STORIES OF RAPINE STIR NATION STORIES OF RAPINE STIR NATION Furor of Indignation Results in Federal Probe of American Misgovernment WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 20.—The critical presentation of facts bearing on the Haitian situation by J. Weldon Johnson, of the N. A. A. C. P., who was sent to Haiti to investigate rumors of wholesale murders by American marines there has attracted such widespread attention as to awaken the American government to a thorough investigation of the matter, causing the appointment of Admiral Henry T. Mayo, Admiral J. H. Olivey, and Brig. General Pendleton, to be named as a special court of inquiry, authorized to send for all persons and papers, and to sift every particle of evidence. It appears from evidence obtained and afterwards suppressed, that the American marines in Haiti had carried on a partial wholesale slaughter of natives, and had committed some of the most cruel and inhuman acts upon innocent and inoffensive Haitians under the guise that these people were bandits. 1. Other Charges Preferred. On numerous occasions the people affected have endeavored to bring their protest before the proper authorities for investigation and correction, in every instance some exceptional interest was called (Continued on page 6.1) DIG UP BODY OF SLAIN CHILD Friday night, Albert Clark, 1930 W. Kinzie street, noticed his dog scratching up some object in the corner of the black yard. Upon investigation it proved to be the body of a 4-year-old girl, later identified as Edna Mae Johnson, daughter of Mrs. Nellie Nicholson, 906 N. Lincoln street. Mrs. Nicholson appeared at the W. Chicago avenue police station to ask the police to find her daughter and her husband, the stepfather of the child. It was then that she learned of the discovery of the child's body. Upon examination, Clark old the police Roy Nicholson had brought the baby to his house on Sunday morning. He denied any knowledge of the murder. Nicholson has disappeared. The police are looking for him. Clark is being held as a witness. Wilson Stays Girl's Execution WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 20. President Wilson intervened to stay the execution of Josephine Perry, a young colored girl, who was condemned to die here last Friday for the murder of another woman. Her sentence was commuted to life imprisonment. No woman has been hanged in the District of Columbia since the execution of Mrs. Surratt in connection with the assassination of President Lincoln.

SCOTT, CLAIMS OTHER MAN POSED AS WIFE'S BROTHER Says She Asked That Cot Be Put in "Brother's" Bedroom For Her Use The case of Matthews vs. Matthews was called before Judge Fisher Thursday, Oct. 14, and finally concluded the following day. The case attracted considerable attention and each side was represented by an array of talent. Mrs. Rosella Matthews, 3817 Vernon avenue, was represented by Harris B. Games, of the law firm of Ellis and Westbrook, while Leonard H. Matthews, the husband, of 3954 Indiana avenue, was represented by John F. Wilson and W. E. Mollison. Tried Before Jury. A jury was called upon to determine whether or not the husband was or was not guilty of the charges alleged, namely, non-support. Matthews contended that he had always supported his wife, and had lived in conformity with his marriage rows until it came to his attention that there was a star boarder in his house, for whom the choice delectables and viiands were reserved. This star boarder, who was a Guger by name, was somewhat of an epicurean, and during the past summer, went to Fox Lake to act as chief at a large hotel there. While there, Matthews charges that his wife followed him ostensibly to do the pastry cooking at the aforementioned hotel. He further alleges that she was introduced as his sister, and asked that a cot be put in her brother's room for her sleeping purposes. Mrs. Matthews Denies Allegations. Mrs. Matthews denied the allegations and stated that she went to Fox Lake because her husband failed to supply her with the necessities of life, also charging that while she was sick in bed, her husband removed all the furniture from the house except the bed which she was occupying. The jury seemed to discredit the "cot story," and after twenty minutes' deliberation vindicated Mrs. Matthews ordering her husband to pay her ten dollars per week, and placing him under $800 bond. Complain of Segregation at Harding Rally LOUISVILE, Ky., Oct. 20—The colored voters of this city are worked into a fever heat of indignation at the alleged discriminatory orders of the Republican managers, who ordered the segregation of colored people at a Harding rally here last Thursday night. The rally occurred at the armory and was advertised as an open meeting for all Republicans. When they were told to go to the balcony, hundreds of colored voters left the meeting in indignation. This act has caused the prophecy that thousands of voters will hold a Republican party on election day. One Louisville paper adicts its readers that 21,000 buttons, being made reading "Vote for L. Gottfried, and Vote No on the Bond Issue." William S. Lovett is the colored candidate for the board of education. Ray Freed On Habeas Cornus DETROIT, Mich., Oct. 20.—Thomas Rait, charged with a murder at Millersville, Ga., was freed on habeas corpus proceedings in the circuit court here late last week. The point at issue was the constitutionality of the requisition asking his return to Georgia. CHARGE HUGE WASTE OF MONEY CHARGE HUGE WASTE OF MONEY Claim Entire Budget Spent With no Visible Results; Friends given Preference Rumors of willful waste and useless expenditure of money by the managers of the Separate Speakers' Bureau of the Republican National Committee, with headquarters at the Auditorium Hotel, are affront in Chicago and various other sections of the country. A. "THE GEORGIA PEACH" The Speakers' Bureau has been conducted by Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, National Committeeman from Georgia, and Perry W. Howard, of Mississippi. It is charged that these officials have spent several thousands of dollars, much of which was spent for unnecessary long distance telephone calls, and in bringing their friends from voteless states in the South to advise voters in Northern and Western states how they should vote.

Free-Love Will of $80,000 Legal Saves Court ASHLAND, Miss, Oct. 20.—The case in chancery of Lake vs. Maxwell, where the will of Billie Tim Smith (white) was tested for validity, was decided in favor of Mrs. Manie Lake (colored) here late last week. The case has attracted much attention because the entire estate of $80,000 was willed to the colored woman and her two children, generally recognized to be the free-love offspring of Smith and the Lake woman. A bitter tight for the possession of the property was waged by Mrs. E. A. Maxwell (white) Smith's aunt, and the apparent heir to the fortune. U. S. May Demand Naval Base in Haiti PORT AU PRINCE, Oct. 20.—Information from highest government circles has revealed the fact that the American government is considering demanding the right to establish a naval base at Port-Au-Prince, the capitol. Haitians are tremendously at the rearier, as they are mindful of the reign of terror imposed upon the island by the U. S. Marines. BREAKS UP COURT AS "OTHER WOMAN" TESTIFIES Uninvited Guest Quers Divorce Proceedings and Brands Star Witness "as Other Woman" When Sheadrick Hall, 736 E., 48th street, appeared in Judge Harry Lewis' court to ask a divorce from his wife, Norma Hall, on the grounds of desertion, an unlooked-for sensation was sprung among the spectators, a sensation which, in the opinion of the learned judge, was not in keeping with the decorum of a court of law Uninvited Guest Appears. Univ. of Hawaii Press Hall's case had been prepared in due form by his legal adviser, and no difficulty was anticipated in obtaining the decree. The case had gotten as an artifact of the testimony or press of Mrs. Norma Hall, Mrs. Steward, of 736 E. 48th street, of address Hall was given to Mrs. Norma Hall had told her that (Mrs. Hall had no intention of warning to her husband. Hall continued enclosed He settled him on a chair with a sigh of relief as his new visions of freedom, of relief, of "storm and stride." Just then the child was heard among the spectators that woman was halting the proceeding. Mrs. Norma Hall was on the door. "Stop," she streamed, "this woman is now living with my husband. She has a personal interest in his maintaining a divorce. I'm willing for him to have it but he shouldn't get it on the word of this woman." Bailiffs Intervene. A hot cross-breed of verbal accusations and bitter recriminations followed and the court was in pandemonium until the court bailiff came to the rescue of outraged dignity and restored order. After the smoke had cleared away Judge Lewis ordered Mrs. Hall to retain a lawyer to look after her interests, and the case was continued. SAVES INSANE MAN FROM GALLOWS SAVES INSANE MAN FROM GALLOWS The astute legal ability of Atty. Herman K. Barnett, of the law firm of Barnett & Barnett, 184 Washington street, probably saved "Alabama Rosebud" slayer of Mr. Carrie Selby, 2027 Federal street, from the gallows The astute legal ability of Atty. Herman K. Barnett, of the law firm of Barnett & Barnett, 184 Washington street, probably saved "Alabama Rosebud," slayer of Mrs. Carrie Selby, 2627 Federal street, from the gallows. "Alabama Rosebud," the only name by which the slayer is known was charged with murder resulting from the criminal assault upon Mrs. Selby, at whose home the slayer was a roomer. The assault occurred on April 26, 1918, and the victim died May 1, 1918. Following the assault "Rosebud" escaped and was captured in the month of September of the same year in Chicago. Previously Confined to Asylum. Upon the arrest of the slayer, he was held to the grand jury on a charge of murder and Atty. Barnett was retained. The prisoner appeared for trial before Judge Kersten of the Criminal Court. It was learned in the course of the trial that the defendant had been previously confined in an insane asylum in Kentucky, but was released while still of unsound mind. The jury found that the defendant was still insane at the time of the commission of his crime and recommended that he be committed to the penitentiary for the criminal insane. Atty. Barnett is the son of former Asst. State's Atty. Ferdinand L. Barnett. The drug store of Harvey B. Sanders, 4750 St. Street, was robbed for the third time Tuesday morning between the hours of 1 and 4 a.m. A loss of about $300 in drugs and money was incurred. [Inside the frame] ROSCOE SIMMONS CALL YELLOW JOURNALISM MARCUS GARVEY AGAIN TO THE "MAD MOSES" FRONT ROSCOE SIMMONS CALL YELLOW JOURNALISM MARCUS GARVEY AGAIN TO THE "MAD MOSES" FRONT In a recent issue of a St. Louis colored paper which it is learned the "famous orator," Roscoe Simmons has secured a controlling interest in come out with the surprising statement that Marcus Garvey is mad and that he is a false prophet. Roscoe Simmons is expected to speak in New York soon and at that time will be brought to task. It is said for the accusation that he has made against the leader of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Black Star Line. This Roscoe Simmons is the same Roscoe Simmons who has been making foolish oratorical outbursts over the country devoid of substance and constructive plan. Garvey Followed by Millions. Garvey Followed by Martin The Garvey movement is gaining popularity all over the country and boasts over two million members, under this institution the Black Star Line Company was fostered and the Negro Factories Corporation was established. The plan of Garvey is essentially economic and is being heralded as the greatest force that the world has yet known in awakening race consciousness in Negroes and race pride among despised groups. It has been stated by some of the leading scholars of the country that even if the Garvey movement fails, that it has done more toward making Negroes think collectively than any other institution in the country. This institution is manned and controlled entirely by colored men. Simmons Scored by "Race Leader." In a recent meeting in Chicago, James Walker Hood Eason, who has been elected by the N. I, P. A. leader of American Negroes, stated that the attack from this gentleman was warranted because he was in ignorance as to the plan and methods of the organization Eason further stated that he would challenge the "world famed orater" to debate any tangent to the Negro question and that he would convince him of his mistrust to attack such a colossal and stupendous a project as the Black Star Line Assn. World War Veteran Dies RICHMOND, Va., Oct. 20—Prof. Alonza Whittington, a teacher in the graded schools of Salisbury, N. C., died here last Sunday. Sgt.

See Page 8. EIGHT PAGES 3 IN HO SLAIN IN INDIANA HARBOR SALOON BRAWL YELLOW JOURNALISM AGAIN TO THE FRONT Sunday afternoon a mob of 25 white men attacked and chased William Meyers, 22, 7610 W. 64th street, Argo, upon the complaint of Mrs. H. Dunn, 4936 Champlain avenue. The fugitive fled into the home of policeman Thomas Clancy, 5329 Ellis avenue, who commanded a passing automobile and took Meyers to the Hyde Park station. Early editions of the "Herald-Examiner" appeared on newsstands carrying a red top-headline—"Riot in Washington Park." This headline was shouted by every newsboy in the city. Evidently the public has become so used to this sort of journalism on the part of certain daily papers in Chicago that little or no attention is given to it. Meyers was arraigned in the Englewood Branch of the Municipal Court Monday morning and fined $100 on a charge of disorderly conduct. The charge of disorderly conduct carries with it no implication of attempted assault. Claims She Made Advances. In an interview Meyers claimed that the actions of the Dunn woman caused him to think she was making advances to him, and she made motions which he interpreted to be beckoning to him. The appearance of two other women frightened her, and she screamed, he said. Beptist Women Pledge $250.00. WICHITA, Kas., Oct. 20.—The twenty-ninth annual convention of the Colored Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society closed its sessions at Calvary Baptist Church here last week with donations of funds amounting to $217,059. The money will be distributed proportionately among institutions maintained by the Kansas Baptist Convention. REAL "MEN AND First of A Series See H PRICE FIVE CENTS FAKE LDUP HOLDUP TALE ASSAILED BY WITNESSES State to Act in Spite of Acquittal by Prejudiced Coroner's Jury On October 1st, a story was circulated to the effect that Indiana Harbor, Ind, which is near Chicago, was in the throes of a terrible race riot. It was learned from scattered reports mostly from the white press, that it was not a riot but an attempted holdup by three bold black bandits of a saloon in Indiana Harbor and that these bandits had been caught red-handed and slain as they attempted to escape. Coroner's Jury Dismisses Accused. A few days later the story of the holdup was verified before the coroner's jury and the accused were discharged preemptorily. It is said that representatives from colored publications visited the scene of the crime and were told in gruff tones to leave in a hurry or they would suffer the same fate of the "bandits." It is said that a hunchback whose hangman will the Last Chance saloon was seen nervously fingering his revolver when the colored reporters appeared. These suspicious actions led to further investigation that has brought to light a gruesome story of cold-blooded murder and hideous facts surrounding. From three alleged eyewitnesses of the white race and four of the colored race, it was learned that Yancey Jenkins, William Wilmore and Archie Higgins were slain in the Last Chance saloon on Michigan avenue in Indiana Harbor on the evening of October the first at 8:30. That their slayers were the saloonkeeper, a hunchback mill employment agent and a third whose identity has not yet been confirmed. The slaving grew out of a crap game in the saloon in which the colored men won a few hundred dollars. After winning this money the men were regaling themselves with the liquid refreshment (Continued on page 6) Loop Dentists Who Segregate, Locate on South Side The Boston Dental Co., located at 135 S. State street, have opened large and "attractive" quarters at the corner of 35th and State streets, more particularly at 3457 S. State street. This company is already operating under the name of the Hall Dentists. They are making elaborate preparations for colored trade although only a few of their loop establishment see fit to segregate colored patients and put them in quarters separate from the rest of those who are desirous of having dental work at "fancy" prices. Plan a Museum in Connection. These enterprising "professional" men plan to conduct a free museum in the lobby of their building and many of the people of the South Side, which are mostly colored, are expected to be attracted by this free show. Many of the colored people of the community, have expressed their disapproval of the establishment. One gentleman who resides nearby was heard to remark that he thought that such procedure by such people was an insult to the professional men of the neighborhood and a reflection on the intelligence of the race. One of the employees of the said firm was heard to remark that they did not believe in mixing, notwithstanding the fact that they expect to get a living from the community.

The Association at one time held the faith and the confidence of the majority of colored people, but that confidence and faith is not so firm now. Many other institutions are gaining adherents and footholds in the country. They are also offering different programs to the people. The N. A. A. C. P. silently scorn these institutions and refuses to consider them seriously. The N. A. C. C. P. is surrounding itself with concentric circles of SELF. The Negro Problem is the problem of the day. THIS problem cannot be solved by any one organization. It takes both the Army and Navy to win wars. If THE ASS is desirous of aiding in this work, they must come to one conclusion and come to it quickly, and that is that they are not all powerful and omnipotent. They must stand ready and willing to aid, assist and abet others in the great battle for REAL EMANCIPATION. The Chicago Defender's Editorials are, as a rule, weak and childish ramblings. The editorial of October 16 proves to us that the editors either are not reading or they are not intellectually honest. Probably both. The Defender states: "That Senator Harding's speeches stamp him as statesman of high rank." WE would state that the Senator's speeches stamp as a politician of high rank. That is to salve the white South and draw wool over the black Americans at the same time. The Senator states in Sedalia, Oklahoma, on October the eleven words to this effect: "The South's problems belong to the South and that the Negro is not intended to enjoy his rights in the presence of the white man." This, according to the Defender, the world's "Greatest Weekly," would stamp the Senator as a great statesman. Reactionary, ignorant newspapers like Reactionary, Uncle Tom Leaders, are looking for GOLD not GOOD. If a million readers read that insidious and false editorial, the race stands in poor position to be correctly informed. For over fifty years the Negro race has been the victims of mercenary newspaper and mercenary leaders. Henry Lincoln Johnson and Perry Howard, those "race leaders of recent fame," have been placed in the Fining Pot and came out all dross. The race will soon learn that when a Negro's picture appears in a white paper that he has either committed murder or has compromised either himself or his race upon some important issue. The leaders have been telegraphing glowing messages to Negro accomplices in New York and many good dollars have been squandered injudiciously and extravagantly. Major Moton has been replaced by Chairman Will H. Hayes as the political adviser of the colored race in America. In his stead former Assistant Attorney General W. H. Lewis has been selected. This is a wise selection, inasmuch as it is the lesser of two evils. Certain Avaricious White Dentists have established "Dental Dragnets" for colored citizens right in the heart of the Black Bell and have such little respect for the race as to think that they can maintain segregated establishments in the loop and insult the colored people of Chicago with flaming electric signs and wax figures as bait to Bullet them. This evil will be oolant will surmarily. TO THE YOU KNOW EM EDITOR You know those "couples" who make Walkers Creek Drug Store at 35th and State Streets their meeting place and spooning place.

FIELDS The economic and industrial situation in America which is deeply interwoven with politics requires a conservative thinker, one who is acquainted with all phases of our national life and is concerned with the many important questions as the Chief Magistrate of the Nation. No group of people from a racial point of view should be more concerned over the coming election than our race group. This is true for various reasons, principally among which we are still to obtain many of the natural and civil rights which are enjoyed and are already made secure for other race groups. Because of this particular struggle for fundamental rights denied only to us as a race group, we are placed in a position in American politics entirely different from any other group of citizens and while we as a race are interested in common with all other race groups, with the eradication of the evils growing out of the dissipation of the natural and human resources, the League of Nations, the tariff, and the trusts, labor and finance, we are more interested and well should we be, in the opportunities to obtain more and more of those natural and common rights of life and property which are denied to us alone. Harding Takes Backward Step The tone of Senator Warren G. Harding's speech in Sedalia, Okla., October 10th, when he was asked his opinion of Senator Lodge's Force Bill was neither satisfactory nor reassuring to our group. The Senator seemed to have gone a long way out of his way to placate the South when he said, "I do not ever intend that it shall mean that the white man and the black man must be made to experience the enjoyment of their rights in each other's company." The most ardent admirers of Senator Harding must view with some concern and alarm the manifest decadence of the ethical ideas of our national life. It is difficult to understand how the Senator could have presumed it to be necessary for him to cast an aspersion upon a race of people for the purpose of winning favor with a section of the country from which he will receive but poor returns. His answer did not indicate nor does it inspire one with the thought that as President much is to be hoped for from him. In Local Politics In State and County politics it is of great importance that we exercise every influence possible to secure the election of the entire ticket, especially in view of the fact that such known and pronounced friends whose public record show that in the performance of their duties they do not cavil over race questions. Such men as Chief Justice Robert E. Crowe, candidate for State's Attorney; Frank S. Riehemer, candidate for County Judge. SAVINGS DEPT. OPEN SATURDAYS FROM 9 A.M. TO 8 P.M.

Well, one of the dentists at this place in particular might be a very good dentist, but he certainly was not very careful about what he did. He was smoking a cigarette while working and he did not wash his hands before putting them into the patient's mouth. Of course, the patient did not object because he did not know how unsanitary this was and perhaps he thought it was all right for the dentist to be so inconsiderate. ONLY a few people are privileged to ride in as a fine limousine as Nosey saw on 35th Street the other afternoon. It was the last word in automobiles and the colored chauffeur had on one of the finest uniforms. This beautiful car turned south on State Street and then Nosey saw that it had three ladies in it reclining on the beautiful upholstery. Every one of them had on "bondorff" caps instead of the finery that one woman wore. Nosey saw this beautiful car and its well-groomed chauffeur. It may be all right, BUT it looked like — Well you know, it did not look right.

There were no words spoken except near the end, when the little lady had manned the larger one to her heart's content; she triumphantly walked away, saying: "I told you that I would beat you up the next time I caught you." YETERDAY I boarded a car at Madison and States Sts., coming south—at least I attempted to board one, but I found my waxy impeded by a very robust lady built on most generous proportions. In addition to her own adipose tissue she was towing three small children in her wake, built along her lines. She blocked the traffic fully three minutes before she finally got herself and her brood arranged in the car. I found upon investigation that she had brought the family along to assist her in the purchase of a handkerchief. I came to the conclusion that its no difficult task to get people out of the South, but you have a job on your hands when you attempt to get the South out of them. and Charles' V.

Thursday day morning involving the loss of blankets and linen from the Pullman Company which, if all were true, a tractor worth more than a passing notice, and had it not been for this fair and impartial manner in which Judge Richardson handled the proceedings, a number of innocent women would have been deeply involved in the toils of the law. It is alleged by one who claims to know that certain discarded properties owned by the Pullman Company had for some time been peddled around the South Side by a man named Lindsey, and that several innocent women have purchased some of this property because it was explained to them that it was a sale of old goods. ACT II There is also a man employed by the Pullman Company, known as Officer Clark (white), who is said to have worked with Detective Sergeant Labhart (white), of the Third Police Precinct. After the property had been purchased, Lindsay is alleged to have informed these two officers of the names and addresses of the people who had purchased property. These people's houses are searched and the property is removed and it is alleged that in some cases other property was taken which did not belong to the Pullman Company.

This committee has been assured of sufficient support to justify the statement that the work will be continued. case was disposed of, the poor women who purchased the second-hand blankets or sheets, as the case may be, have spent $100 or $250 through this operation of graft and robbery. It is high time now, if these facts as presented are true for the political leaders of the ward to bring to the attention of Captain Coughlin, the commander of the district, the methods by which certain officers of his station are doing police duty. The people of the Second Ward have been for years bled and robbed by every device known to criminality, and very often by people who are seen to give them protection. It is time for somebody to call a hait to this method of imposition and robbery. The public is advised to secure a warrant for larceny for any property removed from your house by a police officer on those expeditions of "house searching." A star, blackjack, and a gun does not give a policeman the power to burglarize your home any more than a private citizen has the right with a black jack or gun.

Beale Street to Broadway a Scream. From Beale Street to Broadway, a new show played by the same company that played the Town Topic show, opened here very big on Monday night, October 11th. The vehicle is a very good one full of mirtful music and good comedy, Brown and Gulport were at their best and Gurtele Sanders was in excellent form. A new race was that of Alice Ramsey, who appeared here in Hello 1919. Miss Ramsey adds much tone to the company in her original style of work. Olle Burgonne danced the Brazilian Flirt and heard her sing, Leo Louder and James Thomas pleased their line of stuff. Little Mary Bradford in her shimmie number, was a distinct hit of the show, and responded to many encores. Dad Howard was good as the old man. Tressie Legge was perfection in the mother character and Dunk Thomas was a scream. The production was written by Aaron tates, Brown and Gulport, staged by Aaron Gates and music by Dave Peyton and Spencer Williams.

Doctors said my only hope of cure was to operate on it, but I finally got hold of something that quickly and completely cured me. Years have passed and the rupture has never returned.

"THE SCARLET PUPPY' TENSE AND GRIPPING The Lafayette Players bring their versatility into full play this week by presenting "The Lady of the Scarlet Poppy" close on the heels of that mirth-producing "Parlor, Bedroom and Bath." The latter is a play which might well be calculated to produce laughter throughout, but there is very little mirth in "The Scarlet Poppy." It is tense, thrilling and gripping, relieved here and there by spots of brightness. The central figure of this unique drama is Pauline Vallastro, known as "The Lady of the Scarlet Poppy," an unmoral wanton who is the siren that lures men to destruction in the famous casino at Escarlata in Buenos Aires. Paulina is not even averse to doing a bit of blackmailing if it be profitable and suits her purpose, and she is brazen in her machinations, her irresponsibility and her utter disregard of morality. But withal she is tired of being hailed as the mistress of a notorious gambling house, so she makes use of a damaging skeleton which she knows to be rattling in the family closet of the household of one Senator Lanier in New York City, to gain the entre to the circle of the she has so long and so covetously desired. But her determination to hold her own in the covered, social position she had so long sought meets a sturdy resistance from one Milton Randolph, a friend of the senator's wife, and a dwelling place of the wily siren, Paulina, who meets her wit and craft with his own, and who finally forces her to yield her social aspirations, and to leave the Lanier household in peace. Cleo Desmond, as the siren, appears to much better advantage than she does when she attempts the "Mary Pickford" type of roles. Arthur Ray, as her husband, lends a Latin-American atmosphere by his personality which naturally trends in that direction. Harry Plater, as their son, admirably portrays the exuberance of youth necessary to his role. J. L. Crimer, as Joseph Regolio, who has drifted into the depths, a victim of Pauline, elicits a spontaneous burst of applause in the dramatic scene of Andrew Briscoe as Mitron Randolph, the Americanican. Needless to say, Bishop is the center of attraction every minute he is on the stage in spite of the fact that he is perhaps somewhat elitary with his lines. Evelyn Preer, Elizabeth Williams H. L. Pryor and Charles H. Moore all present 'acceptably the remainder of the cast. BAMBOULA SURE TO DRAW CROWDS HERE From all accounts this season's show of "The Smarter Set" headed by the well-known Salem, Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt, called "Bambola," is one of the tuneful incoctions of mirth, melody, music, and that the book is considerable out of the general order. Our exchange editor clips the following from Baltimore American (Baltimore Md.) Tuesday, October 12th. "Bambola," described as America's greatest colored show, opened last night at the Lyric, amid a burst of razz and jazz, Salem Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt, long recognized as two of the best colored comedians on the legitimate stage lived up to their reputations last night, and their delineations of Jasper Jazz and Raspberry Razz elicited much applause. Briefly, the plot deals with Professor Lovling, who, after hearing the first four measures of Bamboula, an ancient African melody, not knowing from whence the melody originated, conceives the idea of tracing its original in order to prove that the Africans, as other people, have contributed to the music world. The musical numbers are of the "catchy" order. "I'm Just Music Mad," sung by Alonzo Fenderson, is undoubtedly the best hit of the show. The scenery in the second act is gorgeous. All in all "Bamboula" is good amusement for both white and colored, was evidenced by the audience at the opening performance. Colorful, tuneful, well-balanced cast, with well-trained voices, it is a good two hours diversion. Bamboula comes to the Grand theater week of November 11th, and will have its usual run of four weeks. Gertrude Saunders, Ollie Burgoyne, Alice Ramsay, Lenard Scott and James Thomas 30—PEOPLE—30 "LITTLE MOTHER TO BE" COMING TO AVENUE In this drama, which comes to the Avenue next week commencing Sunday matinee, October 24th, the Lafayette Players will be seen in a vehicle which has a very strong element of human interest, and just enough humor to prevent the pathetic element of the story from becoming sombre. It is decidedly true to life, as realistic as if there were such a thing as a printed book of life, and this story a page torn from this book that all might read and know the truth. The material for this play was conceived out of the mass furnished by the recent war, yet it is not a war play, even though the incident upon which it is based was occasioned by the topsy-turvy condition of the moral life of the nation directly traceable to the war and attendant conditions. The characters are natural, and from the commonplace stratum of life; its locale is a typical American town of the type familiar to us all. Mary, the heroine, is a victim of circumstance: she loves a man, to whom her guardian objects as a prospective member of the family and finds that all manner of obstacles are placed in her way when she would wed the man she loves. Her lover, when they are on the verge of eloping, is called away to war, and later when he returns to the home town on furlough from his camp he manages to persuade Mary's guardian to give her consent to the wedding. But there is always a fly in the ointment, and as everything is pointing toward happiness for Mary and Leroy, in steps the naughty villain to thwart it. By means of a changed telegram Leroy is called away to campmimated, and sails to France. Later the inevitable happens. Mary's baby, an offspring of the machinery of war, is born. Leroy's name is published in the casualty lists as killed in action; the villain persuades Mary to marry him to save the family honor, and to win for her grandfather the mayoralty election of the township, she consents. As the ceremony is in progress Leroy, invalidated home, makes a "Hairbreadth Harry" entrance on the scene, puts the villain to ignominious rout, and he and Mary stage a happy tade out, and all is well. To Give Away Autographs Needless to say the players will be seen to good advantage in this bill, and patrons of the drama are assured a real treat in the nature of a play so true to life that it might have happened in the lives of any of us. Commencing Saturday matinee, October 23rd, and continuing through subsequent matines, the management announces that an autographed photograph of the various members of the Lafayette Players now at the Avenue will be given to its patrons, a different photograph each week until your collection is complete. Saturday and Sunday matines, October 23rd and 24th, the photograph of Andrew S. Bishop will be the souvenir.

THE CHICAGO WHIP By Mildred Bryant--Jones Though it is a fact that grown hands which are not as flexible as young hands must not expect to accomplish as much in the matter of execution as the younger hands. It must be borne in mind that within the realm of music there are other fascinating and helpful branches besides the mere playing of an instrument. Music history and music application fields are the beginner may travel and quickly and surely and with he may experience some of the greatest joys and benefits of the art. In these times when so many homes are equipped with good phonographs it is an easy thing for even the tired man or woman to sit down in the evening and listen to good records of the world's greatest artists—both singers and instrumentalists—and in this manner become acquainted with the best in music. Many grown-ups have learned to correctly understand and appreciate orchestra music from records which are designed especially for this use. They give examples separately of the various instruments of the orchestra naming each, and afterwards produce the special groups in ensemble. The very best way to become familiar with the best in music is to hear it just as often as possible—not simply the music of one's favorite instrument—but good music of every kind all the time. If the adult beginner is in earnest he will find that in general music culture he is privileged to accomplish more than he thought. Success and all good wishes to him!

And what do you think caused it? Well Dr. George W. Prince, who has for the last eight months been doing special research work on diseases of infants and children, slipped into the city. Dr. Prince studied that at the University of Paris. It is to be remembered that only a few years ago that he after finishing with arts from Northampton, went abroad and took up some special work at the University of Vienna. Resumes Practice A. Whip correspondent asked the Doctor for a statement concerning the conditions in Europe and also what he think of the present politi at situation in this country. He replied, "There were so many interesting things to be said about the post war conditions that I could not afford to give the time. So far as politics is concerned, I am not particularly interested." He agreed to write a series of articles to be published in this paper on the various subjects in which he has specialized. The Doctor was accompanied on his tour by his beautiful wife, whom he married a few weeks before he departed. BEAUTY HINTS By R. Creditt-Ole Ages back, yet long before the famous Nero, into the times of Ptolomey, women found the worthwhileness of using means of adornment to attract the world of men. Like all things worth while, it has developed from a coating or covering of defects to a stage of cultivating and eliminating them. Now just because of this great growing demand for the beautiful appearance of woman, there will appear in the Chicago Whip a department conducted by Mrs. Creditt Ole of Beauty Hints, as well as all such answers that will aid in the development of the beautiful in woman physically, mentally and morally. The letters will be answered in the paper unless a self-addressed stamped envelope is sent. The Caucasian woman has many years on us in development and culture. Therefore let us band ourselves together to extend a hand of earnest assistance to our sisters who do not know what to do for their best appearance, nor where to gather information. One young lady makes a broad appeal. "How can I become beautiful? I'm so homely," Well, Miss Yates, you'll first have to write me what your defects are such as to texture of skin, features, color of hair and eyes, stature and weight.

I went into a lunch room shop the other day and sat down. A waitress came and gave me a bill of fare, then did not return for about half an hour. I asked the manager if I might be served and he told me they were too busy. I waited nearly half an hour longer—others came, were served and left, and I again requested services. He told me that they were too busy and that I would have to wait until they had time. After another twenty minutes' wait I walked out. Have I ground for a suit against the place? Yes, you have ground for a suit, but you have no proof unless you had some one with you; again, the refusal was not on account of color as far as anything you have told me is concerned; it is up to you to show that there was discrimination; that you must prove. Next time ask why and try to get a specific reason in the presence of a witness. You might start a suit; they may offer settlement. Six months ago I found my husband in a compromising position with another woman. We separated. After a time he came to me and pleaded to return, promising to be faithful. I forgave him and we have been living together since. I find now that I cannot really forgive him as I thought I could. Can I get a divorce? Not unless there is another offense. Your forgiveness and living with him again will act as a bar to divorce proceedings now. My husband is in love with one of the deaconeses of my church, and I have proof that he has been calling on her until very late hours at her home. I have written her and warned her, but it does not seem to do any good. What can I do? I love him very dearly. He says he is tired of me. Shall I leave him? I hate to give him up. Nevertheless, that is what you should do if you know that he means it. If you have patiently and lovingly tried to win his affections back and find it useless, brace up, fill your life with work and soon you will find that after all it is a sunny world, with more folks than one in it.

Solomon Dakus, former resident of Bogalusa, La., now residing in Biloxi, Miss., filed suit against the town of Bogalusa for $100,000 in the United States District Court of New Orleans. The suit was brought on behalf of Dakus by New Orleans lawyers. Last year white friends of the race at Bogalusa attempted to organize a union to be composed of colored men, hoodlums killed on destroying their efforts, killed three of these union leaders and also sought to kill Dakus, who by Providence was out, when the gang swept down upon his residence. They tore down his gate, his residence was fired on, and Mrs. Dakus frightened in hysteries, while the gang composed of city officials and legionnaires took a trunk from his home and stole $1,360 in Liberty bonds and currency. Dakus had to flee for his life, while his home was refused protection by the city. A big headline in one of the city's daily papers read: "Mexicans to Take the Place of Negroes?" Say, how did they get that way? What will they do next? The very people that raped, robbed, murdered them over in Mexico, are welcome in their midst. God grant it to be so.

Only a mental or moral objection could have expected anything different of a country from the United States. The United States has no mission to invade or interfere with the domestic affairs of Haiti, regardless of its repeated violations to the effect that Booker Washington was murdered on mission. That man did not, and never dared to presume himself capable of representing the manly and any other country. On the other hand, any experience has taught us to ever feel apprehensive and suspicious at any effort on the part of the United States government to instigate in any matter in which the general welfare of any colored race is involved.

According to eastern football experts Williams is the one bright point in Brown's lineup. In Brown's two recent games in Ireland, Williams and next with Antherst, Williams was the outstanding feature of the Brown machine. George W. Potter, an eastern sport scribe, said of his work in the Kingston game: "Ink Williams, the colored end, showed up to his standard work, his tackling being more certain and fiercer than ever. Williams seems to be the one dependable man on the team, and if he keeps up the pace that he is now setting, he stands an excellent chance to rate All-American by the end of the season." In the Amherst game, which was the first real test for the Brown eleven, the same writer said that Williams was the shining light on the line. He also said: "Of Williams it is needless to say much, except that he played his regular certain game, which is SOME game. It is a pretty sight to watch this colored end shade the interference of the opposing team and then get the man with the ball." Brown won both games, defeating Kingston 25-0, and defeating Amherst 13-0. THE NEGRO'S DILEMMA Just now any man or group of men can become reconciled to a condition which, others' consider as nil is one of the many mysteries of life and since the social status of the women of that particular group is determined by the amount of manhood evidenced by its stronger sex one can fairly well glean just what the standing of the American Negro won't be in future times. It is indeed regretable; and to the eternal distress of our ministers, politicians and our people of wealth and learning to hull the rank and life of the race into a false sense of security by teaching pseudo citizenship, equality before the law (whatever that is) and other such things as make dreamers of us all. The very fact that we'll never convince us as predatory people that we too have rights which they're bound to respect unless we make it unsafe and unprofitable to violate those rights is only too obvious. All down the ages man has plundered his telltale instincts, and we continue to do until each and every attempt of this kind is met with force to the utmost. The whys and wherefores of how this iota of manhood can be asserted is one of the simplest problems confronting us today. Why? If so, how? Shall we organize a secret army? Not at all, bloodshed on a large scale is unnecessary. A fundamental understanding of the science of government by our politicians will go a long way towards solving this seemingly intricate enigma, that is to say, if this present day parasite can ever reconcile himself to the fact that it is to his own advantage to collect the revenue and that it is to his own advantage to guard with an eternal jealousy and suspicion any other people that to do this will be not to his advantage to scramble for political power will have gone a long way toward solving what so-called thinkers often term the race problem. We too admit that there is a race problem though quarring the circle is much more complicating. With a little independent thinking by our men of training, culture and refinement these gross injustices are doomed to oblivion. On the other hand, it ten million people are incapable and cannot turnish brains enough to prevent the injustices of which we complain then this state of affairs in itself is a brand of interiority because our manhood is so far down the human plane that it is unable for us to protect women thereby giving of poverty nil as an inheritance before in the ultimate analysis of the race question it is logical to conclude that colonization is the quintessence of our physical strength in view of the fact that this condition in itself would eliminate that gypsy-like weakness as evidenced by any and all peoples who are scattered broadcams among a more numerous folk whose deep-rooted hatred and organized opposition to the weaker groups' progress is beyond all shadow of a doubt This must be done or we shall go down to that tongueless silence of the dreamless dust in justice to the stronger races of mankind whose struggle for existence has been something other than an utter failure.

When rogues fall out honest men get their due, but when labor organizations fall out it is different—Loco-motive Engineers' Journal, By E. A. Wilson HAMPTON, Va., Oct. 20.—The whistle blew and an awful thud from Light Heart foot sent the pigskin into a Hampton mit. Temple received the missile and sallied forward, Bim! Biff! Bum! He was cut down. Then business picked up. Bradby made holes large enough for an ice wagon to run through and Rigney, then Rosebury or "Ikk Wright, would drive straight on through. On they rushed. Gain after gain they made until the first touchdown. Five minutes only elapsed between that heavy old thud and the touchdown. This Hampton touchdown served as medicine for the Light Hearts. They came back strong and made the Hamptonites work. Wright sent up everything against the Light Hearts, whom the whistle saved from another touchdown by ending the first quarter. The second quarter started with a rush. Only a few minutes passed before another Hampton touchdown was made. The Light Hearts grew stronger and stronger, making the gridiron seem longer and longer. The first half ended with the Light Hearts backed to the wall, but fighting desperately. The third quarter started with "Buck" Curtis in backfield. Line plunging was his game. A fumble, however, ruined things. Hampton covered the ball and Wright made Temple show his real speed. That "Foot-on-Wing" boy brushed past the Light Hearts ends and put the ball to have little pivot. Riggs had the ball and carried it 9 yards and smiled. Then a little push formation sent Wright over for another touchdown. Here is where things got tight. There were no more touchdowns now. The Light Hearts tried formations that were not made by hand. Right shift, left shift, and everything that could be tried they tried, but the "Seasiders" held them tight. The quarter ended with the Light Hearts still in danger. Then came the last stanza. A terrible tumble, rumble, and roar—and the awful battle was on once more. Hampton had Northern in quarterback. His tenor voice rang out the signals to his team spates like a bell buoy on a troubled sea, but Northern could not coax another touchdown from them. Lineup Hampton, 19 Light Hearts, 0 Watley . R.E.

HAMPTON VICTORIOUS OVER VIRGINIA HAMPTON VICTORIOUS OVER VIRGINIA HAMPTON, Va., Oct. 20—With less than fifteen days of actual practice and handicapped by being in the act of changing from the old to the new system of football, Howard University again proved her supremacy by defeating Virginia Theological Seminary, 14-0. During the first four minutes of the game, the Virginiaians were swamped, and before they recovered Payne. Howard's plucky fullback, had crossed the goal for a touchdown. This provoked the visitors. Time after time they attempted to force their way down the field but not once did they enter the danger zone. Both teams failed in several attempts to make a forward pass. About the middle of the third quarter, the Virginians failed to make a clean kick and Howard gained the ball behind her goal line, thus making the second and last touchdown. Once again in the last quarter, Howard threatened to score, but was penalized for "off side," failed to make gain and gave the ball over to her opponent. The Virginians became sprinters. Her team showed new strength. At this critical moment, Howard was all powerful as the whistle叫ed the contest to its close. PHELPS-STOKES FUND REVIEWS ACTIVITIES PHELPS-STOKES FUND REVIEWS ACTIVITIES NEW YORK CITY, Oct. 20—The work of 10 years' activity of the Phelps-Stokes Fund was made public in a report here last week. The work was created by the will of Miss Caroline Phelps-Stokes 'for educational purposes. Announcement was made of the arrival in Liberia of the African Educational Commission, composed of American, British and African educational specialists, who will make a year's survey of Liberia, the Gold Coast, Nigeria, Kamerun, Angola, South Africa and the Belgian Congo, with a view to determining upon a program of education adapted to backward races. Various nations holding mandates over those territories under the league are co-operating in the venture. The most important work accomplished in the United States, according to the report, was the authoritative survey of 747 institutes devoted to education of the negro jointly taken and financed by the fund and by the United States Bureau of Education, a task which took five years to accomplish. "Flagrant franks were detected and many inefficient institutions were exposed," the report stated, "with the result that the charitable support which was being given to negro institutions to the extent of $3,000,000 annually, has been concentrated on trustworthy and efficient schools and colleges. Fundamental changes in institutional methods of a large number of these institutions are recommended, in order to adapt them to the needs of the pupils and the communities in which they were located."

(State Bank of Chicago) 124 East Wood Street (2nd Floor) Decatur, Illinois THE CHICAGO WHIP ORTS STOCKS HIS OWN CAR TO FOIL WAITERS NEW YORK CITY, Oct. 20.—Rather than be annoyed by dining car service and subjected to the untender mercies of waiters, Charles W. Taylor, of Maplewood, N. J., stocked a Pullman compartment with provisions for the entire trip to St. Petersburg, Fla. He left yesterday accompanied by his son, Harry, and daughter, Lettie, for his usual autumn trip to the South. Mr. Taylor for many years was an attorney in the patent department of the Philadelphia and Reading railroad. He is owner of a colony at St. Petersburg known as "The Bungalows." The hurried activities of porters who had to load Mr. Taylor's provisions into the compartment in the short time the train stopped at Maplewood resulted in a general congregation of persons waiting at the station in Mr. Taylor's direction. He was not averse to explaining the motives that actuated his advocacy of the "carry your lunch" and "antitip" movements. "I'm not going to put up with any more trouble waiting for a place in dining cars," he said. "With this stuff"—he waved his hand at the cases of food going aboard—we can eat when we feel like it, and we won't have an over-bearing waiter taking the joy out of life. I'm not going to let a coin glitter in the way of those waiters all the way down." There seemed to be no objection on the part of the Pullman conductor to admit Mr. Taylor's supplies to the train. On last Thursday evening the University Society was the guest of the Blue Triangle Club House. It was indeed a literary treat to have Prof. Huggins discourse on Negro literature and Negro music. Mesdames Jordan, Huggins and Miss Blanche Logan furnished the music which was par excellence. Next Thursday the Y. W. C. A. girls will have charge of the program.

Friends Given Preference It cannot be charged against them, said a prominent Chicagoan, that they have failed to give their various friends and lodge members from Georgia and Mississippi, the preference. The speaker said that he did not know that there were so many leading colored men in the South undiscovered, until the present campaign began. Instances were cited where the management spent hundreds of dollars to send to Georgia and Mississippi for clerical help that could easily be obtained in Chicago at a high degree of efficiency. It is also charged that whenever the committee desired a man to speak, they found it necessary to send south in order to obtain this speaker, who in many instances was inferior to speakers who could have been secured in the city of Chicago and vicinity at much less expense. A case in point is cited where a man in Tennessee was notified to make a speech in East St. Louis, Ill., when it was known in advance that he could not possibly make train connections necessary to put him at the meeting in time. Speakers could easily have been sent from Chicago to this meeting. It is said that the Tennessee man arrived on the scene after the meeting was over, but he received his voucher just the same. Press Bureau Functions A prominent citizen from New York said that had it not been that Phil H. Brown of Louisville was in charge of the Press Bureau the rank and file of the colored voters throughout the country would not have known that there was such a thing as a "Burgean" in Chicago. This man, who does not desire to have his name used, said that Phil Brown had given the committee service of a high order, worthy of praise and commendation. One man from Ohio, editor of a prominent paper, said he could not understand the National Committee's point of view in selecting men from Southern states, who themselves were not capable of conducting a campaign, but who did not know the method of procedure incidental thereto. He asked how "voteless" men, who never voted, could tell men who were accustomed to voting, how to vote. He said that if the colored vote went to Harding it would do so in spite of the mismanagement of his colored director. Loyal Adherents Ignored It was stated several weeks ago by a man who claims to speak for the Johnson-Howard coterie, that no Illinois man who had been known as a Thompson man would be given any recognition, regardless of his ability, in the conduct of the campaign. It seems that so far this program has been religiously carried out. It is claimed that the heirs so faithful in carrying out this program that whenever it became absolutely necessary to have a speaker on short notice, the officials themselves, leaving the routine busi- 10,000 AGENTS WAIT TO SELL NOVA DAME Agents Get 50% Nova Dame's Hair Grower is given you have used three jars and you need results, your money will be refund The Nova Dame's Cold Cream Creme on (Day Creme) will clear the Remove black-heads and beautify Learn the Nova Dame System Nova Dames' Hair Grower...52c Nova Dames Pressing Oil...52c FROM AGENTS, DRUGGIST Addr NOVA DAME COLLEGE 3832 So.

Another Editor's Views Another prominent newspaper man in speaking of the situation said he was not surprised at the failure of the bureau to properly function, claiming that the men themselves at the head of the bureau were political closed hires with this homely statement: "You cannot put a hungry hound to watch a meat-house." Budget Now Overdrawn It is learned from reliable sources that the budget is now overdrawn, and that the bureau has been practically cut off by the National Committee from financial support. It seems to be a mystery to many where this money has gone, and what benefit it has done the Republican party. It has been charged that fictitious checks have been drawn for speeches that were never made, and that the money has found its way into the pockets of the "big" men of the combination. This charge, however, from all evidence that has been obtained, cannot be substantiated.

Bullets Corroborate Story. Dr. Rhinehart, the coroner's physician, stated to one of the relatives of the slain men that shots were fired from behind and that others were fired into the prostrate bodies. The chief of police of Indiana Harbor said that he knew nothing of the triple killing. The bodies of the boys were carried to the county hospital in Hammond, Ind, and before the mortally wounded had passed away they attempted to make statements but were prevented by the attendants in the hospital. New Post Mortem The new evidence has created quite a deal of excitement in local circles and a new post mortem will be demanded and the case reopened. Atty, F, L. Barnett has been retained.

S. to Probe Hattian Atrocities (Continued from page 1) and prevented these reports from reaching the proper destination. What has been charged by the Haitians concerning the brutality of the American marines in Haiti has been charged by every other Latin-American country where this country has been called upon to send American protection. A case in point, the Danish West Indies, sought or occasioned to bring to the attention of the American government the brutal and improper conduct of men of the American combat war stationed in the Indian waters. The matter was always referred to a committee for investigation, who either suppressed their indings, or treated the matter with official indifference. Women Assaulted. In these reports, alleged evidence has been submitted showing that numerous native women have been the victims of hostile and licentious assaults by men wearing the American uniform in foreign ports of weaker nations. It is hoped that this present investigation will be conducted with critical secrecy with an eye singular to the restoration and respectability due to the government by the men who wear the uniform. Over 3,000 Slain. During the five years of American occupation of Haiti, according to the reports submitted to the Navy Dept. by Major-General George Barnett, 3,250 Haitians have been slain indiscriminately by American marines. So far, two privates in the Marine corps have been brought to trial, and one commander has been declared insane. It is highly probable that these two privates were responsible for 3,000 murders. Their trial seems to have been the most difficult to wash the blood, and make safe and secure the position of others who were responsible for the brutal and inhuman conduct of Americans on the island American Banks in Scandal. In addition to the treatment of Haitian natives by the marines, their economic and commercial independence, through sinister influences and political intrigue, has been throttled by certain banking interests of New York City, acting as their fiscal agents. In this case the much oversused expression "self-determination" was seemingly forgotten in political and governmental transactions with the Haitian government. Haitians Economic Slaves. The banking houses in question, from various reports obtained from the Haitian government, sought to place even the Haitian officials in the position of economic slaves. The officials of the island at times were unable to obtain even their salaries through the channel designated as their financial source by the American government.

THE CHICAGO WHIP for this procedure was that Haitian officials were too antagonistic to the American program for the island republic, and they were told that this condition would obtain until they assumed a less antagonistic attitude. Press Reports Force Investigation. Mr. Johnson's reports on Haitian conditions were widely circulated throughout the country by the Colored press, causing such wide-spread comment that the American government was compelled to take the action it now undertakes in investigating the now famous "Haitian Atrocities." FLORIDA JUDGE WOULD LYNCH WHIP EDITOR FLORIDA JUDGE WOULD LYNCH WHIP EDITOR MIAMI, Fla., Oct. 20—The presidential fight in this section has simmered down to a question of which party will oppress the Negro the most in case its candidate is victorious at the November elections. The voters of this district are thoroughly tired of Wilson's wiggle-wobble program, and would join the Republican ranks were it not for the slight recognition that the colored man receives there. "Judge" Redmond B. Gautier, one of the most fiery of the fire-eating Southerners, made his most venomous speech here after reading an editorial in the CHICAGO WHIP. Among other things the judge said: "Nigger, nigger, nigger! is the only issue locally between the republicans and the democrats, but it is an all-important one." I quoted from editorials in a negro paper, published in Chicago, which he denominated the "Mecca of Negroes," which made such demands as: "The Negro must have social equality." "By social equality we mean intercommunion of races, intermarriages, between races, companionable association between all people." If the seoundrel would come to Dead county and write that, shouted Judge Gautier, "Wed lynch him!" And his hearers roared their approval.

Calls Orator a Parasite The Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Community League held its first annual meeting at Salem Baptist Church, 30th and La Salle, Sunday, October 17th, and filled that spacious edifice, said to accommodate eighteen hundred people. The choir in white robes and the Juvenile department arrayed in red, black and green, the black cross nurses robed in white veils and white dresses, the legions stepping with martial tread decorated with armlets of the colors marching to the tune of "Onward Christian Soldiers" were indeed a beautiful sight to behold. After the regular songs were sung, Mr. F. O. Haines was presented and spoke with emphasis and reason concerning the practicability of the movement and the unreasonableness of those who made it a business to oppose. Mrs. Davis, the lady president, presented the cause in no uncertain terms and places an emphatic denial to the charge that was an Abyssinian movement but showed clearly it was the best place yet put forward for the advancement and organization of the Negroes of the world. Ex-Congressman Murray ew word eloquence gave way on this occasion and the high chancellor of the U. N. I. A. who after several days' visit here leaves the city for New York to take up the duties of that office beginning November 1st. With words of wisdom and convincing argument he instructed, entertained and convinced many that this was the movement that every Negro should join if he had only one sixteenth of Negro blood coursing through his veins. The last speaker was W. A. Wallace, the president of the Chicago Division of the organization, who in scathing words of denunciation, arraigned Col. Roscoe Conklin Simmons and his paper for its attack and the statement concerning the Chicago Division. He said in part: "What has the Col. given to the Negro in return for the money he has received from them from all parts of the country? What constructive program has he produced or presented that will in the least change the status of the Negro in the United States, without even considering our brothers of other parts of the world. Our officers are paid high salaries for a purpose that they will not have to be traveling over the white man's money and thus obligate him to him. But that they may be free to do our work for us untrammeled, by any financial embassment and can afford to carry out our program without playing the part of modern edition of an end man.

We have got to have constructive programs. We must have practical programs and means and men to carry them out. Men with sufficient sense and courage to stand up and see the interest of the race beyond the 50 and 75 cents per for admission to hear a lot of dope that amounts to nothing. The Garvey movement takes the children and trains them to love and respect their own and learn the history of their race, not to hate anybody but to lift up their heads and look the world in the face. It takes the women and teaches them the duties, of life and instills in them a hope for the future of their children. It takes the men and trains them to be manly and lawful, loyal to their race and country and respects all to the women and protectors of them. Has Col Simmons any program to offer to compare with this? Three times I went near the Race. The Man of the Horse. Three times I was dissappointed like thousands of others have been. The general conclusion I found has been "Rosecoe is a good entertainer, but there is nothing to him." We need leaders who have something to them. When people hear the Hon. Marcus Garvey they say he is a man of power, deep thought, sincerity and vision. Whom will you have: A man who can bring things to pass, or one who will simply bow and say, 'Please, Mr. White Man, watch my brother; he is about to do something for himself?' Away with such patronizing stuff. Be men and women. Your present is with you, but your future is before you." Fights To Death On Roof NEW YORK CITY. Oct. 20—Rafael Cotin, a native of San Domingo, fought to his death with a policeman, Patrolman Martin Gill, on the top of a building on oth Ave., here late last week. Hundreds watched the fight from the streets. Finally a sailor intervened and aided the policeman by striking Cotin on the head. The policeman then took advantage of the situation and shot Cotin in the stomach. Cotin fell to the street and died a few minutes later. Shoes and Gents' Furnishings DEMOCRATS PLAYING ALDERMAN FETZER FOR TO RACE HATRED THE BENCH By Phil H. Brown One of the best evidences of the prevailing fact that the Democrats are whipped is the publication of the miserable circular by the Ohio Executive Committee of that party trying to stir up racial hatred. This is the insult that the Democratic Executive Committee of Ohio offers to the intelligence of the entire American electorate: "Ohioans should remember that the time has come when we must handle this problem in somewhat the same way as the South is handling it, and in such a way bring greater contentment to both whites and Negroes. We should remember what history tells us of the dark days when Negroes controlled the government in the South, the enormous expenditures and debts incurred, the indigencies heaped upon white women and children, the vicious attempt of the South Carolina Negro legislature to give every Negro forty acres of land and a mule." "Men and women of Ohio! Rally to the ballot box and give such a verdict as will forever rid Ohio of this menace to yourselves and your children." This pronunciamento will be repudiated by every well-meaning citizen in the United States, it matters not whether he is white or black, woman or man, Jew or Gentle. Chas. Barret For Board of Review FOR CARVIN SERVICES member of the Board of Essays can candidate, 100 re-election, delivered an interesting address Sunday afternoon at the Unity Club, 3140 Indiana avenue. Ms. Barrett briefly apologe the history of the family, showing that upon the question of shurah rights they have always stood for a square deal for every man regardless of his racial identity. The speaker urged the university support of the public interest society, headed by a man of the philippe type of dignified statesmanship that America has ever produced. His leadership, says the speaker toyami and devotion to principles are unquestionably above reproach. His broad views are summarized in the Republican platform will take their place in history as the most state-maplike and literary productions contributed by any American in public life. Urged Crowe and Reigheimer's Election. Mr. Barrett says that it is essential and imperative that every possible effort be made to assure the election of Frank S. Reigemeyer for County Judge and Judge Robert E. Crowne for State's Attorney. The office of these two officials in its conduct and procedure affect the very life and existence of the plan people of the city and county. To them we must look for honest and compassionate protection of our votes when we ought for the prosecution of those who would dare to nullify our right of suffrage. Mr. Barrett has served two years a member of the Board of County and six regarded as the most capable and efficient member of the board. He can be relied upon to honestly safeguard the rights of sill the people and to give a just account of his stewardship to his constituents. Look at tongue!

Fetzer of the Seventh Ward was recently nominated by the Republican Party for judge of the Municipal Court. The alderman is serving his second term and is regarded as one of the ablest men in the City Council. He has held the chairmanship of a number of important committees not only with efficiency but with recognized skill. Alderman Bill Lillard of the Alderman in Ottawa, Illinois, and has lived in this city for 24 years, having been in the active practice of law 20 years of this time. Member of Many Societies. Alderman Fetzer is a member of the Chicago Bar Association, the Illinois State Bar Association, the Lawyers Associations, the Elks and a Mason of high rank. His record as reviewed by the public press and other civic bodies receives the highest commendation and is ample justification for the support of every Republican voter in the November election. Alderman Fetzer has the endorsement of Mayor William Hale Thompson and enjoys the confidence of the prominent colored men of the city. He has been associated in the City Council with Alderman Anderson and Alderman Jackson, both of whom regard him as excellent judicial timber. Ald. Anderson Urges His Election. Ald. Anderson Urges His Election. In a recent interview with a representative of the Chicago Whip, in speaking of Alderman Fetzer, Alderman Louis B. Anderson said, "The election to the Municipal Court丁 Alderman Fetzer will tie the judiciary a loose connection, public servant, one who will hold involve the rights of everyone, regardless of his racial identity. I command him in the strongest terms to the members of my group with the assurance that they will find in him a fair and impartial judgment." MORRIS ELLER'S ABILITY DEMENDS HIS RE-ELECTION O. F.

From this evidence, which comes from a reliable source, Mr. Eller played the game on the square with our candidate for judge and there is no occasion for misrepresentation of the facts when the truth is so easily available. During the period of the last five years as City Scaker, Mr. Eller has introduced the practical innovation of office, the net response to which thousands of citizens of Chicago and Cook county have learned generous benefits.

He is a close friend of Mayor William Hale Thompson, Ward Committeeman Edward H. Wright, Alderman Anderson and Jackson. SCHULMAN FOR MUNICIPAL JUDGE 1930 Its highly imperative that every effort possible be made to secure the election of the deserving men who are candidates on the Republican ticket for the Municipal Court Bench Among these candidates, Atty Joseph W. Schulman, 3258 Douglas blvd, was selected by the Republican voters in the Republican primaries as one of their choice for Municipal Court Bench. Atty Schulman is a young man of rare experience and exceptional ability as a lawyer. He will bring to the judiciary both energy and experience aided by vigor and vitality, both of which are essential elements in the success of the American judiciary. Product of Chicago. The candidate was born in this city, and is a product of Chicago's school life. Since his entry into politics, he has at all times stood for the higher and nobler things affecting the civic advancement of our city.

THE CHICAGO WHIP Cox Calls the Republicans the"Afro-American Party" MARION, O., Oct. 20.—Gov. Cox made a characteristic Democratic speech from the rear platform of his train here last Friday when he referred to the Republican party as the "Afro-American Party." He also laid the Chicago riots at the door of Mayor Thompson, of Chicago, Among other things, he said: "The Afro-American party, whose hyphenated activity has attempted to stir up troubles among the negroes upon false claims that it can bring social equality, thereby subjecting unsuspecting colored people to the counter attacks of those fomenting racial prejudice and endangering them to the bloody race riots which distinguished cities like Chicago, citadel of William Hale Thompson, one of the supporters of Senator Harding Through those appeals to prejudice and through northern invasion of doubtful states, there is invited loss of the true progress of the colored people." HAMPTON RECEIVES GIFT FROM COLUMBIA HAMPTON RECEIVES GIFT FROM COLUMBIA WASHINGTON. D. C., Oct. 20.—Word is received that the trustees of Columbia University, New York City, have authorized, offering as a gift to Howard University, Washington, D.C., such selects from the duplicate volumes and other materials in its architectural department as would be suited to the purposes of the architectural department of the Howard University. In May last, the Association of College Schools of Architecture of the United States and Canada held its annual conference in Washington, D. C. Howard University, having recently organized a Department of Architecture—the first among Negro Colleges to institute such a professional course—was invited to send a representative. The president, Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, nominated Prof William A. Hazel, head of the department. The gift from theability is out of the results of the interest awakened in Howard's new department. This valuable collection of numerous volumes, and about five hundred mounted photographs and drawings, historic buildings in Europe, has just been received. Many courtesies have also been extended the Architectural Department of Howard University by Professors Warren P. Laird of the University of Pennsylvania, and Clarence A. Marrion, a law professor, president and secretary of the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture. So It Does "Pa, what is meant by a dead language?"

It came out in a late meeting of business men that it was possible to secure a charter and that charter would be secured as soon as possible. The intention of the incorporators is to have an institution for the people by the people and of the people; this will make the institution a public affair and will not tend to glorify any one arrogant individual. Common People to Be Made Welcome. The plan of the new institution is to make the common people feel as if it was theirs and that they can have access to the president at all reasonable times and that no silk stocking aristocracy is to destroy the morale of the supporters.

This quotation has been held sacred and proverbial by the light-minded of the present age. But like most proverbs and platitudes it cannot bear close analysis. It is essentially false. A thing of beauty is not a joy forever. It may be a joy while it remains beautiful, but it must fade, wither, decay and in the end succumb to the ravages of time. It cannot remain beautiful forever, since it does not live forever. Beauty culture, a fad of the day, is holding an all-important place in the life of colored Americans. They desire flowing and wavy hair, roseate cheeks and immaculate nails. They desire to be beautiful. Many schools of beauty culture are thriving and reaping comfortable fortunes off of this desire. The most successful business institutions in the race are promoting modern methods of beautification and attractiveness. Since beauty is not everlasting, since it does not carry any real benefit to posterity, we are inclined to think that colored Americans are allowing themselves to become one-sided on this question and are neglecting brain culture which is more lasting and is more beneficial to unborn generations, the present generation and to the world in general. The colored Americans are more needful of trained and efficient brains than any other group in Christendom. They are more persecuted and disorganized than others and stand in serious need of culture in the real substantial things of existence. The brain is the distinctive faculty of mankind and should be nurtured and improved upon above all other human attributes. It is a direct reflection upon the race to allow its institutions of beauty culture to outrank its institutions of brain culture. It directly reflects upon the quality of colored American civilization to be able to boast of economic prowess in no other line but beauty factories. The race cannot follow the avant-garde or more powerful groups as these other groups beautify themselves but have superior economic astuteness in other lines. The race must eschew the vanishing and evanescent and cling to the everlasting and eternal benefits. GIVE US MORE BRAIN CULTURE! PROFITEERING IN PROFESSIONS For two hundred and fifty years the American Negro has pathetically, helplessly and silently been "drawers of water and hewers of wood." In such capacities they have been the means of making the white man rich while he "remained poor indeed." But with the coming of emancipation and the added prejudices and hatreds thereto, the Negro was forced to make money for himself. He was forced into certain industries and trades, forced to establish and control and own these enterprises himself. For example, Negroes were forced to become barbers and open barber shops. They were forced to become undertakers and open undertaking establishments. They were forced to become restauranteurs and open restaurants. They were forced into these occupations and into these proprietorships because white men refused to perform the attendant services for the Negro, because the tasks, even though profitable, were "distasteful." Resulting, therefore, not so much from the black man's business ingenuity as from the sharp-pointed prejudice of the white man we have in Chicago alone 79 restaurants, 20 undertaking establishments and 86 barber shops owned and controlled by Negroes. Regardless of the cause, this is a credit to the Negro. Prejudices, however, continued on its wild rampage and has brought its consonant advantages and disadvantages. It has forced Negroes into the professional world and forced the race to patronize them, particularly in the South where white dentists and doctors refuse to attend colored patients. This field of endeavor was thrown open to the Negro and he has made good in it. In the North the Negro has taken advantage of war time exigencies, has spread his professional institutions and expected to find 100 per patronage from those of his race who were in his community. Without justifying or going into any argument pro or con segregation we offer a proposition that the general economic status of the race has driven us to and that is the Negro MUST PATRONIZE HIS OWN BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONS TO THE POINT OF SACRIFICE. It has been demonstrated to the world and to the Negro himself that physicians, surgeons and dentists are capable of rendering the highest service with the greatest degree of efficiency at reasonable prices. In Chicago there are 62 colored dentists who are forced to share their deserved and rightful patronage with "quacks" who advertise lies, distort the truth, deceive the people and filch the sheckles from their pockets with avaricious fingers. The ignorance of the colored American has been a source of profiteering in the North and it behooves us at this time to begin a campaign of enlightenment and truth from the housetops. Black solidarity, black unity and black cooperation must be begun here in Chicago, the Mecca of Negro progress. Listen not to the wail of the reactionary who cries "WAIT!"

A man's mouth is the gateway to his physical self. Just what the mouth has meant to men cannot be appreciated unless they are deprived of it. "Eyes are the windows of the soul." Mouths are the gateway to the heart. A well trained and well cared for mouth is a blessing to organized society and a treasure to the possessor. A diseased and neglected mouth is a menace to society and a curse to its possessor. The ordinary conception of a mouth with most people is that it is an organ necessary to speech or the mastication of food; it all depending upon whether or not the person prefers to talk or eat. The country has been aroused recently by the spread of disease and the general decline in health of the individual as an individual and the nation at large. Public health is more and more becoming a problem of national concern and every agency which can in any way aid in the general campaign for the improvement of public health and the enlightenment of the individual is being marshalled to assist in bringing the rank and file to a realization of the lurking dangers which make the uninformed a ready prey to disease and death. No agency is more indispensable than the practice of GOOD DENTISTRY. The profession owes a debt to public health which cannot be paid by services rendered to an individual clientele. The staggering and appalling conditions which have grown into almost positive menace because of ignorance on the part of individuals both in the care of their teeth and in the selection of dentists for the treatment of their teeth has made it a duty for every person to AT ONCE become informed upon the dangers of POOR AND CHEAP DENTISTRY, which is advertised cheaply and performed cheaply and poorly. The condition of the teeth has a direct bearing upon the general health of the whole body and the medical profession now demands that a DENTAL examination be part of every medical examination before the fitness of an individual may be determined. Obscure maladies are responding to the treatment of prepared and scientific dentists which have baffled the skill of the medical profession. Thousands of dollars are being spent by colored people because of the lack of rudimentary information concerning their teeth. Ill health, disease and even disfigurement have been the lot of many an unsuspecting colored person who did not know WHO was a GOOD DENTIST or WHERE they were located.

THIS ONE W UNCLE THIS ONE WAS A REAL UNCLE TOM (From the Charlotte, N. C., Observer, Oct. 16) To the Editor of The Observer: It seems strange to me to see so many people scrambling to get a chance to vote in the November election. Many of our negro men have gone wild to go up to the ballot box to give in their vote since woman suffrage has been voted in. They have been told by some of our leading colored men to stay away from the polls, while others of our race have told them to go up and vote. Some of our leading magazines and papers have urged the negro to vote, while others have urged him not to vote. I would know at this time that shall the negro who have not reached the sophomore class in college? He has no right to his own opinion in my estimation—therefore, it seems as though the leading men of the race should have a national meeting and send out an advice to the colored people that they can stand back of and protect.

If there should be one or a few leaders who do not endorse the policies shaped by the national body, let them shut their mouths and say nothing. Politics are interesting to the man who does not vote as much as it is to him who votes, but it is a question as to whether the man who does not vote gets as much benefit from them as he who votes. As far as the negro is concerned, it seems probable. I could be glad to send The Observer a chapster the cause of Cox for President, but I wouldn't for the money: I would be glad to vote for Harding for President, but I haven't the time to go to the polls. Therefore, I will stay home and try to work out some plan whereby I may be able to present to my race from time to time a way in which they may become better citizens. Let the negro voters of North Carolina, both men and women, stand by the hundreds of wayward boys and girls who are located in the rural dis- THE WEEK'S BEST EDITORIAL THE WEEK'S BEST EDITORIAL FROM THE NEGRO WORLD Senator Harding was asked at Oklahoma City on Saturday, October 9: "Do you or do you not favor race segregation? Do you or do you not favor separate cars for the white and black races, separate schools, restaurants, amusement places, etc." His answer was "I have not come from old Ohio to tell you how to solve your peculiar problems of the South. Somebody asked what I would do about the racial question. I cannot come and answer that for you. That is too serious a problem for some of us to solve who do not know it as you do in your daily lives. But I would not be fitted to be President of the United States if I did not tell you in the South precisely the same thing I would say in the North. I want you to know that I believe in equality before the law. That is one of the guarantees of the American Constitution. You cannot give one right to a white man and deny the same right to a black man but while I stand for that particular principle, I want you in Oklahoma to know that does not mean, and I do not ever intend that it mean, that the white man and the black man must be made to experience the enjoyment of their rights in each others company." It seems to us that the distinguished standard bearer of the Grand Old Party is rather ambiguous there. We were pleased to read that he said; "I want you to know that I believe in equality before the law. That is one of the guarantees of the American Constitution. You cannot give one right to a white man and deny the same right to a black man." Economic equality and equality before the law are separate and distinct from social equality and the South knows that. She only confuses them in order to pull the wool over the eyes of the North.

To the Editor of the Whip: Under the auspices of the Chicago Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, there was held in various parts of the city four big mass meetings in the interest of furthering their cause; and advancing their status as a race in conformity to other racial groups of the world. After witnessing [such strange silence on the past] of the abuse in neglecting or restraining to chronicle such important events for the uplift of our people that has taken place in our city in such glorious manner during this week, it has shaken the property and confidence in the Defender which I and many others possessed in no small degree. The Defender, under Negro ownership, edited by Negroes, read in the man by Negroes, and published in the interest of Negroes] should chronicle all news of importance and current happenings of the day, their loyal readers are entitled to nothing less than this, and particularly news of events calculated and designed to function to their advantage and progress. Whether the editor or editors agree with the organization or its propaganda or not, there is such a thing in journalism if it is honest, as news items, with or without comment pro or con, and it is an outstanding duty any newspaper owes their readers, and there is no intelligent reason for suppression of news by any paper, white or black, pertaining to the uplift and advancement of a people, from whom the Defender is depending on for support and whom they feign to serve. It cannot be that the Defender was ignorant of these big meetings being held in a stone's throw of their office, with prominent speakers, men and women, inspiring and electrifying their audiences, and appealing to the men, women and children of the race to carry on to unlimited heights. If this be true, then the Defender is guilty of criminal negligence of their duty, and void of sincerity in serving the people who have, and are now making it possible for their very existence. As I turn through the pages of the Chicago Whip, the progressive Negro weekly that reflects through its columns the aspirations, the hope, the DOUGLAS SAYS PEOPLE MUST RULE Sunday afternoon before a large and enthusiastic audience Hon.

But what he is really trying to do is to deny the humanity of the Negro, to deny that he is a man the same as other men. But the Negro record in the college and universities of the world, his record as a workman and accumulator of wealth in America, his record in building the Panama Canal, and his record as a soldier in the war waged by this country and on the blood-stained battlefields of France, Flanders and Mesopotamia has more than proved that the Negro is made of the same clay as the rest of mankind. But here is where the ambiguity of Senator Harding on the "Jim Crow" issue comes in. He says that he be lieves in equality before the law and then says "I do not ever intend that it means that the white man and the black man must be made to experience the enjoyment of their rights in each other' company." This last statement seems to sanction the various Jim Crow law which have been passed by various Southern state legislatures. And we would like to ask Senator Harding "How can equality before the law exist hand in hand with the iniquitous" "Jim Crow" car, which means that the black man is not equal to the white man before the law? It looks as if the well meaning Senator has fallen into the trap that the South has prepared to ensnare the friends and well wishers of the Negro and that trap is the confusing the enjoyment of citizenship rights with the enjoyment of social amenities and social diversions. At present, it looks as if Senator Harding believes in equality before the law in principle but not in practice. He has made so many noble declarations regarding justice and humanity that we would be sorry to see him hand down his colors—W. H. F. psychology of the new Negro, I find on the front and sixth pages of this representative sheet, news items giving to their large body of readers the mass meetings in descriptive form held in the various parts of the city and living up to the duty of chronicling progressive things being done by our people. When I later scanned the pages of the Chicago Defender, "the world's greatest weekly," the paper that has recently boosted its price to ten cents per copy, strange to say, but as I glanced through the Defender observantly, not one line could be spared to tell their readers of the great meetings that had been going on in their midst for four nights, meetings held for them and in their interest. On turning to the editorial page of the Defender after my disappointment, there I found an abundance of space had been given Mr. Harding and excerpts from his various speeches chronicled. It is alleged he told the South that they must solve their own problem, and this we know they have been doing for three years. But our lavery, lynching distranchissement and other atrocious crimes characteristic of the South. Mr. Harding, the leader of white men, was given much publicity. Dr. Eason, the newly elected leader of black men, was not given one line. This man elected and selected by representative Negroes of the world. Can it be possible that the Defender in their latter years of success, has become indifferent and negligent of the duty they owe their readers whom they should serve, even though they dislike the N.I.M. Government. This of course is their personal privilege, but however, it becomes their duty to serve their patrons, honestly and sincerely by publishing such news of so much import and relative to the advancement of their race. I wonder what plausible excuse can be offered for this deathlike silence? Is it indifferent negligence? Is it premeditated and criminal suppression of news propaganda beneficial to millions of Negroes? Was it done to satisfy some personal animosity? Or can it be the Defender knows nothing of this movement? J. JACKSON TILFORD, Publicist, 3831 S.

To Curb Rent Hogs. He said that one of the most harmful enemies of the people today was the rent hog, and that these same rent hogs are trying to protect their fat prots by putting their tools into office. "If I am sent to the legislature this time I will introduce a bill making it a criminal offense for any landlord to charge rents that will net him more than the legal rate of interest, which is 6 per cent. If this is done, and I believe it can be, your rents will be charged." He challenged his opponents for a debate on the various issues now involved in the campaign. Can Elect Three. Three Republicans have been nominated in the Third Senatorial District. It is possible for the colored people to elect all of them, but according to the statement the bosses Democrats in order to defeat a competent young man who has served the people instead of the bosses.

It is the first act which starts us on this sentient existence. It is the last act that will send us floundering into the ocean of the manmade world. But because of the spontaneity and simplicity of the act we pass up its importance in a wonted thoughtlessness A. B. B. which is at once tragic in its result. Who shall dare to deny the fact that the flagrant neglect of the primordial function of breathing with its twin suicidal mania "fear of fresh air and draught" are the reasons for which humanity pays an annual tribute of nearly a quarter of a million of lives to preventable diseases all sacrifices upon the horrible altar of ignorance you have left. If you keep on breathing you can keep. If you breathe forever you could live forever, and yet how many, if any, recognize the profound significance of this fact and make a conscious effort at breathing? The ninety cubic centimeters or tidal air in the respiratory act are not enough to overcome the pulmonary troubles which are eating out the vitals of so many and it is my fond belief that a thorough course of lessons in the science of breathing is the only therapeutic remedy for the dread pulmonary TB. We have already recognized the benefit of fresh air and the open air treatment for tuberculosis. But why no system of breathing is taught with all its vitalizing effects? I am at a loss to conceive of the food and water are pleasurable must be considered foolhardiness in the highest degree, and why one should die for want of a proportion of the sea of air in which we live and move and have our being must be attributed to lack of knowledge of what proper breathing means to us if there is any degree of vitaliveness manifesting in the individual. Breathing not only takes into the body the vital energies at large but when employed to capacity exercise every cell in the respiratory organ and by the internal pressure exerted tends to develop the chest wall and produce relaxation of the constricted muscles so painfully obvious in all tubercular cases. The diminished excursion present in all these trousers due to thoracic inertia with its concomitant dysfunction. No lung used to capacity can accommodate the Tubercula Bacilli; and no chest wall heaving out and in with full capacity breathing can long remain constricted. It is a fact that not alone the mass of humanity have been apathetic but also the man of science whose life work is to relieve suffering has equally ignored this life's fundamental act. We must teach more and treat less and waft aloft the flaring torch "Breath is Life."
