"THE CHICAGOWHIP" STILL FIVE CENTS READ EVERYWHERE BY EVERYBODY THAT'S ANYBODY TO NAME STREET FOR BAPTISTS END SUCCESSFUL FRED DOUGLAS MEET IN MEMPHIS ALL THE NEWS FROM EVERYWHERE Vol. 2.—No. 33 NOT SHOT IN LOVE AFFAIR AS REPORTED Officer is Shot Thru Mistaken Motive. Police Officer George Braxton, age 60, 2330 Dearborn St., was shot August 7th, by George Smith, at 2134 Federal St., the home of Mrs. Robert Topp. It is said that the shooting occurred when Officer Braxton attempted to effect an entrance to the room in which Mrs. Topp was entertaining Smith for the purpose of collecting $50.00 owed him by Mrs. Topp. Policeman Geo. Braxton, who was shot down by George Smith at 2134 Federal St. Officer Braxton's wounds are not said to be fatal. Policeman Geo. Braxton, who was shot down by George Smith at 2134 Federal St. Officer Braxton's wounds are not said to be fatal. Upon information obtained, Officer Braxton on various occasions had befriended the family of Mrs. Topp, which included the Mrs. Topp's mother and two brothers. Upon investigation it was learned that the story appearing in the daily papers in which it was intimated that intimate relationship existed between Mrs. Topp and the officer was absolutely without foundation. Mrs. Braxton, in an interview with a WHIP representative, made the following statement: "I am confident that my husband went to the Topp home on business purposes. He had known the family several years, and had on several occasions gotten Mrs. Topp's two brothers out of trouble. He told me before he left for the Topp home that when he returned he would bring with him some money which Mrs. Topp owed him and which he would collect while there." Shot in the Dark The shooting is said to have occurred after the officer had repeatedly knocked at the door of the room in which Mrs. Topp and Smith were. Repeated knocks from the officer brought warnings from Smith to leave the premises, which were not taken seriously by the officer, who continued to knock on the door. In the meantime Smith had hurriedly dressed, and snatchting his revolver, drew three knocks at the door, simultaneously with which he fired through the officer's breast with inerring aim. Making his escape for the time being he was later captured at 1828 Walnut St. Smith's Statement When Smith was arrested he stated to the arresting officers that he did not know whom he was shooting, but he only saw the uniform, and that he fired the shot fearing he was about to be arrested for some alleged offence. He said to he had with the police, and he is alleged to have served time before. Officer's Record Officer Braxton has been for many years a member of the Chicago police force, and his record for efficiency has on numerous occasions brought him the commendation of his superior officers. He was traveling from the Harrison St. Police Station, under the command of Captain Lavin. Last reports from Provident Hospital indicated that his recovery was only a matter of time. Birmingham, Ala., Aug. 11—A petition has been presented to the city commission by several leading citizens rediding on an unnamed street between 64th and 65th Sts. here, asking for an official designation of that thoroughfare. The thoroughfare mentioned has been recently improved with the addition of a Methodist church and other city improvements. It is said that the authorities are likely to designate this thoroughfare as Fred Douglas Boulevard. THE HOME OF THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN CHAMBLISS APPEAL TEST OF BLOOD TO BEING PERFECTED DECIDE RACE The Watchman's Bullet Probably Lodges in the Back of the American "Red", Who Hurled the Black Belt's Latest Bomb. CHAMBLISS APPEAL BEING PERFECTED The persecution of Officer Dorsey Chambliss and Emma Ross reached the high point of its vindicative intent when a mittimus issued last week, upon which both defenders were taken to Joliet. The courts, however, have not closed their doors against appeals for justice and one of the judges of the Supreme Court will hear an application for supersedes next week. If that writ is granted both defendants will probably be admitted to bail. Officer Chambliss was patient under persecution to the last day when it was found impossible to complete the long record and have it approved before the mittimus was issued. Mrs. Ross, who was compelled to share his luck, was strong in her belief that vindication would come. The attorneys working on the case say that the record now prepared shows an abundance of errors and that the Supreme Court will render a just judgment when the case is heard on review. SEARCH WITH GUNS FOR POLITE MAN Lexington, Ky., Aug. 11—Because Buford Monday, colored, age 28, tipped his hat to Mrs. Charles Sauers, white, of Valley View, Madison county, she gave the alarm that he had attempted to assault her. As a result, the entire community, including police officers and citizens, are searching for Monday with pitchforks, guns, clubs, mallets, and other engines of Southern warfare, bent upon lynching him on sight. Memphis, Tenn., Aug. 11—The 51st Annual Session of the Sunday School Convention ended in this city this week. The convention was held at Mt. Nebo Baptist Church, pastored by the Rev. A. H. Henderson. The introductory sermon at the convention was delivered by the Rev. L. Tyler. The report of the various branches of the association indicated that unusual efforts were being put forth for the success of the association. Race Hate Blast Fails Of Success RIOT STORY FAKED BY "EXAMINER" The scene of Chicago's latest "race hate" bombing, which resulted in more damage to the homes of the white neighbors than to the target for which the bomb was made. The stars show the only damage done, a few windows smashed. Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 10—The law firm of Norris & Lewis, Philadelphia's youngest lawyers, will be called upon to argue the most unique case ever presented to a tribunal for consideration and decision. Some of the questions involved are: Can the question of whether a child is white or colored be scientifically determined aside from the circumstances of hair and color? Is there any difference between the blood of a colored child and that of a white child? These are two of the questions which will affect Mrs. Thompson's right to the custody of her own child. In a previous trial in which specialists were called to testify, they contended that their blood tests proved conclusively the child to be white. The final decision is awaited with interest. DEMANDS LYNCHERS INDICTMENT Meridian, Miss., Aug. 11—Judge C. C. Miller, recently appointed by Gov. Russell, to succeed Judge Roland W. Heidelberg, upon assuming the bench demanded of the Grand Jury of Launderdale County that it was their duty to bring to speedy justice by criminal indictment the lynchers who murdered James Spencer, a colored postal clerk, who was charged with assault upon O. Parker, a white postal clerk, who was working on the same car. Judge Miller in referring to the reckless disregard for law by certain white men of the state of Mississippi asked the jury to exert every effort to bring the guilty parties to justice, and he would see that the law was vindicated. STABBED BY UNKNOWN MASHER Houston, Texas, Aug. 11—Caesar Spillar, 3426 McGowan Ave., was seriously cut and stabbed at his home in a fight with a man whose identity could not be learned. People living in the immediate vicinity allege that Spillar was shot and killed with attention upon the part of the assailant toward the wife of Spiller. To War On Buffet Flats At the instance of a number of reputable citizens of the Second Ward, a committee has been formed having as its purpose the minimizing and eradication, if possible, of the buffer flat evil in residential districts and to tame the gambling and liquor-selling resorts which are now so prominent in their operations in the business sections and thoroughfares of the South Side. The Mayor has promised the Committee to aid them in every possible way in their fight. ORDER RELEASE OF ALLEGED RIOTER St. Paul, Minn. Aug. 10—Edward Edmunds, formerly of Chicago, said to have been a participant in the race riot of that city was arrested here by Dectectives Black and Miller at 602 Rondo Street last week. The Department of Police of this city, after communicating with the Department of Police of Chicago, gave out a statement to the effect that Edmunds was not wanted in Chicago. He was therefore released from custody. CONFESSES MANIA FOR STEALING GEMS Washington, D. C., Aug. 11—William Henry Campbell, for some time a victim of a diseased mind, and having a peculiar weakness for flashy jewelry, confessed ten burglaries in and near Washington to the police. One of the rings alleged to have been stolen by Campbell was taken from his sweetheart. When arrested in his home, Campbell had thousands of dollars worth of jewelry spread upon his dining room table, and the police believe that Campbell stole the jewelry, not for its commercial value, but for the strange lure that brilliant stones held for him. COLORED REPUBLICANS SUCCESSEFUL IN MISSOURI St. Louis, Mo. Aug. 11—The result of Republican Primary Election in St. Louis and Missouri yesterday in which col red men, endorsed by the Citizens Liberty League, were successful candidates for Legislature and one colored man, also endorsed by the League, for Board of Alderman received 8,000 votes to 12,000 for the successful candidate, a white man, in a city wide vote, has made the League dominant factor in St. Louis, and Missouri politics with a permanent influence and standing that must be considered by all political leaders in the future. Hon. A. M. Hyde, choice of the Citizens Liberty League, is the nominee for Governor, Jno. Schmoil and Frank M. Slater, who were opposed by the League were defeated. Dr. J. R. A. Crossland of St. Joseph, Mo., the first colored man in the history of the State to be elected Delegate at Large to a Republican National Convention, was endorsed by the League and Rev. S. A. Mosely of St. Louis, the first colored man to be elected a District Delegate, was the choice of the League. In the Primary in St. Louis yesterday, W. M. Moore and Langston Harrison, colored men endorsed by the League, were successful candidates for the Legislature and Aaron W. Lloyd, a colored man also endorsed by the League, received 8,000 to 12,000 votes for his successful white opponent. LATEST BOMB DOES LITTLE DAMAGE LATEST BOMB DOES LITTLE DAMAGE Hoodlums' Bomb Does More Damage to White Than to Colored Homes. The American reds who have for several months been destroying property owned in wealthy residential districts of our people are still at it. The latest attempt occurred Sunday night at 12:30 A. M., at 440 E. 48th St. The building is owned by a Mrs. Brinkley who still resides in the South and occupied by Mr. and Mrs. J. Jackson, who moved into the premises on Tuesday last. Community Hires Watchman Several weeks ago a number of property owners, fearing the "red" propaganda, employed J. D. Hardiman, an ex-soldier and retired regular army sergeant, 435 E. 48th St., as watchman. Hardiman, who is a property owner in the same neighborhood, made the following statement: "I was patrolling the alley so as to cover both 48th St. and 48th Pl., when a Ford touring car began cruising along 48th Pl. My suspicions were aroused, and I advanced toward the car. Evidently the occupants saw me, for an object was hurled from the car, but in the excitement and hurry not enough force was given it to land it on the entrance to the house, or even on the lawn. It fell on the parkway between the pavement and the road. The car speed up and I fired several shots. I was a good shot in the army and I believe I hit somebody." Only Slight Damage Done The object hurled, which turned out to be a bomb, exploded without doing more damage than breaking out the windows in the houses along 48th Pl. More damage was done to the houses on the opposite side of the house occupied by whites than in the house for which the bomb was destined. Authorities Inactive The increased destruction in property is due to the inactivity of the law enforcement bodies in Cook county. It was no difficult task to convict William Bross Lloyd and his type of "reds" who has destroyed no property, but it seems to be beyond the jurisdiction of the Cook county prosecutor to ferret out and apprehend this particular brand of "reds," who are not only destroying property, but endangering lives. CAROLINA GOVERNORS AT DAGGER POINTS Raleigh, N. C., Aug. 11—At the instance W. S. Braswell, sheriff of Anson County, Gov. Bickett has issued a requisition on the governor of South Carolina demanding the surrender of three white men who kidnapped several colored men a few days ago and took them back to South Carolina. A requisition had been made for the colored men by the South Carolina authorities, but Gov. Bickett declared that the offenses were so trivial that he would not honor the requisitions. Thereupon, W. D. Mayfield, James Breeding, and Henry B. Sandifer, white, crossed the state line from South Carolina, and kidnapped the men alleged to be wanted. The action on the part of the South Carolina officials has caused a tense and bitter feeling between the two Carolinas. THE TRUTH WITHOUT FEAR ON E OF M ls Of S DBY "EX ERRAND MERCY Success EXAMINER" Bootlegging in the Boot Lexington, Ky., Aug. 12—Prohibition agents here recently raided The Tuskegee Shoe Shop on South Broad St., an institution operated by Robert H. McClasky, and found a number of pints and half pints of whiskey carefully concealed in a box of boots in the cellar. McClasky claims to have purchased the Old John Barleycorn before prohibition went into effect. PULLMAN PORTERS IN JEWELRY BUSINESS New York City, Aug. 10-Officers boarded the Cleveland train as it arrived in the city last evening and arrested two Pullman porters, Charles L. Frisby and Preston Taylor, who were alleged to have stolen the $1,000 ring of Mrs. Thomas Davies (white), while enroute from Cleveland to New York. It was claimed that the officers found the ring in Taylor's possession. They were both held. DESERTS SIX BABIES FOR COLORED MAN Minneapolis, Minn., Aug. 11—All Minneapolis is stirred over the latest "love scandal" to be unearthened here in which Anna Czernowski, a Polish scrubwoman at a restaurant at 7th St. and Hennepin Ave, deserted her husband and six children to elope with Harry McKenis, a colored porter at the same restaurant. The romance between the two was not discovered until Anna remained away from home for two nights in succession. It was then that Anna's 16 year old daughter remembered seeing her mother and the colored man in close conversation several times. The two were trailed to their "love nest," and the Polish woman exhibited the strange disregard for social conventions observed in many Europeans. McKenis was sent to jail, and Anna was sent back to her husband and brood. Anna says she still loves McKenis and will go to him as soon as he unfinishes his "ninety days." FOUND DEAD IN POOL OF BLOOD Chattanooga, Tenn., Aug. 11—Mystery surrounds the killing of Julius Jackson, a young man of this city, which took place in the Lincoln Theatre, corner of B and 9th Sts. Thursday night. No one was found who had the slightest information as to who Johnson's assailant was. He was seen to stagger from the entrance of the theatre and fall to the sidewalk, from where he was taken to a nearby drug store, and died before medical aid could be given him. Wife Attacks Husband's Affinity Another fight took place in the same vicinity when Mrs. Rosalind Gunn, formerly of Rome, Ga., wielded a carving knife with accuracy and precision against her husband's affinity, Miss Eva White. The fight occurred when Mrs. Gunn found Miss White in company with her husband and center of Georgia Ave and 9th St. she opened her knife and proceeded to use her knife with bloody effect. When seen at the county jail by a Whip correspondent, she broke down and wept profusely, saying that she loved her husband, but could not endure the wrecking of her home by Miss White. Miss White was literally carved into strips FIVE C BE CENTS BEST EDITORIALS EIGHT PAGES Wife Attacks Husband's Affinity PRICE FIVE CENTS DAILY PAPER INVENTS STORY DAILY PAPER INVENTS STORY W. R. Hearst's Herald-Examiner Manufactures Story of Chicago Heights Race Riot. The many rumors, put afloat by various dailies in the latter part of last week, indicating that race riots were emminent in Chicago Heights, were found to be as baseless as they were vicious in their attempted explanation of the cause. One afternoon paper played up in bold type, "Her Military in Readiness, Fearing Desperate Wish Between Americans and Italians." Upon investigation by a special representative from the Whip office, this statement was found to be not only false, but seemingly born of an imaginary mind, having as its object the hope of stirring up race hatred. As a matter of fact, the representatives assigned to investigate, found Chicago Heights as peaceful and contented as any other community. The Chief of Police, Thomas Stone, when asked about the call for troops characterized the statement as not only being false in its entirety, but a wild dream which had its inception in the brain of news monsters. No Cause for Rumors "It is true" says the Chief, "that there is a certain amount of industrial and economic discontent in this city and the same is true in nearly every, if not every other community and they sometimes result in street scraps, but no one is justified in playing these things up from a newspaper point of view and giving them the prominence of race riots." It was clearly indicated by the chief that the commercialized press in the manner in which they handled their news stories more often inspired mob violence than anything else. Taking precautions, Sheriff Peters of Cook County, placed an extra force of deputies at Chicago Heights in order to meet any situation that might arise as a result of the vicious stories printed by some of the Chicago dailies. The better class of people of Chicago Heights do not hesitate to criticise the attempt on the part of certain papers to injure the good name of the county and state by making slanderous statements in their stories in order to make their news commodities salable. (Continued on page 4, Col. 5) SHERIFF GIVES JAIL KEYS TO MOB Center, Texas, Aug. 11—Lige Daniels, accused of having murdered a white woman, was taken from the county jail by a mob of "representative citizens" and lynched in the courthouse yard, here last week. The lynching followed the usual statement given out by the officers that they had obtained a full confession of guilt from the defendant. The keys to the steel cage in which Daniels was held are said to have been turned over to leaders of the lynching party by the sheriff. Soldiers Said To Be Among Lynchers Capt. W. A. Bridges, commanding officer of L Troop 7 Cavalry, received instructions from the governor at Austin to prevent the lynching. It is alleged, however, that the captain was unable to mobilize his troop because most of them were participants in the lynching.

His name "Jimmie," his omission of mention of the race problem in his speech of acceptance, his sophomoric treatment of the league of nations, and his ignorance of economic principles, all suggest that his nickname "Jimmie" rightly labels him as boyish, and we can expect no better from him. IN THE POLITICAL BOILER By A. N. FIELDS The people of the State of Illinois in county and city, are being called upon to consider and determine which of the two factions of the Republican party they will support in the September primaries. Fortunate for both factions each have, and are now in control of certain departments of the city and state governments and as such, their public records have been available for determination and decision. The leading men of each political faction have at times controlled the destiny of the political interest of the state and city. This being a fact the voters have had ample opportunity for studying their conduct as public officials. Our Position Important In the factual struggle now going from the notion of citizenization in the for political supremacy, our group will play an important part in determining in common with other race groups, the final results. It must be admitted in the very offset that we as a race occupy a peculiar place in American body politics, although in a free country, we are not free as other citizens, yet we are forced by circumstances to work out our destinies at the disadvantage of being in competition with free men. Hence, by being placed in this position in American politics entirely different from other citizens, we are compelled at times to disavow some things, which might be beneficial to the country at large, in order to safeguard what few privileges we still enjoy under the present system of our political environment. Where Our Interest Lies In the present struggle for factional political leadership it is not difficult to decide upon which side of the struggle our support should be thrown. A careful observation of the public life, and especially their attitude toward our race group, of the men representing the two political factions, give us as a race but one alternative—and that is to support the men who have been vonounced for by the principles advocated by Mayor William Hale Thompson. The election of such men as Len Small, of Kankakee, to the governorship of this State, and Col. Frank L. Smith, of Dwight, as United States Senator, and their cohorts on the state and county ticket, will serve to remove from state and nation politics, men who have shown by their betrayal of public welfare in so many instances that their removal has become necessary in order to subserve the public good and restore the government from its perverted function to its representative capacity. Lives Among "Preferred Class" The man who has accumulated a great and ill-gotten fortune, largely at the expense of starvation wages paid to members of our race, should not be aided by us, in naming the men who shall succeed him in office. The atmosphere in which the present governor has lived has so far removed him from the common people that he is utterly incapable of appreciating their ailments or of arriving at the proper remedy that will improve their condition. The very fact that his life has been envisioned by a preferred class of American citizenry makes it impossible for him to understand and interpret the needs of "the man farthest down." Cohorts of Sinister Influences The conduct of the present state administration, in becoming the affinity of big business and utility co-operations, is evident to the people that little relief can be expected from the governor's leadership in the event of the election of his ticket. His close relationship with people and institutions, which have for years been working in alliance with political and business elements, which were destructive of the people's rights, give little to be hoped for in the event of the success of his "heir apparent" to the throne in the September primaries.

JACK JOHNSON QUITS BIG WHITE FOLKS John Arthur Johnson, commonly known in the parlance of State St., as "Lil Arthur," has at last seen the error of his ways, and sent out the Macedonian call to leading members of his own race to "come over and help him," and bring him out of the wilderness of trouble into which he has inveighed himself. Information has reached the office of the WHIP from reliable sources that Johnson has become disgusted with the inactivity of the "big white folks" promising him immunity on his return from exile, as a result of which he has sent out five letters to leading members of the race of this city asking that they interview Judge George A. Carpenter, with the object in view of arranging immediate bail. Says He's a Race Man In Johnson's appeal for help, he especially emphasizes the fact that he has always been a "race man," but does not indicate to what race he refers. It is rumored in sporting circles that the very fact that the exchamp is asking for help from the colored brethren is proof positive in itself that the "big white folks" have finally gotten all of Jack's money. Poor Johnson, he's a victim of too much "big white folks.

Two friends from the Jewish colony had interlocked and entwined their bodies so successfully that it was difficult to tell one from the other. According to a speedometer held in the hands of the floor-walker, they were shaking the shimmy at the terrific rate of 70 miles per hour. Just at that moment two policewomen intervened, and the dancers explained it to the judge next morning at the tune of $5.00 each. 'Twas a pretty expensive side-show after all. OUT IN THE "exclusive" neighborhoods during the last few days Nosey has heard many doors slamming, keys clinking and iron bars clanking. Investigation revealed the fact that since Nosey created such consternation in "society circles" by revealing the illicit love of a certain school teacher for her chum's husband, all the other great ladies have locked and barred their closet doors, swearing by the eternal Gods that all other skeletons will remain hidden from Nosey's inquisitive eyes and ears. SAUNTERING up 35th Street the other afternoon with the sun in his eyes as it dropped below the western horizon, Nosey was startled to see what he thought was one of Ruth St. Denis' dancers cross State Street, clothed in extremely scanty attire, but his astonishment was turned to disgust when he found it was only one of the "summertime" Browns who had gotten between him and the sun. EXCITEMENT THAT approached heart-failure seized Nosey late the other night while he was standing with his foot on the polished rail absorbing his nightly "three fingers" of booze, when two burly "minions of the law" walked in; but they only strolled up to the bar and ordered the "same," so Nosey's consternation was changed to amused surprise. YOU NIGHT-BIRDS who make the night hideous with your player piano and with "My Baby's Arms," and "When My Baby Smiles at Me," in that buffet flat on Calumet Avenue, will soon be in the "arms" of the law, and "smiling at the judge," if what Nosey heard a member of the vice squad say is true, Better let "My Baby" rest, girls, or they'll put him in a nice cradle at the 26th Street station.

Editor's Note—Uclec Eph, the traveller and wanderer, who several weeks ago left to attend the Democratic National Convention in San Francisco, arrived at the WHIP office Saturday afternoon after a perilous journey on foot from the Pacific Coast. He immediately inquired as to the conditions existing in the locality in which the brother lives, chiefly, and intimated that he contemplated accepting a position on the Committee of Fifteen. Uclec Eph said: "I find the old burg about in the same condition she was when I left, and at that, its a little better than what it is on the Pacific Coast. I notice, however, that the war is still on, that is to say, so far as the intoxicating drinks they sell in these cabarets and flats is concerned. What I really mean to say is that any time you take over three drinks of this stuff handed out to you by the lady bartender, your mind is filled with Bolshevistic tendencies. "I have dropped into a few of the 'ivory establishments' located along the stroll since I have been in town, and found out that the price of bones has gone up, in that they are taking a nickel now, going and coming. I inquired of one of the big bosses as to when that rule was put into operation. He informed me that it was for the Policemen's Benevolent Fund. I asked no further questions. Knowing this city as I do, I knew that the only difference between a Chicago policeman and Jesse James is that Jesse James had a horse, and the boys with the hickory still walk. "I see by the papers that Mayor Thompson has taken a wallop at Gov. Frank O. Lowden. The Mayor indicated that the Governor was in the same class as former Senator William Lorimer, in that the Governor attempted by the Missouri Purchase to buy his way to the Presidency. Lorimer succeeded; the Governor failed, and if the people keep their right minds, I point the prophetic finger to the failure also of the Governor's heir-apparent to the throne in the fall election.

BAPTISTS TO HOLD STATE CONVENTION Dallas, Texas, Aug. 11—Between five and six thousand members of the race are scheduled to attend the State Sunday School and Baptist Young People's Congress which will convene in this city on the 17th to the 25th of August inclusive. A rare musicale has been arranged for the occasion and a chorus of 150 voices. Papers have been prepared by the younger element touching upon the industry and economic relationship between the races. The Congress will be held at Munger Avenue Baptist Church. SHELTON BROOKS IN PACE & HANDY MOVE BIG NEW SHOW TO LARGER QUARTERS AT AVENUE Owing to the remarkable growth of South side theatre-goers will have the opportunity to see standard big time musical comedy by colored stars when Shelton Brooks, the famous composer-comedian, opens August 23 in "Canary Cottage," at the Avenue Brooks will be supported by forty artists, including the well-known Chicago favorites, Ollie Powers, Alberta Hunter and Evelyn Preer. Theatre-goers will anxiously await Evelyn Preer's debut on the legitimate stage, having become familiar with her only on the screen. The original score of "Canary Cottage," written by Oliver Morosco, will be done. To the music, written by Earl Carrol, will be added a series of new numbers written by Shelton Brooks, especially for this appearance. The supporting company will be the largest of its kind in America, and it is claimed the best selected aggregation of hand-picked beauties yet seen. It is promised that in 'beauty of scenery and costuming the show will equal any and surpass many Broadway productions. Every effect of the original production has been secured, and many additions have been made in the matter of new scenes, songs, etc. Shelton Brooks is said to be proud that he will have an opportunity to rival Eddie Cantor, this being the production in which the famous white "blackface" comedian made his first distinct hit. The orchestra has been augmented and a scenic wardrobe staff has been installed at the Avenue in order to speedily round into shape this new and advanced undertaking. It is to be hoped that theatre-goers will heartily support this innovation if it lives up to advance press notices. This sort of production will fill a long-felt need on the south side, because in the past, most so-called musical comedies have been little better than minstrel shows with male and female actors. LAUGHTER AND TEARS IN "HOUSE OF LIES" The Lafayette Players this week are offering the great family drama "The House of Lies," and played before a good house Monday night. This week's offering has a well-connected plot, the execution of which demands the best in any actor. While the theme of the play hardly touches anything in common with the clientele at the Avenue, and it might be suggested that in the future the management select attractions calculated more to touch the daily lives of Avenue theatre-goers, yet, it must be said that the play is full of interesting and dramatic moments. Briefly, "The House of Lies" is: A family of erstwhile wealthy aristocrats who have lost their all, with the exception of their proud spirit and have come to the last crumb. The family is composed of a hen-pecked husband, a proud and haughty mother who has lost none of her social ambitions, a shiftless son, who cannot forget that he was once a "gentleman," and the redeeming feature of the whole family, a sweet, unaffected daughter, who supports the whole herd on fifteen dollars per week. The girl loves a poor boy, but through loyalty to her family, marries a millionaire who puts the family "on its feet" again. The reckless extravagance of the bride's relatives almost bring on the financial ruin of the rich husband, however, and he is forced to call in his bride's old sweetheart, the poor boy, to straighten out his business. The "poor boy" straightens out the rest of the family, fearing to be dispossessed, attempts through insinuation to compromise the bride in the eyes of her husband, declaring that she and her old sweetheart are still lovers. Their insinuations carry weight when the bride is discovered kissing her old sweetheart. The tense moment comes when the bride is restrained from explaining this startling act to her husband in order to shield her worthless brother, who has been guilty of forging the millionaire's name to a check. A. B. DeComathiere is really the star of the week in his impersonation of the designing, parasitic uncle of the girl. Ida Anderson plays well as the wife of the millionaire. Alice Gorgas, as the ambitious mother of the girl, fits the role well. J. Lawrence Criner, as the poor boy is not as good as we have seen him in other offerings. Criner is fitted to play roles in which he always holds the whip hand. He does not fit so well in servile roles. Bionel Monagas, as the thoroughbred young millionaire, makes a fine attempt to stand in the much larger shoes of the gone, but not to be forgotten, Andrew Bishop. In another year or so, Monagas will have acquired the necessary seasoning. Harry Plater, as butler, must not be overlooked, neither should Susie Sutton, the vampire. Let us suggest to Miss Sutton, however, that some of the most accomplished vampires on the stage, or even in real life, attain their goal with a little less of the flambuoyant. Owing to the remarkable growth of the business of the Pace & Handy Music Company, during their two years of activity on Broadway, they were compelled to seek larger quarters and are now occupying the entire building at 232 W. 24th Street, which will be known hereafter as the Pace & Handy Building. The professional department has been greatly enlarged. New music rooms have been opened and additional pianos installed. The profession will receive in addition the customary uniform courtesy, the benefit of their greatly enlarged facilities. They will appreciate all of their friends calling to see them. Pace & Handy have a wonderful catalogue which can hardly be duplicated. While they specialize in Blues, being the originators and first publishers of this class of music, they also have some wonderful ballads, lullabies and comics, chief among which is "Pickaninny Rose," which is having a wide-spread sale; "Everything Is Going Up" and "Chasing the Blues." Performers who have been accustomed to going to 1545 Broadway to get the BLUES from PACE & HANDY will be surprised to know that they have been "LONG GONE" to their new headquarters, 232 W. 46th St. opposite the N. V. A. "LONG GONE" is now a by-word with the elevator boys in answer to inquiries about the BLUES publishers. "LONG GONE" is the title of a song written by W. C. Handy and Chris Smith and the melody is so pleasing that it is still ringing in the ears of the occupants of the Gaiety Theatre building. It has about a hundred verses that can be adapted to almost any locality or any situation. "LONG GONE" is the feature song of Jack Amick with Neil O'Brien's minstrels who are shortly to begin their annual tour. SYMPATHY, COURTESY AND FAIRNESS The undertaking firm of Crook & Jones, established at 3553 Cottage Grove avenue, Phone Douglas 4378, have astonished both their friends and heartiest admirers at the class and volume of business they have built up in the last few months. Speaking of their success, Mr. Cleveland Jones, who is a Chicago boy, tonished both their friends and heartiest admirers at the class and volume of business they have built up in the last few months. Speaking of their success, Mr. Cleveland Jones, who is a Chicago boy, said: "We are offering our services to the public, and we feel that if we are called upon in that hour of sadness which comes to all sooner or later, we can be of help, because we always use our motto: 'Sympathy, Courtesy, and Fairness.' We can be called to any part of the city at any time of the day on night, and will be prepared to render service immediately. PETER H. We have in operation now a public ambulance, the only one of which we know operated by colored undertakers anywhere in the City of Chicago. Our service is prompt and sanitary, and our prices moderate. The public is invited to inspect our parlors at 3553 Cottage Grove avenue, where either my partner, Mr. Charles Crook, or I will meet them in person."

Even in ancient times the influence of music on the nervous system was known. Nenocrates is said to have cured insane perplexity with the case of the unhappy Philip V of Spain, who was saved from insanity through the singing of the soprano, Carlo Farnellini, with interest in the injection or despair—those temporary impairments of the normal action of the brain which leave so much suffering in their wake, who interestingly nagged who, interestingly the murderer rage of a deceived lover, had a gay melody played and was rewarded immediately by the change in the young man from insane anger to a perplexity, who interestingly could realize that the music of his lyre could arouse Alexander to anger or soothe him when troubled. Knowing How to Play and Playing Music, Marianne was able to realize that knowing how to play and playing are two decidedly different things. One may have a thorough knowledge of music and yet be unable to play. A manner. Being unable to play correctly and in a way that will give real pleasure to an audience is a source of sorrow to many students. Music is also the cause of several causes for this state of affairs and the usual ones are carelessness of method, inadequate preparation and the study of music requiring a greater amount of technique than usual. To be able to play accurately and with a wide range of techniques, first mastering the elements of a good technique with slow practice and gradually by constant unerring is essential. A good rule to follow is to always practice twice very slowly to once at a moderate tempo and three times very much faster. This is the mind that slow practice is the only sure method of eventually attaining accuracy and proficiency. A Hint to Players It really takes courage to play when asked, but a gracious and ready assent lends great confidence and what a world of sympathetic understanding is at once created by one's audience. CHURCH JOINS WHIP IN FIGHT The churches of the South Side have joined the Chicago Whip in its war on rent profiteers. At a recent mass meeting at Olivet Baptist Church, the audience present voted unanimously to assist the Chicago Whip and all other agencies working to solve this problem. Fight Started by Whip Over three months ago the Whip started this fight when investigation revealed the fact that certain landlords had dispossessed families of wage-earners in order to house buffet-flats for the sole purpose of exacting higher rents. Land Company Formed In an interview with Dr. J. H. Branham, first assistant pastor of Olivet Church, it was learned that a corporation has already been formed for the purpose of buying and leasing buildings to be rented out at cost. Dr. Branham said that the charter had already been received from Springfield, and the company was ready to do business.

Smith, secretary of the Delaware Negro Civic League, he addressed enthousia audiences in Wilmington and visited the institutions for education and social work in the Delaware metropolis. The teachers' association at Baltimore endorsed the work of The Up-Reach Magazine and passed a resolution requiring the schools to introduce courses in Negro history and literature in the school program of studies. A National Council of Teachers of Negro History and Literature was organized and will meet with the parent organization next July in Oklahoma City. Teachers wishing to keep up with this new national movement in education among us should keep in touch with The Up-Rep Magazine. THE CHURCHES Union Baptist Notes We are glad to report that we have had another successful week of Church work. Services were good all day Sunday. We gave our pastor, Rev. A. Royal, who is still awaiting us. We had an excellent sermon Sunday morning by Rev. Washington, one of our licentiate ministers. At night we enjoyed a concert by Rev. Tilford, another one of our licentiate ministers. These are very promising young men and the Church is praying for their continued growth in the ministry. We enjoyed one of the last of the rare treats of the season. The Jubilee singers of the Sacrifice Club entertained with a jubilee concert. Our hearts were filled with the melodies which these most prominent gales of the West Side rendered. We were then carried to the heights of laughter by the readings from the works of Paul Laurel and the works of the Union's latest stars. The entire program was a credit to our stalwart president, Mr. J. T. Lewis. We are planning many excellent features for the remainder of the sea- CLIMAX KING OF INSTANT HAIR STRAIGHTENERS FOR MEN A World's Wonder Used and Recommended by the Best Barber Shops Gentlemen, do you want nice hair?

THE CHICAGO WHIP HEALTH HINTS. By J. Sylvander Trice, M. D. Doctors before him were mere subordinates and associates. Hippocrates accomplished all that a man of genius could do, his best descriptions of diseases are models of their kind from the past. He was a master of diseases were caused by the gods; he taught Coan physicians and in teaching in that famous medical school he introduced the inductive methods of considering maladies, according to one historian. It was his transference of knowledge to the calling allied to his keen insight and the common sense use of his mind and his special senses combined with his scientific fear of errors of judgment and observation that led him to the discovery of Medicine and the greatest of all physicians. Hippocrates described the fillons, hemoglobinuric and malaria fevers of Thessaly and Trace. His description of phthisis, epilepsy, fever, and malaria was based on modern textbook with but few corrections. The works attributed to Hippocrates are usually divided into four groups: his own writings, those falsely claimed to be his, the Hippocrates' contemporaries and followers. The Hippocrates' Oath is the oldest and most impressive writing on medical ethics and is in strict accord with the spirit evinced in everything from the history of the founding of Greek physicians which was like Skoda's rather to be able to predict the outcome of disease than to forsall or prevent it. Hippocrates is the author of the Hippocrates instituted for the first time a thorough going clinical examination of each case, including the facis, localized pains, pulse, temperature, excreta, sputum, etc. Shakespeare recognized the "Facies Hippocrates" as the wonderful graphical description of Fallstaff's death. Hippocrates as a surgeon was good also; he ordered the water for irrigation of the wounds, boiled the bands and nails as a cure for fever, and used the first one to describe healing of wounds by first and second intention. He was expert in trephining and paracentesis (trephining: operation in which a piece of bone is cut out to remove a tumor) and paracentesis removing fluid from the body cavity.)

Tribune Right for Once It is refreshing to note the attitude of the Tribune representative assigned to the alleged riot. The trend of his story indicated a desire to tell the truth and nothing else concerning conditions as they really existed. His attitude on the occasion reverses the long expressed belief that "nothing good can come from Judea." Examiner Reporter Saw Red The Examiner article of Friday morning attempted to play the story up as bearing earmarks of the possibility of blood-shed and violence. The writer in his revolting ambition to find a false premise for his journalistic spleen made a laborious effort to predicate the trouble upon a baseless fact of the causes being the result of Negroes moving into white neighborhoods. Upon investigation the contrary was found to be the fact and the only possible reason for the stretch of this wild imagination was that it was born of a brain behind which there is no conscience and uttered from a soul permeated with the virus of race hatred. Dr. Chandler Makes Statement Dr. Chandler makes statement In an interview with Dr. E. H. Chandler, a chemist and leading colored citizen of Chicago Heights, residing at 22nd and Stewart Sts, he said, concerning the Examiner article this statement had no of fact, nor one scintilla of fact. On Dr. Chandler's behalf, the white and colored people of Chicago Heights have gotten along together in the most amiable manner. So far as colored people moving into colored and white districts is concerned, he said that there is no colored and white district in Chicago Heights', and that story is the outgrowth of the evil mind of the man who concocted it. He further stated that he knew of no hundreds of people leaving the city, and that motorcycle accident in which a colored man ran down and killed an Italian boy, had no connection with the present situation. Mayor Charges Political Plot Mayor E. G. Klinger of Chicago Heights, when asked concerning the alleged riot, said that the fake report was not only a symptom of a diseased mind, but charged the story to the workings of his political enemies who sought to embarrass his administration.

Greens bunch have been going big guns here of late, having added a col- lection of new and classy material to his roster and they have showed a few wins over the best teams around the circuit. The work of Luther, the crack south-paw, has been sensational and the ability that Taylor and Chase, right handers, have been flashing, stamps the Chicago Giant hurling staff as among the leaders in the new circuit. It is thought that several of the Western circuit teams will follow the trail of Green to the East, and in that way, the Bacharachs will have an opportunity to tackle such teams that theirs schedule does not arrange for during their tour West. The Bachs have an option for the use of the Brooklyn National League park on open dates and as they draw thousands to all games there, the Westerners, no doubt, will reap a financial harvest, and the fans of that section will be in for a view of some real pastiming. The Cuban Stars will open against the American Giants at Schorling Park, Chicago, Aug 15, with an exhibition game on tap at Gary, Ind, for Saturday, Aug. 14; following them comes the Kansas City Monarchs for a three conclusion of the fierce battle that was waged here of late in the far West City; as these two teams pulled every thing except civil war in their late go, the Fosters getting the worst of the fighting, no doubt whatever, the fans of the Windy City will turn out by the thousands, as they did at Kansas City for this series will decide the winner in the pennant drive. The Kansas Citys tackle Blunts Detroit Stars before coming to Chi and will be right on edge for the battle, which promises to be a hair-raising, grueling affair.

They sailed in a halo of glory which should reflect its self in the performances of our athletes. There are 400 of them—strong, healthy and clean. These men and women come from every state in the Union, and a few swimmers are from Honolulu. But among these Olympic competitors are five Colored American young men. Three of them Sol Butler, the idol of Drake college and captain of the track team this spring, Earl Johnson, the pride of the Morgan Community Club, of Pittsburgh, and B. Porteau, of the St. Christopher Club, need no introduction to the reading public. Butler won the broad jump at Harvard Stadium in the trials, and broke the world's record. Earl Johnson was fifth in the 5,000-metre run and second in the 10,000-metre. He is expected to snatch the last race from the select long distance men of the world. B. Ponteau is a boxer of recognized ability and should conduct himself in a manner favorable to the race.

August 14. cently added new material which has gained them much prestige, the Easterners will find a fromdurable foe when they get to Hoosierville. The Dayton Marcos will charge the St. Louis Giants enroute from the far West and may be in for a beating as the Mound City crowd are going big, having won a couple of games from the American Giants, one of them a shut-out, 5-0. At any rate these games for late August are very important, as they have a direct bearing on the final standing of the teams in the new circuit; and with each team up on their toes fighting tooth and nail, and all of the teams showing ability to take a fall now and then that means a lowering of the colors of the Foster club, the race is certainly waxing hot. The managers believe that the Chicago crew have winded themselves setting the pace they have ganged against them and unless the signs fail the real battling in the circuit has just begun and Sept. 1st is going to see the fiercest contests for supremacy that has ever occurred in any baseball organization; and the winner of the majority of the games for the next two weeks is going a long ways towards deciding the pennant winner in the new circuit.

Big Dick Redding found the going awful gory here last Sunday when "Rube" turned those terrible diamond terriers of his loose into the pit. The big Chicago Boss allowed himself about one inning for a general summing up of the situation and during that time the Bachs shoved two runs across the counter; the New Yorkers at once assumed a chesty pose and began to turky trot. In the Giants half of the first Gardner was an easy victim, Marselles to Pierce, but Malarwerk worked big Dick for a pass and found stealing second an easy job. De Moss flew out to left, but Torrentti stung one for two sacks scoring a man and Jim Brown beat one out down the first base line scoring a runner, when Gans ended the inning with a strike out. Result: Two hits, three stolen bases, a base on balls and two scores. There was nothing of note on the ins of the Bachs as William retired 'em in one two three order until the seventh when Pierce's Texas Leaguer resulted in a score at the expense of a mix-up. Over a ground ball hit by Redding. Giants pitched off a score in third inning, then grabbed a whole bunch in the seventh; as the snatching was well under headway, Redding was hurried to the cover of the bench leaving young Ryan in a position which could only be relieved by a Cuban catcher, Rojo looked like all the rest, the Giants pifering six bases at his expense. Big "Red" fanned one man, while Williams breezed three. The chief thrills of the affair was the smacking of Torrentti and Grant and a fast double play from third to first, first to home, retiring the side in the fifth.

"String Beans" Williams proved a mighty tough out for the Chicagoans to crack pitching one of the best games seen here this season. He fanned Torrentti in the eighth with bases packed, also Mathol and set down the first two men to face him in the ninth on strikes. Tom Johnson pitched magnificent ball for nine frames, the Easterners gleaming but four hits off his delivery. Tom Williams went two rounds holding the Bachs until the tenth when the home gang put over the winning marker. Gardner beat one out to Lundy, causing the latter to throw wild to first, the fleet foot one going to second; then Malarcher stepped up and stopped the show when he slammed one on the nose to left, scoring Gardner and ending the fray one to the good for the home team.

Detroit, Aug. 7.—Detroit Stars scored another victory Sunday afternoon at Mack park, when they defeated the Chicago Giants in the first game of a series, 5 to 4. Warfield's long drive in the final inning, scoring Holland from second, decided the contest. Jack White, aspirant for lightweight championship of the world got the decision over Harry Cook in the open air arena at Macks Base Ball Park in Detroit the other day. White went down for the count of six in the ninth round, but soon recovered himself and followed all around the ring for the remainder of the ninth. Lyons and Wesley also shared in honors at the plate the latter hitting a homer over the right field fence in the sixth, scoring two runs. Cook came back strong in the tenth round and did some good fighting but White was too fast and clever for him and there was nothing else to do but give White the decision. The Giants will play the Stars four more games. "Why didn't you send up a man, to mend our electric hell?" Jaek White is a pretty clever fighter and is going pretty fast toward his goal, lightweight championship.

News. At Marion, Ohio, July 22nd, Warren G. Harding, not only accepted the Republican nomination for President, but he took up the challenge of the law despisers by declaring that "the federal government should stamp out lynching." In these degenerate days of Democratic duplicity this is a new tone, but it has the ring of a clear bell.—Chicago Defender. Senator Harding promises to give the Negroes the same consideration accorded to all other groups of citizens. This is all the Negro people can ask; but this is exactly what the present administration does not give, and its Democratic successor cannot be expected to give it, for Cox stands right where his predecessors have stood, and must be controlled by his party associates, who believe as a "principle" in discrimination and abridgment of the rights of the black man.—Atlanta Independent. Democratic papers are advertising for a three-word slogan for their party in the campaign. Ah, we have it for them: "Democracy! Discrimination! Disfranchisement!" We are itching to add, "Discredited;" but they want only three—Kansas City (Mo.) Sun. Senator Harding did not whip the devil around the stump in his Marion speech; he caught the imp of lawlessness by the throat and cheerfully promised him to choke him to death with federal power. A man with Christian courage, this Harding.—Washington Eagle. We are glad to note that Senator Harding came out boldly on the Negro question. He is not a man to mince words.—The Union (Cincinnati, Ohio). On the point of law enforcement the Republican candidate said: "If I am elected I mean to be a constitutional president, and it is impossible to ignore the constitution, unthinkable to evade the law, when our every committal is to orderly government, These indications as to policies that Senator Harding may be expected to pursue should secure him the support of all thinking citizens—New York Age. Senator Warren G. Harding, Republican nominee, committed himself on the Negro question without evasiveness. He said among other things that he was in favor of federal intervention against lynchings and that he believed the Negro should be given full American privileges. We commend the Senator for his broad views. -Chicago Whip. The platforms as such differ materially in the following: The League of Nations, Armenia, Lynching, Immigration, Mexico and Labor. The party presenting the safer policy on these questions. We past record of achievement in the interest of the people will win the election.—The Competitor Magazine (Pittsburgh, Pa.). It is a real pleasure to chronicle that Senator Harding is not hard-boiledly committed against mandates, per see. He feels no overweaning enthusiasm concerning a mandate over the Turks in Armenia, while he is restless for a mandate over the lynchers in America. Prone to wonder if he isn't about right in deciding that a mandate at home is better to be chosen than a mandate abroad.—Chicago Defender. CAPABLE MAN SHOULD REMAIN IN LEGISLATURE Representative S. B. Turner, of the first legislative district, has been endorsed by the organization for reelection to the state legislature. While practically a new member from the standpoint of service he has already become invaluable to his constituents. It will be recalled that it was through the political sagacity of S. B. Turner, some twenty years ago, that Otis B. Duncan, now colonel of the Eighth Regiment, received his first political appointment at the state J. H. H. capital at Springfield. It was a significant coincident that on Col. Duncan's return from the world war, Representative Turner through his political influence interceded and had the present position created which carries with it a salary of $2,500.00 a year, known as superintendent of text books, now held by Col. Duncan. Mr. Turner, while unassuming in his actions, has been able to secure more positions for his constituents than any other member of our race SHOULD RETURN BARRETT TO BOARD OF REVIEWS Hon. Charles V. Barrett, candidate for re-election as a member of the Board of Review, has served two years and is now in the field for nomination in the September primaries. He has been endorsed by the Thompson wing of the Republican party and is well-known among our people as a fair and impartial public servant. He is the brother of Circuit Court Judge, George F. Barrett, and comes of a family that recognized merit regardless of color. During his two years of administration his record shows that he has missed no opportunity of demonstrating his kindly feeling towards members of our group. His attitude on public questions affecting our interest has proven him to be beyond the hampering influences of petty prejudices. M. B. He is a member of the law firm of Barrett & Barrett and formerly was assistant state's attorney under the late John E. W. Wayman. During his term as a member of the Board of Review, Bernard W. Fitts and several others have secured positions through his influence. He is a staunch friend of Mayor William Hale Thompson and believes in the principle of "all men up and no man down." He is a close friend of Judge Robert E. Crowe, candidate for state's attorney, and believes as Judge Crowe, that color should not be the basis for a man's political recognition. On numerous occasions he has exercised his influence on important matters of which our group have directly benefitted. For membership of the Board of Review, both men and women can vote and Mr. Barrett is the only candidate that should receive the support of our group. in the legislature. He presented, during the last session of the legislature, several bills, having as their aim the improvement of civic and industrial conditions of his constituents. He secured the first position ever held by our group in the state auditor's office under Andrew Russell. This position is held by Miss Nellie Calloway and carriers with it a salary of $200.00 a month. Among others who have been beneficiaries are Arthur H. Jones, member of the fire department: Harold White, in the state treasurer's office; Miss Lillian Hunt, stenographer of state legislature and numerous others. Representative Turner, by reason of his constituency, has always voted in the legislature with the men who believe in liberal policy and was the first member of our race to oppose the constitutional convention. He contended at that time that the present constitution under which the state of Illinois was governed carried with it every requirement essential to the success of the citizens of this state and that the only thing necessary was the proper enforcement of the laws already on the statute book. His election admits of no doubt which is as it should be in view of the manly stand that he has taken on public questions affecting the interests of his race. Why Wear White? Jinx: "What have any of the political parties to offer to the white collared wage slave?" Binx (a haberdashery salesman): "Well there are some pretty stylish colored stripe effects being worn this year." If hard words could have killed the Farmer-Labor party, the venom of the Kept Press would have murdered it five minutes after it convened. Teacher—"Alvin, what is space?" Alvin—"I have it in my head, but I can't explain it." You May Talk To One Man But an advertisement in this paper talks to the whole community Catch the Idea? Realty experts declare that the high rent problem is to be completely solved in the near future as a result of a novel plan now being put into effect by a colored real estate agent on the far South Side. The plan consists in erecting factory-built houses in a new subdivision now being opened to colored people at 11153 Vincennes Road. The houses are to be built at the factory and placed upon the ground ready to be erected. Payments are to be arranged on easy terms and in such manner that the purchaser takes care of both the house and lot in his payments just as if he were buying a lot with the building already upon it. J. H. Simons, a colored real estate agent, with offices at 11153 Vincentnes Road, who is in charge of the work, when interviewed by a WHIP representative, declared that the terms would be made so reasonable that the purchaser would not feel the strain as much as he does now in paying rent at the prevailing high prices. One feature pointed out by Mr. Simons was the fact that there would be no labor cost attached to the purchasing and erecting of the homes, inasmuch as the houses were of such simple construction that no knowledge of carpentry is necessary. Mr. Simons maintains a branch office of Fankner & Cook, well known south side real estate dealers, located at 3605 S. State S. The houses are said to be of a new and modern design, thoroughly durable in construction and material, and have been endorsed by leading architects and engineers. Building commissioners have also given their approval to this novel plan. Roofs will be of natural crushed red brown rock from the Vermont quarries, and the timber work and the doors and windows will be stained a deep Autumn brown. The material from which the walls are to be constructed, is a substance known as Pro-Slate, a tough and durable material, especially developed for walls and roofs. It is of a heavy built-up texture, weather-proof and water-proof, with a coating of crushed rock. The water-proofing agent is said to be thoroughly impregnated with a plastic material which gives it a toughness of texture that eliminates any possibility of cracking or checking. Much interest is being manifested in this new and novel plan, and at latest reports many prospective purchasers have visited the subdivision with a view to acquiring their own homes and at the same time beat the "rent hog." DR. CADE ELECTED TO SECRETARYSHIP OF NEW HOSPITAL That the young men of Chicago are coming into their own is evidenced by the unanimous election of Dr. Fred C. Cade as secretary of the Fort Dearborn Hospital at 38th and Vernon Ave. The hospital is the finest and most modernly equipped institution in America. It was recently purchased by a number of prominent colored physicians at a sum of $50,000. It has over 75 beds ready for occupancy, and well equipped laboratories in addition. A. E. Dr. Carde is a native of Alabama. He came to this city about ten years ago and took his pre-medical work at the University of Illinois. Later he matriculated in the Chicago Medical College, and finished his medical course with high honors. During his entire course Dr. Carde relied only upon himself for support. The same determination with which he was actuated in the persuance and accomplishment of an education has been retained and put into operation since he began the practice of his profession. This is demonstrated by the inestimable service he rendered his colleagues and the public, both in the purchase and conduction of this much needed institution. To Train Nurses Recent epidemics have shown the lack of trained nurses in the city. The nurse training department which is contemplated by the trustees and directors promises to be a valuable assistance in alleviating this condition. Dr. Cade, when interviewed by a reporter at his office, 3035 Prairie Ave. refused to make comment only to this extent: "I feel it my duty to be used in any capacity that will serve the best interests of my people." New York City, Aug. 10—An international convention is in session at the Universal Negro Improvement Association, having as its object and aim the full control of all Africa. The convention is represented by the darker people from all parts of the continent and the association claims a membership of one million, having as its goal the final enrollment of 400,000,000 members of the darker races. The program of the committee calls for the absolute supremacy of the black races throughout Africa and for the elimination of cruel and harboring treatment now in vogue by the white people of European countries.

Late in the fall of 1918 the Bolshevik or Soviet government sent notes to the Allied Nations and Associated Powers then sitting in peace conference in Paris, asking for a conference with a view to settling world differences. Princess Island, or Prinkipo, as it is sometimes called, was designated as the meeting place. Said the Bolshevik to the rest of the world: "Let us go to Prinkipo." Lloyd George and Clemenceau laughed; President Wilson is said to have adjusted his spectacles to his intellectual nose and peered over his map to find where Prinkipo really was. The whole world was amused to think that a handful of Russian outlaws should have the audacity to invite the constituted authorities of powerful nations to a peace conference. The invitation was lightly brushed aside and speedily forgotten. Today Red Armies are knocking at the door of Western Europe, casting a war cloud over the entire world. That handful of Russian outlaws has been augmented a thousand fold, and the hopes and fears of 150,000,000 Russians hang upon the success of the Red hordes now hammering at the gates of Poland. Bolshevism threatens to engulf the entire world. Therefore it is not surprising that Lloyd George and his associated allies are solicitously saying to the Bolshevik: "Will you come to London?" Regardless of the sincerity of their motives or the justice of their cause, the Bolsheviks are probably doomed to failure. Their leaders have fallen victim to the same mirage which lured Caesar, Napoleon, and Wilhelm to their doom. Lenine and Brusiloff have conquered world conquest. That alone spells the end of fat. But these question D. How much bloodshed, slaughter, and devastation must be witnessed before the Red movement is finally crushed. A conference at Prinkipo might have settled all difficulties two years ago; might have saved Europe, and probably the world, another deluge of blood and iron. The Russian people have finally awakened from their thousand years' slumber, and as a sleeping giant, awakening from a nightmare of slavery and oppression, with their eyes still unaccustomed to the new day's bright glare of liberty, are striking out right and left, blindly and furiously—claying, claying, claying. Their wild orgy of bloodshed will be stopped, but not until thousands of lives have paid the price of centuries of oppression. The American Negro is another sleeping giant who has been to toss restlessly in his slumbers. His awakening is at hand, and—God forbid that he should awaken as the Russians have! His leaders are crying: "Let us go to Prinkipo!" They know that should he awaken in a rage of unbridled fury, it would be almost disastrous to him in the end, but white America does not seem to know that it would be just as disastrous for his oppressors as for him. Twelve million raving maniacs could make life worthless for 93,000,000 sane men. His crys for justice are met with burnings, lynchings, mebbings, and beatings which multiply so thick and fast as to make it difficult to tabulate them all. Hear, America, oh hear the cry: "Let us go to Prinkipo!" Wait not until it is America who must say to the Negro: "Will you come to London?" No sane man wishes to see America an armed camp of race against race, but "coming events cast their shadows before," and the aspect of increasing burnings, lynchings, and race hatred on the one hand, compared with the frequent and bitter outbursts of violent resentment on the other hand, makes sober minded men shudder as they think of the future. "Let us go to Prinkipo." Sowing Time Somewhere in Holy Writ there is a quotation to the effect that whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap. This is a very simple saying. When properly analyzed and thoroughly assimilated it will no doubt form a premise from which humanity can find a solution for many of its problems. However, as simple as it appears, it is evidently grossly misunderstood. Ordinarily when this phrase is used, the user thinks of the individual as separate and distinct from other members of society. This is a very grave error. Such a mistake is sufficient to obscure valuable lessons which this proverb contains. Every thing in great nature is related to every other thing. It is only in the light of this law of relativity or inevitable connection that it is possible to extract the myriad of truisms from the premise. With the entire human family as an entity, we are led to this conclusion: That it is inevitable that one nation or people should reap the harvest sown by others. Since his advent to America centuries ago, the American negro, so far as making laws, customs, and conventions is concerned, has not done very much sowing. He had absolutely no part in the sowing of petty national jealousies, race hatred, ignominious ambition, lust for unearned fame and power. Yet, he was snatched from his painful task of recuperating from slavery and taken to Europe to harvest disease, steel bullets, and seas of blood. In this great period of adjustment, when nations, races, and classes are struggling for a place in which to stand, a splendid opportunity is presented to the Negro. THIS IS SOWING TIME. Let us stop begging and whining for justice, liberty, and democracy. The white man does not possess enough justice, liberty, and democracy for his own consumption. That is why he has so many wars and strikes. It stands to reason that he has none to give or pass out to Negroes. These are the real jewels of civilization, they do not come as gifts. They are so scarce that even if we help others secure them, we have no assurance that generosity will pervade their minds as it THE CHICAGO WHIP did when they invited us to share in the horrors of their war. Let us realize from now on that while we have with other working people many things in common, we are also unique in many peculiarities. Let us study our own condition and our own needs. Let us map out a program to obliterate the conditions peculiar to us, and beware of all men who insist on imposing their leadership on us. An intelligent use of the ballot, free from money or sinister influence, will not only yield abundant returns for our own efforts, but will also prevent needless suffering from the blunders of the ignorant and prejudiced elements of other groups. Wherever the ballot is denied read history and see what other races have had to undergo in order to get it, and govern yourselves accordingly. He who has not the franchise is dead from the shoulders up. He is a slave and better dead than alive. Let us spend our dollars only with those who are the most kindly disposed, and who are willing to give us the greatest consideration in employment and general recognition. Treat every man as an equal until he proves otherwise. Compel every man to do the same toward you. Dislike no man on account of color. By all means let no man put a disadvantage upon you because he pretends to dislike you on account of yours. If a drop of water were poured into the Atlantic Ocean from the docks at Liverpool, it would affect the smallest minnow in the harbor of New York. Let us wake up, and be concerned about every phase of public conduct. Too often we hear the expression: "I don't care who is President, Governor, Pastor of my church, or Alderman of my ward; it makes no difference." It does make a difference if we expect to stand shoulder to shoulder with other groups. Just as every minnow in the seas is affected by the smallest drop of water falling into the ocean, we are affected by the acts of others. Now is sowing time. We may not always be right, even if we sow consciously, but the generations of tomorrow will laud us for our effort. It is better to trust our future to our own sowings where there is a possibility of good than to forever be content to reap the eternal agony, inconvenience and disadvantage of the white man's sowings. Sow. Sow. Sow. What some of our Northern Neighbors Think Of Us What some of our Northern Neighbors Think Of Us The Southern Negro as a Northern C t i n To The Chattanooga Times: done want to go! Then turning done want to go! Then, turning to the young man, she continued disdainfully, "I'd rudder go back de wrong way than take anything from glutes!" It is somewhat amusing to see the astonished, way in which our friends in the north occasionally get their eyes opened regarding certain racial peculiarities of the colored brother I have a friend in Cleveland, O., an artist and a writer, and a very intelligent and sensible man, who expresses himself as follows in a letter I recently received from him, and from which I make this extract with his permission: To which my friend adds: "O Liberty, even if thou slayest me, will I believe in thee." The northern people have not yet learned that the southern negro is a natural born aristocrat, in his own estimation, and that he has a supreme contempt for the "poor white trash" whom he encounters in the north. No well-bred southern negro—or any other kind of a negro, for that matter—would conduct himself on native health like those described by my Cleveland friend; because in the south he recognizes the fact that while he is an aristocrat, his white neighbors must one round above him on the ladder, and that they are accordingly entitled to his decent respect. But he has no sort of respect for a northern man, unless the latter has the evident visible marks of superiority. There have been many negroes imported into Cleveland during the last three years, and I have had opportunity for the first time to observe the southern negro. I must say that as soon as he arrives here, where his rights are respected, he swells right up and makes, a bold and unfavorable impression on our people. They are rude and insist on creating disturbances on every possible occasion; and they are very uncivil. Those I have come in contact with are great Ears and thieves. I can tell the southern negro at once when he or she enters a street car. The northern negro walks in like any other citizen, and finds a seat or stands, as the case may be but the southern negro elbows his or her way in, an ugly look on the face, and they trample on feet or thrust baskets or bundles in peoples faces, and rarely have a civil word for any one. They all seem to carry a chip on their shoulder. I suppose the new freedom and equality have gone to their heads. The south is the place for the negro, and if we can get a few more southern governors who will manifest backbone enough to shoot or hang some of the barbarians who pose as lynchers, after the manner of the governor of North Carolina, the race issue will soon adjust itself, the negroes who have congregated in the north will return to their native country and peace and decency will prevail. I would like to be governor of a state for about half a day, where a mob had hung or burned a negro without trial. I would do some hanging on the other side, or know the reason why. And this remark applies to the north with just as much force as to the south. We have no right to call ourselves civilized until we act like civilized people, rather than cowardly and bloodthirsty ruffians and barbarians. A young couple were on a street car, and I overheard them discussing the route back to the city. They were undecided whether they should remain on the car or change at a certain junction. I knew from their talk that they were confused, and I thought I might be of assistance, so I inquired politely where they desired to go. The young woman turned on me and in an irritated and insolent way and said, "We knows what we W. S. BRYAN. Chattanooga, Tenn., July 30, 1920. THE WEEK'S BEST EDITORIAL. Negro Opportunity after the War the negro's status must come in order to avert economic insolvency in the south. The Daily News of Jackson, Miss., has said: "We allow petty officers of the law to harass and oppress our negro labor, multing them of their wages, assessing stiff fines on trivial charges, and often they are convicted of charges which if preferred against a white man would result in prompt acquittal." The Charlotte Observer says that "the real thing that started the exodus of the negro from the south lies at the door of the farmer and is easily within his power to remedy. The negro must be given better homes and better surroundings. Fifty years after the Civil War he should not be expected to be content with the same conditions that existed at the close of the war." (From the Chicago Daily News, August 4) Strategically the position of the negro has been improved by the war and the consequent economic disturbances. His resistance to social and economic oppression and to the denial of his constitutional rights is becoming stiffer. The war has advanced his political education. It has given him more economic independence. As the negro advances educationally and economically he will endure with less readiness the conditions now imposed upon him in some sections of the country. This evident truth will mean, according to Herbert J. Seligmann, in "The Negro Faces America," a widening breach between the two races up to the point when white men will adjust their present dogmas to the new situation. "If the war," says Mr. Seligmann, "made the white south more than ever determined to show the negro 'his place,' it made the negro more politically self-conscious than ever before in his history in this country." The potent factor in this situation is the new consciousness by the negro of his economic value. Negro labor flowed away from the hardships of the south to the higher wages, freedom and relatively decent social status of the northern cities. In consequence progressive elements in the south appreciate even more than before the dependence of southern prosperity on negro labor. Better schools, better housing, perhaps even his constitutional right to vote, will accrue to the negro from the necessary economic readjustment. Other factors of the new emancipation modify this dangerous racial tension. While some white elements would restrict the negro's progress for the very reason that it gives him a more resistant self-respect, others—still in minority, but increasing in influence—see that improvement of GOOD LUCK OPENING SALE SOUVENIRS ALL THIS WEEK!
