Raid Garvey Meeting, Tear Down African Flag NABS MATE'S FLEEING SLAYER PRICE 5 CENTS NAB CAPTURES MAN AFTER CHASE THRU STREETS Women Captures Husband's Slayer As He Steps Into Taxicab. Dewey Strickland, 22 years of age, was fatally shot Friday afternoon in his home, 4821 St. Lawrence avenue, by George Sykes, 4827 St. Lawrence avenue, a former roomer in Strickland's home. Strickland was rushed to the office of Dr. S. W. Smith, 4666 State street, where he died a few minutes later. Killed Over Old Debt The shooting occurred at Strickland's home, where Sykes had gone to collect a debt of $30.00 owed him by Strickland. The two men faced each other in Strickland's dining room and are said to have quarrelled over the terms of the debt. Heated words followed, and Sykes was ordered from the house. Strickland is said to have accompanied his order with a threatening movement toward his pocket. Sykes then drew his gun, a .38 caliber, over and fired one shot. The bullet entered Strickland's left breast, just below the heart, and he fell mortally wounded. Attempts to Escape As Strickland fell, Sykes fled from the house, running through St. Lawrence avenue to Forty-eighth street. When he reached the corner, he hailed a passing taxicab. Mrs. Jimmie Strickland, wife of the dying man, pursued the slayer through the street, screaming for his capture. As he was about to dash away in the taxicab, she renewed her screams. At this chauffeur refused to speed his car away. The crowd attracted by Mrs. Strickland's screams held Sykes until policemen could arrive at the scene. He was put under arrest and held for investigation. At the coroner's inquest over the remains of the slain man, Sykes was formally held on a charge of murder. Strickland's remains were shipped to Detroit, his home, Monday morning. LAYS HAITI REVOLT TO MISMANAGEMENT BY UNCLE SAM WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.—Failure of the American government in 1918 to outline a definite policy for development of Haiti led to a renewal of revolutionary conditions in worse form than those that prevailed before the marines occupied the island in 1915, Roger Farnham, vice-president of the National City Bank of New York, testified recently at resumption of hearings before the special Senate committee investigating conditions in Haiti. The island, however, has again become quiet, revolutionists having disarmed, and is ready for comprehensive developments, said Mr. Farnham. Questioned by Chairman McCormick as to who was to blame for renewal of the revolution three years ago, Mr. Farnham said: "Washington, not officials at Port au Prince, was responsible." Mr. Farnham told the committee he was confident that if a far-sighted policy were put into effect Haiti within a few years would become as prosperous as Cuba. Schools should be provided and steps taken to systematize government finances, he said. Bond Forger on Trial ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 22—Raymond Boswell, on parole after serving six years of a twenty-year sentence, has been put on trial in Federal District Court here, charged with forging the owner's name to $250 of stolen Liberty Bonds. IN ERROR In last week's issue of the WHIP it was erroneously stated that Harvey Coleman, Mrs. Harvey Coleman, and her two sons were white. The statement was in error. None of the parties concerned were white. "A PAPER WITH A POLICY" The Chicago Whip AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY BACKED TO THE WALL! KU KLUX KLAN THREATS HENRY BROWN NY Congress has halted the investigation of the Ku Klux Klan. "Wizard" Simons has gone to Georgia, and as Klan still lives to perpetuate its villiany and scatter its unholy doctrines, our backs are to the wall. Masked Mob Beats Texas Hotel Man For "Peeping" Masked Mob Beats Texas Hotel Man For "Peeping" LONGVIEW, Tex., Oct. 22.—Texas again felt the sting of masked mob violence here Wednesday night. One hundred masked men, apparently members of the Ku Klux Klan, wearing hoods and nightgowns, seized Charles Hagler, took him into the country, stripped him to the skin and flogged him. He was so severely beaten that he was unable to return to his work the next day. Hagler was charged by the masked band with having "peeped" into the homes of citizens. KILLS FELLOW CONVICT WITH KNIFE MADE IN PRISON KILLS FELLOW CONVICT WITH KNIFE MADE IN PRISON BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Oct. 22.—Felton Fuller, a convict in the Banner mines near here, recently killed Gilbert Reed, a fellow convict with a knife, it is said, he fashioned from an old scrap of iron. Reed was sent to the penitentiary from Morgan County, in 1912, and was sentenced to 11 years. Fuller was serving a life sentence for murder. The cause of the trouble could not be learned. WOMAN DIES OF BURNS AS OIL STOVE EXPLODES Mrs. Mattie Marshall, 42, 3846 Vincennes Ave., died of burns Saturday at the Fort Dearborn Hospital, victim to a newly-patented gasoline stove. Mrs. Marshall purchased a newly-patented gasoline stove and was filling it with gasoline at her home Friday. When she attempted to light it the stove exploded, saturating her clothing with oil. Flames quickly enveloped her body, and she was badly burned before they could be extinguished. She was removed to the Fort Dearborn Hospital, where she died Sunday. BOY,15,FINDS BODY OF NEWLY BORN BABY William Johnson, 15, 3714 Wabash Ave., while playing in the rear of 3831 State St., Oct. 13, found the body of a newly-born baby. The child had been dead several hours, and was evidently abandoned at birth. Vamps Man Into Cab, Robs and Stabs Him Andrew Hughley, 2900 Prairie Ave., is a sadder and a wiser man as a result of a wild joy ride in a Yellow Cab last Thursday. Incidentally he is a broke and a wounded man. According to Hughhey, he was lured into a taxicab by a woman he knows as Minnie Brown. He is ignorant of her address. A wild ride through darkened streets followed. What went on in the cab is only to be conjectured, but the plot had so thickened that at 43rd St. and Champlain Ave. Miss Brown leaped from the cab and disappeared into the darkness. Brown was found stabbed in the side, and minus his bankroll. WHITE MINISTER LEAVES WIFE OF 28 YEARS FOR GIRL MERIDIAN, Miss., Oct. 22. Charged with deserting his family, the Rev. W. E. Bennett, a Nazarine preacher, testified at his trial recently that the woman with whom he has been living for twenty-eight years, and the mother of his eight children, is not his wife. Rev. Bennett said his only legal marriage was to a young colored girl of Bell County, Tex. --- RAID GARVEY MEETING,PULL DOWN FLAG RAID GARVEY MEETING,PULL DOWN FLAG Ex-Soldiers Protest When U. S Flag Is Flown At Half Mast In Parade. FT. WAYNE, Ind., Oct. 22.—A near-riot was (precipitated here last week when a group of ex-soldiers raided a local ice-cream parlor and tore down the Black and Green flag of the African Commonwealth, proposed by the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The flag was flying in front of the ice-cream parlor, the proprietor of which is a prominent member of the Garvey movement. At the time of the raid a meeting was being held in honor of a visiting member of the organization. The ex-service men broke up the Garvey meeting, claiming that the organization has been holding nightly parades through the downtown section, carrying an American flag at half-mast and another flag of American design, but instead of having forty-eight stars had one large star. Police quieted the disturbance after several had been injured. SAY WOMAN SOLD EXAM QUESTIONS TO TEACHERS Leak Bared When Applicants All Gave Same Answers To Questions. SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS, Oct. 22. Mrs. Alice Hunt of this city was put on trial here last week in connection with the stealing and selling of examination papers and certificates to teach in Texas schools. She was arrested following investigations conducted several months ago by the State Department of Education. With her involved several applicants for teachers' certificates. It is charged that questions and answers were disposed of through Mrs. Hunt and that a number of applicants received the questions previous to the time of examination. An attempt will be made by the state to prove that Mrs. Hunt acted as an agent and that the test papers were stolen and turned over to her for sale. It is believed that other arrests may follow the trial here. Investigation that led to the present charge against the defendant followed the receipt of several sets of examination papers in the State Department of Education to be graded, in all of which the answers were identical. Comparisons of the papers showed that the same wording was used in three instances throughout the entire list of questions, which, it is said, proves that the three applicants obtained the answers from a common source. The investigation was carried on here by members of the county attorney's department, assisted by W. E. James of the Department of Education and County Superintendent W. A. Thurman of Bexar county. FOUND NOT GUILTY AT THIRD TRIAL NASHVILLE, Tenn. Oct. 22.—At their third trial for the murder of Raphael Purlmutter, a Russian Jew, Alfred Smith, Jim Madwell and Will Robinson were found not guilty. Verdicts of first degree murder were rendered in the first and second trials, but the Supreme Court ordered another hearing because the judge, and not the jury, fixed the penalty. Read, Think and Act G SLA Probe Texas Judge Quells Mob of 200 Men by Telephone GEORGETOWN, Tex., Oct. 22. At midnight, Wednesday night, 200 armed men, coming from Liberty Hill and Leander, invaded this city and stormed the county jail here. They demanded that Sheriff Lee Allen turn over to them the prisoner arrested on suspicion of assaulting the wife of a farmer near here. Having anticipated the crowd, the sheriff and his deputies held the hoodlums off until he could communicate with Judge James Hamilton at Austin. The judge talked with the mob leaders over the telephone, urging them to disperse, assuring them that the prisoner would be given as speedy a trial as the law allows. SIX MUSICIANS DIE AS LINER SINKS IN FOG NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 14—Six members of the "Southern Syncopated Orchestra" are reported to be missing as a result of the sinking of the Laird Line steamer Rowan, off the southwest coast of Scotland in a collision with the American steamer, West Camack. The accident was due to a heavy fog. Thirteen of the Rowan's crew and a number of its passengers are missing. Although details are lacking, it is known that 81 of the 140 persons aboard were rescued. Two passengers died after being rescued by vessels which responded to the wireless S. O. S. call. Orchestra Abroad Among the many passengers of the Rowan were members of the "Southern Syncopated Orchestra," who have been touring Europe since June, 1919, introducing Southern melodies and folk songs, with amazing success. London and Paris had given them enthusiastic receptions and they were en route to Dublin, where their coming had been widely heralded. A six months' engagement at the leading theaters had been arranged. There were originally thirty-eight members. Six of the minstrels are among the missing; one, a drummer, Peter Robinson, is known to be dead, succumbing to exposure on the destroyer's deck after being rescued from the ice water. The hero of the tragedy was Egbert E. Thompson, leader of the orchestra, who served in France during the late World War with the immortal "Buffaloes" Infantry. He was carried down by the ship, but struggled to the surface and swam to a life raft, onto which he dragged many women, children and men from the water. Time after time, seeing a person helpless and drowning he would leave the safe raft and assist others in getting close. He continued this work of rescue until chilled and exhausted, human nature would permit him to do no more. Among those saved was a young boy, Edward Spires, who was almost unconscious when Thompson picked him up. Goes Down Fast At midnight the West Camack, inbound, and the Rowan, outbound, from Glasgow, were both proceeding with slow speed. The West Camack hit the Rowan a glancing blow on the stern. The Rowan's passengers stood by their boats with lifebelts adjusted. While the West Camack was lowering its boats the Clan Malcolm's whistle was heard. A moment later the liner loomed out of the fog, slicing into the passenger ship and cutting it in two as with a huge knife. The Rowan sank immediately, dragging down the passengers with it. S. O. S. Call Sent Out At the moment of sinking, however, the Rowan radio operator sent broadcast an S. O. S. call, which was picked up by the British destroyer, Wrestler, eighteen miles away. The destroyer sped to the scene. EIGHT PAGES --- Orchestra Abroad Leader Is Hero Goes Down Fast S. O. S. Call Sent Out PRICE FIVE CENTS AYER Of Klux EVIDENCE MAY NOT WARRANT FEDERAL ACTION Committee Discharges Witnesses, Orders "Wizard" Simmons Back To Georgia. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 19.—A decision on whether there shall be a congressional probe of the Ku Klux Klan is far from being reached. The committee adjourned last night after a full day's session of the grilling of Imperial Wizard Simmons. After the grilling the committee voted unanimously not to call any more witnesses. By many this is taken as an indication that the investigation will be dropped. Others contend that the committee merely wishes time to adduce evidence from the testimony already presented. Representative Campbell of Kansas, chairman of the rules committee, said today that it would be at least a week before the committee would announce its findings as to whether evidence adduced in this hearing would warrant a thorough investigation. Meanwhile, there will be no examination of witnesses and the present hearing will not be reopened, he said. Delays Decision on Klan "Do you think it is the sentiment of the committee, or will the rules committee so advise the house of representatives that a thorough investigation is necessary?" Mr. Campbell was asked. "That is something that I cannot discuss," was his reply. "Three members of the committee are in New York, two others are occupied with other matters and one member, Mr. Fess, has been called to his home in Ohio. It will be necessary to have the full committee in session before any announcement can be made." There are twelve members in the full committee. Imperial Wizard Simmons was advised last night that he could go to his home in Atlanta and he left Washington with Paul S. Etheridge, chief counsel for the Klan, and another man who accompanied them to Washington. Simmons was advised, however, that he might be recalled after a week. In his questioning of Simmons yesterday, Mr. Campbell seemed to indicate that possibly this hearing would end it all, when he asked the Imperial Wizard if upon his return to Atlanta he would fully investigate and act upon certain allegations that have been made against the Klan. In effect, Mr. Campbell wanted to know if Simmons would clean use in the Klan upon his return. Simmons said he most certainly would. These remarks are forth when the criminar asked Simmons if it had occurred to him that masked violence in some sixty instances in the last year, whether committed as alleged by the Klan or not, was not inspired by the mask and name of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. The chairman also asked Simmons if it had not occurred to him that certain persons were using the wizard as figurehead in the Klan and collecting large sums of money. Simmons had been very hazy regarding books and statements of the Klan, and although he had stated that he was the final authority in all matters, he was not familiar with finances, use of the mails, the matter in certain news letters sent through the mails for the purpose of gaining members and so on. Mr. Campbell would not say whether the question of the subject, with this committee, Wants Teacher to Testify Representative Tague of Boston, who introduced the most bitter resolution in Congress, demanding an investigation, wishes to bring to Washington a Miss Riordan, a discharged school teacher of Atlanta, who, it has been charged, was not re-elected to her teacher position this year because she was a Catholic and that the Klan had something to do with it. Mr. Tague gave a letter to the chairman addressed to him from Miss Riordan, (Continued on Page 2.) Fear Congress May Drop Probe of Ku Klux Atrocities 1000 AGENTS WANTED!!!

EVIDENCE MAY NOT WARRANT FEDERAL ACTION (Continued from page 1.) stating her position and willingness to testify in Washington. The letter was not made public by the chairman, however, nor would he say at this time whether Miss Riordan would be called. Gossip around the capitol as to whether there will be a congressional investigation urged in the rules committee finding, takes two positions. One is that the committee does not wish to burden Congress with such an investigation at this time and that it will recommend that existing federal agencies take care of the situation; the other is that such pressure has been brought to bear by opponents of the Klan that an inquiry of some kind is almost inevitable. It is pointed out by the one side in the argument that the congressmen and senators want to wind up this special session. No member of the two weeks and mileage home, before the opening of the regular session, in the second week of December, and that an inquiry of the magnitude suggested by some congressmen would occupy the better part of November. It remains that only a few witnesses have been heard in the rules committee hearing. Roland Thomas, writer for the New York World, and C. Anderson Wright, writer of a series of articles against the Klan, made the direct charges. O. B. Williamson, a postal inspector, told of his investigation in Atlanta, cut short by the hearing, and of finding of objectionable matter being sent through the mails Imperial Wizard Simmons was heard for three days in his own defense. Edward Young Clarke and Mrs Elizabeth Tyler, proprietors of the Southern Publicity Association and directors of the propaganda department of the Klan, against whom virtually all charges have been made, have not been called, nor have any of the victims of masked mob violence in the South All of these persons, according to Representative Dyer of St. Louis, member of the judiciary committee and father of one resolution calling for congressional action against the Klan, will be called in the event of a congressional general inquiry. Ft. Dearborn Now A Hospital of The People The public will be very glad to know that the Greater Fort Dearborn Hospital and Training School for Nurses has passed beyond the stage of a private hospital controlled by a few Doctors and is now the People's hospital, a city institution devoted to the needs of Humanity. The Trustees realize that in order to lift the community life to the highest moral, physical and social standards that not only is a larger building needed, but the scope of work must be broadened, therefore, they have formulated plans to establish a Social Service Dept, in connection with the hospital activities, comprising a Woman's Auxiliary with the following committees: Child Welfare, Milk Station, Nurses Home, Hospital linen and community visits with headquarters in Room It Roosevelt State Bank Bldg., 350; Grand Blvd. Any woman who is interested in effective community work is cordial, invited to cooperate in every possible way by interesting others and to comm in at any time between the hours of 4 P.

IS LIKE KU KLUX KLAN NEW YORK, Oct. 22—The Grant Goblin of the Ku Klux Klan for the District of Columbia who, in an interview given a representative of The Washington Eagle, defended his organization with a claim of similarity between the Ku Klux and the African Blood Brotherhood and the assertion that "the Ku Klux Klan had as much right to exist as the African Blood Brotherhood according to Cyril V. Briggs, executive head of the latter organization who this morning issued the following statement for publication: the Grand Goblin must have been dreaming. There certainly is, not the slightest similarity between the African Blood Brotherhood and the vicious Ku Klux organization. The A. B. B is a protective and liberative organization called into being as a result of the terrorist tactics of the Ku Klux and the general frame of mind of the Anglo-Saxon element from which the Ku Klux membership is drawn. The A. B. B is not anti-Catholic, anti-Jew, anti-alien or anti-anybody-else, but simply pro-Negro. It seeks not Negro supremacy, but Negro protection and liberty. It has no desire to handle and keep down any race simply to prove" the superiority of its own race status. "O peculiar supremacy that dare not risk similarity or competition from so-called inferior race!) It has for its purpose "immediate protection and ultimate liberation of Negroes everywhere" and the worst thing that its enemies have ever accused it of was of "organizing and directing Negroes" in self-defence during the race riots at Tulsa, Washington, Chicago, etc. THE CHICAGO WHIP rop Probe Women everywhere are a bright, smooth, velvety.

The widespread interest manifested by all denominations in the intimely and sudden death of Dr. C. J. W. Boyd, who was accidently killed at New Orleans, La., on Sunday evening, September 11th, at 7:30 P. M. and the desire to perpetuate a memory bright and beautiful for its achievements occasioned the announcements here that on November 27th, at 11 A. M. there will be held in all the Baptist Churches in the United States a memorial service wherein opportunity will be given or expression with regard to his worth, character and ability. It is also generally understood that at that hour an offering will be given to assist in paying the $11,000.00 now owed on the National Baptist Theological Seminary located at Nashville, Tenn. The late Dr. Boyd had just raised $6,000.00 to be applied to that particular phase of the denominational work, when he was stricken and fell at the hands of a bullet fired by Dave Miller. Miller's wife testified in her dying moments to President Jones that her husband had enleavored to kill her for the last two days, that neither of them knew Dr. Boyd. His death was purely accidental. "He died the death of a Martyr for he was in the discharge of his duty," said Dr. Jones, "and I am carnely appealing to our pastor and congregation that they will on this day commemorate the unexcelled traits of our distinguished brother and at the same time make such an offering as will testify to his great worth." It is thought that the Memorial services will be general and that all donations raised on this occasion will be sent to Rev. J. L. Harding, 523 Second Avenue N. Nashville, Tenn., who will receipt for all remittances. "It is proposed," said Dr. Jones "that a monument to his memory will be erected upon the campus for which he had given the dearest years of life." Angered By Slow Cooking, Andrews Stabs Sweetheart Miss Pauline Mitchell's proficiency as a good cook is said to have won the heart of Dykes Andrews, 3559 Prairie Ave. But the same culinary arts which brought her success are said to have caused her downfall Sunday afternoon. Miss Mitchell, who is said to be living at the Prairie Ave, address as Mitchell's wife, was cooking dinner for him. Andrew had an important engagement, however, and the pot boiled too slowly. Becoming angered at the delay, he seized a manicuring knife and slashed her several times across the breast. She was taken to the County Hospital. Andrews was put under arrest. LIBERTY LIFE CO. GIVES INSPIRING BANQUET The Liberty Life Insurance Company, the first colored old line legale insurance in the north gave a banquet last Wednesday in honor of Dr. Robert Bradby of Detroit, who is on the board of directors and has been an instrumental factor in the development of the company. This banquet was attended by the leading ministers. Dr. Bradby made an illuminating speech which captivated the audience and brought a fever heat of interest to all who heard. He advanced the thought that the ministry should concern themselves with temporal affairs of the world and those who wish to live as well as with those who must die. Representative Roberts followed with a characteristic burst of oratory. Dr. Cook of the Metropolitan Community Center and Dr Robinson of Saint Marks made encouragement remarks pledging themselves to the aid of the company. Dr Thomas of Evanston thrilled the body with the great enthusiasm. Dr Bousfield, the great artist, and Fréd Gillespie the founder impressed the gathering with the force of their conviction and their zeal in making the organization a success. A splendid course dinner was served by Moss, the caterer, and the Liberty Life imgratiated itself in the hearts of all. It is hoped that the meeting will bear fruit.

GETTING WONDERFUL RESULTS FROM CHIROPRACTIC Chiropractic will eventually replace the practice of medicine, according to Dr. Fred H. Rubel, Doctor of Chiropractic, at 4041 Indiana avenue. Chiropractic is the science of adjusting the displacements of the spinal column for the purpose of removing pressure from impinged nerves. The science goes on the theory that the nerves in passing through and between the bones of the spinal column can be impinged or the nerve supply restricted. Dr. Rubel cites several instances where his patients obtained relief after employing medicine to no avail. Among them was the case of E. P. Brand, 3353 Indiana avenue, who had been suffering lumbago for five weeks and was practically unable to move. Three adjustments relieved him so that he was able to move around without pain. E. H. Talbert, 3213 Vernon avenue, a graduate of Wilberforce, has suffered paralysis for two years. After five chiropractic adjustments he was able to walk without crutches. The Rev. W. D. Ford, 3722 Langley avenue, had suffered asthma for three weeks and was unable to breathe without difficulty. After two adjustments he was able to attend to his church duties without inconvenience. Student in Europe Finds "Birth Of A Nation" Being Shown BALTIMORE BOY SEES PICTURE IN DENMARK (Baltimore Afro-American) COPENHAGEN Denmark, Sept. 15.—(By Mail)—Just as the Negro in America has learned that the Race Problem is bound by no section but extends as far as the Negro pursues the way, of the Negro abroad finds the Problem pursuing him from land to land. Mechanical inventions and case of communication permit the venom of American Race Prejudice to circle the globe and revive the primitive passions of civilized men against the Negro. This truth was impressed on me when I saw one day in large headline the announcement that the historical film success, "The Birth of a Nation," would be shown at the largest theatre in Copenhagen. I could scarcely believe my eyes, for bad I not helped to kill the vicious film just two months before in New York City. It seemed as if an evil deed had been resurrected to haunt me. Nevertheless, I went to see the film with a young university student, especially to observe the effect upon the audience and find out if the film contained its worst parts. To my dismay it contained all the falsed history designed to convert the North and turn the sympathies of men against the Negro. In short the Negro was represented simply as a raptor. All the scenes purporting historical authenticity made his efforts during Reconstruction appear a travesty upon human intelligence. In his brutal, distorted nature, we see in the picture, we cannot recognize the souls of the Folk who gave the world the Negro spirituals. But sadest of all, my young friend, who had seen the picture the night before, believed that it was true. The audience believed it and feeling awakened in them the pride of race and anlauded in American style. During the intermission the credulous eyes were fixed upon me, deluged in a sea of white faces. They wonder —I dare not divine; but I wondered why—if there is any plan in the universe. Lies are permitted to triumphantly blight the hearts of men while Truth, his emancipator must be humbly trampled upon. With these thoughts I took a train the next morning for Paris. When I returned from Paris the "Birth of a Nation" was still drawing large crowds. I determined to speak a word on behalf of Truth, Natalia and I went to the office of the Politiken and asked the editor to accept an article disputing the representations of the picture and defending the condefit of the Negro in the United States. He gladly accepted the article because the picture had become the subject of discussion throughout the city. The next morning the article appeared in the Politiken on the front page and provoked the deserts on the map. The next day he decided to have an interview to learn the truth about the Negro Problem.

Ipsilon Omega will meet on October 18, Blue Triangle Rboms. Its guest will be Mr. C. C. Wimbish and Mr. Mayo Williams representing the Chicago Whip Club Department. Put it over Ipsilon. This club is composed of High School Grads or better, and in its membership are represented the best families of Chicago. Its Matron of Honor has won more prizes than any individual in Chicago—oratory and elocation are a part of her daily menu. Answers Mrs. Z. W.: Try Geo. F. Williams, 6239 Ada Street, for her address. President of Club. E. L.: We misplaced the names of clubs whose address you asked. W. B.: We carry regularly, only fifty of the 127 clubs listed. Any of the others will tell you why they are not carried. We told them. O. C. T.: Yes, she is married. Her husband cannot get out until 1923. E. T. T.: Nothing at all against her—she does NOT deliver. Rev. (?): I do not think that you can secure E. Grundy for your choir. Orator: Yes, Chas. Satchel Morris is superior to Roscoe Simmons. Pres.: It lies equally between Editor Bibb and Rev. A. J. Bowling. Brains are brains, application in lecture is talent. The Virginia Society, October 19, will pull a first-class entertainment at Bailey Hall. The program will be Musical and Literary, and the general public will see. The family is not well acquainted with them because they are usually late with their news and are to be found often "out in the cold"—in other pages of the paper. Come on inside Virginia. Tuskegee and South Carolina please come in early. Lookee! Ha, Ha!! Ole Steve J Young is a huhby!! The Bethel Beacon Lights did not even know it either. Miss Florence Sewell—that was—and now, is not—can keep a secret from the Family. May a toot of rice and old shoes fall about yea! It happened in May, 1921. What thinkest A. R.? (Pres). Sorry to state: We cannot admit the Bon Roer Club. We do not just exactly like your "surveys." (We mean to like the Chief where you are and of the "bones" you are rolling.) Your list of officers suggests Police News. Bye! We are returning your comp, because our Police Card would admit us there. We shall now rinse our mouth and proceed with club Recital of Family Girl Miss Grace Morris (Eng. Mus and Dram) is appearing in recital Wednesday, October 19, at Abram Lincoln Center. She is one of the pupils of Mrs. A. C. Cone. Admission, 35 cents. Many other pupils of merit are to appear. Let's go and encourage the Family folk.

See other members in last week edition. First courses are given. Come on over, girls. CLUBS ALL should send in their addresses and officers again. We find a few are duplicating names. Give either you usual pledge or place or the addition of your president at once. Our list holds 127 clubs. Six names are duplicated. DON'T! Reply at once and we shall publish the new list soon. Mrs. Martha Roberts, Twentieth Century Art Club, is inquiring if there is another Century Club? Ans.: There is a Twentieth Century Girl's Club about Wendell's. Ask Miss Lucille Tripp of Quinn. Mrs. Suggs is president of the Twentieth Century Art Club. Hurry in with your names—let's make a new roster.—Ed. O, yes! We know everybody—that's (if its) worth while. Charles S. Morris was held in city by Evanston folks. He appeared out there Sunday and Monday—now he is off for K. C. The rest of the itinerary is as published. Address us. Be sure that we are in touch with Mr Morris and can answer your questions pertaining to him. Busy until January 2, too. The Young Men's Cosmopolitan League are again in session. W. D. McDonald addressed club at Salem Sunday. Many members of the Oliver Standard were at Grace Lycceum Sunday. Good! Next time go see M. C. at 7:45 then ACT accordingly. We were compelled to leave out the report of NINE CLUBS this week because we are running over our allotment of space so if you wish to be sure to get in the FAMILY, RE-MEMBER the circular letter we sent you once before or take your chance The Young People's Lycum or Grace Presbyterian Church presented Mr. W. H. Barrette in "What are you doing?" We still are wondering what he was doing—lecturing-adver tising the cheese business, or what O. hum! However, we guess he is selling mighty fine cheese, what Mrs. Peyton really was a credit to herself and to "The Symphony Dark Horse's" Choir. Miss Dervon, acco panist, ranks high up with Miss Mc Curdy, Miss Thomas, and few other in the class near Miss Doyle with Pattie Morris for three minutes. We shall take our text next week on the pianists and accompanists who really count in Chicago. O, yes. we know music! Jews, harp and all! At GRACE Miss Marguerite Hall appeared in piano numbers. Miss Carol McCov, reader, is giving her teacher a close run for popularity Both numbers great. Mr. Henery Ethridge "dramatic tenor" appeared in a number, then made us take an- FRIDAY EVENING at 8 o'clock sharp the doors of the Eighth Regiment Armory will be thrown open to the various clubs which are registered with the Alpha Delta Dancing Club as their guests: The Acme, Ipsilon Omega, Hobnob Social, Prairie Tennis, Stonelli Adelphia, Chi- Roamers, Alsace Loraine, University, Business Girls, Red Circle, Fort Dearborn Nurses, El Pro- gresso, Regina Walter A.

The CLUB Department will be re- presented by Mr. Mayo I. Williams celebrated football star who does our proxy work. If your club is not reg- istered, see Mr. Alfred William, Pres- ident, at 510 E. 34th Place evenings. Go see what the Club Daddy and the Alpha Deltas are doing. The Willing Workers and Strangers' Club will appear at the Avenue Theater in matinee on the 27th instant. See here next week. Bethel Choir at Aryan Grotto Temple in Opera December 5. "Martha." The "Little Music Master" will pull the big event. Jas. A. Mundy, Director. Monthly musical by house last Sunday evening. Prof. Jas. A. Lilliard, M. Mary E. Jones, Miss Carol McCoy and Miss Irene W.

The El Progresso Club met at 4548 Wabash Avenue. Mr. Artie King acted as host. This club is going to the Armory on 21st. Did you notice that the Astrometer are back again with the FAMILY? Also the Bethel Beacon lights? Welcome both of you. The Family is still rejoicing that the Phyllisonians are back. (Please send in report Monday morning.) Insures insertions. Hello, Invincible Dramatic! Tell Miss Ruth Brown to please send in the club earlier next time. Welcome to Family! The Eureka Social is now meeting at 3516 Rhodes Avenue. You should have registered for the Eighth Armory affair on 21st. Look who has come again to light! The mysterious Muggawanos better known as the Mumzewords! Twenty members. Their constitution has been changed, so we readmitted them to the Family. You are welcome as long as you be good. Family is particular to you. The Zephyr Social Club met October 15 at the residence of Miss Jeanne Morrison, 3811 S. State Street. Watch here in future. The Gaudeamus has been absent from the Family for six months, so has the Fleur de Lis Art. Was there a funeral or something? "Zip," with his friend, "Nosey," are headed your way clubs, so what you want known, why write it yourself—it reads better. Both of our investigators are "crazy" with a pen—do not trust them. The Alpha Deltas in a body visited us last Sunday. Sorry we were absent from the office. Thank you for the call. The Wilberforce Club has invited Chas S Morris to address them in the near future. Accepted. Note: The Men's Community Forum is a promising club body. "Zip" says: "If they just will not send in their notes, why not bar all their brothers and sisters from the FAMILY until they do so?" We would miss the Young People's Society, the Sunday Evening Club, the Willing Workers and Strangers, the Troop 47 Girl Scouts, etc., who are in the family with the Men's C. Forum—so will, instead, send "Zip" over to 3140 next Tuesday evening and get our own report. You know "Zip" never reports as you should desire. O, look! We received a letter saying: "You seem to think that there are no lady Musical Conductors or Directors in Chicago." Wrong again! We know there are some: Miss Mr. M. L. is one, also Miss Irene W. Howard can easily pass with the trick, but the lady to whom you refer is a PIANIST and a SOLOIST. If necessary we might indicate Mrs. Peyton and a few "close-up" lady conductors. But we shall not call that name, the FAMILY would boil us! Do not overlook the Progressive Company. That body began as little club like your own. They met at 5219 Dearborn with Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Turner, orator and dramatic reader respectively and a few friends. They meant business (like the Alpha Delta), and then the great company came. They are always in this paper, The FAMILY regards as a great big brother. Some one is objecting to that adjective which you wrote before "***Club Daddy." Of course you, ourselves, do not object—not at all—rather like it—but you know how some people are—go through your pockets, mail etc., snooping around? So, just leave off the first adjective when you write and (sotto voce) tell it to us in our car. No harm in that—we are sure! Perfectly conventional—in the car. We acknowledge letter from the little Misses Clubs: (O, pshaw!) You know who you are—can't write it now. (See above.) On November 1 at Olivet—let's us hope that Miss Carol McCoy reads: "The Shadow upon the Blinds." It is her strongest for characterization. The other artists will make in any number—all good.

The Business Girls' Club after a very delicious club supper Wednesday evening, rehearsed many popular club songs to be sung at our Industrial Conference Oct. 29th to 30th. The Gamma Della Girls will hold their regular meeting Monday evening 7.30. The Industrial Secy was the guest of the Wilson Club at their plant last Friday. All the clubs are planning to send from 6 to 10 girls to attend the Industrial Conference to be held at the Bowen Country Club House. Already 35 girls are signed up for this week-end trip. All friends are cordially invited to attend the very unique Halloween party that is being planned by the industrial clubs to be given on Monday evening, October 31st in the Blue Triangle Club House.

The Twentieth Century Art Club met last at the residence of Mrs. Mamie Clingskale, 4811 St. Lawrence Avenue. Mrs. M. Suggs, President; Mrs. M. Roberts, Social Chairman, other, we did not complain.

We will try you once—if you make it "Silver Threads." The Young People's Movement Club of Salem are here with us. Family! They pulled a nice gathering of church clubs last Sunday afternoon, 2:30. Mrs. A. McCoy is president, and by the way she executed a great obligato in the choir under Mrs. Cone. Mrs. Palmer was attentive to guests whilst the ushers, all pretty, gave excellent service. Upon the whole the program was slightly disappointing, The Master of Ceremonies "did not have them." He should have pulled the coat of that visiting preacher, Also should have been informed of the "object." Mastering a ceremony is an art. Why not come over to the Armory Friday evening as a guest of the Alpha Dancing Club and thirty others, and see just how we or our proxy does the trick. Might help you. Special Note to Club Attending the Armory Desiridz of stating that if returned to city in time, we will meet you and the FAMILY at the ARMORY Friday, 7:30 P. M. If possible to do so, will notify President Alpha Deltas Wednesday evening and send Mr. Mayo L. Williams, or possibly Editor-in-Chief, Chicago Whip, Hon. Jos. D. Bibb or other member of the Staff will meet you. Good Luck either way. We shall be represented. Sorry that there is no more room for the other NINE Clubs which have their reports lying before me.

Branham, and preached a very helpful and practical sermon. Dr. William preached in the morning, but was not able to be out Sunday night, on account of illness. If he is well enough he will preach the third in the series of sermons next Sunday night. Subject: The Greatest Need of the Age. The church wants to see three thousand men present to hear this sermon, as the pastor will prove that this greatest need of the age is men. The Choirs will render special music all day. The pastors will bring living messages to the people every Sunday. All are welcome. St. Mark Methodist Episcopal Church Rev. John W. Robinson, Pastor Last Sunday at an early hour St. Mark's great auditorium was filled to hear the pastor preach on the subject, "The New Earth." He was at his best and preached a great sermon in which souls rejoiced and many hearts were made glad in the God of their salvation. It was a spiritual benediction to all. Several came forward for prayer, two were converted and nine united with the church. At two-thirty the funeral of Brother William Odeleal, one of St. Mark's best and most faithful members, was preached by the pastor. The Golden Gate Masonic Lodge was in charge. At the evening service the Rev. Robt. Skelton, a student at Garrett Theological School, preached to the delight of a large audience. Last Sunday was our great Rally Day in which we raised $1,500 for the greater St. Mark. Special Mention Two of our St. Mark young men are to be married this week; namely, Mr. Henry A. Scott and Robert S. Butler. Each of these boys is a worker in St. Mark church and Sunday School. Both are prominent in society circles of our St. Mark younger set.

Reach, pastor. Metropolitan Community Center Church Reverend W. D. Cook, Pastor The large auditorium at Wendell's was filled to capacity last Sunday morning. The pastor, Rev. W. D. Cook, preached a highly-intellectual sermon from 116 Pts. His Theme: The Soul—Where Is It, (Is There Life After Death?) His Text: Man Dieth, Wastes Away—Gives Up the Ghost and Where Is He? The pastor exposed the sermon from three angles or in three relationships: that the influence of man goes on within the world; that the body is retired to the cemetery, and that the soul goes to the "place prepared for it." "Do you know that never in any period of history has there been such belief that the spirits of beyond communicate with individuals of earth?" asked the speaker. "Really, I am almost persuaded to believe it myself," he declared. The wit, apt and pertinent demonstration and thorough exposition, Reverend Cook preached a sermon equally as convincing in its intellectual comprehension as it was in its spiritual entity. In the evening, before the Sunday Evening Club, the general secretary of the Y. M. C. A. lectured to the body. We are omitting all reference to the musical department of the M. C. C. until after the heralded musical next Sunday evening, at 6 p.m. Madame Garnes, Miss Irene Poinard and others are scheduled to appear.

SCIENCE DEVELOPS BLACK SKINNED CHICKEN NEW YORK, Oct. 22.—A chicken black-skinned from drumsticks to neck has been developed at the Carnegie Institution's experimental evolution station at Cold Springs Harbor, L. I. The bird popped into the world while scientists were playing put and take with chromosomes, in germs, plasms, whose change in number and shape is held responsible by biologists for racial colorings. The dusky chick is not easily distinguishable from an ordinary white-skinned sister, for it is fully clothed in regulation feathers. By lifting these feathers, however the skin is revealed jet black, warranted not to run.

Name Address CONGRESSMEN EXPRESS VIEWS ON KU KLUX NEW YORK CITY, Oct. 22.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, has announced early replies to a letter sent to every member of Congress, House of Representatives and Senate, asking for a statement on the Ku Klux Klan. In the first week replies are denouncing the Klan, from the following Senators: Howard Sutherland of West Virginia; Arthur Capper of Kansas; David L. Walsh of Massachusetts, William M. Calder of New York; Harry S. New of Indiana; Miles Poindexter of Washington; and Frank B. Willis of Ohio Among the Representatives who declared themselves opposed to the Ku Klux Klan and its programme are the following: John F. Carew, Thomas J. Ryan, Anthony J. Griffin, Peter G. Ten Eyck, and Michael J. Hogan, all of New York; T. W. Harrison of the 7th district in Virginia: Miner G. Norton of Ohio; Joseph W. Fordney of Michigan; John Philip Hill of Maryland; Merrill Moores of Indiana: Roscoe C. Patterson and T. W. Hukriede of Missouri; F. F. Patterson, Jr., of New Jersey; W. J. Graham of Illinois; J. N. Tincher of Kansas. Among the statements received from the senators and representatives, are the following: Senator Arthur Capper: "I do not feel that I can condemn too strongly the Ku Klux Klan and the methods There is no place in this country for an organization which siezes expediency as an excuse to defy society and take the law into its own hands. ***No scheme which would have a tendency to encourage class or race hatred—and I believe the methods of the Ku Klux Klan do this—should be tolerated for a moment." Senator Howard Sutherland: "I am glad to assure you that I have no sympathy whatever with this organization and think it a menace to the liberties of our people." Senator David I. Walsh: "If I am correctly informed as to the purpose of the Ku Klux Klan, namely that it is an organization which discriminates against American citizens who differ racially and religiously and promotes racial and religious misunderstanding, I consider it un-American and a menace to liberty and our free institutions." Senator William M. Calder: "If the Ku Klux Klan is an organization conducted for the purposes indicated in the recent newspaper articles, then I condemn it in the strongest possible manner. I am deeply opposed to any society or association which seeks to raise religious or race strife in America." Senator Miles Poindexter: "No secret organization, such as that referred to, avowedly for the purpose of taking active part in the settlement of social and political questions, can fail to run into excesses and commit various abuses. It is entirely inconsistent with the principle of government, through public agencies, controlled by the votes of the people. I have no doubt the particular organization referred to will be disbanded." Senator Frank B. Willis: "As a matter of history it sought to rule by threat, intimidation and fear. If such ideas and organizations must be resorted to maintain order in this country, Republican government is a failure. I am therefore not in favor of this organization as I understand it." Among the statements from the members of the House of Representatives were the following: John F. Carew: "I have nothing but condemnation for the Ku Klux Klan and hope to see it at once disorganized and suppressed." T. W. Harrison: "I am opposed to any secret organization, whether it is known as the Ku Klux Klan or goes by any other name, which undertakes to interfere in public affairs in any manner, shape or form. There is no occasion for any revival of the old Ku Klux Klan, which served its purpose in years immediately succeeding the war, and I am in favor of any steps necessary to suppress any organization that has any political purposes in view and which does not work in the open and submit both its methods and its objects to public inspection, and does not confine its activities strictly within the law." Anthony J. Griffin: "The Ku Klux Klan is absolutely unnecessary to accomplish the purpose its professes to aim at and its methods are a menace to the American Republic." John Philip Hill: "As a member of Congress and a supporter of the Constitution, I am opposed to the creation of an 'Invisible Empire' within the United States, and, further, I am opposed to any organization which foments racial and religious hatreds." J. W. Fordney: "If the Ku Klux Klan advocates such sentiments or principles as set forth in the pamphlets you furnish me, it comes in the class of unlawful organizations, and the federal authorities should at once take steps to suppress it. T. W. Hukriede: "I consider as un-American any organization which is founded on race hatred or religious hatred, and as the Ku Klux Klan falls in this category, I am unalterably opposed to this organization." The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announced that further Congressional comments on the Ku Klux Klan would be made public as they arrived. is yours.

LEAGUE ASKS OBSERVANCE OF ARMISTICE DAY Fellow Americans of Color: The third Armistice Day anniversary, November 11, 1921, is destined to parallel the original Armistice Day of November 11, 1918, and to be second to it in mem- orable significance. That first Armistice Day of a world war fought by the U. S. A. and allied nations on the promise of world democ- racy inaugurated steps for a World Peace Conference in Paris. This coming Armistice Day inaugurates another world peace conference, in the form of a World Disarmament Conference at Washington, U. S. A. The President of the U. S. A. has asked the citizenry to publicly assemble on that day to agitate for peace and to honor the soldier dead of the world war He, himself, will hold service for the "Unknown Soldiers" of the world de- mocracy war. The National Equal Rights League of the U. S. A. appeals to Colored America to hold service for the soldier dead and for the cause for which they died, world democracy. The league asks that in every community on Armistice Day or Armistice Sunday, if more feasible, at Equal Rights mass meetings arranged by Equal Rights leagues, old ones or new ones, or by Equal Rights committees, or by some race organization or church, in honor of the soldier dead, a movement be begun to elect and send delegates to a great national convention for the realization of the promise made to our soldiers, to be held during the World Disarmament Conference at Washington, in December. Let the entire Colored American group have a delegated representative in congress at the seat of the second world peace conference which this time has come to our shores, and there appeal to our country to really lead the world for peace by wiping out the violation of peace at home and by proposing to the assembled nations the abolishment of the underlying cause of all war, racial prejudice, arrogance and autocracy in their domains. The National Equal Rights League invites Colored America to its second National Colored World Democracy Congress, which will convene in the United States on December 11, 1921. Miss not this world opportunity to agitate our cause. Rec. Sec., 906 T st., N. W., Wash, D. C W. M., Wash, D. C Exec. Chairman. Chicago U. N. I. A. News W. A.

Editor Replies in Explanation To Club Editor, Chicago Whip: I note that in comparing the merit of Reverend J. Henderson in last week's issue, you stress your opinion that "L. K. W., W. D. C. and A. J. B." (and I suppose the "newcomer" is Dr. C. H. Clark), thereby picking out these three or four ministers as appearing superior to the rest of the hundreds of good, intelligent, capable, ministers in the city. Knowing the high power of ridicule, peculiar to all the departments of the Chicago Whip, and apparently of the individuals heading these departments therefore I hesitate signing my name but you know me well. I defy you to show in any particular manner why you pick out these ministers. Also I must state that there are some assistants pastors and local ministers, elders and so forth, who can give those "picked out" cards and spades and beat them in many things. I trust that you will be fair enough to give reason for the faith that is in you. Hoping that you back up your remark, I remain. An Assistant Pastor To "Assistant Pastor": The Editor Club department of The Whip desires to state that we have looked over many of the records of "L. K. W." and his record is superb—his present high mark of efficiency is exemplified in the ten thousand membership and institutional work and the comparison of his relatively short period in the city, "W. D. C." took a step (a' chance), and WON, which you would not take, we believe. His worth is proven by his following: the highest type of citizens in Chicago. Read last week's issue of the accomplishment in ONE YEAR and shut up! As for "A. J. B." why that minister is not alone a Harvade man, and one who holds honors from several colleges, but one who has served throughout the country on many important board—held central position in inter-racial committee, fought before school board the K. K. K. and barred out the "Birth of a Nation," and in many ways fought our battles, but Alonzo J. B., who is now an only Negro Censor in this city, is a strong spiritual preacher. All of the above ministers have a little of the world's goods, the last owing a large apartment building, "The newcomer" was most prominent in Nashville. He is in business in Chicago with his church supporting the enterprise for the race. Now, if you want some more data, just put on your shiny coat and drop around to the office. These ministers are not seeking publicity—object to it—so we must not further air their work. But for you! WE KNOW YOU. We know your style of writing and of kicking. No likelihood of your being one of the "big three," nor of the "biggest one hundred" in Chicago. YOU are too jealous. Trusting this may hold you, we are, W. A. E., Club Editor. BANK MESSENGER EXON- ERATED LOS ANGELES, Oct. 22.—William Booker, messenger for the Citizen's Savings Bank of Pasadena, who was arrested last week on suspicion of being implicated in the $15,000 theft which that bank suffered, has been exonerated and freed. Booker was carrying a satchel containing the money when it was snatched from him by bandits. Hon. Jos. D. Bibb, editor of the Chicago Whip, addressed the Minister's Council Monday afternoon at the Pilgrim Baptist Church on matters which vitally affect the status of the negro in the city of Chicago. Such an address, coming at a time when the warp and woof of our political and economical fabric is fastly disintegrating, when insidious forces are operating against us, when there is corruption in leadership and dissension in the ranks, marks the dawn of a new era in our city life. It shows beyond a shadow of a doubt the willingness on the part of the clergy to the "New Negro in his eternal fight for freedom" method. The editor was introduced by Dr. S. E. J. Watson, who extended the invitation. Mr. Bibb, in a cool, calm and deliberate manner, held his audience spellbound for fully an hour as he reasoned along the line of racial uplift and cohesion.

Membership 71,000 Says her hair has grown 28 inches long by using this wonderful hair grower --- O! NOSEY dropped in unintentionally on one of the queerest parties that he has seen in a long time. The daughter of one of Chicago's "first families" works downtown and is very fair. She had evidently made certain representations to her employer and fellow employees as to her racial connections. A group of the office force dropped in to see her as a surprise. Nosey smiled as he saw the consternation in the household. The aged, brown-skinned mother immediately became their cook, the dark brother was introduced, or rather, his presence was explained as the "houseman," and the father was told to stay out of sight. The mother and daughter held forth in great style with the visitors and Nosey retired to the rear of the house with the "cook" and "houseman" and father. Now, if the little girl loses her nice position after all of that trouble and quick thinking, it will be too bad. For others who are situated like this, Nosey advises that they keep the family posted. ONLY five people are supposed to ride in a Ford sedan, but Nosey saw the lady who husband has just acquired a "fliver limosine" pack eight people in and drive off sturdily. They had not gone far in the rain be fore Miss Lizzie either gase out of gas or refused to perform like in sunshine weather. It rained so hard that they could not get out and push, so the lady and her seven gentlemen had to sit there on each other's lap from nine o'clock until twelve thirty. There will be a Ford sedan for sale soon. Both husband and wife agree that it would be better, since his wife knows how to drive it. The husband says he will get an aeroplane next, as his wife does not like the air. SORROWFUL is the man who stood waiting on the corner of Thirty-fifth and Grand Boulevard for a lady he "met" over the crossed wires of the telephone. He waited and he waited and he waited. Nosey happened to be in on those "crossed wires" and recognizes the voice of that little society lady, who will play with fire and firl, no matter where or when. The gentleman was all dolled up like a circus clown and did not know that the lady had passed him twice and looked him over and then pass him up as "impossible." The gentleman had passed up several other engagements for this one. Can you blame him for seeking the "moonshine" after his night was spoiled? EVERY laddie has his lassie" is what they say over in bonnie Scotland, but when you try that stuff on the boulevard, even though you are wearing kilts, somebody is likely to object. Nosey saw a man standing on the sidewalk singing about his lassie whom he presumed was up in the window above. He wore a coat, but his legs were bare to the knees. The window above opened and there descended some water upon the singer and the admonition that some fire would follow. The chanteceler moved off singing under his breath, but Nosey could not get the words; but Nosey knows that there was no mention of the lassie in that song. ESTERDAY and tomorrow are definite terms that are very indefinite. Nosey heard a lady tell a gentleman that she just arrived in town but would see him tomorrow. The gentleman went to the house and found out that she had been in town for eighteen years and never had been out of the city limits during that time. He left word that he would call tomorrow and as he walked down the street we heard him say that his tomorrow would be eighteen years hence. What is sauce for the goose must be sauce for the gander. Who blames him when you think what it had cost him up to date?

Receive Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Smith of Morgan Park received the congratulations of the many people who were in attendance of the anniversary exercises at Bethesden Baptist Church, last Sunday afternoon, on their beautiful home which has recently been completed. Mrs. Ida Smith is past princess of Pride of Illinois Temple, S. M. T. Chicago Pastor Hits Klan In Speech To Cong. Committee The Rev. Dr. S. E. J. Watson, pastor of Pilgrim Baptist Church, was elected to represent the Chicago branch of the National Equal Rights League before the Congressional Committee investigating the Ku Klux Klan. Upon request Dr. Watson repeated at Pilgrim Temple, Tuesday night, the speech he delivered before the committee. He spoke as follows: Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the House Rules Committee: The evidence that has been presented before your committee here today shows that one of the objects of the Ku Klux Klan is to terrorize the people of my race. I do not complain for being a Negro because knowing my people as I do, if equal rights and equal opportunities were given them, I would rather be a Negro, living in the United States of America today, than to be a prince on any other soil. I have come to you to say that 11,000,000 people of my race, American born and truly loyal, do not need, welcome or want any organization in this country that will add anything to the burdens that they already have to bear. The morale of my people in this country needs to be strengthened and not weakened. There is so much terror already in this country that the progress of my people is hindered. Many of them have been awakened at midnight and forced to go out of their back gates and leave all that they have worked for since the days of slavery. Testimony from some of them shows that faces that they have seen in the mob that drove them out have looked them up, played their friends and offered to them railroad fare and a few dollars for their farms and possessions. The social equality mentioned here in the evidence this morning has been made to mean, that a Negro who seeks to make his home sanitary and beautiful is seeking to live like white folk and therefore wants social equality. The wonder with us is why the Ku Klux Klan fears social equality. The real American white man fears nothing unless there is danger in it. By their fear of social equality do they mean to admit that there is danger of having it? My people who went to fight for Democracy expected to find it at home when they returned. They expected the suppression of the mob and the abandonment of the jim-crowism. But they have found, instead of their expectation, the added horrors of the Ku Klux Klan. This brings with its name the memories of the whippings, ravishings and deaths told of by our parents. The report here this morning showed that one officer said to the K. K. K. that thousands of rifles at his command would be turned over to them at their orders. The newspapers have reported that our people are buying guns in some parts of the country. We contend that this or any other organization that will cause such unrest and strike such terror in the hearts of the citizens of this country should be investigated. If the white citizens of any southern town should awaken and find their color changed and were made to feel that they would have to bear what they have put on us, they would raid the drug stores for poison to commit suicide. If the white people of this country feel that they need the wizard of this so-called invisible empire to carry them to some superior or supreme place where their brains and work will not take them, we declare unto you that we do not need him to prevent us from going where our brains and labor will carry us. There should be an end to all of this injustice and we feel that you can now have a part in helping to bring it. The only Negro in America who wears the emblem of this organization had the K. K. K. branded on his face in Dallas, Tex. His picture is produced here. Just why they wanted him to wear this against his will is not known to us. We are satisfied if we are given the emblem of citizens of this visible empire, and because of these rights we ask a full investigation of this order. The University Society Club is composed and admits to membership, students who have completed a high school, college, technical or professional course, or its equivalent.

There: are numerous cases where students of music do not ad- vatice as they should simply because they do not use their practice time as they should, Be it understood that many students do not advance for the reason that they have no real interest in their work and are “merely taking music”—as they say because their friends do or because their relatives desire or require them to do so. But in the majority of eases, the failure to accomplish a reasonable amount of henefit comes because of actual lack of knowledge as to how to procced To instruct the student in the proper method of practice study is first of all the teachers’ duty and no good teacher will fail in this regard. ‘To do so is to admit plainly that one either does not know the fundamental re- quirements of good teaching or that me does not care, In cither case such an instructor should be shunned. \ few helpful suggestions from time to time will rebound naturally to the henefit of the teacher and student. Many people never think of prac- icing one or two measures at a time but grope haltingly through the whole pigce—never even stopping to correct mistakes which they make. Such work can be productive only of faulty, uneven, undesirable playing When’ notes are struck incorrectly, oF the time is not accurately kept, either from nervousness or thoughtlessness, the measure or measures involved should he practiced slowly and evenly (the student counting time) until no mistakes are made, ‘The Musical at’ Bethel A.

Oct. 17.—The individual play of Pollard and all the all-around teamwork of the Akron professional football team proved too much for the Detroit Tigers Sunday at Navin Field, and they won, 20 to 0. Pollard was everywhere about the field. He threw forward passes and received them. He returned punts from twelve to twenty-five yards. He dashed off tackle and twisted his way wide of end. The colored star was all that he reaped to be and to him goes the Ion's share of credit for the Akron victory. Akron Polished Team It was a polished team that Detroit faced, and yet the local linemen might have held their opponents even had it not been for the threat of Pollard in the backfield. If they charged in to stop the colored runner, he passed. If they waited for this pass, he twisted and dodged his way through them. If they ignored him altogether he took a pass from one of his team mates and was away like a streak of lightning. After running back a punt twenty-five yards in the first period, Pollard twisted for several runs and then took a pass from King and scored the first touchdown. The second Akron marker came when Pollard reversed the proceedings and passed to Kramer, sprinted over the line. Bierce recovered a Detroit fumble for the last touchdown. One Chance for Detroit Detroit's only chance to score came in the third quarter with Akron playing a safe game. Line thrusts put the ball on the Akron 13-yard line, but two line plays failed and two passes were grounded and the ball went over. Akron showed the class that has made it champion of the pro class. It scored ten first downs to Detroit's five and had the punch needed to score, whereas Detroit could not advance with the goal posts near. Akron.....Detroit. Robeson.....L. E. Johnson.....L. T. L.

LINCOLN ALL-STAR TEAM VS. WALLACE A. C. SUNDAY Fritz Pollard, coach of The Lincoln Athletic Club, composed of all stars ex-collegiate gridiron stars, has put the finishing touches to the team he has been coaching for the past week and has picked from the big bunch of candidates a team that will without doubt give an account of itself in the rest of the games of the season. ALL STAR TEAM. The newly selected team has practiced together for the past week, since their game last Sunday and now looks more like a grid machine that can give the spectators the real thrill that can come only from seeing a well balanced team work. Mr. William Bottoms, who is backing the Lincoln team, has left no stone unturned to get stars from all over the country and now presents a line-up that bids fair to be sensational in their play. Fritz Follard has worked them out as only Fritz Pollard can. PRICE OF ADMISSION REDUCED Mr. Bottoms, realizing that times ar hard and knowing how many football fans want to see the game, but have hesitated at the price, has reduced the admission from $1.00 to 50c, making it possible for everybody to see the coming games. Thus the greatest stars with pigskin can be seen in action at a reasonable price. The team has a whirlwind attack and many new aerial plays will thrill the crowds. Some of the old Chicago favorites will be seen in action and here an excellent opportunity for comparison is offered. This aggregation of all stars whom Mr. Bottoms has taken over will soon work in machine like unison and some of the best football that has been offered in Chicago is in-store for your. GREAT GAME SUNDAY. GREAT GAME SUNDAY On Sunday, October the 23. Bottom's Lincoln All Stars will clash with the great tea mow Wallace Athletic Club, and one of Chicago's fastest teams. Fritz Pollard, the Lincoln's Conch, has already declared that its will be primed. The Wallace boys avow that they will take away the Stars scals, and a great game is scheduled. The match will be staged at Schorling Park at 2:30 sharp. League's Utility Star 4 FRANK WARFIELD Warfield has been the Det past two years.

A. & T., 33-0 Warfield has been the Detroit Stars second-sacker for the past two years. He was one of the trio of outfielders that aided materially in the big things that the Foster club put over in the East last Fall, and in Florida last Winter. Right now, Warfield is holding down the hot corner in the K. C. Monarchs' line in the post-season scrap. His work in all games has been noteworthy. HOWARD GRUSHES N. C. ST. LOUIS-CARDINAL A. & T., 33-0 CLASH CAUSES GLOOM WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 22. With scores of fans lined up on all sides of Howard's Athletic Field, the "White and Blue" eleven crushed the little (Greensboro) North Carolina Agricultural and Technical College team in a 33 to 0 victory. Howard's effective teamwork was an outstanding feature of the game. With all the men working as a unit, little individual effort was needed to overcome the plucky North Carolinians, who showed from the outset that they were no match for the "White and Blue." Within the first five minutes of play, Howard scored a touchdown. After this early start, there was no doubt of the "White and Blue" eleven's superiority. The visitors showed much courage and tried hard to prevent the onslaught. Not once during the whole game, however, were the North Carolinians able to make a first down. Howard easily put the ball across the goal line once in each of the first three quarters and twice in the fourth quarter. During the game, Coach Morrison made many substitutions. From the type of playing of the men who substituted and the ease with which they entered into the positions played, it appeared as though the team was simply a machine with duplicates of every part. The line-up follows: Howard. A. & T. Nurse L. E. Richmond Fuller (Capt.) L. T. Wilson Smith L. G. Moore Holton Center Malone Melton R. G. Patterson Brooks R. T. Spaulding Williams R. E.

This was the 24th straight victory for the Giants. Pitcher Harney allowed Lancaster one hit, but momentarily lost control in the sixth inning, when three base on balls and a wild pitch allowed Lancaster to score.

The post-season series of games played at St. Louis between the St. Louis Giants of the Negro National League and a bunch of barnstormers, composed in the majority of Cardinals of the National Baseball League, arraised the ire of certain writers on the Mound City papers to such an extent that they took a healthy fling at the mixed show, as follows: In past years there has been inter-city rivalry in a series, East versus West, or something to stir interest, and a certain amount of partisanship, even among outsiders looking in like St. Louis fans. All this was absent this year, and the fans went on about their business. Even the newbys selling "baseball extras" didn't find any scramble for their wares, telling the day's story. There was another contributing factor, a slight one, but not without some effect. While the Giants were playing the big games in New York with the Yankees, the National League team that St. Louis fans considered the best in the Heydler circuit was pulling off a series of games at Sportsman's Park, with a team of negroes and doing it with apparent effort to make the series close for a "grand wind-up." What these Cardinal players, representing nobody but themselves, elected to do after their contracts with their club ran out, may have been their own business. If they could pick up a few dollars playing a negro team before a scattering of colored enthusiasts, all right, from one viewpoint. But from another it was about as bad stuff as could be pulled. True, there will be a long winter to forget it in, but just the same the Cardinals who took part in the grand African show probably will hear about it next spring. In the eyes of the average white St. Louis fan the stunt was bad stuff—finding something under one's pillow could not have been much worse. No One to Shoulder Blame "Who's to blame for letting these, Cardinals play the negroes?" was a question frequently asked during the past week. Nobody answers definitely. Bobby Quinn, business manager of the American League club, which owns the ball park alibis that he rented the park to a representative of the Cardinal players, who said they wished to play some exhibition games, and that he didn't know what team or teams the Cardinals were to play. Messrs. Breadon and Rickey of the Cardinals, who might have had some influence in persuading these players not to make the break into the black and tan league, left for the world's series. Probably they could have done nothing except advise against it had they interested themselves. Milton Stock, third baseman, who seems to be in bad with the club management anyway, was manager of the enterprise, according to reports. Editor's Note—The supervisor of this department took up the matter of the moral attitude of the editor of the St. Louis Sporting News towards the black man in baseball. The answer, which was published in these columns early last winter, savored much of consideration and fairness. However, the St. Louis editor stated that he was a native of Alabama and that he knew some mighty good dark folks down there. Milton Stock, Cardinal third baseman, who managed the St. Louis Giant-Cardinal games, is also a native of Alabama. There may be a reason for the gloom. THE CHICAGO WHIP GOORDIN WINS PENTATHLON IN A. A. U. MEET Harvard's Colored Star and the World's Broad Jump Champion Shines NEW YORK, Oct. 13.—Ned Gourdin of Harvard University and world's running broad jump record holder, added more laurels to his career yesterday afternoon when he won the national A. A. U. pentathlon championships, conducted by the New York A. C. at Travers Island. The Harvard man scored twelve points, winning by one point from the Erbal, who registered thirteen. Benjamin Lightman of the Pastime A. C. was third, with fourteen tallies. Of the five events contested to decide the title, the Gourdin won three of them, finished thirteen in the fourth and a hopeless last in the 1,500 meter run. Had Erbal who finished third in this event, be able to gain first or second place he would have won the title or tied Gourdin for the honors. In the sprint and running broad jump Gourdin won handily, as he did in the javelin throw. In the discus throw, the champion surprised the spectators by finishing in third place, an event he had never competed in before. ARTISTIC LACING FOR PANAMA JOE GANS ARTISTIC LACING FOR PANAMA JOE GANS BOSTON, MASS., Oct. 19.—Jock Malone of St. Paul and Panama Joe Gans of New York, two of the cleverest middleweights in the country, had it out to a decision Wednesday night at the Boston Arena before about 5,000 fans. Malone failed to stop the colored warrior as he had promised to do, but he came near enough to it to win the award. The affair went the full route, but in the last stanazan Gans was both shaky and wooled, and was wavering to lay his hand on the ability to make his legs take him out of danger and bad corners had a lot to do with his going the limit. Makes Good Start In the Malore-Gans mill, Gans had the better of the opening stanzas, with the St. Paul star beginning to warm up in the fourth, which he evened. Malone took the fifth by a small margin, also the sixth. During the rest period the men were warned by the referee to put on more steam, many of the fans away from the ring thinking that the boxers were not trying. They took a spurt, Malone opening the seventh with two hard lefthand uppercuts to the body that shook up Gains. The latter rallied, and in a mix-up drove a straight left to Malone's nose that brought a trickle of color. Jock hung back with a shower of short rights to the ribs that had the colored man guessing and plainly worried. Gans made a rally in the eighth, but ran against two short rights to the jaw that sent him reeling into a neutral corner. By dancing and skipping, Gans managed to escape the impending kayo, but he pushed the session in poor shape. Malone pushed his arm in a minute and the sound it had was a tightening session from bell-to-bell, as Panama came back ganny. In the last minute Malone hooked a right to the jaw that hurled Gans against the ropes. Gans Backs Up Gans was still tired when he came out for the tenth, and as Malone went after him red hot, was forced to do a lot of running backwards, hopping and dodging to escape punishment. Malone played for the jaw and put left and right drives to the body, but without damage. For his part, Joe fired back with lefts and rights to the head, but many of his blows missed, while those landed lacked steam. Malone won the round and bout. HAMPTON DEFEATS ST. PAUL, 25-2 HAMPTON, VA., Oct. 22.—The Hampton Institute football eleven defeated the St. Paul Normal and Industrial School 25 to 2 in the first game of the season, played on Hampton's gridiron on Saturday, October 8. The St. Paul team this year is said to be the best that has ever represented that school. A big delegation came from Lawrenceville to see their team surprise the Hampton eleven and its supporters. The two points made by the visitors came at the beginning of the game, when the Hampton eleven made three successive fumbles, the last in an attempt to kick from behind the goal line. The St. Paul aggregation was wild with joy, but its joy was of short duration. At no other time during the game were the Hamptonians in danger. The Hampton team, although composed mostly of new material, did some effective playing. The backfields of both teams apparently found it difficult to handle the pigskin and fumbles were frequently made. The big game of the season at Hampton will be played with Howard University on November 12. Great rivalry has long existed between these two teams. Summary! Score: Hampton 25, St. Paul 2.

MOUND DUEL GOES TO BONO KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 19.—Few better games have been seen here this season than that battle the Blues and the Monarchs staged before an appreciative crowd of 7,200 fans Sunday at Association Park. Good pitching, brilliant fielding and the closeness of the struggle made it worth while. Then the Blues had to come from behind in the ninth to win, 3 to 2, after the negro club had tied the score in the first half of the final round. Gus Bono and Joe Rogan, who were the opposing pitchers in last Sunday's game, engaged in another mound duel "Bullet Joe" had a shade the better of the battle for seven innings, holding the Blues to a pair of singles during that time. The Monarchs turned over a 1-run lead to Rogan in the fourth and that lonely mark loomed large until Bill Good's men finally broke through the Monarch defense in the eighth. A single by Bono, Paskert's single, which sent the pitcher to third, Good's infield out and Brief's double sent home the two runs in the eighth. Friberg ran for Paskert and later took Dode's place in the outfield. Then came the first of the ninth. The Monarchs needed a run to tie. Bono had two strikes on Lloyd, the first man to face him in the ninth. The batter swung at a high fast ball a legitimate wild pitch, and beat Skiff's throw to first. Fagan forced Lloyd at second, but Donaldson drove a two-base hit down the left, field foul line, and before the ball was returned to the infield Fagan had carried in the tying run. Then came the most brilliant play of the game. Rogan walloped a Bons fast ball high and far to deep left. It looked as though the pellet was headed for the bleachers, but Friberg, judging the ball perfectly, pulling it down in the left field corner close to the fence. With the score 2 to 2, the Blues lost no time in getting to Rogan in their half. They changed their style of attack. Cochran led off with a single, Skiff bunted safely past Rogan and the youthful Wright duplicated the catcher's feat, loading the bases. Bono then knocked a Rogan pitch into right field and Cochran brought in the vanning run. Bono allowed only five hits, only two of which came in a single inning. He fanned seven and issued only one pass. The score: Monarchs A. B. R. BH. PO. A. E.

Skiff injured his ankle when he stumbled over first base in the ninth, and Carter was inserted into the line-up as a pinch runner. Members of the two teams will divide a good-sized purse. More than twenty thousand persons have attended the four games. The Monarchs pulled two fast double plays. The first came in the opening inning with a pair of Blues on the bags, while the second was made in the fourth.

A. leaguers, aided and abetted by one Joe Rogan, in which five athletes ambled across the home zone, was the final straw which tickled the negro club into a 10 to 8 defeat. When the Blues went to bat in the first of the ninth the score stared at them, 8 to 5, to favor the Monarchs. It's very glum they were, little knowing, of course, how downright generous a pitcher or so can become. It happened thusly: Glen Wright had been walked and after Mr. Pete Scott, who assumed Pitcher Lambert's role as batter, had whiffed gloriously at a few of Rile's shoots, Berney Friberg found a hole around second base and pickled the sphere thereabout which lodged him safely on first Wright perched on third. Tham Crawford sent a signal of distress to his star moundsman, "Bullet" Joe Rogan; the latter took a few preliminary pitches. Then he buried a pitch in Artie Butler's anatomy. And the bases were filled. Good and Brief took turns looking fiercely anxious to paste the ball out of the lot, but "Bullet" Joe wanted there to be no question as to his generosity. So he coiled the bulb with carefree abandon and the "umps" was careful in each instance to bellow whatever was his enunciation of "ball." Two runs were forced in by this method of procedure and Zwilling's long sacrifice fly to Donaldson sent the tying counter about. Whereupon Shortstop Lloyd allowed a hit to elude him and two more runners were in. Oscar Horstman, whose name had a familiar ring, then sent back the negroes in their half of the ninth. Oscar Fuhr started for the Blues and lasted long enough to account for four of the Monarch runs. Don Lambert then pitched until the ninth "Rube" Currie was the Monarch's starter, but gave way in the eighth to Rile.

HOW THE CLUBS FINISHED THE SEASON By Dave Wyatt. The 1921 season of the N. N. League officially came to a close upon Sunday, October 2. Detroit and Columbus ended the season with a twin bill, which Columbus won. But one game of the two counted in the official standing of clubs, the first game upon the above mentioned date completing fifteen games between the two clubs, which covers the alloted number of exchanged games between all clubs of the league as per schedule. Owing to the many varied circumstances, among which was allotment of exhibition games to associated members of the organization, unexpected fall of attendance at both week-day and Sunday games in many cities, extended railroad jumps and the difficulty entailed in drawing a schedule to avoid conflict with other leagues, the full schedule of games could not be run off. Still the majority of clubs succeeded in running off the allotted fifteen exchanged contests. The Chicago American Giants acquired the big honors of the season, finishing in first place with a percentage of .662 in sixty-five games. St. Louis annexed second place with a figure of .583 in seventy-two games, just one point above Kansas City, the latter's percentage of .583 nineteen times, giving them third place. Detroit finished fourth after being in first place for more than a month and settled at the halfway mark of .500 in sixty-six games. Indianapolis annexed fifth place with a .487 finish in seventy-eight games. Columbus settled in sixth position in seventy-two games for a percentage of .444. Cincinnati (Cuban Stars) finished seventh in seventy-one contests, percentage .408. The Chicago Giants settled in eighth place for a percentage of .222 in forty-five games. St. Louis topped the league on percentage of games won upon foreign soil; Kansas City was second best on the road, while the Chicago American Giants were third. The Foster club grabbed the biggest per cent of home games, Kansas City second best on home Louis was only third-player at home. Columbus proved to be a strong home playing club, finishing fourth on home play.

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. Social Lines. Social Lines. Every country has its lines of social distinction. In the African jungles, the Australian bush, the Arabian deserts, the Siberian snowfields and in the teeming centers of civilization. Everywhere we find social distinctions and lines of difference severely drawn. Strange to observe and still stranger to realize, the majority of Americans, both white and black, seem to think that black people are all alike, and there are and should not be any lines of social separation among them. It has been vehemently maintained that all black people are the same, think the same and have the same desires. This statement reduces itself to an absurdity without argument. No refutation is necessary. Any conclusions reached and any ideas that formed from the idea of the "social oneness" of the black people are foolish and absurd. There exist three social classes of black people. These three classes exist with sharply defined lines of demarcation, notwithstanding the fact that the average black and white American fails to recognize them. There is the black aristocracy. This so-called aristocracy is composed of those who have been highly educated and have been more or less successful in accumulating the world's goods. The aristocracy attempts feebly to hold itself aloof from the middle classes and the rabble. The black aristocracy is no more race conscious than prejudice, color restriction and race identity force it to be. It moves in its own circumscribed orbit, is controlled by its own superciliousness, has all the earmarks of the universal "four hundred." It is a dismal failure, because it is scoffed at and disrespected by rabble and the middle class and is utterly ignored by the white race. The fault of the black aristocracy is its inopportuneness. The aristocracy of the black race cannot be recognized until the black race is recognized. The mass of black people regard the aristocrats as humbugs because outside races do so. The development of the upper and lower crusts of the black race, like the formation of strata and substrata, is accomplished like all stratification—by natural forces operating thru the centuries. At the present time, the black man's caste system seems to stunt his growth and scatter the forces of advancement, and like the caste system of India, has made it easily possible to allow the dominant influence of stronger races to subject him. The second class of black people is the middle class. This class seems to be the most valuable type. It is race conscious, ambitious and industrious. The middle class is found in constructive organizations, adapting itself to changing environment. Many black people of wealth and intelligence have identified themselves with the middleers. This class ridicules the vain glory of the aristocracy, is on good terms with the rabble and is always seeking to correct the failings of the race. The third class is the rabble, the riff raff and the inevitable under dog. He has a low order of intelligence, makes small wages from laborious work or preys upon humanity for a livelihood as the leech and other parasites. He is the common offender socially, criminally and civilly. He has little or no refinement or vision and is always seen to disadvantage. The rabble is racially conscious because he is religiously avoided both by the other race and the aristocrats of his own race. His lack of intelligence leaves him adrift upon a sea of prejudice, ignorance and vice. He is the social type that the white man invariably holds up as "the American negro." Social lines exist within the confines of the black race as they do among all other races, and they will exist until the advance of socialistic philosophy levels all humanity. The white race must recognize the fact that black people are not all the same, and black people must realize that they have both superiors and inferiors among themselves. No snobbish and general aloofness can be tolerated, however, in the great fight for race solidarity and recognition. All classes must work toward the common goal. Let the aristocracy aid the rabble and encourage the middlers. The lineage, wealth and intelligence of the black aristocrat must be used to convert the mind of the world from the idea that the rabble should be the accepted standard of the whole race. Let the rear guard and the vanguard present a solid front to the armies of prejudice, disregard and discrimination. Fools for the National Game Fools for the National Game Notwithstanding the fact that black baseball players are not allowed to play in the National and American leagues, notwithstanding the fact that all other nationalities on the face of the globe are admitted, still the champion fanatics of America are black people. In the recent world series, it is reported that in the wee hours of the night a member of our race was seen to prop himself at the Polo Grounds in New York, there to wait for twenty hours for the gates to open for the great game. Over twenty-five thousand black people paid an admission price of almost two dollars to witness a fiasco in which they are denied a part. This gives an idea of how much race pride the black people have and how much self-respect they have developed. It is bad enough to ride on Jim Crow cars, but to go into ecstacies over a Jim Crow sport is unforgivable. What will Judge Landis say about it? TORIAL HEALTH HINTS By Dr. Troy Smith MOONSHINE The National Prohibition Act of October 28, 1919 has been in effect since Jan. 17, 1920, yet we are told that crimes as the result of alcoholism are on the increase, and they are of a more desperate and violent nature than before the act was effective. We are also told by the police department that arrests as the result of intoxicating liquors are on the increase and the drunkard of today is worse than the drunkard of yesterday. We are told by physicians, in charge of hospitals, that more people are entered with the diagnosis of acute alcoholism than heretofore and the injury produced by alcohol is of a more lasting effect, the injury oftentimes resulting in a permanent one. We are told by those in charge of psychopathic hospitals that insanity is on the increase as the result of alcoholism. Undertakers tell us there are more deaths as the result of alcoholism than before. 1776 Dr. David Clark, head of the insane hospital of Detroit said in the Detroit Sunday News Sept. 8, 1921, in regard to alcoholism of the present day—"Cases of acute alcoholism is Detroit private hospitals have increased tive. The cases are much more serious than they used DR TROY SMITH to be and there are a great many more deaths. In former tive. The cases are much more serious than they used to be and there are a great many more deaths. In former years it was most unusual for us to have a death from alcoholism, now it is more or less a common occurrence." What is true of Detroit is true in any other city where "moonshine" is plentiful. The reasons for the increase in crime, in arrests from intoxicating liquors, in poison cases of pure alcoholism, in insane cases, in permanent injury due to alcohol and the increase death rate does not mean that the alcohol of to many is more deadly than that of yesterday, but criminal adulteration of alcoholic spirits and unlawful manufacturing of the same is the thing that is wrecking the lives of so many people. Pure grain alcohol is often used in medicine and there are oftentimes in the practice of medicine when pure bonded, distilled whiskey is indicated for the relief of the sick. However, the habitual use of alcohol by healthy persons, all authorities agree that it is a luxury, that it is entirely unnecessary for the growth and maintenance of the body, and it neither promotes greater healthfulness nor in any way retards the onset of disease. Note the above said pure grain alcohol and pure bonded whiskey made under the proper government regulations and supervised by expert chemists, who extract the poisonious products before it is placed on the market, is used in medicine. The "home brew" or "moonshine" as made by the boot-legger, who just as soon as to give you bichloride or some other slow poison, is not fit for human consumption because most of the "moonshine" contains wood alcohol. Wood alcohol is a very deadly poison and is never used in medicine. It is not even good for rubbing purposes. The damage the "moonshine" has done and is doing to the human family cannot be told in this short article but as a health measure I urge that its consumption should be stopped and soon the unlawful manufacturing of the same will come to a standstill. THE WEEK'S BEST EDITORIAL (Chicago Tribune, Wednesday, Oct. 19, 1921.) Jack Dempsey, now sparring around in Chicago gymnasiums, says that he expects to fight Jess Willard and to get a real battle from him. When Willard was younger and presumably weaker Dempsey slaughtered him, but Jess has been growing older and developing since then. He probably measures more around the waist and stands heavier on his feet. In spite of Jack's misgivings regarding himself and his fear that Willard is getting better as he ages, like whisky, our money is on him if they ever put Jess where he can hit him. There is another big fellow that not much is said about, next to nothing by Dempsey and not much more by any one else. This other fellow is black, Mr. Harry Wills, who is reputed to be some smoke. We have 10 cents which says that Mr. Dempsey can knock Mr. Willard into the middle of Lake Michigan, but if we needed car fare to Wilson avenue we'd not risk so much money on' Mr. Dempsey versus Mr. Wills. If the world's champion intends to bar out the black fighters he may have to modify the description of his championship. He will become white heavyweight champion. The world is not a southern congressional district where the blacks are counted but not voted. Mr. Wills may contend that if Mr. Dempsey says he's the best he ought of be willing to prove it. In training, Jack never shows much social social feeling. He takes the black boys on then. It is intimated that he personally would not mind getting into the ring with Wills, but wonders whether it would be the best thing for the white race if by any chance a black man beat him up. Query: Would the prestige of the white race then suffer so that the French would have trouble in Senegal and the British in the old German African colonies? Jack does not want to embarrass the white race, and we admire his judgment. We do not urge him to take any chances if he feels that it is a serious question. He probably has a pretty good line on Wills. If he believes that he would have more than an even break with the dark boy, if he has confidence in himself and believes he could win, it might be advisable to try it and round out his championship. If he has much doubt then playing safe is the best policy. If that's his decision we'll shut up and say no more about it. For a time, anyway. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures, In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils. A certain choir affiliated with one of the largest Methodist churches of Chicago will sing some of the old slave melodies in Oak Park on the evening of October the twenty-eighth. Why the choir is being advertised as perpetuating these relics of slavery and why the choir will even sing these songs which bring back the dreadful and shameful memories of slavery we are unable to tell. It seems that a proud and progressive people would seek to wipe out all memories of serfdom and slavery. The black people are strange in some respects. Congress has suspended investigation of the Ku Klux Klan and has gone about more "important" business. The tears of the "Wizard" and his dramatic plea "that they know not what they do" must have made quite an impression, because he was permitted to go back to Georgia and to the home of the hooded terrors under the promise that he would modify his policy. The five shots which were fired at Mrs. Tyler, one of the big "mucks" in the Invisible Empire, seems to be a part of the spectacular program of the "100 per cent Americans." It seems that Congress is afraid it will step upon too many toes and that would be poor public policy. Poor Congress! It is reported that Henry Lincoln Johnson will soon be confirmed. He may be confirmed by the Senate committee, but he will never be confirmed by the celestial committee which passes upon the fitness of men to enter into the land of eternal reward. Lincoln Johnson, in his own heart, knows that he is not a fit representative of the black people in America, and any who know of his activities in Chicago preceding the election of President Harding will agree. Yet fate sometimes plays a peculiar card. The Earth Is Your Security BOND 8% INTEREST SAFE SECURE SOUND BUSINESS W. Scott When Your Money Is Secured By Real Estate.
