ANTI-KLAN SOCIETY ORGANIZED IN ARK.

The society will be formally organized, the promoters say, after the statewide primary election, Aug. 8. Applications for membership, broadcast here today, are headed, "A Declaration of Americanism." Purposes of the society are declared to be to combat "race hatred and religious bigotry," and to oppose secrecy or "inside politics." CHICAGO, SATURDAY, AUGUST 12th, 1922 GARVEY USURPS JOY RIDE WITH AUTHORITY. MARRIED WOMAN SAY CRITICS FATAL TO DOCTOR Rules Convention With Iron Hand Tho' Opposed By Executives (By Special Staff Correspondent) NEW YORK CITY, Aug. 12.—A good idea gone wrong! After careful study I find this to be the consensus of opinion among sober-minded people concerning the Garvey movement. This movement, which sprang up as an expression of growing race consciousness immediately following the war, flourished and reached its zenith in the year 1921. It is now unmistakably on the decline, in its present form, at least. The Universal Negro Improvement Association began its third annual thirty-day convention in Liberty Hall last Tuesday, preceded by an automobile parade through the principal streets of Harlem. All previous conventions were closely watered and widely press agented by white newspapers and magazines. The present convention is only attracting passing attention from the metropolitan press. Relegated to Ranks of Ministrelsy In the minds of New Yorkers the Garvey movement has taken its place among the glittering bespangled secret organizations which parade themselves in general's uniforms and disport high sounding titles periodically through Harlem streets and Sunday afternoons. Tuesday's parade was especially of this type. Garvey led the parade uniformed as a French admiral of the navy; he also wore a cocked hat tilted at a rakish angle, looking very much like a black Napoleon. A brilliant yellow plume proclaimed his rank the highest. Other dignitaries following in their automobiles were plumes like Garvey, each of a different color, however, the plumes the plummed designee rank. Members of the legion followed the ears with military precision, saluting their superiors and standing at attention like wooden soldiers. Like the Mexican army, however, there appeared to be more officers than soldiers. Garvey the Czar In the minds of the members of the organization, the present convention is of more importance than any previous one. This on account of the attacks made upon the movement both from within and without, and on account of widespread reports of wilful squandering of money. Scores of complaints have been registered concerning the arbitrary way in which Garvey administrates the affairs of the organization without reference to his legally constituted advisors, and I can say with absolute authority THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE EXECUTIVE COUNCIL ARE BITTERLY OPOSED TO 'ARVEY AS A LEADER, AND THAT THEIR OPPOSITION HAS REACHED THE POINT WHERE THEY ARE DEVISING MEANS TO RID THE ORGANIZATION OF HIM. In spite of the opposition among the executives, however, Garvey still holds the masses in his absolute control. e does this by the help of the newer worded constitution which collectively all the activities of the U. N. I. A. are "at the direction of the president-general" who is no other than Garvey. Every cent of money coming into the organization is under Garvey's control. e mu. sign the check for every cent that is spent. He can, therefore, very easily tame any rebellious officer by refraining from giving him his salary. It is charged that Garvey enters into business contracts and agreements without consulting his officers, that 'o even signs contracts in their names without ever consulting them. An embarrassing situation arose last week when William Pickens sarcastically refused a high-sounding title offered by Garvey in the name of the executive council. Two high members of the council told him that he had refused the offer of the title to Pickens until he had refused it. The Ku Klux Klan episode is another example of the same situation. According to members of the council, whose decisions legally bind Garvey's actions, he had no authority from them to treat in any way with the klux. And they are (Continued on page 3.) Angry Husband Comes Upon Couple And Opens Fire GREENVILLE- Tenn., Aug. 12—Dr. C. H. Alexander, well-known local physician, was shot and instantly killed; Mrs. Theodric Cannon, young colored woman, was seriously wounded. Samuel Briscoe, chauffeur for Dr. Alexander was also wounded when Theodric Cannon came upon a party of four in the doctor's automobile at the top of Brewn's Mountain, Monday night at 9:30 o'clock. Cannon had been informed that Dr. Alexander, his chauffeur, the Cannon woman and another girl friend had gone on a joy ride in the doctor's automobile. He procured a pistol of large calibre and went in hot pursuit. The infuriated husband came upon the party of four in a quiet sector of the country known as Brown's mountain. Without one word he pulled the bullet striking the doctor, killing him instantly. Cannon then turned the pistol on his wife and she fell seriously wounded with a bullet in her breast. As Sam Briscoe, the chauffeur, ran away he was shot in the leg. The failure of the other woman of the party to be shot was due to all of the bulls having been fired from the pistol. She is said to have fallen on her knees and begged for her life as Cannon stood curing the quartet with the yet smoking resolver clutched in his hand. Dr. Alexander recently came to Greenville to take up the practice of medicine, having come from Petersburg, Va., where he was associated with his father in practice there. He was considered one of the most brilliant and best prepared members of the profession. He was a graduate of Harvard University and finished his medical course at Meharry Medical College in 1917. During the season of 1918 at that institution he held the chair of professor of anatomy. His remains were shipped to his home at Petersburg for burial. A charge of murder was registered against Cannon and he has been released on bond. Rescues Wife From Pastor, Kills Him LOUISVILLE, Ky., Aug. '12—Leonard Perry has been held to the grand ury here charged with murdering the Rev. A. W. Thompson, pastor of the Church of the Living God. Perry declared that after leaving his home he returned unexpectedly to find the preacher wrestling with his wife. He was taken to jail, the ceiling to attract the preacher's attention, whereupon a scuffle ensued, in which the pistol was discharged and Rev. Thompson killed. MOB RIDDLES HOME OF STRIKEBREAKER ROCK HILL, S. C., Aug. 12—A party of unknown men, using pistols and shotguns, bombarded the home of Alex Dunlap, strikebreaker, at 3 o'clock this morning. Dunlap lives on Crawford highway, just beyond Clinton Institute. No one was hurt by the firing, but the rear windows of the house were shattered, while several loads of shot entered a bed in the rear room. Dunlap and his wife were sleeping in a front room and no shots were fired into this portion of the room. Dunlap has been working in the local shops o the Southern Railway since the shopmen walked out on strike. Whether the home of the negro was assaulted by strikers and strike sympathizers is not known. The police are conducting an investigation. 31895 Here is 3625 Indiana near to and connected with 3617 both in close proximity to the Young Women's Christian Association home. Last week 3617 was exposed but leaks in the administration still cause it to operate. KERLIN, MARTYR TO FREE SPEECH IN NEW JOB NEW YORK CITY, August 12—Prof. Robert T. Kerlin, whose open letter of protest addressed to the governor of Arkansas against the execution of twelve colored men convicted in connection with the Phillips County riots of October, 1919, led to his dismissal from the Virginia Military Institute, has recently accepted the headship of the Department of English at the State Normal School at West Chester, Pa. This information is contained in a letter from Prof. Kerlin to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Although himself a Southerner, Prof. Kerlin refused to remain silent at what appeared to him a great treavesty on justice and his letter uncompromisingly arraigned the governor of Arkansas, the trials of the colored men and the wholly unfair conviction of the men who, daring to protect against the share-cropping system under which they were held, were accused of plowing to "massacre" white people. This letter received widespread publicity and resulted in airing the Arkansas cases in a way that was exceedingly distasteful to the Arkansas authorities. His summary dismissal followed the publication of Mr. Kerlin's letter. LUNGMOTOR REVIVES GIRL VICTIM OF GAS Mrs. Anna May Buckner, 18, 4234 Calumet Ave. was found unconscious in the bedroom of her home Saturday night at 9:00 o'clock.

Jew Values Son At $5.00, Black Man Buys Him NEW YORK CITY, Aug. 12—Port Richmond, a borough of this city, is the scene of the first instance of the actual buying and selling of a human being since the days of slavery. George Carr, a black man, actually bought Mortimer Fox, a seven-year old white boy from Isaac Fox, his father, a jewish tailor. White neighbors began an investigation when they saw the boy playing in Carr's back yard. When questioned he produced a duly executed bill of sale from the boy's father. Upon complaint to the police, Carr was arrested and held, but the Jew disappeared. The boy told the police a pitiful story, declaring that his father beat him daily with a strap, and starved him. He said he had lived happily with the black man, however. Te boy was placed on the Hebrew Orphan Asylum. 2 KILLED, 1 INJURED IN RAID ON STILL 2 KILLED, 1 INJURED IN RAID ON STILL HUGO, Okla., Aug. 8.—When prohibition agents B. H. Pendergraft and E. G. Wiggins attempted to enter the house of Y. C. Reed, a black man who was said to have a large "moonshine" still in his house, found resistance in the form of lead when Reed fired upon them. In the fight that ensued, which lasted for several minutes, E. G. Wiggins was shot and killed, while Pendergraft was fatally wounded. The firing was heard by the neighbors who rushed to the scene and upon finding the agents in such a state broke into Reed's house where they found him dead in a pool of blood. Reed had been shot several times, one shot penetrating his heart. DEN ORIENTALS EASY PREY TO ROPERS Den Exposed Last Week Still Operates In Open Defiance In last week's issue of this paper the conditions at 3617 Indiana Ave. were laid bare to the public. Accompanying the articles was a picture which could be used as evidence before any reputable judge. Copies of the expose were sent to every Judge and public official in the city of Chicago, but not withstanding known and apprehended characters who operate this vicious diversion to to be bribed at 3617 Indiana Ave., but so at 3625. Both of these places were open this week and their paid "ropers" sat calmly and without apparent fear of the law and brazenly invited the passerby to visit their lairs of iniquity. Chinese Prove Easy Prey Upon two occasions Chinese youths, evidently students in the city, were lured by the charms of siren voiced ropers to come in and endanger their health and at the same enrich the scarlet women with a few dollars. It has also been observed that Chinese men are changing their hangouts from Twenty-second Street up to 35th and on Prairie Ave., Grand Blvd., and Indiana at the above named dens. In order that there will he po mistake in locating the place the numbers have been painted in rude mockery to deceit citizens across the face of the building, 3625. Two large cars whose license numbers have been taken are on guard each night and if characters approach who don't look "just right," signals are given to slow down. Gambling and Prostitution Syndicates It has been learned that a prostitution syndicate has secured control of most of the well known dens and that many boasts of immunity and protection have been made by their hurlings. Many citizens have expressed their indignation at the authorities permitting organized vice to get such a hold on the community. In one of the cabarets near Indiana Ave., "runners and ropers" are at work every night vigilantly seeking to boost the "trade" at their respective joints. On 39th at the corner of Elmwood Ave., the ropers operate so brazenly that decent men cross over on the other side of the vault without solicitation. It is reported that syndicates direct the activities of each and every place. The women are recruited and placed thus their paramours who are no paramours at all but white slavers of the most despicable type. Y. W. C. A. Defenceless The Young Women's Christian Association home on Indiana Ave. is powerless to defend itself from the vicious element who revel in their neighborhood. Petitions are powerless and headlamp and haplessly the vice lords rule the day. It is learned that houses of prostitution and gambling dens are locating themselves and have been located for some time on both sides and directly in front of the beautiful plants of the Chicago Decender and the Negro Associated Press. One white woman near the Defender office boldly solicits in the broad open day and avows that she owned her home and no "niggers" could stop her. One Minister on Wabash was "reached" last week and promised to destroy the effectual petition which was being drained a den near the corner on Wabash. On 32nd St., one notorious woman of French origin has temporarily laid off her twenty-two girls and has gone on her vacation. She is expected back soon and her doors will be thrown open again according to reports.

CHEROKEE, Iowa, Aug. 8.—A black man whose name could not be learned was shot and killed here today after he had withstood the fire from nearly 800 armed men for fifteen minutes. He had previously shot three guards in the Illinois Central Railroad yards and then fled to a thicket near the town where he was tracked down. 2 MOB SETS UP VICTIM'S BODY BEFORE THEATRE MACON, Ga., Aug. 12—Three wild days of terror reigned in Macon incident to the killing of a white deputy sheriff and the lynching of John Glover, according to the following story by a correspondent of the Afro-American (Baltimore). Deputy Sheriff Byrd, white, and Deputy Raley, colored, entered the pool room belonging to C. H. Doug, a local black. Napoleon colored man, who owns also a theatre and barber shop next door "to terrorize" the bad element. Byrd was killed by a bullet from Glover's gun, and George Marshall and Samuel Brooks, spectators, were killed by Raley. Glover escaped, but every train and auto leaving the city was searched. Every colored home in the city was violated in the hunt. White men on the streets too poor to shave on the streets, who ventured on the streets, and police unable to give protection, ordered colored people to stay off the streets. Colored business men were ordered out of the block where the shooting occurred, and it took twenty policemen to keep mobs from firing Douglas' building. A hundred suspects were arrested, some of them as the police say, "for their own safety." Every business place was closed before dark. When Glover was finally captured near the city line, a mob of three hundred whites quickly took him from officers and shot him to death. His body was partially burned and then the clothing was removed with pen knives. Members of the mob mutilated the naked limbs and face, then carried the bleeding corpse to town where 7,000 persons congregated to view it. The police dropped the body from front of Henri's place and left. Officers say that Glover when arrested, begged the police: "Kill me now; don't take me back to Macon." While threats had been made against the lives of several well known colored people late today, the police are trying to avert further trouble. There were two colored spotters from the sheriff's office in the same car with Glover, trying to get him to Atlanta, where Macon officers were waiting for him. Men of all ages jammed their way into Broadway during the heart of the excitement and those that reached the body of Glover fought for souvenirs. During the excitement the body was hurled against a billboard at the entrance to colorful theatre until the remains half unrigh until the police rushed in and carried it away to Forsyth, Ga. for an inquest. The jury declared Glover came to his death at the hands of parties unknown. The Court has fixed August 29 as the date of an investigation by the Grand Jury. It is believed that no one will be punished. Frankfort, Ky. Mrs. Susie Bocclair has returned home from Chicago, Ill.

BRYANT, Supreme Commander GARVEY USURPS AUTHORITY, SAY CRITICS bitter over the fact that the entire movement must bear the onus of Garvey's unauthorized actions. The same thing seems to be true in the matter of Garvey's recent purchase of a printing plant. **Impeaches Obstructor** Determined not to be hampered by obstructors, one of the first steps to be taken by the convention was the impeachment of Dr. J. D. Gibson, surgeon-general. Gibson declares that Garvey impeded him because he (Garvey) learned that Gibson had prepared a resolution to be voted on at the convention curtailing Garvey's power. Garvey beat him to it. After a trial lasting throughout an entire day, the matter came to a vote. Gibson's counsel asked for a secret ballot. Garvey ordered a standing vote. Members on the floor, afraid to incur the "czar's" displeasure, voted almost unanimously for impeachment. US SIGNIFICANT HOWEVER, THAT THE EXECUTIVE COUNCIL VOTED ALMOST UNANIMOUSLY AGAINST IMPEACHMENT. The convention is young, however, and those who wish to save the movement predict that many startling things will occur before adjournment. African Starts Riot Following the impeachment proceedings a native African, Mokoto Manoendi held a soap box meeting on Seventh Avenue. He declared that Africans resented Garvey's usurpation of the term "Provisional President of Africa." He had about 200 bearers, as the meeting adjourned. He the crowd histories to the African was swelled to nearly 2,000. A riot finally broke out, the soap box orator was dethroned and took refuge in a taxicab. The riots continued their fight, however, and surged up and down Seventh Avenue until police reserves routed them with drawn clubs. more were completed before December 31, 1921. From July 1, 1921, to June 30, 1922, 40 more Rosenwald schools had been completed. In short, 89 new Negro rural schools had been built within two years. These schools are comfortable, sanitary, well-equipped buildings. Some 2000 colored teachers in South Carolina have been receiving training for their work in 10 summer schools, including the school at Bettis Academy, which is directed by Professor Henry P. Butler, who like his co-workers is putting his life unreservedly into his work of serving the children of a needy race.

Manning admitted complicity in the murders, but stoutly maintained that he slew his victims to save. his own life, According to Georgia law, if he had convinced the jury that he took another life to save his own, he would have gone free, Evidently’ the Jury was not convinced. ‘The jury retired at 11:08 ofclock and returned a verdict exactly two hours Tater. The second conviction of Manning gloses forever the record of the now famous “murder farm" killings, John Williams, white, owner of the farm in Jasper county, Ga. found it convene ent to end the lives of obstreperous farm hands he was holding in peonage, He used Manning as his executioner. The record shows that 11 men met their death on the farm. Some were chopped to pieres, parts being placed in a sack and dropped ina. river Others were chained torether, weighted with rocks, and thrown into the water.

No single inet- dent has occurred in the past ten years that means so much to the Citizens Of this state as does this an- houncement, For it is truly another emancipation to the race, In past years colored people have been treated very unfairly by most white insurance Companies. Only certain kinds of policies are ever offered to colored people, the benefits of old Tine Ife insurance being denied to colored people, So now with the entrance of the Liberty Life Insur- ance Company every benefit known to big substantial insurance com- panies will be ours, “It is very doubtful if the citizens of our race will realize for some years just how important this en- trauce into Michigan is.” Mr. Birney Ws Smith, prominent business man of Detroit, gave out the following statement wlien the news reached his city: “The authorizing of the Liberty Life Insurance Company to write policies in Michigan means much to the people of this state, “Insurance companies are known to be one of the greatest factors in our economic systent because of the vast amount of wealth which they naturally concentrate for proper dis tribution, so. in a general, way the importance of its success is too far reaching for us to conceive of at this time, “Ot course the Liberty Life In- surance Company made good when it qualified in Illinois in August of last year, but the bringing of the activities of the company to our own doors here at the beginning, em- ployment will be given to a dozen Of more persons as agents: and of- fice help has removed the last veatize of doubt from the minds of many, who due to. inexperience in financial affairs could ot realize that the Loberty Life Company has been a going concern for a year, “This is the first colored company having the privilege of offering to the people of this state old line legal reserve" insurance and it is grati- fying to know that our people will be offered insurance from its proper point, namely, the benefit of the policy holder, “Heretofore they have been lim- ited as to the amount and the nature of their insurance as well as having to pay the penalty of being colored by rated upwards while now they can sectire policies from $500.00 to $10,000.00 either in the straight life, the paid. up life or the endowment, All participating: without limitation or reference to the fact that they are colored. “The people of Michigan con- tributed much in briaging this com- any to sticcess, but the reward will e‘geeat for them, and tere will be further opportunity both. in buying stock and taking out policies to as- sist in making this the greatest in- stitution in the Negro financial world,” Read the Whip for Sport News * ’ What one of Chicago’s foremost Pastors think of the Chicago Realty Associati Get Wise—Save Your Money—Get Cheaper Rents Become Part Owner in Valuable Property | Learn What $10.00 Will Do ———oe F LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION REV.

VISIT OUR LABORATORY AND HAVE A DEMONSTRATION. Covered by De Silva and Wm. Hall Thomas Business Review Edited by Ettinger F. Smith. Business Better This Year Than In Summer of 1921 Admitting the facts that hot weather is no incentive to business, that a large percentage of the business offices are partially deserted by vacationists, that labor troubles still hold the center of the stage in the industrial world, the truth still stands that business generally is, much better now than it was at this time last year. This is true virtually in all lines of business. The consistent carrying out of the extensive building program here in Chicago has a strengthening effect upon the general business situation, and is an unmistakable indication of the trend of the time. Apartment houses are going up and more are being planned for by builders, with the view of taking care of the constant influx of people and the prevention of a repetition of the shortage of homes that resulted not so long ago in the skrovelocking of rentals. Merchants Are Optimistic Retailers report a fair business in seasonable goods. Collections are mighty slow. An almost universal comment by manufacturers and wholesalers is that business has approached more nearly to normal during the past six weeks than at any time since the war. Sweet-Toothed Africans Fond of Condensed Milk A meal of bread and condensed milk might please the small boy occasionally, but would he care for it as a regular diet? However, that is what grownups have every day in Senegal, for their noon meal when at work away from their families, says Consul W. J. Yerby, Dakar, in a report to the Department of Commerce. The natives of Senegal are very fond of sweets, and as most candy is usually too expensive for them to purchase they consume large quantities of lump and cube sugar, and sweetened condensed milk. Tea biscuits are also highly refilled, he says. The consul thinks that if American corn syrup and molasses were obtainable they would be very acceptable, in his opinion such an addition would in part relish and flavor to the present restricted condensed milk menu. Inexpensive candies, such as are sold in the five and ten-cent stores, ginger snaps, and crackers, are the most popular, etc., the consul thinks would be a cause of much rejoicing among the dusk laborers. The consul's home is in Chicago. IMPROVEMENT NOTED "Our business has improved every month this year and prospects look brighter for the future," says William Terrell, manager of The Chicago Realty Association. It is a noteworthy fact that there is an ever-increasing bond of sympathetic understanding between real estate men and the lay public in this territory. The company is well known throughout this city and the reported improvement in business in its line is but another indication that the period of depression is nearing its end. Its officers are men of high standing and the confidence reposed in them has brought to the concern a liberal patronage from those requiring homes and buildings. They are in position to take care of business in any volume. Their office is located at 3539 S. State Street.

While at a society function recently Nosey observed a vampish, modish and apparently young thing as she flitted about with first this young man and then the next. Like a butterfly she settled at the side of the grizzled old Nosey and blinked her eyes in a fascinating Theda Barish manner that almost made the hardened heart of Nosey skip its regular beat. Then Nosey scrutinized her face and saw the tell-tale marks of Father Time and when he heard her name, he recognized her as "The Century Plant" of a certain southern city. Old enough to be even Old Nosey's grandmother, she still has "her hat in the ring" and is unmarried but persistently hopeful. A Parisian doctor helped her face by the skillful use of the knife, and cosmetics have done the rest. Wisecareful that she is, she will not tell the doctor's name. Nosey breathed a prayer for the young man she is engaged to wed and sighed. "Time will tell, and Oh, what a story it will tell." . . . ON THE BOULEVARD Michigan. In the loop. A large black man in a handsome machine with a fair-haired, blue-eyed, pink- skinned little thing at his side. A blow-out and the car is surrounded by a gaping crowd who eye the study in black and white. Sweat appears on the receding brow of the man. Fear springs into the eyes of the young thing of pink and white. Then the girl said, "James, meet mother and me at the hotel after you have fixed the tire." She departed. The crowd moved on. The sweat passed from the man's face and a smile curled on his lips as he muttered. "My who surely has pleasant sense." . . . SOCIETY IS ALL wrought up over the threatened scandal which is liable to break at any minute since that "famous couple" whose actions have led to a separation. Each threatens to expose the actions of the other and whereas for a time they permitted each other to go his separate way, they should be entirely separate and distinct. Each wants the other to bear the burden of the wrongdoing. A doctor, a lawyer, five business men, and several school teachers are on the list as eligible for co-respondents as they have all figured in the affairs of one or the other of this "famous couple." Until the storm breaks in court none will be able to cut and the things which were accepted once can easily become passe when the law takes its course. . . . EVERYBODY IS wondering why the little visiting school teacher who was stopping with one of Chicago's "finest and oldest" families suddenly took her departure from her home. Nosey saw her at the station with traumatized face and without the austere and aged daughter of that first family who loved her so fondly and treated her so royally when the pretty little girl first arrived. Nosey asked the little thing what was all the row about and why the sudden exit. Her hips were sealed, but Nosey gathered that the sweet young thing by her very youth and beauty showed up the time honored and self-appointed societal leader to a disadvantage and drew too much attention. No, that it is very hard for a woman to do in the same house and see the guys men and there not be trouble, particularly when one is pretty and the other is of doubtful age, cold, austere, with faded beauty and a misconceived idea of her own importance. It can't be done—beacefully. *** YOU NEVER know where "summing" will take you. Nosey was doing the underworld the other night and shifted his activities to the north side. When he entered a house whose name has been kept very quiet and whose clientele has been of the "best," he was amazed to see three fair ladies gather themselves and make a hurried exit from the gorgeous salon. Nosey recognized them and was so astounded that he required more stimulant before even peering into the shock. Nosey now-khows some of the southside matrons well such whipping tales to their husbands about where they go and their club connections and perhaps also the yarns about the presents "mama and papa" sent them. It is all right unfit the crash comes and then—Oh, well, the morbid will have some good reading.

Edwoods, Vice-Principal. This institution which was founded by Miss Jennie Dean, a colored woman, has grown from a one-room school to include 14 buildings and 191 acres of land. Seven trades, agriculture and academic subjects, beginning at the fifth grade and continuing through a four year high school course, constitute the outstanding features of "Mamassas." Among the sources of support are the Jeans Fund, Slater Fund, General Education Board and the Rosenwald Foundation. Mr. Rosenwald has contributed $1000 per year for nine consecutive years. The drive here is the third of its kind which has been promoted this year. In New York the famous "Shuffle Along Company" staged a benefit performance on March the fifth. In Chicago, the motion picture houses and their audiences have contributed the greatest active aid to this endeavor to maintain a school for colored youth where it is greatly needed. Prince L. Edwoods, Vice-Principal, has given a series of twenty-one illustrated talks in eight theatres with slides actually showing buildings, etc. of the school. After the appeal for help, a group of young ladies have lifted offerings and the managers have supervised the counting to assure the public of the good intentions of the Manassas representative. The following offers have been opened doors, namely, Monogram, Lincoln, Vendome, Owl, States, Phoenix, Atlas, and Pickford. Mr. Edward D. Howe is Principal. THE MONOGRAM Chas.

SUNSET 315-317 East 2 —Presents A Snappy Dazzling A Letter From Herbert Byron Mr. Dave Peyton! Dear Sir— In order that yourself and the general public may be thoroughly acquainted with facts concerning the engagement of "Breezy Times" at The Avenue Theatre, week of July 24th, will you kindly permit me space in your valuable Journal to vindicate myself and defend my reputation with the theatrical public. In the presence of Messrs. Clarence E. Muse, S. A. Brusaux and A. E. Patterson, the following agreement was reached, decided upon and signed. I was to furnish book, lyrics and music to "Breezy Times", and A. E. Patterson guaranteed to pay salaries of all actors engaged in "Breezy Times." For the above mentioned comedy I have only received 20 per cent of my original guarantee. Out of a weekly ross of $1,098.47, only about $300 could be accounted for in cash money on Sunday night; of this amount I was to receive $200, but I donated the entire sum to be divided among the performers who had so faithfully remained with the show. According to te statement made by Mrs. A. E. Patterson in the presence of Mr. Patterson, the assembled cast and myself that SHE had furnished the money to finance the proposition and not Mr. Patterson. I arrive at the conclusion that this is why the "gentleman en's agreement on the part of Mr. A. E. Pgatterson was broken, and as Mrs. A. E. Patterson stated that she did not propose to pay out another cent, this accounts for the actors salaries not being paid as guaranteed by Mr. Patterson. "Breezy Times" was a success both financially and artistically, as the to- tal receipts were sufficient to pay off all contracted agreements, but not sufficient to pay off the back indebtedness of three or four weeks standing before the advent of "Breezy Times". I have signed statementes, contract and witnesses to prove all statements made herein. Very truly yours HERBERT H. BYRON.

WITH DUE REGARD FOR RIGHT, WITH PURITY OF MOTIVE IN OUR EXPRESSION, WITH CONSCIENTOUS COMPASSION FOR STRICKEN HUMANITY, WITH UNSTINTED CREDIT TO THOSE WHO MERIT, WITH TRUTH AS OUR GUIDE POST AND LOVE AS OUR INSPIRATION, WE HAVE COMMITTED OURSELVES TO THE WORLD OF JOURNALISM. WE HAVE DEDICATED OURSELVES TO PUBLIC SERVICE. SCARLET WOMEN SCARLET WOMEN When the unfortunate women of our race are arraigned in the Morals Courts of the large cities of America they meet with the stern glare of the judge, the professional cupidity of the lawyer and always the cold shoulder from the public at large. Like contagious creatures of evil they are avoided and above the din of court procedure the inaudible cry of "no room for the leper" permeates the murky atmosphere. It is regretted that the fallen women of the black race who leave the Morals Court with the stain of guilt upon their shifting gaze are met with no "good samaritan," no compassion or mercy from salvation agencies and into the bleak and drab world she drifts, facing the quick sands and shoals of ultimate destruction while we look on and point the finger of scorn. When the treatment accorded the white woman with the scarlet history is compared to that of her sister with the dusky skin, we are embarrassed and chagrined and it seems that something is fundamentally wrong with our system of conduct. The white girl that falls from grace is met in the Morals Court by kind-hearted workers from religious organizations and sympathetic representatives from uplift societies who take the poor girl into their confidence and with their arms about her lead her from the dreadful room into environments where she is given a new lease on life and receives a new start and, if she returns to her former life of iniquity, it is not because she didn't have a chance and not because "she came unto her own and her own received her not." Our girls receive no such encouragement; for them there is no "balm in Gilead." In Chicago the Morals Court is almost every day thronged and congested with offending and fallen women of the black race. In that court can be seen the leering, curious faces of the "stone throwers" of the same race, but no mercy is at hand unless it comes from the paid court workers or from sympathetic judges who strain their judicial capacity to help a disheartened and discouraged woman; but, where are the Church Workers? Where are the representatives of the uplift organizations? It is possible for these organizations to play a great part in purifying their community by direct contact with the Magdalenes of Chicago. These women belong to us; it is our duty to help them and turn them from paths which lead to disgrace and ruin. We need Christian workers in the Morals Court and cleansing influences to rid scarlet women of their stains.

It is a hard thing to find fun in tragedy and crime, and only the most wonderful people in the world can reduce propositions which rob them of manhood rights into equations of absurdity, but that is just what the black people in America are doing to the white man's prejudice. Recently a black comedian was relating anecdotes of the South; his audience was white, but he made it hilarious with paroxysms of laughter. The black comedian relates how he was almost lynched in Georgia because he did not tip his hat to a white mule that passed him in the street; the funny man further related how he was kicked out of a cigar store in Texas because he failed to ask for "Mister" Prince Albert tobacco. He was reminded that Prince Albert was a white man. Prejudice in some instances is so ridiculous that it is really humorous, but the seriousness with which this prejudice makes itself felt takes all of the sting out of the joke and only people with wonderful self-composure can get a laugh out of it and see the absurdity. The black man is really a wonderful creature. He can sing in the hour of need and starvation, smile in the face of death and poke fun at those who seek to humiliate him. History, however does record how a race of jesters and jokers ever surmounted their barriers, yet their philosophy of life certainly makes it more bearable. EQUALITY Privation and need is certainly an equalizing force; it was put to a test in Chicago during the recent car strike. During those vexing days when transportation was all balled-up proud Anglo-Saxons were quite willing to crowd themselves pell mell into the rusty and make-shift conveyances of any man who would accommodate them. It didn't make any difference what the color of his skin was or what his nationality or religion—the idea was getting where they wanted to go. No talk about social equality was heard, but good naturedly everybody mingled and for a few days the citizens of Chicago were all brothers and members of the good old human family. The black men who made small fortunes with their jitney busses were color blind and one man's silver coin was as good as another and for once in life the black man was made to feel that he was part and parcel of the great commonwealth of Illinois. When these things are considered under the unrefracted light of common sense it can be clearly seen that race haughtiness and supercilious pride is just a lot of empty and vapid foolishness. RIL HEALTH HINTS The blood is one of the most important factors in the development of all human individuals. It we note for a moment what the blood does for the human system there will be no doubt in immediately coming to this conclusion. First—The life of every tissue or cell in the body is dependent upon the blood for its food or nourishment. Second—It not only carries food to each body cell, but carries away the waste products or poisons formed by these cells. Third—The blood also distributes various essential products of glands of internal secretion to other organs of the body, thereby furnishing the required chemical or physical stimulus that is necessary for the maintenance of the normal process of human life. of the most important factors in it.

Th Wassermann Blood Test One of the greatest steps in the advance of modern medicine was the discovery of the Wassermann blood test for syphilis. This test has opened the eye of the medical profession and the public health authorities to the prevalence of this disease. Many cases of sickness that were heretofore unsolved have been properly diagnosed by the proper application of this test along with the clinical findings. The blood test has shown that syphilis is not a disease limited to the prostitutes, who ordinarily are accused of being $90\%$ syphilic and the Negroes who are accused of being $50\%$ syphilic, but the white races and the "higher ups" are victims of this disease, as syphilis is no respector of persons. It shows up in people who seemingly have lived a straight life and the party in question often wonders how it was acquired. The thing to worry about is how to get rid of it.

UNDER THE LASH OF WHIP LASH OF THE HIP UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP A column of constructive criticism of men and measures in the hope of correcting errors and evils. Marcus Garvey's convention in New York is disgusting the black people of this country, that is, those who are gifted with common sense and ordinary intelligence. When Garvey first announced his program and platform a few years ago we were much impressed, but after close scrutiny we have become disgusted and alarmed. We have discovered that Garvey has been engaged in "impeaching some of his officers lately, and that many stormy scenes have swept through his convention hall. We learn that Garvey does not advocate social equality, that he does not understand the needs of American black people, that he has capitalized ignorance and fanaticism, that he plays upon the primitive weaknesses of his people by the use of bright regalia and high-sounding titles and fantastic tales told of Africa, we have even learned that he sought to treat with the Ku Klux Klan. He is a glutton for notoriety and publicity. We have arrived to the conclusion that Garvey, like Moton, is a menace to the welfare of his people. After all we have got to fight out our problem here in America and fight like men. Garvey can do better in Africa probably than we could. In the fight against vice in Chicago it is encouraging to learn that denizens of the underworld are ready and willing to expose the villainy of the system and the administration that makes it possible. "It is a shame, it is a shame" is heard from hardened men of the world. Chicago is more wide open than ever before in its history is also heard from old timers. We have received letters of commendation from people of all classes. It is still hoped that our ministers will join in with us. It is advisable that they should or take up the fight themselves, too, but their present apathy puts them in bad light.

Recently the inside is decorated, and now the painter has just completed the painting of the outside all around, which is a pleasing and bright coat of pure white; this brightens up the whole community. Much credit is due Dr. Bennett for his zeal and push. The services of the church are just as great as ever. Last Sunday the pastor preached two great sermons. There were 120 people next Monday evening at 8:30 o'clock. THE EPSILON. THE BLOOD Snappy Thoughts By E. F. S. A certain daily paper here carried the headline, "Coal Situation Here Not Bad." The same headline in January will read mighty good. We wonder what has become of the good old-fashioned mother who shooed the young men off the front porch at 11 p. m.? An aged black man in Savannah Ga., 118 years of age, says that his longevity is due to hard work. If that's the real truth, no wonder there are so few centenarians. Most of the preliminaries to marriage are made in the porch swing. When a certain Rev. (?) told us recently that his face was his fortune, we thought to ourselves that he had better call a meeting of his creditors. A hint to our "Southern Migrants." Freedom is a blessing to those people who know how to use it. When a gal isn't built to be cute, she shouldn't try to be. What we never had we never miss. We as men hope to reach the point where we won't feel cheap when we decline the barber's invitation to have a massage. Who can remember those good old days when youngsters asked their parents' consent before going out nights? One thing in favor of elections is that we learn so much more about people that we never knew (?) before. With all the advertising Hon. (?) Marcus Garvey has had from his various escapades, he should be able to command a fight contract with some movie outfit. The man who will do as much today as he is going to do tomorrow will get something done. There are a lot of foolish yokes in this world, exclusive of those who bet against the "American Giants." The only way to win with cards is to quit while you are winning. Some men seem to have cash to pay for everything except their debts. How to "get by" seems to be the chief concern of the average man. Dice game ends when one is cut—Headline. They generally end when some-body's broke. Mother's vacation is half gone and so is father's pocketbook. --- Liberty Life Truths 8 On August 15, 1922, The Million Dollar Anniversary Campaign will close. "Get a Liberty Life Policy and be Liberated." LIBERTY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY THIS WEEK IN HISTORY THESE words are printed on an artistically decorated card, enclosed in a finely carved frame which hangs behind President Gillespie's desk. These words cannot escape your attention as you enter the office of the first man of the Company. They greet you at once. Then you glance over the splendid evidence of achievement that expresses itself abundantly in all characteristics of the Home Office and realize the truthfulness of these words: "No obstacle is great enough to stop the man who believes absolutely in himself and his proposition." Liberty Life Insurance Company is a living example of this truth; the fact that the company has accomplished so much in such a short space of time, is a tribute to the man, Frank L. Gillespie, founder and president. In speaking of the achievements of our president and founder, we are reminded of the following poem: "The Will of Man," written by a prominent English business man: "A strong man dreams a dream, And straightway all his force of heart and brain, And all the steadfast purpose of his life— Yea, all the power of his super-self, In one united effort, grip With grim and giant strength that fleeting dream And hold it fast. So will, that mystic thing that moves the world, That force divine on which all nature rests, Fountain of purpose, architect of life, Seizes the vision, moulding into stone Those evanescent phantoms of the mind. The lofty walls, the portal, gleaming spire And deep foundation sunk in living rock— All these are but the dream-stuff of the mind Made manifest by Will." 35TH ST. AT GRAND BOULEVARD CHICAGO, ILL.
