CHAIN TWO TOGETHER THROW THEM INTO RIVER PRICE 5 CENTS CHAI DAILY PAPERS EXAGGERATE OHIO "RIOT" One Man And One Policeman Slightly Injured As Cops Terrorize Ohio City. Springfield, O., March 16—After the excitement spread throughout the country by extravagant reports of race rioting here Friday night, giving reports of wounded as amounting to eighteen, has died away, it may be authoritatively said that two people were wounded in the "rioting" which took place. The wounded are Shirley Shaffer, who received a slight scalp wound, and Policeman Joseph Ryan (white), who was wounded by James White, age 15. White was captured by a posse several miles north of Springfield, and pleaded guilty to the act in the Juvenile Court. Policeman Ryan is said to have been shot while attempting to disperse groups of citizens peacefully standing around in the streets. Feelings have been high among the whites since Margaret Ferneau, a young white girl is alleged to have been attacked by some unknown individual. After the shooting of Policeman Ryan, at Center and Jefferson Sts., scores of policemen rushed into the neighborhood. Considerable sniping then took place, in which Shaffer was wounded. Catch White Man With Dynamite Policemen arrested Asa Smith, white whom they charge with placing dynamic around homes in the vicinity of the trouble. During the days following the trouble, business house closed, and more fighting seemed imminent, but the presence of three companies of Ohio National Guardsmen quieted the situation. REVOLT LOOMS AS CHURCHILL TAKES REINS IN EGYPT ALEXANDRIA, March 16—Unrest which has been seething in the minds of Egyptians broke forth into open revolt Friday when natives made a demonstration against Winston Spencer Churchill, the new secretary for the colonies, who came to take up his duties here. Native police were stoned and compelled to flee. Reinforcements for the police that came up fired on the crowd, killing three persons and wounding others. Mr. Churchill avoided a hostile demonstration by students who were awaiting him at the station by leaving the train a few miles outside the city and motoring to his hotel. ALABAMA MINISTER THREATENED BY KLU KLUX Birmingham, Ala., March 16.—Federal authorities here received a report today from R. N. Hall, editor and publisher of the Baptist Leader, official organ of the Alabama Negro Baptist convention, of a visit to his office Friday of nine white men who warned him to cease publication of all articles referring to the Ku Klux Klan. The men who visited his office, Hall reported, were strangers. They told him, he said, that a series of articles appearing in the Leader, in which the Ku Klux Klan was mentioned, were objectionable and that publication of such matter must cease. Hall announced that the articles would be continued. The Leader is published under the direction of the convention, publication board and has a large circulation. Hall told the authorities that he asked the men their names and sought to learn whom they represented, but they were silent, he said, except to issue the warning. At a meeting of the publication board here today steps were taken to learn the identity and prosecute the men who invaded the office of the Leader, Rev. M. Thor...on, chairman, announced.

"A PAPER WITH A POLICY" The Chicago Whip AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY Luther Williams In A New Way Of Fighting. William Wentfield, age 46, 2906 Calumet Ave., was the victim of a new style of fighting last Saturday when he became involved in a fraces with his son-in-law, Luther Williams. It seems that the toe-hole and the double-wrist-lock were barred, but the rules stated nothing about biting. In a clinic which took place in the course of the fight, Williams bit off the lower lip of his father-in-law. The sharp toothed one is still at 'arge. ASK REMOVAL OF "STEAMROLLING" PASTOR ASK REMOVAL OF "STEAMROLLING" PASTOR NEW ORLEANS, March 16.—A movement against the alleged autocratic rule of Joseph A. Granderson, pastor of the First African Baptist Church of the Sixth District, was begun Wednesday, when C. W. Thompson and five other members of the church applied to the Civil District Court for a restraining order against the pastor's alleged illegal activities. Pastor Granderson, it is alleged, "illegally elected and re-elected himself a member of the board of trustees; constituted himself practically the whole board of trustees, said board having been made merely a figure-head; signed checks and disbursed church funds in accordance with his own desires, rendering no accounting; forced to resign or expelled from the church any member who opposed him." It is further alleged that Pastor Granderson called and held a meeting of about twenty-nine members out of a total membership of approximately 280, and raised his own salary regardless of the wishes of the congregation as a whole. By "steam-roller" methods, it is averred, he "has perpetuated himself in office from year to year, calling meetings only when it suits his will and holding illegal elections." After considering the complaints, Judge Rogers signed an order instructing Pastor Granderson, on March 18, to show cause why the relief prayed for should not be granted. PRISONER LYNCHED WHEN JURY DISAGREES PRISONER LYNCHED WHEN JURY DISAGREES Versailles, Ky., March 16.—When a jury of twelve men in the circuit court here announced that it was unable to determine the guilt of Richard James, on trial for the murder of two white men, lynch law took the situation in hand, decided the prisoner's guilt, and hanged him to a tree, two miles from the city. James was on trial for the murder of Ben Rogers and Homer Nave, white men who were guards at a distillery. The men were murdered by robbers seeking 40 ransack the place of whiskey kept there. Although it has been ascertained that white men did the robbing, it was left for James to bear the onus of the murder. Jailer John T. Edger of the Woodford County jail, is said to have surrendered his keys without a fight. James Fights Back It is said that as the mob reached and opened the door to James' cell, he used his fists and knocked senseless the first man to enter his cell. He was then overpowered by the others. RICHMOND WANTS RIOT Richmond, Va., March 16—Rumor says that white citizens in the eastern part of the city have armed themselves and are looking for trouble as the result of an alleged robbery in which two white men and one colored man, robbed the home of a white man, and holding a gun on the man, assaulted his wife. Advices do not say how the irate whites expect to split up responsibility for the crime, on account of the mixed racial identity of the robbers. SHOT DEAD, ALTHOUGH HANDCUFFED Norfolk, Va., March 16—Two white policemen went to the home of Benny Johnson, near the Richmond Cedar Works, to arrest him Sunday night. An hour later the police headquarters were notified that Johnson was dead. The officers explained that Johnson was dead shot dead trying to resist arrest. The officers neglected, however, to remove their prisoner's handcuffs before shooting him. He was found dead with them on. CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, MARCH 19th, 1921 OPEN BEGGAR'S GIFT BUREAU AT WASHINGTON Henry Linc Johnson Appoints Self President of The United Beggar's Of America. By Lupin Washington, March 16.—Jobs have given out here in Washington. President Harding has picked his "Kitchen Cabinet." His pantry boys and scullions have been named. His porters and window washers have received their appointments. But there are many of the "faithful" who are yet unrewarded. And the "faithful" MUST be rewarded. Else on next election day they would vote the bolshevik or any other ticket where they could scrape the pans of the victor. That is the extent of their "faith." In the absence of jobs for the Republican camp-followers, jobs must be created, and that is just what the mendicant politicians have set about to do. But President Harding and Secretary Mellon have sworn that they will guard the nation's treasury from plunderers "both at home and abroad," and have hung out the "No Help Wanted" sign on the Capitol. Another Bureau Created Forced by this exigency to cast about for other means to take care of their disappointed friends, and mindful of the fat days in Chicago last summer during and following the Republican National Convention, when they established and maintained the "Jim Crow Bureau for Colored Republican Speakers," they have decided to create another "bureau." According to statements issued by the "bureaucrats" themselves, their object will be "to line up forces for a great drive on the administration, to the end that remedial and effective legislation will be passed as promptly as possible." To this end they are asking "a small contribution from each lodge, church, school, organization, or individual." In other words, "President" Henry Lincoln Johnson, of the United Beggars of America has located his capital in Washington, and has named Perry W. Howard, of Mississippi, his Secretary of State. Other members of his cabinet will be named as fast as contributions come in to pay their salaries. There is one new feature about this latest plan of rehabilitating indigent politicians. In former days, our highbinding politicians followed the precedent set by Robin Hood, and preyed only upon the rich—that is, upon the wealthy Republican Party. Not so with these gentlemen they have turned up on their own blood, and like starving wolves in the frozen Arctic ice-fields, they are preparing to slay and devour the weakest of their own pack. Henry Lincoln Johnson has been referred to as "President," but that would imply that he is duly authorized to represent the "beggar race" at the nation's capital, and that he has the sanction of the mass of beggars themselves. Such is by no means the case. He has voluntarily assumed the beggar role, and it fits him excellently. But suppose among the twelve million people he claims to represent there are those would prefer in a movement like this to be represented by a different type of man! There is no relief for them. They have been so long swayed by mere oratory, that "he among who has the loudest mouth is leader of them all." So in a few days yours and my contributions will begin to find their way into the coffers of this new "bureau," ostensibly for the purpose of enacting legislation against lynching, etc., but actually for the purpose of providing an easy job for "Line" and his faithful followers. No doubt the drug store saloonist will be able to buy a new automobile in a few months. HIS SHARP TEETH BETTER THAN MEMPHIS COP'S GUN Memphis, Tenn., March 16.—Fighting with the teeth seems to be quite the vogue now, according to Policeman W. E. Crawford, who was bitten about the cheek, nose, and fingers when he attempted to arrest a gentleman of color who made good his escape without revealing his identity. During the melee the policeman's gun fell to the ground, and his would-be prisoner beat him to it. Leveling the gun at the policeman's feet, the victor ordered him to march off "at attention," after which, he made his escape. BULLETIN According to latest reports, Chas. Cottrell, of Columbus, O., has been appointed Register of the Treasury, and Editor Nelson, of the Wilmington, Del., Star, Recorder of Deeds. Ex-Service Man Shot In 33rd St. Cafe William Walker, age 27, of 2738 Wabash Ave., is an ex-soldier and is also disabled. He is living on a government pension. It appears, however, that he is not totally disabled. If his attitude in a restaurant at 7 E. 33rd St., is to be taken as a test of disability. It is claimed by witnesses that Walker insisted on carrying on a conversation with a waitress to such an extent that it could no longer be called a conversation, but should be properly classed a disturbance. Remonstrations by Isaac Cunningham, who was in charge of the restaurant resulted in an open state of war. Walker advanced on Cunningham in true skirmish fashion. Cunningham answered with a bullet. The bullet lodged in Walker's skull. Walker now lodges in Provident Hospital. BRANDS "YOUNG MOTHER'S STORY" A FRAMEUP BRANDS "YOUNG MOTHER'S STORY" A FRAMEUP Claiming that story appearing in a daily paper to the effect that he is being held for assault upon a white woman is based on a frame-up, Roy H. White, 3329 Indiana Ave., asks that publicity be given his side of the story. According to White, who is in charge of the Haymarket Theater Building, he had recommended the discharge of Jennie Antazek, white), 939 Will St. Mrs. Antazek, it is claimed swore revenge against White, and caused a warrant charging criminal assault to be sworn out against him. At the preliminary hearing in the Desplaines St. Court, March 7, the Antazek woman failed to make appearance, but sent a doctor's certificate saying that she was suffering from effects of the attack to the extent that she would be unable to appear in court. Nothwithstanding this, she was seen at a theater with her husband the night before. In the meantime, pressure has been brought to bear by Polish scrub-women in the Haymarket Theater who work under White, to have him discharged. Up to the present, however, the management of the theater has ignored this pressure, and White has continued on the job. The case comes up for trial March 18. MARCUS GARVEY IN THE WEST INDIES HAVANA, Cuba, March 7.—Marcus Garvey and his party passed through Havana en route for the West India Islands, where he will carry his message again with all of the enthusiasm and vigor which has so successfully molded the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the African Communities League. The Black Star line, which is also a product of Garvey's brain, will be used as tangible evidence of the feasibility of his colossal scheme, Scoffs at Foes. When told of the growing opposition against his movement and propaganda, Marcus smiled broadly, and said that "it was ever thus, and I expect to meet stormy opposition, but I shall conquer in the end." CRACK ANOTHER WHIP CRACK ANOTHER WHIP OMAHA, Neb., March 12.—The Chicago Whip is not the only Whip in the world. There is a brand new Whip, which is being published in Omaha. Its editor is George W Parker. It starts off with two ripsorting editions and seems to be destined to follow in the wake of its namesake. The Omaha Whip has already started a campaign against the Uncle Tom leaders in the western city, and seems to be willing to use the lash unsparingly. ARMY ALLOTTMENT GETS ATLANTA MAN IN PRISON ATLANTA, GA. March 16—Memories of Flanders fields and fat army allowance checks were revived in Judge Sibley's court here when Russ Warbington, a world-war veteran, was sentenced to three months in jail on charges of having secured army allowance checks for a woman not his wife. Warbington told the judge that his memory failed him when he forgot that he had married one woman eight years ago. Five years later he met Maggie Russel, and since he had forgotten, about his first wife, he thought it was all wrong. He was convicted of pecious of Federal checks cashed by the second wife caused Warbending's arrest. THROW INTO FUL SERVANT" "FAITHFUL SERVANT" JAS B NEWSOM Photo from Underwood & Underwood, N. Y.

WILD LOVE BREAKS DENIES THAT ARKAN- LOOSE AT 35TH AND SANS DROVE UNDER- STATE STREETS WOOD FROM BRINKLEY "When love is wild, there's no telling when or where it will loose its bonds." The atmosphere was calm and unruffled late Wednesday afternoon when Cellus Stokes, age 29, 3429 Prairie Ave, walked into the Palace Loan Shop on State St., near 35th, in company with his sweetheart, Dorothy Green, 3433 Wabash Ave. None of the pawnbrokers suspected anything amiss. Suddenly and without warning, as if driven by some irresistible impulse, Miss Green began firing at Stokes with a 22 calibre revolver. It is needless to say what the pawnbrokers did. As for Stokes, he sped south on State St., and west on 35th St. Slackening his speed, he sought to settle the affair amicably. Three more shots was the answer made by Miss Green. The last one lodged in his left cheek. They were both held for an explanation on this new and strange sort of love. USES HATCHET ON GIRL WIFE'S HEAD USES HATCHET ON GIRL WIFE'S HEAD SUFFOLK, VA. March 16. -Angered because Marie, Wells, his 16-year-old wife, was killed in a car accident, Wells seized a bathtet and inflicted what he thought was a fatal wound on his wife. After knocking her unconscious, he threw her into the water and then managed to crawl to a window and call for help. Physicians found her seriously, but only wounded about the head. Robert Wells, his wife, died. Read, Think and Act EIGHT PAGES Brinkley, Ark, March 16—Replying to newspaper stories that Dr. B. L. Underwood was driven from Brinkley, Ark, by white citizens of that town, influential citizens of this city, headed by Dr. J. E. Brooks, D.D.S., come out with a statement to the eefet that Dr. Underwood left Brinkley of his own volition, and that during his stay in Brinkley he was not the victim of any racial friction. It is claimed that Dr. Underwood attributes his departure from Brinkley to racial friction in order to hide the real reason. NEW ORLEANS COPS GET DRUNK;STAGERAID NEW ORLEANS COPS GET DRUNK;STAGERAID NEW ORLEANS, LA., March 16—Two New Orleans "cub" copers are asking each other how it happened last week when they attempted to stage a raid and found themselves arrested. They are James L. Thompson and Daniel Cahill, both white. After going off duty they wandered into the Aid and Pleasure Club at Toledano and Frerect Sts., carrying a bottle of wine in their hands, and according to written articles in the pleasure seekers, they rounded them up and called for the wagon. Sgt. Joseph H. Updike, a police officer, helped their copers drunk, released the club members and put the copes under arrest. The next day, six officers stripped them of their badges and dropped them. They forced them of one month. They had on the force about one month. PRICE FIVE CENTS THEM RIVER ARE WEIGHTED DOWN BY TWO HUGE STONES ARE WEIGHTED DOWN BY TWO HUGE STONES Boys Find Two Unditentified Bodies Floating In River. Had Been Dead Ten Days. Covington, Ga., March 16—Boys playing along the banks of the Yellow River at Allen's Bridge, 12 miles south of here discovered a human foot protuding above the waters, Sunday morning. Farmers summoned to the scene pulled out two human bodies. Bodies Tied Together They were the bodies of two full grown men, chained together about the neck, and weighted down with a 150-lb. stone. Doctors declared that the bodies had been in the water ten days. Sheriff Johnson of Newton County said that no one had been reported as missing in his county, and that the bodies must have drifted down from the upper reaches of the stream. A month ago there was racial trouble in Jasper County, and it is feared that the two unidentified bodies were the victims of race troubles in that county. Hundreds View Bodies Hundreds of people who came from miles around to view the bodies failed to identify the victims. The Yellow River is a tributary of the Ocumulgee River, and is at present about ten feet below normal. PAINLESS DENTISTS NOW SINGING BLUES PAINLESS DENTISTS NOW SINGING BLUES The New York Dentist of Painful reputation, at 35th and State Sts., who only a few weeks ago spent several thousands of dollars in preparing a "museum" and a subway to lure victims into it, and who also through its gullible, proprietors bull-dozed the ethical dentists and newspapers of this community by saying that nothing could be done to prevent them from getting rich quick at the expense of the public are now "singing the blues" for the lack of work. Lose Trade Through Carelessness It is alleged that Dr. Tarr, the head of the general corporation which also operates the Jim Crow Dental Parlors in the Loop where colored people are segregated, is much perturbed over the fact that his assistants at the 35th St. offices have burned the faces of his colored patients who have been induced to have X-Ray pictures taken of their teeth while under the influence of the siren voiced "barker" who lures unsuspecting and ignorant colored people into the museum. It is also said that the thoughts of facing the many big damage suits filed by colored people against them for alleged malpractice is causing him additional worry. The vigorous exposures which have been made by The Chicago Whip of the methods used by "the painless dentists" is evidently causing him to "sing the blues." INVITE SUGGESTIONS FOR MEDALLISTS INVITE SUGGESTIONS FOR MEDALLISTS The committee of award of the Spingarn medal, which every year is awarded to the man or woman of African descent and of American citizenship who shall have made the highest achievement during the preceding year in any field of elevated or honorable human endeavor, announces through its chairman, Bishop John Hurst of Baltimore, that it invites recommendations for the award of the Spingarn medal for 1920.

The medal is the gift of Mr. J. E. Spingarn, for several years chairman and now treasurer of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and the committee of award is as follows: Bishop John Hurst, chairman; Hon. William Howard Taft, Mr. John Hope, Dr. James H. Dillard and Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard. Recommendations are to be sent by April 1 to Bishop John Hurst, chairman of the committee of award of the Spingarn medal, Room 621, 70 Fifth avenue, New York. SOUTHERN WHITES ARE HUNGRY Louisville, Ky., March 16—Innis Stokes, age 21, was held up at 12th St. and Ormsby Ave., and robbed by two white men of $57. Stokes lives at 1024 Zane St. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures. In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils. One of America's Millionaires, Charles Stillman, is suing his wife for a divorce. The Correspondent in the case is a half breed Indian whom the papers describe because of his physical beauty as "Apollo Belvidere." Imagine what he would have been called had it been suspected that he had a little African blood? A big burly black brute. It is alright if you are not associated with the black race. It makes no difference if your tommyhawk does drip with blood from the scalps of white women. The curse of American prejudice. Before the cut in wages can result in a strike it is already rumored that the black people are going to scab. Nobody respects a scab because he is always kicked out as soon as grievances are settled. The black people are getting away from the fence which they have straddled so long and if they are encouraged just a little bit will certainly be potent factors in relieving the conditions of wage slavery which submerges the common people. Give them a chance. Many little spurious businesses are putting their stocks on the markets and are offering them for sale to our people. Many high flights have been taken in oil and real estate. A man with a good proposition is made to suffer for crimes which others have perpetrated upon the public. If persons do not know of the value of stocks and the potentialities of new business concerns they should seek expert advice. The faith of the race must not be shattered. Our business relations with each other must be preserved. An example of the profligacy of the white press is the "play up" of the so-called Springfield, Ohio, riot of last week. Most of the great dailies published accounts of fourteen black men being shot in the melee when as a matter of fact only two people were shot, one of whom was a white policeman. No one approves of bloodshed and riot reign, but why always picture the ground strewn with dead black men when others too lose their lives in the lawlessness. We understand why Mr. Sinclair wrote his famous expose of the American Press, The Brass Check. It is reported that one of the largest if not the largest of all newspapers which are published by black people has been placed upon the pay roll of "the most crooked political machine since the time of Nero." How are the political, social, and economic interests of the Black people to be espoused when its loudest newspaper has its mouth plastered with dollar bills? Yet it claims that it is the mouthpiece of the black folk. Is there any wonder that we are given the crumbs from the American festival?

Pittsburgh.Pa "NOSEY" SEES ALL KNOWS ALL A man in a suit pushes a door. NOSEY WAS invited to a new kind of party the other night. It might be called a "stunt party." After everybody had danced and partaken of the wildest kind of "hootch" ever brewed in a bath tub the real part of the "night works" was pulled off. The person who won the first prize was that one who performed the wildest stunt. The "stunt" that very nearly broke up the party was the one which called for the overstout lady to sit in the electric chandelier. It came down and so did the lady and some of the plaster in the flat below. She told her husband the next morning that she bruised her head falling down the stairs, but Nosey knows better, and does not wonder any longer why certain ladies in "high circles" seem so bored when they attend an ordinary dance party without either hooch or "stunts." ONLY SEVEN MEN besides Nosey know why the little lady who wears five diamond rings on her fingers and lives in "quality row" on Calumet avenue, looks twice at every man who wears a derby hat. She is trying to recover her husband's little brown derby which was taken by mistake in the hurried exit of a stock salesman who came in the morning and left at night. The husband has not missed it yet and she knows she cannot get one just like it—initials 'n everything. She hopes to find the cute little salesman who can talk from morning till night and entertain her that long on his first visit. She wants the derby back and she admits that she also wants to hear the little salesman talk some more about his "stock". For the information of the salesman, his little derby has been burned. The lady is not good at explaining and particularly about hats, as this is the second time it has happened. SOME MEN act too quickly when the see a kimona and boudou cap. That explains why there was such a screaming in the second flight up in the "Glory" Apartments on Indiana avenue in the "Home Brew Row". One gentleman saw what he thought to be his wife go into the apartment across the hall and land in the arms of a "bronze Apollo". He followed her and started to administer a real chastisement, only to find out that the lady was merely wearing his wife's kimona and cap and that the lady was the wife of a popular taxi driver who lived on the floor below and was a dear friend of his own wife. The "bronze Apollo" merely smiled at the disturbance and lighted a cigarette. It was only an incident common to his day's or night's work. Nosey helped the irate husband apologize, but she merely got mad and hurled the kimona and cap in the face of the mistaken husband and hurried down stairs "as she was". Nosey blushed, smiled, shrugged his shoulders and samtered out into the sunlight and pure air. ON TUESDAY night about ten thirty, Nosey was standing on the corner of 34th and Cottage Grove waiting for the lady of his heart, when a nicely dressed grey-haired lady with a pleasant face came along and went up to the two young pale faced men standing near Nosey. Nosey heard this nice lady tell the pale faced ones all about her beautiful flat and the wonderful girls who came to see her. Nosey knows the little ladies that visit this apartment and could have told the nice old grey-haired lady the date she made for Thursday with the pale faced ones for her visiting friends will not be kept as the husbands of both of these society matrons will be back in the city from New York on Thursday. Too bad, because the old lady will have to do it all over and the pale faced ones looked like they were ready money, too. YOU SHOULD have seen the prominent undertaker buying silk stockings down at Marshall Field's last Monday morning. It hurt him like everything to purchase the second pair for the same lady, but last Saturday he went home before he went out for the evening and the good wife happened to open the package in his overcoat pocket and found a beautiful pair of hose which she immediately concluded were hers, not knowing, like Nosey, what the good husband does on his "nights out." The wife did not catch him, but Nosey followed him from the hose counter to the telephone booth and heard him tell the little nurse on Rhodes avenue that he was delayed with the stockings but was bringing them out forthwith. Both ladies seemed to believe the pleasant talking gentleman and both thought that each was the idol of his heart. Another case of "Silk Stockings." A NEW WAY TO GAIN PUBLICITY.

The plans call for the rais- ing of '$20.000 among white citizens and $10,000 among members of the race, The setting up of the campaign, which is to start in April, has already begun. Dr, M. O. Bousefield, the pop- ular and aggresive physician, is chair- man of the campaign committee, upon which many of Chicago's most reputa- ble citizens are to serve. "No one,” said Mr, Hill, “who is truly interested in his race can afford to rieglect the Urban League's appeal, The standing of the league is equal to that of any other similar associa- tion, Tt is endorsed by the Agsocia- tion of Commerce and the Central Council of Social Agencies: its books are audited hy reputable certified publie accountants; its members and contribu- tors include some of Chicago's most careful citizens; and its uncompromis- ing and aggressive program for racial development has achieved beneficial and far-reaching results in. practically every phase of Negro life “Ten thousand dollars from, 110,000 people is a modest request from’ an organization that ministered to the so- cial needs of 30,000 people last year and gave employment to more than 15,000 “Do not wait for the drive to begin or for a solicitor to call upon you.

Ne- groes were satisfied with alien races leading and guiding them. ‘The Negro was taught that the white race was all wisdom and jastice, he was taught to carry his grievances to the white man for adjustment, to consult him in ail business and legal transactions. The Negro blindly did this. The Cau- casians inculeated their ideals and traditions into the soul of the Negro; who in past lost their true Negro traditions and self-reliance, The force of racial cohesion was broken and the race has suffered from individual leadership. Every prominent Negro was considered a leader hence there was no centralized objective and the race was a ship without a rudder, A storm arose in the name of the World War and this old ship, the Negro race, was promised to be towed in port; the storm abated, the cable of hope was broken. the waters still tur- bulent, tossed this grand old race toward the grim craggy rock of chaos, Looking toward the horizon for the last time, there was inner giv- ing from the angry boiling muttering sea of clouds a ray of hope, this light grew brighter and brighter till all the clear blue sky could Pe seen and there appeared a raven with most prominent colors which were red, black and green in the rainbow of hope and in it could be seen the letters U, N. 1.

"It is very soothing and cooling in its action, as well as beneficial to both scalp and hair. After rinsing out the lather so created, you will find the scalp is fresh, clean and free from dandruff, while the hair dries quickly and evenly, developing a bright luster and a soft fluffiness that makes it seem very heavy.

The question was skilfully handled by Miss Mary Randolph, affirmative, and Mr. Irvin A. Jackson, negative.

Standard Literary Society, beware! Irvin A. Jackson, Reporter. The Standard Literary Society By Percy R. Hines More than one thousand persons were present at the Standard Literary Society of the Olivet Baptist Church, Sunday afternoon, March 13th, and listened to an able sermon by the Rev. Haywood of the Salem Baptist Church. The subject for general discussion was, "Can a woman render more service in the professional world than in the home?" This subject was touched upon briefly by Attorney W. E. King, Col. Franklin A. Denison, formerly of the 370th Infantry; Dr. L. K. Williams, the pastor; all of whom emphasized the fact that home is the heart of a nation; the foundation of civilization, and that the women would be performing a valuable task by taking care of the home all of which was well taken. The choir from the Salem Baptist Church was also present and rendered many beautiful selections, some of them being so well rendered that they were called upon a second and third time.

Robinson, well-known as the "wheelman", in gaining a writ of supersedeas from the Illinois Supreme Court, has alarmed the railroad interest to the extent that they invited him to send a representative to Washington, D. C., for the purpose of settling his claims without further litigation. It is said that at the conference in Washington representatives of the railroads offered to compromise the case by paying a part of the huge judgment which the doctor has secured and in addition they offered to pay to the doctor all costs of court action up to the present. In reply to these representations it is said that Dr. Robinson flatly refused to enter into any compromise with the railroads, but declared that he would fight the case through to the finish, and not allow the railroad interests to keep one cent which they have wrongfully withheld from him for over twenty years. Close observers of the case are of the belief that the case against Dr. Robinson is now on its last legs, and that in the very near future he will be in position to collect his judgments. WHO'S WHO IN CHICAGO CONTEST There is much speculation about who will be the winner of the first prize in the oratorical contest at South Park M. E. Church, 300 South Park Ave. on Monday, March 28th. Some people think certain doctors will be mentioned. Some think some political leaders will come in for the lion's share of the favorites, others think some of the ministers are sure to be the choice of the first six. Much is being said about the personnel of the orators. It is the opinion of many that there never was a contest held in Chicago that had as many fine speakers as this one. There is one thing that the public may be sure of when the contest is over. America will know who is rated as the leaders of the race in this city. P. A. Glanton is talked of as the Silver Tongue orator. M. C. B. Mason is known as the prize winner. Mrs. James Lillard has few equals on the platform. E. A. Jackson always goes in to win. W. E. Mitchell is a man of facts. N. S. Taylor is a speaker of no mean ability. Urban League's Relief Work Recognized Appreciation for the work of the Chicago Urban League in centralizing relief for the colored men and women in Chicago has come from many influential and highly informed people. In a recent article in the Chicago Daily News, Dr. Graham Taylor, Dean of Social Work in Chicago, said: "Among the colored people of the south side the unemployment situation is being handled with better effect because with more intelligence and co-operation, though the men were more helpless and the agencies less resourceful. This better handling was due to the fact that the Urban League, headquarters at 3032 South Wabash avenue, acts as a clearing house to receive and distribute all applications of unemployed men for shelter and food." Of equal significance is the comment of Charles W. Folds, president of the United Charities, who presided over a meeting of the United Charities to which was made a report of an investigation by representatives of the Department of Health, the Central Charity Bureau, the Association of Commerce, and the United Charities: "As the report showed such excellent work being done by the Urban League in organizing the activities of the various agencies on the south side, the directors of the United Charities requested me to write to you expressing their thanks and commendation for the excellent and efficient services which the Urban League has been rendering during the past few months." But according to T. Arnold Hill, the league's executive secretary, the credit for the success of the work should be shared by the churches, clubs and organizations that are co-operating. "The league has had," said Mr. Hill, "in this venture as it has had in all of its undertakings, the unselfish co-operation of churches, clubs and agencies. Without this magnanimous support, no effort of ours could have succeeded. Among the churches which have furnished meals, sleeping accommodations, or both, are: Bethel A. M. E., Morning Star Baptist, Salem Baptist, St. Mary's A. M. E., Grant Memorial Chapel, and Quinn Chapel. Unstinted appreciation should go to the people of the community for their constant and loyal services to the unemployed men. Several churches and women's clubs, the names of which will be announced later, have contributed to the fund for the support of these men. Practically every appeal the league has made has brought results. This co-operation, however, has not been due entirely to the league. The Citizens' Relief Committee of Chicago, of which Rev. S. L. Birt is chairman, and Wm. L. Evans is secretary, was formed in order to give direction to the plans and policies which should govern the conduct of the work. The committee is composed of representatives of churches, the Y. M. C. A., the Y. W. C. A., and other interests interested in the welfare of the community. The executive committee of this association has been faithful and loyal. It has met at every call, and on many occasions has registered a 100 per cent attendance. And so the league feels that all of the individuals and groups that have joined to make the work a success should be complimented because of the commendation of their work. The fact that the relief measures for unemployed men of our race are recognized to be bet ter systematized and more effectively at work than those in any other section of the city is a record of which all who shared in making it should be proud." South Bend, Ind. SOUTH BEND, Ind—Mr. and Mrs. O. C. Haynes, Mrs. Dora Kurtrell and Mrs. Rosa Bell motored to Elkhart Wednesday, March 9th, the occasion being a birthday party at the Elkhart A. M. E. Church, Rev. Chas, Bell, pastor. Bishop J. M. Conners preached to a delighted congregation Sunday at Olivet A. M. E. Church. Mr. Henry N. Hill, special deputy supreme chancellor, spent Wednesday in Cassopolis, Mich., setting up a K. of P. lodge. At a special meeting of the executive committee, Mr. H. L. Williams was appointed drive colonel. Mr. Williams is a very able man. South Bend does not contain a man more capable than he. Now watch the drive. The Frazier Universal Carburetor Company met Wednesday at the K. of P. hall to devise plans for marketing the only floatless carburetor. "It is astonishing to know the beneficial results one may obtain from the constant use of Madam C. J. Walker's Superfine Toilet Preparations." Why, they are an assortment of Toilettes suited to the needs of every complexion and beneficial to the most languid scalp." These preparations guaranteed to be the equal of many higher priced preparations and are absolutely free of any injurious contents. Mr. Archie Cocran is on the sick list. Here's hoping Arch will improve rapidly. Miss May Dulin, formerly of South Bend, now a teacher in the public schools of Terre Haute, will spend her spring vacation visiting her parents in South Bend. Welcome to our city, Miss Dulin.

Mr. Frank Porter passed away Tuesday, March 8th. The remains were shipped to New Orleans after a short funeral service at the chapel of Lewis & Mahone, Rev. H. L. Williams officiating. St. Peter's Lodge No. 31, F. A. M., took charge of the funeral services. Have you noticed how everybody asks if you have seen this week's Whip? Buck Bennet, the tailor, will be ready for business Monday, and if you want real repairing, cleaning, pressing and clothes made to order, he is the man for you to see. And yet a certain colored gent ordered a $60 suit from a white concern when we have five very competent young men in that business here. Birdsell street is rapidly becoming the Negro business street. Rev. James Smart motored to Marion, Ind., on business. The wise old owl of the Whip, who sees everything, was asked if he was going to put in the paper the arrival of a certain person. Well, not very likely. Rev. Charles Bell, Indiana's silver-tongued orator, is on the warpath for the N. A. A. C. P. Prof. Joseph Artig was just in to see the old wise man. Additional Club News.

"Now you who cannot give a dollar, give less; ninety-seven cents, ninety-two cents or even eighty-two cents. We need—well, everything!" Rev. Henderson at Institutional. "God does not make perfect individuals, because perfection would hurt us all. That's why God made so many of you women bald-headed—you are so good-looking otherwise." Rev. Dr. Isaacs at Olivet. "Many sisters are saying, 'I want money of my very own!' Now I believe the women should bring their money and lay it in their husband's lap." Sermon by Rev. Isaacs. (Not be asbamed to let him see it.) "Say, Buddy, don't you go to church? The Lord certainly will bless you. At Trinity they give beans, coffee and soup and taters. Over at Twenty-seventh and Dearborn it is soup, meat, coffee and, gee, the Lord certainly provides for his children!"—Unemployed Man. Question: "Why is the pastor standing around posing, first in the chair stand then in the entrance ways, while some other minister is preaching for him?"—Visitor to a large church. Answer: That brother wearing the Prince Albert, hard-boiled shirt and white vest with the glasses to match is the custodian. The quietly attired man in rear of the speaker is the pastor—Member.

He returns to employment this week. Ladies' day at the Standard yesterday (Sunday) was a bit irregular, since on this date the lady president should have been invited to the chair. The ladies are crying that this was not done. The lady (Mrs. Galloway) was there, looking fine and all. Please remember, Mr. Parrish, other Sundays are yours.

The Young People's Society of Institutional! Really, we must advise the family to sit up straight and take notice. Especially should the Metropolitan Sunday Evening Club watch its step if it would not be surpassed in literary offerings and musical suggestions. Miss M. N. Lewis, mistress of ceremonies, and chairman of program committee, presented a program Sunday that is very, very hard to equal. We especially caution Grace Lyceum, St. Mark's Lyceum, Bethel Literary and two organizations meeting at Community House that you had better "pick up the young lambs" and be moving—that's all! Even the J. Wesley Jones aggregation has pulled nothing cleaner than that program by Miss Lewis last Sunday. There were so many excellent things presented we cannot enumerate them here. Just get a program from last Sunday and read it and mark "all good." Dr. J. M. Henderson is pastor. (This is not paid advertisement, but good news to the family alone.)

THE GRAND At last! A real relief has come after many months of Stock Musical Comedy Gags, we have at last realized our hopes. Yes, vaudeville in all its glory and variety made its appearance at the Grand last week. The bill of fered was as good a bill as you can see in any of the loop variety houses and the packed house was evidence enough that the fans welcome this change of policy. A daring Japanese actor opened the show in a deathslide on a rope suspended from the balcony to the stage. Harry Fiddlen and Miss Perry entertained in second spot to the pleasure of all and the Kinky Doo Trio, by the way, the real hit of the bill stormed the house. It is a real act, their opening number "Mammy" was put over in good harmony singing style and Miss Lillian Goodnow, who has a beautiful soprano voice rendered a classic number and Dave Peyton's new song hit "Roumania." Little Kinky Doo (Madalean Cooper), and Mildred Pelibone furnished the comedy and dancing portions. The girls really stepped, some act, some wardrobe, and a gang of bows. "Izzeta" the famous accordian player was a hit on the bill direct from the big time and Frank Rogers, the ventilboquist was a laugh getter with his dummies and his act of ventilboquism. Other acts of standard type were Bennington and Scott, Rivoli and the Juggling Normans. This show will remain one week only. THE AVENUE The play without a name is the offering here this week, played by the Lafayette Players. THE CABARETS The beautiful Dreamland is packed nightly with pleasure seekers and one looking for it will find it here. Joe Oliver's band, Alberta Hunter, Justine McCarthy and Mr. Crump furnish the entertainment. With the Actors. Andrew Bishop is in town resting for a few days. Andrew has something under his hat that he won't tell anybody about. The music spillers are in the city for the week, playing with the Peek A Boo Burlesque Company. Andrew Copeland and Doc Straine have joined hands in an act and will open next week. Brown and Gulliport are on the bill at the American Theater, Chicago, this week. Lelia Mitchell and her jazz band was a decided hit at the Marlone Theater last week. Chas. Van is the booking agent for the Grand Theater. Aets get in touch with him. Doe Doe Green, closed his show at the Grand on last Sunday night. Doe Doe is a good actor and the next time should not let himself be hampered by would-be producers who think they know show business and have found out that it takes brains to try and hold a house down for sixteen weeks, it doesn't pay to build aircastles, as a certain big-headed producer has done, as you will be called upon to make good, and you can't deliver, come on down on the level and you will be thought a whole lot more off, and don't go around trying to make the public think you are such a big man with influence enough to cause certain people to lose their jobs, don't do it as it looks small. Miller and Lyles big show opened at Newark, New Jersey, last week, reports are fine concerning the show. THE MONOGRAM Ben Shook's Company of taboloid players opened big here on Monday night. Ollie Burgonie, the classic oriental dancer and Medall Thompson the comedian being featured. The show is above the average seen here, the comedy is clean and the music good, and (oh, yes), the girls are beautiful, especially in the native Hawaiian Dances. Miss Burgonie ably puts over "Sweet Daddies" and the comedians, who are funny, break up the show, in Tony Jackson's song hit, "I'm Cert'ny Going to See About That." Bessie Simms does a neat oriental dance and Little Clara Lewis is a knockout in her eccentric Hawaiian dance. A good show and don't miss it, the place is "The Little Majestic," Martin (Bedk) Klein, manager. THE ROYAL GARDENS May Brady's band is a real attraction at this dance palace. Horace George's Jazz Band was entertained here on last Friday night. Mr. Virgil Williams, the proprietor, is still in California.

What was in her woman's heart that cried for the love of this uncutch man of the plains? A man she was ashamed to introduce to her cultured friends!

"HIS BROTHER'S KEEPER" At the Vendome Theatre, Sunday, March 20th, featuring Martha Mansfield and Rogers Lytton.

"The Greater Claim," featuring Alice Lake, at the Vendome Theatre, "Give her up," his wealthy father warned "Chuck," that unless he left the pretty chorus girl he would ship him to sea.

C., March 16—The Washington public is being stirred to great enthusiasm over the announcement that Charles S. Gilpin, whose marvelous acting in O'Neill's "The Emperor Jones," at "The Princess Theatre," New York City, has made him the sensation of the season, will appear in the stellar role in that play in Washington at the Belasco Theatre, Monday, March 28, supported by the well known Howard University Players. Mr. Gilpin's triumphal appearance at the Drama League banquet at the Hotel McAlpin was one of the four greatest actors in America, marked one of the greatest achievements ever won by a Negro. His unprecedented rise in a few weeks to a foremost place on the American stage marks an epoch in the progress of the colored people and should be an inspiration to the youth of the race. The play will be staged at the Belasco Theatre, one of Washington's finest show houses, Easter Monday, March 28, at 11 o'clock. Additional performances will be given at Miner Normal School, April 1 and 2, and will feature a new star as "The Emperor Jones" in the person of George Williams, a Howard University student "ARE ALL MEN ALIKE" Featuring May Allison, at the States Theatre, Saturday, March 19. A gorgeous, glittering presentation of night life in New York—and a girl who paid. Founded upon Arthur Stringer's novel, Setting forth the smares and pitfalls of life among the artists' studios in New York's Greenwich Village. Wherein purity and passion war for supremacy. An object lesson to young girls who are indiscreet and care-free. Music Notes By Mildred Bryant--Jones Voice production has two entirely different sides—physical and mental. The physical side is greatly in evidence with the untrained singer who tries to unduly use his throat and tongue in producing force. The trained singer, of course, realized that a good pure tone must be produced with conscious mechanical effort and earnest work must be given to acquiring the ability to give forth perfect tones in the proper manner. This automatic control of the physical side of voice production is the result of correct and unstinted study and practice. Hence the absolute need of a capable and conscientious teacher. To the student who finds himself hand-capped in this regard a few hints along the line of correct procedure may be in order. The chest should be lifted and kept high while singing so that the lungs may have a chance and that the voice may have resonance. It is not quite as easy as one might suppose to maintain this correct chest position. It is a matter of development, and here again must be stressed the idea of that and constant, regular practice. Avoid any pressure from the throat. As the basis of all good singing is correct breathing and control of the breath, the very first thing to learn is how to breathe to the greatest advantage. The diaphragm should be used in trying to press the air up against the chest and the throat left open. It is ridiculous to try to get a pint of water in a pint cup which is not in condition to receive a pint. The cup must be clear of trash to the bottom and the same thing is true of the lungs. They must be filled from the bottom with air if the best tones are to be given. Practicing with the mouth closed is sometimes a great help, especially in the case of those who are inclined to shout and to exaggerate their vocal powers. Sing softly to obtain good results, and when necessary, sing very softly. It is not possible to shout one's way into real singing.

ADVERTISING RATES ON APPLICATION WITH DUE REGARD FOR RIGHT, WITH PURITY OF MOTIVE IN OUR EXPRESSION, WITH CONSCIENTIOUS COMPASSION FOR STRICKEN HUMANITY, WITH UNSTINTED CREDIT TO THOSE WHO MERIT, WITH TRUTH AS OUR GUIDE POST AND LOVE AS OUR INSPIRATION, WE HAVE COMMITTED OURSELVES TO THE WORLD OF JOURNALISM. WE HAVE DEDICATED OURSELVES TO PUBLIC SERVICE. For Example It is indeed interesting to observe how the Jewish people are receiving the attacks of Henry Ford in the columns of the "Dearborn Independent," which is reputed to be owned by the automobile magnate. The attacks, which savor of religious and race hatred, are directed toward the whole Jewish race, and are made unsparingly and indiscriminately. The Jews are held responsible for the war, profiteering, corrupt politics, and the aggregate sins of humanity are laid at the door of the unfortunate "sons of Israel." We do not propose to rave and cant over the unfair charges of Mr. Ford. We do not challenge the accusers of the wandering race. The cross that the Jews are made to bear is revolting to all finer human sensibilities. The thorns that pierce their sides and the sight of their bleeding flesh does not give company to our misery. We are common sufferers who know the same heel that crushes our Jewish brother. The oppression of the weak by the strong with attendant agony does not receive our sanction. We hate it, we abhor it. We despise the system of public opinion which feasts upon it, but the Jews are stronger at present than we, and from their methods of resentment, we have much to learn. The Jews are not sending petitions to Ford praying for "a cessation of hostilities," neither do the Jewish Rabbis preach of the Lord's vengeance and his reprisal. They are merely removing their corner stones of dollars from Ford's mammoth industry. They are carrying silent propaganda against this industrial demagogue, and at the same time they are aiding the divine forces in destroying evils and iniquities. The Jews are resenting their injuries and insults by striking into the most vital spot in the hydra-headed monster of American prejudice—that is, his pocketbook. The wily Jews knowing "that rank is but the guinea's stamp," realizing that the mystery of power in America is merely the dollar sign, have decided to use the almighty dollar to humble Ford's pride, and by withdrawing their patronage from his institution, to cut so deeply into his flesh, that when the truce which must be called in the end, comes, it will emanate from Ford, and not from the "mouth of Abraham." The efficacy of the Jews' counter-attack is unquestionable. Their method is simple and unassailable. The philosophy behind the action of the Jew is plain. It is merely this: "If our money is tainted and blood-stained, according to Ford, let us contaminate him no further with it." No longer will the Jews purchase the famous Ford automobiles. To them it has become a thing of evil. It is vile and loathsome. They shun it. Will they purchase one of Ford's cars? Absurd. But not only that, they will purchase nothing which is conveyed in a Ford car. "Take it back," says the Jew; "We can't use it." With this emphatic refusal no other explanation is given. This constant and repeated refusal of goods causes the consignor to investigate, and lo, and behold, he finds that Henry Ford is causing his firm tremendous losses. His pocketbook has been hit. He immediately dispenses forever and a day with the "Tin Lizzie," and the race hatred generated from its engines. The Black Man, being attacked by various agencies, should pattern his counter-attack after that of the Jew. Let our dollars help destroy the agents of prejudice and discrimination. The buying power of the Black Man is a factor and a mighty one. Twelve million Black People must use the common commodities of life. At least twenty-four million dollars is bartered and traded from their hands daily. Should these dollars be marshalled away from our enemies and into the coffers of our friends, we would have more friends and less enemies. We would suffer less if we made our suffering painful to our executors. It is opportune time for the Black Man to use his dollars for his own best interests. A close study of the Jew will be of inestimable value to our newspapers and organizations, and to every individual of the Black Race himself. Let us take this method of the Jew "FOR EXAMPLE" and then make example of those who make our lives miserable. Help! Help! g sent to various "represen- dges, churches and school Howard and Henry Lin- sement and the Ku-klux asent or the advisement of Ave., Washington, D. C. They have decided that out our problems, or at retense. es that Henry Lincoln Jo Letters are being sent to various "representative" members of the black race, to the lodges, churches and schools asking for funds to be used by Perry Howard and Henry Lincoln Johnson to fight lynching, disfranchisement and the Ku-klux. These "gentlemen" have, without the consent or the advisement of the race, established at 1216 Pennsylvania Ave., Washington, D. C., a "Bureau of Racial Legislative Relief." They have decided that it is encumbent upon themselves to work out our problems, or at least they want some money under that pretense. The letter states that Henry Lincoln Johnson, great man, has given his time, his means and his energy in the unselfish support of our cause and that it certainly ill becomes us to allow him to continue to draw upon his poverty. This statement is an insult to our intelligence and should receive the condemnation of the press, the church, the lodge and the "representative members" themselves. In Chicago last summer these same povertystricken gentlemen operated a Jim Crow speakers bureau and spent nine thousand dollars in manners that will not bear close inspection. This Perry Howard from Mississippi who signs the appeal for funds was one of the "race leaders" who operated that bureau. Lots of money was spent paying tribute to Bacchus and other Gods of Pleasure. It is regretted that these gentlemen shall persist in seeking prosperity at our expense. We do not need them to give us any legislative relief. We are inclined to think that these shrewd politicians are seeking to relieve themselves of want and penury at our expense. We suggest that Mr. Howard seek funds for transportation to parts in the sunny south and that the other "race leader" replenish himselfs from his Robinson Crusoe, Ben Davis, of Atlanta, Ga. Shame on them. COLORED SYNDICATE PHOTO BY HEAD Legal Catechism By Herman E. Moore, Attorney-at-Law Question—I loaned some money to a man and took his note for the pay- ment of it. After the note became due and he did not pay it, I gave the note to a law- yer. I find now that the note has been lost. Is there any way I can collect the money without this note? Answer—Yes, if you can make sufficient showing and have sufi- cient evidence to to prove the debt or the agreement made between yourself and the other party, you can obtain judgment in the case. Question—I purchased a piece of property some time ago and had the deed made out in my wife's name. She has made out a deed which I am to use in case she dies. This second deed has not been recorded. Would this deed protect me if she should die and the children claimed a share of the property? Answer—Apparently this second deed from your wife to yourself is not a completed instrument, as delivery to the grantee is one of the essential requisites of a deed. In this case you had better have your wife make a will in your favor. Question—Where a child has been adopted by foster parents, who died and left him some money, can he be compelled to assist his own mother, who is in very needy circumstances? He is now over 21 years of age. Answer—No. Not unless he can be persuaded to do so of his own volition. Question—Who is entitled to the property of a bachelor who dies and whose only living relatives are some cousins? Are the daughters of his stepmother entitled to a share of the property? Answer—In the absence of a will, the cousins are entitled to the property. The daughters of his stepmother can take no portion of the property except by will providing for the same. Question—Are companies liable for accidents to their employees while they are in the course of the work for the company? Answer—Ordinarily, yes. If the facts are such as to warrant suit the same can be brought. If not, petition for compensation can be maintained before the Industrial Accident Board Consult an attorney and give him the facts and let him advise you further. Question—Is it true that a divorce can be obtained on the grounds of incompatibility of temperament? Answer—Depends upon what you mean by "incompatibility of temperament." There is on record a rather recent case in which a divorce was granted on the grounds of incompatibility of temperament, but the records in the case show that the acts committed in the case amounted to more than is popularly understood and meant by the phrase "incompatibility of temperament." If you mean mere incompatibility of tastes and contrary disposition, accompanied only with diverse wishes and likes on the part of the parties making it impossible for them to agree on matters that concern them, but accompanied by no acts of violence on the part of one of the parties amounting to cruelty or the like, then this would not be a valid ground for divorce. It is true, however, and the courts will recognize the fact, that some people have a higher sensibility than others, and acts which might constitute extreme cruelty to some people of a high degree of sensibility would not constitute such cruelty when applied in the case of others. In such a case where the extreme delicacy of feelings is involved, it is a matter of considering all of the facts in the case in order to determine the extent of the injury in any given case.

Inquiry: Will you kindly answer these questions through the columns of the Chicago Whip? What are the causes of pimples? I am a young man 20 years old and I have never had any veneeral complaint, but recently pimples have been breaking out on my back and face. Do you think my blood is poisoned? PETER B. Answer: Young man, very few human beings exist without occasionally having a few pimples on their backs. Most young men have many pimples on the face just as the beard is about to grow. Many people are always very much troubled with pimples in consequence of poor digestions. The wise thing to do is to ask your family physician to cure them. Your family physician, being an honest man, will carefully study the cause of your pimples. If they are of the kind that can be cured by changes in your diet he will tell you what to eat, so that you may get rid of your pimples. If they are the kind that need medicine, he will prescribe the proper ones for you. If, however, they are not the kind that need medicine, or get well of themselves, he will advise you to do nothing for them, because anything you might take or do will only make you sick. You spoke in your letter about you never having any venereal diseases. There is only one venereal disease that produces any breaking out on the body and that is syphilis Gonorrhea very seldom, if ever causes a breaking out on the body. It is classified as a local disease. The same can be said of chancroidal infections. Y. M. C. A.

Despite the unsettled weather, a large crowd was in attendance. Hon.

Berean choir presented very pleasing chorus numbers, with Miss Esther Henderson as soloist. Mr. J. C. Stith, formerly of the Lafayette Players, a dramatic artist with rare ability, gave a reading, "The Merchant of Venice," by Shakespeare, and was the recipient of much applause. The singing of the mixed quartet—namely, Mrs. M. W. Doxie, Mrs. M. Stringiellow, Mr. W. M. Brooks and Mr. N. Hagen, was one of the pleasing features of the program.

Isaac, of Nashville, Tenn., preached at 27th St., and the Rev. Dr. J. T. Brown, of Cairo, Ill., and the Rev. Dr. Graves of Harrisburg, Ill., preached at 31st St. and South Park. In the evening the house was crowded to its utmost capacity to hear Dr. Isaac deliver a very instructive sermon on "A Physical Deformity Is a Heavenly Necessity." A few weeks ago the officers and trustees announced that they wanted $5,000 on the second Sunday in March. In accordance with that desire at the close of the services last Sunday night, without any demonstration whatever, the various auxiliaries, members and friends quietly laid on the table just $5,800.00 (five thousand and eight hundred dollars), and they are still several clubs and circles to report. The Bible Institute is a big success, ministers and laymen, and women from all over the city and state are attending in large numbers.

Robinson, D.D., Pastor St. Mark is in the midst of an Easter Revival with the Rev. H. M. Carroll, former Pastor of Fulton St. Church as the Evangelist. The meeting began Sunday with a large congregation and three conversions. It is a most fitting way to approach the Easter time. Every Christian should seek a "closer walk with God" as well as use his gifts for the leading of others to Christ. Services are being held each night. Good preaching and singing.
