WIFE SURPRISES DOCTOR AND LOVE RIVAL BISHOPS BARRED FROM HOTEL USE CLASSIFIED ADS FOR QUICK RESULTS VOL. XXII. NO. 37 BISHO REFUSED TO BE VICTIMS OF SEGREGATION Methodists Stand Pat With Demands Washington, D. C., Jan. 14. — (Special.) Three bishops of the Methodist Episcopal church refused to attend the annual closing banquet of the Citizens' Committee of One Thousand for Law Enforcement and Observance last Thursday night when they learned they would be "Jim Crowed." Rather than submit to the gross humiliation and being shunted off to a segregated table, they walked out of the church's "dismissal methods." The disentiries who made themselves conspicuous by their absence were: Bishops George Clement of Louisville, K. W. J. W. Jones of C. C., and S. D. W. Jones of this city. Race Issue Rises The race is arose in this conference, according to Bishop Jones of the A. M. F. church, when Carlion R. Williams, the secretary of the committee, said by many to be bitterly opposed to the intermingling of races, have out information that the local committee and the Willard hotel, where the committee held, disapproved a mixed gathering. His statement, however, hit the rocks when Frank F. Hight, managing director of the hotel, issued a statement about the situation at all and had not been approached relative to the matter either by Sherwood or other members of the committee. Hight's statement, but did say he believed it would be better if their were no "colored" at the dinner. He substituted Hight's statement that he had not received information as to the management would refuse admittance. Asked to Stay Away Bishop Clement, who is vice chairman of the Committee One Thousand, and took part in its organization here, said he had been asked to attend the banquet and had been urged to make a reservation. He obtained two tickets, one for himself and one for he had been asked to attend the banquet and had been urged to make a reservation. He obtained two tickets, one for himself and one for he had been asked to attend the banquet and had been urged to make a reservation. He had been requested to stay away. He said he had been asked to stay away. He said that he and the other two bishops remain away. W. T. Gallier (white) of this city was asked to attend the arrangements, said that some apprehension had been felt over the attitude of the hotel in serving members of our life. He did not want to take any chances on trouble. Gallier said, "but we did not withdraw their invitations. Sherwood told them of the trouble he felt that it might cause trouble." Bishop Makes Statement Bishop Jones in a statement said, "We have little confidence in the sincerity of the men in the mission that permit color to interfere with its function." Bishop Walls expressed the question that remained in advance of the arrival of our delegates that their presence would not be desired, instead of causing them embarrassment. That Sherwood had called at his home on three occasions and from the first had said that, "there was opposition to the banquet, but the banquet, but had not delivered a final decision until the last few minutes when he sold Bishop Clement and Joseph subjected to their presence at the dinner." Bishop Clement, who lives in Louisville and is chairman of the inter-religious community, told us from our lure, including 200,000 voters who should be lined up for probation. He emphasizes the prohibition cause by any statement against the committee's action. Hubby's Porter, So She New York. Jan. 14—Mrs. J. Simms.

HOPS WE MUST CEASE SEGREGATING OURSELVES By ROBERT S. ABBOTT There is a growing tendency on the parts of men and women of our race toward self-regregation. This tendency manifests itself in school and college activities and social functions in the North. It springs from that self-concious attitude, based upon an inferiority complex, which makes certain of us feel that we are more comfortable when we are "carrying on" in separate groups. A conspicuous example of this trend was shown us in a dance given by a fraternity group in one of the halls of the University of Chicago last Friday night. At this university it can be truthfully said that there is no segregation. The school more nearly approaches a real democratic institution than any of the greater universities in the country. Out on the campus of the University of Chicago a person is accepted for what he is and is given the opportunity of proving himself worthy of the acceptance. Out there we have represented the school in almost every activity along with other races who attend. We are an athletic squad; we play in the gymnasium; we take part in team sports; we take part in the international debate with teams representing Cambridge and Oxford; we are on the faculty; we are members of select councils, exclusive clubs and, finally, we have an international organization functioning on the campus. Obviously, we have every reason against our taking a Jim Crow social affair out there. There can be no noeuge argument against the intermingling of races socially at the University of Chicago or, for that matter, at any other university. Schools are for experimentation and broadening purposes. It is at such an institution as the University of Chicago that we can disprove the old, hackneyed argument that we do not want the contacts that can be established through association with white chasms. We not only want them, but need them. Experience has taught us that our lives are bound insensitive to the differences of white men and women around us. We wingle with them in the business world, however much we are opposed to it. Why, then, cannot we make these contacts that will insure a more amicable relationship when school days are over? Dances given at the University of Chicago should, in the very nature of things, be all-inclusive. We should not mention the situation. We white organizations have not taken that step it can be said that they thought we preferred our dance. Our dance proved it to their satisfaction. White students standing in the corridor watching the dance gave them interest. They have involved themselves—even to scoff—they would have gone home some time for having attended. They would have been invited to the University of Chicago the next day. We seem wooftely lacking in foresight. We follow blindly the beaten foot of others, and while we complain of our lust we have no the moral courage to seek new routes. We cannot argue that white fraternities do not invite us to their affairs. The only way we can do it is by initiating this courtesy? We who have lived in the restricted South all our lives—who are suffering from acute discomfort when in the world we expect always to be crushing, creeping things and still hope to take our place in the world's progress? Hasn't it occurred to us that the only way we can be safe is to meet the person who causes it again and again as many conditions as will offer themselves? S BA Dyna Jury Frees Pastor Who Killed Mate After fighting four days in the criminal courtroom of Judge William V. Brothers to escape the death penalty demanded by Assistant State's Attorneys Holman and Hoffman for the slaying of his wife, Rev. Robert Pratcher, 2414 Maypole Ave.. was acquitted by a jury Friday night when it returned a not guilty verdict at 9:30 o'clock. The minister, former pastor of the First Baptist church in Kansas, Attorney General John C. Counsel representing Rev. Pratcher emphasized the fact that Samuel W. star roomer in the minister's office was the victim of Mrs. Bessie Pratcher, whom the minister strabbed to death with an ice pick early on the morning of July 1, was responsible for the tragedy. Minister Testifies Rev. Fratten, testifying in his behalf, bared plots between his wife and Owens to kill him in order, it was said, to obtain his property in the house. He told of having found crushed glass in his food on one occasion, on another of having been assaulted in the bathroom of his wife. He told of On the morning of the fatal sambing of his wife, the minister said she struck him over the head with a blunt instrument as he bent over the glass. He said Owens shot him twice in the back State's Attorney Hoffman, in his argument to the jury, scouted the minister's self-defense plea, contending she sambed his wife in cold blood in that Owens shot him to protect her. State's Case Weakens From the testimony given by the state's witness the state's attorney, Mr. Patterson, asked his contention. But the same testimony analyzed by counsel for the minister, in his argument, destroyed the testimony and resulted in the not guilty verdict. Minister Patterson, on his death bed, said he have shaved a wound under the influence of Owens, bequeathing him all she possessed. Efforts will be made to fix him. Mr. Patterson and his counsel to break the will in the probate court. RETAINS COUNSEL IN WILBERFORCE PROBE Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 14—State Senator Roy C. Marshall has been retained by Superintendent Richard Normal and Industrial department to appear with his counsel when the school head comes before State Auditor Mr. Bundy will be questioned regarding alleged discrepancies in the state department's books.

Governor Had 3 Cousins in Lynching Mob New York, Jan. 14. Describing in detail the sickening horror of the Alken, S. C., lynching of the three Lowmans in October, one of whom had been acquitted and the remaining two granted a new trial, Walter F. White, special investigator on the scene, told the complete story of the murderous affair at the annual meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People at St. Mark's M. E. church, 13th St. and Edgecombe Ave., Sunday afternoon, Jan. 2. James Weldon John- combe Ave., Sunday afternoon son, secretary, presided at the meeting. Following Mr. White's story a stirring address was delivered by Louis Marshall, famous authority on constitutional law, who declared that a direct appeal to the conscience of the people is the only effective solution to our problem. Walter White served Thomas G. McLean, governor of South Carolina, who had three cousins in the lynching mob, for his "spineless" efforts in bringing the lynchers to justice. In 1913, he and Marshall authorizing the officials of the N. A. K. C. P. to address a letter to President Coolidge where a protest against Moore's membership in the federal trade commission, giving as their reason the retiring governor's postal limitations derelict and weak attitude toward the audience. The letter was to the audience. In League With Klan The high lights of Mr. White's story follow: Arriving at Allen he found the attorney Judge Samuel Lanham and apologized to the citizens of Allen for the tenacity of the attorneys who diret to defend the Lowmans. It was learned that Judeen Lanham was in prison. The non-Lanham had been acquitted and released, he was later rearrested and assaulted. Lodeen Lanham had held Bertha and Clarence Lowman and non-Lanham knew that the smuggling were going to take place. In the courtroom on the afternoon of Oct. 7, a client of one of the court lawyers was heard to remark that he would "away to help lyche three niggers." Sheriff Overpowered Sherif Holley Robinson declared that he was totally ignorant of the fact that any trouble winters was about to take place. He testified that he was thrown to the ground and overpowered when the lynchers came to the jail. Taylor, the jailer, testified that "it's fast happenin', that the jailer had the cell keys on his person. There is a vault in the Alken jail behind bars an inch and a half thick in diameter, and the door of the vault is open. There is a rull of the jail to keep all the cell keys in this vault, and when a key is needed, only the single key is taken out, used, and returned to the jail. The size of the jailers Taylor, who is a very efortimate manneered southern (7) gentleman, had ALL of the cell keys on his persons. That an obliging policeman and clerked the roads of traffic so that the lynchers might have the right of way. The three Lowman's were taken from their jail, Berlin screaming and pleading, and huddled in the murderer's auto. Thausands Gather A mile and a half away many those and sand people had gathered by prearrangement to witness and take part in the event. After the cars had started Damon torsh himself from his captors and leaped out of the automobile. A shot from a murderer's gun brought the victims to the scene and was secured and tailed around Damon's body, and the other end of the rope was tied to the rear axle of the car. Damon was dangled thus over the rough road to the scene of the killing. The victims were released where the mob waited and were told to run. As they did so their bodies were ridden by the police and were killed instantly, happily, but Bertha, with many wounds, pleaded puffily for them to square her life. Death was their answer. Walter White was severely strained when a member of the mob told him what he considered "a good joke." The murderer told him: laughingly, "— which pleaded just like a bull."

Jan. 14—With the passing of Frank L. Stanton, poet laureate of Georgia, at his home in this city last Friday, the nation mourns his death in American letters. Mr. Stanton, who died at 70 years of age, was a columnist on an Athena daily paper for 30 years. His most famous poem, "Mighty Lak a Rose," written in that quaint dialect for which he was known, was set but not been translated into almost every known language. Other poems for which Stanton was known throughout the world, "Wearin for Yer" and "Jell Feller," Frank Stanton attracted the attention of Joel Chandler Harris, the author of the novel *Rabbit*; stories back in the early '70s, when he was hardly more than a boy. Although his works found a place in the public eye, Stanton has written perplexes more than any other poet of his day; he died without having made a great amount of money. His "Mighty Rose" was bought off the road.

THOMAS from their communities over night, unwept, uninformed and unnumbered, animal cruelty and other ways to question the minds, whether the increase or decrease of the past year over some unspecified number of years, fearing of tolerance or a larger or smaller number of controversies or misunderstanding on the part of a member of the year. That is, if you have fewer men stealing nules, disputing a white man's word, attempting an attack on a woman one year than another year, all things being equal, you have perhaps fewer lynchings. That brings in women one year than another year, going on in the face community or in the white community. If our people are more submissive and rebellious above mentioned, will we escape the mob of midnight riders? A few days ago in Georgia a mob of men wanted one man to have committed a crime. After searching the house and failing to find the man wanted, one man was found to have committed a crime. We must have the nigger tonight. So they proceeded to kill a 17-year-old frightening a woman in 1926. Just how this can be controlled is difficult for us to appreciate. The latter are the failure to find the alleged criminal, the other from frightening a white woman. With these two new men, correspondingly new lynchings. When the cause for lynching transports from rape or criminal assault to rape or criminal assault of a white woman, or the failure to find the alleged, "there is confusion." Reckless Driver Chases Speed Cop Into Ditten Washington, Jan. 14.—Edward J. Evans, 20 years old, of Hall's Hill, Van, was arrested last.

Thousands of Women and Girls of Our Group Are Using St. Joseph's G.F.P. to Build Up Strength and Vitality "I was in a terribly run-down condition," says Mrs. Katie Brown, the well-known woman of our group, who makes her home at 1049 Melrose St., Memphis. Tenn. "I didn't have any appetite to speak of, and was so weak I couldn't do my housework without stopping to rest several times during the day. "Several friends are using St. Joseph's G. F. P. and it is helping them so much, I got a bottle and started using it." St.Josep used by women Just how far the increase or decrease in the lynchings of one calendar month against the same amount of a community, is the difficult nature of a community, is the difficult to ascertain. In other words, just how far one can go in believing or stating that a change in attitude of tolerance as a result of fewer lynchings in one year as compared to another year in the question, is difficult to ascertain. A writer to accept these annual comparisons in figures as conclusive evidence, as representing a change in attitude, is interesting to see some half dozen or more organizations, each claiming the credit for having influenced the lynchers to the extent that the "meekie parties" and other forms of mob violence have been discouraged. In the more personal manner during the years of these were women. It must be kept in mind that the names of a great many of our Rue, who "come to us" to be known, are never appear in public print. About a year ago at a certain institution, a agricultural department was shot down on the campus by a mob in broad daytime and the only in-person victim was a student. The community has been by word of mouth and that in a whisper, because southern newspapers generally condemn lynching and cricket's offence because the average local community fears the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynchship bill.

"I would be dark friends here my saluted mother and father would be restless in their sonic music, and German soil, for they, like me, always stood by the friendless."

I have a good appetite and what I eat seems to agree with me, because I am gaining in weight and strength every day. I sleep soundly, too, now and when I wake up I feel so rested I have plenty of strength to do my work, and still time and energy to go out with my friends and keep up with my church work."

VETS RUSH TO CASH IN ON CERTIFICATES Veterans are rushing to cash in on their adjusted compensation certificates, which would seem to indicate that all ex-servicemen are going to have a lot of money this year. But this is not the case. Part too much money is accumulated in certificates the nearest bank. The man who has a $1,000 certificate can be a loan of $87.38 on it. That will be about the average amount. The amount, whatever the amount may be, the transaction is forgotten by most men. This is the unfortunate phase of the situation, for the loan must be repaid, and the interest must be paid, collateral the interest must be paid, the borrowed money returned. Failure to do this means the loss of money. On the other land, the man who takes the other view moses that in 19 years a $1,000 certificate will have a loan value of $31. This sum should be written on a derivative truffle of $51 now available. Representative Edith Nourse Rogers, Republican, of Lowell, Mass., presides over the house which would amend the World war adjusted compensation act so as to authorize the director of the Veterans' bureau to lend to any veterinary loan basis of his adjusted service certificate. The loan would be made upon the promissory note of the veterinary secured by his adjusted certificate. It is provided in the bill that the sum loaned shall bear interest at the rate of 2 per cent per annum. Provision is made in the proposed loan to cover the loan and the procedure to be pursued if the loan is not repaid.

H. George, the dignified new nominee of Mrs. Lewis' national known burlesque. The occasion was to introduce a newatrical combination, who are now sojourning in Chicago with the "Great Temptation" show at the Apollo theater. Among the interesting announcements on the Old English, deep set stage, and the entire company of the entire company of the big Loop show; the playing of Sammy Stewart and his imminible orchestra; tuxedo required, and cover charge of $25.00; and the one who was there. Had you been there you might have said the same. You see, "Hill" George, fine chap, had been down in the "Boring Forbes" in New York for several months before he gave Chicago the benefit of his experience and observations. "Twas a slight, at all of it, fit for the Prince of Wales," were perfected, from Dr. Jim Lauson's monicle to Attorney "Lee Johnson's" Parisian vest. The ladies God bless them, furnished an insimulation of nature, mingled fecility with the beauty of the modiste's artistic achievements, and the beauty cultured in necklaces, brooches and rings, added to the luster, while corsage bouquets spread their fragrance on the compass four pults. Roy Sibley, star of the Tempation collection, master of ceremonies, was more—he was the "Life of the party" —and that's literal. Boy is more than a card, he a whole bookcase, and he a sourcefulness, kept the resolution of the program up to summer heat. Ladies and gentlemen, it was red hot. The decorations, the dancing, the music, the entire event made it an occasion long to be remembered. Bedside members of the Tempatment company, there was a Fellows, now in Chicago; the late "Miss Callee," including Ethel Waters, who alone of the stars was uninhibited, and the moment her acquaintance, Miss Pearl Wright, plays the piano from her soul, could not be located. Yet, indeed, it was the old "women's rump, and then were those present who felt like 'tanger Awhile.' The next time "Bill" must be an announcement you'll be able to write you, you were not there Monday night you'll always have a lingering regret. EXAM QUESTION IS PUZZLE TO EXPERTS The staff service examination given to protective firemen by the site has that many old men are keen off that many old men are unable writes that he failed. One applicant writes that he regard to the capacity of a fire crew to handle a large number of professions of mechanics and hydraulics at the University of Illinois, the foremost university in the country, as to the answer to such a problem. Prof. Kierger replied that the question implied that the capacity of the pump was precisely answered unless additional facts be given. The wording of the question implied that the capacity of the pump was hence the product of the discharge in gallons per minute and the pressure. Although the problem was technical the pressure at the inlet of the pump was much greater than the much of the 120 pounds discharge pressure is due to the action of the pump.

The comic section in colors and the rotograuvre page is certainly an advanced step in Negro jour- I am vitally interested in your program for the coming years. There is one area of this program that is more able to bring to a successful conclusion than any other single newspaper in America; that section is the one in which you design women to work in the public utilities of the city and state. Chicago is the strategic city for the construction of this umbilt. Detroit has been the most difficult to form and several conductors on its street care, but Detroit, unfortunately does not carry the momentum and practice of the city of Chicago. In fact, in so far as his industrial opportunities are concerned, and as long as a workman feels that the Negro must work in inferior and less skilled conditions than Negro his inferior in every other respect. One way, and perhaps the most effective way to press down on this contempt which Negro workman is for him to see Negro workmen in the public utilities employed on the same basis as A LITTLE EVERYT A LITTLE ABOUT EVERYTHING Odd Gleanings From the Week's News Measure Bullet's Speed Through experiments in the bureau of standards at Washington old theories of ballistics have been颠覆ed.

In a few months, I understand, the great traction interests of Chicago will take for a renewal of their franchise. The black electorate of Chicago will take a positive position to strike a blow for economic liberty. Personally I can conceive of no finer platform on which all of the Negro churches in Chicago will be able to stand on this platform demanding the right to work in the public utilities which are common city and a common country. If this could be won in Chicago it would mean that in every city or the United States within the last five years colored men and women would have a chance to work in these great public service corporations which are supported not insignificantly by the hard won dollars of thousands of black men and women.

PART 1 PAGE 4 3 MURDERERS DIE IN CHAIR AT SING SING All Victims Natives of West Indies Ossining, N. Y., Jan. 14—Three Race men met their death in the electric chair here last Friday, two of them hating each other bitterly to the very end. Their death was the penalty for killing William Vance, 83, an aged wachman in a hold-up suit, 575 Eighth Avenue, the players were Charles Goldson, 22, 277 W. 10th St., and Edgar Hume, 22, 277 W. 130th St., and George William Rush Ave., Brooklyn. They were executed in the order named. --- Attempts Suicide Williams' suicide attempt was frustrated when a watchman took from him four knotted towels tied into a satchel he had hidden beneath his clothes. Humes hated Williams because he gave information to the police that led to the arrest and conviction of the man at the "aqualer" as he passed his cell. "If I could get hold of that towel around your neck, buddy" he said. "I'd save the executioner a job on you." John J. McCaffrey, Catholic chaplain of the prison, accompanied Goldson and Williams to the death chair, but Humes insisted upon having a protestant chaplain, and was killed with him down the hard gray corridor and through the little white door into the death room with him. Benjamin Bradley, 28, of 40th St. in the same crime, displayed great interest in the manner in which his comrades met their doom. He had a keeper respond carefully to him how each man was through his body. Bradley was electrocuted Thursday, Jan. 13. "Cake Eater" Bandit Writes Herbert Koerber (white), the "take out" hound, had been friendly with Williams, who, before he died, wrote Koerber a letter, admonishing him to avoid evil companions and to keep out of trouble in the future. He was born from the death house to be given a new trial. State Executioner Robert Elliott, who on the same evening officiated at the execution of three men in the Massachusetts state prison, had been raised at Sing Sing in time to give the juice to the three Race prisoners. For each execution he received $150, bringing the day's total up to $900. MRS. FANNIE FAGAN NAMED BY WIFE WHO SEEKS DIVORGE MRS.

We must learn that our opportunity this question is insulting. We must learn to answer these questions by writing "American." We were born in this country and many of our people fought and died for our freedom on this soil. We are not alone in this struggle.

The coronet of Disfranchisement of Voters in South Under Observation By LOUIS R. LAUTIER Washington, D. C., Jan. 14—The senate judicially committee at its meeting last Monday took no action on the proposals to investigate either the alleged sale of federal securities or the Smith. It proposed consideration of three questions until Monday because of other business upon which it had not. At the meeting Monday the subcommittee, consisting of Senators George W. Clinton, Richard P. Ernst, Republican, of Kentucky, and William H. King, Democrat of Utah, will make a favorable report on both proposals. This subcommittee, however, at its meeting Jan. 6, decided to submit the question of whether the two proposed investigations should be admitted jointly to the full judicial committee. In the meantime senators are analyzing the qualifications for voters and the election returns of the southern states. They find that any discrimination in the laws of southern states affects the right of persons of color to vote in general elections. They think, however, that various subterfuges are resorted to to circumvent or violate voting in the southern states are alike for both races. They include property ownership, ability to read and write, payment of a poll tax, good moral character, ability to read or interpret the Constitution and registration. In the constitution, the qualifications are more liberal. It is in the application of these election laws that senators believe distranchisement is practiced. They are advised that registration officers arbitrarily refuse to permit persons of color to qualify to vote under the laws. The election returns show that in 1924 a total of 194,276 votes were cast for United States senator in Alabama, although that state has a total of 508,886 citizens 21 years of age and 145,500 votes elected Senator Tom Hennig. In Arkansas in 1924 only 125,553 votes were cast in the senatorial election. Senator Joseph T. Robinson, Democratic leader in the senate.

Improved Pluko MORE THAN A MILLION, PACKAGES USED AYEAR --- CITIZENS ASK POSITIONS ON POLICE FORCE --- Newark Voters Tire of Ban on Cops' Jobs Newark, N. J., Jan. 4.—A conference of citizens of Newark was called by the commission Ashby, commissioner of the department Urban league, on Jan. 4. in the league's office, 212 Bank St. to discuss methods of getting men of our force into the police department of Newark. Mr. Ashby pointed out that Newark is one of the very few large cities in the country which does not have a single patrolman of our Race. At the conference Mr. Ashby read a letter which he and recently re-received from the department that he was anxious to appoint some. But under existing conditions he could not do so, for the law provided that appointments can be made only from a civil service list. In the past only three of them would make them eligible. It was the decision of the conference that young men of good moral and physical character be sought out. They will then be prepared with a regular course of physical training and the mumu which will equilyn them for a civil service examination. It was thought also that the churches would doubtless be the best source to seek out the men of such character as would make good prospects. Ending the conference were Rev. J. B. Brown, Mt. Zion Baptist church; Rev. L. C. Hurille; Bethany Baptist church; Rev. Harry W. Cummings, St. James A. M. E. church; Rev. L. B. Ellerson, 13th Ave. Presbyterian church; Father Louis Harry, W. W. Fleming, Mt. Olivet Baptist church; Rev. W. A. Huthard, St. John's M. E. church; Rev. T. T. Trucker, Union Baptist church; Rev. T. T. Itedd, New Hope Baptist church. A further meeting is planned for Monday evening, and the men will be discussed with prospects. Any interested young man between 21 and 34 is invited to attend this conference.

C., Jan. 14—POLICE are still at work but without clues of any kind in their investigation of the shooting of Grant Ward, 80-year-old cook for the North Carolina college, who worked at 8 o'clock Thursday night, Jan. 8. Ward was about half a block from his home when a 32-collared bullet struck him in the chest, passed through his shoulder. Its distance leads officers to believe it was fired from a high-powered pistol or rifle. The cause was said to have been slightly obscured. The fact that Ward was not known to have had enemies leads police to believe it was a case of mistaken identity, or that it was a stray shot, not a bullet. He fell forward, called three times for his wife, who heard him and run to his assistance, then died. Calls Co-operation Real Test of Civilization Hampton, Va., Jan. 11.-Clark Howell Forman, assistant director of the Helps-Stokes fund, speaking before the dawn hall Sunday evening, stated that "cooperation is the test of civilization," and that the furthering of the principle of cooperation is the problem of all peoples of the South. "What I am trying to do in the South," continued Mr. Forman, "is to help individuals in individual development. But even after these obstacles are cleared away there will still be a great deal of work to be done to make the value unless the dark folk take advantage of it in the way of personal achievement." Mr. Forman elaborated that any people come from the respect for individual achievement within that group, pointing to such men as Booker T. Washington and Isabel Hayes to illustrate his statement.

Perry, attorney for Harry Simmons, announced Wednesday, Jan. 14, that if necessary he would carry the case to the United States supreme court to determine whether life imprisonment as a fourth offender under the Baumes law.

BILL ROBINSON IS A BIG HIT ON PROGRAM AT THE PALACE PART 1-PAGE 6 Bill Robinson, the pride of the Race and one of the best known performers in and in great benevolent character, played the Palace theater last week and was such a riot that he was held over the stage. The foot and sick performers in other person in the show business has been benevolent as Bill Robinson, his charismatic conductor, and is a great help to the performer. Following is an article written by a critic on a Los Angeles daily when Bill was seen in the theater. "Los Angeles, Calif." The proper study of munkin, an Alexander Pope sagely remarked some years back, is impt; but the proper study of an actor is "in other words, you will obtain your shewderd personal estimate of the player, whether he be artist or work, witnessed from the front of the house, but back of the footlight trench, where the stage crew moves a constrictor." The theater fakes and grows insignificant. "There, if you can induce conversation and exchange of opinion, you can close lines on character, for no one can pierce the tinsel and make believe with which the actor is prepared to speak, and no harvesting machine can separate the wheat from the chaff with greater speed or accuracy than this group of human beings." And it was in this remote corner of the theater world to which, happily, we have access and comfort, that we were directed to Bill Robinson, a Negro, who has spent 27 years in the theater, and the heights of vaudeville by the expertise of his shining and the fluency of his entertaining. What tales we heard of this Robinson. The heroic fairy reduces great artificial and villainous in comparison. We heard how he replaced a white man who had become and we were told that he came into convulsions of merriment, in order that the invalid might receive his money without cessation, and countries other tales of similar com "We heard him treated to lavish lack-stage and front-of-house entertainment as a prince of the city, whose willingness to aid others at the expense of time as well as money, had developed him into an unwitting demolitionist. A poll was taken of the most popular players in the varieties, the name of Bill Robinson would occupy a similar position to the mythical Abbe-Adobe. A went to the Orpheum yesterday prepared to interview this exceptional Negro and see just how much fancy had been permitted to the stage, to determine whether or not the stagehand had lost his cunning, and to inquire into the reasons why this Colored man had attained such birth. ```markdown ``` Bertha "Chippie" Hill croons "PRATTS CITY BLUES" OKeh Record No. 8420 MEET Bertha "Chinpie" Hill's newest record, folks — "Pratts City Blues" with a mean accompaniment by Richard M.

"The answer is not at all complex. It is quite simple. Robinson is a philosopher, although he might not call it that. There is nothing finer a Colored man may have on this earth than to have white folks really like him," he explained, shyly, and then as might happen, had of pride, "I mean you think your color is a drawback to success" we inquired. To which he replied, and quite wise, too, it would seem on reflection: "Art Many have the qualifications but lack the personality, some have the personality and are able to achieve the qualifications. Success will attach it to race, nationality, or regardless of race, color, nationality." Robinson's personal success he considers is due to persistent application. He works as hard, and as effectively, too, if there are 40 people in his office, he may shorten his act at the back of the management, but he will never minimize the effort, and the results are obvious in his pay-check in the office he holds in organized yardage. FINE BODXINGS ARE COMING TO GRAND Like the popular song of "Goodbye Blackbird" it's good by old 1924. Still, during its 12 months stay, so many people have come to the popular Grand theater up at 3110 S. State St. it has been a mighty successful year as far as his theater was concerned. And too, it might also be the reason that other Chicago amusement houses the Grand didn't have to even so much as take a gallery seat but always managed to remain in the very front row all during the old year of Every city has a theater of which it is justly proud. In Chicago it is the Grand. The class of attractions, theaters, museums, and pristine circuit of the T. O. B. A always managed to measure up in ounces and pounds. As manager Klein says, "Looking back to the old days, it was only been gone a few days. During the time it was with us, just 12 short months, what promises it made that is as far as the amusements were. It was a bookshop. A bookshop. This the old year more than fulfilled its promise to carry out. So if there was any complaint to be made then, old 1926 had to do it. This time it was a mighty good season at that." Only a few days have just slipped by since the birth of the new year of 1327 was unhered in. And there will several days yet remain. The Grand剧院, Still, an Manager Klein says, the beginning of the new year has started off mighty fine. The prospects for a greater season's theatrical offerings are excellent. And it will be a greater season, one that will give a good account of itself during the next 12 months of the new year of 1327. The Grand has long stood the test of being a major theater. Theaters. Still, there might be other theaters in Chicago of whose managers might say their houses were the best. But for amusement value the Grand comes first. And will the Grand always have always, given face value for what it charges at the box office.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER JULIUS BLEDSOE STARRING IN 'ABRAHAM'S BOSOM' --- It is a tragedy of the frustration of the Messianic impulse which Paul Green, a youthful instructor of the Messianic community, has written a tragedy so charged with primitive emotion and the terrible longing of the human spirit that the provocetown narration fury. The little stage in Macdugal St. trembled under the passion of Abraham McCrane as, stricken again and again, he proclaimed the destiny of the people, leading it out of the darkness of ignorance into the light.

I was so excited to see all that the different writers had said it was and some more, but I cannot see how they all failed to mention that great orchestra that dishes out the music for every part of the show. I must say and it will have to be heard for you to believe it, but this is one of the best orchestras that I have been to see in the minstrel show. One of those orchestras that are not to take the novelty from the singer, but play so soft that you can hear every word of every performance.

There is in his conduct of man and his environment, I venture to suggest, that Green has wrought. Despite his paths and strength, the play is often preachy, repetitious and faulty in construction. It stands in instant need of correction, but written it has more affinity with the library than the stage. The author is not yet a journeyman playwright: he might have done well to represent the experience of collaboration. The representation by almost entirely Negro was, I thought, excellent. Julius Bledsoe, late of "Deep River," gave powerful and mature performance of a Irishman in Rowan Henderson, who also appeared in "Deep River" brought polishness and classic restraint to the role of his wife, and you will find more realization in your life.

IN OLD KAYSEE Kansas City, Mo.-Jazz music, some whirling dancing and bright choreography, will be presented in which Dai James "Hello Little Girls" started the new year program. The various numbers have been well received and provide substantial entertainment. Titre are varied solos and duet numbers and several elaborate dance routines by the group. This impromptu show. This choreography shows some unique effects in bathing suits, and short skirts that are as close as any seen on the Lincoln stage, and more noticeable for their cleanliness. Altogether the show has the snap and dash that are characteristic of this sort of amusement. The management of this company deserves great credit, while the stage, cost of this sort of amusement, the talent received unstinted approval on the part of a large audience.

The federation of Labor is in the im- pact factor in the de- velopment of B Our group of musicians have a reputation benefited by their existence of this body. We work under the same name as the white musicians work, being Dave Payton paid the same绰绰绰 the same hours and in fact, enforcing all the rights and privileges enjoyed by them, as applicable to our group, advantage of organization. It has given us our own officers, and we have learned the power of organization and its desire of things that are Just and beautiful. Musicians Recognized In this country the Race musicians are recruited in body by the American Federation of Musicians, whose members are in some cities our group are members of the white locals and are eligible to join anywhere in the country. We are in many cities and birth in many places and act as a barrier to our group, but in New York city, Detroit, Mich.; Denver; Chicago; one local and both are members of our membership. Today we have several locals in the federation that are offered by and composed of musicians in the great world of music, in most cases it is of our own choosing to have our own locals, but I want the reader to mindless stand with us—we are the white local, but for social reasons we would rather have our own headquarters, the largest and most prosperous locals in the federation is in Chicago. It is local No. 208, with a membership of over seven hundred, and we have a national convention by President Weber, who said it was one of the finest in the federation. This is wonderful when you think of the size of the student student student picks out our own to command. Our Own Officers In the white local we have no chance to become officers, although we have the power to decide of the white vote would overwhelm any effort to elect a Race official, because of the majority vote by the voters, or by having our own locals, because we have our own officials who get the inner workings of the federation and the national convention with the rest of them. Our locals are chartered by the state and are given the same power of functioning as the white locals. In Chicago local No. 208 owns "its building, representing $15,000 in the building of 200. In Chicago, the president, in the short length of time he has held the office, is carrying the local to a still higher goal. All factions seem to be united and all seem to be local this year. We make $20, a greater local this year. Faulty Contractors Many contractors forget that the minimum scale is for the mediocre musician. The expert, well-experienced musician should be given a more liberal salary than the minimum. The musician should be encouraged the mediocre musician to whip into shape, and the qualified musician is satisfied.

"Had Eat" and "Going Back to the Country," which the Dixio Land Four will feature. Having completed his work, he and the Jackson School of Music and inter-taken special training under Prof. Reginald McCall and having some years of experience as a songwriter, he will explain what all music lovers like in regards to composing and arranging and publishing. Mr. Seymor is also a member of Las frat and former member of the band called the Lights and Shadows column of this paper. He is also a writer of jokes and sketches for numerous magazine and poems have been published by the sterdum News, New York News and Writers' Digest. He is also a character of a church choir and director of male quintet. He also received a permanent artist and will be made at various music stores. Mike Jackson, the composer of "It Is Not Me," is big on some hit singers, will probably take a hand over to the other side. Mr. Jackson is without a doubt one of the best entertainers in his age and in his music. His phone playing and singing act is always a feature and he should go big on the other side if he makes the trip. Would like to state that some of the newspapers overdo things sometimes. While the write-up in one of these papers of a prominent young girl Ms. Jackson is popular debilitate, did not mean anything to her. She was formerly of Boston and one of The Chicago Defenders' readers. It is getting good results from his "Black Bottom," a song hit and many while and rare acts are using this number with music publishers.

AMON'S PEN Detroit, Mich.—Business is jam-up here this week. Lots of performers in town, Chandler and St. Louis, and Chicago, where they play the Pythian theater.

W. previously trained himself in the vital and necessary success qualities in every job he has held. How infiltrate and dominate him, daily crown his present efforts. He simply lacks endurance power—persistence. He constantly lives in fear of losing the chance of a lifetime, and he has no desire to hold his habit of putting things off. He is a young man of clean personal habits and clean living, yet procrastination is the only thing. I'll venture to say, he has a great gift of admiration. There is hope for this chap. I believe, for several very bitter experiences and disappointments have rudely warned him to toil with his obsession. He has difficulty set about correcting his chief faults. Also Lincoln had ambition and wanted to do whatever he could but he had to hold his own as president of the United States. He prepared himself for whatever big chance might come, "I will study," he said, "perhaps my chance will come." His and surest method to follow at all times was very cogently expressed by the late Theodore Roosevelt, who said, "to the best you can with what you have, where you are." After all, getting the things we want and reaching the coveted position is not easy. We must faith in ourselves, our ability and our future. If we desire a higher place in life or a position more favorable, we must gain this very moment to prepare ourselves for its future coming. We must possess a firm faith in our God, forever vigilant, active and determined. We all love to dream, but few of us will save our thoughts, and we must process immutable law, will memorize themselves. Charley Turpin Included in one of my daily letters from Homer, my brother, was one of Charlie Turtur's friends, a reader that Charlie is running for alderman. It asks the Race people of St. Louis if they desire a Race alderman and asks them what they want. It asks the simple expedient of registering and voting for Charlie Turtur. Knowing the many disadvantages Race people it would seem that there is not a great service a Race alderman could render his people in St. Louis. It would seem that there is not a great service a Race alderman could elect. He is a born politician, he has served his people faithfully and creditably in other political enquiries, and in business man, he is one of the best known men of the city. If these facts are generally known, wherein lies his danger, he is one of the Race votes when one of their members is running for office.

HERE WE ARE AGAIN WITH THE SEASON'S LATEST OBSERVATIONS By SALEM TUTT WHITNEY On the Job Perhaps I have written this before, but even so, the widow of the advice is so timely that it will bear repudiation to the minister of one of the largest Prebaby organizations in Philadelphia, was addressing 2,000 men in the central branch of Y. M. C. A. Among the many interesting and intriguing things he said, the following impinged itself upon my memory. "The reason some of you men minister of one of the largest Presbyterian churches in the country, was addressing 2,000 men in the central branch of the R. M. C. Church in many interesting and instructive things he said, the follow-up self upon my memory: "The reason some of you men are without a church you quit your S. T. Whitney job before you had another. That is wrong. No matter how distantate you are, you never quit the job you have just done. You strive to give a better job, but don't quit the old one until you are sure you have the new one; then you will never be out of work." Always quit the old job in such a manner that the boss will be glad to hire you again or to recommend you for another job. Another reason for young men being out of jobs is that they quit the job as soon as they learn the routine of it, they relax their efforts, their enthusiasm cools. They quit trying to please you and that job they work for, their job they work for, their job they work for, but now they are rewarding the boss with as much late coming and early leaving as they believe they can get away with. While on the job, always endeavor to work more diligently, and do the task ask for help. Ask for assistance for yourself. Work for your boss in the same conscientious manner that you would like others to work for you. While you’re working, don’t be afraid to be with him. If conditions there are not as you like them, then get out. But don’t stay there and kick, and spread discontent among the other workers. Don't be afraid to quit a job to go in business for yourself. We can't all be bosses to conduct the business, and not for the employees. Don't be afraid to take a chance. When you start in business for yourself, burn that friend has assisted in the venture, don't, however, burn that bridge that carried you across. Eliminate all business that we don't let anything come between you and your business. Some who start in business fall because they try to run their business and hold on to the business, so busy keeping their safety net stretched to catch them when they fall that they haven't the time to attend to the details of their business. There are performers who have never measured up to their real abilities because they can't handle the vanuatu and road shows, two distinct branches of show business. They don't stay with their branch long enough to attain the popular necessary to admit them. Most of us are anxious to be bosses, but how few of us are really qualified. The boss should know a little bit more about the job, more efficiently than anyone else on the job. Before one is qualified to boss others, one must be able to boss oneself. A knowledge of human nature is also a requisite. A boss should encourage human beings, not as pieces of machinery. A boss should encourage initiative; should be willing to give an employee credit for a constructive idea and not seek to monopolize it. A boss should direct his direction and blame all failures on his workers. It is not beneath the dignity of a boss to be on friendly terms with his employees and interest in their personal affairs, and to seek to win their admiration, love and esteem. It is said that Causer know the name of every soldier in his army. Perhaps some of them digging in Causer's records and explode the foregoing as a butt, but until they start their blackmailing, we will hold to what we consider a factual record of men do lives after them and the good is oft interred with their bones. It is impossible to do good work and watch the clock at the same time. Ability, reliability, amiability and usefulness are essential to advancement. Enduring power is a prime requisite for making good on the job. It means failure will fail to develop the degree. Man's failure to develop the qualities of punctuality, reliability and efficiency simply because it is not their good fortune to be in the kind of job pride, business or profession that is required. A serious ailment a mistake could be made. منظور I know a young man who has been in and out of John and positions for secure work in the thing he wants most to do, work that would mean his best opportunity for self-expression, and secure work in the month on the job he slaved beautifully at his beloved tasks. He simply revealed in his good fortune, in some degree the details of his work, his old habits of tardiness, procrastination and failure to carry out his duties, and consequently he relaxed his efforts and began to plop. No one can deny that he is sincere and means well, but he is a victim of past bad habits of work. Let us suppose that he had THE GEORGIAS By TIM OWSLEY I feel Sir Oliver Lodge is right when he speaks of the terrible and irrational part fear plays in the hour of human bereavement. We find fear is not only a factor in death, but it plays its part in life. In the show life of Race artists, producers, managers and such like fear is a curse. You can see its destructive effects daily on originality, faith, success and character. Some may say I speak plainly. It is because I do not fear, and many others can help themselves as well because I do not fear the misunderstood and outwit fear by co-operating with the great natural forces backed by truth.

English last Friday evening and also had the pleasure of witnessing what played the Pekin theater twice a week during the winter. I was glad to see my old friend Kid Holmes and he asked me to remain and witness the show. The house was packed and jammed and a red orchestra is in the house. My old friend Albert Pryer is leading comedian and he keeps the house in an uproar the whole time the show is going, assisted by Arthur Williams. Emma Jordon is the blues singer and the best stopping character in Raleigh Holmes, beatrice Burlight. Sallie Scott and little Dorothy. The chorus is red hot and the girls really look nice in their costumes. Rosie Holmes stopped the show with her buck and wing dance, the way he handles his little troupe both on and off the stage.

Then she kissed those tears away, A kiss. "A kiss." She did. And there is something, scarle, I do want you to know." I knew she was sincere. My telephone was ringing. I started up it seemed.

DUDLEY What will the new year bring to the show business to improve conditions? That is the ting that is puzzling me and other showmen. Of course I hear lots of people preaching prosperity, but I am puzzled to know that I do not have a lot of course I do believe better shows will bring better business, but will the money he in circulation to buy amusements? I find that the amusement seekers are looking for bargains to have a better chance to have a better chance to show the managers must pay better salaries and the audience must pay better admissions. This is a tough proposition. What we really need in our business is to show the actors and the managers and the only way to do that is to have meetings together, and talk things over and get a better understanding in general, show business is not a necessity like the grocery store, but it is a necessity like the managers and the only way to sell our produce, is to make it attractive, advertising in the newspapers, on the billboards and show windows, but advertise what you have. Pulse advertising is ruining something good to advertise and then fill it heavy and deliver your goods. I must say this regardless of who it hurts: The day for vaudeville in Race theaters is gone as it will not draw and if the tab managers do not want to draw, a matter of time before they will be in the same position. I feel that it is my duty to inform you of this fact. There are too many of the tabs that are using the same set of codes you will be going to claim that you are the author or used it first. I don't know which of you are right, but I do know that you don't change and that if you do, get something new the Race theaters will have to run pictures and the noters that are depending on Race time will have to find some other brother actors, it is up to you and not the managers to make Race show business a success or a failure.

Jan. 5— quintet made a promising start by defeating the first five of Minor normal in the Hampton Institute gym team, who won 90. Both teams put up an excellent exhibition of basketball. There was plenty of fight, good passing, fair shooting and the Seaside five experienced its first game of the season in defeating Minor normal. The team was able to has had to put a new team on the floor, and the job has not been on easy one. As it is now, none of the berths are sure to maintain the standard of Hampton basketball under the captaincy of James L. Thatcher. Born in Kansas from Thatcher's home in Kansas City, made a showing car excellent in the initial game by coming out high-point man for 10 points. He Cotton's stalemate was a rather dangerous man to the Wash- ingtoners in the first half, but he was kept in the eighty-five frame. The passing and frequent outbursts of speed of the Washington five kept the Hampton guards quite tense, but they easily be named in the lanky boy, Baltimore, who came in for high-point man with eight points. Sellman, normal guard, was also troubled, but he led during the guard position and wandered up around the basket. Scoring, for the most part, was done in an alternate fashion, although the latter gave rather a lead during the latter. The preliminary content was played between two of the class teams. The Academy seniors defeated the Collegiate team, winning a tie. Music from the school orchestra, the Hamptonians, added much life and peep to the onlookers. Sunny Jim Williams After Championship Jim Williams, hailing from somewhere near New York, and Tiger Payne of California, are to meet soon at the stadium for a purse of $10,000 and what some of the critics call the championship. They went to Australia about two years ago and fought all comers, beating the best boys of their weight and finally putting it over the champions, the new midweight titleholder. After much talk and dickering, the management of the stadium succeeded and they to battle on a percentage basis, something new to American boxers here. It is more of the Tiger Flowers order of honour, while Payne is built after the style of Sam Langford. It will be cleverness against the boxers. The meeting of Williams and Payne reminds one of the time Sam Langford and Sam McVey, two of the United Australia and had two terrific contests in the same stadium.

Fullback Melton and Hill are both fast and aggressive ends, deadly tuckers and fast men under punts. Carls and Lambert rank with the best tackles in the country. Taylor and Harrison get our choice for the guard positions, as they are without a doubt the best that can be found in the Gulf Coast conference. Washington is the best center that can be chosen from a mediocre lot. Chester is one of the fastest and most versatile quarterbacks in the South. Graves and Turner are both clever broken field runners, good passers, and can do everything that can be expected of halves. Graves in also a very good punter. Parker of Straight needs an introduction to the football option but for that he must opt out. I will say that he is one of the best full-backs in the South, or the nation, if you prefer wider territory. EVANSTON TO GIVE CLARK FIVE WELCOME North Shore Fans to Have Gala Time North Shore Fans to Have Gala Time Clark university alumni in and around the city of Chicago are holding a gel-together this week to decide upon the ways and means of welcoming to town the first athletic team that alma mater has ever sent this far west in the entire history of the university. When Coach Sam Taylor and his Panther charges arrive here from Atlanta, Ga., to play the Evanston All-Stars in the Evanston township high school gym on the night of Feb. 21 they will find a royal welcome awaiting them from the Clark alumni. This section of the country has always had a strong representation of Clark and Gammon graduates, who have been loyal to the traditions of their school. But hitherto they have had to display their loyalty at a distance. No Panther athletic team has ever been Michigan. It is only natural then that the news of the coming of the Clark basketball quintet, rated one of the best in the country, have stirred Clark alumni in action. They are making plans now to take the leading role in the "Clark university night" celebration that will be held on Friday, March 21 and to help their schools athletes boost Clark's stock around this section. The same boys whose fast gridiron team was Clark on the athletic map in the last season will be seen in uniform in Evanson on the night of the 21st. "Squat" Johnson, labeled on the gridiron, is putting back the Southern team captain and scoring ace of the Clark quintet. Shortly Beck, who, like Johnson, is runningmate of Johnson in the business of basket tossing, just as he was in the business of scoring touchdowns last year. And the John-Bob combination is the care game as in the grid sport. Itty Bityton, the Clark end whose work negates. Morehouse drew the team's first championship baller who has and will be in the Clark line-up on the list of February. Dalton is known around this part of Illinois. In Evanston sport fans are all alike. What will be the biggest basketball game ever sung in, the North Shore city in many a long day. Both Evanston and Chicago fans are making up box parties for the gala night. Cooper Hurls Giants to an 8 to 2 Victory Cooper Hurls Giants to an 8 to 2 Victory Detroit Beats Gary Detroit, Mich.

Fans here in Atlanta are having a game season in so far a basketball is concerned, and the team has been average Atlanta sport morsel and they are attending the games on home teams, and other conference representatives, viz. Fisk, Florida and Tennessee, are to have case teams, and if so, why are they not playing at the same conference is planning to stage a tournament by active play and elimination. A tournament held here in Atlanta or Nashville would prove important thing to set off the 1926-1927 league. Couch Dreery and his brown and blue-clad Taladega basketkeepers invaded Atlanta during the week and under the sting of a brace of defeats administered in succession by Morris Brown and Atlanta. The visitors displayed a splendid passing display, but the team simply miserable. Dixon, diminutive forward of the Taladega bunch, was the outstanding performer for his team. The defense of the Alabama was a strong one, and the crack "Whirlwind" and "Hurricane" forward. We believe that Taladega with a little polish added to her shooting game, will make any quintet in Duke fight hard to stave Atlanta continued her winning stride with two more victories added to her string during the game. The Braves were not and defeated by the decisive count of 35 in 27 a week ago, and the crimson certainly gave no alarms of letting up in the Tailgating game. The Braves would not stop for 2 hours. In so far as an old-line observation is able to determine, we believe that so far, if a team which has appeared stronger than the Atlanta team would get our vote. We are calmly waiting until the next Athina-Clark encounter before we pass opinion on Sam Taylor's combination of Johnson, Dalton, Traylor, Beck and Queen, then they are without a single doubt the class of the South. BALTIMORE ATH HARD SCHEDU Dalhimer, Mt. Jan. 6- The Baltimore Athletics will meet their second fraternity team when Howard university's Omega team, so well known as the Delta big five, comes to town.

LOUIS Chark came back and included Morehouse a severe drubbing last week, when he was 16 and a 36 to 25 count at the cessation of hostilities. Dalton, as per custom, was a lion in the light and brought him to the court with sensational shots after drubbing Missouri Fans See the Famous Tiger B. R. C. FISHER St. Louis, Mo. Jan. 18—Theodore "Tiger" Flowers, champion of the world, who wished Wade Wallace a pleasant moment, recently in Chicago in seven out of 18 rounds and was then demolished. Flowers gave local borough funs the climax in a four-round exhibition at the new Coliseum. Flowers' highly in-vestigated entertainment was with 16th-round, light heavyweight from Alabam. In his exhibition "Tiger" he "showed many of his cleverest tricks, which included considerable prestige in 1925 when he knocked out Kid Norfolk in the first round of a match in New York.

The city buoyed commission. past several snarling Tigers. Johnson displayed his true form and with the aid of the speedy Beck ran rings around his opponents. McNiel. Queen and Hazzard also did well. Morehouse played a sterling role, and the team accurately timed and directed Panther shots.

In 2010, he exhibited, according to an announcement by Matchmaker Harry Cook, that he would be in the rounds, saw "Kid Dusty" at a considerable weight disadvantage battle with Moulton. The face was Moulton's, the edge his opponent, but Moulton showed superior ability through most of the fight, better judgment in timing his punches.

Johnson was the monarch for the first two rounds. "Shimitz would not give up. Three at bell time Johnson was groggy, but would come back for more. At last, with 25 seconds of the fifth, "Shimitz would not give up and Johnson gave up the ghost. In the third flight, a scheduled eight-round bout at 118 pounds, a 100-meter distance, kicked Kid Iinky, and continued to do so with monotonic frequency; but he was not able to keep the fifth, when renewed vigor seemed to possess him, but to his own detriment. Hawkins sent a terrific right kick, and the canvas with an amazing result. Tuskegee and Alabama swung into action during the week and the Tigers were Worthington. In those columns someone asked that Coach Abbott would have a good team and the present week is over we action.

Abbott houses at 7 p.m., then hustled down to the Y to take a look at the Talladega-Atlanta game. The two games were both of the half-hearted variety.

It is his avowed interest in athletics in college as much as possible and at the same time study athletes. Why? Because he some day expects to be a coach.

I Koua (Objet DAFx L4L) In this day of higher civilization nearly all of us realize the necessity of a good education before tackling the world, yet many of us fail for short of the mark either through a lack of interest or through a strange as it may seem it is invariably the ones with the greatest number of obstacles in their path who have the nearest approximation to success. This story, permission for use of which was gained only after long argument, concerns the outstanding achievement of a college education as his goal has never faltered on a course beset with obstacles. He was 18-year-old son of Mrs. Mary Byrd, 323 Walker St., now in his senior year at Central high school, an outstanding athlete and student, the mother owner of a college of education, who if continued should lead to success. While still a small boy, when most of us are thinking only of today and tomorrow "hirdle," he is known far and wide for his fun in the city, decided that no matter what the odds he was going to have a thorough education including high school and college. Fire with the firemen, working evening after school and at nights and Saturdays, earning his own way even as a little chap by selling papers and running errands. He was a porter at the Favorite hotel, died in 1915, while Harold was still in the grade schools and not yet. In his teenage, Harold manly took up the role of the family of five, including his mother, two brothers (one crippled) and a skater. He passed papers morning and evening both and also worked at odd jobs during the evening and on Sat Starting in high school four years ago, "Birdie" always husky for his age-decided team. He practiced faithfully that year with the team, and, according to his fellowmates, continued to give his best, although his ability on the playing field in a game. During his junior year he was out with the first call for grid candidates and made the sub team. He continued his efforts on the track team, although never outstanding in this line, made a good showing. It remained for the senior student at Piqua high for "Birdie" to come into his own as an athlete when for the first time in his career he was selected the coach of the team. He played injured early in the season, he played stalked football all the way. His 196 pounds of fighting bone and muscle, locked by a real knowledge of the game, seasoned for Piqua's unseasoned team. In addition to playing in every session, he helped the student session "Birdie" with the aplendid help of his mother, served as janitor at the school, and worked at the start of school. Working Washington, D. C. Jan. 10—The national basketball officials committee has refused to renew the memberships of four local officials. Benjamin Washington, Thomas Johnson, John Burr and Samuel Lacy, all appointed in the 1921 list of Amateur Athletic union officials. When the Spalding Basketball guide was released at the close of the past football season, the names of men were not to be found listed. This did not cause any great alarm, as it was at first believed to be merely an error. However, Washington and Lacy gave one day because between the two of them they "smelled a rat." They decided that each should write a letter to the committee at 347 Madison Ave. New York, for editions of the 1925 rules as well as their membership cards had not been received. Lacy wrote, as did Washington, and in his letter he requested immediate attention because he said he had been engaged in a game for several few days. Though these letters were written during the latter part of November, Washington's has written the reply to Lucy's letter gave her reason for the discontinuance of recognizing him as an approved official. Following it is a detailed account of the correspondence between Lucy and the committee: Nov. 30, 1926 Gentlemen, please mail me, at your earliest possible convenience, the 1927 edition of the official rules, or one already written, as well as my application for renewal together with the fee covering such.

WISCONSIN MADISON, WIS. MISSISSIPPI N.COME, MISS. SATURDAY, JANUARY 15, 1927 FOR SKIN that is HARD TO CLEAR Those unfortunate people whose skin is disfigured by pimples, blackheads and other blemishes, and who have tried first one thing and then another to clear up their skin, only to be disappointed time after time, need not be discouraged. BLACK AND WHITE OINTMENT Does away with pimples and blemishes quickly and makes dark, rough skin appear soft, bright and velvety. The easiest way to convince yourself of this is to go to your nearest dealer, get a package of Black and White Ointment and use according to the directions on the box. You will notice a difference in the appearance of your skin in just three days, and from then on it is just a question of how bright, smooth and soft you want your skin as to how long you continue to use the ointment. Black and White Ointment is easy to use and you can get it everywhere, as more than 80,000 dealers in city and country now sell and recommend it along with the other Black and White Beauty Creations, such as Face Powder, "Incense of Flowers" Talcum Powder, Mon Secret (the dainty deodorant), Soap, etc., which, on account of their high quality and excellence, are now being used at the astounding rate of more than twelve million packages a year. Black and White Ointment comes in the 25c and 50c sizes, but it is more economical to buy the larger size, as it contains nearly three times as much Ointment as the 25c size. For best results in using Black and White Beauty Creations, always make it a point to use Black and White Skin Soap along with them. BLACK AND WHITE Beauty Creations More than 15 Million Packages used a year If, for any reason, your dealer cannot supply you with the Black and White Beauty Creation you want, send us his name along with the price of the Cream or Powder you desire and we will send it to you through him.
