The dead man's name was given as Moses Johnson. Mr. Council and Jo Derry were rescued after伯特 officers by the fire department, workmen and passing pedestrians. Contractor Council was rescued after being buried under more than a foot of dirt and only after his breathing had almost stopped. He was carried to the hospital after having been given first aid treatment. He complained of severe pains in the back, but was otherwise none the worse for his experience. Johnson was breathing when his head and face were cleared of dirt, but died shortly afterward. He was found directly under a tree which was carried into the excavation. The cave occurred about 320 in the morning and not long after Mr. Council, Johnson and Derry entered to adjust drain pipes being installed. No Warning Without warning the side of the cut gave away and the handcuffs carried a small tree with it down upon the three men. The tree caught up the three men, and is thought to have been held up by the import of the slide from seriously injuring the others. Other workmen were nearby, but not in the path of the handcuff.

Look where we were fifty years ago, and see where we are today. You will be ready to join with David in each. The Lord hath done great things for us whereof we are glad. If any one had said ely a time when our people could meet in our beloved Old North State, in a convention as bankers, doctors, lawyers, merchants, college presidents, and professors, capitalists, editors, stenographers, men and women, who could talk as fast as you can talk, and then some, he would have been looked upon as a dangerous inmate, and society would demand you to be put away before you performed some rash act." "I am glad of the success that has been attained and we always stand to reader our service to helping others. We are opposed to lawlessness, we are not among those who would condone crime.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1924 'Uncle Tom' Leadership is Thorn in Lexington's Side Lexington, Ky.—The Chicago Defender has been a wonderful instrument in bringing about a better understanding between the two nations. This understanding is not in all cases what it should be—due to the greed, selfishness and loyalty of many of our self-esteem. I was born in Kentucky and am a citizen of Lexington. For many years I have worked with teachers and their work in education, politics and business. In spite of the fact that we constitute nearly one-fifth of the citizenship of Lexington, we are far better off in these fields. I endeavor that I have enumerated. Yes, far behind—not so much here, but mainly because of the fear, selfishness, greed and dishonesty of a large number of would-be leaders indeed there are many self-esteem needs. Our educational facilities are far from what they should be. We have not enough schools; our teachers are not well trained; our high school teachers only get $75 a month while other Colored teachers out in the country get $125 a month. Our high school principal will not carry in a petition asking for more pay for our city teachers. After we have paid our teachers, the white folks have been so good to us, and that we should show our appreciation by digging down in the archives. Call upon our educational leaders to honestly answer these questions. Politically we allow ourselves to be used as our tools. We fear to demand public office. Our public leaders have been satisfied to sell our birthright to those leaders relevant? They have been, educated in our high schools and colleges, but they bring many things to our lives. Many things are done simply to gain the flavor of a few white men. Not only have our leaders kept us back, but nothing. They have lost the respect of both white men and Colored men. There have been launched here many institutions by our men. For four dragging along beside Hobbes, Lexington is an old city; the relationship of the races is good; our women have graduated from many projects; where are they today? What are they doing for Race progress and the start of many projects? What shall mention only a few. Some of these organizations I am a member of; in others I have good friends. In others the brothers of another race the jungling for bad management cost us our wonderful building. It now stands as a monument to leadership we would do well get the best of the Old Fellows are doing wonders. For 20 years we more they have been handicapped. It could have been paid for long ago, but graft and dishonesty have been handicaps. We still meeting, but what are they accomplishing in a tangle way to make Lexington as it should be for our race? We are going on theory but short on practice. I own a few shares in the Colored own association which, if efficiently invested, would be a great investment. It is a paving invest- ment for a few of those officials at our company, but so far for the large- number of us ordinary share holders at the bottom. What a wonderful institution could have done to help the moral courage to fight for our rights here. This organization representative citizens. Upon the shoulders of this group rests a grave responsibility. It is doubtful if it at a time would be able to enoward has in him the proper quali- ties for leadership. If a large number our leaders are cowards, what could we be led of the masses of us who follow? Lexington is a progressive city; It Not Enough Schools City of Failures Fair Doesn't Pay is my home; I would rather live here than anywhere; Kentucky is a wonderful state; the people on the whole are a fine lot. There is one thing vitally needed here: Our leadership needs a thorough house cleaning. WILKINSON GAINS PROMOTION FROM CAPITAL SCHOOL BOARD Washington, D.C. C.

Court of Memphis Dies Manhattan Lodge of Elks Election Ends in Fist Fight Growth of Hampton Brings Good Tidings From Chinese Memphis, Teen, Dec. 26—Henry H. Humes, 71, veteran erie of the F. S. court, the only face man to hold such position, has passed away. Sunday, Dec. 7. He had more than a year to the infirmities of old age. In respect to his passing court sent for the funeral. PETER H. BURKE Mr. Humes was born in Chicago and had lived in Memphis for more than fourteen years here when a youth and a taught school for a time in DeSouza. In the early 1950s he was appointed by Judge E. S. Hammond and continued with Judge McCall until his death, then with Judge R. Hammond. He age-aged him to reimbark his duty. For several months Henry Humes had been missed in the federal court, and he was quarried, and when it was learned that he was ill there were expressions of sympathy and solicitude. He was almost as much an officer as he was a man of self. There are higher courts than the federal district court, but none was ever opened with more solitary punishment than the court under his administration. During his long service in the federal court Mr. Humes has been a well-known character in the court of the federal judicial tribunal of the West Tennessee district. It is said that he has a greater acquaintance among law jurists than any man in Memphis. His drawing voice, together with his slowness of exertion combined to make the opening of the court it adjourned to so long as any person in the room was seated.

When the grand exalted tried to turn the meeting into a grand bola affair, James D. Steele, editor of the newspaper, objected. It is alleged. He claimed the super-head had no right Born in China College Founded up, gentlemen," were the words he always used when the judge entered the court room and when the judge ordered adjournment. His little speech every morning was more a prayer and the words he employed at adjournment were rounded into a bendiction. He was loyal to both tasks and never slighted them. "Hear ye! Hear ye! Hear ye! This honorable district court for the western division of the western district of Tennessee is now open pursuant to adjournment. All persons having feelings with this honorable court will now draw near and give them attention and their shall be heard. God save the United States and this honorable court." Although absent from court many months, his death brings a pang to those who were solicitous of his condition throughout his enforced absence. Forty years, faithful and always on the job is an enviable record. Mr. Humes had a far education and was interested in the things that affected the welfare and progress of his Race. He was loved and highly respected by members of his own Race and always wills and ready to be friend to anyone who came to him in time of trouble. He never refused to speak a good word in behalf of anyone who called on him to do so, whether they were known to him or not. Funeral services were held Tuesday, Dec. 9, at Metropolitan Raphael Funeral Home and active and faithful member for a number of years.

He told the students that the problems of our youths are the same as those of the Chinese. The youth of a nation is its hope for the future. “As it takes faith to remove mountains so it will take faith to remove the difficulties of our people,” said Dr. Henry, who in closing his address, asked the students of Hampton Institute to keep Canton Christian college in their thoughts as those students in the away China are doing for students at Hampton.

The law of the law was never so unkempt as it was ever during the long, long, and long-lived life, with the customs that only must mean cruel sentiments except an extremely portion of the territory of the actual state of Alama, and in exceeding his point of speech we grant this point of view in the patriotic history of those work is presented to us and served with since the end of the time was elected and Tithin, who was titled "Arama Zuma," a great man. He was either a Negro or mixture, who forced upon himself a great deal. He never exercised the absolute power and never feared the right to condemn to death or to punish any subject, but the judiciary court applied the punishment for crimes of homicide, adultery, robbery and fraud. In one of his excellent works which touched us most deeply Oliveira Martins dedicated a few pages to the history of the civilization of the attention to how much this face accomplished in the formation and defense of the republic of Palmares. Of service condition, the Portuguese historian and sociologist considered the organized resistance in Palmares as being the most beautiful and the most interesting. He added: "It is a black Tree" and its history is an "Illust." (Taken from "Brinjal Historia e sociológica" Colonies, third edition, page 64). In a work of inestimable value Dr. Ulysses Brinhao has just called attention to which Oliveira Martins referred in passing. We are not surprised at the possibility of the incidents described by our Illustrious Dr. Ulysses Brinhao about the civilization of the black races at the time of their origin, which preceded or was contemporaneous with the civilizations of other At the present time only impert at vain people with ethnical preconce- ceptions over the absolute incep- tivity of any race to progress in civiliza- tion, social discipline, accumulation of knowledge and the practice of moral virtues. Plight of Slaves That part of the work of the Rev. Ulysses Brandon which may occasion surprise to the reader is the fact that the men whom slaves had caused to become as brutes, men who had been nothing but an example of contemptuous treatment and an unkind individuality of the humble and of the weak, men who had always been exposed to villainous nets and who had received unlimited violence. The slaves who became fortunes from canty and formed the first republic on the earth lost their humane qualities as they had been deprived of all rights and had been subjected as animals to the good or bad will of their owners and suffered a suppression of their liberty and of everything that constitutes the joys of life and the reason for death. One must remember that the republicans of Palmarias were slaves to customs which would imbibe in their males only cruel sentiments and no It is enough to mention the general custom of which Dr. Manuel was an example in his beautiful prose and "Knife Resmash" (of cutting the locks of the shaves after they have been whipped in order to take out the blood and try to cureerate them with drops of milled grease milk. Very well. The miserable people against whom such barbarities were practiced did not have the right to bring up families or to watch over the virginity of their daughters, to defend the modesty of their mistresses, or to become owners of desired possessions; however, competing all obstacles and difficulties, and after tremendous reverses for a certain length of time, they were successful in developing their independent activities and gave many demonstrations of their intelligence and of their collective morality as described by Dr. Brandão. Occupying an extensive portion of the Permambúcnian territory and a considerable part of the territory that today forms the state of Obras, stretching through the valleys of Parnhyia and of Mundhu, from the heads of these rivers, the republic of Palmares comprised the population of 10 principal places of refuge connected by well defended roads. The capital of this republic of rimaway slaves was the place of refuge designated as Macao, which had a population of about 10,000. History of State At this point let us mute from our patriotic historian who presents us in work a description of saints, enthusiasts. "The republic of Palmines, which Rocha Bombo calls, with considerable reason, "Estate Excrescente," was in fact a federation of several free states within a state, which today draws the admiration of all who Fletcher's CASTORIA MOTHER= Fletcher's Castoria is a pleasant, harmless Substitute for Castor Oil, Pareching Syrups, especially prepared dren all ages. the signature of Charles Fletcher Physicians everywhere recommend it. is that more properly fits us.

The laws of their republic were more humane than that of ordinances of the monarchy, and was a kind of democracy which formed a contrast to the absolute government of the mother country of the colony. Slavery was abolished by their oracle law, not only for those born in the republic, but for all other refugees whom, even though the refugees had been slaves elsewhere. The head of their government was selective and held office for life. He was a Negro or Mulatto, but he had to have the necessary requirements to retain command, and had to give proofs of He had to be very worthy, chroniclers testify that he was a chiefly elected, his authority was recognized, and all personal and party conflicts ceased. He did not have absolute power and had no right to condemn to death or to punish any of his subjects. Only the judicial tribunal had the right to sentence and to settle the penalties for crimes of homicide, adultery, robbery and treason, while he considered the greatest crimes The chief had to listen to the "Conseils dos Grandes" (decisions of the higher court) regarding the political arts of the administration of the republic. Offenses against the chief were not punishable by death. There was no written law; all laws were retained in memory and were handed down by tradition from father to son. Regarding religion, in the opinion of Rocha Pombo, it was a mixture of beliefs and prayers that they had learned by rate, and of African superstitions, it being certain that they had crude chapels and big crosses at their places of reunion. Fetishism was not permitted. (He-fer to "Confederacio do Emundor" official publication of the government of Pernambue, published in 1929, pages 42 to 44.) It will be understood after this publication of Coloured people have received away slaves from the mills and from the farms, succeeded in war for it in the mid-1800s, and initiated 29 expeditions, some of Hollanders and some of Portuguese, that would be a legitimate part of an outline as a legitimate fact, in 1657, the governor, Pedro de Oliveira, officially recognized and supported Dr. Ulrich's regiment within a state, sounding an entreaty to the government of their colony, the cause of negotiation a treaty of peace. But, as we are informed by this notable historian, it was this treaty which led to the majority of the Negroes led by the caseload the discord between them, providing a perilous insurrection against a suspicious death and was seized by the great King Zamah, who again opened the campaign against government performers deeds that a suspicious popular tradition and which became legend—deeds which caused the republic to endure. In years longer, 7,000 men, composed of professional soldiers, volunteers and "dandelifers" from Sao Tom, the survivors of the war, were trained in the fierce battle, but committed suicide, their eldest at their head, by jumping from a high mountain. The Pernamuan historian finishes the chapter from which we have quoted the above paragraph by group of fugitive slaves constituted organized and developed a republic which gained sufficient prestige to form an army as nation with nation, and which left ineffective marks of its intelligence and capability—marks that indicate great contributions to our history. In concluding this article, the sole purpose of which is to render homage to the author of a work that was written in the piece from the Archaeological, Historical and Geographical Institute of formanuco, the writer will save with Oliveira Martins, that "The Troy of the Negones was wiped out here, and the people here remained and will remain as a noble protest of human liberty." REVOLTS IN U. S. This insurrection, unlike any new ever in this country prior to abolition days, was successful because the slaves of Brazil were so poor that they learned and practiced cooperation and were loyal to the cause of 1899. Even as far back as the early days of the American Revolution, completely subdued, planned and attempted convoys to overthrow their slave masters, but all of them were discovered and put down before the majority of cases, to some slave traitor who carried word of the plans to the whites. This 1757 insurrection in Pitt Beaufort, North Carolina, was discovered before it had gained much broadway. Several slaves were arrested and severely whipped. Five slaves in a construction company then found themselves when 1,000 slaves armed themselves and marched on the city of Richmond, Va., but were defeated when a man continued into the town.

Howard university Hampton and Raise Teach The $5,000,000 campaign of Hampton and Tuskegee institutes has taken on new life since the announcement of the conditional gift of George Eastman of Rochester last week. They are to receive $2,000 if they successfully raise the prescribed amount. One of the chief aims at the drive is to foster a plan for the imagination of a training school for teachers. In a statement to the press for, Aron Thelps Stokes, chairman of the special gifts committee of the Hampton-Tuskegee endowment fund, with headquarters at 3 Maldon Lane, said that to make Hampton and Tuskegee self-sustaining and to enable them to develop collective courses in teacher training, accrual-time and home economies are the objects of the campaign. Without college degrees, which require the addition of a four-year course, the graduates cannot legally be appointed in many southern states to high school principalships, and other positions of leadership in Negro education. "In September the general education board offered $500,000 to each of the two schools on condition that the trustees united in the "Hampster Tuskegee Endowment Fund" campaign.

This latter will enable all pupils to make a living upon leaving the Institution. St. Renelie's mission pupils are drawn from many points throughout the country, but its high standing is expressed best through part of a speech made by a prominent Protestant of Milwaukee, who, upon presenting his small daughters to the Sisters to be received into the school, said, among other things: "If my daughters will be as good as the Sisters, that is all I ask.

M. L. II, D. lecturer and philosopher of New York City. He spoke on "Beauty and the Culture of the Splint." The one outstanding thought that remained with those who were fortunate enough to hear this eloquent speaker, was that "Beauty itself is underlined, but that we respond to that which we are habituated, and that is necessary for the body to agree with the soul. Art, is the harmonious marriage of the soul and beauty. Nature is God's art, and art is man's highest --- The speaker suggested that we visit our art galleries more frequently, and instead of spending an hour there, reading aimlessly from one painting to another, to learn as much as possible about one outstanding picture and come away with some definition of understanding of the creative purpose of the artist. Proceeding his lecture, music was furnished by Sammy Stewart's orchestra, their selections ranging from grand opera excerpts to well known concert songs.

MARY CHURCH TERRELL When you call George Washington dragged more dead "First in peace," please remember the slave ship in Boston that a young slave girl was the first person in the world, publicly, to refer to him in that way. It was Phyllis Mr. Wheatsley, a young African process, who wrote a poem in his honor and she had the time in one of the lines addressed him as "First in peace and honours." several Huntington, who resided on an island celebration of Invasion dependence was silent. If you had been walking down the streets of Boston, Mass., one day in 1761 you might have seen a poor little black girl, wrapped only in a piece of carpet, shivering with the cold. If you had asked, "What is your name, little girl?" she would not have understood you, and even if she had understood and answered your question, her name would have sounded like a little foreigner. She had been born in Africa, had been stolen from her native land, packed like a sardine in countries, countries, and suffered the horrors and tortures of what was called "the mudle passage," and had been in this country in the soldier's arm, in a slave A lady who wanted to train a poem servant to take the place of an old woman went to the slave market in Boston to see what she could find in that line. The pathohie face of the shivering woman strongly that she thought her in spite of the fact that her little body appeared so frail. She came from that time she was reading the most difficult passages in the Bible. Six years from the day she was sold she had become a teacher in the English language she had written a poem to the University of Cambridge, nine years from the day she was published a poem on the death of a distinguished clergyman, and 12 years after entering Mrs. Wheatley's service her volume of poems was published. Phyllis was very fortunate in having Mrs. Wheatley as her mistress, Mrs. Wheatley to give her a ride, rousing, rising a note of thanks to that lady. The law did not force her to be merciful to the little slave and nobody expected her to give the girl a chance. Mrs. Wheatley gave her the special servant of Mrs. Wheatley twins, Nathaniel and Mary, who one day Mary saw the little African trying to form letters on a wall with a piece of chalk. She doubtless loved her. She tried and the progress made by her black pupil was the sensation of that time. What a debt of love she had to Mary Wheatley. Very soon Phyllis began to write poems "for her own amusement" the preface says, "says her master, her own curiosity led her to it." Phyllis did not want or where she could be. She only knew she came from somewhere in Africa. She must have been born either in 1755 or 1758. She only thought. She was probably between 7 and 8 years of age when she was Maria Laura B.

All was quiet on his return and the electric button was pressed and he beheld a room filled with guests. Solos, in order the balance of the evening dragged more dead than alive from the slave ship in Boston. When she was 20 years old her health began to fall and her friends good. Mr. Wheatley happened to be going abroad on business and he took Phyllis with him to England, where she had the time of her young life. Huntington, was received by the lord mayor of London and by Lord Dartmouth, was foted, potted and honored by the culture and aristocracy of Great Britain. Her book, entitled "Poems on Various Subjects, Religious and Moral, by Phyllis Wheatley, Negro Servant of Mr. John Wheatley of Boston in New England," was published during this visit in 1773. It was dedicated to her English hostess and patroness as follows: "To the Right Honourable the Countess of Huntington, the following pares are much cultified, very humble and devoted servant. Phyllis Wheatley." Thus It was that the Wheatley family became immortalized, for it would long not be seen for the glory of a slave. In order to prove to those who really write the poems, Mr. Wheatley had some of the most distinguished citizens in New England, and he really wrote the preliminary pages of the book, his excellency, Thomas Hirschman, governor, and the lieutenant-governor, citizens signed their names to the following statement: "Phyllis, as young Negro girl, who was but a few years old, was born in her brittarian from Africa, has ever since and is now under the disadvantage of serving as a slave in a slave-trader's colony, by some of the best judges and is thought qualified to write them." On the day Phyllis received a letter from the punder-in-chief of the army and the future president of the United States, in which he complained her upon being declared she exhibited striking courage and come to Cambridge or near headquarters, he wrote her. "I shall be happy in her wars and whom nature has been so liberal and beneficent in her disdain. I am, with great respect, your excellent, humble servant, George When she was about 25, Phyllis married John Peters, a man of her own face, and seems to have been married for many years. After her marriage and was working in an ordinary boarding house she died, D. September 15, in her 31st year. This postscript was a full-blooded account of her life and the treatments cannot be attributed to the admixture of Caucasian or any other blood in her veins. If any woman being black, white, or brown, has ever made such marvelous intellectual progress and achieved such great literary success in such a short time under similar circumstances as Phyllis, she records the records of history do not show it.

RACE RELATIONS IMPROVING, SAYS ANNUAL REPORT Alabama, Ga., Dec. 26- A comprehensive survey of what inter-racial committees throughout the South are doing to promote better relations between the races is embedded in the annual report just issued for distribution by the Commission on inter-racial Cooperation, with headquarters in this city. Entitled "Progress in Race Elections," the report is a 20-page pamphlet packed with stories of concrete achievements in better educational facilities, health campaigns, anti-bynching crusades, legal aid, adjustment of differences, provision of public utilities, the study of race relations in church and organizations in this field and the cooperation of the press. All the Southern covered by the survey, and results are chiefly reached down into a great number. According to the report, the provision of better schools has been a closely by efforts for better sanitation, military accommodations, in the courts, agricultural training, the care of delinquents, justice in the courts, agricultural advantages essential to the development of any race in character and education. The report points with effect gratification in the reduction of 25 per cent in line with the last two years from 25 in 1922 to 1923 to 19 in the current year. No small measure of credit for this result, says the report, is due the newspapers for the "great" benefit of the public interest. The report, which has helped to make sentiment against this crime "the general attitude of the papers, continues the report, has been sympathetic and helpful. Most encouraging, says the report, is the great change in public sentiment relative to this whole question that has come about in recent years, resulting in better conditions along the line. It is said that in all the Southern states the per capita expenditures for education are now two, three and in one case five times as much as 10 years ago. The Commission on Inter-racial Cooperation was organized by a group of Southern leaders shortly after the world war in the effort to stem the tide of race conflict which followed the烟 from the country that was the erbts having been met, it turned a attention to the permanent improvement of conditions and attitudes.

Advice to the Wise and Otherwise Dear Princess, I have read your column so much, so now I am asking for help for myself. I have a wife, who left me in April to go to see her sister, and now I don't want to stay here, but now I don't want from her. But you think she means right? Or must I get me another wife? She told me he should have another wife. I should, I did all that I could for her, but she would not do anything. You think I should get one who will care for me? Memphis Blues. Your wife, inquariently intends to remain away from you; if not permanently, she will stay until she thinks she has taught you a lesson. There is something you have done that has cooled her love for you to such an extent that she can live apart from you and still be happy. If she has already proved an unsatisfactory wife, who neglected you while you shouldered the burden of a bad winner, why do you still remain away, and the loss often she writes to you, the more esteemed procedures and the sooner you can get another wife why may make you happy. Dear Princess Mysteria: Will you phone me a morning amib. I am here. I have been married twice. My present husband home and I attend to all my business myself, I don't ask him to look after me, right for me to ask a preserver or any other man to my home without asking for it. I don't have a little jealousy, but don't insure not watch me. He don't have much to saw me in the he up. When I get ready to go I don't ask him if I can or not. I want a happy home — A. L. J. Are you right? No. I'll say you are not. How can you expect a happy home if you make yourself master and exclude your husband altogether? A home is like a business. It requires a sound foundation or it can't thrive. There must be harmony and close contact, and a single can. If your husband is not capable of assisting you in planning and maintaining your home you should not have him. If you liberate his knowledge of business you can at least have him. You should be able to do well meaning wife will do this. No will should invite or entertain any man, preacher or what not, in her home, unless she has her husband's permission. How can she retain her self-respect, a sense of her uncle's of self-reliance, and her will to the world? Yes, I imagine that your home must be unhappy, with your own description of your conduct. You sing all of the time when he is at home. It does not say you are a man who can't be alone. Some women, very rare nowadays, You will look for baby one of these days, and he'll be alone. Maybe you are trying to chase him away. Well, if you are, keep your present aattets to the front, and you will be a happy one. I mean must first make her husband happy, and she will have their done her duty. It's happiness cannot come from selflessness. You are selfish and when you have a sense of the world you have a sense of the life. There him in your place, and try to imagine how you would feel and trying to have treatment from him. For your own sake, I hope you change. Dear Princess, I read your column adjective. Please help me. I am a long married woman. I was called upon to time to be separated from my husband and to marry him. Prince this is board from him but once since. Prince wrote every walk, sometimes twice, you think he has forgotten me so you won't want me to know it. What most I will give him is a Wife. I still have Wife. You cannot help being worried over his pest or refusal to communicate with you that uncreatives you you that uncreatives not what the reason may be. I advise you to inquire if he is yet an employee there, you can write and ask him to accept what the trouble is, this doubly form of this. The fact that your letters do not return to you is proof that they you may be sure he is the engineer of all sorts of duty when his wife goes away. He does not forget her exactly, life, and his stronger self is not strong enough to keep his wife from being PART 1—PAGE too. Hope on, until you see you are foolish to hope. My Dear Princess: I am an ex- cluse someone sometimes that I wonder if there is a man somewhere who lives longer, too. I am cultured and edu- cated and the man must be the same. I prefer a man of 29 to 45—lose. I am sure there are numbers of the sort of man you seek to know. I hope it it and reply to it. When he does, lose, depend on me to let you in on it, im- mediately. Dear Princess: I would like to cor- respond with a woman who is a graduate of some music school. I am a retired army musician and an at present government employee. I am a widower. -Bort. This letter speaks for itself, so I need say nothing. I play the part of sta- tion master, and as rapidly as the mall contracting parties. Dear Princess: Please help me. I am a man of 27, and I have been made a new boy, but I love her. She is only 18, and has never had her. She has had all kinds of trouble. She has been in the reformatory, not in the school, and has not been in the much possible. What must I do—Luke? Science has proven that children are born with inherent traits of good and bad, and have some offenses wonderful persons are parents to horrible children. The early sexual part of a child's life. It does not always make of the child what it does instil in the young mind the things that are called right and wrong, child and that type of child is never complete until the child, am after years of infancy, but during her course in life, has her pride, therefore she is not made her bold and brazen, also has her pride, therefore she is not made her bold and brazen, also has her pride, therefore you are not being asked for advice, so tell you candidly, you are stacking your clothes for yourself if you take a chance on life. I was Princess. I am in love with a married man of 24. I am 18. He says he does not love his wife, still they live together. He says he is run away with him and later marry. He seems to love me, but I am afraid. Am I doing wrong by letting him love me? My mother does not know. He says I must never tell anyone, until I am willing to go away with him—Demi-Virgin. A married man and a demirevigin. Oh! how terrible, and the eventual end will be worse. He is mostly in love and, although you are old enough to be conscious of your mistake. You look weebly, experience, but you are not wildly, because you know of his wife and, you are afraid that he will not keep his promise to you on her account. He gives with her still he says he does not love her. How many girls have listened to that same story and lived to be sorry. No, my child, he does not mean to do what he says. He is just another seconded. He intends to drag you down to the brink of destruction, and push you over. You will let him. Please don't let him. You are able to save yourself from him by telling mother, and let her do as any mother would do to save her girl—cruelly, him on the cross of his own death.

Y.—For the first time—the very first time, if you please—the courts of the State of New York are being asked to consider whether the services of a Colored performer are unique, extraordinary and impossible of duplication on the stage. The performer who will thus create the first precedent is unlily to the Colored Race as to originality, spontaneity and unsurprising elevations of shuffling feet in the various forms of dance in which so many exels is donny Hudkins, Mishah Hudkins was formerly a comodity-loving Amateur of the Bubba in Chocatale, Pandies, the of the totaler, the of the Amateur, a featured "carpet" at the Cleg Alabam, estivable Nite club. Council for Mishah Hudkins are Kendler & Goldstein of 1540 Broadway. They have already won their case in the Supreme Court in Injunction proceedings begun by C. R. Whitney, and yesterday they served with notice of appeal to the Amateur division, first department, writes Ashley Boeing in the New York Telegraph. The title of the case in the Supreme court of New York county is Robert C. Whitney, and the same, as well as John Hutchins, Lee Shubert, Jacob J. Shubert, Winter Garden conson. and Ar Whitney is the producer of "Chocolate Managers of Hudines," Nathan Borkin represents the plaintiff. In an annual interview, he describes his support of his application for an induction the plaintiff says that on June 15, 2013, he was slept by Whitney and Hudines whereby the Colored performer was the run of the Slissie & Blake show, known as "Chocolate Pandies" as soon as Hudines could obtain his release. It was further agreed, according to Whitney, that Whitney would pay for oblained and it was necessary. Whitney continues, to rewrite the show and the affair they declares: "Hudines was the lift of the show, people who with me and told me they enforced Hudines's performance with theatrical business has extended over 20 years and I perceive there, I have never seen a dancer who could do the original and funny, entertaining, original and in a class by himself. It would be almost the same him with any other Colored actor. The plaintiff" either alarms that a dancer announced that he was going to leave the show and found that Hudines had slammed a contract with the One cannot hold his brother down In the low stitch of life. Without reminding there with him In insurance and sirtle. The burden, then, which would drag down The whose deeds are good, is raised, and he will surely climb Who lifts the brotherhood.

The man whose down is filled with He climbs both day and night; And to the man whose he shouts: "Help me, seek the light!" To Tatara Phillus, M. D. Nashville, Teen. Dear Gen. Tony, Dr. Phillus, who wrote the above lines, is one of the South's most promising physicians. He passed the difficult examinations of West Virginia with the highest honors. He has been in Nashville with the Phillips Institute, which has very active training to the advancement of the colored people. He welds a positive civic and social affairs and a strong sense of the lamentable week has had a GAF very depressing 8. T. Whitney effect upon the doctor and Colored people of the city. It will not be sur- prising if the doctor transfers his field of endeavor to another city. A like sentiment prevails among others in professional life in the city. The law- making white citizens of Nashville are as much incensed about the lawless outbreak as the Colored. It has been the pride and boast of the city that a inching should not and could not occur in Nashville, but it did occur and the feeling prevails among the Col- ored people that the offenders will not be punished. Had it been Colored men who so wantonly flaunted the law the falls would now be overcrowded with suspects, so they say. To date of this writing not an arrest has been made. Dr. Campbell is one of the youngest and most forceful ministers that has stock. He is a graduate of Union College, has a magnetic personality, and is sent us the first written invitation to attend church services that we have received from members of the company attended by Dr. Campbell. Dr. Campbell leaves the minister at the close of the year in practice that he will make his mark in his chosen profession. The doctor's car company during our stay in Xaville. State Normal We attended chapel services at the State Normal school at the invitation services, which we thoroughly enjoyed students under which he was in recess double the salary of the teacher, and the season of the war of Hungains this production of Hungains was being gained; that more than $55,000 has been spent in the preparation of this production; that there has been a loss in the box other receipts of more than $22,000 there. Therefore Whitney asked for an injunction "enjoining the defendant, rendering his services to any other person, firm or corporation as an actor, leisure, musical comedy, musical recitales or other entertainment or from the plaintiff." The court of Hungains first submits the Boston contract and further stated that on or about July 10, 1853, submitted another contract to Judgment that Whitney wanted him to alienate the plaintiff from the plaintiff's contract for the alleged reason it was not a run-of-the-lay contract, that for the weeks of July 16, July 27, August 2, August 3 and August 16 he was required to act against his protest; that a notice was posted in Atlantic City stating the show was not being performed, and that 16, and was to be called again for rehearsal on Monday, August 27, at the "That the plaintiff attempted in this case and yet not pay him for that merger." He denies that he tendered any services to the Shuberts and has asserted that since he left the plaintiff he has been playful. For an answer to the "unfair and concerning the allegations on the College performer, counsel for the defendant exhibited a single instance in which Hudlinsa was featured. Hudlinsa or embalmed in newspaper advertisements, electric lights, bill post-renamed channels of mutilation." He says that the only names ever named of Stieke & Blake. Judge Michel of the Supreme Court following these decisions a few days ago assumming the conventions of counsel "Motion is denied. Under the circumstances disclosed in the summary, no motion was denied to an intimation pending it." The immediate effect of a decision against Hulinski would have been to stop him from doing his double shuffle.

We are honored to count Dr. Hale as one of our many friends. We wish every student and member of State Normal Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. AGAIN A shriek, a groan, a stiffed prayer; A roar, a roar, a roar; A scene of gunshots split the air. Then—silence once again. Like skimming wolves, these man- formed beasts. Their eyes glare, satisfied. Their grille galled, but hate in- creased. Then slink away and hide. Night birds, in play, softly mourn; Their bodies swayed in the wind; Lifeblood rushes slowly and tendle to the ground. "It's not the mutilated clay. It's not the mutilated clay. But cruel hearts of men that slay. That need your sympathy. "Ah! murmurs Christ, and precious ears. He forsakes for wavier men; "Io!" after twenty hundred years. I crucified acanthi! T. W. Whitney. Merry Christmas to All from the State St. Gosh! Ain't that something? The first present we received was from good old General Tony. Don't tell me that Christmas is obsolete, that the Christmas spirit does not prevail. Gen. Tony is always full of the spirit—I mean the Christmas spirit. Tony may not be strong for the church; after all, it seems to be the church that has lost much of its true Christian spirit, but when it comes to non-sectarian spirit, put Tony in the van. I've visited the Old Roll Top Desk and I know. Overzealous materialists have robbed us of our Santa Claus, blotted, study-befogged modernists, would even rob us our Christ, but what care we whether or not Christ was divine or human, whether He was conceived of the Holy Ghost or born of Joseph and Mary? They all admit He lived, and lived a spotless and blameless life; that He gave us a standard of Christianity that the churches would do well to follow more closely. He gave us the Golden Rule and the Sermon on the Mount, which make Him worthy of love, obedience, faith and devotion. If Christ is a myth, then He is a hero from the valley of ignorance, superstition and unbelief to the very mountain of undisturbed with our myth. If the Christmas spirit ever dies the church must bear the shame. The church that quenches about the baptism, that makes amendments to God's word; that makes negation, that has robbed the dewl of his hell and would minimize the omnipotence of God; that until we punish them know where we're at. A little more Christian spirit in the church will resonate apart—S. T. Whitney.

As soon as all have the same toils and strife, no particular person has any heavier burden to carry. Other. When you sum it up we all have the world of opportunities, so rear what we respect all mankind and prepare the rainy day. The man who is so abased with his troubles is to be congratulated.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER ARE RAGE PICTURES A FAILURE? T. O. B. A. houses that will take first From what I can understand, S. H. Pudley in "Easy Money" has played the managers than on the first engagement. If this is true, it shows that. Now there are others: Charles Galpin, well known and made famous as Emma and the Along, and "Running" Walt fame and Harry Fiddler, well known vaudeville three stars, surrounded properly, would make other stars for each picture personality and ability and who soon could be starred. In pictures, the female star that we have, Still, Little Edna Merton who played the leads, and all the other pictures produced by the Rex Production corporation, soon become a real star. What we really need is stars to star the pictures, the day the day is gone when people will pay to see a Colored picture simply because it is a Colored Producers of Colored pictures won't deliver the goods. If they do, there is money to be made for the producers. Another picture that drew well, was the picture in which Mechaux featured Sam Langford. It drew because Sam was known and the public wanted to see him. I think the title of the picture was The Brute I cannot recall as to whether or not I am right, as it has been some time ago since I saw it, but I can say that the Dudley and Langford pictures sure played to his business, that is why I say get start to star the pictures—Billy Booster. Washington, D. C.-Without fear of contradiction I can say that the Colored profession has done more for the Colored profession than any organization ever organized in the past. few months on account of personal conditions which have not afforded there is going to be better conditions soon. But the organization is not very old and it takes time, but what we really need is to have an organization more strength. I will ask all of the members that this organization has left behind to know what we have done for them, as it is no disgrace and it warrants it. We have done the good and the necessity of an organized lunch of actors. Fell in the Joining fee will be $25. John now, I am warning all delinquent actors, your new wardry by that time will automatically become suspended and when it will pay now. It is our aim to help you when you are not able to bring you to it when you are disabled. Surely you can see the necessity of holding and backing back? You are simply standing your own light and holding actor and accress a member of the wonderful organization known as the Colored actors' union. S. H. Dudley.

I note that there are fewer Colored pictures made each year. I think we have enough Colored pictures that they would draw. In my mind, I think the failure is due to the fact that the Colored picture is now more starring the pictures and then, too, the photography and display of all the Colored pictures I have seen. I must take my hat off to the five froes have produced several good ones. Why did they stop producing, or have they to my mind. If the producers would get recognized stars to star in a movie, they would draw; and if they draw, it is a cliché the films will look like the Colored theaters will look like. I have my opinion on the picture, the production corporation, starting the well-known S. H. Dudley. Look the picture, and it played to more money for the picture, and it played to more money for the picture, and it played to more money produced up to this time, of course. I know it would cost a lot of money to produce this picture, and as he is connected with many other things that need his personal attention, I make four pictures a year, and a fund beamed, as we know Dudley will draw, and the theater managers want draw, buy the Dudley products for all first acts in the country in the country in the other runs.

But the author has a wife and son, the latter is dependent upon him. As this work is performed impressively far off, Johnson seemed impossible, far off, Johnson to the entire transcultural trip. The incident was unarmed when he brushed off the berserton, author of *Alloy*, the first all-Colored play which was seen on the years ago at the Bifur, to become a play that was suggested by the officials of the Wroxbeth center, but could not be performed through other contract preventing. Anderson's play, incidentally, deals read it describe it as having a strong central theme, somewhat along the plot dealing with Christian Science and New Thought. Anderson's play played to aberserton that he had had only four years schooling, a remarkable fact.

There is a full supply of melody and mirth packed into the two and one-half hours. There is no lacking in quantity of entertainment and in criticism can be made of the quality. Nothing more attractive has been seen upon the 1921 issue. The setting of the orange plush drop, showing the "Smart Set" Minstrels company's ear is something in the way of an innovation in ministreley. Manager Holtkamp has brought out all the richer qualities of the show. He has also intervened all the very latest novelties with the better class of comedy. The resolution of the latest song hits by the corps of balladists and its meddian have received his careful attention. A minstrel show without jokes is like an old man without crutches. Following are the solstites with the show: Harry Millard, Irie tenor Frank Smiley, Miss Mader Mark and John Churchill. Each number received Frank Keith, who opens the elite with five minutes of talk, can take first rank with the best in his line of work. He seems to know what to say and when to say it. When it comes to handling the black and white ivories of a piano, Charles Nickerson is right at home. Rubber Jack's quartet took numerous encours. Miss Nelle Worley, female contortionist, undertook some very difficult attairs, these getting her much praise. John Churchill, slack wire artist, performed some very clever and difficult feats on the thin strand of black wire. An afterday was put on under the title of "The Akatum Undertaking Company."

Special mention must be made of Dianne Mary Richards, the tree dancer; Hotel Mayer, leading lady, and strawberry Russell and his pal, Sam, who kept the house roaring. Members of the First Eaters, 25th Infantry, are proud to beat the fact that Leon Herriff, separate saxophone player of the jazz orchestra, was at one time a member of the headquarters company, band section of this regiment. While in the city he was the house guest of Staff Seat, and Mrs. G. E. Saunders. The entire troupe after the show motored out to Camp Harry J.

Y.—Trouble is being up on the "midnight performance" thing. The idea of giving an audience the most popularity among the musicians and producers of Colored shows yet protests by some of the principals have resulted in a performance unless the occasion is considered unusual, according to "Variety," is understood that Florence Mills, with "From Dixie to Broadway," now on Broadway, was one of the first of the best known and highest paid Colored stars to enter a competition, the regular weekly midnight show. Uptown houses, especially those catering largely to Colored parade performances, night show for some time, and its popularity resulted in its continuance. Among artists working until 830 a.m. and on Saturday, I believe the presentation of two consecutive performances in a single night of a musical show is too much of a physical landmark, despite its box office ad- Boomeranging The regular show participants, and this also applies to the vaudeville houses that are now offering the multi-venue show.

"Extra shows" are oftentimes considered a most useful and necessary thing, but they are not always a week is beginning to draw outside comment and professional contempt that is "boomerangming" against its audience, especially as a weekly proposition.

From that time on, he claims she insisted upon attending social affairs given by them and invited them to their home, which is located in an exclusive neighborhood.

Even when I was not on account of the temperature, but on account of the pepper contained in them, they make them hot. I was in a restaurant where else. As far as eating them is concerned they are just like a torchlight procession—they burn all the pepper, heat the meat and his committee called, and after apologizing for the intrusion they stated the reason for the attack, though the citizenry of Santa Cruz had set aside a long ?

He swam to the rope and was about to dive under it and proceed when he was startled. The sergean got out of the water and feel from one end of the canoe to the other, disappearing again. He stuck to shore again and reported the occurrence to the authorities. This had occurred about 20 minutes before people in all had disappeared and it was safe to say that every one of them had fallen a victim to the vortex appetite of this deep sea monster. Would I come and rid the water front of this terrible creature? The request was put to me point blank and at the same time the mayor added to reward any successful attempt that I made with purse of 20,000 pesos, 10,000 pesetas and a jazzer of 10,000 pesetas. The mayor offers ever made to me and I told the mayor and his followers to come back in three hours for my and their order a couple of bottles of solzter and some cracked ice and lemon peeling.

There was a whole section of my affections. A great barbecue of dozen hops and a thousand chickens were served. It was festive which I liked.

I put on a one-piece bathing suit. It was of maroon with white rings around the bottom of the tights, and if I do say it myself, I was a red-hot turnin' taking me up one side and down the other. I got a great hand as I stepped from the dressing room and made it out upon the bench. Thirty-two thousand blue hundred and seventy-four people were sent to see me stunt my stuff. The band played and the cheer which I got must have been heard all the way to Havana. I made a graceful dive off the spring-board and struck boldly out toward the canoe moored beyond the life zone. When I reached the rope I hesitated for a moment, rising high in the water and waving my hand at the people on the shore. With a dozen powerful strokes I reached the canoe and climbed aboard. There was not a bit of breeze stirring and hardly a ripple upon the surface of the water, which was so clear that I could easily see the different colored pebbles on the sandy bottom, despite the fact that the winter was something like 40 fathoms deep. I leaned over the side of the canoe and scrutinized the ground beneath me. I noticed, just off to the OLD TOM right, a thick growth of the sea-fern and at the same time I saw a group of sea-ferns on the surface. Steadying myself I peered with all the power of a fine eyelash and what a beautiful beating, for there in the center of the growth, staring toward me with its two horrible eyes, each moving its great tentacles forward, dragging its horrible body along the floor of the ocean, was the man-made recovery from my surprise one of the terrible arms shot up above the gun less than the teeth part of a second had shot out over the other.

In fact, if the health care worker had a set missed me from the canoe and I had to jam my emergency brakes on full force to keep from tearing all the front out of the building used as a dressing room. The maver and his committee soon called and I told them that I had located my quarry. I had him call in to retrieve one and one of military bearing by the name of Chickerino de Gunbo. I instructed him to fetch me four pairs of hand-carrying jacks. I put on a clean bathing suit and after taking a couple of shots of Old Tom as a preventive from catching cold I entered a small room which I had had tied hand and foot and greased all over with slipper-em oil.

In a couple of more minutes I had landed the monster tried to release its hold and escaped, but he found it impossible. The struggle he put up however, was not easy.

Rogers BY CHARLES H. WILLIAMS Secretary-Treasurer C. I. I. A. Hampton, Va., Dec. 13.-For the past three years or more members of Harvard university faculty and board of athletic control have from time to time expressed the opinion that unless some changes were made in the C. I. I. A. rules with reference to eligibility, the university would have freedom in playing athletes who might enter the university from the members of the C. I. I. A. A. she would withdraw from the association. At the 15th annual meeting of the association, which was held at Howard's athletic center, Howard's representative served notice on the association that Howard would withdraw unless she was re-elected. Howard's representative who had been members of association transited not of collegiate grade that is, members of C.I.A. L. teams against Howard in athletic competition would be allowed to have four years more competition, should they enter Howard. The association will not be allowed to but sent a committee—Dr. W. G. Alexander, W. A. Rogers—and C.I. L. authorities to Howard in Washington on May 10, 1921. At this meeting a chance was made for permission to play C. L. A. athletes on their entrance into Howell, including the committee will grant it with Howard, interpreted the rules appropriate to the interpretation of Howell. Six sections 2 and 1 under eligibility, about which the committee will discuss, will be followed. "No student who has been a member of a varsity team of an institution in Howell, including the committee, of a varsity team in another institution in the association until one year shall be admitted to the former institution." No student shall be admitted to any institution in more than one course. In an intercollege contest who has condition in more than one course, a C. L. A. A. team, will not have that condition against him in case he is not of any other institution in the association. Should he play more than one course, a C. L. A. A. team, will not be subjected from his four years of participation, on eligibility to be interested as follow: "No man who has represented an institution in another course, or represents any other institution in the association to which he may travel." The question of interpretation of the rules was raised by Howard playing Robert to Miller. Mr. Miller played at Union when he played Howard, and he guarded. He played Howard at the beginning of this school term. He was a member of an association teams which they had a right to do. If they so desired. This team was on Nov. 1, 1935. Andersson protested Miller, but Howard played him under the same conditions. Andersson was authorised to withdraw him stating it was simply a question of whether another member of the association After the Kentucky game telegram addressed asking for an opinion on the Miller say. There was unanimity in the opinion. Howard Lincoln game was at this time that Lincoln sent Hawkins to Miller game with thanksgiving the would not play Howard on Thanksgiving day. Howard Lincoln game on Thanksgiving day, but contended that her position caused she was unwilling to accept the responsibility of disappointing the great expense to attend the game. On Nov. 2 Howard wound the game up to the annual meeting Howard was at the point of holding a conference. Since the results of the conference did not put athletic control on Dec. 12 the following telegram to the association at "Mr. Charles H. Williams: Howard announces its withdrawal from the association." This step by the impossibility of standards in the association, and how that our pleasant role contributed to this was aimed for of F.

We feel that our stand on the question involved is correct, and that we will have a public support just as we are supposed by the members of our association. The association feels that it is an excellent upon it to say to Howard that it has but done its duty in attempting to carry on the public and better of our association, and in furtherance of that policy, cannot in indifference to our ideas of true sportsmanship, arrange athletic events under conditions which bestow the integrity of the association. Will good will toward Howard the association trusts she will reconduce her withdrawal out of her desire to serve the best interests of our youth in the educational institutions. SPORTS BY J. L.

L. I. A. reams,比赛完毕, the championship in football for the 1921 season to Lincoln University. Much credit is due to Coach Young, his assistants and the squad of Lincoln Lions for the high, clean brand of football. Lincoln's record of this season is really very impressive. Of the six association games played in Lincoln turned in deelive veterans in live and a hard fought a to the with Virginia Union Below is the final standing of the E. I. A. reams in 1921 competition: 1924 Record Won Lost Tied Lincoln ..... 5 Union ..... 6 Hampton ..... 4 Virginia Normal ..... 4 Virginia Seminars ..... 3 Shaw ..... 2 St. Uni ..... 0 Howard ..... 0 Note: The Howard-Petersburg and Howard-Hampton games were determined for the 1921 season, respectively, due to the E. I. A. reams in the contest. In picking the all-C. I. I. A. teams for the game, no simple task, as in the case of picking a champion presents itself. With the all-C. I. I. A. teams, out out high class teams. It can be basically understand just what a difficult task is. The system requires an all-C. I. I. A. team. Under the system of league games, where each coach has the authority to select officials of this district submit a team to the commission, and the commission then rates the on the basis of points, the task solves. A. F. K. A. of Lincoln, the outstanding player of the year is the only player with coaches and officials and is then forered captain and halfback of the first Crudin and Lancaster, respectively, were the 32 and 31 votes, respectively, second to stand head and should over the host of good ends on the different teams of the association. Crudin, with his education too, was perhaps the most valuable team captain in the last selection. Furthermore, captain of the Union, with 13, both put up strong games all season, but could not quite match the speed yet brilliant playing of the Lords' side of end. Bill of Shaw, with 25 votes, and Lee of Hampton, with 21 votes, get the call of the tackle positions on the first team. Both of these men were considered throughout the whole season. In their well directed line play and all components such with high respect of them. Rakesh, also of Union, with 29, and Deckes of Howard, with 15 points, both first-class tackles had good seasons, but lack the autonomy of the first two mentioned. At the end there were several scrummin, all playing a high brand of foot work, and in a necker-a selection seems to work a hardly an outcome. Followers of Lincoln, with 11 votes, however, make no good a pair as one can ask for a vote. The Hampton with 13, and ELLARD of Shane, with eight votes, really deserve their position on one At center several real star performers displaying in general the best brand of football ever seen at this position. Morgan of Lincoln, with two of the best centers the C. L. A. B. ever had over the years, and the great back and full bottle for two honors at the field generate position.

The strenuous practice through which the "St. C," five is being put by their trainers in the Parthenon on W. 133d St. indicates that a hard fight is being looked forward to because of out information concerning who shall start against the fastly Virginia five due to the large amount of competition of those who might not be chosen. In the semifinals the work of the team revealed the "ZTZ" revealed a splendid amount of team work among the Parish House boss who this year, as previously have, has played in the 2012 playing teams to engage in the court game.

Davis chairman of the Howard university board of athletic control in Washington. "It is apparent that the news release to the various newspapers of the country sent out by the Hampton Institute, the wider announcements from the university, the A. A., was designed to reach the newspapers prior to the receipt by officials of Howard university of the C. L. A. A. Williams of Hampton institute secretary-treasurer of the C. L. A. A. This is all the more apparent in view of the fact that the letter from Lawrenceville, Va., Dec. 13, 1921, it was not mentioned in 3:30 p.m. the morning of Dec. 15, and that, too, from Hampton institute instead of from Lawrenceville. The news release, Dr. Bates says, does not securely state the position of the Howard university authorities. The position of the authorities of Howard university is more accurately stated in the letter of the Howard board of athletic control of Nov. 25 to the U.S. A., which is not quoted in the news release and is as follows: Howard, although haynes no second-army school, makes no demand that see-only students in other institutions be debarred from their teams. In such a situation, attitude of ours, the organization takes the best of its efforts to keep in place a list, and may in force upon by this list you that no student, no pre-prer-army school or college, who was a member of a C. I. A. team the year before shall play during the next year at Howard. It is and has been ear-bell of that a freshman, and has been a member of a college, in the right to play until we ourselves adopt a three-year rule. We compared the matter by screening at our conference on May 19, 1921, that "a pre-prerarmy student who plays one year or a C. I. A. team will not have that experience again, and will be in-service with our other institution, the college of any other institution of the association."—Art. VI. see 11 (A). This pre-prerarmy student appeared in the printed 1921 rule. It did not appear in the 1923 rules. It was put in at our influence and until nearly agreed to. Yet when the first-year-rate student was the associate without notice, voted unanimously to re-eliminate its agreement. A more complete statement of the Howard university position in this matter will be furnished the members of the C. L. A. A. Gotham Junior High Wins 120-Lb. Relay Race Brownlin, N.

Both are strong in breaking up and hitting through interference forward kicks. An adopt at receiving Tackles—Living of Morrone and Illey of Atlanta university are great offensive and defensive players who each other that it has forced the attack to give him a wide berth, and his endurance is remarkable. Guards—Wingfield of Morris Brown are the greatest of defensive guards ever developed in the South. Jennings sits through to get his man, while Wingfield charges his opponent. Center—Tackle at center has an ideal build for the position. He is a steady player, opens holes and drives forward, utilizing every pound of his forward passes over the center of the line and can disguise plays. Quarterback—Savage of Fisk is unquestionably a quarterback. Tackles eliminated due to having been encapsulated by pneumonia in the middle of the season, is the outstanding quarterback of the general was the greatest asset Fisk had on defense and offense. In addition to being a brachy quarterback, he is one of the fastest men on the field. Halfbacks—Stevenson of Tuskegee stands out as the class of the Southwestern men, kicking and all-around defensive playing he challenges critics as All-American timber. Stevenson outran, outpressed, outfounded outrun every conference player with whom he came in contact.

Howard university freshman, home on his vacation, and backed up by Buster Lotion, Wardell, chauanne and Bowles, the former stars of Philips, began the few spectators to their feet.

The scram was body vaulted all the way, and the judges decided that a draw the clubmen around would have been just as well satisfied. SECOND TEAM FIRST TEAM --- A B C superb performer ever developed in this conference. As Stevenson's running mate Parker of Talladega is the first player to win the kicking, a good forward jumper, a very fast man with the ball and particularly curvy in his turning and twisting. Talladega—With Bailey of Tuskegee on the fourth man, the backfield of the first team comprises four triple-threat men, as Bailey, too, can do. Parker is well suited with certainty and accuracy. He is one of the best punters and placement kickers in the conference, and in his running game gets mercy on the defense. Parker is also played he goes wildling, twisting one. SECOND TEAM Banks—Duncan of Tuskegee and Knox of Talladega are good types of all-around ends. Knox receives passionately, while Duncan has the conference as a defensive end. Tackle—Lamar of Atlanta university and Robbins of Tuskegee are good players selected on the first charge. Both meet interference well and is a good man to open holes in the opposing line. The latter is a powerful tackler that is fast, speed, and has his end well. Guards—Cook of Morehouse and Jefferson of Tallahassee are given the place. Cook is sturdy and low on water. Jefferson has a good reach and is a sure tackler. Center—Campbell of Alabama State University accurate power and possesses both the speed and weight necessary for a pilot man. Quarterback—Lockheart of Morris State University accurate power and fire and is an excellent tail carrier. Halfbacks—Dorine and Tondee at halves present a formidable combination. The former is a speedy hitter, the latter a much deliver and power, making it exceedingly hard to stop him. The latter is a hard hitter and threads his way with through a broken field. State Norms) completes the second team quartet. He is one of the duds of the season, being a hard plunger, one of the best with accuracy and defensive defense.

COMMISSION IS BLAMED FOR NO JACK-HARRY GO New York, Dec. 26.—In a statement credited to Harry Wills, who is writing a series of articles that are appearing in a local morning paper he comes out point blank in starting that the New York state athletic commission has been more responsible than anyone else thus far in preventing a Dempsey for the heavyweight title. Wills' statement in part follows: "Every one who has followed my career knows of the many obstacles to prevent me from meeting Jack Dempsey in a battle for the heavyweight championship, the athletic commission he lists of those who seek to prevent such a meeting. When a body of such prominence is threatened, it is hard to be wondered at that many references believe they are merely following a good example when they go out of their way to disarm Good Bouts Scheduled at Commonwealth Club New York, Dec. 22—Two cooking 12-foot groups are on tap for the 12-hour club Saturday night.

SECOND TEAM PART 1-PAGE 9 SHAW COACH PICKS AN ALL STATE TEAM North Carolina Star Aggregation Named By HAROLD MARTIN Raleigh, N. C. Dec. 28.—A equal pace with the development of education in the state of North Carolina, the collegiate football teams of the season of 1924 showed marked improvement over their play of former years and the first heel state came into national prominence of unusual proportions. The season developed its quota of stars who are entitled to be ranked on a par with those of former years. From these we are submitting the following all North Carolina state eleven: Name—College M. Wilson, Durham State Normal, R. E. Hall, A. M. University, R. G. Fallham, Shaw university, R. G. Banks, Shaw university, R. G. W. Wilson, Durham State Normal, L. P. W. Kelley, Durham State Normal, L. T. Wiser, A. A. T. college, L. G. Mitchell, Shaw university, R. B. Hall, Livington, R. H. Wijett, St. Augustine, R. B. Coleman, A. T. college, R. B. In commenting on the above team, I would say that at end positions there is no doubt as to the superiority of the Wilson brothers of Durham State. Normal over their opponents, for they had the speed, were hard tacklers, and their ability to receive positive results, and their ability to receive OK/Kelley of Durham State. Not what we have two flash tacklers, experience has made them sturdy in the defense and there is no doubt as to their clearing the way for the summer. Ballard of Shaw and Miller of A. & T. college are master men in the usual positions. They are hard tacklers, and they are the only way for Rocks to match of all the surveys on the gridiron. His acability is wonderful. He is an excellent passer and puts into the pivot position all that could be expected. Field of Livingston and Willett of St. Augustine were the shining lights of their response to the field. The field of the post-player, the post-player effectively for they could skirt the ends, dash off the tacklers and execute forward passes with the proper deception. Both are good hard tacklers and interferers. Coleman of A. & T. college was a full-back of sterling worth for he was a full example of the end-runer type. He was a go-to in the field, and is a powerful late plunger, and was hard to take off his feet. As a kicker from placement, droopless or punt he would be a welcomed asset to the best teams of the country. Mitchell of Shaw undoubtedly stands head and stands out, and the team is a good player, with the state. A head, consistent player, with all the qualifications of a quarterback, he makes a real driver for his team. Small Crowd Hurts Olympic Club Bouts Two Williams and two Bouts scheduled for a right-arm bout at the Entertainers' hall Tuesday night, and the Bouts at the Bout Club Bout 125 Bout 125.

P. SEBENHY YOUNG, JR. Following the well won and thrilling treasured Union victory in the 1923 season, the 1924 season included a knightly title of Hampstead's football sound who won the cherished "H" medal in the 1924 season. Boston Va. as the leader of the 1925 football team of Hampstead Institute. As far as it can be ascertained such a clinical honor as the election of a captain to the team was consecutive years on one team has been awarded only twice before in Hampstead's history. This has made him a marked man on every melding; his powers of leaderhip have made him an asset to the elephant which he has served on his keen football intuition and sterling playing have been evident in many eras. These same qualities in the next football renown. The confidence thus distilled in Puddle is a leader seems to be well placed, and to be respected over other players who work was equally outstanding speaks well for this surfer pilot who leads the "team" by the Hampton Loses Two Players Two of Hampton's main players, Davenport Gunn and the outfielder game for Hampton on Thanksgiving day, having played out their four years under the blue and white, both are now special teams players in the team coaching at Hampton Institute, Gunn, who has also played his four years out in Colored Intercollegiate basketball with the coaching of the basketball coach. Hampton is fortunate by not losing only then, but even when returned to school, Next year Coach Charles L. Williams and Gideon L.

DEFENDER'S PLATFORM FOR AMERICA 1. The Opening Up of All Trades and Trade Unions to Blacks as Well as Whites. 2. The Appointment of a Member of the Race to the President's Cabinet. MY CHOICE If it were given me to choose What I would have the New Year bring I'd ask not for position, fame, Or things to which most mortals elicited I would not seek a kingly power O'er fellow men, nor untold wealth. If it were given me to choose The greatest boon I'd ask is health. WELCOME 1925 WAY BACK in 1906 when this paper wasn't much larger than a good sized poster our New Year's greeting from the entire staff (one man) to our entire number of subscribers (27) was as earnest, since as full of hope as the greeting times today from our augmented staff our million readers. Certainly there is another newspaper in the country where relations between subscribers and publishers are more cordial and friendly. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER, broad scope, is essentially a home paper. It carries something of interest to every member of the family, and above all, it is clean, has infectionable features and is carefully edited. The management has always welcomed our collective criticisms and has endeavored to make each issue a little better than thedecessors. And while we perhaps have taken a long step forward in class journals, those of us who are at the helm that we are merely in our swaddling cloth MANY NEW and interesting features are introduced during the year 1925. Going serial stories by the best fiction writer articles on current topics by writers who are authority in their respective life foreign correspondents will give us by lee and cable the vital happenings of the world and especially will feature the moments of the darker races. Politics, religion, sports, dramatics and other topics will, as heretofore, have their place in the enlarged Chicago Defender. THE OUTLOOK for 1925 is most promising. Despite the slump that usually follows the wake of a national election, big industries—and they are the weather vanilla business—are planning to run full for which means work for the now unemployed. The old year has seen our group take a far bride forward, educationally, socially economically. Thousands have gone in business, some on a very large scale, we most gratifying results. We are developing a richal solidarity that augurs well, and the sake of dependency no longer impedes our progress. THAT WE WISH every member of the great big family—fifteen millions of us every good thing the New Year affords you without saying. We want every reader that they are a part of this paper for as only through their loyalty and trusted support that their paper—the Chicago Defender—became the "World's Great Weekly." WAY BACK in 1906 when this paper wasn't much larger than a good sized porus plaster our New Year's greeting from the entire staff (one man) to our entire number of subscribers (27) was as earnest, sincere and as full of hope as the greeting that comes today from our augmented staff to our million readers. Certainly there is no other newspaper in the country where the relations between subscribers and publishers are more cordial and friendly. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER, broad in scope, is essentially a home paper. It carries something of interest to every member of the family, and above all, it is clean, has no objectionable features and is carefully edited. The management has always welcomed constructive criticism and has endeavored to make each issue a little better than its predecessors. And while we perhaps have taken a long step forward in class journalism, those of us who are at the helm feel that we are merely in our swaddling clothes. MANY NEW and interesting features will be introduced during the year 1925. Gripping serial stories by the best fiction writers, feature articles on current topics by writers who are authority in their respective lines. Foreign correspondents will give us by letter and cable the vital happenings of the day, and especially will we feature the movements of the darker races. Politics, religion, society, sports, dramatics and other live topics will, as heretofore, have their place in the enlarged Chicago Defender. THE OUTLOOK for 1925 is most promising. Despite the slump that usually follows in the wake of a national election, big industries—and they are the weather vane of business—are planning to run full force, which means work for the now unemployed. The old year has seen our group take a long stride forward, educationally, socially and economically. Thousands have gone into business, some on a very large scale, with the most gratifying results. We are developing a racial solidarity that augurs well for us and the yoke of dependency no longer impedes our progress. THAT WE WISH every member of our great big family—fifteen millions of us—every good thing the New Year affords goes without saying. We want every reader to feel that they are a part of this paper for it was only through their loyalty and unstinted support that their paper—The Chicago Defender—became the "World's Greatest Weekly." THE COLOR LINE IN PRISON THE CRIME SITUATION in Chicago has been used to such an extent that the full facilities sufficient to meet the requirements of the c.o.s. This has been true during the past 10 years. The matter of the construction of a new now being considered, the location of which has definitely settled upon. The necessity of the new building, the location of the WHENEVER and whatever the new building aimed, we hope the facilities will be such as will with the alleged necessity for racial segregation among prisoners. It is a travesty upon justice to some extent an encouragement to crim THE CRIME SITUATION in Chicago has developed to such an extent that the jail facilities are not sufficient to meet the requirements of the occasion. This has been true during the past 10 or 15 years. The matter of the construction of a new jail is now being considered, the location of which has not been definitely settled upon. The necessity for such a facility will be increased when the new building is located, we hope the facilities will be such as will do away with the alleged necessity for racial segregation among prisoners. It is a travesty upon justice, and to some extent, an encouragement to crime to allow prisoners to choose their own associates while serving jail sentences or waiting to be tried. The inadequacy of the present jail facilities is given by the present authorities as the reason for this disgrateful crime. THERE ARE certain kinds of discrimination and segregation which should be countenanced and encouraged. For instance, first offenders should not be thrown in with hardened criminals. Those accused of midemeanors or minor offenses should be separated from those accused of felonies. Likewise, those who may be temporarily incarcerated on mere suspicion should not be brought in contact with other prisoners, because they are based merely on racial characteristics, as is now being practiced, should not be countenanced or tolerated. THE FLIMSY EXCUSE that if white and Colored are thrown together friction will cause and fight take place is a sad reflection upon the efficiency of those in authority. A criminal is a criminal and is no respecter of persons. He does not draw the color line when committing a crime and should not be allowed to draw it when being punished for a crime. If the accused will burglarize the house of a white citizen, he should not be allowed when in prison to select as his prison companions only members of his own line—and the same applies to whites. TO PUNISH a different course will have a teaching to respectability and give a sort of dignity to prison life, which is the very reverse of what that sort of life is intended to accomplish. All prisoners, according to the degree of their offense, should be treated alike and placed upon the same footing. If the cells complained of are not remitted in any way, the judge should see that men will never be elected who will discontinue this disgraceful, indefensible and inexcessable racial discrimination among prisoners. THE CROSS WORD PUZZLE at least starts some people to thinking, something they, perhaps, have not done in a long time. A MANUFACTURER who gets a salary of $150-900 a year, says: "I always enjoy hard work." Lead us to that kind—do we. THE MOST INFLUENTIAL LADY we know is the ops on the silver dollar. # BUSINESS POINTERS "THE STORY TELLER" THE "story teller"—she's a fellow we have with us always. In the office, shop, fullman smoker, bake room, yes, even in church and at funeral. He is ever with us. Now, nearly everyone really enjoys a good story. No kick about that. Fact is a good laugh is good for us. But the trouble is the "crumble" story teller chooses some very important time to "spin his yarns". Who ought to be doing something else for which he is being paid he may be a clever fellow but not a good fellow in the attire sense of the word. The unfortunate part of this man's efforts is out of place entertainment is that not only does he waste his own time, but also the time of his audience. And time is the most precious jewel we possess. In every business there is always a certain amount of time loss which is really unavoidable. No bones about that. It's the avoidable losses we should try to cure. THIS "story teller"—she's a fellow we have with us always. In the office, shop, Pullman smoker, police room; yes, even in church and at funeral. He is over with us. Now, nearly everyone really enjoys a good story. No kick about that. Fact is—a good laugh is good for us. But the trouble is the obvious story teller enjoys some very funny things in his name. When a man "stuff yarns" who ought to be doing something else for which he is being paid he may be a clever but not a good fellow in the attire sense of the word. The unfortunate part of this man's efforts at out of place entertainment is that not only does he waste his own time, but also the time of his audience.

A WORD TO NORTHERN DEMOCRATS THE NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC PARTY has nominated its members—north of the Mason-Dixon River—as the braintest and fairest men our country has produced. Mr. Hawis, their defeated candidate, one of that number. Various reasons have advanced why such an able and personally unobtrusive man lost. The true reason has never been given, the solid South. Northern Democrat right to know that the South is aABILITY instead of an asset and, notwithstanding the Democratic party's promise Democrat success, not on account of its solidarity, but by a gracious and lawless practice by which this solidity was brought about and maintained. ONE OF THE LOGICAL RESULTS of national democratic success is that it puts the South in control of the national government, even though a northern Democrat may be the candidate. In his succession, fort to defeat the federal elections bill in 1875, James G. Blaine gave, among other reasons, the Republican party and everything else in the nation, a solid South. Support of the Democratic party, for the reason that would prevent the obliteration of sectional identity and would have a tendency to produce a so populistic North against a solid Democratic South. WHILE THIS seemed a marrow and partisan issue subsequent events have, in a large measure, veered it. Thousands of New York voters support Governor Al Smith for re-election and voted against John W. Davis for president. Some Democrats preside over the number of votes and he been the president candidate. This is not true, for the reason that votes for the Democratic president, whoever he may be, is a vote to put the solid South in control of the national government. Thousands of northern Democrats will never countenance this. GOOD, BROAD-MINDED CITIZENES will not afford to have the government administer men who are the official products of unconventional and criminal methods. In the case of the wealthier, the moral worth and the respectability of american citizenship. The North cannot hour four of having the South, which stands for nothings the taxes that they must pay. The only hope for northern Democrats is to pull away from the combination of the southern wing of their party. Doing one of two things would happen. Either a south would cease to dominate or else cease to democrats. In either case, Democrat success usually would be enhanced. THE NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC PARTY has among its members—north of the Mason-Dixon line—some of the bravest and fairest men our country has produced. Mr. Davis, their defeated candidate, is one of that number. Various reasons have been advanced why such an able and personally unobjective man lost. The true reason has never been given, namely, the South. Northern Democrat is not the most assertive, but understanding its solidarity, it has a tendency to prevent rather than promote Democratic success, not on account of its solidarity, but by the disgraceful and lawless practices by which this solidarity was brought about and maintained. ONE OF THE LOGICAL RESULTS of national Democratic success is that it puts the South in control of the national government, even though a northern Democrat may be the candidate. In his successful effort to defend the federal elections bill in 1575, the late James G. Blaine gave, among other reasons, that the Republican party had everything to gain and nothing to lose by the existence of the Democratic party. For the reason that this would prevent the obliteration of sectional antimony and would have a tendency to produce a solid Republican North against a solid Democratic South. WHILE THIS seemed a narrow and partisan view, yet subsequent events have, in a large measure, verified it. Thousands of New York voters supported Governor Al Smith for re-election and voted against John W. Davis for president. Some Democrats preserve the same number of votes had he been the presidential candidate. This is not true, for the reason that a vote for the Democratic president, whoever he may be, is a vote to put the solid South in control of the national government. Thousands of northern Democrats will never countenance this. GOOD, BROAD-MINDED CITIZENS feel that they cannot afford to have the government administered by men who are the officiate products of unconstitutional government. We know that the North represents the wealth, the intelligence, the moral worth and the respectability of American citizenship. The North cannot bear the idea of having the South, which stands for nothing, levy the taxes that they must pay. The only hope for northern Democrats is to pull away from the domination of the southern wing of their party. By 2014, the South would escape to dominate or else cease to be Democrats. In either case, Democratic success nationally would be enhanced. WISE MEN OF THE EAST THE APPOINTMENT by the governor of Massachusetts of William M. Butler to succeed the lamentary Cabot Lodge as United States senator is so urgent. Prior to the recent presidential campaign, Mr. Butler had not acquired a national reputation, it is management of the campaign for the nomination and election of President Coolidge demonstrate the fact that he is the most successful party leader since the days of Mark Hanna. AS A UNITED STATES SENATOR, therefore, it state will maintain the prestige, power and influence that it has acquired through such aable and brilliant senators as Daniel Webster, Charles Sumner, George W. Bush, and John Kennedy, the most successful party leader as an author, but as a worker and influential legislator it is safe to assume that he will not have superior in the august body of which he is now a NO STATE in the Union has been more potent in shaping the policies and molding the sentiment in the country than the state of Massachusetts. Chief senator was chairman of the senate committee, and Mr. Butler was a flower orerer, a surreptitious debater and an annexation of Santa Domingo. While a large majority of Republican senators were favorable to ratification, Summer was bitterly opposed and sued in preventing it from becoming a law. I look the position that while the United States show the South American republics in the maintenance of their sovereignty and independence, could not seek to mimex them to this country. LIKE NONE of our senators was chairman of the senate committee, nor was embodying the League of Nations, negatively through President Wilson, was submitted to the senate. In his capacity as chairman, Mr. Lodl was instrumental in bringing about his rejection. The fight between Lodge and Wilson was the principle issue in the presidential campaign in 1920. Lodl was victorious. This demonstrates the potent power and influence whiled by the great state of Massachusetts in every important crisis in which he was involved. THE NEW SENATOR, William Butler, is a more well equipped along national lines that he will urge to the front and have his name inscribed along Webster, Summer and Lodge. Since he is as comparatively a young man it may be possible to higher honors to be in store for him, not exceed the presidency of the United States. THE APPOINTMENT by the governor of Massachusetts of William M. Butler to succeed the lamented Henry Cabot Lodge as United States senator is significant. Prior to the recent presidential campaign Mr. Butler had not acquired a national reputation, but his management of the campaign for the renomination and election of President Coolidge demonstrated the fact that he is the most successful party leader since the days of Mark Hanna. AS A UNITED STATES SENATOR, therefore, his state will maintain the prestige, power and influence which it has acquired through such able and brilliant senators as Daniel Webster, Charles Sumner, George F. Hear and Henry Cabot Lodge. He may not be the peer of Lodge as a flower worker and influential legislator it is safe to assume that he will not have a superior in the august body of which he is now a member. NO STATE in the Union has been more potential in shaping the policies and molding the sentiment of the country than the state of Massachusetts. Charles Summer was chairman of the senate committee on foreign relations when Grant negotiated a treaty for the annexation of Santa Domingo. While Summer was not a strong supporter of his ratification, Summer was bitterly opposed and succeeded in preventing it from becoming a law. He took the position that while the United States should protect the South American republics in the maintenance of their sovereignty and independence, it should not seek to annex them to this country. IN LIKE MANNER Lodge was chairman of the senate committee on the treaty, embodying the League of Nations negotiated largely through President Wilson, was submitted to the senate. In his capacity as chairman, Mr. Lodge was instrumental in bringing about his rejection. The fight between Lodge and Wilson was the principle issue in the presidential campaign in 1920. Lodge was victorious. This demonstrates the potential power and influence wielded by the great state of Massachusetts in the anticrime crisis in which the country has been confronted. THE NEW SENATOR, William Butler, is a man so well equipped along national lines that he will soon force to the front and have his name inserted alongside of Webster, Summer and Lodge. Since he is still a member of the Senate, it is possible for still higher honors to be in store for him, not exceptering the presidency of the United States. FEDERAL APPOINTMENTS ALTHOUGH the Republican party won the nominal election by an insecure majority, it must be forgotten that our group played a large party contributing to the result. As a matter of policy, to say nothing of equity and justice, appropriate official recognition is usually accorded to a different material element that contributed to party access. IN THE UNWISE EFFORT to gain support among southern Democrats, some weak-kneed northern Republicans have endorsed to have their party eliminate against the members of our group and make our racial identity a ground of disqualification for official recognition, regardless of ability to participate in the Democratic party. The immense majority of the Republican party is the fact that those who are now in control are not disposed to maintenance a policy of that sort. HENCE, we have a right to expect, at the hour of the successful party that official recognition which we are entitled on the same basis as the ALTHOUGH the Republican party won the national election by an immense majority, it must not be forgotten that our group played a large part in contributing to the result. As a matter of party policy, to say nothing of equity and justice, appropriate official recognition is usually accorded to the different material elements that contributed to party success. IN THE UNWISE EFFORT to gain support among southern Democrats, some weakened northern Republicans have endorsed to have their party discriminate against the members of our group and hence make our racial identity a ground of disqualification for official recognition, regardless of ability, efficiency and experience. The immense majority given the Republican party was due to the fact that those who are now in control are not disposed to counterance a policy of that sort. HENCE, we have a right to expect at the hands of the successful party that official recognition to which we are entitled on the same basis as that recognized by the party, is compounded. While we do not ask or expect special favors on account of racial identity, we do insist and have a right to demand that our racial identity should not be made a ground of discrimination. THE ACTS and utterances of President Coolidge justify the belief that we will not be disappointed along these lines. There are many desirable positions, and the belief that that can be and would be credibly filled by members of group if they should be called into the public service. In this connection a grave responsibility rests upon the shoulders of our senators and representatives in congress, for the reason that such appointments are not congressional recommendation. We look forward to satisfactory representation during the coming four years.

A TOAST TO COLORED GIRLS O ye poet who sings Of the pale-faced things Whose beauty may fade in a night I sing of the charms Of dimmed brown arms, And eyes that reflect the sun's light. And a form of which Venus might host, With souls that ablure, And hearts that are pure. Raise your glass, boys, let's drink a toast! What do you think of Desy Avery's idea of a Columba Fraternity? Let us hear from you on this subject. AT THE CATHEDRAL Sweet—things Merry, merry thinking. Gently falling happy laughter On the midnight air. Wild delight drowses this vague stillness— Till darkness without allow. You bid the strings of hope overflow And deluge me with joy. —ADAMS ROSS. We have another idea to offer—yes, we thought it up all by ourselves and here it is. Would you, heroic followers of the Columba, like to see a reprint day set aside for L. & S.? We think it would be a pleasant stint to give you a glance at our efforts in their early stages and on until through to the present phase, day, 10 could be first reprint day, at which time we will be in a year left. The entire line could be devoted to quips and puns that have already appeared in the Columba. Get busy and send in your options on the subject and, incidentally, name your Columba favorite, if you have one, and, if you don't have one, then nominate yourself. FAITH Ah, beloved, I am waiting, Waiting for your singing mood. Yours shall touch the many fingers, Pianes of snow and ebony-lined. Garlic cloves will bound up laughing, Clapping to your heart unknown to you. Yours will be a caroling love, you cannot err. I have heard the songs still struggle; Hike to your throat and swown it. It is thus that I beseech thee. List to the croon of chords, imbued With the life for the lifting of souls, Strains that would moisten the eyes of a drub. It shall be in raindrops from willows into water. HELEN BOWIE Cleveland, Ohio. Carved from milk-white marble; let the garden be its resting- place. Thus do I drough you dear— The drops fall from my finger-tips. The fragrant waters are flowers dissolved. By turbanned men, in earthen bowls, and ships. Hastened fast that you might re- ceive them all. These do I give to you— Wee bronze cheets, fashioned by craftsmen's hands. In which you may place the zems I maured above; This maunt old Budha I brought from foreign lands. Before it you can burn the incense of love.

Cleveland, Ohio. It Une Joyeuse Nouvelle. A Vous. —DEWEY IL. OtherPapersSay Commenting upon the marriage of that young son of an aristocratic, ultra-rich New York family to a young woman, who it is said, has blood directed with that of Ethiopian blood, the Cyclan star said: "The other day Arthur Brisbane, in one of his editorial spans, lauded a member of one of New York's old families for murrying a girl with Negro blood in her veins. Arthur seemed to think the partly Colored lady was something superior and that the white man had done something particularly praiseworthy. A few days later dispatches from New York announced that the white man is seeking a divorce because the girl had kept from him the fact that she had Negro blood. We wonder if Brisbane will have any more to say on the subject. The truth is that it is unworse for the members of the three great races—Caucasian, Mongolian Negro—in intermarry. It is not a question of morality or sentiment, but a cold fact, and proven in all parts of the world." The observations of those last two sentences are everlasting truth. When the superior intermixes with the inferior, the superior is always pulled down from its superiority in the long run. There may appear here and there the instance in which this is seemingly not the result, but such are intrages. Time will tell. We recall from our own actual knowledge the case of a man whose family name is nation-known. If not internationally so, who married a girl with Negro blood. She was a beautiful thing. They seemed to live happily. Several children were born. Apparently they were all that could be desired. Then there came another. This one was black and kinky-shared. In appearance a full blooded Negro. It lives today, or did less than a year ago, with a Negro family in a neighborhood state, simply provided with money, but not one what different in ambition and outlook from the hundreds of Negroes about it. What has come to that family out of this need not be told. It is almost unbelievable, undesirable, or identically what was to have been expected, as you choose to look at it. This is one of the most important questions for our consideration. It will be a sad day for our civilization not only, but for humanity as well, when we come in for race amalgamation. And we are drifting toward that—not hending toward it, but drifting. It is a trite saying that nothing is quite so dangerous as drifting. That is especially true if the drifting is toward mixed blood. These cool days have a tendency to make some impudent people stop and blink of the reckless way they squandered their hard earned dollars last summer. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1924 TALKS ON PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES, HYGIENIIC AND SANITATION KNOW YOUR HEART The heart has a power of contraction and relaxation. It contracts to force the blood through the arteries which carries food or nourishment to the tissues of the body, thus keeping the body in a healthy, energetic state. When the heart relaxes it opens to receive the blood from the veins to be carried to the lungs for purification and then returned to the tissues for nourishment again. In other words, the heart acts largely as a pumping function. Thus the heart runs two systems of circulation. The heart is a wonderful mechanical structure; it has the properties of rhythmic pulsation, self-adjustments. It has the power of regulating rate, strength or heat according to demands made on it by each individual. The heart has its own function; thus enabling the body to adjust or accommodate itself to external changes and conditions. No other machine or pump has this delicacy, accuracy or self regulation and perpetual motion. There are some mysteries of the heart that are not definitely understood in science — the power of heat—the responding spontaneously to impulse with a definite rhythm. The nature of the chemistry of the heart with the alternating contraction and of relaxation or what is called by doctors, systolic and diastolic action of the heart. The heart is a wonderful machine — from 65 to 80 per minute, night and day, in season and out of season, from birth to 100 years or more. Don't you think we should know more of the heart? Mrs. E. N. C. of Pennsylvania wants to know about her operation. Reply: The operation to which you refer when you were 19 years of age may have removed some organs for bearing a child.

JACKSON COLLEGE SPORTSMANSHIP WE have always been a firm believer in the spirit of college sports which makes them valuable for the bench warmers as well as for the participants themselves. Some of us in the hand workday world can learn something from the spirit of college sports, and we are grateful of our college playing fields. Noah Thompson of Los Angeles sends us a comment from the pen of Ed Mortiery of the Los Angeles Record in which he calls attention to the fact that the University of Southern California furnished a band to cheer the visitation and that his Spencer university and that his own Spencer university held the field between halves to play the Syracuse songs had one of our number in it, and that another representative was playing on the California football team. Mr. Mortiery says: "Memoray and sportsmanship are very valuable among the young students in the education of what the young believes this country stands for." We narcise it is more than that—an indication of what some of the some youngsters might learn from them. The Syracuse boys more than likely understood the spirit of the occasion, for they have had students from our high school in college in the att that university as far back as we can remember. At one time one of the trainers was a Colored man and a good man in his line. The Los Angeles writer does well to point out these facts to his readers, for we need to be reminded that the spirit in the university is not altogether dead in the university, but we realize that, regardless of our racial identity, the more we will be willing to work for its growth and perpetuation. STATISTICIANS tell us that the lives of half our population are insured for a total of $64,000,000,000. This represents a sum greater than the capital invested in all our factories and for greater than the value of all our railroads. The fluid capital has made possible the great development of our country and the stabilization of the farmer. It is therefore interesting to see the marked growth of insurance companies among our own group, for it means that not only will a great amount of suffering be alleviated by the reaper stalks, but that we are storing up assets amounts of capital for investment in industries from which we have been shut out on account of our weak economic position as well as on account of our face. However, as these finance companies grow we at the same time and business executives who shall have the financial ability and the integrity to honestly and efficiently invest and administer these funds, which are trust funds in the most salient sense of that word. Our business is marked by a reckless disdain for competitive and efficient methods and a tendency to lot anything so that led to profits at once or a front which indicateth prosperity. Sound business travels for a show route and worthwhile ventures. The big minds profits is for the speculator, but not for widows and orphans. No Cases Are Diagnosed and No Prescriptions Given in Three Weekly articles IT IS said that the heart is the seat of the emotions. The heart determines the amount of courage and bravery in an individual. The heart will also determine whether or not the individual has a yellow streak. In facing danger the conduct of the individual depends very upon the condition of the heart. From the heart comes the issues of life. The heart is an independent organ that works independent. individual. The heart will also determine whether or not the individual has a yellow streak. In fact shatter the heart of the individual depends very largely upon the condition of the heart. From the many issues of life. The heart is an independent organ that works independently of your will or direction. Dr. Williams Situation of Heart The heart is situated in the mid portion of chest, or of kyphosis. The heart is made up of muscle, in fact, it is a hollow, muscular pump and is the center of the circulatory system. It is the center which sends out blood of a bright red color known as arterial blood. This blood carries as much oxygen as the blood receives. The heart has a receiving chamber, which receives the blood after it has carried food (oxygen) to the tissues; the blood returning from the tissues is dark in color, as it is loaded with poisonous, gaseous substances known as carbon dioxide. The blood is carried to the heart from where it is conveyed by the arteries to the lungs to be again loaded with oxygen, and is pumped by the way of the arteries to the tissues of the body. Hence, we speak of the right heart and the left heart. We speak of a lesser out of a greater heart, and we speak of monotonic circulation, originating from the right side of the heart and a systematic or greater circulation carried on by the left side of the heart. The heart has valves and when these valves are intact or in good normal condition, it is permitted to return in the direction from which it is started. That is, when you hear the doctor say that you have regurgitation or leaky heart, it means that the blood is returning in the wrong direction and there is some damage or impaired functioning of the heart, or not doing normally, ultimately the heart is about the size of the first of the individual possessing the heart. CHRISTMAS IT seems good to see the spirit of Christmas grow and spread round about us once more. While there may be for some people a preference for other holidays, there is little question but what the majority of us like to see Christmas come around despite its assaults upon our pocketbooks. We suspect that one of the reasons for this is the fact that this holiday at least helps some of us to put self in the background for a time that blends back of the needs and A. L.
