PAROLED SLAYER ATTEMPTS 2nd MURDER Do You Want a Good Job? Do You Want a Nice Room? Read Classified Want Ads Room Rent Ads Page 7 VICKSBURG, Miss. Feb. 9.—Passengers on the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley Railroad early Friday morning were regaled by the sight of an unidentified colored man, whose dead body was seen dangling from a tree on the side of the railroad track. No details are known about the lynching. Several autos were seen in the neighborhood during the night. It is thought they brought the victim from a distance. SUNBART READY TO QUIT; DOFFS STAR & UNIFORM SUNBART READY TO QUIT; DOFFS STAR & UNIFORM When the official summons comes from, Chief Fitzmarz' office for Policeman Jonas Sunbart. 4847 State St. to appear and defend himself of serious charges died against him, his relatives say that his uniform and star will be found, but nothing else. Sunbart has left for parts unknown. Sunbart's latest alleged offense is probably his last on the Chicago police department. Several times before Sunbart has incurred, either rightfully or wrongly, the displeasure of the authorities. Last March he was discharged, but succeeded in gaining a restatement. The present charge comes from Mrs. Helen Burkhardt (white) 1472 Bryant Pl. She alleges that Sunbart forced his way into her apartment and ordered William Stoll (white), her companion there, to leave the house. The next day Mrs. Burkhardt appeared and tiled formal charges against the policeman. Sunbart's side of the story, as told by his relatives, is that the policeman had a rendezvous with the woman at her home, that Stoll was merely a hanger-on at her house, and left by agreement when the policeman appeared there. When Sunbart prepared to leave, it is said that the Burkhardt woman forbade his going, claiming that he was going to meet "some other woman." Sunbart insisted on going, and it is said that the Burkhardt woman filed her charges for revenge. Whichever story is true, Sunbart has evidently concluded that they have at last "gotten him." He has given up the idea of being a policeman. Sunbart has been a resident of Chicago for 33 years, a member of the "Old Eighth," and an overseas veteran. DEL ROBERTS IN A ME MORIAL TO CONGRESS Hon. Aleibert H. Roberts at the opening of the 52nd General Assembly introduced a resolution petitioning Congress to pass the House bill now in Congress entitled "A Bill having for its object and purpose the assurance to persons within the jurisdiction of every state the equal protection of laws and to punish the crime of lynching." The petition calls attention to the prevalence of lynching in this country and calls the members of Congress from Illinois to support the bill. TRIES TO AROUSE DEAD WITH ALARM CLOCK M1AM1. Fla., Feb. 9.—Joseph Thomas, an aged "spiritualist" is being held to the Grand Jury on charges of receiving money under false pretenses. Thomas took $15 from the wife of a deceased man, and the dead man's watch. The "spiritualist" then took the dead man's watch and an alarm in his gun, and buried the man's watch in his gun, knowing that the watch did not tick loud enough, nor did the alarm clock ring. The dead man slept on. DURHAM, N. C. Feb. 9—Dr. James E. Shepard, president of the National Training School, of this city, was elected Grand Master of the Masonic fraternity in this state last week. VOL. 117.—NO. 7 COWHIDE USED ON ENTIRE COMPANY COWHIDE USED ON ENTIRE COMPANY Southerners Use Imagined Insult As Excuse For Unheard of Atrocity. SHREVEPORT, La., Feb. 9—Details of the manner in which Benbow's Darktown Frolics were stripped nude and beaten are beginning to come to light. The theatrical company known as Benbows Darktown Frolics was in this city for the purpose of staging a show. During the afternoon preceding the performance Benbow's wife was out for a walk with her dog. The dog snapped at a white child, whose mother related the incident to her husband. A mob was quickly formed. In the meantime the troupe was making preparations to flee from the scene. They were overtaken near Mansfield, stripped of their clothing, and beaten nude. Those in the company who were whipped were Billy Bradford, Marion Bradford, Archie Majors, Frank Butter, Japrise Adams, Oscar Adams, Rose Whitting, and Belle Waters. CARRIE JOHNSON IS RELEASED ON BAIL Fixed at $5,000 by the Court and Is Furnished by the National Race Congress, Rev. W. H. Jernagin President. Washington, D. C., February 9.—Carrie Johnson, the 18-year-old girl who has been in confinement since the race riot in this city, July 21, 1919 was convicted of manslaughter January 13, 1921, and the case of her father, Benjamin Johnson, who was also charged with the killing of Detective Wilson, was nole prossed. The government had difficulty to prove that the defendant fired the shot that killed Detective Wilson. The circumstances, as shown by the witnesses for the prosecution intending to convict the accused, were purely circumstantial. The charge of manslaughter found was a compromise from a layman's point of view, as the indictment was for murder in the first degree. The squashing of the indictment found by the grand jury against the father, Benjamin Johnson, for the same crime, in the presence of the jury during the trial of the girl, was an unusual proceeding. The defense made by Attorneys B. L. Gaskins and T. M. Watson was masterly, and they deserve words of commendation. The argument for a new trial will be made at the first opportunity. A bond of $5,000 was requested by the court or the girl remain in jail. The National Race Congress furnished the money to secure bond and court records in this case. The Race Congress is determined to render every assistance possible, to save this young and promising girl from serving a sentence for a crime of which we believe her innocent. The Race Congress calls attention to the fact that out of all the shooting and killing and general disorder of the Washington riot of July 21, 1919, this young girl, who swears she never had a revolver in her hand, and none has been produced at the trial, is the only one, white or colored, to be convicted of even manslaughter. Attention is called to the fact that the National Race Congress has never taken public money for this girl, because attorneys thought it unwise to do so. But now the conditions have changed, and the National Race Congress, in the interest of our womanhood, has, with the full approval of her attorneys, issued a call for assistance in the defense of this innocent colored girl. We are also asking every true and loyal member of the race to send to the office of the executive secretary, Henry J. Callis, 619 M street northwest, Washington, D. C., for any information desired concerning the National Race Congress. Also report to this office any money which may be secured as a contribution to help in the work of uplifting the race.

Michigan Avenue, through its attorney, paid to Miss Lillian Beale, secretary to the superintendent of the United Charities, $100.00 and costs of court for its refusal to serve her on August 28th, 1921. Attorney Violette N. Anderson who represented Miss Beale in the two days' contest before Judge Adams of the Municipal Court has been assured by the firm, representing the defendant that all who apply for service in the future at Spohrs will receive equal and courteous treatment at all of its shops and from all of its employees. LINTON TO ASK FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS LINTON TO ASK FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS Second Ward Voters Disfranchised The refusal of The Election Commissioners to put the name of William C. Linton upon the ballot to be voted upon on February 2nd for Alderman of The Second Ward for no other reason than to gratify the tyrannical appetite of one Louis B. Anderson has resulted in a practical disfranchisement of the electorate of The Second Ward. This Mr. Anderson is unalterably and uncompromisingly opposed to competition from ambitious, upright and intelligent young men. It is said that his record for getting unholy and unearned gold through the power of the people's office is beginning to reflect upon him to such an extent that he merely wanted to serve one more term and quit public life before he was retired forthwith by public sentiment and condemnation. Objects to Linton's Petition Objects to Linton's Petition Alderman Anderson more commonly called "Lonie," when asked by the Commission upon what grounds did he object to Linton's petition, was unable to give any legal reasons other than he was the "Friday" of George F. Harding, political boss of the Thompson machine in the Second ward and he didn't want any opposition. His objections were sustained by the Commission which shows that it also seems to be a creature of the same machine and system. Anderson's Petition Attacked Through his attorney, Richard E. Westbrooks, of the firm of Ellis & Westbrooks, Linton filed objections to "Lonie's" petition, Atty, Westbrooks, after exhausting the Law Institute of all of the available information on the election laws proved to The Commission that his law partner acknowledged no partiality when he was not a registered notary in Cook County at the time. Atty, Westbrooks also showed that the names of numbers of voters on "Lonie's" petition were without doubt written by one person. Westbrooks read case after case to show that either one of these discrepancies was sufficient to invalidate the "joke telling" alderman's petition, yet The Commission ruled arbitrarily and let his name remain on the ballot. Linton Makes Statement "I did not enter this race to satisfy any personal ambitions of my own," said Mr. Linton, but to satisfy the better thinking colored people in their desire to have intelligent and clean representation." "I shall fight to a finish. Through my attorney, I shall enter mandamus proceedings to force the Commission to place my name on the ballot. If the court does not hand down the order in time, I shall carry on a campaign to have my name written on the ballot as a protest against vice immunity privileges, headed by Uncle Tom leaders with their eyes fastened to the goal and their souls withered by pussyfooting indulgence." THE ETERNAL TRIANGLE Mrs. Mabel Jones, age 25, 3731 Federal St, was shot through the lower abdomen, and Austin Campbell, living in the same building at the Federal St. address, was shot through the left arm and shoulder by William Jones, husband of Mrs. Jones, when he discovered Campbell in his apartment with his wife. Jones fled after the shooting. STATE BANK FOR LOUISVILLE LOUISVILLE, Ky., Feb. 9.—The First Standard (State) Bank of Louisville, has opened its doors in temporary quarters here. The capital stock, $110,000, has been fully subscribed and the opening of the bank is looked forward to as the filling of a long-felt need here. Wilson Lovett is the president and has associated with the Louisville business men of the town. Capt. Abe Simpson, an overseas veteran is one of the cashiers. 5 CENTS PAY NO MORE AND BEAT THEM ALLOW ACCUSED TO GO TO TRIAL WITH OUT LAWYER ALLOW ACCUSED TO GO TO TRIAL WITH OUT LAWYER FORT WORTH, Tex., Feb. 9.—According to all indications it seems that Charles Moden, accused of a serious offense in connection with a white woman of this city, is going to trial without counsel. The stage is set for the trial, and the state has indicated that it is ready to proceed, but Moden is without funds to employ counsel, and the court has not gone to the trouble to appoint one. Jail Guarded Against Lynching Rumors made that an attempt would be made to take Moden from the County Jail here and Lynch him caused Sheriff Carl Smith to keep a heavy guard around the jail. Window shades on windows were lowered and lights were turned out early to keep outsiders from seeing movements of the jail guards. SOUTHERN BLUEBLOOD SLAIN ATTACKING WOMAN --- --- EIGHT PAGES KOSCIUSKO, Miss., Feb. 9-Victor Dakenhardt, a young white man descendant of "one of the bourbon families of the South," was shot and killed by Joe Williams of this city when Dakenhardt under the influence of liquor attempted to break into the home of the woman where Williams was visiting. Immediately after the slaying Williams surrendered to the police, who took him to a nearby town, believed to be Lexington, for safekeeping, as it was feared for his safety here. SCHOOLBOY SLAIN WITH BASEBALL BAT LAURENS, S. C., Feb. 9—A school house grounds out on Duncan creek ten miles cast of Laurens, was the scene yesterday of a rather unusual homicide when George Davis was struck on the head with a baseball bat and instantly killed by John Henry Long, according to Sheriff S. C. Reid, who returned to the city last night after capturing Long, who was trying to make his escape from the community. It is said that a game of ball was in progress during the noon recess when a dispute arose between Long and Davis over the game Long, it is said, advanced on Davis with the strike in his hand, threatening to strike the latter. Davis, it is claimed apparently did not take the threat seriously and made no attempt to defend himself. With one blow with the bat swung by Long, Davis' skull was crushed and he died in a few minutes. The boys are about the same age, 16 or 17 years old. The killing was witnessed by practically the entire school and caused a panic among children. The coroner's jury held Long for the crime. BREWS OVER WORKMEN'S DISCHARGE CARTERSVILLE, Ga., Feb. 9. A clash seemed to be brewing between Rogers and Cartersville Saturday following notice served on the foremen of a Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis railroad work train late Friday night by between 150 and 200 white men "that he must get rid of his negro laborers at once or be death with." Governor Dorsey was notified and he advised the sheriff at Cartersville by wire to swear in as many additional deputies as he needed to handle the situation and to call on him for further aid if the situation became acute. Rogers is the first station south of Cartersville. To Banquet Dr. Bentley Dr. Charles E.

David Manson will be in charge of arrangements. PRICE FIVE CENTS CAUGHT AFTER CHASE THRU' CANADA Paroled Slayer of Kentucky Woman Captured After Attempted Murder Here. After a pursuit which extended through the North and East, into Canada and back again, Levy Whitney, dining car waiter and paroled convict, is facing the grand jury for the attempted murder of Mrs. Catherine Matthews, 3012 LaSalle St., on Oct. 8. He was arrested upon his return to Chicago Sunday morning. Flees to Canada Immediately after his attack upon Mrs. Matthews, Levy Whitney tled to Toronto as a dining car waiter, and was subsequently sent to Buffalo. From Buffalo he was sent back to Chicago, reporting to the Lake Shore commissary at Root and State Sts. During his entire absence from Chicago Whitney was being shadowed by operatives from the Keystone Agency. When he went to his room at the home of John Newsome, 4101 Indiana Ave., he was arrested by policemen from the Cottage Grove Station. At the time of his attack upon Mrs. Matthews, which is said to have been the result of jealousy in a love affair, Whitney was living at the home of Mrs. Sarah Vaughn, 3216 Cottage Grove Ave. Not His First Victim This was not the first instance of a woman falling victim to Whitney's murderer instincts. In 1912 he killed a prominent school teacher in Louisville, Ky. He was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to from two to twenty years in the state pentenitary at Eddyville, Ky. In 1914 he paroled and left the state. His parole does not expire until July, 1928. Whitney is also said to have shot a man in Monmouth, Ill. To be Returned to Kentucky At the preliminary hearing in Judge Stewart's court Tuesday morning, Whitney was held to the grand jury under $5,000 bonds, but it is expected that he will be unrendered to the Keenan to complete the expired part of his parole. He will then be returned to Chicago to face his indictment here. FLEEING ROBBER FALLS WITH BOOTY FLEEING ROBBER FALLS WITH BOOTY Champ Pillman, age 37, 4737 Wabash Ave., while fleeing from policemen who were pursuing him for the theft of a pair of shoes, fell to the ground and struck against the curbing. He was captured at 49th St. and Indiana Ave. BINGA BEATEN IN COURT BINGA BEATEN IN COURT A damage suit against Jesse Binga, banker, which had its inception back in 1917, was terminated in Judge Righeimer's court last week when Joe Everage, 3602 Federal street, was awarded damages for trespass against the real estate speculator. It appears from the evidence that Binga attempted to evict Everage from a flat which he was renting at 4152 Wabash member 1017 into Everage instructed his jailer to break Everage's flat, which the jailer did. Everage claims that after the raid, he missed several articles, Attorney W. C. Smith, 5204 Dearborn street, represented the plaintiff. CONFESSES SLAYING FOUR, BURNING THE BODIES YAZOO CITY, Miss., Feb. 9—Gus Davis confessed last Friday morning to the murder of four people and the subsequent burning of their bodies. The murdered people were; Mack Gibson, Ella Gibson, Louvinia Smith, and Maggie Williams. The murder occurred early in November. Davis confessed that he slew Gibson in a row over money and then burned their bodies and the house they lived in to cover the crime. He broke down and confessed during his confession. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures, In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils. Robert L. Mays, President of the Railway Men's International Benevolent Association, proved the quality of his intellect when in a recent meeting in the interest of community welfare, attended by representative people of both races, he got up and played the part of "Bull in the China Closet." The tommyrot speech he rendered made him the object of pity and disgust. How much longer will he tax the community with his foolishness? The association which he heads is composed of fine ambitious men, who stand in need of real intelligent leadership. How long will they stand for him? Many people wonder why the south side of Chicago is the dumping ground for vice and immorality. It is because the administration does not see fit to break it up. The city does not see fit to break it up because of the graft which the catspaw politicians receive. The politicians are collecting the income tax on vice and are waxing fat off of gambling institutions. Let us pray. Louis B. Anderson, alderman of the second ward, was instrumental in eliminating a young candidate for his job under the subterfuge that he had incorrectly filed his petition. This scheming, contriving "leader" was afraid of a fair fight. He is on the inside of the click and, of course, no one could expect a fair deal. The people of Chicago must sooner or later realize that men of Anderson ilk are not the criterions for our young people. He cannot forever thrive off of the blood of his brothers. Shame on Alderman Louis B. Anderson, the city council jester and hat boy of the white bosses. * * * * The proposed blue laws, which will make the Sabbath Day a day of worship, which will force recalcitrant humanity to realize that the Lord is in His holy temple, may not meet our approbation and may not be very popular. However, if one would observe how many people spend their Sundays in pool rooms and in other rendezvous of corruption, they would say bring on the blue laws, if only to close the breeding places of crime. The Ku Klux has already started to rebuild their "invisible empire." It is hoped that the Government will see it before some hot-headed conscientious objector will, and then the Government will be forced to call out troops to protect the unseen "imperialists." says: No race of people has made such a remarkable con tribution, that is to the sum total of leaders as our race. In fact, among us, a leader is born every day. Sometimes two a day, and the majority of them can be safely counted upon to lead in the wrong direction. We are compelled, however, to congratulate ourselves upon the modicum of success we have obtained, especially in view of the fact that we have been compelled to carry a tremendous burden by reason of our amount of leaders. During the war we were bothered and pestered with our "Simmons." Of course, his leadership was paid for at fifty and seventy-five cents a throw and it might be termed as an essential leadership—that is to say—to the Kernel, because it gave him direct entree from day to day to the feed trough at the expense of his followers. We had thought that after the war was over we would be able to rid ourselves of a large per cent of this unnecessary leadership with which we have for so long been burdened. It is significantly strange that most every man or woman who heads a secret order society or union without lief or license assumes and delegates to himself the right to pose as spokesman for the race. It was recent incident of this peculiar trait evinced itself at a banquet at the Vincennes Hotel, Saturday evening last at which an imposing array of talent gathered representatives of both races to discuss matters pertaining to community interests. The usual thing happened—what we mean by that is that an alleged leader was called upon and emitted certain views which were by no means in keeping with the occasion. The particular "bull in the china shop" at this occasion was R. L. Mays, indicated that we wanted no support from other people, although the meeting had been called and "other people" had been invited to ask assistance for the support of a much needed community house. His ramblings about an "instrument" and other far from the mark remarks stood out as the last striking example of self-appointed leadership which is ever increasing always to the discomfiture and retardation of the people at large and those who are really interested in somebody besides themselves. God give us some means of removing these self-appointed Moses' who continue to break the growing interests of a benighted people. AN APPEAL I have been authorized by Rev. W. A.

UNO To The You Know 'Em Editor I know you know those people who stand in the middle of the sidewalk and cause other pedestrians to walk around them, even if they have to walk in water or piles of snow. Well, tell them a strong man or some drunk is going to push them into the street the next time they cause this inconvenience to passersby. Oh you must know that "nosey" old ground hog? Well, tell him to drop in at that Indiana avenue residence and get his chattel. He ducked into his hole so fast last Wednesday night that he shed his shadow. You know that prominent "circle" president who cannot be handed a red apple. I know you know her, because ten years ago almost anybody could hand her apples, red or green or any kind. Oh, how times change. I know you know that famous animal who plays havoc in any perfectly good china shop? Well, Chicago's prize one got loose last Saturday night at the banquet at the Vincennes Hotel. No need to mention his name. Every railroad man knows him. I know you know those people who are employed in various institutions where it is necessary to wear old clothes to do their work. Well, it's perfectly alright for them to do that. It's no disgrace to work, but please tell them to take a change of clothes to work with them to be used to and fro on the street cars. It will reduce the cleaning bill of others, against whom they lean in the crowded cars. I know you know that prominent lawyer and preacher who is having some "difficulty" with the lady who was once in his employ. Well, his case is on trial now in the county building and will probably be terminated before we go to press. If not, watch next week's issue. I know Attorney Westbrooks? Oh, you must know him because he made Alderman Anderson and his "expert" lawyers look up all of the law in the books and then some and had the election commission all up in the air. Westbrooks certainly knows his stuff. Ladies. Mrs. Meyers wants to tell you how to increase your beauty, also how to earn good money in an easy pleasant way in spare hours. Write her today. Mrs. M.

WHY NOT SEE HIM AND TAKE OUT A POLICY NOW? WHY NOT KEEP ABREAST WITH THE TIMES? "NOSEY" SEES ALL KNOWS ALL O NOSEY FINDS' that it never pays to go home before twelve or one or two o'clock because that seems to be the time of morning that Nosey meets people whom it seems it is most unlikely to be about. That is why he saw that taxicab cavort up to that Grand Blvd. residence in the 35th block and violently reject a fragile little lady out on the sidewalk. Nosey saw her gather herself up and literally fly up on the front steps, taking out her keys on the way up. The cab had hardly dashed off with its pale-faced male occupant before another hurled itself up before the residence and the "good husband" jumped out and spilled all of the small change out of his pockets trying to pay the taxi driver. Nosey saw him race up the steps and later saw lights leap from the upper windows. It was not until the next morning that Nosey found out that both wife and husband were trying to beat the other home and nearly laughed himself to death when he thought how near they came to bumping because the husband's cab carried away a lady snuggled up on the floor. Nobody knows how wife and husband greeted each other both trying to make out that they had been home for some time. ONLY THE RICH can enjoy and Nosey is poor and hungry and therefore knows. That the "prominent" real estate man is both rich and "enjoying" his riches, is evident from the fact that he is sending furniture—complete sets in each case—to three different addresses, all of the furniture, though bought on the dollar down scheme, is in his name. Forty-fifth Street gets some, Indiana's Avenue gets some and the rest goes to his home, showing that he is not forgetting the hand that he made. Those who know hope that the panic does not come because two flats will be cleaned out and leave only the suitcases that were brought there by their pretty young female owners and they will have to "try again." SOMETIMES Nosey manages to get "in society." The other night he was attending a little function where all the society folk were gathered including the "socializing lawyer," and a nice little girl took Nosey to be "introduced" to some more ladies. Five stood in a row and as Nosey was presented every one of the five in their turn, said, "My compliments, when Nosey was introduced. What the words mean, they do not know and is still wondering what the ladies had in mind. As much a rat and night owl as Nosey is, he knows that this is no way to acknowledge an introduction. Well, free schools and dumb... still holds good. END IT, I say! Don't strike me again!" Those were the words that struck Nosey's cars as he was tossing himself along in front of a gay cabaret. Turning around to see the face of the one who uttered those wretched cries, Nosey came face to face with James. The Bootleger, sometimes social uplift worker and dance hall Apollo. This gentleman had applied his soft and gentle fist gently to the jaw of his lady friend. Nosey wondered what was the matter, when he heard the lady drink, and when he did not get those drinks, Jim, but I did not get last week." Then Jim calmly told her that she better not dare come out again without money enough to pay for those drinks. Then Nosey knew why it was that Old Jim always had more money in his pockets than he did. Great tip for Nosey, Jim. THE CHICAGO WHIP YOU CAN NEVER tell where those summer sports are until you go in those flats on Indiana Avenue out near 42nd Street. Nosey was invited to a wrist party, long ago and happened to stop on the wrong floor and hearing a familiar laugh rapped upon a nearby door. As he entered he saw one of the old State Street loungers who always looked so spick and span in the summer. Nosey saw that he was all wrapped up in a bath robe but he still wore those white flannel trousers. Nosey asked him if he was dodging the draught and was informed that it was the snow and sleet and that the corner lizard would stay in there with his canned goods until the sun came out again. This explained the absence of many of the old familiar figures and also why some rooming rouses are in the winter. They haven't anything on the bears—they stay in all winter thur Brisbane, the To-day how it burning of a human being — to hear his dying shrieks of agony — to see his roasting flesh drop in sickening chunks from his writhing bones — O, God, and I wonder a lot of other things how he delicately bites white mother of the Southland feels when she sees her children hair being — to hear his dying shrieks of agony — to see his roasting flesh drop inckening chunks from his writhing bones — O. God, and I wonder a lot of other things — I wonder how the delicately bred white mother of the Southland feels when she sees her children with their brave and chivalric fathers and brothers part of the friendish mob — I wonder how the pious ministers preaching a Gospel of love and forebearance feel—when such outrages are perpetrated in their midst. I wonder, oh how I wonder how feels the really good, law-abiding citizen as the nauseating stench of burning human flesh fills his nosrills—surely it must sicken his soul and does he not know that no nation is safer than its weakest citizen. I wonder too, how Chicago feels when "Oft in the stillly night" her slumbers are disturbed by the deadly roar of the death-dealing bomb — leaving destruction and ruin in its wake. I wonder how long the big, sensible men and women of this city and nation will permit the forces of destruction to run rampant. There is no such thing as mob psychology. The mob is a senseless, soulless thing, seeking whom it may devour. When the helpless black victim no longer satiates its lust for blood then like Nero it will burn and destroy its own. Law is no stronger than public sentiment and it is the duty of every citizen everywhere, in schools and churches, clubs and lodges and above all in the home to preach the Gospel of law and order. USE SLQAN'S TO WARD OFF PAIN You can just tell by its healthy, stimulating odor, that it is going to do you good "If I only had some Sloan's Liniment" How often you've said that! And then when the rhenatic twinge subsided—after hours of suffering—you forgot it! Don't do it again—get a bottle today and keep it handy for possible use tonight! A sudden attack may come on—sciatica, limbago, joints, muscles, backache, stiff joints, neuralgia, the pains and aches resulting from exposure. You'll soon find warmth and relief in Sloan's, the liniment that penetrates without rubbing. Clean, economical.

Superstition is still a silent monarch among the Eskimos. When the men are away after sea animals the women are not permitted to work on the skins of land animals; and when the men hunt caribou the women must not touch the skins of sea animals. Men must not work on iron until three days after the polar bear has been hunted. The first seal killed in a day's hunting is brought into the igloo through a special hole cut into the ice walls, and the eyes are punched out before it is dragged in the room to prevent its soul seeing the interior, which would bring bad luck. When the whale-hunting season opens the Eskimos have a dance fest that lasts for a week; and while the Angakook, or medicine man, is demonstrating his ability and arranging details, the ice breaks sometimes and the whales get out into the sea, leaving the celebrating Eskimos without even one catch. Stefansson, who spent many years among the Eskimos, says they pick up Christianity quickly, because it forbids so many things, and they marvel at Sunday—a day set aside for rest—of which they never dreamed. ADVANTAGE OF HONEY CAKES Keep Much Longer Than Other Kinds and Are Made Without the Honey cakes have the advantage over other cakes of keeping fresh much longer. The following one is recommended by food specialists of the United States department of agricul- ture: 1/2 cupful butter. 1/2 teaspoonful cinn 1 cupful honey. namon. 1 egg. 1/2 teaspoonful gins 1/2 cupful sour milk. ger. 1 teaspoonful soda. 4 cupful flour. Rub the butter and honey together, add the egg well beaten, then the sour milk and the flour sifted with the soda and spices. Bake in a shallow pan. WHEN I AM A SPIRIT. When I am a spirit—leave me alone! Don't prick at the tough-skinned riddle! Would you turn from a feast to gnaw on a bone? Go, dine while the fiddlers fiddle! Why lure me back to play the fool— To bridge your brief hour's yearning With maudlin talk through a three-legged stool. With raps or table turning? I'll lend no aid to an old dame's trance, As she plucks at the air with her fingers. She'll bid no spirit of mine to prance— Let her cluck to the spook who lingers! Oh, leave me alone! Go, drink your wine, And look to the moment's living; Lest you in your world, I in mine, Lose precious drops of living. —Mildred Plew Merryman, in New York Odd Funeral Equipment. Even funeral customs are changing. A London correspondent writes: "I saw a remarkable funeral yesterday. Four swiftly moving taxicabs, gleaming in the sun, came along Tachbrook street, Pimlico, S. W. The roof of the leading cab was covered with blooms. In the distance it looked as though it were a marriage party, but inside the first taxicab was a coffin almost enveloped in flowers. The occupants of the cabs—men and women—were not wearing mourning, at any rate not the orthodox black. I know no details of the funeral, but others, like myself, as they raised their hats out of respect for the dead, turned again to look on an unusual scene." Use Electrydes for RHEUMATISM No Drugs No Dieting No Danger K you suffer from Rheumatism, Cold Feet, Nervous Ailments or Poor Circulation, send at once for a set of Electrodes on your WORRIER H. F. Mettler, Postmaster, Colonne, S. D., says: "My wife and I have both used the Electrodes, we received them very quickly. They are very beneficial." Richard Fellet, Aboveville, S.

CLUB GIRLS TAUGHT TO PREPARE SUPPER Constructive Criticism Found to Be Valuable in Making Each Repast a Little Bit Better Than the To make sure that the girls in the home-making clubs, supervised by the United States department of agriculture and the Connecticut State Agricultural college, are able to put to practical use what they have learned in the clubs about buying, cooking and serving food, their leaders have organized "supper clubs." These clubs meet twice a month at the local leader's home. At the first meeting of the month a well-balanced meal is planned with the help of the leader. Each girl is assigned a certain part of the meal, for which she is responsible. At the second meeting she brings the material and prepares, cooks and serves her part of the supper. Adults are asked to these suppers, and the invitations are highly prized. The usual menu consists of meat, potatoes, one vegetable, hot bread, sometimes salad, dessert, and a hot drink. So far the average, cost per person served has been 24 to 26 cents. After the meal the club girls meet in a group and discuss and criticize the various articles on the menu and the serving. This constructive criticism has been found to be very valuable in making each supper a little better in every way than the preceding one. OF INTEREST TO THE HOUSEWIFE Honey can be used instead of sugar for sweetening custards. Use a fine grater to remove the surface of anything burned. Starch that is stirred with a paraffin candle will be clear. If flatirons are sticky, wash then carefully and dry thoroughly. Figs, dates and raisins stewed with a little strup of honey make a particularly nice cake filling. A little bluing in the last water that you rinse your black stockings in gives them a much better color. NOTICE!

The feature of the evening was a two-circle German ending up with an old-fashioned Virginia reel, led by Mr Dave Lawrence and Mrs. Van Ness Johnson. After the first circle, the grand march was led by Miss Alone Jennings and Dr. Ahrue Faeman. During the march each guest was presented with caps of various shades. The ending of the second circle brought bouquets of candy flowers for the ladies and boutonnieres for the gents. Upon the ending of the Virginia reel, as the honored guest of the evening, and her escale passed down the line, streamers and showers of confetti were thrown upon them, which gave the required touch that made the evening one of perfect color. The event was one of the most unique and beautiful affairs of its kind ever given in Chicago, and together with its good peppy music and every one in holiday spirits, it was voted by all present to be one of the largest evenings they have spent for many a day. For its cleverness, coloring and life, words are inadequate to commend Miss Ward, and as a charming hostess she cannot be equaled. On the other hand Miss Jennings stands out as being one of the most winsome debutantes that Chicago has ever presented.

"No, sir, said the youngster. "But the reason is that I left without asking for one. You see, when I had been there a month a cow died, and we had to eat it. Some weeks afterwards a pig died, and—would you believe it?" we had to eat that. Well, two days ago the old woman died, and so I hopped it."—London Tit-Bits. The new baby had proved itself the possessor of extraordinary, fung power. One day baby's brother, little Johnny, said to his mother: "Ma, little brother came from heaven, didn't he? "Yes, dear," answered the mother. Johnny was silent for a minute, and then he went on: "I say, ma." "What is it, Johnny?" "I don't blame the angels for slinging him out, do you?" Wanted Some Attention An old lady, after waiting in a confectionery store for about ten minutes, grew grossly impatient at the lack of service. Finally she rapped sharply on the counter. "Here, young lady," she called, "who waits on the nuts?"—Everybody's Magazine. "Dear God," prayed golden-haired little Willie, "please watch over my mamma." And then he added as an afterthought, "And I dunno as it would do any harm to keep an eye on the old man, too." Phone Douglas 3380 The J. T.

LIFE It isn't the victory that counts, lads, It's the way that you put up the fight. It isn't the path that you go, lads, As long as you travel it right. It isn't the goal at the top, boys, That counts when the journey is through; But the fellows you've helped on the road, lads, That tell in the balance for you. It isn't the pace that you go, lads, It's the way the fellow who climbs, bit by bit. Who plops when the others are first, lads, Yet stays when the others have quit. It isn't the smile of the victor. That weaves golden stars for his crown. But the twisted old grin that he gives, lads, The fellow who smiles when he's down. It isn't defeat that will count, lads, Or the things that we gain, you and I. But the way that you shoulder your fight, lads, And lived when you wanted to die. It isn't the things that we do, lads, If we win, or we stumble or fall. But the heart that we've brought all the way, let alone the count at the end of the trail. -Edna Jaques in Seattle Post-Intelli- gencer.

Weakley and Mr. T. Cannon. Tho' somewhat shocked by the intensity of the rays of the supreme Beacon as those glorious rays enfolded them, the new members went home unharmed. The meeting was cut short in order to allow the members to participate in the election of Bethel's Trustee Board and attend the social affair of the Usher's Board. They went to both places in a body-yell and all. Rocky Mountain Evangelist in Ohio Accompanied by his musical director, Mr. Geo, E. Wright, Dr. H.

A Correction In last week's issue of The Chicago Whip it was stated that The Lincoln State Bank was increasing its capital from $100,000.00 to $200,000.00. This was an error on our part. It should have read that the capital is being increased from $200,000.00 to $400,000.00 and the surplus is being increased from $20,000.00 to $30,000.00. This makes the statement all the stronger for those who are depositors in this southside bank.

Masque Party The hostess to the Business Girls Club this week was Miss Ruth McCoo, who celebrated her tenth birthday at the same time in a Masque Party. The decorations were beautiful and many, extending as they did all in and about The Triangle Room of the Y. M. C. A. Many guests enjoyed the hospitality of the genial hostess until 11:30. A novel and enjoyable added feature of the Business Girls Club is a five-minute talk from one member each week on the sermon heard the previous Sunday in an endeavor to foster the "Go to Church on Sunday" spirit. The Club had a fifteen-minute talk on "Trrift Among Girls" by Attorney Viollette N. Anderson at the last meeting. Many sage advices were given, and many promises of added endeavor along the line of thrift were made. Jewish Tea The Jewish Tea given by Mrs David Lawrence at the Appomattox Club on Wednesday last was a very pleasant feature of the many social functions of the week. The Community Dance to be given March 17 at the 8th Regiment Armory in the interest of the Urban League, whose force for food and uphold virtue among the race is known promises to be a bala affair if the interest shown by all present counts for anything.

THE CHICAGO WHIP AN AUTOMOBILE FOR A DOLLAR Yes, a real honest-to-gooodness automobile, guaranteed to do a cross country run in regular time and return with all its parts and its original owner. This is what Mrs. Maude A Lawrence is promising Chicago, when March 17th, the season's most unique social event will be staged at the Eighth Regiment Armory. Not only is the attraction new, but its introduction was likewise a sensational revelation. With a Jewish Tea (and what this is you will have to find out from one of the 75 ladies who participated in the event Friday, February 4th, at the Appomattox Club) the affair was launched and is already gaining popular favor. The cause is a worthy one, for the proceeds will go to the Chicago Urban League; and there are three good reasons why Chicago is aroused over this new affair: The chance of winning a car if your number is drawn, the opportunity to assist a worthy organization, and a delectable promenade to the tune of Elgar's select orchestra. Assisting Mrs. Lawrence are: Mrs. Charles S. Washington and Mrs. William T. Jefferson, who are Secretary and Treasurer respectively, and a Patroness' Committee from whom tickets may be secured for the price of $1.00. A full list of the ladies apparent may also be secured from the office of the Chicago Urban League, 3032 South Wabash Avenue. Y. M. C. A. News Dr. Frank W.

Community Notes Great Rally for Wholesome Play Community Dinner Success The Community Service Dinner meeting last Saturday evening at the Vincennes Hotel emphasized a new milestone in social working among the colored people of Chicago. The event was held under the auspices of South Side Community Services and marked the opening of a week's drive for moral and financial support. The campaign is for approximately fifteen thousand dollars to take care of the expense of maintaining a Community Center for public use and the development of a program for recreational guidance and the direction of leisure time activities for men, women, and children of the South Side. Miss Jane Addams, nationally famed as the founder and director of the Hull House of this city; Mr. Ernest T. Atwell, national Director of Bureau of Colored work, Community Service, Inc., were the principal speakers, Mr. R. L. May, prominent local leader and also social worker, well known, heartily endorsed the appeal presented by the speakers. About one hundred and fifty diners who attended representing various fraternal and religious and social groups, applauded the expressions unfolding the needs of wholesome recreation and facilities and leadership for guidance of play among young and old. It was made clear that the work of the center would not be all relief, charity, or correction, but a movement to promote through community participation, progress seeking to guide folks in a way to develop more wholesome use of off duty hours. Mr. Atwell sounded the keynote in saying, "We have been long wondering how to keep good people good. Community Service is the answer to that challenge. Community ends February fourteenth and all persons interested mail their subscriptions to the campaign committee of which W. R. Cowan is chairman or to Langston, Treasurer. The American Legion The George L. Giles Post met Thursday, February third, for a regular meeting at post headquarters, 3201 South Wahash avenue. The post went on record as heartily endorsing the Community House as a center for the leisure time activities of the people of the South Side and a large number of men volunteers to act as captains during the present drive. The meeting was short and snappy and was over by 9 P. M. Ex-service men are again reminded that the post George L. Giles has regular office hours—3:30 to 5:30 P. M. daily except Sundays. Reverend L. K. Williams Delivers Powerful Sermon. Reverend L. K. Williams Delivers Powerful Sermon. Scores Shout with Religious Fervor Text: Genesis 9: The BOW in the CLOUDS The unusually clear and comprehensive style in which Reverend L. K. Williams, Olivet, delivered his sermon last Sunday, held spellbound his fifteen hundred congregation as he gradually mounted to the top rung of his spiritual ladder. Then invoking the power of animated vision he placed before the mental and spiritual eyes of his hearers God's Rainbow of the Covenant. The large congregation became aesthetic. Shouts and screams of religious fervor proved this sermon to have been one of the greatest ever delivered in Chicago. The demonstration has not been duplicated nor has it precedent in this city. EXTRACTS "Why this mild winter? God knows why—and perhaps, because many of us were not prepared for a 'hard' winter." "As the beautiful rainbow is the symbol of a struggle of sunshine, clouds and rain, so therefore we find that the BEST things that we get in this world are born of agony and sorrow." "There must be mortal death before spiritual birth. Bunyan in prison and Milton in blindness endowed the world's best literature with Pilgrim's Progress and Paradise Lost!" "It is no test of prowess for one to follow the herd, but to go the way that the herd goeth not—that is a true test of human character." "A LIE never hurt an honest man nor an honest people." "No one has a right to be washed in water (ritually) whose soul has not been washed in blood." About fifty persons are said to have joined the church Sunday. "The Quest of Beauty" The subject of the lecture to be given by the Pioneer Lodge of the Theosophical Society Sunday, February 13th, is "The Quest of Beauty" by Mrs. Barrington. A good subject by a good speaker is presented to the public every Sunday at 7 o'clock by the Pioneer Lodge at the Community Center House, 3201 Wabash Ave. Berean Baptist Church. 52nd and Dearborn Sts.

The story of a man who defied the whole state for love—a romance, so swift and daring it takes one's breath. "Prairie Trails" is the story of the inward conflict that takes place when Tex Benton, lover of the manly life and despair of womanish manners and customs, falls in love. While one side of his nature cries out for the companionship and love of Janet, McWhorter, the other side yearns for battle and strife. Added Wednesday—"The Son of Tarzan" No. 6.

See how her salvation was accomplished by the unconscious heroism of a child. This is an absorbing picture of how a woman's white lie tangled up three lives until it seemed as if the snarl would never be straightened out.

Florintine gave it to him, listlessly, the latchkey he had requested long ago, and told him he might have a duplicate made of it at any time he wished.

John Lloyd the demon shortstop and manager of the Royal Giants of New York has come to terms with the Western Circuit and the negotiations call for the acquition of five additional players of the great New York team. It is thought that Chas "Joe" Green, the Chicago owner will turn the reins of field manager over to the great Lloyd and that Green will devote the greater part of his time to important business interests that he has in the Windy city. Green is one of the big financial men of the Western Circuit and has edged in a huge bank roll to secure a team that will not be surpassed by any aggregation in the country. Green is a pioneer in the game and has always been known as a fiery leader, but his years of experience in shaping the crude ones into the finished article, together with the specific duty of owner, has convinced the veteran that President, Manager, Secretary, Coach and sometimes player, is too big a job for one man in these progressive days of base ball. The seasons spent under the tutelage of "Rube" Foster has served to lift Lloyd for the duties of a manager, and when he assumes the leadership, no doubt exists, he is to be seriously considered before the big honors of the coming season are awarded. Lloyd led the Royal Giants to titular honors last season and won new laurels by beating American and International League clubs. The system of base ball government of colored players in the East savors much of the "cracker" neonage system in vogue in the rural districts of the Southland, and it is that menace that Lloyd and his followers want to avoid. It is said that one man—Nat Strong—dominates the whole base ball activities of the team the colored promoter is wont to operate, is the colored promoter to 150 the Hebrew's control of more than 150 amusement places and parks, that he is to negotiate terms to colored players and promoters that blocks their advance and keeps them in a state of stagnation. It is said that this complete tie-up of the colored Base ball than hands enclaves the Hebrew to exact a heavy toll from each game played by each and every club that operates in its territory. Aside from a deduction of 10 per cent from each club's receipts, the system calls for a division of something like from twenty to twenty-five per cent for colored clubs, a figure intended to not go over $500 no matter how big the general receipts. The one or two clubs that have attempted to operate independent of this system of devastation have been fought tooth and nail and by preying upon the weaklings amongst colored players, the hard-boiled players, the hard-pressed obstacles in the path of progressive colored men who are and have worked long and earnest for progress. How long is the sting of this base ball viper to continue to snuff the life and progress of the colored man in base ball? If there be a colored player now existing under this vile system of deterioration, and he has a spark of manhood in his make-up, he should at once show it and cast his lot with the National Association of Colored base ball clubs, an organization for the uplift of colored people in the world's greatest national game.

Of Blount's first year, it was said that he was reluctantly handed a championship aggregation. That may be true; but the Wolverine owner must be given the honor of maintaining that winning spirit amongst the players so absolutely necessary for success. He has not only thought of either thought or been virtually handed what looked like a pennant winner, only to finish with his charges trailing along in the tail end of the race, but Blount's initial year had him within a hairs-breadth of the world's championship honors. The nery owner shattered that great team and started his second year released of the services of six of his former stars, finishing second in the race, and only for accidents which had his team all shot for the greater part of the season, the general belief preails to the honor of that year. Blount's ability to each year round out a winning aggregation for the great baseball city of Detroit, is a grand tribute to the cunning and foresight of the Wolverine owner and this coming season, with owners all over the country up in the air as to their line-ups. Blount announces that he is all set and ready to go. With Miller, Riggins, Warfield and Wesley for the infield, the Stars can match heads with any and not fear the results. Behind the bat, the prowess of Petway is well known and the well-seasoned Webster gives the Stars added prestige, with a fast coming youngster, Scott, to draw on. Holland looks to be the class of the league on the slab and big Bill Gatewood, with a world of knowledge and experience is due to cop more than fifty games. Letty Cooper is due this season and it right his work abodes no good the toe. Force, the Southern league crack comes with a reputation for giving "Rube's" bargain all and more than they bargained for, and will just about round out a pennant winning staff. An outfield of Hill, Gans-Polls and Moore is bound to give the Detroiters plenty of prestige both on the offense and defense. Many of the players are in winter base ball and the veterans wintering in Chi are taking light work outs dally at the Y gym. The players assemble early in April. SHORT STOP, JOHN LOYD PALM BEACH RESULTS GIANT TEAMS IN DEADLOCK "Rube" Foster's American Giants caused the Royal Giants to partake of the dust of their hoofs for seven innings of the third game at Palm Beach, and Lefty Dave Brown had the Royals eating from his hand, his foe being able to secure but two little bingos from the southpaw shoots of the Chicagoans. The stick work, base running and team work of the Westerners enabled them to shove four runs across the platter in that time, and with darkness coming on, the Chi crew looked to have the doings all sewed up, when outfielder Brooks, in the 8th, opened up the fireworks for the Royals with a slashing two-sacker, followed by a bingle by Miller. Joe Williams grabbed a hit, and later on, on an infield play designed to kill the work of Frances's bat, Brown heaved wildly to the plate and the Royals counters jumped to three. In the ninth Rube's men pushed one over on smart maneuvering of DeMoss and Lyons and a drive by Warfield. T. Williams relieved Brown in the ninth, but did not survive, a barrage of blows sending him to cover and Lieut. Johnson came to the rescue. The Lieut. came out of a bad hole with the score: Rube, 5; Royals, 6. With Roberts pitching against the Chi zang and one run behind, they fought another run across, tieing up the loings, where it remained. AB R BH PO A E Gardner, cf 3 1 1 1 0 Beckham, cf 2 0 0 0 0 B.

The same teams meet again Sunday but this time the tables may be turned, for "Lim" Love will be in the points for Fisher and "Slim" had the rare distinction last Sunday of trimming the colored track 3 to 1 against Love will be pitched Nonpareil Jess Hubbard, who is some flinger and with but few peers in the business.

CAN'T STOP POLLARD LOS ANGELES, Cali. Feb. 8th—Coach Bullock of the American Legion football team said before the game at Tournament Park last week that individually his men would give the Akron pros a real fight. After watching the slaughter of the Legionnaires, one is forced to chronicle the fact that this was not enough. Akron won by the massive count of 69 to 0 and left nothing at all to the imagination. A lot of folks in Southern California have been wondering just what the Akron gang would do if they ever got mad. Apparently someone spoke romance to the Ohio boys between halves, for in the second period they ripped boots everything in the book shredding the Legion defense to hits and ripping over the last chalk mark for seven touchdowns. Pollard, the star, was smallpox to the Legion team in the first half, but Coun was leprosy to the San Joaquin boys in the second half, and had them dirty in the clink. There was no further scoring in the first quarter, though Pollard dog trotted 90 yards for a touchdown after snagging a blocked ball, the ball being brought back for offside play. A elever run of 30 cards by Pollard, a four- handed trick, bobin bucked for the second touchdown.

WHITE SOX IN ZIPPY GAME Pitcher "Thirsty" Thurston successfully defended his reputation by defeating the L. A. White Sox (colored), 8 to 5, in a snappy and exciting game. He was ticked pretty well now, and then, but kept his hits well scattered. Rogan performed for the Sox and was hardly at his best. The All-Stars made five runs off him in one inning by bunching their hits. Joe Pirrone and his trusty bludgeon started the onslaught with a slashing two-bagger. Bobby Meusel who arrived in Los Angeles from the East was in the line-up with the All-Stars. The same teams will hook up again at the Sox park Sunday. Ray Keating, one of the cleverest pitchers on the Coast, or Red Oldham, will be the heaver for the All-Stars, while King Curry will officiate for the Sox.

The great athletic events that are being pulled by the Forty Club has endeared not only the red blooded American sport follower to the Eighth Regiment Armory as a rendezvous, but the sport shows are attracting the blue bloods and elite in all walks of life. The Forty Club's interpretation of this highly popular game, beyond all doubt has gone a long way towards educating sport lovers concerning the great possibilities of this particular pastime towards a means of health, happiness and longevity, as well as glittering gallantry in the athletic world. Report has the Hoosier squad as cavemen, raw meat eaters and other of the vicious type that bring the red blood of light to the surface not only of their foe, but to the onlooker. It will require the steel of just such a squad in order to cope successfully with the Forty floormen, for at this time—ataoed as they are with the scars of fierce battles—endowed with that do or die spirit, putting up a trout to all toe that is designed to sweep them from the floor. Let the Hoosiers beware. The regular dance will be a part of the evening's entertainment. CINCINNATI "Y" WINS CINCINNATI, O Feb. 8. — Cincinnati's wizard team defeated the Wilberforce five to the tune of 54-27 last Friday night on the Cincy floor. This victory automatically makes the Queen City team the champions of their state. All of their games will be with teams outside of Ohio, but with their well balanced aggregation, they are able to detain their title against all comers. And Cincy five's versatility and their ability to change their style of play which caused the collegians to eat dust. Anderson starred for the Cincinnati team and Stone for the University. CLEVELAND, O., Feb. 8th. The undefeated Swastika basketball team, continued its winning streak, when it trounced the highly touted Maroons, (White). 27 to 7, last Thursday night. The Maroons were decidedly the favorites when the two teams took the floor but the superior team work produced by the Swastika team soon began to take telling effect and the outcome of the game did not hinge on what team would win, but how many points would the black and gold machine run up. Not a big loss was registered by the Maroons, against the team. Bruce was the big scorer of the game, getting 14 of the Swastika's 27 enough in itself to win the game. At present all Cleveland's basketball interest is centered in the coming Amea Association-Swastika, game scheduled for Washington's birthday, February 22nd, at Central Elementary School. The Eighth Regiment Basketball five pulled one win and suffered two defeats last week, the latter coming through the cutting of their opponents in working ringers into the play. The regimental squad are fast forging to the front and are generally conceded to be one of the fastest squads that are showing on any floor. C JACK MARSHALL Marshall is starting his second season as a member of "Rube's" great pitching staff. His feat of a clean shut-out of the Royal Gians last week, undoubtedly stamps him as a formidable factor in the coming season's league results.

The whole system of our civic life this contagion of gambling which sweeps banks of our much battered army. Use of civilization, law and order, we impress and morality to free us from this thing which fattens the political proffer and roll from the trembling fingers of the world. Chicago, if they would be saved must be a stable forces which will start the next our community. Let us dethrone the devil political throne can be found somewhere. Whether you approve of gambling or not, it is an irrefutable fact that this practice has stultified the minds of our people. It has weakened their group strength, it has broken the morale of their civic institutions and now we find ourselves in consternation, chagrin and dismay. As we witness a much abused and oppressed people who would shatter their fetters and demand unconditional recognition from civilization, as we see them guilelessly allowing themselves to become enmeshed in the serpentine coils of gambling, we cannot help but shudder. It requires no great imagination to picture the ruined and wrecked structure of human clay which could have been moulded into men of power and men of might, who might have defeated the invisible empire of enemies and brought down the spontaneous plaudits of the world. If the black man of America would hesitate and pause during the shuffle of the cards and the clatter of the dice, they would realize that fifteen million white Europeans are seeking to grapple in America for their jobs and bread. They would realize that anti-black propaganda is being scattered indiscriminately throughout the world. They would realize that in the northern states of America that they stand "on trial" before the cynical and predjudiced Caucasian. It follows that they must make good and they must discharge from their personal, private and public environments each and every influence which will retard and disintegrate. Gambling is not peculiar to race or creed. Some form or specie of it exists wherever man is found. It is neither characteristic of the rich nor the poor. It is the inherent evil streak in humanity which devitalizes and destroys. Almost every transaction in the affairs of life involves the chance element. Every investment has associated with it the chance of either winning or losing. When energy has the latitude to lessen the degree of chance and make success reasonably certain, then society condones the chance element, but where the chances for winning or losing are equal when energy and intelligence play little part and some caprice of fate or luck is left to control the precious gold of life, then society stands aghast and both law and religion register their dissatisfaction. In Chicago—the Elysian fields of those who seek refuge from burnings, lynchings and fratricide—where the philosophy and psychology of the new age seeks foothold one would expect to find those pilgrims from the haunted south guarded, shielded and protected. One would also expect to see those who were born here engaged in the great task of building up their struggling race. One would expect to find seriousness, earnestness and morality in the majority. Yet one finds that the communities populated to large extents by black people are the very cesspools of vice and infamy. You see unearned dollars changing hands and gambling conducted notoriously unmolested, protected by political systems which reflect on the administration, the commonwealth and the people. Every public official disgorges the blame, yet everyone knows "that the Monte Carlo of the south side" is the product of a crooked, unholy system which makes Chicago the "devil town" of America. We do not need the intuitive or deductive ability of a criminologist to know that the broken, hungry, outcast gambler is easily converted into the bloodthirsty murderer, merciless highwayman and prowling, reckless footpad. The gambling tables with their hypnotic green baize drive a red, ferocious danger stare into the eyes of the loser. The laborer loses both job and hope. He becomes driftwood on the sea of iniquity and his fellow black worker is unreasonably forced to suffer for his delinquency. The professional man who has lost maltreats and neglects his trusting clients. Unkempt children with wan faces and emaciated bodies give silent but terrible rebuke to the sins of their fathers. The whole system of our civic life has become infected with this contagion of gambling which sweeps like wild fire through the ranks of our much battered army. In the name of civilization, law and order, we implore the influences of goodness and morality to free us from this terrible institution of gambling which fattens the political profiteer as he mercilessly snatches his toll from the trembling fingers of the wretched. The young men of Chicago, if they would be saved must link themselves with the inevitable forces which will start the next crusade on the gambling in our community. Let us dethrone the devil god of gambling whose political throne can be found somewhere in Chicago's Southside.

They should be considered as the builders of the Mothers whose sons died in the late war are rewarded with "gold stars." They are patriotically styled "Gold Star Mothers." The war is over. The souls of the martyred dead dwell in another world. The gold stars flash in the sun and bring back dear memories. Gold stars for memories. What kind of stars shall be worn by mothers who have given no sons to the lost cause of "democracy"? Service stars should be given to mothers who are working in the interest of moral and spiritual uplift. Mothers are needed at this time to battle the influences which destroy their sons and daughters. Mothers must serve now. They must give vision and inspiration to their offsprings who group blindly through a period of civic pandemonium. The Gold Star Mother must pin a service star to her breast. Service is needed. This is a period of reconstruction. This is a period of extenuating crime, unprecedented racial antagonism. Vice, immorality and villainy are the ruling passions. The youth of the black race should be considered as the builders of the next generation. Mothers are the builders of men. Mothers must work to mould in the minds and bodies of their "protectors" the elements and fibres which will give us the rating from which credit flows. Now is no time for whist clubs and dancing classes. Mothers are heard in their weekly Whist Club gatherings inquiring, "Who has the ace, and who has the king?" The answer is plain and simple. The white man holds both the ace and the king. Your sons and husbands hold only the jacks and the deuces. The games of life are the games to be played. The first prize is racial success accompanied with respect and recognition. All players will receive service stars which will shine in the firmament of black people. Mothers now for service stars. CONSTITUTION SOUTHERN CIVIL LAWYRY HARDING SHIP OF STATE Legal Catechism HERMAN E. MOORE Attorney at Law Ques. Is there any law here against one keeping firearms on his premises 'or protection of life and property?' Is a permit necessary for this purpose? And has an officer of the law any right to take such firearms which are kept for prosecution only? Ans. There is no specific law against having firearms on one's premises for purposes of protec- a permit necessary for this purpose? And has an officer of the law any right to take s u c h firearms which are kept for protection only? Ans. There is no specific law against having firearms on one's premises for purposes of protec- tion. I know of no law requiring a permit for the same. An officer has no right to confiscate the same without cause. Ques. Is a widow entitled to any share in the property of her mother-in-law who died, leaving no will? What part will she inherit? Ans. None. Ques. I wish to get a patent for an article which I have invented and to place the article on the market. What is the best and safest way to proceed in doing this? I do not know just how to go about the matter. Ans. Consult a reputable attorney and have him secure your patent for you. The matter of placing it upon the market after that is a business matter which you will have to work out with some of the manufacturing firms who might be in a position to place the same for you. The latter is often as large or larger problem than the perfecting of the invention itself, and you would be safer in having legal advice for your own protection when you proceed to this part of the matter after you have secured a patent to the article. Your attorney can give you much fuller advice when you consult him. **Obs.** When there is an executor named in a will, it is absolutely necessary for him to secure a lawyer, or can he present the will in court and close the estate without the services of a lawyer? Ans. The law does not require that a lawyer shall be retained to probate the will, etc. The advisability of employing a lawyer, however, depends upon the size of the estate, the complications or legal questions involved in settling the same and the business of the case.

There has recently been much discussion in the public press concerning the reorganization of that gang of ignorant, vicious, law-defying, murderous lynchers known as the "Ku Klux Klan." Colonel William J. Simmons, the Imperial Wizard, writes among other things that the Klan stands for "white supremacy and one-hundred, percent Americanism." Such a reactionary organization, in this present day of enlightened internationalism, is not only the enemy of the Negro, but of the white proletariat as well. The mantle of "one-hundred per cent Americanism" has been made faithful and a multitude of evils. This hateful and insulting organ strikes freezes and tree speech in uttered Thugs strike-breakers and minions of the parliament of justice, who break into men's homes and private sanctuaries, are imbued with its spirit. Profiteers and patriots (reformed spelling—paytriots) wore their badges of Americanism on their sleeves "for Dawes to peck at." This organization originated in the south, the most illiterate, backward and reactionary section of the country. Its members can trace their unbroken ancestry back to the jail birds, mental defectives, morons and epileptics with whom Oglethorpe first colonized Georgia, and the diseased female prostitutes sent over to be mates for these degenerate males. These those oins sprang the forefathers, of the degenerate habitats of Georgia. South and North Carolina, and various other southern states. Thus when viewed in the clear light of scientific analysis, from which THE CHICAGO WHIP OF TH SHARDING SHIP OF STATE Eyes Of The World On Hard The Eyes Of The World On Harding. Health Hints By Dr. Troy Smith The hygiene or the care of the ear is very simple when once understood. More damage is often done to impair hearing by placing various oils—foreign bodies—cotton, etc., in the ear, than disease itself does. Don't meddle with your ears, it something gets wrong with them seek the proper advice from the physician. A. B. C. I am publishing a few "Don'ts" that may be beneficial helping me hearing ficial in helping one to retain their hearing. 1. —Don't wear cotton in the cars if they are discharging pus. 2. —Don't apply a poulice to the inside of the car canal. 3. —Don't drop anything into the car unless it has been previously warmed. 4. —Don't use anything but a syringe and warm water or warm boric solution for cleaning the cars from pus. 5. —Don't strike, or box a child's cars; this has been known to rupture the drumhead and cause incurable deafness. 6. —Don't scratch the ears with anything but the fingers if they itch. Do not use the head of a pin, hairpins, pencil tips or anything of that nature. 7. —Don't meddle with the car if a foreign body, such as a bead, button or seed enters it, leave it absolutely alone, but have a physician attend to it. More damage has been done by unjust attempts at the extraction of a foreign body than could ever come from its presence in the car. The physician in extracting a foreign body does it under aseptic conditions. The various things used in the ear should always be boiled and sterilized with alcohol otherwise if they are not clean they may set up an infection or an inflammation of the ear. To relieve earache out a live coal from the fire in a cup and pour a tea-spoonful of granulated sugar over it. Be careful not to let it blaze, and at once insert a funnel over it, holding the tip of the funnel in the ear. The smoke gives instant relief. has been subtracted racial passions and prejudices and hysteria, it is plain evident that the recrudescence of such an organization of murderers and cutthroats represents a distinct phase of biological atavism a recurring tendency toward degeneracy. It is analogous to the system in India termed "Thuggee" or "Thuggeez". It is a direct outcome of the pernicious "caste system" in effect there, and which operates to prevent inter-racial or inter-tribal breeding. Thus any distinct tendencies possessed by any particular generation are more than likely to become aggravated in succeeding generations owing to the lack of cross-fertilization. It is a well known fact that the Hindu thief and murderer is recruited from a distinct group, indeed of a faint nature. From the招募ing it no faintness, summary or conclude that the pure strain which is degenerate blood which flows in the veins of the southern white, unmilled by healthful intusions and virile innovations, its responsible for the tendency to recur in succeeding generations, and in aggravated form predilections toward brutality, friendishness and sex morbidity. Colonel Simmons boasts of his "one-hundred per cent Americanism." George Bernard Shaw relates that he frequently heard the term "one-hundred per cent American," and was of a loss to discover its real meaning. After much research and inquiry he discovered a "one-hundred per cent American" to be five per cent American and ninety-five per cent a village idiot. Since it is patent that organized society has no niche in which to fit Colonel William J. Simmons and his homogeneous brood of degenerate spawn, unless it be six foot graves, it must make room for human progress even though it necessitates the extermination of these degendants of jail birds and prostitutes. JOHN H. OWENS. ```markdown ``` Legal Hints To Women By Violette N. Anderson, Attorney-at-Law Dear Madame: I filed suit for divorce three months ago with an attorney and he said if my husband did my husband did not answer it I could get it in four or five weeks. Now he says that I will have to wait until the end of February. Couldn't I get my money back and see another lawyer? 1939 No; if he filed the suit there may have been a very legitimate reason why the matter has not been reached and you should patiently wait the end of February. Your lawyer should have your entire confidence until he does something that you really know merits your distrust. The machinery of the courts does not move as rapidly as our desires. Anyone knowing anything of little Dessie L. Powell, about eleven years of age, formerly of New Orleans, La. whose address at one time was 2310 Wabash Avenue, will advise the Whip. It will be greatly to her advantage. Dear Miss Anderson: I am in love with a young man who wants to marry me, but he has got nothing in the world to go upon and more than that, he gets drunk. Do you think he would make a good husband for me? Please answer. Many happy marriages have come from the union of real lovers who had nothing to go upon but will-power, love and determination, combined with two strong arms each; but, when the Demon of Drink hovers by, nothing can come of it but misery for you both. Wait a long while—then look well before you leap. Dear Madame: I have a gentleman friend who has been separated from his wife two years. During that time he has and so has she found out that her first husband is still living. They had been separated for years, but never divorced, but she married again. Is my friend her husband legally, and on what ground can he get a separation from her and how? We love each other dearly, but will not be completely happy until he is free. A friend seeking advice. Your friend was not legally married if her husband was living and undivorced from her at the time your friend married her. He should have the marriage annulled on the ground that she had a living husband at the time of his supposed marriage to her. Dear Madame: From the answer I received last week. I don't know whether or not you meant it wasn't any of my affair the way my husband and another woman were living and I thought there was a law prohibiting people from living in adultery. Please let me hear further from you. Send me a self-addressed envelope and I will give you the information you desire privately, as you request. The Editor's Mail: Chicago, Illinois, Feb. 2, 1921 Editor William C. Linton: Chicago Whip, Chicago Sir—We the undersigned note with no small degree of satisfaction the announcement of your entrance into the Aldermanic race. We have realized for some time that the greatest hindrance to our progress as a people is the lack of an honest, progressive, intelligent and efficient leadership. We wish you to know that we are giving to you our support and will also lend our influence to help make your election sure.

Williams, D. D., Minister Last Sunday, being the first Sunday in the month, the main auditorium down stairs and the auditorium up stairs were both overflowed, and many people turned away. The pastor announced that all who cannot get in the church at 31st St. and South Park, will henceforth be given free passage to the 27th St. church house, in the Auto Bus, until the building at 31st St. can be enlarged. It is painful to see vast crowds of people making their way to the house of the Lord, hungry for some good news of the Kingdom, and have to be turned away: The pastor preached two powerful sermons: "The Bowl In The Clouds," was the subject of the moving discourse, and the audience was the theme of an eloquent appeal in the evening. Assistant H. B. Hawkins preached to a large audience upstairs in the morning, Rev. J. H. Branham preached on "The Feeding of The Multitude," at 27th Street, in the morning, and Rev J. C. Carroll preached in the evening on the "Value of The Soul." A large number of accessions were made during the day. The Young Men's Debating Club, of 27th Street, ably discussed the subject: Woman Suffrage last Monday night. Next Monday night, Feb. 21, they will debate the question of the Blue Sky Law. The speakers will be announced later. The Young Ladie Athletic Club is adding new interest to the social activities of the church. One of the features of the Club is basketball practice Tuesday and Friday evenings. The Day Nursery is enlarging its program, and extending its usefulness.
