Marshal Foch in Response to Greeting from Howard Praises the University and the Work of the American Colored Soldiers. Marshal Foch, in responding to the greeting of Howard University, said: "I find it very easy to express my sentiments of gratitude for the cordial reception accorded me, when I recollect the commendable and indispensable service rendered by the colored troops upon the soil of France. I knew well that Howard University contributed largely in the war. I knew also that through the love and energy of this great institution of learning as manifested for France, that the soldiers actuated by these impulses gloriously fought in France. Although our green sod now covers the bones of many of your beloved comrades, France shall not forget the magnificent efforts of Howard University, and the costly sacrifices made by the Colored soldiers, the shedding of their blood upon the altar of freedom shall mark an important epoch in the history of human action. I can assure you that the French people are lavishing both love and care upon the tombs of the American soldiers whose bodies are now in France." In the requests which were made by Dr. Emmett J. Scott, who served during the World War as Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, in the effort to have Marshall Foch visit the Howard University, attention was called to the important part (Continued on Page 2.) The Chicago Whip 1 This is Harry Wills, the bronze Gladiator of the ring, whom the experts claim is the world's greatest exponent of the manly art of self defense. Wills is a clean fighter with a clean record, but Jack Dempsey refuses to give him a match. Dempsey, who is the white Champion of the world, avoids Wills and hides behind the pretext that the public does not want the match. The sport loving public and those who favor fair play want the heavy weight crown to adorn the head of the best boxer in the world, regardless of race or color. Is Dempsey afraid of Wills? LAWYER VANISHES FROM SECOND BOMBING, ROCKS BOAT. FEAR SUICIDE DENVER MAN'S HOME WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.—The mysterious disappearance of Attorney Harry L. Tignor after having registered on a steamer from Baltimore to Norfolk, Va., is believed to be a case of suicide. It is claimed by the officials of the Chesapeake Steamship Company that Lawyer Tignor was seen on the boat after it left Baltimore. There was found in his stateroom, No. 139, his cap, coat and a letter, type written on foolscap paper and it was pasted onto one of his letter heads. An official of the steamship company in Washington Thursday and interviewed Dr. C. A. Tignor, who says that he can guarantee the authenticity of the letter as that of his brother Harry. The letter recites incidents having occurred between him and his wife which is the basis for his being tired of life and wishing to end it all. CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 26th, 1921 DENVER, Colo. Nov. 26.—All the windows were blown out and holes were torn in the walls of the home of Charles E. Starr, 2112 Gilpin Street, here, when the second bomb was exploded in an effort to drive Starr and his family from their home. He was illuminated with a long neighborhood row over the occupancy of the home by Starr and his family.

MIDDLETONS' MARITAL WOES STIR SOCIETY MIDDLETONS' MARITAL WOES STIR SOCIETY PoliceQuellFamily Fracas Chicago's smart set is once more agog, this time concerning the marital difficulties of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Middleton, both well known in elite social circles. Middleton and his wife, who was formerly Miss Pearl Mayo, are at present separated pending the outcome of an episode which occurred at a football game between the University of Michigan and Wisconsin U. at Madison, Wis., several days ago. It appears, from the meagre information which can be obtained, that Middleton, who is a former student of Michigan U., made elaborate plans to attend the game, telling his wife that he was going along with other male friends. Mrs. Middleton, it seems, however, suspected that her husband had other plans in mind. Accordingly she reached Madison a few hours behind her husband, to either confirm or dispel her suspicions. At the football game it is said she finally located her husband, who is said to have been in company with a white girl and another man, who was white. As Mrs. Middleton approached the party, Middleton is said to have attempted eo explain the situation by saying that he was only a third member of the party, and that the white girl was not in his company. Mrs. Middleton returned to Chicago triumphantly with her husband and the affair was thought to be at an end. When the two reached their home at 6408 St. Lawrence Ave., it is said that hostilities broke out anew. This time Middleton is said to have been the aggressor. His anger at the embarrassment caused him by his wife took the form of violence, and it is said that he smashed furniture and dishes, and tore his wife's clothing until policemen arrived at the behest of terrified neighbors. Sight of the policemen threw oil upon the troubled waters, and policemen are said to have agreed not to make an arrest. The next day a separation was effected between the two, Mrs. Middleton going to the home of her mother. In the interim their child, Donald, I year of age, has disappeared and cannot be located. Mrs. Middleton charges that her husband has secreted the child. It is said that Mrs. Middleton will sue for divorce, alimony, and the custody of the child. SHERIFF INDICTED FOR CRUELTY TO PRISONERS STATESBORO, Ga., Nov. 26. After investigating charges against Sheriff B. T. Mallard, of Bullock county, for two days, the grand jury Tuesday afternoon returned a bill charging cruelty to prisoners. The other investigation grew out of charges of using county funds, but in this instance no bill was returned. "I have never wipped but one man," said Sheriff Mallard, after learning the true bill had been returned. "This was one of the four who burned a dwelling house and became very insolent, and I thought he needed a beating." The charges for using county funds grew out of the fact of the sheriff having collected insolvent taxes before he could have a settlement with the former tax collector. He put the money on time certificate, it was shown, and returned the interest on this deposit. MINISTER FALLS DEAD IN PULPIT Tragic End To Sermon Services at the Pilgrim Rest Baptist Church, 37th St. and Indiana Ave., were brought to a sudden and dramatic end Sunday night, when the Rev.

Sobers, one of Chicago's most popular citizens, died very suddenly Sunday evening at ten o'clock. While his death was unexpected, he had been under the care of Dr. Geo. C. Hall for several weeks, suffering from the results of an assault made on him by Norman Cumberbatch, one of his employees, which was responsible for his death. Billy, as he was known by his host of friends, was possessed of all the traits that goes to make a man and a friend. To know him, was to love him. He came to Chicago in 1890 and in 1893 he entered into the tailoring business which he made a success. He was in business a very short time in the neighborhood before he became one of the most popular men in the business and was a general favorite of both white and colored people. When the Chicago Beach hotel was opened up, he was asked by his personal friend and Manager W. R. Ross, to put a shop in the hotel, and from the day he opened the shop, until his death, he maintained the respect of managers, clerks, guest and employees. He was always dignified, yet pleasant when you met him. He was born in Barbados, West Indies. His death is mourned by a host of friends. The funeral services will be held Wednesday afternoon at one o'clock from St. Thomas Episcopal Church 38th and Wabash Avenue. He is survived by a son, Ernest Sobers. Cumberbatch was arrested at the time of the assault, but was released because he had not been arrested by a warrant. He disappeared at the time of Sobers' death, and is being sought by the police.

ASKS CONGRESS TO INVESTIGATE HOUSTON RIOT WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.—Untiring efforts of friends of members of the 24th Infantry, who were convicted of implication in the Houston riots of August, 1917, have resulted in the passage of a resolution in the House of Representatives, calling upon the Secretary of War to investigate the case from beginning to end. The resolution hints that evidence has not proved that all the men convicted actually participated in the riots, and calls attention to the large amount of clemency which has been extended in the cases of other military prisoners. The resolution, which was submitted by Representative Anthony, reads as follows: RESOLVED. That the Secretary of War is requested to transmit to the House of Representatives at the earliest possible moment the following information for the members of the House: Whether the evidence before the court which tried those soldiers of the United States Army who were alleged to have been implicated in the riot at Houston, Texas, on the 23rd day of August, 1917, as a result of which 19 were hanged, 62 sent to the United States penitentiary for life, and five given sentences of fifteen years each, showed the direct participation of all of them in said riot; whether or not it is true that some of these soldiers now under confinement were found guilty merely because they were absent from roll call the evening of the riot; what steps if any, the War Department has taken or is taking toward the investigation of the justice of the severe penalties inflicted upon these soldiers, together with information as to their conduct, discipline, and behavior during the years they have been in confinement; and what steps have been taken by the War Department, in view of the large measure of clemency which has been extended in the cases of other military prisoners, to pardon or extend clemency to the men now under going severe punishment for alleged participation in said riot.

Already several families have joined the colony, which is sixty miles south of San Diego and five miles inland from the coast. D BY FIRST BURNS BODY CARRY CORPSE IN WAGON FROM MOB TO MOB No Arrests Made As Yet HELENA, Ark., Nov. 28.—Southern mob violence ran the full gamut of unrestrained laziness here Friday night when William Turner, less than twenty years of age, was hanged and shot to death by one mob, and his corpse taken a short distance away, saturated with gasoline, and burned to ashes by another. It was the first lynching ever to be staged in Helena County. Earlier in the day Turner had been arrested for an alleged attack upon a 15-year-old white girl. At the time of his arrest he was shot in the leg by a brother of his alleged victim. The would, although painful, was not serious. Sheriff Flees With Man. Throughout the day crowds of white men loitering about the court house indicated that a lynching would be attempted at night. About dark Sheriff Jack placed Turner in an automobile and started for Marianna, in an evident attempt to escape the mob. A short distance out of the city the automobile was stopped by a crowd of twenty-five white men who "overpowered" the sheriff and his deputies and took Turner from their custody. No shots were fired by the sheriff and his party in their efforts to retain possession of their prisoner. Jail Is Stormed. Before news reached here that the prisoner had been taken from the sheriff, the mob stormed the jail, broke down the doors, and instituted a search for Turner. They failed to find him. The man was being lynched by the twenty-five men who had taken him from the sheriff a short distance from the town. Send Ambulance for Corpse SEND Ambulance for Corpse. After Turner had been shot and beaten to death, a city ambulance was sent to the city to carry him, bringing his body back to the city. When the ambulance containing the body returned to the town, the crowd surrounded it and dragged the body from the vehicle. Clothing from the body was stripped away, and the naked corpse was carved to the center of the little city park, where gasoline was applied in generous quantities. Somebody applied a match, and the body was soon reduced to ashes. Ku Klux Quiz Forever Dead WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.—The Ku Klux Klan investigation has received its quietus. The resolution for the congressional inquiry lies in a stupor, if not dead, in the House rules committee. Col.

SOUTH STIRRED BY DEMAND FOR EQUALITY LYNCHBURG, Va., Nov. 26.—The sensation of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History which convened in Lynchburg last week, proved to be the address of Dr. E. B. Crooks, president of Randolph-Macon College, a white institution located near Lynchburg. In his address, Dr. Crooks used the President's speech at Birmingham and endorsed the stand on the question of social equality and racial amalgamation recently taken by President Harding, Dr. Crooks advised the audience of nearly one thousand of the leading colored citizens of Lynchburg to "develop a self-respect" and to "recognize the 'impossible uff the former' separates the Negro from the whites" "because the woman who cultivates a little flower garden and paints the fence in front of his home is helping the race by this visible evidence of self respect," continued the worthy Doctor. "Ask your leaders if I am not right on this score. Ask Dr. Moton. I am sure that he will agree with me." At the conclusion of the address Dr. C. G. Woodson, Director of the Association, rose to make reply as a breathless silence fell upon the great gathering. Speaking clearly, slowly and in a most emphatic manner, the Director opened his remarks by stating first that he wanted to give Dr. Crooks a little information on the Negro question. He then proceeded to enlighten the worthy Doctor to the effect that President Harding nor any other white man could not speak for Negroes, nor could he understand what Negroes were thinking about; secondly he stated very decidedly that neither was Robert Russia Moton in a position to speak for Negroes because his so-called leadership had long since been repudiated by all intelli gent and self-respecting Negroes "My dear sir," continued Dr. Woodson, "you and all white men have the wrong conception of what Negroes mean by social equality. We are not seeking to marry white women, red women, yellow women, or any other color of women; but we do want to ride decently in a railroad train or street car when we come into your State of Virginia. We do want the right to go to the polls and exercise our constitutional right to vote and to hold office; we do want the privilege of sitting where we please in theatres, railroad stations and other places of public assembly. And for these rights the Negro intends to剑C arrest him he dies." According to officials of the Association, the conference which has just been concluded has been the most successful in the annals of the Association. Fully three thousand persons attended the various sessions during the two days of the conference. Scholars and students of history, white and colored, assembled from all parts of the country to take part in the proceedings. Several prominent white, southerners including John H. Hawkins, were present. Among those who contributed to the program were: Prof. Chas. H. Wesley, Howard University; Prof. John R.

GRAND JURY FINDS TEXAS SHERIFF IS KLANSMAN AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 19.—Words were not minced in the report filed by the Travis County grand jury which investigated the Ku Klux Klan upon special charge given by District Judge James R. Hamilton. The klan is condemned from a legal standpoint and otherwise. A part of the report is that the sheriff of Travis County, W. D. Miller, admitted being a member of the klan and paid $16.50 as an entrance fee, and that the police commissioner of Austin, chief of police and a city detective, who investigated the only tarring and feathering party in Austin availed themselves of their constitutional right and refused to tell the grand jury whether they were members of the klan or not. No action resulted from the tarring and feathering. No indictments were returned, but the report states a secret list of names was obtained of persons supposed to be members of the klan. These are not made part of the report because of "the danger of assassination through revenge," says the grand jury. It says that a mistake might occur and "the very man wrongfully named be cut down."

SET EARLY DATE TO BEGIN HOME DEVELOPMENT During the past two weeks the Real Estate Mortgage and Bond Corporation has gained a number of subscribers on the North Shore. Last Thursday evening a large meeting was held in Waukegan, Illinois, under the auspices of the Rev. Harry E. Johnson. It is expected from the interest manifested in the Corporation that it will be able to start a comprehensive home development movement along the North Shore that will center about Waukegan. The situation there is about the same as it is here in Chicago, in Glencoe especially, the colored people have either been bought out by the Glencoe Improvement Association, or those who had property with mortgages on it have lost their property through foreclosure. Having had the situation brought forcibly to them, the people along the North Shore are anxious to help make a success of an organization that bids fair to make this part of the country safe for those who wish to live in decent respectable homes and bring their children up in the proper surroundings.

On those dates will be held the Twentleth National Conference of the Colored Men's Department of the Young Men's Christian Associations of North America. As the time for the conference draws near, the indications not only as to attendance but as to the usefulness of the conference become increasingly assuring. Arrangements for the conference are now virtually complete. Reduced rates have been obtained on all railroads for the delegates. They are expected to be on hand for the opening session at 8 p. m. on Thursday, December 1st, and should go promptly on arrival at Cincinnati to the Y. M. C. A. branch at 636 Ninth street. Guides will meet all incoming trains. Lodging and breakfast can be secured in Cincinnati for $1.50 per day and other meals will be available at reasonable rates in the Y. M. C. A. cafeteria. The registration fee of $3.00 charged to all delegates is applied to meeting the expense of the conference which is self-supporting and self-entertainment. Registration by mail, to J. E. Moorland, 347 Madison Ave., New York City, rather than by waiting until arrival at Cincinnati, is preferable because the delegate is thus sure of securing entertainment facilities. The many friends in Cincinnati, both white and colored, of the Colored Men's Department are co-operating to make the stay of the various delegations a most pleasant one. Those in charge of the preparation of the program point out that this will be a conference in the truest sense of the word, not a formal series of meetings in which only selected speakers will have opportunity to express their opinions. The aim is to make the whole occasion especially helpful to lay-workers and every effort is therefore being made to have the entire committee of management or board of directors of each Young Men's Christian Association in attendance. The conference program will concern itself with the needs of colored men and boys, and how their needs may be met through the co-operative effort of Christian individuals and Christian agencies. The coordination of the practical and inspirational in the program becomes evident by a glance at some of the topics for addresses and discussion, as follows: Christian Brotherhood the Hope of the World; Outstanding Needs of the Colored Men and Boys of America; Our Responsibility to Africa; Fundamentals of Organization and Operation of the Young Men's Christian Association; The Status of the Colored Men's Department in the Brotherhood; The Qualifications and Duties of a Committeeman; Factors Involved in an Enlarged Program; Nation-Wide Co-operation. In order that the best of information and the fullest measure of intellectual and inspirational resources may be available for the conference, able and representative leaders have been secured as speakers. Their task will be to open the way for the discussions and group conferences which follow these addresses. Among the speakers will be the following: Dr. John R. Mott, New York, N. N.; President John Hope, Atlanta, Ga.; L. Wilbur Messer, Chicago, III.; Prof. Frank L. Williams, St. Louis, Mo.; Bishop Robert E. Jones, New Orleans, La.; Dr. R. R.

FEAR HAITI MAY LOSE HER INDEPENDENCE WASHINGTON, Nov. 26—Uncle Uncle Sam plans to gobble up Haiti, Rumors so this effect are going around official Washington and creating consternation among the friends of the little black Republic. Since the Wilson regime which sent the United States marines and battleships to Haiti, the Senate investigating committee has discovered that over two thousands Haitians have been massacred by the American soldier destroyed and the Government nullified. At one time John Mollenhir, white, United States agent on the Island, held up the salary of the Haitian President and other officials because they refused to sign a treaty giving the United States sovereign rights on the Island. It is well understood here that the State Department, under Secretary Hughes, is following the Wilson policy, is gradually absorbing Haiti as a part of the United States. As a beginning in this direction islanders have been forbidden to hold an election of members to the legislature this January. There are ninety-five members of the so-called Chamber of Communes of Haiti, one for each Community chosen for three years by direct popular vote, and the Senate has thirty-nine members chosen for six years. The President is elected for seven years by two Chambers in joint session. Refusal of the United States to allow an election of Legislators next January means that there will be no election of a President to succeed the present chief executive, who it is said, at the expiration of his office will step down and the Government will go completely into hands of the United States. Action on the part of the State Department is the culmination of years of effort on the part of Uncle Sam to get control of Haiti, an island of ten thousand square miles, inhabited by one million colored people. Only two hundred whites are on the Island which has four towns of more than fifteen thousand population. White bankers and business men, kept out of the island as long as it was a Republic, will be able to get their hands on fertile lands and rich mineral deposits of gold, copper, iron, tin, sulphur, and coal as soon as the United States has nominal control. Bishop John Hurst of the A. M. E. Church, a native Haitian, is one of those who is protesting the highhanded procedure of the United States in invading and taking possession of the lands of a weaker nation. WILEY UNIVERSITY HAS TWO FIRES IN TEN DAYS MARSHALL, Tex., Nov. 26.—A fire of unknown origin was discovered by students in King Hall, a five room bungalow occupied by young lady students of the University late Friday night.

THE CHICAGO WHIP ZUEBLIN, FRIEND OF DEMOCRACY SPEAKS HERE The Annual Meeting of the Chicago Urban League will be held at Lincoln Center, Oakwood boulevard and Langley avenue, Friday, December 9, 1921. Mr. Charles Zuebim, a noted writer and lecturer of Boston, will speak He is rich in humanitarian sentiment as his books show. During the presidential campaign of 1918 he called attention to the fact that a lack of clear-headed statesmanship caused a neglect of the most urgent problems. "Mr. Taft and Mr. Bryan," he said, "both claim to favor extending the franchise to women, but it is not a campaign issue. Both profess great friendliness to the Negro, but the Republican party dodges the re-adjustment of representation in the southern states, while Mr. Bryan dare not take advantage of the Negro revolt because that is the chief supporters of his parties are the chief enemies of the Negro." Elsewhere in Ohio, Democracy and the Overman, he quotes with approval the statement, "I do not think the unlimited Anglo-Saxon is an altogether unmitigated blessing." He develops the theme that the Anglo-Saxon is overestimated and that he is merely a worthy beneficiary of opportunity," denied by its possessors to women and workmen, the children of the poor, the average citizen, and the poor. Mr. Zueblin is well acquainted with Chicago, having been for six years Professor of Sociology at the University of Chicago. Demands Dixie Servility, Gets Death Demands Dixie Servility, Gets Death ST. LOUIS, Mo., Nov. 26—An attempt by Henry B. Graham, white, wealthy director of the Graham Paper Co., here, to resort to Southern tastics and knock the hat from Clifford Taylor's head, resulted in Graham's death early this week. Shortly before the shooting Graham had gone into the kitchen of his home where Taylor's wife was employed as cook. Taylor himself was also employed as chauffeur by Graham. Graham then began to rebuke Mrs. Taylor for complaints made by Mrs. Graham. He told her that if Mrs. Graham's complaints were not satisfied she would have to leave. Taylor, who had overheard the conversation, went to their room and began to pack his and his wife's effects preparatory to leaving. According to Mrs. Graham, Taylor walked into the living room a few minutes later with his hat on, and his pipe in his mouth. He said to Graham, "We are going to quit. I won't stand the way my wife is being abused here." Graham looked at him and said: "Remove your hat and tuck that pipe from your mouth." She says she then saw Graham get up and knock Tay loe's hand. A moment later a shot rang out and Graham fell, mortally wounded. Taylor then went to the Clayton County Courty court house and surrendered himself. He reached the court house just at the time policemen were entering Graham's home to arrest him. Upon surrendering he told the sheriff that he had fired the shot in self-defense. He said he saw Graham make a move as if to draw a weapon. He has been held by the coroner's jury on a charge of homicide. U. N. I. A. 'BUSTS,' NOW PACIFIC COAST ASS'N. LOS ANGELES, Nov. 26.—After a stormy and turbulent fight the Universal Negro Improvement Assn, collapsed here last week when former members of the Garvey movement re-organized under the name of the Pacific Coast Negro Improvement Association. Noah D. Thompson was elected president. During the meeting it was urged that the charter for the original organization not be relinquished, as it represented the only claims of those who bought stock in the various enterprises fostered by "Emperor" Garvey. LIFER BACK IN PEN. ST. LOUIS, No. 26.—After three years of freedom, James Stine, an ex-soldier is on his way back to the Federal Penitentiary at Fort Leavenworth.

PLEADS TO POPE FOR SALVATION OF THE WORLD PLEADS TO POPE FOR SALVATION OF THE WORLD NEW YORK CITY, Nov. 26.—Marcus Garvey sent a cable to Pope Benedict last Saturday praying that His Holiness act immediately for the salvation of the world and humanity. Among other things the cable contained the following: HIS HOLINESS, POPE BENEDICT XV., The Vatican, Rome. MOST HOLY FATHER: On behalf of the scattered and most abused children of Africa, numbering four hundred million, I send you greeting. Just at this time when the powerful nations of the world, through their statesmen, are assembled at Washington, through the good services for humanity, of America's most democratic and liberal-minded president, the Negroes of the world desire to draw to your attention the many injustices practised again them. Four hundred millions of us are being continuously outraged in the lands of our domicile; in Africa our motherland, we are being exploited and robbed of our own country. As human beings, we cry universally to Heaven for help and protection. This appeal is made to your Holiness as the greatest religious leader of our time, and as Vicar of Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, on earth. We feel that your Holiness shall consider all humanity, Christian, Moslem, Buddhist, Brahman, and Pagan. Feeling sure that your Holiness will act immediately for the salvation of the world and of humanity I have the honor to be Your Holiness" Obedient servant GUYEN GUFREP President General, Universal Negro Improvement Association, and 1st Provisional President of Africa." RAID IZZY SHORR, SPARE AL TEARNEY Thirty-fifth street was throw. He convulsions Saturday night piled, licenches entered the Entertainers' Cafe, owned and operated by Isadore Shorr, broke up the proceedings, searched all men patrons, and carted away fifty-three people in police patrols. Samuel P. Thrasher, of the Illinois Vigilance Association, who assumes responsibility for the raid, says through interviews with daily papers, that he caused the raid to be made on account of immoral dancing going on in the cabaret. He is also said to have unearthed an old law carrying a penalty of no-year imprisonment for all round fostering or performing in immoral dances. As the merrymakers were being carted away from the Entertainers, revelry was still going at full blast at the Sunset Cafe, and at Al Tearney's "jim-crow" palace, two short blocks away. An hour and a half later at closing time, the vicinity around 35th street and Calumet avenue was jammed with drunken, screaming men and women, mostly white, who had just emerged from Tearney's and the Sunset Cafe. Two blocks up the streets for a half block in both directions as they madly scrambled into taxicabs, demanding to be taken to other points where they could continue their revelry. WOMAN'S SCREAMS STARTS BATTLE ON STREET CAR A crowded south-bound Halsted Street car was thrown into commotion Tuesday when Mrs. Phillip Russo, white, 623 S. Racine Avenue, began screaming that Earl Rucker, 11758 Vincennes Road, was attempting to rob her. Other passenger on the car surrounded Rucker with angry demonstrations. He held them back with an open knife until Policeman Roy Steffens of the Maxwell Street Station, who was on the rear of the car, could get to the scene. Steffens elbowed his way through the crowd and put Rucker under arrest. At the police station Rucker denied that he was attempting to rob the woman, but declared that she became angry and hysterical when the occupants of the crowded car pushed him against her. THE CLUBS By Walter A. Ellis Oh see! The proxy for the Club Family who visited the "Divorce" given by the Hi-Art Musical and Dramatic Club on the 21st instant, is still going about the streets waving his arms and uttering oratorical, rhetorical and melo-dramatical short speeches. After the first five minutes of the drama, he called us and we hastened thither; we found that the first honors went to Mrs. Lillian C. Thompkins in "Dopie Doe," she really acted it. Mrs. Eva C. Trent and Mr. C. W. Powell were close seconds. Whilst Mr. W. Parker (Irish dialect character), equalled Ed. Thompkins in character portrayal. Mr. C. C. Horn spelled class. LeRoy Harden is a name anyway. He minor part by Miss Blossom Hardling proved her historic activity. Mrs Bertha Hensley, chairman, and the public's favorite locutionist, Mrs. E. Carmen Taylor, deserve full credit for the presentation. The repertoire at Bethesda Baptist Church on the 22nd also drew a packed house. Every living member of the Family ought to see them present "The Divorce." Oh, yes, by the way, Prof. John A. Taylor was the proxy. Now, Englewood—really, what have you? HeArt has everything!

Nosey's marching ceased as he watched a man at his duty of cleaning the front show windows of a butcher shop near the corner of Grand boulevard. He dipped his brush in a bucket of bloody water in which chickens had been killed. He sponged the windows with this red liquid while he whistled "Over There." Nosey remonstrated but he could see amis in making the sidewalk stairs as he did care about the odor which filled the air. He told those kind of things in the old country and no doubt in The Ghetto—certainly the southside could not complain. Anyway the black people had bought the chickens which shed the blood for the "Bucket of Blood" meat market. --- ONE IS NEVER to sure these days of his standing at his own home. Nosey was listening to a friend who was calling his own house and asking for himself. He wanted to find out how well the folks at home handled his calls while he was away. He got the number—he was sure it was the number because the masculine voice said that it was the number. He asked for himself. The gentleman told the caller that there was no such party as that living there. The inquiring gentleman almost fell off his chair. Then he yelled that there must be some matter that he knew. A person living there because he was the gentleman himself. The man on the other end of the line said, "Well, you might have used to live here, but it's all over now," and hung up the receiver. The inquiring gentleman did not try the phone any longer but rushed out for a taxi. Nosey will get the whole story from the police records in a few days. SATURDAY NIGHT Nosey took his stand in front of one of the Southside's famous cabarets to watch those who came and went. Pretty soon there was a commotion on the inside and Nosey poked his long nose in to see what it was all about and soon saw that a "raid" was in progress. Nosey discreetly retired to the outside. He saw couple after couple, group after group come up look in, sense the situation and move off, ordering taxis to take them to destinations on the north and west sides where things seemed a little more cheerful. Nosey waited until the last load moved off in charge of stalwart officers and noticed that late comers who expected "one last round of dance" skidded quickly when some bystander broke the news to them. Funny how they shy when they hear the danger signal. Reminds one of London during the air raids, or a black person in the proscribed area of Hyde Park. EVERY PERSON who wears a certain little rosette in his button hole has a right to enter a certain massive residence on "Strivers' Row" and failure to appear with this insignia means that you will have trouble gaining admission. Nosey was idly watching the snow fall the other night—when a gentleman tried to tell the man who answered the door bell that he lived there. The man on the door said, "Do you love flowers?" The new roomer said, "Heavens, No!" "Then you can't come in," said the doorman as the closed the door. The man left in the snow swore and started down the steps. He stopped and picked up a crush. Then he returned to the door with the flower in his hand and rang the bell. The same doorman answered and asked the same question. The man said that he liked flowers and the doorman let him in. Nosey now keeps a flower in his pocket all of the time and hopes that the pass word does not change. The House of Flowers must be interesting. YELLOW WAS THE color scheme of her costume. Yellow from head to toe. It all blended with her face and eyes. The money she carried was also yellow as it could be seen through filmsy silk of her open work hose. The men looked and turned and some followed in her wake. She entered a Yellow Cab and was driven up to a house that was painted yellow. A yellow cat was in the front window and yellow draperies and furniture filled the house. There was a yellow automobile standing in front of the house. Everything seemed to be yellow. The Nosey was surprized to see three gentlemen come up to the house in a black car, their dressed in black and their clothes matched the color of their hair, eyes and skin. Then four more gentlemen appeared. They looked and were dressed like the other three. Then a black cat appeared in the rear window. Nosey's eye was pleased because black and yellow make a good combination. If You See It In The Whip, It Is True. Prof. Thos. A. Stewart lectures on "The New Birth and What Produced it". The subject of a lecture to be given Wednesday night, Nov. 30., at 8 o'clock at St. Catherine A M E ion Church, 37th and Langley Ave. Prof. Thos. A. Stewart will be presented by Rev. W. M.

Downs, Misses Willa O. Mitchell and Richie Kyle, Dr. William Stollman, Dox Thresh, Melwood and Stiggers, torted to Joliet, Ill. Sunday and was the dinner guests of Mrs. Kate Mason of Joliet, formerly of Chicago. After a very pleasant stay of ten days with relatives in Mississippi and Tennessee, Dr. Chas, J. Davis has returned to the city much pleased with his trip. While away Dr. Davis was a member of two hunting parties and sent much of his choice game to the city. Mrs. Burton Has Guest. Mrs. Annie Oliver, formerly Miss Annie Payne of Birmingham, Ala., is the guest of Mrs. Wilma Buston, 6446 Vernon Avenue. Mushrooms may be found in pattures and woods until the frost kills them. Many varieties may be dried and used for flavoring sances and cups during the winter. An abundance is found, prepare a few bottles of mushroom cestup; these will make most acceptable gifts to the friend who enjoys the flavor. Put the mushrooms in a jar or bowl, sprinkle with salt, let stand for two days, squeeze out the salt, add spices and vinegar and cook until the mushrooms make a thick, well-seasoned cestup. Bottle and seal. This will keep for years. A two or three-pound coffee can makes a fine receptacle for holding lettuce, parsley or other greens. Even wilted lettuce may be revived by washing and placing in a covered can in the ice chest. Parsley kept in a glass jar will keep for two weeks. Take out, wash and return to the far once or twice. Any small fruit keeps better if spread out on a platter or plate; if heaped in a dish the berries are crushed and soon spoil. In cooking any of the succulent green vegetables, salt should not be added until they are ready to be seasoned. Peas, if lacking sweetness, may be supplied with a teaspoonful of sugar to remedy this lack, much improving the flavor. Mexican Scrambled Eggs—Put a dozen green peppers into the oven to roast until the skins may be easily removed; peel and chop removing the seeds and veins, then boil until tender in a very little boiling water. Season well with butter. A tablespoonful of butter makes a butter ball or pat of good size. Popovers may be used as shells for fruit or creams, and are much more digestible than rich pastry.

DAVE PEYTON Composer, Musician, Critic THE GRAND "OVER THE HILLS" packs them. The famous Dunbar Players presented on Monday night the famous dramatic play entitled "Over The Hill" to a large house. Elizabeth Williams triumphed in the role of Mother and drew tears from the eyes of many who witnessed the dramatic version of this great play. Andrew Bishop and Lawrence Criner as the sons were excellent in character and Charles More as the country Loan Shark was excellent in portrayal. Isabelle Jackson and Arthur Ray furnished the comedy moments and kept the audience in spells of hilarity. Mr. Allen as Sheriff was good, as was Lionel Monagas. In fact, the entire cast was perfect on their Monday night opening. The Show was staged by Frank Armstrong, Director or renown. The story, a very pathetic one deals with everyday life where two sons love their mother. One becomes a black sheep and sacrifices the old homestead to a loan shark and the other becomes accused of a crime which he did not commit and is forced to abandon the home. The mortgage falls due on the home and the mother is put out into the street. The accused strikes gold in the West and returns home in time to redeem the mortgage. This is surely a wonderful theme and will be appreciated by all who see and hear it. Miss Susie Sutton as the dissatisfied wife has no equal today when it comes to character work. She was more than perfect in her role. Miss Cleo Desmond as usual was fine and good to look at. Next week these famous players will present George Arliss' great day "The Devil". the very fine bill is presented at house this week. Jimmie Cox is a pilot on the bill, featuring little Ernestine. Karen and Henderson, Zeek and Glasson, Leston and Cox make up a very good bill.

THE CHICAGO WHIP MUSIC By Mildred Bryant-Jones MUSICAL TESTS—PART II Hearing good music is the best surest and quickest way to develop correct musical taste—not merely hearing it now and then—but hearing it often and in abundance. How may this be done since the admission price to many artists' concerts makes attendance at them impossible for many? Through the medium of the victrola, grafonola, etc. the world's greatest artists may be heard with very little expense. Wonderful records made by the world's best musicians in solo and in groups, by singers and players, choruses, orchestras and bands may be bought at a nominal cost and may be used many times to give pleasure and benefit to hundreds of people. In many of the large music stores, at stated times, concerts with the use of the above mentioned machines, are given at which the public is welcomed and no fee charged. For a very small sum one may attend the splendid concerts given by the Symphony Orchestra, at which a talented soloist of some instrument is always presented. Even grand opera is put within the reach of those whose finances are very limited and the popular priced Saturday evening performances prove a boon to thousands. In cities where such opportunities are offered, there is little or no excuse for lack of proper development of the musical taste. On December 5th and 6th at the Aryan Grotto Temple, Floto's opera, "Martha," will be given by the South Side Opera Company. Mr. James Allen Mundy, pioneer in this line of musical endeavor in this part of the country, has labored hard to have the opera properly presented and his efforts have received a warm response from the singers under his care. It is believed that the opera will be an artistic success and open to the minds of the public our possibilities in this direction. On Thursday evening, November 24th, at 8 o'clock, The Metropolitan Community Center Choff, under the direction of Mr. J. Wesley Jones, will give a concert in Harvey, Illinois, under the aupices of - The Second Baptist Church. The church has secured the use of the Harvey High School building in which to give the concert. Elmora James will be soprano soloist and Miss Magnolia Lewis, reader. Among other numbers the choir will sing Rossin's "Inflammatous" and Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus." Henry Ethridge, tenor, of Chicago, will appear in recital in Bowling Green, Kentucky, on November 24th, under the aupices of The Progressive Choral Society of that city. Miss R.

WILLIAMSON UNDERTAKE GARAGE All Eyes Are On Football Classic for Thanksgiving Day. WASHINGTON, D. C. Nov. 23.—Much interest is being manifested in the coming "Football Classic of the Year" to be played in the American League Park, Philadelphia, Pa., on Thanksgiving day between the Howard and Lincoln University elevens, by the followers of these two universities throughout the country. A bit of information regarding Howard's 1921 team as seen from the side lines both in play and at training will be of interest at this time Howard has one of the best coached and most heady football squads in the country. From my knowledge of football, and in the opinion of those more familiar with the game and the work of the teams of the present season, there are several facts in support of this statement. First, the real credit for the splendid showing being made by the team is due to the tireless work of Dr. W. E. Morrison, the Coach. Coach Morrison is a driver with a magnetic personality and an uncanny ability to see each of the eleven men in action no matter what the play, and with the added ability to immediately correct whatever error may have been made by any one of the players. As a company of soldiers reflect their commander, a classroom of students their teacher, so his football squad reflects his aggressive personality. No player can escape this contagious spirit, and as a result Howard players are full of fire and dash every minute of play. I have watched with pleasure the clean and sportsmanlike conduct of the players on and off the field. Howard players have won the good will of football enthusiasts everywhere where they have played by their close application to the fundamental principles of clean football. No player is allowed to remain on the squad that resorts to unsportsmanlike tactics. Their motto is "Clean and efficient football." Howard's Coach is a product of the Everett High School and Tuff's College (Mass.) teams. Coach Morrison came to Howard last year, thrue the efforts of Major M. T. Dean, the director of Physical Education, to build at Howard a real football machine worthy of a University like Howard. Coach Morrison began constructing on October 1, 1921, the football machine created in his own mind as a result of his knowledge of the game and his wide experience and association with such men as Brinkley, Cavanaugh, and Connelly. He is a deep student of football and works out his plays most minutely. Having the fullest confidence in his ability and recognizing his fitness and technique, the players have imbued his spirit and absorbed his system of play and have acquired in his training methods a fire and dash and endurance seldom equalled. The result is a machine in perfect gear, well oiled, seasoned, with brilliant minds, aggressive, and with such teamwork as has never represented the "Blue and White," in its gridiron history. With Lawrence, Downing, Brannon, and Hurt added to the majority of the 1921 team. Howard went through the 1920 season without a defeat and with only three points against Howard's 187 credited to their opponents. With new men taking the place of these stars of last year's squad, the 1921 squad has in the six games played this season registered 139 points and has not allowed an opponent to cross her goal line or score a single point against her. Coach Morrison believes in work and more work, and it is believed he gives his team more training than is received by the team of any other school. He has built up a brilliant offensive team and an aggressive defensive one. It is to be regretted that "Bull Dog" Williams, the star left end, is languishing in the hospital with a fractured right leg and that Molson, one of Howard plucky backs, has suffered an injury, both accidents due to the West Virginia Collegiate Institute game at Charleston, W. Va., yet Coach Morrison with his usual foresight and strategical ability is prepared to fill with strong reconstructions any breach made in his line by physical accidents. On the eve of this Annual Classic Coach Morrison modestly says when questioned as to his team's prospects for winning: "I shall send in my usual team, with the usual instructions. We are but men being pitted against men. Mr. Sulburne's personal playing has been a source of pride to me. I have yet to see demonstrated his ability as a coach. I have the highest respect for Mr. Sulburne. We have confidence in ourselves, but it is not that kind which wrecks teams. My team will acquit itself not only as befs representatives of so great an institution as Howard University, but will satisfy its most skeptical admirers and followers. Howard will be heard from on Thanksgiving day." SWASTIKA BASKETBALL CHAMPS PREPARE TO OPEN SEASON. CLEVELAND, O., Nov. 21.—Steadily the new coaching system which the Swastika Basketball Champs are undergoing, is adding to the efficiency of the team, and when they open their season a couple of weeks hence, they will be stepping along at a lively gait. Hampton, the youthful recruit, is rapidly learning to fill the position vacated by Minor, last year's star center. With his showing the team will be working like well oiled machinery by the time they have played a couple of games. A few dates are still vacant on the Swastika Schedule, and these can be filled by communicating with R. W. Tallafero, 8005, Central Ave., Suite 2, Cleveland, Ohio, immediately.

His huge form which has hurled itself into every play to the consternation of his opponents will long be remembered in the annals of western football. Football critics who have watched his brilliant play for the past three years accord him highest honors as a star of the fast water. Iowa loses a mighty power with his departure, but Slater has made for himself a niche in football history that will last. This terrible man of might and brawn has established himself the enviable record of being a gentleman even in the fiercest gridiron conflicts and this record stands over and above that of his athletic prowess, which prowess every team in the Conference knows, acknowledges and fears. Slater's athletic accomplishments at Iowa have been more than a credit—they were a service to those who might come after. WILLS KNOCKS DOWN MARTIN SIX TIMES Harry Wills of New York, knocked out Denver Ed Martin in one round at Portland, Oregon. A right-hand punch by Wills, which landed back of Martin's ear, humbled the ring veteran. Martin, who is 45 years old, and was a star performer twenty years ago, was knocked down six times. THE CHICAGO WHIP LD OF Tells Of Slater's Magnanimity In one of Iowa's less important football games this season "Duke" Slater, the powerful Negro tackle, was opposed by a player of less experience and skill whom he outclassed. Slater was affable and friendly and even gave his opponent verbal instructions on tackle play during the progress of the contest. In speaking of his experience afterward Slater's opponent said: "He was a real fellow. He gave me a lot of pointers about playing my position, how to block an opponent, and even how to stop him, which I had not been able to do up to that time. In thinking it over afterward, however, I realized that the times I had succeeded in blocking Slater were when the play was on the other side of the line. At that, I learned more football playing one game against him than in all the other games I have played."—Chicago Tribune.

A. Lanier) MONTGOMERY, Ala., Nov. 12. The spectacular playing of Tallodega's big full-back, Edwards, was the feature of the game at Montgomery yesterday when Tallodega won over State Normal, 21-0. Coach Bragg took this opportunity to try out some of his strong men, resting up most of the Varsity players who played such a wonderful game in Birmingham last week when Tallodede defeated her old rival, Tuskogee, 39-7, in the biggest football event of the season in the south. Edwards got away for two 60-yard dashes around the end, one of them scoring a touchdown, and also punteed 65 yards. The two other touchdowns were made by Knox, tackle and Webber, half-back, both of whom have been playing up to date football all season. The blocking of the team was perfect.

THOMAS CLARK Neatly Furnished Rooms WHAT THE JEFFRIES-JOHNSON FIGHT PICTURES REVEAL On a warm summer, day over ten years ago Jack Johnson drew his glove on to take the measure of the great Jim Jeffries. The fight is now a matter of history and newspaper lore, yet you may see that fight, for at last the movies have been released you can see the picture and grip your seat as you see Jack quell the hopes of the white race. But you will be disappointed for no great slugging match is in store for you. The pictures reveal the master defensive ability of Johnson and show how he wore his opponent down and then sent him to the land of nod. Blood Poison It was in the sweltering sun of Nevada and the great crowds mopped their sweaty faces and fanned themselves as the giant entered the ring. Johnson, sleek and black, pranced around the ring like a gazelle and extended his long left hand which feinted in the air bewildering Jeff. Suddenly that hand shot out like a thrust of a rattle snake and the fight is on. Jeffries crept up slowly and attempted to crouch in the famous Jeffries crouch, but Jack hugged him and the crouch was ruined. That tells the whole story for fifteen rounds. Jack would extend that left and invite Jeff into clinch. From the screen it seems that the whole fight was a clinch. But Jack's forte is body jolts and jabs while he holds his opponent helpless in his powerful clinch. This is the feature of Jack, his great clinching ability and the power to jab and jolt while in that position.

Many who are "whited sepulchres" filled with human bones are also filled with the passion for Thanksgiving. Many mur- derers raise their blood dyed hands to the throne of the Almighty, many brother haters and human oppressors, many, whose un-Christian rampages have left humanity trembling also go thru the sepulchre prayer when they still are in conspiracy with the cohort. Three men of black skin were burned last week and the burning of one seemed to be a celebration of the Armistice signing. We wonder if any of these unhallowed fiends offered up thanks for their unmitigated opportunities to lynch, burn and murder without the punishment of man. We wonder if the South is thankful for Lynch Law, the Jim Crow institutions and the hunted and horrow-stricken black people whom they have terrified and abused. We wonder if the South is thankful for the full moon, the full stomach and full harvest which has been gleaned by black hands and ripened by the craft of black man. We wonder if the South is Thankful for the Ku Klux Klan and its reign of terror? We wonder? We query if the North is Thankful for the spread of race prejudice and the friction between men? We wonder if the North is thankful for the unemployed, starved and hungry citizens who gave their all that they might live in peace and happiness? We query? Both the South and the North should be thankful for the faithful few who have obeyed the laws of God and Man. Both should be thankful for the good that has been interspersed amidst the wickedness and crime. America has many things to thank God Almighty for and well does she pay homage for this bountiful mercy and forbearance. The black man in America is also seen faithful and suppilient and well does he heed the sacred signals of the somber, church bell upon Thanksgiving Day. While "arrows of outrageous fortunes" fly thick and fast from all directions, while the heart of humanity seems cold and irrespective and while his fellows seem listless and apathetic, still he fittingly and contritely thank God for his benefice. He may thank the All-Wise Father for the new spirit which has seized the Christian Church, for the church is courageously antagonizing the vices and evils which corrupt, contaminate and defile the black people. He may thank God for his growing intelligence and his awakening racial consciousness. He may thank God for those great and good men of white skins who stand for justice, equality and freedom for all men. He may thank God for the mercy and loving kindness which feeds his wretched and ill-fated brother, who is stricken by the cold hand of poverty. The black man may lift up eyes to the Eternal Father and pray for a life on earth which will make him fit for reward beyond the vale. Thanksgiving Day means much to us and may it also temper the wild spirit of our un-Christian brothers who have erred and wronged their fellow man.

We see churches establishing medical clinics, night schools, employment bureaus, gymnasiums, nurseries and kindergartens. Such work is compelled to be helpful. Communities are stimulated to clean living and right thinking and ambition is born in derelict children which under the old order of things was impossible. The churches are interesting themselves in all of the things which interest the people in general, thus they act as magnets to young people and those who are striving for places in the sun. If as the church begins to gather this new impetus and momentum should make its pillars firm and secure its influence will carry further and faith can be made stronger. The pillars of the church are the officers, the deacons, trustees, etc. These men should be above the criticism and ridicule of the evildoers and wayward whom they should reach. If they themselves are rascals, degenerates and embeciles little can be accomplished and the church will defeat its own purposes. We regret that some of the most prominent mainstays of the church are "pillars of salt." This is especially true in Chicago. Scarlet tales are afloat concerning the actions of certain pillars and it is hoped that no church will be embarrassed because of their iniquity. Let the church either strengthen the pillars or supplant them with new ones before evil work is done. The scarlet tales are traveling upon the wings of Mercury. The church will do well to get in condition. ORIAL IAL HEALTH HINTS Troy Smith ITS PREVENTION rupt changes in the temperature and being pneumonia weather I am of the assified as a Negro's disease, however that the morbidity By Dr. Troy Smith This pneumonia weather, abrupt changes in the temperature and humidity make it so. Aside from being pneumonia weather I am of the opinion that pneumonia can be classified as a Negro's disease, however This pneumonia weather, abrupt changes in the humidity make it so. Aside from being pneumonia w opinion that pneumonia can be classified as a Negro statistics will bear me out in saying that the morbidity and mortality are higher in the Negro race. It is not established whether this mortality is due to a distinct racial character, to the lack of an inherited or acquired immunity to infection, or to poor hygienic conditions in which the Negro lives. Poor hygienic living conditions with overcrowding and flth in the homes are factors in the development of pneumonia, which tends to increase the resistance of the individual, such as exposure to cold and sudden changes in the climate, or inhalation of various irritating vapors, gases and the aspiration of different fluids will predispose an individual to pneumonia. Overexertion and worry may favor the development of pneumonia especially when so prolonged or marked as to cause a general reduction of bodily nutrition.

TROY SMITH pneumonia has been dual case has been treated as a source the spread of pneumonia are patients harbor the organisms in the secretion improperly treated bronchitis may at any time develop DR. TROY SMITH into pneumonia. The high mortality rate of pneumonia has been The high mortality rate of pneumonia has been greatly reduced since each individual case has been treated as a source of infection. The chief sources for the spread of pneumonia are patients with pneumonia, convalesces who harbor the organisms in the secretion of their mouths, persons who have acquired the organisms by intimate contact with patients, and dust from the immediate surroundings of patients or carriers of the pneumonia germ. The Board of Health, of the city of Chicago, has done well to place pneumonia as a disease, and they make it compulsory that the attending physician in charge of a case of pneumonia report the disease to the Department of Health. The patient is then isolated and the general measures for the control of contagious diseases are instituted. The respiratory secretions or the sputum, being the oldest source of contagion, should be collected in paper napkins and burned. Before removal from the room, handkerchiefs, bed linen, clothing, utensils, etc. should be sterilized by boiling or by the use of disinfectants. Do not kiss, eat after or drink after a pneumonia patient, not even while he is convalescing; wait until the patient is well. Since it has been shown that the environs of the patients are contaminated, daily cleaning of the room should be carried out in such a way to avoid scattering the dust, and after convalescence the room should be thoroughly cleaned and aired. Hot soda water is an admirable cleanser and sunlight and fresh air are more valuable than fumigation. A trained nurse or one experienced in handling a pneumonia case should be in charge of each individual case. LEGAL HINTS We shall be pleased to answer any questions which may be sent to the Whip Office, 3420 State St., addressed to the Editor of the Legal Department. Mr. G. C. Adams—Kindly explain the following for me. My sister's husband was named as trustee in our aunt's will, but was given no interest therein except the prospect of receiving the compensation which is due to her. Will the validity of the will be impaired by him acting as a witness—The opportunity afforded to exchange actual service for a compensation would not be regarded as such a beneficial interest so as to disqualify the husband of your sister as a witness and so impair the validity of the will. In order to disqualify, something in the way of a gratuity must pass by the will to the devisee or legatee who acts as witness. Attorney Adams—If a partnership agreement is made in writing will it be necessary for the dissolution of the partnership? Answer—No. The dissolution may be proved by parol. There is no requirement of law for any particular form or writing to make a dissolution effective. All that is needed is that proof be forthcoming of an intention put into execution. My Dear Editor—I sold some furniture to A, who agreed to give his note for the price payable in one year with interest. A now refuses to give his note. What remedy have I? Answer—You may rescind the sale for fraud and recover the goods in an action at law or for their conversion in trove. You may also sue immediately for breach of the special agreement to give the note; but you cannot, until the expiration of the time of credit, maintain an action for the goods and recover the money. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures. In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Eoils. In Louisville a group of black men organized their own political party, put a complete ticket in the field and then were attacked by members of their own race for so doing. The candidate for mayor, Dr. A. F. Forter, was mobbed by black people and his office demolished. The office of the Louisville News, the paper which sponsored the party, was also wrecked and the life of its Editor, Wm. Warley, was threatened. This caps the climax and shows what a terrible battle the black man must wage with himself before he can advance. The American Baptist, a religious paper, published by black people, vigorously fought the move to elect black men to office. Even ministers of the gospel joined in the fight to humiliate and ridicule their brothers as they sought to gain recognition and defeat the "lilly-white." Such actions should invoke the ire of the whole race and should not be tolerated by a race which is fighting against the odds that we are. Even the K. K. K. is shamed. While Tom Watson of Georgia is raising such a hullabaloo in the senate because of the treatment which the white soldiers received in the late war, it may be well to present the gruesome stories of the black man's treatment. It said that black men were shot down like dogs by the military police and that the uniform of the U. S. A. instead of giving protection served as a red flag to inflame the prejudiced Americans whose souls are rankled in hate and infamy. It is said that one of the deacons in a prominent church in Chicago has so many skeletons rattling in his closet that an inspection would spell his ruin. The tales told about this hypocrite read like a paper back novel and if put upon the screen would not pass the censorship of fast and loose Cuba. Such men as he defeats the purposes of the Church and corrupt those who need a helping hand. If you know such a deacon tell your pastor his name and save the Whip the inconvenience. Soon many black people will be heard saying that Mayor Thompson has given us five cent fares in Chicago. No amount of argument will convince them to the contrary, even tho it is notoriously known that five cent fares were coming back even if Mayor Thompson had been in Siberia. After a great while the black people will notice that their idol has feet of clay. A. E. H. Y.W.C.A.News "Come and See" Week—Nov. 28 to Dec. 4. The Indiana avenue branch of the Young Women's Christian Association invites you to come and see what they are doing during the week of "Come and See." The entire city of Chicago is all astir through the various clubs and activities of the different branches trying to make ready for the host of friends, coming next week to share with them, their hearty support of the program of the World's Women's greatest movement. The "Come and See" Week will establish a closer tie between the entire human family of Chicago, because it is going to reveal to its visitors the true spirit of the extension of the Kingdom of God here on earth. The Young Women's Christian Association has accepted the challenge as a potent factor in establishing Christ's Kingdom here on earth. The interpretation of this challenge certainly comes as bringing about an ideal spirit of fellowship among the entire human family. The understanding of the human family shall be the means of effacing from historic records any misapprehensions on the part of any member of the human family trying to live up to the best in him. Thus, acquiescing to the fullest capacity of man's instinctive desire of emulation as handed down through the evolution of time. Come and join this social force and help establish a better relationship and thereby become a friend to its cause, because it does promote justice and righteousness to all alike. Just an hour during the "Come and See" Week will mean much to you through the program of the Young Women's Christian Association.

Dear Sir: Permit me to thank you for your countywide and local interest in the week's issue of your paper, in which you plead the cause of the col- ored lawyer, and ask that he be given a greater share of the race's business, where he can serve the courts and forest can best serve the interest of our people, of which is bunk and but expresses his opinion of the law, which the white man has created in the minds of our people in the south and which clings to them even in their new home. Lawyers are not made in law schools. Only the fundamental principles of law acquired by the law profession and efficiency lawyers depend upon portunity for development, which can only come through confidence and the handling of legal business in the The race will never have prominent and all-time leaders. The lawyers all their business to white lawyers. Nearly every Negro business and church has its legal business looked after by the lawyers. They are supported and maintained by the race's money. When our people are in trouble, the lawyer and show him a deep point wherein he should give them service upon a promise to pay, when they get it. The lawyer and show them they taxi to the biggest white lawyer in town and pay many times more than the service is worth.

Stribling, drawings by F. Louis Mora. Appearing as a serial in the Century Magazine beginning with the October number. For sale or can be ordered at newstands. Price per copy, fifty cents). I am leaving my line of books, to note, before the novel progresses too far, the serial "Birthright," which is appearing in the Century magazine. Every colored reader ought to get this serial for it represents a turning point in Negro literature in America. T. S. Stribling, as the biographical note in the magazine tells us, is a young southern man, born in a small village on the Tennessee river, who has studied law, turned from that to literature, and has known many privations in his wanderings over four continents. His story is laid in a little town like that of his birth, but as one reads one finds the detached view of the traveller who has known many places and can turn back to his own home divorced of prejudice. The hero of "Birthright" is a young Negro, Peter Steiner, born in "Hooker's Bend" who on graduating from Harvard returns to the shabby little town where he spent his boyhood bent upon doing constructive work. On his way home he meets Tump Pack, whom he grew up with, a rough, uneducated youth who yet wears the congressional military medal upon his coat. The two land from the boat at Hooker's Bend where the colored people come in and get to know men to marry him on Tump Pack. But Tump has walked only a little way up the street when the constable steps up, arrests him on a three-year-old charge of crap shooting and puts him in handeffects to the immense mirth of the white beholders. They explode with delight over it. "Just as Tump was a coming down the street at the head of the coons, out steps Bobbs"—here the little man who tells the story is overcome with laughter. Peter finds the reception the whites give him equally cheering. He gets a deed for a piece of land for his school only to learn that it has what is colloquially known as a "nigger stopper" and that he has been cheated out of his money. And against this we have the picture of the white constable going through every home of the colored quarter because Miss Lou Arkwright has lost her turkey roaster. "I declare," satirizes old Chas. A. Clark, preached an old fashioned sermon which stirred the house as never before since his advent to the city. Previous to this meeting, although a number of spiritual sermons had been delivered by him, it was the conditions which obtained that caused the pastor to place particular streets upon sermons dealing with modern economic and similar interests. The success in entering his new edifice and consequently the accruing larger membership, has relieved him to an extent that he fell back into the old habit of "turning on the whole gospel pure and untainted." The result was a greater spiritual demonstration than ever before witnessed in Ebernezer. Crowds are even filling the entrances each Sunday. The great choral organization is an added feature which has served to draw a religious and discriminating public. Especial notes of Ebernezer here each week. Come out. METROPOLITAN COMMUNITY CHURCH. The Metropolitan Community Center or Popeleas Church under the Pastor, "Modern Moses," is still progressing wonderfully upon its journey. Sunday morning the new museum delivered aroused hope in the vast following. The many activities which are now under way speak well for the constructive plan of community work which is being pushed forward. The $20,000 drive being successfully finished, the new home in the Masonic Temple having been secured, the new organizations for social uplift and the concerts and tours being arranged by the great Community Center Choir under Prof. J. Wesley Jones are being noted by the public as definite signs of steady progress. The wonderful "remarks" made by Dr. W. D. Cook before the business men's gathering Sunday evening and the Sunday evening Club, were easily classified as a prophetic sermonette. Chicago has called Dr. Cook the "Modern Moses." The concert on the 12th prox and the Monthly musical are big future features. NEW TRINITY M. E. CHURCH. This church is the real home church of Chicago, the warmest fellowship here, not church of the classes, but the masses. Dr. G, W. Baber makes all welcome. Last Sunday morning Dr. O'Niel of New Orleans spoke. Sunday evening Dr. McKee of Monroe, La, spoke, both men stired Trinity's congregation. Sunday morning Rev. Dr. Walker, New York's reformed gambling house proprietor, will speak at 11 a.m. Evening special services at 8 p.m. Trinity is well heated, splendid choir and congregational singing. Location, one block from Indiana Avenue and 31st Street car lines. We welcome you. Caroline (Peter's mother) "dis heah Niggah Town is a white man's pocket. Evuh time he misplace somp'n he feel in his pocket to see if it aint thaiuh." And she continues to scold as the constable continues to search unavailingly. Petty thievery, ignorance, shabbiness, all this one sees in Hooker's Bend, but the author makes us feel the desire of the Negroes, through Peter, to get away from their ignorance and low estate and the intention of the whites to keep them, by every and any means, where they are. There is a vivid description of jim claw travelling on poor trains, stopping in an obscure place over night. "This unremitting insistence upon color, this continual shunting him into obscure and flithy ways, gradually gave Peter a loathy feeling. The impression grew upon him that he was being handled with tongs, along back alley-routes; that he and his race were something to be kept out of sight as much as possible, as careful house-keepers manoeuvre their slops." But the text is only half the story. The illustrations by Mora, one of our great mural painters, again mark a new departure in the Negro magazine story. Here are no caricatures but works of art showing the colored man at his best. There are four full page illustrations in the two numbers, any of them worthy of being kept and framed. When one thinks of the rotten pictures in our cheap magazines, one is reconciled to the price one has to pay for the Century. Fifty cents is a good deal for a single copy of a magazine. But I for my part, would rather follow Peter Steiner this year through his struggles to educate the children at Hooker's Bend, through lds love story with Cissie Dilddine, than to watch Douglass Fairbanks or any other movie here flash through a myriad film. The movie hero always does exactly what he is expected to do. He has nothing fresh or new to show us. If he meets a Negro it will be a threadbare, utterly unconventional type that does not exist now and probably never existed. But Stribling is travelling through fresh fields, he is showing us the actual life of colored and white in a small southern town. And his interest is so compelling that if we once start out with him we shall find that we are compelled to follow him eagerly to the end. ```markdown ```
