST HILLDALE

ROGAN
CUBANS WIN 2 GAMES FROM THE LINCOLNS
Dave Brown Wild but Cubans Hit Timely
New York, Sept. 26. — The versatile Cuban Stars won both games of a double-header with the Lincoln Giants at the latter's home grounds here today. The first game was hotly contested and was won, 4 to 3, in the other contest with Dave Brown pitching, the Lincoln were shut out, 7 to 0.
Oscal was in his best form for the first game and held the home team to seven scattered hits. He was opaque by the defense, with the pitched good ball, except for the third innings when he allowed three runs. Omas, the Cuban center folder, was the star of the game, cutting off several runs by sensational catches as well as getting a home run and two singles at bat.
An unusual accident prevented the Lincolns from tying the score in the first half, but landed solidly on the first ball pitched. It sailed far into center field and looked to be a sure home. But instead, going into the blueshade, the ball hit midway of the flag pole and bounced back on the field. The ball was quickly recovered and Smith was out going to third base by Qins.
In the other contest Dave Brown put his team at a disadvantage in the very first inning by walking two runs four runs to be made. In the second inning Oscal hit a home run and in the sixth—the last inning—two more runs were made. Juanello bounced but after pitching three innings exchanged places with Dihigo. Both were equally invincible for the local team, only four hits being allowed. Daylight saving caused the officials to call the game at the end of the sixth because of darkness.

YOUNG SAM LANGFORD NOW THREATENED WITH BLINDNESS
Lexington, Ky., Oct. 4.—"You beat all of 'em you can, and what you can't handle I'll take care of myself." — "You can't take care of Baby," told young Ed Lansford, then of New York City, more than 10 years ago and laced the gloves on the youngest for his first profes- tions. Dempsey, famous T. J. H.
McKinsey, Bill Brennan, Benny Leonard, "Panama Joe" Gans and others prominent in recent boxing annals, will meet with at Grunts was Harry Wills.
So the young boxer started out in the boxing game. Today, a favorite with Lexington fans of the squared circle sport and his genial smile a little more than usual, the hall shows, "Young Sam" Lantford, the former Ed Lantford, in St Joseph's hospital awaiting an operation by which doctors hope to restore sight to Sam's left eye. They think right eye is permanently slickless.
In 1921 Langford says he had a contract to go on a tour with Jack and his sparing partner in Johnson's traveling act. Here Sam says he learned the clever pantomime game, part of the show, which has made him a favorite here. The company didn't do so well. and in December, 1922. Lanford came to
The appearance of a cateract in the young boy's eye establishes an strange coincidence between the country and the old Sam, who climbed well towards the top among the country's heavyweights and who is still ranked well in nine circles, three months ago in operation for a cateract after having been almost totally blind for a year and a half. And now the boy he started in, ring game is in the hospital, hoping for a similar successful operation.
In a short time he was matched with "Battling" Monroe of Cincinnati and battled the Queen City boxer to an eight-round draw at the Lesting-1922 that Sam first began having trouble with his eyes, shortly after his arrival here. But his vision was not seriously impaired, and he has been boxing, off and on, ever since. Monroe has also shown the ability to take severe punishment, although the chief characteristic of his fighting is his ever-present amile.
A slight operation was performed recently on "Young Samis" left eye and he is to undergo another operation Sunday, which is expected to decide whether or not Sam will see again. After the surgery, a patient in the Nero womans at the hospital and everything but pessimistic about his troubles.
Incidentally, Sam fought his last two bouts at Jackson hall without the use of one eye, and with the use of the other, though he refused to admit to friends his handicap. Local fans will recall the two fights. Sam sending Kid Carter of Newport to the floor for the cent in the second round of his last fight.
"Young Sam" talked cheerfully about his past life as fast as questions could be asked. He was born up in Guchan, where he was employed in various business houses, Gifted with a splendid physique, he became interested in the boxing game and was a keen pursuit of his pursuit. His work finally attracted the attention of the "Boston Tar Baby", then a well-known boxer, who took the boy under his tutelage and started him in the professional game.
Jack Sheppard, promoter and match-maker for the Lexington Athletic Manager for some time, is arranging a benefit show to be held at Jackson hall in the near future, in which the participant will be asked to box without compensation.

LINCOLN COACH SHIFTS JAZZ BYRD TO BACKFIELD POSITION
Chester, Pa., Oct. 3.—Active training for the football season of 1924 was begun at Lincoln University last week. Some of the veterans have been on the campus for about 10 days, but the major portion of the squad started work with the opening of school on Tuesday. More than 50 candidates reported to Coach Young, and he has a rather husky group from which to build up this year's team. Capt. Crudup, Lancaster, Lee and Goodman are already in good shape.
There is some doubt about the return of Morgan, but several large, experienced youngsters will be ready to fill his place in case he does not show up. Calloway, the former giant, Columbia guard, has come out for practice. He did not play last year because of a bad ankle. Fate seems to be pursuing him, for this year he has a bad knee; but he is determined to play at all cost.
The following old men have reported and are going good: Capt. Crudup, Tom Lee, "Jazz", Byrd, "Tad" Lancaster, "Marcus", Goodman, Bill Taylor, "Bal" Taylor and "Big Boy" Grsty. The back field, according to Coach Young, will probably be one of the best in the school's history. The line, however shows a loss of five men who must be replaced by the second-string men of last year or by new men.

Seasiders Pry Off Lid; Play Lincoln Nov. 1
By P. BERNARD YOUNG, JR.
Hampton, Va., Nov. 3-With three weeks of preliminary outdoor practice already behind it, the Hampton squad of gridiron warriors this season has the brightest prospects for a victorious eleven that has faced it in years. Led by the redoubtable Capt. Oscar Pindle, one of Hampton's mainstays in her line last season, the sixty-odd players who have been reported are rapidly rounding into condition under the skilled turtle of coaches Chatham, Williams, Glideon Smith, and William Parkes.
(2)
In fact, the entire athletic program of Hampton has a brighter outlook for seasons that lada championships, the opinion of those closest to Hampton's athletic life. Football, basketball, and tennis are among the sports related to come into no small share of the success that indications point out for the "Seaiders" this year. In the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic association this year and one non-member, on Oct. 4 she opens the season with a game against the tackles Virginia seminary and college the following Saturday, and then plays in Norfolk the following Saturday against the St. Paul "Tigers." This is undoubtedly going to be one of the most successful struggles of the year: St. Paul thirty for revenge because of her recent defeats by the "Seaiders," and Hampton will not pass. Already reports show that League park in Norfolk will be filled to overflowing on Oct. 18. Will there be any games do not live in the immediate vicinity of the seaport town. Of course, Hampton and Lincoln rosters will pack the park for the Philadelphia
Dances, reception, dinners, and all the other social activities that go to the Hampton school have been arranged for this game, and also the big battle with the Linn-McCarthy school. Nov. 1. The same is true of the other games on the schedule, but these two battles between Hampton and the Linn-McCarthy school will be unusually interesting.
The complete schedule is as follows: Oct. 1. Durham State normals; Hampton State normals; military and college at Hampton; Oct. 18. St. Paul at Norfolk; Oct. 25. Virginia at Petersburg; Oct. 28. Petersburg; Nov. 1. Lincoln at Philadelphia; Nov. 8. Shaw University at Hampton; Nov. 15. Howard at Washington, Union university at Hampton.
Letter Men Return
Hampton has lost an all-America tackle in the graduation of R. T. Coleman, captain of the 1923 team. The Bullin brothers, Herbert Hardwick, J. J. Taylor and W. W. Cardozo were also lost through graduation. "Bullin-doe" Williams, last season's versatellite fullback, also graduated, but was excluded by the team for advanced working. In illness he was unable to return the time school opened. But he also failed to return as he expected.
To offset that, however, Hampton has six letter men returning, and every one of them was an outstanding figure in football circles last season. They are Oscar Pindle, center and captain, aggressive, sure in tackling and perfect in passing. David Guntz, the senior kicker and a terror on either end of the forward pass, Together with his experience and craftsiness, these abilities of his are expected to make his last year in football his best. Then there are others, including Bertrand Jacob, Hampton's eliminative quarter and all-round football star; Edward Hargrove, one of Hampton's triple threats; "Jimmie Jones, one of the choices for an all-American berth last season and the other one who, for his ability to literally roll a line out of his way, has been called 'Steamroller."
- Together with this there are many new candidates who show promise, and plenty of experienced material and the class teams. These include James T. Alexander, Courtland, Ala., a lineman; Elmer Baker, Phoebe, Blaise, a lineman; an executive baker, O. G. Biernack, an art teacher, a strong high school, Washington, D. A.; Fred Creeasy of Scottstuff, Va., a lineman; George Clark, Phoebe, Va., a lineman; Erookneal, Ta.; William Doan, the backflow from South Carolina who scored the first touchdown on Armstrong field; Alexander Foreman, Hambsburg, Va., end; William Lee, lineman from Petersburg; Samuel Mansfield, Savannah, Ga., a star back from one of last season's games; Bristol, Others who will put up spirited fights for varsity births are: Reuben Monday, William W. Patten, R. B. Ienney, James L. I. Shatner, Francis W. E. Fortune and A. H. Pitts. In reality, every candidate is a potential member of the varsity unit and the class team. That is the belief at Hampton.

Paul Quinn supporters are now beginning to have hopes of victory, and the team is poised to pound giant fallback, denoted the molekins and declares that he is ready. The team is expected to battle on Jackson field, is expected in camp any day. Should this star be a winner, the team will have a line that will compare favorably with those of past seasons.

While the Tiger hair in preparing the Bengals for their struggle with East Texas, while the Bengals have a better team than the Tiger, yet the outcome of the fray has been decided. The Tiger's always play their best against the Wildcats.
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.

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

two or three years. Two or three have outspread Williams and Walker each year. Boxers, the most discursive of all, demand now than they ever were. 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 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. If any of the players are so endangered, other folks about her about it. Most of the fans come to see a good ball game and not to hear your thoughts about individuals these times, can get it their team game. The game is Saturday the Giants started off like a house alire in their half of the first half, and the Giants wild and walked Gardner, DeMoss dumped a Texas league in center, the Giants had stole second, scoring two runs, Torrentil's single to left put Marlcher double steal, Marlcher sliding safely under Mothers, who was catching in the middle, games because of injury. Williams fanned, Torrentil advanced to third on Dixon's out and scored on Harris' single
McCalvin started the second frame for the Monarchs. In the visitor's third, Hawkins singled to left. Allen forced Hawkins to go to the off-the-field second. Minor, fled to Gardner, McNair singled Joseph hit to Bobby Williams, but Grand dropped the ball. Allen scoring, Johnson hit to Bobby Williams, but the son and all hands were safe. McNair scoring, Swatt dumped one in right scoring. Joseph McCalvin, an out of the champions' single scored fourth, and in the fifth Joseph singled with one come. Johnson was out when McNair robbed him of a hit by capturing his short fly in the mother's triple score. Two were at the same time. That was all.
Dixon's single to start the home fourth. and Harris' home run gave the Giants two runs with none out. In the home match, the Giants three three. In the Giants's mound duty, W. Well went the rest of the route with little trouble. The score:

Race to the President's Cabinet.
YOUTH AND CRIME
The stabbing of a 13-year-old boy by another boy of the same age has horrified parents and citizens of Chicago. Loose thinking people put it down to the credit of gangs and gang fights. 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 little or no opportunity for education themselves 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 necessity of both parents going out to work for the support of the family. The mother complains 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 tragedy 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 little or nothing about the children 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 aspirations 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 as 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 confidence and respect. Every teacher who is assigned to a mixed school should be selected because of her experience and knowledge 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 possibilities. Any intelligent far-seeing school superintendent if he tried could secure such teachers for these schools and assign them accordingly. 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 because 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 knives and stones for the arbitration of disputes. 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 headquarters 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.
THE MASONS LEAD THE WAY
The decision of the Scottish Rite Masons of Northern jurisdiction to recognize and co-operate with Masons of our Race ought to mark a great chance in helping develop a better understanding and more friendly attitude between both races. Our order, the Prince Hall Lodge, has paved the way this co-operation in graciously acceding to an augment that would avoid confusion in the name of the Supreme Councils in this district. This is beginning, but with an order as old and as influential as this, it is bound to have a marked effort throughout the nation. The only way we will progress along these lines is to give and take in those matters which make for increased understanding. The Masons of the Northern jurisdiction has started something which once it attains any remarkable momentum will do more than a thousand beeches and Fourth of July orations to make possible for men to know and have confidence in
The decision of the Scottish Rite Masons of the Northern jurisdiction to recognize and co-operate with the Masons of our Race ought to mark a great advance in helping develop a better understanding and more friendly attitude between both races. Our own order, the Prince Hall Hall, has paved the way for this co-operation professionally necessary to meet ranges that would avoid confusion in the naming of the Supreme Councils in this district. This is but beginning, but with an order as old and as influential as this, it is bound to have a marked effect throughout the nation. The only way we will make progress along these lines is to give and take in those matters which make for increased understanding. The Masons of the Northern jurisdiction have started something which once it attains any measurable momentum will do more than that the speeches and Fourth of July orations to make it possible for men to know and have confidence in each other despite race or social position.
The biggest problem in American politics is to get the citizen to vote. He holds that inestimable privilege too cheap.
BUSINESS POINTERS
"D DISCOURAGEMENT! knocks at every man's door some time or other. Some times he's" he's a hard fellow to keep out. But we're "gut" to keep him out. He's a hard fellow to live with. Fact of the matter is we don't want to live when he with us. You can be of great assistance in keeping down discouragement in your department. You know, the opposite of "discouragement" is "encouragement. It's the best "medline" in the world and don't be afraid to use it. We have tried and failed we're still better men than if we have never tried. If we don't try, of course, we'll never fall—hut we will surely never accomplish anything worth while. Very few of the accomplishments of great men were performed the first time. The man who invented one of the greatest remedies for the relief of mankind made several hundred experiments before he perfected it. The successful writer may re-write his story many times before it is "right." So let's just keep on "trying." If things don't break just the way we want them to, "let's keep on trying some more!"

ONE THING HERE, ANOTHER
THING THERE
If the Ku Klux Klan had been called on to pro- or the advertising given it by a pro and con press, would be bankrupt. Back in the 70s the Ku Klux,爪斗, fostered and fostered by the brutal and wicked Nathan Frederford Forrest, found it easy to lick the Race and care the liver out of "carpet baggers." "Carpet baggers" 100 years from now will be referred to in tone more polite than at present. But for them a Ku Klux taken out of physical slavery by war would have been drawn into a new servitude by conspiracy. Then you do well to despise the Klan. As such it is desirable. It is composed of financial pilates operating through politics to shake down all comers. But keep your straight and hold down your wrants a point of sound control. Those who cry down the Republican party for giving comfort to the Ku Klux will read the New York platform of that party with more than a slight interest. It will be in denouncing the Ku Klux in court, but New York Republicans led the assault by all. The Ku Klux. a hooded ignorance, keeps the militants on tip toe while it takes care of the suckers. It will try you further on.
The Ku Klux was born in the stronghold of the Democratic party and flourishes there today as a tree green year 'round. It is Republican where Republican have the upper hand, Democratic where Democrat have the upper hand, and交割 where it pays to keep the middle of the road came at a good time. It affords the test that has come—the test between government by law and government by fraud. For 40 years it has carried a government by fraud. The war got between it and designs. After the war it widened its. its knuckles and klegies are in silent agreement that it covers much terrain. Its days are numbered. If the Ku Klux Klan can drive the Race out of the political party in which is found the Race's only strength and prestige as citizens, one of its object will have been achieved. It is your duty to flay the man whenever possible. It is also your duty to keep our eyes open and watch for traps.
If the Ku Klux Klan had been called on to pay for the advertising given it by a pro and con press it would be bankrupt. Back in the 70s the Klan, fathered and fostered by the brutal and wicked old Nathan Bedford Forrest, found it easy to lick the Race and scare the Liver out of "carpet baggers." "Carpet baggers" 100 years from now will be referred to in tones more polite than at present. But for them a Race taken out of physical slavery by war would have been thrown into a new servitude by conspiracy. That conspiracy is you do well to despise the Klan. As such it is displeasant. It is composed of financial pirates operating through politics to shake down all comers. But keep your facts straight and hold down your wrath to a point of sound control. Those who cry down the Republican party for giving comfort to the Klan will read the New York platform of that party with more than slight interest. New York Democrats brought up a smart rear in denouncing the Klan by name, but New York Republicans led the assailants in an ignorance, keeps the politicians on tip toe while it takes care of the suckers. It will try, you further on.

TEARS AND MOURNING
The Southern daily press, particularly that of South Carolina, still keeps up a fuss over a recent tribute to a preacher of the Race, the Jew, Charles Jaggers, who died at Columbia a few days ago. In his world review, famous as "The Week," Simmons did not overlook "Uncle Jaggers." He wanted to know that kind of a funeral would white South Carolina the Bishop Chappelle when his time came to say heu.
Many of the Southern papers are full of brag about the honor paid the aged servant of the Cross. The Empire Tribute has this to say: "Yet some Northern papers are still so ignorant or fair as to assert that the Negro is not foreign to South Carolina habitually mistreated, m. re. him just credit where it is deserved, redens him as a lower animal, unworthy of help and couragement."
Papers North that so assert are neither unfair nor notorious. They are acquainted with conditions and widely tell the truth. Fewer Northern papers that merely are now disposed to describe conditions are in the South. The good name of the nation is been ruined by the South and merciful editor, willing to cover up the shame and dirt of the less section of our country to save our reputation. South Carolina mourned "Uncle Jaggers," kind soul but he was, because he went around with his hat in hand crying, "Low is the way." There is no record that mourning overtook South Carolina when a suspicious, brave, self-respecting member of the race met death in the streets of Abbeville a few years back for the crime of having succeeded and well dressed.
Uncle Jaggers" didn't talk against the Jim Crow. He was silent on separate schools. He thought robbery of the Race of its franchise all right and sent his indignation in praise of the Lord.

CHILDREN OF THE GREAT
inside, wholly aside, from the political complexion his selection to carry the banner of his party in dubious campaign, the nomination of T. R. J. King on thought. His adversary calls him "one." Yet that name, like some ancient title enriched with the heroic of the past, establishes a house it will live as long as the Union stands. And when Union is but a memory, and the records but disuse the struggles of men and years, that name will be unknown if called to witness with those in Washington and Lincoln. And upon his own character, powell, junior, has claim to the regard and confidence of his stat; and country. Add to these the infitness legacy left him by a father who enriches name and achievements of his country, and whose implores the hour to emulate his sire, and it ischt to deny him all that chance can promise nothing still undefined in the human heart stir.
Aside, wholly aside, from the political complexion of his selection to carry the banner of his party in a dubious campaign, the nomination of T. R., Jr., brings on thought. His adversary calls him but "name." Yet that name, like some ancient title entwined with the heroic of the past, establishes a house that will live as long as the Union stands. And when he is no longer in power, he will close the struggles of men and years, that name will not be unknown if called to witness with those of Washington and Lincoln.
By his own record and upon his own character Roosevelt, junior, has claim to the regard and confidence of his stat: and country. Add to these the stainless legacy left him by a father who enriched the name and achievements of his country, and whose son implores the hour to emulate his sire, and it is difficult to deny him all that chance can promise. When he is no longer in power, he arrives when children of worthy blood appear asking for a part in the drama of life.
Two principles are imbedded in the plan and scheme of our country. Experience wrote them and experience maintains them. They are that no bill of attainder shall be possible to lie against any citizen and there shall be no succession by blood of position to power in the state. But genius will not be denied, as you know if your life is the best acquaintance that you can have with the favoring time. We have here in our land a fluctuating aristocracy; up today and down tomorrow.
The bright hope of any race is that from generation to generation the intelligence, imagination, courage, vision of the fathers, shall be transmitted to the children in whatever lines that may have known their excellence. Likewise with families. Mothers more than fathers hope, often in silence, that their offspring may not be unknown when fame or fortune offers their reward.
Young Roosevelt carries the banner of a party. That is unimportant. What is highly important is that he carries a great name and seeks to add fresh deeds to his reputation. He is a genius. May your children likewise strive for their fathers. If so we shall have a Race equal to any.
A truth is an idea that has come through—hammered out on the hard anvil of experience.

—Dear Sir: In my fifth year of traveling and studying through the States and abroad, seeking some things that would help me in my invention, which is making wings for humans, which I have kept a secret for five years, I have spent quite a day in Leaving Seattle, Washington, on the 13th, I stopped in a little town in northern Minnesota, Fergus Falls.
And while there I visited an asylum where I met an old man who later proved to be a great electrician who helped me a great deal in my study. I asked this man what he was doing there and he made this reply:
6th, sir, I married a woman with a great love, and when my father married my wife's daughter and that made my father in-law, and my father became my sten-son.
"My step-mother, the daughter of my wife, had a son, and that boy of theirs was my brother because he was my father's son. But he was also the son of my wife's step-father and therefore her grandson. That made me grandfather of my step-brother.
"Then my wife had a son, so my mother-in-law, the step-sister of my son and his great-grandmother he is her step-child. My father is the brother-in-law of my wife because his step-sister is his wife. I am the brother of my own child, because he is the son of my step-mother. I am my mother's brother-in-law, my wife is her own child and my son is my father's noah, and I am my own grandfather. That's why I am here, sir."
Yours sincerely,

LIKED DEFENSE DAY TALK
My Dear Mr. Abbott: The observance of the first Defense day will we are sure be a memorable one for our children and I wish to express my gratitude to you for the share you had in making the occasion so impressive.
It was a great pleasure to have you with us and I know that your undertakings will long in the minds of your hearers and inspire them to become the champion defenders of their country.
I thank you for your kind words and pray that God may bless all your undertakings with abundant success.
Sincerely yours,

To the Editor of The Chicago Defender, have been reading in the Defender from time to time of how the policemen on the South side are molesting and insulting Negro men in company with fair complexioned Negro girls and ladies.
No doubt those policemen were of the opinion that the Negro men were with white girls or ladies. If this were true it would only concern the officers and not the policemen. Individuals are free to choose their friends and lovers without the aid of some of the impromises who disgrieve the police force.
These policemen ought to know that their duties do not consist of consorting the wives or sweethearts of Negro or white citizens. Policemen are supposed to arrest law violators to become lawbreakers themselves.
Why don't the two Negro addermen take up this situation with the chief with a view to having a stop put to these vicious and illegal practices of these policemen? Why don't the Neroes hold a mass meeting at one of their churches and loudly protect against same? If Negroes would do something like that the policemen would cease to most law-abiding Negro couples because one of the two happens to be fury at a white person. To face for which your paper sneaks, in my opinion, needs grit and backbone.
Sincerely,
LYDIA BEIDEL.

Have you noticed the manner in which some men of our time parade the streets wearing greasy-stocking caps to plaster their hair down? In the vicinity of 35th and Indiana Ave. 31st and State Sts. It is a common occurrence to see such sights. I find that they are all southerners who are familiar with methods of public conduct in a large city. They still think they are in the hovels and back alleys of the South, where such customs prevail. You're truly, RICHARD GREEN.

TALKS ON PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES, HYGIENICS AND SANITATION
keep the parents advised. So often we note that children upon entering school need dental treatment. This is not always due to the fact that the teeth have not been kept clean, but to a large extent it is due to the incorrect diet of the mother during the pre-mat period—because as the fifth week of foetal life and continue to develop until birth. At birth all of the deciduous teeth are formed or have started to form, and if all mothers would eat proper foods during this period and would give the child proper diet after birth there would be very little need of the den-
The sixth-year molar appears at the age of 6. This is the first permanent molar, and this is probably the most important tooth of the permanent set. In fact, it is the corner stone of the permanent teeth. The sixth-year molars are lost or decayed or misplaced all the other teeth are likewise going to be misplaced. If the second deciduous molar is lost before this tooth erupts the sixth-year molar will come forward and will be displaced and at the other permanent teeth. This sixth-year molar is the most neglected tooth in the mouth—too often through ignorance of the parents in mistaking it for a temporary tooth—and not until the child has a jumping toothache the damage detected and frequently the tooth must be extracted. Often, after the tooth is extracted the mother that the sixth-year molar is not a temporary tooth.
All parents should know that a child's progress in school depends in a large degree on the condition of the teeth. If you would be sure that you know this important sixth-year molar we would advise that you count six from the center of the teeth and five from the left. Remember that decay of the teeth always starts from the outside and never from the inside, as many of the parents so often think. Decay starts most frequently between the teeth. The enamel of the teeth covers the outside and is made up of a hard, hardened cemented together by a natural cementum and this cementum can be dissolved by acid.
Sugar and starchy foods, if allured to remain in the mouth, ferment and form lactic acid which dissolves the cement in the enamel and the crystal-like rods fall out, leaving a cavity. After enamel is broken through it is very easy for bacteria to eat the cement. Determining the age of the enamel before you know it and the whole tooth is gone.
If parents would wish their children to have good, strong teeth, give them plenty of wholesome food, have them drink plenty of milk and not ent so many sweets. See that your children will be able to enjoy four times a day. And by all means get the habit of consulting the dentist.

"Ashes" the first story, is in our judgment as good as "Green Thursday," which gives the book its title. "Ashes" is a racial identity, Judging from "Ashes" our guess would be that she is white, but one can never be sure these days.

I been charged with being injudicious enough to have prepared a speech for delivery even before we arrived in country that the Democratic party was still the party of secession and told the truth about the suppression of the vote of our folks in the South. This proposed speech is said to have led to his hasty summons to Washington. Maybe so; we do not know the facts. But if they are true we are doubly interested in Mr. Wilbur. We thought all the Republicans who dared to face these facts were long and long since pushed them out of the scene in his Birmingham speech. Perhaps, after all, our party has more to it than we suspected. At least here is one man who knows and has an appreciation for the history of the Republican party, as well as a knowledge of the real reason why the Democratic party can never truly be a national party except on the single issue of suppression of a minority race. We hope he does not let somebody else tell the real story about the Democrats even if he does not want to discuss it himself.
WE missed "Runnin' Wild," but we got back from the country in time to see Florence Mills before she left Chicago. And we thank our lucky stars. She is the brightest, most engaging personality of all the so-called "friends" and thank them for work which makes it art. Her supporting company shows what can be done with work, talent and half a chance at the big show. Together with Voddery's orchestra they give an entertainment which is delightful. Miss Mills is our idea of a real star. We would have liked to have heard Broadway's comment on the performance of her Russian wooden soldiers and Katinkas. They gave Italloff and Morels Gest something to think about. The Russians had nothing on the Dixie steppers as they would have sold them to serious better theaters and will repay. we feel sure, a larger investment in her personality and artistic ability. We hope she will get what her talent so clearly merits.

Your learning and your grace:

We wish to call the attention of parents to the conservation of their children's teeth. Generally parents
are under the impression that it is not worth while to concern themselves much about the first tooth, as they are only temporary and must be lost soon or later anyway. This where they make a very grave mistake, because the proper development of the jaw depends
pression that it is not worth while to concern themselves much about the first tooth, as they are only temporary and must be lost soon or later anyway. This is the parents make in very grave mistake, because the proper development of the jaw depends largely, if not wholly, upon the length of time the first teeth are retained. If the first teeth are allowed to decay and become abscessed the permanent teeth are damaged. And for this reason we would large parents to take their children regularly to the dentist so 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 first 12 years. The growth and development up to the twelfth year is very rapid, and that is the foundation on which we expect to build the man or woman. Without good, sound teeth we cannot build a good solid foundation. When we a cavity pears it helps to destroy the masticating power of the child, and if the cavity is not filled it is not long before the tooth is lost. Unless the food is well masticated we cannot expect to build a healthy child. It is cruelty to permit the teeth of your child to decay—to neglect the baby teeth that show decay merely because the teeth are only temporary, because the teeth are temporary teeth are just as important as the permanent teeth are to the adult. Nearly all the trouble people have with their teeth in adult life 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 bones are growing and the second set of teeth are forming; therefore the first teeth do not have the resistance to fight decay.
How to Fight Decay
The best way to combat decay is to see that the child has plenty of tooth-building food, and to see that the mouth is kept clean. The care of the teeth from the time the first tooth appears until the child enters school is the responsibility of guardians. After the child enters school, the dental examiner should

GREEN THURSDAY
THE same publishers who brought out Mr. White's novel
I brought out Mr. White's never have published "Journal." This volume is a series of stories or sketches which center about a poor Negro farmer and his family. Perhaps because we have not yet recovered from our friend Walter White's pessimistic picture of the South we find ourselves, somewhat on the fence with regard to Miss Peterkin's book. For once we cannot say right offhand whether we like it or not. We usually have a pretty definite repletion to this race problem stuff. At least we are sure of one thing—her characters, divorced from the dialect she puts up, being real flesh and blood. We don't happen to be able to make out what she gives us in the way of dialect. We have to guess at it. But we will remember for a long time the struggles of the poor farmer who planted an individual catfish at the roots of each one of his corn stalks as fertilizer because he could not afford to buy fertilizer and had heard that fish fertilizer was good stuff. Nor will we easily forget the masterful way this same farmer protected the good name of his wife after she so ceaseless in the population on the foolish admiration of the new local preacher. We think Miss Peterkin has some better material somewhere in her scrap book, judging by the promises of some more of these sketches.
