"Immigrants are welcomed, but the government is not contemplating any campaign to bring them to the country. States is becoming less each year, but our population is growing. The immigration from the French and British possessions surrounding us is large."
"We are enforcing rigid educational laws to civilize the indigenous population. That is our biggest problem now. Since the war our difficulties with the British and French have almost disappeared and we now have an effort to fostering industry and education."

on Questions
Washington, D. C., April 27. Rigid questionnaires were mailed Sunday to six Republican and five Democratic presidential aspirants by Representative George H. Tinkham. Republican, from Massachusetts, demanding that they make public statements as to their position with reference to the enforcement of the 14th and 15th amendments relating to race suffrage.
The questionnaires were addressed to the governor of commerce; Frank O. Lowden, former governor of Illinois; Senator Charles Kurtz, Kansas; Senator James N. Golf, Virginia; Senator George W. Norris, Nebraska; Senator Thomas J. Walsh, Montana; Senator James A. Reed, Missouri; Senator Nathaniel A. Smith, New York, and Governor Albert C. Ritchie of Maryland.
States Ignore Laws
In a letter accompanying the questionnaire, Representative Tinkham declared that this constitution governs the state and that the federal favor enforcement of the mandatory provision 'contained' in the 14th amendment of the Constitution that states that the state shall sanction in the house of representatives and in the electoral college in proportion to the disfranchisement which exists in certain states of the United States to the representative Tinkham in the letter. "Allow me to bring to your attention the fact that this amendment and the 15th amendments are wholly unconstitutional," she said. "and that congress has not taken action to enforce them. This nullification results in dishonest and unjustified actions with friend and illegitimate the election of a president. Unconstitutional tenure of office and illegal elections strike at the very heart of the purposes of representation behind laws and executive acts." "More than this, the nullification of these amendments gives unequal political power to the disfranchisement of the state and the state has no nakedness is whether there shall be constitutional government in the United States and enforcement of constitutional provisions and whether a legitimate and honest one."
Illinois Uses 14th Amendment
The representative's recent declaration that the enforcement of a federal statute recently cited by Federal Judge James H. Wilkerson of Chicago advance of the Illinois primary elections, held April 10, would go far toward preventing Race disfranchisement in the South was brought Sunday to the attention of U.S. Attorney General William H. McCarthy in Chicago in working on the shaking of Octavius Granady, an attorney running for a public office, who was shot to death during the trial of the defendant. The are burying the foundation for indications on charges of violating the 14th amendment, which guarantees the right of suffrage. The attorney general was unwilling to allow the defendant in the South and to what extent the statute referred to might be applied. Under the statute in question it is made criminal for two or more persons to suspense to injure or threaten or injure or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or the laws of the United States. Sargent said he had no information as to what facts Judge Wilkerson had in mind in making his charge to the Chicago grand jury and that it would not be becoming for Judge Wilkerson's view or an application either to the Illinois situation or to other situations.

row, noted criminal lawyer and champion of civil liberties, in an open air speech in the pavilion at Suburban Gardens last Sunday declared that the Race must carry on the fight for equality. He predicted success in the end. The doors of Washington churches had been barred to Darrow because of his atheism. He struck back in his speech by criticizing preachers for their selfishness.
He ridiculed the idea of the existence of a god. If there is a god, he said, he must be white, because he witnessed all the sorrow and suffering of black people and did nothing about it. He urged our people to support their institutions. He contended to them the work of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. He praised the late Booker T. Washington and Paul Lawrence Dunbar. He also praised other
Neval Thomas Presides
Mr. Darrow was introduced by Neval H. Thomas, president of the local chapter of the N. A. A. C. P.
There were no devotional exercises at the beginning nor benediction at the time. The audience sang "Amos," the "Amos" from the "Amos" of the "Amos" P. Burrill read "About Ben Adhem." The introduction of Mr. Darrow followed.
A misty rain during the day kept the crowd away. Only 500 persons heard Mr. Darrow speak. They sat on wooden benches without backs, which had been provided for this occasion.
The text of Mr. Darrow's speech is as follows:
"Of course, I am aware that the preachers, who not only try to keep the people in midnight, but try to take them there, have raised some objections. That is all right. I do not blame them. They are getting a live-taste. They do not want any money to get away from the church, and if the people are willing to follow them and let them put it over, it is none of my business."
"The Colored people, as you know, are the only foreigners who came to America who did not want to come. The Indians were the only native, 100 per cent. American men. Excavated by your people came because they wanted to. Your people came because they had to. They were captured, brought here practically in chains, suffering intense torture on the way and kept in slavery for 300 years."
"If there is any class of people to whom the whites owe a debt of gratitude, it is the Negro; but it is a debt to the blacks." They have no inclination to say it.
"After the proclamation of emancipation, you were not free. You are not free today. The work has only begun. The work for civil liberties, for independence, for the right to go to school, for the right to get decent wages for decent services, for the right to better your condition, that has only begun.
Hits War Promises
"You were told during the late war that the world was going to be different, somewhat different, but not for you. You went to war and fought. The only time Negroes ever had an equal place with whites was in battle, and they generally put you a little ahead. You bought liberty bonds. You were told a great deal about liberty, about democracy and the American government standing for freedom. I could believe it, but I could not understand why Colored men should believe it. You know better. You have been urged always, no matter how much you need your own money, but you never got a church to speak in. The churches were all on the other side. The battle from now on will probably have to be fought by the Colored people. You will always have friends among the whites, but not many. The improvement in education and in property has placed the Colored people where they are to a degree fit and satisfied you will do it. I do not know that I care either, because the people who cannot make the fight for free-

IO, HUM, KIP AND ALICE IN COURT AGAIN
Life Hopes to Tie Up Wealthy Estate
New York City, April 27.—In two different sections of the country, the Leonard Kip Rhinelander matrional chain will be tested by courts this week. In aristocratic White Hiring, Mrs. Rhinelander will endear to have the court fix a definite amount for her maintenance, while her husband, Kip, in an obscure town of Louisiana, will endear to annul his marriage.
Members of Social Register, New York's most exclusive society, were given a mild shock when Judge Samuel F. Swinburne, representing Mrs. Alice Rhinelander, announced that steps would be taken to tie up the 150,000 estate of young Rhinelander before his client's separation case was called for trial.
Kip Not Obligated
Rhinelander, according to Judge Swinburne, is under no legal obligation to pay his wife any fixed amount of money, but his unsuccessful annulment suit, he paid her $200 monthly and continued it by stipulation until the court of appeals affirmed against him. He also paid her $200 every year, his payments have been under no compulsion other than the general provision of law that a husband must support his wife. Besides tying up the Rhinelander future, Judge Swinburne said that he should be to have trust pointed so as to preserve property for perpetual security. Mrs. Rhinelander said that she was concerned most of all about getting herself settled and for the rest of her life.
Expects to Win Freedom
For six months Rhinlander has been living in Ocean Springs, La., and has been a member of the freedom. The fact that he is married to a face woman is sufficient ground there to have the union broken. In spite of the court action in Louisiana, the Rhinlanders will still be man and woman in the same state. So long as his property is in the state he will be under legal obligations to his wife, Judge Swinburne stated.
With the failure of the shafis all over the state to find Rhinlander six months ago, Mrs. Rhinlander's lawyer has applied to the supreme court for an order to serve her husband of her action by publication. It was hinted that the separation suit would be dismissed. The judge would be agreed upon by the principals. Mrs. Rhinlander is asking for $500 a month, it is believed.

probably took a longer time than that and never came back until brought back in chats and slavery. And never came back nothing. It means different conditions of living, and that is all it means; but when it has existed for long periods of time it shows in color or in feature the color was when they went away.
"I do not know which is the prettiest human being, a dark one or a light one. Every person has his own fancy as to color. If you do not be aware that you can look at their houses.
"I know that the Colored people have never had any chance. They are getting a better chance today, how wonderful the rest of it you have got to do.
"You were told that if you bought Liberty bonds and went to war it would be a new world. Well, you would have some of your people fought and many of them died. They gave you a fine place in the army, not many officers—privates—and when you came back after your sacrifices they complained beaten and wanted to walk on the sidewalk.
"There is not much difference yet, not that anybody wants to get rid of them, not that they want to get rid of the Colored people. Somebody has got to work. Some people want to talk about sending you back to Africa. If they did, they would go back and get you again."
"They do not object to your being here. What they want is for you to keep your place, and your piece is to keep your place. What they want is for you to they want, and there is not generally very much left.
It is to do the drudgery and hard work of the world for little pay. Of course, they give various reasons for it.
"They do not want a Colored person to ride in a Pullman sleeper. He is not too dirty to make beds for the United States and have seen Colored people riding in Pullman sleepers, but they were porters. They are not too dirty to make beds for in or to cook food for them to eat.
"I have seen Colored people in ding cars everywhere, but they were wearing white shirts. I have seen Colored women riding in Pulman cars as passengers, but they were holding white bables in their hands to protect their objects to the presence of a Colored man if he keeps his place, and his place is behind, to obey, to take orders, to carry the cargo of the world a gift nothing for it." "In times when they need labor in the North they are very glad to have Colored people come to work on mobile vehicles in the city time, but there is no place for them to sleep at night. They cannot get homes in a decent part of the city. They get good shop objects because they want them to work."
"In the North there is no such feeling for the Negro today as there was when I was young. They are getting the same idea that the South orienteer and the North orienteer have difference. Colored people have taken the jobs that white people supposed were theirs. They are trying to put up the same barriers to keep them from doing their jobs. It is easy to convert people to a state of mind, and they are being converted. They are willing to give tips, but a people cannot gain index to their skills by living on the place the trouble is you know better but cannot help it. They are willing to pay you in that way, but to take tips even is a badge of inferiority. And yet you have to be the bosses and have you take orders.
"You have had to do it more or less. You will have to do it more or less in the future with the help of others about it as he enjoys it, he ought to have always the spirit of resentment and the determination that some time it will be different.

"You are not going to get much from the states. You have got to do right here for you. It has got to be done on earth. It will not come from the clouds. You have no chance to get it from the clouds.
"If there is a god, he saw the first man come on earth and every other man. He knew all about it. You cannot give him any information. There is nothing I can tell him or nothing that the preachers can tell him that will give him any information about the sufferings of Bicks as well as other people. He has seen you dying between the decks on the ocean while you were coming to a land of slavery, and you were coming to the Race suffering for 300 years as slaves in America. He has seen them hanged on scaffolds and on trees and burned at the stake, and he did not have anything to say about it.
"If preaching and praying would help you, you would have had your rights long years ago. Talk about the preachers telling God something. I do not think there is any of them, black intelligent enough to tell Him anything.
"Talk about their having influence with Him; they have it, they have it," he says, pretending, or ought to be by this time, that if there is any god, he is white, isn't it? If there is any god, would he have done something about it. "It is pretty plain if there is any god, he has used such strength as God, to make you feel everybody who thinks, knows you."
"Of course, you never had a chance on earth. I wonder if you are going to have any chance in heaven or in heaven's heaven? Oh, no, it will be a jim crow heaven. White Christians will not associate with you on earth. You suppose they intend to in heaven's heaven. They buy you a crow. M. C. A. and tell you to behave yourselves.
"Whatever you get, you have got to get yourselves. I think you can do it. You have got a good star. You have got a good race. We talk about the Negro race. Is there any such thing as a Negro race? What do people mean when they talk about a race? they talk as an Almighty man, a black man and a yellow man all different races.
"No such thing ever happened. There are no different races. They are different races and different professors. Intrinsically there is no such thing as ace. Of course, when you speak of a Negro, you speak of a man who color is black. A good many of you here were once very different. That does not make any difference."
"One drop of black blood, if there were such a thing, settles it. White blood must be awfully poor to be spoiled by it. And I think not think it is anything to brag about myself. And the colored blood must be mighty good to spoil the whole batch. All of it is absurd and is a part of the same superstitions for death, forever and forever, and probably will be taught forever and forever."
Adam and Eve
"There are only two ideas of the origin of man that people discuss much in America. One is that God gave dust, and then Adam submitted to a surgical operation and the Lord took away a rib and used that to make Eve out of. A perfect good rib too. Then when He got through two, He let the race shift for itself.
"Where and when did the colored blood get in? Was Adam According to color of race? All of what we call race came since. If all started from the same parentage, Adam and Eve, how some people came to be white and others black, others red must come."
"The other theory, of course, is that all human being are products of nature by process of evolution. For example, the race was born in one particular section of the world, perhaps it was not. Nobody knows anything about it. It is not known, generally is considered to be the home of earliest man, the different families parted from that place, some of them perhaps taking a long journey, others, not for a week-end, but forever. "Colored skin, whether it is a human being or any other organism, one, in a thousand centuries or a hundred thousand centuries where white dies easily and colored survives, finally would be colored as it would when we stand cold better.
Refers to Mosses
"That is all there is to what we call race—the effect of climate through ages acting upon the same sort of organisms. A little difference in territory meant a great deal to primitive man. Going across the Sahara desert was a long trip. The desert is true, took 40 years to go through the wilderness. That is a long white. I made the same trip in six hours two years ago. That shows the difference between Moses and me. His early ancestry

here. You produce some very intelligent people. There is no color in brain power. I do not know that America every produced a greater man than Booker Washington, who with his bare hands and energy built up one of the greatest imstitutions. America has had I do not think there is a brighter, finer, more philosophical mind in America than Du Bois. He has fought unceasingly for the equality of the Colored man. Where is there a white man his superior? There aren't any.
Where is there a better poet than Paul Dunbar who has had to write his own while he was moving an elevator up and down carrying white passengers. Where is there a white poet better than Contee Cullen or Langston Hughes.
Where is there a hundred whites?
Where is there a hundred blacks, and the whites would be superior because they have had ages to get it in. You are only 65 years away from alvery. Show me any people who have done as much in 65 years as this poor despised
"Is there anything that white people can do that they cannot do, and many equally as well? There are people who do not speak the poets, and, of course, there are singers. Are there any better singers than Colored people? The white people like to hear their voice so well that they can sing. Hayes go over the radio and mix with the whites. I should think they would be afraid. They do not seem to think anything about it. They are noticing the places where they excel. They never had much to sing about either. That is why they have made good music out of such a fool thing as 'Swing Low, Swing Low,' and they like to hear it, although the words do not mean anything, not to me anyhow.
"Of course in the old days of slavery people in the old days would get together anywhere but in church. That was the only place it was safe to have Colored people together for fear that they would conspire for the slave trade and they would care nothing about liberty. And so the churches did much good service in the days of slavery that they are willing to inquire about them today. Anything else is dangerous."
"Whites and blacks have had their religious views, and to these I have no objections. But let me tell you they fight for equality yourself. You have got to win by your own efforts. You haven't got much money. You need every cent of it for important movements. You do not object to having a chance to win. But they are a shame and an outrage to give them all of it.
Cites Lawyers
"There are Colored lawyers superior to whites. There are Colored surgeons as good as white. There are Colored people in all professions on a par with them. Where did they get education? They haven't had a chance."
"The thing that helps your people the most is the people of outstanding ability and genius that you turn out into the world, and you cannot do this. How are you going to get it?"
"In that field you have had little opportunity. No Colored school supported by the state is as good as the white school. You have had given grudgingly. There are universities that Colored people have been allowed to attend, but you know they are weeding out pretty fast. You are not going to learn to be grudgingly. "Where are you to get a law education? The big universities do not want you and will take a very few of you. They will have to be able to keep you away. You can have you learn to be surrogates? Our great universities want you in the medical colleges? Oh, no. Only a few. It will only be a few years until you graduate. In the United States the only place you will find a Colored man is on the dissecting table. I do not see why they use you there because they think a Colored man, but they do. "How are you going to build up this Race? I do not want to be gloomy about it. You are doing fairly well. You are doing better than ever before. You have got more

JOKER FINDS JOKE IS NOT JOKE AT ALL
New York, April 27.—A joke is a joke, but when a joke is played on an estranged wife, and it is carried too far, one is guilty of disorderly conduct. So ruled Magistrate Well as he held William Halliday, 25, 172 W. 141st St. for probationary investigation, to be sentenced inter. Halliday, armed with a gun metal cigarette case, shaped like a revolver, decided that though he had been separated from his wife for three years, he would pay her a visit at her home, 211 W. 145th St., where she is known as Miss Rebecca Weir.
While talking to her he pulled what seemed to be a revolver from his pocket and Miss Weir screamed, Policeman Young came on a run and arrested Halliday, after Miss Weir complained that Halliday threatened to shoot her. Halliday explained that his wife didn't know that it was a case which he had, then the court explained to him that he didn't know that possession of these cigarette case revolvers is a violation of the law and he must be punished accordingly.
education than you ever had before
You have got to do it by your own
schools.
"In the whole South there are only
two medical schools, both of them
poor. Howard of course, gets some
from the government, but not
poor. The school in Nashville, with
outid from the government, can
hardly exist. There is only one or
two places where you have your own
school. There is not a place
where you are blocked and hand-
capped.
Should Help Fight
"No other organization ever undertook to defend the rights of the Colored people but this National Association of the Advancement of Colored People. Their services are given wherever needed. Wherever there is a Colored man suffering wrong and injustice they are there to help. Of course the prescribing of medicine get anywhere even on a bright day. They are the only fighting organization that has ever done anything and you know what the result is. You know that the Colored people opportunity the Colored people have under the law today, both North and South, than they have ever had before they went into service for you.
"What I say is this: With the limited opportunity they ought not to give all their money to the churches that will take it if you give it to them. You never knew any of them to refuse. You never saw the time when they did not beg, they did not ask for money on the pay roll, and they had better be doing something else, and some times by the very force of an institution they want not the ordinary places, but they want them as fine as the white people's.
"They are entitled to a part of it because there are many Colored people who get some consolation out of it, and they are not for Colored persons anyhow. But Colored persons should see that the amount they give is distributed where they are, and they do not forget their schools and colleges, because if you forget them nobody else will think of them.
"You have only been a little way out of the world, and much in the beginning without the aid of men who wanted to help you. But now you are pretty well able to look for them, and you own plans and do your own work, and I for one am rather glad that you will be compelled to do it because it will give you strength and courage and allow you to show what you have got belongs to you."

Life of Toussaint to Be
Told in $1,000,000 Film
There is a movement on foot to tell the thrilling story of the life of Toussaint L'Ouverture in pictures. Information about this step, kept secret for several months, has just leaked out and the report is gaining credence among rumors, a group of New Englanders, who have rebelled at the manner in which Toussaint has been consistently omitted from histories, and the evident intention on the part of white men to take over the story of this great personality, have created a coalition with progressive members of the Race throughout the country to perpetuate the memory of Toussaint. Apples of Will Hayes and others in the movie Industry, who seem determined to keep the Race out of the serious aspects of motion pictures, we are going to make this picture, and make one of which even L'Ouverture should be proud if he can now it" declares the film's movement. The film is to be at an estimated cost of $1,000,000.
What Dr. Calc in 47 Year
What Dr. Caldwell Learned in 47 Years Practice
Dr. Caldwell watched the results of constipation for 47 years, and believed that no matter how careful people are of their health, diet and exercise, constipation will occur from time to time regardless of how much one tries to avoid it. Of next importance, then, is how to treat it when it comes. Dr. Caldwell always was in favor of getting as close to nature as possible, hence his remedy for constipation, known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, is a mild vegetable compound. It cannot harm the most delicate system and is not a habit forming preparation. Syrup Pepsin is pleasant, tasting, and youngsters love it. It does not gripe. Thousands of mothers have written us to that effect.
Dr. Caldwell did not approve of drastic physics and purges. He did not believe they were good for human beings to put into their system. In a practice of 17 years he never saw any reason for their use when a medicine like Syrup Pepsin will empty the bowels just as promptly, more cleanly and gently, without gripping and harm to the system.
Keep free from constipation! It robs your strength, hardens your arteries and brings on premature old age. Do not let a by-wait a bowel movement. Do not sit and hope, but go to a druggist and get one of the generous bottles of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. Take the proper dose that right and by morning you will feel like a different person. Use Syrup Pepsin for yourself and members of the family in constipation, billiousness, sour and crampy

DOOMED MAN AGAIN SAVED FROM CHAIR
Accused of Attacking White Woman
Washington, April 27.—Phillip Jackson, condemned to die in the new electric chair in the District jail for a criminal attack upon Mrs. Daisy Welling (white) in the capitol grounds on the night of Feb. 18, 1927, has been granted his sixth stay of execution.
Jackson was to have been electrocuted Tuesday. Attorney John H. Wilson last Thursday, however, asked the court for another stay. He said that he wanted more time to study the decision of the court of appeals of the District of Columbia with a view to applying to the supreme court of the United States for a writ of certiorari. Justice Siddons postponed the decision of the Supreme Court. Attorney Wilson stated Tuesday that he had not yet decided whether he would seek a review of the case in the supreme court. He said that there was no reason to read before determining whether he would ask the supreme court to pass upon the decision of the court of appeals affirming the judgment of the Supreme Court. Jackson a lunacy hearing before a jury.
The question of Jackson's sanity was raised after his trial and conviction when it was learned that he was the offspring of an incessous reltion between a brother and a sister.

SOUTH AGAIN HIT BY FLOODS AND STORMS
Tornado Takes Lives
in Tennessee
Memphis, Tenn., April 27.—The South is again being visited by its worst enemies—storms and floods. This city was engulfed Saturday by heavy windstorms, accompanied by rain and lightning.
The 70-mile-an-hour wind left in its path three known dead, 40 or more injured and property destruction placed at more than a million dollars. A 15-year-old boy was drowned and Nip Settles of Surdis was killed, when a tree fell across a truck on which he was riding. Five unidentified persons living at Clark St. and Trezeguev Ave. were seriously injured when their home caved in on them. R. I. Tunton was awakened as the roof of his home was torn off by the raging winds. The family from the house as the walls blew down.
Texarkana, Ark., the center of a three-mile storm area, suffered the heaviest injured list, with 24 persons receiving first aid. It is feared that many farmers living in the outlying districts have been killed or severely injured, with 20 people killed. Tenn. was reported near death from injuries received in the storm which swept that state.
Inhabitants Flee Homes
The storms which visited six southern states are being felt in Georgia, Alabama and northwestern Florida, which lie on the flat coastal land of the Southeast. The most devastating flood in many years Tuesday was reported engulfing this area. The raging waters destroyed many homes, snuffed out four known lives and many more are thought to have been killed. 1,000 inhabitants of this storm and flood swept district have fled for their lives, leaving behind all their worldly possessions. More than 1,000 persons were driven from their homes at Brewster, Ala., lumber and creosote city. Many small communities and rural sections have been isolated for two days.
Rust College Students
**Act 'Faust' in Memphis**
Memphis, Tennessee, April 17.—Traveling in a special train, 125 students from Rust college, Holly Springs, Miss, arrived here Thursday to present the opera "Faust" at the Auditorium. Special street cars carried the players from the train to the theater. A large audience greeted the colegues, who carried out the series in video, and wrote for local daily papers praised the college actors for the manner in which they performed. The performance was a credit to President L. M. McCoy and Miss Zerona M. Stewart, directress. Dr. S. B. Hickman was in charge of the make-up, by George S. Murray, with Miss Wilhelmina Browning as pianist. The leading actors were Robert Dickon, Miss Alpha Morgan, A. L. Reynolds, Willie Talbert and Miss Gwendolyn childress. The actors left immediately after the performance on the special train for school. The theater was funded for the $100,000 immediate employment fund of the college. The final goal is $500,000 in five years. It will be used for improvements, the first a girls' dormitory. The Methodist school has an enrollment of 300 college and high school students, with 25 teachers and a yearly budget of $2,000. The school has a splendid quartet which frequently sings over the radio. The singers will tour the middle and eastern states this summer in the interest of the school.
E. W. B. Curry Leads in Ohio Delegate Election
Columbus, Ohio, April 27.—E. W. B. Curry of Urbana on the Herbert Hoover ticket for delegate-at-large to the national Republican convention reported Wednesday to be leading a white politician, by more than 100 votes. Thompson, who is on the ticket of the late Senator Frank B. Willis, led his forces with A. Lee Assistant United States district attorney, C. Clinton, receiving 8,840 votes for low man on the slate.
Why Should We Pay It?
Certain northern newspapers are now clamoring for the United States to pay debts contracted by southern states with Great Britain. Most of this sum due Great Britain was a direct result of England's aid to the South during the war of rebellion when the British aid the secessionist states percentage. When the South lost the war, the states forgot that they owed a debt to England, and now England feels that the federal government, representing all the nation, assume the obligation. It should be no objection to this plan if it applied solely to those whites who feel that they ought to pay the debt. But it does not. If the United States assumes them, every citizen of the United States is liable for a sum which he had no part in contracting. The Race, for instance, will be paying a debt that vouches for things in bondage; even the things for which they are in vogue in the South today. There still exists Jim Crowism, boorse, bastardy, segregation, disenfranchisement, and all the earmarks of slave system. These are what are South borrowed money to perpetuate, and although Dixie lost the war as far as injustice and indecision are reasons, America is under no obligation to pay this debt. The federal government should assume no obligations that would involve its citizens in an affair of this kind.

That a prophet is not without honor save in his own country, is fittingly evidenced by the following resume of the status of our Race in the art world given by "Sinjin Wood," distinguished crítica. This article which appeared in Musical Opinion and English periodical, said: The African races and their descendants in the Americas have now to be taken very seriously in art, just as their presence in the United States causes what is really the chief problem of that country. To read the books of Lothrop Stoddard and Alleyne Ireland (whom for know is brother to our John) is to learn that the term "genius" is one that which the white American is faced. But, "as it is not my ambition to turn politician" (at the moment), we can leave this side of the matter to be settled by president and senators. Our business is with music. The recent death of dead little Florence Mills is a real blow to us. She was such a highly sensitive artist that the term "genius" is one that she aforementioned term in the offhand way that is the custom nowadays. She was a lovely dancer and had a sweet, natural voice which reminded me of a thrush. Every gesture on her part was significant, and every indirection of her voice indicative. Offence of her unassuming and retiring manner—so very different to the behavior of the average prima donna. It will be hard, if not impossible, to fill her place, as she occupied a unique niche in this country, at any rate, in the same sort of way that Ruth Draper
Paises Coleridge-Taylor
Of course, the standard example of the Colored musician is Coleridge-Taylor. I have often sung his praises in these articles, and so need add nothing to what I have already written, except to deplore the policy of those who do not see fit to include more performances of his larger works in their programs. Whether they are particularly well known, it is certainly luxurious, and has a great fund of natural melody, as well as immense rhythmic energy. What is Colored music? I do not believe it is jazz. I feel that jazz has been fathered on to the black races, partly for advertisement purposes and partly as spite—a point that is not as little as the show is not as paradoxical as it appears at first. For jazz is only music which a use of exotic instruments like the saxophone, and an overbalanced use of percussion, is allied to considerable freedom in syncopation, and the latter is certainly not an instrument undoubtedly happened is that the usual clever exploiters have fathered this jazz on to the Colored races in order to make capital out of a so-called return to the primitive—a return which is always in evidence after a great war. These exploiters clever and quick to see opportunities. It is a fact that by far the majority of jazz tunes are written by whites and not by blacks. Blacks play them better, because they have more vitality where this kind of music is concerned. Jazz, of course, will serve those composers who are spending their time writing jazz concertos and symphonies had better take this as a warning. Even if they were Dwomaks.
they would not make a success at this date; the time is past.
Tired of Spirituals
I suppose the "spirituals" are the real genuine stuff of Race music. They are enormously popular for a quite obvious reason, which is this. Listeners are so disappointed with the modern smart sort of music that they despairingly turn to the unappreciated kind. "Spirituals," folk songs, sea shanties are all specimens of the same genus; and it is rather a shame that this reappears as age of innocence as it amplified here-personally. I am getting full up with "spirituals," but that is neither here nor there.
I have known many Colored musicians. Roland Hayes, the tenor, is a great artist and one to whom it is a rare pleasure to listen. He is as simple in real life as he is on the platform. George Garner is another who writes in my opinion no whit inferior to Hughes. Bea Wendell is a very sensitive pianist, whose general erudition as regards everything musical is perfectly astonishing. I also came across a certain Moores whose voice was Melchior-like in its power and strength. It is artist like these (so it seems to me) who will eventually help to solve the Americana problem, no whit be solved by a kind of coffee amalgamation, nor by the hash Negroes who coruscate in "Nigger Heaven." But perhaps it will never be solved.

URBAN LEAGUE CLOSES MEET AT "PHILLY"
Chicago May Get 1929 Sessions
Philadelphia, Pa., April 27. — The most interesting and helpful conference which the National Urban league has ever held closed in this city April 13 with a formal reception given at the Palais Royale by citizens of the City of Brotherly Love. The conference was attended by executive secretary of the local Urban league from practically all of the charles J. members of the Urban league movement, which now stretches from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the Great Lakes to the Gulf. Chilengo was well represented. Horace J. Bridges, past president of the local board of directors, attended the opening session. Alfred K. Stern and Miss Mary McDowell, both members of the board of directors, and A. L. Foster, executive secretary, were in attendance at all sessions.
The most valuable session was held Thursday morning, at which time "The Most Mary McDowell Panels in Many Local Communities and Plans for Meeting Them" was discussed. R. Maurice Moss, executive secretary of the Baltimore Urban league, gave a summary of replies received from 19 local branches to a
letter asking them to set forth the most perplexing problems which they had during the past year. The following problems were presented and discussed: "Lack of Understanding and Knowledge of the Work of the District in the Part of the Community," "Lack of Industrial Opportunities," "Lack of Facilities, Institutional and Social, in the Community," "Lack of Proper Housing," "Problems of Administration," "Problems of Community Coordination," "Problems of Trained Persons for the Positions," and "Problems of Health."
On Thursday night a large Race relations meeting was held in the Egyptian ban of the John Wannamaker vampire development of the Race was presented. John E. Nall, Miss Crystal Bird, Rev. Shelton H. Bishop, John E. Johnson and Eugene Knickle Jones were among the speakers.
It is very probable that the conference will be held in Chicago next year.

SENATE MAY AID SEAMEN TO GET PAY
U. S. Hears Claims of Garvey Sailors
Washington, D. C., April 27.—The senate committee on claims last Monday favorably reported the bill for the relief of certain seamen who are judgment creditors of the Black Star Line, Inc., for wages.
The committee recommended that the bill be amended to confer upon the court of claims jurisdiction to hear claims against a ruler judgment in favor of any person or corporation entitled to receive any part of the sum of $21,624.66 belonging to the Black Star line which has been paid to the United States shipping board on account, of a purchase by the Black Star line of the steamship Orion.
Secure Judgment
The judgment creditors, for whose relief this bill was introduced, were common seamen on a ship known as the Kanawah. They secured their bail from the court for the southern district of New York on Dec. 16, 1921. The amount of the judgment was $12,035.45. These creditors sided suit upon their judgment in the supreme court of the District of Columbia and sought to garnishe the commissioners of the shipping board. Their writ of attachment was quashed and the judgment creditors were left without a judgment. The sum of $22,500 was deposited with the shipping board on behalf of the Black Star line as 10 per cent of the purchase price of the ship Orion. The creditors were also men of the balance could not be furnished and the ship was never delivered to the Black Star line. On Feb. 17, 1922, the officers of the Black Star line were using the mail to defraud. Its president, Marcus Garvey, was convicted and sentenced to serve five years in the federal penitentiary. He was released after serving two years and was sentenced to five years, ported in the British West Indies.
According to the terms of the agreement with the shipping board, the steamship Orion was to be operated under the American flag. She was to be engaged in the New York-Liberian and other African trades, carrying passenger and freight business to the company controlled exclusively.
Owned By U. N. I. A.
The Black Star line was organized under the laws of Delaware with a capital stock of $10,000,000, owned by William G. Matthews, a member of association. It was dissolved on March 21, 1923, or nonpayment of taxes. William G. Matthews was appointed by Mr. Gurley to negotiate for the return of the money which the shipping board held. The shipping board, however, held that the Black Star line had defaulted and deposited money in the United States treasury.

SLAIN AS HE ATTEMPTS TO COLLECT DEBT
Wanted to Finance a Card Game
New York, April 27—An attempt to collect a debt so he might finance a game of cards is said to have been the prelude to the fatal shooting of Frank Trent, 35, laborer, 161 W. 140th St. Three shots were fired into his body as he stood in the doorway of the ground floor apartment of George Banks, 35, porter, 118 W. 134th St. A friend, who said he had accompanied Trent to the scene of the shooting, Jesse Fultz, 256 W. 144th St, told the Banks that a pistol and shoot Trent from behind the door which was held just ajar by a chain lock.
Attracted by the shots, Policeman Johnson of the W. 135th St. station hurried to the scene. He found Fultz bending over the unconscious form of the victim, the floor a pool of blood before the doorway.
The door to Banks' apartment was on the right. The apartment and other parts of the building and of the neighborhood are on the left. The door of the main entrance of the shooting
Dies Soon After
An ambulance was summoned from Harlem hospital, but Dr. Ghee, who responded, found Trent had died within a few seconds after he was taken to the hospital. At 15:58 St. station that he had called at Trent's house about 7:30 in the evening and the two men decided to have a "little game of cards." However, Fultz said, neither of them had any money to "make the game intercourse." It was then, Fultz said, that his friend recalled that Banks owed him a sum of money and Trent proposed that the two call at Banks' apartment to collect it so they could have lunch upon and they set out, Fultz said. Arriving at Banks' home, Trent knocked on the door. Banks responded by opening it only a few inches, declining to remove the chain lock, of the debt and Banks refused, according to Fultz's story to the police.
Tries to Force Door
At this point, he said, Trent became indignant and demanded to be admitted to the apartment. Banks refused and Trent became more insistent, attempting to force the door open against the fireplace in the apartment at Trent's effort to gain entrance to the house. Banks, Fultz declared, drew a pistol and fired three shots without warning, slamming the door shut as Trent fell to the door. Fultz said he has known Banks since he was in the apartment and could see him plainly through the partly opened door. Detectives were assigned to search for Banks and to check up on the story related by Fultz.

Mrs. Ella G. Berry Writes Open Letter to Dt. Johnson
---
Mrs. Ella G. Berry, Grand Daughter Ruler of the I. B.P. O. E of the world, wishes to call attention to all Elkdom to an open letter which she has addressed to Mrs. Abbie M. Johnson, Vico Grand Daughter Ruler of the I. B.P. O. E W;
"My attention has been directed to an article which appeared in the column of our Elk Journal, known as the Washington Eagle, under date of the 6th of June, 1923, bestowed on me for Grand Daughter Ruler." Sold article and interview with you was made and written by I. Grant Glimore. In this article he deferred payment of the fee as self as one for Grand Daughter Ruler subject to the wishes of the delegates at the Chicago convention, 1928. I frankly confess and freely my accredited representative of our family declaring themselves for such position should be positive that their declarations and assertions, especially regarding the ambitions of others should absolutely run against the fact that I address this open letter to you to the end that all Elkdom may know my stand in the matter. To be more precise, Glimore as above outlined stated that I, the present Grand Daughter Ruler Ella G. Berry, said 'that under no circumstances would I be a candidate to succeed myself, and this would not be true in no uncertain terms that I made such statement in substance or in fact. At no time during my reign have I ever stated publicly or privately for Grand Daughter Ruler for re-election.
"First, I am asking the question at what Past Dr. Rulers' Council am I charged with making the statement? Why would I be asked on to do such statement?" White has long as Vice Grand Daughter Ruler in 1926 I was the guest of Past Dr. Rulers' Council held in Reading, Pa. I had the occasion to address both Brothers and Daughters. I company with the first and tariff, a. Finley Wilson. Imagine me saying how long I would keep the office when I was trying with might and main to get it. What would be the occasion, unless I have a question about the method and time I had given me, not so much for an in-depth, grading of the word whose ambition ran equally as high as one Ella G. Berry, I want to again repeat that I was not questioned in Reading about the length of time a Grand Daughter Ruler was to have reunion. I often have neither custom nor law by which to be governed. Grand Daughter Ruler Hodges remained some 15 or 16 years. Grand Daughter Ruler Sora Fields Taylor has assessed that I was 10 years 10 days when she received the final summons, and Grand Daughter Ruler Laurn E. Williams three years, including the unexpired term of Daughter Taylor. Daughter Ellis, a party one term, half of the next, and then must star refitting misstatements.
"Do you recall, Daughter Johnson, making the statement to me that you thought two years was long enough to be in office? In your own home this statement was made. I replied to you that I had been advised not to say how long I wanted to stay in town. I was not one present but God, you and I. And I can conscientiously call on Him to bear me witness. We did not at any time have a private conversation; you were summoned at the Philadelphia, and I was out in the car with Daughter Adela Bond, your

campaign manager. Then do you recall, Daughter Johnson, sitting in my home in October, 1928, when I planned the silver Jubilee for August, 1928, in honor of the Supreme Mother and Founder, Emma V. Kelley, I say, do you recall making the statement then in my home that you wanted Daughter Berry to be Grand Daughter Roller and bower and she wanted to be? You said this in the presence of Daughter Emma V. Kelley, grand secretary; Daughter Hattle Coaby,
MRS. ELLA G. BERRY
past grand doorkeeper, and Daughter
Mamie Rose Jackson, grand
trustee. When you wrote me announcing
your candidacy asking my support,
I answered your letter in the most
straight-forward manner possible,
told you that you would find me the
same candidate, square-dealing daughter,
and I would go on through life I ask but a field
that is honorable and fair, a chance
that is equal to all in the strife, the
courage to do and to dare, and if I
would have to work with my faith and my honor hold
high, and if I should lose I'll stand
by the road and cheer as the winner
goes by. I shall continue to give to
my grand old order the best that is
with me and leave the rest to my
father.
"In conclusion, I have this to say in addition to the denial of statements charged to me: Yes. I have been, am now, and will be a candidate for the 1928 to succeed myself as Grand Daughter Ruler. My record is my platform and the same do I hereby submit to all Elkdom for their right scrutiny and investigation, feeling highly obliged to study the record and give it careful thought and what that record has meant to the good of the order, that all mis-statements will be retracted. In this denial of statements charged to me, I will give me from a just and mighty God I am not guilty and all I ask is standing room to proclaim the truth and knee room to tell God about it. "Yours for love and humanity. "Yours for Elkdom. "Yours Grand Daughter Ruler and candidate for re-election. Office, 3672 Michigan Ave. Chicago, IL.

His marriage, he says, the sister of wife No. 2, told him that she had given birth to an illegitimate son in Boston about 15 years previously. This boy died about six years later. He states, he was named Theodore Patterson, his father in George Patterson, he alleges in his answer. When he confronted his wife with this information, he states, she admitted his truth. He says that long ago he deserted him on Jan. 25, 1928, she had knowledge that he had another living wife. She was first told about wife No. 1, he states, two weeks after their marriage, he told another Lee. In the spring of 1921, another wife, he took wife No. 2 to see wife No. 1.
He admits that he married Essie M. Brown in the District of Columbia in 1818. Six months after he died,riage, he states, he discovered that Mrs. Essie Brown Terrell had a living husband in New York from whom she had not been divorced. Because of this condition, he says, he assumed that he had the right to remarry without the formality of securing a divorce.

Don't Make a Toy of Your Baby
Babies Have Nerves
By RUTH BRITTAIN
Much of the nervousness in older children can be traced to the overstimulation during infancy, caused by regarding baby as a sort of animated toy for the amusement of parents, relatives and friends. Baby may be playful and energetic at an hour to an hour daily. Beyond that, being handed, tickled, caused to laugh or even scream, will sometimes result in vomiting, and invariably causes irritability, crying or soothe. Fretfulness, crying and sleepiness from this cause can easily be avoided by treating baby with noore consideration, but when you can't see what is making baby restless or upstairs, you can try to pure, harmless Custoria. It's amazing to see how quickly it calms baby's nerves and soothes him to sleep; yet it contains no drugs or oxalates. It is made from a wrapper. Leading physicians prescribe it for colic, cholera, diarrhea, constipation, gas on stomach and bowels, feverishness, loss of sleep and irritability. 25 million bottles used a year shows its overwhelming popularity.

To keep one or two shades when you diaries凑合 otherwise there is likely to be a clash you lose the style effect you arrive for.
Study yourself and keep to the one or

Dear Princess: I am a girl 22 years old and in love with a married man. He tells me that he loves me, and he goes to work at his home. He goes to work together for about two years now. He does not live with his wife; she is one place and he is in another. Still, she is not with him. I come to the house with her but he won't. He is going to get a divorce and wants me to marry him. Somehow feel like the old saying, "You know you're never a good one." I never did it, and even before I came into his life, so I hear. So please tell me what to do, for I love him.—E. V. W. I can't see him with you. I'm having him yourself or his wife any injury to me. Not his fault because he could not live with his wife; neither is it yours that he does not want her any more, so if she continues to annoy him he is not responsible for it. I think I am a woman other who is independent enough to live their life. Regardless of what the world says. To live a life is one of the most terrible things that I can't do. There are no誓言 that can be done. But I have a good time with the people who for the same time, for another live together, unhappy for years. They very often become strangers to each other. I become as strangers to the other. They again, I think I should be both, still outside and start secret love affairs, which only bring on more unhappiness. So in the end it is far more serious than it was. You always have no sense of right. If you did not come between him and his wife (and you say that you did not) you have nothing to worry about. If you know they're only a husband, then marry him.
Dear Princess: I know that you can advise me. I am a woman 25 years of age, a single mother, a husband and I were very happy for four years; then he was sent to prison for 10 years. I was the mother of four children, and much, and did all the could for them, and for me, to make us happy. I visited my husband and I got into serious trouble. While in this trouble I became a mother, by another man, and had to leave him. He did not want to see me, and I was paroled for 90 days, and I went to see my husband. I told him every time he nearly is out. Would you advise us to go back to together again? -Tiny, it is true that truth is stranger than fiction. I am a most remarkable novel or movie. There are some people who will read this letter and wonder how this woman

mess, but human being is made of sin, and when temptations present themselves it is a strong creature, who can resist. Your case comes first as a lesson against getting into trouble. Trouble is easy to get into, but it can get out of it. Again a person seems to never be the same after they come out from under the lush of trouble. It is so now the any sort of a penal institution can be given to its children, and a long time, if not forever. Your case is much more pitiable on account of the children. They are the innocent sufferers, but they will wear a brand for what they could not help. You have been loyal to your husband and that is appreciable. Your trouble makes you feel more like a man who has to depend upon it is to have some one to depend upon. In trouble, I advise you to go with him to the end of the road, if you can. I see no reason why either one of you should seek anyone else.

It was the first time that a chief of the nation had ever attended a concert at a great throng and applauded with the great throng and countrymen the perfectly executed program, the choir, under the direction of Dr. Martin Luther King.

It was allowed or as his ticket permitted in the music cities of the Evening Great concerts. The audience bought the auditorium and almost as many doors, so eager was the public concert in the national capital.
"As a director Dr. Dott is thoroughly dignified and authority. The first performance by the choir in Washington thunder music hall Dec. 17, 1929. Since thunder music hall hull Dec. 17, 1929. Since New York and elsewhere high praise previous occasions the choir showed clear decision, clean-cut attack, well-drilled harmonization, and accuracy of uniformly beautiful. Frequently organized uniformly beautiful. The singers seem to have learned the singing. The Hampton institute choir, the finest music and always captive."
Miss burroughs is to be congratulated for victories in one tremendous effort: I—The bringing of the great choir to the orchestra of the land, Mrs. Coolidge, as a patroness, with other distinguished Americans of getting the president of the United States to attend the concert, for getting the president of the erection. It is hoped that the friends of the institution will rally to the applause and help complete the much-needed building.

TOWARD LIBERTY
Women in Far East Have Not Awakened to
In no country of the world has a woman more freedom than in America. But in the far East woman has a very different story to tell. For centuries her birth has been a long tradition of authority; she has grown accustomed to the thought that her life is to obey—father, husband, son. The woman in China looks like a man and is a woman in woman. The sexes, in appearance, have perhaps approximated more the country than anywhere else in the world.
Resembles Man
The hair of a Chinese woman is pulled back, and she wears a tiny bun that hints at her look twice to discover that her hair is not the color of her skin. She hair, round, smooth face, boyish form, white or blue coatie, pants, slimpers or a bob. The Chinese woman might easily be mistaken for a boy. The Chinese woman works as hard in her town or river sanpah home.
'The far East has its own social
life. The Chinese woman is
on the other hand, the Chinese woman
is shocked at the way Western women
is shocked at the way Chinese women
is tight around her neck and even
tight around her hidden breasts. There may be
the absence of women on the streets at
night, but the women in the clothes
herself are quite neck to foot. Both
are probably due to masculine inter-
action.
The Japanese Wife
In the household of some Japanese the wife is blind to the presence of her husband and master by the ringing of a bell. The husband is blind to the application of servitude any more than a man in America regards himself as servile because he doles his hat to a woman, and a child enrages it not as a bond until some rebel points out the slavery.

Goy Herndon In fact, anything, any white man can do, forgetting his blonde or grayy hair he forced him to accept. In a little town of Florida a white man couldn't operator a tractor used for farming, but he could operate the machine was given the job and the white man accepted the job of handling the plow behind the machine that the Negro was in, and a photo of it as it was naughty true.
Lauringburg, N. C.
I always delight in playing this little town. It is one of the educational centers where students learn the words of North Carolina. J.J. is a chauffeur with men like Spalding, of Durham, N. C., D. A. Dorsey of Miami, Fla.; Lightner brothers of Hallegh and Goldsboro, N. C.; also Mr. Graves, president of the Eagle Life Insurance company of Raleigh; Mr. Scales of Winston-Salem; Mr. Lewis, president of the Afra Insurance company of Jacksonville, and many that I haven't space to mention. But one whom I consider one of the brainfest men I ever met is Mr. Evans, a man of high quality, of secta a large apartment store, groceries, dry goods, a shoe store and hardware. This is a busines sthat a Race man is seldom concerned about. There are numerous stores of such kind in Laurinburg, and keen competition has caused this genus of the business world to think deep. The chain stores came into being, selling goods cheaper than Evans could buy. With thousands of dollars invested he seemed doomed to the rocks. However, he listed about four hundred farmers, selling to them on credit, and selling to their farm-farmers, in their carnions. Last season was a season below par, yet this store did between $50,000 and $90,000, and the beautiful part is that two-thirds of his trade is from white customers. The president of the largest bank of Laurinburg, with several children, has never purchased a pair of shoes unless they came from Evans.
Criticism
I have read quite a bit of late about criticism. Not feeling like giving my opinion to members of the Sims Green show by talking and answering the many letters that have asked my opinion concerning some, I will try in a few words to give my opinion which one can take or leave just as they see fit. First of all, are you an artist? Do you know anything about painting? Do you understand the different lights, etc.? If not, I don't think you are capable of cirtizing a painting. You may say it didn't appear to you, but you can't say it's not a perfect work of art. Con you correct Pope, Tennyson, Longfellow or Whittier when you are not a literary student? You know nothing of Greek French or German, still you pay from $5 to $25 for a seat to listen to something absolutely foreign to you and come out and cirticize it. You are incapable. Only give your likes and dislikes, but nothing to sway public opinion. Dave Peyton with his orchestra, George Bryant or Fred Simpson, with their band, may play "William Tell." Unless you are musically inclined the only thing you can say is, "Well, I don't think so much of that." That which you know nothing of or haven't had some experience in to a certain degree, I don't think anyone is capable of cirtizing. Many will reach the Sims Green show at Goldsboro, N. C.—Coy.
MILLER AND LYLES GET BIG RECEPTION
At Manhattan casino on Saturday night many stars and folks of the theatrical profession were present to help celebrate with Miller and Lyle their new partnership and their entertainment. The occasion was a silver jubilee ball with the entire "Keep Shufflin'" company in power. The Jimmie Johnson and Patts Waller orchestra performed by the Russell and Messrs. Miller and Lyle led the grand march and Con Conrad presented to Miller and Lyle a large silver loving cup with their names and the date on which they entered the arena. It was on it. Many prominent citizens were present to pay tribute to these noted comedians. Jack Dempsey was on the platform and spoke in fine terms about the success of the show said that this was the largest testimonial reception ever tendered anyone in the theatrical profession.

W. C. Handy
The father of the blues, W. C. Handy, will present forty musicians and singers in a program of spiritful music and famous composers' personal direction, at Carnegie hall Friday night, April 27. He will add another successful career of the father of the blues.
W. C. Handy, the man who wrote the electric American classic, "SLA Ala. Ala. Nov. 16, 1873. When he was 20 years old he organized a Nexo quartet in Birmingham, Ala., and played in the cage. He later joined the famous Maharran's Minstrels and toured all over the United States, Canada, and Mexico. He directed and bandmaster. About 1900 he left the road and taught music at a southern college. About that time he moved to northern and southern states.
The year 1903 was an important one in Handy's career, for it was about then that he began his creativeness, and he began to sing and snatches he heard song by the Negroes among whom he lived. Like Liszt in Hungary, Handy got the idea that some one should preserve the music he heard, and choreatting the various vagrant melodies he had heard among the half-Joyous, half-Sad Negroes around him. When he wrote the song called Mr Crump in which he used several of the folk singles he had heard. He organized a band and played Mr Crump everywhere he went. A few years later he wrote the piece to The Memphis Blues. This was the first blues. It was an overnight hit. It was a new thing. The Memphis Blues was the first time musicians were allowed "to do their stuff." It was the first jazz piece in the world. In 1913 Handy wrote the Jogo Blues. A little later he took a part in a concert posed the great American perennial, St. Louis Blues. This was in 1914 just as the great World war began. St. Louis Blues is still the most vital song in the United States.
Beate St. Blues, Yellow Dog Dubs and others followed and quickly became ronemondious hits. The Composers Handy to bring his Memphis band to New York city. A number of records were mute, and Handy's handy band in demand all over the country. The year 1918 found Handy in New York city. Real success came at the age of 21, and Handy's band of his Yellow Dog Dubs were sold in the following year. Since then over five million records of W. C. Composers have have been recorded, in fact both his joy and joy, W. C. Handy is a real person and a great force in American music. He comes now, a world figure to be admired by many. His work has been highly praised by both musical and literary critics. He has finally won two Grammy Awards and was called one of America's few geniuses.
Paul Ash and his orchestra was the special attraction at the Savoy ballroom, Chicago, just Saturday night, jubilee day, jubilee day, away. Paul broke the record in attendance at the Savoy. He and his bunch were cheered thunderously by the enthusiastic throng. Our group loves Paul Ash. He has always been a fan of the orchestra and more than any other Nordic to advance our show folks, always placing them in his shows, not so much because he admired them but because of their unusual ability to deceive us. This Paul Ash says he recognizes. Eddie South and his orchestra are the hit of Broadway. They are under the perimeter of the stage. This Paul Ash tells me the musical bunch is asking.

Too much jealousy exists among the musicians today. If one of us gets up in the game there are many who resort to all kinds of tricks to pull the successful of them, by retarding their own progress. When those of our own band go on to achieve a success, we should all get behind them and boost, at the same time, to reach their rant ourselves. Jealousy gets us no work, and makes us miserable to think that

others can surpass us. In the world there are untold numbers of them who are existing and doing well, and there are many which are not successful. Jealousy is the cause of most of them not being knocking the other fellow, who pays no attention and is taking advantage of their idle gossip by delivering and knocking the other fellow, very true. "Every knock is a boost." A rumor is current at this time in Chicago of one orchestra being jealous that they are going to hire hoodlums to visit the amusement place where the orchestra works, to hiss the effe- tors, and if it is their intention to do these things, they had better stop and think. Hight minds never sleep. Many a Wolf has been caught in a

Editor's Note: Mrs. Christian is a lady band directress, a fine cornetist and has encountered unlimited experience in the world of music. Here are some of the music teachers you do not neglect scale practice.
Teach your pupils the seriousness of good time keeping, correct players' practice whole tones, and keep long. This will strengthen the lips and greatly improve the tone.
Another important thing is the staccato tongue and breath control, which is needed in triple and double tonguing.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
The movement to establish a permanent and useful memorial to the late Florence Mills has been a refinement of a great popular wave of desire to express its affection for one who made millions happy and was all her short life so full of sympathy for her fellows. The memorial represents a crystallization of her own life and the hands of the hands of the Florence Mills Theatrical association, incorporated.
Story of the Memorial Fund
The first impulse of the friends of BERMUT BERMUT, discussed in her home shortly after her death the perpetuation of her memory, was to erect a statue. As the manifest interests of her life revealed themselves—her ambitions for the future of the planet, her unrelated generosity to fellow artists and to those in adverse circumstances—it was felt that the more fitting answer to her life in a memorial would be a building and a purpose. The outline of the proposal was placed in the hands of L. E. Jallade, designer of the International house, New York, and the specific plans drawn by him form the foundation of the present program and campaign.
The memorial building is to be located in the heart of Harlem and is to cost $40,000. Benefits have been provided by the public has responded aplenty. Bill (Bojangles) Robinson is responsible for the most successful ones and his latest endeavor is the mammoth production of the cage at the beautiful Regal theater, which has been donated by the Lubbock-Trinz Theatrical corporation through the efforts of the house manager. Performers of both races have willingly offered their services and the musicians, too, have been very liberal in giving theirs to help the performers behind this movement to go through with the memorial building, a fitting tribute to our late Florence Mills. On the Chicago benefit program will applaud the performers Mark Fisher, Abe Lyman, Belle Taylor Holmes, Ray Dooley, Bill Robinson, Teddy Peters, the Kentucky Choir, Clas, Davis and his band. The show will be on the Sleewalks of New York" and host of others. Dave Peyton will be the musical director.

Billy Jones, the versatile singer of popular songs, was the first Colored singer to broadcast in Jacksonville, Fla., and was such a hit that he was engaged four times, many requests coming to the station. The songs, "Everybody Wants Her How-Wow-Wow," the comedy dog number, and "Dab, Sweet as Apple Cider," "Nobody But my Baby Is Getting My Baby," the big song hit. These songs were a big hit all winter down in Florida. Slow Kid Thompson is doing a real single in and around New York with great success. Since his wife, the been working for Lew Leslie, former manager of the Blackbird Kid is just as good a single as the rest of them and all this artist wants is a chance he will keep up the good work.

DOWN IN GEORGIA
By BILLY CHAMBERS
Home, Gn.-Making a jump from Alabama City, Ala., the Rubin and Cherry Shows, Inc., arrived here Monday morning. April 16, with 43 cars, for one-week stand.
The railroad home for "Bob" Shearwood's "Ole Kantuck," a company of 20 people, is a 12-foot Pullman sleeper No. 31, bearing the name of "Chester," and is of a bright orange color, in which the condition of the car was used for the same purpose. We were invited to inspect the Pullman Chester and our finding was very favorable. We also proved average ratings of this car carried with carnival companies. The "Ole Kantuck" opened Tuesday night, packing them in for two shows and proved favorable for the entire week.
Tuesday night's program consisted of an opening that clicked, while Frank (Snowball Johnson) and Pam (Johnson) sang and talked act that was fair. The youngster is a new member added here; Hattle Mae Wilcox and girls mude the baby; the youngster is Baby. Then Lewis (Hambone) Burton followed with a dance that is different, and when this youngster learns more about personality he will be from You. The orchestra assembled on the stage and rendered "Sweet Partotee," while Miss Estelle Holmes and Mrs. Holmes from You. This young lady has an excellent personality, besides a counsouther's voice. The orchestra left an applauding auditor, Covan's rendition of "Muddy Water," etc., was a hit. She too, has a pleasing personality. Miss Wilcox and girls preceded the hat act, which was a farce-comedy, with "Pig Jones" doing the comedy, closed the show. "Pig" Jones, the producing comedian, guided the paints taken to present the public a clean and up-to-date show. Besides the troupe's appearance on and off is very good and in harmony to their very good deportments.
The Radio band and orchestra consist of Lloyd Wiley cornet, cornet; Albert William, cornet; Frank Davis, double bass; Vernon Erwin, drums; Vernon Erwin, trombone; "Shorty" Hawkins, trombone; Percy Wilson, pianist and orchestra leader; Jacqueline Coleman, clarinet; saxophone and bass instrument; drum bass instrument. The rest of the stage performers are Mrs. Liza Hawkins, leadin' saxetet; Mandy Davis, leadin' saxetet; Artin Henderson, "The Charleston King." The gang sends their best regards to the rest of the profession, and the mail man will give a welcome message. Lexington, Ky.; west of April 30, Hamilton, Ohio. "Rarin to Go" is the big noise at the week, and the Friday night midnight frolic for white people created a lot of favorable comment. Walter Graham is band leader and drummer for Joe Tumors' jazz revue along with the Rock City shows. The show is in Chattanooga, Tenn., this week. A small man will drop yours truly in P. O. Box 809, Rome, Georgia.
ADA BROWN INJURED
The Orpheum circuit star, Ada Brown, was severely injured while playing on her way to fill an engagement in Pittsburgh, Pa. She sustained a broken ankle. Against great physique, she was a strong act. There is a clipping from the New York vaudeville news paying a fine tribute to the queen of synco-

The act she captured an ankle junt as she was also shown on the train at McKepsport, Pa., where she had been appearing at the Hippodrome. She was taken to a hospital at McKepsport and later taken to the University of Miss Brown, undaunted, made her appearance at the Harris theater on Monday, with the result that her eastern agent, Marty Forkins, read to her: "Day: on job singing from wheel chair. Went over great." Miss Brown, who was originally discovered by Greenwald and Weston of Chicago, is scheduled for early New York appearances on a three-year solid route over the big time circuits.

Salt Lake City, Utah, April 27. The death of Rev. W. T. Burtley, a pastor of St. W., Third St., came unexpectedly while he was in the midst of Sunday morning services. His death was marked by a burying in a munity where he had lived a most useful life since assuming the pastorate some years ago. Under his guidance and as entirely cleared of all obligations.

Harlem is bounded on the east by the Harlem river, on the west by the Hudson, on the north by inhibitions and on the south by one's conscience.
Harlem goes to bed at daybreak and awakens at twilight. The folks who move about in the daytime are only somnambulists. Noctambulism is not a criminal offense in Harlem.
Harlem is run on a bluff and completely surrounded by installment collectors. Most of its inhabitants are short-winded from trying to keep up with their expenses.
Harlem is inhabited by Race folks and infested by number runners. Bootlegging is the chief industry; barber shops, restaurants, roaming houses, ice cream purifiers, undertaking shops and delicacessens are a side issue.
Harlem was famous for the manufacture of promises, but the inferiority of the output depreciated their value. A Harlem promise is no longer compatible with backers, landlord or hotel owner. A Harlem promise won't carry as far as a wingless airplane. A promised bone wouldn't make a starling Harlem puppy

There are enough pretty women in Harlem to win all the beauty contests in christendom. The only way to find an ugly woman in Harlem is to catch her before she gets out of bed or to the beauty culturist. The women are divided in two classes, those who fry hair and those who have it fried. Those who raise good hair don't count them and are not a commercial asset.
Harlem women wear better clothes than the Astorblights and fewer garments than a South Sea Islander. They are excellent talkers, but poor listeners, when money talks. They are slow to see a point but the point is empathic by the slightest amount without money is as interesting to a Harlem fan as a book without leaves.

Harlem is the playground of New York city. The Bowery, Ghetto, Chinatown and East side are as obsolete as a one-horse chase. Those who work in Harlem must be well educated, close to Harlem, not many Harlemites attend the cabarets, they can't find room. Harlem is now forced to go to Greenwich Village for its fun.

The studio is outfitted with every modern requl to convenience and comfort. And Billy's friends, Rory and Eilea, are only working for the Pierce studio, but for ever future, will do business with the opposite race. Instructor, and Eilea, photographer, also have if one has something of merit to sell and know people will walk to learn the race identity of the purchase.
The life of the average Harlemite may be shorter, but it is also fuller. A year's residence in Harlem will convince the most skeptical that one has not lived until one has lived in Harlem.
Billy Pierce
Five years ago when Billy invaded Harlem for keeps, his assets could have been accumulated in a gentle emile, empty pockets, a stout heart, oodles of grit, and a fear-seeking. Now he is downstairs business man. For four years he has successfully conducted first-class dancing academy. Some of the best dancers before the American public are graduates from the Pierce studio.
The studio is outfitted with every modern requisite calculated to contribute to convenience and comfort. And Billy's friends are always welcome. Only Race teachers are employed and Billy has instructed them that they are not only dancers but also musicians. In the future, will do business with the opposite race. Frank Montgomery, dancer instructor, and Eilea, photographer, also have studios in the same building. If one has something of merit to sell and knows how to sell it, not many will wait to learn the race identity of the seller before making their purchase.
Miss Betty Compton is a Broadway favorite, we studio. When we entered she was busy practicing and just been given her. Miss Compton owns most of her time not when showing in the studio that she has taken dollars to her salaries two women, who were no less than 40 of their dance lessons as a 16-year-old flapper.
The majority of our girls and boys have heard ability as singers and dancers that they think it is. Dancing is an art that must be trained and pract approximate perfection. It can't be bestowed on us think we are so good that we can mark time such thing as standing still, we are either progress furnished us the most interesting and delightful many a moon. There was a gala crowd present forget that it was there to enjoy itself.
Talk about the intermingling of the races, then but the blending was so harmonious that no one was bawning.
Miss Betty Compton is a Broadway favorite, who is a pupil of the Pierce studio. When we entered she was busy practicing a tap dance routine that had just been given her. Miss Compton owns three cars, but she spends much of her time on the piano. The new dances that she has learned have added many dollars to her salary. In another room were two women, who were no less than 40 years old, working as diligently at their dance lessons as a 16-year-old flapper.
The majority of our girls and boys have heard so much about our natural ability as singers and dancers that they think it is a waste of their time, and that is just the reason so few of them ever pass mediority. Dancing is an art that must be studied and practice alone enables one to approximate perfection. It can't be bestowed or wished on one. Some of us think we are so good that we can mark time for a while, but there is no such thing as standing still, we are either progressing or deteriorating.
The celebration of Miller and Lyles' 25th anniversary at Manhattan casino furnished us the most interesting and delightful evening we have spent for many a moon. There was a gala crowd present that never for an instant forgot that it was there to enjoy itself.
Talk about the intermingling of the races, there was some mingling done, but the blending was so harmonious that no one stopped to think about what was happening.
In one box as the guests of Billy Pierce were Franles White, Emily Oppen, Vera Cuspary and Leonard Sillman. In the adjacent box were Mrs. Carl Van Vechten, a Russian countess, an English authoress and six other celebrities whose names we unfortunately misplaced.

Jack Dempsey, ex-heavyweight champion mitt slinger of the world, the most popular pugilist on terra firma, and his entire retinue occupied a box and attracted more attention than the principals. Jack proved his highly entertained, but added to their enjoyment by joining the sport. Weber, who before they entered the hall, but we do know that they saw some of the prettiest women in the world, prettily and appropriately deport, deport themselves as well breed women the world over know how to deport themselves.
Harleen knows how to play and has too much sense to allow prejudice, traditions, convention or precedent to mar its pleasure. Appraising it any angle, the Miller and Lyles anniversary was a whooping success. Not among the least of the many entertaining features were the handsome attired social club boys and the classy music of the jazz bands.
Performers are asked not to forget the Florence Mills memorial fund. This fund has been created to build a home and recreational center for our performers. The N. V. A. is now raising thousands of dollars for a like purpose. Performers hearts are all right, but their memories are proverbially short. The cost of the memorial will be $400,000. The campaign is being conducted under the auspices of the Florence Mills Theatrical association.
The general objects are as follows: To perpetuate the memory of Florence Mills by erecting a memorial home for Colored performers; to promote the performance in particular and the theatrical profession in general; to stimulate interest in the performing arts; and to provide for the public: to cultivate the talents of the members; to provide some material aid for its members; to bring about a more harmonious spirit of co-operation in advancing the interest of its members; to promote the performance in particular and the theatrical profession; and those directly or indirectly engaged in the fields of art, literature, music and the dance; to develop a library relating especially to the history of the Colored actor in his worthy achievements in the theater; to collect and preserve the works of the Colored performers have participated, photographs and curios connected with the theater. The Florence Mills Theatrical Association, Inc., charges itself hereafter with the maintenance of the home.

"Numbers" Game Operators Puzzle District Officials
Washington, April 27.—The office of the United States attorney for the District of Columbia is perplexed over the "numbers" game.
the United States attorney for the District of Columbia is perplexed over the "numbers" game. "The police who are all raiding on persons who are backing the "numbers," but there has been no conviction. The last raid was made last Saturday morning by police of the Eighth precinct, arrested by the Wall Street Police on 30, 632 T. St. W.; Charles Harvey Smith. 19, 1103 S. St. W.; James Jake Norfleet, 29, 622 Q. St. W.; W. James Cohen, 29, 622 Q. St. W.; Fred McLoud, 36, 415 U. St. W. Carter and Smith were charged with violation of section 63 of the District code. This section makes it an offense for any person in the District to sell any ticket entitleing anyone to a drawing in a policy lottery. The penalty for violating this section is a fine of not more than $500 or imprisonment. The others who were taken in the raid were held as government witnesses. All were released in bonds of $1,000 each to await a preliminary police court. Attorney James A. O'Shea is representing the defendants.
The men who are running the "numbers" here claim, upon advice of their lawyers, that the game is not covered by the law. They say that it is "within the law." There is no drawing. No gaming table is set up in connection with the "numbers." Tessors simply wager that the number will be such and such a number. This number is taken from a combination of the balances in the New York City bank. From 1 cent to $1 may be bet on a number. The odds are 600 to 1. A number may be played in six different combinations. The odds to operate the game have "runners." These runners call on their players daily and take their plays, giving them a slip and turning in a duplicate slip to the backers. If the players should hit the "runner" gets 10 per cent of his winnings. The game is said to have originated among the West Indians in New York City. The players were unaundened so as to cover the "numbers" game, the backers began

Despite the weather man's most strenuous objections, the American Giants pried off the 1928 baseball lid at the Giants park Sunday afternoon while 1,300 fans shivered but stayed throughout the contest because of the caliber of baseball that was dished out by the two-time world champs. And Big Boy Bill Foster, McDonald, Willie Powell and Harney whitewashed
the Niesen-Litsingers, 6 to 0, while Jelly Gardner "stole the show" with his big league performance.
Among the many things that came off during the hour and 50 minutes of national pastime was the debut of national pastime in the debut of the game in the seventh and second beating Charlie Williams, but got no chance to demonstrate his ability to hit but Ted showed em he could hit the ball. Ted showed em he could home eighth when he hit the second ball pitched for a scorching double to left center and Bobby Williams came right behind. Both Jelly Gardner and Bobby Williams got a big hand from the crowd when they took their places at the bat for the first time this season. Both players came and seemed to be in midseason form. He allowed two hits in the four fittings that he worked and both of these raps came in the first frame. Billy fanned them.
Two of these strikeouts came in the opening inning with men on second and third and after that the latter hit a semiball of a chance to count.
McDonald went three innings and allowed one hit. Wes Willey Powell, and fanned him, and the eighth and fanned him, and hurried over the ninth and struck out one. McDonald fanned three. As a matter of fact, not a foot got second base and the first and only hit on the calf of the leg by Foster and went to first in the fourth. Little singled and went to first with none out in the seventh. Burke hit what Maley raced back for it but Davis hollered. "I got it." He had it all right, but failed to hang onto the ball and it fell to the ground. Davis was to Bobby Willins, thus forcing Little as second. McDonald fanned the next two. And how did the Giants get their six runs? On boy. He fled the fans' greeting of his return by shamming out a clean single to center in the opening frame. Marshacker joked a fluke hit back of second. Jim Brown hit into a fast double play while Gardner and the first run of the season.
*An error by Novak gave Gardner a life in the third. Marlarcher made good his attempt to sacrifice and Gardner went to sleep. Marlarcher singled to center and Gardner romped home with run No. 2. In the fifth, after McDonald had taken the ball, Gardner broke out a slow roller to the pitcher, stole second and went to third on a passed ball. Marlarcher popped to the short stop. Brown walked. Davis polled a ball and Gardner scored his third run of the game. Gardner walked to stair the home. Marlarcher promptly sacrificed him at third after Gardner had taken second and Gardner hit him off first. Brown hit to Little, who threw to third to nail Gardner, who had taken too big a lead off the tag. He allowed a slow run to drop down in the dirt head first and Gardner sailed for home. When Novak came up with the ball Jelly was sliding and the score was now 4 to 0.
The fans thought some one else ought to make a few runs during the game as Jelly had done more than the nine players on the glorious day in the garden plucking in four flies, two of them hard chances, so in the eighth Gardner didn't get on, consequently he could make no more runs. Blossomed forth in the sunshine, Bobby Williams yets, "Little Bobby," the ladies call him, walked. Again Wrinkler erred in trying to catch a man off the ball, blossomed forth in the sunshine, Bobby bled to second. Bobby chews a mean wad of tobacco. That's something black like licorice, but has a masty taste. Ball players play better when they lay out the ball. Now back to our little shortstop. He up and stole third while the catches was wondering whether to throw the ball or not, when one went sailing out to left corner and Bobby scored. Harney batted for Powell and fanned. Gardner flied to Fensel. Russ batted for Marlarcher and on an error and one went sailing out to Brown and fouled to Gorman.

Stanley Is Walloped By Kayoh White
Davenport, Iowa. April 13—Kayah White of New Orleans, now under the wing of Barney Abel, won from Brenle Stanley of Tulsa, Oka. in the first round of the Coliseum here tonight in the semiwindup of the lied Uhlan-Mike Rozgall match, which was won by Red. As had been predicted by fans and seen the boys fight Jock Malone and Coliseum's usual "from the start." Stanley brought four after four from the crowd with his "Real Moore" ants, jumping around the ring like a banty rooster, while White stood back and waited for Coliseum to fight. Stanley continued to rush into Kayo with letts and rights swinging from all angles but White was the smartest of the two and landed enough to fight the fighter. Both boys were hurt at times but White possessed the necessary stamina to stand up under Stanley's blows to face and body, and succeeded in wearing out the first round. The first round went to Stanley and the second was even. White got in a dozen solid snacks to the face and had Stanley bleeding from the mouth at the bell. It was White's
White also won the fourth, making Stanley miss badly on his wristhes across the ring, with his left hand trying hard for knockout and the honors were about even. White's best rounds were the sixth, seventh and eighth, when he won the left hand punches to the body. The ninth and tenth went to Stanley, who rushed his opponent from corner to corner on the left hand and left hand landed on White's body and face. Both boys were batting ferociously at the bell and were given a big ovation at the finish. But Stanley put on a dance act for the laughing fans. He showed that he was still able to step around the ring, dancing an old fashioned routine it for the exits. He proved a clown than a boxer.

most miserable seen in years and many games have been rained out. Trammell is a former Sam Taylor charge in his first year as a head coach. He completed his course at the University of Georgia with a genuine interest that we all looked upon the Clark-Cookman game. I would have brought Coach Taylor and one of his former charges together in friendly rivalry. The weather frowned, as usual, and as a result the game could not be played.
CONFERENCE teams have not been hitting even as well as might be expected on inferior pitching. Correction run artists with three. Flood, the elongated Tuskegee receiver, caught one of Jordan's hooks on the outside corner and sent it on a merry ride back and sent it home. Forbes game a week ago. Forbes of Morehouse has also been hitting well. Any team can win the championship as no team is so sufficiently better than the other. The best winner. Base running has been very daring, probably because of the inability of the catchers to fug run corners. Besides hitting cornelius, besides hitting conference games with good pitching. In the games in which he has worked the opposition has garnered an advantage and has had so much speed coming down the alley sometime ago that the Miles Memorial batters looked down with one bingle, the best pitching feat turned in this year.
**WHILE** in Tuskegee we went down to look over the clinder path and note its condition. The Inclemency weather of course, has made it very difficult to see, and the relays are ready to be run everything will be changed. If we remember correctly, the relays are secured two weeks away and with help from the staff, they will help their all to get into top form. The going will be harder this year than ever before owing to the new institutions who are sending representatives to the 40-foot half of the marks set up last year shattered at this meet. Word has come to us that Pierce, the Atlanta university thenman, who raised such a large number of marks around the 40-foot mark and better, This is four feet better than last year's record. The contestants are showing plenty of interest and fight to be the clear day down at the alumni bowl on May 5 anything may happen.

SOUTHERN SPORTDOM
THIS column is being started just as we are preparing to leave the confines of Tuskegee Institute where the Taylor's ambiguous Panthers a 10 to 5 defeat. This jaunt down through southern Georgia and Alabama with the Clark ball team has been a corker to far, as getting into teams is so challenging for the Panthers three in a row. But these 24th infantry fellows are able to take the measure of any college team in the Birmingham Black Barons who were rounding up an extensive spring training campaign. This year's edition of the Barons looks exceedingly good, and the Polindexter and Satehell, are hard to beat. The road-weary Panthers came on to Atlanta and proceeded to administer a decisive drubbing to the Barons. It is quite interesting to note that the four games that the Clarkites have won to date were all won by the one-run margin. Clark: 5; Morehouse. 4. Clark: 5; Alabama. 4. Clark: 5; Morris Brown. 4. Clark: 6; 24th Infantry. 5.
WITH the sole exception of Atlanta university, all the conference ball teams look none too good. The crimson and gray team has managed to win four wins and a single defeat. Alabama has little to boast other than a very, very excellent pitching staff. The Hornets that won a year ago will be able to put a good fight for the retention of the flag. Fisk university was down in Alabama not long ago and succeeded in winning the game, but found an entirely different state of affairs over at stalid old Montgomery, where the Hornets turned them back on two occasions. Morris Brown turned them back on the team, and like the other teams, Red Bradley turned in a marvelous exhibition a few days ago when he let the Atlanta bunch down with a rather meager number of runs aside from this vicious. The Wolverines have shown not very much more.
MOREHOUSE at times has shown a surprising amount of power, both with the stick and the glove, and despite the sparkling play of the ball, it has been able to break only even. Tuskegee has a fair team and can be expected to win at least one game from any of the conference representatives, and the team has been able to play this afternoon and during the course of our stay saw the Atlanta team take both ends of a double-hander from Coach Kindle and his Talladega charges. The Talladega team had at least eight players in the Murchouse. Florida seems to be a weaker combination this year. The loss of L. N. Anderson as ace pitcher owing to a football injury and the loss of the ball in the ball as in other years seems to explain all. We have not yet as yet received any kind of information concerning the merits of Knoxville or Tuskegee, and we have week has passed hope to be in a position to give a fairly accurate account of both aggregations.
NAT TRAMMELL and his Ethethune-Cookman college team from beautiful Daytona Beach were in the city during the week, and in three games played managed to win only one. Nat Trammell and his team were hitting on the ball. All his bats are specially made by the makers of the "Louisville Sluggers" bats. Nearly all his bats were better than 30 inches, and some are so sure that they will be used in Dugan, Simplimus and Laundy, the Floridians have three real first rate sticksmiths. Coach Trammell has swept all the opposition he was able to find in the simmus and weather in Dixieland. This spring has been the

April 19. — Heavy hitting and fast fielding, backed up by the cool and effective delivery of Finch, enabled Hampton Institute to slaughter St Paul school, 25 to 9, here today in the most one-sided, and long drawn out diamond encounters ever witnessed on Russell field. The game was loosely played by both teams, but St. Paul's defensive performance was ridiculous.

Springfield, Mo. April 21.—Taking advantage of Maples' wildness in the third and fourth innings, the Kansas City Monarchs nosed out the Springfield Midgets, 5 to 4, at White City park this afternoon.
Ketchum relieved Maples in the fourth with the bases loaded and stopped the Monarchs. The Indian righthander's work impressed local fans. He gave way to Peterson at the start of the ninth.
The local Western association club passed up a golden opportunity to win the game in the eighth inning when, with two runs across the plate, the Rogers and Peterson failed to deliver.
Thenhauw and Cowell led the local club with two hits each, while Allen drove out three safeties, including a three arch. Sam Lemen's only hit, a double, was timely.
A couple of close decisions on the ball and at the plate cut off at least two Monarch runs and gave the Monarchs one. Bell, husky right-hander, started on the mound for the Monarchs and scored four innings. He then gave way to Army Cooper, southpaw, who was wild and who also was hit hard.
Andy Cooper, another southpaw, scored the eight and saved the day by curving over a third strike on Robb and threw Rogers, batting for Ketchum, out.
Despite the inclement weather a faint rain fell on the Monarchs put over two in the third. Hopwood walked. Young sacrificed. Hopwood went to third on a pass ball, Bell beat out a hit to Hopwood scored on Dwight's single. Allen's single gave Belt time to count.
Rogan walked in the fourth, Joseph walked. Taylor was hit by a pitcher ball. Hopoward forced Roberson to run. Hopoward forced Young walked, forcing in Joseph. Bell singled to right, scoring Taylor and the Monarcas threw away a run when Hopoward was caught between this in home on the play. Hopoward fell on the sixth when Parris walked with two down and Lemon doubled. A walk to Robb in the home seventh was followed by an out and errors and Joseph gave Springfield one more. Rogan singled in the eighth and stole second after Joseph had popped out. Taylor fled out, but Hopoward came through with a single, scoring with the run that won the game.
In the home eighth Springfield pushed across two runs before the side was retread. Two singles and two doubles, sacks and Lefty Cooper, late of Detroit, went to the mount. Lemon walked, forcing in a run. Crowell hit, sending another across and leaving the bases choked with bush twigs. The winning run on second and one out, Lefty pulled himself together and slipped a curve ball over on Rogers and forced Peterson to roll out. It was one, two, three in both halves of the ninth frame.
Rain Stops Lincoln Giants Sunday Game
New York, April 22 — A heavy downpour of rain which drove everybody off the streets put a crimp in the Lincoln Guilds of the players of the Lincoln Guilds at the Glants at Catholic Protection oval. With Nip Winers, Carr, Gissantan and Rector in mid-season form and Rector, Mason, Scales and Riggs four players of the Lincoln Guilds expect to win from all the best clubs in the country. There is some talk of a post-season season of McCain's clubs and the American Guilds of Chicago, after the western league season closes. Such a series of three games would be a whale of a drawing card, as there are many fans in this section who have never seen the Chicago club in action.

Wilberforce Enters Team in Tuskegee Relay Games
TUSKEGEE AND MOREHOUSE DO ALFONSO ACT
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., April 21. — Rain Friday forced Tuskegee and Morehouse into a twin bill today. Morehouse taking the first game, 2, and Tuskegee the second, 4 to 0. In the first of the series Forbes, the veteran Morehouse ace, and Robinson of Tuskegee staged a great victory, but Robinson's undoing, although he allowed only three hits, all short singles. Bradford of Tuskegee was the hitting star, getting a home run and Robinson was the hitting star. Tuskegee hit a double and a triple. In the second game Cookman, who plays first base for Tuskegee, pitched a great game, allowing only one hit and that of a scramble variety in the second game. Robinson was playing at pitching in a regular game. Bradford again was the hitting star, getting a double with two one in the fifth. In the second game played alight ball, Captain Hawkins left the defense for Morehouse and Captain Woolridge for Tuskegee.
Paul Quinn Wins 2 From Sam Huston
Paul Quinn Wins 2 From Sam Huston
Waco, Texas, April 16—Paul Quinn ended the 1925 baseball season by taking both ends of a double bill from Sam Huston college, of Austin, Texas.
The Tigers played the best brand of ball they have shown this season, holding the Dragons to seven hits in both games. You cannot win unless gougons could not do, for Thomas and McDaniels were almost invisible. The Dragons bunched two hits in the skies of the first game for their only success.
The Tigers got hold of Robinson at the very beginning of the second game and he had to retire in favor Copper, who also hit hard and way to Pay. Who was as wild as the March wind.
This game being the last of the season for the Tigers, Coach Shepard decided to let them have their changing positions with each other.

The American Giants will take on strong teams this week-end. On Saturday afternoon the crack Mills nine, which defeated the Chicago Giants last Sunday, come to the Giants' park. The Mills队, whose home grounds are on the West side, are picked to win the city league championship.
The American Giants affiliated with the City league on Monday night, and will play exhibition games with the teams in the league on open dates.
Following the victory over the Nissen-Litsinger nine last Sunday, the world champs for the past two seasons are anxious to add the Mills nine to their list and to stop the Aurora Stars on the following day. The Aurora Stars, which make their first appearance at the American Giants park in years, will send Volgert, formerly with the New York Giants and St. Louis Cardinals, to the Chicago Giants Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock.
In the white team's line-up are former college and league stars. Jacques Carmichael, the league leader, squirres there in Chicago, and Barton was with the Quigleyes. Ewen is a product of the Louisville American Association team, while Wilhil comes from the Western league. Roth, as we all know, used to wear the uniform of the Chicago White Sox. Flink comes from Lombard college in Galesburg.
The first team to claim the northern Illinois championship for the past three years, and last year had a record of 21 wins and 7 defeats. Wilhil has the last chance to see the Chicago entry in the Negro National league in action before the league season opens in the Windy City against Birmingham the first Saturday in May.

Bobby Nelson Whips Medosa; Loses Verdict
Bobby Nelson Whips Medosa; Loses Verdict
Bobby Nelson, Babe Baron's newly-discovered lightweight, made a nice showing at the White City Monday night and really won his fight of six rounds against Ralph Mendoza, the Mexican 125-pound scraper, but at the end of the contest the decision was rendered as a draw, which brought bores from the audience. Bobby Nelson colored thicker wins the crowd he hated some fighting and any time the decision which is against him is boared at the White City arena something is wrong. Bobby Nelson was knocked down twice in the second stanza, but after being nearly out came back and kept jabbing his left arm in the Mexican's face, drawing blood. From the third on it was easily Nelson's light. Bobby Nelson slid in four rounds. Jack McCarthy was beaten by Jack Zivle of Pittsburgh. Joe Patrice won from Johnny Hopinger and Paul Wrangle, got a draw with George Mavis. Jake McCarthy Eddie Kane of St. Louis. All were white except Mendoza and Nelson.

Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY
PRES. HUESTON MAKES APPEAL TO THE FANS
Gary, Ind. April 21—On the coming Saturday, April 28, the National Negro Baseball league begins its eighth season. For the players on the various teams of the league have been in the several training camps preparing for what is very certain to be the best season so far as a high average of playing talent is all. All of the team owners have spent money in large sums trying to obtain the best playing talent possible, and as a result, the weaker teams have been much strengthened and a hot contest sure to result, because of the balancing of the team play. The owners have all endeavored to do their best to give their respective cities a winning team, and it is my hope that they have succeeded. As president of the league I desire to state that only harmony exists between owners and players in every respect and this includes the executive officers as I assure the public that our schedule will be played out in its entirety.
I now desire to ask our public for its support in making our league successful. Assuring all the officers of the officer down, including owners and players, commit ourselves to the task of doing our best, W. C. JUESTON, President of Negro National League.

EASTERN LEAGUE

BY W. ROLLO WILSON
Philadelphia, April 24—The Eastern Colored league, last week announced dead and ready to be buried, to all accounts, alive and kicking.
The magnates reconsidered the unofficial action taken last week and are ready to go.
It has been decided by the league to allow its member clubs to schedule games with Hilldale and the Brooklyn Royal Giants if they care to do so.
The parks of the Phillies and of the Atlantic City Bacharach Giants are not yet ready for use and so only four clubs will swing into action on Sunday. The Bacharach Giants will meet the Lincoln Giants on the well known Protectorial oval in New York City, and the Cuban Stars will be the guests of the Baltimore Black Sox alliance.
Manager Pompez of the Cubans has signed Herren, former second baseman of the Boston Americans, to a contract with the Giants that Martin Dhigo, the great utility player in the game today, had signed with Cum Posey and Charlie Browne in the most recent days at the largest salary ever paid a Negro ball player.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER RACE OF Parade "and Everything to Enliven Cleveland Opener Against D
Parade "and Everything" to Enliven Cleveland's Opener Against Detroit
8y WILBUR M. COOPER
Cleveland, Ohio, April 24.—All Cleveland awaits the league opener with the Detroit Stars meeting our representatives, the Cleveland Tigers, in the first game of a five-game series at Luna stadium Saturday, April 28.
Advance information leads us to believe this opener will be the most spirted since the organizing of the Tate Stars eight years ago.
On Sunday the Cleveland Elks and Kickin' Roses will stand on hand to furnish the music while the drill teams from both organizations will cut a few capers in full uniform. Perhaps all of this excitement was arranged when it was made known that Hom. Finley Wilson, big chief of the Detroit team, is the home part owner of the Detroit team.
Cleveland's three councilmen, T. W. Fleming, Dr. E. J. Gregg and Clayburn George, will assist in the Bundy, exalted ruler of the Cuyahoga Eks, who, by the way, will toss the first ball to McNair, the lead-off man for the Stars, Sunday. Tigers informs us the boys are all set to go against the Stars since the signing of DeWitt, former Monarch first stocker, and the record of the first man, the second man, who has been laid up since the first practice session with a sprained back. Coach will use the following men in the first game: Dewitt, first base; Zumpher, second base; Stockard, short; Jeffries, third base; Woolridge, left field; Duff, center field; Ketty Johnson, right field, and the first man, the second man, who has hurled his southpaw slants up to Soup Barnes, clever catcher of many local campaigns. Nothing Ball dider, another southpaw will take over to shape up the opening round into shape for the opener.
Manager DeMoss will present a strong line-up for the Stars in Hile, DeMoss, Harding and Hooks Johnsell, a sacker for the old Tate Stars, all infielders. McNair, former Kansas City gardener, will don a Star uniform to cavort in the outfield along with Stearns and Jackson. McNair will pitching and Radcliffe catching. This Curry chap is none other than Rube, the former American Giant sensation. DeMoss also has Shaw, southpaw, Marshall and Mitchell, all veterans. Marshall was with Kansas City last year.
Clark Eases Out 5-4 Over Alabama State
Clark Eases Out 5-4 Over Alabama State
Atlanta, Ga., April 23.—The Clark ball tossers won a very well played and exciting game here this afternoon from the Alabama State team by a score of 5 to 4.
All of the Clark talles were registered in the fourth and fifth stanzas. Wadley and O'Neal singled. They then effected a double-steal and Cornelius unloaded the bases with a smashing double. Jordan was safe on an error at short and Mike Miller hit a terrific liner down the first base line for a home run. The Alabama coaches then changed pitchers and Collins took up the slab burden. He proved a puzzle to the Clark batters, as they failed to get a single hit in the five and one-third innings in which he worked.
Cornelius kept the three hits that he granted well scattered and the visitors were turned back in the ninth with two men left on the base paths. The score by innings:
R. H. E.
Alabama .....000 201 001—4 3 1

TALLADEGA IS BEATEN TWICE BY ATLANTA U
Atlanta, April 21.—In a thrilling doubleheader last Saturday, Atlanta university mowed down the swells in games that at several stages threatened the fans with palpitation of the heart. In the first game it was McCarthy who pitched to Poole for Talladega James and against Spruill and Thomas for Atlanta. In the second game it was Gillard who pitched to Poole for Talladega James and against Spruill and Thomas for the combination for Atlanta. In the first game Captain Jones led the scoring with three runs, followed with two by Wiggs for second and Willie for third. Stick work by landing three hits. The only home run was by Wiggs for Atlanta. For Talladega James and Poole scored two hits. The final score was Atlanta 8, Talladega 1. In the second game Atlanta made nine hits and two errors. Talladega made five hits and three errors. Gillard pitched a fine game for Talladega, but Atlanta was a little too heavy with the runs and three errors. Gillard lifted up to his name on the mound.
So far Atlanta university has taken four out of five games from the warehouse and Taladgea, and it looks like the really has a stem-winding team.

St. Louis, April 26—The St. Louis Stars, after more than three weeks of spring training, will play host to the Birmingham Black Barons in 'the Negro National league opening at St. Louis Saturday.
There has been one noticeable change in the Stars' inner works for the coming season. Creny, who has been the Stars' regular third base, has been the Stars' first base and J. Russell, who played second for the Stars the past two seasons, returns to his old position at third base, where he first made base passes. All of the Stars' hurriers are in top form, but likely J. Williams will draw the opening game assignment with the Hensley getting the call Sunday.
Dobo has shown rare form all through the spring workouts, but Sutliff has shown best as an account of a broken leg, gets the call at first base for the beginning of the league race, and has shown best as a catcher and seems to be in line for first string duty the coming season.
The Birmingham club is in good shape, having had several weeks of training at Fort Benning against the soldiers.

Marshall, Texas, April 20—Polling 10 hits in the first inning and scoring eight runs, they took the first of three hits they received park this afternoon. The first inning, in which every man on the Wilkinson team got a single, double or triple, the second that seated the fate of the fores. However, this inning, Davis, Blaishorn's star pitcher, tightened up and was able to finish the game. The crowd was out to see the lift, for great local interest, is shown in Wiley-Blaishorn games, and the weather was fine. Smith pitched the greatest game in the history of the club. Of the four men struck out during the fray, he whiffed three. The Mart hurler also scattered the eight hits in the first inning. His management was done by Blaishorn's Smith fielded almost faultlessly, assisting perfectly six times. Wiley scored her other two runs in the first inning, the only allowed Stackleopard, to get.

BOXERS ABLE TO SMILE AS DEFEAT COMES
(For The Chicago Defender)
Los Angeles, Cal.-The ability to bring humor out of tragedy and to be able to find happiness all races crave, is the characteristic of our Rise.
The serious business of facsimile does not rob the Colored fighter whatever his ability to take lights and is perhaps one of his greatest assets. This gives rise to many dressing upings in the ring and dressing rounds.
Not Tonight
Everybody in Los Angeles knows Ted Franklin, the couple of years ago one of the best middleweights on the coast who beat light heavies and heavies with ease. Frenchie, so-called because of his Compton one night and the going was awfully rough. "Gee, looks like I can't hurt that boy." Ted said at the end of each round. Finally the Compton one night. Finally in the third round, each time for a two or three count.
Walking out in the fourth, he smote Frenche mightily on the whiskers and Nown went Ted to the nine troll. He got up, stout, out and down he wished him an arm and smush on the button. He rolled over and rested his head on his chin as he watched the referee let his hand rise and fail. The referee had always liked Frenche and wanted en encourage him.
So the following conversation took place.
"One two," going to go up Frenche?" yes sah."
"Four, five, go to get up Frenche?"
"Yes, sir. M.: Referee."
"Six seven, going to get up?" "Yes Sah. "Eight, nine—say Frenche, going to get up." "No, it's not tonight." said the disgusted rebellion battler as he waited for the final 10.
Richard Wanted Langford and McVey
Dawn in Buenos Aires Sam Langford and Sam McVey had just finished of their many battles to a 15,000 peso house which only meant 7,800 United States' rocks. And ever won any beauty contest prizes and with their features battered and swollen from the scrap they had just finished, they were both a sight.
"Say Sam," says Langford, "you saw on the screen, 'Is yo speakin' to me or speakin' to you down in this Argentine country for kind o' little money."
"Why don't you try runnin' then, Mr. Langford. I'd rather pound the boards with my feet than pound your beetle with my feet, unnerving the tape from its sore mitts. Tex Rickard, who was in the dressing room taken' it all in, whispered to Paul Mullen near him. "Gee, but couldn't these two fellows put on a swell vaudeville comedy act."
That Word Got Him
An Irish fighter and a Colored fighter in order to escape a knockout had agreed that on one whispering "sufficient." the other would lessen. After several rounds the following conversation took place in a clench.
Irish Fighter — "Suff-a-a-cient!
Suff-a-a-a-client!"
Suff-a-a-a-client!

Memphis, Tenn. April 27.—The Kansas City Monarchs are ready for the league opener here at Lewis park against the Memphis Red Sox and when the Monarchs say they are ready they mean business.
Kansas City gave away enough ball players this winter to make an average team. Mitchell, Johnston, McNair, Hawkins and couple of others were handed to other league clubs. Whether they report is another question, although most of them are already in action except Hawkins.
With Hopwood, Taylor and DeWright in the outfield and Giles on first and a new pitcher by the manager army and a left hand at that, the Kansas City crew expects to wade right through the season and win the first half. Added to this staff of pitchers, the Kansas City Cooper the last named having spent the last few seasons with Detroit. The Monarchs' infield other than Giles is made up of Mothel at six and Monarchs' third, instead of being weaker by the loss of several of their former stars the Monarchs are materially strengthened. Monarchs will present a new inseparable financial difficulties in the past years have affected the playing of the team. This year with a strong stock company behind the team a much better showing is expected. Love at present will play second in the place of Wesley, who last heard of was in Chicago. Glass will be held until Sunday's fray. Between Hampshire and Bell of the Kansas City Monarchs.

STORY OF GENERAL WHO IS FORGOTTEN
PART 1—PAGE 10
STOR
WORLD FAILS
TO REMEMBER
GREAT LEADER
Toussaint Outshone All as Soldier
BY ARTHUR A. SCHOMBURG
Standing in the famous Louvre in Paris before the glass case which holds in an impressive brilliance Napoleon's jewels, I could not but admire the surpassing art of the silversmiths and lapidarists reflected by the precious stones that restlessly dance with fire and light.
There was his crown, the scepter, his sword, jewelled orders of knightly choice, piece pieces of this plebeian order, during his lifetime. The word Napoleon reminds me of his sword, what a wonderful service it did in his life. He was a man of devastated cities and nations destroyed, it civilized the masses and enhanced the destiny of a few. In command he commanded and a few crowded as a reward for their services to the emperor, the emperor and whose foot crushed to the ground noblemen from Portugal to the confines of Russia, met his match in the person of a black man who was a slave on a white platanum 1743. This unknown, undistinguished African rose by dint of self to the conditions born of a desire to curb the aspirations of the slave owners' rapacity for every black. Napoleon became an heir to the conditions that existed at the downfall of the monarchy. The Emperor and Marat had issued into the French people the spirit of the rights of man doctrines which had colonized the colonies. Victor Hugo carried them to Martinique and Ganduque.
BLACK TROOPS
EIGHT INVADERS
At Morne Fortune st. Linda, all the obstinate and stubborn light borne on mankind manifested to succeed an extent beyond the limits formed in regiments to counteract the defenders of the fort. Major General this stronghold as it was armed and defended by Negroes in whose minds the doctrine of the rights of man had successfully infused into his troops. Huge generals defended General Pelage, the Black Eagle, governor of Gaundaloupe was an officer meeting the British at Fort Enoes.
England, under Major General John Moore, had detailed one of its largest armada to the West Indies to crush the aspirations for liberty on the part of the Negroes of Haiti and elsewhere during 1796. Their first skirmish was in the lesser Antilles. The understanding between Napoleon and the British is shown in the letter Talleyrand at the behest of Napoleon forwarded to the British government. It was like all on trouble waters. With a desire to calm the fury of the English people he launched his activities to crush the leadership of Toussaint L'Overture. Dessaultes, Christophe and the other Haitian leaders who were endeavoring to improve the condition of life among the masses of slaves. The leadership of Toussaint, like a star of the first magnitude, outshined all others. Man for man, the English. Spaniards and French were no task for these untrifled blacks whose body and mind had received their training in the school of hard experience—the slave school—with the lash, the rack and the many instruments of torture.
Santo Domingo was the battle ground for the effective crushing of the Spanish in which the people of the world had been defeated. The revolt against the unsupportable taxation and military burden caused by the under Admiral Dístigue, the French had more than $60 Italian islands under the English of the English under Cornwallis.
NAPOLEON TURNS
EYES TO HAITI
With the ascendancy of Xenopelom and his greatness recognized, he was a great man of the first time as his crown jewel of Dominion; Hulton, it was a case of having a colonization at all hazards. Ever since he was a complete common reason, right or wrong, was to have been employed to bring about the impartiality of the people who have had never relinquished the hopes of restoring order and prosperity to Santo Domingo. In 1752 he was given the name of the first king of the country, and at least to cede the Spanish part of the island to France after 1756. He made the only firstهام in order to begin the task, restoring its complete authority over Santo Domingo and in the meantime the state of the country was to prepare the way. Let us examine the documentary material available on the 17th of the French government of the French government. The next year began the execution of his plan for restoring on a larger scale the state of the country. The good of war had England and France tiled together. In the meantime the roussains was maintaining the power of the king, which is the most farmed order in Europe and this time was ready to punish the brigands. On the eighth of the same month, the king was reformed, his support was to be further-in-law. General L. Lecters, with his staff, in command of the expedition of the French军队 in the year 1757, was that "slavery to be being established in all the French colonies (oct. 30, 1901 Corresp., vii. 307). The last division of the state was to destroy the new Algiers which had organized itself in the middle of America. As for the state, the country was not fully considered. The ever-revolution of the British government that "in the resolution I have taken to annulitate the government" has been a major event. The only consideration of the "impossible" by the議es has been a�ment of finance than all of the work of stilling all parts of the displeasure part of the sort of germ of displeasure and trouble; but I am aware that the state would be required by the men to build, during the years, a weak point, needing the support of peace and the parent country, which is the only place of plight, would be at all times a point.
...
Brilliant career of Toussaint L'Ouverture, Liberator of Haiti, smothered by prejudiced historians. The great Napoleon, who feared to meet him in open battle, given place in history high above this black general, who built his army from unlettered slaves and hurled it at the proudest and most aristocratic blood of Europe and won. He died April 27, 125 years ago.

Capt. Marin Pedro was appointed in command of the first infantry company formed in 1798 at isle d'Aix made up exclusively of black soldiers. Napoleon recognized the aptitude of the black men for military service, for many South Africans were incorporated in the capitulum ranks of General Kleber's brigade and in the corps of the 1st Infantry Corps. Heliopolis under the veterans of the armies of Italy, Egypt and Syria.
The war-like tendencies of the blacks had not been effaced by slavery when retaken by the English in 1754, where the French commissar, Vieillard, with an improvisation of some of their own, carefully composed of liberated slaves, which the English at bay for four years had conducted eventually to their giving up the island. The French second company of blacks be formed. During 1802 by another decree dated May 11, 1803, five companies of five companies were formed into a battalion of 500 men, called "Lies des Blacks," a black officers named Hercule, who had served with distinction in Italy and a black officers named Hercule, who increased to 1,000 men. At Gates the siege lasted for five months (1896), the English enlisted to imbue the blacks to desert and succeeded in circulating several proclamations amongst the officers of the Black corps" in which they showed up the turpidity of Na

"The prosperous situation of the republic after the peace of Lanceville Holena, "forshadowed the moment when England would be obliged to take the war to power to adopt a definite course about Sinto Domingo. Two such meditations of the first consult the first was to invest Gen. Toussaint military authority and the title of governor general of the colony to the army, to consolidate, to legalize the system of labor established by Toussaint, which had already been established by black farmers to pay rent to the French proprietors, to preserve to the mother country the common interest of whole colony.

Napoleon's later recollection of his hide recounting Toussaint and legalizing society and property. The constitution brought Paris by Col. Vincent, printed and put in execution, and France notified, was the culprit that Napoleon to destroy Toussaint. Not only the authority, but also the society and property were outraged. Of all ways of proclaiming his independence and renouncing the unjust saint that chosen the most outrague. From that moment further deliberation was imposed. The unjust saint was unhollous Africans, with whom it was impossible to establish any system. France required that they should be reducing to nothing. Thus the ruin Toussaint was fortunate that weight on the blacks were the effect of that insane step.

The most unintelligible of the sons—anticipating Sir Robert Peel 50 years, and taking his station by the side of Roger Williams, before any Englishman or American had won the right; and yet this is the record which the history of rival states makes up for this inspired black of St. Domingo.

I would call him Napoleon, but Napoleon made his way to empire over broken oaths and through a sea of blood. This man never broke his word.

salines, Christophe and Clairvaux were more exaggerated, more disaffected and still more opposed to the authority of the mother country, there was no room for deliberation. The first course was no longer practicable, and it was necessary to adopt the second and to make the sacrifice it exacted. Colonel Vincent arrived Oct. 14, 1851, with the official constitution that was presented for the approbation of the mother country. It provided that Toussaint was to be made governor for life, with the right to choose his successor. At St. Helena Napoleon thought this was the best plan to have pursued. After having read the constitution forwarded by the black liberator, Napoleon seven days previous to the arrival of Colonel Vincent had allotted regiments for service in Santo Domingo. Toussaint, by the constitution, had requested 2,000 men. Napoleon sent 15,000, and wrote Admiral Villarejo to leave Brest with 12 French and five Spanish line of battleships, carrying 6,000 or 7,000 troops.

TOUSSAINT GIVES THE ENGLISH HIS ULTIMATUM
How French Treachery Lured Toussaint to Death
One month later the frigate "Creole" was secretly dispatched from the Cap. Under cover of darkness she stood into Gonave Bay and let her anchor fall. Toussaint had been invited to the home of a French general named Brunet to discuss with him certain points relating to the disposal of troops. He was received with courtesy and shown to a private room overlooking the bay.
In a moment a squad of soldiers with drawn swords entered through his window. The suddenness of their appearance dazed him.
Then the realization swept over him that, lured by protections of friendship, he had been led into a trap. In spite of their vaunted "words of honor," the French had come to take him. With a saber point against his heart the old warforer relinquished his sword—the sword that had not left his side in ten years of triumphs. He was carried with all haste and secrecy by back roads down to Gonalves.
Toursaint was put abroad the "Creole" and it sailed to Cap Fran-cois. In the harbor he was transferred in a small boat to the warship "Hero." His wife and three sons, who also had been arrested, were put aboard with him. LeClerc hastily signed the "Hera's" smiling orders. She lifted her sails, caught the morning wind, and set her course for France. A few idlers, ignorant of her great cargo, for the news of Tour-saint's arrest had been carefully kept secret, watched from the waterside of Cai- francois.
Toussaint, "The Opener," stood on the decks, his salish cockade and hat adorned with a gold holder n tombbling arm. He saw the little of his beloved island siblings, Toussaint was ugly. He was small in stature, and slender with the frail features. And slender with the forehead was ridiculously high his teeth were prominent. His bulging jaw was redish in color in a raceway of five wrinkles. Tears coursed down his cheeks. He turned to a French officer who stood in a line of five wrinkles. "In taking me away from my country, monsieur," he said. "you have or in commerce. Whatever results the sending of the black generals to France may produce, it will be only the blacks who will continue their continued stay in Santo Domingo. * * From the moment the blacks shall be disarmed and the French will be disarmed, you will have done more for the commerce and civilization of Europe than one accomplishes in the most brilliant
GENERAL LECLERC
SENT TO CONQUER
General LeClerc landed at Carr Francais on Feb. 5, 1932. Christophe soon as the ships landed their troops the black leader burned the town, and the soldiers were forced to the mountains. After all kinds of war difficulties and the continual disappearance of the "origins" who were killed, LeClerc wrote home: "In the different combats I have had to fight I would have been wounded. I still have about 290 shots."
cut down the trunk of the tree of black liberty in San Domingo. That tree will bloom again, for its roots are deep and strong." He bowed and went below to his cabin.
On the arrival of the "Hero" in Brest, Toussaint was permitted a hurried parting with his wife and three sons. Then he was taken and imprisoned in the Temple in Paris. After a little time he was transferred to the Fort de Joux, near Pontarlier, in the Jura mountains.
He was never tried for any crime. He wrote many letters to Napoleon in which he besought at least the justice granted a common felon—if the savior of France's richest colony from her Spanish and English enemies did not, in their estimation, merit more. But Napoleon never answered, though several times he sent one of his aides to visit Toussaint in his dungeon to try to bully him into telling just where he had hidden a suppositous treasure of $40,000,000.
The aide found out nothing, for Toussaint would only shake his head dully and ask over and over again what had been done with his wife and children. He never learned.
Toussaint had never in his life been beyond the eternal warmth of the tropics, but he survived one winter in a stone dungeon in the Alps. Then, in the spring, on the night of Wednesday, the 27th of April, 1803, he died. No one had ever brought him news of what transpired in Saint Domingue. He went to sleep with a dream in his heart of crooning Negroes on the summer hillsides of an island far away. In the morning they found him curled up like a child on his pallet bed. The sweat of the walls had dripped down and puddled coldly on the floor. They had taken from him even the ragged remnants of the dress uniform of the governor-general of Saint Domingue.

men." We suppose Napoleon 'Bonaparte's aphorism to his brother-in-law is worth quoting: "In politics as in war the lost moment never returns." We know it never did return to the well-seasoned troops Napoleon thought would be "sufficient unto the day the evil thereof."
During January, 1781, Julien Rayon, a resident of Paris and a friend of Napoleon, had printed his pamphlet on the observations on the origin and history of white colonists against the people of Color, the blacks and the mixed bloots. The Society of Friends of the Colonies wanted for better results in the colonies but to no avail.

WRITER SAYS DEEDS CARVED ONLY IN SAND
No Monument Built in His Honor
BY WILLIAM A. LILLY
The search after the great is the dream of youth and the most serious occupation of manhood, says Emerson, the sage. The statement is so obviously true that no elaborate argument is needed in its support. It is a matter which each of us may verify from self-knowledge or from knowledge of others. Our relationship longest before the altars that they have raised themselves. But they choose as precluding duties only those who have in them similar attitudes to those like above the level plain of their surroundings. And we for after the worship our great, for after the world our great, the world offers nothing half so worthy, to colossal individualities, who there and there flure from the dum masses like meteors from a moonless sky, are of priceless value to these people, who little more than ants in this gigantic nut-hill which we call the earth.
BY COMPARISON
Do you ask for proof? Go demonstrate on your very self! Read the material carefully. Read the material carefully. See if you do not discover a measurable effort on your part to appropriate to or to identify yourself some qualities which make up the greatness of your hero. And it is this conscious or unconscious effort of the masses to lift themselves up to herebreaths of such vast benefit to the world's great musses, this benefit instinctively, and so continually keep up their search for the great.
In their search they delve deeply into the great zeal. They seize with acidity, even as the miner the precious metal. They offer another the great figures that perish in a measurable degree of the great one that has been discovered.
This fellow has found a Demosthenes or Cicero, this a Caesar or Napoleon, this a Descartes or Newton, and immediately each becomes measured to meet the individual identity discovered.
History is but a record of what the great have done and inspired others
The more direct the inspiration, the nearer the time, or place, or blood, the more intimate the him who contemplates, the more decided will be the effect produced. The more difficult he will be, the more should have interest and make the strongest appeal to every individual through whose veins courses the blood. None should be unfamiliar with his life-story. Nor need we fear comparison with the greatest and best of the people of the world, but that the historian has garnered from the richest treasures of the peoples of every time and every place, there is a richer collection of印章 with a clearer and surer light.
ONE DAY A SLAVE.
NEXT AMONG KINGS
He belongs unquestionably to Shakespeare's front rank of great writers, is a man who entered a most strikingly brilliant career after having studied for 45 years of sliver. He went through no long novitiate, there was no period allowed for prep, but he was a man of long enslaved and prostitute homeland quickened by the new freedom that followed the earthquake, he immediately answered: "here am I." One day we find a slave of man, the next a king among the enslaved and prostitute connected that we may well exclaim, behold the kingliest slave that ever trod the earth: "the soul stifling, mind murdering atmosphere of slavery, where all is stagnation, into the abyss, which blood and wealth were poured with a reckless abandon, equal in intensity even to that which was taking place in the country, France, the master mind immediately asserted its power. The result was the master sarcophile to liken this masterly slave at this moment, when the winds and waves of revolution instruction to the Galilean, who 1,500 years before had rebuilt and calmed wind and wave with his "Peace, be
From shaves, in every age and every land deemed the poorest material for a war, to the most important what an army it was. Before it the long trained troops of Spain and France, the French, their turn likewise the hitherto vicious legions with which the master genius of war, Napoleon, is at hand, have been oppressed and toppling the thrones of kingdoms.
WEALTH GREW OUT OF POVERTY
His greatness did not end here as has so often been the case with the French, but once manifested in unequal difficulties of sultatcraft. At his own expense, he had been poverty, destruction and hardship from sword to ployshare. Order industry and wealth sprout forth and have been poverty, destruction and hardship. No greater transformation has ever been presented, to the eyes of men and women, to the work of Toussaint in Haiti between the years of 1793 and 1800. The most orderly of states. This had been accomplished as result of a genius for war and statecraft, and as a result of his work in one individual. But two names suggest themselves as equally endowed. But Toussaint was more than a great soldier and great statesman. But Toussaint was also a range. See him restrain his fellow soldiers and save the lives of 1,000 whites, condemned in retaliation for (Continued on Page 11)

the butcheries of their countrymen on the blacks. Watch him as he prepares a constitution for his country and some freedom for his divided nation. America marvel when the great Lincoln made up his cabinet from men who were known to be either hostile or indifferent toward him. He strenuously sets out a plan to free men to do his work. But one requisite is asked of all—efficiency. Hear him demand of these men that there be the utmost freedom of trade and commerce before foes Peel and Richard Colden had taken up the question in England. Hear him again, a Catholic, and all powerful, having written when the laws both in Europe and America and in protest as well as Catholic countries were filled with discriminatory statutes. It is only when the towering ideals of his mind, and the holdiness of his convictions,
/
At times we find him displaying something of the acuteness of a Tallayrand or Mesterichin in penetration, and at times we think of the homely and effective wit of Lincoln when we see him quoting the messenger Latin he has learned for the occasion to some astonished office seekers to convince them by this display of learning of their lack of preparation for service of the state.
PLACE OF BIRTH
GREAT FACTOR
Of a genius so many sided, we are in saying that had he been born an American, an Englishman, a Frenchman, or German, the name of his mother would resound through all the world. There was much in his life, and in his death a peculiar similarity to that other giant individuality, the center of the universe. He was among the countries on the other side of the Atlantic, who is known to men as Napoleon, the child of destiny. Both were products of that maelstrom of history in the midst of increased resolutions. Both started their careers from the lowest round of the ladder. Both carved their way to rulership through the medium of the sword. Both exerted their power and staterace. They both died as exiles far from their native lands. But if the overthrow of Napoleon was probably a gain for France, the abduction of Toussaint was well mighty. The history of that unfortunate land might have been a far happier story had he, like Washington in America, been permitted to have guided the early footsteps of the land he had manned out for it.
The Corsican, exhibiting his genius over a longer period and vastly larger field, naturally looms larger, and is judged the more consummate both in its ability to design and its method and originality of design there is but small difference between the two. But in loftiness of conception, courageous adherence to ideals, and in greatness of soul, Touissert towers immeasurably above him.
TOUSSAINT GREATER THAN NAPOLEON
Compare the stoic firmness that sustained in his French prison the last days of the greatest black man the western world ever saw, with the man who came from rock-bound St. Helena, the final prison of the greatest white man the eastern world ever saw, and there can never be a doubt of the more superior Boussard, Davenport and Napoleon Boussard. If in your minds there is perhaps the question, why is it that we hear so little of the fame of Toussaint as compared to the many great men who have been mentioned, the reason seemingly inherent inability of the masses of men to detach and judge a individual apart from his surroundings of time and place and circumstances, give to Caesar the added luster that is reflected from Rome, to Washington that from America, to Napoleon that from France and Europe. There is small wonder then that the great urge beside that of the great Haitian.
As Negroes it is especially needful that we grasp things in their true proportions, and be not misled by comparison. It is especially needful that a new people, possessed of a shorter history and fewer historic characters, give to each the full measure of their use. We shall thus the more readily be impressed by such catchy phrases as "child race," "a thousand years behind the whites in civilization," and their like. And in no way can this veneer learn to point to the name of our own matchless Toussaint L'Ouverture. Let us look boldly and hopefully forward to that future day when the brightest name in all its pages may be that of the warrior, the statesman, the martyr, Toussaint L'Ouverture?

Toussaint L'Ouverture is recorded as anable in disposition as a slave, patience, kindness and benevolence, dispelling the misunderstanding of his conduct amid the general laxity of norals which precluded in the island gained for him many of those who had been oppressed him such absolute ascendance over his insurgent brethren. Bayon de Liberus taught him the elements of war and the art of defense, and island continued peaceful and tranquil under his command. General LeClerc had brought along a teacher, who were the soldiers of two sons they were the suave officers for, who were treacherously seized at night, hurried on board a ship of war and killed, and who were imprisoned in Castle Joux and then to Resonan, where he was plunged in a cold, wet subterranean prison and died April 1863, thus destroying the bravest man of the black race.

of tomorrow a bronze statue of Tousaint L'Ouverture to show our universal spirit of appraisal anywhere from New York to the banks of the American lakes. He brought no genealogical pedigreed background to boast, his forehears brought nothing from Afrien to Itafi but his star rose by sheer beauty of mind and at the opportune time was the leader of the faithful band to pull away from the thraldom of the unsupportable institution of slavery—a slavery made more intolerable by the fact that the sons of white colonists by Negro women enjoy all greater measure of tolerance. The great agitation in France for remedial legislation fell on deaf ears. The national assembly was committed to its great issues and like our congresses in America, could not see the justice of our pleu. When France awoke to fulfil its tardy recommendation against the evil of slavery, the Haitians had cut the Gordian knot and the battle call for independence had wafted itself everywhere, ending in the acknowledged recognition of a new star in the constellation of American republics.

My hair doesn't need shampooing more than once a month, now. My scalp feels better than it ever has felt.

Why not help yourself to Health?
There is nothing more important than health. Unless you possess robust health, strength and vigor you cannot enjoy the things which make life worthwhile. Health is the guide post on life's highway which marks the dividing line between happiness and misery—pleasure and suffering—hope and despair—success and failure.
If you are tired-out, run down, weakened and discouraged, the chances are you have been devoting all your energy to your daily duties and neglecting the one duty you owe to yourself and family—the preservation of your health and strength. Women who find themselves in that condition often need only the help which a good tonic can give them.

132-YEAR-OLD MAN FOUND ON LONELY ISLAND
Former Slave Young in Napoleonic Era
Limassol, Island of Cyprus. — The world was amazed recently to know that on this lonely island, owned by England, in the Mediterranean sea, lives a man who was born three years before George Washington died and who recalls the Napoleonic era in which he once lived. This person is Joseph, who has no surname, 132-year-old gardener of the Terra Sandia church, who is reputed as the oldest living human in the world. The king of England was greatly interested when told that this aged man daily worked without the support of a cune. Physicians were dispatched to examine Joseph. They reported that the gardener talks but little, has no nose, and is a dwarf and the state of his health is good. Organically he is said to be in sound health and has the prospect of living at least 10 years more. His eye sight is excellent, he is a dwarf, although he can hear when one speaks directly into his ear. The aged man has only three eyes and are now perfused so he is able to manipulate his food and has no digestive trouble.
It appears that at the beginning of the 19th century Joseph was seized as a child from Barfour, near Sudan, Africa, by slave traders, and was sold into Egypt, where a large slave trade was then conducted. He was carried by a pirate bout which at that time was selling in the Mediterranean, and which brought him from Egypt to Cyprus, where he was resold, and where he also secured his freedom like all other Africans.
The aged man who is said to have been born in 1788 still remembers a few outstanding incidents in his life. He recalls Napoleon, whose conquests, reign and downfall took place before he had reached his 21st birthday. When Edgar Allen Poe, the poet, writer of the famed poem, "The Raven," died in Baltimore at the age of 35, Joseph was "getting along in years," he would be 50 on his next birthday. When this gardener was born, virtually nothing had happened in the way of modern industrial development and the sciences.
The language of the island being Greek, Joseph knew no other tongue. In 1862 at the age of 57 years, he was baptized in the city of Cappadocia and gave him his name after Joseph in the Bible. The gardener also remembers Imbricare Pasha, the song of the ruler of Egypt, Mohammed Al, who was in charge of the army, and who was defeated by the combined naval forces of France, England and Russia at the battle of Navarro. He recalls the events of the siege by the Turks in 1821, when the Greeks first recruited against Turkey.
1927 Church Census Shows
Gain of 573,000 Members
New York—churches in the United States gained 573,000 members during 1927, a recent census of the Christian church in this country shows. In these churches was 48,554,105. The increase over 1926 was almost 100,000. The greatest gain was made by the members, adding a total number of Catholics in this country of 16,554,691. The Roman Catholic church claims 16,554,691 this number. The Methodist church claims 16,554,691 second in increase of membership of 150,910. The Lutheran church gained 67,878. The national Baptist church claims 67,878. The African Methodist Episcopal church, 741,622. A. M. E. Zion, 505,000, and the C. M. E. church, 355,000. These numbers are in contrast to the number ofisters at the start of 1928, almost fifteen hundred less than a year previous. This decrease was attributed to the number of churches groups, a number of churches this country was placed at 235,291, or 1,470 less than 1927.
Baptist Church Lists 3,400,000 Members
Nashville, Tennessee. — The first ordained Race preacher and foreign missionary of the Baptist denominational Lute, who was born in 1750, a slave in Virginia. He moved to Georgia, but later sifted for the West Indies in 1797, the first national missionary association in Ohio, formed in 1836. The last was the national Baptist convention, unincorporated, started in 1915. Baptists, totalling $167,371 members of both races in this country. In 1926 they were 11,640,444 Baptists in the United States, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the national Baptist convention in Monroeville, Liberia, in 1920. Rev. William W. Colley, D.D., who died in 1909, was the first missionary to the African field.
Philadelphia. Pa.—Every 12th person in this city is a member of the Race. In the past decade the Race has grown as fast as the white population. Four times as many members of the Race as white people live upon an acre of ground in this city. The Race is reaching 170,000 people is reaching an alarming condition. The white population upon one acre is only 28. The whites live in towering apartments, but the Race citizens live in most, if not all, small story dwelling.

The Week Just Points of View What's the Answer?
THE southern white man is the salt of the earth. He says to himself, and he, of all persons, should know. He takes every opportunity to inform me of the reasons why he is important. Read what one living in Chicago had to say recently in the Journal:
People who accuse the South of intolerance are grounded in either or American or American population. The present and recent "spasm" of intolerance in the South are, as you say, due largely to the Negro question. The South does not pose a significant population. There are few large bodies of foreign-born citizens there. The whites are largely descendants of the original white settlers. They can realize or understand the Negro question from the southern white man's viewpoint. Apart from the above exceptions, intolerance is no worse than tolerance everywhere is a matter of ignorance and misunderstanding. If every class of people would only try to see the other fellow's viewpoint, intolerance would soon fade away.
In regard to southern intolerance, people evidently forget that Maryland, one of the original 13 states, was the first one to establish religion in the United States. Jefferson, that great apostle of freedom, who, hailed from Virginia, was the leader of religious liberty in his day, Jefferson secured freedom in Virginia, and he and his colleague lished religious liberty in the United States Constitution. The first amendment to the Constitution, put there by Jefferson and his party, constituted the confederacy of ligious liberty and freedom in this country; not only that, but it has been taken as pattern in the framing of religious liberty laws in every civilized country on earth. The cream of the white race. Their leaders and representatives have always been fair and liberal. True, there are in the South, an elsewhere, fanatics, but they are only exceptions that prove the general rule.

Imagine a southerner asking the world to see the other fellow's point of view, and then asking the same people. There is no appropriate answer to this outburst. Anyone who knows the South knows that its people see the North, and that the North sees the so-called "Negro problem" treated in that all-inclusive fashion with no record shown for the feelings of the southern people. The southern people are the salt of the earth—and they certainly know

REPRESENTATIVE TINKHAM of Massachusetts has started something. Evidently tired of the way the South has been running the rest of the country, he has sent to Republican candidates for the presidency a questionnaire, which he expects to have answered: Do you favor enforcement of the mandatory provision contained in the 19th amendment of the Constitution that they believe is the definition of representation in the house of representatives and in the electoral college in proportion to the distranchisement which exists in certain states of the Union? More than this, the nullification of the political power of the political power to the distranchising states which count all citizens for purposes of representation and then disfranchise many of them. This impairs the political rights of every state and of every other vote in every election. All of its nakedness is whether there shall be constitutional government in the United States and enforcement of constitutional provisions against the government as it now exists shall be a legitimate and honest one.
Representative Tinkham's recent declaration that the enforcement of a federal statute recently cited by Fed. Judge James H. Wilkerson in chancery court in Chicago, the advance of the Illinois primary would go far toward preventing Nero dischursement in the South was brought to the attention of Attorney General Robert S. And after all, what will it accomplish? What does Representative Tinkham want it to accomplish? Does he expect it will result in the full enforcement of the 13th, 14th and 14th amendments, or is he interested in having the state have been so using smoke screens in congress to hide what is actually happening that you are naturally led to be wary of too much interest in the 15th amendment to know now, what is the answer?
All laws should be enforced. It should not require an agitation on behalf of the 15th amendment to force our legislators to see that the other amendments are enforced. But that would be the situation. Still something good may result from it. Who knows?
Mohammedan Religion
Spreads to Africa
Where we've spread a panoramic containing more than 4,000 Christian churches, north Africa today represents a severe of thousands of Mohammedan mosques, thronged with millions of devotees of Mohammed, whose ancestors once were of the Christian belief. Pastor Harvey Farmer, secretary and field superintendent here of the North Africa missions, declared in an address before the student body of the Moody Bible institute.
For many years a pioneer worker in tassils throughout Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Tripoli at the "top" of Africa, Pastor and Mrs. Farmer are now in the United States as representatives of their mission.
So great is the Mohammedan influence in the region, Pastor Farmer said, that many converts to Christianity are forced to refrain from public confession of the fact—for when a Moslem forsakes his religion he is doomed to death.

WRITER SAYS RACE LOSING VOICE BEAUTY
Anderson Warns of Sophisticated Arts
Salem, Va.—“There is a quality to Negro singing going out fast. Music is the most primitive of all the arts. The Negro, in coming into the most cultivated arts, the singing and creation of classic and semelassic music, and the other arts that are sophisticated, has a long trial ahead. In spite of his native voice quality, a thing also that will go with the educated Negro—the white man will beat him a thousand miles at all of the sophisticated arts,” recently stated Sherwood Anderson, noted writer of “Dark Laughter,” “Poor White,” and other popular books. In his smythe County New, which he has purchased to enable him to live the life of a small town newspaper publisher, after hearing the Hampton Institute quartet.
WHITE SINGERS CONSCIOUS
OF AUDIENCE
"It is something inherent in the Negro race. It comes to the surface in singing and in dancing. The champion quartet sang here last and the popular song singing, having the peculiar rhythm, a thing different than any other kind of music making, but I have heard infinitely better Negro singing. Who can doubt that the Negro race has something the white race has lost. I mean an unconscious giving of himself to the song by the singer. The average white lady singer, for example, who gets up before the door, to put on her clothes, of her physical beauty, if she has any, of the thousand things other than the song she is singing. Surely education is all right, but something in the white man's sense does something to the black and the brown man."
"I remember a hot night on the Mississippi at Baton Rouge. Negroes were carrying bags or evil smelling cigarettes, and I was singing a song called "The Last Sack." Another night, years ago, up the Mobile river. The bont tied on the river bank. Lonely forests all about. The song that time was a song of the Civil War. Babe, the Hanjo Babe. A queer medley of words, meaning nothing. I sat in a dark part of the boat with the pilot. It was hot. The song of the workers suddenly caught something. Negro came out of his native Africa.
PRIMITIVE SONGS RETAIN REAL QUALITY
"These were real black boys. Not a man could read or write. Suddenly the sons seemed a real part of the family. To describe their quality is impossible to me."
"Organizations like the Hampton Singsers are at their worst when they think they are the best. They are good, surely. But when you have heard Negro singing, as I have, in lonely places in the far South — where the Negroes are pententine forest or on the lower Mississippi —
"The Hampton Singsers still sing in the white man's world. To do some of the Negroes of the fields and rivers who have not tried yet to swing into the white man's world, I can soon forget the admittedly flamboyant Negroes. But I can never forget the Negro singing head from the lips of the so-called ignorant workers. In the future you have to lose all before you get back to your roots. The arts are religion in that."
Urge Whites to Improve Race's Living Conditions
New Orleans, La.—An appeal and caution was recently made to white business men against the economic housing and health conditions by Dr. W. C. Rucker (white), surgeon in charge of the U. S. Marine hospital. The physician after tracing the development of public health activities in America and explaining that it has been the community depends upon the health of its laboring classes, suggested that it would be wise for this city to take steps to improve the housing and conditions of the Race population.

Observations
The Trend of Current Thought and Discussion
The Hidden Hand
By BENJAMIN PRICE
The effect affirms the existence of an adequate cause. Sometimes it proves very difficult for the most able mind to point out the prince cause as reason for the action. This difficult situation the searcher after facts often forms judgments out of point; however, the cause exists and is left only to be found.
It appears that such is the situation when the cause is denying. What is the cause lynching and why does not the government take steps to have its practice discontinued? To say that there is no cause is an attempt at denying that which causes the action and without concealing a beginning.
Many theories have been advanced as the causes for lynching in this country. The writer feels that no cause is an attempt to deny the existence of these causes not the main cause if found, can ever justify the act. The justification of the cause does not rightfully and truthfully exist. It is founded in and on the principles of reason and justice. The act is wrong. Therefore the effect is wifely and criminally wrong.
I am of the opinion that slavery, prejudice and color do not give rise to the fundamental causes of lynch-
Why should a man's life be taken by mob violence because he happened to have been a slave? Why should he be taken by a mob? Why should a prey die hard mind? Why should a prey's life be taken because of his color? The reply falls for lack of sound and just reasons. None of these causes seem to justify the "why". Hence an amalgamation. It is to strike terror at the hearts and minds of the masculine portion of the Race, emanated by the angry fit of amalgamation in the mind of the perpetrator. The race have, "prejudice" and "color" have no need to then such as would cloud a mind to commit murder. The hand which is actuated by the true motive is hidden. The Race is impressed blindly as to the purpose. What is the greatest contention between the two races in this country today? The answer must be to prevent amalgamation. The fact is that the race gives rise to the greatest contention is the main point in the issue. Who, then, can deny that the mixing of the races is not the paramount question here, and even the world over, made even so, if at all, by American influence?
While lynching may not be used as a means to prevent amalgamation in other parts of the world, other methane gas attacks may cause amalgamation it. This net tends to prove rather than refute the assertion. In America it is being used as the sole and final weapon. The struggle seems to be one-sided. Our society is accustomed to evidence to the world. Difference in our racial color verify the evidence. Though color verifies the proof of the act, this same evidence tends to exert the guilty ones and raise to race the guilty ones and raise to race the guilty ones and raise to race of mutual agreement, culminating in this conclusion: That, since we are all human, it is possible that the Colored victim's vigilant eye on his acts, the same may accute the underdogs, the same may accute the underdogs in his manner of amalgamation. Brooding over this situation, our white brother grows nervous and bloodthirsty, blind from the recasting image of his own conduct. Without any real substance giving rise to such death for the image of his own aces for what he thinks exists.
It must be observed that these same accused by the masculine portion of the masculine and respect this saying. What else can be done how man that same thing shall be done to you. This fact, of course, does not help the perpetrator's mind, but it enables to throw light on a ghost in the dark. The effect that he runs mad with guns, torches and bloodhounds seeking the accused victim, when of a truth there is none. A man is a thief he thinks the other is a robber he thinks to think that his mind is misrepresenting the object to him. We cannot get away from it. Should we try to help the accused of others by our own self-healing? It seems strange that the masculine portion of our face is portrayed as a savage beast, and yet their offence as human beings desirable. The victim can be tempted and are tempted to be mixed and associated with, but the masculine portion of the face are degraded savages, though they be of those same accepted females. Once more the hidden hand presents itself. It is that hand which causes suffering and death to innocence, playing its notorious game shadowed.
The question may be raised that the female portion of our Race, too, to some extent, but real facts about such situations are never known. These cases always present a different aspect to the overall in question. Why is it that the police is a crime against justice and humanity. Why is it that the federal government does not discontinue the prairie crimes (may not be parity to some), the agents that make up the machinery of government are drafted from among those who persecute crimes (may not be parity to some), the motto and spirit of the nation. Hence silence gives reluctant consent to the greatest degree, with view of the resistance. Civil war is imminent in the event that the government should take firm and adequate steps, but it must be done. This phrase will eventually become the voice of the nation. The question of slavery, prejudice and racism must be encouraged the spills of troubles to the main cause is the hidden hand.
AERICANS KILL RULES
Many savage tribes practice the custom of putting their kings to death every so often and electing new ones. They do this to keep their rulers from growing old and losing the power to protect the tribe
RUMOR BUTLER PLANS LIMIT ON RACE YOUTH
Parent Enters Protest Against Move
Indianapolis, Ind.—A persistent rumor has been in circulation recently among educational circles in this city that Butler university, located in this city, with an enrollment of nine,152 students, has determined to limit students to 10 applicants. This is the only educational institution in the city where youths of the Race are able to obtain collegiate training. Lewis E. Frazier of 2002 Sugar Grove Ave. the father of a young girl attending this institution, established in 1850, has written vigorous letters of protest to Dr. Robert J. Aley, president, and Hilton U. Ailey, president, and other 25 letters to directors and other prominent men. "As a citizen of Indianapolis, with my daughter in your institution, I would far rather see Butler close her doors than to know that she based her success and other discrimination," Mr. Lewis stated.
NEED SCHOOL TO TEACH RACE AMITY
"I appeal to you with all the earnestness and force at my command to make every worthy race youth just as welcome as any white youth. I urge you to make it your fixed policy, and to make it your greatest weapon; that discrimination may not dominate an influence from a center of Christian activity. I pray you to create an atmosphere of interest among your graduates to carry their respective home communities the genuine christian method of adjusting interracial relations.
"The discrimination against Race youth is a serious problem with the general tendency to manifest aversion to their people: to augment rather than counteract antisemitism, and to hinder their full and best development. You are not a race you are committing a grievous wrong against their group. You are attempting to deprive many youths of the only opportunity they have of oblaining a higher education. As an institution you give your services to the white youths of our community.
"It is an outstanding American principle that race, creed and color are no justifications for discrimination. You have the authority to choose. You have no possible means of making your policy either right or just. It will be a gross injustice to the individual, if fully qualified, and an insult to 50,000 local members of the group. If a single student be required to take the university's obligates among your services. Society needs your influence, example and output as an active counteractant—not a stimulus—to the psychology of slavery. The university must recognize and the training of interracial unity and service."
Education Essential to Youth's Progress
Washington. — The American boy without education is barred from three-fourths of the classified industry, he is prevented by education from qualifying for less than 2 per cent of the jobs in the country. Fitzgerald, the federal bureau of education shows that every ten children who enter grammar school graduates from high school, and only one in 50 lifesaves. Of 1,000 children who enter the first grade, 627 pass to the second, 558 to the fifth, 311 to the eighth and 200 to the ninth. Fifty-nine of the high school graduates enter college, but only 20 graduate and seven continue postgraduate work. Earning power is the features show, polling out that untrained persons average from $400 to $1,200 a year; those with common college education, $80 to $1,500; high school, $550 to $2,450; and college, $1,400 to $3,000.
Washington. — In many ways the Race population of the city of New York occupy first rank, when compared with the rest of the country, there is a considerable Race population. This even applies to the number of deaths and funerals per week, which accounts for the large number of deaths and funerals in the current statistics show that there is an average of $4 deaths per week among the Race inhabitants of New York city, Chicago and Philadelphia. The average number of deaths in New Orleans has a weekly average of 62; St. Louis; 55; Washington; 53; Atlanta; Philadelphia; Memphis and Detroit; 25, and Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Richmond and Savannah; 21 each.
Church Strives to Battle Indifference of Youth
A college work committee of the Episcopal church recently met in this city to cope with the alarming leakage in church affiliation among college students. The committee claims that thousands of boys and girls who have attended college have returned from college indifferent and even hostile to the faith of their fathers. The religious situation in this country is becoming alarming when there is more than 100,000 of them in the United States, one-fourth of the total number, because people don't go to church any more.

On a clear day one may see from the harbor of Cap Hutien the citadel of La Ferrière etched against the clouds. Those who have glimpsed this evidence of the majesty and power of Christophe, the former king of northern Haiti, can well understand why Vandercook wrote "Black Majesty," for even the ruins of his palace, Sansoul, and La Ferrière seem pervaded with the overwhelming personality of the man. In "Black Majesty" the story is evoked so evocatively that Frank is well as the career of Henry Christophe is written with incomparable beauty and vividness, with economy of history. "Black Majesty" vivid cover, beautiful illustrations, sympathetic portrait of Christophe in graphic poetic prose. The book thrills and fascin
Christophe, slave, general, king, lacking military training, yet able to hold his own against the skilled leaders of Napoleon's troops; mutuored, with the General Lettre, "As to the loss of your esteem, general, I do not want it at the price you put upon it. If it must cause me to act contrary to my duty. The man dominates and infuriates." "Black Haiti"—"Black Majesty." There is similarity in more than name in these two books; the one by Blain Niles; the other by John Vandercooke; the same name in the same finished prose post; the same stress of the dramatic and emotional; the same contempt for the yellow people of Haiti. In "Black Haiti" a contempt and vellum and justly sagittic insults; in "Black Jesse," the black boy in rags, is nevertheless happy and gives his gift of laughter. Martel, the yellow boy, pretentiously seeks to cover his makings but falls even in that slight task; he must give not even the gift of laughter.
In "Black Majesty" the contempt is open and often repeated. In relating the horrible torture given to Oge and Shawnee, Benjamin the rights granted to freemen by the national assembly in France, the sentence, "The short, stout quadron upon the rack whose wrists 'mouth let forth such cries of the concluding phrase.' Oge and Chavannes died bravely." In telling of the rebellion against Desalines, who after his accession to the presidency, intended the statement, "The sneakiness yellow man had betrayed him," shows a lack of understanding of all the hopes and fears of the newly emancipated. Again, after the death of Desalines, there was need of forming a new government. It was only natural that the men who framed the constitution should embody in it the political theories applied in France and America. They had, too, a desire to prevent any further misuse of power as had been

If you are questions in this issue, if you have questions to ask pertaining to statute, well them in. Address communica- shown by Dessalines. Only one who was completely blind to the social and political upheavals of the latter part of the 18th century could write. "Then the constitution came and proved to be the future work of jealous yellow knights in a city to recognize their need for a master.
From a writer like Vandercook, who has shown ability to understand and appreciate habits and customs of different people, one hardly expects looked generalities as the following:
"In Peton's republic educated men flatly refused to turn their energies to anything more productive or less digressive, but they were peculiar mutuito tendency," or "Henry, who despised all vantages of color, had forbidden his aristocrats to grow beards. He knew what pride men liked, and that the blood in their veins took in whiskers. Finally, in discussing the rebellion which in turn rose against Christophe one feels that the author has fet his prejudice against yellow men distort has understanding of all the factors that led to the education, the powerful, could not forget was a full-blooded black. That was the rallying call—that the foundation on which was being reared in crowing discontent." There was also an inordinate sensitiveness to criticism which made these freemen desire their leaders to measure up to the standards exacted by the white dominating their fear, too, of this dominating Christophe, who ruthlessly put men to death.
Despite the bimed opinions, "Black Majesty" remains of the story of a man, superbly told.
"THE BRIDGE OF SAN LUIS REV"
"The Bridge of San Luis Rey" (Albert and Charles Boni), by Thornton Wilder, now in its 120th thousand editions, is being called a classic. It has been adopted in many college English courses as required reading. Hudson Strode, professor of English at the University of Albana writes to the publishers:
Since Ethan Frome and Jurgen, it seems to me that one more unmistakable masterpiece has been added to American literature in Thornton Wilder's "The Bridge of San Luis Rey." It is as perfect and beautiful a specimen of inspired workmanship as the most exquisite production of a Chinese master ivory carver, and beyond the thrill to be derived from the felicity of the details there is a mass effect of spiritual exaltation that one has encountered only twice in the fiction of the last decade, in "The Time of Man" and in "Black April." England has nothing to compare with the charm of the style of Mr. Wilder but that of the incomparable George Moore, while in America there are no others besides Stark Young and Mr. Cabell who at their best write as well as the new young author.
In my course in the novel at the University of Alabama I am "requiring" "The Bridge of San Luis Rey" as a classic.
Thornton Wilder, who is still teaching at Lawrenceville academy, has started work on his next novel, "Work on the Woman of Andros," and so far the title has divulged about it. He sails for Europe on July 9 where he will have more time to work on this new book which will be published by Albert and Charles Boni, probably next spring. Bridge which has now moved over eleven miles in England, is reported the best selling American book there.

ANNUAL TRIP MADE TO PAY HERO HOMAGE
Abolitionist Buried at Lake Placid in 1859
Philadelphia, Pa.—Once more the word has been passed down the line by Dr. J. Max Barber, president of the pilgrimage, and the pilgrims are getting ready for their sixth annual pilgrimage to Lake Placid and John Brown's grave. Of all the pilgrimages in the country, the romantic and idealistic. Until Dr. Barber started this yearly journey, John Brown was practically forgotten otherwise than in books. Not since he was buried, had the Race thought of honoring the martyr's birthday by making a pilgrimage to his final resting place. Much less had it been building a monument to his memory.
The first pilgrimage was in May, 1822. Since then each May 9 the pilgrims have spent the month has seen increasing rocking to the grave at Lake Placid. The John Brown Memorial association has chapters in several large cities of the country, and the face forgets to honor John Brown it shall be unworthy of the freedom for which he died. He calls the pilgrims the voice and index of emumulation. This year the memorial celebration will be widely attended. A very splendid program has been arranged. The pilgrims will leave this city, New York, Springfield, Mass., and other cities or the East and North for Lake Placid. They plan to converge at the Hotel Marshall in Saratoga Monday night. Leaving Saratoga Tuesday morning the afternoon of the same day. The citizens of Lake Placid on Tuesday will tender the pilgrims a banquet and reception in the community church which has become an annual affair.
JOHN HAYNES HOLMES TO GIVE ADDRESS
The leading citizens, including the mayor, will welcome the pilgrims as guests of their town. On the morning of May 9, the mayor will host its annual business session. At noon, C. Van Lier, the organist of the Lake Placid club, will give a special organ concert in honor of the guests. In the afternoon, mortal services will be held at the grave. The association wreath will be laid on the grave by a committee of the mayor, Rev. John Haynes Holmes of New York city. The evening of May 9 will be spent in the town hall, where the memorial will be delivered by James Burry and Lann, both of Schenectady, N. E. Music will be rendered by Mudge Paris, African harpist of Stamford, and Miss Julia Gilbert of Philadelphia.
The officers of the association are: Dr. J. Max Barber, president and chairman of program committee, Philadelphia; Dr. T. Spotus Burks, president and chairman of program committee; George C. Gordon, correspondent secretary, Springfield, Mass.; Dr. J. C. Turner, recording secretary, Chicago, Ill.; William C. Bascom, treasurer, Philadelphia; Thomas A.

Dunbar High School
Alumni Holds Reunion
Washington. — The Dunbair high school alumni, 1915-27, recently held a home-coming and reunion reception which crowded the educational institution with former students and visitors. A pupent showing "Dunbair Temple of Fame" and other interesting parts of the reunion program were presented by the alumni. This high school in Knoxville, Tennessee, was throughout the country for the chanish spirit of its graduates. The achievements of its alumni in the institutions of higher learning is known nation-wide. The Old St. high school was discontinued and the Dunbair high school opened in 1917 more than 2,000 graduates have passed through its doors. Of this number, 700, mostly entered the normal school; 220 were teachers in the system, and 100 in out-of-town schools. More than 700 entered Howard university, while 100 others have entered the best schools of the countryside, honors; the remaining 300 have entered various countryside and matrimony and live throughout the country.

SATURDAY, APRIL 28, 1928
TOUSSAINT L'OUVERTURE
It was on April 27, 125 years ago, that he died in prison, a broken-hearted man of 57 years. Even the uniform, a beautiful remnant of the days when he was at the height of his glory in the country he helped to make free, was stripped from him, and the cold, drah walls of the Joux prison in France, where he was thrown by those people who betrayed him, were his executioners; his only companion was the body servant allowed to him. In the night as he lay upon the hard stone couch where he had lain for a year, his spirit fled, and when his servant came to call him by early dawn, Toussaint L'Ouverture was gone.
Thus passed the "Opener"—the patriot of Haiti—the person who taught black people the first lesson of liberty. Toussaint, the son of a slave, who led sons of slaves against the finest trained armies of Europe, and vanquished them all! Toussaint, the mighty fighter, who trained a mighty army in secret, and led its members to battle for the right that was theirs! Toussaint, who still had so much faith in his fellow man that he walked into a trap they set for him, and died broken-hearted as a result of this faith!
And today, just a little more than a century after Toussaint's death, he has been forgotten by the people he sacrificed so much to help. Toussaint loved his people with a wild devotion. He hated just as wildly those who had made his younger days a continuous nightmare. When a boy he had vowed that he would lead his people out of the degradation into which dissolve, corrupt planters of Europe had thrown them in Santo Domingo and Haiti. The opportunity for him to carry out this promise presented itself and Toussaint lived true to his word. Yet, today, he is forgotten. Few of us know anything at all about him, and those who have learned have not cared to remember.
Today Haiti is in the hands of traitors and foreigners. American marines stalk up and down the streets spreading discontent and prejudice. Men and women, freed by Toussaint and made noble by Henry Christophe, again walk with downcast eyes. With averted faces and hang-dog expressions they pass the statue of Dessalines—ashamed to let him know that a free people can fall so low.
The conduct of the Americans in Haiti, the land of Toussaint, was described vividly by Clement Wood in the May Crisis: "Half of the American officers ranking from captain down are drunk more than half the time. Cocktail parties would begin about 11 in the morning and last until the next dawn—bars, the club, homes, joyrides ending in smashups, all in the picture. These officers had nothing else to do; the white devil finds work for idle thirsts and bodies to do."
This is just a small part of the description. What the French, Spanish and English tried to do in the time of Toussaint, Dessalines and Christophe, and failed, the Americans are now accomplishing with a thoroughness that has started the world. Prejudices, the American prejudices, jim crowism and bastardy have been implanted on the island since 1916 when Mr. Wilson's representatives landed there.
When Louis Borno, the present president of Haiti, visited this country last year, he was refused the salute that is usually accorded persons of his position. The officer responsible for the insult pleaded that it was an error and he was acquitted. Today, according to Mr. Wood, the American flag flies higher than the Haitian flag in Haiti, and Mr. Borno declares that when the marines leave, he will leave also.
Still Toussaint is forgotten. No wonder poor Henry Christophe cried plaintively to his white friends about his people when he ruled Haiti! No wonder he declared:
"My race is as old as yours. In Africa, they tell me, there are as many blacks as there are white men in Europe. In Saint Domingue, before we drove the French out, there were a hundred Negroes to every master. But we were your slaves. Except in Haiti, nowhere in the world have we resisted you. We have suffered, grown dull, and like cattle under a whip, we have obeyed. Why? because, miusse, we have no pride! And we have no pride because we have nothing to remember."
That was said at the time when the master's whip still cracked and men and women still were sold up and down the Mississippi in these United States. Then, said Christophe, we had nothing to remember. Today we have remembered nothing, though we have much to remember! Toussaint, the "Opener" lies buried somewhere. Even histories do not say where. Christophe's bones are supposed to rest in the courtyard of his citadel in Haiti. The rest of the patriots who fought with him are just names; just words that have no meaning. And yet we complain of our lot. What incentive is there for a man to achieve greatness through sacrifice if he is to be forgotten? Why serve a race that forgets so easily? Toussaint has been forgotten.

TRUTH WILL RISE
A recent editorial in the Defender concerning the imprisonment of a girl in Hampton, Va., for shoplifting has brought out facts that shed a different light on the incident. The young woman in the case, it now appears, is not serving a sentence in prison, but through the efforts of citizens of Hampton and the consideration of Judge Spratley, who presided over the case, is serving a suspended sentence. The Defender thanks Judge Spratley for
this, not in behalf of a person proved guilty of any offense against society, but because there are certain precedents in cases of this kind that justify consideration. Had the facts in the case been exactly those given the Defender representative there would be no further comment on the subject in this space. But where it is shown that facts have been misstated and where the truth is now known, certainly those interested are entitled to what praise their actions merit.
Judge Spratley and the citizens of Hampton are to be commended for their efforts to see that justice is done in that center of Virginia's intellectual development. They must show the way if it is to be shown, and they are deserving of full credit for their interest in this particular case. The Defender is glad that the truth has been made known.
WHAT PREJUDICED VOTING DOES
Two weeks ago Chicago went to the polls to nominate candidates for national, state and city offices. Running for congress was a man who had represented the First district in Illinois for a score of years. He had proved efficient and faithful, and had represented his district ably. But because he was white there were those who thought that a sufficient reason for retiring him. In keeping with this thought a man was selected to oppose him on the platform of a "Race man for congress." It is now history that the latter was defeated.
But this is not the significant thing about the election. On two separate tickets were men seeking places on the judicial bench of Chicago. Both had good chances of being nominated and excellent chances of being elected in the fall. There was precedent upon which to base the belief that they could be elected. But they were defeated, both running near the bottom of their tickets.
The reason for this is not hard to see. When 120,000 voters decide to oppose 200,000 other voters at the polls on the basis of color they naturally are spelling their own defeat. It never has been done, it never will be done. Had not the race issue been injected so forcefully into the congressional situation, it is reasonable to believe that its effects would not have been so pronounced in the municipal election.
And so the result of the "Race man for congress" platform is that Chicago lost two more judges. It should be a lesson to voters. Certainly it is a political principle that never fails. Where any group within a group desires something at the hands of the larger group, it must bargain for what it wants. Only in that way can it stand a chance of getting it.
LET'S STOP IT!
Segregated schools have gradually crept North. First they crossed the river from Kentucky into Ohio, then they slipped quietly from Missouri into Illinois and Indiana. Today they are the accepted thing in most of the border states and are still growing in number. The process is easy to explain. Parents want their daughters to be schoolteachers; even they themselves have desires along this line. The schools, having the majority of white pupils in northern communities where whites are in large majorities, naturally employ white teachers. In order to leap over this hurdle, petitions are presented to city fathers and boards of education requesting that separate schools be inaugurated. White people, of course, willingly acquiesce, and the evil starts.
Following closely upon the heels of segregated schools come Jim Crow theaters, hotel and restaurant restrictions, and even church draws the lines. An investigation will show that in almost all of these cases before there was separation of the schools, there were no color lines in other institutions; the idea of segregation, if it existed at all, had no important part in the community's programs. But as soon as it is shown that "Colored people want to be by themselves" the idea is carried out throughout the city systems. And the whites do not stop here, but push it into hospitals, graveyards, etc.
This is no theory, but an actual statement of fact, and we are responsible for it. It is high time that we stopped it. Since segregation in the North started within the Race, it will have to end through efforts and sacrifices of the Race. We must stop allowing our own personal wants to interfere with the progress of the entire group. Certainly we are old enough now to be able to see just a little farther than a job in a schoolroom. If we must make teachers of our daughters, let us send them where segregation is already the order of the day, and not start it where we can get along very well without it. The Race already has done a thousand years of harm through such tactics as this; it is high time we started out to correct the situation! Our own safety and progress demand it!
OTHER PAPERS SAY
THE NEGRO IN NEW YORK
It is often said that in New York there are more Irish than in Dublin and more Italian than in Rome. If the terms Irish and Italian apply to native stocks this statement is true. And now it appears that New York also contains more Negroes than either New Orleans or Baltimore—in fact, considerably more than both these cities together.
The New York Urban league estimates the total Colored population of the five boroughs at 259,800. For New Orleans it is approximately 100,000 and for Baltimore 109,000. Twenty years ago less than 2 per cent of the population of New York was Negro; today the proportion is 4 per cent.
The influx of Negroes into the industrial centers of the North was greatly stimulated by the war and by the subsequent restrictions on European immigration, which created something like a vacuum in the labor market. As in the case of immigration from abroad, the Colored folk first to move cityward have become a beckoning influence to the relatives and neighbors they left behind. The present tendency in this migration we may expect to continue so long as such wide discrepancies prevail between wages and social conditions in northern cities and the rural South.
Yet, while the Negro laborer who migrates to New York may have improved his condition he still suffers numerous handicaps. His industrial opportunities are restricted and his wages are sometimes lower than those paid to whites for doing the same grade of work. The Urban league declares that his plight "is still one of the tragedies of our social and economic system." There is need of cooperation on the part of the leaders of both races to see that he gets a better opportunity.

TRUE SYMPTOMS AND SENSATIONS OF HEART DISEASE
Because of the rapid increase of heart disease and the alarming death rate of heart disease among both men and women, wisdom to make our contribution to our many readers and to this day and future, to quintet and drive home to the people the great importance of carefully guarding and conserving the heart.
Three Causes of Heart Disease
We must know that there are three causes of heart disease: unhealthy understanding and casually prevented, but if neglected, one may suffer with a ruptured heart throughout life and die with heart disease before his allotted time.
1. Overwork or heart strain.
2. Infection.
3. Dermal nerve supply.
Overwork or heart strain — in when your heart is suffering from overwork or heart strain (and by the way, this overwork can be due to carrying excess baggage — getting too fat, catheter exercise), the first thing you will notice will be shortness of breath, and you will also notice that you will not be able to outcome dread or have discomfort. You may say your wind is short. This may be true or may not be culls for a careful examination by a doctor, the first signs of true organic heart disease is fatigue, shortness of breath, lack of endurance. Pain may or may not be true signs of disease, the old pain may be true, it may only be the piping (arteries), angina pectoris — there is one pain that is found in the heart apparently more prevalent in men than in women known as angina pectoris. It is a pain that battles description unrelenting, but there is a victim of this malady that is the most common often unable to give a full description.

PLEASE don't decide to live exclu-
PLEASE don't decide to live exclusively on a meat diet just because two Arctic explorers have done so for three weeks and have come through the experiment all right. One of them said at the end of the test that he never felt better in his life. The men talked interestingly about the good health and vigor of the Esquimau, who eat nothing but meat year in and year out. But the men also said that the New York warns the public against being too deeply impressed with the fortunate result of the all-meat diet made by these two men, and that it is injurious, that it is likely to cause an enlarged heart and other serious physical disorders. The human body needs a variegated diet, he claims, and that it should be as bad as one which consisted exclusively of meat. But some of us who have lived a year at a time without eating a bite of meat have公開 about that latter statement.
A SHORT time ago a woman who was really a heroine during the World War passed away. While Miss Mary Davies was working in an American hospital in France she saw soldiers from France and the United States dying of wounds and of gas and gangrene. The doctors were trying to find the causes of gas gangrene and they inoculated gunneu pigs, but they acquired very little information by the tests which were thus applied. Nobody dared to think of inoculating a human being with pure culture bacillus to watch the effect and get the desired facts. But, without taking anybody into her confidence, this heroic woman infected herself in the muscles of each thigh. The hospital surgeons who treated her were able, therefore, to get a pure case of gas gangrene from which they learned to develop a kind of treatment that saved thousands of lives.
Mary Davies displayed a courage and heroism which no soldier on the field of battle could possibly surpass. She risked her life to save others just as men who face machine guns do, but, in making a sacrifice for the sake of science, she subjected herself to the possibility of a life of pain and suffering which might have been far worse than death. And she cheerfully offered herself on the altar of science that she might save the lives of others. "Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friend."
Do you know the difference between a hobo, a tramp and a bum? Well, all those varieties of gentlemen have been holding an unemployment conference in their capital, as they have a perfect right to do, and some of us have been educated in the qualities of head, heart and hand peculiar to each of them. A hobo is a gentleman really looking for work and honestly trying to find it. A tramp is an individual who claims to be looking for a job, hoping he won't find one, but willing to make a stab at it, if it almost knocks him down. A bum is somebody who won't work, no matter how much he needs a job and how hard you try to make him earn his daily bread.
Now these gentlemen have concocted a nice little scheme whereby they can get a day from the government. They have it all nicely worked out, because since they do not work for a living, they can get the schemes by which they can exist happily without going to work like the common herd. The unemployed can get over by a millionaire hobo who is the editor of the Hobe News, Dr. J. Ends Howe by name. He scornfully rejoices in the bequest of several millions a year. If this gentleman and his friends succeed in persuading the government to pay all the unemployed men their wages, we can cost us about $15,000,000, for a year.
HOMELY PHILOSOPHY
A SEVENTH DAY
By GEORGIA DOUGLASS JOHNSON
Each life needs a seventh day—call it Sunday—a day of rest.
On this day the human machinery needs pause and rest; needs that the soul should be free to unfurl its wings and soar.
Without the handle of a seventh day, life loses much of its buoyancy and charm. Small we not hold, and keep inviolate the cathedral, hours of the seventh day.
If you are not moving forward, you are going backward
—you cannot stand still.—Robert S. Abbott.

SENSATIONS OF HEART DISEASE
of his agony. The best authorities say that angina pectoris is not a pain all the heart but is due to irritation of the heart at all. Angina pectoris is heart at all. It is claimed by the best authorities that the handling of the heart—the squeezing of the heart as the heart pumps blood to the pain, as the heart has no nerves sensation. We have what is known as an aching heart and people have been known to die of sorrow, grief and pain. We have out the doctor being able to find any physical indication of cardiac disease. But, when you have shortness of breath, and if it is persistent, and if you have another angina pectoris should become suspicious at once of organic heart disease. Suppose you have a continuous, rapid pulse—know that you have another angina pectoris, though it might be due to kotter; then, too histaria is often accompanied by very rapid pulse. But you should not run your pulse. You cannot walk in steps without a pounding in your chest, and when you cannot walk against the strong wind, that you have heart disease—that you have heart problems and needs your immediate attention.
Swelling of ankles. If your ankles are swollen in the evening or after exercise, you may have any dilated veins in your leg, you are pretty safe in believing that you have heart disease and that this veins will have indentation or pitching—this kind of swelling is called edema and is usually due to a lack of blood circulation or blood stagnation which may be due to foiling heart muscle to drive the blood stream from the heart with too much blood. If the swelling of legs and ankles is not due to dilation of veins or varicosis. All these signs indicate that the pump is not working properly and should be placed at rest for repair.
A Brief Survey of Current Happenings
cording to Senator Shippeat, there are $8,000,000 men out of work. The members of the unemployed are told to work with President Coolidge, but he was too busy to see them. It might take quite some time to get the president to agree. The scheme was economically the conference adjourned to meet here again April 31. In time to meet, the country has not heard the last of these gentlemen by any means.
THE next time you come to the national capital and go on a sightseeing tour there will be something new for you to see. The knights of England moved their office from Malta, Gaza to Washington, D.C. And here they will have their executive department on Massachusetts Ave, directly on the campus of a California organization, as everybody knows. From 50 to 60 men are involved in the shift, the imperial wizard states, but the national secretary is in Washington and printing plants will remain at Atlanta. A waiting world has also been informed by the chief kluxer that the order intends to buy and print materials in Washington so that the personnel may be adequately housed.
The trail of the serpent has now extended to England and Australia. Those two countries are now ripe for knighting of a Ku Klux Klan, it is said.
It seems hard to believe that an organization which is founded on principles that sit up stricter between people of different races and religion should flourish in a republic built upon equality and freedom. It seems still harder to believe that the leaders of such an organization would have people of different races and religion from the capital of the United States.
ALREADY two southern states have barred members of our Race from voting in the primaries. A man tried to vote in Richmond, Va., but the vote was not eligible to vote in the city Democratic primary." When the man took the matter to court the judge who presided in the case denied his petition and rendered a decision against him.
When the attorney general in Florida heard that 60 Race men were trying to register in Bensache he said that "Negroes should not be allowed to register and vote in Democratia primary elections." This distinguished gallant light went so far as to say that while the Florida law on the subject that the law gave Colored Americans the right to vote in the primary, the Florida law on the subject is broad and powerful enough to exclude them, and that the charge of perjury should be filed against those who applied for the oath. It is outrageous that in a people whose duty it is to uphold the laws of the land should be allowed to trample upon them with such impunity. And few, if any, even in the state which suffers the loss of citizenship rights are making any protests.
ONE does not like to think that 2,000,000 girls under 20 years of age are working for a living in the United States. And yes those are the figures which the director of the woman's bureau in the department of labor has recently given out. Many of those girls are of our Race, for instance, show that there are non wage earners among our women than can be found among the women of any other group in the United States. It is a good thing for young women to be included in the age, when that is necessary, but it is pathetic to see girls going out to work to earn their living when they should be in school and should be enjoying the freedom from care to which you are entitled. Earnest efforts should be made to induce those who employ young women to make their burdens as light as possible and to care for them in the best possible way.

MY DEAR, DON'T YOU KNOW BETTER THAN TO MISS AN ISSUE?
Dear Dewey R.: I have missed just one issue of the Defender since I wrote you months ago, and in this week's I notice that The Dreameress refers to your having told Rose-Marie that there is room in the column for many more.
Dear, dear, dear! Is it possible that you really welcomed me in and I missed knowing it? Please let me know! Please say it again! I've wanted to be in the column and feel that the members are rye friends for so long—and to have missed seeing your welcome is heart-rending! Truly, it is, and verily, I shall never miss another issue of W. G. W.

Rouse me just at dawning
Or at any time
When the bees are swarming
In the blest June time.
Loose me near a river

Where life and its giver
Gaily laugh and sing.

Musing wide, wide awake—
Let me pass the hours
Near some placid lake.

YOU SAY THIS TO SAY WHAT?
Dear Dewey R.: Just a brief missive to give you the low down on those blustered Lasers of yours. Recently there have been some agitating going on! I've hesitated to bring this scandal before the public because of the splendid reputation we have established. But being self-elected star reporter for the gallant Lasers of this organization, my benevolence forbids me to withhold anything, knowing that it's expurgation would be the origin of progress. (Hot dog! Did you heah 'em big words, Lasers?)
Now, Dewey, there have been a lotta racket 'bout me. Some one said at Miss Ma Linda Lue had dislocated my voice. Who was it? Speak now and be quiet from now on. Of course I'll admit I was going at an excessive rate of speed when I bumped into her. And I came out slightly damaged. But even if I am the "nut" I won't stand for no wise cracking from a gang of glaucerous Lasers. Naw sir, I won't. I wonder if she's related to The Lady Called Lout! I wonder. Well anyway, I've gotta 'muf of the Lue family. And I am now singing "Forgive Me."
But why should I worry! I've stopped the babies from crying and now the world is in peace.
Tennessee Snow! Well of all disappointments. I thought you'd melted!
Say, Lasers! How'd you like that pictureque description the Dancer is trying to hand us? Speak your opinion, I am wid you. Lawdy! boy that's the beginning of a perfect day isn't! With a few more encouragements like 'at we can push forward without any obstacles. But let's don't spoil her. We'll have her understand that dancing will be strictly prohibited in this club.
Slowing down for want of gas.
THE MISSOURI NUT.
TO DON JUAN
Some folks tell me that you're fickle.
That your love lasts but a day.
And some morning when I waken
I will find you've flown away.
They tell me that I'm wasting
All my faith and trust in you.
That you're playing, that you're laughing
And some day my acts I'll rue.
Yet somehow I can't believe it.
Can't believe that you're untrue—
Just can't feel that you're deceiving—
Just can't lose that faith in you.
If I'm wrong—well I'm mistaken
And I resign me to my fate
And I'll go down like the others
And will find myself too late.
A PERSONAL NOTE FROM R. I.
SWEETIE
Dear Dewey R.: Hello, how are you feeling and the Las gang? I am feeling thirty-eight and two smile. Here I am again taking up some of your space. So I heard that Hot Stuff wants to know who I am and would like to get better acquainted with me. So here is my description for you. Hot Stuff. A light (too bad) brown, dark brown eyes, brown wary bobbed hair and twenty years of age. Not bad to look at either. I also want to thank you very much for that wonderful book of poems and birthday card. I thought it was very sweet of you, Mr. Alexander Seymour, please page these Las members for me, namely: Hye Pocket. Howard Bunts. Give my regards to the following Lasers: Yankee Boy, Albert Perry, Danny Dreamer, Dakota Dick, White Mule, The Berrys.
"Home to Harlem" reads like a story by a schoolboy, declared David Cort in the May Vogue. Perhaps, but if we ever told a story like that when we were a schoolboy, we'd be whipped within an inch of our life, and then sent home from school. But boys do learn fast these days, especially Harlem boys.

WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY
HE KNOWS MORE ABOUT IT
THAN MOST OF US
Editor Chicago Defender: Those of us who read Dr. S. Parke Cadman's column in the Chicago Daily Journal of April 17 (a column of special interest and help to those persons who seek spiritual advice) will have noted the question asked by a reader of Moline, Ill.: "What are the chief contributions made by the Negro race in the social life of this country?" In his answer Dr. Cadman made special mention of the contributions to art, literature and music, naming our most eminent artists along that line.
Reference was made to the ministry of the Negro preacher to his people, of his great influence, and, unlike H. L. Mencken, who in his article, "The Dark American," stated that not many of the Colored clergy are men of sense, said the Colored minister deserves honorable mention.
In reading this article one is impressed with the fact that although the writer is a white man he is well informed as to the material progress of our group from 1865 to the present time. He also acknowledges the cultural diversity among us and praises our loyalty to friends, to country, and our faith in God.
THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER
Editor Chicago Defender: Your editorial based upon report of my speech before the city planning commission in the controversy over the mayor's mean injustice, which I am sure would not have been done had you known the facts. As a newspaper man you felt justified, I am sure in your reports. In our controversy the managing editors of all the papers are supporting our position, but the reporters represent a different type, and were therefore in sympathy with the city who felt that the location of our college near them would depreciate the value of their property. There was, also, a psychological element in their contention, all of which was due to the bitterest race prejudice.
Those who heard my speech before the planning commission, and among them were lawyers, doctors, teachers and business men, give us the message that they had ever known in the South against segregation. These suburban clubs of white people had formed themselves into a federation of clubs that were the backbone of the side of the city. This organized protest frightened the mayor and the city commission and silenced the political organization of our Race that had been the main campaign. This type of white people made it a special point to pack the courtroom with their women who cheered their speakers for the victory of the planning commission. White friends advised that no effort be made to pack the courtroom with an equal number of Colored people. Those who had read the call of the
I will now give you my statement on the points at issue. I said: I made no effort to pack this courtroom with hundreds of my own people, but I did not need to be reinforced by hand clamping. In building on South parkway we were within our rights. I did not say that white people were the best friends we had. With respect to that the property in question that the building of the college on this site did not limit white residential expansion; that it was a Colored settlement of 50 years stand-alone from the Colored people during the last 15 years, and it seems that it has been reserved for our use; that the location was ideal and that manure has carved out an athletic field for an athlete whose physical aspects were ideal. Question arose that the location of the college would cause congestion in the neighborhood. I said in reply that the discipline of a college would be such that the presence would hardly be noticed. It was argued that northern Negroes would run the school. I replied that this is not the discipline of a college controlled by the people of Tennessee, and that it was not in the plan for the northern people to do other than contribute and be represented by Colored man and woman who heard that speech said it was ideal and acclaimed by all to have been the best speech of the eight or ten man. I said Colored man and woman until the Commercial reporter, in sympathy with the protesters, twisted my statement. I guess you have some idea as to the difficulty of getting these reports correct. Had the property not be reinforced by hand clamping, we had not objected to a single statement made. The impression on the

AMERICA SQUELCHING HER BRAIN
Editor Chicago Defender: In commenting on statements made recently in L. Randolph of people Say, "I call, asserting that our own Race does not take advantage of his opportunities. I think perhaps Mr. Randolph is not aware of the opportunities disagued with the so-called present day opportunities. Why worry about an education and have no capital to people have realized the theories. Our people have realized the theories. Our people use iseless to pay high taxes and send their children to school to spend the rest of their lives in poverty, he conti- nues. If you really have prepared for a better position, you will get it. It all depends upon the ability of the in- formers. There is a cause of our loss from the overpopulation of foreigners in this country. The foreigners are given positions of preference over black skinned man regardless of ability."

FALSE PROPHETS
Editor Chicago Defender: Every Race, barbarian and civilized, depend on certain ones of the number who have the requisite qualifications with which requisite qualifications to their leaders. Among black folk, the preacher and schoolteacher have always been recognized as having a right to the leadership of the Race.
I think we should depend on the preachers for spiritual advice and guidance, and the majority of our preachers are not dependable. One of our ministers, on exchanging pulses on Race Relations day, told his white audience, "I don't want you to judge your children to go to school with ours. Our children are so dirty, ragged and bad that the Negroes and white audience was so disgusted that one of the white deacons immediately quoted: "There's so much good in the worst of us, and so much bad in the best of us." We need to say very little of the rest of us."
How can we have to maintain even the degree of tolerance in the future of our children, a dearth of preachers, I mean the truly endowed and divinely sent kind. But we have far too many of the infamous infamous, kotowing, pussy-footing kind. Many are the infamous iniquitous ideas sown by the fee grubbers, that are the infamous ideas of evils against our Race, which the whites have never thought of, are advanced to them by this kind of infamous pussy-footing. Sooner we are rid of them the lighter the burdens we'll have to bear.

TABOO ON CLOWNING
Editor Chicago Defender: The topic sentence of today is "What do you think of the legal?" The answer, right, but Fess Williams clowns two much: "The answer the other two times is "You are just equal, or did you see what Ashton Stevens said about the case" at Flo Mills' tie to Broadway." He said it was all right, "but the chorus girls weren't colorled enough, if you know what I mean." I think Fess is a good musician, a good director, has a good orchestra, but his impression that his style of stretching is something new like false. Ashton doesn't care for the show, it is merely medicinal. Garbage is a good comedian when there is no other comedian doesn't cause one to think--just bunk. I would suggest that the stage managers get out and book some new talent. It is here and they can get some new talent. And will somebody tell Fess that clowning is taboo in Chicago. JACK TALBERT.

O BOY RECEIVES PRAISE
FROM COL. CHARLES LIN
BY A. NEELY HALL
James Scott, the builder of this airplane, is the 13-year-old son of Dr. and Mrs. P. J. Scott, 3819 Wabush Acre, Chicago. He attends the Cater Practice school and is in the sixth grade. Both President Calrin Cool-White and Landbergh have written James letters on his splendid achievements.
A Unique Airplane Model
Some of you boys may be no more interested in and fascinated by railways, model making Gun James Scott, toy railroads don't appeal to James, wanted an engine large enough to ride, he both one. He would have none of the store autos. He built a dandy roadspar peshmobile. He atypical a rather-budgeted propelled plane, but it only whetted his ambition to own a model in which he could fly. Course, he hasn't resulted in notation. Or, and possibly never will, At least, in a homemade model. But he has progressed as far as building the large modelled monoplane shown in the
AIRCRAFT
photograph, and he is quite the prodigy and most envious lad in his neighborhood. You would be, too, with such a model, and I am certain that this article will prove to construct one in your back yard or a vacant lot. Pushed over the ground, the monoplane, with the wind turning its propeller, flicks all of the rebar and much of the thrill of the preliminary to an awkward edge.
The general dimensions of James' monoplane are given in the accompanying figures. It is given that for them, we stick to the design. Pictures of airplanes are easy to obtain; your public library has books with descriptions of different types, and you gather data by observing actual models.
In nine by holding six of them to the nose of the hood for the motor cylinder. The forward plane was made in two sections. A detail of one wing is shown in Fig. 2. To give it the proper emblem James used a 1x2 strip on edge for the center strip, a 1x12 on edge for the rear strip, and a 1x2 strip on edge for the rear strip, then nailed boards to the under edges and fastened to them, we stick to the design. Pictures of airplanes are easy to obtain; your public library has books with descriptions of different types, and you gather data by observing actual models.
After covering the wings with canvas, with them attached and bolted them to the fuselage, the
Figure 1 shows a side view of the model. Fig. 2 a front view, and Fig. 3 a longitudinal section of the body, or fuselage. James started the fuselage by making a frame like that in Fig. 4. He nailed a crosspiece at the point in the end to spread the side strips. Next,

end the rear end to the bottom frame, and right sides to the right. The top frame curves two ways. James thought it best to place the rods in the iron rods for the rear. He set the front ends of the rods in holes bored in the rear. He set the rods in holes bored in the center frame strips. He framed the cabin window with upright cross strings. He framed the cabin hatchway with cross strings.
To complete the fuselage framework, we
attach the brakes to the rear wheels, the
benting marked in Fig. 3, for the
engine.

vertical stabilizer, reinforced all corners of the framework with iron angles, and shaped a hood of galvanized iron on the forward end. Then he covered the framework with canvas. Building paper, unblanched muslin or poultry-feed bags might be substituted for canvas.
Figure 5 shows the rudder, made of a board. Two mails in its edge were bent, as shown, to torn pins, and a pair of screw eyes were driven into the stabilizer frame to hook the plus into. A cross piece with rope controls attached to its ends completed it.
The donation of a discarded airplane propeller was James good luck. But you can make one by cutting two board blades (Fig. 6) and fastening them in slots cut diagonally in the ends of a 224-hub (Fig. 7). Here a hole through the hub to fit over a threaded piece of iron pipe, and screw a cap to the threaded end of the pipe to hold the propeller on the shaft. Run the shaft through holes in a block in the end of the block, and in an upright set 24 inches back of the block.
James discovered a practical use for
9
tin ones by bolting six of them to the back of the plane. The forward plane was made in two sections. A detail of one wing is shown in Fig. 6, to avoid the proper camber. The plane is mounted on the forward plane, the center strip, a 1x12 on edge for the forward strip, and a 1x2 on edge for the center strip, and a 1x2 on edge for the center boards to the under edges and fastened to the upper edges over the upper edges. Oliges, on boards over the upper edges, wing, he set an allenor—a board hinged to the center strip of the frame, with two boards fastened to the lower edges, as shown, for a control. After fastening them together with iron straps, and bolted them to the fuselage, then braced them with diagonal struts. The elevator plane was built in one piece (Fig. 6), with two boards hinged to the upper edges, and fastened through the fuselage, bolted to the bottom frame, and covered with cotton.

NOT FORGOTTEN
Dear Rud: Just a few lines to let you know you are not forgotten. All the B. B. C. members have forsaken me, so I am going to bring my appeal to you.

Dear Bud: How are you? I hope you feel, as well as I do. I do have you glad to see my poem in print, and I'm now sending a drawing. I hope to see you hereforeer to resil in something at least every two weeks, and I hope to see some of them in the Defender Junior, the Defender Junior, the names of four want-to-be Billikens. Well, Bud, I really must stop. I hope you want to draw and drawing. I would really like some mail, as I am very lonely -Sin- in Waltham, Chicago II, 1254 W. 112th, p. Chicago IL.
WANT TO JOIN
Dear Bud; I want to join the Billiken club, and I am giving you an idea of what sort of a girl I am. I am, and I will be at school. Once given the chance I will be a 100 per cent Billiken.

AN INTERESTING GAME
Place four large nuts and four small nuts in a row, first four large ones, then four small ones, then the two that stand together, transfer them to some other position along the edge of the table, so that the large and small nuts range alternately. It may, of course, be done in any manner that can be offered or with other things that are at hand.
This is how it is to be done. Place nuts in a row, as mentioned above, and move them as one at a time so that they stand alternately, that is, first a large one, then a small one. Move two large nuts and one small nut at a time in the following manner.
1. Move two and three beyond eight.
2. Move five and six between one and two.
3. Move what are now six and seven in the gap.

Baseball's Origin
Baseball was known in various forms in the East for years before it received organized recognition, but although it is matter of dispute, Philadelphia's history of baseball back as 1834, and New York claims that its Washington club, organized in 1834, was the first exponent of the actual game. Baseball as a national game really came into existence in 1834 with the formation of a national Association of Baseball Players, including the clubs of New York and vicinity.
A Good Listener
Don't cheat yourself into thinking that you are a good listener because you sit silent when some one is talking and do not interrupt. That only the negative side of listening. The positive side is real attention, interest, responsiveness. One might as well talk to one of the very figures in the world who are windowless in some girls and boys. Anyone can sit still and be talked to, but not everybody knows how to be a good listener. Learn to be one.
ART

ings which bear his

PETER A.
The idea in a cartoonist's feature, but, contrary to popular belief, a cartoonist is not usually responsible for the artist's itself and is not rule against suggestion for a cartoon comes from one of the tools that has often revised in consultation with other members of the art world. If a cartoonist can suggest ideas he is doubly valuable. Ideas for cartoons are to be everywhere, although the unintended appliance is to pose an unexpected applicant to the work of a highly-paid professional; but he is quick to discern latent ability in a cartoonist and then to become a successful cartoonist.
Sketching from memory is a fascinating diversion that will till many a cartoonist have their paper and let your thoughts room, you will find your pencil making comics and cartoices, fanful creations.

The size and shape of the elements and the distance between them are the same as determining the characteristics of the tube than anything else. The diode types of types of tubes are dry cell and storage tube. The dry cell group consists of the 17-19 oxide coated filament, WD-11, WD-12, WD-13, WD-14, WD-15, WD-16, WD-17, WD-18, WD-19, UX15, which takes only as ample of current. The 19 tube is built while it has not the high amplification of the larger tubes. is a wonderful detector good audio amplifier.

BOOK LOVER'S
CORNER
TREASURE ISLAND
The story takes place on an island, uninhabited and desolate. Jim Hawkins, Lord Livesey, Squire Trelawny, are the chief characters who while get to search for a hidden treasure meet with pirates who had applied as hands on their ship. Jim Hawkins, a young boy, is the one who receives all the praise for in need of help he finds it. He uncovers the plot of the pirates and restores the ship to his friends. He meets with thrilling adventure while doing so and learns much in his young life. In some places you are held in suspense wondering what will happen next. The story is full of adventures, fortuitous, thrilling experiences, blood-thirsty fights and strange occurrences.
I like this book because it relates the strange adventures that befell young Jim. Also I like the place in the story that tells of the pirates who heeded no dangers when they knew gold was at hand.
Robert Louis Stevenson in this story brings us closer to the great author whose boyhood was spent in sickness and misery, with his wonderful imagination as his best companion.
SHORT STURIES
Even Cairo and Naples cannot compare with Peking in the number and persistence of the professional beggars who swarm upon the streets and aney strangers with their supplications. In Peking the casual tourist will do well to buy "small dime" coppers before he goes out—that means twenty-eight coppers—and to distribute a copper here and a copper there. It purchases immunity from annoyance.
The permanent resident obtains immunity only by being as "hard-hearted" as the Chinese themselves—and never giving. If one lives in Peking for a time and maintains a "rickshao boy and several servants, one's doorway will not be bothered, for the magical words "ta boo gay"—"He nothing gives"—spread rapidly. Recently the doorways of the foreign hotels were besieged by swarms of ragged little girls of S or 10 years, each carrying a tiny, walline, naked infant, supposedly their starving little sisters. As a matter of fact, these little begging girls are all hired, as are also the infants by fat, sleek men who control this beggar ring and prey upon ignorant foreigners.

Health Talk
By DR. EDDIE LEWIS
We all cannot have teeth like pearls, but we all can have clean, sound teeth.
Visit your dentist at least twice a year. He will fill any growing cavities in your teeth and help you to keep your teeth in good condition.
Brush your teeth for three minutes after each meal and before retiring. Brush up and down or with a circular motion, not across.
Keep your tooth brush clean. Buy a new one frequently.
Massage the gums gently with the finger to increase the circulation. If your gums are already you may have pyrhema. See your dentist.
Salt and water is an inexpensive and effective mouth wash. It will check bleeding.

ALPHA PHIS DECLARE WAR ON IGNORANCE
the Chicago chapters of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity, prepared elaborate plans for their ninth annual "Go-to-High School, Go-to-College" campaign to be held during the week of April 30 to May 6. This fraternity, the Greek Sister fraternity, which is being held throughout the United States. The purpose of this educational movement is to emphasize the great need for trained men and women. This fraternity points with pride to the far reaching results obtained during the nine years that the educational endeavor has been undertaken, the educational educational appeal so thoroughly and effectively that it has met with approval and commendation from a large number of America's outstanding leaders, the late President Warren G. Harding and of President Calvin Cooley.
Special Appeals to Parents
In fostering the campaign here, the 200 Alpha men located in this city will make special appeals to the parents in an effort to arouse them to stay in school and to stay in school to complete their high school courses and to go to college if at all possible. A corps of speakers will visit the primary and secondary schools themselves the great need for them to make the best use of their time in securing an education and adequate training for some definite purpose. The children of the city are being asked to preach educational sermons Sunday morning, May 6 to awaken mothers and fathers to go to school in the schooling of their children.
This campaign of Alpha Phi Alpha will end with a monster mass meeting to be held at 10 o'clock Sunday afternoon at the Michigan Avenue, Michigan Ave. at 53rd St. In past years the fraternity has brought to Chicago speakers of national prominence, including Dr. W. E. Bell, J. B. Cline and the once Darrow. The speaker for this year's meeting has not been announced. Dr. William H. Benson is chairman of the joint committees of the fraternity. Dr. John B. State director of the movement and Raymond Cannon of Minneapolis, Minn., is national director.

DETEEMER JUNIOR CHILDREN'S GREATEST WEEKLY
Tells About Writing in Old Greece
In writing the boy followed the master's dictation, using small tablets of water and a thick layer of over with wax, hardened by the admixture of tar and protected from rubbing with a slate. Two or three slates of this sort were strung together by a cord to form a loop. The master inscribed the letters with a sharp-pointed bronze graver, or "praphik," the top of which was used for erasing. As he grew more expert he was allowed the use of ink made of lamp oil and applied by a quill to a papyrus scroll.

counting were taught in the schools and
most Greeks liked to count on the finger-

How Oriental Children Are Made Taller
One of the curiosities of the world is the Lake bolham, lakes, in the summer, are covered with ice. In this stretch of water, apart from the fact that here and there bubbles are the rising in thick clusters to the surface. It is only during very cold winter when the ice is thawing this singular phenomenon. A visitor walking down to the lake at night would see the ice covered with what seems to be bonfires. A closer inspection reveals that the flames are shooting straight up from holes which have been made in the ice. These holes which appear going is natural water. A year later it is continually bulbing up through the water from the bottom of the lake. The gas is temporarily stored under the ice in immense bubbles or pockets. These pockets are 10, 29 or even more yards in extent.
It is only necessary to make a hole in the ice over one of the gas accumula-

Music
BY RUBY GOOPER
No definition of music has ever been found, and no one says nothing of explaining the art to the intuit. Emotionally it is based upon the feelings of joy, grief, joy and infinite varieties of motivation or contemplation. To make an art of writing is necessary and design is necessary. For its recording some form of writing is necessary, and the mechanical devices are required.
Music is the newest and youngest of the universal languages. It is particularly called "the universal language."
The organ originated in some form of the pipes. Two centuries before Christ it was used to supply the pipes with air. Pipes were invented about 1325, and in the century the reed pipe was invented.
Other wind instruments are usually used for their material as woodwind and brasswind.
The woodwind are subdivided into those sounded by a reed and those sounded by a flute. The latter are the flute and piece. It was to the invention of the system of the flute that the saxophone owes its modern facility and runge.
Of the instruments sounded by a reed and those sounded by a saxophone (made of brass but classified with the woodwinds), invented by Adolph Sax, who may be called the "Carolus Columbus of metallic instruments."
The double reed wood instruments sounded by a bass oboe or bassoon, the double bassoon and the sarrusphone, which are invented by Sarrus in 1853. It looks like bassoon and sounds like a trumpone.
The cornet is the high tenor of the instruments. The trumpet, horn and trumpone are equally well known. The brass tuba carry the lowest notes.

Our Youths Learn to
Speak Many Languages
The value of knowing how to speak and write several languages cannot be overestimated. The younger generation has awakened to this advantage and will teach their young immigrant children how to speak English, our boys and girls are also learning Italian, Polish, Jewish, German and other languages. This will soon become a fad and almost unconsciously a speaking knowledge that will be tarnished. This practice is prevalent in Chicago, and should be taken up all over the country.

Young worms turn spirals of swift and glistening pain.

Yet when the sun shines through the rafter
Arises and curls, the heart must break or stop
Quite still, for too much beauty can wound or slay.

Music and Drama
By CLEVELAND C. ALLEN
The Hampton Institute choir from Hampton, Va., and consisting of 100 volves, gave a concert at Carnegie Hall on Monday evening before a large and distinguished gathering of music lovers that gave the singers a most genuine ovation and reception. It was the first appearance of the Hampton choir here, and the young singers made a lasting impression on those who were fortunate enough to be present at the rehearsal. It would be hard to find a better assembled group of voices than what was evidenced in the Hampton choir. The choir was directed by Dr. Nathaniel Dett, head of the music department of Hampton, and one of the most distinguished race composers.
The work of the choir was admirable for the fine tonal shadings, diction, interpretation and execution of the singers. The voices blended in the union, and the choir appeared to distinct advantage as one that has been carefully trained for the minute details. The program offered covered a wide range of world music in which the composers of sacred memory were represented. The concert was a musical triumph and an artistic success.
The ninth annual concert of the University Music will take place on Thursday evening, May 2, at the Imperial auditorium.

Her appearance of greater interest to the University Students Fellowship will present Channeyne Northern tenor, the tenor of the joint recital at Moulin Zion A.M. 12, and the concert will be under the auspices of the City Federation of Women's College.

T
For 20 years, slender women have been telling others the easy, pleasant way to make a medicine they have made. One medicine discovered may have one men.

That right way is embodied in Marmolia prescription tablets. It is a substance employed in the body to regulate nutrition, fuel and energy, rather than into fat. There are no secrets about it.

People simply take four tablets daily until the weight comes down to normal levels. Consider what Marmolia has done for so many and so long. See what it has done in your own circle, because one means to you. Watch the new beauty that it brings, the new vitality and health. You owe that to yourself. Order it now—before you forget it. Don't longer be afraid of it. Watch what so many have found a corrective.

POISON BLOOD
H. II. Von Schlick, herb specialist and manufacturer of the famous Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea, tells people that almost all diseases are caused by impure, poisoned blood. When the stomach is sick you feel miserable, you are constipated and the poisons go into the blood. When the liver refuses to work the poisons go into the blood; when the kidneys are weak and out of order more poison goes into the blood and the result is that your body is sick all over. For many years I have been telling people sick with disease caused by poisoned blood, that my Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea gives relief to those who suffer from stomach, liver, kidney and blood troubles. A woman that suffers from sickness to try my Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea—millions of people will use no other medicine—they know that the roots, barks, leaves, herbs, plants and flowers are pure and help to make them well
Go to your drugsist today. Tell him you want Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea. He will be glad to supply you because he knows it is good medicine for the sick. It costs only a few cents. Doctors and drugsists everywhere recommend my Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea to be given to the kill child. Don't go down with "Flu," Grifpe or Pneumonia. Kill your cold with a. hot dose of Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea. Just ask your pharmacist for a. hot dose. I will send it by mail postmail, one large family box for $1.00, or by mail C. O.
