THIRD DEGREE METHOD USED ON PRISONERS Torture Alabamans to Solve Crime Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 18.—Methods employed by the famous "third degree" machine of Birmingham city detectives have come under closer scrutiny with the confession of two men of our Race to the slaying of Police Inspector Ray Payne in a street brawl. Oscar Lockett and Clinton Maya, the county fall on charges of murder, were forced to admit killing Payne after a 24-hour grilling while it is charged, approached torture. The examination was held in a dingy litbed, tomb-like chamber at police headquarters and everything but the physical evidence of the wreck was used to extract the confessions, it was disguised. Chief Overcome No strenuous was the ordeal inflicted on the pair, Police Chief Fred McLelland fainted from his heated exertions and had to be carried home. Safety Commissioner John Taylor the inquisition when the chief solicited Inspector Payne was shot down here last Saturday as he attempted to arrest James Brown on a theft charge. William Loveless, a bystander, grabbed the officer's arm, it is alleged, and a free-for-all scrimmage charge. When Payne and his prey broke away from the meles and raced up a crowded thoroughfare, two shots shattered his spine and a third charge a moment later entered his torso. Lockett, police claim, confessed to "borrowing" a pistol and shooting the inspector, then handing the gun to "finish" the wounded man. Payne died a few minutes later in a hospital. Awake Two Days During the "third degree" friends of Lockett and Mays charge the suspects were denied sleep or rest in any form for nearly two entire days and nights and subjected to a severe examination calculated to swap their will power.

Auburn II, Moore, railway official, and Mrs. J. C. Thornton, on a motor petting party. As in Davenagh's case, a special grand jury has been summoned to indict Lockett and Mays and preparations are going on for a break-neck trip to the gallows. Following their usual practice in such cases, police conducted a round-up of our people. John Davis and Ruthwell Simpen, held as suspects, were released, but leaveless. Lacey Lockett, sister of the confessed killer, and Thomas Galston and McKinley Lee, passersby, are being detained for questioning. BRUCE BEATS GALLOWS; GETS LIFE HELPS WHITE LAWYER SAVE CLIENT'S LIFE HELPS WHITE LAWYER SAVE CLIENT'S LIFE (Picture on Page 4) Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 18. For the first time in the history of this state a white attorney sought advice from a lawyer of our group on how to save his white client from the death chair. Through the intercession of Attorney S. D. McGill of this city, Charles Brown (white), charged with the murder of a taxi chauffeur back in October, 1923, escaped the death three hours later. He has given a stay of execution and now plans are fast on the way to have him set free. Lawyer Seeks Advice With his client doomed to die in the electric chair on Tuesday morning, Feb. 5, at the state penitentiary at Rafford, Walter G.

Brown was saved by a last minute writ of habeas corpus from the state supreme court. He was to have been acquitted for the award D. Uller, a white taxi chauffeur. Following the refusal of Superintendent J. S.

Martin. The governor's secretary was notified of the granting of the war. Continuing to work upon advice of Attorney McGill, the white lawyer raised the point of alleged improper sentence in the petition before the supreme court. The condemned man, the petition states, was sentenced to die in the chair, when hanging was over. The judge sentenced the time. The same was true in the case of Abe Washington versus the state, the case which was won by Attorney McGill. The crime charged against Brown was committed in October, 1923. The sentence was carried out the first time in November, 1923, before the correction statute went into effect. The judgment and sentence imposed in the first trial was reversed by the supreme court. Brown was tried again in April, 1925, was convicted and sentenced to be electrocuted. The case and the judgment and sentence of conviction affirmed. Issues Two Warrants Two death warrants for Brown's execution have been issued by the governor. The execution of the death sentence was fixed in the last warrants for the week beginning Feb. 7, 1927.

The judgment and sentence having been affirmed by the supreme court of the state became the judgment and sentence of the supreme court.

SENATE WILL NOT DISCUSS VOTE BARRING Refuses to Consider Disfranchisement BY LOUIS R. LAUTIER Washington, D. C., Feb. 18—"The right to hold office and the right to vote are insignificant, and if one fails to investigate the other is discriminatory and indefensible." That is the view of Senator Richard P. Ernest, Republican, of Kentucky, who was on Wednesday a resolution providing for an investigation of the alleged sale of federal patronage. This resolution, which was approved by the general Judgment, the state Judiciary, have been made in the public press and on the floor of the senate that officers of political party organizations have been engaged in the bad behavior in respect to the appointment of federal officers and have levied assessments upon federal officials and have influenced and controlled federal official performance of their official duties. Asks Investigation It asks that the judiciary committee be authorized and directed to make thorough investigations. The committee would be empowered to sit and act at such times and places as it may deem necessary, and be empowered to not through a subcommittee. This subcommittee would have all the powers conferred by the Senate resolution. This resolution was reported as a substitute for the resolutions introduced in the senate by Senator William H. McCormick and Senator William H. King, Democrat, of Utah. The Harris resolution asked for an investigation of a report by the fepublican party in the state of Georgia has engaged in the barter of federal offices or of his influence of the federal office of his office." The King resolution provided for a broader investigation. Both of these resolutions were reported in the Senate resolution, and the Committee referred them to a subcommittee consisting of Senator George W. Norris, Reps. for Alaska, and Senators Ernst and King. Aks Definite Charges Senator Berns sought to provide by amendment that no investigation should be made under the resolution unless charges were made by responsible parties. This amendment would be vetoed to limit the investigation to reported conditions in Georgia. This also failed. He then offered a resolution as a substitute which provided that many citizens of their right to vote or to have their votes counted" as well as of the alleged sale of federal patronage. The petitioner failed to substitute him. In his minority report Senator Ernst said that he offered his substitute resolution "not because I am a citizen of Georgia, but because I believe that if an investigation must be made of the actions of officers of political party organizations with official ties to the state, or others in the states which may be investigated, are denying to citizens of such states the right to vote and to have their votes counted, which is even now before the courts."

Caldwell of Mont- tello, Ill., a practicing physician for 45 years, seemed even that so many constituted men, women, children and particularly old folks, had to be kept constantly "stirred up" and half sick by taking cathartic pills, tablets, Whilo he knew that constipation was the cause of nearly all headaches, stomach misery, he did not believe that a sickening "purge" or "physic" was necessary.

With a view toward increasing the supply of physicians of the Race as well as finding out the present status of our institutions of learning, the bureau of education and the department of the interior will undertake a survey of our colleges and universities throughout the country. All institutions have been invited to join in general survey. Thirty colleges joined in an invitation, which resulted in the inauguration of the new department. It is expected that this number will be increased by 108 other institutions. Since the survey made in 1916 by the Phleps-Stokes fund, no attempt has been made to evaluate the work of the regional institutions with present day standards. A serious result of this indifference is the effect upon the supply of Race physicians. The American Medical College, which was founded by our colleges in preparation for admission to medical colleges in accordance with the facts revealed in 1916, this limits the number of students to just a few, and prepares for medical colleges in the small number of Race colleges approved by the association. It is thought that the new survey will show that several additional students would entitle their students to entrance to the best medical colleges in the country. If this should be the case it will tend to relieve concern about the health of both races in many part of the United States. Caught in Explosion Bella Plain, Iowa, Feb. 18—B. L.

Mullowney, who is here in the interest of *Michigan* $100,000. The luncheon was one of a series of the gatherings one of a series of grades greeted their president. The luncheon was produced for two-minute talks by the teastmaster, Dr. S. W. Smith, national president of the association. Dr. S. W. Smith, Dr. T. M. Smith, president; J. M. Dr. T. M.

The speaker is paying more than the institution $25,000 to his brief stay in the city. Attends Three Meetings After Dr. Mullowney's address Dr. Smith called upon the alumni members present to contribute a lunchroom offering to Mellary, a college for Mellary's president. At 11 o'clock he spoke at the Ebenezer Baptist church; at 3 p. m. he addressed an audience of 50 students. He baptized church in and at 5 p. m. he addressed a speaker at Friendship Baptist church on the West side. In all of his addresses Dr. Mullowney stressed the needs of Mellary's endowment for the faculty and student body, and asked four would be given from other sources. The speaker reminded his audience not those of the faculty or student body or the alumni, but rather the needs of the entire race. Since Mellary must furnish men to render services to the faculty and people living west of the Allegheny mountains and south of the Mason and Dixon line, Mellary is the only school of medicine in that vast territory. Face can secure a medical education. Urnes Race Patronage "Mahary should be to you what Harvard, Yale, Columbia and the University of Pennsylvania are to you. You should be his audience. He added: 'You should trust try your own practitioners if you are to produce specialists in the various departments of the hospital. All of the great wide specialists and stages of medicine and surgery secured their information by practicing upon their authorities if you want to have authorities on medical and surgical subjects. Mulloway concluded with the assertion that the infant death rate among our people is larger than among other groups, as is the death rate from venereal diseases and sexually transmitted diseases. These courses must be out, down by adequately trained men. Dr. Mulloway left Monday night for Nashville after having attended the University of Tennessee hospital and state board examiners at the Sherman house. He stated that out of the graduating class of 1935 by the graduates who had appeared before 13 different state boards.

A direct attack at justice and right was shown last week when the attorneys for the school authorities filed a lawsuit against members of the case brought by members of our Race against the school board to compel the board to admit our children to all school activities. The state supreme court ruled against them weeks ago. At a mass meeting at the Zion Baptist church members of the Race went on record as opposed to any form of segregation and stated no action would be taken against the injustices dealt our group in the city to a finish.

To attempt to lynch a person is to be convicted and to be imprisoned from two to 10 years imprisonment. Persons injured in an attempted lynching can collect $5,000 damages by the county. The representative is also the backer of a bill introduced prohibiting motion picture houses and theaters from staging performances and create racial prejudices and hatred.

Her talk, "The practical Side of War: Unity," followed a short speech delivered by Rev. K. W. Williams, pastor of Olivet Baptist church. Other speakers, Judge John P. McGougory of the superior court, Dr. Robert H. University Disciples of Christ church and professor at the University of Chicago, discussed the problem of bringing about better relationship between races and nations. In her talk Miss McDowell told her work among the different races in the yards. I get an unusual opportunity to see all of the races that go to make up Chicago's great population, as I stood one day and saw Colored, white, yellow, brown and representatives of all other groups as they met to me that it was there that I could do my best work. And for years I have tried to adhere to that resolution, but I have never been hagged in my life. No Research Needed "I do not agree with many of our statesmen that the problem of racial unity is one that requires great diplomatic effort. I believe that the month last year in that little town in Switzerland watching the oldest diplomats of the world trying to settle these questions of Strife and conflict was a kindergarten effort. Most of those who attended came from their homes bringing their prejudices with them. How impossible, then, was it to arrive at an amicable solution? "One of the greatest thrills I received during the entire league of contests against the two dignified statesmen from dark countries stand on the floor of that meeting and through pure grit and personality, put together a revolution forming me in the face of the league of smaller nations. The men, one from Haiti and the other from India, were successful in getting the war to end mostly, even after the hard tried to criticize the British government." "Forget Prejudice!" Miss McDowell concluded her talks by stating that, since it is pretty generally agree that all the staff members are superficial, "We have a common for," she declared, "That too is ignorance which results in disease and death, and would settle world problems. Let us remember that it is for all of us to attack these enemies together. It is important that have time to notice the differences that are now keeping us apart." More than 500 persons heard these talks all over by Stabla Louis L. Maas, all over the audience in the audience, and took active parts in the services. White persons, as well as members of our Hue society, were present, and capacity. The entire meeting was unique and symbolical of the spirit of the day in which all America was embarked on Abraham Lincoln. It was announced that this was the first of a series of such meetings that are to be held throughout the country in an effort to bring about a better understanding between all races and religions that go to make up this cosmopolitan city. It was intimated that the meeting be officiated by an appointed would be made to stage similar gatherings throughout the country, especially in the South where co-operation between the races is yet unknown.

GOVERNOR FOR PLEA FOR LAW Interrace Commission Scores Lynchings Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 18.—The executive committee of the commission on interracial cooperation, in called session at the Henry Grady hotel yesterday, adopted resolutions strongly commending the recent statement of Governor John G. Richards of South Carolina relative to the Allied States, including providing people of South Carolina to support the Governor in his expressed determination to bring the perpetrators to justice if within his power. The resolutions call attention also to the lunching record for 1926, and to the fact that in only one of the 30 cases reported have there been any convictions and approval to put an end to these conditions. The statement of the committee follows: “We, the executive committee of the commission on interracial cooperation, have noted with keen appreciation the vigorous statement of Governor John C. Richards of South Carolina relative to the Allied Enchings, and especially his expressed determination to bring the perpetrators to justice if within his power. We call upon the people of South Carolina to support Governor Richards to the full in this laudable purpose, "We would point out also the fact that though 30 synthones were used in 1925, only 15 were used in 1928 in only one case have any convictions been secured, while in most cases not even an arrest has been made. "Such conditions constitute a grave indictment of our legal processes, our civil liberties and the conscience of America, and our land, to put an end to these conditions, once for all. "Lynchings may be the act of small and irresponsible groups, but the persistent failure to apprehend and判处 perpetrators may the guilt upon us all." The resolutions were unanimously adopted by the executive committee, the members present being Dr. Adolph Walters B. Hill, E. Marvin Underwood, Dr. Plato Durham, Rev. W. W.

NOTES George Smith and his wife, Emma Smith, are playing in the pit at the Chicago Opera House. George Smith is been president of Musician's local 208 for three different terms and knows more about the workings of this local than any other musician been in Detroit since last September. Tommy Ladinger, back in Chicago for a day, passing through with Henderson's orchestra, says hello to the Verona Blige, president of local 208. Chicago, is planning a new building, much needed. Local 208 is sitting along too fast. They have outgrown the present site. The boys in Chicago are intent on playing over the Joe Muttichoon, violinist in the Vendone theater orchestra, has been fined $200 and expelled from Muttichoon's six months for unbecoming conduct and other charges. This kind of punishment will adjust matters. It will also bad boys who have no respect for the local laws and who will jeopardize the interests of other members of an orchestra by wilfully doing harm to a contract to be null and void. Eigar's orchestra, which recently closed its contract at Harmon's Arsenal, will be closed a while, probably until April, before they become active again. The new dance hall that will grant South pathway, College, in Chicago, its status as a dance orchestra. The Race's best musicians will compose the personnel. The management of the Savoy ballroom will be the lessesses. Good for Chicago. Suthe Renaud, bass player, is working in Milwaukee at the Golden Cafe with a nine-piece combination. Bert Dillard recently married in Rockford, IL. He is a member of the Virginia Bavene orchestra and took the trumpet with that well-known Bob Shaffer, cornetist, is visiting friends in St. Louis, Mo. Bob has a orchestra, being replaced by a youngster, Tommy Gray. Hil Rice and his Cotton Pickers orchestra are still holding down the band. The writer and Arthur (Bud) Scott plan to leave for New Orleans the latter part of February to spend a few days looking over the Mardi Gras. Richard J. Jones has resigned the dictatorship of the Race record department of the Chicago Consolidated Jelly Roll Morton is still the big noise in Chicago, Jelly says. After him, there are no others. He is at least advertising himself. A good friend, Samuel and his Society Symphonies are fast forging to the front. A real clean bunch of gentlemen, raised in Chicago and surrounded by their are a credit to the Rast. This bunch is playing the best "job" in Chicago and surrounding territory, too. Joe Do Paris orchestra, in back on the job after being away two weeks with a bad threat. Stump Evans of the Vendone orchestra allied Cecilia with the red saxophonist was indisposed. The successful orchestra of today has a high-tech, high-tech, high- honest-to-goodness music, Softness and sweetness are the watchwords of the loud, bliry, brassy jazz band. Too many of our leaders do not know what its general use is for. They think it is for show, swinging it carefully and for fro. making sure pose with a little wiggle to the boy. Boys, don't kid yourself. Men in your orchestra are laughing at you. They are musicians and know that you exercise no command over the players, hones the loud, blary, brassy orchestra. Just listen on the musicians playing softly. Get the correct meaning of expression marks. Let PF he very soft, as marked. When you run into F or FF you can exert with power, especially on a climax. In the past all of our orchestra have been too loud and brave, one experienced leaders standing by and allowing this discrepancy to exist. If there are fifty players in an orchestra they should practice unity in out above the other in enaggle playing. Be wise and watch this, bunch. You will get more work, save yourself and improve your organization. After an absence of three years from this country playing the contests, the brothers are back home to work their act on the Keith time large houses. They are billed as the Willis brothers (Shoe Stirling and Billie) for their novel vaudeville offering.

By DAVE PEYTON Passing through Chicago this week was Fletcher Henderson's orchestra, on route to play a two-night engagement, then to Kansas, where he backed to the job at the losseland bar 11-4. A time bunch of young gentlemen compose this musical, a credit to our Race. Tommy DeFalley, for Halley, one to St. Louis, Mo. to play a two- time engran- cation in Kansas City, then back to the job at the Roseland ball- ing room. A fine bunch of young gentlemen compose this group music and a crew to our Race. Tom- my Ladiner, Bun- ter Killey, Joe Johnson, Smith, Pleicher Henderson and other members of his band found joy during their stay, well-lit at the winters' cre- chest and Ethel Waters company Fink Jubilee Singera The Famous Fisk Jubilee Singer made history for themselves while in prison, and now they simply went wild over these singers and their spiritual programs. We should feel proud of them, too. We should feel proud of knowing that the spirituals belong to us. They are, our own creation, bursting forth from bosoms of opium, and we should teach them to our children, let them familiarize themselves with them. The entire world today is recognizing this music, the other music that has been created, have been睡盐 and are just beating to wake up. Our composers are getting busy composing, the only real American music. Vitaphone Cuts Orchestra In the East Vilaphone is cutting in fast on the orchestra, and in many of the large theaters the orchestra has been dispensed with. In the West orchestra from twenty to five players. Time will tell the effects this new invention will have on the movie house orchestra. Devil musicians should be ready to play devil instruments ready a success. The only way to best it is for the orchestra leaders to create some new form of orchestra, and to introduce new novelties before your audiences. In Springfield, Mass., the Capitol theater has cut its orchestra from twenty players to five, and with the business 60 per cent. Back Home James H. Smith, the drummer, is back with the Mannie Smith company. He has again been part of the company four months. In the Smith show orchestra are Leonard Smith, pianist, and James White, trumpeter. Mall will teach the boys first half of week three of the Oklahoma City theater. Oklahoma City, Oils. James Wade's Bunch Going East from the West, James Wade, and his bunch have made good in New York. In invading new territory, meeting new faces, changing the situation, and questioned the situation and are now considered the hottest things among dance bands in the gay metroplex. In the roster are Eddie South, violin; Raymond Whitseet, trumpet; William Dover, trombone; Arnelson Wood, wood wind; Clifford King, wood wind; Roy Butter, wood wind; Anthurium Wilson, banjo, violin; Stanley Wilson, banjo, violin; Eddie Jackson, trumpet. The orchestra is now playing at the Club Alaham, where their contract is for one year. After this contract expires they have an offer to go to Europe. Commodore Orchestra In Buffalo the Madison's Commondore orchestra is still the big noise at Geyers' Teek cave, where it is boosting its stock considerably with the aggression it heard regularly in the air from WMAK, WGR and WEBL. Edgar Haves, the pianist with 100 fingers, has written and performed a new tune, entitled "Chunkin' which is the most popularity with the Buffalo music lover." "Smiling," Gerald B. Hopson, the incomparable drummer, with his out stuff and hot dancing, is one big feature with the aggression. Fate Marable's Bunch Fate Mirabilis and his orchestra, featuring Charles Cream, the well-known bassist, play the Missile river. In his combination are nine players of high type. The bunch expects to land a lengthy contract in the fall. The band whips themselves into shape for the big job. Fate wants to hear from Louis Armstrong, Charles Mille and the band's care of the World's Greatest Weekly. Blue Bird Ramblers The Blue Bird Ramblers, under the direction of William C. Trent, have been together for the past two years, playing the big white society dances they have made an enviable reputation. They are now making a venture in a stage attraction and will be performing circuits. It will be a comedy skiff with a five-piece orchestra, something on the order of Bennie Meroff. The Scribes welcomes the bunch abundant success in their undertakings. Sam Wooding's Bunch Sam Wooding and his bunch are in Europe just what Paul Whitman is in America. Sam and his bunch have wanted to come home for a short visit at different times but have failed in every attempt. The minute some one grabs them and signs them up for his money, Why shouldn't they stay? This wonderful agreement for the last three years. They Polangina Music Shop 817 Broadway ..... Farrell, Pa.

STATE ST. THE GEORGIAS THE GEORGIAS BY TIM OUSLEY The second has changed. The famous George McIntosh owned by Wm. Campbell at this writing are in the state of Massachusetts around the ground on which Gibpus Attacks, the first man of the Horn of Africa, the call of his country at the beginning of the 20th century his gave his life in adding this America to the country of England. After the formation of our now republican form Tim Owley Tim Owaley and Massachusetts one of the states; Massachusetts did not forget Crispus Attacks for the sake of the American Todd in Boston, Stains, on the Boston common, there stands a status of Crispus Attacks erected in honor of the American black man made. And for the sight of those people now here white and black who enjoy the liberty and freedom of the American black man, they stand behind the true worth of the American black man to America. Yet when we the American black man does that now exist forcing us to live and labor under the many class legislated laws by the descendants of the American whites, it cuts to the muck. After all the American black man has done in every war in which America fought for the right; yet after giving his all freely and thus proing to the world his love and loyalty for this his country, the man being dental, quite the much good, and down the golden rule for man to live by. It is not enough to make the black man of America any unto himself what price glory? The K. K. K's have invaded the fair state of Massachusetts and are using every effort in their weak way to influences prejudice against the blacks as well as other races. At present they are against a small because of the mortality of these people have the true American blood flowing through their veins and will not adhere to ideas and plans offered them by a set of destructive minds. The Georgia's first stand in Massachusetts was Athel, played to capacity there are a few good Race people there. Next Gloucester, capacity of business men and the other Race people there. There, Gloucester is where the fish industry sets the pace for eastern market of sea food. On our way to Haverhill the Georgia made a short stop in Denton. We open in Haverhill for a two days' run; many Race Race people here. Haverhill is a shoe manufacturing city and the other cheap. Many of the boys laid in their spring and summer stock. Ed F. Peat and Harrison Blackburn are I have been told made a flyby to show up for each performance. Don Morton sure is one big hit in the East both on the first part and the second changes in the personnel of the show by the middle of March, as the Georgia team who have competed for summer and early spring engagements will be forced to fill them. The Galine will be forced to day and date with us in Harebill. They are one of the big time arts. THE MAN WHO WROTE THE SILAS GREEN SHOW S. II.

This time they brought an added attraction, Cooy Herndon and his educated cooy. Although Cooy has educated me since time he has not lost any of the outlime punch that easily made him one of the business of the business. So now working on the business the Barium gang will soon latch on to, and from he says it is to be too hard to get. And when he backs this credit, I spoke of his orchestra in one of my writings as being a little too loud, and when he came back this sweet. He had cut out the brass and when those birds sat out it was too mean. That is the only way to your faults try to correct them. The band and show was a bigger hit on their return than at first, judging from what they say out there. Sam Gray made me a present of one of the song books and program and it is some class. They have a well photo of the band, together with one of Mr. Collier, Furligging, Evelyn White and Alonso on the back of same, and a number of songs from the pen of Mr. Gray. The program, which must be seen to be appreciated, reads, "Mr. Twin's Elgost Hit of the Season." Well, Charlie, what's wrong with your right arm? Brownie, I don't know your number at Galesburg. J. A. B. Taylor, what is wrong with you and Sport? Charlie Sear, how is the snow? No snow down here. Best wishes to everybody.

Billy Pearson's North the Southern Moon company, 26 people is at the Palace theater in A fair line of attractions as a whole. Some good and some not so good, and some — I can you fill the blank line in this week's small theater. Note that I'm saying very little in this week's issue about the horses, as the time is drawing near to start get-tigers them in shape to campaign, and cannot or will not tout my own idea as it cuts the price, don't you know? The Small Theaters In my opinion the small theaters days are numbered and cannot stand longer longer than the next ten. I think that within the next three years we will be without either, as the public is demanding better accommodations higher and better line of attraction. There are a few small theaters that will stand, but they are located in cities where there is no competition, patronize them, and, too, it is a pity that almost in every city where there is a large and beautiful theater for the show, too bad that they are not located differently, so as to have one good theater in each city. It would break jumps for the shows and give the more profit for their investment. Take Washington for an example. We have three beautiful theaters in a section, in a radius of seven blocks. And we have 11 smaller theaters all catering to our people. That is too many, and we are all open few of them are making any money and unless there is something done in the way of merging or closing some of these theaters is going broke trying to stay open. Now as to those out of town: Indianapolis has too many theaters to be better. This same situation exists in Louisville. There are a few other cities that haven't so much competition, but have theaters. If the present managers in these cities don't wake up they will find themselves in the same position as the small theater manager. To succeed in show business you must be progressive. I have a small theater and I am no exception. I will not be the theater or if I intend to stay in the theater business I must get a larger and better playhouse. All I possess and all my money is in washington and we already have too many theaters here, so what am I to do? My position is a peculiar one. I must either get a larger theater and take up something else. But why should I get out when I can say without fear of contradiction I can say without fear of contradiction outta it. One advantage that I have is that if I should get a larger theater in Washington I can and will get the biggest and best attractions, as this city and for years have been in the booking business. This is some advantage, for at present without my support, I might have few dark weeks or a rotten show. So the T. O. R. A. means something, regardless of what others think or say. Of course there is organization and as we go along we see our mistakes and admit them. Now, as to myself: If I should desire to retire from the theater business I devote my entire time to the turf. The Club Alabama revue played the Lafayette theater. New York, last week, coming directly from the Club Alabama, the bright spot on Broadway. It was welcomed heartily by the Harlemmen. It is a large theater, a corporation. The marvous Creole chorus with the prettiest girls is a standout feature of the revue. Never before has such a show as this drawn such large crowds as evidence at the Lafayette last week. Joan Starr, the noted little blues singer who has held her leading spot on Broadway for the past two years, sang a fine repertoire, songs all international prima donna of "Shuffle Along" fame, started the audience with her latest Parisian gown of orchid feathers. Merle Marques, a charming soulful singer, was a decided hit with her comedy novelties. Her brim dance was a sensation. The barry brothers, two clever boy artists, were a riot and chance Robinson and Johnny Vital, the popular culture and song wonderfully pleased. Glance Robinson in an interposition of Irvin Berlin's "Blue Sky" guitar piece, he played applause, Tedy Peters, the little fat boy, and wamed in her speciality of song and dance. Ruth Walker, one of the chorus girls, played with Jimmy Morrison dance specialty, also Jimmy Morrison broke 'em down with his clever tap dancing. Jimmy Walleys orchestra was unable to play the show onstage, the show they could not make the double from the Club Alabama to the theater.

LINCOLN PERRY'S LETTER Dear Dave: As I sat in my hotel with about two hours' time, I thought I'd take my pencil and drop the gang a line. This leaves myself and partner well, out in the western plain, and hoping when the gang reads this it'll find them all the same. In Focatello, Idaho, another Race act we've seen, "The Whilming Four" is dancing. I don't know how to press the gang about this town, I'll be going about the only race folks here, cause we're the only Race folks here, professional are science. Oh, yes! I've thought about a subject: it'll be about the bill I'm on, and everything in general. We're in a five-act unit. Dave, and I don't believe it lies when I say this bill is hard to use, and I think you'll sure. The juggling act is No. 1, the whistling act is too, but none can do the stunts. Bob Mills, our one-arm planetist, do. Then we in fourth spot take the stage and let our hooking get it, because we always give the best that's in old "Step and Fetch It." The closing act is real refined and very much artistic. Thren dancers, one a New York law, and one an Spanish. A forces nores and curbs in the end that's ends for our unit. Now I switch my subject to surroundings and the eliminate. This country is mostly mountains, so seasography, and so would you the same thing say. If you here with this place would be the treble, with inhabitants living from five to eight thousand feet above sea level. And, Dave, it's really thrilling to see the mountains all in snow, specially when this place would be such sight before. The canyons, which are numerous, also the big vast deserts in fact, all kinds of natural freaks, such as Old Faithful Geyser. Dave, know you you've these things, and you not illusion, so I will discontinue this and come to a conclusion. With best regards to all, in and out, and especially those well known in Portland, Oregon. You'll find enclosed a small amount, so don't forget to rehearse I'm lonely without the World's Greatest Weekly, the widely known Defender, Professional S. H-Hello, Ernest Seals and old Kaysee.

WORRY Let Mus do the wringing and bound to worry, so why not let the bound to worry, so why not let the o worrying and. k. Some one in Mars do it? The work must be done, so why not let the Mars do it? it's astonishing what a vast number of men and women are who are entirely willing to let the Mars and burden of wormy work from their shoulders. ```markdown ``` It's all right for some woman who has her nest lined with elder down, a dozen bangles 8. T. Whitney clocks to count her roll and a palace gas gungy standing in front of her mansion on the main street of Beauland, to say to all other women in the city, "I have a storage house full of buckets and can hire enough Mugs to tie her worries for her. If a crow snatches her about the eyes she can go to her beauty doctor, who will erase them from so much per scratch. If Time steps on like Holmes's 52 varieties, she can have her face lifted. If her city home gives her the impression of an empty hall after a bootlegger's ball, all she has to do is to tell George to "step on it." If she tires of her country Garden of Eden, she has a few magnolia and a bungalow next time she takes her pen in inland Parks or Los Angeles is her address. Women of this class can tell the Mags how to run a home on $25 a week, while she pays them $10 a week with the same pleasant expression. They can also tell to a dentist to have a tooth extracted. They even presume to tell the Mags how to clothe and rear their children economically, while they leave their own children so exclusively to the Mags, and that they have to be introduced to the kids every time they chance to meet them. It makes the Mags sure to be told how to keep a home on $25 a week and not be informed of where they are. The majority of the Mags can meet the expense of a home and rear a family of kids that look like a Sunday school school and never be able to have enough money in their hands. The Mags' palmips, is a miracle of economy and managerial ability. Our Dad died and left so many of us for Ma to support that she was never sure we were not some of the people we had to support. There was no doubt that for our identification tags were in our months; and every time we started to stamp biscuits, Ma saw vignettes of the poorhouse, the poorhouse and Death Homer, the constance, Homer, Sheridan and I used to think the doctor and undertaker camped on our doorstep. And yet, without an income—she never received Dads crown—or a steady job, she somehow tried to care for the sick, bury the dead, comfortably feed and clothes the living and send us to that stupendous place, but there were rarely three months in any year when she was not sharing the food and shelter with some homeless walt or helped by someone. How did she do that, and always said He helped her to do it. Take one of those "don't worry" advocates out of their made-to-order homes and assign them to a task like that—a regular job for the Mage of SOS would even drawn the notice of our blue-sued reformers. Every home, institution, lodge, church, company and business of any sort depends upon the Mass and Georges for its success. Whenever you see a man or woman stand upon their hind legs and vociferously and repeatedly declare that they NEVER WORRY, depend upon it that there is a Mag or a George currying their burden. It is natural for humans to worry. I'll admit that it is foolish, even dangerous to our health, to worry about trivial things or about things that cannot be prevented or are out of one's control, no matter how hard one tries to do his very best. If we are to move forward and upward, some one must worry, some one must be discontented with the present state of things, dissatisfied with the way things are being conducted. If some one had not worried about the slow time of the sailing vessels there would be no stenships. If they had not discomfort and slow progress of the oxcart there would have been no stagecoach for the bandits to waylay. Even the stagecoach failed to satisfy some folks, so they worried about it. They had to snow so things that drop from heaven above upon the place beneath. All of our great discoveries and inventions have had their incipiency in worry. Any jokeole not afflicted with peligra or infected with hookworm is the stimulator of progress. Satisfaction means first stagnation, then retrogression. There are healthy worries and worries that are not so painful for the jokeole who worries because in a few million years the sun will lose its heat, and who can sit and watch his wife wash and from morning till night without ever slipping his lagy complacecy. Lafayette Theater This week will make you long for the old folks at home, but happily, you recall those old "Plantation Days." Here is a review that is considered on of the foremost in Ameri- cation and original "Plantation Days" starting with the Ada Brown, the Hollywood Four, the Three Browns, Roger Mathews and eight Pepper Girls, meaning red-hot. All the warmth and mellowness of the dear old South is here, concentrated in a happy theme garnished with colorful flowers and given a jazz ingredient.

They came all the way from Shreveport, La., where they met the band and Tyus. They are here for a few recordings, one number especially being "Milibling Papa." Men beware. Russell Smith of the Four Chocolate Hunters have written two beautiful songs, namely, "You're Just a Little Flower (that the bees haven't sound)," and "Happiest Just Pleases Me."

I have written of the many beautiful islands of Havana on my trip last physed Miami to a capacity business it was necessary for two shirts to be worn. Coy and Chas. caught a fast train at 1 a.m. in Key West, arrrrving the following afternoon. I have written of the many beautiful Islands of Florida on my trip last winter, knowing the point of interest we had little trouble. Business is or not, after having a little pleasure, visiting friends that I had previously met, we started out on business, temporary contracts was drawn up for "Little Horn" for next season. Do you know it's an interesting job interviewing Havana's fairest and most beautiful girls, yes it is. as plains are under way to import eight Cuban beauties for chorus work in the near future, flamenco dancers will be working this work easy. Life is a dear possession, and any senile man will always guard it as such. Havana is unlike the States in many ways: the streets are so narrow, many of them that it really takes a stifler drive to pass each other. You can see every corner, automobiles are like bees, many in number. I told Mr. Golliver that I would give him a doll for every automobile accident he saw in Havana and if he would give me a doll for Second Ave. in Miami, before night I could buy a suit of clothes, not an accident was recorded. Another thing, every grocery store, meat market, cafe, fruit store or flower shop carries an a side bag that is the best wines and brandies are 10 cent a glass and if you ever see anyone drunk in Havana you can bet your bottom dollar it's an American. At the Tropical gardens one can grab this is to advertise this brand of beer. On the other hand, if an American does drink a little too much, he need not fear robbery regardless of the scarcity of money on the island and the police will see that you are taken home if you have an address in your pocket. We tried to locate Benbow and its company, knowing they were playing Havana bay, and the reports on the show were the first performance was red hot, but seemingly the girls drank a little too much beer or something the second night and you know that Mr. Benbow reputation and he is not responsible, there is a time for play—a time for drinking—and a time for work.

Their parade promptly at 12 o'clock. The concert they gave on the street was worth the admission to the show. The show was staged by Sam Gillis, a musician and amateur Ford Wiggins at Silas Green is favorite, as of old. Manuela Campbell, a polished comedian of the old school, gives food for thought, in as much as there is so much difference and variety of the day and days, gone by. Kike Gresham, the funniest female that ever put on a mother hubbard: Marton Gresham, as fast as a hookbook booker, the greater as a character artist; Walter Robinson, character artist of the Lafayette Players fame of New York; Kittle Bryant, the little dancer who is good at popping up, best known as White, Dixie's own favorite blues singer; Alonzo Moore, the greatest Race mangleman in the world; Hugh Turner, with a novelty that differed from ordinary wood say; Elora Grimes, known for her high licks and spills, done in rapid fire.

A prominent promoter on the west coast once said that the way to judge the greatness of a boxer was by the number of paid admissions he drew at the gate; the one who was capable of convincing the fans of his ability by bringing them out in the largest number to see him perform. Let us start with George Dixon, the first to gain a world's championship in his race. This boy started to tame as a bantam, then graduated into a feather and while in this class met and defeated some of the greatest boys of his time or any other. He also frequently featured into the lightweight for new fields to conquer. Many state that he was the greatest featherweight of them all. Following closely on Dixon's heels was Joe Walcott, far-tamed as a terrific puncher in them all, less than, although it is doubtful if he ever was more than a waltowerweight at any time in his career. Joe had considerable trouble with some of the men he faced on the large ones. Joe held the waltowerweight title for years. Now comes Joe Gans, heralded by many as the best athlete his achievements are recorded in the minds of all associated with the game. He ruled the lightweight for years and often went out of his class to meet and defeat the best athletes. Jack Johnson was the first to win the heavyweight title and as a defensive boxer the world has probably never seen a man so brave and woven around a powerful frame, a punishing hitter and one who could take it, although he was called upon to do very little of it. He was a complete without mentioning Sam Langford and although he never was successful in getting a champion in the ring where he could put forth his best efforts, he was not successful in any case it is doubtful if any man of any color could have taken Sam on PART 1—PAGE 8 一 Carroll Wins Over Simpson in O. S. U. Meet Columbus, Ohio. Feb. 14.—in a varsity 11 freshman track meet Friday George Carroll, Columbus, raced in ahead of George Simpson (white), holder of the world's high school 100-yard record and anchor man last season, which he won in team, which set world marks in the quarter and half mile relays. Simpson set his two-yard mark at the national spring. The race was over the 100-yard distance. Martin Kelly who formerly simped for the Central high school, finished second, Simpson third, and Ellison from Philadelphia, finished in a close in Philadelphia, yard-dash in the three runners finished in a dead heat for first place. Ernest Ray, Akron, placed in the third in Jesse Jackson, Columbus, and Edward Cheatham, Cleveland, showed up in field and track events. Renaissance Win Game by Two Points New York Feb. 14.—The Renaissance five met unexpected opposition from the Manhattan Whitwinds, with the Race aggregation nosing out a winner by 42 to 40 at Renaissance Casino. At the half way mark the local tossers led by IS to 12. Grieve and Mandler of the Whirlwinds threw many a scare into Hob Douglas's outfit with their accurate shooting. The former, netted 19 points, while the latter talked 19 markers. "Cappy" Ricks starred for the Race quintet, scoring eight field goals and two foul shots.

UMPIRES TO WEAR UNIFORMS A regulation uniform for umpire hats will be issued to White uniforms will be used for the house bat clubs this season. the up and up when he was at his best. Now we come to the latest star of the face, Tiger Flowers, not the craftsman that Gans was. Hardly the marvelous boxer that Jack Johnson was, neither has he the terrific punching power of Sum Lungford or Walcott, or could he take it like the above-mentioned pals. However, as a drawing card none of the black boxes have ever had the appeal to the fans that the Tiger has. He is one of the most popular boxers the world has even seen and has won the respect of all races. Most of his opponents in the ring become his fast boxer. Tiger is the type that never fails to please the fans. He is one of the same type as Harry Greb, only he out-Greb Greb. Regardless of the style or size of his opponents he keeps it in mind to the animal he named after, that animal shape he sets a pace that soon gets too hot for the best of them and under the shower of blows he rains from under the opposition gets too much effect rather than by one killing blow. Flowers is the nearest thing to perpetual motion the world has ever seen. His record shows that the bouts he gave forth to battle on around 150 occasions. In almost every case the Tiger wins decisively or loses in a great way. Walk Miller, plot of W. L. Strilhart, and many other punch peddlers picked the Tiger up down in Georgia several years ago where he most unknown. He appreciated the colored lad's ability, schooled him a little and then laughed New York. How many battles the Tiger won in almost every class before he was given a chance in the money is well known. However, if for one thing alone he should be a famous mark in history's game, he defeated Harry in itself is a great achievement. --- Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY S THE WHISTLE BLEW SCANLON REFEREE GRIESEL the Hotbauer-Chicagoans game last Friday night in aggaans led until near the finish when Scanlon broke at his stuff."

Successful both from the standpoint of attendance and the development of star players. The teams around Atlanta were stronger than all the team members. There were more teams in basketball, and as a direct result hold the leading places in the final standings. There were many outstanding performers in the first place. The team was made up of a large team. Yet it was a comparatively hard task quite unlike football, to select the players who appeared to make the team's performance in the conference in this particular position. For instance, Horace Ballton, the wheel around White the versatile and well-known White Pathers, are offered, stands head and shoulders where any other forward in the south is a like manner only to a lesser degree, does Brown out of being a diversity stand out among the genιρs.

As we have stated, the conference basketball season is about finished in the next year, and we are not advised to be a super-high game.

In making our selection we considered every player whose work stood out during the season. In the forward positions we believe Dalton and Squam Johnson are unequaled by any we have played in the season. Dalton is really one of the most accurate, speedy, elusive and dependable. forwards we have ever seen. Dalley and a dangerous man anywhere between the basket and the center circle.

The Omegas passed and shot with unerring accuracy and kept the lead throughout the whole game. Knox was high gopher for the Omega with three field goals and four free throws. Townes made two field goals from difficult positions on the floor. For the Sigma Jackson stood out prominently. Time and again he rushed through the Omega for wards.

Baggas knows that victory over Flowers means much to him. The result of Friday evening's battle at Mechanics building, Then Eddie Mack, Argonne A. A. coach, makes him stand to defend his title against Baggas if Lou wins from the Tiger. Another engagement that depends upon tough winning from Flowers is a bout at Madison Square Garden, March 3. The bettings odds favor Flowers at 10 to 5, but there are many that are better to play. Lois Long, Mike Kiley and Wonghua. Those willing to play the short end realize that Flowers has been floored four times in his last four bouts. Lois Long, Mike Kiley and Wonghua turn the trick. It seems to be only a matter of time before someone will drop the Tiger for the count of 50. Mike Kiley will be the one to turn the trick. Flowers arrived in Boston Sunday and is training at Jim Tolm's gymnasium. The Tiger does not expect to be the last time he gash as the last time these two met Flowers was on the floor five times for a total of 55 seconds.

This time it was the boys in gold who hail from Navier that fell prey to the hungry Tigers. Displaying unapety and deceptive pass work the New Orleans lads were off to an early lead and were masters of the situation until the final whistle. Navier presented a much improvised passing combination, but was unable to locate the basket. While the Tigers shot goals from every angle and sometimes Charles Slim dropped them in from above. McGhee, one of the most vicious of the young life. We believe this is his first year in the game and from what we have seen of him we venture to proclaim a brilliant future. Lawrence Chelen and LeLbert of Navier guarded like demons, a feat which kept Tigers' score from skirting gray. The victory Friday night was all New Orleans needed to reach the cup and the championship. Navier and Stratford are scheduled to play, and the outcome of these games is almost certain that the title will fall to N. O. C. Stratford college is having a rather difficult season. With a keen body demoralized by eligibility and disciplinary rules the Crimsons are making a poor showing in basketball, having dropped two games to New Orleans and one to Navier. However, they are not the only team that they are a scrappy team, Coach Williams has taught his boys to fight and they do light every inch of the way. The baseball outlook at the Crimson and White institution is everything but promising. Many of the old familiar faces are gone, one of which is Al Parker, their famous football and baseball star, who was named the most valuable player. As basketball recruits to make their departure, schools in the conference are turning their thoughts to baseball. New Orleans has already begun practice, while Straight, Leah, will probably start in a few days. At Xavier things look bright for another good season, and with the return of Smith to take care of the mound the Catholics are holding out for another championship team. We haven't been able to learn just what kind of teams Southern, Leeland or Alcorn expect to put on the field, represented, as they seem to make a speciality of having good teams. Homer Robertson Whips Frenchman Boston, Mass. Feb. 11.—Homer Robertson of Boston, whose recent victories over the best middlevights in the country not him up on top of this division, added another victory to his long string when he decisively whipped Pierre Gandon, middleweight champion of France. In a feature bout at Portland, Hobertson is a great fighter. Boston boxing promoters and fight fans are now classing him with Joe Wolcott, more welterweight champion of the world, considered a wonder. Sam Langford is also authority for the statement that Robertson can whip Tiger Flowers, Mickey Walker, the present world champion, or any middleweight in the world. Robertson is much in demand now. Promotor John McGarvey of the Motor Square Garden of Pittsburgh is angling for Tiger Flowers to meet Homer March 14, his child, the three Boston elbies are also trying to achieve Flowers's� Robertson for a benefit in the tendered Sam Langford the latter part of February or the early part of March. This proves how Boston promoters value Robertson as a box office attraction.

Tennis booked show they appear with five or six men who have been playing a schedule too strong to give the Chicago people a run for their money. In words, they are plumb tired out. Last season the public became disgusted. Games were billed as "game of death" and when it did come time to dance on more than one occasion there was no orchestra and the electric piano was turned on, but the prince remained silent. This year, on Thanksgiving, the Akron club failed to show. Coming via autos, it was reported they had been forced to switch to a substitute team played the Chicagoans. DETROIT was billed to play here. The K. of P. H. turned down love and a substitute team played the Chicagoans. Through the kindness of George Arthur, secretary. Money was refused to those who didn't care to stay because of the fact there wouldn't be a team. Detroit arrived tired out—they made the trip by automobile. The Chicagos played a return game in Detroit by auto with one man in no condition to play at all. This fellow had been celebrating New Year's eve and got too much. The Motor City while one of the drivers had worked all day and all night, leaving his work and going with the team. THE Chicagos lost the game. The Detroit folks couldn't see how Detroit could have possibly been beaten by that team in Chicago and Chicago folks were surprised to learn of the score in Detroit. The team out of condition? They couldn't find any other at 3 a.m. and it was just leaving time. But the Detroit folks didn't get what they paid to see. They made a long run with five men. Impossible. Baltimore has about the best passing team ever seen here, and with the proper rest the Chicago club just wouldn't have a chance. The basketball players—they are artists. They know what it's all about. THE Cleveland Elks were due here Friday, but at a room Manager Mike Buss, Ohio, that Willett had been hurt and Rock Anderson was in the hospital. Traveling again by autos, the Elks beat the Chicagos, and put up a far better game than perhaps the team had put up in a straight condition. The result of all of it is that the future games this season with out-of-town teams have been canceled by Manager Brock in the advice of the league commissioner. In the meantime plans are being made to play every Friday night and to give the public what they pay to see. A NOTHER man who is attempting to kill basketball in Wisconsin is one Dick Hudson, who is playing through Wisconsin under the name of the Gilles Post, No. 21, and styling the team national Colored Legion Conference. In the first place, the commander of the post, William E. Hutchins, has given Hudson no permission to use the name of the post and the post commissioner.

It's bad business and when a club goes into that territory with a bona fide list of players who will suffer because the people won't come out after having once been bunched. ALL this reminds us of a team called the Illinois Giants, who were billed in Fort Wayne that fall as having Charleston, Torrent and of Ruba Foster's stars in their line-up. The folks went from far and near. The manager got a fat sum for his share of the receipts. The brothers, the teammates, the hitter and that of Charleston, be heavy on the game. The Giants lost, so did the brother, who sweats he won't be again. In the meantime the dailies are filled.

Both are former Evanston high school performers, and the North Shore high school students are planning a royal reception for their Johnson is a sophomore who won his spurs at Wilberforce, where he played football and basketball for two seasons. He is a dead shot and has a fierce factor in Clark's scoring. Beck, one of the most popular athletes ever enrolled at the Evanston high school, picks up a broken-dell player in Southern football last year. He has supplemented his four years of football with three years of track and field. He teamed up with Beck and Johnson in the list of local boys in the Clark line-up is city Dalton, described as the fastest forward in southern college basketball.

George Calhert is the Panther center of trying to outjump Charlie Fisher. He is a Mississippi boy who is as atm at home on a gridiron as on a football. Leslie Bakar, another Panther forward, who will enrol into the line-up before the last gun, is an old Virgil Ayers and a three letter man at Clark. Spider Queen, Beck's running mate, is one of the smoothest guards Clark has owned in years. Skipper Huzzak will go to the gym to go in for Calvert at center if the going gets rough, while Leroy McNell will do the relief work for the guards.

We run along different lines from men. The American woman is athlete in ability and in tastes. She wants to participate in sports and it is necessary for her to have the right opportunity to present is athletics for all, not for the few. It is in the participation of games that we get such qualities as loyalty, reason, self-control, a sense of honor, fair play, modesty and discipline that we carry over into all phases of life. These qualities are most highly developed in the various ball games from its simplest forms to teamwork, as basketball and baseball. These qualities are most masculine but human, qualifies need for human fellowship. Gymnastics are not sufficient for an all-around means of development because the movements are deficient, but they are invaluable for health and physical foundation for many games and sports. A combination of gymnastics and games mulls for a more balanced approach to physical powers. The fact that gymnastic training is being taken up in our schools and colleges for girls is a great gain, not only to us but also well. The proper development of the body, the upright and graceful carriage, the free swing of the body and limbs when they move give happiness to lookers. The aesthetic advantages of health are considerable. Sports for women are essential not only to better nt the individual for sport but also to give not only of her work. If women only continued their active interest in work and systematically kept up gymnastics exercises and outdoor activities of life would be greatly extended. In keeping with the above we are emphasizing among the girls at Talladega in connection with their gymnastics work, which includes gymnastics drills, exercises with light hand apparatus, folk dancing and group games, such athletic activities, baseball, basketball, swimming. In our experience in intercollegiate and internural contexts we have seen demonstrated the fact that women are more successful in the chances of victory and defeat. They can win or lose and still be courteous and kind in spirit and conduct toward their opponents, developing self-esteem and appreciation of sports and their fundamental values.

"If the action of Pluto is caused by water", they ask, "why does not common drinking water have the same effect?" The reason is simple to those versed in the science of medicine. Ordinary water is absorbed before it can reach the intestines. Hence it has no opportunity to wash the digestive tract. Its action is on the kidneys rather than the intestines. Unlike ordinary water, Pluto Water contains a quantity of minerals exceeding the mineral content of the blood. For that reason, Pluto Water is not absorbed, but passes intact through the intestines. That is why Pluto washes. It flushes all that's before it, cleaning the system quickly and completely. Pluto Camden, N. J. Nov. 30, 1926. My doctor recommended Pluto Water to me twelve years ago, and I have learned to value it more every passing year. Its rapid action has saved my family countless colds and sickness—we always keep it on hand. Louis H. Muller.

I am a young man mourning 25 years of marriage. You girl of 22. She has always been very true to me, and had promised to marry you. She has always been changed, and wants to wait until April. Sometimes she might say to me, "I'm very true to me and has shown no contempt for my wedding is because she is a school teacher and she says she thinks she is your school. Princess, please give me your advice, for I really love this girl. You are out her. Maybe I can be content until but I am very anxious to marry you. It is good to use common sense and case, I believe the girl is shorthair also, I agree with her decision in the matter, until the close of school to marry, it means much to all concerned. Her interest that she may have in her woman, she enters upon a new life, one wherein her time and ambition, which and she must assume, or预谋 to pursue, household and wily duties, make her spend all of her time serving others, which eventually would cause mental. When her school is closed, she has her marriage at that time, will give her a chance to adapt herself to her husband's double line before the reopening of school. She is right, and case, I believe the girl will lose her love by writing. Dear Princess: I have read so much of your good advice, so now I am asking for some. I am 20 years of age, and going with a man 29. He wants me to marry him. But I do not love him. He makes good money, and could take good care of me. My mother is very fond of him, but there is some else. We want to love. He has also worked and many hours but, in Princess, he does not make money enough to support two. But I love him. Do you think I should marry the one who can make me a living and let the other one go? And would I learn to love him? Just as you say, Princess.—Chink. It seems terrible that money has to play a role in the life of a man, but it does, and the stuff can never be told of the tragedies it emacts. Still, we cannot criticize any ones desire to accumulate for without sufficient of this circulating medium there is truly no doing power. Love is generally blind to where the bread and the food come from, but it is soon to cover any get's double vision. It is customary with most of modern marriages, that the groom possess some Miss Bessie Mac Kyle, who is to become the Title of Dr. Walter Grant at St. Thomas Episcopal church Feb. 23, was the honored guest at a minbellous showwiver given by Mrs. Irene C.

It is possible for you to learn to respect and appreciate the first man you speak of, and if he is kind to you, maybe some day you will be perfectly content with him; while with the latter man, if he has nothing, how do expect to get something unless you are willing to save, struggle and sacrifice, merely existing and making your life a burden? A young man, these days, should prepare himself for the future, and, the only way he can do so, is to become skilled in some profession or vocation, so that he can earn and save while earning.
