Arrest Roscoe Simmons In Church Pulpit SUES SAUNDERS FOR DIVORCE PRICE 5 CENTS SUES TIE PREACHER ACROSS LOG, BEAT HIM Georgia Governor Is Making Personal Probe Of Outrage ATLANTA, Ga., March 11.—A mob of twelve to fourteen masked white men seized the Rev. B. N. Henningsham, a Methodist minister, took him to the woods near the town of Winder, Bartow County, and flogged him unmercifully, after stripping his clothes from his body last week. Rev. Henningsham, who is a British subject, came to this country from Kingston, Jamaica. A delegation of ministers headed by the Rev. R. H. Singleton, of Big Bethel A. M. E. Church, went before the governor of the state and demanded an investigation. Preacher Tells Story The mob victim's story of the affair is as follows: "They came to a colored man's home by the name of Oscar Bergainy, where I, Rev. Heningham, was giving him elementary training, about 8 o'clock p. m., March 6, 1922. Seized me without a moment's warning dragged me from the house. Bar headed and placed me in an automobile and drove about ten miles toward Gainesville, Ga. While on the way I asked them what I had done to be punished and they answered by holding pistols on me and shapping me in the face: 'We will tell you what you have done; your damned Catholic bishop came here preaching Catholicism and got away before we could get him. Then he sent you here with your Catholic doctrine, educating these damned Negroes and making them worse. When we get through with you, your bishop nor no one else will come here preaching that damned Catholic stuff." When they reached about the ten-mile point, they took me out of the automobile and carried me into the woods and stripped me of my pants and placed me over a log and heat me with something like a leather strap until one of them said that was enough. Then they made me get up and told me to run and not look back or they would shoot me dead. "They told me never to be seen at Winder anymore, if so, they would kill me." "I was compelled to walk eight miles back to the home of one of my members through a heavy rainstorm, bareheaded. They robbed me of the money I had, which was 89.7% and took my clergy book my tergament and other articles. "On March 7, 1922, I went to some of my members and they raised money to help me get out of Winder. "I am a Methodist and know but very little about any other doctrine, and have had no cause to preach Catholicism to my people. No one, white or colored, in Winder can testify that I have ever gone a thing of the kind since I have been pastoring there. I feel that it is the greatest outrage ever perpetrated on my life. "I am from the British West Indies, Island of Kingston, Jamaica. (Signed) "B. N. Henningham." Henningham told the governor he went from Rome to Winder in November, preaching his first sermon the first Sunday in December. He knows nothing about the Catholic church, he said and had never been in one more than twice in his life. He has never all any trouble before, and the "elementary training," referred to the elephant giving the barber, Oscar Berny, was spelling, arithmetic, grammar and like studies, merely in an effort to help him improve himself. The men who attacked him, he said, were not dressed in gowns, but all were overalls of the same kind, and each wore a mask over his face, some if the masks were white and others blue. He readily recognized they were white men from the flesh he could see through the holes around the eyes, and from the hands of the men, which were uncovered. It would be impossible he said, for him to identify any of them, because of the fact that they were so completely and successfully ignised. Direction has been given by Governor Hardwick that the matter must "A PAPER WITH A POLICY" The Chicago Whip AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY Man Survives 11 Shocks In Death Chair LITTLE ROCK, Ark, March 18. James Wells, 18 years old, died early Friday morning in the electric chair at the State pentitentary after eleven unsuccessful attempts had been made by an inexperienced electrician to electrocute him. The twelfth attempt, according to witnesses, was successful. Going to the chair singing and without assistance, he continued to sing until the first charge of electricity was sent through his body. After the electricity had been allowed to remain on a few moments, it was taken off and Wells was examined by the state physician who pronounced him still alive. Another charge of electricity was sent through his body, but with the same results. Witnesses began to leave the death room and convicts who assisted in strapping Wells in the chair also left. Only a few witnesses were present when the last charges of electricity were sent through his body and Wells was finally pronounced dead by the state physician. Fully 20 minutes were consumed in putting the boy to death. Wells was convicted of killing Peter Trent, a German farmer, near Monticello. Wells was one of the convicts who escaped with Tom Slaughter. 2000 Pay Tribute To Col. Young Sunday afternoon at Wendell Phillip's High School, fully two thousand people attended the memorial service held for Col. Charles Young, whose remains will soon be returned to this country from Liberia. Fifty statesmen, officers of the army (active and retired) and ministers from the large churches were assembled upon the rostrum with Morris Lewis (chairman committee) and W. D. Cook, director of the Center, to witness the address by Col. Climlin, U. S. district attorney, as principal speaker. Other addresses were made by the alderman, Louis B. Anderson, Col. Otis B. Duncan and the commander of the Spanish War Veterans. Two hundred "Vets" of Spanish War, in uniform were present to render a farewell complimentary salute. The band of the old Eighth Regiment furnished the music. The Umbrian Glee Club sang a great number, whilst the solo by Miss Roberta D. Crawford was a big feature. Other addresses and special numbers. A fund is to be raised to erect a monument to the first of his race to reach the distinction of colonel in the United States Regular Army. Kidnap Boy To Get Oil Lease PONCA CITY, Okla., March 9. Authorities are investigating the mystery surrounding an automobile they found on which the motor numbers had been changed and which contained several men, three of whom were white, holding Nathan Williams in captivity at the point of guns. Williams maintains that he is being kept away from home until he is over 21 years of age, in order that an oil man may get a lease on his allotment in Creek County. His captors are said to have been paid $100 each to kidnap him and take him into the country until he is old enough to sign the lease. Williams' properties are said to be very valuable and there is a mad scramble among oil speculators to get the boy to sign the lease as soon as he becomes of age. Mays Still Hopes For Commutation KNOXVILLE, Tenn., March 14. Hope is still being held out that Gov. Taylor will commute to life imprisonment the death sentence of Maurice Mays, who is sentenced to be executed March 15. Persons interested in the case are compiling evidence to present to the governor that some other person than Mays committed the crime. be just as completely probed as is possible, and every means at command must be used to identify the men in the attacking party. ORATOR IS NABBED ON PLATFORM Deputies Listen To Flow Of Oratory Then Make Arrest CONVICTION OF CRIPPLE SHAMES DIXIE Whole State Rallies To Save Gripple Who Slew Man To Satisfy Whim of Lovers Rossep Conkling Simmons, noted writer and lecturer, was unceremoniously arrested and thrown into jail Monday night after lecturing to a crowded house at Bethel A. M. E. Church. Mr. Simmons was under arrest practically throughout the time he was on the platform. Deputy sheriff in the audience waited until he had completed his lecture and put him under arrest as he was about to step from the platform. He secured legal advice in the church and repaired to the office of an attorney without creating any commotion. Very few of the persons present knew what was taking place. Mr. Simmons was arrested on a capias or body execution to satisfy a judgment against him in the sum of $8,000. The judgment is said to have grown out of a damage suit against the orator in connection with an injury to a white boy from an automobile in which Mr. Simmons was riding. The accident in which the boy was injured is said to have occurred more than a year ago. He was scheduled to speak in Cleveland, Ohio, Tuesday night. At a late hour Tuesday the orator was still in custody. EX-HAITI MINISTER TO FRANCE, IS IN NEW YORK NEW YORK, CITY, March 18.—Georges Sylvain, former Haitian Minister to France, officer of the Legion of Honor, officer of Public Instruction in France, who recently arrived in New York, today announced he had received word from his country of the imprisonment for 6 months at hard labor of Phiteas Lemaire, editor of the Courier Haitien, a newspaper published in Port au Prince. In a statement issued at the offices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, Mr. Sylvain said: "Mr. Lemaire, publisher of the Courier Haitien, was tried before a military court of the American Occupation in Haiti on 21st of February of this year and was sentenced to six months at hard labor and a fine of $300 on the 4th of March, for having received and published a news item telling of a brutal attack upon a citizen by a Haitian lieutenant of Gendarmerie. "The Courier Haitian," as its only comment on this story, said it was difficult to believe such acts could still be perpetrated in sight and knowledge of the entire population. Nothing sent to me in the report of what occurred before the military court, indicates that Mr. Lemaire was convinced that a false rumor had been spread or that there had been any refusal on his part to retract in the event the rumor might prove to have been false. "The worst feature of the imprisonments under martial law in Haiti is that the officers concerned are both judges and parties to the trials; and the hard labor invariably accompanying prison sentences has to be executed in company with the worst criminals. "That is why we insist upon the immediate abolition of martial law in Haiti." R. R. Wright Liable In Tourist Mixup PHILADELPHIA, Pa., March 11. —R. R. Wright, Jr., W. H. York and the Rev. L. J. Jordan, trading as the African-American Steamship Co., were found severally liable for damages in the municipal court here last week. The steamship company advertised for sale passage in an excursion trip to Liberia, which failed to materialize. CHICAGO, SATURDAY, MARCH 18th, 1922 RALEIGH, N. C., March 18.—A one-armed, broken-framed black man—a "conjure doctor"—sentenced to die in the electric chair in the last week in March, has suddenly become an issue involving the self-respect of the Old North state. Hired by a white man and woman—Tom Hays and Sarah Whitley—to kill the woman's husband, decrepit old Wright Rouse, twisted by rheumatism and maimed by a cotton gin, has been condemned to die, while the white instigators of the capital crime have escaped with a pentitentiary term, having been convicted only of second-degree murder. Letters from all parts of the state are pouring in upon Governor Morrison demanding that the Rouse's death sentence be commuted. All of the letters are from white people. North Carolina does not lay claim to the distinction of being overly fond of some members of the colored race. A majority of the letters reaching the governor admit this, but they add: "Save the self-respect of the white people of the commonwealth." The most powerful appeal in behalf of the condemned man has come from the commonwealth's attorney that prosecuted the three defendants. He admitted the probable miscarriage of justice in the jury's verdict against the woman and her sweetheart, but he cannot endure the idea of seeing the mentally deficient black man suffer more severely than his vicious white associates. Three Respites for Condemned Man Three respites have been given the condemned man. At the outset of the agitation to save Rouse, Governor Morrison would not yield to the appeals, holding that the demand was not, as it purported to be, for an "equality of justice" but for "equality of injustice." He contended that all three persons involved in Rouse's crime deserve the death penalty and appeared determined to see that the one to whom the court had allotted that sentence was made to suffer it. But finally he granted a respite and followed it with two others. One of the possibly "mitigating circumstances" in the Rouse case is the fact that, although the $500 was promised the man for his crime, he did not get a cent. Sex Saves Woman from Chair Unquestionably it was Mrs. Whitley's sex which saved her, and indirectly saved Hays. No woman has ever sat in North Carolina's death chair. One woman was sentenced to death in recent years—also for the murder of her husband—but her sentence was committed to life imprisonment by a governor who offered as his reason that she had been a girl once and was still feminine. 18Yr. Old Boy Hanged By Mississippi Mob ABERDEEN, Miss. March 18. William Baker, 18, was hanged by a mob 10 miles from here last week. Deputy sheriffs declared the boy was taken from them while they were en route with him to jail here. Biddle University Changes Name CHARLOTTE, N. C., March 18.

Gang Rushes Copper, He Shoots 1 A gang rush aimed at Policeman John Collins, white of the Stanton Avenue Station, resulted in the probable fatal shooting of Eugene Tabor, 3714 Grand boulevard, late Saturday night at 31st street and Cottage Grove avenue. Tabor appeared on 31st street at the head of a gang of rowdies, all of whom appeared to be more or less under the influence of moonshine whiskey. As Collins attempted to arrest Tabor, his companions interered, pummeling the policeman, scratching his face and tearing his uniform. In the melee Tabor slipped from Collins' grasp and joined in the tracas. Drawing his gun, Collin stired point blank into the crowd. The bullet struck Tabor, who was foremost. The sound of the shooting threw the neighborhood into pandemonium. A riot call was sent to three police stations, who responded with wagonloads of bluecoats. In the meantime the excitement spread to the Lincoln Gardens, the patrons of which were filing into the streets. The dancers rushed back into the cabaret in much alarm. Patrol wagons in the streets gave rise to the report that the place was being raided. At the County Hospital Tabor is not expected to live. Law Firm Got $300,000 Fee In Taylor Case Law Firm Got $300,000 Fee In Taylor Case SHREVEPORT, La., March 18.—The law firm of Foster, Looney & Wilkinson, white, attorneys for Lillie Taylor, America's richest colored girl in her suit for royalties in the Homer Oil Fields, received approximately $300,000 for attorney's fees.

Pierce was a porter at the place. According to the proprietor, Pierce opened the door to the saloon and admitted his accomplice, the two of them working the combination to the safe and stealing $700. They then fled, leaving the door to the saloon standing open. Police notified the proprietor and a search was made for the missing man. He was found a short time later at the Illinois Central depot, where he had bought a railroad ticket to some point in Iowa. When placed under arrest he had $275 in his pocket. Pierce's accomplice could not be located. When arraigned in police court, he was held to the grand jury in $1,000 bond. His sole remark was that he was-homesick.

Saunders, 211 E. 45th St., have been swept into the divorce courts. Harvey Saunders is well known as the head of a string of cut-rate drug stores. Mrs. Luella Saunders is a chiropodist with offices on the 6th floor of the North American Bldg., in the Loop district. Says He Is Cruel Mrs. Saunders names cruelty as her reason for seeking divorce alleging that the druggist handled her with violence on several occasions. Mr. Saunders denies that he ever struck his wife, and comes back with a story of storm and strife dating from a few months after their marriage in 1918. He charges his wife with open hostility to his mother, Mrs. Sarah Saunders, who is 70 years of age. According to Mr. Saunders, at the time of his marriage, his wife was content to have his mother live with them, but changed her attitude within a few short months after marriaeg. On one occasion, he says, she ejected his mother from the house while he was in Indianapolis, Ind. He was finally forced to secure a home for her at 4732 Prairie Ave. Insisted On Dog In Bed Another method of making his life miserable he says, was his wife's insistence on keeping a fox terrier in bed at night. The dog was one of his gifts to her, but the situation became so unbearable, he says, that finally on one occasion he seized the dog by the scruff of the neck and hurled it from the house. He declares that this is one of the instances of cruelty of which she complains. Saunders also declares he was driven almost to distraction by his wife's belief in "hoodoofism." She was in the habit, he says, of sprinkling salt on the floor and underneath chairs and beds to dispel "his mother's hoodoo." One night, he says, he found her scrubbing the floor with salt water "to drive away spirits." Double Crossed Him In Money On one occasion, Saunders says, he gave his wife $800.00 to hold for him. Brundage Flays False Republicanism Speaking before a large audience in the Morrison Hotel, Attorney General Brundage of the State of Illinois made a scathing attack on the false ideals of opposite republican factions in Chicago. He said that purity, cleanliness and square dealing were the essence of Republicanism, but that the Thompson-Small-Lundin regime had perverted the ideals and that the party should be purged. Mr. Brundage in his official capacity has indicted Governor Small and promises that no public official shall be derelict to his duty and violate the trust that the public has placed in him and escape the punishment of the law. Many members of the black race turned out to the affair and were enlightened by the clean-cut address of the Attorney General. Some were heard to remark that Mr. Brundage would receive their vote in the hereafter, as they were convinced that clean politics would eventually solve their civic problems. EIGHT PAGES Says He Is Cruel Insisted On Dog In Bed Double Crossed Him In Money (Continued on page 3.) 2 BLACK STAR LINE BLED U. N. I. A. NEW YORK CITY, March 18.—That the "Black Star Line" literally bleed the U. N. I. A. white has been conceded by officials of the organization here. Agreement is said to have been reached to dissolve the steamship line which ate up thousands of dollars and never yielded commensurate returns. If the steamship project is given up, it is pointed out, the U. N. I. A. will be able to get on a firm business basis for the first time in its history. The excursion steamer "Kanawha," which cost about $800 per month to operate, never brought in more than $500 per month. The old and unseaworthy "Yarmouth" ran the line into thousands of dollars of debt and into numerous suits before it was finally laid up in the West Indies, where its bones are now bleaching. Insiders declare that operation of the steamship line has resulted in suits against Garvey in nearly every court in New York. Two lawyers are retained to devote all of their time to these suits. Garvey even has suits in the Admiralty Courts, where no black face was ever seen before. Laundries also Failed Garvey's idea of pushing laundries in New York is said also to have lost money for him. Competition is too keen and the white laundries do the work cheaper. The only profit, reported by his business enterprises was the string of grocery stores, which are said to have returned a handsome proft, the income from which was used to support the losing steamship lines. $40,000 in Escrow With respect to the indictment against him for fraudulent use of the mails, Garvey intends to show that he had $40,000 put in escrow for the purchase of the boat, and that there was never any intention to defraud investors.

Words finally failed to meet the situation and Jones fired at Derrit, wounding him in the head. The bullet lodged beneath the scalp. Bert Williams' Indictment Of Race Prejudice Bert Williams' Indictment Of Race Prejudice NEW YORK CITY, March 18- Percy Hammond, noted dramat critic, writing for New York and Chicago papers, has written an intimate disclosure of Bert Williams' philosophy of life. According to Mr. Hammond According to Mr. Hamilton, Bert Williams was a reticent, unobtrusive fellow who seldom could be got to talk intimately about his peculiar position on the American stage. He was not as plaintive out of the theater as in it and he contemplated his predicament philosophically. Yet his closer associates knew that his heart was heavy, Unquestionably, years ago, he was a comic artist of the first rank, doomed to a permanent environment of songs and dances, with the doors of promotion closed against him. Other artists in "revues" advanced to legitimate fame like Mr. Warfield or Barney Bernard, but he on account of his color, could not, with success, aspire to make his genius an instrument of characterization in the better fields of the theater. By the time Eugene O'Neill and Charles Gilpin proved in "The Emperor Jones" that a Negro might become a distinguished actor it was too late for Bert Williams. His ambition "had quit him and his talents had waned." It was intimated above that Mr. Williams nursed this circumstance as a private woe and was mute concerning it. But one night, in the bar of the Stratford Hotel, in Chicago, after he had been subjected to a slight humiliation by a northern man, he told me of his feeling in the matter. You may be surprised to hear that he described the frontier between him and his audience as "an American phase"; yet he talked well, having thought much. Said he, as I put it down at the time, "This may sound snobbish, though it isn't"; I'm not a native of the United States, but a West Indian, and I must take solace from my philosophy so long as I earn my livelihood in this country. The rebellion is all out of me, for I know that this is the only civilization in the world where a man's color makes a difference, other matters being equal. And you must admit that there's food for thought, not necessarily bitter, in the fact that in London I may sit in open lodge with a premier of Great Britain, and be entertained in the home of a distinguished novelist, while here in the United States, which fought four years for a certain principle. I am often treated with an air of personal and social condescension by the gentleman who sweeps out my dressing room or the gentleman whose duty it is to turn the 'spotlight on me if the stage directions call upon him to do so. I am allowed to come into the bar of a hotel, but I am forbidden to enter its dining-room.

THUGS STONE HOME OF TEACHER BALTIMORE, Md., March 18. White hoodlums and lawbreakers stoned and fired shots at the home of Harry Pratt, principal of Public School No. 113, at 1:30 Tuesday morning. A white mob composed of men and women broke out the windows, knocked the front door loose on its hinges, and otherwise maliciously and feloniously damaged the property by spattering ink on the steps and building. Bricks, pistols and bottles were used in the attack. Professor Pratt recently bought a house at 527 Sandford Place, and moved his family Saturday. The mob in their attempt to intimidate the colored man to give up his home used curses and threats. Pratt called up the police who arrived after the mob had left. None of the mob have been identified as yet. Shots fired at the house entered the bedroom of a white neighbor piercing the ceiling. Pratt refused to be driven from his home and notified the officers he would not move for a dozen mobs. Tulsa Mob Cuts Off Man's Ear TULSA, Okla., March 18—John Smitherman, a former deputy sheriff and policeman, was seized early Saturday by a band of white men, forced into an automobile, and spirited away into the country. He was found at Claremore and brought to Tulsa, when it was found that he had been severely beaten and one of his cars cut off. WALLACE CLARK CHAMPION OF ECONOMY WALLACE CLARK CHAMPION OF ECONOMY Wallace G. Clark, a native of Illinois and a resident of Chicago for 55 years, is Republican candidate for County Treasurer, one of the most important offices in the county, requiring a man of business training and executive ability. As senior member of the real estate firm of Clark & Trainer and as president of the company owning and operating the People's Trust and Savings Bank Building and as former trustee of the Sanitary District, Wallace G. Clark has demonstrated his efficient handling of large and complicated business affairs and stands out as one of Chicago's premier business men. P. Brilliant Record on Sanitary District As trustee of the Sanitary District of Chicago from 1905 until 1920, elected by the people three times to this office, Mr. Clark, by his noted service, faithfully and aggressively protected and conserved the public's interest. Through Mr. Clark's untiring and persistent efforts, spoils and mis-management were eliminated from that agency's affairs. Electrical energy for street lighting purposes was reduced by this achievement from $105.00 per are light per year to $9.38 per are light per year. Mr. Clark's executive ability in public and private life, his high conception of the public duty, the lofty standards for which he has fought, and his notable achievements in public service, qualify him above all for the big business office of County Treasurer of Cook County, requiring in its administration the application of business methods, integrity, courage and aggressive honesty.

The treaty between the United States and Liberia, it is claimed, amounts to annexation of the black republic rather than creation of a protectorate. It is said that Liberia has gone the way of Haiti, San Domingo and Porto Rico. Ministers For Shortening Funerals ATLANTA, Ga., March 17—The A. M. E. Ministers' Union decided a short nine ago to limit their funeral sermons to one hour. Undertaker David H. Howard appeared before the union and called attention to the fact that funeral sermons had been taking an extraordinary length of time and that the sermons lasted from one to five hours. Mr. Howard's unusual statement was backed up by Rev. R. H. Ward of Allen Temple Church. He is reported to have said that more than half of the colored ministers spent more time eulogizing the deal than in preaching to their flocks. A comparison was made in the course of the debate of the value of the time spent in attending funerals and its economic value if put in hard work. One speaker, himself a minister, asserted that a man could earn enough money in the time spent listening to five-hour funeral services to support two-thirds of Negro schools of the city. Most of the ministerial brethren seemed to favor the proposal and unanimously voted to limit their sermons hereafter to one hour.

Annsorge has appointed Emile T. Holley of 102 West 138th Street, to the United States Naval Academy, at Annapolis. No colored boy has ever graduated from Annapolis, nor so far as is known, has any ever been named. Congressman Annsorge announced that of the four appointees to Annapolis which he was privileged to make for the Twenty-first Congressional District, Emile T. Holley was highly recommended to him by prominent people of both races. Emile T. Holley is seventeen years of age, and was born in Aiken, S. C. May 23, 1904. When he was two years old his parents moved to New York. Several years later he entered Public School No. 89, at 134th Street and Lenox Avenue, from which he graduated with honors. While at school he was solo violinist of the orchestra, a member of the order squads, a member of the track and baseball teams, and prize speaker at the school. During the latter years' of war he was among the few chosen from his school to assist in the work at the Drift Board located in his district. He is now a freshman at the College of the City of New York. While attending Townsend Harris High School he was on the Varsity track and baseball squads and was an officer of his class. He is superintendent of the St. James Presbyterian Sunday School of 67 West 137th Street, and a member of the Boys' Executive Council of the N. M. C. A. Congressman Annsorge said, "I have tried to live up to the principle of the 'Square Deal' to all my constituents, and on that basis I feel that of the four appointments to Annapolis at my disposal, my colored constituents are entitled to one as a matter of simple justice." WARREN DOUGLAS RECOMMENDS SOL. P. RODERICK Below is a letter to voters from Hon Warren B. Douglas, representative from the Third Senatorial District. Sol. Roderick Chicago, Ill., March 10, 1922 Dear Friend: Having served as a member of the Illinois' House of Representatives for four years, has placed me in position to me and know very intimately the men making up that body of lawmakers in Springfield now again before us for the consideration at the polls.

Roderick, who has served eight years as a member of House and is now a candidate for Trustee of the Sanitary District subject to the primaries April 11. Mr. Roderick has always stood for the elevation of our people and has taken a courageous stand against any and all measures tending to malign or impede our progress. I refer you to Hon. S. B.

Douglas, blew into Uniontown a few days ago and created a furetore by dropping $1 in the collection plate of St. Paul's A. M. E. Church. He then contributed $100 to the church in the form of a check. Douglas said that he was from a wealthy family near Macon, Ga., and had just sold his plantation for $200,000. Becoming temporarily embarrassed, he borrowed $50 from the Rev. Alexander Q. Morton, pastor of the church. A few days later the check came back marked "no such account." A search revealed that the affable stranger had left town suddenly "on business." Landlady As Peacemaker, Shoots Roomer Mrs. Lucille Driskell, the landlady at 4048 Indiana avenue, is determined to keep peace and quell any disorder in her home. So well is she carrying out her determination that George Wilson, one of her roomers, is now lying in the Fort Dearborn Hospital with a bullet hole in his side. George got into a playful quarrel Sunday with his sweetheart, Miss Marie Crawford of the same address. He charged the girl with bestowing too much of her attention on another man. Mrs. Driskell became interested in the quarrel and attempted to plastic the lovers. Her attempts to throw oil upon the troubled waters angered Wilson so that he threatened to kill her with a razor, which he drew from his pocket. The landlady then rushed to her bedroom and returning with a revolver shot the rate lover. The bullet entered through the right side and emerged under the heart.

THE CHICAGO WHIP CITY, BU Attorney General Brundage Courts Don't Want Man, He Goes Free MEALESTER, Okla, March 18.—"Kid" Kelly, under death sentence for eighteen years, who has been held in prison since the territorial days of Oklahoma without even commitment papers, walked out of the state penitentiary a free man. Kelly owes his release to President Harding, who signed a pardon, and to an Oklahoma newspaper man, who discovered the man's plight a year ago. According to prison officials, technically there never has been any authority for holding Kelly. The prisoner's status resulted from differences between the federal and state courts over jurisdiction in the case. Kelly was first tried in a federal court when Oklahoma was a territory, but then came statehood, and on subsequent appeals both the federal and state courts disclaimed jurisdiction. Kelly was convicted of killing Jim Dillingham in 1905. When the case was brought to light a year ago a movement immediately was instituted to tree Kelly or to set the date for execution of sentence. The matter was brought to the attention of President Harding.

BURTON Eugene J. Marshall Ward for the past five years, a lifelong Republican, believing devoutly in municipal ownership of public utilities, a larger measure of freedom for the individual citizen as the surest means for the achievement of democracy in government and all that means and works for good government. Able Lawver Mr. Marshall, who has been identified with local politics since he began the practice of law and has proven himself far-sighted, active, public spired and capable, and represents the active younger men who have demonstrated their ability to serve and act intelligently and is capable of the support of all good citizens who desire a competent representative in the legislature and one capable of thoroughly dischanging the duties of a legislator in the interest of all of the people. A vote for Marshall at the primaries April 11, is a vote for the home, for the protection of the weak against the strong and for good government as interpreted by wise legislators.

CONSULTATION ALWAYS FREE OI NOSEY saw so many cars banked up in front of that flat on East 40th street, between Vincennes avenue and Grand boulevard, that he was sure somebody had opened up a used car department and was having a big sale there. The only thing that puzzled him was that the cars were always there at night, and Nosey had never heard of anybody holding an automobile sale at night. He noticed there cars of all makes and sizes, from a rattling tin lizzie to a long, low, luxurious Stutz. After a long and patients vigil, Nosey learned the truth. At gray dawn began to streak the eastern skies, the owners of the cars began emerging from the flat. Yes, there was a sale going on there, but it wasn't an automobile sale. OUTSIDE of a dead man, Nosey has yet to find a man so dumb as that young professional man who constantly stays drunk on moonshine. And the strange part about it is that this bird has accustomed himself to the joy water so well that he can be dead drunk and everybody will think he's sober. At least, everybody but his wife. Oh, boy, she knows him. Last week while she and her 'gentleman' friend were enjoying the music in a 35th street cabaret, her husband came lurching in. The "other man" made a break for the door. "Calm yourself, sweetie," said the errant wife. "He's so drunk he wouldn't know his mother." Friend husband sat down at the same table with his wife and rival, and honestly, while the other man wasn't looking, slipped his wife a card and tried to make a date with her. . . . SOME of these "out-of-town" huss bands are going to get wise yet. A certain young matron's home was the scene of a wild "Hollywood" party late last week. You know the kind, cigarette stumps, wine bottles, broken dishes, overturned chairs and so forth. Well, the old boy eased back in town the next day. He stopped at the office of a friend to pass the time of day. As Providence would have it this "friend" had been at the party the night before. He hastily telephoned the young woman of the unexpected return. She was still sleeping off the effects of the "night before". A hasty house cleaning ensued, and all was calm and serene when the head of the house reached home. EVERY now and then Nosey manages to get in on some free eats. While nooseving around in a big flat building he had happened to brush up against a door. It opened suddenly and a basket was pushed out. Nosey took the basket. It was full of good food—chicken and the like. Nosey was dumfounded, until he saw a young man come up to the same door and knot—softly. A lady put out her head and said, "too way, you have your dinner." He whispered, "I have not." The lady liked to have dropped but footsteps within made her close the door. Nosey smiled and remained in the shadows of the hall until the disappointed diner left. Nosey figured that if the man could not put up a kick against the master of the house, there were no grounds for him to object to him (Nosey) eating the dinner. YOU HAVE to follow the night hit very closely if you want to keep up with the changing scenes. Nosey made one of the all-night cabarrets the other morning about five o'clock. He arrived just in time to see one of our "leadingest leaders" in an alteration with a man who toils not but seems always to have plenty of money. The lady over whom the dispute arose was one of those worn tired, painted and washed-out "blonds" who chewed gum while the men argued. It was finally settled. The "leading leader" took himself off with staggering footsteps and the young man took the lady. "Leaders" cannot lead everybody they meet. Tavern Notes Many elegant and luxurious dinner parties were enjoyed at the Tavern Cafe, 3456 South State street, during the past week.

Kecble 4425 South Dearborn street, entertained at dinner on Sunday afternoon Messrs. Floyd Gardner, T. H. Henderson and Rev. L. Bodie, pastor of Harvest, Baptist Church Amateur Minstrels Perplexed Never in the history of the Amateur Minstrel Club have they had such a beautiful collection of songs and such an array of excellent talent eager to do their part for the benefit of the "Old Folks' Home." It is a puzzle to just what songs to use and how to arrange that each ambitions star may have a chance to shine. No more will Dave Meljowan have to do all the accompanying at rehearsals, for there are several assistant jazzers. Neither will Dave Lawrence have to do all of the good dancing, as there are several other dexterous artists. Burdette is composing numbers for the occasion and his first offering is a dream. Get ready and don't miss Baster Monday night at the Armory for the benefit of the old Folks' Home." Returns From Mother's Funeral Mrs. Mary L.

Glenwood The Coming Cemetery of Chicago and Cook County Mount Glenwood Cemetery, located twenty-two miles south of the City Hall, between the villages of Thornton and Glenwood, contains one hundred and three acres, more or less, of land which has been improved at an expense of Two Hundred Thousand ($200,000) Dollars, which improvements consist of landscaping, macadam roadways, trees, shrubbery, three sets of ornamental iron gates, a chapel and superintendent's quarters with modern improvements. Thornt Creek runs through the cemetery, adding greatly to the natural beauty of the grounds. The cemetery is surrounded by a county forest preserve and thereby receives the benefit of the natural beauty of those tracts. The cemetery contains fifty thousand lots, of which approximately fifteen thousand have been sold, and twenty-two thousand additional lots are to be sold within a six-month period commencing February 1, 1922. The remaining lots will be divided up into single graves for single burials for the future. One-half of the cemetery has been fully developed, laid out, beautified and completed. The same work on the remaining portion will be finished in the early summer of 1922. A complete waterworks will be built and in operation about that time, for the purpose of supplying water throughout the cemetery. Lots up to and including the present time have been sold at prices ranging from $75.00 to $400.00. There were no lots sold for any less than $75.00 since the present improvements were completed. It is now proposed by officers of the cemetery to sell the twenty-two thousand lots for the flat price of $50.00 each, instead of $75.00 and upwards, as heretofore. These lots are to be sold on the installment plan. The purchaser will pay $10.00 down upon the signing of the contract and $10.00 or more per month until the full purchase price is paid. In addition to title to the lot the purchasers shall each receive two shares of stock for each lot purchased by them, which stock is now being sold for $15.00 per share. The lot owners will have a double interest in the cemetery, that of lot owner and that of stockholder. As a part of the revenue of the company about $1.50 per year will be collected from each lot owner as a fixed expense for watering the lots and cutting the grass for the purpose of keeping the cemetery in first-class condition. This is a sum considerably less than is usually charged by other cemeteries for like services. It cannot be too strongly emphasized and borne in mind that while the cemetery is one of the most beautiful and attractive in the City of Chicago and its environs, yet the price of $50.00, not to include the stock bonus which is easily worth $30.00, represents about 25 per cent of the selling of lots in the average cemetery. Do not fail to secure one of these choice lots while they last. It is the coming Oak Woods of cemeteries in this city. Every family and householder should own a lot thereby providing for the future of our bereaved ones just as we do in everything else. Agents will call and see you upon request and furnish full information. Call the office by Phone Victory 6254 or visit our office at 3125 S. State Street. Come and select a choice lot while you can.

His address, "The History of the N. A. A. C. P., and the significance of the Dyer Bill," was very interesting and instructive. He defined the Dyer bill in all of its varied phases and what effect its passage would have upon our group. The musical program was a brilliant success. Miss Freda Crossley, Miss Lo D. Bonds, Miss Helen Robins, soloists, rendered beautiful selections. Mrs. Henrietta Johnson Douglas, member of Faculty Coleridge—Taylor School of Music, rendered a violin solo which was a rare treat. Organ solo, "Meditation"—Faukes by Miss Estella C. Bonds, was well rendered. That the audience enjoyed the numbers was evidenced in the applause. All were forced to respond with encores. The feature of the program was an accordion solo, "A Poet and Peasant Overture"—Suppe; (On "La Palone," by Miss Hazel Nyman. She was forced to respond three times with encores. Berean Choir rendered pleasing choral numbers. Estella C. Bonds, organist; Jackson J. Stovall, president; Isaac T. Yarbrough, chorister; Rev W. E. Bradan, pastor; Miss Helen Thomas, chairman of program committee. Everybody attends the special matinee at Dreamland, 3520 South State street, Thursday and Sunday after noons. Do you?

It is a three-act affair by Joseph Noel and Innis G. Osborn, full of pathos and comedy. The story, one of great interest to all humanity, is powerful and educating, showing how the course of one's life can be changed, by surgical operations. Miss Evlynn Preer, as Cecille Griffin, the shop girl, was great, as the new lead character in this company. Alice Gorgas made much fun for the listeners, and Sussie Sutton was as usual good in her original character portrayal. Ivy Hubbard made a good maid. F. Lawrence Criner, as Dr. Courtland, was excellent, and Chas, Olden Arthur Ray, Chas, Moore and Allie L. Hughes, all lined up to their past reputations as real dramatic stars. Mr. Clyde Armstrong, the director, promises some plays for the future. Mr. W. A. Johnston is the owner of the Dunbar Players and is sparing no expense in giving the patrons the very best that the market affords. The Avenue A first-class vaudville bill was seen here on Monday night by a large audience. The Iron Trail, a feature picture, is also shown.

Till he hit the worst town in the West. And saw some folks and goings-on that needed fixin'. Then—The story of a man who lived to fight—till his first defeat taught him love. Filled with the clatter of gun-shoot and hoof beats. "SATURDAY NIGHT" Coming—next week—Coming. Cecil B. De Mille's "Saturday Night," with Leatrice Joy, Conrad Nagel, Theodore Roberts. One woman his wife—the other the wife of his friend. Now, when one must be left—which did he really love? It is only one of the thundering sensations in this, the latest, greatest picture by Cecil B. De Mille. Greatest in beautiful women—greatest in gowns and settings—greatest in heart-tug—greatest in thrills.

KHAN LABORATORIES 136 E. 12th Ave. Homestead, Pa. Has Few Equals As Cornetist . Tommy Ladneir Tommy Ladneir, now assistant director of Vassar's Orchestra under contract at the Lincoln Gardens, is one of the youngest cornetists in the business, but critics say he has few if any equals in these sections Ladneir was born in 1900 in New Orleans. His first professional engagement was in 1917, when he ran away from home as a member of Russell Bros. Shows. At that time Tommy was a drummer, but after a few experiments with the cornet the manager saw he was not developing the wonderful talent that had been given him and induced Tommy to take up the latter, which he did, and it was only a few days until Little Tommy was the sensation of the show. In 1919 Ladneir, a mere kid, came to Chicago and became affiliated with the Local Union No. 228 and from then on has been taking the Chicago public by storm. Some time ago critics secretly visited the various cafes in an effort to locate the man best suited for jazz solo work for a contemplated proposition that is sure to materialize, and they almost unanimously agreed that Tommy was the man. Tommy's latest accomplishment was the composition of the 'Jerusalem Blues,' quite a popular song hit. Ladneir resides with his mother at 3255 Calumet avenue.

S. (Nick) Nichols & Crawford Williams, Proprietors DETROIT STARS PERFECT PLANS FOR TRAINING DETROIT STARS PERFECT PLANS FOR TRAINING DETROIT, Mich., March 17. — John T. Blomit, owner of the Detroit Stars' Baseball Club, has sent a call to his charges to report here Monday, April 3. Bruce Petway, for many seasons, premier receiver of worth, is lead the local aggregation for the coming season, and Detroit baseball bugs have a life-size hunch that the move that landed the firey Petway in the managerial roll was a wipe move, destined to put new life into the players also the fan public. Blomit has surrounded Catcher, Manager Petway, with a string of slabmen, who under the turtlege of the veteran receiver should round out about the best staff of hurlers on the league circuit. Holland has always been dubed an ace and is good for majority wins in any sort of going. Letty Cooper should have a big year this time and force, now well seasoned, is expected to come through in grand shape. Wilson, the star of the last season's Columbus string of pitchers. sports is not surpassed by any hurler in the league and will make life miserable for the big guns. Jack Marshall, last season of the Foster forces, has the speed, curves, physical ability and noodle to push right on through to the front. The change of base should make him show his worth. Cross and Harper are new men and come highly recommended. With Petway figuring the strategy and doing coach duty, he has a most able catcher to look after the heavy second-string work in young Williams. This lad broke in with the American Giants and at once displayed one of the classiest throwing wings in the game. He is a slashing hitter, a sure receiver and displays the earmarks of a corner. Daniels and Holliday are promising material. The local infield is all that could be desired. There is not a weak spot in the lot. Thomas, the new man at second, gained his spurs with Columbus last year and is one of the very best second sackers in the game and a sure fire hitter. The outfield looms strong with Barber of established prestige. Smith, the clean-up smasher of the late Buckeye and Lane one of the flashes of the league and an all-round player of value. Jones and Watson are going to put up a fight for a berth and will make the others hustle. The stars will start prepping at Mark Park; the latter part of April the stars will tackle one or two of the Mich-Ontario, Mont. League clubs. Buzz Wetzell, the minor league pilot who has won more pennants than any one in the game, is anxious to take a shot at the colored leaguers, if for no other reason only to try and even the score which stands in favor of the Detroit Stars over Canadian league clubs. Tate Stars To Pry Off Lid April 16th CLEVELAND, O., March 16.—The Tate Stars of Cleveland will start their season April 16th by taking on the Tellings Ice Cream, a strong semi-pro white club made up of former major league players. The Tates' lineup will be as follows: Manager Jim Taylor will have about 23 men in training starting April 1st. He thinks he has about the best looking pitching staff in the league. The grandstand will be enlarged to seat about 4,000, with 500 box seats and 1,500 field seats will complete the seating capacity. Giants Leave For Camp In Southland Andrew "Rube" Foster and his American Giants, 16 strong, boarded a rattler Monday headed for New Orleans, where they will do several weeks' of conditioning in preparation for the opening of the National League season April 10th. The party consisted of mostly last year's veterans with the exception of those few players acquired in recent trades, including Big Bill Whitworth, former ace of the Giants' hurling corps last season with the Hilsdale club, who was secured by the Giants when the Hilsdale club announced its intention of remaining outside of the league and play outlaw ball. Rube will have several young players on the trip, several of whom are already at the training camp, others will join the party on the way South. Every man seemed as happy as a lark as they waded into the several admirers and friends who journeyed to the station in an effort to get a glimpse of their idols before the opening of the season. KEARNS IS READY, PAGE FRAZEE, BOY NEW YORK, March 11—(Special)—Having made his offer of $350,000 for the Dempsey end of a bout between the heavyweight champion and Harry Wills, Harry H. Frazae of New York, Boston and Peoria, has disappeared, but in his absence Manager Kearns of Dempsey has hastened to "accept" the offer, with considerable spooning comment on the side. "The terms are very satisfactory," said Kearns. "Very satisfactory, indeed." Has anybody seen Mr. Frazae lately? I hope that nothing happens to the poor fellow until he gets a chance to sign the papers and post a jorlief. How is dear old Harry's health anyhow? Are you sure that he is well wrapped up and everything? A man like Mr. Frazae, a benefactor of the human race, could ill be spared at this time. "It is not true I am holding out for half a million dollars for Jack Dempsey's share of the purse. I am willing to compromise on $350,000. If Mr. Frazee should walk inside the door at this moment and place $350,000 in my hands I would take it and give him a receipt. "But, seriously, do you think Mr. Frazee is good for this amount?" No Bout in Boston BOSTON, Mass., March 11—11 Harry Frazee's offer of $350,000 to Jack Dempsey for a bout with Harry Willis is accepted, the battle will not be held at Fenway Park here, members of the state boxing commission said today.

Wills Hand Injured In Norfolk Bout NEW YORK, March 18—Kid Norfolk, who was knocked out by Harry Wills at Madison Square Garden last week, may gain solace from the fact that Wills went to Bellevue Hospital to have X-rays taken of his right hand, which he injured in dealing the knock-out. Now $1,195 Touring Car WITH its clean, racy body lines, ebony trimmed, its handsome top with gypsy curtains and plate glass rear window, the Dixie Flyer five-passenger Touring Car, Model 70, includes mechanical refinements that denote unusual skill in engineering and offer the user much comfort and satisfaction. It is correctly designed, amply powered and is rich in the possession of those characteristics which inherently constitute car value. Of medium weight it is economical to operate—low in gasoline consumption and high in tire mileage. It is highly finished in optional colors—Oriental green, blue or maroon. Roadster THE Dixie Roadster is a two-passenger car mounted on the same chassis as the five-passenger Touring Car. A distinctive design—low body and graceful rear deck, gives it that appearance of great utility and serviceability—the outward expression of its mechanical excellence. Like other Dixie Models, the Roadster has a full complement of convenient equipment which makes driving easy and untiring. It is furnished in durable finish—color option being the same as that of the Touring Car. KEAN Calumet 250 SPORTIVELY PEAKING The farmers should be allowed to have all the moonshine they want. Anyway, what is the difference, a "mule" is a mule, if one kicks harder than the other, that's their business. There are plenty of visitors in New York, but the checkroom and storage men are smiling and not the hotels, for they are members of the six-day bicycle riding teams. If an automobile has 90 horsepower, how much mule power has a barrel of moonshine? The national bootleggers' association held a meeting the other day for the purpose of electing a president. Couldn't do any good, however, as the winner had so many votes until they could not be counted, while the other's total was so large until they were not sure whether he had been beaten or not. A conspicuous sign reads: "Give us light wines and beer, moonshine does not pay taxes." This is true, and neither will a "tack" pay for moonshine. Gibbons is eliminated from consideration: Looks like Harry Wills will have a chance to win the title real soon is cope. But beating Jack Dempsey is something else again. If income tax was a monthly instead of annual taxation, everybody except lawyers, sailors and soldiers would work for a dollar a year. Don't know which is worse off: A man without a job or a man with a job trying to figure his income tax. The Defender A. C. basketball team left Monday for the West, where they will play several games, including the Cincinnati Y at Xenia. The Giants may train properly, or they may not. But when the season closes you can bet they will be near the top. Someone said of Frank Young, who was all dressed up in white to referee a private boxing bout: "He looks like a tennis star!" Guess they never saw Frank on the Court. The Dixie Fly CE BULL Now $1,395 Sport Models Speedster Sport Touring THE Sport Models, Speedster and Sport Touring complete the Dixie Flyer family, crowning with distinction, the efforts of Dixie Engineers. These cars, constituting the latest acquisitions to the Dixie line, are true sport models. They reflect the ideas of invigorated, red-blooded youth, characterized by individualism without a trace of freakishness. The Speedster is a two-seater that is given a racy appearance by special body design, lowering of seats and inclining steering column and windshield. It is equipped with removable, collapsible top which is stored in the dust and weather-proof rear compartment when not in use. The Sport Touring is a five-passenger car of surprising roominess with low-hanging, one-man top jutting over the sloping, nickel-trimmed windshield. A design that satisfies the ultra fashionable and yet, a car in which the family of modest taste feels at home. Both Speedster and Sport Touring are elaborately provided with special equipment that beautifies and contributes to the exceptional car value in Dixie Sport Models. Aluminum steps of attractive design are substituted for the conventional running board. Upholstery of beautiful, hand-buffed Spanish leather is used throughout. The windshield, and Standard Motor Car NE MOTOR DISTRIBUTORS 2009 M Final and Standard Motor Car Value PROMISING BASEBALL MATERIAL FOUND AT HOWARD PROMISING BASEBALL MATERIAL FOUND AT HOWARD WASHINGTON, D.C., March 18 —Howard's first call for candidates for the Varsity baseball squad which was issued this week, was responded to by a large number of last year' team, including Payne, Tollet, Kean Johnson, and a group of busky recruits who come with baseball records in high school. Practice will begin in earnest next week and the weeding our process will start. It is expected that Howard will have one of the best varsity baseball teams this year who have ever donned the "blue and white." The schedule of games up to date is as follows: Lincoln University—May 3, at Lin- coln; May 20, at Howard. Union University—May 9, at Union May 12, at Howard. Morgan College—April 8, at Howard. HOWARD TO HOLD INTER-CLASS TRACK MEET WASHINGTON, D. C. March 18 The Department of Physical Education of Howard University, following its plan to increase interest in athletics among all the students of the university, announces the First Annual Inter-Class Track Meet to be held on the campus on April 8, 1922. Contestants in the meet are to be entered by the various classes in the several departments of the university. Aside from the added interest in this athletic activity, it is expected that the holding of Inter-Class track events will be a means of supplying a source for Varsity track material. All entrants in the inter-class meet are required to register under A. A. U. rules. Medals are to be awarded the winners of each event. radiator, bumper and ventilators are nickeled trimmed. These models are elegantly finished in optional colors—blue, maroon, burnt orange or Oriental green. Now $1,895 Sedan THERE is elegance, quiet dignity, comfort and usefulness in the Dixie Flyer Sedan. Graceful lines distinguished hood and cowl and are carried out consistently through the entire design. Upholstered in rich blue broadcloth, decorated by three frosted globes and hardware of Adam period design; deep resilient cushions—all are characteristic of Dixie Closed Models. The easily adjustable windshield and windows make it possible to enjoy the free vision and unrestricted fresh air of the open car. Coupe THE Dixie Flyer Coupe is mounted on the identical chassis used for the Sedan and is equipped with the same high class mechanical units and refined fittings. It is admirable for women of taste and for business or professional men. Classed as a regular three-passenger car, it is equipped with an auxiliary seat which folds under the cowl. It will carry four passengers. The bodies of both Sedan and Coupe are finished in elegant Mallard blue, the lamps and fenders are highly finished in hard black enamel. Sport Editorial Sport Editorial Dijever have your plans upset in a bad way? If so, you know exactly how the Kearns Publicity Co. feels this morning after what happened to Tommy Gibbons. It was a case of bursting up cutt-and-dried plans, we admit, but was one of the best things ever done. In fact, it added another step toward the thing you have heard so much about recently, "Saving the Game." Gibbons, a man who does not in any way whatsoever compare with Dempsey, was being groomed and built-up to battle the champion. This match, even worse than the Carpenter-Dempsey argument, was getting along seemingly quite well. Harry Greb, aighter who is little more than fair, with hardly any punching power, a seemingly set-up for Gibbons, wa stetched into the scene; this was supposed to be the final episode in the Dempsey match act, if Gibbons should win by the knockout route which it was agreed by all critics that he hoped to do, the Dempsey match was assured. But, alas! Gibbons lost. Nuf Sed. A Harry Wills-Jack Dempsey bout is a sure thing, regardless of what anybody may say to the contrary. Away down in Jack Kearns' heart, we believe, he will try to avoid it. We also believe that both Dempsey and Kearns know that a fight between Wills and Dempsey will turn out to be the toughest proposition that has yet gotten in the way of their championship career. But, after all, there will be only one question: How much is there in it for the champion? He is entitled to all he can get and no doubt, when the right time comes, the wily Jack Kearns will get all that the champ is entitled to. When the time comes around for a Wills-Dempsey battle to be signed up, we predict that Dempsey will get $500,000 for the job and Wills will get a chance at the title.

What Name? in error in describing those of the Negroes, colored people, "race war are not capable of clean-cut delineation of this makeshift nomenclature is either both those without and those with ethnology and history a bit and a bit of Egyptians, Madgars, Ethiopians, people and of African descent, it will unfair to cut off their posterity from us.

Red and black races pell mell into Eritrea "colored" does not segregate a race of African descent throughout the Sinan America of Ethiopian ancestry unlike their fellows as "race folks." I terms "race man" and "race woman" not scientifically clear whether the colored race or the recently emancipated be more conducive to clear standing to state just what race is referred to and respect to dismiss this artful whom we are. Inductive ones have recently introduced a term has been absorbed and assis- careless. What upshot does this apply to it? Does it stimulate a greater race and clearer race psychology? A mass. It is true that from the hetero has been made to segregate an American forefathers. It is undisputed that America declaring a one-sixteenth a sufficient proportion to bar claim, seek to make those of African descent to minimize us and bring us down to us that, it is entirely befitting our ancestry. Most of us are undisputed. Black people undisputably be prejudice and race hatred which would into the black race, why not capital assert that even though we are yet complexion that we ARE members Somebody is in error in describing those of African descent. Whether they are Negroes, colored people, "race folk," or those of "our group" we are not capable of clean-cut delineation. It is agreed, however, that all of this makeshift nomenclature is cumbersome and tends to bewilder both those without and those within the pale of African descent. Dipping into ethnology and history a bit and in reviewing the achievements of Egyptians, Madgars, Ethiopians, etc., who are recorded as black people and of African descent, it would be obviously and extremely unfair to cut off their posterity from history by styling them as Negroes. The word Negro was never used in early civilization when Africa was in flower. The Negroid races were not called Negroes and to call their descendants such, "robs them of that which does not enrich others but leaves them poor indeed." The term "colored people" does not describe and classify those of African descent adequately and intelligently. Color is produced by pigmentation. Where there is no pigment, there is no color. White races have little or no pigment and therefore no color. It clearly follows that all races that are not white are colored. This throws the yellow, Malay, red and black races pell mell into Babylonian confusion. The term "colored" does not segregate and identify with clarity the people of African descent throughout the world. Some scribes in America of Ethiopian ancestry have taken unto themselves to style their fellows as "race folks." In periodicals and newspaper the terms "race man" and "race woman" is used indiscriminately. It is not scientifically clear whether the scribes mean the African race, the colored race or the recently emancipated African in America. It would be more conducive to clear thinking and unclouded understanding to state just what race is referred to. It would certainly add pride and respect to dismiss this artful wile of dodging the problem of whom we are. Some more audacious ones have recently introduced the term "our group" and this term has been absorbed and assimilated by the unthoughtful and careless. What upshot does this jargon about "our group" carry with it? Does it stimulate a greater race pride? Does it promote a firmer and clearer race psychology? A group is an isolated portion of a mass. It is true that from the heterogeneous masses of people efforts have been made to segregate and isolate the descendants of African forefathers. It is undisputed that laws have been established in America declaring a one-sixteenth percentage of African blood is a sufficient proportion to bar claim to the white race. External forces seek to make those of African descent a race. Internal forces seek to minimize us and bring us down to a "group." It appears to us that, it is entirely befitting and becoming to acknowledge our ancestry. Most of us are undisputably descendants from black people. Black people undisputably belong to the black race. If it is prejudice and race hatred which would throw those of black ancestry into the black race, why not capitalize this prejudice and hatred and assert that even though we are yellow, brown and even white in complexion that we ARE members of the black race. Indifference five years we have constantly come high cost of living, The high cost of living, The high cost of labor" and that the average respectable citizen is a community unless it affects him imprisonce is the parent of most of our sc For the past five years we have constantly complained of "High Costs." "The high cost of living, The high cost of high living, The high cost of low living, The high cost of labor" and an endless chain of "High costs." It is a fact that the average respectable citizen is indifferent to what happens in the community unless it affects him immediately and personally. Indifference is the parent of most of our social and economic ailments. The lack of interest in public affairs has cost this City more than can be estimated at the present time. Criminals have taken advantage of this negative interest to organize themselves. They have established outposts in every locality in the City. Connecting files have been carefully trained to carry out the orders of the master crooks. The brain or so-called masters of organized "Vice" are strongly entrenched in the immunity of "crooked politics." Dishonest dollars are their most effective ammunition. "Indifference on the part of the law abiding elements of our citizenry has permitted criminals to compel honest public officials to subscribe to their modus operandi or be driven from public life. We have paid millions in dollars and cents for our "Indifference." No estimate can be placed upon the lives of the innocent people who have fallen victims at criminals' hands. Promising young men and women who have been drawn into the criminal dragnet is also an important part of the toll society has paid for "Indifference." The chief of police has declared war on Vice in all of its forms. For the first time in history all branches of the local government are pledged to join hands and fight these social parasites. Even this is not sufficient to clean up the City as it should be. Every decent person should be a volunteer in this crusade. Tolerate nothing that savors of "Vice." Report all disorderly places to the authorities. If they for reasons, better known to themselves, fail to act, write letters to the local and daily papers. If the present public "Indifference" is not changed into a positive, active interest in public welfare, the efforts of public officials will avail nothing. This is a temporary period of unemployment. All constructive forces should act briefly and in concert, else new recruits will be added to the ranks of "organized Vice." It is a well established fact that idleness and want present a fertile field for criminal enlistments. This we can ill afford. If the daring operations of the last few weeks among criminals is indicative of their future work, and their ability to "get by" and they are allowed to strengthen their now too powerful organization, law and order will henceforth be a joke. In fact, we might as well have daylight bank robbers as mayors, auto bandit judges, pickpocket aldermen, "confidence" men to form the board of trade, and lewd women to dictate the policy of our social welfare work. Decency and respectability would fare just as well under such a regime as under the present system if Organized Crime is allowed to flourish and go unpunished, on account of our "Indifference." HEALTH HINTS The United States Public Health Service has endorsed a publicity campaign in reference to the danger from the exhaust gases from automobile engines. These gases are poisonous to the human system because they contain carbon monoxide, the same deadly product that is found in sewer (1) Always, open the garage door before starting the engine. (2) Do not allow the engine to run for any length of time in a closed garage. (3) Do not work near the exhaust of running automobile engine. (4) Special precautions as to ventilation are necessary when in garage pits. (5) When the exhaust is used for heating a closed car, the system should be free from leaks. Persons overcome by exhaust gases from automobiles and gasoline engines, should be removed to fresh air and artificial respiration performed until a physician arrives. The essential principle in the treatment is getting the patient in the fresh air and using the pulmotor and lunemotor. LEGAL HINTS Question: I sold some clothing to A who promised to give his note for One Hundred Twenty-five Dollars in payment. He now has the clothing, but refuses to give me the note which was payable in one year with interest. What remedy or remedies might I have if any? Roy J. Gum, Chicago. III. Answer: You may rescind the sale for the fraud on the part of the purchaser and recover the goods in an action of replevin, or for the conversion of the clothing in an action of trover. He may also sue immediately for breach of the special agreement to give the note; but you can not, until the expiration of the time of credit (one year), maintain an action in assumsit on the common count, for goods sold and delivered. Question: I am a jobber and have difficulty making collections from time to time. One case recently was particularly trying. One of my customers had some printing to be done through me. He was to pay for the linotype work and after considerable trouble we got him to give us a check for the price of that work. Upon going to the bank we found that the check could not be cashed for lack of funds. This happens from time to time in our business and I was wondering whether there might be some remedy for the same? C. C. F., Chicago. III. Answer: You can sue more or less as in the case above. Introducing evidence to show that he has failed to have sufficient funds in the bank on other occasions when he drew checks would help your case considerably as it has a tendency to prove that he must have been aware of his insolvent condition. Question: Our organization made an oral agreement with the owner of a hall to permit us use of the hall for dancing and other purposes for afternoons of four special holidays at a stipulated price for each afternoon. He later refused to perform his agreement on the ground that it should have been in writing to be binding. Is writing in this case necessary? G. C. J. Evanston, III. Answer: No. This is not a contract for the sale of an interest in land and need not be in writing. The contract contemplates merely a license and not a sale. Accordingly it is not within the statute. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP Brisbane, he who plays on words and makes puns for the public to read and solve, has given us another beautiful play on words. He says that America should be opened up to the white races of the world and by inference exclude all other people. Tomorrow he will slip out onto the realms of idealism and speak of equal opportunities to all people and the confraternity of all races. He will say that he absorbed and assimilated socialism from his mother's breast. Yet his socialistic scheme for America would exclude the dark races. He is unmindful of Europe's rapid decay under the civilization of the white races and overlooks the rapid rise of Japan. If Brisbane wants to build up a great nation in America he would do well to suggest that the gates be opened up to all humankind and that humanity and fair play be considered separate from skin coloration. After the self styled "jewel of his people," Roscoe Simmons, made his latest speech in Chicago on last Monday night he was seized by the minions of the law and thrust behind prison bars because he had failed to pay a judgment for several thousand dollars imposed upon him by the State of Illinois. The "orator and statesman" was much embarrassed and the "pride of his race" was sadly chagrined. If he understands the white man as he claims to, why didn't he know that they would put him behind the bars for ignoring the mandates of the law? His raucous voice is silenced for awhile. For this relief much thanks. A white girl in Chicago, prevented from marrying a black man by her parents, commits suicide. It was a love affair from school days. The laws of Illinois allow intermarriage between races and no public policy seeks to nullify this law. The girl's love mattered not to her parents and her happiness less, but love found solace in the great silence. Are the parents happier now than they would have been if the daughter was married and alive? Some of narrow minds would say that death is better than dishonor, but Falstaff said that he would rather be a living dishonor than a dead honor. Clarence Darrow says that life is not worth living anyway. At all hazards the girl lies dead. The law still lives and honor and dishonor still exists. Who can change this system of society? What is honor anyway? And how does it bear on love? DR.

There have been numerous deaths caused by these gases from running cars, especially, if the car is left running in a small garage or in a poorly ventilated one. If death does not occur, very annoying symptoms may result. The symptoms manifest themselves in irritation of the air passages, and the various disorders that go along with anemia, because these gases, when they do not produce death at once, get into the system and cause a slow disintegration of the red blood cells. The effects of these gases are produced very quickly, usually before the victim realizes the danger. However, dangers of these gases are overcome, if the person, he be a worker in a small garage or a poorly ventilated large one, will observe the following points: * * * * led "jewel of his peo in Chicago on lasts of the law and thre ad to pay a judgmen him by the State of much embarrassed grined.

The Negro seems to think that he must make a show of luxury and showy case; they seem to have lost all sight of the perspective as to standards of living, especially in the home side. They do not want moderate appearance and convenience in homes, they demand the utmost, the superlative, and because their ideal home is so far beyond their means as to be unobtainable, they refuse to consider less than the ideal and keep on reaching out after the unobtainable. When they do buy homes they "overbuy." They seem to want the home suitable for the ten thousand dollar income, and try to support it on the ten dollar income. Taxes, interest and upkeep prevent them from ever seeing an "out" once they try to buy. They have to fill the house with roomers who have no thought of, or any regard for the premises, only to live till the week is up. The man that starts out to buy something within his means pays for it, then begins again just a little bigger, is the man that in a few years will have independence within his grasp. Hundreds of colored people are going to lose their homes because of the fact that they have "overthought" themselves; they have given no thought to the contingencies that confront them, the effect that it has on their property for them to allow it to depreciate and their neglect to keep the neighborhood in the same condition that the people that preceded them did. Buy small, then you will be able to build big. Y.M.C.A.News A general officer of the Methodist Episcopal Church a leader of young people. Dr. Frederick H. Butler will speak at the Wabash Ave Y. M. C.

David Johnson, "but in the Still Small Voice." Text: I Kings: 15; Chapter, 11-12 Vs. And then he went from the demonstrated, exposed and proved the theme, And within the same color tone and atmosphere as that indicated in his text, he preached in a "still small voice" which thundered into the hearts of the hearers—they answered it with tears of rightous joy. He actually—visually pulled Elijah from his hiding beneath the Juniper Tree—everything. We saw him do it! The one thousand people present saw him likewise. If you are present next Sunday at the Big Rally and COME EARLY, he will show you "Elijah casting his mantle upon Elisha." Honestly, he will show you. If your heart is right, five thousand dollars will probably be laid upon the table. Next Sunday morning and afternoon will be great services. The choir with Miss Magnolia N. Lewis in obligato and a great spiritual number was a distinct feature of the 19th-century musical is also where in this issue. Metropolitan Community Center The sermon Sunday morning by the pastor at M. C. C. was directly responsible for the strong demonstration within the congregation—the musical numbers accelerated this climax. The male contingent was not left entirely untouched, and upon the whole the sermon easily demonstrated the ability of the pastor to "kill two birds" whilst apparently throwing at one. These unique, yet, perfectly well ordered sermons are the motive which with the musical department, has increased the congregation to its enormous proportions. Next Sunday morning the announcement of a special sermon means that Wendell's, Hig. School will be packed and jammed by 10:45. Try it at 11 and see!! Walter's A. M. E. Zion Church W. A. Blackwell, D. D., Pastor The sermon delivered at Walter's A. M. E. Zion Church Sunday morning was heard by a full auditorium and balcony as usual. The pastor arose with the Spirit upon him. The audience already prepared by the singing of the choir, easily responded to the call of his message. In short Walter's was on fire Sunday morning and even ning. The constructive work being carried on at Walter's will be a revelation when untold to public view. The public is invited to be present Sunday, "Going to the Party" next Sunday at 3 p. m.—Samuel MacAl pine. BOOK REVIEW MARY WHITE Chairman of the Board of Dire for the Advancement By George Madden Martin. Publ with postage $1.85. I read recently in a southern paper upon recent literature written by N. as the work of a colored novelist. My read a mistake and without fear (feel that I have sufficiently penetrated into able to denitr it not as an outside By George Madden Martin. Published by D. Appleton & Co. Price $1.75, with postage $1.85. I read recently in a southern paper of a college professor who in lecturing upon recent literature, written by Negroes, placed my novel, "The Shadow," as the work of a colored novelist. My ambition as an author makes me never to read a mistake like this without feeling deeply complimented. It must show that I have sufficiently penetrated into the thought life of the Negro race to be able to depict it, not as an outsider, but as one with understanding. George Madden Martin, who by the way is a woman, will never be mistaken as to her race. When she writes of "The Children of the Mist" she is an outsider, looking at her characters sympathetically, tenderly, but as a superior who tries to make allowance for an interior being. For myself, I am weary of this attitude whether it refer to white or black, rich or poor. Why should the person who has been born into comfort and has bad every advantage feel superior to one who has been born without opportunity for education, for comfort, for health of mind or body? These beautifully aristocratic owners of slaves whom George Madden Martin depicts so lovingly scarcely touched life compared with the ragged, untutored blacks who toiled to keep their owners in idleness. And no amount of tender sympathy can make the writer with the psychology of the slave owner identify herself with the inner life of those whom she tries to describe. After this introduction I am ready to talk about a really remarkable book once you accept its viewpoint. For George Madden Martin is an accomplished story teller who co-ligned us with her tales of "Emmy Lou" and who, when she comes to tell or "The Children in the Mist" describes some unusual and vivid incidents. The first story, "The Flight," is the best in the book. Sherman is marching to the sea, burning houses behind him, and you see Miss Susan Begue, owner of Scuppernong Hall, standing outside of her burning home, with two young girl nieces, and five live, old Manm Harriet, brought from Africa, her daughter and three of the boys, grandchildren. They must travel that night fifteen miles to Cinnamong Court House, the roads are full of troops and dangerous. Leaving their burning home behind them the eight journey on together. At once the old Negro takes the lead. It is she who is the protector of them all. And how size guides them through the swamp is one of the most wonderful slave stories that has ever been written of the South. You thrill when you find Miss Begue, the mistress, coming for the first time upon the slave's secret the hard, firm foot path traversing to the white men, the impenetrable swamp. "A continuous narrow ribbon stretching ahead; winding in and out across marches, through moss and around lagoons, linking hunnock to island and island to some unthrust of solid tooting in a sea of quacking bog. One grasped that this winding ribbon was a road. * * * a work of careful and painstaking construction, a cordnrow foundation of felled trees, built upon with the turfy sods of marsh grass, filled in and surfaced with bogs mud and clay, now hard and dry with time and usage." Here slaves had travelled from plantation to plantation, and here runaways have been lost to their owners and sometimes have survived for years. And here one of Miss Begue's own slaves, who fled from her plantation, helps her and the two young girls. St. Catherine's A. M. E. Zion Church R. R. A. Heedricks, Pastor The sermon Sunday evening by the presiding elder. Rev. W. T. Beck, was strongly spiritual and encouraging. The church is about to enter its anniversary period and Bishop A. J. Carey and other prominent speakers from out of the city will speak during the period. See the date beginning 29th instant until April. The club editor of The Whip addressed the choir and congregation. This choir holds one soprano—equal to any of like group. People's Interdenominational Church 1. M. C. A. Assembly Rooms, 38th St. and Wabash Ave. Rev. Thomas E. Roach, Pastor. Service: 11:00 a. m., sermon. 8:00 p. m., discourse. Liberty Baptist Church Please allow me space in your most widely circulated and much read paper to say that Liberty Baptist Church, 27th and Dearborn streets, Rev. D. W. Bowen, pastor is making a most marvellous stride having been organized about four years by Rev. D. W. Bowen, in a store front at 3002 South Dearborn street. We accumulated $10,000 and purchased the "Old Olivet Baptist Church" at 27th and Dearborn streets, and took possession September 4, 1921, at a cost of $55,000. Including donations and initiatory payments, we have succeeded in reducing it to the debt of $39,000 within six months, for which we feel very grateful indeed. Since the winter has broken our crowds are rapidly increasing, the spirit of the Lord is abiding with us, and several souls are being converted each Sunday. And our pastor is baptizing some of them nearly every week. Our pastor is preaching now as never before, and people are coming from afar to get this real soul food. We desire the cooperation of all the lovers of righteousness and Christianity and human uplift. Very respectfully, a well wiser and member - Scott Walker, deacon and trustee, 608 South 12th avenue, Maywood, DII. Pilgrim Baptist Temple Sunday was a "High Day" at Pilgrim. Dr. E. J. Watson, by request, preached his famous sermon from the text which follows: "Come out from among them and be ye separate saith the Lord." The pastor having emerged from a sick bed startled his audience by waiving all preliminaries and plunging into the heart of his discourse. He spoke with the case of a master and "our hearts were made to burn within as he talked with us by the way." The spacious tabernacle was filled to the overflow. There were many accessions. Pilgrim is one of the fastest growing churches in the world. Come to Pilgrim you are welcome. "Come out from among them and be ye separate saith the Lord."
